Chapter 108 Hard Work Overcoming Suffering
"Since Lord Kongtiao wants to choose the most expensive one!" Si Cheng Liu Hao deliberately pretended to be fierce, and half-jokingly said to Bao'er: "Then don't blame me for being cruel!"

"You can do whatever you want, if you think it's too expensive, I'll lose!"

So, Master Si Cheng took the twenty or so members of the Hosokawa family and left the post in a leisurely manner.After a while, he stopped next to a three-story building with a large area not far from the Fanbang Post House.

"This is the most famous Guanhai Tower in Ningbo. After much deliberation, this is the only place that meets the 'most expensive' requirement put forward by your envoy." Liu Hao counted on the Hailou and said, "Let's start from From the outside, this Wanghai Building only has three floors, but in fact it has hidden secrets, and it was built in a pattern of 3 bright and 5 dark."

Bao'er waved his hand, and said boldly: "Don't mess with those useless ones, we know about Tengwang Pavilion, which is 3 bright and 7 dark! I just ask if it's good here, whether it's expensive, whether the food is delicious, and whether the accommodation is comfortable or not." !"

"Hahaha! Needless to say, this is the best and most expensive place in Ningbo, with the most delicious food and the most comfortable accommodation!"

"That's it!" After finishing speaking, Bao'er took the lead and walked into the lobby of Wanghai Building.

However, Liu Hao, who was following Bao'er, felt that if the interpreter hadn't been wearing an official Japanese robe and had a surname of Kongtiao, he would have called this young master... no, it was a girl!Think of it as a dude who hangs out in the noble circle of the capital.

Bao'er, who walked into the lobby, didn't go to the counter, but slumped to the side of a table of eight immortals.He crossed his legs, one hand was still resting on the table, and four fingers tapped on the table in turn, making a series of "dang lang lang lang" sounds.

"Where's the shopkeeper?" Bao'er raised her head, looked around at the decoration of the front hall of Wanghai Building, and shouted in the tone of "I'm very rich": "The shopkeeper is full of distinguished guests, why don't you hurry up to pick up the customers! "

It's a pity that there are people coming and going in this lobby, but no one pays attention to Bao'er, and let him sit at the table of the eight immortals.The scene of being neglected made Bao'er blush a little, so he had to shout again: "No one came out and set fire to your shop!"

"Eh? Eh! Don't do anything, don't do anything!" A chubby shopkeeper walked out of the back hall with a smile. When he saw Bao'er, he was surprised by the Japanese official uniform he was wearing, and then he said again With a charming attitude, he bowed to Bao'er and said, "The little old man is in a small business, so please put this adult on the next horse!" A pot of good Yuqian Longjing.

"It's good to come out." Bao'er also put away her lazy posture, picked up the teacup and took a sip of new tea, and then said: "Not bad, it's really good tea." Saying this, Bao'er gently put down the teacup , and said again: "I don't know how many classes the shopkeeper's rooms can be divided into in this building, and what is the price?"

"To tell you the truth, the hotel is divided into four-class rooms. The lower room costs 360 yuan a day; the middle room costs 800 yuan a day; the upper room costs 1 tael and 2 yuan a day; there are also Tianzi suites, of course the price It is also the most expensive, and it costs 9 taels and 8 taels of silver every day." After finishing speaking, the fat shopkeeper also smiled, and kindly reminded: "This shop only accepts cash, and does not accept treasure notes!"

Bao'er nodded and said, "Not bad, how many Tianzi suites do you have in total, and how many people can each suite accommodate?"

"There are 9 sets in total, and each set can accommodate up to 5 people sleeping at the same time."

"Hey..." Bao'er sighed, then shook his head, and then called all the members of the mission into the lobby, and then said to everyone: "After all, this is not my home, so even if the conditions are difficult, everyone has to endure it." Forbearance, we must show the courage of our martial arts, carry forward the spirit of hard work, and resolutely overcome difficulties!"

When everyone heard Bao'er say that, they thought there was no room here, but there was no look of disappointment on their faces.

"The shopkeeper, do you still have the Tianzi suite here?"

"Yes, all 9 sets are here."

"Master Liu!" Bao'er asked Sicheng Liu Hao again: "How long do we need to stay in Ningbo?"

"The shortest is 7 days, and the longest is about 10 days."

After Bao'er thanked Liu Hao with a smile, he said to the shopkeeper again: "Tianzi suite, 9 sets, 10 days." As he said, Bao'er conjured 1400 silver dollars on the Eight Immortals table as if by magic, "There are almost 1000 taels of silver here. Except for the room fee, the rest will be used as our food and beverage expenses for the past few days. If it is not enough, you can ask your buddy to inform me to make up the money."

