Chapter 108: Strange Things in Fang City
"Patriarch, did I say it's useless? I'll take it!" replied Yun Lin with a wry smile.
"Okay! In that case, I'll take you to Duxiu Peak to familiarize yourself with the environment. With a triumphant smile on his face, Yun Dingtian turned around and left, and Yun Lin had no choice but to follow obediently.
The next day, Yunlin moved to the foot of Duxiu Peak, in a simple house behind the Fang City, and usually Yunlin cultivated in the room, but let the eagle split his soul patrol back and forth over the Fang City. This Xinfang market is also lively, most of the people who go to the market are cultivators from other places, especially the demand for pills, weapons, etc., so in addition to the grain and vegetable area, the most lively is the pill, refining area.
As a result, the alchemy and refining shops in Shanyang City have rented shops in Duxiu Fengfang City, and even some refiners and alchemists from other places have rented shops here, and the Fang Market has only been open for a few days, and there is a prosperous scene in the Fang Market, and the Yun family has also collected a lot of rent, which makes the eyes of the four major families unexpectedly hot.
In the first ten days, everything was normal in the Fang City, and there were no things that broke the rules such as the black-clothed people and other outsiders, Yun Lin was naturally happy to be idle as the manager of the Fang City on the surface, and every day he expanded the dantian in the simple room, cultivated the internal qi, the soul trick, etc., and only let the two eagles and a heron patrol the sky above the Fang City.
Xiaopang and the other five people all know that Yunlin has pets to go out on patrol instead of them, so they don't have to worry about staying in the room every day, but they have fun wandering around the market, doing some things to find treasures, after all, many goods in the hands of outsiders who rent shops are cheaper than local goods, and it is not easy to meet them in Shanyang City, and even the shops of the four major families in the Fang market are also because of the competition of outsiders, and they have also changed the style of the past high, medium and low-end goods, and become a special boutique.
In this way, in just ten days, the reputation of the Duxiu Peak market for good quality and low price spread throughout the radius of Shanyang City in a radius of twenty or thirty miles, in recent days, many local residents of Shanyang City have also made a special trip to shop for goods, or to rent a temporary shop to sell goods, the patriarch of the Yun clan after learning about the lively scene of the Fang City, and expanded a circle outside the original Fang City, and told Yunlin a few boys to carefully manage the order of the Fang City and protect the good name of the Fang City.
However, this morning, as soon as Yun Lin finished cultivating his internal qi with Shengshenggong, a scene that made Yunlin's heart jump came from the place where the Great Eagle was divided: Xiaopang and several others were being grabbed by the collar by two angry shop bosses, as if they were arguing about something, and a bunch of onlookers were attracted next to them.
Yesterday, the patriarch only confessed to take care of the order of Fang City, and today he made this mistake, Yun Lin's heart was on fire for a while, and he rushed out of the room in a smoke, and arrived at the scene in a short time.
"How do you manage this city? When you come to collect rent, you talk a lot of nonsense, and now you don't want to care about it if something happens, if you don't help you find the goods, you will return the rent and compensate us for our losses. Otherwise, Lao Tzu is not easy to mess with, bring someone over today to flatten your market!"
Xiaopang's face rose like pig's liver, and he also said a little indignantly: "You don't care about the goods in your shop, if you steal something, you can find the Fang Market, there are nearly 200 shops in the Fang City, if every shop goods are lost to us, we have to ask hundreds of people to guard the market, but how can you afford to invite so many people with that little rent! The rent is not much, but you want to let the Fang Market take care of everything, is this possible? Not to mention that this matter is so strange, we can't manage it even if we want to!"
"Then you don't care! You will suddenly faint in the middle of the shop in broad daylight, and then the thing is stolen by a monkey, but you don't want to care about such a thing, maybe this monkey is what you put it!" the strong man said even more angrily when he heard this, and he swore not to give up.
"Yes, it's the same thing in my shop, it's time for your market to take care of it!" Another black-faced strong man on the side also helped, also unwilling to take a break easily.
"What's the matter!" Just when Xiaopang was forced to be upset, a slightly immature but calm voice came from the side, Xiaopang's face relaxed when he heard the sound, and his eyes looked at the place where the voice came from, and the speaker was Yunlin, who could be rushed.
"Who are you, can you manage this?" The black-faced strong man looked at him when he heard the sound, and saw that half of the size did not seem to be able to manage things, and his heart suddenly became angry, and a pair of big hands like a fan grabbed Yunlin's collar as fast as lightning, but Yunlin was obviously much more agile, and before the big hand could touch the collar, he suddenly turned to one side, and gently and skillfully avoided the big man's grasp.
"I'm the person in charge of Fang City, if you have something to say to me, maybe I can help a little!"
