Chapter 13 Expansion of Operations

Bai Jingtai smiled bitterly: "Brother Lin, the big fat man has no way to teach his daughter, so you can laugh." ”

Bai Jingtai took a bite to Brother Lin, and Lin Dong naturally had to change his words, shook his head, and said with a smile: "My friendship with Brother Bai doesn't need to say this." ”

"That's ......" Bai Jingtai nodded hurriedly, and his eyes were squeezed into a little bit by the fat on his face: "Let's go, let's have a drink, with your spirit array, Bai Qi will definitely be able to enter the Guhuan Sect, and he will have to have a drink tonight." ”

"Okay, there's no place down there, let's drink in Brother Bai's room! I went and ordered the kitchen to prepare the food and drinks. ”

Although Lin Dong also wanted to rush back to cultivate, he did not refuse, Bai Jingtai was a person who could be friends, and he understood that the value of cultivation was doubled, and it was indeed worth pulling the relationship. After all, the inn will need a lot of spirit stones in the future, and you have to count on this old brother.

After getting wine and food and going upstairs, he chatted with Bai Jingtai while eating, and after both of them were a little drunk, Lin Dong got up and said goodbye.

Whether Bai Qi can enter the Guhuan Sect is a big matter for Bai Jingtai, and Lin Dong's favor is not small. At the same time, Lin Dong himself is his own life-saving benefactor, and the benefits brought by the spirit array in the future are endless, Bai Jingtai will naturally not be stingy, seeing Lin Dong say goodbye, he immediately staggered to take out the payment received this time, three silver tickets of 10,000 taels and stuffed them to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong pushed the silver ticket back without even thinking about it, the cultivation bonus of the inn was very important, and if the news was revealed, it would definitely bring immeasurable consequences. One of the reasons why he will help Bai Jingtai may be that there are not many spirit stones on the market, and the price is also expensive, and there will be no spirit stone merchant who has a relationship with the big sect in the future, but the bigger reason is the friendship between his predecessor and Bai Jingtai.

For four or five years in a row, every year I have left my business and worked hard to follow the goods, which is not a small friendship.

If Lin Dong really wants to earn silver, a hundred spirit stones and a hundred taels of silver can open the spirit array for forty days, this price is simply a joke. What does it mean for Bai Qi to enter the Guhuan Sect, he doesn't know, 100,000 taels of silver a month, if you like to use it or not, can Bai Jingtai refuse?

When I went downstairs, the inn was closed. In the lobby, Wang Liuxi and the new guy were chatting, although most of the time Wang Liumo was bragging about how majestic he was in the two nearby streets, but in the admiring eyes of the young man from time to time, the two got along very well.

"Shopkeeper!"

Seeing Lin Dong go downstairs, the two stood up together.

"Little Liu, arrange for people to buy some tables and stools tomorrow morning, and add five more tables in the lobby." Lin Dong didn't want to waste time, so he sat down on the bench, took a sip of the young man's freshly poured tea, and ordered: "In addition, the five innermost tables have a sign that states that the seat fee is one or two silver per hour." ”

"Seat fee?" Wang Liumo's eyes widened, and the young man was also at a loss.

"It means that if you sit at this table, in addition to the wine and food, you will also receive another tael of silver per hour, and those who are less than an hour will be counted as one hour." Lin Dong explained.

"Shopkeeper, ordinary guests come to eat, a meal is only ten or twenty yuan, even if it is a table of people, it is only a few hundred yuan, how can someone spend one or two silver to sit for an hour?" Wang Liuxi scratched his head: "Unless you don't write this sign, after the guests get off the table, I will take the brothers to be almost strong." ”

"I'm not a black shop, just do what I say." Lin Dong's voice was unquestionable.

"Hmm!" Wang Liumole had to nod.

"And then again, who will be responsible for finding the vendors to collect protection money tomorrow?"

"Skinny bamboo poles."

"Well, tell the thin bamboo pole, after collecting the protection fee tomorrow, let him go door to door to find the owner of the shop, and ask if anyone is willing to sell me the shop and yard together if I pay the price of two hundred taels of silver for one penny."

"Buying land?" Wang Liumo was surprised: "Why does the shopkeeper want to buy land?" ”

"Business is good, and we plan to expand our business. It's not easy to demolish and rebuild, so I bought a piece of land and closed this one after the new inn opened. Lin Dong said with a smile.

"Oh!" Wang Liu's mole suddenly.

"Congratulations to the shopkeeper for a prosperous business."

The young man hurriedly said hello, and Wang Liumo came to his senses and followed Daoxi.

"After asking questions, the statistics will come out, and then report to me." Lin Dong said.

Wang Liumo nodded, thought for a while, and hesitated: "In the case of the shop, two hundred taels of silver per cent is about the same, but even the yard is two hundred taels of silver per cent, isn't it a little higher?" Fifty taels of land is enough. ”

"Only when the bid is high will someone sell, otherwise if someone doesn't want to sell the store, God knows how long it will take."

