"Aunt Li, how much is a catty of these apples?" By the market at the foot of Chiyou Tomb, a man with bloodstains around his shoulders asked naively.
"35 yuan a catty." Aunt Li smiled. "Ban Lu, don't you remember? I just talked about it yesterday."
"Really?" Banlu scratched his head and said with a naive smile, "It doesn't matter, give me a catty."
"Hello~" Aunt Li agreed, "37 yuan."
"Here, this is money..." The man counted, but he didn't know whether he was out of his wits or what, the money in his hand was counted over and over again, but he still couldn't count.The aunt who sold the apples couldn't stand it any longer, so she said, "Give me seven, seven, five times, and you don't want a fraction, huh?"
"How good is this..." The man still wanted to refuse, but Mrs. Li had already put all the apples in the weighing plate into his basket, and said, "That's it, Mrs., I don't care about this with you."
"No, no, I have to give it. Otherwise, the elder brother will scold me." The man insisted on giving it, but when he was in a hurry, he couldn't count.Just as he was about to choke out the sweat on his forehead, a young man in a red shirt turned around from nearby and said softly, "Let me count for you."
The man looked up, and immediately stammered excitedly: "Xia, Young Master Xiahou!" Even the aunt immediately said cheerfully: "Young Master Xiahou, I'm sorry to trouble you! Young Master Xiahou, just count 35 characters for me. alright!"
Xiahou Jinxuan slightly bent his eyes and smiled: "This is impossible, business is business, and it can last for a long time if it is profitable. How can you keep spending like this." How kind is Aunt Li, she often gives discounts to those stupid magicians on the mountain. Xiahou Jinxuan knew about it, and when he met him this time, he helped Banlu refuse, otherwise his brother Banshan would have been entangled for a long time.
Xiahou Jinxuan took the slightly sweaty copper plates from the man's hand, counted 37 and handed them to Aunt Li, and said with a smile, "I wish you a prosperous birthday."
The aunt happily took it, and asked again: "Young Master Xiahou came to see the Demon Lord?"
Xiahou Jinxuan nodded with a smile: "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you."
"Then go quickly." Aunt Li patted him, Xia Hou Jinxuan responded, and asked Ban Lu if he needed help.Ban Lu naturally shook his head and refused repeatedly, so Xiahou Jinxuan had no choice but to leave first.Anyway, I have seen it here, and the situation is not bad, let's go directly to Jiang Cheng.
Xiahou Jinxuan is well aware of that man's situation, in fact he is not alone, many demons have his situation, they are generally not smart enough to turn their brains around, so they used to be very afraid of human treachery.This half Lu Yin knew Xiahou Jinxuan because of his brother's relationship, so Xiahou Jinxuan also knew that his mind was very dull, so the aunt said that he would be exempted from two copper coins.
If it was in the early years, how could I have imagined that it would be like this now.
At that time, the two sides could watch each other vigilantly for a long time from a long distance, let alone walk around and buy and sell in each other's markets casually like now.After his father persuaded Uncle Huangfu, their Xiahou family announced the plight of the demons to the world openly, expressing their willingness to believe in the demons, coexist peacefully with them, and start trading.
Their first step was to open the human market to the glass fired in the lava kiln in the Chiyou Tomb. As her mother said, this object caused a sensation once it was released, and it directly entered the category of rare treasures. Specialties are overshadowed by some.
This provided the first funds for the Demons to carry out more daily trade exchanges, but it almost caused them some trouble.Although the internal discussions of the four great families have been decided, these four families are not the only ones in the world. Some martial arts people who covet glass inevitably have crooked ideas, clamoring that humans and demons cannot coexist and will never compromise, and they also preach that their Xiahou family is because of Only after taking a fancy to the wealth that the glass can bring, will he be willing to degenerate and join the demon clan.
This is really a great injustice, let alone outsiders, even some internal disciples of Xiahou's family secretly speculate whether this is the truth.At this time when people's hearts were shaken, his second uncle said, since everyone thinks so, then there is no need to argue. There are brave men who are rewarded with one-third of the profits of the glass and are willing to go to the vicinity of Chiyou Tomb to maintain The disciples of the human-devil trading order... So Xiahou's disciples, who had some complaints and thoughts in their hearts, suddenly lost their minds.
Morality and justice in the world are important, but how important is the order of the sect master?
Since the sect master said that those demons also have pitiful qualities, it is credible.What's more, when Jiang Cheng was their young master before, he was loved by people from their school. Everyone can see his character. Since he is not bad as the leader of the demon clan, then those demon clan must not be too bad. Will it be a knife in the back?
Even Xiahou's disciples at that time had such a mentality of being willing to believe but not daring to believe them all, but after all, they were much better than ordinary people, relying on their martial arts skills, they were not very afraid of those demons, but Have the courage to contact and even fight with them, and when the time is right, protect the people.Once this ideological problem is solved, we will enter the practical operation level.
At the beginning, there was nothing to sell on the top of the sky, and no one dared to set up a stall to sell it under the top of the sky. The situation was once in trouble.
It was Xiahou Jinxuan who thought of a way. He personally went to the nearby city to lobby the major merchants of the commercial firm, promising many favorable conditions. It was still difficult to do so alone, because the sphere of influence of Xiahou's family was in the Jiangnan area, not here, and their family His recent reputation has also been criticized by public opinion, and he is not very active in front of outsiders.
Just at this time, Huangfu Zhuo learned that he was going to come to help from Fool Trade Zone, so he used the identity of the two young masters as a guarantee to persuade some merchants to be willing to look at the face of the second of their four great families give it a try.
