Chapter 174 Child Labor in Hotels

Early the next morning, Lux and his lieutenant walked out of a three-story building with pale faces and vague steps

This place is the gold cave, you can't enter it without spending money, people here in Manhattan are too good at making money.

When they came outside, they were blown by the cold wind, and the two of them suddenly sobered up a lot.

Thinking back on the absurdity of the night, neither Lux nor his deputy knew how to describe it.

The experience of this night really made them feel that they had lived so much in vain.

"Captain, let's go." , The deputy reluctantly withdrew his gaze and said to Lux with some decadence. "Do you still have any money on you?" , Lux asked.

The deputy shook his head, "I have no money on me, and I lost it all in the casino." The deputy had a very helpless wry smile on his face.

Hearing this, Lux grinned, "Hey, it looks like we're going to be hungry this morning." I don't have any money on me, and I've lost just like you. He shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands in motion.

"Okay, let's go back and borrow some money from the others first, it's not a good thing to be hungry." , the deputy tightened his coat.

The two then began to walk in the direction of the hotel.

When they left the place, some people came out of the casino behind them, and it seemed that they had spent the same night in the casino as Lukes.

Therefore, from the faces of these people, you can see that they are languishing one by one. And their miserable white faces, dark circles, and even bruised lips.

Of course, there is no bright look on the faces of these people, which shows that these people did not get any benefit in the casino, but may have lost a lot of money.

The casino is not far from the pier, which is only three blocks away. So Lux and the others quickly returned to the small hotel, which had been booked the day before yesterday.

Fortunately, they had prepaid for the hotel in advance, otherwise they would have gone back to bed on the boat now.

The facilities in the small hotel are not bad, and the European side is completely different styles.

Much to the satisfaction of Lukes, who liked to experience exotic experiences, he sat down on the soft bed covered with thick fur and flicked it twice hard.

Well, the bed is very warm, so you don't have to worry about freezing when you sleep.

And the fireplace in the room, which has been lit by the staff, has risen a very strong flame.

The firewood crackled in the fireplace, and soon the temperature in the room rose to the point that even Lukes, who was in a cotton coat, was sweating a little.

Because of the sweating, Lux and his deputy took off their coats and coats, and wore only European-style white sè jumpsuits.

"This kind of room is so warm, I don't have to worry about freezing when I sleep." , the deputy walked around the room for a moment and sighed.

Lux nodded, convinced.

There are only two beds, two wooden chairs and a wooden table in the room. On the wooden table were two small wooden cups, apparently used for drinking water.

In the ventilation hole above the fireplace, an iron shelf was erected. On that iron shelf, a conical iron kettle hangs.

Gollum!

There was a noise in Lukes' stomach, and they hadn't eaten after playing all night.

"You go to the sailors and borrow some money, and then buy something to eat. I don't want to go to bed hungry, it's going to be uncomfortable. After patting his belly, Lux said to his deputy.

The deputy nodded in response, then pushed open the door and walked out.

Lux lay down and put it on, letting out a long breath.

Looking at the ceiling, Lux began to ponder what he had discovered in Manhattan for a day and a night.

It's hard to see through Manhattan.

As he thought about it, Lux felt more and more that this place was incomprehensible to him, and the longer he was here, the stronger this feeling became. At the same time, the more you want to stay here, because it's so comfortable to live here.

Tuk tuk!

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Sir, do you need a hot bath?"

A teenager's voice came from outside, and Lux was asked.

"Take a bath? Hot water? ”

Lux rolled over and sat on the edge of the bed and asked loudly.

"Yes, sir. We provide free hot water here for the guests staying here to keep it hygienic, so do you need it, sir? ”

The young man outside the door continued to ask.

Why don't you use it for free, it's pretty good to take a bath.

Although Lukes was Dutch, he didn't have the rule of taking a bath only three times in his life, and he was all in the Middle Ages.

"Okay, please provide me with some hot water."

Since it's free, Lux doesn't mind enjoying it.

At the same time, Lukes's favorability of the hotel has greatly increased.

