Teahouse!

Ancient gossip center gathering place.

Historically, there has been no traveler who does not come to the teahouse.

Three religions and nine streams, peddlers and pawns.

This is the place where news from other worlds circulates the most.

When Lin Ye walked into the teahouse with Daohai, it attracted the attention of many guests, and the combination of a handsome noble son and a monk with blue horizontal meat was more eye-catching wherever it was placed.

Lin Ye and Daohai found a side seat and sat down, the shopkeeper came up and asked what kind of tea he wanted, and when he heard the tea ordered by Lin Ye, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Guest officer, we have a seat on the second floor of the teahouse." ”

"No, just the first floor."

If you go to the private seat, you won't be able to hear gossip.

After a while, the shopkeeper came over with a teapot to serve tea, and then took the initiative to stand aside, and when he saw that the tea was shallow, he immediately poured it full, and he was enthusiastic like an exclusive waiter.

This scene caused a table of guests not far away to be dissatisfied, and the bearded man slapped the table suddenly, pointed at Xiao Er and scolded: "Xiao Er, what's the matter with you, we are not guests, Lao Tzu's teacup has been empty for a long time, and I don't see you pouring tea." ”

The shopkeeper was scolded by the bearded man and gave the other party a sneering expression.

"Guest, you have been to the teahouse since the morning, so you ordered a big bowl of tea, asked for three melon seeds from the store, and drank thirteen cups of tea."

"So what, it's not like I didn't pay."

"Yes, you paid, a big bowl of tea only costs ten yuan, don't you want to drink in the store for ten yuan?"

Listening to the shopkeeper's explanation, the other customers in the store also looked at the bearded man, but the bearded man was not a little embarrassed, and asked with a puffed chest: "Do you have a rule in this store that you are not allowed to drink a pot of tea for a day?" ”

Shop 2: ......

Many guests: ......

There was a brief silence in the entire lobby, because there is indeed no such rule in the teahouse, but the key is that no one would be so cheeky and really order a pot of tea and sit for a day.

"If there is no such rule, why can't I continue to sit here?"

"Oh, it's Boss Hu, I don't know Boss Hu, Boss Hu, Boss Hu, don't blame, hurry up and serve tea to Boss Hu." The shopkeeper of the teahouse walked out from behind, saw the bearded man, and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Do you still know me?"

"How can you not remember, seven years ago, Boss Hu, you stayed in my teahouse for three days, and then the business made a lot of money and gave me ten taels of teahouse, I still remember it."

"Your boss has a good memory."

"The main thing is that Boss Hu is generous, and you are also doing that business this time?"

The shopkeeper lowered his voice a little, and the bearded man nodded, and said, "Yes, I want to go to Shangyang County tomorrow, this time the location is in Shangyang County, do you have any needs on your side, the shopkeeper?" ”

"I estimated that Boss Hu was coming, and I contacted two customers during this time, but they could only afford five taels."

"Five taels?"

Hu Jun looked at the shopkeeper with suspicious eyes, and the shopkeeper said sincerely: "Boss Hu, I didn't lie to you, it's really just so much money, and I'm also a hard-working person, the child in the family is sick, and the family is all for the child to see the doctor, and I have seen Boss Hu's magic and made a promise to them, so I borrowed five taels of silver." ”

"Okay, five taels will be five taels, the old rule, you will take two percent."

"Then thank you Boss Hu for the food."

The voices of the two were very soft, but Lin Ye's hearing was good, and he clearly heard the conversation between the two, and he was also curious about the identity of the bearded man for a while.

"Senior brother is curious about this person's identity?"

Dao Hai saw that Lin Ye's eyes had been looking at Hu Jun, and after glancing at Hu Jun's outfit, he said, "Wear a copper bell on your waist, white soles and black shoes...... This man is a ghost merchant. ”

Ghost merchants.

This was the second time Lin Ye had heard about this profession, and the first time he learned about it from Yang Jian's mouth.

"Senior brother, do you know the ghost merchant?"

"I've heard of businessmen who specialize in dealing with ghosts and walking in ghost markets."

Lin Ye heard the contempt for the ghost merchant from Dao Hai's tone, which made him a little puzzled, couldn't this ghost merchant do a good thing?

"Senior brother doesn't know, this ghost merchant is the most treacherous, mercenary, most of the ghosts who trade with ghost merchants in the ghost market are lonely ghosts, because they have no relatives and descendants, life is miserable, and the ghost merchant is trading with him, what he pays is just some paper clothes and paper money, but what he gets is a huge profit."

"What's in it for you?"

"Those ghosts want to trade, they need to pay the qi of ghost yin, similar to the qi of Yuan Yang of our living people, the lack of Yuan Yang qi of living people will lead to weakness and sickness, and the lack of ghost yin qi is the same."

"Then what's the use of this ghostly yin qi?"

"The qi of ghost yin, for cultivators, can be used to cultivate some kind of secret art or refining magic weapons, and for some people with special physiques, the qi of ghost yin can cure their diseases, such as the pure yang body, if there is no infusion of ghost yin qi, you will not live for sixteen."

Lin Ye understood, to put it bluntly, it was to buy low and sell high, earning a huge difference.

"With such a low cost, isn't there anyone to steal business?"

"One day ghost businessman, ten generations of ghost businessman."

Seeing Lin Ye's doubts, Dao Hai explained in detail: "Once you become a ghost merchant, you must be a ghost merchant for the next ten generations, and if you enter the ghost market, you will be attacked by other ghosts in the ghost market. ”

"There are drawbacks to being a ghost businessman, right?" Lin Ye heard it, these ten generations are all ghost merchants, and it should be a restrictive condition.

"After becoming a ghost businessman, you have to cut off contact with all your relatives, and it is generally those who are desperate to become ghost businessmen."

Alone.

God is fair, Lin Ye thought of those disciples who came out of the horse, after having a Baojia Immortal, it would be easy to make money, but it would also have to pay a price, no one was a ghost, and every time he went up, he had to suffer some torture.

It's no wonder that Daohai looks down on ghost merchants.

However, Lin Ye was very interested in this ghost merchant, and after waiting for the shopkeeper to leave, he walked over with a smile.

"Brother Tai ......"

"Brother Tai, the road is different, and it is not a conspirator."

Hu Jun directly interrupted Lin Ye's words, his tone was a little unkind, he was not good because of Lin Ye, but because of Daohai.

When Dao Hai explained just now, the voice was not small, and he also heard some of it.

They are all able to deal with ghosts, but their ghost merchants are looked down upon by Buddhism and Taoism, so Hu Jun naturally has no good attitude towards Lin Ye, who is sitting on the shore of the Dao Sea.

"There is something I want to ask, if it is convenient for the brother, I will invite the brother to sit in the restaurant opposite, which is considered a move fee."

Lin Ye's cuffs revealed a silver ticket, and Hu Jun's eyes straightened when he looked at it: "Childe, you are so polite, what do you call Childe?" ”

"Don't give your surname Lin."

"It turned out to be Lin Gongzi, Lin Gongzi has something to invite, then I naturally want to go to the appointment, my name is Hu Jun, you can also call me Hu Laosan."