How many belongings did Lin Ji Inn have, Wang Liuxi knew it, he didn't believe that Lin Dong could come out with such a large sum of silver, hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "Shopkeeper, if you don't write an IOU, you will always be caught, and it is not good to sue the county office." Or...... I'll take my brothers to try it, maybe it's only a dozen or twenty taels of silver for a penny. ”

Lin Dong smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I can get the silver." ”

With Bai Jingtai, a rich man, how could Lin Dong worry about the matter of silver, a friend, it is appropriate to help his daughter cultivate without opening his mouth widely, and it is also reasonable to borrow some silver for emergency when he is in difficulty.

"Okay, I'll go and explain to the thin bamboo pole."

Seeing Lin Dong's resolute tone, Wang Liumo had to nod.

When Wang Liumole left, Lin Dong looked at the new young man: "I still don't know what your name is." ”

"Shopkeeper, my name is Liu Xiu." The young man hurriedly replied.

"This name deserves you, how old is this year?" Lin Dong nodded, the young man had already been groomed, and his face was indeed delicate and quiet.

"Thank you for the shopkeeper's compliment, I am fourteen years old this year."

"Fourteen?"

Compared with the head, Liu Xiu is a little taller than Tianhao, and he didn't expect to be three years older. Lin Dong looked at Liu Xiu with a little surprise, his face was white and clean, and his skin could compete with girls, although he had thin arms and legs, he didn't look like a person with a bad family background and malnutrition.

Seeing Lin Dong so surprised, Liu Xiu's face turned pale, and he was a little speechless.

patting Liu Xiu on the shoulder, Lin Dong smiled: "Don't worry, I remember a recipe for a long man, write it down for you later, you give it to the cook, let him prepare meals for you according to the recipe every day, just say what I said." ”

"Really?" Liu Xiu said happily.

"Of course it's true, as long as you keep exercising, it may not be able to catch up with your peers, but it won't be too bad." Lin Dong nodded with a smile.

"Thank you, shopkeeper!" Liu Xiu stood up, bowed deeply to Lin Dong, and said excitedly: "Liu Xiu swears that no matter what difficulties the shopkeeper encounters in the future, Liu Xiu will do his best." ”

Lin Dong sounded a little weird when he heard this, but he didn't care, he smiled and pressed his hand, and after Liu Xiu sat down, he said, "Who is there at home?" ”

Liu Xiu calmed down, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and replied, "There is a father, and some brothers and sisters. ”

A few? Lin Dong frowned, it seems that it is a big family! The reason why he chatted with Liu Xiu was to see if he could leave this superb guy in the inn forever. But now it seems that the difficulty is almost zero.

After all, although the monthly salary of more than ten or twenty taels of silver is unattainable for ordinary people, it is not worth mentioning to the young master and son of a large family. Unless...... Liu Xiu likes to be a buddy, although his surname may not be high, it is not impossible.

"Since your home is in the capital, how can you come to a remote place like Sealand City?"

Liu Xiu hesitated for a moment and explained: "My father is still martial, and we will assess our brother's strength every year, and after our brother reaches the age of sixteen, my father will also be in charge of some industries according to our strength. I have low talent, I am fourteen years old, but my strength is still in the agility period...... Master asked me to go out of Beijing to the west to find a noble person who could help me, and then I was stolen......"

"Noble? Sound weird? ”

Lin Dong didn't say anything, but Liu Xiu knew what he meant, scratched his head, and waved his hand a little incoherently to explain: "Master is not a magic stick, and his easy skills are unmatched." He said that even if I meet the top alchemist, it will only change my strength, but it can't change my fate, and only nobles can change my fate. ”

Listening to the tone, Liu Xiu obviously respected his god stick master very much, and Lin Dong didn't have much to say. I was slightly disappointed in my heart, assessing my strength, Liu Xiu is obviously not just a big family, not to mention a family. From Liu Xiu's mouth, he could also hear that this young man was thinking about how to improve his strength, and naturally he didn't like to do anything.

It seems that there is no play!

Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, but still gave up telling Liu Xiu that he had a 'Spirit Array' that could speed up the speed of the spiritual energy when he cultivated. The other functions of the inn are good to say.,Spread it out just to attract some covetousness.,The inn's defense system has a kicking function.,Plus the defense value.,It's not scared.。 But if the function of the cultivation bonus spreads, it will definitely attract peak powerhouses, and with the level of the inn, the defense value can't even withstand a punch from others.

Although Lin Dong has a good impression of Liu Xiu, he has not yet reached the level where he can risk saying the 'Spirit Array'.

"Let's do it at the inn first, and I'll ask if there are any merchants in the city who go to the capital, and I'll pick you up when the time comes."

"Thank you, shopkeeper."

"Go to bed early!"
