Chapter 88 Lively
  After replying to the people at the observation tower, Qin Jia stopped caring and continued to lead Qin Hao in line to set the trap.

When I saw the city lord's brother, who was in charge of managing the trap stall, I subconsciously wanted to please him.

But when he met Qin Jia's eyes with a smile that didn't reach the bottom of his eyes, he subconsciously shuddered.

He handed over the ten circles honestly, "Fourth Young Master, here, here are your ten circles. Each person can only have ten circles. Take whatever you get."

"Thank you uncle."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." The man smiled coquettishly.

In addition to fear, there was also a hint of sourness in my heart. The city lord and his family were so easy to get along with.

Even the young master is so polite.

Despicable people like them never got a word of thanks no matter how hard they worked, but when he was working with money, the young master said thank you to him.

It should be said that not only the young master, but also many children said thank you to him today.

Everyone lives in the same territory, and no one knows who.

Many children used to have no way of saying hello to anyone, but would pass by silently with their heads lowered.

Nowadays, they dare to hold their heads high and call people politely. It can be seen that it is the credit of the school in the city.

Of course, it may also be that life has improved and people have gained confidence.

After all, Qin Hao has been studying martial arts with Qin Jia for so long, and he has some strength in terms of arm strength and power control.

So he swish, caught four things in ten traps.

"Ah ah ah, third sister, I've been hit again!!"

"It's pretty awesome." Qin Jia praised with a smile.

"Hold it, young master. You are the one who has caught the most things in the trap today. You are really awesome."

Everything comes from the City Lord's Mansion, so no matter how much is taken away, the person responsible for guarding the stall will not lose.

At this moment, seeing what Qin Hao had in his bag, he was naturally happy from the bottom of his heart.

After all, it is better to make the young master happy than to make others unhappy.

"Third sister, let's go to the next one!"

"Okay." Although Qin Jia lined up, he didn't intend to play. It was too much to bully a child.

Let the prizes be reserved for real children.

  At the city gate, Wei Fengxuan and the others finally arrived with vigilance.

"Guests ahead, please dismount and enter the city."

Horses are basically not allowed to pass through Fucheng streets and other places, so they did not resist and dismounted according to the rules.

Shangguan Chen stepped forward and asked, "How much does it cost to enter the city?"

"Our city does not charge city fees, but your horse cannot enter the city. It can only be kept in the stable. It costs five cents, including water and hay for a day. For an extra ten cents, you can bathe the horse."

No city fees?
  It was obvious that he had earned money for nothing, but the prefect of this city actually didn’t want it? Then what did he use to pay taxes to the court?
  Shangguan Chen was puzzled, but he was not at ease about handing the horse over to this group of people of unknown origin.

If they encountered danger in the city, couldn't they mount their horses and leave immediately?

Moreover, they haven't figured out which force's territory this is. What if they refuse to return the horse and just rob it?
  Seeing that he didn't reply, the gatekeeper understood, and he thoughtfully said: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to take care of it, just tie the horse in the woods over there.

However, I have to remind our guests that we in Rose City have no obligation to help you take care of and guard the horses tied outside the city.

Therefore, the city will not be responsible if something is lost. "

The disclaimer must state that this is a place of exile after all, so petty theft is bound to happen?
  The duty of the gatekeeper is to guard the city gate, not to take care of things outside the city.

"This……"

Wei Fengxuan stopped Shangguan Chen's next words and said lightly, "Lead the way."

"Um... I'm sorry, guest. I have responsibilities, so I'm not allowed to leave my post without permission. I'll ask someone to show you the way.

Maozi, come here quickly, there are some guests here! " "coming! "A thin young man ran over quickly.

"Guys, please come this way!"

Mao Zi led Wei Fengxuan and his party to the stables on the right. There were several rows of stables inside, which were very clean and had sinks and food troughs.

The people who were responsible for guarding the stables quickly came over to take the horses from their hands, and then arranged a single room for each horse.

Then he handed over a dozen black number plates to Wei Fengxuan and said respectfully: "Guest, the daily care fee for each horse is five cents.

When you leave, take this number plate and come to check out, and you can take the horse away.

If you don't want to stay overnight, but are leaving later, and don't need water or hay, just give me a penny for a horse.

If you don't stay overnight but need water and hay, it costs three cents. "

"Stay overnight."

"Okay, we will take good care of the horse. Except for the horse's own disease, if there is any other problem, our stable will be responsible for the compensation.

Please be sure to keep your number plate. We don’t recognize people, we only recognize the number plate to claim the horse. "The person in charge of the stable warned again.

Shangguan Chen was puzzled, "Why don't you recognize the person? We should be easy to recognize as a group of people, right?"

"People are easy to recognize, and horses always look alike. The number plate in your hand corresponds to the stable room number, so we only recognize the plate to pick up the horse, and we can't keep it wrong."

It sounds like it's really good. At least it won't lead to the wrong horse.

There are several rows of stables here, and they are all next to each other. If there are too many horses, it is really easy to get confused.

"Okay, that's quite responsible."

The person in charge smiled and said, "We have to make our guests feel at ease."

"Not bad."

The price of five cents is also affordable. When they stay in inns elsewhere, they need to pay the waiter to take care of them.

Forget it, someone still has to keep an eye on the horses to prevent them from being lost.

It is really easy to have such a trusteeship, so that the place responsible for compensation if something goes wrong is really trouble-free.

"Now that the horses are settled, where else do the guests want to go? Do they still need a little person to lead the way?" Mao Zi asked respectfully.

"Of course it's necessary. We have to find an inn to settle in first. It doesn't matter if it's more expensive, but it must be clean and tidy."

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Chen took out a small dime of silver and handed it to Mao Zi.

Those who lead the way have to be paid. He follows Wei Fengxuan all over the country, so he naturally understands the rules.

Mao Zi did not refuse. After putting the money in his arms, he enthusiastically and respectfully took the person to the intersection to wait for the bus.

"Dear guests, Central Street is a bit far away. It's too troublesome to walk there. Let's wait here for a while. There will be a car later."

Shangguan Chen thinks this arrangement is good, but...

"Didn't the gatekeeper just say that there are no horses in your city?"

Maozi nodded, "It's indeed not allowed."

"Then you still said you were waiting for the horse..." the car.

"Guest, the car is here!"

The sixteen people waiting all looked up and saw a strange, boxy thing approaching.

The most important thing is that there are a lot of chair-like things behind this thing, and you can tell at a glance that they are used for sitting.

And it, it, it... it can move!

There are no horses in front of it, and there are no oxen pulling it. What is the situation? Is this the so-called waiting for the train?
