Chapter 615: Ghost Eyes·Guo Fan? Lost both money and life

"Brother Yuan hasn't come back yet?"

At the cashier counter, Guo Fan asked again, which made Liu Qingqing a little impatient, "What's wrong with you? Don't you know that Brother Yuan sent Wang Chaling's family to the Gengshen Year? How many times have I asked you this? You are not annoyed, and you even left your post without permission. What, do you not want to do this anymore?"

Do you really think of yourself as the boss lady?
Guo Fan was so angry that he laughed, but he only dared to mutter a few words in his heart. After all, he was very clear about the difference in status between himself and Liu Qingqing.

Here, who is more valued by Him can be seen by looking at their positions.

Liu Qingqing is in charge of a department (commemorative coin exchange office), unlike him, who can only take care of a ghost rental and has no business.

This also made him want to snatch the ghost catcher from Fang Shiming even more.

Don’t look down on Guo Fan because he is poor!
Guo Fan was angry in his heart, but he could only smile a few words on the surface. Then he was about to turn around and go to the store door to get close to the ghost guard Lao Fan who was on guard.

In the past, he always avoided the ghost catcher Lao Fan.

There was nothing he could do about it. The ghost catcher Lao Fan always liked to "touch and touch" him because of the puzzle. How could he have tolerated it before?
It is different now.

With Fang Shiming's suggestion of controlling the ghost messenger Lao Fan through marriage, now that they are married, it would be easier for people to accept than just doing it physically.

Moreover.

It is working hours now, and the working hours set by the "store manager" are like the rules of killing for the ghost catcher, and cannot be changed.

Unless it is time to get off work, the ghost messenger Lao Fan will not make any actions that are inconsistent with his job unless the "store manager" speaks.

Even if there is the temptation of doing a puzzle, you can definitely resist it. This is the importance of rules!
"I'm just familiarizing myself with the process in advance. Don't show resistance when the time comes to grab the bride. If Brother Yuan finds out, you'll be completely defeated."

Guo Fan arrived at the door and looked at the ghost messenger, Lao Fan, whose complexion was ashen and who emanated a cold aura. He instantly forgot the words he had prepared.

No matter how well he had planned, when it came to "confessing" or even "talking about love" with the ghost catcher Lao Fan, the uncomfortable feeling in his heart could not be shaken off.

no way.

Although he no longer has to worry about the revival of evil spirits, he is different from Fang Shiming and others. He has not become an alien, but is still a normal person who has mastered supernatural powers.

His emotions were not suppressed, and as a normal person, even his aesthetic taste did not change.

In this situation, it is really difficult to pursue the ghost catcher Lao Fan. Unlike Wei Jing, there is no need to worry about any negative psychological effects. Everything is just for work and there is no personal emotion involved.

"How could Fang Shiming have the heart to eat such a thing? Is he really so hungry that he won't choose what to eat?"

Guo Fan took a deep breath, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket and opened a document with a lot of rhetoric on it.

Of course, it was not used to do evil, but in order to appear more realistic, he specially downloaded some love words from the Internet last night.

Although it looks more like a cheesy love talk.

Of course, these are not important. As long as she can show her loving relationship with the ghost catcher Lao Fan in front of the "store manager" and not be suspected by the "store manager", that would be the best result.

Fortunately, it was not meal time and there were few customers coming and going, so there was no need to worry about being laughed at.

Colleagues Liu Qingqing, Xianglan, and Tong Qian laughed at him. Although he felt a little embarrassed, he could accept it. After all, when the bride was snatched away, everyone except Xianglan would be there.

If he can't adapt now, won't he be even more frustrated when the time comes to officially grab the bride?

Finally, Guo Fan prepared himself mentally.

"Lao Fan, I have something to say to you. After hearing that you and Xiao Fang were going to get married, my heart has been in agony. I can't imagine you being with anyone else. It would make me extremely painful, not to mention Xiao Fang, a gorilla? You two are simply not suitable for each other, and the person who is most suitable for you is..."

Guo Fan suddenly stopped, because in his deep emotion, he suddenly realized that he had not said anything just now, and was just silently reciting these prepared words in his heart.

But why is there a sound, and why is it coming from behind me?

Guo Fan looked back in confusion and almost jumped up in fright, "Brother Yuan? When did you come back? Why didn't you make any sound?"

"What do you mean no sound at all? I was reading your love letter. Although the voice is not loud, you can't be so hard of hearing, right? Or, your heart was so focused on Lao Fan that you didn't notice it?" Lin Yuan said seriously, but his eyes were full of smiles.

This kind of smile is not a smile of blessing, but a smile of ridicule.

