"Third Leader, the Wei Clan's Immortal Herb Hall is just ahead." Although Jiang Qingcheng was rather fat, he ran happily like a fat rabbit.
"Coming." Ye Kong followed over to take a look, and saw that in front of him, there was a large three-story building, with two golden signboards on top.
Between the third and second floor hung the words "Fine Herbs". Between the second and first floor hung the words "Wei Clan".
Ye Kong was overjoyed. This place was indeed much larger than the previous one. The Nether Soul Immortal Grass must have been found.
"It's here." Ye Kong walked to the front of the building in a few steps. Just as he was about to enter, he saw a group of people running out from inside.
"Tear it down, tear it all down." Under the command of an old man, two young and skinny youths nimbly jumped up and took down the two signboards. They threw them on the ground and broke into pieces.
Ye Kong was stunned. He hurriedly asked the old man, "Senior, this is …"
The old man said, "You're here to buy immortal grass? Then you don't have to come anymore. We just bought this shop. From now on, we'll mainly be selling salt crystals. "
Ye Kong was really depressed. F * ck your ancestors. Do you think it's easy for me to buy immortal grass? I finally found the place, but it changed its appearance.
Ye Kong hurriedly asked again, "Sir, I'm sorry. I also wanted to ask where this Wei Clan's Immortal Herb Hall has moved to. It's because I urgently need an immortal grass that only his family has."
"Oh, urgently needed. A life-saving one." The old man was quite a nice person. He ignored his subordinates' questions and said, "I don't know where the Wei Clan's Immortal Herb Hall has moved to. However, I do know where the Wei Clan's house is."
Then, the old man gave Ye Kong a detailed explanation and pointed out the direction. Only then did Ye Kong thank him and leave.
Seeing the old man finish speaking, the shop assistant beside him asked, "Steward Liu, the shop is short of manpower. However, we just opened. If we hire too many people, food and accommodation will be a problem."
The old man said, "Just hire the locals."
The waiter smiled bitterly and said, "We are only hiring for a short period of time, and the people of the White Hair Region are tough. It will not be easy to fire them after hiring them, and they might even get into trouble."
The old man had probably never been a shopkeeper before. When he heard this, he frowned and rubbed his hands. He muttered to himself, "I've never run a business before. Alas, what should I do? Let's wait for the young lady to come back first."
In fact, Ye Kong had already taken a few steps forward, but thinking about the old man's enthusiastic guidance, he couldn't help but want to repay him, so he stepped back and said, "Sir, I actually have an idea."
The old man took a look and saw that it was the young man from before. He thought to himself, 'I'm already so old but I don't have a way, but you have a way?'
However, since the other party had taken the initiative to help him, he was too embarrassed to refuse. There was no harm in listening, so he said, "Little brother, speak."
Ye Kong said, "Actually, you can hire hourly workers. Hmm, hourly worker. It was a short-term employment that was paid by the hour. As for the price, it could be slightly higher than long-term employment. This way, people will be willing to come, and you won't have to bear the burden of food and accommodation. If you don't want to use it, you don't have to. It's very suitable for you. "
There was no such thing as hourly workers in this world. Therefore, the old man calculated in his heart for a long time before slapping his thigh and shouting, "This is a great idea! Little brother is so talented, why not … "
Halfway through his words, the old man realized that the young man had already left quietly. The old man sighed. "He didn't leave his name. Otherwise, it would be good to let him be my assistant."
Ye Kong didn't want to get any benefits. He just wanted to repay the old man. After he finished speaking, he left with Jiang Qingcheng.
After leaving the bustling crowd, he walked into a secluded alley. After walking for a short distance, he saw a deep courtyard. At this moment, the courtyard door was wide open, and an old man was laboriously moving a broken piece of the door out. Ye Kong looked into the courtyard and saw that it was a mess, as if it had been smashed and robbed.
Ye Kong hurriedly went up to help the old man move the door out. The old man couldn't help but thank him.
Ye Kong asked, "May I ask if this is the Wei Family's Immortal Herb Hall, Wei Shuhui's house?"
The old man nodded and said, "This old man is Wei Shuhui. Little friend, you are …"
Ye Kong saw that the old man's clothes could be considered rich, but his face was miserable. He looked like a boss. He opened his mouth and said directly, "I want to buy some immortal herbs."
Wei Shuhui smiled and said, "Little friend, you are warm-hearted. What immortal herbs do you need? Although this old man has quit, there are still many immortal herbs at home. If you don't need much, this old man will give them to you for free."
Ye Kong said, "How can I accept that? Actually, I want to ask for a Nether Soul Immortal Herb."
Hearing about the Nether Soul Immortal Herb, Wei Shuhui smiled bitterly and said, "If little friend came a day earlier, of course I can give it to little friend, but …"
Ye Kong had a bad feeling and hurriedly asked for the reason. Wei Shuhui said, "Little friend, you will know when you come in."
Following Wei Shuhui into the small courtyard, they passed through the hall and walked to the backyard. Ye Kong was surprised to find that the backyard turned out to be an immortal herb garden. However, the Immortal Grass Garden had already been trampled into a complete mess. Wei Shuhui brought Ye Kong to a stalk of Immortal Grass that had been trampled on. He raised his hand and pointed at it, saying: "This is the Nether Soul Immortal Grass that you were looking for, but now …"
Wei Shuhui shook his head and sighed.
Seeing the immortal herb trampled to a pulp, Ye Kong was annoyed and asked, "Who did this?"
Wei Shuhui smiled bitterly and said, "This old man has offended the Zhai family. Not only can I not continue my business, but even my home has been robbed. I can only transfer the shop. I'm afraid little friend's request can't be satisfied."
