Wulong Inn

Chapter 34 ...

The 'lock picker' is a small square metal box, the internal structure of which is somewhat similar to a Swiss Army Knife, and small tools of different shapes can be stretched out from all directions.And one of the ends of the metal piece bent into a hook shape should be the thing that opens the inner lock of the wooden door.Taking a closer look at this exquisitely crafted little thing, Gao Fei thought he had a new understanding of the superb craftsmanship of ancient times.Putting the 'lock pick' on the table casually, and taking a few more glances at the 'Toon wood chain' that exuded a strong fragrance, it was a good thing at first glance, Gao Fei finally turned his gaze to the anxious Yue Luan was born.

After seeing off Yue Xiaomei, Gao Fei left Luansheng alone.I wanted to have a long talk with my son about "why there is no silver silk scroll" and "the importance of children's honesty and trustworthiness", but unexpectedly "seized" these two things by accident.

The identity of 'father' is still very deterrent at critical moments. Before Gao Fei could ask questions, he just gave him a somewhat stern look. The frightened little guy immediately reported everything that happened at home alone to him completely. Gao Fei reported it again.In the end, the little guy pointed at the east room and accused him dishonestly: "That uncle must have taken the plate."

Looking thoughtfully at the somewhat mysterious east room with its doors and windows closed, Gao Fei thought to himself, did he accidentally get a chance to go there to explore the secrets?Let the son put away the two things, and also put a series of valuable experiences I have summed up when I was young, such as "don't talk to strangers casually, be careful when making appointments, and how to skillfully blackmail the elders for "little toys" Pass it on to your son.Gao Fei pushed open the door and walked towards the east room not far away...

After knocking on the door for a long time, no one opened it. If Gao Fei was not sure that there must be someone inside, he would have given up a long time ago.The persevering sound of knocking on the door seemed to finally 'impress' the owner, and the wooden door was pulled open abruptly, and a distraught face poked out from the door, looking at Gao Fei warily.

Sure enough... Concentration is the essence. Looking at this old man with tangled beard and hair who is only a step above Wu Dalang, this idea naturally flashed through Gao Fei's mind.Before he had any other thoughts, he heard the old man ask in a vicious voice: "Who are you!"

Looking at the angry old man amusedly, Gao Fei said unhurriedly, "I'm a resident in the side room over there."

"Something happened!" The alertness in the old man's eyes grew stronger. Obviously, the overly tactful reminder from the penthouse resident was not enough to evoke his memory.

"I just want to return my plate." Gao Fei said innocently as if he didn't see the strangeness in the other party's eyes.

"Plate?" The old man seemed a little confused, and repeated it with a little hesitation.

"That's right," Gao Fei replied with a light smile, "It's fine for the old man to eat the silver rolls I made, but at least give me back the plate."

"Yin... You made that little cake!" The old man looked at Gao Fei in surprise, and he finally recalled what happened at noon.

"Of course." Gao Fei immediately gave an affirmative answer.

The wary look in the old man's eyes was suddenly replaced by flattery, and he looked at Gao Fei eagerly, wanting to say something excitedly.

Looking at the old man with his thoughts written all over his face, Gao Fei showed a meaningful smile: "Won't the old man invite me to sit in the room? It's always inconvenient to stand by the door and talk..."

The next day, at the same time again, the two little girls, accompanied by their respective brothers, went out confidently.Passing through the familiar streets, I came to the troubled area yesterday.At this time, Gao Fei was not in a hurry to set up a stall. He searched for a long time among the vendors, and finally found Fat Granny's stall. He was about to lead everyone there, but was grabbed by Luo Shuyu.

