Feng Yuanning planned to deal with the guests who came to eat first, so he took the time to go to the ice spring in the backyard to practice for half an hour.
She recalled the plot of the novel "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and found that the best mental method in the whole book was "Nine Yin Scriptures".
The best part is that this mental method can also improve the practitioner's physique.
It just so happened that the Nine Yin Scriptures appeared early in the book, so she naturally had mastered it now, so she might as well practice it.
Although I cannot cultivate immortality yet, this set of skills is not bad. I will first enhance my talent and improve my energy, and try to sleep one or two hours less every day.
Feng Yuanning was happily thinking about it in her mind, and she walked downstairs happily, only to see that the lobby was bustling with activity.
Some people were squatting or sitting in the lobby, reading books intently.
When some people saw Feng Yuanning coming down the stairs, they immediately rushed over, as if they were in a hurry to be reborn:
"Shopkeeper, I need a library card."
"Shopkeeper, I also want to apply for a library card."
Feng Yuanning's eyes went dark. Why were there so many people again?
Although she wanted to go to Bingquan to practice immediately, she could only suppress her impatience and apply for library cards for these guests first.
While applying for a library card, Feng Yuanning said, "After you borrow a book, you don't have to stay in the store to read it. Take it home and read it slowly."
A large group of people squatted in the hotel lobby reading books, neither staying overnight nor eating. Did they want to take advantage of the "natural air conditioning" or just squat in the "natural air conditioning"?
"Shopkeeper, could you please add some tables and chairs to the reading room?"
“It would be better if there were sofas in the reading room.”
Yes, they could, but it would take up too much space and wouldn't seat so many people. Wouldn't they start fighting over seats? To put it bluntly, they just want to take advantage of the "natural air conditioning" and don't want to go home and endure the scorching heat.
Feng Yuanning said indifferently, "It's not the lack of seats that's worrying, but the inequality. The store can't accommodate too many people, so it's better if no one has seats."
At this time, Song Yuluan, Ling Jing, Yun Xiyu, Lu Chengji and others walked towards the restaurant together.
Lu Chengji finally found an opportunity to recognize his nephew and has now started to work with these Jianshan disciples.
Song Yuluan couldn't help but stop in her tracks when she heard Feng Yuanning's words and offered her support. "You're right. There are a limited number of tables and chairs, so some people won't be able to grab them. To be fair, it's better if no one gets any. If you want to enjoy the cool air, there are plenty of tables and chairs in the fountain park. They cost one penny per hour. You're just hanging around in the lobby, disturbing everyone else. I advise you to follow the owner's advice and don't try to challenge her bottom line. With her ability, it shouldn't be difficult for her to help you get rid of your bad luck."
Feng Yuanning: "..." Bringing bad luck? Haha, you're quite thoughtful. However, there's no need to reveal the truth.
The people who were reading in the lobby stood up immediately. They were reading for the martial arts techniques in the books. If they were really brought bad luck by the owner, who could bear it?
Some said, "I'm waiting for the owner to come downstairs so I can go to the restaurant for dinner."
Some said, "I was a little tired when I came here, so I'll take a short rest here and leave soon."
Some said, "Shopkeeper, please place your order. I want to eat."
Some asked, "Can't I just leave now?"
Those who had no money to eat quickly left the hotel, while those who had money to eat found reasons to stay temporarily.
Song Yuluan smiled at Feng Yuanning and said respectfully, "Shopkeeper, we are here to eat too. Can we order now?"
Feng Yuanning nodded and instructed the puppet Xiu'er, "Yes. Xiu'er, go take the customer's order first. After you've tallied the order, come back to me to collect the payment."
…
At the same time.
On the official road outside the Xianyuan Hotel, Boss Wang was driving an ox cart to deliver vegetables to the county as usual. Recently, the Ming family's restaurant business has been affected a lot, but this has little impact on Boss Wang.
He only needed to stop by Xianyuan Hotel to purchase some food and then resell it, and he could actually earn more than he did by delivering food every day in the past.
When passing by Xianyuan Hotel, he was about to get off the car to go shopping when he suddenly saw some people walking out of the hotel gate. Each of them was holding a book and reading while walking, with three other books tucked under their arms.
This book... looks very beautiful and exquisite. I wonder how that colorful cover was made.
I guess this is the immortal book brought by the owner of Xianyuan Hotel?
Boss Wang was a little curious and surprised, and looked at those who were reading with envy.
