Chapter 22: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell (I)
Li Yang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "What about the shopkeeper?" ”
"Over there" saw that it was Li Yang, just like seeing the God of Wealth, Xiao Er's enthusiastic guidance.
Looking along the room that Xiao Er pointed to, it was not far away, but the lights had been turned off.
"Your shopkeeper goes to bed so early?" Li Yang frowned a little.
The inn is a service business, although it cannot be open 24 hours a day like modern times, but it is also tried to get up early and go to bed late, and this shopkeeper should be worried about the business depression, and it is difficult to sleep.
actually slept earlier than Xiao Er.
Xiao Er gave the answer.
"This old guy doesn't have the heart to do business now, he is lazy to do it every day, just waiting to sell the store, take the money home to support the elderly, today is considered to be a late sleep, after all, you are such a distinguished guest, if you change the usual, go to bed early"
"In that case, why is the door still open?"
"That old man just wants others to see that his shop is still open, so that it is easy to sell it at a good price"
Li Yang nodded, walked towards the shopkeeper's room, and knocked on the door.
"Bangbang"
No one responded.
"Bangbang" Li Yang used some force this time.
"Dog, didn't you say that you would settle the money next month, knock on the door at night, you will die" There was a curse from inside the house.
"It's me," Li Yang said helplessly.
The cursing stopped, followed by the sound of falling and walking, and then the door opened, revealing an embarrassed little old man.
"Is there anything wrong with you?"
"Big deal" Li Yang laughed again, as if he had completely forgotten what had just happened.
The little old man frowned, obviously not very fond of Li Yangshen's mysterious appearance, "If you have something, just say it, it's not early, I still have to rest"
Seeing the impatience on his face, Li Yang sped up his pace and said, "I have a money-making business here, I think you must dare to be interested."
The little old man was really interested, "You want to sell my shop?" ”
"Uh, no"
The little old man's interest suddenly disappeared again.
Li Yang was a little embarrassed and said: "This business is my private business, and"
"What do you do?" The little old man suddenly interrupted him and asked.
The old man was clearly suspicious of his origins.
"You don't need to worry about it, my background is absolutely innocent, and this business is also clean"
"I'm sorry to be objective" The little old man didn't believe this set at all, and when he saw Li Yang's vague words, he felt that it was definitely not a good thing, so he decisively refused:
"I'm old, my legs and feet are not good, and I have to guard the store during the day and have no time to do anything else, so you should ask another smart person for this business."
After speaking, he didn't give Li Yang a chance to continue, and closed the door directly.
It's deflated!
Completely deflated!
Standing outside the little old man's door for a while, Li Yang reluctantly accepted the facts.
He thought that money could make the devil grind, especially for the greedy for money.
Where can you find such people?
In fact, there are many such people in the world, in contrast, Li Yang thinks that a boss with a failed business will be a more suitable candidate.
and even willing to take some risks to make money.
But he found out that he was wrong.
The truth is right, the mistake is wrong, he found this little old man, although the little old man also showed a greedy character for money before.
But there are many kinds of greed for money.
Because of his age, the little old man is greedy for money, but he has deeper experience and higher vigilance, so he doesn't believe Li Yang, and the little old man is too old and has lost his adventurous spirit.
"Old guy, you don't deserve to make a fortune" Li Yang snorted, and he was completely dead to the little old man.
But he hadn't given up on his plans yet.
The plan for the golden cicada to shed its shell.
Don't think that everything will be fine if you leave the world, Li Yang is just from the core of danger and has come to the side of danger - just as dangerous!
Now, he just left the place where the Tianxia Society was located, and the power of the Tianxia Society was spread all over half of the martial arts, once he had a time to relax, maybe when he woke up, he would already be surrounded by the Tianxia Society.
Therefore, he did not go down the mountain and fled with his life on horseback, which was the most stupid outlaw practice, not to mention that in one day, he could not escape the sphere of influence of the Tianxia Society.
This area is the core of the forces of the Tianxia Society, and the reason why Xiongba generously gave him a day to escape was to calculate that Li Yang would not be able to escape from this area.
