Sure enough, when he heard Zhao Hai, Lin Qing's face showed a smile. However, he wasn't polite to Zhao Hai. He just nodded to Zhao Hai and said, "Boss, your shop's natural Magic Staff is very good. It's even better than the one I used before. After seeing my Magic Staff, my friends all wanted to buy one, so I brought them here."
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Welcome, welcome, welcome Young Masters and Young Ladies. This is my store's honor. However, I'm not afraid to tell you that my store doesn't specialize in Magic Staffs. These Magic Staffs were picked by my brother when he was on an adventure. Because they are naturally grown, their effects are better. Therefore, if you want a Magic Staff like Young Master Lin's, then I really don't know where to find one for you. Please forgive me. Today, Young Master Lin led everyone here, so this little one will make the decision. As long as you take a fancy to a Magic Staff, this little one will give you a 10% discount. Everyone, please, pick whatever you want, the price is written on the Magic Staff."
After Zhao Hai spoke, the Young Masters and Young Ladies didn't say anything. However, they didn't lose their interest in Zhao Hai's Magic Staff. On the contrary, they were even more curious about Zhao Hai's Magic Staff. This was because a natural Magic Staff that grew in nature was much better than a man-made one.
Zhao Hai looked at the Young Masters and Young Ladies who were looking at the Magic Staff. He faintly smiled and walked to Lin Qing's side. Then he said, "Young Master Lin, please sit here and drink some tea."
Lin Qing nodded, then he followed Zhao Hai to a resting area inside the store. Zhao Hai gave Lin Qing a pot of tea. After pouring a cup for Lin Qing, he said, "I'm sorry, Young Master Lin. This little one doesn't have any good tea. You'll have to make do with it to quench your thirst. Please." Then he handed the teacup to Lin Qing.
Lin Qing nodded, then she picked up her teacup and took a sip. Then she put it down and looked at her friends in the shop. Then she said to Zhao Hai, "What's your name?"
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "This lowly one is Zhao Hai. I used to run a small business in Icefield City." Icefield City was the city that Zhao Hai had visited before. It was bigger than Aurora City, so he wasn't afraid of Lin Qing investigating him. This was because Icefield City was really big. Every day, there would be a lot of new shops opening and a lot of shops closing down. Moreover, Lin Qing wouldn't investigate him for no reason.
Lin Qing nodded and said, "Icefield City is a big city. You said that you were doing business in Icefield City, so why did you come to Aurora City? Aurora City isn't as big as Icefield City. "
Zhao Hai forced a smile and said, "I won't hide it from Young Master Lin. To put it nicely, I'm doing business in Icefield City. But to put it bluntly, my family's business is located outside of Icefield City. You should know that the houses in Icefield City are too expensive. My small grocery store couldn't afford a house there. Later on, when my elder brother got so many Natural Magic Staffs, we didn't dare to sell them in Icefield City. This is because the outside of Icefield City isn't a safe place. If we bring them into the city, then this lowly one wouldn't be able to earn much. So in the end, this lowly one thought of a way to open a shop in Aurora City. The houses here are much cheaper than in Icefield City. This lowly one has already sold the house in Icefield City. This lowly one bought this shop with the money from selling that house. But because there are a lot of things in the grocery store, this lowly one still needs to deal with some of them. Once those things are dealt with, this lowly one's elder brother will take this lowly one's parents to the countryside to buy a bigger house. Later on, this lowly one will be able to make a living by hunting. With such a small shop, this lowly one won't have to worry about food and drink in the future."
Lin Qing nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "That's a good idea. What kind of business do you want to do in the future? Do you still want to sell Magic Staffs? "
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "That's right. Magic Staffs are something that everyone needs. After selling these Magic Staffs, I have some capital in my hands. I want to use this money to buy some Magic Staffs. Because my shop is small, I don't have much capital. Therefore, I can only buy some low-level Magic Staffs and sell them to adventurers. I'm afraid that Young Master Lin won't be coming to my shop in the future."
Lin Qing thought for a moment and then said, "Your store isn't completely useless. You need to receive adventurers here. If I have something to do in the future, I can issue a mission here and you can help me find people to do it. Can you do that?" Lin Qing nodded and said, "Alright.
When Zhao Hai heard Lin Qing, he quickly replied, "This little one will do his best. But Young Master Lin should also know that the people who come to my shop are just ordinary adventurers. I don't know if I can help Young Master Lin. However, as long as Young Master Lin gives me a task, this little one will do his best."
