[Comprehensive myth] Underworld civil servants
Chapter 57, Price Increase
Gu Ning looked at the ghost in front of her, and she noticed that the costumes of the other party were genuine, different from the ones used by their ghosts.She watched him approaching step by step strangely, but she began to take precautions in her heart.
At this moment, Lao Wang opened the door and came out from the inner room. When he saw the man in front of the counter, Gu Ning noticed that he paused.But in the next second, he returned to his usual state, and came to the counter as if nothing had happened.Gu Ning automatically gave up her seat, and watched Lao Wang help the other party convert some things into adult coins.Gu Ning stared at the other party's every move. The other party's sunglasses made her feel oppressed, and she felt uneasy as if the other party was watching her all the time.She subconsciously pulled the cloak tighter, hoping to make herself safer.But obviously she was thinking too much, not to mention whether the cloak she was wearing could protect her well in this situation, after the other party got it done, they didn't say more than three sentences in the whole process, and they didn't mean to pay attention to her .
Gu Ning didn't relax until the other party left. "What happened just now? Is he also a ghost? But why is there no ghost around?"
Old Wang took out a cigarette from nowhere, held it to his mouth, and said calmly: "It's not a ghost, but it's different from you. He probably hasn't been registered in the underworld yet, so he might be a life-stealing ghost."
"Not registered? Stealing ghosts?" Gu Ning was puzzled. When she died, Tao Yu appeared at the first time. She couldn't figure out why there were ghosts that they missed.Ordinarily, with the way Tao Yu dealt with him back then, no ghost could possibly resist.Immediately, Gu Ning thought of another question, "Since he has not registered with the underworld, then we still have to handle business for him?"
"Well, although they haven't gone through the normal procedures, they are still within the Three Realms. In recent years, due to the improvement of management technology, there have been fewer and fewer ghosts stealing lives, but it is impossible to eliminate them." Old Wang shook his cigarette butt, He said again: "Besides, Tao Yu has been catching ghosts nearby recently, and he has basically cleaned up the weak ones. It is not easy to deal with people who dare to appear in broad daylight at this time. We are open for business. Can’t handle that much.”
Gu Ning was ashamed, they obviously opened a bank, and doing business was a sideline of his own, okay?
Gu Ning only found out after she came.I thought it was just a bank here, but the business was deserted and there was not much profit.So Lao Wang took advantage of the location and opened a grocery store here, selling all the things that ghosts like Tao Yu and the others brought from the underworld.Since Gu Ning came here, she not only has to work in the bank, but also helps look after the store.Although there are more jobs, Lao Wang said that he will pay wages on a monthly basis.Of course Gu Ning is happy to do this, after all, the workload in the world is very small, and it would be good to earn an extra penny.
"Okay, you are here to look at the store today. It's the beginning of the month, and I'll go to the head office to hand in the report for the previous month."
Gu Ning was still in a daze when she saw Old Wang snuff out the cigarette butt in his hand, picked up a booklet in his hand and got up to go out the door.
"Are you going to the head office?" Gu Ning looked up at him in surprise, a little envious in her heart.She also wants to go, maybe she can meet Ziyan by the way.But this kind of thing, I'm afraid she can't help her, a senior official.
"Well, we have to hand in the report every month so that the above accounts can be counted." Old Wang glanced at her, probably seeing her thoughts.He also saw Gu Ning holding the envelope secretly, and giggling while reading it.Thinking of Tao Yu's attitude, he can guess a thing or two. "You've only been here for a few days. Let you get familiar with the business first. From next month, this matter will be handled by you!" After finishing speaking, Lao Wang opened the counter and walked outside.
After Lao Wang went out, Gu Ning was very excited, she ran to the inner room and took out a pen and paper, ready to write a letter to Ziyan.She wants to share this good news with him, and looks forward to meeting him next month.
Today's weather is very good, very suitable for ghosts to travel, so Lao Wang came out early.Taking advantage of this time, he can still go shopping and buy something. He can't remember what it was like when he went shopping last time.Halfway through, he suddenly remembered that there was still a business to deal with today, and he hadn't had time to tell her the price yet.But after thinking about it, the value of that thing is only so small, even if she sells it casually, she can still make money.Even if the price is lowered, it's just a small profit, nothing serious.
Gu Ning was writing half of the letter here, when there was a knocking sound on the counter, Gu Ning quickly raised her head and found that there was a customer.She hurriedly put away the envelopes, looked up and found that it was the guy who almost caught her before.
"What's the matter?" Gu Ning said in a cold voice.She is still remembering the previous hatred.
The other party glanced at him hesitantly, looked left and right, and said, "Where's the previous boss?"
"He's gone out and won't be back for a while. It's the same if you tell me anything."
Although the other party seemed a little unwilling, but he seemed a little anxious, which made Gu Ning start to fight in his heart.
"Some time ago, I asked the boss to help me order the Wangchuan water. I don't know if it has arrived. I would like to ask the lady to take a look for me."
