Chapter 592: Opening Ji
Yongzhou City, there are more pearl buildings. It is said to be a building, but it is actually a large yard. It's just that in the courtyard, there are many pavilions. This is not only magnificent, but also said to have a deep background, because its location is just behind the city lord's mansion. It is said that the lord of the city, feeling that the stone platform with the longevity monument is so empty, it is a pity, so he gave it to someone through what "investment attraction" and repaired this building.
In the middle of the way, some people protested, saying that ordinary people should worship the stone tablet here and obtain cultivation. As a result, Wuxu asked them to worship around the stele for three days and three nights, but no miracles appeared on the stele. These ordinary people, this is the disappointment that dissipates. Someone else begged to keep the stele, but Wuxu agreed.
The owner of this building is extremely mysterious, and I don't know whether it is the Great Zhou Dynasty or a powerful person in the court, or one of the six major sects. I only know that there is a female shopkeeper in this building, who is a true spiritual monk, but it is also very mysterious, except for the day of the opening, she basically does not appear again. Now the only remaining heads of the three major families in Yongzhou, as well as the three envoys of the Demon Domain, have all asked Wuxu in various ways, but they have all been prevaricated by Wuxu, and only use obscure words to ensure that this Zhulou will not interfere in the business related to the Demon Domain and the Great Peripheral Trade.
At the beginning, there were also those who came to test the depths. But the general characters were all slashed out by the female shopkeeper with a sword. Those who didn't die were taken into custody by the sergeants of the City Lord's Mansion who came in a hurry. Within a few days, the entire Yongzhou City knew that it was not simple to return the pearl building, so don't mess around. There are also those who are at stake, but after being forced back by the fierce sword light, it is not something that the city lord's mansion sergeant can capture. They flew away, but they flew away and were never heard from again, and disappeared.
This is also a pearl building, the door is always open, allowing people to enter and exit. Even if someone is in a hurry and wants to be respectful, he can also run in with his stomach covered without looking at the doorman's eyes. Once inside, you can also move around as you like. Front yard only, of course. Returning the pearl building, divided into the front yard, the middle yard, the back yard. The front yard is a place for sales, the middle yard is a place for eating and drinking, and the back yard is a place for lodging. In the front yard, there are four attics, one sells exercises, one sells spiritual resources, and one sells news, and the other is a hodgepodge, which is Wuxu's proposal, which is to classify some ordinary and common objects for monks and even ordinary people to buy, to put it bluntly, it is a convenience store. Wu Xuan also proposed that some places be vacated and rent-free for the first three years to attract some forces to do business in the Huanzhu Building. This is the idea of the comprehensive business body that Wuxu knew in his previous life.
Wuxu also purchased a batch of pearls, and personally used the mandala Dharma realm to mark the pearl return building, so as to develop members. Those who join the club can enjoy a number of preferential treatment if they hold this pearl. Not only that, all member consumption is recorded and exchanged for points, and points can be exchanged for some items in accordance with regulations.
In this way, Wuxu copied all the shopping mall marketing methods he could think of in his previous life. This heaven and earth, although it is said to be a monk's world, but in terms of marketing methods, it is very simple, and it cannot be compared at all.
As a result, Huanzhulou gradually gained a firm foothold, opened up the situation, and business was booming. But it is the other family, one thing and the other, and the business is more or less fading. Among them, the most influential are the only three remaining families.
These three families, in addition to the trade with the Demon Domain, originally controlled many businesses in Yongzhou City. But as soon as the Pearl House came out, the three of them couldn't do this part. Although they have also copied and copied some marketing methods, the advantages of commercial complexes cannot be ignored. And this, they want to learn and do, but they can't learn and do. Because their original shops were scattered. This place, that piece. If you can buy it at the same time in the Huanzhu Building, if you buy it from them, you must first go east of the city and then north of the city. How does this compete?
Therefore, the heads of the three major families began to acquire and merge stores in the west of the city. After all, they have a deep foundation, and after using various means, they also build a commercial complex like Huanzhu Building, called "Wanshi Daji", which also has a membership system, and gives many discounts that Huanzhu Lou does not have.
This is normal business competition. Wuxu became interested for a while, and persuaded Tong Yuchun, who wanted to secretly make a move, "Let's wait and see what happens." ”
"When we are interrupted, we will suffer from it. If you want to grow, these people are all obstacles. Tong Yuchun smiled brightly, "You are still so idealistic and so disciplined. But I don't know, we are monks, how can the dispute between monks be like this?"
Wuxu lowered his head and muttered, "Daoyou's thoughts are those thoughts of the Xuan Overhaul. We little people always have to follow some rules when doing things. ”
Seeing this, Tong Yuchun didn't put out some thoughts for a while, and only said, "I came out this time, I originally received the mission of the sect, and I have been staying in Yongzhou for many days, and I will leave for Canghai Academy tomorrow, and I will ask you to bother more when I return to the Pearl Tower." ”
Canghai Academy is a Confucian sect, a few days ago, two disciples of Ziyang Palace traveled to Canghai Academy, but disappeared for no reason. Tong Yuchun went to investigate the matter.
