Chapter 31: The Shop of All Evils (3)
"Who said I was going to bargain! Boss Zhang, you see that I have bought so many things, and I am a big customer, shouldn't you give me some gadgets?" The scorpion walked up to the pile of swords, and this one looked at that one.
"I, Zhang Laosan, have been in business for thousands of years, and I have never heard of the truth that you have to give things away when you buy something!" Zhang Laosan frowned and said disapprovingly.
"That's the reason why your store is not big, you don't know the way of doing business, let me tell you, doing business is not about taking a product to someone, and it's over with a little money. You have to use your brains and think about recruits, otherwise if there are other stores competing with you, you will be doomed. Seeing Zhang Laosan's impatient look, the scorpion was even more proud, and directly stepped forward to hold Zhang Laosan's arm and said, "Come on, let's find a place to talk slowly, anyway, I have time, when I finish speaking, you see if you should give this sword or not!" ”
"Okay, okay, I'm really afraid of you, you have such a big bargain, and you are not satisfied. However, there are all ancient swords here, and the price is expensive, so you can't give it away, so you can pick one over there! Zhang Laosan said with a frown.
The scorpion thought that he had never used a sword, and he would not use a sword, and that the sword on his back was purely for the sake of being handsome and fooling people, and that a cheap sword would be a cheap sword, and that the stingy old man would not be willing to give him that ancient sword, so she pouted and walked to the side of another pile of swords with a pretending reluctance.
She picked one after picking it for a long time, and there was a green dragon coiled on the hilt, and the scabbard was engraved with a long sword with three big characters "Qinglong Sword".
"Are you sure you want this sword?" Seeing her determined look, Zhang Laosan asked again. I thought to myself, seeing that the girl's eyes were very poisonous when she chose the first three babies, how could she be so clumsy, and chose the most rubbish sword. However, out of humanitarianism, for fear that this sword would harm her life, he kindly reminded, "Girl, the old man can talk ahead, this sword is useless, and I also fell for an ancient immortal and took this sword." This sword will only be straight when there is no slightest murderous aura and crisis, and when it encounters danger, or something hard, it will be bent, and it can't be sharpened when it is used to peel apples! ”
"Boss Zhang, why are you so wordy, tell me the truth, I don't know how to use a sword at all, it's just a decoration, it's just scary." The scorpion said with a smile on his face, his eyes involuntarily drifted to a delicate small porcelain vase placed at the door of the store, the more he looked at the small porcelain vase with the landscape, the more he liked it, and the two legs walked over without obeying the call, picked up the small porcelain vase, turned around, and continued to say with a smile, "If you feel embarrassed, give it to me with this small porcelain vase!" ”
"This is not an ordinary small porcelain bottle, it has a cubic storage space, the key is that this small porcelain bottle is frozen all year round, and it will not rot if you put things inside!" Zhang Laosan immediately stepped forward and said.
When the scorpion heard it, this is not a small porcelain bottle as big as the palm of her hand, it is equal to a Xiaoice box, and she carries a refrigerator on her body every day, so she suddenly put the small porcelain bottle in the Jiulong play bead pot, and said: "How expensive can this gadget be, it should be a meeting gift for me, next time I will help you introduce guests to it!"
Zhang Laosan saw that she had already put it away, thinking that it must be over, and said with a bitter face: "There is no need to introduce guests, if they are all monkey spirits like you, I will be late and close the door." However, little girl, I see that you have a bit of aura, if you find a treasure one day, don't forget to sell it to me, I will definitely give you a fair price! ”
"I know, the evil store c, I should also go, if I don't leave, boss, I'm afraid that you will regret it and won't give me anything!" As he spoke, the scorpion opened the door and walked out.
"This ghost girl, more ghost than me Zhang Laosan, welcome to come back next time!" Zhang Laosan said and made a gesture of please.
