Su Yin had already considered this.
"I just asked people in the city for information. There is a shoe store in the east of the city. The prices are affordable and the owner is a nice guy. We can go there and take a look. If you think it's not suitable, we can look for another one."
"Okay." Uncle Yang Dashan was the first to agree.
Butcher Yang then spoke up, "I have no problem with that either. I'll do as you say."
Several other families said that there was no problem, but only Old Lady Zhang was still chattering away.
Ten families were hurrying towards the east of the city, and from afar they saw a pattern of accommodation hanging in front of the gate with the two words "good fortune" written on it.
"Is this the one?" asked Butcher Yang.
“This is it.”
Su Yin, Butcher Yang, her uncle, and several other managers entered the shoe shop, while the rest of the people waited outside.
The foot shop is not big, and there are not many customers in the hall, only two people are eating noodles.
The boss greeted the guests warmly when he saw them coming, "Are you staying at the hotel?"
"Yes, I'm staying at a hotel. How much is the room?"
The owner of the foot shop started to quote, "There are two types of guest rooms in the shop. Private rooms are 45 wen per night. In addition, there are large bunk beds, which are 10 wen per person per night."
The price was quite reasonable, and they didn't raise the price too much just because they were from other places.
The owner of the foot shop noticed the group of people outside the shop and roughly understood which type of accommodation they would be staying in, but he still asked, "Dear guests, which type of accommodation do you need?"
Su Yin looked at her uncle and the others. After exchanging glances, they decided to stay here.
They were not planning to run away. They might not be able to find something cheaper than this one even if they looked around. Not to mention that curfew was about to start, so they didn't have that much time to waste.
"Boss, I want a private guest room."
"Okay." The shopkeeper took the house card from behind him and said, "Miss, please show me your household registration document or pass."
In the Yong Dynasty, anyone staying in a hotel had to show their household registration documents or a travel permit to ensure that the person staying in the hotel was not a wanted fugitive.
Su Yin took out her household registration documents. After the owner registered her, he took the room and handed the room number plate to her.
Butcher Yang and his uncle Yang Dahe both had unexpected wealth and were not short of money, but his uncle did not ask for a separate guest room. Instead, Butcher Yang asked for three guest rooms at once.
Butcher Yang's family has twelve people, and there are three guest rooms, so they can still accommodate them if they squeeze in.
The remaining eight families all requested a large bunk bed, and only had to pay a bed fee per person. The boss was kind and did not charge the children, and even the half-grown boys were not charged half the price. Each family could save at least ten coins, and families with many children could save thirty or forty coins.
"Boss, we have mules and cows here."
The shopkeeper immediately called the waiter and took them to put the mule and cow in the barn behind the store.
Su Yin gave the waiter some money and asked him to feed the mule and cow some grass and water.
Su's mother and Su Baozhu moved the belongings unloaded from the car into the room, and the second uncle called his two older cousins, Yang Hua and Yang Lin, to come and help.
With the addition of these two people, Su Yin and the other two felt a lot more relaxed.
Before leaving, Su Yin stuffed a big meat bun into each of the two people. Su Yin had originally kept the two buns for himself, but in the end they ended up in someone else's pocket.
Returning to the guest room, Su Yin called the waiter.
"Give us a bucket of hot water."
"Sir, do you need a small bucket or a large bucket of hot water for bathing?"
"How much do they cost?"
"A small bucket of hot water costs only ten coins. A large bucket costs one coin."
When Su Baozhu and her mother heard the price, they gasped.
One penny of silver can buy almost four or five meat buns. And those are meat buns!
The waiter seemed to see their shock and explained calmly, "Water is in short supply right now, so we have to buy water. Not to mention the price of firewood has also gone up, so the price will be slightly higher."
Mother Su said directly: "We want a small bucket."
They are farmers and don't care about so many things. Ten cents for a bucket of water is a luxury.
Su Yin was not interested in saving money. Since she was staying at the hotel, she naturally had to get comfortable. The daily fatigue was exhausting her body. She naturally had to relax her body when she had the chance, so that she could walk a longer distance.
"Give me a big bucket first, thank you, little brother." Su Yin directly paid one penny for the hot water fee.
Su's mother wanted to stop them, but the two shop assistants ran away without giving her a chance.
Mother Su stared at her daughter with dissatisfaction, "Yinyin, there will be many places to spend money in the future, we have to spend it frugally. You know how much you can buy with one penny of silver."
"Mom, don't worry, I have money." Su Yin took something out of her bag and handed it to her.
When Su's mother and Su Baozhu saw the glittering gold ingots, their eyes widened.
Su Baozhu thought that the money she was talking about was the money she had picked up in the cave before, and the dozens of taels of silver left after buying supplies.
I never expected it to be gold ingots.
Before they could speak, Su Yin put her finger to her lips and made a gesture to silence them, "Shh! Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
The two of them nodded continuously. Su Baozhu couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Yinyin, where did this come from?"
"Remember when we went out to investigate that group of people? I picked it up there."
The two of them suddenly realized.
"Did your uncle pick it up?" Su's mother was very concerned about her brother's gains and losses.
Su Yin nodded, "No gold, but there are other things."
"What about Butcher Yang?"
Su Yin nodded.
After satisfying their curiosity, the two did not ask any further questions.
Su Baozhu and her mother had never touched gold before. They took turns playing with it, looking at it with curiosity and excitement.
Su Baozhu bit the gold ingot in her mouth, and seeing the marks left on it, she smiled innocently, "It's real."
Su Yin couldn't help but want to laugh.
After appreciating it enough, Su's mother quickly stuffed the gold ingot back into her arms, "Put it away quickly. Don't tell anyone else about this, understand?"
These words were not only spoken to Su Yin, but also a reminder to Su Baozhu.
"I know."
Mother Su nodded in satisfaction and changed the subject, "Although you have money on hand, you can't spend it lavishly. There is still a long time to live, and there are many places to spend money. We should save as much as possible. In the future, you must not spend a penny to buy hot water. It is a waste of money."
Even though she knew the family was rich, Su's mother still couldn't change her frugal nature.
Su Yin naturally understood Su's mother's psychology. The older generation was used to being frugal and it was difficult to change them.
This is why when I was in Blue Star, I often saw sons of families who were big bosses with a net worth of hundreds of billions, using luxury cars worth tens of millions to transport scrap for their mothers to sell.
"Mom, I understand."
"That's good to know."
The waiter's voice came from outside the door, "Sir, the water is ready."
Su Yin put her things away, and then Su Baozhu opened the door.
Two waiters moved a large wooden barrel into the room, and the room, which was not very spacious to begin with, immediately became cramped.
