  Guangzhou Prefecture is the prefectural city of Guangdong. Although Guangdong belongs to a remote area, due to the rapid development of maritime trade and the development of shipping, Guangzhou Prefecture still looks quite prosperous.

Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu heard the commotion before they got ashore. The boatmen and coolies were shouting to remove the goods from the boat. The ox carts, donkey carts, mule carts, and horse carts were connected together. Some were pulling goods and some were pulling. People, as well as women and old people carrying burdens, shuttled through the crowd to sell and eat food... It was extremely lively.

Shopkeeper He brought the two ashore, gave them a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone as a gift, and then pointed out: "Young Master Gu can hire a donkey cart to enter the city, there are many inns and restaurants on Qianmen Street, you can choose one to stay in. If there is any difficulty, you can go to the He family in Xiliuxiang, just ask He Erlang."

   Gu Jingyun thanked him, "I'll post a post when I settle down, and invite the shopkeeper to come together."

   Shopkeeper He smiled and nodded in agreement, only taking Gu Jingyun's words as polite words.

  The boatman pushed out the two people's trolley with their luggage on it, and the clever guy found a donkey cart ahead of them.

  Li Baolu looked at the mule cart not far away in thought, touched her chin and said, "I didn't notice it before, but now I look at it, it looks like a mule and a horse."

  Gu Jingyun raised his eyelids and glanced at the horse and mule, then stepped on the bench and got on the donkey cart and asked, "So?"

   "Let's buy a mule cart instead of a donkey cart."

   Gu Jingyun responded and said indifferently, "You can call the shots."

  Li Baolu happily climbed into the donkey cart and sat down.

There are still 28 days to go to the prefectural examination. After the prefectural examination, the hospital examination will follow. Therefore, there are many scholars gathered in the Guangzhou prefecture. When they learned that they were coming to take the examination, the driver asked eagerly: "Young master, is it? Do you want to live in an inn, or just rent a yard to live in?"

  Renting a yard is naturally more free, and it can save a lot of trouble, but the news of staying in an inn must be more well-informed. Gu Jingyun looked at the bustling and noisy streets outside, and he was a little hesitant. This place is different from Qiongzhou Mansion.

Although he rarely goes to the county seat, because Zhang Yiyan is there, he is no stranger to the county seat, and he can control everything in his own hands, but for Guangzhou Prefecture, he only heard a few words from the shopkeeper He, and Zhang Yiyan before. Sporadic information gathered from runners.

   The lack of information made him a little uneasy, so he just kept silent for a while and said, "Go to an inn, find an inn with a lot of candidates, a good reputation, and a good environment."

   The coachman immediately responded with a bright voice, and they also got a commission for sending the guests directly to the door of the inn.

  The coachman obviously often sent the candidates to the accommodation, so he quickly decided on a route and took the two directly to a more secluded street.

  Li Baolu thought they had been deceived, so she couldn't help but leaned over to block Gu Jingyun, ready to beat someone up when things went wrong. After all, how could there be such a quiet hotel in a hotel?

   But when Li Baolu got off the bus, she knew that she was worried. She swept her eyes on both sides of the street and found that the left, right, front and rear were all accommodation inns. Through the half-opened windows, you could also see scholars walking around with books in their hands...

   Most of the lodgings in this area are students who are going to take the exam.

   No wonder it was so quiet, because they all had to read, and even passing cars would slow down so as not to affect the candidates.

   At this moment, Li Baolu realized that she was going to take the exam, she said, "This is the exam."

He hurriedly turned around and put Gu Jingyun down, unloaded the scooter tied to the back of the car, and took down the luggage one by one. The guy at the inn had already greeted him, his eyes swept over Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu, and immediately greeted Gu Jingyun. Going up, he asked with a smile, "Does the son want to eat or stay?"

   "Accommodation."

   "But you have to take the government exam in April?"

  Gu Jingyun nodded, the man smiled even more, helped to move the luggage in, and said enthusiastically: "I don't know how many rooms your son wants, we still have a few rooms here..."

  Li Baolu followed with the rest of the luggage, cut off his words and asked, "How much does it cost for a night? What do they provide, and what types of rooms are there besides the room?"

The guy glanced at Gu Jingyun and saw him take a step back to let Xian, he knew that the little girl was in charge of the housing, he hurriedly transferred the object and said with a smile: "The room is five hundred yuan a night, it is equipped with a bathtub, hot water can be used casually, and There is a small stove for you to stew, and the charcoal is also borne by our inn, in addition to breakfast, but lunch and dinner are your responsibility.”

Eyes looked back and forth between the two, and said: "The upper room is not only spacious, but also has a small couch, the girl can sleep at night, and there is such a large desk in it, it is quiet and elegant, and it is good for reading. place."

  Li Baolu twitched the corners of her mouth and continued to look at him.

