After transmigrating into the world of an ancient wuxia novel, Lu Xinghe got bound to an inn-management System.
From the start, she had a crumbling thatched hut and mountains of debt.
At first, everyone thought nothing of it, but they soon discovered there was more to the place than met the eye.
The waiter carrying the dishes was a notorious martial arts villain.
The hotel receptionist was a martial arts prodigy once famous throughout the jianghu.
The greeter was an elf, the cook was a female ghost, and the farm owner was a monster.
Later on, everyone noticed that the panda cub the boss often held in her arms
suddenly turned into a young man in a military uniform one day.
The young man was aloof and noble, with a cool air about him. He never gave any woman at the inn a second glance.
A single sweep of his chilly eyes was enough to make the young men who coveted the boss back off.
It was said that one day,
the young man blocked the room of the reigning court's Eighth Prince, who had once confessed his love to the boss. His gaze was vicious as he said, "She's mine. Don't come bothering her again."
Oh! So the young man coveted not only the boss's cooking, but her beauty, too.
Everyone knew the young man in uniform liked the innkeeper.
Only the innkeeper herself, blind in both sight and heart, had no idea.

The officials of the Great Tang worked diligently, rising before dawn and staying up late. They were practically sleeping in the imperial study with the emperor at night.
Yet, for some reason, the common people remained destitute, with barely enough clothes to cover themselves.
Then, one day,
Zhao Yuanyan, the reigning court's Eighth Prince, brought back a delicacy from the human world called ham sausage.
The wealthy merchants from all over the land, who pinched every penny and went berserk whenever anyone asked them for donations, even threatening to hang themselves outside the palace gates in the dead of night, were now willing to spend a fortune buying and buying and buying.
The officials gazed at the overflowing national treasury with tears streaming down their faces.
That very night, they followed the Eighth Prince to a place called Xinghe Inn to stock up.
Swimming pool * supermarket * spirit fields * clinic * school * hot springs
The locals who came to stay at the inn went wild.
Xinghe Inn quickly became a sensation, and its business expanded step by step.
From ham sausages and instant noodles to hot pot, from pizza to spicy mixed noodles.
The Great Tang's economy soared, and the common people were no longer destitute.
After much deliberation, the current emperor, Emperor Tang Wen, decided to give Lu Xinghe an award: Best Dark Horse.
After all, Boss Lu had once awarded the horse that came first in the race at the racetrack with the title of Best Dark Horse.
Well... Boss Lu was undeniably the Great Tang's very own dark horse!
1. This Great Tang is not that Great Tang.
2. The early story focuses on wuxia, with the imperial court as a secondary element.
3. The main themes are running a business and watching the drama unfold.
4. All settings in this story are the author's own. Any similarities are purely coincidental.
Theme: Even when justice and hope are lost, the rules must still be followed
Doesn't the inn sell prepared food? Don't you sell breakfast?
Similar, what I opened is really not a black shop
What's wrong with not adding meat? Is it more expensive without meat?
Is this equivalent to opening a B&B?
I want to squeeze everything dry_(:з∠)_
No more, woo woo woo
No more, woo woo woo
No more, woo woo woo
Is the "animal nature" in the copywriting the "animal form"?
Damn it, I finished reading it. I was so hasty. I knew I shouldn't have watched it so early.
