Chapter 104: The Empty Old Market

It has been almost a month since the battle ended.

The “coons” like the updated monster spawning tower very much.

After all, there are rewards and experience, and you can even improve your combat effectiveness and proficiency. It's really great.

The only fly in the ointment is that not only is there a limit per person per day, but you also need to pay an entrance fee.

To be honest, it's a little distressing.

However, there are many jobs every day, and I earn a lot of money. I have less time but more money.

emm... Comparing it like this, it seems that this shortcoming is not very big and is acceptable.

Apart from Akina's "hard work", the city was still operating as usual in late winter.

Also, this battle did not affect any ordinary demons at all.

I can do whatever I want on a daily basis, and all the disturbances from the outside world have nothing to do with me.

I thought it would continue like this, until that day, the demons recalled the fear under their control, as well as the cramped and exciting magic crystal that was counted.

Because...a large number of tourists..."killed" came in.

I have to say that the advertisement put out by Guoguoxi’s boss this time is really powerful.

The first batch of tourists arrived was much more than in previous years, it could even be said to be twice as many.

In the next period of time, there will be a large number of tourists coming.

Not bad.

Many shops in Late Winter City, apart from operating normally and trying to survive, are just waiting for this wave of tourists.

Not open for a year, but open for a year, is the truest portrayal of them.

I thought there would be a huge sale this time, but who would have thought that in the late winter city, the busiest market in the peak season, there would be only a few sporadic tourists at night.

What's happening here?

Too tired to rest?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

If one, two, or even a few guests are tired and go to rest, this is quite reasonable.

But now, a large number of guests are missing, which goes against common sense.

"What's going on? Everyone has gone there." John looked at the slightly empty market and said in disbelief.

He has opened a store here for five years.

In the past five years, I haven’t seen anything strange happen, such as a decrease in passenger flow due to weather, policies, prices, etc.

But now, for no reason, 99% of the guests have disappeared inexplicably.

Weird, really weird.

Old John scratched his head, which made his hair, which was not thick, appear even thinner.

But before he could think about it for long, two customers appeared in front of his shop.

"Good evening, dear sir, beautiful lady, welcome to John's gift shop. I have small trinkets with the characteristics of Late Winter City. You can take a look. If you don't mind, I can introduce them to you."

This was his first business, and John couldn't miss it in vain.

Looking at each other, they seem to be a couple.

That would be easier to do.

As long as a woman is captured, the man will obediently pay for it.

This is the iron rule that Old John has believed in for so many years, and he has never failed.

A new trick can be eaten all over the world.

I thought I would be able to catch him this time, but I never thought that after just saying these few words, the other party still had no reaction.

And his female companion actually started urging him.

"There's nothing good to see here. It's old and dilapidated. It's better to go to Akina Pedestrian Street. There are a lot of people there and there are many things. Let's go there quickly."

"Hey, okay, okay, let's go, let's go, I'm sorry, boss."

Seeing the two people leaving in front of his eyes, Old John was a little confused.

Are you... leaving now? Good guy, just take one more look and let me say a few more words. Why are you leaving in such a hurry?

By the way, they were in a hurry to leave, saying they were going to Akina Pedestrian Street.

This name sounds familiar.

Is it Akina's?

Old John suddenly remembered that more than a month ago, a man named Akina's butler came over to discuss opening a store with him.

To put it simply, it is to open a similar store next to the newly opened pedestrian street in Akina.

Although a certain amount of rent will be charged, the flow of people is objective.

Anyway, that's what the housekeeper said at first, but Old John ignored it.

Just kidding, how can a newly opened neighborhood have high foot traffic?

Moreover, I have been operating here for many years, I have been doing it steadily for many years, and my business is pretty good. Why should I give up this area and go to a strange place?

So in the end, Old John chose to refuse.

But who would have thought that what the other party said was actually true.

Old John was frightened and confused at the moment.

He hurriedly tidied up his shop and then put up a rest sign.

"Old John, why did you close the store so early? Did something happen?"

"Yes, Old John, you are the last to close the store on weekdays, why is it still early now?"

"If there is no business, we can wait a little longer, just in case there is one later."

Old John's behavior of closing his shop early immediately attracted the attention of other shop owners around him.

They were also very curious at this moment as to what happened to make Old John do such an uncharacteristic thing.

In response to everyone's words, Old John just sighed and said slowly: "There is indeed something wrong. I will close the door early and go out for a walk."

"So that's it. Old John, you have a good rest."

"Yes, Old John, have a good rest. If the business is booming later and you are not here, I can make more money, hahaha. Don't be jealous then."

"It's good to take a walk to relax, so just treat it as a rest."

Everyone, you say something and I say something to old John.

Although we have known each other for a long time, we were all competing in business, so there was not much emotional upheaval when John Lao left.

But what everyone didn't know was that Old John's so-called wandering was to visit Akina Pedestrian Street.

He wanted to see why this pedestrian street was so popular that it even outshone the old market.
