The waiter glanced at it and said smugly, "That cake... there are three cake shops in the provincial capital. These shops never cooperate with anyone. If we want it, we have to have someone go there and queue up to bring it back for our visiting guests. You know, people in business value time very much. They only stay here for one night and leave in a hurry. Even if they've heard the cake is delicious, they won't stop to queue up. Our manager is very clever and has his kids go and queue up early to buy a few big cakes and put them in the inn. If you want one, just have one!"
"How much does it cost?" Su Jiaoniang asked.
The waiter raised his chin and pointed to the small triangular piece: "One tael of silver!"
"..." Goodness, this price could buy a whole cake.
She suddenly realized she couldn't afford to eat anymore.
"Don't look around if you can't afford it, you country bumpkin!" The people at the next table saw Su Jiaoniang's numerous greetings, but when it came to paying, she suddenly wilted and began to laugh at them with glee.
Su Jiaoniang turned her head to look over.
I don't know him!
Ignore it!
Chu Jiu and Shi Yi, who were following behind Su Jiaoniang, took out their curved swords, drew them out one section, and a flash of silver light appeared.
Those who were mocking immediately shut their mouths.
"Give me a serving of braised beef, pig's head meat, stir-fried tofu, stir-fried vegetables, and a meatball soup!" After traveling for two days and two nights, she and the two guards in black uniforms had been eating dry rations.
I am very tired now.
All she wants to eat is meat.
The waiter noticed that Su Jiaoniang had ordered expensive dishes, a mix of meat and vegetables, and didn't seem to care whether she bought a cake or anything else.
Wipe the table clean and let Su Jiaoniang sit down with the two men carrying knives.
At first, Chu Jiu and Shiyi didn't really want to sit at the same table as Su Jiaoniang.
They have a good understanding of their own identity.
The woman in front of them will eventually become their master's wife.
...
Moreover, they were the only two members of the Black-Clad Guards whose faces were visible to the outside.
In the future, they will probably become well-known figures, all thanks to the person in front of them.
Once the halo is on someone, it's not easy to take it off; they have great faith in Su Jiaoniang.
Su Jiaoniang is used to working with her teammates, but she is not used to being treated as a superior by others.
Before Su Jiaoniang could even try the braised beef, Chu Jiu took out a silver needle and stuck it into the beef. This was... quite cautious.
Although Zhuo Chu's actions seemed somewhat inappropriate here, Su Jiaoniang would not correct Chu Jiu's behavior. It may not look good, but this kind of cautious habit should be cultivated.
...
The waiter brought up the pig's head meat and happened to see the silver needles stuck in the plate.
A thousand curses uttered from his mouth eventually turned into: "Sir, you're quite amusing, huh!"
After a meaningful "hehe," they continued to serve tea and water, and pass chopsticks and dishes to this side.
Su Jiaoniang hadn't been taken care of like this in a long time.
It felt like stepping into Haidilao, a famous hot pot restaurant.
Other guests were not treated this way.
Su Jiaoniang instinctively felt that something was wrong.
Have the ninth day of the lunar month inspect the other dishes as well.
Only after confirming that it wasn't poisonous did I eat it with suspicion.
It wasn't until late at night that Su Jiaoniang realized why she was being treated so well.
The waiter brought in the bathwater she needed but did not leave.
Looking at Su Jiaoniang, he asked, "Sir, would you like any other services?"
"..." What are the other services?
Many colorful images flashed through Su Jiaoniang's mind.
Staring at the young man in front of him, he had already equated him with a little duck.
...
There's a good reason why this inn is doing so well!
The service of sleeping with someone has even developed.
“No need!” Su Jiaoniang immediately shook her head.
She really doesn't need someone to sleep with her.
If you really need it, wouldn't your partner at home be a good choice?
I doubt he would refuse.
A day has passed.
Su Jiaoniang began looking for a house. Since her main purpose in coming here was to do business, she needed a stable place to live.
At least, when I come back to check on the business, I won't have to stay at the inn every day.
Ganzhou Prefecture is a large and bustling place, so finding a suitable courtyard is not easy. However, if you are willing to pay a higher rent, that's a different story.
Su Jiaoniang wasn't very good at negotiating prices.
Their gazes fell on Chu Jiu and Shiyi.
Both of them shook their heads.
Su Jiaoniang finally looked at the curved knife in Chu Jiu's hand: "When we're negotiating the price later, you should draw the curved knife from time to time, and let the cold glint of it catch the eyes of the people in the middle."
"??" The Black-Clad Guards do some less-than-honorable things.
But this lack of brilliance is something I've never encountered before.
Chu Jiu looked at Su Jiaoniang: "Madam, are you serious?"
Do you think this could be fake?
"..." Chu Jiu nodded.
Su Jiaoniang looked at Eleven!
The eleventh person was a bit less principled: "I'll cooperate!"
The three went to find the middleman. The middleman was easy to find. He saw that the two men and one woman were not locals. The middleman smiled and thought, "Out-of-towners, fat sheep, easy to fleece!"
Eleven's eyes lit up!
He had shifty eyes, his gaze wandering around, and he would occasionally let out a lewd smile.
It's not a good thing; if it's really unacceptable, just cut it down.
Both of them had their own calculations.
They seemed to get along very well.
Su Jiaoniang took a fancy to a small house, consisting of a row of houses and two outbuildings. The east outbuilding was the kitchen, and the west outbuildings consisted of a storage room, not far from the outhouse in the southwest, and the other west outbuilding was the boudoir where the girl had lived.
