The King of the City

The man's attitude towards Lin Chen was very flat, and he didn't seem to be happy because of the business.

"Well, do you still have a room?" Lin Chen asked.

"There are rooms, we have plenty of rooms here." The man looked behind Lin Chen: "Did you come here on foot? I didn't see you driving."

"I still have a few friends. We were going to Huanyashan from this short road, but the tire was punctured on the road. Now the tire is out of air and can't go." Lin Chen briefly explained.

"Tire puncture?" The man narrowed his eyes: "It's unfortunate enough that you guys got a tire puncture on the road at night. Why are you so careless?"

"Can you repair the car here?" Lin Chen wanted to know if the black heart nails on the road were placed by this shop.

"No, it can't be repaired." The man shook his head decisively and said, "You need a contact person to help you change the tire, but you should also know some bad news, right?"

"What do you mean?" Lin Chen asked rhetorically.

The man pointed to Lin Chen's pocket: "Take out your mobile phone and see if there is no signal. Anyway, my wife and I's mobile phone has no signal and can't make calls."

"That's what you're talking about, indeed, my friend's cell phone and I have no signal." Lin Chen said.

Lin Chen immediately asked the man when the cell phone had no signal. The man said that it had been like this since yesterday morning. The cell phone had no signal. It was estimated that the nearby signal tower was struck by lightning, and no one responded, so he didn't come to repair it. .

In the process of chatting with this man, Lin Chen also learned that he is the owner of this hotel, and he and his wife run this 'Happy Hotel'.

"How much is the room fee for one night?" Lin Chen asked.

The shop owner looked at Lin Chen and said, "I have a good conscience in doing business in this shop. Five hundred yuan for a room is not a second price."

Five hundred yuan a night is indeed a bit expensive for a hotel in such an environment. Obviously, they are killing passers-by.

However, the husband and wife are doing a small business in this remote place, and it is normal to slaughter customers when a fat sheep is brought to the door.

Lin Chen was too lazy to bargain with him, so he said, "Okay, then leave me three rooms and I'll pick up my friend."

"You'd better pay the room fee first," the shop owner grinned. "Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be no room for a while."

"What do you mean? You just said that you have plenty of room here?" Lin Chen wondered.

"It is abundant now."

The shop owner pointed at the cars at the door and said, "Did you see those cars? Those people are also going to Huanyashan, but the road and bridge to Huanyashan in front were flooded, and the tide didn't ebb. They can only return to my side to settle down, and some people will definitely come back because they can't leave, so I said you'd better pay the room fee, otherwise there will be no room for a while, so you can't blame me."

When he heard this was the reason, Lin Chen didn't say anything, took out [-] yuan from his pocket, and put the money on the counter.

The shop owner immediately counted the money with a smile on his face. After losing, he said, "That's right, [-] yuan, and another [-] yuan deposit for each room."

Lin Chen took out another [-] yuan to the shop owner. The shop owner took the money and shouted to the door next to the counter, "Wife. Come out and open the receipt."

"I'm coming……"

Soon, the proprietress of the store came out of the back room. The proprietress was not like her husband. She held a dead face to Lin Chen at first. She smiled at Lin Chen and saw the money in her husband's hand. After that, I laughed even more happily. .

"One thousand five room fee, three hundred deposit." The shop owner said to the proprietress.

The proprietress agreed, opened the drawer, and took out a receipt book from it. The receipt book was very thick, and a thick receipt book was almost half used.

The proprietress quickly flipped through the receipt book, flipped through the previously issued documents, found the unused place, and wrote it with a ballpoint pen.

Lin Chen stared at the proprietress who was flipping through the receipt book, leaned against the front desk, and asked casually, "Why did you ask the proprietress to come out to open the receipt, can't you?"

The proprietress smiled slightly and explained, "My husband is illiterate and can't write, so of course he wants me to come."

"Oh, that's it..." Lin Chen stared at the proprietress who wrote the receipt and nodded, indicating that he understood.

While the proprietress was opening the receipt, there was the sound of an engine outside the door, and a man in a raincoat parked outside the hotel on a motorcycle.

A fat man got off the motorcycle. He flung the rain from his hair and rushed into the hotel.

"Are you staying at the hotel?" Seeing that a new guest came, the proprietress immediately asked with a smile.

The man who came on a motorcycle looked in his thirties, with a beard and not short hair. He didn't have much flesh on his face, but he was very fat.

"The road ahead can't go 0.8, come here to stay for one night." The man said in a hoarse voice.

He touched the rain on his hair and asked, "How much is the cheapest room of yours per night?"

"The cheapest three hundred, the good five hundred." The shop owner slapped.

When the fat man heard this, his eyes widened slightly: "It's so expensive, I thought fifty or sixty yuan a night would be enough for a remote hotel like yours."

The store owner showed a hint of impatience on his face: "If you think it's expensive, go to another store. The price is already very cheap."

The proprietress opened the receipt at this time, tore it down and handed it to Lin Chen. Lin Chen glanced at the receipt, and the words on it were a little crooked.

After putting away the receipt, Lin Chen walked out of the hotel.

Lin Chen walked out of the hotel. The man who came by motorcycle was still negotiating with the owner and his wife in the lobby of the hotel, but what they said was because Lin Chen couldn't hear it clearly because of the sound of rain.

Lin Chen took an umbrella and came to the open space outside the hotel. He turned his head and glanced at the entire hotel.

"Woooooooo..."

In the kennel next to the hotel entrance, the big yellow dog with chains around its neck purred, and those eyes looked at Lin Chen with a weak look.