Books were very expensive. A handwritten book would cost at least one or two taels of silver. Although printed books were cheaper, they still cost several hundred coins each, and the handwriting was far inferior to that of handwritten books.
I wonder how much the books sold at Xianyuan Hotel cost. Given the owner's style, would he deliberately set the price of the books very low?
Boss Wang suddenly noticed that one of the Medical Valley disciples looked very familiar. He quickly waved and called out, "Doctor Xiao Ye, how much did you pay for this book? Is it expensive?"
Doctor Xiao Ye often came to Jishidiang in the county town to treat patients. Boss Wang had seen him before, and they happened to know each other.
Doctor Xiao Ye looked up at him and continued to stare at the pages, afraid to miss a moment. "I didn't buy it, I rented it from the store. It's only five cents an hour. Even illiterate people can read this book. While reading, you'll have the opportunity to comprehend the exercises mentioned in it. You might as well give it a try."
Boss Wang was stunned with shock.
Can illiterate people read this book? While reading it, can they also have the opportunity to comprehend the skills contained in the book?
Such a magical book, and it only costs five cents to read for an hour?
He knew that an hour was equivalent to half an hour.
As alarm clocks gradually spread to every household, almost everyone in the area knew that there were twenty-four hours in a day.
The shop owner never disappoints. For something that even these poor people need, she once again chooses to sell it at a low price to benefit more people.
When people coming and going heard this, they couldn't help but be interested. For five cents to read for an hour, there would be a chance to comprehend the skills in the book. Such a good thing would not come once in a lifetime.
No one thinks that they will never win a prize, just like game players always have the illusion before drawing cards that they will definitely draw an SSR next time.
Ordinary people like Boss Wang, who had not known the news, walked into the store one after another.
While Feng Yuanning was processing library cards for the guests, she asked the puppet Xiu'er to be responsible for the restaurant's orders and statistics, and finally she, the owner, was responsible for the cashier.
Unexpectedly, she found that more and more customers came in to queue up.
She: "..." This is endless, isn't it? Fortunately, the library card only needs to be applied for once, and the busyness is only for the initial stage, which is a blessing in disguise.
Boss Wang waited in line for a long time before it was finally his turn.
After getting his library card, he quickly walked into the reading room, took down a set of four volumes of The Return of the Condor Heroes, and immediately flipped through the pages, reading as he walked.
The words in the book look very small, but at the same time they are very clear. The words are not written vertically like in other books. The words in this book are actually written horizontally.
He carefully examined the words in the book and found that they were indeed not words he recognized. However, although he did not recognize these words, he could indeed understand the meaning of these words.
His mind was completely immersed in the book. Even when he was driving to deliver the vegetables, he couldn't help but open it and take a look from time to time.
After delivering the food, he drove home as fast as he could and sat at home reading a novel.
The story in this novel is so exciting that it is enough to make people addicted. He couldn't stop reading it.
As he watched, he was suddenly stunned.
He actually learned the "Nine Yin Scriptures"!
This "Nine Yin Scriptures" is too magical. He has never heard that a person's root bones and aptitude can be changed, but the "Yi Jin Duan Gu" chapter in the "Nine Yin Scriptures" has done it.
He actually learned such a miraculous mental method? !
Boss Wang was so excited that he could hardly contain himself and didn't know how to thank the owner.
The village where he lived was not far from the Medical Valley. If he had a little better talent or a little higher understanding, he would have become a disciple of the Medical Valley long ago.
Why do you have to make a living by farming and selling vegetables?
Unexpectedly, the shop owner has now opened another window for him, and he finally has the hope of becoming a warrior.
He was so excited that he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Ah! Ah!" The excitement in his heart was still difficult to relieve.
"What are you yelling about?!" Boss Wang's wife came out of the kitchen angrily, slamming the door. "Ever since you came home, you've been reading non-stop. I called you but you didn't answer. I asked you to do something but you pretended not to hear. And now..."
"I can practice now. I can become a warrior!" Boss Wang stood up excitedly, so excited that he wanted to jump up and down, as happy as a 200-pound child. "It's this book. Do you see it? It's from the Xianyuan Hotel. It helped me understand a martial arts technique."
Boss Wang's wife was stunned. Seeing how beautiful the book was, she initially believed it a little: "Are you serious? You can really practice cultivation?"
At this moment, the shocked voice of the neighbor next door came from outside the house: "Boss Wang, did this book really help you understand a new mental method? How much is it? Is it expensive? I want to buy it too!"
