The master of the Gua master just wants to set up a stall

Chapter 27

It's no wonder that this person's speech has always been uneasy and vague. It turned out to be a wound on his tongue.

Jiang Chu looked up and saw what was going on and didn't look any further.

"Yeah, so scary."

"How did it get like this?"

"Is it just taking this medicine?"

"This medicine is not only ineffective, it is poisonous!"

Onlookers said in surprise.

"Yes, my tongue was taken from this medicine. It rotted as soon as I finished eating, and now it hurts even talking. You said this medicine is not yours, but mine? Then I won't give it up for 100 spar. You've lost your tongue!" the man roared.

At first, everyone thought that the medicine was replaced by him, but now I am a little uncertain when I hear him say that... Even if it is for the purpose of blackmailing money, isn't the cost a bit higher?
"I didn't expect your Zhenyao Pavilion to be such a black shop, bah!"

"That is, the business is getting more and more black! How can there be such a thing?"

……

They quarreled with them, and Jiang Chu tested his own.

Shopkeeper Gu is a strong man himself, what kind of things have you never seen before?Although this person found fault suddenly, but shopkeeper Gu can still handle it.

Jiang Chu just wanted to know if the person who cheated money came to his store by accident, or if he had other calculations.

After the divination, Jiang Chu looked at the hexagram for a while, and then Shi Shiran put it away.

"...Everyone, please listen to me, the injury on this person's tongue is just an appearance, it looks like a bluff, but it is actually caused by the application of hemp brown juice. It is easy to figure it out, just drink a glass of white water. Self-solve." Shopkeeper Gu looked at the man with a smile, "Besides, Ma Brown juice has a strong smell, you can tell if it is there when you smell it. You said it was caused by taking this medicine pill, but as far as I know, there is no Ma Brown juice here. So your fake injury has nothing to do with your fake medicine pill, and what does it have to do with my Zhenyao Pavilion?"

"If you don't believe it, smell the medicine pill he brought."

As soon as Shopkeeper Gu finished speaking, the man's eyes began to dodge and wander.

"I'm here to smell... It really doesn't smell like hemp brown juice."

"Hey, you said that you only became like this after eating other people's medicinal pills, so how dare you drink some water?"

"That is, if you dare to drink water, then we will believe you!"

The passerby asked the man.

"That's probably my mistake."

The man didn't "love the fight" at all. As soon as he realized that he couldn't bluff the shopkeeper Gu, he lowered his head and turned away, leaving a bunch of people pointing at him.

Manager Gu's level of Xuan-level alchemy is not low, and he knows much about pharmacology. This trivial question can't help him at all. When he saw the man leaving, he just shook his head, "I'll let you guys see a joke, I really appreciate it. The medicine pavilion is not deceived, and what it does is honest business, please don't listen to other people's false words."

"Where, we were almost deceived and listened to that person's nonsense."

"The shopkeeper is amazing. The thief who said it in a few words ran away. I just want to buy some medicinal materials, so I can buy it at your house."

……

Zhenyao Pavilion was a blessing in disguise, and it also promoted a wave of consumption because of that person, which made people laugh and cry.

When the guests left after buying things, Jiang Chu said, "Can Uncle Gu recognize that person?"

"I don't know, he hasn't bought anything from me, I think his eyes are very sharp." Shopkeeper Gu shook his head and looked down at the medicine bottle that the man didn't take away, "I don't know who this medicine bottle is. for him."

"Our Zhenyao Pavilion has been operating with integrity and has been operating for many years, and our customers are relatively stable. It shouldn't be a big draw to be targeted by opponents." Jiang Chu asked tentatively, "Uncle Gu, you said... He will Wouldn't it be sent by you or my father's old enemy?"

"Old enemy?"

Uncle Gu was taken aback for a moment, "Even if we have enemies, they are all left behind when we were bounty hunters, we shouldn't..."

Halfway through, he thought of something.

Since his strength was stagnant and could no longer be improved, he became an old shopkeeper with peace of mind, and at the same time, he refined and pondered on alchemy.

There are no enemies in running the shop these years. The Zhenyao Pavilion is not too big or small, and no one will take them as a competitor and make trouble.

So if it was really sent by the enemy, it would only be the person before he became the shopkeeper.

At this thought, what was really in mind of the shopkeeper Gu.

However, this cannot be said to Jiang Chu, and she has to wait until her father returns to discuss it with him.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Chu knew what he was thinking of, and he couldn't help letting go.

If you know who did it, you can prepare more so that you won't be targeted and you don't know why.

She didn't mean to ask, she took the medicine pill and left.

On the way home, Jiang Chu was thinking about the effect of taking the pills after returning home, but he didn't pay attention to the situation on the way. He was still a little dazed after being suddenly stopped.

"Who called me?"

She looked up, dazed.

"Girl, it's me, shopkeeper Liu."

The man in front of her blocked her on the street, and was smiling at her, "Before, I didn't know Taishan, but I didn't expect the girl to be so powerful!"

Jiang Chu was still at a loss, "Who are you, we know each other?"

Saying that, she looked at Hua Lan.

Hua Lan shook her head.

She doesn't know either.

"Cough, the lady is really a noble person who forgets things. Didn't you remind me a few days ago that there would be a strong wind and persuade me to put away the talisman? I was careless and didn't listen to your words, resulting in heavy losses." Shopkeeper Liu said Just a bitter smile.

Oh, remembered.

It turns out that this is the unlucky stall owner whose talisman was blown by the strong wind, so that most of them were picked up by passers-by.

I also persuaded him to put it away earlier and not put it on the road, but he refused to listen. Later, it was his younger brother Jiang Ting who said that the person fell ill after the incident, and the store was closed for several days.

Jiang Chu looked at Shopkeeper Liu with sympathy on his face, "The shopkeeper has lost a lot of weight."

I haven't seen each other for a few days, and this person has lost a lot of weight, as if he hadn't eaten for a few days!
No wonder Jiang Chu didn't recognize him at first sight.

"Oh, it's hard to say. If the girl has nothing to do, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea? I just have something to ask the girl."

Jiang Chu looked at the man and the shop behind him, and nodded, "Alright."

Hua Lan followed Jiang Chu in with a blank face—

What are they talking about, why can't they understand?

"To be honest, I have something to ask for."

Inviting Jiang Chu in and pouring tea for her, shopkeeper Liu said:
"At present, I am facing a dilemma. I am a little nervous about the money in my hand, but the shop has to be opened. The whole family expects me to eat, drink and live. But the current situation is that the original talisman wants me to give him an increase in wages. , otherwise he will leave. I have used this person for several years, and I am used to working together. I don’t want him to leave too much, but if I agree to the extra money he mentioned, it may be a problem for my current life. It's all broken bones."
