Lao Qi entered the inn, Lao Jiu, Lao Fifteen and a small one were waiting outside. They were waiting under the wall outside the inn, watching the people coming and going on the street.
Xiao Hei didn't like waiting in busy places, so he turned around and said, "I'm going to see Uncle Qi."
After saying that, he wanted to run towards the door of the inn, but Mu Aotie held him down in time.
Yu Qing also immediately pointed at his head and feet and lectured him, "Where are you going? Do you know what it means to look down on others? With a beggar like you, believe it or not, you will be kicked out if you go in?"
"Who dares!" Xiao Hei raised the stick in his hand, "I'll beat him!"
"Aren't you short-sighted?" Yu Qingzhao slapped him on the back of the head, then pointed and warned, "Listen up, this is not Youjiao Port. People won't give you face if something goes wrong, and your father can't save you. Here The people here will beat you to death directly, and then the monsters here will eat you directly."
The little black pestle was on the ground, looking like I wasn't afraid.
But Yu Qing had to discipline him. He thought that Wu Hei would show up when he got here, and he would be relieved if he just watched a little and handed it over to Wu Hei. But now it seems that he can't even worry about it. He really wants to keep this mind from knowing. If the little guy who follows the rules gets into trouble, he will fall into the trap.
While the two elders were giving the younger one a good talk, Nanzhu also came out of the inn door with great pride, followed by the inn's waiters who nodded and bowed to see him off.
After Nanzhu came back here, he didn't say hello to Yu Qing and the others. He walked past them as if he didn't recognize them. The three of them were speechless.
When he reached the position where he could no longer see the entrance of the inn, Nanzhu turned around and waved to the three of them, indicating to leave.
After the three of them walked over quickly, Yu Qing naturally asked: "What do you mean? Why are you pretending not to know us? Are you afraid that we will embarrass you?"
Nanzhu didn't hide it, "Since you let me go, I also want to show my face, okay? Look at the three of you, one has such a vulgar mustache on his mouth, one looks like a dog that doesn't eat shit, and the other goes barefoot. Beggar, if people see me hanging out with you, can I look like a rich man?"
Yu and Mu were choked and speechless. They felt like they were confused. They felt the sadness of having no money. It was just that they didn't dare to go where rich people went. When people are poor, they even look down on their own people.
"Tsk!" Yu Qing looked disdainful and turned away, "Then we won't hinder you. Once you find a place to live, you pay for it yourself."
Mu Aotie also immediately pulled Xiao Hei away.
"Hey, look at you, why can't you take a joke?" Nanzhu immediately chased after him and changed his tune, "I'll listen to you, the fifteenth old man, and go in and pretend to be a rich man. You didn't look at me. How respectful are you to me? In this place, I can't let people see that I'm fooling them, for fear that they will get angry and beat us up."
Yu Qing also knew that he couldn't get rid of him, so he said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense and tell me directly, what is the market for an inn of this level?"
Nanzhu sighed: "I told you to leave, what else could it be? It must be something we can't afford to live in. The cheapest room costs eight thousand taels of silver a day, but the environment and accommodation conditions inside are definitely... Okay. There is also safety, which is absolutely guaranteed. People directly pointed out that one of the masters behind it is a prominent figure in Qianliu Mountain.
I also inquired about it, and finally figured it out. This place is really different from Youjiao Port. Unlike the people from Youya, they don’t occupy the land in Youjiao Port. Here, most of the prominent people in Qianliu Mountain are engaged in profitable business in Haishi.
Put it this way, do you think the houses in this sea market are basically crowded? There are also some houses and shops that are not crowded and look different. The real owners behind them are basically well-known figures in Qianliu Mountain. The housing prices in Haishi are the most expensive places in the world. If you want to live in a mixed city like Haishi, To purchase such property, money alone is not enough. "
After hearing this, Yu Qing nodded silently and found that Nanzhu was still more suitable for inquiring about information than Mu Aotie.
If they can't afford it, they can only continue to look for cheaper inns, but the roads in Haishi are really messy.
I happened to hear a crisp hawking sound and met a half-monster carrying a bag selling hand-drawn maps of the mirage.
She is a young succubus, obviously a fox demon, with a pair of fox ears that have not faded, a pretty face, fair skin, and a youthful and energetic air.
The hand-drawn map cost 500 taels per copy, which was a bit expensive, but considering that it would be needed later, Yu Qing bit the bullet and bought one.
Of course, I also asked for directions and if there were any cheaper inns nearby.
When she heard that she was looking for a cheap inn, the banshee's bright eyes flashed, and she looked at Xiao Hei's bare feet, and immediately said enthusiastically: "Yes, come, I will show you the way."
Oh, I also met a kind person! The three brothers looked at each other and felt that the five hundred taels were worth it.
Everyone is like this, no matter rich or poor, as long as the service is in place, they will feel that it is worth the money.
