(Make up for October, 5,300 monthly tickets plus more chapters)
Miao Yi asked curiously: "Why are you paying attention to me?"
"Drink tea! The best Fengwei tea, try it." Mother Xu pushed the teacup in front of Miao Yi and said with a smile: "I have seen countless people in my line of work, and I have seen many people from all walks of life. I can tell at a glance that the layman is different from the others in the Zhengqi Sect. There is a sense of majesty in his gestures. This inadvertent aura is not something that can be pretended. It is the nobleness that has been cultivated for a long time. I later asked your sect, and sure enough, the layman joined the Zhengqi Sect halfway through, and he is not a disciple of the Zhengqi Sect. This further confirms my guess."
Miao Yi was a little stunned, and then laughed: "Mother Xu also has times when she makes mistakes. I really don't know what nobleness is. Wang There is a bit of the Eight Qi. "
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Mother Xu just smiled faintly, "Then just treat it as my mistake. Let's talk business, what are you doing here?"
"The tea is good!" Miao Yi put down the teacup, "Nothing, just visiting the neighbors, I have never seen such an occasion opened by Mother Xu, I want to broaden my horizons and see what is going on inside, you won't be unwelcome, right?"
"It's not that I'm unwelcome, I really can't let outsiders come in and wander around in my music hall." Mother Xu then added, "A group of women are practicing singing and dancing, some of them don't wear much, it's not convenient for outsiders to watch casually, please understand, don't be surprised."
Miao Yi nodded, since others said so, he didn't force it, not to mention that he was just here to wander around, drank a cup of tea, chatted a few words and then left.
Before leaving, he did not forget to ask: "Mother Xu, don't forget to come to the wedding for our shop opening!"
Mother Xu nodded and smiled: "Since you asked, and we are neighbors, we should ask for a glass of wedding wine."
Miao Yi seemed to be joking: "Remember to give a generous gift."
He didn't believe that he had asked. How could they not give gifts? They should be generous to build such a tall building.
Mother Xu was stunned, and then rolled her eyes. "Singing and dancing don't make much money, don't complain about it when the time comes."
Miao Yi laughed: "Just kidding. Just kidding, it's good to show your kindness." After saying that, he bowed and said goodbye.
After leaving Tianxiang Tower and passing by the door of Zhengqimen Shop, Master Miao walked into the "Dingyuan Escort Company" again.
The so-called escort company is to protect the safety and property of the employer, or escort.
As soon as he entered the door, the receptionist walked over quickly, smiling and said: "Dear guest..."
Found that it was the person next door who claimed to have set fire to their escort company, he immediately stopped smiling. Miao Yi smiled and nodded. "Is Shopkeeper Tu here?"
He asked knowingly, but his eyes had already caught sight of Shopkeeper Tu Rensheng, who was sitting cross-legged behind the bead curtain in the side hall.
When he heard someone calling, Shopkeeper Tu quickly stopped practicing and got off the bed, pushed aside the bead curtain and walked out. He smiled, but when he saw Miao Yi, his smile immediately disappeared, and he snorted coldly, "Why are you here?"
Miao Yi was good-tempered, and he had to pretend to be good-tempered just for the gift. He smiled and said, "You open the door to do business. Why are you unhappy when a guest comes?"
Tu Rensheng looked like he was keeping people at a distance, "What kind of business can you have? Do you really want to set fire to our escort company?"
Miao Yi said, "How do you know there is no business? Our shop is right next to yours. Maybe there will be goods for your escort company to escort someday. We are neighbors, and when there is business, we must take care of our neighbors first. Shopkeeper Tu, do you think what I said makes sense?"
Shopkeeper Tu did not comment, but tilted his head and ordered, "Serve tea!" He extended his hand and invited Miao Yi to sit aside.
The two sat down across the coffee table. After the tea was served, Miao Yi said cheerfully, "I was not careful with my words last time. Please forgive me if I offended you."
"Your leader has already come to apologize. Let's forget about the past." Hearing that Miao Yi apologized first, Shopkeeper Tu seemed to be very generous and didn't care. He stretched out his hand and made a gesture of using tea. After taking a sip of the tea, he asked, "What are you going to sell in your shop?"
Miao Yi was afraid that he would be kicked out if he told others about the grocery store. He himself didn't know what the grocery store could have that was worth spending a lot of money to hire a escort company to escort it. He pretended to be surprised and said, "Didn't the leader tell Shopkeeper Tu about it?"
"I didn't ask at the time." Shopkeeper Tu was telling the truth. At the time, there was a conflict, so he didn't ask so many questions. Later, because of the conflict, he didn't dare to ask at the door.
"Since the headmaster didn't say anything, I won't say anything." Miao Yi also covered up with a teacup, and then asked: "What kind of escorts does your escort company escort?"
Manager Tu counted on his fingers and said: "People, money, materials and other things, as long as they don't violate the heavenly rules, our escort company can escort them."
The cultivation world in the small world doesn't have so many tricks. The area is too small and the space is limited, so it can't breed the classified businesses like the big world. Miao Yi came here to understand it, so he naturally asked: "Can it be delivered to any place?"
"This..." Manager Tu hesitated. At once, the escort business relies on reputation, and it is not easy to cheat in this business. He shook his head slightly and said: "We are a small escort business with limited strength. Some places are not easy to go to. Places with too high risks are generally only convenient for those big escort businesses. But for ordinary escorts, it is still cost-effective to find our escort business. Big escort businesses naturally have big escort business prices. Don’t you think so?"
