Chapter 248 The Inn is Consuming

The shopkeeper of Fulai Inn heard the butler's words and took a sip of tea, he felt relieved. The village owner signed the letter and wanted to give him money, so he was not easy to talk.

The shopkeeper of the Fulai Inn took a few sips of tea and asked the butler: "Butler, how about the village owner?"

The housekeeper heard him ask the village owner and asked, "What are you asking about the village boss?"

The shopkeeper replied: "Nothing, just ask."

"Ask?" said the housekeeper, "What's wrong? Are you worried about him and don't give you money?"

The shopkeeper replied, "The butler is right, I am worried." After saying that, "Butler, do you say that the village owner signed the letter, will you not give the money?"

The housekeeper said: "It shouldn't be. The village owner won't owe you that little money. Don't talk about signing, even if you don't sign, he will give it to you."

The shopkeeper heard this and said, "I think the village owner is not that person either, I may be a little too careful."

The housekeeper took a sip of tea and said, "It is natural for people to be very concerned. I always have more thoughts to the village owner."

The shopkeeper drank tea and listened to the butler's words, and he resonated with him like a soulmate. He said, "The butler is often too concerned about people?"

After hearing this, the butler asked, "Why, you are too concerned about people even if you are fine?"

The shopkeeper looked at the butler with a teacup, and was like a turtle looking at mung beans. The butler also stared at him with the same look. The two of them only stared for a few seconds, and the shopkeeper said, "Butler, it turns out that you are also a scheming person."

The housekeeper said: "It's not a lot of thoughts. It's okay for normal times, think about it."

The shopkeeper heard this and said, "If you don't care too much, how big your heart is. We are almost the same, you and me are hiding it. You are more mindful than monkeys."

The housekeeper heard this and said, "The shopkeeper's praise is so praiseworthy. How can I compare to the monkey's sanity?"

The shopkeeper took a few sips of tea and said, "When the butler has enough tea, I will take the pen, ink, paper and ink, and go to the village owner with the butler to find the village owner."

The housekeeper tasted the tea and said, "Good place, drink good tea first."

The shopkeeper could not drink two cups of tea. He looked at the butler and poured this cup and that cup. He thought to himself, he could really drink it. The shopkeeper asked him for a moment, "Butler, when will you finish drinking?"

The butler did not look at him when he heard this, and turned his head to him halfway and said, "After drinking this pot of tea." The butler was also grinding, and he was worried that he would have to work early if he went back early. The village owner was there, so he would definitely not let him be idle.

The shopkeeper looked at the butler and said, "Butler, your account has been made in credit, are you not in a hurry?"

The housekeeper said: "If you can't hurry, you can consume energy. If you should wait, don't worry."

The shopkeeper didn't know what the housekeeper was worried about now, and he didn't understand it in his heart. He just wanted to ask, "This account is all made in credit, what are you still going to waste and what are you waiting for?"

The housekeeper sipped the tea carefully and said, "It's not easy to tell you, and it has nothing to do with you. Drink tea."

The shopkeeper didn't say anything, and he didn't ask if he had nothing to do with him. He stood there with his arm on the counter, just waiting for the butler to finish drinking a pot of tea.

The butler was really grinding, tasting tea and watching the guests in the store eat and drink.

The shopkeeper waited for energy consumption, and the shopkeeper waited for a while, and was a little anxious, and said to the shopkeeper: "Butler, can you still wait?"

"Wait." The housekeeper said and tasted the tea.

After waiting again, the shopkeeper said, "Butler, let's go."

"Wait a little longer." The housekeeper replied.

After waiting for a while, the shopkeeper was a little impatient and said, "Butler, go, don't wait. Let's sign the letter early."

The housekeeper was not anxious at all and said, "It's okay, wait a little longer."

"Wait?" The shopkeeper looked at the butler.

"Wait." The housekeeper said.

The housekeeper was consuming at Fulai Inn. However, he said that after the order of the village owner, a yamen runner returned to the village stable and pulled two carriages. How could he do the two carriages? It was easy to do it. He tied the rope of a horse behind the carriage, and just sat in the carriage in front and drove the horse. He walked smoothly and went straight back to the village owner.

When the village owner saw the carriage coming, he got up and said to the construction worker: "Come on, take the two of them and put them on the street into the carriage. Get all the unnecessary ones on the carriage and let them take them away."

The yamen runner pulled the carriage to the rag thrown by the construction workers. The construction workers looked at each other. The short second-child boy from other places called the tall young master Long and said, "Mr. Long, let's do it on the carriage and let them throw it directly on the carriage."

The tall dragon master glanced at the rag that was thrown on the street and said, "Okay, let's do it on the street."

The construction work was busy, and the shopkeeper and the two servants were also busy. The village owner did nothing and didn't pick up a single brick. He sat there and watched, occasionally saying a few words.

They are not quick to work, and they pretend not to be able to hold anything. They don’t touch it, and they don’t ask anyone to do it together.

Everyone was doing this, and the two carriages were not yet loaded. The yamen runners who went to the south gate of the village were driving a carriage, and there was a carriage behind them. Two gatekeepers were driving them. Both carriages were loaded with things, a bunch of construction items.

The village owner stood up and walked forward, looked and said, "Where should I put these things?"

Everyone looked at the two carriages. The yamen runner jumped down and walked up to the village owner and said, "The village owner, you have got everything. Call two people to help unload it."

The village owner looked at the construction items on the two carriages, looked around, and finally looked at the shopkeeper's yard, and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, how about putting all the construction items on your house?"

The shopkeeper said, "It's okay, let it go to my yard."

The village owner said: "Your home has a warehouse. It is best to put those things in the warehouse at night, so don't let someone steal them."

The shopkeeper heard this and said, "It's okay to put it in the yard, and there are not many people taking that thing."

The village owner said, "It's not that there are not many people who take it. We are using it. If someone takes it, how can this house be built?"

The shopkeeper also heard that those things are not good, but they really have to rely on them to build houses. If they are gone, it means that the construction workers have no place to do their jobs.

The shopkeeper said, "Then put it in the warehouse directly, take it when you use it, put it in after use. I'll open the door." After the shopkeeper said, he went.

The village owner said to the construction workers: "You guys, find some of the things you use now, so that you can smash the walls and clean up. Throw the rest to the warehouse."

The construction workers all went to the carriage and found what they could use now, such as big hammers, iron troughs, shovels, and other fields.

There were many people and they were quick to take. Seeing that they had taken everything they should take, the village owner said to the two yamen runners and the two gatekeepers: "You four, throw them on the carriage without using the land, and throw them into the warehouse."

Two yamen runners and two gatekeepers took the carriage that was not available now and they all went to the warehouse. The shopkeeper held the door and said, "Don't worry, just throw the things in."

The soldiers guarding the yamen runners took things and did not throw them around. They put them in neatly. The things in the village yamen were from the village yamen, and the things that should be from his house were from his house. The two were not mixed.

The shopkeeper praised: "My men and women, the work is so beautiful, and the rags are all placed in such regular manner."
