Chapter 594 So, how do we find the Awakening Flower?
Soon, the dwarf brought out a dessert, which Xuanyuan Badao happily finished in a few bites.
Xuanyuan Batian and the others had finished their meal and were still sitting in their seats, probably wanting to hear more news. However, the dwarf soon came over: "Honorable guest, please pay the bill."
Xuanyuan Batian was taken aback, but then readily stood up and obediently handed over the gold coins.
The dwarf weighed it in his hand, then frowned: "Honorable guest, you should pay 2500 gold coins, but we only have 2000 gold coins here."
Xuanyuan Batian was taken aback: "Three bowls of porridge, two dishes, and a plate of steamed buns, that's exactly 2000 gold coins. Didn't we already calculate that?"
To avoid being ripped off, he confirmed his order with the dwarf before ordering.
The dwarf's face fell: "Honorable guest, have you forgotten that you just ordered a dessert? That will cost an extra 500 gold coins!"
Xuanyuan Batian: "Isn't the dessert free? I confirmed with you twice."
Dwarf: "What? What? Why is it free? I clearly said it wasn't free! Fine, you want to dine and dash!"
Xuanyuan Batian was speechless.
The little man started throwing a tantrum: "Boss, someone's trying to dine and dash! Call the police!"
Before Xuanyuan Batian could say anything, two people came up from downstairs.
It was the village guard from before.
The two guards rushed over: "Oh, it's you again! Why are you always disturbing the peace? Arrest you!"
Lu Xingchen was also shocked.
She witnessed a farce firsthand.
She heard it clearly at that time. The dwarf said that the dessert was free. Unexpectedly, he not only turned his back on her, but also called the police.
It's obvious without even thinking that these two guards are definitely on the side of the natives.
Xuanyuan Batian had been extremely cautious, but the dwarf still dared to distort the truth and call a deer a horse in front of so many people.
But the natives eating there just laughed gleefully, and not one of them testified for Xuanyuan Batian and his group.
Just as the two guards rushed forward, Xuanyuan Batian suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
He chuckled and said, "We were wrong, we accept the punishment, and we'll accept whatever the fine is."
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but look at him with new respect. After suffering a few losses, Xuan Yuan Batian quickly adjusted his mindset and became much smarter.
Xuanyuan Batian stuffed a small bag of gold coins into the guard's hand and said with a smile, "I just got a bottle of top-grade yellow wine, which can ward off the cold and keep you warm. I'm offering it to my two brothers. What do you think?"
The guard's eyes lit up: "You have top-quality Shaoxing wine?"
Xuanyuan Batian's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for Lu Xingchen to hear: "Yes, I do, but I want to ask about the Awakening Flower..."
Guard: "No problem, hahaha, come on, let's talk downstairs!"
The group went downstairs arm in arm.
Gao Dafu's eyes darted around, and he immediately stood up: "Xiao Lu, shall I go down and listen?"
Gu Yanzhi: "Top-grade yellow wine?"
Lu Xingchen shook his head: "No need."
Xuanyuan Batian obviously told her this information on purpose. It would be too late to look for the best rice wine now.
Xuanyuan Batian is quite capable; he figured out how to bribe the guards and obtain information so quickly.
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but stand up, wanting to walk to the window to see where Xuan Yuan Batian and the others had gone.
But just as he walked to the fish tank, he heard a voice: "Puff, puff, puff, he's been cheated again, and he's about to be cheated again. Another fool has taken the bait!"
Huh, where's that sound coming from?
Lu Xingchen was taken aback, then heard several chaotic sounds:
"Looking for the Awakening Flower? Why insist on giving those two drinks? Everyone knows we're the ones who know everything!"
"Yes, yes, we've been here for years, we've been to the market many times, what don't we know?"
"Puff puff puff, we are all-knowing little fish... La!"
Um?
Lu Xingchen looked down and saw the frolicking little fish in the fish tank.
Are they them?
She squatted down and stared carefully at the water surface in the fish tank.
She heard the voice again:
"Puff, puff, what a big face!"
"Someone's coming, someone's coming! Be good and stop chattering."
