I want to protect my family, but you force me to take the lead

"High-level talisman?"

"Is this news true?"

"When will the shop selling talismans open?"

"........."

"I heard that we have to wait for the boss to come before we can open the shop! I think the boss is a capable person. Even ordinary people like us know how powerful his talismans are. He will definitely not sell them easily!"

"Yeah, I heard that he can also refine more advanced talismans! I wonder if anyone can afford it~"

Listening to the discussion about high-level talismans on the street, Qin Nuan, Wu Li and others who had disguised themselves and mixed in with the crowd exchanged glances and quickly merged into the crowd...

After half an hour.

Old North Street in Kyoto.

In a shop with no sign and closed door.

Qin Nuan, Wu Li and others were currently cooking in the backyard, eating and chatting.

"Qin Shu and Qin Mo, are there any suspicious things?"

"The third one in Babao Hutong, south of the city."

"Guohua Hotel in the north of the city, Lao Zhang's Photo Studio."

Qin Nuan swallowed a piece of ham, then looked at Qin Wan and Qin Lin, "Are you all ready?"

"Ready."

"Since we are ready, we will open tomorrow."

"tomorrow?"

Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Qin Nuan calmly rinsed the vegetables and said, "Yes, if everything is ready, then we can open the business. Do we have to wait until those rats in the gutter are ready before we open the business?"

Wu Li picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, chewing, "But, isn't this too hasty?"

"Rash?" Qin Nuan chuckled, "Do we have to wait for them to make the first move?"

"If we let them take action first, we will be in a passive position."

Qin Nuan put down her chopsticks and looked at everyone seriously. "We can't always be led by the enemy. We must take the initiative. Moreover, this plan has been carefully thought out. As long as we follow the plan, it will surely succeed.

The main point is to catch someone off guard. After all, no one knows if there is a traitor inside..."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, that's settled. We'll start preparing tomorrow morning." Qin Nuan made the decision.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

After disguising themselves, Qin Nuan, Wu Li and others arrived in front of the store early and began to decorate the store.

Qin Wan was responsible for organizing the shelves and placing the various talismans neatly; Qin Lin posted promotional posters at the door to attract the attention of passers-by; and Qin Nuan was busy in the store, checking the quality of each talisman.

In less than an hour, the store was completely transformed.

A large red lantern was hung high at the entrance, and a striking couplet was posted on the door: "This is our small talisman shop, with everything you need." A banner read: "Welcome."

The shelves in the store are filled with various kinds of talismans, ranging from low-level to high-level, as well as some talismans with special effects, such as invisibility talismans, teleportation talismans, and so on.

Qin Nuan stood behind the counter, greeting every customer with a smile.

"Welcome to our store. We have various talismans for you to choose from." She introduced enthusiastically.

As time went on, more and more people flocked to the store.

Some people don't know much about talismans, but seeing the lively atmosphere in the store, they can't help but ask out of curiosity; and some people who know about talismans carefully select the ones they need.

Qin Nuan patiently answered everyone's questions and recommended suitable talismans to them.

However, few people actually buy it.

After all, talismans are not something that anyone can eat.

So, in the whole morning, only a few low-level talismans were sold.

However, the news that the talisman shop has high-level talismans has indeed been confirmed.

At the same time, in the third house in Babao Hutong in the south of the city, the Guohua Hotel in the north of the city, and Lao Zhang's photo studio, a group of men in black were discussing...

"Shit! They actually opened today." The man in black said angrily.

"Hmph, they are lucky. However, when the general and others come back, it will be their death." The leading man in black sneered.

"Have you found out who the owner of that store is?"

"No. It seems to have been erased."

Bang~~

The man in black slapped the table and shouted angrily, "Asshole!"

………………

.........

As night fell, Qin Nuan looked at the deserted shop, waved to Qin Shu and the others, and then they quickly closed the door and left...

However, just when everyone thought they had left, a few of them went around an alley, avoided the people who were following them, and sneaked back into the store.

After those who were secretly watching passed the message back, they waited for orders from above...

Red Maple Pavilion.

Zhou Tianyou stood in front of the window, looking at the pitch-black night, and murmured: "I hope I can gain something this time..."

"Old Zhou, let's play a game. We are old, let them do whatever they want..."

Looking back, Feng Jie had already set up the chessboard.

Zhou Tianyou also became interested, "Okay, let's play a round."

"The first shot..."

"Hey, you old fox, jump the horse..."

"........."

Many people are bound to suffer from insomnia this night.

………………

"Is the news reliable?"

The stern-faced man sat in the main seat, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, looking grimly at the man in black kneeling below.

"General, I have checked it myself, and they are indeed high-level talismans, and there are quite a lot of them." The man in black lowered his head and answered in a low voice.

"Talismans are rare treasures. There is actually a shop selling talismans in Daxia. Do you think this is a bait?" The cold-faced man frowned slightly and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"We can't rule out this possibility. We have to be careful and not take the bait easily."

"Well, but if there really are so many high-level talismans, it would also be an opportunity for us."

The cold-faced man pondered for a moment and then said, "Wait and see what happens. Also, bring back all the people who were released."

"Yes!" the two men in black answered in unison, then turned and left.

The stern-faced man sat alone in the room, lost in thought.

He was well aware of the value of this high-level talisman, and also understood the consequences if he failed to succeed at once.

But he also understood that he could not act blindly. He needed more intelligence and time to judge the situation.

The night passed without any incident.

Shop backyard.

Qin Nuan stretched lazily and raised her hand, "Open for business."

"Okay." Wu Li and others responded in unison and started to get busy.

They knew that if those people didn't take action, they would have to stay here all day.

Even if there are few customers, we cannot close the door.

Qin Nuan didn't seem surprised at all that last night had gone so peacefully.

She knew that those people should be watching the store from somewhere.

What they want is not just high-level talismans, but people who can draw high-level talismans.
