Fairy cage

Yu Lie was a little confused when he heard Lao Yutou's cry of surprise.

When he came to his senses, he quickly grabbed the other party's robe and asked urgently: What's the explanation?

Old Yutou heard the sound, coughed, and became more awake. However, he pinched his fingers and muttered: What is the date of the arrival today... just right!

Old Yutou did not answer Yu Lie's question, but gave up and shouted happily: Brother Yu, don't worry, just follow me, it will be your benefit!

Immediately, Old Yutou opened the small door of the darkroom and pulled Yu Lie outside.

Yu Lie waited for Lao Yutou for a while. After the other party finished handling the matters in the Taoist Courtyard, he pulled Yu Lie towards the ghost street.

It was already dark at this time, and the two came to the entrance of the ghost street. There were quite a few people who were rushing early. They walked into the alley one by one, and then stood in front of the door beast head, took out their own money and wandered around.

Yu Lie and Lao Yutou got together.

When he took out his money bag and jingled to wake up the beast's head, Old Yutou next to him dodged and immediately submerged into the wall, without even a sound coming from the bag.

Yu Lie turned his head, his eyes slightly surprised, and murmured in his heart: This little old man is really rich. Could it be that he has a spiritual stone in his hand? No wonder he can get the VIP card of the teahouse.

Yu Lie has recently become a regular customer of the teahouse and has a VIP card, but what he has in his hand is just a lower-ranking card.

Later, after Yu Lie entered the ghost street, his eyes immediately lit up with colors, and his ears immediately heard loud shouts. A hand suddenly stretched out, grabbed his sleeve, and pushed him forward with him.

The person who pulled Yu Lie was Lao Yutou, who even whispered: Hurry up, hurry up! Now is the time to race against time.

Old Yutou was much more familiar with the ghost streets than Yu Lie. He led Yu Lie around the ghost streets, taking shortcuts, and suddenly came to the shop streets of the ghost streets.

After passing the small but exquisite shops, he came to a dilapidated shop without even a plaque. Old Yu put his hand on the side of the shop and knocked.

A vigilant voice immediately came from inside the shop: Who?

Old Yutou opened his mouth and shouted: I, your uncle!

There was the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets inside the shop, and soon a short secret door opened. Yu Lie and Lao Yutou had to bow before they could walk in.

A man wearing a black robe appeared in Yu Lie's eyes. The other person's face was hidden in the shadows, and he may have been wearing a face scarf, making it impossible to see any clues.

Yu Lie was also dressed in a similar way. After seeing Yu Lie, the other party stared at Yu Lie closely, and then said to Old Yutou: It's you, what's the matter? A sudden attack occurred today. Are you here to check the accounts, or are you here? Introduce me to a big customer?

Lao Yutou did not reply to the other party's words, but immediately said: Close the door first, there is something urgent.

The man in black robes turned on the mechanism in the shop with some doubts.

Yu Lie heard the sound of Ji Kuo, and the noisy noise outside the shop immediately disappeared. At the same time, the man in black robe stamped his feet, and a dark hole appeared at his feet. There was a faint light inside, and there was a ladder leading down.

The men in black robes climbed down the ladder, and the rest of the group followed them down into the cave without their explanation.

After entering the cave, Yu Lie discovered that the space underneath was much larger than the shop above.

The shop above is only equivalent to the human head and face, while the hole below is the human body, which is spacious and can store goods.

When Yu Lie saw the structure of the shops in the ghost street, he immediately understood that in addition to the dark alleys, the regular merchants in the ghost street must have other channels or methods to enter the ghost street to facilitate the transportation of goods.

The three of them sat around a small wooden table, and the man in black robe said, What's the matter? You can talk now.

When Yu Lie heard this, he also stared at Lao Yutou, wanting to know the meaning of the other party's move.

Old Yutou whispered: The major troops are ahead of schedule, there are only two or three months left.

What? After hearing the news, the man in black robe stood up from the short stool and stared at Old Yutou:

really?

Yu Lie squinted his eyes and found that this man was as excited as Lao Yutou. His voice was trembling a little, but it was not a tremor of panic, but a tremor of surprise like Lao Yutou.

Old Yutou lifted up his cloak, nodded affirmatively, then pointed at the remaining columns and said:

This is the information that this person brought out. As for who this person is, you don't need to ask, but I can guarantee that this person will not talk nonsense, and his status is not low.

After hearing this, the man in black robe walked in the cave and let out a weird laugh:

Jie Jie! Let me just say that the other towns started in the first half of the year, and our town probably won't be able to endure next year. But it only starts in two or three months, which is a little bit hasty.

Old Yutou said: It's better to be hasty. The more urgent it is, the fewer people will know about it, and the more money we can make!

The man in black robe clapped his hands: Damn! I just said that the price of some things today has been increased. I thought they were goods from those stores and were robbed by the town next door! It must be those guys, yesterday Just know...

Old Yutou and the man in black robe were whispering to each other in the cave.

As Yu Lie listened, his eyes became more and more weird. He slowly understood what the other two were talking about, and what the good thing Lao Yutou meant.