The fat shopkeeper picked up a silver coin and took a look. It turned out to be the most popular Dongbao silver dollar in the sea in the past two years. This kind of silver coin contains enough silver.At the same time, the boss was really surprised by Bao'er's magnanimity, and he judged that Bao'er's performance was definitely not slapping a swollen face to pretend to be fat.Judging from his confident eyes and calm demeanor, this man is indeed the richest of the richest.

After Bao'er watched the shopkeeper put away the silver dollars, he turned his head and said to the other members of the mission: "The conditions here are limited, and each room can accommodate up to 4 people. You each form a team, and 8 suites are enough for you to share."

After this scene, Liu Hao only felt that his outlook on the world, outlook on life, and values ​​had collapsed.He could only follow the group of "hard work and difficult customer service" to the top floor of Wanghai Tower step by step.

Outside the door of Tianzi No. [-] room, Bao'er turned around and stuffed a few pieces of tough rattan paper into Liu Hao's arms.He also said: "Please rest assured, Mr. Liu, what I will give you is not a bank note. So there is no bribery relationship between us."

Liu Hao took out the rattan paper and saw the words "Dongbao Chamber of Commerce Delivery Coupon" and "One Thousand Taels" written on it, but he didn't know the function of this thing, so he asked, "This is..."

"The pick-up coupons used by small merchants in the Dongbao Chamber of Commerce, as long as they take the pick-up coupons to the Dongbao Chamber of Commerce at any port, they can be replaced with goods of equivalent value. Of course, this is only produced by the Dongbao fleet this year. The new trick, the effect is not bad, and it saves many merchants from the trouble of moving around with their goods."

"Master Kongtiao entrusted these things to me, but do you have something important to ask?"

"There are indeed a few things, but none of them are important!" Bao'er walked into Room No. [-] in Tianzi, welcomed Liu Hao into the room, and continued: "Those coupons are not all yours, Mr. Liu. The roles of several other adults. For example, the guard and promotion of the Shibo Division, the Jinyiwei Qianhu who is responsible for maintaining the security of the mission, and the adults of the Beiwadu Command Post."

Liu Hao's eyelids twitched, thinking that Kongtiao Yui's appetite was really big, so he asked, "Master Kongtiao is planning to catch me all over Ningbo?"

"Haha, Mr. Liu has misunderstood!" Bao'er smiled and waved her hand, pulled Liu Hao to sit on the chair, and then explained: "I don't mean to let Ningbo up and down help me to run on the Da Nei family. , On the contrary, I hope that the adults will try their best not to provoke those bumpkins of the Ouchi Clan. You might as well think back to today's dinner, it really almost started a fight."

"Master Kongtiao's words are true. From what I've seen, the members of the Ouchi mission don't understand the rules and don't abide by the etiquette. They are all overbearing, as if we are all inferior to them."

"But as the old saying goes, the more a person lacks something, the more he pretends to be. What the Da Nei family lacks is self-confidence. Not only do they lack self-confidence, but they also have a low self-esteem in front of us who know the rules. That's why it happened at the banquet today. As long as we ignore them for a little bit, they will think that we look down on them. But if we communicate with them, once we make a fool of them, they will think that we are targeting him."

"According to Master Kongtiao's words, doesn't it mean that what I do at Honglu Temple is always wrong?"

"Then what does Lord Liu think?"

"Eh..." Liu Hao could only smile embarrassingly. He took a closer look and found that it was really as Bao'er said, what to do and how to do it wrong.

"So, the best situation is for all of us to work together to send them to the capital safely. If they want to make trouble there, of course, the Wucheng Army and the Imperial Army will take care of them."

"But..." Liu Hao asked hesitantly again: "What if they are disobedient and have to fight against each other?"

"In that case, we can still work together to find a reasonable and legal excuse..."

Bao'er made a knife with her hand, and slashed across the void.

"Kill them!" Liu Hao shouted in surprise!

Hearing Liu Hao's words, Bao'er was also stunned!

"Master Liu...you're really serious..."

"Don't kill them all?"

"Master Liu still thinks that the excitement is not big enough?"

"Then what are you cutting with your hand as a knife?"

"If you are knocked unconscious, you can tie him up and take him to the capital!"

Liu Hao stayed in Bao'er's room for a short time, then left Wanghai Tower with a wry smile and shaking his head.

Similarly, leaving with Liu Hao was a guy who had been cleaning up in the lobby of Wanghai Tower, and a diner who was drinking tea leaning on the railing on the second floor.The two came from different organizations, but both knew of each other's existence.Without interfering with each other, they left the inn tacitly and went to finish their work.

……

It was still snowing heavily on April 4th, making people alive?