"Yeah! That makes sense!" Miao Yi nodded.
After understanding the market situation of the escort business, Miao Yi mentioned again before leaving: "Manager Tu, neighbors, don’t forget to come to the wedding when our shop opens!"
Shopkeeper Tu stood up to see them off and nodded, "Since you've invited me, I'll naturally be there to congratulate you."
Miao Yi joked again, "Remember to give me a generous gift."
Shopkeeper Tu was stunned for a moment, and said with a forced smile, "I'll definitely send my sincere thanks."
After leaving the escort company, Miao Yi looked around. He didn't miss the two shops in front and behind Zhengqimen. He went in and sat for a while under the guise of Zhengqimen's shop. Inviting people to a wedding banquet was inevitable, and the most important thing was to remind them to send gifts.
These were just things he did for Zhengqimen. Don't forget where he came from. He was born into a business family, so he naturally had his own business experience. Otherwise, why would he like the boss lady? They were a perfect match! He felt that the way Zhengqimen was doing business by buying goods without much attention was a bit inappropriate. What kind of business would they have if they didn't have some popularity after opening.
Yu Ling Zhenren had already said that if the shop made a loss, it would be Zhengqimen's. If it made a profit, Miao Yi would get 20% of the net profit. The reason was naturally because the shop was acquired thanks to Miao Yi, so it would be unreasonable if he didn't show some appreciation. For this reason, he had to bring some snacks along.
Of course, the real purpose was that he had just arrived and wanted to take the opportunity to get to know more people, sit down and talk under the guise of a shop, and at the same time bring some popularity to the opening of Zhengqi Sect.
After a few days, he visited dozens of shops around the Zhengqi Sect shop under the guise of Zhengqi Sect. It was hard for those shops not to be familiar with him if he was willing to use his brain to do something.
Master Miao did not go too far. He didn't care about the shops that were too far away. He didn't have the energy to attack such things.
That day, he went to Tianxianglou next door to drink a cup of tea, asked where the gold and silver shuttles were sold, and said goodbye and went straight to the Xingyun Sect's shop.
The location of the Xingyun Sect's shop was really good. It was on a busy road next to the main street, covering a large area, and the backyard was decorated with pavilions and towers. It was not comparable to Zhengqi Sect at all. There is no way, who told them that the Xingyun Sect is one of the top 100 sects in the entire world, and the Zhengqi Sect may not even be in the top 10,000.
The most important thing is that they are doing a unique business. Only they can refine the golden shuttle and silver shuttle that can cross the star gate. It is said that they also refine a kind of "star map" for sale. As long as you buy a star map, you can master the passages between the currently known complex worlds.
As soon as you enter the Xingyun Sect's shop, a waiter immediately greeted you and asked what you needed.
"Golden shuttle, silver shuttle." Miao Yi went straight to the point. This was the main purpose of his trip to the big world. He had been planning for a long time. If he wanted to attack "Xingyuan", he couldn't do without this thing.
"Please come this way!" The waiter immediately invited him to the crystal display cabinet on the side, and saw that it was full of golden shuttles and silver shuttles. The waiter introduced: "The gold shuttle can protect ten people through the star gate at a time, and one shuttle costs one thousand red crystals; the silver shuttle can only escort one person through the star gate at a time, and one shuttle costs one hundred red crystals."
After all, the resources of the small world are limited. There are two more advanced currencies used by the monks in the big world, purple crystal and red crystal. One purple crystal can be exchanged for one hundred gold crystals, and one red crystal can be exchanged for one hundred purple crystals, which means that one red crystal is equal to ten thousand gold crystals.
One red crystal is equivalent to one hundred million white crystals!
It means that one gold shuttle costs ten million gold crystals, and one silver shuttle also costs one million gold crystals. He also asked someone to understand the price clearly before coming. These are all fixed standard prices, and there is no bargaining.
"Two gold shuttles, two silver shuttles." After counting and paying, Miao Yi didn't have any purple crystals or red crystals. He first poured out the white crystals and black crystals in his hand, and then settled the bill with gold crystals, letting the other party count slowly.
The waiter was a little dumbfounded, and finally the money and goods were settled.
The waiter had already sent Miao Yi to the door. Miao Yi thought about it and couldn't help but turned back and asked, "Do you have star maps for sale here?"
"Of course, there are other places in the Tianjie of each interface except our Xingyun Sect that sells them."
"Bring one out for me to see." Miao Yi replied, thinking, even if I can't afford it, I still have to see what it looks like.
The waiter looked him up and down and tried to remind him, "A star map costs 10 million red crystals." The implication was, can you afford it?
Miao Yi immediately scolded, "You look down on people, how do you know I can't afford it?"
This startled the shopkeeper sitting in the hall. After asking what was going on, he saw Miao Yi's demeanor and immediately scolded the waiter. Then he personally extended his hand and invited him, "Sorry for the malice, please come this way!"
He came to a tripod, on which was a purple metal sphere as big as a basin, with astrological patterns engraved on it.
"Is this the star map?" Miao Yi asked.
Under the guidance of the shopkeeper, Miao Yi stretched out his hand and pressed on the star map. As soon as he cast a spell, he immediately saw the illusion of the vast starry sky in the sphere. (To be continued)
