Chapter 6 Identity Is Doubtful
The autumn sun is not as fierce as summer, but it still has a baking feeling when sunbathed on people.
Sun Ji, the shopkeeper of Dongsheng Inn, looked at the signboard of Yuelai Inn opposite through the autumn sunshine, feeling a little annoyed, and mixed with a lot of doubts.
He and the other three inns made a bet between him and the other three inns on the opposite side of the inn, because today is the last day of his bet. Looking at the appearance of the Yuelai Inn opposite, it is impossible for him to close his business within this day, so he has paid the money.
When he thought of taking out the private money he had finally saved, he was naturally extremely upset. Although he also had the factors of why he had to participate in the gambling game impulse, he still took the majority of the dissatisfaction with the owner of Yuelai Inn, which was still running the business.
After the annoyance disappeared a little, the doubt that was originally suppressed by the annoyance appeared.
Unlike only a guy, the chef and other three others, Bai Shier and others who know very little about inn management, Sun Ji, who has been the shopkeeper of Dongsheng Inn for many years, is quite knowledgeable about inn management. This is also the confidence that he dares to spend his private money to participate in the gambling game.
Judging from the experience he has accumulated over the years, in addition to being able to barely achieve a small surplus in the first half of the month after its opening, the losses will increase over time. The business of Yuelai Inn over the past few days can also prove his guess. Therefore, even if the owner of Yuelai Inn is not willing to give in deep down, he should have closed down under such a huge loss. How could he have been delayed until now and has no response?
Even if he really gritted his teeth and didn't want to give up, he had to implement some struggle remedies. How could he never even show his face? Could it be that his money was blown by a strong wind, and he wouldn't feel sad?
Sun Ji couldn't figure it out, and the remaining three people in Dongsheng Inn could not figure out, but the three people's mood was different, or Bai Shier's mood was very different from Li Dali and Wang Jinbao.
The reason is also very simple, because so far, only Bai Shier still has the chance to win the bet. Li Dali and Wang Jinbao had already lost the bet before Sun Ji.
"Shopkeeper, do you know which prodigal son of the owner of Yuelai Inn?" Seeing that the owner of Yuelai Inn, which should have closed down in his eyes, was still running lukewarmly, Li Dali couldn't help but become more and more curious about the owner of Yuelai Inn.
"How do I know this?" Sun Ji, who had already lost the bet, was in a mood, rolled his eyes and replied.
"You don't even know?" Li Dali narrowed his eyes unconsciously, "Is the owner of this Yuelai Inn a rich family in the county?"
"Take," Sun Ji curled his lips disgusted, "I'll tell you, the shopkeeper, guy, groom, and cook in Yuelai Inn, have one, all the new faces I've never seen before."
"Hey, this county is so big, not to mention less than ten faces you have never seen before, it's not surprising that there are hundreds of them." Bai Shier couldn't help but curl his lips, obviously a little disdainful of Sun Ji's words.
"Hmph, what do you know, little guy?" Faced with Bai Shier's doubts and disdain, Sun Ji snorted lightly, looking like he was disdainful to explain to Bai Shier.
"Twelve, you came late, so I don't know," Wang Jinbao, who had been silent next to him, rarely spoke at this time and explained to Bai Shier kindly, "Before the boss was invited to take care of the inn by his boss, he relied on being a living for the rich families in the county to make a living, so the rich shopkeepers in the county dare not say that they are all familiar with them, but they are not much different."
"But what does this have to do with whether he recognizes the guys and cooks in Yuelai Inn?" Bai Shier was a little confused and didn't understand the relationship between the two.
"You kid is so smart, why can't you turn this way this time?" Li Dali slapped Bai Shier's head, "If this ordinary person wants to open an inn, especially an inn opposite that can afford three-story pavilions, do you think it's possible?"
"Of course it's impossible." Bai Shier subconsciously shook his head, "No matter how you have to be able to do it..." Then he came to his senses, quickly covered his mouth, and then spoke again, "It's possible that the family is very rich."
"Yes," although he didn't understand what Bai Shier suddenly covered his mouth, Li Dali didn't think much about it and continued to say as Bai Shier said, "Since he is a rich family, do you think if he opens such an inn, he can't use any of his family members? Even if he doesn't use his family, how can he not use any of the servants in the family?"
Bai Shier frowned. The reason Li Dali said was very simple and could be understood at a glance, so he immediately figured it out.
"Since you have never seen the shopkeeper," Seeing that Bai Shier seemed to have figured it out, Li Dali stopped explaining, but turned to look at Sun Ji, "Then the owner of Yuelai Inn seems to be from other counties?"
"Maybe." Sun Ji frowned slightly and nodded slightly in certainty. "But if it weren't for the wealthy family in this county, how could he think of coming to this small town in our county to open an inn?"
"Well, that's right," Li Dali also frowned, "put aside his own territory and settled a relationship, he ran to our unfamiliar county to open an inn. What did the owner of this Yuelai Inn think?"
"That is, if outsiders want to do business in our county, Zhou Bapi in the county government will definitely not miss such a good opportunity. He will have to pay a lot of money from the beginning of opening this inn. If he says it is in the county town, it may be profitable. If he drives it in such a small town, the owner of the Yuelai Inn..." Sun Ji finally chose to show mercy and did not express the last few adjectives with strong contempt and insults. After all, he is already so unlucky. If he takes such a bad habit, even if the other party can't hear it, Sun Ji feels a little embarrassed.
...
Sun Ji and Li Dali in Dongsheng Inn were still guessing the identity of the owner behind Yuelai Inn. In his heart, he felt that the other party was completely Shi Lezhi and would definitely have to bleed heavily to deal with the magistrate and officials from the yamen. The owner of Yuelai Inn was visiting the magistrate Zhou Guan.
It was said to be a visit, but if the rest of the people saw the expressions of the two of them at this moment, they would be surprised and even their chins fell to the ground.
nicknamed "Zhou Papi", he is the chief of Xin'an County and the Bailihou, who is in charge of tens of thousands of Dingkou in the county, is a little flattering at this moment, and sits on the main seat with a little nervousness. His butt seems to have hemorrhoids, and he dare not sit down. Only one third of his butt is gently leaning on the chair, and the sweat beads that pop up from time to time on his forehead further illustrate his mood at this moment.
