People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 274: The Strange Salesman of Wangsheng Hall - Zhongli

On the northwest side of Yujingtai, in the living room of Lin Feng’s residence.

A young man with dark hair wearing a tan robe with scale-like patterns on the ends of the garment.
After taking a sip of the tea in his hand, he put down the teacup with satisfaction and, as always, expressed his high recognition of the quality of the tea.

——This is Zhongli, who has just rested for two days and has eliminated his mental fatigue.

He doesn't come here often as a guest on weekdays.

After tasting the tea, he sensed the current position of the Chilong cub and said with a smile:
"It seems that you have already decided where to send the Chilong cub?"

"——That's right. After all, the traveler has always been in a state of turmoil.

If you want to grow up quickly, this is indeed a good place to go.”

A few days ago, I witnessed with my own eyes the demise and rebirth of another ancient demon god on the land of Liyue.

Zhongli still paid attention to this opponent who had once impressed him.

——After all, the rest of the demons were either killed or suppressed.
This kind of thing, which was torn into several pieces and suppressed for thousands of years, is still not completely dead. It is unique.

".It's not that complicated actually. It's just that if that little guy stays by my side all the time, he won't have any chance to show his talents.

But nowadays, it definitely has no shortage of experiences to participate in various events.”

Thinking of the little yellow-haired boy's ability to stir up trouble that astonished him,

Lin Feng was very curious about what changes would happen if he added a front-row meat shield and one-time output to the team.

——Let’s not talk about the combat aspect, at least with this output capability that is enough to destroy the terrain,
It is unlikely that the little yellow-haired boy will have to spend a long time to solve a broken wooden door like in the game.

"——Zhongli! Are you planning to skip work without a reason again?!"

"——In the past month, I can count the number of times you have come to the Hall of the Dead on one hand.

How can I convince others to use public funds to help you pay off your debts?
——No matter what, you have to accompany me to the Adventurer's Association to promote business today, otherwise I will let the owners of "Mingxingzhai" and "Xiguju" come to you personally!"

"."

After finishing talking about Chi and the traveler, Zhongli originally wanted to continue tasting tea.

But after hearing these angry voices outside the door,
Lin Feng noticed that the old man in front of him froze, and his whole body exuded a visible "headache" feeling.

——Obviously, he had been absent from work too many times recently, and was finally visited by his own hall master.

".Ahem, the number of customers at Wangsheng Hall has indeed decreased recently.

The New Year is coming soon, so it is understandable that Master Hu wants to boost sales."

"——Anyway, there is nothing urgent recently. I still need to practice on my own for a while on the problem I pointed out last time.
Otherwise, old man, you should go and help Master Hu to promote some discounted packages.
How about you help me check tonight or tomorrow to see if there is anything missing?"

Thinking of the large number of patients who have come to Bubulu recently,

Lin Feng, who knew best how ambitious Master Hu was, had actually anticipated this scene and directly offered suggestions to Zhongli in front of him.

——In the past month, the old man has been running around with me most of the time.

It is very rare that Master Hu, whose performance has been declining, has waited until today to come and arrest people.

".Well, that's all we have to do."

".Recently, I really haven't been able to spare the time to accompany this child in the hall.
This is also my negligence. Let me accompany the hall master to have some fun today as a small compensation."

Zhongli sighed, and recalled that he had promised the previous head of the Wangsheng Hall to help look after the younger generation.

He could only get up and go out to accompany his eccentric boss to promote her newly designed discount package.

——Although he actually liked his own master who was particularly tolerant of slacking off, and he also enjoyed getting along with this old friend in the future,

But he really couldn't handle this kind of door-to-door sales business.

Zhongli was dragged away by Hall Master Hu.
After Lin Feng fed Xiao Bai,
Without much delay, I went to the dream space alone and did some intensive training on the problems I had before.

This wasn't the first time he had done this since his return.
In fact, in order to master the power of the rock as soon as possible, Lin Feng would practice in the consciousness space whenever he had time.

