Chapter 69: Stealing Business
In Jingmo City, there is no place that can be regarded as a "corner", the population here is too large, and no road is sparsely populated, even some of the more remote places in the city are never short of people, but there are not as many people as the main street, so crowded.

Driven by this huge flow of people, it is conceivable how prosperous Jingmo City is, especially for businessmen, as long as they set up a store here, even if it is a stall, they can make money steadily, it is just a matter of more and less.
There are bazaars in many places, which are very lively, and it is not easy to find an empty space to set up a stall under normal circumstances, after all, there is no idle land in this kind of city that can be regarded as an inch of land, and someone has occupied a seat early in the morning, and outsiders want to set up a stall here, I am afraid it depends on luck.
"Alas, Fluttershy doesn't know how important it is, I didn't expect to have to do my own alchemy to heal my wounds, what is this!" Peng Hui said indignantly as he set up a stall in a lively bazaar, touching his shoulder with one hand.
He did refine a batch of pills according to the plan and sold them in the market, and the general direction was right, but there were still some accidents in some small places, such as what he was complaining about.
Peng Hui died, and in the morning he insisted on fighting Fluttershy, who was already in a tomboy state, and this didn't taste the bitter fruit, although he didn't look strange now, but he didn't know that he was repaired by Fluttershy at noon, and his soul power was one order lower than that of the other party, so he was not an opponent at all.
Not to mention that Fluttershy was a tomboy at the time, even a normal woman would not let Peng Hui go, he is cocooned today.
According to the content of his complaint, Peng Hui also spent a lot of effort refining a healing pill that suited him, and he naturally felt a little unhappy with such an extra thing.
He wanted to make some more money this afternoon and go back to show Fluttershy off his "bad spirits", but he just went downstairs and walked around a few laps before he was stunned - he couldn't find an empty stall at all!
He spent a lot of time looking for empty stalls, but to no avail, so he walked back to the inn in despair, only to be laughed at by Fluttershy when he returned.
He has a fever in the head and says, "You can do it", but Fluttershy really goes out in anger, and when he reacts to chase after him, he realizes that Fluttershy is already sitting cross-legged in a stall not far from the inn.
Peng Hui clearly remembers that there was a middle-aged man sitting there, and he was still very burly, but now that Fluttershy has come to this stall, it has changed hands!
As a result, he is ridiculed by Fluttershy again, but this time he is convinced, and after a few words with Fluttershy with a flattering face, he finally comes up with an answer, which is very uncomfortable, it seems that sometimes a girl's request really works.
Later, Fluttershy shows off her abilities very unkindly, causing Peng Hui's head to be full of black lines, and he is actually shown off.
By now, recalling the scars left by Fluttershy at noon, Peng Hui finally couldn't help but laugh and scold in his heart, and after the scolding, there was a strange laugh, which made the guy next to him look at him with strange eyes, as if he couldn't understand why this guy was moody.
What is this "contradiction", Peng Hui thought to himself, friends should be so sincere to be true friends, and Fluttershy's personality is a portrayal of her true heart, and she may be hiding her true heart as an unfamiliar outsider.
Although there is a little price to pay for this sincere enjoyment, Peng Hui is used to it, and has been enjoying this friendship painfully and happily.
"Alas, at present, we can only refine these pills. Peng Hui's eyes swept over the bottles of pills on his stall, and sighed, as if he was not very satisfied with the situation.
Speaking from the facts, Peng Hui did recover his memory of the alchemist, but some important prescriptions still did not come to mind, and they were still sealed in his mind, so he could only refine these more ordinary pills now, and he obviously felt that he could refine more advanced pills, but he had not remembered the prescriptions for a long time, and he only had to wait for them.
Sitting here and not being able to cultivate with confidence, Peng Hui had no choice but to be a trader here with peace of mind, fortunately, he had also run an inn in the past and had certain business skills, and after only a few hours, half of his pills were sold.
The elixirs he refined were mainly healing medicines, strengthening pills and the like, but they were more advanced than those brought by ordinary people's daily experience, and his business acumen was still retained, and after setting a reasonable price, he was quickly bought, and most of the buyers were mercenaries and people in a hurry, which was also expected by him.
"Hehe, I can always show off a little bit now. Peng Hui mutters to himself, and it seems that he has really been provoked by Fluttershy's competitive mentality.
Now there is still some time before dusk, and if the previous efficiency is followed, the remaining half will be sold out before then, and he quietly estimates the money he has earned today, and his smile can no longer be hidden.
Win by quantity, although he didn't make a lot of money on a single price, but if he sold out today, the money he earned would be enough for them to squander for a long time, and of course he wouldn't continue to squander it.
"Well, I have some clues, but I still can't think of it in a short time. Taking advantage of this stall guarding, Peng Hui also urged the power of the Yuan Shen to explore his "lost" memories in his mind, and wanted to recall the high-grade prescriptions he had used before, and after tasting the sweetness, he wanted to make a lot of money quickly. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could only recall the mutilated corner, and he couldn't use it at all, so he couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
After waiting like this for nearly an hour, Peng Hui was surprised to find that there didn't seem to be many people patronizing his place, he couldn't help frowning, now this point in time is also a good time to do business, this should not happen.
"Hehe, the young man is running out of patience so soon, this kind of thing is too common here, don't you even notice this?" said a middle-aged man in a stall next to him, seemingly incomprehensible to Peng Hui's expression.
"Oh, uncle, what do you mean by 'this kind of thing'?" Suddenly, someone next to him accosted, and Peng Hui also asked curiously, he is also unfamiliar with life now, so he also wants to get some news from this middle-aged man.