Zhao Hai understood what Lin Qing meant. Lin Qing was a very overbearing person. If someone offended him, then he would naturally retaliate. But sometimes, this kind of retaliation couldn't be made known to others. This way, he wouldn't be able to show himself. He would need some people to help him do some shady things. And for this kind of thing, there was no one more suitable than adventurers.
It must be said that a gang like Viper Trio could also help Lin Qing do some shady things. However, Lin Qing and the others rarely looked for them. This was because if he looked for them to do shady things, then it would be the same as giving them something that could be used against him. If Viper Trio retaliated one day and told others about his shady deeds, then Lin Qing would be in a lot of trouble.
On the other hand, Adventurers were different. Adventurers would accept any kind of job, and they would issue it in the form of a quest. Moreover, there would be a middleman in the middle. This way, Adventurers wouldn't know who issued the quest. If something really happened, then as long as the middleman was dealt with, nobody would know that it was him. This was much better than looking for Viper Trio.
Although there were a lot of adventurers in the Five Spirit Realms, these adventurers didn't form a force. Adventurers' guilds didn't exist in the Five Spirit Realms. In the Five Spirit Realms, adventurers would generally go to taverns and restaurants to pick up business. This was because taverns and restaurants would also issue missions on behalf of people. Naturally, if you want to issue a mission, then you have to put the reward in the tavern first. Otherwise, the tavern wouldn't give you the mission. Otherwise, once the mission was completed, the adventurers wouldn't have a place to collect the reward. Then the tavern would be in trouble.
In the past, there would still be people who would issue missions in the Magic Staff Shop or other Magic Staff Shops. But now, there were fewer and fewer adventurers. This was because adventurers were now used to going to taverns and restaurants to receive missions. Naturally, they wouldn't go to other places to receive missions.
Adventurers' taverns had already appeared in many cities. These taverns were dedicated to issuing missions for adventurers. They were also a place for adventurers to turn in their missions.
But for someone like Lin Qing, if he had something to do, especially if he didn't want people to know about it, then he wouldn't easily hand it over to others. Therefore, it was better to put it in a place where no one would pay attention to it.
The main reason why Lin Qing wanted to make Zhao Hai a place where he could issue missions was because of Zhao Hai's cleverness. It can be said that Zhao Hai's performance was too good. This made Lin Qing think about it.
But Lin Qing was just saying this. For a young master like him, if he was in the mood, then he might want to do something. But if he wasn't in the mood, then he might forget about it in the blink of an eye. However, Lin Qing's proposal reminded Zhao Hai that the adventurers in this world weren't small. This was a big force. If used well, then it would be a big help.
When Lin Qing heard Zhao Hai's words, he nodded and said, "Rest assured, I won't let you suffer a loss. If there's such a thing in the future, then I'll give it to you." Then he didn't say anything else.
At this time, the young masters and young ladies also chose their staffs. Zhao Hai quickly went forward to greet them one by one. Moreover, according to what he said before, he gave them a 10% discount. In just a short time, half of the staffs in his shop were gone. Naturally, he also recovered a lot of money.
After the young masters and young ladies left, Zhao Hai looked at the money bags in his hand and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't think that the business of his shop would be so good. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, Zhao Hai also made a spatial equipment and put the shells inside.
After putting away the shells, Zhao Hai looked at the empty shelves in the shop and frowned. Even if he wanted to pretend, he still needed to do it well. Now that half of the shelves were empty, if he didn't replenish them, then it would be unreasonable. However, replenishing them wasn't easy, he needed to have a channel.
Zhao Hai still hadn't learned how to make staffs, so he didn't know what the formations here were like. Naturally, he had no way to make staffs here. If he used the staffs that he already knew, then he could make some staffs. However, he was afraid that the people here would find out that his staffs were different from the ones here. If that happened, then he would be exposed. Therefore, it was better to be careful.
Zhao Hai felt that his shop was lacking people. If he went to evolve, then the shop would have to close down. This was a bit unreasonable, it might even arouse people's suspicion. After all, he was now being watched. If he exposed himself, then it wouldn't be good.
After thinking about it, Zhao Hai suddenly noticed a person coming in. Upon seeing this person, Zhao Hai's eyes couldn't help but light up. He immediately went forward and cupped his fist as he said, "Third Master, how come you have time to visit the shop today? Come in and take a seat. "
The person who came was Viper Third. The reason why Viper Third came today was because he already believed that Zhao Hai was a thief. The second reason was because of Lin Qing and the others. Lin Qing's arrival today was completely out of Viper Third's expectation. Moreover, he also knew that this wasn't Lin Qing's first time here. This made Viper Third even more puzzled. He wanted to know why Lin Qing would visit the shop twice.
