Chapter 134 Amenities (3)
But after a moment of silence, she added, "Well, it's not like we can't work together even if we can't regulate the dungeon. At the very least, that will give some kind of protection to this place."
This was the most that Tian Tian could compromise.
After all, she had to think about the benefits of the Mercenary Guild that she was representing. She couldn't just hand over complete control of the dungeon to Lin Fan since that would hurt the benefits of the Mercenary Guild.
So, she could back down and work in tandem with Lin Fan and the town that he led.
She recognized that it was more than just the dungeon that would pull people here, it was also the town, or rather this inn.
She knew that a town couldn't just grow from having this dungeon, without proper facilities to accommodate this growth, this town would fall apart and there would be no way of regulating the dungeon. All that this would do is create chaos in the surrounding area and finally cause the dungeon to become a wildland.
Without the proper facilities, no one proper would come here and none of the sects or organizations would be able to earn anything from this place. The only ones that could earn benefits from this place are the demon sects or the criminal organizations.
So that was why Lin Fan was worthy of working with the Mercenary Guild, it was all because of the facilities that he had set up for this town.
If there wasn't Lin Fan, they would have to invest quite a bit of effort just to run this town and that would negate the worth that this town has. So it was better for them to work with Lin Fan and have the people of the town run it.
Lin Fan also recognized this and he nodded in agreement to this.
After that, the two of them went into further detail on how the cooperation would work.
It was a back and forth discussion, but in the end, both of them were able to get what they wanted and were happy with the results.
Since their meal and discussion was over, there wasn't much left for them to do.
It was at this time that Duanmu Ming Yue suggested, "How about you try our outdoor bath?"
"Outdoor bath?" Tian Tian asked in an excited voice, "You have a hot spring source here?"
Duanmu Ming Yue nodded and said, "It was just found recently, but we've already used it to build outdoor baths for all of you to enjoy."
Tian Tian's eyes lit up when she heard this. It had been a long time since she had been able to have a proper soak in a proper bath, but that just went to show how rare an outdoor bath like this was.
So that was why she was surprised to find an outdoor bath like this in a remote town like this. Of course, that didn't stop her from enjoying it.
Without any hesitation, she headed off to the baths along with the only other female mercenary.
The male mercenaries looked at each other before excitedly heading off to the baths as well.
Lin Fan didn't miss this and he followed after them.
Tian Tian was his woman, it wasn't as if he could let anything happen to her.
So other than an attempt at peeking, the bath was quite peaceful.
When the male mercenaries came out, they were almost dragged out by Lin Fan. On the other side of the bath, Tian Tian looked very refreshed by her bath.
She almost looked like she was glowing, making her even more beautiful than normal.
But that was also related to the water that she had bathed in.
There wasn't a naturally occurring hot spring in this area, so this hot spring was actually made by Lin Fan. Well, not made by Lin Fan, but rather bought from the Dungeon Master System.
Since the town was also part of the dungeon, the things that Lin Fan bought from the Dungeon Master System could also be placed in the town. So Lin Fan had bought this for the inn to give the inn a specialty that would draw people in.
Of course, Rokuko had complained that it was a waste of their DP, but Lin Fan had insisted and bought it even with her complaining.
Seeing Tian Tian now, he felt that this purchase was definitely worth it.
However, as a hot spring that came from the Dungeon Master System, it clearly was not a normal hot spring. This was a hot spring that had a special beautifying effect and a minor health effect.
It would improve the health of the ones that bathed in it while also making skin much more beautiful.
Tian Tian had also noticed this when she came out of the bath. She couldn't help looking at herself in the mirror as she said, "This is…how did my skin become so smooth?"
Duanmu Ming Yue explained, "The water for our hot spring has beautification effects and small health effects."
Tian Tian didn't seem like she believed it at first, but taking a look at her skin, she had no choice but to believe it. She then turned to glare at Lin Fan as she said in a bitter voice, "You had such good things and you didn't tell me about them."
Lin Fan just gave a bitter smile and said nothing.
He knew that women could get irrational when it came to beauty products. That had been the case in his previous world and it certainly was the case in this world.
So he knew that the best answer was not to answer at all since he knew that she just wanted to complain.
As expected, Tian Tian gave up on him and turned her attention to something else that she found.
Outside of the bath was a rest area and in this rest area, there were many strange things that she had never seen before.
There were a few single seater padded chairs lined up in a row, there was a large metallic box that had a see through window in the center of it with several bottles behind it, and there was a strange table that had a net in the center of it.
She didn't have any idea what these things were, but she couldn't help being attracted towards them.
The first thing that she came to was the large metallic box with the see through window since that was the strangest thing in this rest area.
She carefully looked it over and found that there was a slot for her to insert coins into. Then she looked through the window and found that there were prices marked under each of the bottles that were put behind the glass window.
The prices for each bottle wasn't that high, so she decided to test it out and put a few coins into the slot prepared for it. After she put the coins in, she found that there was a light that lit up beside each of the bottles.
After looking at each one for a bit, she pressed the light that was beside the one that she liked the most.
The moment that she pressed the button, the bottle suddenly moved forward until it was pushed off the shelf that it had been on. It fell off the shelf and fell all the way to the bottom of the glass window, disappearing from sight while making a large clanking sound.
Tian Tian looked around, but she wasn't able to find the bottle at all. She even started to think that she had been cheated, but Lin Fan pointed at the slot at the bottom and said, "Open it and you'll find it inside."
Tian Tian looked at Lin Fan with a confused look, but she still followed his instructions. She opened up the slot and she found the bottle that had dropped down lying there waiting for her.
She happily took out the bottle and opened it to drink. As soon as she did, she could taste the sweet strawberry taste that had been promised, along with smooth milk taste.
This was a drink that she had never tasted before and was unlike anything that she had tasted. After all, she never would have thought that strawberry and milk would go together so well like this.
Once she had her drink, she turned her attention to chairs that were placed in a line.
She sat down to enjoy herself, but then she noticed that there was a small box on the armrest of the chair that also had a slot like the one for the metallic box. She looked at it carefully before choosing to also put some coins in here.
The moment that the coins went in, the chair started vibrating.
She jumped out of the chair as she was caught off guard by this vibration, but then she sat back down and enjoyed it.
The vibration that came from the chair, this feeling was just too good. It was almost as if her body was melting from just sitting in this chair.
But of course, as the chair vibrated, so did her body. This created quite the show with her twin peaks shaking like the world was ending.
The vibration of the chair didn't last long, but it was more than enough for Tian Tian. It had completely relaxed all the muscles in her body.
The only thing left for her to explore was the table with the net in the center of it.
This one was something that she couldn't understand by herself, so Lin Fan took the initiative to come and explain this to her. That was after he had taken care of the male mercenaries who had looked at her with lewd gazes.
He explained the rules of the game to her before playing a game with her.
Lin Fan couldn't help being distracted by the swaying of her valley, but since he was someone who already knew how to play the game, he still won in the end.
Tian Tian had an unhappy look on her face since she had lost, but there was no hiding the excited look in her eyes. It was clear that she enjoyed playing this game very much.
So Lin Fan was forced to play several more rounds with her.
Finally, when she was tired, he handed off the table to the other mercenaries who had been waiting for their turn.
The two of them sat down in the massage chairs and Lin Fan asked Tian Tian, "What do you think? Will it work?"
Tian Tian looked at all the things that she had tested and fell into deep thought.
This inn, it was unlike anything that she had seen before…
After a moment of pause, she gave a nod and said, "Un, it'll work."
Lin Fan revealed a happy smile at this.
It seemed like his plan was going perfectly.
