Chapter 32: That Night at the Hotel

The weather was suddenly bad and it rained heavily. The duration lasted beyond the expectations of the shop assistants.

The difference in water potential inside and outside the hotel is quite appalling.

Pedestrians who originally planned to have a meal in the hotel and take a rest to continue their journey, or passers-by who had to come in to take shelter from the rain just passing by, were crowded in the simple and small hotel, listening to the wind, rain and thunder outside.

During the long rainy season, there are basically no vacant rooms in the hotel.

This is the only place where the innkeeper can smile.

Tan Jue and the others had booked the guest room before, so naturally they didn't have to worry about where to sleep at night, which was an extremely serious problem for other people.

Situ followed all the way, not without sleep, basically wherever Tan Jue and the others slept at night, he slept a few feet away, with the sky as his quilt and the ground as his mat, with the cool breeze blowing gently on his face. It is much more comfortable to sleep in the corner of the cage.

There were really too many people in the hotel. The hotel owner rubbed his hands and smiled silly, chatting and discussing with the guests who had booked many vacant rooms.

Perhaps it was due to Duan Tong's aura of not getting close to strangers, Tan Jue ignored everyone, the innkeeper could only laugh dryly in front of these two people, and was frightened by the two swords, he did not dare to speak harshly , repeated a few words "Eat well, drink well, drink well." After that, he left timidly.

On the other hand, Kang Ningmeng Qingxiao, at first glance, is the kind who is easy to talk and easy to approach.

The hotel owner made a deliberate detour, and finally found Qing Xiao and Kang Ningmeng after discussing with other people.

Kang Ningmeng didn't wait for him to finish explaining why he came, and he agreed casually, "Okay, give up my room."

"Yes, yes, be kind to others!" After being stunned for a moment, the innkeeper quickly nodded in praise, and swallowed all the compensation terms he hadn't said yet.

The conditions negotiated between the hotel owner and others are to give up some of the rooms, and the cost of the remaining rooms will be halved, and the cost of meals will also be halved.

And these vacant rooms will be rented by the hotel owner to guests who are willing to share the room and share the rent at a price three or four times higher than usual.

There is no profiteering, no business, taking advantage of the time to make huge profits.

Kang Ningmeng didn't see the money-obsessed expression on the hotel owner's face, and said to the few people at the next table who were chatting happily, "I gave you the room, and I paid for it."

Kang Ningmeng's next table is a family who fled due to the famine in Quzhou, and is going to seek refuge with relatives in Yangzhou.

Most of the refugees are poor farmers with their backs to the yellow sky and the black soil, and this family is no exception. The parents and a pair of children are all hungry, skinny, and ragged. The only rich property is half a bag under the care of the father. Low grade rice.

This half bag of rice is all the food the family prepared for Yangzhou.

As soon as the innkeeper saw the people at the table, he knew that there was nothing to be squeezed out. He inadvertently showed contempt, curled his lips, and walked away angrily, thinking he was unlucky.

Seeing Tan Jue looking at him inscrutablely, Kang Ningmeng smiled at Tan Jue Chunliang, "Your expression tells me that you don't know that I'm not a good guy."

Tan Jue withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes, and said, "No, I was thinking, you are actually a thing."

Situ spent the night standing outside Tan Jue's room.

The shop assistants came and went in front of him, stopping and going.

He closed his eyes and listened to different footsteps, making it difficult to fall asleep.

Since he couldn't fall asleep, Situ simply stopped sleeping and listened carefully to the sounds around him.

I don't know what he heard while concentrating on it, and the roots of his ears gradually turned red.

The author has something to say:

What Situ heard was Duan Tong's voice in Qingxiao's room, during the harmonious period, please be pure, make up your mind now, and complete it later.