He didn't need to take care of the things happening in the Gengshen year for the time being. He also left the next ten hours to Wang Lu and his family of three to see what they could achieve.

There is no need to worry about anything happening to Wang Cha Ling.

Even if he really died, it would be the corpse that died again, and Wang Cha Ling's consciousness was protected by the maintenance device and could be brought back to reality.

It's just like a virtual game, except that the way of playing and the way of saying it are changed.

There is nothing we can do about this.

Time travel is a big project, and he is planning to do it well. If there are casualties at this time, this business will definitely face considerable resistance, and the loss will outweigh the gain.

Whose family doesn’t have a few elders?

Whether they are from the headquarters, the civilian ghost-controlling organizations, or simply lone rangers, these people are resources that Lin Yuan values ​​very much.

Not just themselves, but also their...the identity background of their ancestors.

If it were an ordinary person, it would be easy to deal with and Lin Yuan would not take it too seriously. But if he had the background of a ghost rider, even if he was pitifully weak, as long as Lin Yuan was willing, he would be able to support him and let him dedicate his life as a slave to the Peace Hotel of that time and space.

The extent to which Wang Chaling and others can achieve will also determine what kind of support Lin Yuan can provide to them in the future.

But these are all matters for the future. There are still many things to deal with in reality, the first of which is the marriage between Fang Shiming and the ghost catcher Lao Fan.

The headquarters was opposed to this and had prepared two qualified people who were ready to snatch the bride at any time.

This was a very lively event. Although it did not help much to the development of the Peace Hotel, it had a significant impact on Lin Yuan's mood.

The ghost messenger, Lao Fan, has long been assimilated into the puzzle of the Peace Hotel.

Fang Shiming wants to use marriage as a medium to completely control the ghost catcher, Lao Fan, and possess the ability of a ghost catcher. This is a very good method.

Unfortunately, that was before the Ghost Messenger Lao Fan was assimilated... That's not right, if the Ghost Messenger Lao Fan had not become a piece of the puzzle of the Peace Hotel, Fang Shiming's method would have been impossible to control the Ghost Messenger.

Everything has pros and cons.

The idea proposed by Fang Shiming this time also gave Lin Yuan a new idea. Taking the puzzles in his own store out for "marriage" might be a way to gain a lot of resources.

Just like this wedding, people who come to the wedding can't come empty-handed, right?
As the "mother's family" of the ghost catcher Lao Fan, and a very powerful one at that, Fang Shiming would probably give most of the gift money without him saying much.

There are still quite a few puzzles in the store, so even if you don’t have what you want, you can always make a few more.

After all, this was just a variation of paying him to help tame the wild beasts at the Peace Hotel, except the price was countless times higher.

What Lin Yuan cares about most is how much pleasure and resources he can get from such an opportunity. He really doesn't care about anything else.

No matter whether the person who marries the ghost catcher Lao Fan is Fang Shiming, Wei Jing or Guo Fan, as long as it can bring him enough benefits, that is the most fundamental reason!
It was for this reason that he did not show any formal inclination last night, nor did he directly express his disagreement to Wei Jing and Guo Fan just because he agreed to the marriage between Fang Shiming and Lao Fan.

Moreover, for this reason, he was now simply teasing Guo Fan and had no intention of stopping him.

Who made this kid really give him a lot of joy? He even wrote down the notes in advance and was ready to read them here. Is this how you date in your family?

Guo Fan felt a little embarrassed by the laughter, but then he became serious, "Brother Yuan, I really like Lao Fan, I want to be with him."

Having just experienced such an embarrassing thing, he really doesn't care about his face anymore. Getting actual benefits is the most important thing.

Lin Yuan waved his hand and interrupted Guo Fan. "I don't get involved in emotional matters. Like I said before, emotional issues are personal issues. You are just employees of the store. You don't need me to decide even such matters. But there is one thing I must remind you. You can't let this affect the business of the store. Do you understand?"

How could Guo Fan not understand?

Not only should it not affect the store's business, it is best to take this opportunity to bring profits to the store, so as to get the support of the "store manager".

This is a well-known truth.

Guo Fan nodded immediately and did not mention the matter again. Instead, he prepared to go back and discuss with the headquarters how to satisfy the "store manager", or in other words, how much support the headquarters could give him.

You can't just talk without taking any real action, right?
If that were the case, then Guo Fan would have a legitimate reason to leave the headquarters, and he did not put all his hopes on the headquarters. This was the main reason why he came to Lin Yuan today: "Brother Yuan, I want to open a branch store, just like Xiao Liu and Xiao He, is that okay?" Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I remember your hometown is Dajing City, right? Now in Dajing City, Lao Zhang will open franchise stores. If you open a branch store in Dajing City, it's not impossible, but there will be conflicts in business. I still suggest that it's best not to open them in the same place, so as not to have too much impact."

