"Dad boss, I checked carefully. Maybe the weather was too cold and the water froze in the pipe, causing it to be blocked." Shopkeeper Ding continued to report.
Shen Xingwang frowned and said: "It's cold, so it's okay for the sewer pipes to freeze, but so many guests pulled the plug of the bathtub to let the water flow out, how can this be justified?"
Shen Yuyu answered affirmatively: "It is unreasonable for sewer pipes to freeze. Our bamboo pipes are all insulated to prevent them from freezing and cracking. There is no way that flowing water will freeze in the pipes."
"So, someone is up to something?" "You'll know if you go and take a look."
The three of them talked and soon arrived at the Yunlai Inn on Anren Street.
This inn is located in the most prosperous area of the capital, and even the room rates are twice as high as other places. When the guest rooms of Yunlai Inn were just renovated, they caused quite a stir in the capital. Many businessmen came to try them out and received positive reviews. The rate is one hundred percent.
Something happened here, and many people were watching.
Seeing Princess Ye's chariot approaching, people took the initiative to move out of the way.
Shen Yuyu got out of the car, and everyone saluted her, "I've met Princess Ye." On the day Princess Ye entered the capital, she rode with His Highness the Night King, and showed her affection in public. The whole capital was shocked, and almost everyone didn't know her.
In their eyes, Princess Ye is a legendary figure. She comes from a rural background but is proficient in everything. She can play the piano as well as the Princess of Daqi and dance as well as the Princess of Daqi. She also runs Tianxia Trading Company in a decent way and earns all the money. They used it to buy military supplies and send them to northern Xinjiang, which really impressed them.
Shen Yuyu smiled and nodded to everyone, and then entered Yunlai Inn.
I first went to the first floor and took a look. Several rooms were full of water. The newly decorated floors and furniture were all soaked. The second floor was better. All the water flowed from the gaps to the first floor, but the furniture and floors were also soaked. , the loss is not small.
After reading this, I went to the bathroom and checked and found that the sewer pipe was frozen and blocked.
After the inspection, Shen Yuyu and Shen Xingwang came down from the second floor.
As soon as I got downstairs, I was surrounded by more than a dozen guests.
"Dad Shen, please tell me how much the compensation will be. All our luggage was flooded."
"Not only did I get water, I was sleeping well, but water started flowing from my head and all over my face. That was someone else's bathwater~~ It's such a shame and humiliation. I won't pay you a hundred and eighty thousand to end my life with you.
"Me too? I was so scared that I rolled out of bed and almost broke my leg. I have to pay for it."
"I am the boss of Tianxia Trading Company. Please listen to what I have to say." Shen Yue glanced at everyone with an indifferent expression, "Who are the guests on the first floor?"
Several men who looked like businessmen raised their hands.
"Who are the guests upstairs?" Shen Yuyu asked again.
Several other men who looked like businessmen responded, "I~~'
Shen Yuyu glanced at them and said with a smile, "Since the guests on the second floor did not insert the plug in the bathtub, causing water to flow downstairs, they should compensate the guests on the first floor for their losses. In addition, I, the guest at Yunlai Inn As a result, all the floor furniture was damaged by water, and the residents on the second floor should compensate according to the price."
"Princess Ye is right. Since it was caused by the residents on the second floor not plugging the bathtub stopper, they should be the ones to compensate." Some of the onlookers expressed support.
"Yes, I think they did it on purpose. How could six people forget to plug the bathtub stopper at the same time?"
"Isn't that right? He must be here to cause trouble and ask them to compensate."
Those people really didn't expect that everyone would support Princess Ye so much. They were stunned for a moment and then a tall and thin man opened his mouth to explain.
"The thing is like this, the six of us are businessmen from out of town. After staying at the Yunlai Inn, we saw that they had installed a squatting toilet for relieving ourselves. We became curious and made a bet. If the stopper of the bathtub was not If it is stuffed, will it be frozen? It was indeed frozen."
After the person finished speaking, the pudgy man answered, "So there is something wrong with this design. There will always be guests who forget to plug the plug in the bathtub, right? In this case, the sewer pipes will definitely freeze, and the water will definitely flow everywhere, haha , dare to put it into use with such a big defect? ""
This reason is irrefutable.
Shen Yuyu smiled and glanced at the onlookers: "The people's eyes are sharp, they are indeed here to cause trouble." After saying that, he looked at the people in the building, "Do you know that Tianxia Trading Company is a royal property? If now Admit that you are here to cause trouble, and let you go after paying for all losses, otherwise each of you will be fined tens of thousands and imprisoned for half a year."
The tall and thin man crossed his arms and answered the question with his mouth twitching.
"We are just ordinary guests. Just because the squat toilet in your inn is revealed to be defective, Princess Ye is going to falsely accuse us of looking for trouble and using our power to suppress others? The emperor does not believe that there is no royal law at his feet."
Shen Yuyu sneered, "So you are refusing to admit it? That's it, Brother Xingwang, please send someone to report it to the official."
"Big boss, I'll go." Shopkeeper Ding responded and quickly reported to the official.
This group of people was calm and confident.
The officers and soldiers arrived soon. Mr. Zhao, who came with the troops, looked around upstairs and downstairs. After understanding what happened, he looked at Shen Yuyu.
"Princess Night, both parties are responsible for this matter, but specifically your hotel is more responsible. Your product has such a big defect, so it should be canceled and used, and the guests should be compensated for their losses."
After listening to Mr. Zhao's words, the dozen or so merchants all looked proud.
Shen Yuyu smiled and said to Mr. Zhao: "My lord, let me ask you a question first, what is the crime for damaging the royal property? What is the crime for damaging the royal reputation?
Mr. Zhao answered honestly: "A fine of fifty thousand silver and one year in prison."
"Really? I thought it was half a year in jail~~The fine of 50,000 yuan is for each person or everyone together?"
'Of course everyone.'
"Okay." Shen Yuyu glanced at the dozen men coldly, "I just gave you a chance. If you pay for the losses, I will let you go. If you don't agree, then you can wait to pay for jail time.'
After speaking, he looked at Mr. Zhao and said, "These people stuffed snow into the bamboo pipes we used for drainage, blocking the water pipes, and then deliberately put some water in, causing the bamboo pipes to freeze and burst, causing huge losses to the inn."
After hearing these words, the tall and thin man's expression changed, and he quickly regained his composure, "Princess Ye is talking empty words with white teeth, she is really bullying others."
Mr. Zhao also said: "Sorry, Princess Ye, I just checked upstairs and downstairs, and there is no such phenomenon as you mentioned. Princess Ye cannot talk nonsense without evidence.'
Shen Yue smiled and said, "Who said there is no evidence? Master Zhao, please come with me, and you, too. I will show you what is the irrefutable evidence.'
Hearing that he wanted to show everyone the "ironclad evidence", the onlookers also followed him and walked around to the backyard of the inn.
