240 Ransom

We found a ghost rope and tied together the dozens of ghosts that didn't run away, and even their broken arms and legs were tied up in a pile, tied into a big ghost ball, and pushed them to the door of the store to be placed.

At this time, the city guards outside were still busy catching ghosts and chasing ghosts, and they didn't have time to take care of the aftermath on our side. And they only have to catch ghosts, and what to do with them later will have to wait for someone from the ghost department to take over. As a last resort, Teng Shuli sent Wei Dahu to inform the people from the Ghost Affairs Division to come over.

After the situation calmed down, the other stores also began to clean up the mess and count the losses. They also tied up all the ghosts they caught and threw them at the door, just like the Longevity Hotel. According to Tian Laolu, this is done because the ghost secretary will use Yin Yuan to buy these ghosts who have broken the law for a while, and it will allow the store to recover a little loss.

At this moment, a ghost actually came back alone. He saw that the city guard was far away, and then he walked straight up to us and asked, "Who is the shopkeeper of this shop?" ”

The ghost was obviously from the Iron Crutch Gang, it was lame on both feet, it was loaded with wooden legs, and there was an iron crutch under each side of the creaking nest, which looked a little different.

"What else do you want to come for?" Teng Shuli asked angrily.

"I'm Tie Zhang, and I want to talk to you about business."

Teng Shuli was stunned for a moment, and looked up and down Tie Guan again, but he didn't expect him to be the boss of the Tie Gui Gang!

"You're the Iron Crutch? What business do you want to talk about? ”

"You have tied up more than a dozen of my little brothers here, I want to ask you to let them go!" Tie Guan Zhang was not ashamed, pointing to the pile of ghosts and said.

"What the hell are you looking for death? Believe it or not, I'm tied up with you now! Teng Shuli was furious, rolled up his sleeves and was about to do it.

"Hey! Hold your horses! Tie Guan Zhang was not in a hurry, only took a step back, and continued: "The people from the Ghost Affairs Division are here, and they are just spending a Yin Yuan to buy you a ghost." I'm going to give out two Yin Yuan now and redeem my dozen little brothers! ”

Teng Shuli really hesitated, pinching his chin and still thinking about it.

"Two is too little, three each!" He replied.

"My little brothers are all missing arms and legs, even if the ghost secretary pulls them to the right market for auction, no one will want to buy them. Don't say three Yin Yuan, I'm afraid I can't even sell two Yin Yuan! ”

"Two and a half! Since it's your little brother, aren't you willing to spend half a yin yuan more? ”

"Just two! I'm risking being caught and I'm coming back to save them now, and even if I can't, they won't blame me! "That iron crutch resolutely refused to retreat, and he refused to give even half a yin yuan.

"Boss! Hurry up and go, leave us alone! ”

"That's right! Boss, the people from the Ghost Affairs Division will be here in a moment! ”

"My other leg is also broken, it's not worth two Yin Yuan!"

"What are you? I have broken both hands and legs, and I have become a 'ghost stick'! ”

"My head has been knocked off, and my body doesn't know where to go?"

"Here it is! Here it is! But can you please move your foot to the right first? Kicked in my face! ”

"Oops, sorry bro! I'm going to move! ”

The gang members of the Iron Kidnapping Gang were really righteous and persuaded their boss to leave quickly. Teng Shuli also began to have a big head when he heard this, and seemed to be a little moved.

"Hey! Iron crutches! I'm the third-in-command of the big fortune! At this time, another big ghost in the ghost pile shouted, "Look at me, I'm big and full of strength!" The big head has been defeated by you, and the big head gang must have broken up, or you can buy me too, right? I'll be your little brother! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! I'd like to worship you as my boss! Buy me too! ”

"I'm willing to join the Iron Kidnapping Gang too!!"

"I, me, me! And me! ”

The minions of the Big Head Gang actually made a noise, and they all expressed their willingness to surrender and change their courts. Before Tie Guizhang could express his position, Teng Shuli seized the opportunity to shout: "Tie Guizhang, there are a bunch of ghosts here, all of them are missing arms and legs, how can I tell which ghost is from the Tie Gui Gang and which one is from the Big Head Gang?" You either buy them all, or don't even want to buy one, just at the price you said, two yin yuan one! ”

Tie Guan Zhang was defeated by the army, and he was helpless. He looked down and thought about it, but then quickly made a decision: "Deal!" ”

In order to save time and complete the transaction before the arrival of the Ghost Division's people, Teng Shuli simply asked us to cut all the ropes that bound the ghosts, and then start counting the ghosts' bodies. Many ghosts have lost their hands and feet and even their heads, and they can't be wrong if they count their bodies.

After counting, there were fifty-six ghosts in total. Tie Guan Zhang happily threw one hundred and twelve Yin Yuan to Teng Shuli, and then waved his hand and shouted: "No matter whose hands, feet, or head it is, quickly pick it up and follow me!" When you get to a safe place, take your time! ”

The ghosts hurriedly agreed, and ran away in a panic with Tie Guizhang. These runaways, those who have two legs use the run, those with one leg use jumping, and those who have no legs just pick one up from the ground and pick it up, and they also run away. After a long time, the scene was very funny!