Guo Fan was immediately happy when he heard it. "Brother Yuan, I listened to your suggestion. Actually, I didn't think of opening it in Dajing City at the beginning. Last night, I discussed with the Yang Jianyang team in Dachang City. I will open a branch in their Dachang City in the future. They will also give corresponding preferential policies to ensure that it will not affect other people's business."

Dachang City, Yangjian?

Lin Yuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Guo Fan and Yang Jian were hanging out together.

You know, in the original novel, Guo Fan almost became Ghost Eye Guo Fan, but now, he has reached a cooperation with Yang Jian?
But just by thinking about it, Lin Yuan roughly guessed the reason.

It was nothing more than for the ghost messenger Lao Fan. Lin Yuan did not say much about it. He just nodded and agreed. "Then you can discuss the specific details. The situation of the branch is the same as that of Dadong City and Dahai City. We will treat them equally."

"Thank you, Brother Yuan. I will definitely do my best!"

After receiving a positive answer, Guo Fan no longer cared about the ghost messenger Lao Fan and turned around and ran out.

It is supposed to be working hours now, but since it is not lunch time, Lin Yuan also asked everyone to take a break, so his leaving now would not be considered as absenteeism.

In Dachang City, Yang Jian had just dealt with a supernatural incident.

The source of this supernatural incident is a ghost town, and the horror level is not low, but it is not particularly difficult for Yang Jian to deal with it now.

The ghost clothes made by Meng Xiaodong in the Peace Hotel are very scary, and there is no feeling of restlessness and revival. It can even support him to open the fifth level of the ghost eye ghost domain unconditionally.

A ghost domain of this level is enough to resolve most supernatural events.

Not to mention that he still had a lot of supernatural items in his hands. After solving the supernatural incidents, he collected the source ghost and planned to go to the Peace Hotel to exchange it for money to buy his life when he was free.

Then, he was dragged by his good brother Zhang Wei to play games.

There are only a few classmates left in No. 7 Middle School, and they are good brothers who often play together. Yang Jian also enjoys this kind of leisure time.

So when Guo Fan rushed over, what he saw was Yang Jian and Zhang Wei playing games together.

However, in this scene, Yang Jian's expression remained cold and numb. He looked like a piece of wood or even a piece of ice.

Zhang Wei, on the other hand, doesn't stop shouting. Even if he dodges once in the game, he can shout out loud.

The contrast between the two is like one is ice and the other is fire. It is hard to imagine that they with such completely extreme personalities can be best friends.

"You play first, I'll go out for a while."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you."

Yang Jian spotted Guo Fan outside the door, chatted with Zhang Wei, and then stood up and walked outside. "You look so happy, so the store manager must have agreed to your request to open a branch store?"

"I agree. The store manager once said that opening a branch store is a benefit for the store employees. Although I am only responsible for ghost rentals and don't make much money, I am also an employee recognized by the store manager, so this benefit is naturally included. However, the address of the store can only be in Dachang City, not in Meishan Village."

Guo Fan looked at Yang Jian and said solemnly, "Brother Yuan was kind-hearted to allow us to open a branch, but I cannot be ungrateful. Meishan Village does not have a favorable location. How can the business of opening a branch there be good? I have to be responsible for the profits of the store, and this is non-negotiable."

Yang Jian nodded, "Okay. I'll let Zhang Wei's family cooperate with you on this matter. The address has already been chosen. It's on the most prosperous street in Dachang City."

"Huh?" Guo Fan looked at Yang Jian in surprise, as if he didn't expect that Yang Jian was already prepared.

Yang Jian said calmly: "I am not forcing you. Now is not the beginning of the spiritual revival. Fighting hard is important, but the exchange of interests is more important. Just like... us. I will do what I promised you. When you go to Fang Shiming's wedding to grab the bride, I will help you. The limit is before fighting hard."

Yang Jian was so frank that Guo Fan didn't know what to say.

When Yang Jian found him last night, he offered to help in the bride-kidnapping as the price, and this price hit Guo Fan's heart, otherwise he would not have used his branch quota in Dachang City.

Because of this, the headquarters already has some opinions about him.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as he successfully controls the ghost catcher Lao Fan, he won’t have to worry about the headquarters’ thoughts, and he can easily imprison the evil ghost.

As long as the source is not grasped, the sky will be high enough for birds to fly and the sea will be wide enough for fish to leap.

When he thought of this, Guo Fan couldn't help but reveal an expectant smile, but he didn't notice that Yang Jian was looking at him coldly, as if... he was looking at a fool.

Half of the day passed quickly.

