16 The Seventh Shop
β "Even if it was me, I couldn't help it."β
Is it him?
Lu Yao squatted down and looked carefully.
This silver-haired, red-eyed Nittian figure was dressed in black and had a black collar around his neck.
The last time Lu Yao saw Lu Mingxiao in Sanhua City, he had a collar around his neck.
She didn't notice it at the time, nor did she ask much. She
suppressed her thoughts and asked in a normal way: "Do you two want to have dinner or stay in the hotel?"
The silver-haired, red-eyed figure looked up at her, took out a bag of candy from his black robe, and put it directly into her palm: "Stay in the hotel."
Next to him stood a female Nittian figure in a white robe. She had long light golden hair, light gray eyes, and held two red pigs in her hands.
She noticed Lu Yao's gaze, but she was not afraid: "Are you an adult?"
Lu Yao nodded: "Where are you from?"
"My name is Jian Lan, from the Shenmu tribe."
Jian Lan raised her head slightly when she spoke, and her expression and posture were quite arrogant.
Unfortunately, she was small and not very aggressive.
Lu Yao looked at the little man with silver hair and red eyes again.
He nodded slightly, his eyes lowered, and he seemed not curious about her at all: "Ying Tong."
Lu Yao put the candy into the currency exchange machine, and a bag of candy was exchanged for four nit coins.
She looked down at the two people: "Excuse me, do you want a suite or a single room?"
Lu Yao was afraid that they didn't understand, so he explained the layout and differences of different rooms in detail.
Yingtong: "I want a single room on the second floor."
Jianlan: "...I want a single room too."
Hei Ci was still eating breakfast. Lu Yao turned back and called Xiao Zheng, handed the two red pigs to him, and took the two guests upstairs.
In the guest room area No. 1, Yingtong checked into room 201 and Jianlan checked into room 202.
---
In room 202, Jianlan controlled her emotions, unloaded her luggage, and began to slowly look around the room.
In fact, as soon as she came in from the door, Jianlan felt that this place called "inn" was not ordinary.
It was not until she walked into the room that she really understood the scene described by the little people a few days ago.
A few days ago, five or six little people came to the temple to ask for a fetus. They talked about a hotel opened by adults in Stranglethorn Vale, which provided food and accommodation for travelers.
The priest waited for them to leave, and sent Jianlan and Yingtong to inquire about the situation.
The adult humans had long been extinct, and Jianlan did not believe what those people said at first.
Entering Stranglethorn Vale, seeing the flat road extending to the center of the valley, seeing the huge windmill spinning in the wind, and seeing the beast-like house standing in the middle of the valley, Jianlan had to start to believe.
Then she saw the legendary adult humans, and she perfectly maintained the demeanor of a descendant of the gods.
But now that she was alone in the room, Jianlan was a little confused.
This room is not particularly large, but the layout and furnishings are all exquisite.
She found the bathroom that Yin'er mentioned, opened the strange valve, and hot water really flowed out.
In the room, there were clean clothes for people to change at will, furry shoes, and soap-like items that gave off a pleasant aroma. Everything matched the descriptions of those people.
---
After Xiao Zheng settled the red pig, he returned to the kitchen and quickly made two breakfasts specially prepared for the little people.
At this time, Hei Ci had packed up and officially started work.
He pushed the food to the guest room on a cart, took the elevator to the second floor, and delivered the breakfast to the guest room. Lu
Yao used his mobile phone to time it. It took Hei Ci three and a half minutes to push the cart from the kitchen to the guest room area, a distance of about five meters.
Then he took the elevator upstairs and completed the meal delivery work, which took a total of five minutes.
Thanks to Lu Yao for carving a heat preservation magic circle on the dining cart, otherwise the food would have been cold by the time it was delivered to the guests.
Lu Yao took out a convertible car model and called Hei Ci to his side: "Can I teach you how to drive?"
---
Jianlan sat at the table and looked down at the plate in front of her.
She first noticed the container for the food, a small white bowl and plate that felt smooth and delicate to the touch, with a few cute little flowers dotted on the edge.
Jianlan initially thought that the small flowers were decorated with plants, but when she reached out and touched them, she found that they were patterns on the bowl and plate.
It was the first time she had seen such a beautiful container.
The aroma of food filled her nose, and Jianlan couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She didn't bother to look at the bowl and plate, but picked up a beef pie and stuffed it into her mouth. Her teeth tore through the pie crust and bit into the soft and juicy meat filling. She was slightly stunned, threw away her messy thoughts, and began to concentrate on eating.
