While the old man repeatedly pleaded guilty, he quickly let Li Qingyu and others into the room.

Entering the door is a dining hall with many tables, chairs and benches. There is an old counter in the northwest corner with abacus, account book, pen and inkstone on it. Except the account book, everything exudes the flavor of antiquity. Li Qingyu can see that it is all antiquities.

But now these antique furniture have been brutally damaged. A corner of the counter has been cut off, and the shelf has obviously been split in two from the middle. Although it has been repaired now, the traces of repair are very obvious, and Li Qingyu can see them at a glance.

There is also a back door in the hall. When you look through the back door, you can see a big yard behind. There are several bungalows near the wall, which should be warehouses, kitchens, stables and so on.

It can be seen from all this that this used to be a hotel of good scale, but now it has become like this. There are few guests in front of the door. However, as soon as so many of them enter the room, the originally deserted store immediately becomes popular.

As soon as the old man entered the room, he rushed to the back door and yelled: "Dakang, come out quickly. Come out quickly and see who's coming. It's not those evil bastards, it's heavenly soldiers, it's heavenly soldiers that we look forward to every day! Take Da Kang out, too. Xiao Bao comes to play with him. "

A young woman in her thirties came in through the back door with a little boy and bent down to salute the crowd. The little boy and Xiaobao are about the same age, about seven or eight years old, but he is hiding behind his mother and does not dare to come out. He just shows his little head. His black eyes turn around on Li Qingyu and others. When he sees Xiaobao, he quietly waves to Xiaobao, obviously calling Xiaobao to his side.

Xiaobao walked to the little boy in three or two steps. Without waiting for Dakang to speak, he pulled him out from behind the young woman and said, "Dakang, don't be afraid. They are not bad guys, they are heavenly soldiers! Does Tianbing know? Heaven's soldiers, heaven's generals, are specially used to fight bad people! "

This little guy had never heard of the name of Tianbing before, but he had heard of the Tianbing Tianjiang in the fairy tale, and he kept talking to Dakang.

Obviously, he is very proud to know Tianbing first.

Dakang is still a little afraid. He doesn't dare to say hello to Li Qingyu and others. He just looks at them timidly.

The old man pointed to the young woman and said, "she is my daughter-in-law, surnamed Chen. This is my grandson, Liu Dakang. My name is Liu Taikang. Just call me Liu Taikang. You sit and chat first. The family will cook for you. Originally, there were several clerks in the shop, but since the great changes happened to my family, it was difficult to make ends meet, but they could not afford to hire any more clerks, so they were all dismissed. I'm sorry for them. Up to now, I still owe them a month's salary. They are also good people. Knowing the difficulties of our family, they have never asked for help. Alas... "

With a sigh, the old man once again denounced Li Qingyu and others. He was about to take his daughter-in-law and grandson to the back kitchen, but Li Qingyu caught him.

"The old man is so old that you don't have to come to cook in person. There are so many of us, just let my sister-in-law call for some help. We still have many things to ask the old man. Why don't we just sit down and have a chat?"

As soon as Li Qingyu's voice fell, several women, such as Lin Jingya and Tang Sixin, scrambled to say, "let's go to the kitchen to help. We just follow my sister-in-law to learn a craft. My sister-in-law must not hide."

Several women surrounded Dakang's mother and walked back to the yard. Dakang's mother waved her hands in fear and said, "I can't do it! I can't make it! You are all immortal figures. How can you go to the kitchen? "

"Ha ha, look what my sister-in-law said. We are all women, just like you. What kind of immortal? Let's go. Let's go. We want to learn a few more tricks from you. "

"That's to say, you can't help yourself. We have nearly 400 people!"

A group of women chirped away.

The hotel is divided into upstairs and downstairs. The business area is still very large, but it can't hold Li Qingyu and other people. There are more than 370 people. Finally, even the backyard is full of people. People just make arrangements.

Liu Taikang looked at the people who were almost full of restaurants, but his face was sad and he laughed awkwardly. He said, "gentlemen, there's a fact that I'm sorry to speak. Although I'm running a restaurant, but..."

Without waiting for Liu Taikang to finish, Zhou Xianguang immediately waved his hand and said, "brother, I know what you mean. Is there not enough food in the store? Is there a place to buy it in the small town? I'll have someone buy it. Come back and process in your hotel. Don't worry, the processing fee is not without your brother. "

Zhou Xianguang has noticed this problem for a long time. They are more than 400 people!

Don't say it's just such a hotel, even the modern hotel in the first space has to be reserved in advance, otherwise the hotel may not have so much stock for so many people.

When Liu Taikang heard Zhou Xianguang's words, he immediately said with a look of fear: "the Lord of the army is killing me. If you can have a meal with me, you will give me the face of the Liu family. How dare you ask for money. Now there is a shortage of food everywhere. We can't buy it in the small town market at all. We have to go to the black market, but the price of the black market is... "

"Price is not a problem, just buy something."

Zhou Xianguang called several soldiers and whispered to them. Then he took out a handful of gold coins and gave them to several soldiers to buy things on the black market.

Liu Taikang saw the glittering gold coins, but immediately said: "wait a minute!"

"What's the matter?" Zhou Xianguang asked in surprise.

"You may not know that our black market is called black market. In fact, the black market is run by local tyrants and evil gentry. They not only collude with the officials, but also collude with the military. They have done a lot of money and murder. When they see that you have gold, they may have evil intentions. Don't talk about gold. You'd better use copper instead of silver. " Liu Taikang said with a worried face.

Zhou Xianguang showed a trace of hesitation on his face and said, "that's not easy to do. We have only gold and silver, not much copper. Is there a place in the town where gold and silver can be exchanged for copper

Zhou Xianguang is not pretending to force. What he said is the truth. They led the virtual world in this expedition, but they got the support of the whole world. Some people gave people and the rich gave money, so the funds were quite sufficient.

They know that the currency in circulation in lingxu is gold, silver and copper. Because copper is worthless and takes too much space to carry, they mainly carry gold, not even silver. Now let them use copper to buy things, they really don't have it.

With a bitter smile, Liu Taikang said, "yes, but I can't go."

Zhou Xianguang and others immediately understood that even the black market can't buy things with gold. I'm afraid that if we exchange gold, it will arouse the suspicion of the government. Where can a common people get so much gold?

Several people were in a bit of a dilemma, but Deng Yuqi had already taken over the gold and said, "if you want to exchange money for a bird, you can go to the black market to buy things with gold. I'll go myself. I'll see which dog day dares to see money and give me advice! They don't want to trouble Laozi. Laozi still wants to trouble those grandchildren! It's better for all their troops to come here, and we'll give them a pot to eat, so that they won't be harmed. "

"Lao Deng is right! Who dares to stab his head will cut him off Ah Cheng also yelled.

"Why must it be dog day, not donkey day? There's something wrong with that. It's too bad. " Ah Xin said very tasteless.

Three guys called on a dozen people, swaggered away.

Zhou Xianguang looked at the back of the three guys and felt something wrong.
