As soon as the shop opened, a middle-aged monk in a crimson robe walked in.

Gu An hurriedly stepped forward and greeted, "Guest officer, what do you need?" ”

The man in the silk robe waved his hand casually, "I heard that your Jindantang purchased the spirit grass, and the valuation is very conscientious, is that so?" ”

Gu An said again and again, "Our store is based on integrity, and never deliberately lowers prices, steals beams and changes pillars, Taoist friends please!" ”

The man in the silk robe was led to the inner hall to sit down and serve a cup of spiritual tea.

Gu Dezhao stepped forward and said: "The old man is the shopkeeper of this store, and the Taoist friend has been invited, I don't know what treasures are ready to be sold?" ”

Zhao Lin also followed, and did not come forward to talk, just sat aside to observe and study.

The acquisition of this piece in the store has always been Gu Dezhao's responsibility, this old man has been in the industry for decades, and his eyesight and scheming are first-class.

Since its opening, Palm Eye has purchased all kinds of cultivation items, and there has never been a mistake, and Zhao Lin has also benefited a lot.

"Treasures can't be talked about, just a few spirit grasses."

The man in the silk robe said in his mouth, reached out and patted the lock bag on his waist, took out three wooden boxes and put them on the coffee table.

Then he said in a casual tone: "Please shopkeeper palm, how many spirit coins are these things worth." ”

"Then the old man is welcome."

Gu Dezhao answered, gently opened the wooden box, took out a snow-white sesame spirit grass with an ink stain on the top, and looked at it carefully.

"This is Egret Zhi, which has medicinal properties to benefit qi and calm the nerves, solidify the foundation and cultivate the yuan, and is often used to refine and consolidate the elixir of cultivation."

Gu Dezhao said as he looked at the spirit grass upside down to see if there were any damage marks and lines on the sesame flesh.

At the same time, the nose is lifted and the smell is light, and the fragrance of the medicine is distinguished.

After a while, Gu Dezhao put the spirit grass back into the wooden box and said to the man in the robe: "A wild egret mushroom, the medicinal age is about forty years, the quality is good, and the purchase price of our store is seventy-five spirit coins!" ”

When the man in the silk robe heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Good eyesight, let's take a look at the other two." ”

Gu Dezhao nodded, opened the other two wooden boxes, and took out the spirit grass in them to check them.

"A green sheep flower, thirty years old, the petals are slightly damaged, and the purchase price is sixty spirit coins."

"A plant of Changyang grass, forty years old, in good condition, the purchase price is one hundred and twenty spirit coins."

After speaking, he looked at the other party with a smile and asked, "Is the old man's offer Daoist friend satisfied?" ”

The man in the silk robe smiled slightly, and pushed the three wooden boxes forward, "The price is very fair, so let's do it." ”

Gu Dezhao called the bookkeeper and paid two hundred and fifty-five spirit coins.

The man in the silk robe took the money, but he was not in a hurry to leave, and took out a small brocade box from the lock bag, "I still have something here, I don't know if your store will accept it?" ”

Gu Dezhao was stunned, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then sat down slowly, "As long as it is something that can be traded, this store can buy it." ”

Zhao Lin secretly praised in his heart, Gu Dezhao is worthy of being an old Jianghu, his acting skills are first-class, and he can't find the slightest fault.

In charge of the store for more than half a year, Zhao Lin is no longer the rookie he was at the beginning, and the purpose of the man in the red robe entering the store was not to sell the three spirit grasses, but to sell the things in the brocade box, which was just a foreshadowing.

This trick is called throwing stones and asking for directions.

For example, if you have a valuable thing in your hand, you don't know its value, and you are afraid of being slaughtered.

First, I took a few worthless items and asked for a price. If the merchant gives a satisfactory offer, it means that the store is trustworthy.

As for why you don't just take the valuables and ask the price everywhere, maybe the seller has something unspeakable, or the source of the thing is unknown, etc.

Gu Dezhao must have known the other party's thoughts, but he made a surprised look, and Zhao Lin had to admire it.

"Then let's trouble the shopkeeper again."

The man in the silk robe opened the small box, and suddenly the aura overflowed, and the brilliance flowed, and a bead the size of a pigeon's egg was lying inside.

"Spirit Beads!"

Gu Dezhao exclaimed, this time his expression was not pretended, and he glanced back at Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin was slightly surprised, he was very familiar with this thing, he carried out the task of collecting spirit beads the year before last, I don't know how many he had seen, and now there is a three-grade spirit bead in the lock bag.

Judging from the size and quality of this spirit bead, it should also be a third grade.

"Yes, it's a spirit bead."

The man in the silk robe leaned forward and asked, "I don't know how much the shopkeeper bids?" ”

"Wait for the old man to see."

Gu Dezhao picked up the spirit bead, grabbed it in his hand, and as soon as he inhaled it, a spiritual energy immediately poured into his body.

After a few moments, the orb was placed back into the wooden box.

"How?"

For the first time, the man in the silk robe showed a concerned look on his face.