Jianlan ate all the food on the plate in a flash, even the eight-treasure dish served with the porridge. She felt a little hungry after touching her belly.
But she didn't know she could have more food. She sat there for a long time to savor the food before getting up and delivering the plate to the door. Then she went to the bathroom to run hot water and prepare to take a bath.
Jianlan and Yingtong had rushed all the way from the Shenmu tribe and checked into the hotel after a night of rushing. There was no reason not to experience it.
After soaking in the hot water until she was warm, Jianlan slipped on her slippers and lay on the bed. She wrapped herself in the warm quilt and closed her eyes.
---
Room 201, Yingtong came out to deliver the plate and saw Lu Yaojiao driving a car downstairs.
He stood by the railing in silence, watching the clumsy young man sweating profusely while learning.
Seeing that he was just watching a show, Lu Yao took the initiative to call him: "Do you want to come down and try it?"
Ying Tong met her gaze, blinked, and really turned around and walked downstairs slowly.
Lu Yao put the models he had assembled last night in a row for him to choose from, and Ying Tong picked a black "Bentley".
The principle of the sports car model is the same as that of a child's toy car, but the model is scaled down.
As long as he masters simple techniques, the Nitian man can also drive these beautiful model cars to drift in the room.
Hei Ci could never learn it, probably because he was a native villain and had no concept of machinery in his life. The mere fact that the model car moved scared him.
But Ying Tong was different.
He opened the car door and got in, holding the steering wheel and started slowly, and the palm-sized black model car moved on the table.
Hei Ci's eyes were full of disbelief.
Ying Tong drove faster and faster, driving straight to the end along the edge of the window sill, reversing and turning in one go, driving back and slowly stopping in front of Lu Yao.
Hei Ci stood aside, looking at Ying Tong in admiration, so excited that he didn't know what to do.
Lu Yao suggested: "Sit on it and feel it? Let Ying Tong take you."
Hei Ci looked at Ying Tong expectantly: "Can I?"
Ying Tong looked up at Lu Yao.
She had a smile on her face and a gentle expression.
Ying Tong didn't say anything, just nodded.
Hei Ci suppressed his excitement, opened the car door, and got in carefully. Lu
Yao reminded him to fasten his seat belt.
Ji Qingyan pushed open the door of the hotel, looked up and saw a handsome sports car flying out, and hurriedly changed into indoor shoes: "This, this, this...what is this new way to play?" Lu Yao
was not surprised: "Learning to drive."
Ji Qingyan gave her a thumbs up, thinking "You still know how to play."
She couldn't help but take out her mobile phone and took this video, with the same auntie smile as Xiao Zheng on her face.
Lu Yao reminded: "Remember to delete it when you leave the hotel, otherwise your phone will explode."
Before the intranet was built, the shopping street was still bound by rules.
Yingtong ran a few laps, gradually became proficient, and began to show off her skills.
Hei Ci tightly grasped the safety belt on his chest, more excited than the driver.
In Room 401, Zhu Zhou and Yi Wei had just gotten up and were preparing to go downstairs for breakfast.
When they came out of the room, they heard an unusual sound. They lay down on the fence and looked down, and saw Ying Tong and Hei Ci sitting in a strange box.
The box was moving around without the need for Red Pig to pull it.
Yi Wei and his wife went downstairs with a strange mood.
The black "Bentley" drove from the kitchen and stopped at the door of the restaurant.
Hei Ci jumped out of the car and walked to the back to unload the small cart hanging on the rear of the car. Lu
Yao pressed the timer on his phone: "It only took fifty seconds to get here from the kitchen."
Hei Ci quickly served the two guests, then turned around and begged Ying Tong to teach him how to drive. The
Ion Tail couple also had no appetite for their breakfast.
Xiao Zheng's cooking skills were stable, but the sports car was too attractive.
Ion Tail and Zhu Zhou sat by the window, and during the time it took to eat, the black box would "whoosh" over, circle around, and then "whoosh" away again.
Later, Zhu Zhou lay on the window sill, staring at the sports car intently.
Lu Yao took out two more model cars: "Do you want to try?"
Zhu Zhou's eyes widened: "We can do it too?" Lu Yao
nodded: "It's not very difficult, be brave and you will learn it soon."
Zhu Zhou and Yi Wei looked at each other, hesitant.
At this time, Hei Ci drove a car slowly over, turned a corner and stopped in front of Lu Yao: "Lu Yao, Lu Yao, I can drive!"
Lu Yao habitually rubbed Hei Ci's head and praised him: "Great! I said you can learn it."
Zhu Zhou and Yi Wei couldn't sit still and ran to let Hei Ci teach them.
