The store's recruitment was somewhat effective. In the past few days, people came occasionally, but not many businesses were made.
Seeing that Song You is young, some people feel that he is just like those Mr. You Gua who have appeared on the street recently. He is taking this opportunity to deceive others. After all, there are always candidates and students who suddenly feel that they are in a trance and have no brain function due to various problems.
It worked, so I thought I had been possessed by an evil spirit and had become a ghost. The recent unrest in Changjing also gave this kind of deception an opportunity.
Some of them invited Song You over.
However, Song You only dealt with the task of exorcising evil spirits and subduing demons. Many people thought that they were possessed by evil spirits, and that monsters were harming them. In fact, it was either inner troubles or human beings.
If it were any other private gentleman, he might be able to get money just by pretending. However, Song You didn't want to do this and just told the truth. To deal with some mental problems, he asked his family members to find ways to relieve the patient's symptoms.
For those who are mentally ill, they are asked to see a doctor. For those who are suffering from evil spirits, they are also mentioned in a vague way.
Some can receive some money, some cannot.
There is also some profit more or less.
On the contrary, the weather is getting warmer day by day. I hardly feel anything when I bask in the sun or go out for a walk every day. By the time I notice it, I can already wear single clothes at home and not feel cold anymore.
This weather is perfect for listening to books.
There is a teahouse across the street, and there are storytellers every afternoon.
Song You felt that the storytellers in the teahouse were not as good as the storytellers in Goulan, and their stories were also very detailed, and the prices were more expensive, so he often went to Goulan to listen. However, this teahouse was actually a small rented building.
It's so close, just cross the street and walk a few steps. It's so attractive.
Go over and order a cup of tea and sit down.
The storyteller hadn't come yet, but he heard other people in the teahouse talking about it.
There were four or five people at the next table, all well-dressed, and there was even a person from the Western Regions. This shows that Changjing is open and tolerant.
It seems that we have come here to drink tea. A few people gathered together, bowed their hands, thanked the person who invited them, sat down, and each ordered their favorite tea, both boiled tea and some tea. People in the Western Regions are very particular about it.
He even named a tea doctor to serve him, and he must be a regular customer.
Before the tea was served, someone said in a serious tone:
"Last night I heard that there was a lot of noise at the west city gate. Many people were woken up while they were sleeping. There were shouts of killing and the roar of monsters. Many people were so scared that they didn't dare to sleep all night!
"
"heard."
"what happened?"
"The news that came out this morning is that the monster that ate people before was found. The monster was hiding in the East City. The imperial army and the master of Tianhai Temple fought with the monster in the East City. I don't know how much damage was done. I think the monster can't be defeated.
The imperial army and the master of Tianhai Temple fled from the East City to the West City. Finally, there was a crack at the city gate. I heard, I heard, that the monster actually slipped through the crack."
"This doesn't stop it?"
"Listen to the noise, there are a lot of troops dispatched!"
"So scary?"
"What I heard is different."
"How to say?"
"I have an acquaintance of a goods dealer who lives there. The man was so bold that he heard a noise at night and opened the window to peek. He said that the monster he was fighting was not the master of Tianhai Temple, but some glittering gods! Say a long story.
They look very much like those in the Chenghuang Temple!"
"If this is really the case, it is a good thing. The City God has finally appeared."
"Didn't you catch the spirit even if it appeared?"
"That's true..."
Several people looked at each other, scared and excited.
Looking carefully at their expressions, they were afraid of being murdered by the monster, and they also thought that they were living on the road where the monster escaped last night, so they happened to open the window to see what was going on. I am afraid they also wanted to transform themselves into a peerless expert and subdue the monster easily.
, famous all over the world and admired by thousands of people.
"But it's okay. Although I couldn't catch him or kill him on the spot, I finally found his whereabouts. The search for so many days was not in vain."
“I just don’t know when the ban will be lifted!”
"Yeah yeah……"
“Curfew is annoying.”
Then we started chatting about a girl from a brothel.
Song You withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to sip tea.
However, those few people chatted for a while about girls, about the prices of spices and silk, and then turned back to trivial matters in the city.
"I heard one more thing."
"What's up?"
"He's also the master of the City God's Temple."
"What's wrong?"
"You should still remember that the temple priest of the City God's Temple was greedy. He only allowed people to buy incense from him, and no one was allowed to bring their own incense. Two days ago, I heard that the temple priest had changed people, and a few people who did not buy incense under the Chenghuang Temple were not allowed to go up.
All the old guys are gone too, I don’t know what happened.”
"I'm afraid the City God has opened his eyes!"
"Mostly..."
Afterwards, we had tea and chatted again, which was very pleasant.
It can also be heard that they have deep feelings and are comfortable interacting with each other.
Song You turned his head and looked outside. The sunlight outside was so strong that people couldn't help but squint their eyes.
There are huge oil-walled carts slowly passing by on the street. There are many people sitting in them, and they are shared by many people. There are smaller carts with a small drum on the top, which will be beaten every mile.
Drum. There are also many young men running along the street carrying food boxes or rice bowls.
It often makes people feel like they are in a trance.
And in this city where you can take a public carriage, ride in a carriage, rent a horse, and have restaurants deliver meals to your door, if you have some spare money, you can really be as comfortable as these people next to you, and make appointments in your free time
Three or five friends, find a good weather, sit and drink tea, chat, enjoy the sun, enjoy the tea, and enjoy the friendship.
