Chapter 1437: Let Her Spend Money
"One day!" Xiao Jingyu said lightly.
"Alright!" The receptionist was very dutiful as she registered. Then, she asked, "Miss, have you decided whether to eat in the lobby or in the private room?"
Xiao Jingyu said," Go to the lobby!"
The receptionist nodded and said," Alright."
Then, she said to Xiao Jingyu," Customer, please pay a deposit of 1,000 taels in advance. Thank you!"
"What?" Xiao Jingyu"s servant girl suddenly jumped up again and said angrily," My master hasn"t eaten and hasn"t checked in yet, and we have to pay in advance?"They had never heard of this method of paying first.
The receptionist explained with a smile, "Miss, it"s like this. In order to prevent people from scamming, oh, I mean, if people don"t come after booking and our inn"s rooms can"t receive other guests, this will cause losses to our inn."
When Xiao Jingyu heard this, she frowned tightly and then asked," What if I can"t return to stay after paying the deposit?"
"Then the customer has to inform us four hours in advance. After that, the deposit will be returned in full! Four hours later, the inn will take the deposit as collateral!" The receptionist explained patiently.
Xiao Jingyu was very surprised when she heard that.
Then, she asked curiously," Who made these rules?"
The receptionist said strangely," Of course, it"s our boss!"
"Is your boss Lin Yuelan?" Xiao Jingyu"s heart was burning with jealousy.
"Of course!" The receptionist stared at Xiao Jingyu with a strange expression and asked suspiciously.
Why was she gritting her teeth when she heard their boss" name?
However, they soon remembered that not long ago, there was a rumour in the capital that Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom had taken a fancy to their General Jiang Zhennan, who was also the fiancé of their boss, the moment she arrived in the Longyan Kingdom.
However, perhaps because of the Great General"s misfortune, she choked twice and fell once. Later, the Black Clouds Kingdom had no choice but to go to the palace to break off the engagement with the Emperor.
These things spread like wildfire in the capital.
In an instant, the receptionist did not have a good impression of Princess Linglong, who had stolen their master.
However, as an employee of the inn, their job objective was to serve the guests as if they were G.o.ds.
The receptionist smiled and asked, "Miss, are you done? If there"s nothing else, please go directly to the lobby on the second floor for dinner, or please move to the rest area for the time being! Because there are still many customers behind you who are queuing up to register!"
When Xiao Jingyu heard that, she immediately turned around and saw that there was more than one customer behind her. There were already more than ten customers queuing up!
Xiao Jingyu was surprised again.
It had only been a short time, but there were already so many customers lining up.
Didn"t they know that this place cost more than a thousand taels a day?
However, Xiao Jingyu was only stunned for a moment before she became puzzled.
But then, she saw who the customers were in the back of the line!
The servants of Prince Gong"s residence, the steward of the loyal Marquis" residence, the housekeeper of Princess Changle"s residence, and the nanny of Princess Changle"s side were all people with high status and authority in the capital.
On the surface, it looked like servants were queuing up, but based on the cost of this inn, it was obvious that they were queuing up for their respective masters.
"Princess, is there anything else? If there"s nothing, please make way. We still have to register here." At the front of the line were the personal guards of the Gong Prince.
When he saw that Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom had not left after finishing her business, he frowned slightly and began to ask in dissatisfaction.
Xiao Jingyu"s maidservant was instantly dissatisfied. She pointed at this person and shouted," Who are you? What right do you have to ask my master to move aside? My master is Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom!" This girl had repeatedly emphasized that Xiao Jingyu was Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom.
Xiao Jingyu"s face darkened before anyone else could react.
This wretched girl didn"t even look at the people who came here. She kept repeating she was Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom. These people didn"t seem to put Princess Linglong in their eyes at all. She had lost all her face.
The guard immediately looked at the girl with disdain and said," Oh, so it"s the Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom who wanted to marry General Jiang but was afraid of death and forced the eldest grand prince to divorce his wife and marry her instead. I"m really sorry for my disrespect!"
