Chapter 117 Changping Realm(2/2)
Zhu Changyang asked strangely: "Brother Shen, why are you here?"
Shen Zhe's sect, the Zhan Cang Sect, is located in Tunchuan Mountain, located in the southeast of the mainland, while Changpingjie is located in the southwest. The two places are quite far apart. I don't know how Shen Zhe appeared here.
"Damn it, don't mention it." Speaking of this, Shen Zhe suddenly became very depressed and sighed, "My family has a restaurant here. Something happened recently, and my father asked me to come over and deal with it."
Hearing this, Chang Fengchi quickly greeted: "There is tea in the back room, why don't you sit down inside and talk."
Shen Zhe nodded: "That's fine."
The group of people entered the side room and sat down, and Shen Zhe talked about the reason why he came to Changpingjing.
It is said that the Shen family has a large-scale restaurant in Changpingjing. It has been operating for many years and the business has always been very good. The past two years have been bleak for some reason, but it is still profitable.
Unexpectedly, a few months ago, shopkeeper Yu, who was responsible for managing the restaurant, suddenly resigned. Not long after, a new restaurant opened opposite Shen's restaurant, competing with the Shen family.
That restaurant is owned by shopkeeper Yu.
It turns out that Shopkeeper Yu’s only son, Yu Sigong, was admitted to Yongjutian a few years ago. Because of his outstanding talent, he was highly appreciated by the sect.
Yong Zhoutian has great influence in Changping Realm, even the city lord wants to look at their face.
If someone in the family can speak in the eternal day, then that person will achieve enlightenment, and chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven. Shopkeeper Yu has been planning to start a new business since then.
This year, Yu Sigong came first in the sect competition and gained the respect of Elder Hou. He often practiced with his only son Hou Shiyun, and his status in the sect could be said to have skyrocketed.
Seeing that the time was right, Shopkeeper Yu put years of planning into action. Not only did he work with the former owner, but the newly opened hotel was exactly the same as the Shen family's restaurant from decoration to operation.
The Shen family's restaurant has been around for some time, so it doesn't look as bright as this newly opened one.
That's all, shopkeeper Yu also used Yu Sigong's relationship to borrow his magic weapon from Yong Zhou Tian, a top-notch luminous pearl called "Ru day".
This "like day" was refined by Elder Hou, and its brilliance is so powerful that it can illuminate an area of dozens of feet as bright as day at night.
Shopkeeper Yu placed the "like day" in the lobby of the restaurant and opened the lid at night. The lobby was brightly lit, and the brilliance even spread to the street, so that night walkers did not need to hold a lamp.
Such a gimmick is undoubtedly very attractive, and behind this gimmick, it also represents the relationship between the Yu family and Yong Zhoutian.
Anyone doing business in Changping would dare not give Yong Zhoutian face. Every time he came and went, the guests would all go to shopkeeper Yu's restaurant.
The Shen family's restaurant was in rapid decline, but Shen Zhe's family was open-minded and felt that although shopkeeper Yu was unkind, everyone had to do business based on their own abilities, so there was nothing to complain about.
Besides, a strong dragon cannot suppress local snakes. Shopkeeper Yu now has Yong Ritian behind him, and he obviously has a much better advantage than the Shen family in Changping. So he asked Shen Zhe to come to Changping. If this restaurant really couldn't continue to operate, then he would Just turn it off.
Hearing this, Chang Fengchi suddenly showed a look on his face: "So it turns out that the Shen family is run by your family, which is really troublesome."
The restaurant dispute between the Shen family and the Yu family has been a hot topic in Changping recently. Even Chang Fengchi had heard about it and said, "The Yu family is quite capable. When I borrowed it, many people stopped staying in the hotel and made a special trip to observe the brilliance of the magical instrument."
This day-like magic weapon is not an ordinary magic weapon. Illumination is just one of them. The magic weapon itself has magic power, and monks can gain benefits by practicing under its light.
It is said that Hua Yan Auction House spent a lot of money to persuade Elder Hou to put it up for auction, but was never able to do so.
Now it is placed in a restaurant for the Yu family for the whole city to watch, which shows that the Yu family is extraordinary.
"It's not that the Yu family has the ability." Shen Zhe sneered and raised his eyebrows at Chang Fengchi, "It's that you have the ability."
Chang Fengchi was startled: "What does this have to do with us?"
Zhu Changyang reacted immediately: "Is it because the sales of flashlights made Yong Zhoutian unhappy?"
"You can guess this?" Shen Zhe glared, "I spent a lot of money to find someone to find out."
Zhu Changyang: "..."
The temperament of the top brother on the list is still so outstanding.
Stupid people have more money.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess. Before the emergence of flashlights, two-thirds of the luminous pearls in the entire Piaomiao Continent came from the Everlasting Sky, and the Everlasting Sky Lantern was a rare magical artifact that everyone respected.
The emergence of flashlights broke this situation. They were cheap, safe, and could be mass-produced. They quickly gained great fame in the mortal realm.
The Immortal Sect has the same name, especially since the relationship between Yongjiitian and Changping Realm is so special, and they cannot tolerate the challenge to their prestige, so they naturally want to win back the victory.
Shopkeeper Yu just happened to come to visit, so Yong Zhou Tian took advantage of the situation and lent out "Ru Zhou". It seemed that he was helping the Yu family. In fact, the real reason was to show Yong Zhou Tian's magic weapon to the citizens of Changping Realm.
So that ordinary people can see the "equivalent" gap between real treasures and flashlights.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Yu family alone to borrow this magic weapon.
Chang Fengchi suddenly understood, and was a little unbelievable: "This is actually the case."
Unexpectedly, Baigong Sect would also cause discomfort to Yong Ritian. Who could have imagined this before.
If you think about it carefully, it is indeed true. Since the "Like Day" was exhibited in Yu's restaurant, many people would watch the outside of the restaurant every night. Their respect for the eternal day sky has grown to a higher level, and they no longer regard flashlights as a miracle. things.
It's just that Baigong Sect has never dared to compare itself with Yong Ri Tian, so it has never thought about the significance of this move.
Shen Zhe paused and then continued: "When I arrived in Changping, I found that the situation in the restaurant was worse than expected. I originally wanted to close it down as my father said."
Unexpectedly, after careful investigation, I discovered that shopkeeper Yu was really unreasonable. He had been the shopkeeper of the Shen family for the past two years, but he deliberately destroyed the Shen family's business.
The broken guest rooms were not repaired, the food was downgraded, substandard goods were passed off as good ones, etc. It’s no wonder that the restaurant’s business was getting worse and worse. Shopkeeper Yu also secretly used the resources of the Shen family to get all the customers to himself.
Zhu Changyang is also very incomprehensible. It sounds like shopkeeper Yu did this without any warning, and the Shen family never discovered it.
Then he asked the question.
"I really don't have time to investigate in detail." Shen Zhe waved his hand, "Our family has a restaurant in the Nine Regions and other properties to take care of. My father's mind has turned to other things in the past two years, so where can he take care of it? .”
Otherwise, his father would just shut him down as soon as he saw that it wasn't working.
Zhu Changyang made a pause gesture: "Okay, don't say any more."