Li Yang was about to escape, and he escaped safely.
Don't be an outlaw, be a smart person.
So there is a need for a plan for the golden cicada to come out of its shell.
"Tomorrow is the deadline given by the hero, and before that, you have to find a helper"
Since it is a golden cicada shedding its shell, it naturally needs a shell.
Li Yang walked back to the front of the shopkeeper's room.
"Bangbang"
"Oh, it's you" Xiao Er was disheveled, obviously ready to sleep, but he didn't show the slightest impatience when he was disturbed, but was still very enthusiastic.
Li Yang naturally knew that Xiao Er's enthusiasm was not aimed at him personally, but at the money in his pocket.
But that's enough.
"Haven't slept yet?" Li Yang's appearance seemed to be chatting.
"Didn't you sleep either, sir, are you in trouble? Despite the command, you don't have to be polite" Xiao Er tried to make an empathetic appearance.
"How do you know I'm okay?" Li Yang asked vigilantly.
"Look at what you said, I'm not blind, in the middle of the night, you want to be fine, don't sleep with your fairy-like daughter-in-law, why are you here? You come in and sit."
Xiao Er turned on his side and let Li Yang in.
"You're smart, do you know water?" Li Yang was not polite, walked in, sat down, looked at Xiao Er's room with his eyes, and asked inexplicably.
"Yes, but it's not very good, you drink water" Xiao Er replied while serving herbal tea diligently, seeing that Li Yang was examining his dilapidated house, he said a little crampedly:
"The house where the next person lives is a little smaller, and it's messy, which makes you laugh"
"It's really a little small," Li Yang said deliberately, observing a touch of decadence flashing on Xiao Er's face.
"How long have you been here?" Li Yang asked again.
"It's been more than a year"
"How much money have you saved?"
"And save money? Don't mention it."
These words obviously hit Xiao Er's sore spot, he said angrily: "This old man doesn't know how to do business at all, a good shop, life is ruined like this, the fellow villagers who came to the city with me last year to do chores, now everyone is more stable than me, just me, I have to find a new job next month, this year is completely in vain"
Li Yang nodded, and suddenly found that this shopkeeper was the best candidate for him.
Young, hard-working, about to lose their job, anxious to make money.
Li Yang took a sip of herbal tea and said slowly: "I won't tell you, I've really encountered some difficulties recently, and I need someone to help."
"Master, what do you think of me?" Xiao Er immediately volunteered, straightened his waist, and tried to make himself look stronger.
It can be seen that he has a good impression of Li Yang.
There's nothing too touching for a reason, it's because of the two taels of silver.
Li Yang is generous, approachable, and of a similar age, which is simply the ideal choice of the owner of Xiao Er.
"I don't want someone else, so I'll tell you, it's not something unsightly" Li Yang seemed to be moved by Xiao Er before he said, rather than taking the initiative to say it.
"Here's the thing, I borrowed a hundred taels from Wang Dahu's family next door to my house for business two years ago, and then went to the city to work hard, God bless and made money, a few days ago I went back to my hometown to repay Wang Dahu's money, and Wang Dahu didn't know where I heard that I made a lot of money, his eyes were red, and he actually opened his mouth to ask me for three hundred taels, you said, can I give this?"
"I can't give it, isn't this taking people as the big ones" Xiao Er looked unfair.
Li Yang said angrily: "I just didn't give it at that time, but that guy didn't let go of me."
These words seemed to arouse Xiao Er's hatred of the rich, and he took the initiative to pay attention: "This kind of person should sue him, and he will be honest after eating a board."
Li Yang sighed and said, "You don't want to, but do you know who the county master is?" ”
"Who?"
"Wang Dahu's second uncle"
Xiao Er gasped and said, "That's really not a lawsuit."
"Originally, I wanted to sue the government, but my friend told me that the officials protect each other, and this matter cannot be stabbed to the government, otherwise, I may not pay three hundred taels"
"And what do you do?"
