Chapter 19 Sankoutang
That night, the twenty-six facades of the Xia family began to be haunted, making it impossible for the twenty-six tenants to do business, resulting in serious losses.
On the second night, the haunting continued.
In the past few days, it was time for Xia Hu to collect the rent, but the haunted things caused the tenants to resist and delay when they paid, and some even threatened to withdraw the rent.
Xia Hu told Xia Wuji all the news, Xia Wuji narrowed his eyes when he heard the words.
Haunted again!
Sure enough, ghosts can be manipulated!
He found that there were too many things in Blue Moon City that no one knew or that he didn't know.
He thought for a while and said, "Ignore them for the time being and let them make trouble."
But on the third day, the gang that collects protection fees suddenly intervenes.
It was said that because the 26 houses were haunted, the surrounding tenants did not dare to do business and closed down, which directly led to a decrease in the gang’s income. They began to charge Xia Wuji’s 26 tenants more than five times the protection fee.
Now, these tenants are not happy, and Xia Hulai refused to pay the rent.
claims that unless the Xia family settles the matter, the rent will not be paid.
Xia Hu did not make any claims, and came back and told Xia Wuji about it.
A sneer appeared on Xia Wuji's face, and he said, "Tell them that if you don't want to pay the rent, our family will not accept it, but you must move out immediately, otherwise you will directly lock the door with a big iron chain."
"In addition, you have asked someone to tell Liu Shouren that the twenty-six facades of Fairy Street are going to be auctioned."
Auction?
Xia Hu was startled, "Master, do you really want to sell?"
These twenty-six storefronts are the main source of income for the Xia family.
"Well, if the price is right, sell it."
Xia Wuji said.
"Master, in fact, there is no need to sell the house. Even if the tenants quit the lease, we have no rental income for a short time, and I can still go hunting."
Xia Hu said.
"Haha." Xia Wuji laughed, "The house can be sold in exchange for more resources to improve strength, strength has improved, are you afraid of not having a house? As long as you are strong enough, even if the city lord will give you way, even if you are robbing a gang leader. It's alright, you don't understand this truth?"
Xia Hu suddenly realized that the young master urgently needs to cultivate resources to improve his strength. After his strength is improved, he is ready to fight and grab the territory directly.
It turned out that this was the master's plan.
couldn't help but brighten his eyes and nodded again and again: "I understand!"
Xia Wuji didn't know that Xia Hu was thinking about it, he waved his hand and said, "Go. By the way, check which gangs are playing with fire."
"Yes! Master."
Xiahu left immediately.
Sure enough, in less than an hour, Liu Shouren came to Xia's house again to invite Xia Wuji.
…
Blue Moon Restaurant.
is still the private room.
"Young Master Xia, what do you mean?"
Liu Xun asked with a livid face.
Originally thought that by doing this, Xia Wuji would not be able to receive the rent, and he was afraid that the house would be smashed in his hands, so that Xia Wuji would obey.
But he didn't expect Xia Wuji's reaction to be so great that he wanted to go to auction directly, which disrupted his plan all of a sudden.
"I'm sorry Mr. Liu, the Wang family and the Han family are also interested in my twenty-six facades. In order to prevent everyone from hurting the peace, I am temporarily preparing to auction these twenty-six facades on Fairy Street."
Xia Wuji said calmly.
"Auction? You mean you're not going to sell it to my Liu family?"
Liu Xun said with a heavy expression.
"That's not true." Xia Wuji shook his head, "Master Liu was the first to explicitly propose the acquisition of the facade, so I naturally won't lose Master Liu's face. If you want to buy it, five hundred low-quality spirit stones are worth it. The price I give to Master Liu. You know, if it is going to be auctioned, it must be more than this price."
Five hundred low-grade spirit stones! Still love price?
Liu Xun's face twitched.
But there is no way, we can't force him to press his handprint here, just grab it.
If that's the case, once this guy desperately resists and shouts, then not only can't one of the twenty-six facade rooms be obtained, but it will cause trouble for the Liu family.
