When it comes to choices, Ye Xiao follows his usual approach.
Cultivation!
Only strength can make him feel safe.
Just say he is now.
My whole body was shaking with cold.
He must unlock his strength.
Otherwise, in such an ancient world with backward medical technology.
Some minor illnesses could kill him.
If he really died like this, it would be too frustrating.
After he made his choice.
Two lines of text messages appeared in his field of vision.
[Congratulations on the successful selection of the host, the investment stock Yecheng’s cultivation level is improving]
[Upgrade completed, investment stock Ye Cheng has been upgraded from a mortal with no power to a third-rate master]
moment.
A warm current swept through Ye Xiao's body, driving away the chill from his body.
At the same time, he also felt the strength in his limbs.
This feeling of having strength is really good.
The only thing that made Ye Xiao dissatisfied was that the improvement was too small.
Injecting 1,000 king crystals made him a third-rate master?
Although he complained in his heart, he had to accept the reality.
"rustle!"
Suddenly, the sound of rustling footsteps sounded in his ears.
This made him realize that someone was approaching the woodshed.
The number of people seems to be two.
"Clang!"
The door lock of the woodshed has been unlocked.
The old wooden door was pushed open in response.
Two figures entered his field of vision.
A man with a handsome appearance and a pair of lively eyes. Although he was wearing a set of coarse clothes, his unique temperament could not be concealed.
This person is none other than Sedum.
The other person is slightly overweight and looks like a naive fat man.
This fat man is not just Xu Maoshan, a little boy from Sedum.
"Ye Cheng, are you hungry? I secretly brought you a piece of bread."
With a smile on his face, Jingtian carefully took out the cold noodles from his arms and handed them to Ye Xiao.
Faced with Jingtian's behavior, Ye Xiao was more or less moved.
This guy is really kind.
"Thanks."
Ye Xiao's expression was sincere. After taking the noodle cake, he wolfed it down.
This pancake doesn't really taste that good.
But at least it can fill his stomach temporarily.
Even though he has become a third-rate master, he still needs to eat whole grains.
A piece of flour cake was eaten cleanly by Ye Xiao in just a few naps, not even the dregs were left.
"It's all because of that Zhao Papi, he hasn't paid us wages for how many days."
Sedum looked annoyed. If he had money, he could bring more food.
Unfortunately.
His pocket was really empty, not even a copper coin.
"I haven't been paid for two months."
Xu Maoshan on the side rolled his eyes several times before saying.
Ye Xiao nodded silently.
This Zhao Wenchang is really nothing.
When three people are talking.
A figure appeared in the woodshed at some point.
This man is of medium build, wearing brocade clothes, and is about forty years old.
At this moment, he was blowing his beard and staring at Ye Xiao and others.
The person who came was none other than Zhao Wenchang.
"Good guys, Jingtian and Xu Maoshan, aren't you guys working anymore? If you don't do anything serious every day, you just know how to be lazy!"
Zhao Wenchang scolded angrily with a cold face.
Sedum and Xu Maoshan felt annoyed when he said that, but they didn't dare to talk back.
They still have to work in this Yongan pawn shop.
If they really leave Yongan Pawnshop, their livelihood will definitely be a big problem in the future.
Ye Xiao frowned slightly. He was only talking to Jingtian and Xu Maoshan, but he forgot to pay attention to his surroundings.
"Also, you - Ye Cheng, you just went too far! You actually fell asleep while working, why don't you just..."
Zhao Wenchang's face was full of displeasure, and he yelled at Ye Xiao again.
Ye Xiao was not used to Zhao Wenchang's attitude.
"Old man, are you done with this? Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
Ye Xiao strode forward with a cold look in his eyes, staring intently at Zhao Wenchang.
Faced with Ye Xiao's attitude.
Zhao Wenchang was stunned.
Is the person in front of me crazy?
It's just that a young boy in his pawn shop actually dared to talk to him with such an attitude.
I really don’t know whether to live or die!
Zhao Wenchang was furious, but facing Ye Xiao's cold and ruthless gaze, he felt a strong sense of fear in his heart.
Just because, a very absurd conjecture emerged from the bottom of his heart.
It seemed that if he dared to say another word.
This guy in front of me will go on a rampage and kill!
"You're fine."
After a long time, a few words came out of Zhao Wenchang's mouth.
Then, with a sullen face, he left without looking back.
