We agreed to be a tour guide, how did it become the law of nature?
Chapter 444 Variables
In fact, not only these people, but even Sanyueqi and Xing who were watching on the sidelines were dumbfounded. This was too unfair!
The dishes served by the waiter were colorful, fragrant and delicious. They could sense from a distance that they must be delicious.
"Gudong." Sanyueqi swallowed his saliva and looked at the people around him with some interest, "How about we eat something too?"
At this time, the innkeeper also noticed the strangeness of the travelers and walked over with a smile: "Don't worry, eat, just treat it as making friends, I won't charge you any money."
The waiter also stretched out his paw to pick up the jar of wine and poured a bowl for each of these people.
So after expressing their gratitude profusely, the group of people stopped hesitating and started to eat voraciously.
Judging from the expressions of enjoyment on their faces, the food on this table was indeed delicious.
"Let's go." Tingyun didn't find anything unusual for the time being, and the food these people seemed to be eating seemed to be normal.
There's no point in staying here any longer. The aroma of the food makes me even hungrier.
So a few people returned to the room and took turns to keep watch all night.
I originally thought that something might happen at night, but unexpectedly, the whole night passed without any incident.
Not only that, when March 7 and the others left the room and went downstairs, they saw the group of disheveled travelers who came to the inn yesterday. Today, they had changed into clean clothes and were eating breakfast while chatting and laughing with the inn's waiter.
Judging from their condition, they didn't seem to be in any trouble.
Tingyun suddenly fell into deep thought. According to common sense, these people had no money and accepted food and accommodation from the innkeeper last night, which should have triggered the third rule.
Transactions can be made with copper coins, or other equivalents.
Moreover, after inquiring, it was found that these people in Qingyun Town, or the unknown existence, seemed to prefer that the trading partner did not have any copper coins, so that they could get the so-called equivalent things.
So what price did this group of people pay?
Tingyun stared at them intently, but couldn't see anything for the time being.
Because on the surface, these people are doing fine, as if they haven't encountered any trouble.
"I will never forget your kindness, boss." At this time, the leader of the group of travelers clasped his fists towards the innkeeper and smiled bitterly, "It's just that my brothers and I lost all our money in the fog, and we have nothing to repay you. If you don't mind, please let us work here for a few days to pay off our debts."
Hearing this, the innkeeper standing behind the counter raised his head and said, "I was once a person in trouble. Eating and drinking well is the greatest reward for me. As for the idea of doing short-term work, forget it. You will definitely put in more energy than your value at work if you feel sorry for it. This is not an equal transaction."
The traveler thought the other person's words made sense, but he couldn't leave without losing face, so he said, "Then my brothers and I will go around town today. We can always find a suitable job and settle the bills for the past two days."
Hearing that he was determined to repay the favor, the innkeeper groaned and said, "That's good. The county government is in need of a few escorts, and there's also the medicine shop in town... the ancestral hall... you can go and try."
Not only did the group of travelers hear these words clearly, but even San Yueqi, Tingyun and others heard them clearly.
"It turns out that I can work and make money in town. Then, we don't have to worry about pennies anymore, right?" Sanyueqi felt excited. It was only the second day, and he only had two pennies left.
Not to mention food, even accommodation was only enough for two nights, so it was impossible to hold on to the end.
Now it seems that we have learned information from the innkeeper that can help us get more copper coins. How can we not be excited?
However, Tingyun felt something was wrong. Was the innkeeper really so kind as to let him earn copper coins? Or was there some unknown information hidden in this? Copper coins should not be earned so easily.
In short, as the innkeeper who is on the opposing side, there is no reason for him to easily reveal information that is beneficial to them.
But now there are no new rules, and Tingyun is not sure what the problem is.
The pressure of the copper coins is indeed a bit great. If they don't solve this problem, they can only hold on for another two days.
At this time, Bai Heng rubbed his shriveled stomach and asked, "Should we eat something today?"
After not eating for a day and a night, everyone really felt a little overwhelmed.
Just then, the waiter of the inn came over, showing his iconic rat teeth: "Would you like to eat something today, my dear guests? The kitchen has some pheasants that were just hunted two days ago, which are now being slaughtered and stewed. If you want something substantial, there is also a casserole of meat stewed on the stove."
"Gudong."
As soon as he said this, thinking about the delicious food those people had eaten last night, San Yueqi couldn't stop drooling.
"No need." Tingyun refused calmly.
Seeing this situation, the waiter did not try to persuade them, but changed the subject: "I see that you all don't have much money, why don't you help out in the kitchen today? There were too many mountain products delivered a few days ago, and I can't handle it all by myself."
"Don't worry, the shopkeeper will definitely agree." The waiter nodded towards the counter.
At this time, the innkeeper without facial features also nodded to San Yueqi and his companions.
"Is food provided?" San Yue Qi licked his lips, somewhat tempted.
The waiter shrugged: "I don't need to charge you."
San Yueqi was just about to discuss it with Xing, Tingyun, and Bai Heng, but Tingyun was the first to speak and said to the waiter with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness. We will ask if there is any need."
After saying that, she did not explain and pulled San Yue Qi and others out of the inn.
Looking at the backs of several people, the smile on the waiter's face disappeared without a trace, and his eyes were filled with infinite coldness.
……
"The food in the inn must not be eaten." After coming outside, Tingyun gave a direct conclusion and then explained: "From the time we entered Qingyun Town in the plot to now, except for those few tourists, we have never seen the boss and the waiter eating in the inn."
"And it's not just these two people. Even other residents in the town have never been to the inn."
Counting the day in the plot, today is actually the third day that Tingyun and the others have come to Qingyun Town.
After yesterday's observation, there is only this one inn in the town. If everyone, even the innkeeper and the waiter, do not eat in their own inn, it is enough to explain the problem of the inn.
Of course, it is also possible that the NPCs in the plot world do not need to eat at all, but Tingyun is more inclined to the first situation.
