Evil Master and Disciple
Chapter 59: Pipe Smoking Girl Yue Yinling
Ye Feng casually flipped through the old accounts of merchants in Xianling Valley.
You don’t know until you see it, it’s really shocking.
He also didn't expect that the Yunhai Sect, a great immortal cultivation sect, actually hid so many human relationships and worldly affairs under its glamorous appearance.
Those who set up stalls on the street in Xianling Valley do not need to pay rent, only fixed shops do.
Moreover, what was paid was not the rent of the shop, but the rent of the land, which was called annual tribute.
The highest rents are in highly profitable industries such as Yihongyuan and casinos.
Next are restaurants, weapon shops, silk shops, and rouge shops.
Finally, there are grocery stores and the like.
There are hundreds of shops, almost all of which have backers and are opened by elders from various clans.
There is only one brothel in Xianling Valley, and that is Yihongyuan. The boss behind it is actually Yu Chenzi, the chief elder of the Discipline Academy!
Ye Feng only read a few pages and saw the names of many familiar elders.
Even Qi Yao's grandmother, Fairy Xuanchi, invested in a rouge shop in Xianling Valley.
Not many shops could pay the annual tribute on time, only about 20%, and most shops were in arrears with their rent.
Some stores have been in arrears for more than a hundred years.
They are all elders of the Yunhai Sect, so it is not easy for them to fall out with each other, which has resulted in these rents becoming a huge bad debt.
Ye Feng looked at the total amount and found that the bad debts had reached a staggering 4 million taels. Among them, there were three families whose rent owed exceeded 200,000 taels.
There were twelve families with assets exceeding one hundred thousand taels.
Other shops owed tens of thousands of taels at most and thousands at least.
After all, Ye Feng was from the 21st century and had attended university, so he quickly figured out that those shops that paid their rent on time were almost all industries controlled by the Sixth Academy.
After a while, Miao Xiaorou said, "Ye Feng, you've been watching for a long time. Are you sure?"
Ye Feng said: "Just give it a try."
"No, you have to pay attention to this matter. If you can collect all four million taels, you can get a dividend of one million taels, which you can never spend in a lifetime!"
Ye Feng was very excited.
One hundred taels of silver can be exchanged for one spirit crystal. If I can have one or two hundred thousand taels, I will never have to worry about spirit crystals in the future.
However, he also knew that the job was challenging.
Since those elders have been delaying the payment of rent for such a long time, it means that they are senior masters of the Yunhai Sect, so the Tianfengyuan does not dare to force them.
It is very risky to try to pluck the feathers from these stingy elders.
"Ye Feng, you are known as the bravest man in Yunhai Sect, you are not afraid, right?"
"Afraid? What a joke! In my life, Ye Feng, there's no such word as fear. It's just some bad debts, a piece of cake for me. However, I'm not from the Tianfengyuan. If you want me to collect the debts, you have to write me a document or a letter of authorization stating that I, Ye Feng, am collecting the debts on behalf of the Tianfengyuan."
"That's easy. I'll write it for you now!" Miao Xiaorou waved her hand, took out pen and ink, and began to write the authorization document to Ye Feng.
At dusk, Ye Feng carried a small cloth bag and left Shiweitian with Miao Xiaorou.
The cloth bag contained some shop lease contracts, outstanding debt information, Miao Xiaorou's handwritten debt collection letter, and the profit sharing ratio between the two parties after the bad debts were recovered.
Miao Xiaorou said happily, "Junior Brother Ye Feng, I'll leave the rent arrears of these old shops to you. Feel free to do it. However, if you really cause any trouble, it has nothing to do with me or Tianfengyuan. This is your own personal behavior!"
Ye Feng said: "Okay, I'll study it recently."
Ye Feng felt a little emotional.
In his previous life, he lived in an era of national debt. Online loans, car loans, mortgages, renovation loans, betrothal loans, credit cards, installment payments, business loans, head loans, and even female college students' bare bottom loans...
Behind these commercial loans is a huge debt collection industry.
Almost more than half of the young people have dealt with Cui Yongyuan.
In order to lick the goddess, Ye Feng once took out an online loan. Before traveling here, he was burdened with high debts and was often subjected to violent debt collection.
He once hated this industry.
Now he was about to become the person he once hated the most.
There's no way, there's no such thing as easy in the man's world.
Now he is penniless and doesn't even have the spiritual crystals to restore his true essence and spiritual power. He can only go out to work at the age of fifteen, when he is still a minor.
After leaving Food is the Heaven, under the guidance of Miao Xiaorou, he found the newly opened gambling house by Uncle Qu.
"Jinbaofang"
An extremely vulgar name.
It was similar to the gambling houses in ancient movies and TV dramas, with all kinds of people mixed together and it was extremely noisy.
But there was no fancy arm to watch over the place.
Come to think of it, this place is at least hundreds of miles away from the nearest city outside the mountain. Those who can gamble here are all disciples of the Yunhai Sect.
We are all cultivators, who dares to cause trouble here?
I thought that this kind of gambling style similar to that of the feudal dynasty would be rare, but when I walked into the gambling house, wow, it really opened my eyes.
Majiang, dice, Pai Gow, cockfighting, flower show, fantan... There are actually more than ten different gambling games in the gambling house.
There were a lot of people inside, including inner disciples, outer disciples, and even some elders.
"Aren't they all immortal cultivators who keep saying they're pursuing the art of eternal life? Why do they all want that?"
Ye Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head. How could these guys look like righteous cultivators? If they said they were disciples of the Demon Sect, some people would probably believe it!