As soon as Yun Lin said this, the two big men both looked at each other, obviously attaching importance to Yun Lin's words, but their faces were still suspicious, but the ring-eyed man also let go of Xiao Fat's collar at this time, and as soon as Xiao Fat was free, he hid behind Yun Lin's thin body, and he looked at Yun Lin's horse.
Seeing this, Yun Lin said lightly: "Say it slowly, if you make it clear, I may really have a way!"
Seeing that Xiaopang looked like Yun Lin as the leader, and Yun Lin had been calm from beginning to end, the ring-eyed man finally had confidence in Yun Lin and said, "That's how things are! After I opened the door this morning, I opened the furnace for the elixir ordered by a large customer a few days ago, and it was not until not long ago that the refining was finally successful, but as soon as I took out the elixir to confirm that it was successful, and put it into the jade bottle and put it into the medicine box with a happy face, I suddenly felt that there seemed to be a yin wind in the Dan room, and then I saw a flying knife flash in my brain, and my brain seemed to be injured by this flying knife, and then I fell unconscious. When I woke up again, the Shengdan medicine wooden box was gone, and I asked the owner of the opposite shop Fang Zhi During my coma, I saw a golden macaque enter the shop, and rushed out with the wooden box, and then ran out of the market. ”
"My situation is similar, it was also this morning after refining a big knife, there was a sudden yin wind in the smelting shop, and a flying knife appeared in my brain, and then I fell into a coma in severe brain pain, and when I woke up, the big knife was gone. After inquiring with the guy in the shop next door, I realized that I was unconscious, and a golden macaque had swooped into the shop and took my big knife away. Because I was in a coma for a while, one of the out-of-town guys in the store happened to come back to the store, fed me a sip of water, and pinched the person, so I soon woke up, and happened to see your people passing by, so I reasoned with him. The black-faced man said with a worried face.
Although it wasn't the people of our Fang City who took the goods of the two brothers, but in order to show my sincerity, I am willing to compensate the two pills according to the price, and the big knife is also worth gold coins, as for the macaque, it is not too late for us to look for it slowly in the future! It can also be regarded as a good fate with the two of you, can you two be willing?" Yun Lin said with a sincere face, since Yun Lin obtained a few storage belts from the man in black, he didn't pay attention to the value of a pill and a big knife, so in order to calm the matter, he promised to compensate him.
"The little brother treats people so sincerely, I admire them very much, and I am willing to make friends with the little brother. But this matter is not something that can be solved by gold coins. The cause of this incident was that at noon three days ago, a dove-shaped hoof-faced Taoist suddenly came to the shop, and he asked me to refine a Yijing Pill that can heal the damage of the meridians in the body, and the price given was very fair, and the refining cost of a Yijing Pill was twice the market price, and it was paid with spirit stones, a total of twenty spirit stones. However, the guest said that refining this pill was a friend's emergency, and he must deliver the pill within three days, that is, before noon today, if it cannot be delivered on time, he will compensate for his loss with ten times the spirit stone, that is, two hundred spirit stones. Because this elixir is the elixir that I am good at refining, and the guest pays for it with a spirit stone, although this spirit stone says that a thousand gold coins can be exchanged for a low-grade spirit stone, but I rarely see one or two. With the rarity of the spirit stone, it was naturally inherited and a contract was signed with it. Now that the delivery time is approaching, the pill is gone, even if you want to refine another one, it will take two days to do it, and the time is not in time at all, not to mention that there is no corresponding rare medicinal material in our store now, and the medicinal material is still provided by the guest. If the little brother can really provide 200 spirit stones for Zaixia, this matter should be good, otherwise it will be really difficult to do! But you!hey!" The big man with thick eyebrows was also moved when he saw Yun Lin's sincerity, but he was very skeptical that Yun Lin could provide spirit stones.
"Spirit Stone!" Yun Lin exclaimed in surprise, obviously surprised by this, although Yun Lin's soul ring has a large number of gold coins and treasures obtained from the hands of the black cloth, but there is no spirit stone, with the wealth of the man in black, there is no spirit stone, which shows the rarity of this spirit stone.
"My big knife is also a dove-shaped hoof-faced Taoist custom, but it was given thirty spirit stones, and a contract was also signed, requiring delivery at noon today, if it cannot be delivered on time, ten times the spirit stone compensation. But now I also have a big sword, and since this big knife is a prefecture-level weapon, there is no stock in the store, and now I can't hurry to refine it again and deliver it. If the little brother can fund three hundred spirit stones, he can still pass the test in Xia, otherwise with the cultivation of that Dao Yuan Master realm, I am afraid that the small shop will also be opened. Hey!" The black-faced strong man on the side said with a bitter expression, but when he looked at Yun Lin, his eyes were full of hope, obviously he regarded Yun Lin as the last straw.
"I'm sorry! I don't have a spirit stone!" Yun Lin spread his hands and said slightly apologetically.
