"What conditions?" The shopkeeper said angrily.

Fortunately, people, I have never seen such a flattering person!
If you really regarded him as a good person, you wouldn't bargain with him like this, and even after negotiating the price, you even had to put in conditions!

He doubted that this girl was really just a child?If he has the ability to say a few words, he will fall in, and he will not feel disgusted.

"Shopkeeper, my house is too far away from the county seat, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back tonight, can you take me in for a night?" Bai Beibei asked embarrassingly.

"That's the condition?" The shopkeeper was greatly surprised, he thought this girl was not greedy enough, and wanted to gain more benefits from it.

"Yes shopkeeper, I'm not familiar with the place where I live, so I dare not just find a place to live." Bai Beibei didn't hide the truth from the shopkeeper, because it was unnecessary, and she really felt that the shopkeeper had a good heart, that's why she did this. required.

The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Girl, how about this, I can help you find a safe place to live, but you pay for the accommodation yourself, if you agree, I'll take you there after paying the bill for you?"

The shopkeeper is a businessman, not a rotten good person with a lot of love, it is his greatest kindness to be able to do this.

"Shopkeeper, I just need to have a safe place to stay, and I don't need to live in a good place." The implication is to ask the shopkeeper not to find a place that is too expensive.

The shopkeeper said with a clear smile: "Girl, don't worry, the inn I'm talking about is the most affordable inn in An County. It only costs 350 Wen for one night, and it includes breakfast tomorrow morning."

"I'm causing trouble for the shopkeeper." Bo Beibei curled her lower lip, expressing her agreement with the shopkeeper's proposal.

350 Wen is enough for them to pay a month's fishing tax, but it is really nothing in An County where the consumption level is so high.

"Girl, do you want bank notes or cash for the 700 taels?" the shopkeeper asked again.

"Shopkeeper, if possible, you can give me nine taels of silver and one thousand copper plates first, and exchange the remaining 690 taels into bank notes. I'll come back tomorrow to get them, is that okay?"

She was away alone, and she was just a child. Carrying too much money on her body was easy to be missed, so Bai Beibei planned to come back to collect the banknotes before going home tomorrow.

"You girl is quite thoughtful!" The shopkeeper's eyes were full of admiration, and then he asked someone to go out and exchange for a thousand copper coins, because he didn't have that many copper coins in his hand.

After Bai Beibei took the money and went to the inn, he deeply realized the "benefits" mentioned by the shopkeeper.

Bai Beibei was taken into a room of about ten square meters by Xiao Er, and then asked: "Girl, if you need anything, just ring the bell at the door, and someone will come over then."

"Thank you, little brother, I see." After Bo Beibei bolted the door, he saw light smoke lingering behind a screen beside the bed, so he walked around behind the screen curiously.

At first glance, it was a large bathtub, filled with a bucket of hot water, and there was a set of clean adult women's obscene underwear hanging on the side of the screen for her to change and wash.

The service is really attentive!

Bo Beibei didn't care too much, put the cloth bag containing the copper plates and silver aside, took off the dirty clothes and shoes and socks that were full of sour smell, and stepped into the bucket.

"Hiss~~" As soon as his feet touched the water, Bai Beibei couldn't help moaning in pain, and quickly jumped out.

Lifting her feet and looking, Bo Beibei found that her feet were covered with blood blisters, some of which were broken, no wonder it hurt so much.

Bo Beibei didn't get into the bathtub anymore, and started wiping her body with a wet handkerchief instead.

After wiping her body, Bai Beibei came to the bedside, smelling the fragrant bedding, she relaxed.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Bo Beibei immediately raised his vigilance.

"Guest officer, I am the laundryman of the inn, here to collect your dirty clothes." A woman's voice came from outside the door.

And this service, Bo Beibei was surprised.

Bo Beibei opened the door a little, wearing loose underwear, and saw a woman in her forties standing outside the door, wearing the same clothes as the mistress who brought her in just now, and the neckline also had this Only then did Bo Beibei open the door of the room with peace of mind after seeing the exclusive Peugeot of the inn.

After the woman put away the dirty clothes, she smiled at Bo Beibei and said, "Girl, after the clothes are washed and dried, I'll bring them back to you tomorrow morning when you get up."

"Thank you." Bo Beibei said lightly.

She had to be careful when going out, and she didn't completely let go of her guard until then, but her coarse clothes were not worth much, so she wasn't worried at all if the woman didn't return her clothes.

After running around for a day, Bo Beibei was already exhausted. After checking the doors and windows, she climbed into bed. She was so tired that she fell asleep as soon as she got on the bed, and was woken up by the laundryman the next day.

Bo Beibei opened the door sleepily, and saw the washerman standing respectfully at the door with a tray in his hand. Her coarse clothes were neatly stacked in the tray, and the clothes in the tray still gave off a faint fragrance.

The corners of Bo Beibei's eyes twitched, the five-star service is nothing more than that!
The laundryman brought the clothes into the house and left. Bai Beibei changed her clothes, and Xiao Er just brought over the washing water and breakfast.

Breakfast is very simple, it is a bowl of porridge, two dishes of pickled vegetables, and two vegetable buns.

Bo Beibei had just had two mouthfuls of porridge when she suddenly remembered something, stood up abruptly, picked up two vegetable buns and ran downstairs.

After paying the bill, Bo Beibei ran desperately to the center of the street, asking for the way to the county government office.

Bo Beibei thought that tomorrow is the day to pay the fishing tax, and those yamen servants must leave a day or half a day earlier. She asked the carriage driver yesterday that the carriage would only go back in the morning. She overslept in the morning, and she might not be able to return today. Go, she has to pay the fishing tax before the yamen servants leave.

It took Bai Beibei half an hour to find the location of the county government office. Looking at the Anxian county government office with upright cornices, upright columns and wide open doors, Bo Beibei took a deep breath before walking over.

"who?!"

As soon as Bai Beibei approached, a gatekeeper shouted loudly.

"Officer, I'm here to find Lord Jin." Bai Beibei remembered that Lu Hui called the chief yamen servant that way.

"What are you looking for, Mr. Jin?" The gatekeeper obviously didn't think that the girl in rough clothes in front of him really knew Jin Cheng.

"I……"

Just as Bai Beibei was about to explain his purpose, he saw Jin Cheng and a few government officials walking over from the other side, leading their horses, as if they were about to go out for a long journey.

"Jin Ye—" Bai Beibei ran forward.

Jin Cheng was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to remember who Bo Beibei was.

"Are you looking for me?" Jin Cheng frowned and looked at Bai Beibei, because he thought of Bai Beibei and at the same time he also remembered that he threw Feng Shi unconscious.

That woman is not dead, is she?
If that woman died, it would not be a good thing for this girl to have Duan's family backing her up to settle accounts with him!
