Chapter three hundred and eighty second showing weakness

After Li Lijun hinted that she was not short of money, Grandpa Qiu San's face was still calm, but Qiu Xiaoji already showed a look of joy.

The owner is not short of money and does not expect the store's business to prosper, which means that their grandparents and grandchildren will have a much easier life in the future. They only need to complete their assigned work, and they can focus on themselves at other times. In this way, they can't afford food and clothing.

They have no worries and have a place where they can practice safely. This kind of life is good enough for them.

Although Grandpa Qiu San had no special expression, he had already asked Li Lijun very carefully about the approximate price of each material in her purchase list.

This also implies that she needs to leave a sum of money in the store for the guys to use when purchasing supplies. If she does not stay in the store for a long time, this spiritual stone must be set aside no matter what.

Li Lijun had no objection to this. She first gave Grandpa Qiu San a small bag of spiritual stones, probably only about a hundred. The quantity was not large, but it should be enough for two days.

Her shop has just been packed up, and it is impossible to open it today, at least until tomorrow. But now it is already halfway through the opening time of this quarter's market, and there are only two or three days left for the new shop to open for trial operation.

How much business can the store do? This spiritual stone is probably enough. But she will bring back some more spiritual stones later. After the market is closed, there will be material transactions between various stores in the market. It may take some time to officially open the store.

Just wait till next quarter.

But it didn't matter. What Li Lijun cared about more was how much this small shop and the two hired monks could help her collect the supplies she needed.

After leaving the spirit stone and explaining the price, Li Lijun helped adjust the layout of the store before she left.

The Qiu family's grandparents still had to clean up the accommodation upstairs, and she had to go back to Huxian County. When she went out earlier, she made an agreement with Erhong to go back to the rented courtyard to discuss follow-up matters. Now that she has bought it

It's a small shop, so naturally I want to bring Er Hong here for a tour.

Li Lijun went back to the backyard first, closed the small door that connected the alley between the two shops and led directly to the outer street, hung up a new lock, and then left the shop door. The shop owners of several nearby shops

With just a peek of the head, you can see her leaving the Cultivation Fair, and everyone is talking about her in private.

Although the shops in the Xiuzhen Market will inevitably change owners every few years, only a few "time-honored brands" can last for tens or even hundreds of years, but Li Lijun can spend huge sums of money to buy them at such a young age.

It is still rare to see a new shopkeeper with a property. Such shopkeepers are usually either from a good family background or have an extraordinary status. Anyway, ordinary monks cannot afford to offend her. Several neighbors are not familiar with her, and they think that she may have to deal with her in the future.

After spending a long time with such a mysterious master, I couldn't help but whisper.

After a while, some people went to other familiar stores to ask about Li Lijun's origins and temperament. In the entire Xiuzhen Market, not every store had dealt with Li Lijun, but most people saw the little girl.

I am familiar with Madam Wang, Shopkeeper Zheng and Taoist Xuanying. These three are all well-established people. How can I be an ordinary casual cultivator if I am on good terms with them? How can an ordinary casual cultivator follow Ge from Zhenxian Temple?

What about the real person restoring the market space? Does she plan to live here for a long time, or is she just investing in a property and finding someone else to take care of the business? What attitude should everyone adopt when dealing with her?

At the same time, two other people went to Li Lijun's shop and asked two new employees, an old man and a young man, about what kind of business this shop was going to do? Will it compete with several nearby stores? Will it rob everyone?

business? Will it help their business?

The previous owner of Li Lijun’s shop opened a robe shop, and there happened to be a robe shop diagonally opposite. The two sounded like they were competitors. But in fact, the robe shop opened by the previous owner mainly sold all kinds of monster skins.

Strictly speaking, it is a leather goods store that makes leather armors, leather boots, leather protective gear, etc. The real competition with his store is the real leather goods store next door. However, because the cassock store focuses on women's clothing, it occasionally sells a few men's clothing.

, it is also based on regular clothes or formal clothes, and rarely uses monster fur, but it can live in peace with his family.

But now, the leather surplice shop has changed owners. The leather goods store is beginning to worry that the new store will continue to compete with his family for business. The proprietress of the surplice shop is also afraid that the new owner Li Lijun is a woman and will compete with her in the women's clothing market. She must pay more attention to it.

. When they learned that Li Lijun opened a grocery store mainly to purchase spiritual materials, although she might sell robes, it was not the main business and would not affect her family. The two shopkeepers immediately laughed and comforted the Qiu family ancestors.

Sun, he said that we are all neighbors. If you have anything to do, just say hello and don’t be polite. Otherwise, the shopkeeper is a young woman and the waiter is an old man and a young man. They all look very weak. If you encounter an unreasonable Diao,

What should I do?!

Grandpa Qiu San acted like an old man, said a few words of thanks, and happily coaxed the two shopkeepers away. Then he directed his granddaughter to close the shop door, clean up the living room of his grandparents and grandchildren upstairs first, and then clean up the shop.

Clean the stove.

The owner promised not to come back tonight, but the market's busiest business is at night. There is nothing to sell in their store, and even if it is open, they mainly buy supplies. Their grandparents are old, young and old.

If you are young, you must first clean your own house and cook a meal before you have the strength to greet your guests.

Qiu Xiaoji was a little confused as to why her husband looked so old and frail: "Didn't you teach me that letting outsiders think you are weak will only make them bully us more?"

Grandpa Qiu San smiled and said: "Silly girl, today is different from the past. In the mines under the jurisdiction of Zhenxian Temple, if Aweng doesn't behave stronger, others will definitely come to bully him. But now we have reached the cultivation base in Guanzhong

Market, this is the place under your supervision, Master Guan. How dare outsiders bully you and me? We have colleagues all over the store. If someone comes to make trouble, Aweng will say hello, and naturally there will be people to help us. But you Guan

Uncle Master tried his best to bring all of us here and secured a stable place for us to live. We should also think more about him. We are all your fellow disciples. If you still have to be strong in everything on weekdays,

If we are unwilling to live in peace with others, other shop owners will inevitably think that we are too overbearing, and they will also worry that your uncle Guan is biased towards us and treats things unfairly. If anyone is dissatisfied, please report to the Zhenxian Temple and let others take it away.

You went to take care of your uncle's errand, but what did you ask him to do?"

Without the errands of the real person Guan Chujian City, it will be extremely difficult for them, the old people of Lingguang Valley, to live a stable life in the cultivation market.

Qiu Xiaoji immediately understood the meaning of his grandfather's words: "That's it! We are all fellow disciples brought by Uncle Guan. We usually act weaker and easier to bully, so it seems reasonable for Uncle Guan to take care of us.

.And if we get along well with our neighbors, others won’t deliberately find fault with us.”

Grandpa Qiu San nodded with a smile: "One more thing. The owner made it very clear just now. Our store does not seek a prosperous business. The important thing is to help the owner receive what she needs. In this case, we can't just count on it.

Customers who come to the market will take the initiative to deliver things to their door, and they will inevitably have to deal with people from other stores. As long as everyone is familiar with each other, we will be better informed and know that other stores have received suitable things, so we can come to your door immediately.

Buy it. Isn’t this a bargain?”

Qiu Xiaoji suddenly realized: "Aweng is so smart, he thought of this so quickly."

Grandpa Qiu San smiled and said nothing. Where is this? If they work hard, the benefits they can get are more than that!