"Run, the world is so big, where can't you make a living? No, I ran out with my daughter-in-law."
Li Yang became angry again at this time, "But that guy is still stubborn, chasing all the way here, and he also spent money to hire a few idle riffraff, pretending to be martial arts people, you know, the name of martial arts people is the most bluffing in these years, and they still lie to me and say that they are the best in the world."
"Tianxiahui, that's a great gang, so what do you say?" Xiao Er was obviously intrigued.
Li Yang said proudly: "I said that I had seen the world would help the master, and they were scared on the spot and didn't dare to stop me, but after all, it was a lie, and they must have understood it at this time, and they will definitely look for me, alas!" ”
In the end, Li Yang sighed deeply, "I'm really being cornered now, if anyone can help me at this time, I will give him ten taels of silver for nothing."
Ten taels of silver!!
Xiao Er, who was facing unemployment, heard this, and his heart beat hard.
Ten taels of silver, he has been a shopkeeper for ten years, and he can't save ten taels of silver.
What to do?
The opportunity to make money is in front of him, but that Wang Dahu is obviously not easy to mess with.
At this time, Li Yang put his arm around his shoulders, and his soft voice was like the agitation of a demon.
"God has sent the silver to you, you just need to reach out and get it, I will leave tomorrow, and you, you only need to pay one for me, not even half an hour, you can earn ten taels of silver, think about it, what are you doing in this life, can you earn ten taels of silver in half an hour?"
Xiao Er's heart was moved, but he still hesitated: "If the king knows me"
"What if you know?"
Li Yang said loudly: "Look at me, he brought a group of people to block me yesterday, but I still don't sit here properly?"
That guy was just bluffing, and I was already flying away at the time, who knew you helped me? He is not an immortal of an unpredictable prophet, take 10,000 steps back, even if he knows, at best, he will beat you, you see that I am still sitting here safe and sound, it is not difficult to see that that guy does not have the courage to move seriously."
Xiao Er was extremely entangled, and in the end he couldn't resist the temptation of money, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll do this."
"That's right," Li Yang smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
But at this time, Xiao Er said: "But I want a hundred taels"
Li Yang was stunned and exclaimed, "One hundred taels? Did I hear me right? ”
"It's one hundred taels" Xiao Er also seemed to realize that his asking price was too high, and his ears were red, but he still bit to death at one hundred taels.
Die for the bold, starve for the timid!
Li Yang was silent for a while, and looked at Xiao Er in surprise, "I really didn't look away, the deal was dealed."
Xiao Er breathed a sigh of relief instantly.
It's done!
One hundred taels!
His hands were shaking with excitement, "That money"
Li Yang's eyes widened, "You want money before you do it?" Come here with your ears."
Xiao Er hurriedly put his ears up.
Li Yang lowered his head and ordered a bunch of things in Xiao Er's ear, repeatedly confirming that Xiao Er had remembered.
Before leaving, Li Yang did not forget to warn: "Don't think about using your brains, if you dare to report to Wang Dahu, first, you don't know him, second, I dare to guarantee that he will definitely coax you with a bunch of empty checks first, and then throw you far away after finding me, and the IOU of one hundred taels dares to blackmail me for three hundred taels, and forces me to go away, if you believe this kind of person, then you don't even know how to die."
"Never, don't worry, although I haven't read, I still understand the truth of taking people's money to do things for others," Xiao Er patted his chest and promised.
In fact, he really thought about how to expand the income of this hundred taels just now, but when he heard Li Yang's warning, he still gave up when he thought of the character of the big family.
"It's good if you understand" Leaving a warning look, Li Yang went back.
Xiao Er just breathed a sigh of relief,
"Do you have pen and paper?"
The sudden sound startled him, and he thought that Wang Dahu was retaliating against him, but when he saw it, it turned out to be Li Yang who went and returned.
“… There is "Xiao Er put up with the words of complaint in his heart and gave Li Yang a pen and paper.
"Do you know how to read?" Li Yang asked suddenly.
