Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

After everyone left, Tao Shuobai took out the storage bag and rummaged through it for a while.

If you want to open a shop, you must have a shopkeeper and a clerk in the shop. He can't greet customers in person. It's not a matter of face, he really doesn't have that ability.Another one, since you want to live by yourself, you must have a maid to take care of your daily necessities, otherwise the neighbors will sooner or later notice something is wrong.He has a special status, if he uses mortals, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble, so he tends to use non-humans.

First, he took out a painting scroll from the storage bag and unfolded it. On it was a row of green-clothed girls in buns with different appearances.This is the same as the year-end benefits of high-ranking civil servants in the underworld. With a little magic, the girls in green clothes will come down from the painting and take care of daily life.

It's a pity that it is not applicable in the human world. Once the girls on the painting see the sun, they will turn into fly ash.

Then it turned over again, and accidentally turned out a puppet.

Tao Shuobai was overjoyed, and immediately found a high-quality spirit stone and pressed it on the puppet, but seeing a flash of inspiration, a man with a height of eight feet appeared in front of him.When the man saw him, he immediately bowed his knees and said, "Master!"

Tao Shuobai frowned, this man is actually a Jindan cultivator, and his age, body and temperament are not suitable for working in the shop.So he stretched out his hand, called the puppet back, and put it back into the storage bag.

After thinking about it, he took out the bronze mirror and clicked on the Three Realms Mall.

Search in the search bar as required, and a variety of products immediately appear below. The more you scroll down, the more outrageous the price.Tao Shuo Bai originally thought that he had little savings now, but after looking at the things in the mall, he realized that he was still a poor person. Ninety-nine ninety-nine coins.

If he hadn't caught a fleeing evil spirit in the last world, how could he be willing to spend such money.

The logistics speed of the mall is very fast, and the cross-border delivery will arrive in half an hour.

This time he only pressed the primary spirit stone on the puppet, and after activation, there was a family of four in front of him.An old couple in their 50s, and a young couple in their twenties, all of these four people's cultivation is only foundation building.Looking at the four people in front of him, Tao Shuobai probably understood why it was a discounted product. This family was too ordinary, not to mention the ordinary appearance, and the old man was a bit gloomy. It's a good pair of young couples, the man is simple and honest, and the woman is straightforward.

"Master." The four saluted.

Having already looked through the user manual, Tao Shuobai knew that he had to give names to a few people first, and then order them to learn skills.Puppets are man-made, and they are not omnipotent, but they have spirit stones in their bodies, and they can learn things faster than ordinary people. Often, one person can hold several jobs, but there are also disadvantages. They can be refined to the extreme, but the things they make are not spiritual. There will be no additional changes either.It's like making a soup. Once the puppet learns it, it can basically guarantee that it will taste the same a thousand times.

Fortunately, the business he does does not require much, and these four people are all qualified.

"Uncle Mu, Aunt Mu, Mu Shan, and Yue Niang." After addressing each of them, they arranged: "From now on, they will call me 'Master'. From now on, Uncle Mu and Mu Shan will take care of the business in the shop. Aunt Mu and Yue The mother is in charge of the kitchen. Although you don’t eat, if you really can’t avoid the presence of outsiders, just put on a show.”

It is still very easy to be a cover-up to fool mortals when building a foundation.

There are shops and manpower, but there is still the most important thing - household registration!He is a new face, and it is impossible to settle in the capital, and he will know that there is a fake. The only way to confuse the public is to set his "origin" far away from Beijing, and the transportation is inconvenient.In the end, he chose the land of Shu as his domicile. The road to Shu is difficult to reach the blue sky. Even if one day he arouses suspicion from others, it will be difficult to verify his origin.

He went to Shuntian Mansion to check the guides again, and felt that the guides issued by the underworld government were similar.

Instead of using magic to forge it, he wrote a copy directly, stamped it with the official seal of the yamen, and went to the local yamen in Sichuan to complete the formalities together.The paperwork of Uncle Mu's family is more convenient, and it is directly registered as a slave, under his name, and his road citation paperwork is enough.

Three days later, Chen San invited him to meet the seller, paid the money, and went to the yamen together to complete the transfer of documents.

Tao Shuobai gave the remuneration, and also gave him a tael of silver for the wine. After all, according to the usual practice, the business is negotiated to treat the tooth shop to a drink.

Seeing that he was generous, Chen San was secretly delighted, and his mouth became more respectful: "What kind of business is Mr. Tao planning to do? If there is anything useful, Mr. Tao can just open his mouth and dare not say anything else. I have all the news channels in the capital." cooked."

Chen San had already seen his household registration when he was doing the paperwork just now, and knew that he was from Shu, but he couldn't tell from his appearance alone, and he didn't even have an accent when he spoke.

"I will open in a few days, welcome to join us." Tao Shuobai did not explain.

"Definitely come! Definitely come!" Mr. Chen didn't ask about the specific date, but he knew the news about this place all the time.

Because Tao Shuobai was mysterious, generous, and the deal was recently completed, Chen San kept this matter in mind.Only a few days later, Chen San heard that there was a new store opening on Changfu Street, and immediately called his wife to prepare some congratulatory gifts that were similar to the ones, planning to go to congratulate him.

But his wife asked strangely: "It's opening today? Don't you hear me wrong? Today is July [-]th. Who will open today?"

Chen San suddenly remembered that today is July [-]th, and tomorrow is the [-]th, which happens to be the Hungry Ghost Festival.Hungry Ghost Festival, also commonly known as Ghost Festival, is a day when the gates of the underworld are open, and lonely ghosts return to the sun to visit relatives and friends and enjoy offerings.

Despite his doubts, Chen San still went for a walk.

