As the shopkeeper of the grocery store, Lu Renjia will get up every day when the sky is slightly bright, after getting up, he will first clean the hygiene of the store, and then calculate the inventory on the shelves, until he is busy with these, basically it is dawn, at this time, he will come to the backyard to call the guys in the store one by one, generally when the guys get up from the bed and wash up, Lu Renjia's woman has already prepared a table of delicious meals waiting for them, sometimes Lu Renjia will sit down to eat and chat with the guys in the store, listen to the joys and sorrows of these children who are half younger than him, and sometimes go to open the door of the store to welcome visitorsγ
In the past three months, the days have been as clear as the mark of a knife carved on a wooden board, not to mention the step-by-step, let alone the rules, in the big city of Lihuo, which is ranked among the top names in the entire continent, Lu Renjia is very content with his busy and complicated life, and sometimes in his spare time, he will stand at the door of the store with a wine jug and take a sip of a small wine, and then carefully observe those who live at the bottom of the society from the store in and out- are all some insignificant daily necessities, sauce, vinegar, tea, wine, meat and rice, watching one copper plate after another taken out of their weather-covered hands, Lu Renjia has some warmth in addition to happiness.
Isn't this how life should be? three meals a day, food, clothing, shelter and transportation, meeting happy people, and dealing with different people.
Because the grocery store has a complete range of items, in addition to the genuine goods, the price is one or two copper plates lower than other stores, so the No. 1 store has attracted many residents from the four cities of the southeast, northwest, and north of the fire city within half a month of opening. These people who make a living by their physical strength and dexterity every day earn a different amount of silver every month, sometimes more and sometimes less, but not more and no less, day after day, so sometimes they would rather walk a long way to come to the No. 1 shop to buy things, after all, sometimes saving some silver is more pleasant than earning those hard-earned money.
Not only because of this, but the main factor that makes many people linger at No. 1 Pawnshop is the lottery held in the store every seven days.
As Lu Renjia and Bai Qi agreed at the beginning, all customers who enter the No. 1 pawnshop can get a chance to draw lots as long as they spend ten copper plates, but with the doubling of the number of people who came to the store later, the original ten copper plates have now been increased to thirty copper plates to a bamboo stick, and the guests who spend more than ten copper plates at a time can get a discount in the store at the checkout, and only need to pay nine copper plates, but this is the case, every seven days the No. 1 store will still distribute nearly 1,000 bamboo sticks, which breaks the original agreed plan of only drawing a few to give away money, and later Lu Renjia and Bai Qiqian discussed moreIn addition to increasing the success rate of the lottery, Store 1 began to distribute something similar to the stamp - in addition to those who were lucky to be awarded a lot of money, 1 in 10 customers would receive a free shopping stamp from Store 1 ranging from a few copper plates to a dozen copper plates.
In this way, every seventh day, the outside of the No. 1 store is crowded with people, and now, it can be said that on the day of the draw, the T-junction in front of the No. 1 store is full of people, and the crowd is not lively.
No one knows what the surplus of the No. 1 shop is, only that as the No. 1 shop has become more and more famous in Lihuo City, it has been three months now, and the same grocery stores have been opened in every city in Yanguo one after another, and the names have also changed from one row to seventeen, and the shopkeepers of the shops in other cities are all sent by Lu Renjia from Lihuo City, each with its own strengths, outsiders don't know the origin of those people, but the ability of these people to do things is surprising, those shopkeepers who robbed business because of the store have not thought of a way to unite to deal with these shops with numbers, but they were strangled in the cradle before they could make any moves, about this, they are all taboo, so some people began to speculate that there is a hidden force behind these shops to support.
But no matter what the rumors are, these digital stores are constantly running like money-making machines, not only these, but the No. 1 store where Huocheng is located has now begun to get involved in big industries such as medicinal materials, with a few days ago Lu Renjia ordered a more luxuriously decorated restaurant specializing in selling lottery bamboo, and it has achieved an unexpected effect, one or two silver and a bamboo stick, and the lottery on the same day, the number of the lottery rewards ranged from one hundred taels, eighty taels, and sixty taels, and became a place favored by some sons and wealthy businessmen.
Growing small is an invisible stimulus for many people.
Now Lu Renjia looked at the crowd standing at the door, looking at the endless crowd in front of the street, and suddenly thought of the situation three months ago, at that time, he never thought that he would one day be known by so many people in Lihuo City.
Thinking of the war in the south that people have been talking about recently, Lu Renjia can't help but think that living here is happy, there is no war, let alone life and death.
It's just that Lu Renjia's brows quickly wrinkled together, as if he thought of something that made him unhappy, at this time, Qian Duoduo rushed back from outside - the current Qian Duoduo is no longer the master who saw some silver and his eyes lit up, as the abacus in charge of the accounts of more than a dozen shops, Qian Duoduo is now dressed in brocade, and his figure is much fatter than before, and he can only see a slit when he laughs with his two eyes.
