Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 170: Penny
Yunying City.
The east side of the city is the richest.
The west side of the city is the poorest. The west gate is where bulk goods are sold and there are many casual and hard jobs. The poor people gather there.
The south of the city is the most stable, and most of the people with small savings are in the south of the city.
The north of the city is the most chaotic. Wanyu Cave, Wanzhong Mountain, and cemeteries are all in the north, and there are many people fishing out of the way.
Zhentang almost never stopped.
Report all the time, news from each restaurant.
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise outside.
Lu Tong walked to the window.
I saw a ball of golden light exploding in the sky.
The golden light turned into golden clouds, slowly changing, and finally turned into a golden beauty lying on the ground.
"At Dading Restaurant in the south of the city, one person congratulates one hundred taels of silver."
"Xing Zhai in the north of the city, one person congratulates one hundred taels of silver."
"South of the city..."
Zhentang spoke one after another.
Lu Tong looked up at the lying beauty in the sky and couldn't help but smile.
Marrying a Taoist couple is really a great thing.
Jing Xin also looked up and said, "Junior sister said that you often ask for pills from the pill pool?"
"Yes."
Danchi is a gathering place for alchemists in Yiyi Sect.
One and a half years ago.
He asked Bai Qiao for help.
Bai Qiao introduced a person through whom he could ask for elixirs from the elixir pool.
Yumou Dan, Sanling Dan.
They cost a lot of money and were made by alchemists in the alchemy pool.
"Why sacrifice the near for the distant and let outsiders take advantage. If you need pills in the future, just go to Cage Fire."
"Thank you, Immortal!"
Jing Xin handed over a magic weapon that looked like a fire moth.
"This is the sound transmission instrument of Cage Fire."
Lu Tong took over and asked: "Immortal, can the Hexagonal Ginkgo Pill be refined?"
"The fire will take care of itself."
He said again: "Thank you, Immortal."
Hexagonal Ginkgo Pill is very difficult.
I previously asked the alchemist from the alchemy pool to make two furnaces, but both failed.
The two sums of money spent on buying herbal medicine were thrown into the water in vain.
……
Flowing water seat, two hours before and after.
Afternoon.
The waiters and servants of the Zhen family returned one by one, poured out the money and handed over the account books.
There were copper plates and broken silver all over the floor.
There are some large silver ingots among them.
There are also a few golden lights, which are extremely rare and extremely dazzling.
Besides, various accountants were sitting together, busy counting accounts.
In midsummer, the sun is like fire.
It feels spicy and painful when exposed to the sun.
But Lu Tong didn't feel the heat at all. His tiger paws stepped on the copper plates and broken silver, with a heartfelt smile on his face.
It took a while.
The accounts are finally out.
Zhen Tang held a thick stack of paper and said:
"Laotang Restaurant, a total of 237 taels. Among them: 491 people congratulate one coin; 201 people congratulate two coins; 53 people congratulate three coins; 32 people congratulate five coins money; fifty-two people congratulate one tael; seven people congratulate five taels; one person congratulates 10 taels of silver. Those who congratulate the silver less than one tael, a total of 265 people."
Lu Tong looked down at Yinzi, his mind racing.
Laotang Restaurant is in the west of the city.
The two-story building has seven tables on the first floor and eight on the second floor, a total of fifteen tables.
Each table seats eight people, and one hundred and twenty people can be seated at the same time.
A cup of tea changes a person.
In two hours, there were twenty-four changes of people, and a maximum of 2,880 people could be entertained.
When calculating the money, his mind was extremely clear.
It turns much faster than when I was studying Taoism and enlightenment. It is actually a bit like the seeds of enlightenment mentioned in the book.
Lu Tong kept thinking, recalling numbers one after another.
Soon, he frowned.
Even if it is not full every time, based on the busyness today, there will be no less than 2,000 people going in to eat.
Almost 40% of the guys have nothing to lose.
Freeloaders.
He turned his head and shouted: "First think about the restaurant in the south of the city, Zangxiaozhai."
Zhen Tang looked at Jing Xin.
Changed a pile of paper, searched for a moment, and said: "Zangxiaozhai, a total of six hundred and forty-three taels. Heyin: Seven hundred and eighty-three people congratulate one coin..."
Lu Tong let out a breath.
Laotang Restaurant and Zangxiaozhai are both about the same size.
It’s just that one family is in the west of the city and the other is in the south.
To the west of the city, there is a poor man.
If you have no skin and no face, just rub it if you can.
Chengnan is different.
The neighbors are all acquaintances, and the city lord is marrying a Taoist couple.
Even if you can afford it, you will still consider your face.
The Liangyao Tea Tavern is located in the west of the city.
He knows the character of his neighbors very well and has little hope for Chengxi.
