My attribute of fast time travel is upside down

Chapter 185 The King of the Mountain's Cheap Lady (45)

"Tsk tsk tsk, I have to say that the boss and the staff of this store are quite good at being human." Xiao Liu watched the whole process and couldn't help but praise.

"They are all ordinary fruits, not worth a lot of money, but they are delivered so respectfully, which makes people feel at ease. And after all, they are given for nothing. People have the mentality of being greedy for petty gains. They always feel that they have earned something. .”

"Compared with other stores that don't do business, as long as the price is reasonable, everyone will remember this place well, and when they want to eat, they will naturally give priority to this place."

Qi Xue listened, and secretly looked at the expressions of the people around her, sure enough, all of them showed satisfied expressions, and many of them couldn't hide their thoughts, with expressions of earning money.It can be seen that Xiao Liu's analysis is thorough.

After a long while, delicious dishes were brought to the table from the back kitchen. Although there was no exquisite arrangement and exquisite color matching, the fragrance of the dishes was overflowing, and everyone was greedy and made a fuss at the Wu Zang Temple, and they couldn't wait to serve them all. Qi, picked up the rice bowl and ate with big mouthfuls.

Qi Xue also ate with relish, she was indeed hungry after driving for half a day.

After eating and drinking enough to settle the bill, everyone left the store under the warm greeting of Xiaoer.

During the meal, Shunzi claimed to be a traveling merchant and wanted to buy goods, so she inquired with Xiao Er about nearby grain stores with good prices and good supply, and gave a generous tip.

Xiao Er smiled from ear to ear, and naturally knew everything, and explained everything he knew, very enthusiastically.

According to the information provided by Xiaoer, Shunzi divided his subordinates into teams, set tasks and gave money to each of them, and agreed on the place and time of meeting, then waved his hand and told everyone to disperse and go about their own business.

Qi Xue followed one of the teams and left, while everyone was looking for the shop, she slowed down and left the team quietly.

The destination of Shunzi's trip was an outer town, and she didn't pass through Lai City. She had no way to pass the information directly to City Lord Hai.Simply, she found some useful information in Hai Lianyi's memory, the location of City Lord Hai's hidden stake stronghold outside.

After all, he is the lord of a city, so he still has some means. There are many such hidden stakes in the surrounding towns and even further away to collect intelligence from the outside world for him.

As long as she finds the hidden stake and hands them the note, the news will naturally reach the city lord's father.

The reason why Hai Lianyi knew this was thanks to the enlightenment of City Lord Hai, which was also related to the cultural heritage passed down from generation to generation in Lai City.

City Lord Hai has only one son and one daughter under his knees, and he placed high hopes on them, and taught them to treat them equally.Hai Lianyi's elder brother is not talented enough, and his temper is not hot enough, so Haicheng Lord carefully cultivated Hai Lianyi, hoping that the two brothers and sisters can support each other and protect Laicheng in the future.

This differs somewhat from the initially accepted information.According to the initial information, Hai Lianyi is the only daughter of City Lord Hai. She grew up pampered and doted on since she was a child.In fact, this is not the case, these are all illusions deliberately created by City Lord Hai.

Secretly, he carefully cultivated Hai Lianyi, handed over part of the hidden power to her, and trained her to be his son's right-hand man.

City Lord Hai placed high hopes on Hai Lianyi, so naturally he would not let her marry, so he made a lot of choices, and wanted to choose an excellent son-in-law for her, so that he could assist his son together.

Hai Lianyi has been assertive since she was a child. She is competitive and demands the best in everything, even when it comes to choosing a husband.She looked down on the person chosen by the Lord of Shanghai, so she had a falling out with the Lord of Hai.

City Lord Hai insisted on going his own way, locked Hai Lianyi up, and decided to forcibly make the raw rice and cook the cooked rice.Just when he was preparing for the wedding, Hai Lianyi ran away quietly.At this point, it is almost the same as the original plot. Hai Lianyi wants to leave Laicheng to wander outside and get lost in the mountains and forests.

Although she is scheming and cunning, she has no talent for practicing strange arts, so she doesn't know anything about the fog mechanism. In addition, Haicheng Lord only taught her scheming since she was a child, and did not teach her self-defense skills such as wielding knives and guns. Into the mountains, no one rescued, the result is obvious.She was indeed eaten to death by wild beasts in the mountains.

These materials were obtained by her triggering the hidden plot, which was triggered by a jade pendant worn by Hai Lianyi.

The jade pendant was discovered by Qi Xue when she took a bath by herself after she was able to move. A red string was tied around her neck, hidden under layers of clothes, very concealed.After carefully looking at the jade pendant, she found that a small part of it was engraved with the seal that belonged to the Hai family. At this time, the system suddenly reminded that there was a hidden plot.

The plot shows that this piece of jade pendant was specially made by Haicheng Lord, and there are only two pieces in the world, which were given to his sons and daughters respectively.The jade pendant is imprinted with the unique seal of the Hai family. Seeing the jade pendant is like seeing someone. All the forces under the Hai family will recognize it and can dispatch it at will.

In Hai Lianyi's memory, there is also a hidden stake of the Lord Hai in this small town.

She first hid in the dark and waited for a group of people to go away, and then asked passers-by on the street to determine the specific location of the hidden pile.

She asked as she walked, and with the guidance of passers-by, she soon came to the store in her memory, which was a small teahouse.

Throughout the ages, places like teahouses and Qinlou Chuguan have mixed fish and dragons, and they are the easiest places to inquire about information, and they are also the bunkers for most hidden piles.

Qi Xue strode in, Xiao Er came up to greet him with sharp eyes: "Guest officer, please, one or wait for someone?"

While talking, he led her to the empty seat next to her.

Qi Xue waved her hand, "I'm not busy, I'm here to find your shopkeeper today, to settle the tea money from the previous few days."

Xiaoer paused, but quickly adjusted, quickly looked at her a few times, and resumed a polite smile, but no longer directed, but made a gesture of invitation, "Please come inside."

Qi Xue looked along, it was the direction of the counter.Behind the counter stood a slightly fat middle-aged man, who should be the shopkeeper.

She nodded with a smile, walked past Xiaoer.

At the counter, the shopkeeper saw her coming, raised a welcoming smile, and asked: "Guest officer, this is it?"

"I'm here to settle the tea money on credit a few days ago." Qi Xue was still just dealing with Xiaoer's remarks.

The shopkeeper's reaction was similar to that of the waiter's. He paused subconsciously, squinted his eyes, and looked at her sharply. After a few seconds, he said, "I'm afraid the guest officer may have made a mistake. The store operates on a small budget and never pays on credit."

Qi Xue's face remained unchanged, she still smiled, and said: "The shopkeeper is forgetful, this tea is not from the shop, we drank it together when we met outside a few days ago, did you forget?"

The shopkeeper's face changed slightly, as if he was a little surprised, his eyes paused slightly as he looked at her, and his brows furrowed unconsciously.In the eyes of outsiders, it really seems to be thinking about memories.

In fact, he was evaluating the identity of the person in front of him.

The conversation they had just now was actually a signal for the connection between this teahouse and other secret intelligence-gathering posts.

"Tea money from the past few days" alludes to the transfer of intelligence information collected in recent days.

The purpose of replying "never pay on credit" is to identify whether the person who comes is our own, so as not to confuse with some customers who really come to check out.It is said that there is no credit, but the customer really has no money, and you have no choice but to give him credit, so this sentence is also very necessary.

In the subsequent "meeting outside and drinking tea together", the visitors once again revealed their identities, implying that they have a relationship with each other in private.
