The assistant innkeeper responded happily and ran out to get his cousin.
The men squatting around the inn all specialized in guiding people and providing interpreting services. They were all villagers or people from the town nearby. This was once the territory occupied by Great Jin, so they all knew some Jin language. Because they lived near to the grassland and often traded with those tribes, they also knew their language. Thus, they had no difficulty communicating with those people.
This provided them with a source of income during the off-peak farming season. If done well, the money earned from this wasn't inferior to farming.
As soon as they saw the smiling assistant innkeeper run out of the inn, a man shouted, "Wen San, your cousin is looking for you. He must have found a job for you!"
Everyone looked at Wen San, who was squatting on the ground, envious of the fact that he had a cousin who worked as an assistant innkeeper.
