After completing the mortgage surgery, Mo Fei took out a stack of banknotes and handed them to Xu Xian, saying:
"Mr. Medical Saint, these are all the banknotes from Pawnshop No. 9. As for the cash, I will personally deliver it to the Xu Mansion after it has been clearly counted."
Xu Xian took the banknote, nodded and said:
"Okay, then I'll go back and come back another day to take care of your business."
Taking care of business?
Is this a clear grab?
Could it be that Xu Xian, who had lost millions of taels of silver in three months, could come up with the money to redeem his shop?
If Xu Xian didn't come to redeem the shop, he wouldn't dare to take the shop away according to the breach of contract. The hundreds of thousands of taels of silver must have been wasted.
Of course, Pawnshop No. 9 is Zhao Gou's property, and Ji Shi Tang's shop is also Zhao Gou's in name. Could it be that he is just a part-time worker, and he has no right to take care of these things.
Mo Fei just needs to report it and Zhao Gou will take care of it (Zhao Gou should have closed his ears and pretended that it didn't happen), so Mo Fei doesn't need to worry.
Mo Fei bowed and said:
"Medical Saint, walk slowly, I remembered something."
Xu Xian stopped and asked:
"Tell me."
Mo Fei said:
"I heard a legend that anyone who takes more than one hundred thousand taels of silver from this pawn shop will definitely become prosperous in the future and have a bright future.
The Medical Saint is the first distinguished customer to take away more than one hundred thousand taels of silver in the past thirty years. All the luck accumulated in our store for thirty years has been taken away by the Medical Saint.
The last thing I want to say is, congratulations and good luck to the medical sage. "
Could it be that he just wanted to say something happy and make friends, hoping that Xu Xian would see that he was a better person, polite and respectful enough, so he wouldn't try to mess with him next time.
Although they are all Zhao Gou's properties, he is also under performance pressure. If the pawnshop is really bankrupted by Xu Xian, is it also a failed shopkeeper.
Xu Xian asked:
"Who took away more than one hundred thousand taels of silver thirty years ago?"
Mo Fei said:
“As far as I know, they all hold high positions in the government now.
Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng and others all visited No. 9 Pawn Shop thirty years ago and took away more than one hundred thousand taels of silver.
Since then, their official career has been prosperous. "
Xu Xian asked:
"You mean, they used money to open roads? Or did you mean to buy officials?"
Mo Fei shook his head and said:
"I also heard it from people. I don't know the specific situation. Thirty years ago, I was just a young boy."
Xu Xian muttered:
"Isn't Tong Guan a eunuch? If Tong Guan was really that rich thirty years ago, he certainly wouldn't have chosen to be a eunuch, right?"
Mo Fei nodded and said:
"It's indeed rather weird. Maybe being a eunuch can help you get closer to His Majesty and help you get promoted faster."
Xu Xian smiled and said:
"One thing they have in common is that they are all recognized as traitors. Except for Cai Jing, Tong Guan and Liang Shicheng are all eunuchs."
After finishing speaking, Xu Xian turned around and walked out of No. 9 Pawn Shop.
What appeared in front of me was not the familiar street, but another No. 9 pawnshop.
This No. 9 pawnshop is relatively large and grand, and looks very exaggerated. There is a big word "dang" above the tall counter, and below the word "dang" are four exaggerated gold-plated characters:
"Pawn Shop No. 9."
There is a strange aura about these four words.
"Welcome to Pawn Shop No. 9!"
A strange voice sounded.
Xu Xian looked around and saw a black figure standing behind the counter.
The black shadow is not a flat black shadow, but a three-dimensional human-shaped black shadow. The details are relatively blurred, and the five tubes cannot be seen clearly. It is just a black mist.
Xu Xian asked:
"Who are you? Is your name also Mo Fei?
If that's the case, you are much less polite than he is. "
The strange voice of the black shadow sounded, saying:
"No, I'm not Mo Fei.
I am your desire, or inner demon. "
Xu Xian smiled and said:
"Then what?"
Black Shadow said:
"Say your wish and I will make your dream come true, at the cost of the money you carry."
"Is it just for money?"
Xu Xian laughed and said:
"I have no desire, and I can't give you money. I'm very poor with money, and I'm a tough guy who doesn't pay a dime. You can get out."
