Dong Qu sucked his nose and continued with red eyes, "What you see on the shelf is the spirit grass that has been gnawed by the worm. They have matured in barely two years, but they are not half as tall as the original. All of them are only the size of the little finger, which looks pitiful, but this is already the best spirit grass we can get. The spirit grass that was originally supplied to us is also kept away from us. It is even more unreliable.

Qing Zhu knew in his heart. He went to several other small shops before. Although they were not selling Lingzhi, the situation was not bad. It was nothing more than that some of them were manipulated, and some of them were raped. Some even changed the shopkeepers, which caused Qingzhu a headache.

However, except for the Jian's family who moved their hands and feet in the restaurant, the rest is simply that Monk Zhang Er can't figure out who did it. This is the most annoying.

Qing Zhu settled down and said, "The shopkeeper Dong knows, who did this kind of wicked thing?"

Dong Qu shook his head and sighed: "Apart from the Zhang family, which is competitive with us, I can't figure out who would do such a wicked thing."

Qing Zhu frowned slightly. When Lin Zhan expanded his business to Zicheng, he had already considered the situation of the local local snake Zhang family. Zhang’s family also had some Lingzhi shop business, and it was OK, but not. In addition, compared with other cities, the number and proportion of alchemists in the purple city are higher. Lin Zhan really didn’t want to give up the fat he got, so when he opened the shop, Visited the local snake Zhang's family in person.

Moreover, Lin Zhan also reached an agreement with the Zhang family that 20% of the Lin family’s profits belong to the Zhang family, and what the Zhang family has to do is to provide convenience to Youcaoju and give it protection for normal operations.

At the beginning, Lin Zhan gave the Zhang family a lot of face, and he himself was the young master of the Lin family, so Zhang Jiale had to open the door of convenience to Youcaoju on the basis of the benefits. The two sides have cooperated well after several years. Competing with each other, but relatively benign.

So Qingzhu couldn't help being surprised. He felt that the Zhang family's big business was so great that he would not easily do this kind of downfall.

So Qingzhu asked, "Youcao lives in the East Continent. There are eleven branches. This is one branch. Can you understand the general situation?"

Dong Qu's expression became even more bitter, and said, "At the beginning, there was a problem with the spirit grass here. I couldn't find a way to put out the fire for a while, so I asked Youcaoju for help elsewhere, but I didn't expect it. There were eight shops that had similar problems. They were also overwhelmed by themselves. Later, another two went down intermittently. There are even three shops that are now closed."

Qing Zhu's heart sank, secretly saying that this situation is really bad enough.

Dong Qu is an honest person. Although he is a shopkeeper, he is not shrewd enough, but loyal enough. At this time, Dong Qu even calculated the account for destroying the Lingcao field on Zhang's head. This discerning person took a look. , I knew that someone deliberately targeted Lin Zhan's Youcaoju behind the scenes.

Otherwise, if the Zhang family alone, it is impossible to secretly manipulate the secluded grass residences in different cities at the same time.

Qing Zhu asked, "Which branch is the Youcaoju that has no problem?"

Dong Qu's face became cold, and he said coldly, "It was the shop that was originally located in Danxia City. Now, that Youcaoju has moved to Xuancheng!"

Qing Zhu was taken aback, and said, "Is the shop in charge of Shi Yongtai?"

Dong Qu nodded, and said with a black face: "It's the shameless old man."

Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and said, "Why didn't you see Youcaoju when I was in Xuancheng?"

Dong Qu said: "Where is You Caoju? Shi Yongtai, a young fellow at night, has changed his name and surname and replaced You Caoju with Yongtaiju."

Qing Zhu had some impressions of Yongtaiju. This Lingcao shop was quite famous in Xuancheng, and it was in the top five. He was still passing by the door of Yongtaiju at the time. He just glanced at it from the outside and felt familiar, but Unexpectedly, this turned out to be Lin Zhan's Youcaoju.

Qing Zhu cursed: "You're shameless!"

Dong Qu hammered the table angrily and said: "At the beginning, Shi Yongtai, an old fellow, first refused our request for help, and then bluntly said that the owner is no longer there. He also found a stronger and better backer, and said Anyone who knows the current affairs is a handsome man. Only a fool would be a real stubborn and stubborn person. He even laughed at me and a few shopkeepers. I was furious, so I started with him. Unexpectedly, he had two more powerful characters under his hand, but he would I was injured directly, and I had no choice but to come back to recuperate. I raised it for two years. Before, many of my subordinates followed me. Seeing that Youcaoju couldn't support it, they all left one by one, and many of them went to the opposite side. At the Zhangjia Lingcao shop, the young people whom Master Zhu sees are all newly recruited by me. They are almost all poor children who can’t eat.”

The reason why Lin Zhan allowed Shi Yongtai to take charge of an entire Lingcao shop was to find a place where he could take care of the elderly, who was a wife and childless old servant of the Lin family. He is an ungrateful bastard, and immediately after Lin Zhan's accident, he took action on his private property.

Qing Zhu squinted his eyes and secretly said: This so-called "backer" in Shi Yongtai's mouth, he must have found it.

Qing Zhu said in a cold voice, "I will go back to Xuancheng now to find the old guy Shi Yongtai, and ask what's going on!"

Dong Qu hurriedly pulled Qingzhu's sleeves and said, "You have to be careful and don't act impulsively. The two monks beside Shi Yongtai, I personally met them. They were indeed amazing. I was also in the tempering period. Two cultivators, only one of the two cultivators moved their fingers. I didn't even see how he used his hands or what weapons he used, so I was hit hard, and even the realm fell heavily."