It was so positive that even I couldn't believe it.

——I can only say that this experience of being able to clearly feel the progress and catch up with other people's progress that has taken hundreds or thousands of years in a very short period of time is really addictive.

With my own learning ability greatly enhanced and a complete training system provided by my predecessors,
He constantly acquires new skills, and feels the joy of watching the numbers in the game continue to rise:

A perfect mentor, excellent talent and learning ability, a strong memory that will never forget once you have mastered it, and a final reward that is extremely valuable and highly desired.
——After so many factors are added together,

Lin Feng could only say that if he was not so active, he might have been infected by Mond's lie-down virus.

".Hey, hey, hey, don't leave so quickly, don't you really want to consider learning about our latest promotions?"

"——Not only limited to the old promotions like buy one get one free, but also family packages with higher discounts."

"Um, I remember you are the head of the Wangsheng Hall, right? Sorry, I really don't need it."

"."

On the other side,
After being rejected again, Walnut was not discouraged at all, and continued to enthusiastically stop people near the Adventurer's Association to sell his products.

Zhongli, who was pulled out by Hu Tao, faced this unique "business expansion".
He always had a serious expression on his face, standing silently behind his own hall master like a pillar, and it can only be said that he played the role of making up the numbers perfectly.

Although his expression seemed as calm as usual,
But if there were someone familiar here, he would probably be able to easily read a sense of "helplessness" from this.

I sighed in my heart,

Zhongli, who rarely gets a headache, even felt for a moment that his own hall master might have been born to torment him.

But just when he thought things couldn't get any worse,
Kurumi looked at the blonde girl walking towards him, her plum-red eyes suddenly lit up.
He directly pushed the guest official who had been slacking off behind him out with both hands and assigned him a task:

". He was well-dressed, had strange companions, and was obviously wealthy. Most importantly, he was a stranger!"

"——Zhongli, I'm going to go to the Adventurer's Guild to talk to Sister Lan. I'll leave these two to you!"

"——It's a rare opportunity to meet a high-quality client, so don't be lazy this time!"

Although I couldn't personally meet this client who looked very promising because I had booked the time in advance,
But Hu Tao still stared seriously at this guest who looked young but had an inexplicable old man temperament.

".good."

Zhongli, who had already caught fish all the way, could not stand the offensive of his own master's eyes.
Although I didn't want to meet this traveler with this first impression,
But after hesitating for a long time, he finally sighed and reluctantly uttered the word "OK" from his mouth.

"——Wow, what a great harvest! What a great harvest!"

"——Is Paimon really that powerful?! Onigiri is awesome!" Paimon, who had just returned from hunting monsters in the wild with Ying, accepted a daily commission.
Looking at the monster materials that I had obtained "personally" after teaming up with Fantuan, I felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment:

——Different from the previous battle mode,
After Fantuan joined, Ying was too busy to command the little guy during the battle, but it was inconvenient to let the inexperienced Fantuan fight alone.
In order to avoid the two sides interfering with each other or destroying the monster materials,
Paimon directly formed a team with Fantuan as the commander.

——The general process is that the little guy first provides a shield for Paimon as protection, and then, under the guidance of his predecessor, he launches a dimensionality reduction attack on the monsters that are the target.

After all, Fantuan was originally a Chilong who was quite good at defense.

Even though the authority is not complete yet, the shield created is still much stronger than the half-baked Ying.
After seeing the Ruins Guard attacking for a long time but unable to cause any damage to the shield,
Paimon, who had to hide when he encountered a battle before, suddenly expanded like a white balloon that had been fully inflated:
".Hehe, we actually have more monster materials than Ying, Onigiri and I are really amazing!"

"——Today, as the founding anniversary of the Paimon Squad, I decided to take Onigiri to the Wanmin Hall for a big meal!"

"Gulu!"

