You are such a master

Chapter 18 Business Competition

Gu Ran looked at the counter in front of him with black lines all over his head, which reached the height of his nose. When will he grow taller is also a headache.

"At the order of the sect, I came to investigate the recent troubles." Gu Ran put the token given to him by his senior brother on the counter.

The hand of the shopkeeper who was thinking about the abacus paused for a moment, Yu Guangyun touched the top of Gu Ran's hair, his expression was a little unconcerned, what kind of business can such a small child do... and his eyes swept away again, and he saw the order on the table. After the card, his expression froze instantly.

The most familiar Xuanjianzong logo, but the sword energy contained in the red hidden grid above made the shopkeeper a little speechless.This is the suzerain's sword energy, which cannot be mistaken.

"Please...Your Honor, follow your subordinates to the cabinet to discuss in detail." The shopkeeper's spiritual sense scanned the surroundings to confirm that there were no suspicious temptations from others.Then he sent the words to Gu Ran's ear through sound transmission.

Although the people around were a little curious, as far as Gu Ran's clothes were concerned, they only treated him like a young master of a noble family with an unusual status.

The cabinet is simply a lightly decorated study, the upper shelves are full of ledgers and books, and some rare collections are also shelved on it.

Seeing this, Gu Ran couldn't help being a little bit surprised, and only after his spiritual sense swept across the study room did he suddenly understand.To be able to display these relatively valuable items carelessly on the surface, the cabinet's restrictions are very strict.

This shopkeeper seems to have already cultivated in the foundation establishment period, and his spiritual power is a bit muddy due to the miscellaneous spiritual roots, so he is not a person with outstanding talent in cultivating immortals.But in terms of management, he is very good. In his hands, this shop can be said to be making thousands of dollars every day.

"These are the recent ledgers. The deficit is the profit, and the blue letter is the loss." The shopkeeper made a cup of tea for Gu Ran, then took down the rightmost ledgers from the bookshelf and put them in front of Gu Ran.

Gu Ran turned around, the first part of the ledger record was always in a state of profit, but in the latter part, that is, starting seven days ago, the profit weakened to a loss.

"What happened?" Gu Ran put down the ledger and asked directly.

The shopkeeper looked at his immature face. At this age, he is still an ignorant child in the common world, but now he wants to analyze the profit-making activities... Isn't it inappropriate?

Gu Ran looked at the shopkeeper's hesitant face, and knew that his current age was not convincing.But in the world of comprehension, it's not a problem to solve problems with fists.

"Senior brother said that the operation and development of the store are all according to your ideas. I just came here on behalf of my sect to solve some troubles." Gu Ran said that he was just a thug to support the facade. The gap is too big, and he, a cultivator in the foundation period... feels like he has more energy than he wants.

The shopkeeper sighed, and told about the recent troubles.

"I don't know if it's a force that came out of nowhere, and opened a spiritual weapon shop in a street shop. The range not far from the gate of our Xuanjianzong Mountain has always been dominated by us as the host, but this shop not only Drive here to grab business, and the spiritual artifacts sold are also a bit weird, and they can't be integrated with the spiritual artifacts sold in other shops..."

The shopkeeper's words were clear, and he chose the easiest to understand words to say to Gu Ran.

This back and forth, Gu Ran also understood.In modern times, it is malicious commercial competition. "Spiritual artifacts" cannot be combined with spiritual artifacts made by other shops. The two are mutually exclusive, and the flow of customers will become two distinct streams.

And most of the spirit weapons from that new shop are of better quality and cheaper than those from the Xuanjian Sect.Therefore, most of the passenger flow is taken away by the new store.

"I also sent people to buy some of those weird spiritual artifacts." The shopkeeper took out a storage ring. "If he continues like this, I will definitely not tolerate letting him dominate. This in itself is close to the power of my Xuanjianzong. There is no reason for the host to let him go. But I can't find a reason for it for a while, and I don't know that the owner of this shop is so close. What power is it under?"

Gu Ran checked the storage ring with his spiritual sense, and took out those spiritual weapons with his spiritual power.

On the exquisite jade fan, a diamond-shaped logo was vivid... The expression on Gu Ran's face became a little subtle with the appearance of this logo.

The protagonist is the exclusive logo of the series, and the author even posted a picture on Weibo to describe it.It can be said that it is now a perfect replica.

