Chapter 625 Demon Cult Leader 19
"Yes, yes, something happened!" Puppet An came to his senses, took out the banknote from his arms, and handed it to Puppet Ying.
After the puppet took it, he walked to her and handed it to her.
"Return, there are still eight thousand seven hundred and fifty-two taels left." Puppet didn't dare to raise his head, but he could speak fluently without raising his head: "Put the fifty-two taels here with the subordinates first, they will be needed later. The remaining eight thousand seven hundred taels, five silver notes for one thousand taels, were replaced by five hundred taels, one hundred taels and fifty taels."

Xining smiled: "Just leave it with you. Senior brother is very safe in handling things. I feel relieved."
As soon as he said this, Pou An's face turned red.
Xi Ning... Why does she blush so often? Is this true love?
She continued: “I don’t know how much each shop in town costs now.”
Puppet was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at her: "The leader wants to buy a shop?"
"Yes!" Xining picked up a goose feather fan and shook it gently. This thing was also brought back when he went out this time. Because this one is cheap, the round fans used by maids in small families with a little money are more expensive than this one.
This is what I plan to do to save money: "It has been more than three hundred years since the sect was founded. I see that there are still some people in the sect who have sound limbs and are no different from ordinary people. Buy a shop and sell dry goods from the mountains. They take care of it, and if the opportunity is right, they can marry someone outside and find a better way out.”
Puppet immediately expressed his position: "My subordinates and all believers swear to follow the leader to the death and never leave!"
It is because of this that the outside world has a huge misunderstanding of the Tianpuppet Sect. In fact, during this period of time, it seems that the Tianpuppet Sect is not a demonic sect at all, but has done more good deeds than any decent sect.
Because they were afraid of being affected and hurt, the entire sect closed itself off, and when the righteous ones called, no one in the entire world, no matter the sects or the demonic sects, could speak for them.
Xi Ning slowly shook the goose feather fan and stabilized Puppet first. Anyway, we will talk about the future later: "Okay, okay. I have this intention, and I understand. In fact, I was also thinking about setting up a shop. The shop can be used by myself, or it can be used by myself." Rent it out. We sell the dry goods to buy grains, oils, rice and noodles, which makes everyone's life easier. Also, the store also takes in children. They have to travel fifty miles to throw them at us, and no one is willing to give them away. Come on, if you can send it here, wouldn’t it be possible to save more children?”
When Puppet An heard this, his tears suddenly shone, and he almost stopped crying: "The leader is so kind, I will do it immediately."
Xining reminded: "There is no rush in this matter. Take your time and buy only if there is a good store. After all, we only have so little money."
"Don't worry, Master." Puppet straightened his back and said in a bright voice: "I often go to the town to sell dry goods. Over time, I know a little about the place. The shops there are not as good as those in Shu County. No matter how good the shops are, they are small. The order is only two or three hundred taels of silver, and the price of a large restaurant is one or two thousand taels.”
"Okay, let's buy four small shops and one big one first." Xining decided immediately.
Pou An immediately took two people with him and went to the town to look at shops. After looking at them for several days, I came to tell her that I had chosen a few of them and asked her to check them out.
Xining then went down the mountain and took a carriage to see the shop.
After getting off the carriage, everyone around was stunned.
"What are you looking at? If you look at it again, your eyes will be blinded by poison." The puppet scolded fiercely.
People were so frightened that they quickly turned their heads. That was the Demon Sect, the Tianpuppet Sect living in the mountains. It is said that they raise children with various disabilities to practice evil arts, know how to poison, witchcraft, and even the legendary king of poisons-the sky puppet.
When Puppet Ying saw that the scolding was effective, he was able to act accordingly. She turned to Xining and whispered: "Master, why don't you wear a mask? You are so beautiful." She was wearing a red gauze skirt that outlined her graceful figure, and her shiny black hair was only pulled up on top of her head. I made a bun and decorated it with a large silver phoenix hairpin, and the rest hung down casually, reaching as long as my knees... Xining raised his head slightly: "Why wear a mask? Someone already knows what I look like anyway!"
Ever since the mask fell off, everyone in the world knows that the leader of the Tianpuppet Sect is as beautiful as a fairy. Just stop wearing it and let everyone see it.
Sister is so confident and beautiful!
After looking at the store, I thought it was good, the location was lively, and the price was right, so I bought it.
Because they knew that the Demon Sect bought this store, the two families on the left and right were willing to sell the shop at the same price. A total of 600 taels of silver were used to buy three consecutive stores.
Xining is very satisfied with this. The more stores there are, the better things can be done.
Then it was time to simply pack up and move things into the store. It is better to choose a day than to hit it. The next day is an auspicious day, so we opened the business.
Pou'an wanted to stay temporarily to take care of the store business, so he selected a few able-bodied ones and a dozen or so relatively disabled believers to be his clerks.
On the day of the opening, Xining did not show up. He sat in the carriage and looked at the bustling store entrance with firecrackers. The people in the town stood outside the store, watching the fun like a crowd of melon-eaters.
After setting off the firecrackers, Puppet An took out the prepared paper, pasted it on the wall next to the shop, and started business!
Not many local people were literate, so those who were literate would sit around and listen to the recitation.
"Tianpuppet Mountain Goods Store is very happy to open. If you buy fifty coins, you will get a small bag of dried bamboo shoots. Tianpuppet Sect is compassionate and has been taking in abandoned babies for three hundred years. If there are abandoned babies, please do not throw them away. You can leave them at the door. And knock on the door, no matter morning or evening, someone will open the door..."
When I read this, there was an uproar and a lot of discussion.
Everyone knows that the Tianpuppet Sect takes in abandoned babies, no matter what they are. Looking at the clerks in the shop now, most of them are born with various disabilities. It seems that they are really doing good things.
A group of people stood in front of this piece of paper and talked about it for a long time. Finally, two people were really curious and entered the shop and asked one of the waiters: "Hey, are you really accepting it?"
"That's natural!" The clerk was packing up the dry goods, putting the dried bamboo shoots to be given away into paper bags and wrapping them in bags. Others have ten fingers, but he was born missing three, but his movements are still the same as normal, and he is as fast as other clerks in dry goods stores.
While he was busy, he answered in a very normal way: "The people in our village are all taken in by the leader, as well as the descendants of the children who have grown up."
He lifted the half-missed index finger and said, "The one who wiped the counter there was a good person, but his ancestors put them at the foot of the mountain. And there, there, they were all thrown into the small pavilion at the foot of the mountain. Alas, Do you want to buy it or not? If you buy over 50 coins today, I will give you a pack of this. I will soak it in water and it will be delicious when cooking or making soup.”
Upon hearing this, a kind-hearted person shouted: "Then let me go in and buy some. Anyway, this dry goods is not too bad."
As soon as someone came through the door, others swarmed in.
At the same time, in the restaurant opposite the store, several people were eating in the second floor seating area.
All of them had handsome features, and one of them, a young man in white, was even more astonishing in appearance. Even the waiter who served the food couldn't help but take a second look.
These are people from the Nangong family, and the man in white is Nangong Yiyun.