Lu Yao went to the nail salon and picked up Mei Lulu and Pushu. The window sill was bustling with cars all morning.
There were too many people who wanted to drive toy cars, and the model cars Lu Yao built last night were not enough.
Ji Qingyan started working immediately and assembled a row of fashionable car models. At a glance, there were various "Rolls-Royce", "Porsche", "Lamborghini", "Ford"... Lu Yao
looked at the parts next to him and couldn't help laughing: "It's worth the money. Can't this be used to build a parking lot?"
Ji Qingyan took out the small train that Lu Yao assembled last night from the warehouse: "Shopkeeper, are you going to keep this in the hotel as well?"
Lu Yao pushed the train model on the table and an idea flashed: "This big block is a bit heavy to put in the store, why not take it outside the store?" . "
Ji Qingyan: "Outside the hotel?"
Lu Yao: "Outside the hotel is a valley. We just cleared the nearby thorny vines a few days ago and built a road. The little people are so small, it takes a lot of time to walk over the hillside, I think it would be better to build a track under the fence to pick up and drop off guests."
Ji Qingyan couldn't walk out of the store, and couldn't imagine: "How long would it be?"
Lu Yao stood at the door and looked in both directions: "Let's build a section first to see the effect. The one-way distance should be about 50 meters."
If it is built into a closed loop, it will be more than 100 meters.
Lu Yao hesitated for a while, and decided to build a circular track around the fence, from the hotel door to the signpost.
Ji Qingyan took a deep breath, her eyes sparkling: "It's such a big project, it's a pity I can't help."
Lu Yao patted her shoulder: "I'll be in charge of the track outside the store, and you'll take care of the inside of the store. Although sports cars are small, it's dangerous if too many of them collide with each other, so you plan the route."
Both of them were very active, so they went their separate ways after discussing it.
Xiao Zheng was in charge of cleaning, taking care of guests, and preparing meals.
Xiao Zheng is a boy with a strong "homely nature" in private, and he is not careless in doing these things.
When he was done, he pulled a chair and sat by the window, watching the little people playing with a smile.
When the little people were tired from playing and went back to their rooms to rest, he and Ji Qingyan continued to build the hotel.
Outside the inn, Lu Yao first marked out the scope and route of the track under the fence, shoveled away the snow that had accumulated at night, and then filled a small shopping basket with parts. Starting from the door of the inn, he built the track in the direction of the Red Pig Tribe.
Every one meter, a magic circle had to be engraved to fix and strengthen the track.
Ying Tong looked at Lu Yao not far away, but did not take the initiative to help or speak.
Lu Yao built a section forward, and he followed.
When he was tired of standing, he climbed up the horizontal railing of the fence and sat down.
Yingtong's cute look completely touched Lu Yao's heart.
She took out a marshmallow with a filling from her pocket and handed it to her.
Yingtong took it and held it in her arms.
Lu Yao: "Don't you want to eat it?"
Yingtong couldn't tear open the wrapping paper, so she handed the marshmallow back and looked at her eagerly.
Lu Yao thought this guy was maliciously trying to be cute.
But it is undeniable that the Nitians are naturally cute.
Lu Yao took the marshmallow, tore open the packaging and handed it back.
Yingtong hugged the marshmallow with both hands, leaned over and took a fierce bite, and her cheeks were stained with white powder, but this bite did not reach the filling.
The sky was cloudless and the ground was covered with silver.
Lu Yao carried a shopping basket, half-crouched by the fence, and spliced ββthe rails one by one.
Yingtong sat on the fence, holding the candy in her arms, biting it in small bites.
When she finally bit the center, Yingtong tore off a piece with force and stretched out her short hand: "Lu Yao."
Lu Yao raised her head, and fine beads of sweat oozed out from under her hair and slid down her fair skin.
She raised her arm and wiped her face carelessly, shaking her head to refuse: "My hands are dirty."
Yingtong frowned in the middle and stretched out her short hand stubbornly.
Lu Yao was silent for a while, put down the parts, stretched out his hand to sweep Yingtong from the fence to his palm, and looked down at him: "Nites are really cute."
Yingtong tilted her head: "?" Lu Yao
stretched out a finger and poked Yingtong's cheek lightly: "Even if it was me, I couldn't help but want to rub and pinch it."
Yingtong: "..."
---
After lunch, Harold and Budu came to help, and Yingtong, who had been held in Lu Yao's palm for a long time, also calmed down.
In the afternoon, he sat in the shopping basket and diligently delivered parts to Lu Yao.
The four people were very efficient, and a 100-meter-long mini train track was completed that day.
