Looking at Li Mang, who waved his hand to collect a truckload of fabrics, Xiao Yangzhou trembled and couldn't speak, his little face was pale, obviously frightened. Hearing that Li Mang asked him to keep it secret, he nodded his head busily.

"Yangzhou, what are you doing here?" Li Mang thought it was funny, but he could understand it.

"Anaconda...... What are you capable of? Xiao Yangzhou stammered at him.

"I'm a cultivator now." Since he showed this skill in front of him, Li Mang naturally no longer concealed it.

"Cultivator? Storage gear? As a young man in the new era, although Xiao Yangzhou is usually honest, he is no stranger to online game novels.

"Almost." Li Mang did not elaborate.

"......" Xiao Yangzhou was silent. Although he has always felt that Li Mang is mysterious and secretive, but now that he learns these 'unscientific' truths, it is still difficult to accept for a while, after all, the concept of the world world for more than 20 years collapsed in an instant.

"Do you know why I'm talking to you all of a sudden?" Li Mang looked at him and asked.

“…… Either they're going to kill me. Xiao Yangzhou told a bad joke, but even he didn't laugh.

"Among several people, your personality is the most calm, and you don't talk much, I am most relieved to tell you this." Li Mang was blunt.

"......" Xiao Yangzhou was silent and did not speak, he knew that Li Mang's words were not finished.

"I'm short of trustworthy people right now, so I hope you can start cultivating as well and help me in the future." Li Mang said.

Xiao Yangzhou was taken aback, but he was not in a hurry to agree, but after thinking about it, he asked, "What about Xuelin?" ”

"You want to ask Zhao Hong, right?" Li Mang looked at him with a smile.

“…… Hehe. Xiao Yangzhou stiffly laughed and acquiesced, he did have concerns in this regard. After cultivating by herself, what should your girlfriend do? If they want to separate, Xiao Yangzhou really has to think about it.

"It's not necessarily a good thing to let you cultivate. Let's just say that at the moment, I have too many enemies, and because of the rules in the cultivation world, they won't treat mortals like this, but if you become cultivators, those people will blatantly retaliate, and even endanger their lives. So...... No one other than you should enter this circle for the time being, which is one of the reasons why I want you to keep it a secret. Li Mang's expression was serious.

There was a pause. He added: "Of course, you can choose to refuse, you are my brother, I will not force it." Entering this world may not be glamorous. Maybe it's even darker and more brutal. ”

Xiao Yangzhou frowned and thought about it for a while, but finally shook his head with a wry smile and said, "How can you let me refuse this temptation?" ”

Indeed, cultivating together really has a fatal attraction for mortals, even the ancient emperors were looking for immortal methods, and Xiao Yangzhou was no exception. He couldn't refuse Li Mang's invitation.

"Don't worry too much, I'm here to help. At the very least, your cultivation will not be short of resources. Li Mang was relieved.

After Xiao Yangzhou calmed down, the two drove back to Taoxiang secretly, and Li Mang quietly sneaked back to his ghost lake courtyard without seeing anyone, and then returned to the realm of mountains and seas.

Yucheng's positioning point, except for the first random, as long as Li Mang walked through, he could directly shuttle over, so he could directly move things from Zhaoyao Mountain to the shop he rented, and no one would notice his small shop.

Put it on the counter first, then the shelves, as well as the desk and the safe, although it is bulky, this is not difficult for Li Mang, and he wasted a lot of effort and quickly arranged the interior properly.

In the end, Li Mang also personally put out some of the cloth and placed it on the shelves and counters, and the small store was already in shape, just waiting to open to welcome customers.

Of course, the door plaque has not yet been hung, although he does not plan to make the store very luxurious, but a façade is always indispensable, not to mention that he is ready, and there is even a herringbone ladder, which is still made of aluminum alloy.

Half of the door was opened, and Li Mang took out the customized signboard like a curtain. The first to nail the stainless steel gilt frame, in the middle is four gilded characters...... "Shanhai Commercial Bank"

The name was taken by Li Mang casually, this is the realm of mountains and seas, so he simply took the name of 'mountains and seas', as for whether it will have the same name as other commercial houses, Li Mang can't be exquisite.

This signboard is not very special in Yucheng, after all, it was made by Li Mang temporarily, it is only average, the door of the store is half-hidden, and it is impossible to see what is sold inside, and the passers-by showed a strong interest in the aluminum alloy herringbone ladder under Li Mang's feet, pointing and pointing, which made Li Mang really cry and laugh.

After nailing the signboard, Li Mang was not in a hurry to open the door, but found the garment shop in front according to the guidance of the previous clothing store shopkeeper. The location of his shop was adjacent to the garment workshop, which was also an advantage that Li Mang considered in advance.

This so-called garment workshop is of course not a factory, but just a market, where women are scattered on both sides of the road, making clothes for people and sewing and mending for people. These are all poor women, who are forced to come here to find a living, and their status is very low.