Ye Xiao was also surprised that Zhao Wenchang was suddenly so cowardly and easy to talk to.
However, he knew that this old boy Zhao Wenchang was definitely brewing something bad in his heart.
But he didn't take it to heart.
Zhao Wenchang is just a small figure and cannot make any waves at all.
If he can't even deal with this little guy, how can he deal with those investors?
I don’t know how many investors there are who have entered the king-level investment world of “Sword and Sword 3”.
Where were these investors born?
"Ye Cheng, you...are really talented! How dare you talk to Zhao Papi like this!"
Jingtian's face was filled with shock, and his eyes blinked again and again.
"Zhao Bapi seems to be scared."
Xu Maoshan also said something belatedly.
"People have to be ruthless in order to be feared by others. A good man will be bullied by others, and a good horse will be ridden by others."
Ye Xiao's tone was calm.
"this……"
Jingtian and Xu Maoshan looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Let's go! Go to Yong'an Pawn Shop!"
Ye Xiao said casually.
He no longer wanted to stay in this miserable place like the woodshed.
Shortly after.
Under the leadership of Jingtian and Xu Maoshan, Ye Xiao entered Yongan Pawnshop.
have to say.
There are all kinds of antiques on the shelves in this pawn shop.
at the same time.
There was also a handsome young man on the counter, flipping through the account books and fiddling with the abacus.
This person is none other than He Biping, another one of Jingtian's childhood friends.
"Ye Cheng, why did you leave the woodshed? You shouldn't..."
He Biping was surprised to see Ye Xiao.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Woodshed, that shabby place, I don't want to stay any longer."
Ye Xiao said casually.
He Biping had a weird expression.
"Biping, you have to call me Brother Ye! You don't know how majestic Brother Ye was just now!"
Jingtian said with a smile, and by the way, he also told everything about what happened just now.
He Biping was dumbfounded.
How dare you, a pawn shop clerk, talk to a pawn shop owner like that?
This is simply audacious.
"Zhao Bapi's face at that time was as ugly as you could say. He was afraid of Brother Ye."
Sedum smiled brightly.
"This... Shopkeeper Zhao may have some scruples, but I don't think this matter will end so easily."
He Biping was very worried. In his opinion, Zhao Wenchang liked petty gains and was very face-saving.
Therefore, Zhao Wenchang is likely to take action.
"Ye Cheng, your life..."
He Biping looked worried.
"It's okay, Zhao Papi is just a clown."
Ye Xiao was very calm.
He Biping shook his head, feeling that the sky in front of Ye Cheng was a bit unclear.
That night.
Ye Xiao and others had dinner in the pawnshop's hall and then went out for a walk.
In this day and age there is no such thing as a curfew.
Yuzhou City is very lively at night, with crowds of people moving and traffickers and pawns everywhere.
However, Ye Xiao lamented that a penny can't help a heroic man!
But he was not full at all for dinner.
Just some ordinary pasta.
It tastes really bad.
But he can understand it.
As a pawnshop clerk, the food is of this standard.
However, halfway through the walk, Ye Xiao realized that he was being followed.
"Jingtian, you go shopping first, I have to leave beforehand."
"this……"
Jingtian and others looked stunned, but didn't say anything more.
Not long after.
Jingtian and others have returned to the pawn shop talking and laughing again.
But they were still worried about Ye Xiao.
Because, after Ye Xiaoyi left, he disappeared.
Even in the pawn shop, Ye Xiao could not be found.
"Singtian, are you looking for that bastard from Yecheng?"
A hearty laughter resounded in everyone's ears like thunder.
Jingtian and others could tell as soon as they heard the voice that the person speaking was not Zhao Bapi.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, do you know where he went?"
Sedum looked worried.
Xu Maoshan also looked melancholy.
He Biping shook his head, thinking that Ye Xiao might not get any good results this time.
Who made Ye Xiao offend someone he shouldn't have offended?
"Where to go? I don't know. Maybe I left Yuzhou City!"
"With his virtues, bah! He is not worthy of being a clerk in my pawn shop!"
Zhao Wenchang had a sneer on his face, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
He always retaliates.
A little boy still dared to talk to him with such arrogant attitude. He was really going against the grain!
Therefore, he made a small plan and spent some money to have Ye Xiao's limbs broken and disabled!
As long as no one is killed, everything is fine.
"You guys, don't be idle. I have a batch of antiques here. Jingtian, please come and help me identify the authenticity."
