Taiping Inn

Chapter 2

Hearing Liu Jinyi say this, the three were not surprised. After all, every battle between good and evil has someone who is unfortunately involved. The lucky ones can save their lives, while the unlucky ones will die directly.

After the three greeted each other, they sat down separately. Liu Jinyi took out two Taiping coins and asked the waiter to serve the dishes.

Two Taiping coins are sixty taels of silver. If they were placed in other places, they would be enough for seven or eight tables, but in Mingsheng Inn, they were only enough for one table.

If it were Liu Jinyi in the past, he would never be so extravagant. But after joining the "Taiping Inn", he would receive a monthly allowance of silver. The four levels of Tiandi Xuanhuang are different. Huangzi clerks receive one Taiping coin per month, Xuanzi clerks receive ten Taiping coins per month, Dizi clerks receive thirty Taiping coins per month, and Tianzi clerks receive fifty Taiping coins per month. In addition, special errands will also require corresponding silver coins. How to spend this silver coin depends on the errand person's own arrangement. If there is an overspending, he can use his own money to make up for it. If there is any surplus, it will all belong to him.

Now Liu Jinyi is a Dizi clerk, with an income of thirty Taiping coins per month, which is nine hundred taels of silver in silver, which is not a small amount. He has not spent much money in the past year, so he has saved a lot of Taiping coins. In addition, he was approved one hundred Taiping coins this time, which is considered to be a comfortable hand, so he does not care about this little money.

Liu Jinyi can be sure that there must be many colleagues in Longmen Mansion now, each with their own errands. In the early days, they still had territorial divisions, but later, as the number of waiters increased, he found that the strategy had changed. They no longer divided people by territory, but by duties. For example, their "waiters" faction really lived up to the word "running", collecting intelligence and running all over the world. There is also the "cooks" faction. Liu Jinyi has only seen one of them. He seems to be a horse thief from the Western Regions. He is good at using knives and is fierce. People in this faction are responsible for killing people. For example, when Liu Jinyi is inconvenient to take action in order to hide his identity, he can hand it over to them. At the same time, they are also responsible for executing traitors internally. There is also the "accounting" faction, which is completely opposite to the "cooks". They almost never take action and are engaged in paperwork. It is these people who pay them silver every month. In addition, there is the "miscellaneous service" faction. This faction has the most people and does the most things. As the name suggests, the things that the other three factions cannot do or are inconvenient to do are handed over to the "miscellaneous service" faction. This faction is also a mixed bag.

Speaking of the "errand boy" faction, the leader is a Tianzihao waiter, who is said to be the direct disciple of the "errand boy" and the first waiter to join the inn when it was first established. He has an unusual status. When she calls her master, she often calls him "little shopkeeper". Although others don't know the meaning, they all think it's more appropriate than "errand boy". After all, if they really call their superiors "waiter", "errand boy", "accountant", and "cook", it feels a bit disrespectful. So others followed suit and called them all by the shopkeeper. The original "shopkeeper" is naturally the big shopkeeper, "waiter" is the deputy shopkeeper, "accountant" is the third shopkeeper, "cook" is the fourth shopkeeper, and "errand boy" is the small shopkeeper. In the cognition of all the waiters, the "boss" must be the person with the highest status, even above the big shopkeeper, so they must be particularly respectful and call him "boss".

In fact, the reason why Han Yue called Shi Wu Yue like this was because Shi Wu Yue was still mad at that time. She thought that Li Xuan was the big shopkeeper, and she should be the small shopkeeper. She never thought about the third or fourth shopkeeper. It was just a difference between big and small. But other people in the inn didn't know the meaning, so there was such a misunderstanding. Later, Shi Wu Yue recovered from madness, and she didn't care about the distinction between these titles. She didn't deliberately correct it. Under such a coincidence, this became an unwritten rule in the inn.

Later, when two strangers in the inn met for the first time, they would talk to each other, and there was always a question of belonging. One party asked: "What do you call me, brother?" The other party answered: "'Waiter', so-and-so." One party then talked about his origin: "I'm a 'cook', so-and-so." If there was an acquaintance, he would say one more sentence: "You are a 'cook', do you know so-and-so?" If they knew each other, they would have established a friendship. If someone like Liu Jinyi is directly under a certain shopkeeper, he will add a sentence "follow the deputy shopkeeper to work", and others will be in awe and a little more afraid. After asking about belonging, and then talking about level, you are Xuan and I am Di, so you have to listen to me this time. If the two people are of the same level, then they will talk about seniority. Whoever enters the inn first is the senior, and whoever enters the inn later is the junior. If it really doesn't work, the old way is to compete in realm cultivation, so as not to hurt the harmony. In the words of the rivers and lakes, that is, to shake hands, whoever wins will talk.

In addition, the "shopkeeper" faction and the "dongjia" faction are the most mysterious, and few people show up, but these two factions are hidden above the other four factions. They will only show up when something big happens.