"There is plenty of aura, and it has hardly been used."

Gu Dezhao pondered for a while and reported a number: "Fifteen hundred spirit coins, forty good deeds." ”

When Zhao Lin heard this, he was slightly surprised, when he was on a mission, the three-grade spirit beads could only be exchanged for one hundred spirit stones and twenty good deeds.

The price of Gu Dezhao is fifty percent more spirit stones, and the good deeds have doubled.

But I quickly figured it out, the task is the task, the sect can't not earn a penny, and the monks on Chiwei Island also have to make money.

The man in the silk robe remained silent, and only said two words: "Low." ”

Gu Dezhao hesitated for a moment and looked back at Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin Zhengse said: "But rely on the ancient. ”

Gu Dezhao pondered for a long time and said: "The spirit coins can be sold up to 1,800, and the good deeds can be added to five more, and there can't be more." If the guest officer is still not satisfied, he will have to ask you to find another place. ”

"It's okay for the price."

The man in the silk robe finally agreed, with a look of satisfaction on his face, put away the spirit coins and good deeds tickets and left quickly.

"The old man is good at making an assertion, buy this spirit bead, Shopkeeper Zhao doesn't mind, right?"

Gu Dezhao put away the spirit bead and said apologetically.

"Zhao believes in ancient vision."

Zhao Lin didn't care, thought for a while and asked, "Is this spirit bead easy to trade?" ”

Gu Dezhao said with a smile: "Of course, the spirit bead is easy to carry, absorbs the spiritual energy quickly, and can also be exchanged for money when you are down, but it is a hot item." ”

"The old man's bid is higher than the market price, just hoping that the man can come back and sell the spirit beads to us. But looking at his appearance, it's unlikely. ”

Then he said with some regret: "I said during the last meeting that our store lacks goods that can be used and finalized, and Lingzhu is!" ”

Zhao Lin secretly thought in his heart when he heard this, there are not many places to produce spirit beads, and most of them are from Chiwei Island.

It would be nice if he could get Chu Hongtian's support and take the spirit beads from Chiwei Island to the store and sell them.

It's a pity that he is a small Qi Refining Realm cultivator, and he is not qualified to negotiate conditions with the island owner at all, even if he comes forward, he has to be Lu Yuanxiu.

Maybe when the time is ripe, let's see if we can say that Lu Yuanxiu can operate.

……

It's September.

Early that morning, Gu Dezhao walked out of the store and went to the administrative office to run errands.

The lease of the sign expires in one month, and Zhao Lin mentioned it yesterday, and Gu Dezhao thought about renewing the lease as soon as possible, so as not to let other stores grab the spot.

At the beginning, Zhao Lin rented six billboards, and Gu Dezhao was so painful that he was so angry that he almost wrote to Zhou Hongfang to denounce this kind of loser behavior.

But now it seems that the notice is too much to rent!

A point of investment, a very reward, many guests are attracted to see the notice.

As long as customers enter the store, they will be dazzled by the store's "discount", "buy gift", "full reduction", "exchange", "discount on discount" and other promotional methods, and basically there is no one who goes out empty-handed without spending money.

"This junior!"

Thinking of Zhao Lin, Gu Dezhao smiled unconsciously.

I don't know how this man's brain grew and he came up with so many new ideas.

To put it in his heart, at the beginning, Zhou Hongfang let himself, an old shopkeeper of decades, assist a fledgling junior, and he was somewhat resistant in his heart.

But who made the family have the talent for cultivation and be deeply respected by the head of the courtyard?

As a result, after working together, I found out that Zhao Lin was not only a great cultivator, but also a simple mind.

What's even more rare is that Zhao Lin acts in a low-key manner, and never pretends to be a big shopkeeper unless necessary.

Whether it is the customers who enter the store, or most of the peers in the market, many people still think that they are the big shopkeepers.

"Shopkeeper Gu, come to the lease renewal sign, right?"

Gu Dezhao walked to sign it, and Steward Liu asked with a smile.

"Yes, I didn't expect that Steward Liu still had the ability to predict the future."

"Where is it, how long does the Gu shopkeeper plan to rent this time......

A quarter of an hour later, Goodman walked out of the office with eight more signs in his hand.

This time, he ruthlessly rented two more billboards in one go, and directly rented them for a year, spending nearly 5,000 spirit coins.

It's a little more expensive, but the value of this money can earn back ten times and dozens of times the profit.

After a short time, I returned to Jindan Hall.

Gu Dezhao walked to the counter, ready to put the expenses into the account, and found that it was Li Sancai who kept the account, and Wan Jingsheng was missing.

"What about Lao Wan, why aren't people here?"

Gu Dezhao frowned.

Although Wan Jingsheng is over seventy years old, his body has always been tough, and he usually does not eat less health pills, how can he leave his post without permission?

Didn't he rely on his son to be a foundation building monk, so he wanted to rely on the old and sell the old?

Gu Dezhao was displeased in his heart, and his face sank.