"Wangchuan water?" Gu Ning rolled her eyes while talking, and this kind of thing is actually being sold?The underworld doesn't want money, and no one wants it. Isn't it just the bath water of those ghosts? Although they have been soaked in it all year round, they have somewhat of the power inside, but no one in the underworld wants it.
Although she was amused by the sale of Wangchuanshui, Gu Ning still did not forget to find Wangchuanshui at the grocery stall.There is a Wangchuan River behind her house, so she is somewhat familiar with the river water, and found a small porcelain bottle from the counter after a while.Gu Ning opened it and took a look. After confirming that it was Wangchuan water, she weighed the bottle in her hands and found that the weight of the water was estimated to be less than 5 taels.The bottle does look pretty nice though.
Gu Ning handed the bottle in front of him, and said, "Here, Wangchuanshui."
The other party quickly reached out to catch the bottle, but Gu Ning took the opportunity to take the bottle back, spread her other hand out in front of him, and signaled him to pay first.
"Oh, I know." The other party understood clearly, took out a few red heads from his pocket, drew three out of the inside, and handed them over.
Gu Ning smiled and said, "It's 888 RMB in total, thank you for your patronage!"
"Huh?" The Taoist was stunned, and said, "Isn't it all three hundred before?"
"You should know that the drought has started in all provinces recently, and the rivers in many places are almost dry." Gu Ning said with a smile.In fact, it is already autumn now, and the vegetation in various places has begun to wither, and drought is also a normal phenomenon.In addition, the weather is getting warmer now, and the rain has not come down for several years.
"That's right." The other party nodded, but he still couldn't figure out what the drought in the world had to do with their price increase.
"The world is dry, and the underworld will naturally be affected. The river water of the Wangchuan River is still used by the underworld. Nowadays, the gate of ghosts is strictly guarded. This time, we have used several people to bring the river water to you. Combining all The reason is that the cost this time must be much higher than the previous ones, and the price will naturally go up." Gu Ning said so clearly that the other party was unable to explain for a while.Although he has a lot of research on ghost hunting, and has opened his eyes, he can clearly see things in the two worlds of yin and yang.But as a living person, he has never been to the underworld, and he doesn't understand any of what Gu Ning told her here.But he understood one thing, the other party wanted to raise the price, but he didn't like the price increase.
"Yes, but this increase is really too much." He didn't know the reason for the price increase, but in the Taoist's view, if the increase was small, he might be able to accept it, but it suddenly increased by nearly three times The price is really too much for him.
"Hey." Gu Ning sighed, and seemed to feel that she had paid too much, "I also know that it may be a bit expensive, so it's better than this. I'll give you a fraction, 880. I think the boss is back and knows you are Old customers, certainly don’t say much.”
"880?" The Taoist's face was ugly, but he still felt that it was a bit expensive, "Can it be cheaper?"
"Brother Dao, it's not that I don't want to give you a cheap price, but I can't decide the price. If I give you too much cheap today, the boss will probably fire me by then. As a small employee, I can't You don’t know how to frame you. 880 is really cheap. Don’t even think about it. The water bottle alone is worth the price. How can ordinary bottles hold Zhuwangchuan water? Trust me, this is the only thing Not to mention 880 yuan, even if you pay 1000 yuan to buy it, it's still worth it." Gu Ning said it in such a serious manner that people didn't believe it.
Hearing what Gu Ning said, the other party actually looked down at the bottle in Gu Ning's hand.In my heart, I really started to think, why didn't I notice this bottle before.He had several bottles before that.
Seeing that the other party hesitated, Gu Ning whispered in his ear again: "Let me tell you the truth, the boss is actually going to sell this item for 8.88. If it wasn't because he was promoted recently, he specially called A [-]% discount, you can’t get this price now. If you come a few days later, it probably won’t be this price. I waived a fraction for you, and you must not tell others, otherwise everyone It’s all like this, I can’t eat in front of the boss and walk away.”
As soon as Gu Ning said that the price would increase, the Taoist immediately said: "Don't say anything, girl. I bought this thing." After speaking, he began to count the money in Gu Ning's hand.
Gu Ning retrieved his 20 yuan, watched him leave the store with a smile, and waved: "Bye bye."
After the other party left, Gu Ning shook the red tickets in her hand, feeling excited.She never knew that her eloquence could be so good, and the other party really believed it.It was really unexpected.
After some teasing, Gu Ning felt that her mood became better.He didn't even care so much about the other party catching him before.Gu Ning thought with a smile, for the sake of obediently being duped, she should forgive him.
In fact, she is quite generous.
At this moment, Lao Wang opened the door and came out from the inner room. When he saw the man in front of the counter, Gu Ning noticed that he paused.But in the next second, he returned to his usual state, and came to the counter as if nothing had happened.Gu Ning automatically gave up her seat, and watched Lao Wang help the other party convert some things into adult coins.Gu Ning stared at the other party's every move.