"The Fairy Garden Hotel is selling books again?" Another villager, an elderly, white-bearded man living nearby, came over upon hearing the noise. He looked accusing and asked, "Why didn't you tell everyone about this earlier? Let's go, tell everyone in the village! If we can have more warriors, who will dare to bully us again?"
The news spread quickly in the village. All the villagers, including Boss Wang's wife, took their own money and rushed to the Xianyuan Hotel.
…
Feng Yuanning finally finished taking care of the guests and didn't even have time to eat breakfast. He immediately went to the ice spring in the backyard to practice.
She is familiar with the Nine Yin Manual.
With the help of the five-fold training speed, she successfully completed her first training session, and a thin strand of true qi appeared in her dantian.
Now, she has finally become a warrior and is no longer the ordinary person she used to be.
She felt as if she had become a lot lighter, and her whole body seemed to be filled with endless energy.
It turns out that warriors are different from ordinary people. No wonder those warriors are full of energy every day, sleeping later than dogs and getting up earlier than chickens.
Is this the evolution of life levels?
She excitedly tried to take a deep breath and jumped up, and sure enough, she jumped much higher than usual.
However, she had too little internal energy, and she was unable to continue. She jumped halfway and fell down in a mess.
However, when she landed, she felt a cushioning force and landed on the ground unscathed without suffering any injury.
I'm afraid it's the invincible aura protecting her again.
Feng Yuanning happily left the backyard and returned to the lobby. He was shocked to see that a large group of guests had arrived. They were timidly crowding in the lobby, looking around awkwardly.
Judging from their clothing and attire, these people should not be warriors, but just ordinary working people.
The leader was a middle-aged man. When he saw Feng Yuanning, he immediately stepped forward and bowed deeply, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Shopkeeper, thank you for your gift. I have already comprehended the Nine Yin Manual. Do you have any instructions for me?"
This middle-aged man is Boss Wang.
People kept coming to thank her, and Feng Yuanning was almost numb. "No need to thank me, and no need to repay me. Have you started practicing yet?"
"Not yet." In order to notify all the villagers, he had not had time to start practicing.
Feng Yuanning immediately started promoting the Ice Spring: "Well, why not go to the Ice Spring in my shop to practice? There's a promotion going on right now. If you break through a realm in the Ice Spring, you'll get ten potatoes. I have a customer who's buying potatoes at a high price. Ten potatoes can be exchanged for five taels of silver. You might want to give it a try."
"Five taels of silver?! Thank you for the reminder, shopkeeper. I will go to Bingquan to practice right away." Boss Wang was even more grateful to her.
Feng Yuanning walked over to the counter and sat down, pointing. "See that machine over there? Go buy a ticket there. It's five cents per entry. If you don't have enough silver, go to the restaurant over there and find a girl named Ke Bingling. She's the one who buys potatoes. You can get an advance from her. Is everyone else here to get a library card? Line up, one by one."
"Thank you for your concern, shop owner. I am very grateful. I have brought enough money." Boss Wang bowed to her again, walked quickly to the glass door leading to the backyard, and happily went to the ice spring in the backyard to practice.
The other villagers lined up obediently, and no one dared to disobey Feng Yuanning's orders.
After processing library cards for the villagers, Feng Yuanning added several hundred sets of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" to the reading room, and then walked into the restaurant with happy steps.
Now, she no longer needs to read novels. Perhaps, she can try to complete the new mission that was just unlocked yesterday.
Normally, if the restaurant business is good, it can accommodate nearly two hundred people.
If she launches some promotional activities today, she should be able to complete this task within today and get the insulated takeout packaging boxes as soon as possible.
Feng Yuanning thought for a moment, opened the system's virtual interface, and added a new bounty task: "Before midnight tonight, the first two hundred customers who purchase Rose Ice Jelly will receive a 50% discount, meaning a bowl will cost only ten cents."
Customers who order ice jelly do not need a seat and can drink it while standing in the store, which is the best choice to meet the demand.
As a ruthless quest-pulling machine, as long as the quests are completed, what does it matter if I earn less money? This little bit of money will be earned back in the blink of an eye. After all, the quests are more important.
After setting up the bounty task, Feng Yuanning took two steps forward and suddenly realized that the ready-made customer was right in the hotel.
A bowl of ice jelly costs ten cents. These villagers who come to apply for library cards can afford it, right?
