"Lord Lizard Kun, what should we do next?" asked one of Lizard Kun's closest men.
"What else can we do? Now that we are all in this situation, we can only return to the tribe first, and the rest can only be decided by the elders." When Lizard Kun thought that he would be punished by the elders after returning this time, he couldn't help but look a little gloomy.
.
After a while, all the injured lizardmen of the Purple Rock Tribe had their wounds treated, and then they began to return home dejectedly.
As for the lizardmen of the Qingzhu tribe, this time they not only defeated their enemies and kept their weapons, but also captured some of the enemy's weapons. It was considered a great victory, and they returned to their hometown with high morale.
…………
In Linshui City, in the market used for passing caravans to trade, stall No. 233, which was known to many people after several days of spreading, has reopened for business.
"Hey, did you hear that?"
"What did you hear?"
"The same merchant who was selling weapons at the market a few days ago appeared at the market again and started setting up a stall."
"Are you serious?"
"Why did I lie to you? Of course it is true."
"Let's go, I happen to have some spare money on hand, so I'll take this opportunity to buy a spiritual weapon."
Word of mouth spread, and the news about Lin Fei's stall spread rapidly in Linshui City. After a while, almost half of the city knew about his stall.
Not far from the market, there is a five-story restaurant. At this moment, on the fifth floor, there are three lizardmen in gorgeous clothes standing by the railing.
They looked at the ever-growing queue in the market not far away with cold expressions.
"What do you two think about this?" The lizard man in red clothes asked the two lizard men in black and brown clothes next to him.
"Zhao Qi, if you ask us what we think, you should first tell us what you think." The lizard man in black clothes said with a smile.
"My idea is to send someone to talk to the merchant and ask him not to sell weapons in the market in the future, or to sell all the weapons to us and let us sell them on his behalf." Lizard Qi said with a smile.
"Do you think that businessman will listen to you?" the lizard man in brown clothes said.
"Zhao Feng, send someone to talk to that businessman. It's not up to him whether he listens or not." Zhu Qi said with a gentle smile.
"Zhao Qi, the city lord has given a clear order that no one is allowed to interfere in the market affairs. If you do this and you are reported to the city lord, you will be doomed!" said the lizard man in black clothes.
"Zhao Guang, look at what you said, it's like you've never done anything like this.
In July last year, you sent someone to have a "cordial" conversation with the caravan selling medicinal materials at the market.
And from then on, all the medicinal materials they brought to Linshui City will no longer be sold in the market, but will be purchased by your medicinal materials shop." Lizard Qi mocked.
Lizard Guang, who was ridiculed by Lizard Qi, did not change his expression. He calmly said to the two colleagues in front of him, "Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing to others. I did not coerce them. They voluntarily sold the medicinal materials to my pharmacy."
.”
"Ha." Upon hearing this, Zhang Qi and Zhang Feng both sneered in their hearts.
"Dong dong dong..."
There was a knock on the door, and then a waiter walked into the private room carrying some refreshments.
The waiter glanced at the three largest weapons dealers in Linshui City who were standing by the railing, and said in a low voice, "Three bosses, these are the refreshments you ordered just now. Please use them slowly."
After the waiter left the private room, the three weapons dealers who were standing by the railing came to sit down at the table, drinking tea and eating snacks, and discussing who should send someone to have a 'cordial' conversation with Lin Fei.
…………
"Wow, wow..."
As wave after wave of spiritual stones were poured into the basket, the smile on the tax official's face became brighter and brighter, because all the taxes generated by this income were his.
What an achievement!
Lin Fei, who was responsible for testing the authenticity of the spirit stones, looked very calm. After all, he was someone who had seen big events, and his income from the spirit stones was not enough to move him.
However, as time passed, about two hours later, Lin Fei saw that the queue to buy weapons had diminished.
At this time, he began to feel a little tired, so he said to the tax officer who was recording the transaction, "Mr. Tax Officer, I would like to ask a few workers to help me look after the stalls. Do you have any trustworthy workers who can recommend some to me?"
.”
"Yes, I don't know how many workers you want to hire, Mr. Lin." the tax officer asked.
"Two please!" Lin Fei thought for a moment and said.
"I'm going to help you look at the stall. I need to verify the authenticity of the spirit stone. It's best for the young worker's strength to be at least at the peak of the first level.
A worker at the first level of peak strength will be paid 1 silver coin a day, while a worker at the beginning of the second level will be paid 5 silver coins. Which kind of worker do you want to choose?" the tax official asked.
It's cheap... Lin Fei thought for a while, and then said, "Let's bring two young workers who are at the beginning of the second stage!"
The tax official nodded, and then gave a few instructions to his subordinates standing beside him.
After a while, two lizardmen exuding the strength of the first stage of the second stage followed the tax officer's subordinates to Lin Fei's stall.
"Hello, Boss Lin." The two lizardmen said, clasping their fists.
Lin Fei sensed the two lizardmen in front of him and found that the spiritual energy emitted by them fluctuated ups and downs, and thought to himself.
"I'm just surprised, how come a lizard man with the strength of the second and first stage only earns 5 silver coins a day? It turns out that he is a second and first stage lizard man with physical problems like this!"
"How about Boss Lin, are you satisfied? They used to be the city guards of Linshui City, and then they retreated when they were injured. I can vouch for their reliability," the tax officer said to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei nodded, and then said to the two retired Lizardmen City guards in front of him, "Work hard. If you are satisfied with your work, in addition to the wages that should be paid to you, I will give you an extra gift."
.”
The two lizardmen who had some physical problems thought that the extra gift Lin Fei mentioned was a separate bonus. They quickly patted Lin Fei and promised that they would work hard, "Thank you, Boss Lin, we will definitely take good care of your stall."
.”
"Then I'll leave the business here to you. I'll go shopping in other places in the city first." Lin Fei said to the two workers with a smile.
Tax officer: "???"
Two lizardmen: "???"
Customers queuing up to buy weapons: “???”
Businessmen setting up stalls nearby: "???"
Everyone who heard what Lin Fei said was stunned, and invisible big question marks appeared on their heads.