"Alas, it seems that the young man doesn't often set up stalls to do business," Seeing that Peng Hui seemed to be really unfamiliar with the situation here, the middle-aged man also shook his head and continued, "Doing business must be in competition with peers, you are definitely not the only one who sells pills in such a prosperous stall here, although the quality of your pills is good and the price is well controlled, but it is not enough to completely gain a foothold here based on these alone." ”
This middle-aged man looked like an old fritter at first glance, and he was very familiar with some of the unspoken rules here, and his eyes were like torches, and it didn't take long to know the basic situation of the pills sold by Peng Hui.
After that, he also pointed to a stall not far from the diagonal opposite, and Peng Hui also looked in the direction of his finger.
It seems that there is also a stall selling pills, and it can be guessed from the jade bottles in the hands of those traders that Peng Hui knew the reason for the sudden depression on his side at a glance, and he was all robbed of his business by the owner of the stall diagonally opposite.
After all, there was still some distance away, and there were crowds of people coming and going, Peng Hui couldn't see the stall owner's appearance clearly, but he still saw some eyebrows.
The pills sold on the stalls outside must only be some of the more common ones, and pills like him, which are novel but can only be used for basic healing and a short period of time to enhance some strength, cannot escape this law.
And the medicine I refined today can be regarded as close to the limit of setting up a stall outside, and all kinds of medicines are the best in the same class, so there is only one possibility if they are compared.
Peng Hui's brain turned very fast at this time, and he found out the reason in just a few moments: the other party sold at least one type of pill more than his side, and that type of pill was indeed the most attractive.
In addition to the two categories of healing drugs and strengthening drugs, there are generally several major types of pills, that is, poisons, auxiliaries and upgrades!
And the only one that can completely overwhelm both the healing class and the enhancement class at the same time is the most precious upgrade class!
As the name suggests, this kind of elixir can directly improve people's soul power, although it is a bit of a sprout, but as long as it is not overly reliant on it, it is still advisable to take it a few times, and a large number of people have reached a bottleneck when cultivating, at this time, an upgraded type of elixir can withstand the time for them to stagnate for several years to impact the bottleneck.
Under this kind of temptation that people can't get rid of, this kind of pill is naturally the most popular, but the type of upgraded pill is also very simple, so most people can almost call half of this type of pill by name.
And there is also an unwritten rule here in Jingmo City, that is, business must be done in good faith, and even the three major forces here dare not easily violate it.
Therefore, as long as they are a little knowledgeable, they will not worry about buying fakes here at all, so when they recognized that the stall diagonally opposite was selling upgraded pills, they naturally ran over, so Peng Hui suddenly lost business here.
"Upgrade the elixir...... Peng Hui said to himself, it seems that the current situation is really not optimistic, if he doesn't want to find a way, then he won't be able to do this business until he recovers his memory.
After Peng Hui thought about it for a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, he asked the middle-aged man next to him to help him take care of the stall first, and then rushed to the inn without looking back.
Peng Hui quickly ran to his room, opened the door with a key engraved with a special rune, and rushed in.
"Ahh
"You misunderstood!" Peng Hui continued to shout hurriedly, but what responded to him was a fist wind, which could not be stopped at all with his strength, and he was bombarded against the wall in an instant.
Fortunately, the inn here is not an ordinary residence, the materials of the walls are all made of very strong high-grade spiritual materials, and there are runes engraved inside, the walls are fine, but Peng Hui is in trouble.
"You big pervert, watch the fight!" Fluttershy walked towards Peng Hui wrapped in a loose coat and gave Peng Hui a hard lesson.
Peng Hui is suffering now and can't say it, who expected that this girl happened to be changing clothes when he came in, although he inadvertently glanced at some benefits, but he still felt wronged when he was hit so hard, but what can he do, in the eyes of others, he is indeed a loss, and there will be something to ask her later.
Eventually, Fluttershy slowly loses her breath, and Peng Hui slowly explains, enduring the pain, and says his request.
"If you want me to help you guard the stall for a while, you dare to come and beg me after you have offended me!" Fluttershy said angrily at Peng Hui's request, but after Peng Hui begged cheekily a few more times, she had to let go of the cruel words and go downstairs with a little resentment.
Peng Hui lay down on the bed all of a sudden, got up again after calming his heart a little and the pain almost disappeared, and then stared at the solid wall with strange eyes.
His expression was a little strange, sometimes as if he was cheering himself up to do something big, and sometimes he seemed to be scrupling about something...... Finally, he took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and suddenly got up and slammed his head against the wall.
"Ahh
The wall wasn't damaged, but hitting the sturdy wall by yourself hurt more than a Horcrux attack on the head. Besides, I crashed into it unsuspectingly.
"Whew, whew...... Finally remembered. After relieving himself, Peng Hui said to himself weakly, he touched his braincase, and he actually looked relieved.
"The fragments of the prescription that were previously mutilated have finally been completed, and one is also included. Peng Hui said excitedly, did he just want to remember more memories by impacting his brain? What a madman.
But what makes people even more speechless is that he seems to have really gotten his wish, and it seems that he has also exerted an extraordinary effect, not only completing a prescription that he has been recalling with difficulty, but also remembering another one.
"It's actually all upgraded type of pills, especially this one, hehe......" Peng Hui completely remembered these two prescriptions, and after learning the contents, he was even more happy, or he was smiling.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the room now, Peng Hui walked to the Dan furnace that had already been set up, and began to refine the Dan again with the medicinal materials he had bought in the morning and brought out from the mountain village.
This time, when he was alchemizing, Peng Hui was smiling evilly, and he seemed to be determined to snatch the business of that stall with profit. (To be continued)
