Beiyin Great Sage Chapter 443

  Chapter 443 Internal and external troubles

  Time is like a fleeting moment, fleeting.

  Two years passed.

   For the vast majority of people, the difficult days have passed, and those who have not survived have turned into ice and dry bones.

  According to the rough statistics of the Ghost Controlling Sect, since the Shard World fell into the Ruin Realm, in just over two years, three to four out of ten people died within the sphere of influence.

   That is to say.

   At least 700,000 people failed to survive!

   Among them, there are many ordinary ranks, but there are also black iron and silver that have died.

  As they gradually adapt to this world, most of the survivors have found a way to survive, at least not starving to death.

   The price of exotic animal meat dropped rapidly as a result.

  When the fluctuations are the most violent, the price is almost one day a day. Merchants who deal in exotic meat, if they can't handle the goods in time, they will fall on their hands in all likelihood.

   "I think back then, you could win a stall with only 2,000 silver and exotic animal meat, but now the price has more than tenfold."

  After two years of training, Qian Xiang's complexion became more rosy and full of energy. When talking about the events of the year, it is inevitable that the audio tape sighs:

   "Brother Hong was not there at the time, otherwise he would have been able to get a place. Now that the shop has already been owned, it may not be easy."

   "Junior Brother." Hong Chengtao pushed a heavy storage bag, and said in a muffled voice:

   "I know your ability. Back then, I was busy hunting strange beasts, and I did neglect business management. Fortunately, I had your help."

   "It's just a shop, how can it be difficult for you?"

   "Brother was joking." Qian Xiang weighed the storage bag with a smile on his face:

   "A few months before getting up, Zongmen proposed to expand the number of stores in the core area. If there are no exceptions, it will be finalized within a few years."

   "At least one hundred positions can be added this time, and I will definitely reserve them for senior brother!"

   "How many years?" Hong Chengtao frowned:

   "Junior brother, it's not too late to manage the matter. It's best to occupy the position before the current market expands. I'm afraid it will be too late in a few years."

   "Can you think of a way?"

  His voice paused slightly, and said:

   "Brother, I'm working for Uncle Yang now."

   "Uncle Yang." Qian Xiang's complexion moved slightly, his body slowly sat upright, and he muttered for a while:

   "It's not impossible."

   "Oh!" Hong Chengtao's eyes lit up:

   "I knew that my junior and junior had plenty of means."

   "There is a way, but it's not authentic." Qian Xiang shook his head:

   "The number of shops is determined by the suzerain himself, and there must be no mistakes, but if someone is not doing well and is willing to sell the shop, it is another story."

   "Change hands?" Hong Chengtao nodded:

   "Is there any store owner interested?"

   "There are a few of them. The business is not doing very well and they often complain, which makes people unhappy." Qian Xiang squinted, with a gloomy face:

   "If some means are used, they may not transfer it."

"it is good!"

  Hong Chengtao's voice mentioned:

   "If this happens, Hong will definitely thank you very much, Junior Brother, please!"

   "Brother, you and me, why are you being polite." Qian Xiang waved his hands repeatedly, and at the same time beckoned someone from outside the door:

   "Go ask Qiankai to come over, and I'll ask about the situation of Taobaoju."

"Yes."

   It should be the person who came, and he bowed and retreated.

   "My lord."

  Li He arched his hands:

   "The subordinate investigated according to your order. It is true that Ren Zhai is with Old Monster Weng. If what Miss Cai said is true..."

   "Then this person has ulterior motives!"

  Today, Zhou Jia rarely did not retreat. He changed into normal clothes and appeared in the back garden, picking up ice crystal flowers and admiring them in front of his eyes.

"Um."

  He nodded, with a calm tone:

   "Did Ren Zhai come to your door?"

"good."

   Li He sighed, nodded and said:

   "The three of us, brothers and sisters, were careless. We didn't realize that someone was following us. That Ren Saiteng found this place by following the tricks, so he already knew where the Lord is."

   "He doesn't give up." Zhou Jia shook his head, and looked sideways at Tianhe:

   "How is the situation at the store?"

   "Very bad!" Tianhe looked gloomy:

   "Qian Kai deliberately made it difficult for us, saying that selling the elixir with the spirit of gold and iron needs to re-adjust the price, and demanded to make up for the two years' owed money."

   "This guy is just a black iron, but he is extremely arrogant in front of us, I really want to cut him down with a sword!"

   It can be seen that she is really angry.

  The pretty face was filled with anger, and her eyes were full of evil spirits. If it wasn't for the ghost-controlling sect behind Qian Kai, she might have already secretly attacked her.

