Chapter 218 The price is more terrifying than the harvest

“Five or fifty cents each, that’s the price in the market, it’s not special...”

Tong Qian was shocked by Lin Yuan’s exaggerated reaction She was startled and stuttered a bit in her explanation, but she suddenly realized that she seemed to have overlooked something.

In the eyes of the "store manager", money and money are different.

In other words, ghost banknotes are money, but the banknotes used by ordinary people have become counterfeit currency. Based on the value of ghost banknotes, fifty cents for a mask is no different from robbing money.

Wanting to understand this, Tong Qian quickly changed her words, "Five hundred, a total of fifty cents."

Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Speak more clearly next time, I'm almost scared to death." , I thought the mask was already thickened to this extent. Let’s put it in first. If anyone has symptoms such as cough, tell them immediately. There happens to be an old Chinese medicine doctor in the store, and he can be treated in time. Do you understand? "

" Got it, boss. "

Putting the mask away, Lin Yuan immediately went upstairs to ring. After walking through the door of room 203, Zhang Bohua opened the door, and a cold breath immediately came out, mixed with the smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Boss Lin? What can I do?"

Zhang Bohua took off his sunglasses and wiped them. He also had an extremely strong cold aura on his body, and there were even some shadows surrounding his body.

As he moved, those shadows gradually calmed down, the cold aura gradually dissipated, and he returned to normal, just like a normal old man.

Lin Yuan talked about the situation in Dachuan City, "A large-scale epidemic may have occurred there, but the official did not make it public for the sake of stability. We are all small citizens, and we need to make some preparations in advance, Mr. Zhang Are you sure?"

Zhang Bohua thought for a while and said: "I am somewhat confident in my medical skills, but I have to look at the situation for details. Boss Lin, I hear what you mean, it seems that you want to go. Dachuan City?"

Lin Yuan nodded and did not hide it, "I bought a hotel in ZS City to use as a breeding farm. Li Qingzhi, the man in charge of the breeding farm, lost some things in Dachuan City. I was going to get it back for him. If it hadn’t been for this epidemic, maybe I would have passed it.”

Li Qingzhi!

Brother Zhang nodded.

Meng Xiaodong told him about Li Qingzhi's situation when he moved in yesterday. He even met Li Qingzhi in the evening.

However, Li Qingzhi's current situation is very special and he is irrational, so he cannot communicate.

And he could also see that the puzzle piece on Li Qingzhi was incomplete, and the shadow behind him was missing his head, which was the ghost head.

Originally, Zhang Bohua was still worried, thinking that there was really a large-scale epidemic in Dachuan City.

If this were to be the case, even supernatural power would not be easy to use, but now it seems that it should be a supernatural event caused by the ghost shadow head.

The Seven Elders of the Republic of China are the titles given by some modern ghost masters to the top seven ghost masters of the Republic of China, but there was no such term in their time.

We are both the Seven Elders of the Republic of China, and they have more or less contact with each other, or even have no intersection at all.

Due to his own supernatural speciality, Zhang Bohua has interacted with most of the ghost controllers in the Republic of China. Even Zhang Dong, the human god known as the Dongtian Emperor and who single-handedly suppressed an era, once He asked for medicine here.

The same is true for Li Qingzhi, who guards the Caesar Hotel.

This is the professional advantage of being a top doctor, which allows Zhang Bohua to have a basic understanding of the power of these ghost masters.

Li Qingzhi’s shadow can splice the body and steal memories. It is a dual supernatural power involving physics and consciousness, and it is extremely powerful.

The Ghost Head is a supernatural puzzle piece that can steal memories.

The supernatural events caused by the ghost shadow head, the current Okawa City has probably become a dead place. On the surface, there are still living people, but in fact they are all just a group of unaware ghost slaves. .

Zhang Bohua thought for a while, "Boss Lin, give me some time, maybe I can get some preventive medicine."

Lin Yuan was immediately overjoyed, "Then I'll trouble Mr. Zhang."

For Lin Yuan still trusts Zhang Bohua's medical skills, and he has a "golden finger". This is not a scientific thing. If he is really infected with the disease, he can clean it up. At most, he only needs to consume some animals.

No matter whether Zhang Bohua has achieved results or not, Lin Yuan will not stop his trip to Dachuan City.

After all, in addition to running the Peace Hotel, upgrading "Goldfinger" is the most important main task in his life.

Today's business is as bad as ever. After Zhang Xianguang and Yang Xiaotian left, no new customers arrived.

Lin Yuan’s mind was on Dachuan City, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.

Towards evening, Meng Xiaodong came back on the ghost bus. After saying hello to Lin Yuan, he went upstairs directly.