Uncle Teng flipped the money bag in his hand and said with a wry smile: "Okay, this can be regarded as recovering a little loss!" ”

The people of the Ghost Division are long overdue. Moreover, the two gangs of ghosts fought, so that the shops on the three streets suffered varying degrees of damage, and they could only go to the door one by one to collect the ghosts. Wei Dahu had no choice but to return to the Longevity Hotel alone. When he saw that the store had been cleaned up and resumed normal business, his mouth was so surprised that he couldn't close it.

"What about the ghosts?" "Where have they gone?" he asked. ”

Everyone burst into laughter. The only thing that answered him was Granny Qin's pipa tune, melodious and elegant, as if the thrilling riot just now had never happened!

The rivalry between the Big Heads and the Iron Kidnappers ended in a complete victory for the Iron Kidnappers. The next day, the streets from Fifth Street to Seventh Street quickly returned to their former hustle and bustle. The damaged shop was largely untouched, and was reopened after simple repairs.

According to Wei Dahu's understanding, after the Tie Gui Gang annexed the Datou Gang, it is currently the strongest in this area, and there is no biggest competitor, Tie Gui Zhang is no longer satisfied with monopolizing the freight business of the shops, and even began to meddle in other industries.

Wei Dahu said disdainfully: "There are many dragons and snakes in Zuo City, and there are countless big and small gangs. If Tie Guan Zhang is at ease to do his hard work, if he dares to cross the line, he will inevitably touch the interests of other big ghost gangs. In the future, this fight will still be fought! ”

But the ghost gang disputes on the street actually have little to do with the longevity hotel, even if the Iron Kidnapper Gang doesn't mess with others, others will come to provoke them. In short, as long as there are so many ghosts in the lower city, and there are still so many conflicts of interest, it is always inevitable to fight every once in a while. At this time, I really felt the chaos of law and order in the Yin City, no wonder Teng Shuli complained about the lack of nursing homes as soon as he came.

However, as long as the riots outside do not tear down the entire longevity hotel, the business in the hotel will not stop, and it will continue to operate as usual every day. Gradually, I got used to this state of being ready to fight.

In addition, because I performed very well in fighting ghosts that day, and I did not have stage fright at all, I was also seen by Teng Shuli, and from time to time encouraged me to learn more kung fu from Wei Dahu, which seemed to have the intention of training me to be a nurse.

At first, I was reluctant to do so, after all, my old profession is to be a chef, and my master is the former head of the imperial dining room of the prefecture, so why should I be wronged to be a nurse? But then I slowly observed and found that in this Yin City, the status of the chef is not as good as that of the nurse!

There are many ghosts in the Yin City, and the security is poor, so it doesn't matter whether the food is good or not. Whether a restaurant makes money or not, the more important thing is whether it can ensure that it can operate normally every day. As long as it can be opened, the source of customers is never worried, and there are few cases where customers complain about the quality of meals.

There are several reasons for this. First, the level of ghost chefs who can be selected into the Yin City is not much different, and the ghosts in the underworld do not have much choice, and they will never be picky like the ghosts in the yang world;

The second is that there are many customers, the price is high, and the ghost customers use Yin Yuan to check out, and the cheapest dish is one or two Yin Yuan, and the ghost who has no money really can't afford it;

The third is the place outside the law, where fists speak, not only in the catering industry, but also in other industries in the Yin City.

The most important thing in the shops that sell goods is the nursing home that can fight and kill, not the shopkeeper who can talk about lotus. Otherwise, the ghost gang will come to the door, and it won't work if you rely on your words. The most important role in the caravan is definitely a strong dart master, not a master who is good at bargaining. Otherwise, even if you buy good quality and cheap goods, you won't be able to safely transport them back to Yin City.

At least, in this longevity restaurant, compared with the head chef Yu Lazi, Teng Shuli obviously values Wei Dahu more, and discusses anything important with him.

Thinking about it, I also had an ambiguous attitude, and promised to ask Wei Dahu for advice on kung fu when I was free. Wei Dahu has learned martial arts since he was a child, and his martial arts are much higher than Yin Gong's cultivation, so he is indeed a good teacher.

A few days later, I was cooking ghost food in the kitchen as usual, and suddenly Xiao Xiao ran in and said to me: "Brother Xiaosheng, someone is looking for you outside!" ”

"Who's looking for me?" I kept in my hands and asked him casually.

"He didn't say his name, but he was a city guard!" Xiao Ji said as he shivered, and seemed to have palpitations.

"City guards?"

"Hmm!"

Yu Lazi on the side also felt surprised, and interjected and asked me, "What are the people from the city guards looking for you for?" ”

"I don't know!" I myself was even more confused.

"Go ahead! Go ahead! You go out and take a look, and I'll give me this pot of dishes! Yu Lazi took my shovel, and then reminded: "If you have any trouble, tell the boss, don't make your own decisions!" ”

I agreed, washed the grease stains on my hands, and then walked out of the kitchen with Xiao Ji in confusion. When I arrived at the lobby, I saw a heavily armed city guard standing outside. He wore a helmet that covered his face, wore standard leather armor, and carried a sword on his back, but he did not ride a mount. I just came to Yin City, and I didn't break the law, what did the city guards do when they came to me?