Although Changfu Street is not as good as Dongshi and Xishi, or the streets in Midtown, it is a very good location in Xicheng.The capital has always been rich in the east and rich in the west. As the west city where rich people gather, the shops in the market are naturally complete in all colors, and the shop under Tao Shuobai has two doors and a complete backyard. A lot of them ended up in Tao Shuobai's hands only because the seller asked for a high price.

When Chen San walked to Changfu Street, he saw that the street market was the same as before. The shop that was sold was indeed open for business, but it was not very lively. He is the owner of various shops in the street.

Chen San wondered, is this open or not?It was so deserted.

On the other hand, Chen San was very curious about what kind of business this store was doing.

As a habit, Chen San smiled all over his face before he reached the door of the store. He was about to shout "Congratulations on the opening" when he happened to look up at the plaque when his words got stuck in his throat and he almost lost his breath.

Taoji Paper Goods Store!

Chen San stared at the five words on the plaque, read it over and over again, yes!It's a paper store!Look at this shop again, it's right!It was a deal I just made a few days ago.So, that Mr. Peach spent 300 taels of silver to buy such a good shop, instead of selling brocade and jade articles, or opening a library or restaurant, but selling paper incense candles?

In the Ming Dynasty, housing prices were relatively low. Even in a wealthy place like the capital, an ordinary small courtyard house cost only 40 taels of silver.Shops are naturally more expensive than houses. It is conceivable that a shop that cost 300 taels of silver would only sell paper goods if a fool!

What a prodigal!Prodigal!

Chen San finally understood the meaning of the complicated hesitation of the owner of the other shop along the way.Even if it wasn't his own shop, he felt distressed and flustered.It's just that when people are at the door, it's not easy to turn around and leave. Besides, he also wants to see the difference between the paper bundles sold in such a shop.

As soon as he entered the store, Chen San was taken aback for a moment.

Yo!There were quite a lot of people in the store, and I thought there were no customers. After all, no one wanted to come to the paper-making store to seek bad luck for no reason.I also thought that tomorrow is the Hungry Ghost Festival, and every family has to offer sacrifices, and it is inevitable to come to buy sacrifices.Chen San couldn't help feeling that Mr. Tao was shrewd and opened the business right on time.But after walking a few steps, I felt that something was wrong. The shop was so quiet that there was no sound at all.

After a closer look, I found that the layout of this store is completely different from that of ordinary paper-making stores.

In other paper-making shops, no matter how big the room is, it is not only packed to the brim, but also paper coins with ingots are hung on the top of the head, so the available space is not wasted, and there is no place to go in.But this store is very bright and bright. Originally, the two rooms were not separated, but a delicately carved flower and bird flying cover was made. In the middle stood a folding fan screen of the Four Gentlemen of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum. You can vaguely see the inside from both sides There seem to be a few bright skirt corners.

There is a female guest!

Chen San hurriedly withdrew his gaze, feeling more and more strange in his heart.

In the main room facing the main door, there are actually counter shelves. A shopkeeper in ocher clothes is personally entertaining a wealthy young couple. On the left side is a pair of tables and chairs. Pour tea for guests.In the corner, there is a tall table for orchid grass, and several pictures of landscape ladies hanging on the wall.There is a bird cage hanging by the door of the store, on which is a parrot with fluttering wings, and under it are two children standing on tiptoes, trying to tease the parrot with their hands. The two children, one red and one green, are very well dressed. Neat, just like the golden boy and jade girl in front of the Bodhisattva.

Because Chen San had just entered the door, he didn't pay much attention at first, but when he saw the pair of children, he felt that they were born well and they must come from a wealthy family, but his face turned pale after a while, because he found a It was an extremely frightening thing. The two children did not move for a long time, including the parrot on the cage, the guest buddies who were drinking tea and pouring tea, and even the husband and wife of the shopkeeper. They all kept the same movement without any change!

In an instant, goosebumps all over Chen San's body, if not for a moment of weakness in his legs, he would have rushed out the door almost immediately!

He just felt that the layout of this store was weird, the paper-studded things were almost invisible, but it looked like a silver building.However, upon closer inspection, it was completely arranged according to the silver building. The shopkeeper held a wooden box in his hand, and inside was a finely crafted golden phoenix hairpin.In this store, the flying covers, veils, tables and chairs, cabinets and jewelry, and even everyone including the shopkeeper, are all made of paper. These are the paper goods in the store!

Even after realizing it now, Chen Sanfei didn't breathe a sigh of relief, on the contrary, his spine became more and more numb.

The things in this store are so realistic!

Chen San was even a little dazed, as if those were not paper figurines, but real people who would turn their heads to talk to him at any time.

No wonder some passers-by caught a glimpse of this store with strange eyes. From the outside, the layout inside does not match the name of the store.I'm afraid that many people are secretly laughing at this moment, mistakenly thinking that the owner of this store took the wrong signboard, and made a big joke.

"What does the customer want to buy?" Suddenly a gloomy voice sounded, but seeing an old man with a gloomy face lift the curtain and come out, the voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from underground.

Chen San screamed in fright, couldn't hold back anymore, turned around and fled.

Tao Shuobai heard the movement and asked, "What's the matter?"

Uncle Mu frowned, and then replied: "Probably the customer went to the wrong shop."

Hearing this, Tao Shuobai stopped asking questions, and was just about to go back to the backyard when someone came into the shop.

"My God! You, are you really a paper-making shop? Boss, are you a real person or a dummy?" The girl who came in was shocked. Although her face was so frightened, she left without turning around.

Tao Shuobai felt that the voice sounded familiar, and when he turned around, it was indeed Cheng Ping'an.
