Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 171: Checkout

Under the Golden Pagoda.

Yan Ziqiu sat behind the table with a rosy complexion.

Lu Tong stood with a bow.

He vaguely guessed something.

Yan Ziqiu wanted him to help with money.

It's just that I'm a little worried.

It came too fast.

It was only the second time we met, and we were entrusted with important tasks.

Silver is valuable.

If you want to make quick money, you can only take it from other people's pockets.

If you dig hard, you will make people hate you.

He was a little worried.

Yan Ziqiu took the money, treated him as a scapegoat, and sold him casually.

Yan Ziqiu smiled and said: "I will come to the house often from now on. Go, I have been busy all day, go down and have something to eat."

"Thank you City Lord."

Lu Tong retreated.

Choose a clean long table and sit down.

The waiter brought a plate of roasted pork, a steamed fish, and two small plates of vegetables.

And a bottle of sake.

A moment passed.

Another maid came over and put down a cauldron of stewed venison and a pot of spiritual wine.

The pork is very fragrant, and your mouth is full of oil after one bite;

The steamed fish is very tender, the fish is good, the craftsmanship is good, and there is no fishy smell at all;

I have been thinking about money today.

I haven’t eaten for almost a day, and I wasn’t feeling hungry at first, but after a few bites of pork, I was immediately aroused.

I finished the pork and steamed fish in a few bites.

He picked up the spoon and scooped out a piece of venison.

Pink meat, as if freshly cut.

Drink it in one bite.

Tender.

Tenderer than steamed fish.

There is also a salty milky aroma.

Soon, everything on the table was swept away.

Lu Tong licked his lips without saying anything.

These dishes are much more delicious than those I have eaten in small restaurants and large restaurants in the past.

Almost comparable to crab noodles.

Unfortunately, there are too few.

Not enough to eat.

While he was reminiscing.

The fragrant breeze blew by, and a figure in red sat across from the table.

"Are you Lu Tong?"

Lu Tong took a look and said, "Who are you?"

A very beautiful female nun.

Wearing brocade clothes with sparrow patterns, they are as red as fire.

The face is heavily made up.

A strip of red rouge was applied on the upper eyelids, eyebrows, and half an inch above the eyebrows, resembling a distant mountain.

Although the posture is extraordinary.

Lu Tong had no fear in his heart.

The City Lord Mansion has been pretending to be a guard for more than a year.

I heard a lot of gossip.

Although it was our first meeting, we could vaguely guess the identity of this female nun.

Mrs.

The city lord’s is either the fifteenth or the sixteenth Taoist companion.

Born as a casual cultivator, his magic power is insignificant.

Monk, mana can be ethereal, light, convergent, condensed, etc., or even mixed, etc., but it cannot be vain.

Practice is like building a platform. If it is empty, it will easily collapse.

"You are working in the government, haven't you heard of Mrs. Shan?"

He glanced at Madam Shan, turned his head slightly and looked upward.

Yan Ziqiu sat on it.

Aware of Lu Tong's eyes, he turned to look at each other and picked up the wine glass to signal.

Lu Tong stood up, picked up the wine, and drank it all in one gulp.

After sitting down again, he said: "Mrs. Shan is looking for Lu. What do you want?"

"I heard that you have some tricks up your sleeve, and you just sent me a thousand taels of gold."

"Not bad."

"Have you been to Jieshui Lake?"

"Been there."

"Come to the Hongshan Chamber of Commerce tomorrow. I have an errand for you."

After Mrs. Shan finished speaking, she left.

Lu Tong sat motionless.

Didn't get up to see him off.

The pheasant flew into the phoenix nest and saw phoenixes all around it, so it thought it was one of its own.

Mrs. Shan, a confused person.

……

Leave the city lord's mansion.

The sky is getting dark.

The street is very lively.

During the day, there was quite a fight at the running tables in Ninety-seven restaurants.

On the streets, many vendors and shops also displayed signs congratulating the city lord and soliciting business.

Lu Tong heads to the south of the city.

Hidden Laughter Studio.

The door is open, but there is a closed sign hanging on the door.

I was busy non-stop for several hours during the day.

The hard-working cook and the boy couldn't bear it anymore, so they all went back to rest.

He walked into the store.

The shopkeeper was taking a nap on the table.