"Ye Daba!"
"Long time no see, Brother Ye!"
"Ye Daba, I heard that you managed to get Yun Shuang'er? I admire you!"
"Hey, isn't this Ye Daba, the bully of men and women? Why did you have time to come here today?"
……
Ye Feng had only taken a few steps in the gambling house when several people recognized him and greeted him.
Ye Feng didn't remember who these people were, so he could only smile and nod politely at everyone.
Soon they found Fang Erba, Lei Sanba and Qi Siba...
These three scumbags are gambling with dice.
Since monks have telekinesis and magic power, they can control the number of points on the dice in the dice cup, and can even open their third eye to see the opponent's cards clearly.
Therefore, the gambling tools in the gambling houses here are all specially made.
At this moment, Fang Tong seemed to be very angry about losing, and he took off his outer clothes, revealing his white, fat upper body full of fat.
When he was wearing clothes, he looked quite fat. When he took off his clothes, it was not an illusion, he was indeed quite fat!
Zhuge Benlei and Qi Yao stood nervously behind him.
The person betting with him was a young woman wearing a purple and black long dress. She was about twenty years old and had very delicate features.
However, the young girl had a pipe in her mouth. The mouthpiece was carved from emerald green jade, and the pipe was made of pure gold, golden yellow. As for the pipe bowl, it looked like some kind of transparent crystal, a bit vulgar and weird.
Ye Feng was confused!
Are there still cigarettes in this world?
He is an old smoker. After one month in this world, his mouth is dry and he misses the feeling of puffing out cigarettes.
When he saw the girl smoking a pipe, his craving for cigarettes was immediately aroused.
At this moment, many people are gathered around this gambling table.
Fang Tong and the pipe girl each had a dice cup with three dice in it.
The pretty pipe girl exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a smile, "I think it's okay. The three of you have lost all afternoon, and in the end you only have ten taels of silver left. You should save it for some sesame cakes."
Fang Tong shouted, "I don't believe I'm going to lose this time! Come on! I want to turn the tables!"
As he spoke, Fang Tong began to shake the dice cup.
The pipe girl snorted, "Since you want to lose everything, I'll grant your wish."
Both of them were experienced gamblers and were quite skilled in shaking the dice. After a moment, they both stopped shaking the dice at the same time.
At this time, Ye Fuyou's voice rang out: "This fat guy lost."
Ye Feng was stunned and said, "It hasn't opened yet, how do you know?"
“Although the gambling tools here are made of special materials and the dice cups are also isolated and restricted, there are still ways to control the points.
The girl's dice rolls are five-five-six, sixteen. The fat guy's rolls are three-three-four, ten. If we're comparing big and small, the fat guy loses."
"Uncle Master, do you understand all this?"
"Nonsense! I was in charge of Xianling Valley for over a hundred years. When I was young, I even opened a gambling parlor in Xianling Valley to earn some spirit crystals. I know the ins and outs of this business better than anyone else."
Just as Ye Fuyou said, the two dice cups opened at the same time.
Fang Tong is ten o'clock, and the pipe girl is sixteen o'clock.
Fang Tong and the other two lost the last ingot of silver they had.
The three of them felt like they had lost their parents.
Seeing this, the crowd of onlookers also dispersed, talking and laughing. It seemed that seeing these three bullies lose money was more satisfying than winning money themselves.
The pipe girl shook her head, stood up, and stuffed the silver in front of her into the storage magic weapon while saying, "Losing sixteen games in a row, this bad luck is unheard of!"
Qi Yao angrily said, "Yue Yinling, stop showing off. The three of us were unlucky today. Let's fight again another day! Then I'll win over all your tight shorts!"
The pipe girl laughed and said, "Yaoyao, you only know how to talk tough. In all these years, have you ever defeated my shorts? On the other hand, how many times have you three and your boss Ye Feng lost to me in shorts?"
"You... I will deal with you sooner or later!" Qi Yao turned around and was about to leave.
When I turned around, I saw Ye Feng.
"Boss? When did you come?" Qi Yao called out.
Fang Tong and Zhuge Benlei looked over immediately after hearing what was said. After seeing Ye Feng, both of them were overjoyed.
Fang Tongdao said, "Boss, the three of us lost a lot today. Do you have any money to help us make up for our losses?"
Ye Feng was in a daze at the moment.
Just now, Qi Yao called the pipe girl Yue Yinling.
If I remember correctly, Yue Yinling is the true disciple of Taoist Shouxun, the chief elder of Chiyun Peak, one of the four branches of Yunhai.
Together with Yun Shuang'er and Miao Xiaorou, they are known as the Three Fairies of the Sea of Clouds.
Ye Feng felt mixed emotions at this moment.
These three young fairies are famous all over the world. One of them is cold as ice and doesn't like to laugh, just like a stone woman.
A person who takes bribes and openly embezzles money, and instead of feeling ashamed of it, he takes pride in it.
The last one is even more bizarre. Not only is she a female smoker, but she is also a female gambler.
How did Yue Yinling become one of the three fairies of Yunhai?
Is it just because of her beautiful facial features and curvy figure?
After hearing Fang Tong's words, Ye Feng came back to his senses and said, "How can I have any money? Since you have lost all your money, then go away. I just happened to have something to ask you."
"Hey, Ye Feng, it's been a few months since we last met, and you didn't even say hello? Are you still blaming me for the last time I defeated you, leaving you with only a pair of three-month-old unwashed shorts..."
The pipe-smoking little girl Yue Yinling came to Ye Feng with a smile on her face.
