Chapter 8 Summer Sun City

Jiang Chu left the Gua stall, but on the way to the carriage, he accidentally saw a talisman shop.

The talisman is easy to carry and has various functions. It can be used in daily life or as a combat aid, so it has always been loved by many people, but its high price is still a bit persuasive, except for some people from the family. I really don't dare to use it too often.

However, the price of some basic talismans is still relatively close to the people, such as the refreshing talisman that will not sleep and not sleepy all night, the fasting talisman that will not eat for three days and will not be hungry after using it, and it is inconvenient to take a bath when going out, so use it to avoid dust sign...

Ordinary people grit their teeth a little, but they can still buy a few sheets for use every month.

"Master Liufeng's new talisman arrived today, and the quantity of each is small, so buy it as soon as possible!"

The not-so-old shopkeeper took out the talisman from the store and began to place it on the booth outside the door, shouting loudly while placing it.

Fu Zhuan is generally done by the rich, especially when some bounty hunters go out and use it a lot. The frequency of ordinary people buying it is still relatively low.Now that the end of the month is approaching, this month's sales are not quite up to the mark.

Apart from some basic costs, there is also a huge expense for the service fee for Master Fu. It can be said that the money given to Master Fu is higher than the pure profit of a store.

Now that this month is almost over, it is almost time to settle the fee with the Talisman Master, but the number of Talismans sold in the store is a bit small, so in order to generate income, the shopkeeper has been doing discounts for the past two days.

In the past, talismans were always placed on the counter in the store, but since yesterday, he has been selling them on the street, so that people who come and go can see them, and maybe they will spend money to buy one two.

The effect of doing this is still considerable. The turnover of one day yesterday caught up with the previous 5 days, so he plans to do it today.

Although it is a bit out of grade, but in order to generate income, it can only be done temporarily.

When Jiang Chu passed by, he saw the shopkeeper spread the talismans one by one on the table, all spread out, and it looked very clear.

but……

Jiang Chu stopped, "Treasurer, are you planning to sell it like this today?"

"Yeah, so everyone can see it clearly when passing by. I sold it like this yesterday. The girl thought she didn't see it."

The shopkeeper didn't recognize Jiang Chu, so there was nothing unusual on his expression, and he smiled at her very gently, "See if you need anything, I just opened the door now, girl, if you are the first to buy it, I will give you the price! "

"When did you sell like this yesterday?" Jiang Chu asked.

This question is a bit strange, the shopkeeper was stunned for a while, and looked at Jiang Chu, "It's almost evening, around Shen Shi."

To spend most of the day?
Jiang Chu glanced at the shopkeeper, "Maybe I'm busy with my own business, but today will change, and there will be strong winds. If the wind suddenly blows, then you may have a chance... Shopkeeper, you can decide how to deal with this matter. Farewell."

After speaking, Jiang Chu did not stop, walked directly through the alley, and got on the carriage in front.

The shopkeeper looked at Jiang Chu's back in amazement——

A gust of wind?
He looked at the talisman on his desk.

There are quite a few of these talismans, and there are at least two or three hundred pieces to display. The cheapest one costs 2 taels of silver, and the most expensive one even costs hundreds.

If there is a sudden gust of wind, and the wind blows these talismans all over the street, then I will definitely not be able to catch up, and maybe someone will steal these talismans on his table in the chaos!

The consequences are too serious.

However, the shopkeeper raised his head and looked at the sky.

Sunny, no wind, not even the leaves on the trees moved.

"Hehe, what's wrong with me, I actually care about a little girl's words, not to mention that the sky will not change today, but it really does. I can also put away these talismans at the first time when I feel wrong, how can it be? Is there a loss?" The shopkeeper thought about it but suddenly smiled.

The effect of putting it out and selling it is too good. As long as it is sold for two more days, the turnover this month will be almost the same.

Although there is a discount, the discount is not large, and it is still a lot of money in comparison.

The shopkeeper, who had tasted the sweetness, put Jiang Chu's reminder behind him in a blink of an eye.

"Don't miss it when you are passing by, Master Liufeng's new talisman has arrived today, and the quantity of each is small, so buy it as soon as possible!"

He hawked again.

After traveling on the road, Jiang Chu and the three finally arrived at Shuyang City in the afternoon.

Because the thought that rushed into his mind was only a fragment, Jiang Chu didn't know what this Aunt Hao looked like, what identity she was, and where she lived, so it took some effort to find her.

"Miss, why don't we split up and look for it?" the coachman suggested.

"No need, you can find an inn to place the carriage. I'll take Wuyou to inquire, it shouldn't be a hassle." Jiang Chu said.

The driver agreed, "If you need anything, you can go to the inn to find a villain."

"it is good."

After getting off the carriage, Jiang Chu asked Wuyou in the city.

"Is there an Aunt Hao who lost her daughter in the city?"

Jiang Chu didn't ask passers-by casually. All she asked were the shopkeepers of roadside shops, or those vendors who were pushing carts and selling sundries on the road.

Generally, such people are relatively well-informed.

"Never heard of it."

"do not know."

"Ask someone else."

I asked three or five people in a row, and the answers I got were not very optimistic.

Jiang Chu is not discouraged.

The merchants here don't know, it's very likely that Aunt Hao doesn't live in this area.

After thinking about it, Jiang Chu found the beggars and successfully got the news with a tael of silver—

"Are you asking about Aunt Hao from Qingshan Lane? She was looking for her daughter yesterday, but I didn't see her today. Go look for her there."

After inquiring about the location of Qingshan Lane, Jiang Chu walked over with Wuyou.

The reason for walking is to know something about Shuyang City, and maybe you will get some clues on the way.

While walking, Wuyou looked at Jiang Chu several times—

She didn't know what Jiang Chu was going to do.

Miss Mingming had never been to Shuyang City, but she came suddenly now, and she was still looking for an Aunt Hao who she obviously did not know.

This is something that Wuyou doesn't quite understand, but she has been deaf and dumb for many years, and she has long lost the curiosity she should have.

If there is an order, just do it according to the order. If there is no order, just act as a shadow and keep quiet.

In fact, this is also the reason why Jiang Chu is willing to bring worry-free.

Some things can't be explained, and it's very convenient to have someone around who doesn't ask questions and doesn't bother.

She loves worry-free!
After walking for half an hour, Jiang Chu saw a dirty and old alley——

Qingshan Alley.
