It was late at night and quiet, and there was no place for him to stay with his female confidante. He didn't want to break into Prince Chen's mansion at night and be shot into a sieve by countless crossbowmen, nor did he want to be criticized by Yun Hui again. He could only close his fan, fly up and down a few times, and then land in front of an inn that was still open.
He has no home to return to and can only stay in an inn. There is probably no one more pitiful than him in this world. When he entered the store, the shopkeeper was taking a nap. He suddenly came back to his senses when he heard the sound of knocking on the counter. He looked at the rich young man and swallowed his saliva: "Master Shen, why are you here?"
People in the capital may not know who the emperor is, but they definitely know the young master of the Shen family. The Shen family is the richest family, and the young master of the Shen family is the only child in the family. It is said that most of the Shen family's business has been managed by the young master Shen in recent years. Although he is a bit playboy and good families dare not marry their daughters to him, his natural good looks have attracted the favor of countless women.
The Shen family has many shops in the capital, so the shopkeeper naturally recognized him, but that was why he was surprised. It was rumored that Master Shen could not wear anything but silk, drink anything but sweet springs, and eat anything but the freshest ingredients. His food and clothing expenses were no less than those of the emperor.
There are countless merchants in the whole country, but no matter how rich they are, they cannot afford to wear silk. Only the Shen family spent all their wealth to help the late emperor conquer the Western Barbarians, so the only son of the Shen family was specially allowed to wear silk and did not have to observe all etiquettes. This shows how noble and favored he was.
It was rare for someone like this to pass by his door, but he didn't know how he got there.
"Your inn is quite good," Chen Tang looked around. He was not praising the furnishings, but the fact that the door was open at this time. "How much is the price of silver? I will buy it for you."
The shopkeeper stopped immediately, patted his chest several times before he regained his breath, and begged with his hands clasped, "Master Shen, this inn is the support of my family, and it cannot be sold."
Looking at him like a bully who oppressed the people, he said, "Your inn only has a few hundred taels when it opens. I'll give you a thousand taels and you can open another one somewhere else."
The shopkeeper's face suddenly turned pale, and he stopped breathing. His face flushed and he thanked him repeatedly: "Mr. Shen is really a man who knows what he is doing. I will get the land deed for you right away."
She looked so hurried, as if she was afraid that he would change his mind.
Chen Tang's clothes alone cost more than a thousand taels. It was a bit funny to see him acting like this. He sighed in his heart that "money makes the world go round" was indeed true. He paid the banknote, took the deed and went upstairs.
When they were halfway through the journey, the shopkeeper was a little nervous: "Mr. Shen, it is inconvenient tonight. Can we move to another place tomorrow?"
"I'll give you three days, no need to rush," Chen Tang went upstairs without stopping.
The shopkeeper was very grateful and kept calling him a good man.
The waiter was just working here, but he also knew that the boss had changed, and he hurriedly replaced the bedding according to Chen Tang's request: "Master Chen, ordinary inns don't use silk and satin. This quilt is also the newest, take a look..."
"Well, sure. Bring me some hot water. I want to take a shower and change clothes." Chen Tang was not obsessed with silk as the legend said. He just felt that silk was more comfortable. Who knew that the rumor would spread like that? He simply didn't bother to correct it. Anyway, no one would believe it even if he corrected it, and it would seem pretentious.
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and hurried away.
Lin Su dreamed of swimming in the middle of his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he found that the sound was coming from next door. This inn is mostly made of wood. Although it is sturdy, the sound insulation effect is really poor.
The sound of water didn't sound like someone playing in the water, but rather like someone taking a bath. Taking a bath when the moon was at its zenith, it seemed that someone was a very clean person.
After waking up from the dream, Lin Su felt a little less tired. He was not angry about such a small matter. He was just wondering who the person next door was.
06 A sentence interrupted his speculation: [Host, there is a sinking pond next door. ]
[He didn't sleep in a red-light district,] Lin Su's sleepiness completely disappeared. He didn't expect to meet her twice on the first day, and they even slept on the same level. If this is really fate, then it is really destiny.
The rooms in the inn are not a single structure, but are arranged in pairs. Some beds are separated by two rooms, while others are separated by only a wall.
Lin Su had no internal energy and his hearing was not very good. He could only vaguely hear the sound of water decreasing and the sound of the bed being pressed down. He knew that the peacock that had been plucked and washed was lying in the pot... no, on the bed.
But it was really vivid. Lin Su chuckled, but heard a vague muttering from the other side: "Is that person next door sick? His silly laugh in the middle of the night scared me so much that I shivered."
Lin Su's hearing was not good, but Chen Tang's hearing was quite good. He could not say that he could locate someone by sound or kill someone with his eyes closed, but he could hear some small noises that ordinary people could not hear. Naturally, he also heard Lin Su's chuckle clearly.
[06, please put it in the account.] Lin Su said with a smile.
I had originally planned to erase the incident of the young master listening to music in the music hall, but I didn't expect that fate would not allow it.
06 Perform duties diligently and observe a moment of silence for the richest man next door. Why complain about anyone else but the host? I wonder if the host is really petty and his mind is smaller than a needle tip.
Pitiful, sad, lamentable...
But it is still worth it to exchange a meat bun with some silver for a lifetime of wealth.
After a good night's sleep, Lu Guo woke up in the morning and had breakfast. He almost choked to death when he learned that the inn had changed owners overnight: "This is really rich, such a spendthrift!"
"This place has a great location," Lin Su said, eating his snacks while listening to 06's report that the peacock was fast asleep and probably wouldn't wake up until noon, so he didn't plan to see it again at this time. "If we can make it more beautiful, it will be packed with customers, and the investment will be recouped quickly."
Although Chen Tang is rich and luxurious, he is not a fool. Although he has inherited his family business and has become the richest man in the world, he cannot keep it without the ability, let alone develop it.
If you want to defeat such a peacock and make him remember it, you will have to put in some effort.
But it is not appropriate to meet again at this time. The reason why Bai Yueguang is Bai Yueguang is because the memory stays at the most beautiful moment. Judging from his current appearance, he will probably look downcast in that person's eyes, without any shining points. It is better not to see him.
"Oh," Lu Guo didn't understand those things, but was just curious, "You even understand this?"
"Well, I plan to do some business," Lin Su said with a smile.
"Don't you want to take the imperial examination? Scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans are of low status. It's a pity to give up such a good knowledge." Lu Guo really felt it was a pity. Although he looked down on those sour scholars, it was because they were too pedantic and could not reason with others.
But doctors are not subject to punishment. If he could have been illiterate, he would have taken the exam. If he had passed and became a scholar, he would not have to kneel before an official. Unlike Lin Su, who had a good career path but chose to become a slave.
"Scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans. You are not a scholar. You don't farm, work, or do business. It seems that you haven't even reached the fourth level," Lin Su analyzed to him calmly.