"Five hundred yuan, our Liu family wants it!"
"However, I can only give you a deposit now, and the rest will take three days to collect."
The reason is three days is because two days later will be the full moon night.
According to the information obtained from the Wanxiang Tower, Xia Wuji will definitely go to the Shilipo Taoist Temple outside the city on the night of the full moon.
When the time comes, just arrange manpower to solve it at Shili Slope Temple.
Xia Wuji nodded, "Yes, the deposit is 100 low-quality spirit stones. This is my bottom line, no less."
Liu Xun thought about it and said, "Deal!"
Stabilize this guy first.
Immediately asked Liu Shouren to raise these hundred low-grade spirit stones as quickly as possible.
This time Liu Xun came prepared, and Liu Shouren quickly collected a hundred low-grade spirit stones.
Liu Xun instructed Liu Shouren to draw up a sales contract, and after giving Xia Wuji 100 low-grade spirit stones, the two of them confirmed and signed and stamped on it.
Each party holds a share, and everyone is happy.
Xia Wuji was secretly happy.
With these hundred low-grade spirit stones, his strength can be improved again.
On the other hand, Liu Xun thought to himself: these 100 low-grade spirit stones should be stored with you first, and then they will be brought back with interest on the full moon night.
The Immortal Cultivator's family should have a lot of treasures, at least Xia Wuji's Qiankun bag hanging around his waist is worth a lot of money.
He didn't know that at this moment, one hundred low-grade spirit stones seemed to have entered Xia Wuji's Qiankun bag, but in fact they were gone.
Hundreds of low-grade spirit stones that did not fall all entered the black cauldron and turned into a green energy that could be upgraded.
Xia Wuji did not stay, and went back directly.
When he got home, Xia Hu immediately reported the information he had obtained: "Master, I haven't found out how the ghosts appeared on the facade. But in the past two days, there are people from the Dalong Gang and the Black Tiger Gang. There are frequent activities on Fairy Street at night.
"The one who asked the tenants for five times the protection fee was the Sankoutang of the Black Tiger Gang. The owner of the hall, Fu Xiaojiang, was located at No. 68 Tanghu Street."
Xia Wuji nodded.
The Big Dragon Gang and the Black Tiger Gang are the two largest gangs in Blue Moon City. It is said that they are backed by big men and manage dozens of the most prosperous neighborhoods in Blue Moon City, including the Blue River Rouge Workshop, the largest gold-selling cave in Blue Moon City. quite rich.
However, in many cases, it is necessary to assist the City Lord's Mansion to manage the Blue Moon City, such as catching demons, killing ghosts and taking demons, etc.
The gang plays an auxiliary role in the city, and more importantly, it is also the small coffers of some powerful and powerful people.
Otherwise, how could the City Lord’s Mansion and other functional departments allow the gang to collect protection fees at will under the eyes of the government?
Many people are well aware of this.
Xia Wuji naturally knew this.
After Xia Hu left, he immediately retreated and practiced.
The cultivation base and the golden bell cover are upgraded alternately, supplemented by "The Thirty-six Changes of the Stars".
In the end, the cultivation base reached the seventh level of the Bone Tempering Realm, the golden bell hood reached the third level, and the Tiger Fist and Tiger Blade Technique were all raised to the sixth level.
The overall strength is amazing, and the overall strength also skyrockets.
At night, Xia Wuji simply ate something, then changed into night clothes and went out.
The streets of Lanyue City are still lively, especially the Fairy Street, where the lights are feasting, and Yingyingyanyanyan;
There are fairies from Tianying Pavilion patrolling the streets. Basically, there are very few ghosts before midnight. Only in the second half of the night, ghosts and ghosts will increase.
Tanghu Street.
Sankoutang.
Fu Xiaojiang is happy today. In less than half a month, he has collected all the protection fees for this quarter and overpaid.
I was happy to drink a few more glasses, but I was a little drunk at this time.
"Little Hong, spend the night with this hall master tonight."
Fu Xiaojiang hugged a graceful woman and laughed.