Black Shadow said:
"This is my world. If you tell me to get out, do you want to become me? Let me go to the world in your place?"
Xu Xian said:
"I have no intention of replacing you, just open the door and let me go back."
Black Shadow said:
"Isn't the door just opposite? Wherever you want to go, just choose the corresponding door."
As the black shadow spoke, nine portals slowly appeared on the wall.
Nine portals! Pawnshop No. 9!
The portal is not an ordinary portal, but a door to time and space, and behind the door is a world.
The first door leads to the earth, where Xu Xian lived before traveling to the Misty World.
The second door leads to the Xu Mansion before it was destroyed. At that time, although Xu Xian was living a life of fine clothes and fine food, he was studying hard day and night, trying to gain fame.
Xu Xian now has the memories of these two worlds. It is difficult to say which one is dominant, but it is definitely Xu Xian's bond.
An ordinary person might choose one of them, but Xu Xian would never choose one.
Xu Xian did not believe that the black shadow was really his desire or inner demon, but felt that the other party was a cultivator or awakened person, just pretending to be a ghost.
The Piaomiao World is a small world. The opponent's strength must be limited. It is impossible to open the real door of time and space. Everything behind the door must be an illusion.
If Xu Xian went in, he might really get lost in it because of his ties to his relatives.
To break the situation, it seemed that there was only one door to choose. Xu Xian looked at the third door.
The third door leads to the prehistoric world.
The fourth door leads to a chaotic world where heroes compete for the throne.
The fifth gate leads to the interstellar era where technology is very advanced.
The sixth doorway leads to the wasteland after the nuclear war.
The seventh door leads to the world of cultivation, which is a bit like the ethereal world, but it is not.
The eighth gate leads to the Western Paradise.
The ninth gate leads to the fairy world.
Xu Xian turned around and looked at the black shadow and asked:
"I want to ask, how did Liang Shicheng leave?"
Black Shadow said:
"Liang Shicheng stayed, but what left was his desire and greed.
You can also choose to stay and let me live the future in the secular world instead of you. "
During the Zhenghe period, Master Liang became the favorite of Emperor Huizong of Chu. He was granted a Jinshi status, moved to Jinzhou as an observation envoy, was promoted to the German Army Jiedu Envoy, was promoted to the Inspector of the School, paid homage to the Taiwei and Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and moved to the Huainan Festival. Degree envoy.
Nowadays, Liang Shicheng is becoming more and more powerful. He has committed corruption, accepted bribes, sold his official position, and committed all kinds of evil. He is known as the "hidden minister".
It would make sense to say that Master Liang stayed behind and what left was desire and greed.
Xu Xian pondered for a moment and asked the system:
"I'm not sure, I need your help."
Xu Xian was not sure whether the existence of the fantasy world was related to Mo Fei, Zhao Gou and others. If it was really related to them, it would be troublesome for the enemy to see his weakness.
Xu Xian was unsure and didn't want to take action, so he had to turn to the system for help.
The cold mechanical voice of the system sounded:
"The host will solve it himself."
If this matter is not handled properly, the situation will take a turn for the worse, which will be very unfavorable to Xu Xian. The system's standing by and watching made Xu Xian furious and said:
"I sold you to see if you still dare to remain indifferent."
After finishing speaking, Xu Xian left on his way.
Although the origin is obscured by illusion, Xu Xian is hard to find.
Then, I saw Xu Xian coming back again.
Xu Xiandao said with a forced smile on his face.
"I remembered that Xu Mansion hasn't mortgaged it yet. Now that we're here, let's mortgage it together."
Could it be asked:
"What is the psychological price of the medical saint? The money from the pawn shop already belongs to the medical saint. It will take some time to pay the money from the Xu family."
Xu Xian smiled and said:
"I don't want it to be too expensive, so as not to embarrass shopkeeper Mo, just one tael of silver. If you don't have any money, just write an IOU."
Shopkeeper Mo wrote an IOU in confusion and handed it to Xu Xian.
After taking the IOU, Xu Xian easily left No. 9 Pawnshop this time.
Xu Xian guessed correctly, Xu Fu was really related to the system, Xu Fu might be part of the system. Xu Xian fooled the system, and the system had to compromise and obediently help Xu Xian leave.