Next time, you can come to stay here, and hot water will be provided for free.

"Sir, then please open the door, I can't enter without opening the door."

Lux walked to the door and opened the aspect.

Outside, is a blonde, blue-eyed European boy of about ten years old.

The little boy wears a smaller, green sè military uniform, and his feet are also yellow sè suede boots.

"Sir, I'm a room attendant, just call me if you need anything in the future." The little boy was very clever, and when the door opened and Lux appeared, he immediately smiled and bowed slightly to introduce himself to Lux.

Hmm, that's such a young age.

But Lux didn't think it was strange, there are children on the European continent who come out to make money at the age of five or six, not to mention the ten-year-old child in front of him.

"Sir, please let me get hot water for you."

Lux tilted his body slightly and let the boy in.

The boy walked into the room, opened the bathroom door not far from the fireplace, and walked in.

Lux followed behind him, trying to figure out how the young man, who had nothing with him, could get hot water for himself.

In this bathroom, there is a squatting pit urinal, and next to the urinal is a large wooden barrel made of wood. At one end of the large log, a woodpipe hung down.

The boy walked over to the barrel and reached out to pull the cork that had blocked the mouth of the wooden pipe, and immediately a stream of steaming hot water flowed out and poured into the barrel.

"Sir, please plug this outlet with a wooden plug when the water is full, and please don't waste hot water even though it's free. At the same time, when the urinal is finished, there is also a spout next to it, and if you pull out the cork, there will be water to wash away the excrement. ”

The boy smiled and introduced to Lukes.

"Since this is your first time at the Manhattan International Hotel, it is our duty to show you how to use these things. Wait until the next time you move in, it won't be so much trouble. ”

Without waiting for Lux to ask anything, the teenager explained himself.

Only then did Lux understand why a teenager would appear here.

Manhattan International Hotel?

He knows Manhattan, but what is an international hotel?

Lukes didn't quite understand.

However, he was too embarrassed to ask this ten-year-old boy, after all, he was an adult.

In fact, the owner of this hotel is a genetic person cultivated by Zhao Hongyu.

This gene man did not open a restaurant, but saw that there were many ships coming and going from the dock, so he built this hotel.

The name Manhattan International Hotel, in addition to his own love of spoofing, also has a little personal ambition.

Yes, who can't be a little ambitious in this day and age.

And the ambition of this innkeeper is to open his own hotel all over the world, making him the first hotel tycoon in the future.

Of course, now he only has a hotel like Manhattan, but who knows what the future holds.

Behind them, there is a strong backer.

As long as His Highness gets stronger and stronger, then the dreams of these genetic people may not come true.

"Well, you're lucky to have found a job at such a young age. But this boss doesn't pay you a lot, does he? ”

After remembering the boy's explanation, Lux even started chatting with him.

With a smile on his face, the boy walked over to the fireplace to check on the fire, and then he threw two more sticks of wood into it to make it even more intense.

Well, there's not enough firewood, so I'm going to chop some firewood and send it over in a while.

The boy looked at the firewood piled up in the corner of the wall and had a count in his mind.

He's in charge of ten rooms, so he's going to have to do his best.

"Yes, the owner of this shop is very nice and took me in to work here. People like me can't find anything to do in Virginia, and here the boss pays me three dragons a month, and eats and lives three meals a day, and meat for every meal. ”

The young man's face showed a very satisfied look.

Three big dragon oceans, the salary is really good.

Lux knew the level of consumption in Manhattan, so he knew that this kid could earn 3 dragon silver coins a month, which was indeed a very good salary.

In Europe, children of this age will not get paid at all if they find something to do.

If the employer is very good, just give them some oatmeal paste and eat two meals a day.

"Sir, you don't have enough firewood here, I'll bring you some later. Now I'm going to check on the other rooms, so I won't bother you. ”

There were still ten rooms to clean up, so it was clear that the boy didn't want to waste his limited time by chatting too much with Lukes.

And this teenager cherishes his current job very much, and he doesn't want to be thought by his boss that he is lazy. (To be continued.)
