Chapter 346 Industry Rules

When I first came to the shore of the Sea of ​​Bitterness, I thought that the Underworld City was just a small island, but when I got closer, I found that the Underworld City was a little too big.

The city wall is about ten feet high, spanning from east to west, with no end visible. The city wall is not built of earth and stone, but is made of human remains. The human remains seem to be not dead yet, and they are squirming and moaning silently, which is creepy.

The city gate was made of a ferocious and huge animal head. You had to pass through the beast's mouth when entering or leaving the city. The beast's head didn't seem to be dead, and it stared at the passing ghosts with its green eyes.

But Zhang Ye is also a ghost, so there is no need to be afraid.

Tianlang's war boat docked at the port, and he said to Zhang Ye: "My dear benefactor, I have to return to the Rakshasa military camp to resume my duties first. Why don't I take you around the city with Xiao Tao? I'll hold a banquet for you later to wash away the dust." ”

It was hard to refuse the hospitality, so Zhang Ye had no choice but to agree.

Xiaotao was very happy when she heard that she could go shopping with Zhang Ye. She immediately took Zhang Ye's arm and jumped into the underworld city: "Brother Zhang Ye, underworld city is similar to the mortal city. Business is prosperous. Do you think Where should we go first?”

Zhang Ye thought he would take a casual look first to understand the customs and customs in Ming City.

The streets were full of shadows, and Zhang Ye discovered that the jugglers actually tore off their heads and used them as balls to kick; those selling barbecue were actually grilling freshly cut human flesh; and those selling candied haws, if you took a closer look, they were all covered with bloody eyeballs. …

Zhang Ye suddenly felt uncomfortable. Although he had become a ghost, his humanity had not disappeared, so he said: "Xiao Tao, if there is any store that sells weapons, take me to see it."

Xiao Tao understood that Zhang Ye was a master blacksmith and was naturally interested in weapons of war, so she immediately led Zhang Ye towards another ghost street.

During this period, Zhang Ye also asked Xiao Tao about information about the underworld weapons. Xiao Tao said that underworld weapons are not divided into different levels like in the world of cultivation. They are all called underworld weapons, but their power is different.

Zhang Ye thought to himself, it seems that the development of weapons in the underworld is still at a very ignorant stage, and he doesn't know whether the business is good or not.

Soon, Xiao Tao took Zhang Ye to a ghost street, which can be called a ghost street.

On both sides of the street, there are shops similar to blacksmith shops, with a variety of utensils hung in the shops. The shopkeepers and craftsmen are opening furnaces at the door, banging utensils, and shouting.

It can be said that there is nothing you can’t think of, but nothing you can’t buy.

Zhang Ye took a quick look around and roughly understood some of the prices of the underworld weapons, but he was extremely troubled.

There is no uniform standard in this underworld artifact market. Shopkeepers charge endless prices based on the surface quality of the underworld artifacts, while buyers haggle over prices. This makes Zhang Ye, a fixed price master, extremely uncomfortable to watch.

For example, there was a shop owner who was selling an extremely ordinary underworld artifact. He started to brag about Fuxi's urinal, and then said: "The original price is eight thousand taels, and the promotion is six thousand taels. Seeing as you are a little girl, five Take the two silver coins!"

This situation happened every time, and Zhang Ye couldn't laugh or cry.

"Brother Zhang Ye, do you want to open a blacksmith shop in Ming City?" Xiao Tao was smart and guessed what Zhang Ye was thinking.

"Yeah, but I don't have a clue now." Zhang Ye is telling the truth. The customs here are different. Good things and bad things are mixed with ordinary ghost coins, ghost stones, and ghost stones for sale. If Zhang Ye operates according to the previous way, he will definitely Jump on the street.

So Zhang Ye has no clue.

Xiao Tao thought for a while: "Brother Zhang Ye is so powerful that he can even compare to those great Shuras. Why don't you join the Sirius Mercenary Group? I recommend you to be the leader, and we can make a lot of money from him..."

Zhang Ye stopped Xiao Tao: "Isn't the leader your brother?"

"Hmph, my brother is not worthy of carrying Zhang Ye's shoes..." Xiao Tao's eyes were full of stars.

Zhang Ye smiled, your brother would probably vomit blood if he heard this.

However, Zhang Yezhi is no longer fighting, but making money. He is enough to build those ghost weapons that Shura can use. As long as his reputation is established, the money will definitely come quickly.

Zhang Ye declined politely, and then said: "If the Sirius Mercenary Group encounters any trouble in the future, just come to me."

Xiao Tao was slightly disappointed, but she became happy again thinking that she could see Zhang Ye at any time.

"I almost forgot. My brother said that there will be a banquet at Wangxiang Building to welcome the wind. It's almost time. Let's go there." Xiao Tao said.

Zhang Ye thought of the food he had seen before and was frightened for a while: "Is it human flesh and eyeballs?"

Xiao Tao chuckled: "Don't worry, Wangxianglou cooks normal food, but I don't know if brother Zhang Ye can get used to it."

Zhang Ye was indeed a little hungry. He didn't expect to be hungry even if he was a ghost, but as long as it was normal food, he and Xiao Tao immediately went to the Wangxiang Tower.

The food is normal food. There are large bowls of chicken, duck, fish, and delicacies from the mountains and seas. However, it is not normal food. Just smelling it will eliminate your hunger. It is really weird.

This is really the truth when people eat vegetables and rice, and the ghosts and spirits are strong.

When those delicious dishes lose their essence and wither into sand. When a fine wine loses its essence, it becomes a glass of water.

One member of the mercenary group found it unsatisfying, so he took out a stick of incense, chewed it, and asked Zhang Ye if he would chew it.

