Chapter 420: The commoners of Changancheng are crazy, cut it to hand, no worries for a year!

~8 min read 1,485 words

Meanwhile.

Changancheng East Market.

An elegant mansion exuded an ancient aura, and the black door plaque was inscribed with the vigorous and powerful characters "Xie Mansion".

The Xie family, one of the three great merchants of Changancheng, had stood firm since the founding of the Great Qian. The family even possessed an ancestral gold medal of immunity from death. They were wealthy and had a strong foundation.

At this very moment.

In the courtyard.

A pavilion was located in the center, next to which was an artificial lake. Koi fish swam leisurely in the water, with red scales and white fins. A woman wearing a black long dress and a veil extended her slender jade hands and sprinkled fish food. The koi in the pond immediately scrambled for it.

Behind her were two middle-aged wealthy merchants drinking tea.

"Eldest Miss, there is still no news about that Bai Yu Sugar."

"The person behind the scenes seems to have forgotten about it."

A maid wearing a green long dress walked up quickly and looked respectfully at the woman in black.

Xie Anran sprinkled the last handful of fish food in her hand, and her cold voice sounded.

"How is the visiting card I ordered you to send? Has Lord Gao of the Duke of the State's Prefecture replied?"

Xie Anran asked.

The maid shook her head, "Ever since the Great Chu was defeated, that Living Yama seems to have disappeared."

"Does Miss suspect that this Bai Yu Sugar is the method of Lord Gao from the Duke of the State's Prefecture?"

Xie Anran looked at the fish scrambling for food in the pond and said slowly, "It's not a suspicion, it's a certainty."

"This Bai Yu Sugar is exactly the same as the previous soap."

"With such a move, apart from that Living Yama, there is no one else in the entire Changancheng. Once he makes a move, the three of us will probably suffer a dimensionality reduction strike!"

Xie Anran's pretty face was cold and full of worry.

At this time, a pot-bellied middle-aged wealthy merchant behind her snorted coldly.

"The three of us joined forces, what is there to be afraid of? That Bai Yu Sugar price can't go up. Even that Living Yama will have to bow his head and take the initiative to cooperate with us!"

The head of the Zhao family also snorted coldly.

"That's right, a strong dragon doesn't suppress a local snake. We have been in business for decades and are deeply trusted by the commoners. It's not that easy for him to snatch business!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in unison.

But Xie Anran's beautiful eyes still frowned.

"I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that this Living Yama will use strange tricks and not give us time to react."

"In that case, it will be really troublesome."

The heads of the two families said in unison, "Family Head Xie worries too much. In terms of business tactics, there are only those few tricks."

"Different trades are like mountains. Even if he is a Living Yama, he can't stir up any waves."

Several people said very confidently.

But Xie Anran smiled very reluctantly.

"I hope this is all just me overthinking."

"..."

The next day.

A ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds, covering the entire Changancheng. Vermilion Bird Street was bustling with people, carriages and horses, and the hawking of vendors resounded through the clouds.

The entire Changancheng was full of vitality.

At the same time, a new shop called Bai Yu Pavilion also opened its doors, and Chen Sheng began to shout.

"New store opening, just for popularity, specially launching a special event that is hard to find even if you break your legs."

"If you are brothers, then come and help me cut it once!"

"As long as there are many brothers, Bai Yu Sugar, worth twelve strings of cash, traveled ten thousand miles from the Western Regions, can prolong life, and strengthen the kidneys and yang, can be taken home for free!"

Following Chen Sheng's shouting, the pedestrians on the street also gathered around one after another.

"Hiss!"

"Bai Yu Sugar that came ten thousand miles from the Western Regions, strengthens the kidneys and yang, and can prolong life if eaten?"

"What is called brothers cutting once? Can you really take Bai Yu Sugar worth twelve strings of cash home for free?"

"I, Niu Er, am suspicious by nature. There is no way to deceive me!"

The voices of the commoners followed one after another, gathering around one after another, full of curiosity.

Chen Sheng also spoke, introducing the rules of the spinning wheel.

"Three spinning wheels, the first spinning wheel has eleven chances, the second spinning wheel has thirty chances, and the third spinning wheel has no limit on the number of times!"

"In short, if you are lucky enough, you only need twenty friends and relatives, and that is enough to take Bai Yu Sugar worth twelve strings of cash home."

"And, if you are not satisfied with Bai Yu Sugar, we can cash it out on the spot!"

Following these words, the commoners couldn't sit still.

Bai Yu Sugar, cash out!

These words were crazily impacting their hearts.

A strong man couldn't help but say, "Let me, Niu Er, come. I have had good luck since I was young!"

Chen Sheng had a smile on his face and stepped aside directly.

The strong man spun the spinning wheel hard, and his eyes stared fixedly.

Soon, the pointer stopped on the one thousand wen grid.

Chen Sheng said loudly, "Congratulations to this guest, your luck is explosive, you directly cut one thousand wen off the Bai Yu Sugar worth twelve strings of cash. If you maintain this luck, you only need twenty people, and you can take the precious Bai Yu Sugar home!"

"Hiss!"

"It cut off one thousand wen at once. It doesn't seem to take many people."

The commoners discussed it one after another.

But some people also said, "But if the luck is worse, doesn't it take a lot of people? I see the third spinning wheel, why are there gold coins, mice, and so on?"

But as soon as these words were spoken, they were immediately retorted by others.

"According to what you say, if you have no luck and no connections, it would be better to just give you the Bai Yu Sugar that can be cashed out and is worth twelve strings of cash!"

"That's right, if this is cut to hand, the whole family will have no worries for a year. If there is no luck, then you need connections. This is very conscientious!"

Instantly, the person who spoke was sprayed until he couldn't speak.

Niu Er was also excited and said to Chen Sheng: "Then I will go pull people now, will it count later?"

Chen Sheng nodded, with a smile: "This naturally counts, but when you spin the wheel, these people must follow behind you."

Niu Er was excited, "This is naturally no problem."

He turned and ran to pull people.

Chen Sheng continued to speak, "Action is better than heart, is there anyone else who wants to try?"

For a time, the commoners spoke one after another.

"Me!"

"I will also try. It's not that I'm bragging, I not only have good luck, but I also have first-class connections in this Changancheng!"

"This Bai Yu Sugar, I am determined to get it today!"

One by one, the commoners began to spin the wheel, and then rushed out in a hurry, obviously to pull people.

In an old mansion in Changancheng, someone was cooking in the kitchen, and Niu Er rushed in directly.

"Brother Li San, are we brothers?"

This person named Li San was stunned, and then spoke.

"Between you and me, we have grown up wearing the same pair of pants since we were young. Saying this makes us distant."

Li San looked unhappy.

"Then help me cut it once."

The next second, Li San took a kitchen knife and was about to go out.

"Damn it, just say it, who are we cutting?"

Niu Er hurriedly grabbed Li San and explained, "It's not cutting people, it's a 'cut it once' game at a place called Bai Yu Pavilion at the east end of the city. Pulling people gives spinning wheel chances. As long as you pull enough people and have enough luck, you can get Bai Yu Sugar worth twelve strings of cash for free!"

"What? There is such a good thing?"

Niu Er looked at Li San, looking anxious, "Brother Li San, I know too few people, but I cut one thousand wen alone. Can you help me pull more people?"

Li San hesitated a little, but nodded, "Brother Niu Er, don't worry, I will help you pull people to cut it once." ===== CHAPTER 422 =====
