Chapter 3 Black Shop

The sky was cloudless, and the strong sun shone on this fertile land, and it was the next morning.

Today's most discussed topic is undoubtedly a series of conflicts between the Yue and Ye families, and many people know that the two families are secretly fighting with each other, but there are still very few people who really do it, and coming to this point also means that the two families are already on the same page, and the situation is irreparable.

The sudden outbreak of the fight, of course, was related to Yueqi'er's disappearance last night, but fortunately, in the absence of direct evidence, a little friction broke up, but everyone knew that it was just the calm before the storm.

It was summer, although the weather was very hot, but it did not affect people's normal life, Guheng City, among the many cities of the Qianqin Empire, was only one of the instream, located in a remote area, not to mention, the living environment was also very bad.

Surrounded by forests, except for the only road that connects with the outside world, the other areas are full of dangers, and monsters are infested, and if you are not careful, you may hide in the belly of the demon.

Its danger is self-evident, however, the Thousand Beast Forest has unique resources, all kinds of precious elixirs, and beast cores...... The abundant interests stimulated some bold businessmen, and cultivators would come here.

In order to avoid the attack of demon beasts, Guheng City is surrounded by tall city walls, and the inside is a residential area, so it is safe to live in it.

There are only a few streets in Guheng City, the most lively is nothing more than the Moon Treasure Hall, which is already overcrowded at this time, this is a restaurant, its biggest feature is that it is good quality and low price, water and wine, and food, which are slightly better than others in Guheng.

With such conditions, it is difficult not to be popular, and as a result, many hotels in Guheng City have collapsed, and Yuebaotang is in charge.

In contrast, the other shop was colder, empty with only two people, and the shopkeeper was looking at the ledger on the counter, and soon shook his head and sighed, and glanced at the street from time to time, his eyes full of helplessness.

Since the moon treasure hall came, the business has dropped to the freezing point, and it is losing money every day, so what else can it do? Is it possible to smash other people's hotels?

Forget it, the shopkeeper scolded countless times in his heart, I remember that last time a guy went to Yuebaotang to make trouble, but he was broken and threw out directly, and it was chilling to recall that scene.

The black-faced young man on the side was slowly wiping the table and chairs, the shopkeeper's every move was under his eyes, that kind of look, that kind of expression, he couldn't be more familiar, he didn't have to think about it, he must be worried about money again.

The young man's slightly darkened face looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and his figure was a little taller than his peers, and his biggest feature was nothing more than his bright eyes, clear and sharp.

It is not difficult for those who pay a little attention to notice that the boy's face is obviously disguised, and such a clumsy disguise technique can hide from the careless.

"What do you see, continue to work, don't want the wages anymore?" As soon as the shopkeeper looked up, he saw the eyes cast by Ye Yuntian, and he was distressed at this time, so he couldn't help but feel displeased, and said loudly with a straight face.

Ye Yuntian slowly lowered his head and continued to wipe the table, and did not show dissatisfaction, this kind of thing has been experienced more and numb, people are under the eaves, and they have to bow their heads.

The shopkeeper knows best, he is stingy, and he can't tolerate others more casual than him, no, today he has wiped the doors and windows of the tables and chairs several times, and it is spotless, but he still has to continue to work, what kind of mentality is this?

If it weren't for the purpose of hiding his identity, Ye Yuntian would have patted his ass and left, how could he suffer here.

......

Finally, after wiping it over and over again on a cloudy day, a miracle appeared, breaking the record of zero customers in the store in the past few days.

The person who came was a young man, with a delicate face, neither thin nor fat, carrying a small bag, and he looked calm and unhurried when he walked around, looking like a young master from a large family, and more like a businessman.

The young man stood outside the store, already sweating profusely, only to see him take out a clean cloth from his backpack, gently wipe the sweat from his forehead, and look up at the plaque on the door.

"Five-Spice Sprinkle Building"

The young man tightened his backpack with his hand and strode in.

The shopkeeper was also clever, and quickly put down the account book in his hand to welcome out, and finally a guest came, of course, to show a good service attitude.

"What do you need to order, I have good water and wine here, first-class food, and you are satisfied...... shopkeeper asked respectfully as soon as he stepped forward, nodded his head, and happily introduced some of the famous dishes of the restaurant.

The young man looked around, but he never thought that the shopkeeper here would be so enthusiastic, and replied with a smile, "No, open a room for me."

"The young man must have come from out of town, if I guessed correctly, you are still a businessman," the shopkeeper said with a smile as he took the money.

I have to say that the shopkeeper's vision is indeed very vicious, and he can see through it at a glance, no wonder he has read countless people, and no one has seen it.

The young man didn't hide it, and said, "That's true, I borrowed some capital this time, and I heard that Guheng City is rich in all kinds of resources, so I came, I hope to earn some."

"There are not a few people who die in the Thousand Beasts Forest every day, and most of them are merchants, seeing that the young man is not a cultivator, but he comes here alone, this courage is enough to make people convincing" The shopkeeper arched his hand, and his eyes showed a look of worship.

"It's been a prize, it's the so-called wealth and danger, in fact, I also came with a caravan this time, and after arriving in the city, I went my own way," the young man patiently explained.

"I see, then you should buy the beast core, right?" asked the shopkeeper, his eyes lit up.

"Harvest, the beast core, the elixir, and the ore are all ......" The young man was overjoyed and hurriedly responded.

"Then look at this one" The shopkeeper carefully took out a delicate red box from under the counter and slowly opened it, "This is a third-order demon beast core, I got it by accident, how much do you think he is worth?"

"Third Order?" the young man was stunned, picked up the beast core and observed it carefully, his movements a little rusty.

Sure enough, based on this action alone, the shopkeeper had already judged that this young man was not very experienced, since he was not a cultivator, it was not ordinary difficult to check the authenticity of this "beast core", and then said, "I didn't sell this beast core when someone offered two hundred Xuanjin coins, if the young man fancied it, I will buy it for you two hundred and fifty Xuanjin coins."

Ye Yuntian on the side had already been unable to bear it, looking at the two people talking, because the distance was not far, he could also hear a little, when the shopkeeper took out the beast core, ah no, it should be said that it was a worthless stone, a small stone that can be seen everywhere by a small river not far from Guheng City.

It seems that the shopkeeper is going to deceive people again, I'm afraid he can only deceive novices like him, Ye Yuntian silently prayed for the young man in front of him, "I hope he won't be confused by the interests in front of him"

If you really respond, then you are the real two hundred and five, Ye Yuntian thought to himself, this is an out-and-out black shop.
