After the eight little demons left, Jiang Li called the inn boy to clean the room.
This guest room with a local name has been made stinky by yellow skins and rats, and it is obviously uninhabitable.
Jiang Li went to the innkeeper again and told him about the flowing water mat tomorrow.
Jiang Li's request was that twenty tables of delicious drinks would be served as soon as midnight tonight. But the boss wiped his hands with cold sweat and complained repeatedly in fear.
"Master Immortal, it's not that I don't want to, but the shop has limited manpower and insufficient materials. It's really impossible to put up such a long flowing mat!"
Jiang Li didn't know what he was thinking. There were more than twenty large tables in the lobby of this inn. They usually needed to provide food for many guest rooms. It was a bit tiring to have a running table, but it was not difficult at all.
The only difference here is money.
Jiang Li smiled and stretched out his hand, pressing the wrist of the innkeeper. The Yin-type spiritual energy eroded the flesh and blood of mortals, and after pressing it gently, a little blue-black mark appeared on the wrist.
When the innkeeper saw it, he was shocked and immediately knelt on the ground and shouted to the immortal master for mercy!
"Don't worry, as long as you do things well, you won't be short of money. But if you deliberately go against me and something goes wrong at the banquet, this thing will kill you!"
How could this boss dare to say no even half a word? He kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic, and he agreed very freely.
Jiang Li has no intention of being as knowledgeable as a small person, but the small thoughts of a small person may ruin big things.
There is no "life-threatening" pressure on him, and he can definitely do things that are inferior and inferior.
However, this inn and restaurant will definitely not be able to get this gold and silver money. I still need to find someone else to "borrow" some.
"Hey! Let those three guys explore the area, they haven't come back yet!"
Jiang Li looked around for his newly recruited subordinates, and it turned out that these three people had other ideas, and they never came back after they left.
That means I'm afraid I'm still making up my mind.
What if they find their target and become inner disciples, even if Jiang Li has a contract, with the support of the sect, they can still manipulate Jiang Li at will.
Sure enough, the subordinates recruited in this way are unreliable.
Fortunately, Jiang Li didn't expect them to be of much help. All they had to do was hang around and act as three obvious "baits".
Without his men by his side, Jiang Li could only leave the inn alone and walk towards the city lord's mansion.
This Yunxi City does not belong to any country.
There once was a small forest of spirit trees here, which existed as a small logging settlement serving the Sutra Valley.
Later, the spiritual trees were cut down and the place was abandoned by the sect. However, due to its superior geographical location, more mortals gradually gathered, and this city was eventually formed.
So here there is only the city lord and no government officials.
Jiang Li stepped into the city lord's palace. The guards guarding the door had been warned many times in the past two days not to offend anyone who saw such clothes, so no one stopped him at all.
"Where is your city lord?"
Jiang Li grabbed a servant and asked.
"The city lord is discussing matters with the immortal masters in the hall."
Immortal masters?
Jiang Li also understood the thoughts of other outer disciples as soon as he thought about it.
In addition to the flying boats flying in the sky outside, there must also be sect elders sitting in Yunxi City.
The most likely place is undoubtedly the city lord's palace.
In this way, the City Lord's Mansion, where the sect elders are most likely to be stationed, has naturally become the safest base camp, and the outer disciples naturally want to run here.
Under the guidance of his servants, Jiang Li arrived at the main hall of the city. Before he even stepped in, a series of high-pitched talks could be heard inside.
After listening to a few words, Jiang Li knew that those in the late stage of Qi training were dividing the search area and deceiving the disciples in the middle stage of Qi training to act with them.
When the time comes, I will endanger others and I will take the credit. Isn’t it wonderful?
Jiang Li didn't knock on the door, and walked directly away. With a quick glance, he saw three familiar guys sitting among the crowd.
Jiang Li's eyes widened under his mask, causing the three of them to quickly lower their heads in fear.
Since the three of them were here, the information that Jiang Li was wearing a wooden mask naturally spread.
The outer disciples recognized Jiang Li as soon as they saw him.
"Haha, Junior Brother Jiang Li is here too. That's just in time. We are arranging a search plan. Junior Brother Jiang Li should also come and join us."
"After all, our opponents are former sect elders and inner sect brothers. There is still strength in numbers."
Guo An was naturally the host of the meeting here, and he also sent an invitation to Jiang Li.
"Senior brother, please don't be so polite. You can just discuss it. Junior brother is a soft-spoken person, so it's better not to get involved."
"You three, if you don't come here quickly, I won't be able to spare you if you cause more trouble to your senior brothers and sisters."
Jiang Li replied casually, looked at the three guys again, and took out the contract from his arms as he spoke, trying to get excited.
This lowest level of contract paper can only be activated once, and it may not be directly fatal to three mid-stage Qi training bodies, but it can definitely make them seriously injured and on the verge of death.
The three of them quickly took out the wooden masks and put them on again, and hurriedly ran to stand behind Jiang Li.
Immediately, he bypassed the group of monks and walked directly to the city lord who had been standing beside him.
Jiang Li directly stated his demands, asking for money, food, and manpower.
The city lord was naturally reluctant, but on the surface he could only agree, promising that Jiang Li could take people with him to move money directly to several major banks in the city.
Jiang Li, however, was too lazy to pay attention to him and took away thirty young men, taking away most of his city lord's treasury along the way.
"Jiang Li really doesn't know what to say. Senior Brother Guo invites you kindly, but he has such an attitude!"
"That's right! What time of day it is now, and you still only want to collect money in the world. This kind of person must have no future!"
"We who are cultivating immortals, our gold and silver are no more than dung, but Jiang Li only knows how to hold dung, haha, he is worthy of being among mortals."
After Jiang Li left, these senior brothers launched a verbal offensive against him again, quite disdainful of his efforts to collect gold and silver...
With these dozen heavy boxes of gold and silver in place, the development of the flowing water mat will naturally be simple.
With the help of thirty young and strong men, they used bamboo poles to prop up the supports and then covered them with tarps, and the simple venue was completed.
Also, a large amount of food was brought back.
Of course, the most abundant ones are roosters, hens, eggs, and a lot of lard.
The most common monsters here are probably those two types, and naturally most of them are prepared for them.
Jiang Li also asked three "underlings" to serve as cashiers.
Five taels of silver is worth a ghost, and five taels of silver is a soul. This means that as long as one person dies, the monsters can harvest ten taels of silver. To the monsters, this price is just like giving it away for free.
Jiang Li prepared 700,000 taels of silver here.
And in this Yunxi City, the population is only about 400,000, and the ghosts and souls cannot last forever, so thinking about it, it is quite enough.
I just don’t know if the collected souls can be enough to help me repair the Underworld Coffin.