In addition to the stalls, there are also many shops on both sides, where production, sales, and sewing are integrated.

When they learned that Li Mang was looking for skillful hands at a high price, and he was also sewing cloth and clothing, the weaver girls on both sides enthusiastically signed up.

However, Li Mang was quite demanding, and looked at their craftsmanship on the spot, and finally selected five people, three of whom were sixty-year-old mothers-in-law, who were very good at handwork, which made Li Mang amazed.

The other two are middle-aged women, and although the handiwork is not as good as the previous three, Li Mang mainly considers that he can let them act as salesmen when he is busy.

Back at the Shanhai Trading House, looking at the bright cloth in the store, the five women were so frightened that their faces turned white. These fabrics may be ordinary in modern times, but in this era, they are expensive luxuries, and how much does it cost to have such a big house.

Li Mang looked at them in his eyes, but he was more confident, and then said, "You choose some cloth and make me a dress first." ”

"......" The five women looked at each other, but none of them were motionless, looking embarrassed.

"What, what's the difficulty?" Li Mang raised his eyebrows.

"It's not...... Yes, the shopkeeper, we have never touched such a precious cloth, and we don't know what to do. An old woman was resigned.

"None of you have touched the cloth?" Li Mang frowned, it was really not easy to do this, after all, what he needed was skilled hands.

The four of them shook their heads at the same time, these cloths are so precious, only a few families in the whole Yucheng can afford to wear them, they have never even touched it, and they usually sew animal skins.

Li Mang looked at the old woman who didn't shake her head, and vaguely looked forward to it. If it doesn't work again, he may only be able to sell cloth in the short term, and he may be able to buy finished products directly from the real world, but the quantity is huge, and it is still ancient costumes, and once it continues, it will inevitably be suspected: What are these clothes used for?

"The old body did come into contact with it, and he once sewed two sets of clothes for people, but ...... Poorly done. The old woman said euphemistically that she was afraid of damaging these expensive fabrics, and she couldn't afford to compensate for them.

"It's good to do it, the cloth doesn't have to be pitied, it's used generously, even if it is damaged, I won't be held accountable." Li Mang saw what she was thinking, hurriedly relieved, and found the needlework scissors that were ready, motioned for her to do it, and did not forget to tell the four people next to her: "You also watch the dots." ”

After receiving Li Mang's assurance, the old woman was relieved, so she carefully picked up the scissors and began to select the cloth, and after measuring Li Mang, she began to work.

It is worthy of skillful hands, although there was some discomfort at first, but the movements soon became numb, and a needle and thread were threaded, and a robe was quickly completed.

"Yes, yes, it's just a little monotonous." Li Mang put the robe on his body, the handiwork is very good, the scale is not bad, but it is monotonous and simple, but in this world, it is already bright and beautiful, and Li Mang does not force it to be luxurious and beautiful for the time being. Now he is a businessman, he knows how to go through the cycle, and when the business calms down, he can easily release some beautiful styles, which can easily achieve the effect of boosting performance.

"Each of you sews another set for me, and then each of you sews another set for yourself, don't be afraid of damaging the cloth, strive to be proficient as soon as possible, and don't make a mistake when you open tomorrow." Li Mang commanded them.

"Do it for us?" Several old women were taken aback by hearing this, each foot of these cloths cost tens of thousands of spirit coins, how dare they waste it.

"Yes, for your work." Li Mang nodded, this is not only to make them familiar with their hands earlier, but also to improve their image, this animal skin clothes are really a little out of place with the style of Shanhai Commercial Bank.

Li Mang found a table, swung it to the door, found a piece of red paper and pen and ink, and studied it for a long time before writing a line of crooked words: one shopkeeper and two shopkeepers.

Then sit down at the table and wait for the rabbit.

There is no paper in this world, and they all use animal fur to write, and now Li Mang took out a big red paper, and the table he set out was also a little smooth and bright, and the pedestrians who came out looked sideways, but few people came up to apply, even if a few came, Li Mang was not satisfied.

The shopkeeper naturally has to be honest and calculating, and the guy must at least be shrewd, and now a few people with sharp beaks and monkey cheeks have come to apply, and Li Mang has been very polite if he didn't blow them away.

An afternoon passed, Li Mang was stunned that he couldn't recruit anyone, so he had to sigh and hell.

"Let's go back, I'm off work now...... After work, remember to come over on time tomorrow morning to report. Li Mang sent away the five happy women, closed the door, and came to the backyard kitchen to cook some food, of course, the ingredients came from the birds and animals in the mountains.

It is a two-story building, the first floor is the shop, the second floor has three rooms, a small hall, and a small courtyard at the back, and the kitchen is also at the back.

This is not a prime location, and the reason why Li Mang chose to build a store here is to consider the living area. There are shops, houses, and a small backyard, which gives Li Mang a sense of steadiness. No matter how good the environment in the mountains is, it is not a place where human beings should live, and this mountain and sea business house is Li Mancai's first home in the world, and he also has high hopes