   "It's useless to kill Qian Kai." Li He said:

   "He is also acting according to orders. As long as Qian Xiang is still there, he will still be the supervisor in charge of the store. If Qian Kai leaves, money will come."

   "Besides, it's better for the members of the Ghost Control Sect to stay still."

   He sighed slightly.

  In the past two years, although he tried his best to support it, he failed to improve the situation of everyone, and the situation became worse and worse.

   It can be said that internal and external troubles are coming together.

  Internal worries.

  Qian Xiang has been persecuted repeatedly, the business of the store is difficult, and the profit has dropped again and again, and now he can only maintain Zhou Jia's normal cultivation.

  Foreign invasion.

  Formidable enemies are around, although old monster Weng didn't do anything, and Ren Zhai showed goodwill, but with Cai Yuzhen's reminder, how can he be careless?

"Owner."

   Tianhe's crisp sound:

   "I heard that someone wants to take over our shop, please entrust it to Qian Xiang, that's why he will do everything possible to target us."

   "It is estimated that they want us to hold on and give up the location of the store on their own initiative."

  The news is so, but she doesn't know whether it is true or not.

"Ah…"

  Zhou Jia said lightly:

   "After two years of retreat, I was happy and quiet. It seems that I have worked hard for you?"

   "Slaves dare not!"

   "The subordinates are incompetent and fail to share the master's worries."

   Tianhe and Li He bowed their heads together.

   "That's all."

   Zhou Jia waved:

   "This is the way of the world, the weak eat the strong. Since we have not shown our edge, it is only natural for people to feel bullied."

   "Li He!"

   "The subordinate is here."

   "Help me make an appointment with Ren Zhai, just say that Zhou misses his old friend, and find a time to get together."

   "..." Li He looked up, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then nodded:

"Yes."

   "Master." Tianhe hurriedly stepped forward:

   "Where is Qian Xiang?"

   "No hurry." Zhou Jia waved:

   "Meet Ren Zhai first."

"Yes."

  Hearing this, Tianhe could only suppress the aggrieved heart.

   A few days later.

   Restaurant.

   Zhou Jia sits in the chair and invites Ren Zhai.

   "Two years passed in a flash."

  Looking at the bustling crowd on the street, he said with emotion:

  “Time flies so fast, and the changes here are even more astonishing. Two years ago, there were few pedestrians, but now it is overcrowded.”

"It is said that…"

   "There will be more shops here."

   "Yes." Ren Zhai nodded:

   "Those who have opened stores in the past two years have been making a lot of money every day. I think Brother Zhou is doing the same. It's really enviable!"

   "I'm joking." Zhou Jia shook his head with a wry smile:

   "Brother Ren may not believe it, frowning, life is difficult, and there are villains making trouble, two years of busy work are just barely making ends meet."

  Ren Zhai chuckled.

  Although he didn't answer, his disbelief was clearly written all over his face.

   "The income is not much, so it doesn't matter." Zhou Jia said:

   "It's enough for Zhou to survive here, and he doesn't want to make enemies with others. It's best to live in peace and stability."

   "Brother Ren said yes?"

   "..." Ren Zhai's hands paused slightly, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes:

   "Brother Zhou said so."

   "Unfortunately, people can't help themselves in the world. Sometimes even if you want to live a stable life, other people may not tolerate you."

  Zhou Jia put down his wine glass, smiled and said nothing.

   "So, strength is the foundation." Ren Zhai turned around and looked seriously:

   "I know Brother Zhou is very powerful and has the ability to refine veterinary drugs. Just a while ago, a few colleagues and I discovered a lair of strange beasts. I wonder if Brother Zhou is interested in going there?"

   "This..." Zhou Jia showed hesitation:

   "Forget it."

"pity!"

  Ren Zhai looked regretful.

   After drinking for three rounds and cooking for five flavors, there was no further continuation of the food and drink. Ren Zhai tactfully got up and said goodbye, and walked into the boundless white snow.

   "My lord."

  Li He came closer and said in a low voice:

   "The surname Ren wants to lure you out. This time is just a test, and there will definitely be more in the future. I have seen many such things."

"Um."

  Zhou Jia nodded and sat still, but whether he tilted his head or shook his ears.

   Time passed by little by little.

   Li He moved his body, as if he wanted to ask for instructions on what to do next, but Tian He stretched out his hand and shook his head to signal:

   "Do not disturb the master."

disturb?

  Li He was taken aback.

   Isn't the Lord in a daze?