Looking at Gao Fei with some doubts, Luo Shuyu said seriously: "I said Ayue, we can't bully people like this." He obviously felt that Gao Fei set up the stall next to the fat woman out of uneasiness and good intentions.Gao Fei didn't explain much, and with a wave of his hand, the matter was settled. After setting up the stall, the two of them repeated their tricks and started selling

The difference is that Gao Fei let the little girls also participate, and under the personal demonstration of Luo Shuyu, they learned sales skills. According to him, this is called 'progress in practice'.After making several deals one after another, the two little girls also had some experience.Seeing that the business of his own stall was on the right track, Gao Fei immediately turned to Fat Granny's stall, and under Fat Granny's astonished gaze, he attracted customers for her.

Good eloquence coupled with high-quality products, the unsalable goods in the hands of the fat woman, under Gao Fei's clever mouth, immediately became popular,

Luo Shuyu looked at Gao Fei's actions, a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say much...

———————————————————————————————————

Wandering aimlessly in the street, Luo Shuyu boredly took his eyes back from the various shops that he had been tired of looking at for a long time, glanced at Gao Fei where the old god was there, and finally couldn't help but say: "I said , we have turned around this street twice, what exactly do you want to do, can't you let me know first."

Just now when they finished their business, Sister Shuyao was going back to 'divide the spoils' with her bulging small purse. Seeing her look of money confusion, it was obvious that she was quite worried about the first large sum of money she earned by herself.Gao Fei uncharacteristically said that he wanted to go shopping again. Luo Shuyu felt that something was wrong with Gao Fei, so he wanted to follow him when he saw it, so the four of them divided into two groups and entrusted the younger sisters to the fat man who closed the booth in advance. Mother-in-law, the two of them pressed the road.

At the beginning, Luo Shuyu was quite calm, and silently followed Gao Fei, thinking about finding clues from Gao Fei's actions.But after circling the entire street in a bored manner, after turning around twice, he couldn't bear it anymore, and finally asked.

Gao Fei heard the words, turned his head and glanced at Yue Ergou who was still happily telling the story, and said casually: "Wait a little longer."

When Luo Shuyu heard this, he gave Gao Fei a mournful look, and then shut up very depressed.

Seeing Luo Shuyu's rather depressed expression, Gao Fei put his shoulder on his shoulder a little funny, and he decided to explain his purpose for wandering in the street first: "You, you followed me all this way, and you didn't see Come to the door a little bit?"

"What doorway?" Luo Shuyu replied sullenly

Gao Fei said unhurriedly: "We walked through this street twice just now, and looked at the stalls on both sides of the street. I don't care what you saw, let me tell you what I saw first. Bar,"

Pointing to the vendors on the street, Gao Fei talked casually: "On the road just now, I mainly looked at our colleagues, not counting the shops with facades on this street, just the vendors on the street selling rouge. How many gouaches and beaded headbands are there? Which corners are easier to attract customers? What are the approximate prices of various styles of accessories? Which products sell better? Just this way, I have already had a plan... …Speaking of which, Gao Fei paused, and looked at Luo Shuyu meaningfully. Seeing that the other party was lost in thought, Gao Fei showed a satisfied expression. After the show was over, Luo Shuyu, who was still thinking about it, strode up to meet him. …

———————————————————————————————————

It is said that Yue Ergou has been really proud of himself since he started the business of "storytelling".How wonderful it is to be able to earn huge sums of money every day telling stories.

But as the saying goes, without long-term considerations, there must be near-term worries. At this time, Yue Ergou, who is beautiful on the surface, has hidden worries in his heart that no one knows.What is the hidden worry?It's very simple, he has no more attractive jokes!

It turned out that since the "Black Mountain Ghost Story" became popular, Yue Ergou tried to change some other stories in order to improve his story.It's a pity that his level is limited, and he doesn't have any good subject matter, so the new story is received coldly after he has just told it.The helpless Yue Ergou could only chew the cold rice, repeating this 'Black Mountain Ghost Story' back and forth.

But people are always aesthetically fatigued. Today is the third time he has retold this story. Although there are still voices and applause, the audience has decreased a lot.This kind of cognition made him secretly anxious but helpless.