After passing 203, the door opened. Zhang Bohua invited Meng Xiaodong into the room and asked the question he was most concerned about: "The store manager seems to consciously collect old antiques like us."

Meng Xiaodong knew what he meant as soon as he heard it, "Has the store manager found Li Qingzhi's ghost head?"

Zhang Bohua said in surprise: "It seems that you still have a lot of things that you haven't told me. Isn't it a deliberate concealment?" That’s why I didn’t mention it. You should know that supernatural events come at a price. What price do you think we need to pay for our bodies to become younger?”

We are all old people in the Republic of China, no. It is necessary and there is no intention to beat around the bush.

Zhang Bohua said solemnly: "Being confined to the Peace Hotel, doesn't it count?"

Meng Xiaodong shook his head, "For the store manager, this is just a means. You have never seen The real store manager, if you have met him, you will have no such doubts.”

Zhang Bohua's heart skipped a beat: "The real store manager? The current store manager is already very scary. What would the real store manager be?"

"The current store manager is indeed scary, but he has time. He is not aware of his power and cannot display it effectively. As long as he has the right means, he can even use his power to achieve his own goals. Of course, this approach is very dangerous. After all, when he recovers, that is the most terrifying thing. . Possessing complete cognition and consciousness, as well as almost incomprehensible power..."

At this point, Meng Xiaodong's eyes flashed with fear.

Zhang Bohua was very surprised, "Even people like you are afraid. It seems that he is really a scary guy. So, since he is so scary, why would he bind us here? It seems that If he needs our strength, he will also need our strength?"

Meng Xiaodong gently stroked the rag doll in the vegetable basket, as if this could drive away the fear in her heart, "If I hadn't guessed If you are wrong, there are only two powers that the store manager really has, one is the white mist that never dissipates in this supernatural place, and the other... is the Peace Hotel. The path the store manager takes is to balance, Peace Hotel and white mist. The balance between supernatural beings, the former is a shield, protecting the consciousness, and the latter is a spear, unparalleled in attacking.”

Zhang Bohua's pupils shrank, "What you mean is that the store manager's balance has been broken, and the shield guarding his consciousness cannot defend against the sharpened spear. So he had to choose to fall into a deep sleep, leaving only a part of his subconscious outside, until the Peace Hotel was strengthened. When he can regain balance with the white mist spirit, will he truly recover? And we are the puzzle pieces he chose?"

Meng Xiaodong sighed, "I don't know my own. Is the guess correct? But if you think about it carefully, maybe you just use our power temporarily. If it were you, would you let the consciousness of a living person become your own puzzle? "

This... not really.

The most vulnerable thing for a ghost controller is not his body, but his consciousness.

Just like a ghost dream, no matter how powerful the ghost master is when he is pulled into the dream, he will only become an ordinary person without any supernatural power.

With the strength shown by the store manager, he will definitely be very cautious.

It would be so funny to obviously have powerful supernatural power, but be wiped out due to the conflict of consciousness... However, such a powerful store manager would not understand this, and would not have the protection of consciousness. ?

"That's it."

Zhang Bohua breathed a sigh of relief, "Li Qingzhi still retains a trace of consciousness in his body. He is obviously dead. He dismembered his own supernatural power, but he still did it. At this level, he is worthy of it! I suspect that he has other methods, such as whether there is still some consciousness in Guiyingtou? I have to think carefully about how to tell the store manager tomorrow. "

As night fell, Tong Qian and Lin Yuan returned to reality after saying hello.

He Yin'er locked the gate of the fish pond fence, "Brother Yuan, I am also going to go back to my hometown and find someone to help design the operation plan of the fish pond."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Sent away He Yin'er, looking at the spacious but deserted store, Lin Yuan reluctantly He couldn't help but sigh, "Liu Qingqing, He Yuelian, He Yin'er... everyone has their own affairs, forget it, career is the most important thing. Lao Fan, go upstairs and rest, just let Lao Hua guard the door." ”

Li Qingzhi returned from the Caesar Hotel, and the ghost security guard also went upstairs.

A thick white mist once again enveloped this supernatural place, including the interior of the Peace Hotel. The already unlively Peace Hotel fell into complete silence. The strange invasion, fusion and confrontation were silent in the silence. Proceed without interest.

But this night was not as peaceful as imagined.

Not in the Peace Hotel, but in reality and another supernatural place.

……

In Taiping Ancient Town, the original panic caused by the ghost lake has dissipated.

He Liansheng is still guarding his ancestral hall, as if he is preparing to spend the rest of his life like this.

Middle-aged women still go to the dilapidated ferry from time to time to wash clothes, and then return to the tailor shop to sew and mend.

Boss Liu sits in front of his special hotel all day long and does not rest at night.

The faceless man is still walking around like a streetwalker, looking for the face that will never be found.

