Chapter 49: Paradise and Business

"Now the archmages must be mad. ”

There is no need for others to explain to Qian Jing at all, and he can immediately figure it out himself. The first explosion was unexpected, and the second one was sluggish. But what does it mean when the archmages scanned the city and sent out golems that could be reconnoitred in the wilderness, only to be blown up for the third time?

Qian Jing would not say the word "incompetent", what if the mages had the ability to hear or feel ridiculed and came to trouble him? I don't know if there is such a thing as "slapping in the face" on the fortress star, if there is, the archmages may feel a pain from the cheeks to the corners of their eyes.

"It's definitely going to change. Qian Jing sighed, what should be busy with something.

The locals who have taken refuge in the protective circle are both adults and children. After the archmages sent out the golems, some of them went back, but at the time of the third explosion, they hurried back. They had all seen the isolation of the Golden Circle, a few meters across the street from the center of the explosion, a wrecked ruin. And between the lines, there was no harm in the circle, and even the excess dust could not be seen.

The neighbors made it clearer, recounting the explosion in vivid colors, and increasing the trust of the people of the Fortress Planet in the Circle of Protection, who saw the White Flag Grocery Store as some kind of "super magic fortress", or the kind that provided free entry and exit and shelter without discrimination. Qian Jing understands their feelings, so it is easy to come to a conclusion: with word of mouth, more and more people will gather here, and it is likely that the store's tolerance limit will be exceeded.

Therefore, some kind of order must be formed.

Qian Jing, who always thought of bad luck in front of him, or Qian Jing, who was planning for a rainy day, went to Laisha to talk about it, but he didn't expect Laisha to speak first: "Qian Jing, Sister Feng told me a good plan, and I decided to implement it according to that." In this plan, you have an important role: you manage the day-to-day affairs of the store. I'm going to give you the authority of the temporary shopkeeper now, and we're all very optimistic about you!"

BUT I'M NOT VERY OPTIMISTIC ABOUT MYSELF, I THINK I'LL DO SOMETHING - QIAN JING'S INNER ROAR ALMOST BLURTED OUT, BUT HE HELD BACK. You can't lose your performance points in front of the beauties you want to chase, right? Although Qian Jing also knows that he doesn't say anything like this, it's just a bit stupid to be reckless, but thinking ability is one thing, and courage and thickening the skin are another.

"Okay, I'll try. What's the extra authority of the shopkeeper?"

"Well, the biggest part is that you can use credits on credit, as well as some store remodeling. By the way, you have to be very budget-conscious, and the money in the store is not very rich. "I think you're far better than me when it comes to initiative and improvisation. And you are a very honest and good person, that's what Sister Feng said. ”

"I'd rather you call me a forensic doctor than use the title Sister Feng, I'm not crazy. Feng Lingzhu fell on Zhuang Xian's shoulder, pretending to be weak and powerless.

Girls are all drama spirits - Qian Jing complained - and he would rather be a hooligan than be a good man, but he has no talent in this area and is not trained!

became a temporary shopkeeper, which can be regarded as a battlefield promotion, but it can't be done by temperament in front of the real store manager. Qian Jing still honestly talked about his thoughts. Raisa agreed, and once again reiterated that "let Qian Jing take care of it himself", and then stepped on the golden protective ring and walked in the direction of the fortress tower.

"Ghost, come to help!" Qian Jing shouted for the first time: "Hahaha, I'm the shopkeeper now! Although it's temporary, I can finally drag you to work!"

The ghost is reluctant, but as the soul of the White Flag grocery store, it is protected by the rules of the White Flag, so it must also be subject to the rules. "Okay, I'm here, little money shopkeeper. You can think about it, you are only temporary, and the days to come will be long!"

"Actually, I know the best ghosts, smart and beautiful, and know a lot more than I do. Qian Jing said to her: "I have an idea, our house was originally a warehouse, and there was a lot of space. Let's draw a children's garden and put toys on it. I expect that there will be more and more people in the future, and then there will be a trade-off. There should be no objection to the protection of the child first. ”

The ghost nodded: "You're right, the Fortress Star is pretty much the same as Earth's tradition in this regard." However, some civilizations prefer children to be tested earlier and more often, so women and children are not given priority. ”

"And that kind of world? Why?"

"I could have given you three hours to elaborate on it, but ...... What am I going to do next?"