"I'm a shopkeeper, I haven't read a book, how can I recognize words," the second child said regretfully.
Li Yang nodded, didn't say anything, and sat directly in the small second room and wrote.
The speed is very fast, and after writing, I specially wrapped it up and put it away.
took out another twenty taels of silver and put it on the table, Li Yang said: "This money is for you to buy things, how much can be left, it should be regarded as a deposit for you, as for the one hundred taels that were said, it will be counted separately afterwards."
Xiao Er's hot eyes instantly focused on the silver, and he didn't even notice that Li Yang was gone.
Li Yang returned to the house.
Youruo had already fallen asleep, although she should be vigilant when she lived in the same room with a strange man, and she was also a man who kidnapped her, but she was too tired, not only physically, but also mentally.
Seeing this, Li Yang couldn't sleep.
Will the plan be successful?
If you don't succeed, you will succeed.
The world will never let him go.
Thinking of this, Li Yang went through the plan and the details of tomorrow in his mind again, and breathed a sigh of relief after repeatedly making sure that there were no omissions.
He's done his best!
"Tomorrow we have to really start running, and before that, it's best to add a point of strength"
Li Yang originally wanted to learn the magic skills of fluorescent plates in a quiet and comfortable environment.
After all, it is a wonderful thing to be able to learn these fantastical magical skills, and if you can do it in a wonderful environment, why not?
But due to the status quo, there is no need to pick and choose.
Consciousness calls out the fluorescent plate in the brain and clicks on the learning list.
Everything is just like last time.
Li Yang is still aiming at the magic of the wedding dress.
Because this is an internal mental method.
Originally, he wanted to learn the Vajra Incorruptible Divine Skill, but he had seen the first in the world and knew that the Vajra Incorruptible Divine Skill required a strong internal force to exert the divine effect.
With his current internal strength, he can't exert the power of the Vajra Incorruptible Divine Skill even after practicing, so it is better to practice a high-level internal strength heart method to replace the ordinary Huo family heart method.
This is the best option for him.
"Wedding dress magic transfer version, do you want to learn?"
"Yes"
"The balance is insufficient, and 550 is still needed"
The heavy silver is in his arms, why is the balance still insufficient?
Li Yang couldn't help but look at the amount.
The amount is shown as: -50
-50?
It was obviously 0 before!
Why?
Li Yang thought about it, and actually laughed angrily.
This system is white, and it was actually charged to help me master the internal force before......
Li Yang really didn't know what to say, so he could only return his attention to the topic.
Although the amount item was -50, the previous amount item was grayed out, but now it is lit up.
What does this mean?
Li Yang tried it, and his method of trying was very simple, because he didn't have a choice, he would only have one way, that is, to concentrate, as if clicking on the learning list, to click on the amount.
This is taught by the system in vain, and it really works.
A message pops up on the phosphor board: "Do you want to recharge?" (Warm reminder: you can still withdraw after depositing)"
I see, I still need to top up.
Li Yang chooses: "Yes"
The heavy feeling of silver in his arms disappeared in an instant, and the silver disappeared, but the number behind the amount on the fluorescent plate was rolling rapidly.
“0、1、2、3……”
It's like watching the deposit in a savings card skyrocket, just one word:
Refreshing!
But the next moment, Li Yang was unhappy.
The numbers rolled quickly and finally fixed at 57.7 (excluding arrears)
"This ...... System failure? Li Yang looked left and right, and determined that between 9 and 7, there was one more point than expected.
It's obviously 577 taels of silver, why is there only 57.7 left after recharging?
Where did the rest go?
There is no doubt that the system is white.
"What is this? My money was hacked? The system also plays shady? ”
Li Yang couldn't believe it.
Now let's look at the amount, especially the sentence "Warm reminder: you can still withdraw after recharging"
It's almost like tempting him to take the initiative to recharge.
The system was toxic, and he decided it would be safer to withdraw the money.
"Withdrawals"
The silver was back in his arms, but the heavy feeling was missing.
Li Yang looked down and counted.
7 Liang 7 Wen ......
