On the way to escape from natural disasters: She went crazy with space

It’s really grand!

There are so many people who love to sing about Quanzhou. Just look at their city gates.

When they stood in front of it, the first thing that caught their eyes was the tall and majestic city gate.

There are extremely solid city walls on both sides.

The city walls are so high that they seem like a ferocious dragon, guarding the city's peace and stability day and night!

There are two huge tigers at the gate of the city. The tigers open their mouths wide, and it seems that you can hear a tiger roar, which makes people feel scared!

The city gate in front of us is majestic enough, and the street scene inside must be so prosperous and dazzling!

They stood there, looking down at their ragged beggar clothes, which looked so out of place in this bustling city that they were too timid to move forward.

Until they saw a group of disaster victims who came from nowhere, who were dressed even more like beggars than themselves. When they saw the magnificent city gate, their tired eyes suddenly lit up, and like a dry desert seeing water, they rushed in without any fear.

They looked at each other, quickly tidied themselves up, and walked towards the city gate.

What surprised them was that there was not a single guard at the city gate!

However, they did not pay too much attention to this as their attention was attracted by the dazzling array of shops inside.

After passing through the city gate, we entered the city.

Lu Qingqing suddenly looked back and saw a thick layer of dust where the guards at the city gate were standing guard.

It was obvious that the guards had been evacuated long ago.

It seems that this poem about Quanzhou is not as simple as it seems.

After traveling for such a long time, everyone was exhausted and hungry.

After taking a quick look at the brightly lit shops in the city, I found a restaurant called Ruyi Restaurant to eat first!

The waiter at the restaurant saw that they were covered in dirt and were leading a tall black horse. He seemed to have never seen disaster victims dressed like this before. He was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal and greeted them warmly and loudly to take a seat.

"Dear guests, please come in. Would you like to stay in the hotel or have a meal?"

Lu Qingqing glanced at the old plaque at the door, looked at the small store that could only accommodate five tables of people, and asked in confusion:

"Do you have any accommodation here?"

The waiter Liang Pei asked them to sit down and immediately started talking:

"We have to have this. The economy is bad now and business is getting harder and harder. It's too monotonous to make a living just by eating, and we can't make much money. So I built five compartments in the backyard for accommodation."

"If you want to stay, you've found the right place. My place is clean and sanitary, and most importantly, the price is affordable. Many disaster victims who came to the north to make a living have stayed at my hotel. When they came to the north, none of them didn't say good things about it."

Lu Qingqing was very good at grasping the key point of this sentence: "Boss, did you open this store yourself?"

Liang Pei smiled, asked them to sit down, and took the menu from the next table to show them, then said with some pride:

"Yes, this shop was handed down from my ancestors. My parents passed away a few years ago, and the shop fell into my hands. I can't make much money, but I can't give up my ancestral business, so I have to keep it and make a living."

Yang Liuqing interrupted at the right time: "You are so young, but you run this big store by yourself. It's not easy!"

"That's nothing, I'm used to it."

In the past few years, he has been busy all the time and has indeed become accustomed to it. He does not find it tiring, but rather enjoys the busyness.

Liang Pei casually draped the sweat towel over his shoulders and urged them to look at the menu and order.

Everyone was already starving and just wanted to fill their stomachs as quickly as possible, so they casually ordered five bowls of large bowls of soup dumplings.

Unexpectedly, Liang Pei said: "You have good taste. This soup dumpling is the treasure of my store. You don't have to pay for the girl's meal today. I'll treat her." He pointed at Lu Yaoyao.

When Lu Yaoyao heard that it was free, her eyes lit up and she said sweetly:

"Thank you, boss. However, I don't eat much. Just give me a small bowl."

"Okay, I'm going to get busy. Please wait for a moment." Liang Pei ran to the kitchen at full speed and started working skillfully.

Lu Qingqing took advantage of this gap to look around the store inside and out.

The store is very clean, all the furniture is neatly arranged and spotless. It can be seen that the boss is a hardworking person.

His eyes left the furniture and slowly fell on Liang Pei who was busy in the kitchen.

He was a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Those thin lips opened and closed, and he spoke very fluently. He is indeed a good businessman!

Liang Pei didn't know what Lu Qingqing was thinking. After busying himself in the kitchen for a while, he brought up five bowls of soup dumplings.

Lu Yaoyao also had a large bowl. The girl said it was too much and she couldn’t finish it. But in the end, she even drank up all the soup!

This soup dumpling is truly the treasure of this restaurant!

The soup dumplings are the size of a child’s fist. The skin looks wrinkled, but it tastes smooth and refreshing. The fillings inside are also fresh and diverse, including pork, nuts, sesame seeds, dried vegetables, etc.

The flavor of the soup dumplings was just right, and everyone fell in love with it after just one bite. After finishing a whole bowl, they still felt like they wanted more!

But no one wanted to order another bowl. After all, since it cost money, they would try to save as much as possible.

After the meal, everyone felt sleepy and decided not to go out to look for another hotel. They just stayed at Ruyi Restaurant.

Lu Qingqing asked: "Boss, how much does it cost to stay here for one night?"

"Three hundred coins a night for a room."

Lu Qingqing nodded: "It's not expensive, give me three rooms."

"Okay." Liang Pei brought three sets of keys and took them to the backyard.

When you arrive at the backyard, there is a corridor. After passing the corridor, you can see five rooms standing side by side, and there is a small courtyard in front.

Liang Pei opened the doors of three rooms for them to see. The furniture inside was complete, and the bedding on the beds was folded into tofu blocks, which looked quite comfortable indeed.

Seeing that Lu Qingqing looked very satisfied, Liang Pei asked, "By the way, how long do you plan to stay before heading north?"

Lu Qingqing thought about it and decided that it was not urgent to go to Chongzhou City, so she said, "Three days."

Liang Pei frowned when he heard this, and glanced outside inadvertently, saying:

"Let's stay for two days. The weather is unpredictable right now. We don't know if the snow will come again. It's better to get going early. It would be bad if we get stuck here."

As soon as he finished speaking, several people looked at Liang Pei.

To be honest, it was the first time they had seen a boss who actively pushed customers away.

But Lu Qingqing always felt that he seemed to have something hidden in his words but was afraid to say it out loud!

Why not?

Is someone watching him?

Lu Qingqing was full of doubts, but she didn't dare to ask rashly for fear of causing trouble for him.

After the three upper rooms were ready, Liang Pei prepared to go out to the front to entertain the guests.

Lu Qingqing followed him out the door to get something, and asked him to help look after the horses. But before Lu Qingqing could say anything, Liang Pei suddenly said to her in a low voice:

"Yongquanzhou is conscripting men. Now that you have prepared everything in the city, you should set off quickly. The government officials conscript men every five days. In three days, they will come to conscript again!"