What was slightly more lively was the paper-making shop that had no owner for a long time but was run by an unknown voice.

The entire Taiping Ancient Town is like dusk. When the last batch of old people pass away, they will be completely buried in the long river of time.

It wasn't until a thick white mist appeared at the entrance of the archway that this ancient town gained a touch of vitality.

He Yin'er walked out, said hello to the faceless man who happened to be wandering nearby, and went straight to the ancestral hall.

When passing by the paper shop, she stopped because a voice came from inside, "Do me a favor."

The door of the paper shop was brightly lit. After the two paper figures were taken away by Lin Yuan, there was no replenishment, which was a little less weird.

He Yin'er hesitated a little and walked in.

As a little girl who grew up in Taiping Ancient Town, He Yin'er is very familiar with every corner here, including the paper-making shop. But when she came in, she looked obviously surprised.

“When I came here, there were only paper people, paper horses, and paper sedans. Now there are paper TVs, paper refrigerators, and paper cars. It’s really keeping pace with the times. It’s a pity that peace is now No one can get into the ancient town, so it’s a shame.”

The voice in the darkness said: “Don’t worry, I have a lot of regular customers. I can’t contact him, can you help me?”

He Yin’er said in surprise: “Is there such a rich guy now? Okay, I’m the only one who can go in and out of Taiping Ancient Town now. , tell me your address and I’ll go there when I have time.”

"Caesar Hotel."

He Yin'er: "???"

If she remembers correctly, Caesar Hotel is now the ghost breeding farm of "Store Manager" Lin Yuan. It was handed over to Li Qingzhi during the Republic of China.

Is it the "store manager" or Li Qingzhi who orders a large number of paper figures at the paper shop?

“The store manager came here twice when you were submerged in the ghost lake. The first time he came, he came specifically to the paper shop, and I brought him here.”

He Liansheng did not know when he appeared at the door of the paper shop, but he did not come in.

He Yin'er politely called "Grandpa He", "So that's it, then I understand. I will tell the store manager when I go back tomorrow."

In the darkness The voice said: "According to the original agreement, I should deliver the goods to your door. Unfortunately, it can't be done now. The paper man can't get out...it's troublesome."

Asking the paper man to deliver the paper man sounds a bit strange. Weird, but in the eyes of these people, it is a very normal operation.

Compared with technology, although supernatural power is more expensive, it is also a very convenient power if used to improve life.

He Yin'er's eyes lit up, "Grandpa He, do you still remember that you asked me to propose to the store manager to open up the passage between Taiping Ancient Town and the outside world?"

He Liansheng nodded, "Taiping Ancient Town should not be here It dies in my hands. But if it’s too much trouble, forget it. As long as you are still there, Taiping Ancient Town will still be there.”

He Yiner smiled bitterly: “Grandpa He, I feel a lot of pressure when you say that. Ah. I really didn't find a suitable opportunity to mention this matter today. After all, you know the store manager's situation. It needs to be explained with ordinary people's reasons, otherwise it will easily cause supernatural backlash. Now is the time to use Zhizhapu and Caesar. The transaction between hotels may allow the store manager to open up a channel between the two supernatural places. The current standardized management of Caesar Hotel can also enter reality through Caesar Hotel.”

He Liansheng thought. I thought, "Although it is a bit complicated, it is better than nothing. It would be better to go outside the Caesar Hotel."

"I will try it. By the way, Grandpa He, I will also I have something to ask you for help.”

He Yin'er then explained Lin Yuan's arrangement, and He Liansheng's expression became more and more weird, "The ghost lake has become a fish pond, and it needs to be opened for use. Let you make a design plan?"
< br>“Originally I wanted to ask the headquarters for help, but in the end I gave up after thinking about it.”

Looking at He Yin’er nodding seriously, He Lian Sheng also confirmed that she was not joking, "Your current situation is a bit special, and it is indeed not suitable to have too deep connections with the headquarters. Let's do this, I will call everyone over, and we will discuss it together."

Anyway Ah, there is absolutely no way that He Liansheng, a stubborn and tough-tongued old man, would admit that he can't come up with an operational plan!

Soon, the only four remaining elders in Taiping Ancient Town gathered in the ancestral hall.

He Yin'er explained the situation, but what he got was two blank faces and one faceless face.

Boss Liu had a wry smile on his face, "Maybe you can go to the elites among ordinary people. They should have a lot of ideas. It's really difficult to let us come up with ideas. People.”

No reason was given, but everyone knew it.

To develop a fish pond and engage in fishing business, this was really a new thing in their time.

At that time, almost no one had fish ponds. If I really wanted to eat fish, I could just go to the countryside and find a river or stream.

There is no such thing as a closed fishing season or levels of protected animals.

