As early as when they changed careers, people from the Xiao Family Chamber of Commerce found out. There are many bandits, large and small, outside Tanzhou City. The most famous ones are the nine villages on the 18th bend of Nanshan. The most powerful of them is called Wuhu Village, and the Tantu Inn in the city is the property of Wuhu Village. , belongs to an industry colluded by officials and gangsters, specializing in trapping outsiders.
There are many similar places like this, and they are all the same routine. Bandits outside the city set up businesses in the city, setting up spies and attracting customers at the same time. It's said to be wooing, but it's actually fighting. The rules of the road are that once a fat pig enters someone's shop, other people can't fight for it.
Now that they heard that Bao Wenzhen was going to introduce him to Tantu Inn, Xiao Rui and others didn't understand that this Bao Wenzhou was from Wuhu Village. Haha, I was so sleepy that I sent a pillow to you. I was looking for you and it came to my door.
So following the trend, Fang Er and others followed Na Bao's inquiries and arrived at Tantu Inn.
It looks like the door is not small and the store is lavish. It is really not something that ordinary people can afford. Fang was very satisfied, "Not bad, in this rural place, there is an inn of this size, worthy of my status. San'er, reward me with money!"
Xiao Rui took out a tael of silver and threw it to the bag to inquire, and said in an arrogant tone: "Why don't you thank our young master quickly? In addition, go and explain that we will arrange the best house for our young master, and use the best quality for our animals." Feed, if you serve it well, you will get extra reward."
Bao asked with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. I will let the shopkeeper arrange it. You guys, please come inside. The carriage will enter the backyard through the side door, and a servant will be responsible for greeting you."
After saying that, he turned around and trotted into the inn. When he turned his back to everyone, his expression immediately dropped, and he cursed in a low voice: "What a stupid rich man. He just throws away a tael of silver every time. Haha, this is not the case." Those who robbed you of ten thousand sons and eight thousand will not be sorry for the smiling face I gave you today."
"The shopkeeper's!"
When the waiter saw it was this person, he quickly came over and whispered: "Fourth Master? Are you here? The shopkeeper is in the backyard."
"Well! Call your shopkeeper out and ask him to personally arrange the three best rooms. I have a few distinguished guests here from Chang'an who are not short of money. I must treat them well and don't neglect them."
The waiter understood this and quickly agreed, "Okay, Fourth Master, please rest first, I will make arrangements right now."
When the shopkeeper came out, Bao Dawen winked again, meaning he would be killed severely.
So, for five taels of silver per room, three rooms were arranged without food or drink.
Xiao Rui cursed in his heart, what the hell is this a black shop? My Zuixian Tower in Chang'an is not that expensive. You dare to rip off guests like this from an inn in a small city?
The second roommate said pickyly: "Bah! It looks quite big from the outside, but why are the living conditions so poor inside? Asking questions, asking questions? Is this your arrangement?"
Bao Wenwen trotted upstairs and said, "Sir, please calm down. This is Tanzhou, not as good as Chang'an City. We are a small rural place. With this kind of environment, it is already the best and most expensive in the city. There is really nothing else." .”
"How about you just buy a yard and spend the money to decorate it yourself? Otherwise, the conditions of the inn will be like this."
Fang Er said impatiently: "Bah! I am going south to visit friends. I will only stay here for one night. I have to travel tomorrow. Why do I want to buy a house? Even if I buy a house, I have to buy it from Chang'an City. I want a poor place like you. What are you doing in the house? Forget it, let’s just make it one night. What about the shopkeeper, get a good banquet on the table and put it out for me..."
Coachman Li Junxian spoke, "Master, why don't we go to a restaurant to eat? It will be lively and we can see more of the local customs."
Xiao Rui, the young man, interrupted: "Old Ma, why do you talk so much as a driver? Who is the young master? Sitting with those mud-legged people to eat together? What are you worried about?"
Coachman Li Junxian advised: "Master, third brother, you two are not out and about, you may not know the experience of the world. It is more safe to eat in the public hall. After all, we are passers-by from other places. If we encounter The bad guys are using tricks in the food... The master told the villain to protect the young master's safety."
The second room owner waved his hand impatiently and said: "Okay, okay, you have a lot to do! Use my father's chicken feathers as arrows. Okay, hurry up and pack up the place, and go to a restaurant for dinner later."
Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper and Bao Wenwen looked at each other and basically figured out that this older coachman should have experience in the world, but this young man and the boy were two sticks, so nothing would happen if they were so ostentatious. That's weird?
Bao Wenwen bowed and saluted and said: "Okay, sir, please settle down and rest for a while. If I have anything to do, I will leave first. If you need anything, the shopkeeper can find me at any time."
"Shopkeeper, please help me greet these gentlemen. Don't treat them lightly just because they are foreigners. If I find out that you are bullying students at Tantu Inn, huh, then don't do this business."
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "That's right, Fourth Master, you are busy, we must have taken care of several of you. Come on, I'll see you off."
"No, just take good care of the young master."
"Second servant, send Master off for me."
After going downstairs, Bao Wenzhen said to the waiter: "I'll keep an eye on a few of them carefully. I'll do whatever they want. They're not short of money anyway. If you want to leave, send a message home as soon as possible. In addition, try to feel it." It would be better if they can find out where they came from. It is best not to be a dragon crossing the river."
The waiter smiled and said: "Fourth Master, this is a real bargain. It can't be a dragon crossing the river! Besides, where is this? In Tanzhou City, which is far away from the emperor, even if there is a dragon crossing the river? Are we still afraid of it? Can we kill them?"
Bao Wenwen shook his head and said: "Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. Of course, the sale of this ticket must be done. I will go home and make arrangements right away. You must take care of me and don't make people suspicious."
"This group of people said they will leave on their way tomorrow, so I have to go back to the mountain overnight to arrange the arrangements. After leaving, the city will be left to you."
…
After settling down, Fang Er, Xiao Rui, and Li Junxian gathered in the room and finally breathed a sigh of relief. They no longer had to act for the time being. They were so tired.
"Hey, how's it going? Brother Xiao, Fifth Brother, how did I perform? Do I look like a playboy? Do you think those people will take action?"
How was your performance? You still have the nerve to say it? I'm acting as a servant for you, but I'm not really a servant for you. Why don't you give me orders endlessly?
"You kid, I feel like you don't act like you are acting today. Are you holding back your bad intentions and taking the opportunity to take revenge?"
Fang Er said with a sad face: "My conscience, I really acted. I learned all of it from a group of bad friends in Chang'an. I am definitely not like this myself."
Xiao Rui didn't believe it, so he turned to Li Junxian and asked, "Fifth brother, what do you think?"
Li Junxian: I don’t know how Yiai performed, but I feel like you didn’t act like one today.