It was good to have someone to lead the way, so a few people immediately followed her. Xiao Hei kept staring at the banshee's ears curiously.
Soon, the banshee led them to find an inn nearby, which seemed to be far inferior to the previous one.
Several people entered the inn and asked about the room price, but the banshee huddled outside and did not go in. She seemed not to want the guys inside the inn to see her, so she did not leave and waited outside.
After a while, three children and one child came out, obviously not planning to live here.
In fact, the housing prices here are still a bit difficult for them to accept. The most common room costs 3,000 taels per room. According to the rules of the inn, the four of them need two rooms, which means that the accommodation alone will cost 6,000 taels per day. Ten days would cost 60,000 taels.
At this price, they really can't afford it. They don't know how long they will live here, so they must save money.
Of course, this inn provides bunks, the kind with ten bunks in a room. Calculated per person, one thousand taels per person per day, which is cheaper than living in a single room, but there is no privacy, but it is still too expensive for them. .
In addition, the money is not in vain. The inn has made it clear that there are people behind them in Qianliu Mountain. As long as they are guests of their inn, if they encounter minor trouble in Haishi, the inn will come forward to help solve it. If you encounter big trouble, if necessary, the inn can also help contact someone who can solve the problem. As for the cost, you can only decide on it yourself.
Yu Qing and others were a little surprised to see the banshee still waiting for them outside.
The banshee took the initiative to come over and said in a strange tone: "What's wrong? Is the inn not to your liking?"
Yu Qing chuckled, "The house price is too expensive, and we are short of money."
Anyway, this banshee is just a street vendor, and she is not a rich person at first glance. She is of a similar class, so she doesn't mince words, unlike before when Nanzhu pretended to be a rich person.
The banshee made a sound to show her understanding, and apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault, it's my fault. I'll take you to find a cheaper one."
This attitude goes without saying. The three brothers immediately felt that this banshee was pretty good. She sold them a map. If she could serve her to this extent, what else could she say?
Yu Qing was a little embarrassed and said, "I won't trouble you too much, right?"
The banshee said cheerfully: "It's okay. I'm walking around the streets anyway, so I won't delay things. By the way, how long will you stay here?"
Yu Qing said implicitly: "That's not necessarily the case."
The banshee said oh, then patted her chest, "Don't worry, I will help you find a house at a reasonable price."
The three brothers naturally thanked her and followed her.
Of course, the three brothers and sisters were also people who had fallen into a deep pit. While they were grateful, they were also secretly vigilant in their hearts.
I can't help it. I wonder if it's my own misunderstanding. I always feel that the other party is a little too enthusiastic. Did I really meet a kind person, or is Haishi's service attitude at this level?
In short, don't misunderstand other people's good intentions. You should also be wary of others, listen to their words and watch their actions.
The relationship has reached this point, and the two parties have gotten to know each other a little bit. The banshee is indeed a fox demon. Because the family conditions are not good enough, the shape of the half-demon is not perfect, and the name is Hu Youli.
The name was given to her by her mother. In Hu Youli's own words, her mother hoped that when she grew up, she would transform into a beautiful creature so that she could marry a rich man and live a life of being superior to monsters and superior to humans. Knowing that the sky was not as expected, he became a half-monster. Not only did he fail to become a beautiful creature, he also fell into disgrace.
Of course, she felt that her parents were pretty good. Although they did not give her a good family background, they gave her a place to stay in the most expensive place in the world.
The reason why it is said that her parents left it to her is because her parents both passed away and participated in a fight and were beaten to death.
The three brothers and sisters didn't know how to comfort them, and they didn't expect to tell them this when they first met.
After wandering around for a while, Hu Youli found another inn for them, but it was still the same. She hid outside and did not go in.
After a while, three adults and one child came out again.
The price was another thousand taels cheaper than before, but it was still too expensive for their spending plan.
"What, it still doesn't work?"
asked Hu Youli, who was waiting for them to come out.
Yu Qing smiled bitterly and said it all, "The normal expenses in Haishi are really ridiculously expensive. We want to see if there is the cheapest inn."
"That's it..." Hu Youli held her face in her hands and pondered, and finally raised her head and said: "The cheapest one is the kind of bunkhouse with two floors in a room, the kind that costs two to three hundred taels per bunk, even the basic There are no living facilities, there are all kinds of chaotic people, it is easy to cause conflicts, and it is not suitable for long-term stay. I don’t recommend you to live here. How about I give you a suggestion."
Nanzhu nodded, "Let's talk and listen."
Hu Youli looked at the four of them and said, "I can spare a room in my house for you to stay. You also know that I am a woman. Normally I would not let a strange man live in my house, but I see that you have a child with you." , he probably doesn’t look like a bad person. I’ll give you a separate room, three hundred taels per person, and one thousand, two hundred taels per day. You should think about it.”