Wuxu smiled bitterly, "When things are done, I know that there are thousands of things." I, and you and Qingtian Daoyou are the same, and it is impossible to have too much time and energy to focus on the daily operation of Huanzhu Tower. Even Li Daoyou only agreed to come forward to take charge temporarily. Many follow-up things, I'm afraid they can only fall on Fa Feng and the Su Ji you brought. ”
As soon as the building opened, it required a lot of manpower. Li Mingshan, the female shopkeeper who came forward to do the main thing. Those who do the most specific things are also easy to find. But the middle-level ones, who can be in charge of their own share, must have good cultivation and be trustworthy. But Zhang Cuilu and others, except for Nafa Peak, that is, He Qifeng, don't like these mundane affairs. Tong Yuchun brought a man named Su Ji. But there is still a shortage of manpower.
It's true. In addition, Wuxu's words have another meaning. Since the three of them rebuilt the Huanzhu Tower in this outer heaven, Liu Qingtian and Liu Bowen should naturally send someone out.
Tong Yuchun, naturally understood, and also said in a deep voice, "Before I left, I also mentioned this matter, Senior Brother Qingtian only said for a while, naturally someone came to preside over the news trading affairs. After that, the conversation changed, "Since you let the Yongzhou City family join forces to fight with us, should you be sure to win?"
This time the Pearl Tower was rebuilt, Tong Yuchun and Liu Qingtian contributed the most. Duo Dao Xuan was secretly surprised, I don't know where they got so many spiritual resources, and they actually got more than they got from the Demon Domain Gambling City Duobao Pavilion. Therefore, naturally, Tong Yuchun and Liu Qingtian care more about when and how much Huanzhulou will make a profit.
Wuxu frowned slightly, and then unfolded again. But he didn't want to promise anything to Tong Yuchun.
Tong Yuchun, no more, shook the dust, and walked out of the quiet room.
This night is the night of the full moon. The newly opened "Everything Gathering" held a garden lantern festival. A lantern, in different shapes, sparkling, rising, brilliant, illuminating most of Yongzhou City as if it were day.
There are also many feminists with charming appearances, either flying with lamps, or shuttling back and forth, with graceful demeanor, just like the Victoria's Secret show that Wuxu saw in his previous life.
There was a lot of food, a lot of juggling, and it was very lively.
"Senior brother, they are too shameless and arrogant! They even imitate us everywhere and return to the Pearl Tower!" He Qifeng didn't know when, standing behind Wuxu, "According to my temper, I smashed him directly!"
Wuxu glanced down at He Qifeng, "Today, if you can go and smash them." On other days, others can come and smash us. ”
"What are you afraid of! We monks are originally respected for their strength, but other than that, they are just some false tricks. He Qifeng, a trace of disdain flashed in the corner of his eye.
He Qifeng is now speaking more and more casually in front of Wuxu, and even more and more wantonly. But for some reason, Wuxu didn't seem to care or be annoyed.
"There is strength, but it also needs to operate. Even if it is a major repair, it is impossible to really act unscrupulously. Wu Xuan replied lightly, then turned around, and looked behind He Qifeng, the pale-faced middle-aged man asked with a smile, "Su Daoyou, do you think so?"
This middle-aged man, who was standing faintly in a corner of the attic, saw Wuxu turning back to ask, so he had to take a step forward and completely expose his body to the faint light. Seeing him, he respectfully made a gift to Wuxu that was quite similar to that of a Confucian disciple, and replied in a deep voice, "Although one force will reduce ten meetings, if there is no absolute advantage, this force naturally needs some other assistance. What's more, there are some things that you can't achieve by life and death. This is the reason why the adults and the old man run this pearl building. ”
Wu Xuan looked at the middle-aged man in a long robe in front of him with a smile, "On Lushan Mountain in the world, it is you who will take care of the Pearl Tower." Now, I'm afraid that this is still a pearl building, and you still have to take care of it. “
The middle-aged man bowed down again, "How dare Su Ji." It's just that he has a life and does a little bit of his part. “
"Su Daoyou, you're too modest. At the beginning, on Lushan Mountain in the world, the Pearl Tower was well organized by Su Daoyou. Wuxu waved his hand slightly, and then changed his words, "Now that it's outside the sky, why doesn't Su Daoyou have a Dao number?"
Buddhism has a Dharma number, Taoism has a Taoist number, Confucianism has a son, and demon cultivators and demon cultivators also have a number.