Lu Yao thought about building two bus stops at the starting point and the end point, and it would be better to set aside a small platform, build a canopy, and add a few benches.
The tracks and platforms were completed, but there was still one problem - they needed train drivers and train crew.
---
The day shift at the inn is from 9 to 5, and those on night shift have to rest in the inn.
The duty schedule rotates once a week, and this week Lu Yao and Hei Ci are on night shift. At
five o'clock, Ji Qingyan and Xiao Zheng got off work on time.
Before getting off work, Xiao Zheng had already prepared dinner in advance.
Iris, Takenori, Yingtong and Jianlan all had dinner in the restaurant on the first floor.
Jianlan and Iris met in the afternoon and there was a little friction, still because of the matter of the fetus.
Legend has it that the Nitians living in the Shenmu tribe are descendants of the gods, and their symbol is light golden hair.
When Iris saw Jianlan, she couldn't help but think of her disappointment a few days ago.
Jianlan also recognized Iontail and Takeshu, and seeing Blackthorn, she said "The priest made a wise decision", which made Iontail angry.
During dinner, the atmosphere was tense and depressing.
Luyao came out after cleaning the kitchen, and the two sides were still deadlocked. Because they were full of dinner, they didn't want to go back to the guest room.
Luyao took out a small train model: "The moonlight is very beautiful tonight. Who is willing to go out for a ride with me? You can take a small train."
The little people heard in the afternoon that Luyao and other adults were building a very powerful track. Iontail and Takeshu went out to see it, but they didn't understand the function of the track.
They were curious and a little scared.
Lu Yao spread her hands on the windowsill, Yingtong was the first to jump into her palm, followed by Hei Ci, then Iris and Takeshu, and Jianlan also came over shyly.
Merulu and Pushu could not pass through the star gate, so they stayed behind to guard the store.
The two little ones were not interested in the sports car enough, so after all the customers left, they drove their favorite sports cars and ran around the windowsill.
Outside the store, Lu Yao put the model train on the track and guided the little people into the carriage.
She originally planned to use magic to drive the train to take the guests for a ride, but Yingtong went straight into the cab and called Hei Ci.
The model train has a simple structure and does not require too sophisticated skills. The train driver is responsible for controlling the direction and speed, and the train conductor guides the passengers to their seats. A trip can carry ten passengers.
Once the passengers are familiar with the train, there is no need for a train attendant, and a train driver is enough.
"Woo woo woo--"
A clear whistle sounded, and the train started to move slowly.
Iori and Takefusa were sitting in the first carriage. They had experience driving a sports car during the day, so they were not panicked.
Jianlan, who was sitting alone in the second carriage, was startled and almost screamed.
The train was not going fast, and Jianlan saw the scenery outside slowly receding from the small window.
The strings of lights climbing on the fence were densely packed, like a slowly flowing river of stars.
She was immersed in such a night, and her emotions were smoothed out unconsciously.
The train drove up a gentle slope and stopped at the signpost.
Lu Yao was faster than them and reached the finish line earlier. He was squatting on the gentle slope and waving at them.
At the end of the fence was a platform with a canopy. Under the dark green canopy, four benches were placed side by side.
Outside the canopy stood a khaki station sign with the three big characters "Stranglethorn Vale" written in the language of the Nitean continent.
The little people walked into the platform, seeing everything new and surprising.
Ivy and Takeshu sat side by side, staring blankly at the night outside the canopy.
Ivy clasped her hands together, leaned back on the chair, with a warm light in her eyes: "Living here doesn't seem bad."
Takeshu looked at Ivy carefully for a while, held Ivy's hand, and nodded gently.
After the stroll, the train carrying the little guests went around the fence and slowly drove back to the hotel.
Back at the hotel, Iori and Takeshu took the initiative to find Luyao and expressed their willingness to stay at the hotel.
Luyao quickly handled the employment procedures for the two.
[Successfully recruited qualified staff within seven days, mission completed! Rewards: Popularity +300, Acorus +3! ]
[Luyao's inn has initially gained the trust of the Nitian villain and has been upgraded to a two-star inn. Reward: 1 Luna Flower. Please keep up the good work! ]

Nitian Continent, Red Pig Tribe.
Ten hunting team members, carrying weapons and bags, rode red pigs, with great momentum.
The elder stood at the border of the territory, with a worried look in his eyes: "This trip is dangerous, you must be careful."
This year's ice age has not ended yet, there are no prey around the territory, and the edible plants have long been dug up.
The hunting team had to go on an expedition during the most severe period to find new hunting grounds and yam fields.
[Author's words]