"Oh yes, it's business. Qian Jing carried a pen and paper with him, took it out and began to draw skillfully. "Did you know that some big shopping malls have special playgrounds for children? I don't know? Forget it, do you have an idea of what a kindergarten is? Let's put up tables and chairs here, put some toys, and set aside a place here to put some leather balls. I remember there were a lot of toys in the warehouse, playing with these children, and selling them by the way. Your job is to play with them and maintain order here. ”

The ghost stared at Qian Jing with wide eyes, and his lips trembled with excitement: "Really? I can play as much as I want? As long as these children can play well? Is my dream going to come true?"

"What does this have to do with dreams?" Qian Jing didn't understand what the female ghost was excited about. "Oh, by the way, there's one thing I have to say earlier: you are not allowed to inhale yang energy. ”

"Of course, of course, no need for your nonsense. The ghost snatched the schematic map of the venue from Qian Jing's hand. "Small money, quickly transfer things from the warehouse. Oh, I have some toys that I can bring over, and I'll send them to you right away, can you send them together?"

Hey, why does it seem that she is still directing herself? Qian Jing shrugged her shoulders, anyway, everyone is a cooperative team, so there is no need to care. He looked around, and there were still plenty of empty spaces, enough to hold on for a while, so it was imperative to set up a children's area as soon as possible. It would be more acceptable to wait until the environment was in place before announcing the child-first rule.

The idea of building a children's paradise is not groundless, Qian Jing knows that there are many toys from the past in the first temporary warehouse, so he has a bottom in his heart. Most of the inventory is a backlog of goods, or old toys that no longer compete with video games, such as clockwork frogs, hula hoops, spinning tops, bubble blowers, and bamboo dragonflies.

"I don't have time to calculate specifically, let's pack them all at once, anyway, these things don't sell for much on the earth, and I don't know what kind of place I will go to next time." Qian Jing looked at the freight in the salesperson system and found that it was not expensive, so by the way, he packaged and transported the materials for making soybean paste No. 1 and the current finished product.

The ghost also contributed some of her toys, mainly various chess cards, such as checkers, backgammon, flying flags, and strong hand chess. The first two are okay to say, can the people of the Flying Chess and the Strong Chess Fortress Star play? Look up at the sky, the magicians are flying, maybe they are not interested in moving forward one block at a time. This is especially true of strong hand chess, who can understand the names of places on them? Qian Jing and Ghost have translators behind their ears, and the people of the fortress have never learned Chinese.

"What are you going to do with these things?" Qian Jing asked the ghost, but saw a surprising scene. The ghost landed on the ground, conjured clear legs and feet, and began to jump sideways from side to side at high speed. The so-called high speed is the kind of popping sound that has been connected by stepping on the ground, and it is almost impossible to distinguish the rhythm.

In front of Qian Jing, there were remnants of ghosts and ghosts, distributed on the left and right sides of the horizontal jump trajectory. Suddenly, the horizontal jump stopped, and the two afterimages went into action separately. They're all ghosts, but their bodies are half lighter.

"You're still going to be a doppelganger? This is amazing! What does a doppelganger feel, is it schizophrenic?"

"You only need to die once and you will understand everything, stinky little money!" "Run away, run and run and run into the same ghost again? ghosts don't master the high-end way of moving in space, they are all doppelgangers arranged in advance!"

"Is the shadow clone like this?" Qian Jing couldn't believe it. After the ghost gave him two blank eyes (one doppelganger and one eye), the two ghosts began to jump sideways from side to side at the same time. Two-quarter, four-eight, by the time the ghosts were sixteen, the color was very light, and she finally stopped panting.

"Little money, let me take a breath of yang qi and replenish it. ”

"One mouthful, not sixteen. "The money mirror is absolutely clear. In fact, seeing the ghost turn himself into a shadow clone is to take better care of the child, and he doesn't mind being sucked an extra puff or two.

Qian Jing and sixteen ghosts were busy setting up the children's area to prepare for the expected crowds. On the other hand, Liusha Wende, who bought the No. 1 soybean sauce here in Qian Jing, tightened her hands in her sleeves and cautiously rushed back home. She heard an explosion on the road and felt the ground shake, but she didn't stop.