That new store was actually owned by the protagonist?Isn't he stretching out his hand too fast?As far as he knew, the plot should be that two years after the villain Gu Ran and the protagonist attacked Chu Shaoqing and joined the Xuanjian Sect, the protagonist Shoucai joined the Qingxiao School.Then he pretended to be stupid and beat monsters all the way to slowly expand his power.

It has been less than a year since his villain, Gu Ran, joined Xuanjianzong... Has the protagonist's store opened to the Xuanjianzong's feet? ? ?

Gu Ran's expression became serious. He originally thought that his understanding of the plot of the original novel could prevent something in advance.It seems to be all futile now... But what Gu Ran doesn't understand is why the plot moves so much faster?Even if he changed something midway, it wouldn't have much impact on the main line.

"...What news does Your Honor know?" The shopkeeper is a smart person, and he roughly guessed something from the change in Gu Ran's expression.

"Go and help me find out where this logo still appears. If there are no accidents... it probably came from the Qingxiao faction, but not all of them." Gu Ran is not quite sure whether Qing Zichu has it now Enter the Qingxiao School.

"Okay, this subordinate will arrange it now."

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Gu Ran nodded, watching the hurried shopkeeper stride away before continuing to turn his gaze back to the spiritual weapon in his hand.

A touch of spiritual power was input from the end of the folding fan, and the spiritual weapon was quickly activated, and the whole fan emitted a soft light.

"It should be using the ancient lost refining method... But shouldn't this be the chance that Qing Zichu got after ascending to the fairy world?" Gu Ran analyzed the plot with some headaches, but he still couldn't think of any reason.

But even though he didn't think it through clearly, Gu Ran also had the idea of ​​going to the shop opened by Qing Zichu.In order to further understand the enemy's situation without revealing his identity, Gu Ran groped in the Qiankun bag and found a mask.

This is a mask given by his brother in charge. Cultivators have many ways to hide their identity. The magic of this mask is that it can blur the face. If you don't reach the Golden Core stage, you won't be able to tell that Gu Ran is wearing it. A mask, but if the cultivation base is not up to the stage of transforming gods, Gu Ran's original appearance and breath cannot be seen.

On the bustling street, a young man in satin blue and plain came out of the largest Spirit Sword Hall, turned a corner and walked slowly towards the nearest busiest place.

"Qingchu Pavilion..." Gu Ran looked at these three words with a subtle expression. In the later stages of the plot, Qing Zichu also liked to name some influential shops with the word "Qingchu". The protagonist, Gong Chu Shaoqing, confirms the relationship between double cultivation and begins to show his affection in a high-profile way.

But now...

Qing Zichu probably hasn't met Chu Shaoqing yet, right?Could this Qingchu Pavilion be a coincidence? !Such a coincidence in the world, unless... Gu Ran suddenly came back to his senses, and several conjectures that he had ignored before also emerged.

Is this Qingzichu the original product?If I have already passed through it myself, it is also possible that Qing Zichu's identity is passed on by someone else!

Thinking about it carefully, Gu Ran only felt that the current speculation was more reasonable. If it was true, then the plot advantage he originally occupied seemed to be worthless to the current "Qing Zichu"?

"This little customer, what do you want to buy in the shop?"

Gu Ran thought about it for thousands of miles, but after all, he was still standing in front of Qingchu Pavilion, and the attendant in charge of reception had already greeted him with a smile at the door.

Forget it, here we come.Gu Ran raised his foot and walked towards Qingchu Pavilion, "I'll just turn around by myself, and I'll call you if there is someone I like."

The attendant was slightly taken aback by Gu Ran's attitude, and then returned to his original position.Cultivation monks each have their own hobbies, but at Gu Ran's age... it seems that not many are unkind.However, the most basic introduction is still necessary. "Okay. The Qingchu Pavilion is divided into three floors, and the higher up the spiritual artifacts are, the rarer they are."

"Well, I got it." Gu Ran's spiritual consciousness swept the hall on the first floor, most of the spiritual weapons were relatively common, and some of them were not comparable to those of the Spirit Sword Hall, but—they's prices are cheap.

I don't know if the rare spirit weapon can tell the difference, but Gu Ran withdrew his consciousness and walked up the wooden ladder step by step.

The number of people on the upper level is almost half that of the lower level, presumably there should be quite a few people on the top level.Gu Ran glanced upwards inadvertently, but happened to meet a pair of eyes as deep as a secluded lake.