"Shopkeeper Zhao asked Wan Lao to write and stick, in the inner hall."

Li Sancai replied.

"What kind of notebook to write?"

Gu Dezhao said suspiciously, and walked towards the inner hall.

"Wan Lao, I said that you wrote, the shop went out of business, and the whole site was cleared at a low price, and it was only sold for three days!"

"Then two days, one day, the last morning, the last afternoon...... Three days back, two days ......"

"Write again: the old store is newly opened, and there are more surprises."

"Opening promotion, three days, two days...... Zongmen congratulates, and the whole world celebrates. ”

Gu Dezhao was stunned, why did it sound so wrong, exuding an aura of conspiracy.

When I walked into the inner hall, I saw a stack of red paper spread out on the coffee table.

Zhao Lin and Wan Jingsheng sat opposite each other, the former dictating, and the latter moving the pen on the paper.

"What's the new idea for Shopkeeper Zhao?"

Gu Dezhao walked over, picked up the red paper and looked at it one by one, and felt that the whole person was numb after reading it, which was too immoral.

Zhao Lin raised his head when he heard this, "The first day of October is the great congratulations of the sect, and it is almost the end of the year, I want to do a big promotion and strive to sell more goods, what does Gu think?" ”

The corners of Gu Dezhao's mouth twitched, "It's good, but let's write like this, others still have to jump in anger?" ”

"What feet? As long as the things in the store are cheap, the customers will not be held accountable. As for the friend shop, if you love to jump, jump away. ”

Zhao Lin smiled and sat down, and then his expression changed, "Ancient, I will discuss something with you." ”

Gu Dezhao wiped the sweat from his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Lin took out a page of paper from his arms, "I have probably made a list, let Brother Tang go back and bring some more goods, and see if there is anything to add." ”

Gu Dezhao was surprised: "Didn't you just ship a batch of goods?" There is also quite a bit of stock. ”

Zhao Lin pointed to the red paper on the coffee table, "These are posted, and the warehouse will definitely be cleared in half a month, so we need to stock up some more goods, and strive to rush the performance before the end of the year." ”

"Rush performance?"

Gu Dezhao was stunned, but he also understood, took the list and swept his eyes twice, nodded and said: "That is the case, add more spiritual tea, spiritual honey, and a few more ...... to the robe."

The two discussed for a while, and quickly sorted out the list.

Zhao Lin called Tang Zhengquan, "Brother Tang, work hard to go back to the county and transport the goods on the list." ”

Tang Zhengquan took the list and carefully put it into the lock bag, "Don't worry, shopkeeper, I will leave for the county and return in about five days." ”

Gu Dezhao advised: "It's okay to slow down, don't be in a hurry, these batches are all valuable goods, and you can't miss them." ”

……

One day in mid-September, bursts of firecrackers sounded in front of Jindantang.

The firecrackers in the immortal cultivation world are not firecrackers that are roasted on the fire like in the mortal world, or cannons made of gunpowder, but special firecracker charms.

Firecracker charms are similar to warning charms, making firecracker-like sounds and lasting longer.

As soon as the firecrackers rang out, the nearby monks flocked to it.

"Which one is this?"

Liu Chaoyuan walked out of the shop and was surprised to find that the sound of firecrackers came from the Jindan Hall next door, and there were many monks around the door.

Parting the crowd, I saw a big red paper pasted on the door of the store, writing: The shop is closed, the whole site is cleared at a low price, and it is only sold for three days, with a minimum of 5% off!

Liu Chaoyuan's eyes lit up, and he gloated and said to the guy next to him: "I'll just say, it's not possible to attract guests by low prices." ”

"If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a loss in front of you, and now you will go out of business!"

glanced into the store, and saw that Zhao Lin and a few guys were busy greeting customers, so they walked in.

"Little friend, what's going on? Isn't the store opening well, why is it closing? ”

Liu Chaoyuan sneered as soon as he came up, and even the title changed from Zhao's shopkeeper to Xiaoyou.

Zhao Lin sighed and said: "The store is not well managed, which makes the shopkeeper Liu smile." ”

Liu Chaoyuan twisted his beard and smiled, "The way of management, only by standing firmly, will you walk steadily, and you can't do it for long by relying on opportunism." ”

Zhao Lin responded: "What Liu's predecessors taught is that the younger generations must keep it in mind. ”

Liu Chaoyuan felt comfortable and glanced at the store, "By the way, the store is closed, have you figured out what to do in the future?" ”

Zhao Lin shook his head: "I haven't thought about it for the time being, does Shopkeeper Liu have a way?" ”

Liu Chaoyuan said: "I can't talk about the door, if you don't dislike it, you can come to the old man's shop to be a buddy." Although you don't know how to operate, you can still greet guests, serve tea and water. ”

Zhao Lin was a little embarrassed, "The juniors want to go back to report on their work first, can you allow it to be discussed later?" Thank you in advance. ”

"Then you think about it slowly."

Liu Chaoyuan waved his hand and left Jindan Hall. (End of chapter)
