fairy cage.

Chapter 77
Yu Lie was a little dazed when he heard Lao Yutou's cry of surprise.

When he came back to his senses, he quickly grabbed the other party's robe and asked anxiously, "Why?"

Old Yutou heard the sound, coughed, and regained consciousness, but he pinched his fingers and muttered, "What date is it today... Exactly!"

Old Yutou didn't answer Yu Lie's question, but made a fool of himself and shouted happily: "Brother Yu, don't worry, just follow me, it will be to your benefit!"

Immediately, Lao Yutou opened the small door of the darkroom, and pulled Yu Lie outside.

Yu Lie waited for Lao Yutou for a while, and after the other party finished dealing with the affairs in the Taoist Academy, he dragged Yu Lie to Ghost Street.

It was already dark at this time, and the two came to the entrance of Ghost Street.There were quite a few early rushers, one by one they walked into the alley, and then stood in front of the animal head called Menmen, taking out their money and wandering around.

Yu Lie and Lao Yutou got together.

When he took out his money bag and rattled the animal head to wake it up, the old Yutou who was next to him flickered and immediately sank into the wall without even making a sound from the bag.

Yu Lie turned his head, his eyes slightly surprised, and he murmured in his heart: "This little old man is really rich. Could it be that he has a spirit stone in his hand? No wonder he can get the high-ranking VIP card of the tea room."

Yu Lie has recently become a regular customer of the teahouse, and he also has a VIP card, but what he has in his hand is only a lower-rank card.

Afterwards, after Yu Lie entered the ghost street, his eyes immediately became colorful, and his ears immediately heard loud shouts. Suddenly, a hand stretched out, grabbed his sleeve, and led him to squeeze forward.

The person pulling Yu Lie was Lao Yutou, and the other party whispered: "Hurry up, hurry up! Now is the time to race against time."

Old Yutou was much more familiar with Ghost Street than Yu Lie, and led Yu Lie around in Ghost Street, took a shortcut, and suddenly came to the shop street of Ghost Street.

After skipping the small but exquisite shops, he came to a dilapidated shop without a plaque. Old Yutou put his hand on the side of the shop and knocked.

A vigilant voice came from inside the shop immediately: "Who?"

Old Yu opened his mouth and called out: "I, your uncle!"

There was the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the shop, and soon a small hidden door opened, and Yu Lie and Lao Yutou had to bow their bodies to go in.

A person in a black robe appeared in Yu Lie's eyes. The other person's face was hidden in the shadows, and he might also be wearing a face scarf, making it impossible to see the slightest clue.

Yu Lie is also dressed in a similar way. After the other party saw Yu Lie, he stared at Yu Lie closely, and then said to the old man: "You are old, what's the matter, today's sudden attack, are you here to check the accounts, or are you here?" Introduce me to a big client?"

Old Yutou didn't reply to the other party's words, but immediately said: "Close the door first, there is something important."

The man in black pulled out the mechanism in the shop with some doubts.

Yu Lie heard Ji Kuo's voice, and the noisy voice outside the shop disappeared immediately. At the same time, the man in black stomped his feet, and a dark hole appeared at the other's feet, with a faint light inside, and a ladder leading directly below.

The man in black climbed down the ladder, and Yu Lie followed them down into the cave without their explanation.

After entering the cave, Yu Lie discovered that the space underneath was much larger than the shop above.

The upper shop is only equivalent to a human head and face, while the lower hole is a human body, spacious enough to store goods.

Yu Lie saw the structure of the shops in the ghost street, and immediately understood that besides the black alleys, the regular merchants in the ghost street must have other passages or means to enter the ghost street to facilitate the delivery of goods.

The three sat around a small wooden table, and the man in black said, "What's the matter? We can talk now."

When Yu Lie heard the words, he also stared at Lao Yutou, wanting to know what the other party meant by this move.

Old Yutou said in a low voice: "The big soldiers are ahead of schedule, and there are only two or three months left."

"What?" After hearing the news, the man in black stood up from the low stool and stared at Old Yu's head:
"really?"

Yu Lie squinted his eyes and found that this person was as excited as Lao Yutou, and his voice was trembling, but it was not trembling of panic, but trembling of surprise like Lao Yutou.

Old Yutou lifted his cloak, nodded affirmatively, then pointed to Yu Lie, and said:
"It's this person who brought the news. As for who this person is, you don't need to inquire, but the old man can guarantee that this person will not talk nonsense, and his status is not low."

After hearing this, the man in black walked in the cave with a strange laugh:
"Jie Jie! Let me tell you, the rest of the towns started in the first half of the year, and our town probably won't be able to bear it until next year. But there are only two or three months left to start, and it's a little rushed."

Old Yutou said: "It's better to be in a hurry, the more urgent, the less people know about it, the more money we can make!"

The man in black clapped his hands: "Damn! I just said that there are some things today. Why did the price go up? I thought it was the goods from those stores, but they were robbed by the town next door! It must be those guys. I know..."

Old Yutou and the man in black robe, you whispered in the cave.

As Yu Lie listened, his eyes became more and more strange, and he gradually understood what the other two were talking about, and what old Yutou's so-called good thing was.