Zhao Wenchang handed a package in his hand to Jingtian.
When it comes to antiques, Sedum is particularly good at it.
But right now, he is still worried about Ye Xiao's safety.
"Hurry up and identify! Don't waste my precious time!"
Seeing Jingtian's distracted look, Zhao Wenchang's face was ferocious and filled with rage.
Sedum gritted her teeth, silently opened the package, and began to identify the antiques.
He seems to be very serious about antiques.
Those dark eyes seemed to sparkle.
During the appraisal process, he was even more focused.
However, Zhao Wenchang was a little dissatisfied.
"Sedum, are you not satisfied with your work? Is it so slow to appraise an antique?"
Say it.
Zhao Wenchang was so angry that his face turned gloomy.
Jing Tian was convinced by Zhao Bapi.
How can antique appraisal be so easy?
Every detail must be inspected and distinguished.
Prevent the appearance of high imitation antiques, or some antiques may be fake, but they can be fake and authentic.
In short, antique appraisal cannot be careless at all.
"You loser!"
Zhao Wenchang was so angry that he started to curse.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, Jingtian is really serious about appraising antiques..."
Xu Maoshan said quickly with an apologetic smile.
"Shut up! You, Xu Maoshan, don't do much work, but you always eat the most every time you eat!"
Zhao Wenchang really shows his sharp-tongued side to the fullest.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, please don't embarrass them both."
He Biping couldn't stand it any longer, stood up with a mocking smile, and stopped looking through the account books to settle accounts.
Suddenly, Zhao Wenchang's expression softened a lot.
He still values He Biping very highly.
This guy knows how to maneuver according to the circumstances, and he also knows how to flatter others, and he is even very good at settling accounts.
finally.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
Sedum has finished appraising the antiques.
"How many fakes are there in these antiques? One or two?"
Zhao Wenchang had an expectant expression on his face, but he was thinking about these antiques in his heart. He bought them for less than a hundred taels of silver.
Even if one or two fakes appear, he will definitely make a profit.
At least you can earn more than three or four hundred taels.
If you are lucky.
Even a thousand taels of silver is impossible.
When he thought of a large amount of money rushing towards his arms.
The smile on his face became even wider.
"This... Shopkeeper Zhao..."
Jingtian scratched his head, hesitating and hesitant to speak.
Seeing him acting like a mother-in-law, Zhao Wenchang became even more angry.
“If you have something to say, say it, and if you have something to say, let it go!”
Zhao Wenchang said coldly, he really felt that none of the clerks in the pawn shop made him worry, so why did Biping make him barely satisfied.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, these antiques are all fakes."
Jingtian replied, "If they were sold, their value would be less than ten taels of silver."
"Buzz!"
In an instant, Zhao Wenchang's mind seemed to be filled with turmoil.
He was completely confused and dumbfounded.
"Sedum, what did you say? Are you saying it again?"
Zhao Wenchang said in a deep voice.
Jingtian said it again bravely.
"Impossible! You, Jingtian, don't even know how to appraise antiques..."
Zhao Wenchang began to have random thoughts again.
But his whole heart seemed to be broken.
I thought it was a business where I could make a profit without losing any money.
Unexpectedly, I lost nearly a hundred taels of silver.
This time it was a real loss.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, I heard your loud voice from so far away. Are you angry again? Are you so angry?"
A very casual and lazy male voice sounded in Zhao Wenchang's ears.
At first, Zhao Wenchang was still wondering why this voice sounded so familiar.
However, when he turned around and took a look, his body couldn't help but trembled, and his eyes were wide and round.
"It's you! It's you! This..."
Zhao Wenchang couldn't believe it.
How could the pawn shop boy Ye Cheng appear in front of him intact?
Could it be that those gang of gangsters just take money and don't do anything?
For a moment, Zhao Wenchang couldn't figure it out.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, the group of people you invited were too weak. I beat them all to the ground. It seems that the leader is called Mr. Long. I knocked out all his front teeth."
"That scene, tsk tsk, you didn't see it. Master Long and his men were scared to death by me."
Ye Xiao had a calm expression and dealt with a group of gangsters. For him, who is now a third-rate master, it was not difficult but a little time-consuming.
Suddenly, Zhao Wenchang felt that his legs were trembling.
Lord Long!
This was a famous bully in Yuzhou City, but he was actually dealt with by this little guy in front of him.