Although I don't know why throwing the food I don't eat to my senior makes her so happy,
But when he heard that there was going to be a big meal soon, the little guy still shook his head happily.

fluorescent:"."

It’s true that “you two” are very powerful, but is it really okay for you to be so arrogant, Paimon?

Just when Ying felt powerless to complain about the personality of her guide,
An equally helpless word also reached her ears:

".Hello, are you interested in learning about the business of Wangshengtang?"

".Our leader recently launched a new promotion"

Ying realized someone was talking to her and looked up.
Then he spotted a young man with golden eyes who was dressed in unique clothes and gave off an aura of 'reluctance'.

".Wangshengtang? I remember that should be the institution in Liyue responsible for funerals, right?"

"Uh Ying, do we have such a need?"

Before she could respond, Paimon, who had finally gotten over his pride, asked with some confusion.

"No, I don't think so."

Ying shook her head.

".Also, the words 'Wangshengtang promotion' and 'Wangshengtang promotion' don't seem to be related. How can this be a promotion?"

Paimon became more and more confused.

".Buy one get one free, family packages, pre-order for newborns, pick up in seven countries."

Zhongli originally thought that it was just a token of his appreciation and he didn't want to take up the issue.

After noticing Kurumi's eyes fixed on him,

I sighed deeply in my heart, feeling that I had never suffered such a pain in my life.

"."

"."

Under Walnut's gaze, I reluctantly introduced the discounted set meal.
The three people, including Zhongli, fell into deep silence for a moment when faced with these very "trendy" funeral words.

"Um, sorry, I don't think Ying and I need it."

".Anyway, please go find someone else."

I felt as if I had been struck by some indescribable mental shock.

Although I admire the optimistic attitude of the people of Liyue,
But Paimon finally rejected these discount packages that sounded scary.

To her surprise,
After Ying and I refused, the salesman in front of us seemed to be relieved as if a burden had been lifted off our shoulders:

"."

"——Thank you for your cooperation. If possible, please don't take this matter to heart."

"——Then I'll take my leave now."

After saying goodbye with a sense of relief, the "strange salesman" turned and left while Ying and Paimon looked puzzled.

"."

"."

".I don't know why, but that person just now gave me a very reluctant feeling.

It seems that working in the Hall of Rebirth is not easy either.”

"Indeed. But we probably won't meet again. Let's go eat first."

Originally, when Ying first saw the other person,

Because of the divine eye on the opponent's waist and some kind of combat intuition, he subconsciously thought that this might be a very powerful person.
But after this embarrassing sales pitch,

She could only helplessly admit that she was probably mistaken:
——This person definitely can’t be some powerful person, right?

He should just be a somewhat weird salesman.

"Haha, hahaha——"

“No, let me laugh for a while.”

"A weird salesman from the Wangsheng Hall? How distorted is this first impression of the old man?"

In the corner of Chihuyan Street,
After training for a while, Lin Feng, who was planning to come to Wanmin Hall to see Guoba, heard that Xiangling had returned.
I never expected that I would encounter such a rare scene.

For a moment, I almost died of laughter.

——Compared to the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall who was full of pretentiousness and seemed to know everything in the original plot,

Zhongli's contact with the little yellow-haired boy this time was extremely unlucky because of what Master Hu did.

——If this gets exposed one day and his ruling identity is revealed, the old man will be so embarrassed!
——I guess in the future, even if Ying suspects the old man walking on the roadside,
No one would think that this novice salesman from Wangsheng Hall would be the god of Liyue!
After laughing for a while,

Feeling that it was time to get down to business, Lin Feng shook his head and with difficulty put the matter temporarily into his heart.

——Because the control requirements of the Rock Power should be met soon,

He planned to combine the problems of Gui Liyuan and Guoba and solve them together.
In order to confirm Guoba's current condition, he walked out of the alley, followed by Little Yellow Hair and Paimeng, and stepped into the gate of Wanmin Hall.
