The house was confiscated at the beginning, so I evacuated my enemy's house to escape.

Chapter 64: You can obviously steal money openly, but you are given a shabby room to live in

The wooden door of the inn was in tatters, and it seemed that a strong wind could blow it off.

Wang Datou stepped forward and knocked on the door. A uniformed postman slowly opened the door.

Wang Datou showed his token, and the postman inside the post station immediately welcomed everyone in with a smile.

"My lords, please come in——"

Meng Liang was carried by two official servants and entered the gate first. Then came Zhang Xiaowu, Zhang Chong and others.

Finally, there are the low-ranking officials and the exiled team.

Feng Jiuyan's family of three fell at the end of the exile team and walked in.

All the prisoners were standing in the large courtyard of the post station.

Feng Jiuyan took a quick look and saw that the inn was not big, and the house was divided into two parts.

The house on the east side is more regular, and some of the rooms are more elegant. The rooms on the west side look more dilapidated. Some of the windows are in disrepair, the window paper is in tatters, and the window lattice can't fall to the ground.

Wang Datou discussed with the postman before returning to the exile team and loudly announced, "There are rooms at the post station."

As soon as these words came out, the exile team instantly became a sensation.

"TNND, I can finally sleep on the bed. After two days of traveling, I almost didn't make it down to see my grandfather."

"Woohoo, I can finally have a good rest tonight."

"It's nice of you, Mr. Guan, to give us a room to stay in."

"That's great. I won't eat dinner tonight either. I'll just sleep in the dark."

"It would be best if I could take a shower."

......

The scene was so restless that if the officers hadn't drawn their swords at them, the prisoners would have rushed to occupy the room.

Wang Datou shouted loudly, "Quiet! Everyone, be quiet! There are rooms to stay in, but you also need to pay. A single room costs eight taels of silver, and can provide hot water for washing. The Datong shop for ten people is based on head count, and each person is 500 wen. Thirty The Datong Shop for people is also based on head count, 150 Wen per person. First come, first served, quantity is not much!"

As soon as these words came out, the team exploded again.

"What? A single room costs eight taels of silver? Why don't you go grab it!"

"His uncle's room is so shabby. A bunch of rotten people are lying in the same room. Why don't they vomit to death?"

"Corrupt officials! I knew these officials were evil-hearted. How could they be so kind as to give us rooms?"

There was a crowd of prisoners, spittle flying all over the sky, all angrily cursing these officials.

Feng Jiuyan, Mrs. Feng and Feng Jiuli stood aside, far away from the team to avoid being sprayed with spittle.

Don’t blame everyone for scolding, you should know that ordinary people’s household needs ten taels of silver to feed them for a year. And a room in the inn costs eight taels of silver. Who wouldn't scold his father and his mother?

Among the exiled troops, official families and merchant families accounted for half. The other half are from poor ordinary people who were exiled for committing crimes.

Even if it's an official's house, he gasps when he hears eight taels of silver for a single room.

In the past, eight taels of silver were not taken seriously by them at all.

But many people, unlike Feng Jiuyan, predicted their exile in advance and took away all their belongings. Most of the people whose homes were confiscated were raided by officers and soldiers without warning, so many people had no time to hide their money and belongings.

Even if you have possessions, you still need to carefully calculate how to spend them. Otherwise, if you don't have any money, you don't know how you died on the road to exile.

For ordinary people, eight taels of silver is already an astronomical figure.

Feng Jiuyan complained in her heart, isn't it obvious that she can just and blatantly steal everyone's money, but she has to live in a shabby house again!

They wanted to bargain with Wang Datou, but Wang Datou didn't buy it at all, and left one sentence, "If you can't live here, you can live in the stables. Those who don't live in the room will have to pay for their own dinner, and Wowotou won't have any."

As soon as the words came out, everyone had to pay the money even if they were itching with hatred.

Most people choose Datongbu, which can accommodate 30 people, and fewer people choose single rooms.

Of course Feng Jiuyan chose a private room.

He handed the money to Wang Datou, who laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes. He recognized at a glance that the ten taels of silver in his hand were the ones that Feng Jiuyan had cheated last time.

Now, it's finally back in his hands.

Feng Jiuyan rolled her eyes at Wang Datou and was very disdainful of his villainous behavior.

Hum, she will always get this money back!

Wang Datou found two taels and gave them to Feng Jiuyan, narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Miss, come with me. I will arrange a good room for you immediately."

He didn't put the silver into his pocket, but deliberately twirled the piece of silver that Feng Jiuyan had just given out with his orchid fingers and dangled it in front of her eyes, looking embarrassed and in need of a beating.

Tsk, the villain succeeds!

Feng Jiuyan flicked his fingers, and a small stone flew out from his fingertips and hit Wang Datou on the back of his head.

"Ouch! Who!"

Wang Datou covered the back of his head and looked back.

Feng Jiuyan pretended to be confused, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

His eyes were innocent and confused.

Mrs. Feng and Feng Jiuli were also confused. They were really confused and had no idea what happened just now.

Wang Datou scanned around and couldn't find the perpetrator, so he had to admit that he was unlucky and took Feng Jiuyan and the others to a room on the second floor in the east.

"Well, this is your room. Our master specially ordered to give you a good room so that you can have a better rest and continue to heal his injuries. Later, an official will bring you hot water. . Wash up and have a good rest, and remember to go to Mr. Meng’s room for acupuncture later."

Wang finished speaking in a nutshell and ran away.

Feng Jiuyan locked the door and turned to look at the room.

The room was really nice, although not luxurious, at least it was clean and tidy.

Everything is there, big bed, tea table. There is also a beauty couch next to the window.

The downside is that the quilt on the bed is hard and not warm at all. Moreover, the quilt cover was already starched and dirty, and the original color of the quilt cover could no longer be seen.

Feng Jiuyan walked back to the tea table and placed the bundle on the table.

"Aniang, Ali, sit down and rest for a while."

Then, he took out a water bag containing spiritual spring water from his bag and gave it to the two of them to drink.

Mrs. Feng sighed, "Well, although the quilt is dirty, we can finally have a good night's rest. We no longer need to use the ground as a bed, the sky as a quilt, and sleep in the open."

Feng Jiuli's little face was also filled with a smile, "It's great, I can finally take a shower. My whole body is itchy to death, and when I scratch my body, my nails are covered with black and numb mud."

As she spoke, Feng Jiuli scratched her head and stretched out her hand to show her mother and sister.

Feng Jiuyan smiled and said, "You little dirty guy, you need to take a good bath later."

As he was talking, there was a knock on the door. "Miss, we are here to deliver water."

Feng Jiuyan opened the door and saw two official servants carrying a large bathtub, followed by an official carrying a large bucket of water.

Several people came in and filled the tub with water.

"Miss, Master Meng said that you need to have enough hot water in your room! If you need it later, just give the order."