Qing Zhu looked at Dong Qu in surprise, and said, "The two monks, have they reached the Profound Stage?"

Otherwise, how could Dong Qu not even know how he was injured.

Dong Qu shook his head, and said: "I'm not sure about this, but the person who did it is at least the peak of the Huang-level Negative Pulse Realm!"

Qing Zhu settled down, sneered, and said: "It's okay, even if they are both of the Profound Order, I'm not afraid. I want to see with my own eyes what is so powerful about them."

Dongqu frowned when he heard this, and said, "Master Zhu, I know you are great, but you are young, only in your thirties. Those two people are over a hundred years old, and their combat experience is incredible. Rich."

Qing Zhu patted Dong Qu on the shoulder, and said with deep meaning, "Sometimes, it's not just young, but young, so you can't look good."

Dongqu: "..."

Is it possible that Qingzhu has passed a hundred years of age this year?

No, when Qing Zhu first appeared in Lin's house, he was just a little bit who would hug a bottle and spit bubbles behind Lin Zhan. He was obviously younger than Lin Zhan!

Dongqu was puzzled, and the green bamboo had already hurried away.

In the early morning of the second day, Qingzhu arrived at Xuancheng.

He didn't do anything else, and without a word, he ran towards Yongtaiju.

Yongtaiju is located in the prosperous area of ​​Xuancheng, where it belongs to the management of the Wu family, another big family in Xuancheng. There are many patrol soldiers wearing Wu family guard armor on the street, patrolling the streets with weapons.

Although it didn't take long before dawn, Yongtaiju had opened its doors to welcome guests, and many monks came to Yongtaiju to buy spirit grass and seeds.

Although Qingzhu was in a hurry on the road, he calmed down when he came to the door of Yongtaiju.

He walked unhurriedly to the door of Yongtaiju, and the young man standing at the door welcoming guests just wanted to say something to welcome the guests, and he showed a ghostly expression.

"You. Haven't you been married and gone?" The young man obviously knew Qing Zhu, and Qing Zhu also obviously knew him.

This kid used to be a small servant by Lin Zhan's name. His name is A Qi. This kid has a clever head and can do things, so he is highly regarded by Lin Zhan. He was sent to Danxia City to take charge of Youcaoju in Shi Yongtai. At that time, Lin Zhan was worried that Shi Yongtai would not be used to these things, so he asked Ah Qi to follow him.

Green bamboo skin smiled and squinted at Ah Qi without a smile, and said: "Is it a good mix? Are you all in charge?"

The clothes Ah Qi wore were obviously different from those of other people. The fabrics were much better, and their status would never be lower.

Ah Qi couldn't help laughing bitterly, took a look into the room, went down the steps and walked in front of Qing Zhu, and said, "Brother Qing, I know you must have heard a lot of wind, otherwise, with your temper, you won't resist this. Teacher Deputy Xing came over with a questioning expression."

"Your boy's account, I'll settle it with you later." Qing Zhu said fiercely: "Call out the old fellow Shi Yongtai, I have to ask carefully, why the master can't blame him, he actually did it. Things like this treachery dog!"

A Qi quickly said: "Brother Qing, don't get angry first. Don't be angry. Let's find a place first. I will tell you the situation. It will not be too late for you to make a decision. Don't be impulsive. It’s a half-and-a-half moment, and it’s not clear in a few words."

Qing Zhu looked at Ah Qi coldly and said, "I have nothing to say with you. If you don't call someone out, I will call it myself!"

A Qi's complexion changed, and said helplessly: "Brother Qing, it's not that I don't want to call it, but that Yongtai lives inside. There are two cultivators in the Yellow-Rank Broken-Blood Realm. Moreover, Shi Yongtai is no longer the one who can handle at will Shi Yongtai is now, he has now gotten the chance to become a cultivator in the tempering stage!"

Green Bamboo was unmoved, stood with his hand in his hand, and said lightly: "Let you call, just call, what nonsense?"

A Qi was stunned for a moment, an incredible color flashed in her eyes, her eyes rolled slightly, and she cautiously said: "Brother Qing, it’s not that I didn’t remind you. Be careful yourself. Okay, I’ll help you call the shopkeeper. come out."

Qingzhu slowly peeked a long thorny purple vine from his sleeve, and held it tightly in his hand. Although his hand was holding the barbs outside of the vine, it was not affected at all.

In fact, in his heart, he already felt faintly uneasy-Shi Yongtai, the old man who had stayed in the Qi Refining Stage for many years, broke through to the tempering stage in just two years?What is this terrible way?

After a while, Shi Yongtai walked out of Yongtai.

As soon as he saw Qingzhu, he showed a hypocritical smile, and said, "Oh, what kind of wind has blown the youth over, come in and sit down quickly, so we can recount our old feelings."

Qing Zhu looked at Shi Yongtai. The old guy who seemed to be old-fashioned at first seemed to be only 40 or 50 years old. His waist and eyes disappeared. Obviously, he had gained a lot of benefits.

Qing Zhu stared at him coldly, and said: "Shi Yongtai, it seems that you have been doing well recently, and it is not in vain that Young Master Zhan has worked so hard at the beginning. I am here today to take back Youcaoju for Master Zhan. You will leave Youcaoju. Give it to me, I can leave it alone for the time being."

Shi Yongtai's past two years can be described as having a good time. He has become accustomed to being a shopkeeper. He is rich and young. He has changed his mentality a lot in one day. In an imperative tone, come and talk to him.
