Chapter 57: Harvest

The Landing Money Chamber of Commerce has a very advanced business philosophy. In order to expand its popularity, it created the concept of "brand mascot" and invited the painting master Xuan Daozi to design it. After three drafts, the first draft was finally determined to be the mascot.

The first draft was a little fat pig holding a coin in its hand, looking very pleasant.

After the Landing Money Chamber of Commerce had a brand mascot, it really expanded its popularity and achieved remarkable results. Many merchants followed suit after learning about it and had their own unique mascots.

The tofu shop on the front street of Yanjiang County is one of them.

Qin Yuanhao didn't really kill the younger brother. After calming down and thinking about it, the younger brother worked solidly and never made mistakes. If he couldn't find anyone, then he really couldn't find anyone.

It couldn't be that the tofu shop mascot really ran out to spread rumors.

"Looking so conspicuous and still can't be found, it seems that a fellow demonic sect member wants to frame me!" Qin Yuanhao sneered. How could he not guess that this was someone doing it on purpose, but he didn't know who did it.

This is not uncommon in the demonic sect. Qin Yuanhao himself has done things to harm his companions.

After so long, all clues were gone, and Qin Yuanhao could only swallow this dumb loss and calculate who to settle accounts with later.

"Since you can't find him, then don't look for him anymore."

Qin Yuanhao took a stack of paper and a few pieces of silver from his arms and threw them to the younger brother.

This is also one of the reasons for not killing people. The work arranged by the branch leader must be done by someone. If he killed them, where would he find people now?

"Early tomorrow morning, you gather the brothers, go to the eight nearby counties, and secretly spread these papers to the black market. This silver is your allowance and travel expenses for this month. Do you hear me clearly!"

"He-hear clearly." The younger brother was startled by Qin Yuanhao's last shout.

"Louder."

"Hear clearly!" The younger brother straightened his back and shouted again, shouting until his neck turned red.

The aunt next door said angrily, hearing it clearly through the wall: "Do you know what time it is now? What are you shouting about!"

The aunt next door's voice was louder than the younger brother's.

A murderous intent flashed in Qin Yuanhao's eyes.

"Big Brother, the other party is a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator who came here to live in seclusion," the younger brother hurriedly said. Many cultivators like to play in the world. Maybe the one selling barbecue on the street is a cultivator.

Qin Yuanhao snorted coldly, didn't say much, and left here.

The younger brother yawned, thinking to himself that the boss finally left, and fell asleep.

He had to get up early to work tomorrow.

The younger brother often received some inexplicable tasks arranged by Qin Yuanhao. For the sake of confidentiality, Qin Yuanhao didn't tell them anything, just let them do it.

This time was the same.

After the younger brother fell asleep, Lu Yang drilled out of the soil, took away three pieces of paper, and followed Qin Yuanhao.

Qin Yuanhao came out to find his younger brother, and after explaining the matter, he went back.

When Qin Yuanhao passed by the "Come Again" barbecue shop, he stopped for a moment.

"I just went into seclusion for four days, and a new barbecue shop opened? And it's so popular?"

Qin Yuanhao had the idea of having a meal. Being crowded is nothing. At worst, he could cut in line. A Foundation Establishment stage cultivator coming to your small place to eat and not letting you kneel to welcome him is already not bad, and you still want to queue?

In the end, Qin Yuanhao dismissed this idea. Barbecue is something that needs many people to eat to have an atmosphere. Eating alone is ultimately less fun.

"Let's talk about it later."

Qin Yuanhao went home.

Lu Yang returned to the barbecue shop to help. As soon as he went back, he saw Meng Jingzhou performing crosstalk, and the diners were applauding, shouting for him to come again.

Lu Yang took a deep breath. You two really want to make the barbecue shop big and strong.

Meng Jingzhou felt Lu Yang's knife-like eyes, hurriedly closed his mouth, honestly became a waiter, and ignored the diners no matter how they shouted.

After working for a while, the diners dispersed one after another, and the barbecue shop finally became quiet.

The two chang-ghosts tidied up the grill and bowls and chopsticks, counted the ingredients consumed today, estimated the amount of ingredients needed to be purchased tomorrow, and the three sat on the second floor, talking about today's harvest.

"How much silver did we earn today?" Meng Jingzhou rubbed his hands and asked excitedly. Starting a business from scratch gave him a sense of accomplishment.

"Who told you this was the harvest!" Lu Yang slapped the table and glared, "Did you forget what we came here for?"

"Open a chain store?" Seeing Man Gu was still thinking about making the family business big and strong.

Lu Yang stopped paying attention to these two idiots, took out three pieces of paper, and repeated the situation of tracking tonight.

"Blank paper?"

Meng Jingzhou looked at the front and back of a piece of paper, but couldn't see anything.

Lu Yang didn't know how to use this paper either: "Qin Yuanhao asked people to spread these papers to the black market. There must be information on the paper, but I don't know how to read it."

"Is it a unique communication method between demonic paths?"

Meng Jingzhou nodded, agreeing with Lu Yang's guess: "Very likely, these sneaky guys always like to make some secret codes or something."

"This is a paper for all demonic cultivators. All demonic cultivators can understand it. With our Foundation Establishment stage eyesight, we can't see the words on the paper, and Qi Condensation stage demonic cultivators can't see it even more."

"So the problem is not with the secret code, but with the paper."

Lu Yang thought about it and roasted the paper over the charcoal fire.

"What is this for?" Seeing Man Gu didn't understand.

Lu Yang roasted the paper seriously and said casually: "I read in a book that if you write on paper with sugar water, there will be no words on the paper after it dries. You need high temperature to remove the water in the sugar, and brown words will appear."

Meng Jingzhou and Seeing Man Gu felt this knowledge point was very interesting.

After roasting for about five minutes, there was nothing on the paper, so Lu Yang had to give up this method.

Lu Yang summoned a small ball of water in his palm, squeezed it violently, and in an instant, the splashed water mist fell on the white paper.

"What is this for again?"

Lu Yang explained: "Special liquids like shower gel and laundry detergent have good water absorption. If you write with these special liquids, you can't see anything after it dries. Only by sprinkling water on the paper surface and using the principle of different water absorption speeds can the words appear."

The Central Continent looks like ancient times, but it is not. Due to the existence of spells, whether intentional or coincidental, many products that do not belong to ancient times have appeared here.

For example, the shower gel and laundry detergent mentioned by Lu Yang.

Unfortunately, there was still nothing on the paper.

Lu Yang was not discouraged. He pondered for a moment and thought of a new way.

"Since this is a way of contact between demonic paths, maybe it needs to be unlocked by demonic path methods?"

Lu Yang bit his thumb, and a few drops of blood dripped onto the paper. The blood seemed to come alive, wandering on the paper surface.

"Sure enough, this is the demonic way of refining paper, which cannot be judged by common sense." Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, finally successful.

There seemed to be invisible grooves on the white paper. The blood would fill the grooves as it passed, forming words.

"On the first day of the fourth month, the Decayed Sect Yanjiang Branch recruits members. The specific location will be announced the day before recruitment." ===== CHAPTER 58 =====