It turned out that in the shop where Yu Lie was located, Lao Yutou had a lot of shares in it.And the man in black robe is suspected to be a Daoist from Qiyuan, and they jointly opened this shop.Among them, the old Yutou is responsible for attracting customers, and the man in black is responsible for buying and selling goods, and each has its own way.

As for what the two of them were talking about, they wanted to take advantage of the fact that the prices in the town hadn't risen yet, so they could stockpile, and take advantage of the prices that were about to rise in an all-round way, to enjoy a wave of bonuses!
When Yu Lie heard this, he cursed secretly in his heart.

Thinking of someone Yu, after hearing the news from She Shuangbai, all he wanted was to save his life and take advantage of it, but when he found out, he wanted to take this opportunity to make a lot of money, or even take the initiative to drive up prices!

Simply not human!

But at the next moment, Old Yutou suddenly said: "This news is from my brother, so it should be my brother's money."

The black-robed man asked Yu Lie again: "Of course. By the way, brother, do you have capital?"

Yu Lie's ears were sharp, his eyes lit up, he coughed lightly, and said affirmatively:
"Have!"

The man in black said, "That's easy!"

The other party walked in the cave, muttering: "It's a pity, there is no high-ranking Taoist boy among us, so we have to be filial. Otherwise, not only will we not have to be filial, but we will take the opportunity to monopolize several kinds of goods, and then we can set whatever price we want." , a wave of fat ten years is possible."

The person said again: "Hey! But I know a few guys, they bought in at the beginning of the new year, and now they have lost all their underwear, and no one dares to take over. Now it's the time when the poor used to donate money, It's time to help those in need!"

After conspiring, the three briefly made a decision on the low table.Of course, Yu Lie was just listening in and revealing what kind of goods he could provide.

Such an opportunity to make a lot of money is worth the rest of his life to swallow up all the poisonous inventory!
After the agreement was made, the black-robed man was about to act in a hurry, muttering incessantly: "Time is money!"

Yu Lie looked at the excited appearance of the two people in front of him, he was still rational, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said:

"Two fellow daoists, 'big soldiers' are dangerous. Although making money is good, don't forget to prepare things for yourself."

Yu Lie cupped his hands towards the black-robed man, and shouted: "This fellow Taoist, if you have something good to save your life, you can also leave some for the poor Taoist!"

His words made the man in black who was about to go out immediately stop, and turned his head to look at Yu Lie a few times.

"Hey!" The other party suddenly let out a strange smile, and then lifted his hood.

A square face appeared in Yu Lie's eyes. The other party had gray temples and a serious middle-aged appearance, completely different from his treacherous voice.

The middle-aged Fangzheng said in a deep voice: "So that's how it turned out to be a little friend who hasn't joined the big army yet. Little friend is even willing to share this kind of news. If the poor man knows it, he will definitely pay attention to it for you!"

The opponent bowed his hand towards Yu Lie and was about to leave.

But after walking a few steps, the middle-aged Fangzheng suddenly took out a booklet from his sleeve and said, "This is the inventory from the grocery store. All the goods are available. If there is anything unclear, old Yutou Right here, little friend can also ask him."

After finishing speaking, the middle-aged Fangzheng put on his hood and cloak, and left in a hurry.

There are only Yu Lian and Lao Yutou left in the room.

Old Yu cleared his throat, took out a teapot from somewhere in the cave, bit it in his mouth, and introduced it to Yu Lie in detail:
"This is a big soldier. It comes back every 12 years. It is related to the Taoist exam. It is to force out a few more high-ranking Taoist boys."

When Yu Lie heard this, his heart skipped a beat: "Sure enough, the larger number of soldiers is training, and it has something to do with the life-and-death test for Taoist disciples!"

Old Yutou said again: "This is because several nearby towns, every 12 years, that is, every four batches of Taoist boys, will join hands to take the exam. And that money-grubber and I have a lot of money. Those who are old, settled in the town 12 years earlier, even if they are selected to go out, they will be placed in various strongholds outside the town, so they don't have to go out to fight life and death, but it is convenient to do business..."

Yu Lie instantly understood that all his guesses were correct, and that being a big soldier is a training.

This stabilized his mind and gave him a little bit of encouragement: "In this way, this is also an opportunity. The three batches of Taoist boys in the past cannot be tempered in the first three years!"

Yu Lie sat in the cave and chatted with Lao Yutou a few more words.

He raised his doubts about the "big soldiers" one by one, and Lao Yutou answered as much as possible, and his words were more specific and straightforward than what Yu Lie saw in Zangshu Pavilion.

Yu Lie also learned that the square middle-aged man who walked out just now did not limit his business to Heishui Town.The advance of Heishui Town's troops will also have an impact on the neighboring towns, especially the goods related to Heishui Town's special products.

It's just that ordinary people rarely think about this level, and even if they do, they don't have the ability and contacts to realize it, and they can't even eat soup.

After such an exchange, Yu Lie immediately felt very fortunate and happy for the act of coming to see Lao Yutou today, and thanked She Shuangbai again.

He secretly said in his heart: "A kind-hearted person will live up to the sky and make a lot of money!"

While talking, Yu Lie was also flipping through the manifest given by the middle-aged man.

Looking at it, he suddenly stared at an item in the inventory, his eyes lit up slightly, and after thinking about it for a while, his eyes showed great joy.

Yu Lie realized that he had an excellent means of saving his life!