If not...
It is the people who provide freedom for these few people.
Finally, the storyteller arrived.
This gentleman was a little fat and had a cheerful smile. He started by saying, "I've heard a few stories in the past two days. Let me tell you."
This is the difference between the storyteller in the teahouse and the storyteller in Goulan. The storyteller in the teahouse tells sporadic stories. Everyone mainly comes to drink tea and chat and get together with friends. The storyteller tells some interesting stories and recent rumors.
It couldn't be more appropriate. It tests being well-informed, and those who go to Goulan to listen to the book are really going to listen to the book. Most of the stories told by storytellers are long novels, and it also tests the storytelling skills.
As soon as the storyteller spoke, the voices below became much quieter, and everyone looked at the fat gentleman.
I saw the gentleman clapped his folding fan and said with a smile: "The first thing is that I heard that General Chen Ziyi has been recalled to the capital, and he may arrive in the capital in a while. As for this news, it came from Chen Ziyi
What was reported from the General’s Mansion was personally heard from General Chen Ziyi’s parents.”
"Why did you suddenly summon General Chen back to Beijing?"
"I do not know."
Dayan has always been open to the public, and it is common for people to discuss state affairs. But as a storyteller, who relies on this to make a living, naturally he is different from the gossip among the people, and he does not dare to talk nonsense.
The people below were talking a lot.
Some people say that the emperor has plans to use troops against the north again. Some people say that General Chen Ziyi is probably going to make more contributions and become a knight. Some people say that Chen Ziyi made too many contributions in the Battle of Lanshui a few years ago, and later in the confrontation with the Saibei people.
He often won victories, and in the past two years he suppressed the rebellion of the natives in the south. His achievements were too great, and his prestige was too great, so he was afraid that he would be suppressed.
Song You just sounded like he was listening to history.
But this history is all around us.
Until a cat suddenly jumped out in front of me.
The waiter at the teahouse immediately yelled:
"Where did the wild cat come from?
"Get out, get out..."
Mao'er turned to look at him, then at Song You, and finally at the door of the house diagonally opposite.
Someone was standing at the door looking at the shop signs.
"..."
Song You glanced at the remaining half bowl of tea and felt regretful. He originally planned to rely on it to stay here all afternoon.
Now I just have to pick it up and drink it in one gulp.
Get up and walk out of the restaurant.
"I'm here to check, but I'm disturbed by evil spirits. Do you want to ask someone to exorcise the evil spirits?" Song You walked to the door without hesitation and asked.
"Are you the owner of this shop?"
The man turned around, he was a thin middle-aged man, and he looked like he was a housekeeper from a wealthy family.
"Exactly."
"What do you mean by getting rid of rats and worries?"
"..."
Song You lowered his head and glanced at the calico cat at his feet. The calico cat also happened to raise its head and looked at him doubtfully.
Then the cat sat upright.
The Taoist cupped his hands and said:
"I have the ability to get rid of rats for others. If there is a constant infestation of rats in the house and they are stubborn and difficult to get rid of, I can help you."
"What can you do?"
"The cat next to me is good at catching mice."
"cat?"
The man lowered his head and glanced at the calico cat next to him. He suddenly showed a look of disappointment and waved his hands repeatedly: "If an ordinary cat can catch mice, do I still need your help?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he discovered——
The cat next to him suddenly raised his head and stared at him with wide eyes.
The man was stunned for a moment.
"Don't be impatient." Song You said to him, "Since I dare to say this, it is because my cat is extraordinary. If you don't believe it, we can calculate the money according to the mice we catch."
"There has indeed been a rat infestation in my master's mansion recently, but the rats are all so fat and strong that it would be difficult for even a smaller cat to catch one, and they are very clever. We have tried our best, but we can't.
I can only catch one or two at most, and the house has been uneasy for a long time." The man said, "Are you really sure? Don't fool me!"
"Of course there is."
"What should I do if I can't catch it?"
"Not taking a penny."
"But how do I know you caught it?"
"My cat is smart. He can put the mice he catches at your door, and then the money will be calculated..."
When Song You came here, he saw the cat raising its head again. He was silent for a while, and then added, "But my cat may take away one or two of the mice we caught."
"really?"
"You can't do anything fake."
"It's so magical..."
Seeing what he said, the man also believed it a little, thinking that the cat was well trained and maybe really had good skills in catching mice.
"Then that's it..."
The man frowned and thought again: "If you catch few cats, it doesn't matter. My master has at least twenty or thirty rats in his house. If you only catch one or two
, don’t come to me asking for money. If you catch more than five, it will be counted as two cents each. If you can catch more than ten, it will count as your skill. If you catch more than five cents, it will be counted as five cents. If you can catch twenty or thirty,
Even if you catch them all, my master is generous and I am not a stingy person. If I can just ask for a peaceful night, so what if I give you ten cents for one?"
"good!"
Song You agreed wholeheartedly and then smiled.
At that time, I advertised this shop, but I just did it casually. I didn't expect that Sanhua Empress would actually get the job of catching mice, and the remuneration would be so rich.
Lowering his gaze again——
Cats are the happiest!
You can get the badge of Sanhua Empress in the starting point event
