Chapter 232 Gaosheng Inn
Chapter 232 Gaosheng Inn
When Wen Wuyan and his group entered the inn, the waiter hurried to greet them. After looking at his equipment and seeing that he brought his family with him, it was unclear whether the guest was here to take part in the county examination.
"Sir, you are here to take part in tomorrow's county examination?" the waiter asked directly.
"Ah."
"After ten years of hard study, if you have a will, you will succeed. I wish you good results and a bright future."
"Thank you for your good words, young master!" Wen Wuyan smiled and nodded to the waiter to show his gratitude.
Gu Qingqing behind him smiled when she heard this. The waiters in this county are very knowledgeable and can easily say a few auspicious words.
"You have made the right choice by choosing our Gaosheng Inn. It is not only relatively quiet, but also close to the examination hall. Many people who come to our inn today are here for the same purpose as you. You can get together and exchange ideas..."
The waiter led him into the store, then turned around to see that he had brought his family with him, and asked hurriedly, "How many rooms do you want, sir?"
"Two ordinary rooms will do." Wen Wuyan replied.
They had agreed on the way here that they would book two rooms today, one for him and Daxin, and one for the mother and daughter.
"Okay, two rooms..." The waiter wanted to say it loudly as usual, and his eyes fell on the many students in the store. In an instant, he was like a duck with its neck restrained, holding his breath in his throat, making his face flushed.
After this breath, the waiter turned around and said to Wen Wuyan politely with an apologetic look, "Oh, guest, you don't know that the county has been full of people like you taking exams these past two days. Our shopkeeper also hopes that you can all get good results. Therefore, the price of the original 30-cent room has been slightly changed. It is definitely a good omen."
"Your shopkeeper is a good businessman." Wen Wuyan was thinking, would the price of a good meaning be twenty-eight cents or twenty-six cents?
Suddenly, the waiter laughed and said, "Today's house price is fifty-nine cents. Fifty-nine is a good omen, and you will be given an important position by the emperor."
After the waiter finished speaking, he raised his hands in a formal manner and bowed towards the north to show his respect.
Phew...cough cough cough
Wen Wuyan couldn't help coughing. The house price of thirty cents on normal days was actually half of the price.
Gu Qingqing, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the waiter after hearing his words: "Slut! Slut who leads the trend!"
Daxin was confused and couldn't help asking, "Brother Xiaoer, other stores usually offer discounts during sales, why is it that your store is more expensive?"
The waiter gave Li Xin a meaningful look, "Look, the reverse of five nine five nine is nine five, what is nine five? It is the honorable position of our Daliang, and we also hope that some of the guests staying in the inn will rise to prominence and be appreciated by the honorable position. Isn't this just for good luck? Besides, the examination hall is remote, and our inn is specially prepared for the examinees."
After hearing this, Gu Qingqing tried her best to purse her lips and not let herself laugh. The subtext of this statement was that our inn is located in a remote area and business is not good on weekdays, so we must take advantage of you to take the exam to make a fortune, right?
And he also said a lot of high-sounding flattering and well-intentioned words.
You know what, he is quite good at understanding people's psychology.
It is indeed a big expense to support the family's education. Now that they have finished their studies, will the family still care about these fifty-nine taels of silver?
But compared to Gu Qingqing, this is nothing new. There is an exam tomorrow, and those who live far away have to find an inn to stay in if they go to the county today. What's the difference between this and traveling during the Golden Week holidays in the previous life and booking a sky-high priced hotel?
At that time, the price displayed on the mobile phone was cold and cold, and it seemed that there was no bargaining and it was up to you to order or not.
But it was different at the moment. The waiter at least said a few auspicious words.
Seeing Wen Wuyan was hesitant, she stepped forward and said, "Wuyan, let's book two rooms. Just like the waiter said, if we can win the championship in one fell swoop, we will make a profit."
At this moment, the waiter saw another carriage parked outside and immediately said to Wen Wuyan and the others, "Sir, if you don't make a reservation, the two rooms will be reserved by the backstage staff, and there will be no ordinary rooms left."
"We're determined." Wen said without saying a word.
In this way, the whole family, big and small, stayed in the inn.
The waiter led the way, "You are taking the county exam, so the price increase these days is not that big. If you meet a student taking the county exam, prefectural exam or academy exam, the price increase will be high. But our inn always provides hot water, just tell me if you need it. In addition, if you want to borrow a stove or something, as long as it is not during meal time when the kitchen is busy, we can help you..."
While they were talking, the waiter had already taken them to the second floor and pointed to two rooms halfway up the stairs and said, "Look, our room has good lighting and ventilation, and it's not facing the street, so it's quite quiet."
As soon as Gu Qingqing entered the room, she sniffed hard. Fortunately, she didn't smell any musty smell.
I went over and touched the bedding, and it was dry.
It's not a bad idea, but I'm afraid of encountering those who charge too high a price and don't clean it.
This place should be relatively remote, and there should not be many people who can stay here. The house has been uninhabited for a long time, and it lacks the smell of human beings.
After the group had looked at the rooms, Gu Qingqing gave the innermost room to Wen Wuyan, and she lived outside facing the street so that he would not be disturbed too much.
Erhua looked around curiously when she entered the room, then tiptoed through the window and looked out, "Wow, I can see the tops of people's heads outside, it's so high up here!"
Dahua was helping Gu Qingqing make the bed so that Sanhua could lie comfortably.
Seeing Erhua playing over there and looking at her curiously but not showing any reaction, he could only shout, "You will play later, help your parents put away their things first, your father will be busy later."
Erhua giggled when she heard the voice, turned around and ran back, "Sister, I'm here."
The family quickly packed up, "You can study or rest in your room this afternoon. I'll ask the waiter to bring up some food. After dinner, I'll take the kids out for a walk and buy some food. I'll bring it to you in the exam room tomorrow."
"No need to be so troublesome. There are foods inside. I can just buy some for lunch in the examination room and it will be the same." Wen Wuyan didn't want Qingqing to ask for help.
Gu Qingqing didn't have any hope for the big pot dishes over there, and even sneered at them, "How can the food there be as delicious as what I cook? I heard that if you eat well, you will be in a good mood, and if you are in a good mood, your brain will work faster, and if you work faster, you can perform better."
Wen Wuyan knew that he couldn't win the argument with Qingqing, so he could only smile and say, "Then I'll trouble Qingqing."
Inside the house, before Gu Qingqing could get up to call the waiter, Daxin beside her stood up quickly and said, "Aunt, I'll go. What do you want to eat?"
"Okay, go ahead. We'll just have something to eat at noon today, just buy whatever you like, and then we'll have a good meal in the evening."
Daxin came back soon, and soon the waiter brought five bowls of vegetarian noodles.