The next thing is much easier. In order to ensure the safety of the trade personnel sent by these merchants, Xiahou Jinxuan asked the disciples from Xiahou's family to change into casual clothes in a nearby city and enter the trade zone as their guards.On this basis, he also arranged a lot of disciples of Xiahou's family to stand guard and patrol, so that the merchants could feel at ease and communicate with the demons normally.
Then there are the demons, and these demons are no less afraid than those humans.They all carried a whole hanging of human money sent by the devil, but they were like ugly daughters-in-law who were afraid of seeing their parents-in-law, and dared not take the step down the mountain.
As for those who are bold, they usually still hate humans. These demons are very proud, and they don't bother to lower their value to do business with humans.
Jiang Cheng saw that this situation had to be broken, Jinxuan was still waiting at the foot of the mountain.He made sure that he would pay attention to protecting their safety after going down the mountain, so he brought the first wave of demons down the mountain smoothly.
After entering the trade area, those demons are not very free. Even though many of them were once human, they haven't lived the life of normal people for a long time.Those demons are used to relying on the barren land of mountains and forests to fill their stomachs. Not to mention most of them have never seen the exquisite pastries of humans, they can even stare at things like mille-feuille cakes and white cakes for a long time.
When the first demon plucked up the courage to ask a trader about the price and got a kind reply, the entire trading area was silent for a while, and then suddenly, as if a pot was blown up, countless demons flocked to him with expressions of excitement or anxiety. Items in, bought up.
They usually buy a lot, even if it is perishable like Mille-feuille, especially in a place like Futianding that has no shelf life, they still insist on buying a lot.The twentieth version of mille-feuille cake brought by that vendor was sold out in no time, and one demon insisted on buying two versions, and for this he almost got into a fight with another demon—if it wasn’t for Jiang Cheng’s mediation, in fact, I'm really going to fight.
Xiahou Jinxuan understood why they were so obsessed with grabbing so many in one go, and he knew that the deepest worry in these devils' hearts was that they might never have a chance in the future.
You Mo burst into tears on the spot after buying it. The tall man just wailed like no one else was around, but no one laughed at him.
Even after so many years, Xiahou Jinxuan would never forget that scene.
Now the situation is very different. Their Xiahou family has already restored their reputation, and the communication between humans and demons is increasing. They will no longer fear each other without limit. Best case imaginable.
Of course, there will still be some demons with unconscious lethality. In this case, Jiang Cheng has also formulated a relatively complete set of operating methods to deal with them. If no casualties are caused, they will be imprisoned first.This deterred a group of demons who wanted to kill while they were still sane, and also left more living space for other demons.
Xiahou Jinxuan believes that the blind fight between the two races will not solve any practical problems, unless one party completely wipes out the other...but this is impossible.So killing is actually a barbaric and extremely inefficient method.
It can be solved in the way of hello and me, why not use this method, but savagely rely on killing to rob?Therefore, Xiahou Jinxuan has no sympathy for the very few demons who have been dealt with.
If there is no way to be barbaric, that's all. Obviously Jiang Cheng has given a way, but he still doesn't follow the rules of the game, and he can only be expelled by the rules.
Xiahou Jinxuan has made great progress in immortality in the past few years, and after flying around him in Yufeng for a while, he reached the top of the sky.Given his relationship with Jiang Cheng, he went in without any hindrance. When he arrived, Jiang Cheng was offering incense to his second uncle, and Xiahou Jinxuan also lit incense, and followed to pay respects to Xiahou Tao.
Xia Houtao went there two years ago. His already weak body finally couldn't resist the invasion of wind and evil, and he left after lingering on the sick bed for a while.When he was alive, he played the role of helper and understander, whether it was the exchange of human and devil, or the matter of Jiang Cheng and Xiahou Jinxuan. Mother's responsibility, and the two of them have deep feelings.So Xiahou Jinxuan and Jiang Cheng were extremely saddened by his departure, and it took two years before they gradually recovered.
Xiahou Jinxuan still remembers that when he confessed this matter to his parents and his uncle, his father was furious, and bluntly said that he regretted helping Jiang Cheng and wanted to kill Jiang Cheng, but the second uncle said that he had already seen it, and it was the second uncle who stopped his father... ...Well, if his mother hadn't given birth to a younger sister, I don't know how this matter would have ended.
Maybe Xiahou Jinxuan is not even the young master Xiahou now.
The two came out after offering incense, and Jiang Cheng asked, "Why are you here? Is the family all right?"
"Everything is fine at home." Xia Hou Jinxuan grabbed Jiang Cheng's collar with a smile, leaned in front of him and said, "I miss you."
Finish.
"35 yuan a catty." Aunt Li smiled. "Ban Lu, don't you remember? I just talked about it yesterday."
"Really?" Banlu scratched his head and said with a naive smile, "It doesn't matter, give me a catty."
"Hello~" Aunt Li agreed, "37 yuan."
"Here, this is money..." The man counted, but he didn't know whether he was out of his wits or what, the money in his hand was counted over and over again, but he still couldn't count.The aunt who sold the apples couldn't stand it any longer, so she said, "Give me seven, seven, five times, and you don't want a fraction, huh?"

"No, no, I have to give it. Otherwise, the elder brother will scold me." The man insisted on giving it, but when he was in a hurry, he couldn't count.Just as he was about to choke out the sweat on his forehead, a young man in a red shirt turned around from nearby and said softly, "Let me count for you."
