Reborn ten times, she is the real daughter of the Marquis Mansion and she doesn't pretend anymo
Chapter 299 This result is barely acceptable
The shopkeeper was shocked by Yuntang's words and looked at her in disbelief. He didn't expect that a seemingly gentle and well-behaved girl would dare to say such strong words.
"Since it's a deal, just fulfill the agreement and pay 500 taels of silver. If you're unwilling to pay and want to break the contract, then this restaurant won't open."
Seeing that Yuntang was unhappy, Lan Jue's tone became tough.
The restaurant owner is definitely unwilling to pay the five hundred taels. How could he make a profit of two hundred taels and have to pay three hundred taels?
The shopkeeper frowned, his face showing a bit of impatience, but he only glanced at the four tables of people... If a fight broke out, he would definitely lose, but he didn't dare to offend the city guard.
"You disturbed our meal!" Yuntang spoke again before the shopkeeper could open his mouth.
Yuntang was in low spirits and had a bad temper.
Yun Xuanmo frowned and became unhappy. He stared at the shopkeeper coldly.
"You want to make money from the fools and not offend the city lord. That's impossible. An agreement is an agreement. If you can't do business in the first month of the year, you can't explain to your boss."
Yun Xuanmo's words made the shopkeeper look stern. He really didn't dare to make a rash decision as he couldn't afford to offend both sides.
"Boss, why are you hesitating? Either you compensate these customers with 500 taels, or you persuade the city guard to go to another restaurant. You have to figure out which one will cause the least loss."
At this time, an old man among the local guests at another table spoke.
The people who came in later paid a large sum of money to get in, but they did not clear out the guests who came in earlier. There is nothing wrong with this morally. They just asked that no more guests come in later, and there is nothing wrong with their behavior.
It was just that the guest who came was a powerful one and he kept making trouble.
The shopkeeper should have spent some money to curry favor with the other party and coax him away at the beginning, but he did not do that and instead tried to solve the problem from the side of the guests who had booked the entire place.
Unexpectedly, the customer who booked the entire place is also such a tough guy. This will test the shopkeeper's eyesight.
The table closest to them heard some of the chatter from the guests who had reserved the entire place. They were going to the capital, and they were talking about the Duke's Mansion and the Marquis' Mansion...
He is obviously a noble in the capital, so doesn't that mean he has more background than the local city defenders?
The shopkeeper listened to the advice, but he was reluctant to pay the money, so he went to the door again and persuaded the city guard to go to the restaurant opposite, and offered to treat him.
The owner of this restaurant personally escorted the guests to the restaurant across the street and treated them...
He had no choice but to do this. Although there was a quarrel just now, he managed to keep the two hundred taels of theater fee.
After this farce, the waiter guarding the door became more serious, fearing that another customer who would not listen to his advice would come...
Inside the restaurant, Yun Xuanmo scooped some soup for Yun Tang, fed her personally and coaxed her gently: "Be good, drink some more hot soup to warm your stomach."
Yuntang was not in a good mood to begin with and had not eaten much, which was why she was a little irritable when the shopkeeper came to bother her. But since Senior Brother Nine fed her personally, she still drank a few sips of soup obediently.
Seeing this, the other people who were chatting and laughing no longer felt like chatting. They just looked at her with concern, wanting to ask something but felt it was unnecessary.
They could probably guess that Xiao Tang'er's condition today was worse than when he woke up in the camp yesterday, because he had consumed all his energy operating the Azure Dragon Night Walk.
It is like a person who is exhausted and has not yet recovered much strength, but then uses a large amount of energy again, making the recovery even more difficult.
It was because they were not strong enough to share the burden. Feeling ashamed, they began to reflect on whether they had worked hard and seriously in their years of practice.
The business of the other restaurant across the street was actually better than this one. The owner sent the city defender's son there and helped order a table of expensive food and wine. He apologized repeatedly and punished himself with three glasses of wine.
He did so much that the city defender finally gave him some face and stopped making a fuss.
The shopkeeper was somewhat reluctant to come back and face the stubborn customer, so he chatted with the shopkeeper of the opposite restaurant for a few more words before leaving.
After returning, the shopkeeper felt that it was worthwhile to spend dozens of taels of silver to save five hundred taels. He did not offend the city defender too much, and then he could also save the equally difficult guests here.
So the shopkeeper came over, clasped his fists, bowed, and said a few polite words of apology, and the matter was over.
It is only the fourth day of the first lunar month, and the people who come to the restaurant to eat are definitely not there to eat. Most of them come to call friends to have a drink and chat.
Even the people from Qingfeng Temple did not come here to eat.
They just wanted to avoid the conspicuousness of flying over a bustling city in broad daylight, and they also didn't want to cause trouble to the small Taoist temple, so they came into the city to stroll around.
However, apart from a few restaurants in the city, almost all other shops were closed, and there were no street stalls doing business.
It was time for lunch again, so we found a restaurant to eat and drink. We would be able to continue our journey by the time we left the city in the afternoon.
Even though Lan Jue paid for peace and quiet and did not really achieve his goal, they did not want to cause trouble, so they could barely accept this result.
It was not until the afternoon that they paid the bill and left. The shopkeeper even gave them a few taels of change and, unlike his earlier attitude that almost caused a conflict, he politely escorted them out the door.
There were only two tables of guests left in the restaurant, still sitting there chatting in low voices. Among them, the old man who had once admonished the shopkeeper spoke up.
"Manager Liu, you almost got into trouble today."
The shopkeeper was a little surprised when he heard this, but thinking that it was this person who reminded him to stay calm, he quickly walked over and bowed, smiling, "Master Zhou, why do you say that?"
"Let's not talk about the Taoist priests first. Let's just look at the people at the main table. They are either rich or noble. I heard them talking about Duke's Mansion and Marquis' Mansion. Which word can you afford to offend?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes widened in fear.
"I also heard some of them mention the Azure Dragon Guard in a low voice, vaguely saying something like the war in the western border was over..." Another middle-aged man also spoke.
The shopkeeper's expression was stiff. It could be heard that the man had a mysterious background and was not someone he could afford to offend.
In order to thank the old man for his warning and preventing him from making a mistake, the shopkeeper quickly brought a pot of good wine to their table and said a lot of words of thanks.
At this time, the group, who had eaten and drunk their fill, had no streets to stroll around in so they simply walked all the way to the east of the city. After leaving the city, they continued east along the official road for a while until they arrived outside a forest. Yuntang released the Green Dragon Wooden Puppet again.
The group boarded the Azure Dragon and flew into the sky. They flew around the town in the evening sunset and chose a slightly remote direction to fly towards the capital.
As night falls, the capital city comes into sight.
This time they did not avoid it, and Qinglong went straight to the platform in front of Ziwei Pavilion next to Qingfeng Palace.
Xiao Beichen had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw the group of people jumping off the green dragon, he immediately smiled.
"Greetings, Third Senior Brother!" Several people came over and hurriedly saluted Xiao Beichen.
