A waiter in white clothes in front of the door saw Luofan hesitate and stepped forward and said enthusiastically: "Young hero, the Jade Dragon Pond is now open to the public. There is hot water now. Do you want to go in and take a bath?"
Luofan asked: "Isn't this spring water warm all year round?"
The waiter smiled and said: "The Holy Mother's Spring water is naturally hot water all year round. However, this spring water is brought from Huafeng Mountain in the distance, and it is already cool here. It is naturally cold and comfortable in summer. But in autumn and winter, it must be burned with charcoal fire. Pour into the pool.”
When Luo Fan heard this, he realized that Plum Blossom Villa would make money. It turned out that the hot spring water was boiled.
Then he asked with a smile: "Oh, it's near the water tower, so you guys often come here to take a bath, right?"
The waiter shook his head and replied: "We are all servants, but we don't dare to take a bath here. Taking a bath here costs one penny per stick of incense, and the supply is often in short supply. We servants have a special bathhouse, but we don't dare to compete with guests for water. ah."
Luo Fan nodded: "Then you, the owner and the lady, naturally won't come here to take a bath?"
The waiter patiently replied: "Of course, there are many water channels in the villa, which can lead the spring water directly to the yard of the owner and ladies. They don't need to come to this noisy place."
Luo Fan: "I heard that your village owner is known as the 'Splitting Bear Divine Fist'. I guess it must be a hard skill practiced horizontally. Does he need to boil hot water to take a bath?"
The messenger shook his head and thought: "I don't know about this. However, it seems that the owner of the village does not use hot water when taking a bath. In winter, I even saw him practicing with his upper body naked."
Luofan took out five taels of silver and put it into the waiter's hand, and said with a smile: "I heard that the water quality of Yulong Spring is very good. I guess your lady must be so beautiful because of the good water. I took a quick look and happened to see your house. The second young lady, Li Xia, is really extraordinary in her charm. I admire her so much that I can’t let go of her. I have always wanted to find a chance to get acquainted with her. I wonder if I can tell her where the maids are, so that I can take the opportunity to show my attentiveness!"
The waiter stuffed the silver into his sleeve without leaving any trace, and whispered: "Second Miss, her maid is called Qingyao. You can't enter the ladies' backyard. You can go to the back door of the dining hall in the north. Qingyao I will go there every day to order lunch for the second lady. If you wait there, a short maid with a black mole on her right ear and a food box will appear soon. That's her. "
Luofan cupped his hands and smiled: "Thank you!"
Luofan left Jade Dragon Pond and walked north. I didn't expect that Meihua Villa was really big. It took two people to find the restaurant.
When I came to the Shansi Building, I saw a three-story wooden building, which was also majestic. There are more than twenty spacious rooms on each floor, filled with tables and chairs, and more luxuriously decorated elegant rooms, enough to accommodate thousands of people dining at the same time.
"The business at Meihua Villa is doing well. The other three Villas are famous for their cruelty and viciousness, but this place is famous for business. If the business is doing so well, and it can avoid being swallowed up by other gangs, Li Tianzheng has some skills."
Luo Fan sighed in admiration and walked around to the back door of the restaurant, waiting for the arrival of the maid Qing Yao.
After waiting for a while, a short maid carrying a food box came over.
Luofan knew what was going on. No matter where they are, most of the maids and servants come from poor families to make a living. I will spend my whole life being humble and driven by others. Those who have a bad fate will never have a bright future in their lives and let their years fade away. If you are lucky, you may be able to save some money, leave early, and live the life of an ordinary person. Therefore, money is more tempting to them than anything else!
Luofan stopped Qingyao, pretended to be stupid, and said with a smile: "Girl! Can I help you?"
This Qingyao girl is only fourteen or fifteen years old, but she is quite smart, but she has a arrogant face and a certain perverseness about her. Seeing her carrying a food box, he glared sideways and said in an unhappy tone, "Who are you! Why are you helping you? You didn't notice that I was busy!"
Luo Fan giggled and said, "Hey! Girl, I just want to ask you something. It's not in vain."
Qingyao looked at Luofan with disdain in his eyes: "How much money do you have? There are many knights asking me about things every day, and they are so bold in taking action!"
Luo Fan took out twelve large silver ingots and waved them in front of her, looking proud.