Ye Kong was annoyed. It seemed that the Zhai family was not a good person. However, with his strength, he could not fight against the Zhai family. He could only comfort Wei Shuhui.
Wei Shuhui said, "There are very few people who need this Nether Soul Immortal Herb and it is difficult to cultivate. I'm afraid little friend will have to go to the White Hair Domain to find it."
Coming out of the Wei family, Ye Kong felt a little powerless. He thought, could it be that the heavens did not want me to obtain the Nether Soul Immortal Herb? It was not easy to find one, but it was just trampled to a pulp.
However, he thought in his heart: No matter what, no matter how dangerous it is, this Nether Soul Immortal Herb must be found!
"Little friend, little friend …" Suddenly, someone called from behind. Ye Kong, who was in deep thought, did not notice. However, he was pulled by Jiang Qingcheng, "Third Master, someone is calling you."
Ye Kong looked back and saw that it was Steward Liu.
"It's Steward Liu. Is there something else?" Ye Kong asked in confusion. Just now, he had already told Steward Liu about the hourly work method. The two should not have crossed paths.
Steward Liu stroked his white beard and said with a smile, "This old man is Liu Wei. I am the steward of this salt shop that is about to open. I have just come to Planet Salt Head with my family's Young Miss to do business. My family's Young Miss especially likes to make friends with righteous and capable people, so this old man would like to invite you to my shop for a chat. "
Ye Kong had not found the Nether Soul Immortal Herb, so how could he have the time to drink tea and chat? He hurriedly waved his hand, "Thank you, Steward Liu, for your kindness. However, I am not familiar with this place. As for righteous and capable people, I am just an ordinary person. Forget it."
However, Steward Liu was very enthusiastic. He pulled Ye Kong into the shop and said, "This old man has never heard of this young friend's hourly work method. Just based on this, I can tell that young friend is very smart. This little one naturally has to send a gift to thank you."
When Fatty Jiang Qingcheng heard that there was still a gift, he also persuaded, "Third Master, we have nothing to do anyway. Just a cup of tea will do. One more friend means one more path."
Unable to say anything, Ye Kong could only be pulled and pushed by them to the second floor of the shop. There was an elegant quiet room where a waiter served immortal tea.
The Young Miss that Steward Liu mentioned was busy and was not currently in the shop, so Steward Liu and Ye Kong chatted. As they chatted, Ye Kong did not dare to say that he was someone who ascended from the lower realm. Otherwise, it would cause another farce. When Ye Kong only said that he was a salt bandit from Planet Salt Head, Steward Liu was not surprised.
After all, being a bandit in the White Hair Region was not very shameful. Instead, it was a very promising and challenging career. Not only was Steward Liu not surprised, he even smiled and invited Ye Kong to sell the salt crystals he robbed to them in the future. He promised to give them a good price.
Ye Kong only nodded slightly. Actually, he did not care about this kind of thing. Everything was handled by Gao Wenpeng and Ni Yuqing, so he did not want to interfere. However, from the way he talked, Ye Kong could feel that this Manager Liu Wei wasn't simple. Although he didn't flaunt his wealth, his tone was very natural, giving people a feeling of magnanimity. Moreover, he seemed to be quite knowledgeable.
"To go to Planet East Edge, where the Eastern Immortal Emperor Residence is located, the fastest way is to go to the starfield controlled by the Middle Fang Immortal Emperor. This route is the shortest. However, the area controlled by the Middle Fang Immortal Emperor is too chaotic and not very safe. The best way is to go through the Northern Immortal Emperor Domain. Although it will take some time, it is very safe. "
Liu Wei was indeed knowledgeable. He spoke with confidence and composure. Let alone Ye Kong, even Jiang Qingcheng was fascinated by these things.
Jiang Qingcheng asked, "Steward Liu, what you said is correct, but have you been to these places before?"
Liu Wei smiled and said, "Of course I have. We are a southern … merchant, we can go anywhere."
Hearing this, Ye Kong's heart was moved. If he had a good relationship with this southern merchant, he might be able to borrow their power to go to the Eastern Immortal Emperor Residence in the future …
While they were talking, a person rushed up downstairs and said, "Uncle Liu, where is the person who is proficient in business?"
Ye Kong looked up, only to see a lady dressed in black walking up the stairs. The lady was not old, looking eighteen or nineteen years old. She was tall and had a beautiful face. Ye Kong thought, I finally see a beauty. I have not seen such a beautiful girl since I came to the Immortal World for so long.
However, Ye Kong was just thinking about it. This woman was already a high-grade Golden Immortal. Ye Kong had to call her a Heavenly Immortal.
Ye Kong and the others immediately stood up. Liu Wei also stood up and was about to introduce her.
However, the girl ran directly to Ye Kong's side and said, "Oh, it's you." After saying that, he raised one of his legs and stepped on the chair beside Ye Kong. He then raised his hand and casually picked up a cup of tea from the table. He didn't even ask who it was and directly took a sip. Then, she spat it out and cursed, "Why is it so hot!"
Ye Kong and Jiang Qingcheng were flabbergasted. They thought to themselves, "Is this the so-called Miss?" Why does she look more like a bandit than us?
Even Steward Liu Wei was a little embarrassed. He hurriedly said, "My lady is a passionate person. She doesn't care about trifles when she wants to do big things."
Ye Kong thought, Her appearance is in line with the requirements of a fairy, but her behavior … is too careless. You can drink tea, but you're stepping on a chair. Is there such a lady?