Looking at the small word money on Qian Duoduo's carriage, Lu Renjia shook his head slightly, and then walked towards the carriage that had stopped, the curtain opened, Qian Duoduo got out of the carriage, and after jumping off the carriage, he handed over a bag he was carrying to Lu Renjia, "The silver has been hidden, this is the amount and accounts." β
"If you want me to say how good it would be to have it directly in the bank. Taking over the accounts from Qian Duoduo, Lu Renjia said with a smile.
"Now that the war is in chaos, the money is unreliable, and the silver is still comfortable in your hands, so it is just a little more effort to take it. Qian Duoduo said and smiled, "Think about it, what is the scene of these silver piled up into a mountain in front of you, it's better than those silver tickets, right?"
Looking at Qian Duoduo's appearance, Lu Renjia didn't have much to say, so he had to toss it, and then the two walked to the store together, came to the backyard, found a secluded room, and Lu Renjia, who poured a cup of tea for Qian Duoduo, sat in front of Qian Duoduo, "Bai Qi has already gone to Tianshui Country, if there is no problem, the store will be open soon." β
Seeing that Qian Duoduo nodded, Lu Renjia thought for a moment and then said, "I plan to open a shop in the southern countries as well. β
Hearing Lu Renjia's words, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of herbal tea in his mouth, "Old Lu, are you stupid? Now that Ning Guo and Lang Guo are fighting, every day, where do we open the store and wait for others to rob it?"
"I mean wait until the war is over, after all, they can't keep fighting, right?" said this, Lu Renjia paused, "That's what Makino meant." β
"If you don't mention Muye, it's just that, I'll be angry when I mention him, now the store is short of people, he is good, he left without saying a word, saying that he wants to take revenge, how can he take revenge alone? β
"Can I stop it?" Hearing Qian Duoduo's words, Lu Renjia smiled bitterly, "Su Qin disappeared three months ago, and Mu Ye couldn't eat because he couldn't eat every day, at that time he said that a man should repay his kindness first and take revenge, but now Su Qin's life and death are unknown, he can't wait, he can only take revenge, what can I say?"
"If you want me to say, we have opened shops to every city in the Yan Country in the past few months, if Su Qin was alive, it is estimated that he would have come to the door a long time ago, those shopkeepers are all masters that Aunt Sun has secretly trained over the years, they have a portrait of Su Qin, and there will naturally be news when they see Su Qin, and there has been no news of him for so long...... Only you believe that he is still alive, and in my opinion, Su Qin may have been reincarnated. β
"You're talking too harshly. Looking at Qian Duodu, Lu Renjia shook his head, "Didn't General Du say that they didn't find Su Qin's body, there will be a corpse when someone dies, right?"
"Can a man still see a man while he is alive. Qian Duoduo stood up as he said and looked at the night outside, "It's strange to say, I dreamed of Su Qin's kid last night, you said I didn't expect him to die, what did he tell me to do in his dream?"
Looking at Qian Duoduo's puzzled look, Lu Renjia smiled lightly at this time, and then said to Qian Duoduo something that made Qian Duoduo vomit blood, "I think about it day and night." β
Hearing Lu Renjia's words, Qian Duoduo wanted to be angry, but he didn't know what he thought of but endured it, and finally looked at Lu Renjia and said, "What do you say Su Qin is doing now if he is alive? Why don't you look for us?"
"I'm afraid I can't help myself, right?" Lu Renjia said and sighed, "Bai Qi is not having a good time these days, haven't you seen him working hard?
"Yes, so I said that Su Qin, this kid is blessed, you look at you, you earn so much silver every day, and you are still wearing a torn robe from three months ago, don't you want to wait for Su Qin to come back and hand it over to Su Qin?" Qian Duoduo said and sighed, "The people who went south together at the beginning, Xi Ri asked Lan to leave, Qi Luoge left, Su Qin also left, and now Bai Qi is not around, it's really lonely." β
"By the way, I remembered when you mentioned Qiluo Song. Lu Renjia said and took two steps forward to Qian Duoduo, "I heard Bai Qi say that he met Qi Luoge in Tianshui Country. β
"What did Qi Luo Ge do when he went to Tianshui Country?" Qian Duoduo, who heard the news, frowned.
"Bai Qi's letter didn't say it, I'm afraid I won't know until he comes back. Lu Renjia shook his head and said, as soon as Lu Renjia finished speaking, he heard a soft sound from the courtyard, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a figure standing quietly in the courtyard.
"Who?" Lu Renjia shouted, and Qian Duoduo also walked over at this time.
The black shadow didn't speak, but suddenly fell to the ground, Lu Renjia and Qian Duoduo ran over to take a look, and saw that it was an old man in a black robe, bleeding from his chest, just when Lu Renjia didn't know what to do with this person, Qian Duoduo on the side looked at the things in the old man's hand and sighed, "Isn't this Su Qin's Huangquan knife?"
