The big rivers and lakes that attack

Chapter 264

Listening to this, Lu Mei understood why these merchants would take the initiative to pay taxes, because a sect called "Xiamen Group" appeared here to protect their business routes.

I also understand that the reason why Juansha Town suddenly became so prosperous is because the trade routes have become safer.

But there are also some doubts in my heart, such as why Miss Six joined this sect called "Xia Ke Tuan"?And who founded this sect?What kind of role does Mama Hua play in it?

With such doubts, Lu Mei did not go to Huajie for the time being, but went to the inn, where she met the steward of her own caravan.

The steward said that the accommodation has been arranged, and he has also negotiated with the owner of the Liefeng, and the delivery will be made tomorrow.

Lu Mei nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, and let the person in charge do the work.

And she herself wandered around in this "Dragon Gate Inn". The area of ​​the inn has also become larger, and it has been divided into more than a dozen courtyards.

There are large courtyards, medium courtyards, small courtyards and tube buildings, and the prices are not expensive. It only costs five silver sentences to stay in the large courtyard for one night, which is very cheap. Of course, such a large courtyard cannot actually compete with Zhongtu Compared with it, the scale is smaller, and there are no artificial mountains and rivers.

A compound has three entrances, the first entrance is the shed for mules and horses, and the warehouse, and the second entrance is three small attics and several relatively spacious adobe houses, which can accommodate dozens of people.

The third entrance is the main residence area, with two small attics, where the heads of caravans usually live. There is a living room, a more luxurious master bedroom, a place where servants live, and so on.

Although it is simple, it also has a special flavor.The middle courtyard is a courtyard with two entrances, and the basic layout is similar, except that the main residential area at the back is missing, and there are two silver judges for one day of living.

There is nothing to say about the small courtyard, an adobe room with a big kang, a table, three or two chairs, and a hut next to the adobe room.

Then there is nothing else, not even a kitchen, this place is usually for those poor and miserly people to live in, and they only charge seventy or eighty big money for three days.

As for the tube building, it is said to be a building, but it is only on the second floor, and there are dozens of rooms separated by dozens of rooms. A room costs two dollars a day. The place is basically unoccupied except for the down-and-out disciples who come here from time to time to practice.

Lu Mei walked around the inn, looking here and there, and sighed softly: "It really is different, I remember the inn before, there was only one big yard, and about twenty adobe houses... ..."

With this in mind, she was about to leave the inn and go to Flower Street to see what had changed there, feeling a little hopeful in her heart.

Just when she came to the lobby and was about to go out, she saw a person walking in from the outside. This person was known to Lu Mei and was the owner of this inn. She was moved by herself to blame Qiu Jinyu in front of her father and Uncle Long.

The clerk of the inn quickly stepped forward to say hello: "My boss is back, how is the meeting going?"

Qiu Jinyu said lazily: "What else can I do, isn't that what happened? Aunt Hua found it troublesome to leave Feng Bie, so I didn't go, so I went to your boss as an honest person."

"Meng Aqing and the others talked a lot, and they also talked a lot to the second brother, such as the lack of manpower for the Knights Group, the lack of manpower for mining in the west, and the pension , what tax collection?"

"I almost fell asleep listening to it, and asked me what my opinion is. I have a fart opinion. Running this inn is enough for my mother. How can I care about other things?"

"Xiao Dao left without hesitation, went to Middle Earth to be happy, but left all these troubles behind, this plan, that plan a lot."

"Meng Ahqing and the others are stubborn again. It's so troublesome. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have agreed to the nonsense 'five-year plan'..."

Complaining so, Qiu Jinyu took off the black cloak on her body.

The clerk took it graciously, and said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, I think the big boss's plan is very good. The town has become so lively. Didn't we also make a lot of money? Compared with the past, I don't know how much better it is." .”

Qiu Jinyu sighed: "Yeah, very good, making money, it's just fucking tiring... Huh? This girl looks very kind, seems to have seen it somewhere?"

At this moment, Qiu Jinyu noticed Lu Mei who was smiling at her.

Lu Mei nodded with a smile and said, "Lv Mei of the Thousand Swords School has met Qiu Dong's family. I have been to Juansha Town before. It was several years ago, and I have also received the favor of Qiu Dong's family."

Qiu Jinyu was puzzled, and thought for a long time but couldn't think of it: "Is there such a thing?"

Lu Mei smiled and said, "That's right, it's a 'life-saving grace'. I think I was besieged by a group of horse bandits in the desert. Seeing that I was invincible, it was the Qiu Dong family who passed by and saved me."

"is it?"

Qiu Jinyu couldn't remember it, but seeing that the girl looked familiar, after thinking about it, she felt that it was probably the case.

She already had a warm heart. Back then when Shunzi was almost hacked to death and fell in the desert, she was the one who rescued her. Sometimes when horse bandits bullied others, she would help them out. That's not too bad what a strange thing.

Come to think of it, this girl should be like this.

Thinking of this, Qiu Jinyu just smiled and said: "Then thank you for taking care of my business, and chat with me when you are free."

"Oh, by the way, you are from the Qianjian Sect. I remembered that the Lu family from Lingzhou lived in my shop a while ago and brought a batch of mercury. You Qianjian Sect should also be doing this business. ?”

"In the past few days, Liefeng has made the 'glazed water mirror'. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, there is really no way to say that mirror, it can take a clear picture of people."

"Looking at that mirror, I realized that I was born so good-looking... Cough, hehe, don't think about the first batch of mirrors. They were all snatched away by that coquettish woman, Hua Guzi, and I only took them." Up to two or three pieces, now out of stock."

"But you can wait a few more days until the second batch of mirrors comes out. If you bring the mirrors back to Middle-earth, you are guaranteed to make a lot of money for the Qianjian faction. Don't dare to leave after delivering the goods like Lu did. They're at a loss."

Lu Mei smiled and said, "Thank you, Big Sister Qiu, for your suggestion, then I'll go to Flower Street to see how fine the mirror is."

Qiu Jinyu waved his hand and said: "Go, go, it's strange for a good-looking person like you to see that object and not be fascinated. This time I went back to make a fortune, remember to come to our store next time .”

Lu Mei nodded and said, "It's for sure. Anyway, thank you everyone for 'saving your life' that day."

Qiu Jinyu didn't care, smiled, and said a few words casually, to be honest, in this arena, life-saving grace is really not worth much.

Lu Meizi also left, heading towards Flower Street.