Holding a much smaller reward than the previous few days, Yue Ergou sighed rather worriedly. , was about to close the stall and go back, when suddenly his eyes dimmed, he was startled, he covered his purse, and raised his eyes on guard... "Huh..." When he saw someone coming, Yue Ergou let out a soft cry in surprise. , secretly thought in his heart, isn’t this Yue Family Dalang?

Gao Fei saw Yue Ergou's expression, and knew that the other party knew him, and thought of the name Ergou that Yue Xiaomei called out in a low voice, so he was a little uncertain: "Ergou... big brother."

Hearing Gao Fei's words, Yue Ergou came back to his senses all of a sudden, waved his hands and said repeatedly: "I don't dare to be that", casually glanced at the strange young man beside Gao Fei, Yue Ergou said hesitantly: "Young Yue family Brother, what are you?"

However, Gao Fei said rather enthusiastically: "It's been a long time since I've seen you, do you want to treat Brother Ergou for a drink?"

Yue Ergou was taken aback when he heard the words, because in his memory, this high-ranking Yue Family Dalang seemed to have never looked at him directly, what happened this time?As the saying goes, there are abnormalities and demons, Yue Ergou is still very vigilant, but the other party is too enthusiastic, and he has the posture of not letting go unless he agrees.

In the end, Yue Ergou had no choice but to say: "Then why not, let's go have a cup of tea." After all, he remembered that he still had a lot of money with him, and he didn't talk about drinking or eating, just because he drank tea. No matter what you do, you won't lose your mind, and it won't take too long.Anyway, there are people coming and going in this blue sky and day, so I don't worry about falling into any trap.

Seeing that the other party finally agreed, Gao Fei was relieved in his heart.Glancing around, he saw that although there were many wineries and teahouses around, there was only one inn. The plaque of the inn, a rather simple two-story building, is too eye-catching.But after all, Gao Fei didn't come to stay at the hotel, and the doubts in his heart only flashed for a moment, and then he was thrown away.Taking Yue Ergou and Luo Shuyu along, Gao Fei and the others walked into a tea house called 'Taixinglou'.

Sitting uneasy on the window seat on the second floor of the tea house, Yue Ergou drank the fragrant tea in his hand, and then went straight to the topic: "I don't know why Brother Yue is looking for me?"

However, Gao Fei didn't answer Yue Ergou's question, but said very seriously: "I've been listening to big brother's stories for the past few days, and I just think this 'Black Mountain Ghost Story' is so wonderful that it makes people want to stop."

"Where, I'm overwhelmed." Hearing Gao Fei's words, Yue Ergou pretended to be modest, and the guarded look on his face was much less.

Obviously didn't even listen to half of it, how dare you say it, looking at Gao Fei with a sincere face, Luo Shuyu cursed in his heart.

Seeing Gao Fei's proud smile at Shangyue Ergou, he said hesitantly: "But, it seems that there is only one story going back and forth."

As if he didn't notice that Yue Ergou's smile was about to collapse, Gao Fei said to himself: "It would be great if I could hear something else.

Gao Fei's 'inadvertent' words revealed a lingering hidden worry in Yue Ergou's heart. Looking at his 'fans', Yue Ergou had the idea of ​​vomiting out all the words that were bored in his heart, and he sighed a long time. He said in a tone: "New stories, I really want to tell new jokes, but this kind of thing is easier said than done." After speaking, he slowly expressed his difficulties

He only focused on talking about his own thoughts, but he didn't notice that Gao Fei's eyes were getting brighter...

———————————————————————————————————

After the 'negotiation' was over, Goofy walked briskly back home.But he saw that many people had already gathered in his hut.Yue Xiaomei was the first to meet Gao Fei, and when she saw Gao Fei, she complained, "Brother, why did you come back now, and kept the guests waiting for so long?" Gao Fei turned to look at the so-called guests when he heard the words, and saw that the fat woman's family was cramped. Sitting restlessly on the wooden chair in the house.He nodded to them as a greeting, but Gao Fei didn't show any surprise on his face, obviously he had expected that this fat woman's family would come to visit.
