Yu Xiaolong trembled with fright and complained: "Oh, Master, can you stop being startled every day?"
"That Black Tower... seems to be no small matter. It must be a shady thing! I can't say the details yet. It needs to be investigated." Long Ximen muttered, stroking his beard.
"Are you going to the underworld to find the Black Tower?" Yu Xiaolong asked.
"I don't have that time. I need to go to Sichuan Province first to see about the skeleton coffin. I can find someone else to go." Long Ximen thought.
"You want to take me with you to Sichuan Province?" Yu Xiaolong's eyes lit up.
"That's what I mean, I need to take you out to see something." Long Ximen nodded with a smile.
Yu Xiaolong stood up as soon as he heard this and said repeatedly: "Great! I can finally go out with the master! When are we leaving? Now?"
Long Ximen said depressedly: "Let's go! I have to be busy with some things, just wait until I notify you."
Yu Xiaolong sat down again like a deflated rubber ball, and said gloomily: "I thought it was now."
"Let me take a look at your veins, and I'll take care of what needs to be taken care of." After saying this, Long Ximen stretched out his hand.
…
Zhuang Junkai came to Tianxin Sect to report the recent business to Yu Xiaolong, telling him that the store had recently been boycotted by some merchants.
"Why? What did you do to affect them?" Yu Xiaolong was a little confused.
"I'm sure I didn't do anything bad. It's all legitimate business. However, our prices are too cheap and our coverage is too wide, which affects their interests." Zhuang Junkai said with a bitter smile.
"Then there's nothing we can do. Who told us to keep the price low? People like to buy and they don't force them." Yu Xiaolong said with a smile.
"Haha... Boss, that's how it is in business. You decide the price, but there are many things you can't do... Since it's a cake, it's best for everyone to have a bite. If it's all for yourself, Yes, then others will have opinions." Zhuang Junkai reminded.
Yu Xiaolong sighed and said: "In the past few years, I was too kind. I always considered others and would rather suffer for myself. After experiencing so many things, I finally understood. A kind heart may not be respected, and a hard fist will be respected. Others support it. Maybe many are not so willing, but the result is the same. The Tianxin Sect must never do bad things, but they cannot be too kind."
Zhuang Junkai nodded thoughtfully and said: "You have indeed experienced a lot in these years, maybe you have seen more than me. You are the leader, I listen to you!"
The two sat together and talked in detail about the shops in the underworld. Finally, Yu Xiaolong said, "Come on, let me go. It's been a long time since I've had a look."
"It's time for you to go. My boss can't keep showing up. I, the shopkeeper, am so anxious, haha." Zhuang Junkai said with a smile.
Hades…
The two people walked to the city gate, and a Yin soldier smiled and said: "Isn't this the boss of the village? What's wrong? Are you bringing customers?"
"This is our boss, hehe." Zhuang Junkai said with a smile.
"Ah? It turns out that my boss is here, and this is the first time I've met him. I didn't expect him to be so young." Yin Bing's eyes lit up.
Yu Xiaolong took out a stack of Yin coins and said with a smile: "Thanks to you guys for taking care of me, thank you for your hard work!"
The other party was not polite. He brought it over and said with a smile: "My boss, you are so polite. Your business has always been good and you are not cheating. The boss of the village always takes care of you." Us, hehe."
After entering the town, Yu Xiaolong said: "Don't forget the officers and soldiers at the door."
Zhuang Junkai nodded and said, "Yes, I often give them some small favors from time to time, so they take good care of me."
Yu Xiaolong looked around while walking, and said with a smile: "It seems that there are people from the underworld here."
"Of course, they are all here for business, and there are very few people hanging around. After all, this is the underworld, so it's not a good place to be. I always take some pills regularly to prevent the Yin Qi from corroding my veins." Zhuang Junkai smiled.
The Tianxin Sect has a total of three properties in the underworld, namely a drug store, a restaurant and a bank.
Zhuang Junkai traveled back and forth between three places while managing daily operations.
According to Yu Xiaolong's arrangement, he usually spends more time in the drug store. After all, the elixirs sold here are all made by the sect itself, so they need special attention.
】
The restaurant and the bank are respectively run by two ghosts as shopkeepers. They have known Zhuang Junkai for many years and are also veterans in the mall. Zhuang Junkai knew them well, and while giving them generous salaries, he also fully trusted them.
Yu Xiaolong and Zhuang Junkai went to those two places respectively and were very pleased to see that the operations were good.
The last two people walked towards the drug store. Before they reached the door, they heard a noise.
"Are you looking for trouble?" Zhou Kai cursed.
"I won't talk nonsense to you, let the shopkeeper come." A voice said.
"If you fart, just let it go! I'm the shopkeeper, just say it!" Zhou Kai was very unhappy.
"Pull him down! The shopkeeper is Boss Zhuang, you are just a waiter." The other party snorted coldly.
"Where is your grandson? Is he sick? I think you are looking for a beating? Come on, grandpa, let me play with you." Zhou Kai scolded.
"Little Fatty!" Yu Xiaolong walked over.
"Ah, you're here?" Zhou Kai was stunned, not expecting Yu Xiaolong to come here.
"What's going on?" Yu Xiaolong looked and saw a ghost standing next to him, frowning very unhappy.
"Made... this guy bought some elixirs and said they were of no use. Grandma's... everyone said they were OK, but you can't? You still have to return them!" Zhou Kai muttered.
"Why is it useless?" Yu Xiaolong turned around and looked at the ghost and asked.
"I'm not in good health. I heard that this store has medicine that can cure it. I also checked it out with you and they said it was fine. But I bought it and took it for a few days, and I felt... "It has no effect at all. When I came to return the goods, he scolded me, "Who sells things like this?" Gui was very depressed.
"I asked you why it didn't work, what went wrong. You didn't say anything, just said it didn't work, and wanted to return the goods. You are so unreasonable, can I not scold you? Did you come here to cause trouble on purpose? Is it someone? Did the store come to interfere?" Zhou Kai said bitterly with his hands on his hips.
"Give him a full refund," Yu Xiaolong said.
"What? Just retreat?" Zhou Kai was stunned.
"Everyone retreats." Yu Xiaolong waved his hand.
Zhou Kai didn't know what he meant, but seeing how serious Yu Xiaolong was, he could only apply for a refund.
After the ghost got the money, he walked and said to the ghosts who were watching the fun: "It's useless and you won't refund it, and you insult...a drug store like this."
The three of them were sitting in the room. Zhou Kai was very unconvinced and said through gritted teeth: "I've had enough! There are always people looking for trouble recently, Ma De... I couldn't help but almost made a move a few times! If Zhuang Junkai hadn't stopped him, , Damn it, I beat them! What the hell! Is it so difficult to run a business? It seems that my temper is really not suitable for being a boss! "
Zhuang Junkai quickly comforted him: "Brother Fatty, don't be angry. Business is just like this. There are always a few people like this. Let's go out for a good meal tonight and I'll treat you."
Zhou Kai frowned and sighed: "Ma De... OK, let's forget it for your sake. Xiaolong, since you are here, you have to take good care of those bastards!"
At this time, a report came: the ghost got some money from another ghost, who was from the Huang family drug store.
"Huang's Pharmacy?" Zhuang Junkai couldn't help but blurt out, his brows gradually wrinkled, and his face became gloomy.