Zhen Tang read them all one by one.
The broken silver and copper plates were also put away.
After careful cleaning and arrangement, place them neatly in the box.
Boxes of all sizes.
Four boxes of copper plates, two boxes of broken silver, a small box of silver ingots, and a small box of gold particles.
Next to it, there are a lot of paper and gold books.
Zhen Tang said: "Chief Immortal, Mr. Lu, a total of fifty-seven thousand two hundred and fifty-three taels, and another one hundred and thirty-six copper coins."
Jing Xin stood next to the box and said: "A mere banquet can actually bring in nearly sixty thousand taels."
Aside.
Lu Tong stared at the silver, nodded and said: "It's a pity that we can't do it every month."
Half of this silver comes from the south of the city.
The people in the south of the city have few freeloaders and spend a lot of money.
The majority of congratulatory gifts are one penny of silver;
The second is five pieces of silver;
After that, two coins, one tael, five taels, and ten taels.
For every seven or eight restaurants, there is a big spender.
Jing Xin said: "If you erase the fraction, how much silver is 30%?"
"Seventeen thousand one hundred taels."
Zhen Tang said from the side.
Lu Tong's expression changed instantly and he said hastily: "Immortal! The restaurant's money hasn't been settled yet, so I have to deduct a sum!"
"How much will be deducted?"
"There are ninety-seven restaurants in total, and the price is at least thirty thousand taels. Roast pig is not cheap!"
Jing Xin looked at Zhen Tang.
Zhen Tang thought for a moment and said: "Mr. Lu, more than 20,000 should be enough. Except at the beginning, we only get a roast pig three or five times later."
Lu Tong's face felt a little hot.
But my face was already red, so I couldn’t see it.
Roast pig, really not much.
Things were in such a hurry that I only had one day to prepare.
Pig market, not enough pigs.
He shook his head and added: "We still have to count the restaurant's wages. If we delay business for a day, we will get a lot of money."
Jingxin looked towards Zhentang.
Zhen Tang nodded slightly and said: "About 25,000 taels or so."
Jing Xin thought for a moment.
"I will take 10,000 taels. The Zhen family worked for two days to get 2,000 taels. What do you think?"
"Okay."
Lu Tong nodded in agreement.
Work and get paid.
It is a matter of course.
Thanks to the Zhen family this time, there will be no next time.
……
The remaining amount is 45,253 taels.
The matter is not over yet.
The mirror core remains in the tower to guard against unexpected events.
Lu Tong went out alone.
Exchanged one thousand taels of gold and bought a gilt ebony box.
It's a rush.
Enter the city lord's mansion.
The house was filled with joy.
He found Cai Dayou and said, "Where is the city lord?"
"Still in Jinlou. How is it? How much money did you earn?"
"Take me to see the city lord."
Nine-story golden building.
Bright and sparkling.
At the top~IndoMTL.com~ there is a golden chariot.
On the chariot, a golden beauty sat cross-legged.
Lu Tong glanced.
Can't tell whether the golden beauty is a dead thing or a living person.
In front of the golden building, there are small tables.
Top.
Yan Ziqiu sat alone at a long table, drinking and having fun.
Lu Tong walked over all the way.
Took out the gilt box, handed it over with both hands and said: "I have met the city lord! Lu, from all over Yunying City, congratulates the city lord!"
Yan Ziqiu opened the box casually.
He glanced at it and froze slightly.
"So many?"
Lu Tong also stayed in place.
Is this more?
He also prepared a box of broken silver worth ten thousand taels in case Yan Ziqiu got angry.
Yan Ziqiu looked at Lu Tong with a smile on his face and said, "I heard that you were collecting congratulatory silver in a restaurant. How many percent of it is congratulatory silver, and how many percent is yours?"
Lu Tong forced out a very bright smile.
"Back to the city lord! This is the sentiment of the people in the city, and I have another gift for you!"
He took out a glass mirror.
A large mirror over one foot high, with a surface like bright silver and a circle of pearls embedded around it.
The glazed mirror was facing Yan Ziqiu.
In the mirror.
Yan Ziqiu huddled in the left corner.
Like a little quail.
Yan Ziqiu's face suddenly turned cold, and his aura became a little gloomy.
Lu Tong quickly poured in his magic power.
The mirror ripples.
In the pearl, mist spreads out.
In the mirror.
Yan Ziqiu turned into a white-haired immortal.
Stepping on spiritual clouds, eyes filled with starlight.
"Hey, you really have some fun stuff!"
"As long as the city lord agrees."
Yan Ziqiu looked up and down and said: "It's really a bit of a waste to walk. Let me ask you, are there any other ways to make money?"
"What?"
Lu Tong froze on the spot, wondering what Yan Ziqiu's intention was.