Seeing such a big silver ingot, the little girl's eyes widened and her attention was completely absorbed. She only had three coins a month and had to be beaten and scolded. These ten taels of silver are a huge fortune.
The girl stared straight at the silver ingot, unable to conceal her excitement. She looked at Luofan and asked in disbelief, "Is this really for me?"
Luo Fan put the money into her hand and said with a smile: "Take it! Take it! I'm not short of money! I just want to ask you something!"
Qingyao put the silver in her mouth and bit it, causing her tooth to hurt. He clenched his hands tightly and said happily: "Oh, it's real silver, just ask!"
Luo Fan asked with a smile: "I heard that your spring water is good! Your young lady Li Xia, did she become beautiful just by washing in this spring water?"
Qingyao rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Of course. That's not true. If I can wash it off, I will definitely become beautiful."
Luo Fan was stunned. This little girl was not old, but she was used to lying. He immediately looked unhappy and shouted: "Give me the money back. You lied to me. I already knew that your lady was not beautiful at all before. Give me the money back!"
Qingyao hugged the money tightly and looked arrogant, baring her teeth and glaring: "Who lied to you? I'm telling the truth. The money given to me is mine, and I won't give it to you!"
Luo Fan turned around and smiled: "Oh, you are telling the truth! Then I will tell you the truth, this silver is fake."
When Qingyao heard this, he immediately opened his hands and looked at it. Luo Fan reached out and snatched the money back from her hand.
The maid immediately became angry and clawed at Luofan with her teeth and claws.
Luofan raised the silver, raised one foot and pushed her away, saying, "You are dishonest. You lied to me. If I don't give this silver to you, I will give it to another girl!"
Qingyao immediately became anxious: "I'll tell you, I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything, isn't that enough?"
Luo Fan: "Then tell me, how did your young lady become beautiful?"
Qingyao muttered and said angrily: "Not a year ago, the young lady got scurvy. Some miracle doctor came and cured the young lady! The young lady is cured, and she becomes beautiful."
Luo Fan: "Have you seen that miracle doctor?"
Qingyao shook her head: "No. The miracle doctor comes every night. No one has seen him except the owner and the second lady."
Luo Fan: "After the miracle doctor treated your young lady's illness, has there been any change in her?"
Qingyao thought for a while and said: "Since she recovered from the illness, the young lady's temper seems to have gotten worse. She often beats and scolds us and throws things. However, her martial arts has also become more powerful. Even the masters in the village cannot beat her. . She hit me, and it hurt even more. Hey, why do you ask this?"
Luo Fanhan smiled and said: "I have a relative who is also sick, and I want to see a miracle doctor! By the way, you said that your young lady's temper has become worse. Then let me ask you, after your young lady recovers from the illness, should you take a bath with cold water? Or take a hot bath?"
Qingyao rolled her eyes again and said with a smile: "Of course it's hot water. How can a lady with such a delicate body use cold water."
Seeing that this girl lied again, Luo Fan finally realized that this Qingyao was very petty for her age and had a bad temper. Such a cunning girl probably wouldn't be able to ask anything. And if she is allowed to leave, she will definitely tell her about spying on Li Xia. As a result, he and Luo Tianyao would not be able to escape.
Thinking of this, Luofan looked around and saw an unguarded warehouse behind him. Seeing that there was no one around, Luofan casually poured out a thousand sorrows and stunned the girl. Then, he held her and flew into the warehouse from the window.
Entering the warehouse, I saw sacks filled with grain neatly stacked inside. The pile was several people high, with three or four rooms stacked on top of each other. Luo Fan flew up with the girl in his arms and placed her on the innermost sack. In this way, even if someone enters the warehouse, they will not be able to find that there is anyone inside. By the time this girl wakes up, it should already be tomorrow. At that time, Luo Fan was confident that he would solve the case and leave Meihua Villa.
Luofan left the dining room and came to the square in front. I happened to meet a group of people, armed with knives and swords, coming in awe!
The leader is an immortal in red, with a face as white as snow and a body as delicate as a willow. The red lips are like red, tightly closed and cold. The beautiful eyebrows are thin and horizontal, which is the most beautiful thing in the world! But when I saw her, her steps were as fast as the wind, her inner energy seemed strong, and she held a silver sword in her arms, like a beautiful woman coming with a red shadow!
But seeing the person coming, Luofan opened his eyes and said to himself: "Plum Blossom Villa, Li Xia!"