"Miss, go from this side, the defensive barrier over there has been opened. The steel gate opened, and the butler held a slender wand with a glowing tip to lead the way for Lyusa Wende: "There were explosions one after another just now, and the lord has been worried about your situation. I'm going to report the news that you've come back safely, and I'm sure he'll be very happy. ”

"You're going to send a letter, great, by the way, tell Dad I'm going to find him, there's something very important. ”

"Probably not very convenient. The Lord is instructing Master Wells in the Golem Operation Room. ”

"If only you said that this matter is particularly important. Liusha's fingers slid over the bottle containing Soy Sauce No. 1. "My brother's ability to control the golem is good enough, and there is no one his age who is his opponent, but my father is not satisfied. ”

The butler smiled and didn't say anything. He waved his wand and pulled a handful of sand from his bosom and threw it into the air. The sand turns into a lizard with dragonfly wings, and under the transparent skin is a letter made of sand spelling. The lizard lingered in the butler's ear for a second, then flew away with a whoosh.

"Daddy's in the Golem control room, I'm going to look for him. You don't have to accompany me, just go about your own business. Lyusa Wende quickened her pace and followed the trail of the flying lizard.

"Don't run into the defensive barrier!" the butler shouted from behind, "Also, as long as you are coquettish, the adults will agree to anything!"

Liusha Wende has always been a particularly obedient and well-behaved child, and she is deeply loved by her parents. She hardly mentioned anything difficult, and she usually didn't need to be coquettish. Besides, Liu Sha was sure that this time was a very serious and important thing, good for everyone in the entire family, how could she waste her precious opportunity to be coquettish?

She hurried to the golem's control room, just in time to see her father come out with the flying lizard in his hand. The blue candle on the outer wall of the control room door is still glowing and burning, indicating that the Golem is still in use. My brother is still busy inside? Could it be related to the explosion?

When Archmage Red saw his daughter, he smiled and crushed the lizard, turning it into a fine stream of sand. "Just come back safely, the explosion outside is amazing, and I've been worried that you'll be affected. ”

"Dad, I can protect myself, but thank you. Liu Sha hooked her fingers: "Dad, I have something important for you." ”

"Okay, but you have to hurry. The Stronghold Mage Lord Sami El is convening a meeting of the Core Ring, and I have to go right away. ”

"Dad, remember the pick-up coupon I took from your drawer? The White Flag grocery store opened again, so I went to try to redeem it, and sure enough, there was something you said about increasing elemental sensitivity. ”

"The white flag is open again? Well, that's interesting, I still have a lot of pick-up tickets, you can take them all." Archmage Red said, "After so many years, I thought those pick-up coupons were all in vain, but I really didn't expect the White Flag to open again." Did it go well when you went to pick it up?"

"It's good!" Liu Sha said: "The new salesman is called Qian Jing, although he didn't know about the pick-up coupon at first, he worked very hard to help me inquire, entertained me very politely, and then gave me the things." ”

"Well, that's not bad. However, you have to be aware that the smell and taste of something weird can stimulate elemental sensibilities, but it has a certain toxicity and needs to be detoxified by alchemy. All things considered, that thing is quite expensive, and now that there are alternatives, it seems inappropriate. However, anyway, it's a pick-up ticket, so you can take it and pick it up. ”

"Dad, I'm talking about this, look at the new White Flag. ”

Liu Sha took out the first bean sauce, personally performed the magic of detecting poison, ate a spoonful herself, and then fed a spoonful to her father. Archmage Red closed his eyes and felt it carefully, and then nodded slowly: "This should be a product with the same main ingredient, and the effect is almost exactly the same, but it tastes much better, and it can also supplement nutrition, it can be said that it is a food, and it can also be a medicine." ”

"This thing is called Soybean Paste No. 1, it is completely non-toxic, and the price is the same as the same weight of stinky tofu. Dad, if there are no complicated alchemy and detoxification steps, isn't this very suitable?"

"The price is the same? So it's more suitable, it's very suitable. Red thought about it for a moment, and then said to his daughter, "Go and buy it, how many are within 20,000 stones (elemental coins)." You're going to the magic contest right now, report this thing in the name of food supplies, and I'm sure I'll get it through. Sammy Elle's prize this time is very important and I hope you will be ready and give it your all. ”

"Well, that's what I thought too. But Dad, can you tell me what the prize is?

"I'm not going to tell you, all I can say is definitely worth the effort. Red touched the top of his daughter's head: "Okay, I'll have to leave if there's nothing else, the meeting will start soon." The white flag is back, and that's news. ”