Fang Shiming had to prepare for his wedding with the ghost catcher Lao Fan, so he took a few days off. However, the ghost catcher Lao Fan still stayed in the store, acting as if Fang Shiming was in charge of everything.

Zhang Xianguang also came to the store again and talked to Lin Yuan about opening a franchise store.

The franchise stores in Dajing City are already ready, and even the foundations in several other cities have been prepared. As long as the "store manager" approves, they can be opened at any time.

It was agreed before that the number of franchise stores to be opened would be based on the food supply of the Peace Hotel.

There is only one executive chef, Tong Qian, in the Peace Hotel now, and another one, Xiao Ru, who has come here to study for a while. She is Zhang Bohua's apprentice, a woman in her early thirties.

After this period of training, Xiaoru has changed from being willful and stubborn to being a good employee who works hard and is willing to do her best.

There is nothing we can do about this.

Xiaoru relies entirely on Zhang Bohua. No matter how powerful the ghost rider is in the supernatural circle, he has to be humble in front of his master.

He was even respectful to her, his disciple, and did not dare to be rude in the slightest.

Under such circumstances, it was natural for Xiaoru to develop her previous personality. Fortunately, she has changed now and has become Tong Qian's most capable assistant.

Currently, there is more traffic at the headquarters.

This flow of people naturally does not refer to ordinary people, but ghost riders. In comparison, there are fewer ghost riders coming into the stores from the Dahai City and Dadong City branches, and more of them are doing new wine business for ordinary people.

According to this situation, the branch store that Guo Fan is going to open in Dachang City and the franchise store that Zhang Xianguang is going to open should be in this situation.

In this way, the pressure on Tong Qian and Xiao Ru will not be too great, but it can make them move and not sit idle anymore.

"Open them one by one slowly. If the store can handle the workload, we can continue to operate. You can talk to Xiaotong about this. Xiaotong, Xiaotong!"

Lin Yuan called Tong Qian over, "Of course, since you are a franchise store, you also need to pay a deposit if you want to get something from the store, do you understand?"

Zhang Xianguang nodded and agreed.

Opening franchise stores or something like that, making money was not his goal, and he would not think about hiring any ghost riders. At most, he would sell some new wine, so he already had another idea in his mind.

"The number of franchise stores is limited by Tong Qian and Xiao Ru's cooking efficiency. In this case, I will not do the business of ghost riders, but just do the business of ordinary people selling new wine. Even if there is an assessment every day, it won't take several months, or even years, to open all franchise stores across the country, laying a solid foundation for the New Peach Blossom Spring plan."

Perhaps it was because he had a new goal to pursue. Although Zhang Xianguang had a stern face, he looked energetic and a man of action.

However, he also considered the relationship with the Peace Hotel, so he had lunch in the hotel at noon before leaving with Nie Yingping.

Looking at his leaving back, Lin Yuan suddenly laughed.

"Brother Yuan, have you thought of something funny?" Liu Qingqing asked puzzledly.

Lin Yuan shook his head. "Not really. Da Zhang is the second in command at the post office, and Xiao Zhang runs a franchise store outside. Both brothers are very dedicated to their careers, but I don't know how far they can go and what kind of situation they can create. It's a pity that they rely too much on others for everything and have lost their autonomy. Perhaps the result won't be very good."

In the Ghost Post Office, there is Tian Xiaoyue, the second-generation manager, and the authority of Zhang Xianguang, the third-generation manager, has been greatly affected.

Although the two of them are cooperating temporarily, the benefits of the Ghost Post Office are no longer exclusively enjoyed by Zhang Xianguang.

Plus, there is a Sun Rui below, who, with the help of Yang Jian and the headquarters, is constantly striving to become the fourth manager, and has already reached the fifth floor.

If Sun Rui succeeds, the headquarters will also reach into the Ghost Post Office, and then Zhang Xianguang's days in the Ghost Post Office will become even more difficult.

Ling Yiguang, on the other hand, put his heart into the so-called New Peach Blossom Spring Project and was completely dependent on Lin Yuan's ideas.

If Yaoyuan is never going to start the new Peach Blossom Spring plan, then everything Lingyi Guang has done is just using his decades of accumulation to completely help Lin Yuan.

In the end, both people and money were lost.

Liu Qingqing didn't care about these things. She would only respond when Lin Yuan mentioned them. She was more concerned about the issues that concerned her. "Brother Yuan, didn't you say before that you didn't support office romances? But now you're not too opposed to what's going on between Lao Fan and Xiao Fang and Xiao Guo. So, is it okay to have a relationship in our store? What about you, Brother Yuan? Have you really never thought about having a girlfriend? You... can't be impossible, right?"