The guy was slightly disappointed, but still said with a smile on his face: "In addition to the upper room, there is also the middle room and the lower room. The lower room only has a bed and a quilt. Food, 30 yuan a night. The middle room also has a bed and a quilt, as well as a bathtub with hot water, breakfast included, and 80 yuan a night, which one do you want?"

  Li Baolu thought about it for a while, then looked at Gu Jingyun who was standing beside her, and said, "I want to see the upper room and the middle room."

   "Well, come with me." The guy helped store the luggage on the counter and led the two upstairs.

  Li Baolu carried the money jacket and pulled Gu Jingyun to follow.

  The upper room was on the third floor, and the two of them looked at the upper room before going down to see the middle room.

   There was only a bed and a chair for eating in the middle room, separated by a curtain. Inside was the bathroom, but it was so cramped that Li Baolu slammed into it when she turned around.

   The upper room is almost the size of three middle rooms. There is a large bed and a window next to it. In front of the window is a desk. There are also pen holders, pen washers and other stationery items on the table...

   A screen is conveniently placed in front of the bed to separate a bathroom, where there are toilets such as bathtubs, wooden basins, and even towels, soaps, and other items.

The small couch is placed on the side of the desk. Obviously, the tenant can lie down on the couch to rest when they are tired from reading. The best part is that there is a large screen in the middle of the room to separate the inside and outside, and the outer room is an area the size of a medium room. I visited the round table used for banquets, which protects the privacy of the owner very well. As long as the owner does not lead people into the room, who knows what secrets are inside?

   No wonder a room costs 500 pennies, which is terribly expensive, but worth it!

  Li Baolu gritted his teeth and said, "We have to stay here until the end of the hospital test. It will take about 40 days. Can you make it cheaper?"

   The guy immediately smiled and said, "If the guests stay in the room for more than a month, we will even pack your dinner together, which is still five hundred cents a night."

   This is the discount.

  Li Baolu calculated the money, nodded and said, "Okay, we will live in the upper room."

   The guy smiled and led them down to go through the formalities.

  500 wen a night, 40 days is 22 taels, this is not counting lunch and other consumption, Li Baolu deeply feels that money is not spent.

  Gu Jingyun saw her pained face, and couldn't help laughing: "It's better to live in a middle room."

  Li Baolu shook her head and said resolutely: "No, you must be in a bad mood if you don't live well, so as not to affect your exams, you should be more expensive. I will find a way to make some money later."

   Gu Jingyun was both moved and helpless, and asked, "You still have to take care of me, how do you make money?"

  Li Baolu pondered what she could do.

   Gu Jingyun attacked her and said, "Embroidery, you can't make clothes, you can't go out and carry a big bag, right?"

   "You look down on me too much," Li Baolu glared at him through gritted teeth and said, "Should I call the head office of Luozi?"

   Among Li Baolu's female workers, only the tie-breaker gets full marks, embroidery gets 5 points, and the clothes are better, she can get 7 points, but it's definitely not good to sell them.

   Gu Jingyun held back a smile and nodded, "Okay, I'll read the book when I look back, and you can talk to me."

   The guy looked at the two of them in amazement, and felt that their relationship was nothing like a son and a girl, but what is this dark girl not a girl? It can't be a sister, can it?

   This son is also strange. He obviously can afford to live in the house, but he doesn't bring a book boy. Whose son came out to take the test with a girl?

  The two of them didn't know what the guy was thinking. Although Li Baolu was in pain, she took out twenty taels to pay for the room in advance, and then went up with a salute.

  Gu Jingyun has been on the boat for several days. Now standing on the ground, he feels that the house is shaking, and he wants to sleep in addition to wanting to sleep.

  Li Baolu saw that his face was not good, and was afraid that he would get sick, so he immediately asked the staff to bring hot water up to give him a bath, and then put him down to sleep before tidying up his luggage.

  The two slept in the same room from a nap until Li Baolu was seven years old before they split up. They both slept in the same bed on the boat for several days, so there was no strange feeling about living in the same room again, and it was only natural that they started laying things.

   But the outside of the room is different.

   Among the students who are rushing for the exam, there is really no one who lives in the inn. Most of them are single, and the rest are schoolboys.

   And most of the people who rented the yard to live in are also schoolboys. Occasionally, some brought their wives, and it was rare to bring a girl to take the exam.

   So everyone speculates that this guy who just moved in is probably a romantic one.

Don't think that scholars don't talk about gossip. It's even scarier for scholars to talk about gossip. It spreads fast. Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu only checked into the inn at noon. By the time they slept and pushed the door out in the evening, the rumors had spread all over the street. There were several nearby restaurants. The scholars in the inn all know that a rich and romantic scholar came to the Yuelai Inn. He brought a girl to take the exam, and once he entered the house, he would not go out. .

  Some people heard the sound of "dong dong" when they passed by the door.

  Li Baolu, who was packing her luggage and making a subtle voice: "..."
