Chapter 231 Black Heart Inn
"After winter is over, there will be big moves in foreign countries." Jiang Lin was holding the secret report sent back by the people who were sent to the border earlier.
Qin Xiangnuan took it from Jiang Lin, and there were many things she didn't understand.
"So when we reach the border, will you separate from us?" Qin Xiangnuan can only focus on things related to herself at the moment.
Jiang Lin heard this and gave her a deep look before replying, "Yes."
After all, it had been made clear before that these matters would not involve General Qin. Jiang Lin now sincerely hoped that Qin Xiangnuan and the others could live a stable life.
Qin Xiangnuan lowered her eyes. They didn't have a close relationship before, but now that they had gone through so many hardships together, it was okay for them to stay together at the border, but she couldn't make the final decision on these matters alone.
So Qin Xiangnuan said no more.
At this time they were passing through a small town, where they could see a few foreigners walking on the street.
Qin Xiangnuan saw this and asked Jiang Lin, "Relatives between the two countries are tense right now. If they appear here so openly, won't it cause trouble?"
Jiang Lin briefly explained to Qin Xiangnuan, "As long as the war hasn't started yet, these civilians won't be implicated."
Qin Xiangnuan looked at the street again with doubts. The goods displayed on the street were of many more styles than those elsewhere, and objects with obvious foreign characteristics could be seen.
At this time, Qin Xiangnuan heard a childish voice, saying words she could not understand.
"That should be the child born from the union of the two countries." Seeing Qin Xiangnuan staring at a certain place, Jiang Lin looked over and saw a child about five or six years old pointing at them. His clothes were the same as others, but his language was completely different.
Qin Xiangnuan nodded. She guessed that when she looked away, she heard the language of her native country. It turned out that they were asking who they were.
This kind of union has been quite common since ancient times. After all, it is love between people, and many times external restrictions are not considered.
"Can you speak foreign languages?" Qin Xiangnuan suddenly asked Jiang Lin curiously.
Jiang Lin chuckled and said, "A little bit. When I was a child, I met an envoy from a foreign country in the imperial palace and learned from him for a few months."
Qin Xiangnuan felt that he probably didn't remember much of what he learned in childhood, but she also knew that he must have brought someone who understood this nonsense, and she was eager to try.
"You want to learn too?" Jiang Lin raised his eyebrows, puzzled. "If you don't interact with those people, it's useless to learn."
Qin Xiangnuan waved her hand, denying his words, "When we get to the border, we'll definitely meet more foreigners than here. I'd like to do business with them then, and if anyone comes looking for trouble, I'll be able to deal with them.
Jiang Lin thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he agreed to her request.
Today they stayed at an inn, and when they wanted to park the carriage, they were told that there was no place to put it.
The waiter couldn't make the decision, and didn't dare to lose this distinguished guest who looked wealthy, so he had to ask the shopkeeper for help.
"Dear guests, I see that you are extraordinary. I hope you can forgive me if I have been negligent." The shopkeeper was very humble and polite.
Jiang Lin replied with a distant tone: "It's okay, our carriage is a bit difficult for you. How many can you accommodate here?"
The shopkeeper came downstairs and had not yet seen what their carriage looked like. At this time, he could only turn his head and look at the waiter.
"This, not even one will do." The waiter replied with a wry smile. In fact, the main reason was that the specifications of their carriages were not suitable, and they could not enter the door of the inn's backyard.
“…” There was a moment of silence in the air.
This sounded like a provocation. The shopkeeper coughed dryly and said, "I, I'll go take a look first."
Jiang Lin and Qin Xiangnuan didn't say much and asked the shopkeeper to go out and take a look.
The shopkeeper had never seen a carriage of this size before. After being amazed, he said to Jiang Lin, "My dear guest, I am truly sorry, but our shop..."
"Understood." Jiang Lin waved his hand. "Then please tell me where is the most suitable place."
The shopkeeper looked very embarrassed, and Qin Xiangnuan said to him: "It's getting late. We still need to stay at your inn today, and we need to find a place to park these cars nearby."
After saying this, the shopkeeper acted as if he had suddenly realized something. "Dear guests, please come in and rest. I'll have the waiter take you there."
"Thank you very much, boss." Jiang Lin smiled coldly.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but shrink back, then waved his hands and said it was not necessary.
"Master, let's go." Anfeng and Anliu took people to park the carriage.
The Qin family had already sat down and waited in the inn. After drinking a few cups of tea, no one came, so they wanted to ask Qin Feng to go out and take a look.
Just then, I bumped into the shopkeeper at the door.
"Ouch!" The shopkeeper had been turning his head to introduce the upper room of the store to Jiang Lin, so he didn't see anyone. At this time, he looked up with a sullen expression.
"cousin."
However, when the shopkeeper heard Qin Xiangnuan's address, his expression instantly changed and he put on a smile.
Qin Feng didn't notice him at all, his eyes were always on Jiang Lin and Qin Xiangnuan.
"Cousin, have you dealt with everything?" Qin Feng casually pushed the shopkeeper aside with one hand.
Qin Xiangnuan nodded, and after stepping into the room, she saw the people sitting nearby. "Why haven't you entered the room yet?"
At this time, the shopkeeper squeezed over again and said, "We are negligent, waiter, quickly show the guest to the room!"
“Here I come!”
Their people almost occupied an entire floor, and the innkeeper even exchanged rooms with several guests. Fortunately, their inn had enough rooms, and the innkeeper was very happy.
"Please tell me what you want me to do." The shopkeeper followed Jiang Lin, "I'll have the waiter take good care of you."
"No need." Jiang Lin said in a cold voice.
The shopkeeper was tactful and left after a few words of greeting.
After going downstairs, the shopkeeper went straight to the kitchen.
"Boss, I heard that a wealthy customer has come. What will the dishes be for tonight?" The chef had obviously been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw the boss, he came forward to ask.
"Same as usual," the shopkeeper said with a smile, "but this time he looks tough, so be careful."
"I understand!" The cook only knew that he had made money again, and he jumped easily to the fire to cook.
The shopkeeper took a few glances at the kitchen and then left.
Anfeng and Anliu parked their carriage but did not rush to the inn. Instead, they wandered around. Jiang Lin asked them to find out more news about foreign countries and check the safety around the inn.
When they rushed back, it was already late at night. There were not many guests downstairs in the inn. A few waiters had some free time, so they gathered in a corner and talked about what they had seen and heard that day.
"You didn't see it. I've never seen such a magnificent carriage. I wonder who this high-ranking official is."
"I don't know who this noble person is, but he must be noble."
At this point, both of them burst into laughter, but they quickly restrained themselves out of consideration for the other guests, and then spoke more quietly.
But those tiny sounds eventually reached Anfeng's ears through the air.