Su Ji, who came with Xuanjizi Tong Yuchun, no matter what happened before, and no matter how he was dressed up at the moment, but Tong Yuchun is now a person in the Ziyang Palace of the Daomen, and Wuxu asked him if he had a Taoist number. It's a concern, it's a respect. Naturally, it is also an inquiry. Because, generally speaking, from the path number of a monk, you can more or less see the clues to which his practice belongs. For example, Wuxu, generally speaking, is mostly a Buddhist or Taoist monk.
But Su Ji's face remained unchanged, still pale, dressed in a long robe, swaying slightly in the wind, faintly revealing his thin and slender figure.
"Lord Hui, Su Ji was originally a down-and-out scholar in the world, and he went to heaven with his master, and he never entered any sect, so naturally there is no official Taoist name. Sometimes, though, it's for convenience. There was once a trespass, and he claimed to be a pearl man. “
Su Ji said with sincerity and fear, Wu Xu's right hand stretched out, and a silence bead was suspended in the palm of his hand, sometimes disappearing like a star, and sometimes turning into a white bone short sword.
"Xuanzhu Ling?!" Su Ji said softly, but his face was condensed. He had met Xuanjizi a few times.
"That's it!" Wuxu smiled slightly, "At the beginning, the three of us each had one. Now I will give you this one. ”
Su Ji was even more frightened, raised his head and looked at Wuxu, and He Qifeng with an uncertain expression on the side, "This is a token of the three seniors, how can the younger generation be able to do so?"
Wuxu sighed, "In the future, you still have to take care of this pearl building wholeheartedly, if you don't accept it, I can't rest assured." ”
Su Ji was silent for a long time, and finally accepted the Xuanzhu Order.
After Su Ji retreated, Wu looked at He Qifeng with a smile, "Do you really look at this little pearl building?"
He Qifeng, as if he had expected Wuxu to ask this question, slowly put down his hands that were closed in front of his chest, and looked at Wuxu, "The old man expected that you had already seen some clues, but I didn't expect you to dare to take the initiative to say it." ”
As he spoke, his breath changed suddenly, and he stood there like an abyss and an unfathomable depth. Wuxu felt a kind of coercion in the face of such a heavenly demon. Fortunately, in an instant, the aura disappeared without a trace.
"It's always good to take the initiative, not to mention that after so long, the little monk has never felt the malice or killing intent of his predecessors. Wuxu clasped his palms on his chest, neither humble nor arrogant, neither advancing nor retreating, standing there fixedly, "Haven't asked for advice from your predecessors?"
"The old man is the head of the Yin and Yang Sect, as for the name, you little doll is not qualified to know. "What a peak", extremely proud.
"Yin-Yang Sect?Sure enough!The Yin-Yang Sect of the Nether Star!" Wu Xuan suddenly asked, "How is the senior's injury going?"
"Killing you is just a snap of a finger!" "He Qifeng", his eyes flashed, one black and one white, like a starlight reflection shining around. The surrounding environment changed instantly, those lights at night, those voices and insects... It's all gone, and there's nothing left of it.
"Amitabha!" Wu Xuan closed his hands on his chest, and the Dharma Realm appeared behind him, "The little monk is now successful in enlightening the stars, if it is transmitted in the Dharma Realm, under the operation of the Xuanyin Star Zhou Tian Xingchen Great Array, I am afraid that the seniors will also have a lot of trouble." ”
"If it weren't for the law realm fusion that accompanied you at the beginning, how could you still make a move in the old man's yin and yang Xuan realm at this moment. "He Qifeng" snorted coldly, and suddenly smiled, "You are helpless in Xuanyin Star, it is better to vote for my Yin Yang Sect and worship under the old man's seat." “
"Amitabha!" Wuxu shook his head, "The juniors only want to be with the seniors"
"Cooperation?" and "He Qifeng" seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, and his tone was full of sarcasm.
Wuxu's hand handprints turned, and his figure gradually changed, revealing a hazy statue of Liuguanyin.
"Nine-leaf green lotus spiritual fire, nebula bamboo. "He Qifeng" finally showed a hint of discoloration on his face.
In a distant attic, Sugi sat quietly in a chair. The Xuanzhu also floated silently in the air no more than a foot in front of him. At the beginning, Wuxu took out three Silence Beads, and then cast spells with Tong Yuchun and Liu Bowen to bless, making this bead quite useful, and it was the aura emitted by this bead that made Su Ji a little afraid and a little excited. Because of this, Su Ji did not start refining this bead.
"But from a distance, you can't play with it. Su Ji stared for a while, said softly, and then took out a jade box and carefully put it away. Then, he closed his eyes and calmed down.
Where Wuxu and He Qifeng are located, there are many subtle breaths coming from time to time. Suji remained motionless, as if he didn't notice it at all. It wasn't until a long time later that Wuxu and He Qifeng talked and laughed, and then gradually moved away. Su Ji opened his eyes, walked out of the small building, and stood quietly in a corner, leaning on the railing, looking intently at the lively scene of the "Great Collection of Everything" opposite.
