Chapter 236 The Shrewd Proprietor
In the middle of the night, Li Anxian bid farewell to the little clam girl, quietly entered the fairy city, and settled down as a casual cultivator.

Early the next morning, there was an unremarkable Qi training monk in a caravan that was about to go north.

The owner of the caravan is a wealthy middle-aged monk, surnamed Jiang, who has already touched the threshold of foundation building, but has not been able to take the most critical step, and has been wandering in the realm of Qi training.

Facing Li Anxian who came to him, Jiang Dongzhu was kind and enthusiastic, but what he said was not as harmonious as it seemed on the surface: "This fellow Taoist, there is really no shortage of guards here, please ask fellow Taoist to find another job." , I am very sorry."

With words of refusal in his mouth, he still had a smile on his face, as expected of a well-rounded businessman.

Li An leisurely said that I also want to change another team, but the caravan going north is the only one right now, and it will take at least three days before the next team arrives.

With a bitter expression on his face, he begged in a low voice: "Master Jiang, I am in a hurry to go north, so please help me fellow daoists!
Jiang Dongzhu's smile didn't change, but a bit of contempt was born in his heart: Isn't he just running for his life?What kind of wolf with a big tail are you pretending to be?
It has long been no secret that the passage between the two realms has been opened for so many days, and that the Hades have made a comeback, but those who know a little about the situation are all terrified.

That's the Ming clan, thinking about the Ming clan who ravaged Xuzhou for more than 300 years when most of the test papers covered the Eastern Region!
Even though 2000 years have passed, there are still rumors of the brutal killing of the Hades among the people. Any reasonable commoner would want to stay as far away from the Hades as possible.

But people are far from their hometowns, their ancestors have lived here for generations, and they have already taken root in the fairy city. It is easy to go out, but although the world is big, where is their shelter?

In contrast, the monks who are already home from all over the world are not so worried. A large number of monks leave every day, and the once prosperous fairy city is weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Jiang Dongzhu looked embarrassed, but his tone was very hesitant: "Fellow Daoist, it's not that Jiang is dodging, there is indeed no shortage of people!"

Li Anxian bent even lower: "Please, Master Jiang, be accommodating!"

"Hey!" Proprietor Jiang gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Who made me soft-hearted? Since everyone is a monk, Jiang will help fellow Taoists this time. The profit is small, you can only bring your people, and guarantee food and food on the way, the commission is absolutely unaffordable!"

Li Anxian sighed inwardly, Grandma, how could there be so many routines for this ginger skin?

"It's okay, Mr. Jiang can help this, Li is very grateful!"

"That's good!" Jiang Dongzhu seems to have made great determination, "As long as the fellow daoist promises to help out in case of accidents on the road, Jiang will make an exception and take the fellow daoist for a ride!"

"Since that's the case, I will follow what the proprietor said!" Li Anxian readily agreed, cursing in his heart: You bastard, a profiteer!What the hell!
Jiang Dongzhu stroked his goatee, and laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "It's easy to say, easy to say... Er Zhuzi!"

"Here, Master, what's your order?" A young man who looked very capable hurried over.

Proprietor Jiang arranged with a smile: "Enter Daoyou Li for me!"

"Don't worry, Master!" Er Zhuzi agreed, and bent over to back out of the way, "Master Li, please!"

Li Anxian almost said thank you, but managed to hold back the words.

It is the basic common sense in this world that the immortal teacher is superior, and his habit of thanking whomever he sees is a strange thing here.

Thank you for saying this, and it is guaranteed to attract the attention of countless people.

The most important point of this trip is to hide your identity, and you will be suspicious before you start, so why not laugh at the big teeth of those who know?

He changed his arrogance when he faced Master Jiang, raised his face and hummed, he didn't look at people at all, and played a little monk with eyes on the top of his head in a superb manner.

It's obviously a morbid value, but everyone takes it for granted, it's useless!

After walking a few steps, an unfamiliar voice came from behind, soft and somewhat hoarse: "This proprietor, can you take the servant's house for a ride?"

Li Anxian turned around curiously, just in time to see Jiang Dongzhu's embarrassed expression: "This fellow Taoist, Jiang has no shortage of guards here, and there is nothing he can do to help..."

Xiao Lizi stopped slowly and looked at Jiang Dongzhu with interest, intending to hear what other reasons he could give.

Proprietor Jiang wasn't embarrassed at all. No matter what the female cultivator said, she always refused to compromise. It wasn't until the female cultivator thought about quitting that she suddenly changed her mind and agreed.

Li Anxian couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he really caught a good fish!
He didn't rush to leave at all, and stayed here to watch Jiang Dongzhu's performance. In less than half an hour, Jiang Dongzhu had accepted more than a dozen monks, and at least he had five or six levels of Qi training.

Comrade Xiao Li couldn't help admiring, this business is worth it!
Obviously the caravan still needs a lot of people, but this Jiang Dongzhu put on a face that I am embarrassed and I can't help it. He came and went with just a few words, and so many people were tricked by him and turned into a caravan. His free guard, he is so shrewd!
But after thinking about it, there is nothing wrong with it. While rushing to leave, while having resources, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong.

Think about it a little deeper, businessmen are naturally chasing profits.

Xiancheng itself does not have any competitive products, but under the rule of Qingyao, the tax revenue is lower than that of the government of Quguo, so it has gradually become the largest freight transfer station in Xuzhou.

But the biggest problem in transit is that the goods you bring when you come here will definitely sell for a good price, but you may not be able to find suitable goods on the return trip, and profits are often greatly affected.

Based on the principle of thrift, it is no surprise to find ways to keep costs down.

In this world, there is no labor law.

At three poles in the sun, Jiang Dongzhu took in a total of more than 30 monks, and finally felt that it was almost done, and announced his departure with unsatisfied intentions.

Someone had already brought the short-backed turtles that had been hired in advance, Jiang Dongzhu first invited two extremely indifferent expressions from the nearby house, Jianji who could reject people thousands of miles away without making a sound, and first let them go. On top of the turtle's back, it occupies the most central position, and then greets other people to get on the car... Uh no, get on the turtle.

In the middle of the turtle's back is a sunshade built on a wooden frame. Although it is simple, it can be regarded as VIP treatment on the turtle's back.

Li Anxian obediently stepped on the escalator and climbed up the turtle... This is really awkward for his grandma!

He casually found a fairly comfortable position and sat down, heaving a long sigh of relief.

Others also sat down one after another. Jiang Dongzhu yelled, indicating that everyone had already got on the turtle. The turtle owner who was sitting behind the turtle's head opened his voice and agreed. He didn't know what method he used, and the short-backed turtle slowly stood up. , under the control of the turtle master, he stepped on the road back to the north.

　At three o'clock, help the children with their homework, the chickens are flying like dogs!