It would be more practical to let them come up with this stupid plan than to let them fight a fierce ghost.

He Liansheng nodded, "Old Liu is right. The situation outside should be very complicated now. The recovery of Li Gui is getting more and more serious, and many ordinary people know about Li Gui. You are responsible for Ohara City The same is true. It just so happens that we can take this opportunity to recruit talents. I think the store manager's situation is to improve the business, and this aspect will be indispensable in the future. You have to prepare for the work ahead."

He Yin'er thought: "Okay, I will pay attention to this, so let's do this for today, and I will deal with it tomorrow. By the way, I brought some daily necessities back from Ohara City..."

He Liansheng and the others are still alive, and they also need to eat, drink and relieve themselves.

Now Taiping Ancient Town is flooded, and they can't get out at all. Fortunately, He Yin'er can enter the Peace Hotel at will, and was given the fourth-floor ghost lake supernatural by the store manager, so he can be unrestricted.

Of course, He Liansheng and others also need to be supplied with their daily necessities.

After the supplies were distributed, Boss Liu, the middle-aged woman and the faceless man left separately. He Yin'er followed He Liansheng to the ancestral hall to clean up.

Especially those dozens of spiritual tablets.

He Yin'er has been cleaning since he was a child. He has been cleaning for more than 20 years, and now he is pretty good at it.

"After I leave, this place will be left to you."

He Liansheng suddenly sighed, as if he didn't have much time left.

He Yin'er's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said: "Grandpa He will live to be a hundred years old, at least ten or twenty years. It's still early."

"Haha! I hope so!"

He Liansheng laughed loudly and energetically. It sounded like he really had many years left, but he knew very well that his life span was only one or two years.

"Even if I die, I will pave the way for her."

......

Who is the richest person in Tai O City? Everyone has their own answer, and even the so-called top ten richest people's list cannot be completely convincing.

After all, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Tai O City. Some families that have been passed down for hundreds of years will never expose their wealth to others.

But if we want to say who is the most famous owner of a casino, it is undoubtedly Boss He.

There are thousands of casinos in Tai O City. They are the most luxurious and the most popular. Many people will not miss it when traveling to Tai O. Naturally, it is Boss He's Ho's Casino.

This place has the best atmosphere, considerate service, and the highest popularity. There is no reason not to come.

Today is the same. The He's Casino is full of people, and there is a room on the highest floor that can just take in all the scenery below.

This is Boss He’s exclusive room. He likes to stand here very much. It gives him a sense of satisfaction of being in control of everything.

“Dad, Yue Lian is here.”

A young man with a slightly pale face walked in with a respectful face. He was Boss He's eldest son and He Yuelian's brother.

Boss He nodded, and just about to say something, he saw He Yuelian walking in with a foreign woman, and his face suddenly darkened, "Have you forgotten the rules at home after being out for half a month? ?”

He Yuelian glanced at him and asked: “I got home in the morning, and I told you that I was in a hurry, but I waited for you at home all day, but you were unwilling to come back to work. So busy?”

Boss He frowned and said, “I’m working”

“Standing here and enjoying the feeling of being in control of everything, just like you’re controlling me?”

He Yuelian's question made Boss He look a little ugly. With a glance, several bunny girls serving in the room bowed and exited.

For a time, only He Yuelian's family was left in the room...and the little foreign girl.

“If you don’t understand the rules, come and take her out.”

Boss He has scruples about He Yuelian, but he doesn’t care about the people He Yuelian brings, especially a foreigner. What scruples are there?

Two bodyguards in black clothes and sunglasses at the door came in and grabbed the little girl's shoulders, one on the left and the other on the right.

But as soon as they touched each other, they felt a huge force hit them, and then they were spinning upside down and flew out of the door.

Boss He's eyes narrowed slightly, "It turns out that I have someone to rely on."

"It's just to give myself some added protection."

He Yuelian's face was as frosty as before. In the He family's perfect fake smile that was deliberately shown for survival, "I came here this time to ask for your help with something."

Boss He interrupted: "This is not the attitude of asking for help. And I am your father..."

"Do you know Zhang Xianguang?"

He Yuelian suddenly asked, and Boss He was stunned on the spot, his eyes were a little stunned and a little panicked, "You, how do you know Zhang Xianguang?"

"It seems that he didn't lie about this matter."

He Yuelian's muttering sounded like confirmation to Boss He. He hurriedly stepped forward to grab He Yuelian's wrist and press for information about Zhang Xianguang. .

But before he even got close, he was blocked by the little foreign girl.

"We will discuss Zhang Xianguang's matter later. Now I need to contact some ghost masters. There should be many in Tai'ao City. I'm sorry to bother you."

These are all for the "store manager" Gifts are also props for her to show her own value!