As soon as the scorpion stepped out of the door, the wooden door shut. The scorpion glanced at the wooden door and thought to himself, the movement is really fast, but touching his Nine Dragons Playing Bead Pot, he has gained a lot today, so he is satisfied and ready to rush forward. However, when it came to hurrying, the scorpion was confused, which direction should he go in order to leave Huoyang City? Although, the map states how to get out of Huoyang City, but it does not indicate the specific location of the Ten Thousand Evils Store, and it is the same everywhere, dense woods, saying that there are roads, there are paths everywhere, saying that there is no road, and I am completely in the woods. Moreover, I vaguely felt that when I came, this was not like this.
After a while, she decided to ask Zhang Laosan. So, she knocked on Zhang Laosan's door again, scratched the back of her head, and said with an embarrassed face: "Boss Zhang, I seem to be lost, do you know how to get out of Huoyang City to reach the imperial capital?"
"There are two roads out of Huoyang City, one is a mountain road and the other is an official road, which one are you going to take?" Zhang Laosan asked enthusiastically.
"How to go on the mountain road, how to go on the official road? Which one do you think is better?" The scorpion asked with a puzzled expression.
"To the left is the mountain road, as long as you climb the mountain, through a dense forest to the imperial capital, do not delay at all, it takes ten days to walk, to the right is the official road, seven days to drive to the imperial capital. The advantage of the mountain road is that it does not cost money, and the disadvantage is that there are many dangerous spirit beasts in the woods, which will kill you at any time, and the detour will delay the trip. The advantage of the official road is that it goes straight, fast and safe, and a road leads directly to the imperial capital, and the disadvantage is that you have to pay a toll of nearly five thousand taels of silver! Zhang Laosan said seriously.
"What, five thousand taels? How can it be? When I came to Huoyang City from the imperial capital, I paid a few taels of silver tolls. The scorpion said in surprise.
"Come to Huoyang City? Even if you don't pay a penny, they will let you live. In this place of Huoyang City, the city lord can't wait for someone to come! However, it is not easy for you to get out, otherwise the people would have run out long ago, and there would be a deserted city here. Zhang Laosan said as if you were an idiot.
It makes sense for the scorpion to think about it, although it is separated by a pipe, a city wall, the imperial capital and here are simply worlds apart, one is heaven, the other is purgatory, there is a chance to go to heaven, who wants to stay in hell? Thinking of this, the scorpion couldn't help but become depressed, he had just shopped so happily that he didn't even have enough money for the passage. However, I like each of these treasures very much, and I am reluctant to return any of them, and there are two things that are given away for free, if I return some things that I bought, then these two things for free are estimated to be taken back by the stingy old man. After thinking about it, she still gritted her teeth and decided to take the mountain road, anyway, she also came out to experience, not in a hurry, save a little money and live in an inn or something.
After making up his mind, the scorpion thanked Zhang Laosan and took a step to the left.
"Girl, are you going to walk the mountain road?" Zhang Laosan asked in surprise.
"Yes, the official road is too expensive, it's not cost-effective!" The scorpion said categorically.
Sweat! There are people who can keep money and calculate better than themselves, and they have really met experts! The corners of Zhang Laosan's mouth twitched twice, thinking with black lines on his head, but he still reminded kindly: "But that forest is not an ordinary danger, those spirit beasts are not cats and dogs raised at home, they are quite fierce beasts, and even some of them have transformed into human forms, so that you can't recognize its body!"
The scorpion said nonchalantly: "Anyway, I came out this time to practice, there is no danger where the experience comes from!" Boss Zhang, don't worry, my life is hard! ", but secretly laughed in his heart, he was not scared, the bombs have been blown up, a few beasts, what is it? Or transfiguration into a human form? When I was a three-year-old filial piety, it was difficult for me to fail those things, and I couldn't cultivate to perfection.
Seeing that she was so determined, Zhang Laosan actually had an excited expression on his face, that funny face, and a smile, approached the scorpion and said: "Let me tell you, the spirit beasts in the forest are valuable, whether they are living cubs, or dead skin, flesh and blood, they are all valuable treasures, if you are lucky enough to meet them, remember to collect them, and sell them to me when you turn around, I will give you a very fair price!"