Liu Jinyi remembered that the deputy shopkeeper had explained that this time someone from the "shopkeeper" faction would come to meet him, but the specific time was still uncertain. The other party was a Tianzi clerk, and he was working with the big shopkeeper, and had a special relationship with the big shopkeeper.

According to the unwritten rules of the "Taiping Inn", the other party is superior to Liu Jinyi in both origin and rank, so there is no doubt that he must give priority to the other party.

Liu Jinyi was thinking about this when he suddenly heard the man with the knife on his back say loudly: "Brother Liu is generous, I think he has made a fortune."

Liu Jin suddenly came to his senses and looked at the man. His name was Li Dahong, but he had nothing to do with the Li family in Donghai. He seemed rude, but in fact he was as meticulous as a hair, and he was greedy.

Liu Jin knew in his heart that he saw his two chunks of money and believed that he had made a fortune.

Most of the scattered people in the world are like this, and they have a low vision, so it is more normal to be petty for the sake of a few melons and two dates. Liu Jinyi saved a rich man and was thanked by others. He made a small fortune, about 5,000 taels of silver. At that time, these guys tried their best to praise him, saying that he was a righteous man, what is a hero? It is righteousness, and then spending a lot of money and not using it as money. Liu Jinyi is not a fool. Of course, he knows why his brothers suddenly feel like they are smearing honey on their mouths, but no matter whether it is true or not, it is better to praise him in person than to stab the backbone behind him. Moreover, the money is obviously spent, otherwise they can spare him. Have you? In short, whether they praise you in person or scold you behind your back, the result is the same. It is better to take the initiative and gain a good reputation for being righteous and wealthy.

Now looking at this posture, this guy named Li has begun to hit the bottom, and then he uses the same trick again.

Liu Jinyi has now joined the inn. Not only has the great improvement in cultivation, but he has a great backer of the infinite realm of heaven and man, and his back is hard and his confidence is enough. He really doesn't take dozens of Taiping money seriously. He said, "To be honest, I made a small fortune last year."

Li Dahong had indeed expressed such an expression on his face and said, "Look, I'll say Brother Liu is rich."

Liu Jinyi smiled slightly, "Xiaocai, Xiaocai, it's just a hundred peaceful money."

Li Dahong widened his eyes, "One hundred flat money is three thousand taels of snow-flake silver, and now gold is precious and silver is cheap. If you really want to exchange it for silver, you can probably exchange it for an additional hundred taels of silver."

The old man also said, "Three thousand taels of silver are a lot."

The old man's surname is Song and his name is Song Shichun. He has been hanging around in the world for a long time. He is a slut, but he is much more kind than Li Dahong.

Liu Jin smiled and said, "What's this? I heard a friend from Wandumen said that he would not talk about this number at a time when he was doing things there."

He stretched out a finger as he spoke.

Li Dahong shrank his neck and shook his head and said, "Ten thousand taels of silver? It's a lot, but you have to spend money with your life. The business there really is tied to your belt. I heard some All the masters of the Guizhen Realm are broken in it, not to mention far, you all know the 'Strange Beggar' ranked 39th in the black and white score, just do things for Wandu Sect, but in the end, they die. And Mr. Wangchen from Guiyun Villa couldn't get it well."

The young man who had never spoken said, "That's because they didn't have eyes. If they hit Mr. Qingping, can they survive?"

The young man's surname is Xu and his name is Xu Tiansheng. The weapon in his hand is the folding fan, which is as sharp as a knife, and there are thirty-six steel needles hidden in it. They are shot out with special techniques, which is extremely sharp.

Liu Jin glanced at Xu Tiansheng and sighed, "Yes, Wandu's business is not easy to do, and it's hard to be in the world these days. I'm sure I've made a small fortune this time, but it's not cost to treat my injuries. Younger, I really have to find a way to make money. If it really doesn't work, I just find a sect to invest, and at least I have a backer."

"Brother Liu, don't be fooled." Li Dahong said: "You don't even see when this is the time. There will be a big mess in the world soon. Another bloody storm. You can go to join the sect at this time Sect, didn’t you hand over your life? Those sects have designated you to die, not like dying in the hands of people in the evil way, or dying in the hands of people in the righteous way."

Liu Jinyi sighed, "Brother Li said that these days, it is difficult for scattered people to get along with them, and there is nothing that is not difficult."

Xu Tiansheng suddenly said, "If I talk about this way to make money, I don't know if the brothers dare to do it?"

Liu Jinyi asked, "What's the way?"

Xu Tiansheng lowered his voice, "Confucianism."

Liu Jin was moved in his heart, remembering the explanation of the deputy shopkeeper, who was to pay close attention to the movements of Yin-Yang Sect and Confucian Sect. At this time, he was already worried when he heard Xu Tiansheng take the initiative to mention Confucian Sect, but his face still looked hesitant. He frowned, "Confucianism? To put it bluntly, those men who are inferior to those who are only high in their studies, can they look down on us thick and barbarian warriors who are from mud legs?"

Xu Tiansheng smiled slightly, "Now the world is only talented. As long as you have real skills, there is nothing you don't think of."
