"I originally thought Princess Shuiyu could help us, but the result is really unexpected. Who is this Xiaochuan? He has such a strong background that even the princess obediently obeys him?" Cui Mo thought for a while,
He said a little helplessly.
"Then what should we do next?" After listening to Cui Mo's words, the five captains nodded. Although there was no harmony between them when Liu Xingchuan did not come to Shuimi Pharmacy, but now Liu Xingchuan is a ninth-level
The demon was suppressing them, and this accident prompted them to join forces, and Cui Mo also inexplicably became the leader of them.
After thinking for a while, Cui Mo sighed and said: "Wait a minute, the killer won't take action during this period, and Ogawa probably became suspicious after the last failure, so we don't have to do anything during this period!"
After discussing again what needed to be arranged next, the five captains left Cui Mo's room one after another, but the discussion on Liu Xingchuan's side did not end.
At this time, Liu Xingchuan was lowering his head and looking at the stone table in front of him in concentration. This was a sign that he was thinking about something. Yang Zhijun and Princess Shuiyu also consciously did not disturb him.
After about half a stick of incense, Liu Xingchuan slowly raised his head and said to Yang Zhijun with a puzzled look on his face: "I always feel that something was wrong about the ambush we encountered before!"
Yang Zhijun nodded slightly when he heard Liu Xingchuan's words. After a pause, he slowly said: "I have the same feeling. The most suspicious person who did this now is Zhang Hongwei, but there is one thing that doesn't make sense. How did he do it?"
Do you know when we are going out and where we are going to pass?”
"This is what I find strange. It stands to reason that although the last time we went to see the Lord of Qianyuan City was not particularly secretive, it was still a temporary decision. Very few people in the entire Shuimi Pharmacy knew about this. He, Zhang Hongwei, was there
How did Wanzi Pharmacy know our whereabouts? Unless..." After thinking for a moment, Liu Xingchuan asked doubtfully.
As soon as Liu Xingchuan finished speaking, Yang Zhijun immediately answered: "There are two possibilities. The first is that our Shuimi Pharmacy has people from Wanzi Pharmacy, and the second is that this matter has nothing to do with Zhang Hongwei, who wants to kill us.
They are the people from Shuimi Pharmacy!"
Nodding, Liu Xingchuan sighed. The second possibility was something he didn't want to believe, but since this possibility existed, he still had to be careful. The whereabouts of himself and others would have to be hidden in the future.
"The other side probably won't take action during this period. Let's take advantage of this gap to get the Bird of Paradise Pharmacy up and running!" After another silence for a while, Liu Xingchuan returned to his normal appearance and said full of fighting spirit.
In the next month, Liu Xingchuan and Yang Zhijun began to spread news in the Flower City: the newly established Bird of Paradise Pharmacy is for rent. If there are forces who want to open their own pharmacy but do not have the consent of the Lord of Qianyuan City, they can come and participate in the bidding.
, whichever force offers the best price in the end will control the Bird of Paradise Pharmacy.
As soon as this news came out, it caused a stir in the entire Huacheng. After all, the whole drug store rental thing has never happened in Huacheng, and this practice is simply unfair competition.
When everyone was waiting for the city lord to come out to stop it, they didn't expect the city lord to come out, but he showed his only support for this approach and said that he would not do it again... This is obviously letting go!
At this time, everyone began to talk about the Bird of Paradise Pharmacy. It was able to make such a big noise in the Flower City, and the Lord of the City actually expressed support for the first time. This made all the forces in the Flower City secretly guess whether the Bird of Paradise Pharmacy was a test subject of the Lord of the City.
.
Of course, regarding this news, most of the forces in Huacheng are just watching the excitement, and only a few forces are starting to plan the bidding.
A month later, the Birds of Paradise force began to formally bid.
Looking at the rising prices, Liu Xingchuan and Yang Zhijun both had happy faces, because the highest bid had reached 10 million crystal stones in ten years, which had already caught up with the income of Shuimi Pharmacy.
Regarding this, Liu Xingchuan has never thought about it. Even if they really get the control of Bird of Paradise Pharmacy, the profit of ten years of serious operation will only be about 10 million crystal stones. Now that they have all been handed over to him, then wouldn't they have worked in vain?
Really? This approach doesn’t seem cost-effective at all!
After some investigation, Liu Xingchuan finally understood the reason: the bid for 10 million crystal stones was actually the cooperation of twenty small forces.
These twenty small forces do not have their own medicine shops in Flower City, so they have been buying the medicinal materials they need from major medicine shops, and a large amount of crystal stones have also flowed into other forces.
In fact, after a little calculation, it is not difficult to find that with the cooperation of twenty small forces, the crystal stones they need to hand over to Liu Xingchuan every year are only about 50,000. Fifty thousand crystals is not as much as each of their forces spend on medicinal materials every year.
The consumption is completely incomparable, and during the period of renting Bird of Paradise, they can keep as much stock as possible.
From this point of view, the amount of crystal stones that each of their forces can save in ten years is by no means a small amount. In other words, even if the bidding reaches 20 million crystal stones, these twenty small forces will only make no loss.
Thinking of this, Liu Xingchuan sighed slightly. This may be how heroes emerge in troubled times. If they were not forced, it would be difficult for them to think of twenty forces cooperating, and it would be difficult for them to make this determination.
Another month later, the bidding had reached saturation, with the highest price being 18 million crystal stones in ten years. Of course, the ones who paid this price were still those twenty small power alliances.
After nearly two days of handover, the entire Bird of Paradise Pharmacy finally broke away from Liu Xingchuan within ten years, which made Liu Xingchuan feel relieved. Although at this rate, it would still take thirty years to repay the money of Qianyuan City Lord.
, and thirty years is not a long time, and there is still no loss in this money-making model.
Seeing the official opening of Bird of Paradise Pharmacy, and all the clerks running around in full swing, Liu Xingchuan felt indescribably comfortable. As long as Bird of Paradise's turnover rose to a certain level in the previous ten years, the leasing bidding in the next ten years will definitely be stable.
Rising, this means that a lot of crystal stones will enter the tree witch clan and their own pockets.
Thinking of this, Liu Xingchuan smiled slightly. This situation made Liu Xingchuan start to consider whether Bird of Paradise Drug Store should continue to use this operating model in the future.
"Xiaochuan, something happened in Shuimi Pharmacy!" Just when Liu Xingchuan was standing in front of Bird of Paradise Pharmacy and giggling, Yang Zhijun suddenly came to him and said anxiously.
"Guo Donghao just discovered that two clerks in the drug store were killed!" Yang Zhijun continued without waiting for Liu Xingchuan to answer.