"Shopkeeper Zhou?"

When the shopkeeper got up and saw Lu Tong, he immediately smiled and said, "Lu Xingxing is here."

"I've got some money for you."

Lu Tong sat down.

Shopkeeper Zhou smiled even brighter and said, "Sit down for a moment while I make a pot of good tea."

"Okay."

Soon.

Shopkeeper Zhou came out with a set of exquisite tea sets and two plates of snacks.

"Try the cold needle tea sent from Baiye Icefield to cool down the heat."

"Thank you."

Lu Tong picked up the tea cup.

A thin layer of ice faintly condensed on the tea.

Drink in one gulp.

After drinking ice tea, the anxiety of the summer heat has subsided a lot.

"Good tea!"

Shopkeeper Zhou poured another glass, took out a piece of paper, handed it over with both hands and said: "This is all the expenses, including the ingredients and wages. Take a look."

He took the paper and took a look.

Two hundred and eighty-three taels.

There are zeros and wholes.

Press the paper on the table.

Lu Tong frowned slightly and said, "It seems a bit too much."

Shopkeeper Zhou said with an apologetic smile: "My family only does real business, and we buy the best vegetables and meats. Today's guests are very satisfied."

The reputation of Zangxiaozhai is indeed very good.

But he doesn't care whether others enjoy their meal or not, he just wants to spend less money.

Lu Tong frowned and smiled.

"Yes, it is a great joy for the city lord to marry a Taoist couple, and all the guests must be satisfied."

"That is."

Lu Tong picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip.

"In the past, when the city lord married a Taoist couple, did he set up a running water mat?"

"No, this is the first time."

Shopkeeper Zhou wanted to get the money quickly, so he flattered him and said, "Lu Xingxing, thanks to you this time, this was done beautifully!"

He put down the tea cup, shook his head and said, "I can't accomplish such a big thing by myself. Thanks to shopkeeper Zhou's help."

"We just listen to your orders and help with odd jobs."

"Haha, shopkeeper Zhou is so humble! Don't worry, I will report to the city lord tomorrow, and I will definitely mention your Hidden Laughter Studio."

"I thank you for walking!"

Shopkeeper Zhou picked up the teapot and poured another cup.

Lu Tong nodded slightly and tapped his fingers on the table.

"However, there are more than ninety restaurants in total this time. It's not okay to just mention yours for no reason~IndoMTL.com~Are you..."

He pondered for a long time.

Shopkeeper Zhou said carefully: "Walking, but what is wrong with the shop?"

"It's okay. However, the city lord marries a Taoist couple. Shouldn't you express your opinion?"

"Huh?"

Lu Tong simply spoke openly.

"You also saw today that many neighbors gave congratulatory gifts. You, Zangxiaozhai, have a big family and a big business. Not only did you not give congratulatory gifts, you also did a good business for a day. Isn't it inappropriate?"

"This... Lu Zhongxing, I was delayed all day today, so I didn't plan too much. And..."

Shopkeeper Zhou was a little anxious.

Lu Tong frowned and said, "Shopkeeper Zhou! Do you think the city lord will take advantage of your family? Three hundred taels of silver is just a hair!"

Shopkeeper Zhou was restless and sat motionless.

He continued: "To tell you the truth, everyone is the same this time. I gave him ten taels of congratulatory silver! If you don't want to, go and let's go to the city lord's mansion to get the silver."

After a moment of silence.

Shopkeeper Zhou sighed and said: "Then, how much does it mean?"

Lu Tong glanced at it and said, "It depends on how much your family cares."

"Twenty taels?"

He picked up the paper on the table, looked at it, and said, "Take the change off."

Then.

Take out two hundred taels of silver and put it on the table.

"Hey! After deducting the food money, it's not even enough for the waiter's wages! Can you walk..."

Appears accepted.

Lu Tong stood up directly and patted shopkeeper Zhou Zhou on the shoulder.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, don't just look at the present. Tomorrow, go get a plaque and write it down as the designated restaurant for the flowing banquet of the City Lord's Mansion. It's only a few dozen taels, and you can make it back in a few days."

"This...can the City Lord's Mansion agree?"

"Don't worry, if they don't agree, we'll just tear it down."

Lu Tong left Zangxiaozhai.

Go to the next house.