It turns out that Lao Yutou has a lot of influence in the shop where Yu Lie is located. The man in black robe is suspected to be a Taoist boy from Qiyuan, and they opened this shop together. Among them, Old Yutou is responsible for attracting customers, and the man in black robe is responsible for buying and selling goods. Each has his own way.

As for what the two of them are muttering about, they want to take advantage of the fact that the prices in the town have not yet risen, to stock up, take advantage of the upcoming price increase, and reap a wave of dividends!

When Yu Lie heard this, he cursed secretly in his heart.

Missing him, after hearing the news from She Shuangbai, all he wanted to do was save his life and get some bargains. But when people found out, they wanted to take this opportunity to make a fortune, or even take the initiative to raise prices!

Simply not human!

But the next moment, Old Yutou suddenly said: This news came from my brother, and he deserves the credit.

The man in black robe asked Yu Lie again: Of course. By the way, brother, do you have the capital?

Yu Lie had a sharp ear, his eyes lit up, he coughed lightly and said firmly:

have!

The man in black robe said: That's easy to handle!

The other party walked in the cave and muttered: It's a pity that there is no high-ranking Taoist among us, so we have to show filial piety. Otherwise, not only will there be no need to show filial piety, but we will take the opportunity to monopolize several kinds of goods, and then we can set whatever price we want. , a wave of obesity is possible for ten years.”

The other person added: Hey! But I know a few guys who bought the goods at the beginning of the new year. Now even if they have lost everything, no one dares to take over. Now is the time when Pindao used to be generous and spread wealth. It’s time to help those in need!”

The three of them conspired and made a brief decision on the low table. Of course, Yu Lie was just listening and revealing what kind of goods he could provide.

This opportunity to make a lot of money was worth it for Yu Lie to swallow up all the goods in Dukou's inventory!

After the agreement was completed, the man in black robe was about to take action, and kept chanting: Time is money!

Yu Lie looked at the two people in front of him who were so excited. His reason was still there. He hesitated for a moment and suddenly said:

Two fellow Taoists, the 'Big Point Soldier' ​​is dangerous. Although it is good to make money, don't forget to prepare things for yourself.

Yu Lie raised his hands towards the man in black robes and called out: This fellow Taoist, if you have any good things to save your life, please leave some for this poor Taoist!

His words caused the man in black robe who was about to go out to stop immediately and turned his head to look at Yu Lie.

Hey! The other party suddenly laughed strangely, and then lifted his hood down.

A square face appeared in Yu Lie's eyes. The man's temples were gray and he looked like a serious middle-aged man, which was completely different from his treacherous voice.

The middle-aged man Fang Zheng said in a deep voice: So it turns out that this is a little friend who has not joined the Dadian Army yet. This little friend is willing to share this kind of news. I know this and will definitely pay attention to it for you!

The other party cupped his hands towards Yu Lie and was about to leave.

But after walking a few steps, the middle-aged man Fang Zheng suddenly took out a booklet from his sleeve and said: This is the goods list in the grocery store. All the goods are available. If there is anything unclear, let me know. Right here, kids can ask him.

After saying that, the middle-aged man put on his hood and cloak and left in a hurry.

Only Yu Lie and Lao Yutou were left in the room.

Old Yutou cleared his throat, took out a teapot from somewhere in the cave, bit it in his mouth, and introduced Yu Lie in detail:

This is a big force. It happens every twelve years. It's related to the Taoist examination. It's to force out a few more high-ranking Taoist boys.

Yu Lie's heart skipped a beat when he heard this: Sure enough, Dadian soldiers are training soldiers, and they are related to the life and death test of passing the Taoist disciple exam!

Old Yutou added: This is because several nearby towns, every twelve years, that is, every four batches of Taoist boys, will join forces to take the exam. And that money-greedy guy and I are both big Those who are older than me have settled in the town twelve years earlier. Even if they are selected to be sent out, they will be placed in various strongholds outside the town. They don’t have to go out to fight for life and death, but it will be more convenient for doing business...

Yu Lie instantly understood that all his guesses were correct, and the big battle was a training.

This gave him peace of mind and a little excitement: In this way, this is also an opportunity. The three batches of Taoist boys in the past have not been able to be tempered in the first three years!

Yu Lie sat in the cave and chatted a few more words with Lao Yutou.

He raised his doubts about Da Dian Bing one by one, and Lao Yutou answered them as best as he could, and his words were more specific and straightforward than what Yu Lie saw in the library.

Yu Lie also learned that the business that the square middle-aged man who walked out just now was not limited to Heishui Town. The advance deployment of troops in Blackwater Town will also have an impact on the neighboring towns, especially the goods related to the specialty products of Blackwater Town.

It's just that ordinary people rarely think about this level, and even if they do, they don't have the ability and connections to realize it, and they can't even drink soup.

After such an exchange, Yu Lie immediately felt very lucky and happy about his visit to Lao Yutou today, and thanked She Shuangbai again.

He secretly said in his heart: Good-hearted people will live up to God and make a lot of money!

While talking, Yu Lie was also looking through the inventory given by the middle-aged man.

As he looked at it, he suddenly stared at an item in the inventory, his eyes brightened slightly, and after thinking about it for a while, his eyes showed great joy.

Yu Lie realized that he had an excellent way to save his life!
