Chapter 84: Yin and Yang Price (2/2)

Seeing Xia Guocheng coming over, they all looked up and took a look at him. Seeing that Xia Guocheng was dressed in ordinary clothes, they turned their heads and ignored him.

Xia Guocheng didn't care. He walked to the front desk alone and asked the person on duty tentatively, "Can you check in now? How much is the cheapest single room per night?"

The receptionist looked up at Xia Guocheng and replied with a smile, "Hello, you can check in now. The cheapest single room is 100,000 per night."

Xia Guocheng was shocked when he heard this. One hundred thousand a night?! He couldn't make that much money in two years!

He almost thought he had misheard, and he confirmed it with the receptionist several times. When he realized it really cost NT$100,000 per night, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.

After being shocked, Xia Guocheng asked hesitantly, "Didn't you say it was one thousand yuan a night? I just saw you guys in the basement garage of Yunjiang Hotel. We have been staying at Yunjiang Hotel. He said it was very cheap here, so I came here to ask."

The receptionist saw that Xia Guocheng looked like he couldn't afford to stay here, so she didn't plan to talk to him anymore. But when she heard him mention that he had checked in at Yunjiang Hotel, she thought he might be a low-key but capable person.

So the receptionist smiled politely and explained, "We at Hanhai Hotel have set different prices for different groups of people. Sir, your check-in will indeed cost 100,000 per night."

Xia Guocheng was confused when he heard this, and asked in bewilderment: "We are both checking in, why do you treat us differently in your hotel?"

The receptionist covered her mouth with her hands and smiled, then looked up and winked at Xia Guocheng. With a suggestive smile, she replied in an ambiguous tone, "Different services have different prices. Don't worry, sir. We will provide you with special services that are not available in Yunjiang Hotel. I guarantee you will find it worth the money after trying it!"

Xia Guocheng looked at the ambiguous eyes of the receptionist and suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck. He felt scared for no reason and shuddered violently.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a big belly came over. He was dressed like a rich man or a noble. He was surrounded by two receptionists wearing red lace cheongsams and came to check in.

The receptionist quickly turned around to greet the middle-aged man and ignored Xia Guocheng.

Seeing this, Xia Guocheng didn't dare to ask any more questions. He turned around and quickly left the Hanhai Hotel.

The high temperature outside dispelled the chill in Xia Guocheng's heart. He took a few deep breaths to calm his mind, and then returned to Room 36-02 of Yunjiang Hotel.

Xia Shige and others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xia Guocheng return safely.

Xia Shige asked, "Uncle, where did you go? It's not safe outside now. You'd better not leave Yunjiang Hotel easily."

"I just went to the Hanhai Hotel." Xia Guocheng answered, with a puzzled look on his face. "Didn't the guy in the underground garage just now say that it only costs one thousand yuan to stay at the Hanhai Hotel for one night? I thought it was cheaper there and I could save a lot of money, so I went over to ask."

"But when I went to their hotel just now, the front desk told me that the cheapest room was NT$100,000 per night, and that their hotel set different prices for different people."

Xia Shige frowned when he heard this. The same hotel quoted two completely different prices to him and his uncle, and the difference was huge. There must be something strange in this hotel.

If a person only needs to pay one hundredth of the price of a commodity when purchasing it, then who is the commodity?

There is no such thing as free pie in the sky, especially in this kind of capitalist territory.

Xia Shige felt a chill in her heart, and she couldn't help but think of the criminal organization that killed her in her previous life. She felt that the Hanhai Hotel was probably not clean either.

Xia Shige thought to herself that now that her whole family lived here, she couldn't drag her family into trouble, but she secretly took note of this matter and planned to provide this clue to the police after she left here.

After packing their luggage, the Xia family rested for a while. When it was almost lunch time, the whole family went downstairs to the buffet restaurant to have lunch.

"Excuse me, can we bring pets in?" Xia Shige asked the restaurant manager while holding the cat.

The person in charge looked at the well-behaved little cat in Xia Shige's arms, nodded and replied, "Please keep an eye on it and don't let it run around and disturb other guests' meals."

Xia Shige nodded when he heard this.

The buffet at Yunjiang Hotel has a wide variety of dishes, including Chinese and Western food. It is hard to find even a vegetable outside now, but here the ingredients are abundant, as if the natural disaster had not come and everything is still the same as before.

There were three or five guests at each table, chatting in low voices while eating. There weren't many people, and many of them chose to eat in their rooms.

Xia Guocheng muttered as he took the food tray, "It costs 10,000 yuan to stay here for a day. It's so expensive, we have to eat as much as we can."

Sun Yuegui smiled and said, "The food is so expensive now, our family can have a big meal and eat it all in one meal."

The Xia family members took their plates and enthusiastically chose what they liked to eat. Xia Shige also took his plate and wanted to get some fruit for his family.

As soon as she turned to the dessert and fruit area, she heard a customer complain to the restaurant manager:

"Boss, there are too few varieties of fruits these days. There are only a few kinds, either apples or melons. I spent tens of millions to stay in your hotel, and you're just giving me these kinds of things?"
