Chapter 3781 It"s You Again.
When LAN Xinyu heard this, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she carefully pondered for a moment and said in realization,""Waa! Chuxi, this description of yours is really too appropriate. Isn"t it exactly like this! Sigh, what a pity for this perfectly fine city, what a pity. "
LAN Xinyu was so immersed in her thoughts of regret that no one noticed the complicated expression on uncle Ling"s face as he lowered his head.
Seeing that the sky was already dark, Ling Chuxi was not in a hurry to continue her journey. She decided to stay in Heavenly Star City for a night and go to the tower of proving holiness to take a look the next morning before returning to the Ling family.
There weren"t many other things in the stellarsky city, but inns could be seen everywhere. This also confirmed uncle Ling"s words. In the past, the stellarsky city was indeed a gathering of merchants and cultivators. Otherwise, who would stay in so many inns?
They chose a slightly remote but quiet and elegant inn and walked in.
"Dear guests, please come in, please come in. I don"t know if it"s for sharpening or ..." As soon as he saw the guests enter, the shopkeeper personally welcomed them with joy. It could be seen that business was not good and it was deserted.
"Two superior rooms." Ling Chuxi said directly to the shopkeeper.
"Good, good, good. Two superior rooms. You"ve come at the right time today. Those superior rooms are empty. If it were any other day, you might not even be able to book them even if you had booked them a month in advance." The shopkeeper was overjoyed. Ever since the seven Star City belonged to the three aristocratic families, the business had been getting worse day by day. When he said "in the past", even he himself could not remember if it was twenty or thirty years ago.
"How much is it?" Ling Chuxi asked.
"The best room costs 1000 five-colored spirit stones per night. If you stay for a long time, you can get a discount." The manager said.
"That"s so expensive. I remember it used to be two hundred five-colored spirit stones a night." Uncle Ling said in surprise. Ever since he left the Ling family, he had not been to Seven Star City for many years. He did not expect that not only would the entrance fee increase, but even the price of the inn had also increased.
"Hehe, this old gentleman is talking about something that happened many years ago." The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said,"ever since the seven Star City changed owners, our monthly tribute has increased by a few times, so the room fees have also increased. If you don"t believe me, you can go and ask. Not only my family, but all the Inns in the seven Star City have increased their room fees by a few times."
"Forget it. I"ll raise the price then. It"s just for one night anyway." Ling Chuxi said indifferently. She could tell that the innkeeper was not lying. Besides, the three aristocratic families of Huang, cui, and Chai had exhausted all their efforts in fis.h.i.+ng for money. They had even raised the entrance fee several times. It would be strange if they did not make a big profit from these inns and restaurants.
"AI, how can you do this? Don"t they know how much manpower and material resources were spent to build Seven Star City back then? aren"t they afraid of destroying Seven Star City by doing this?" Uncle Ling shook his head and sighed.
"Forget it. It"s not my family"s anyway. They can do whatever they want." As Ling Chuxi spoke, she took out her storage bag and took out 2000 five-colored spirit stones to hand to the shopkeeper. Ling Chuxi did not notice that when she said this, uncle Ling"s expression became even more complicated.
"Shopkeeper Yu, give me two superior rooms." Just then, a familiar voice came from outside the door.
A young girl walked in with her head held high, followed by a refined-looking young man. Coincidentally, they were the two people he had met at the city gate earlier.
"Miss ou, what brings you here? why don"t I see old master ou?" The shopkeeper immediately greeted the young girl and asked respectfully.