Zhang Ye didn't feel comfortable with this bizarre underworld, so he had to decline.

"My dear friend, Xiao Tao told me that you want to open a blacksmith shop in the underworld. We can't help you much, so we bought a shop for you. Please accept it." Sirius took out a house deed and key. , give it to Zhang Ye.

Zhang Ye glanced at Xiaotao and Tianlang, and was moved. He did not pretend to refuse, after all, he was penniless now.

Zhang Ye took the house deed, thanked him, and said, "If you're interested, I'll wait until the blacksmith shop opens later to get a high-end magical weapon."

Zhang Ye was never stingy with his friends and treated them with courtesy.

The Tianlang mercenary group knew Zhang Ye's abilities. Xiao Tao's sword was made by Zhang Ye. They killed the soul-devouring beasts with one sword at a time, and they were invincible.

Although it cost a lot of money to buy the shop, Zhang Ye's return gift far exceeded the price of the shop, and everyone was not pretentious and cheered.

Zhang Ye likes the Tianlang Mercenary Group for this reason. He has a straightforward personality and is not as pretentious as others.

After eating some more wine, Xiao Tao's face turned red beyond words, and she kept pouring it on Zhang Ye, not knowing whether it was intentional or not.

Sirius became very jealous and ordered people to send Xiao Tao back. Xiao Tao woke up suddenly and grabbed Zhang Ye's arm, refusing to leave.

Everyone laughed, and the banquet was finally over.

There is no day or night in the underworld, but Tianlang invited Zhang Ye to rest in their residence. Zhang Ye met an old friend in a foreign country and felt that he had already relaxed a lot and could not delay any longer. He just remembered Tianlang's address, said goodbye and left to decorate the blacksmith shop.

Xiao Tao said she wanted to help, but as the Tianlang mercenary group was a Rakshasa army, it was impossible for them to be without affairs. Zhang Ye refused and left alone.

In fact, Zhang Ye had another motive for refusing Xiao Tao's help. He understood Xiao Tao's feelings for him, but he only regarded Xiao Tao as a cute and smart sister, and kept a distance to prevent the situation from getting out of hand.

According to the address on the property deed, Zhang Ye came to Mingqi Yilong. The location of this shop was neither too good nor too bad. The Sirius Mercenary Group must have done their best.

The aroma of wine is not afraid of the deep alley, but Zhang Ye is confident that he can run it well.

After unlocking the door, he pushed the door open and entered. This shop used to make underworld weapons, and many of the tools were there, which saved Zhang Ye a lot of effort.

Zhang Ye found a wooden board, repaired it and made it into a sign. Although it was a little shabby, it still had the style of a master.

Zhang Ye had just put up the signboard of the Magical Blacksmith Shop. When he turned around, many dead ghosts stared at Zhang Ye. Zhang Ye thought that he was also a ghost, so he managed to calm down.

"Every shopkeeper, what's important?" Zhang Ye recognized them as the shopkeepers of Mingqi's one-stop shop and raised his hands.

But the shopkeepers were not so polite and shouted: "Are you going to be in the underworld artifact business? Why are you so ignorant of the rules!"

"Tear it down! Tear it down!"

The ghosts shouted to tear down Zhang Ye's sign. Zhang Ye shook his sleeves, and the air wave forced the ghosts back. The ghosts were frightened. Such a powerful evil ghost did not dare to act rashly again.

Zhang Ye said: "I am new here, so if I have any inconsiderations, please forgive me, but if you want to tear down my brand, you can give it a try!"

Zhang Ye showed his hand before, which calmed the ghosts, but a shopkeeper said: "Okay, I'm not afraid to tell you, the rules of Mingqi one-stop, any new store opening must have the consent of our thirty-three stores."

Each business has its own rules. Zhang Ye pondered for a moment and asked: "Then how can we get the consent of thirty-three stores?"

Many shopkeepers whispered for a while, and finally said: "We don't agree."

Zhang Ye smiled. He stretched out his hand and took the leading shopkeeper in his hand. He pinched the shopkeeper's tongue and dragged it to the ground. Zhang Ye still smiled and said: "Are you fucking kidding me?"

The other shopkeepers did not dare to speak and took two steps back. The shopkeeper who was choked by Zhang Ye and foaming at the mouth repeatedly begged for mercy: "Hero, forgive me, we are just teasing you. In fact, it is easy to open a shop. You only need to start from Challenge the streets all the way to the end of the street to compete in forging skills. If you beat one, you can get the same artifact from that store. After the challenge is over, if you get more than half of the artifacts, you can open the store! "

Zhang Ye didn't know if everyone was making things difficult, but he decided to follow this rule, not only to avoid future troubles, but also to take this opportunity to build a certain reputation.

"Okay, let's go back to our respective shops first, and wait for me to challenge them one by one." Zhang Ye let go of the shopkeeper in his hand, and the shopkeeper picked up the tongue on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, then ran back in a flash.

The other shopkeepers knew that Zhang Ye was a good fighter, but when it came to forging, who was afraid of whom? They immediately returned to their respective shops and waited for Zhang Ye to come.

Zhang Ye closed the shop door again and prepared to go for a discussion. Several little ghosts dressed as shop waiters beat gongs and drums and ran around the nearby streets. There were ghosts and ghosts, and there was a bustle of ghosts and ghosts, all watching the excitement.

Zhang Ye understood there were three reasons why they did this.

First, under the witness of so many people, if you are not qualified, you will definitely have no face to open a store and become a joke.

Second, take advantage of this opportunity to build the reputation of each store, attract customers, and increase sales.

Third, there seems to be no third.

With all the ghosts watching, Zhang Ye walked towards the first ghost shop on the street.
