Chapter 57 - Harvest

The business philosophy of the Landing Money Chamber of Commerce was quite advanced. In order to expand their popularity, they created the concept of a "brand mascot" and asked the master painter Xuan Daozi to design it. After three drafts, they finally decided that the first draft was a mascot.

The first draft was a small fat pig holding a coin in its hand. It looked very pleasing.

After the Landing Money Chamber of Commerce had a brand mascot, they really expanded their popularity and achieved remarkable results. After many businesses learned about it, they all followed suit and had their own mascot.

Yanjiang County's Qianmen Street Tofu Shop was one of them.

Qin Yuanhao didn't really kill his underling. After calming down and thinking about it, his underling did a solid job and never made a mistake. If he couldn't be found, then he really couldn't be found.

It couldn't be that the tofu shop's mascot came out to create rumors and cause trouble.

"He looks so conspicuous yet can't be found. It seems that my fellow disciples of the Demonic Sect want to frame me!"

Qin Yuanhao sneered. How could he not guess that someone deliberately did this? He just didn't know who did it.

This was not uncommon in the Demonic Sect. Qin Yuanhao himself had done something like this before.

After so long, there weren't any clues. Qin Yuanhao could only swallow this loss and slowly think about who to settle the score with in the future.

"Since you can't find him, then there's no need to look anymore."

Qin Yuanhao took out a stack of paper and a few pieces of silver and threw them to his underling.

This was also one of the reasons why he didn't kill anyone. Someone had to do the work assigned by the Branch Leader. If he killed someone, where would he find the person now?

"Early tomorrow morning, gather your brothers and go to the eight nearby counties. Secretly spread these papers to the black market. These pieces of silver are your allowance and travel expenses for this month. Do you hear me clearly?"

"Hear, hear me clearly." The underling was frightened by Qin Yuanhao's last shout.

"Louder."

"Hear me clearly!" The underling straightened his back and shouted again. He shouted until his neck turned red.

The aunt next door angrily shouted. Even through the wall, he could hear her shout clearly: "Do you know what time it is? What are you shouting for!"

The aunt next door's voice was louder than his underling's.

Qin Yuanhao's eyes flashed with killing intent.

"Big Brother, the other party is a Foundation Establishment cultivator who came here to live in seclusion."

The underling hurriedly said. Many cultivators liked to play in the world. Maybe the barbecued skewers on the street were all cultivators.

Qin Yuanhao snorted coldly and left without saying anything.

The little brother yawned and thought that his boss had finally left. He fell asleep immediately.

He still had to get up early to work tomorrow.

Qin Yuanhao's underlings would often arrange some unknown tasks for them. In order to keep it a secret, Qin Yuanhao didn't tell them anything and just let them do as they were told.

It was the same this time.

After his little brother fell asleep, Lu Yang crawled out of the ground, took the three pieces of paper, and followed Qin Yuanhao.

Qin Yuanhao had come out to look for his underlings. After he finished explaining the matter, he went back.

When Qin Yuanhao passed by the "One More Time" barbecue restaurant, he stopped for a moment.

"I only went into seclusion for four days, and I opened a barbecue restaurant?

And it's still so popular? "

Qin Yuanhao suddenly has the idea of having a meal. It doesn't matter if there are more people. At most, he can just cut the line. It's already good enough that a Building Foundation cultivator doesn't have to kneel down to greet him when he comes to eat in this small place.

In the end, Qin Yuanhao gave up on the idea. Barbecue was something that required more people to enjoy. It would be less fun to eat alone.

"We'll see."

Qin Yuanhao returned home.

Lu Yang returned to the barbecue shop to help out. As soon as he returned, he saw Meng Jingzhou performing a monologue. The diners were cheering and shouting for another performance.

Lu Yang took a deep breath. You two really want to make the barbecue shop bigger and stronger.

Meng Jingzhou felt Lu Yang's knife-like gaze and hurriedly shut up. He obediently acted as a waiter, ignoring the diners no matter how much they shouted.

After a while, the diners left one after another. The barbecue shop was finally quiet.

The two ghosts cleaned up the grill and chopsticks, counted the ingredients consumed today, and estimated the amount of ingredients they needed to buy tomorrow. The three of them sat on the second floor and talked about today's harvest.

"How much did we make today?" Meng Jingzhou rubbed his hands and asked excitedly. Starting a business from scratch gave him a sense of accomplishment.

"Who told you about this harvest!" Lu Yang slammed the table and glared. "Have you forgotten what we're here for?"

"To open a chain store?" Brutal Bones still wanted to make the family business bigger and stronger.

Lu Yang no longer paid attention to the two idiots. He took out three pieces of paper and repeated the situation of tonight's stalking.

"White paper?"

Meng Jingzhou took a piece of paper and looked at it from front to back, but couldn't figure out anything.

Lu Yang also didn't know how to use this piece of paper. "Qin Yuanhao asked people to spread this paper to the black market. There must be some information on the paper, but I don't know how to read it."

"Is it a special means of communication between the devil cultivators?"

Meng Jingzhou nodded and agreed with Lu Yang's guess. "It's very possible. These sneaky guys always like to use secret signals."

"This paper is for all devil cultivators. All devil cultivators can understand it. With our eyesight at the Foundation Establishment stage, we can't see the words on the paper. It's even more impossible for devil cultivators at the Qi Refining stage to see it."

"So the problem isn't with the secret signal, but with the paper."

Lu Yang thought for a moment and baked the paper over the charcoal fire.

"What are you doing?" Brutal Bones didn't understand.

Lu Yang carefully baked the paper and said casually, "I read in a book that if you write on the paper with sugar water, there will be no words on the paper after it dries. You need to remove the water in the sugar at high temperature, and the words will appear brown."

Meng Jingzhou and Brutal Bones found this knowledge very interesting.

After baking for about five minutes, there was nothing on the paper, so Lu Yang had to give up.

Lu Yang then summoned a small ball of water in his palm and squeezed it. In a split second, the water mist splashed onto the white paper.

"What is this for?"

Lu Yang explained, "Special liquids like shower gel and laundry detergent are very absorbent. If you use these special liquids to write, you won't be able to see anything after drying. Only when you sprinkle water on the paper and use the principle of different absorbency rates can the words appear."

The Central Continent looked ancient, but in fact, it wasn't. Due to the existence of magic, there were many products that didn't belong to ancient times.

For example, the shower gel and laundry detergent that Lu Yang mentioned.

Unfortunately, nothing was shown on the paper.

Lu Yang was not discouraged. He pondered for a moment and thought of a new method.

"Since this is the method of communication between the Devil Dao, perhaps I should use the usual methods of the Devil Dao to unravel it?"

Lu Yang bit his thumb and a few drops of blood dripped onto the paper. The blood seemed to come alive as it flowed on the paper.

"As expected, this is the Devil Dao's method of refining paper. It can't be judged with common sense." Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. He finally succeeded.

There seemed to be invisible grooves on the white paper. When the blood flowed through the grooves, it would fill the grooves and form words.

"On the first day of April, the Immortal Sect's Yanjiang Branch will recruit disciples. The specific location will be announced the day before the recruitment."
