Chapter 93 High consumption

No one expected that the guide's words of "fast, quick" actually caused the group of people to ride yaks all the way into the night.

If you don't look at the time and only rely on the scorching sun that is still halfway up the sky to judge, no one will realize that it is already ten o'clock at night on this planet.

Dead Rock is a medium-sized town built in the hinterland of the plains.

The materials used in the entire town's buildings are local stone mines. After being divided by machines, they finally become cross-shaped stone bricks one after another. Houses built with this kind of stone bricks will have a unique pattern, which can be regarded as Local characteristics.

The building habits here are also similar. Almost all buildings are no more than three floors. The higher the building, the hotter it may be. Therefore, almost all are short buildings without roofs. There is a fixed distance between the buildings, forming a short The alleys and narrow roads are connected to the main roads, so the road conditions are quite complicated.

The population of the whole town seems to be quite large. Even at this time, due to the long days and short nights, there are still many local people doing business and working on the street. The main road is connected to the shop gates on both sides. At the tents on the roadside, the merchants put their products under the tents. Some of them were more active and shouted a few words to attract passers-by, but most of them lazily hid in the shade to rest or play with their neighbors. A betting game called Flying Saucer Cards.

In addition to these shops, there are also many hawkers who set up stalls directly at the intersection of the alleys, selling home-made ironware, handmade cloaks and boots, simple dry food, and a series of small businesses you can think of, and even some There are quite a few small divination sheds for occult divination, and you can see one almost every other section of the road.

The natives of Popler Star are also human beings like White Star, but their language is very different. They can communicate normally by relying on the optical brain.

Bai Xing listened carefully to the shouts of different goods on the road, and was shocked by the prices in Dead Rock Town.

It seems that the prices of basic goods are two to three times higher than those on other planets.

As for the yak team that entered the town, the locals just looked at them curiously and did not pay special attention to them.

The guide drove the yak team all the way to the Stone Man Hotel. Only then did Xu Min know that this hotel was also run by the guide's family. In a short period of time, he had already brought all eight travelers in the yak team to the hotel. Check in at your own hotel.

The whole hotel has two floors. The guide tied the yak to the tent in front of the Stone Man Hotel. He called his wife Shandia diligently, and his daughter Tinkerbell came out to help the tourists carry their bags and led them up the stairs. The door greets you as you enter.

Xu Min and Bai Xing had no luggage, so they walked in front easily. The people behind them filed in. The moment they entered the hotel lobby, they felt the heat all over their bodies was suddenly dissipated, leaving only a soothing shade. for this group of thirsty travelers.

The guide's ten-year-old daughter, Tinker Bell, was very sensible. She led all the guests to the rest area on the right side of the lobby and served them with ice-cold mint water to quench everyone's thirst. For a moment, the tired and hot passengers felt happy. All the anger was extinguished.

After everyone felt relaxed, the guide came up, rubbed his hands and introduced the charging model of their hotel to all the passengers.

"Dear guests, our Stone Man Hotel is divided into several types of suites. Now please allow me to introduce them."

"Single occupancy costs [-] SGD per person per day, double occupancy costs [-] SGD per person per day, quadruple occupancy costs [-] SGD per person per day. They are all exquisite suites with complete facilities and include breakfast, lunch and dinner."

Bai Xing hesitated and looked at Xu Min. One thousand three-star coins a day for each of them was really not cheap.

On the way here, she briefly paid attention to the local prices. After all, this is a Class IV planet. It stands to reason that the price of ordinary goods should be reasonably proportional to the average income of local people. Even in towns that receive a lot of tourist groups, The price of living is relatively high, but not that much higher.Unexpectedly, the daily price of a small hotel is comparable to that of a big star.

However, this guide can be regarded as good at business. The more people staying in the suite, the lower the single price per person is. He also comes with breakfast, lunch and dinner. If it is a four-person room, it costs [-] star coins a day, which is definitely a deal. Most people can still afford it.

"Two thousand eight star coins?! At this price, you can stay at the Royal Courtyard Hotel in Feiqi." After listening to what the guide said, a female voice suddenly expressed dissatisfaction from the right side of Bai Xing and Xu Min. of complaints.

Bai Xing and Xu Min looked toward the sound and saw a young girl about their age.

When Shirahoshi and the others found the Yak Squadron at the dock, this girl had already been waiting for the Yak Squadron. From then on, she put on her cloak and quietly flipped through the notebook in her hand. Until just now, Then he took off his hood and revealed his true face.

She is very delicate in appearance, with an oval face with big eyes and small lips. She has naturally curly yellow oval hair braided with a black knot at the back of her head. She has yellow skin and looks like she often basks in the sun.

She crossed her arms, holding the original notebook in her elbow, with a serious expression, obviously disapproving of the hotel's asking price.

The guide accompanied him with a smile and explained in a good voice, "Madam, you don't know, our local consumption tax is relatively high, so the prices are relatively high. You see, we are also responsible for the food supply for the day. Can I help you?" Guaranteed, you’ll get your money’s worth.”

As he said that, he seemed to be worried that he was not convincing enough, and added, "Look, there are eight of us here. If we discuss it, wouldn't it be possible to divide it into two four-person suites? In this way, it is not very expensive."

Bai Xing looked around, and many people's expressions seemed to be tempted.

It has to be said that this guide is still good at doing business. Not all tourists come with just four people. Most of them are teams of eight people like theirs this time. Most of them are unknown. In order to successfully stay in four Many people still choose to share a suite with strangers.

Once the majority of people show their intention, even if a few are vacillating, the chance of being persuaded increases.

After all, it’s so hot outside and everyone is tired. If you’re not familiar with the place, going to another hotel may not be cheaper than here.

If four people share a room, a four-person suite can earn more than a single room.

The girl who questioned was actually the first one to be persuaded. She looked around, her eyes firmly fixed on Bai Xing and Xu Min.

It was clear that they knew each other from the beginning.

The girl walked up generously and introduced herself in a clear and crisp voice, "My name is Shui Qingyi. If it's convenient for you, maybe we can live together."
