I'm just an assistant, I don't save people

Because Lu Yang's skills allowed him to control surveillance equipment, he not only quickly found the owner of the building, but also found out that person's background and temperament.

Ye Yu succeeded in just one hour and had the transfer completed immediately.

inside the car.

Lin Yan and Suan Tou were sitting in the back. When they knew that Ye Yu had taken over Building 34, Yugu Road, they suddenly opened their eyes wide and looked at Ye Yu who was driving.

Garlic: "Is that it done?"

"It turns out that professional matters should be left to professionals." Lin Yan sighed, supporting her chin. She and Suan Tou were worried that they would not be able to reach an agreement within two days.

Ye Yu looked ahead and said, "We've bought the building, but we have to meet with the tenants tomorrow to discuss moving them out. We also have to register for various documents like business licenses, goods circulation permits, etc. What style have you decided on for the renovations? We also need to recruit employees in advance. Lu Yang is the store manager, so he definitely can't do odd jobs."

Lu Yang smiled and nodded, "That's right, now I have turned over."

Ye Yu added, "And I definitely won't be a shop assistant!"

Garlic glanced at Lin Yan and said with a smile, "We do have this idea."

Ye Yu was speechless for a moment, and he knew it.

Lin Yan thought about it carefully and felt that it was unrealistic to open the store now.

"Apart from the renovation, I'll give you the blueprints. You and Lu Yang will handle the rest. As for the other tenants, move out of the first floor, and clear out the people selling fake goods. We'll rent out the second to fourth floors first. Lu Yang, you take care of the first floor first, and we'll hire people later."

Lu Yang said worriedly, "But can I handle it alone? What if someone causes trouble, and I'm being watched by the killer."

"We'll halve the rent for the tenants on the second, third, and fourth floors, and provide free utilities. The condition is that if anyone causes trouble, we'll ask them to help out. We don't have the manpower, but they definitely do."

Lu Yang's eyes widened in surprise, "What? The rent is cut in half. This much money is enough to hire a few experts."

The building was located right between the two colleges, and its location was even better than the commercial street. The monthly rent was more than 10,000 gold coins. It was a four-story building, and Lin Yan had saved 20,000 gold coins with just a casual remark.

"The rental experts are definitely not as good as those merchants at handling emergencies. If someone comes to return the goods and insists that we sold fakes, will you also kick them out?"

"Uh..." Lu Yang hesitated for a moment, "I'll do as you say."

Garlic said, "We have no manpower at the moment, so this is the only way for now. The second to fourth floors will still need to be vacated in the future. You should work with Ye Yu to build up the store first. The most important thing, Lu Yang, is that you must remember that you are the boss and don't know me or Lin Yan."

"I understand." Lu Yang nodded.

Ye Yu asked, "Where are you going next?"

"Go to a small town outside the city to set up a stall and sell small goods. It's easy to get caught in the city. Maybe you can get those certificates and finish the decoration. We will also start school." Lin Yan said.

If I go to a small place outside, no one will know me, which will help me avoid being noticed by my colleagues in the Balance Plan.

You can also practice formations quietly and improve your level, killing two birds with one stone.

Garlic agreed, "Clear out the cheap little items, and keep the expensive ones in the store for later purchase."

This building was purchased jointly by Lin Yan and Suan Tou. Suan Tou also invested 50,000 gold coins. Although it was not much, he contributed money and effort.

During the trip to the North Sea, Suantou's biggest gain was Lin Yan's high-level spiritual weapon and the resources of the Linghai Secret Realm. It is no exaggeration to say that she is half a rich woman.

But she still needs to earn more money to pay off the debt for the additional attribute ring. The current funds are enough for her to practice and improve to enter the intermediate college.

In addition, Suantou has saved an emergency fund for his family and himself, so that he can deal with emergencies in case of any emergencies.

Ye Yu said, "Okay, I'll take Lu Yang with me for a few days and then I'll come find you."

Lu Yang was dumbfounded. "No, it would be easy for me to be discovered if I show up alone."

"For things like getting a permit, most agents will help you. The main thing is to deal with tenants. Also, you need to work on your temperament. A person who wants to be a boss can't be so timid." Ye Yu didn't waste any words and said directly, "It's settled."

Ye Yu drove the car to the vicinity of the city gate, let Lin Yan and Suan Tou get out of the car, and then drove away.

Lin Yan and Suan Tou walked out of the city.

The two chose a rather special town, Fengxi Town.

This place is right in the center of Tianluo City and Tianluo Forest, far away from the disputes between the two places, but it is also a must-pass route, with good and bad people mixed together. Lin Yan thinks it is a good place to do business.

Lin Yan and Suan Tou first checked into a well-received hotel in Fengxi Town, which cost five silver coins a month.

They will only stay until the end of the month as they have to report to the college on March 1st, so they only rent for one month.

After paying, take the room card and go upstairs. When you open the door, you will see a 20-square-meter room with the bathroom at the entrance.

There are two ordinary beds, the usual white four-piece suit, two bedside tables, and a built-in TV with a large screen opposite the bed.

Much better than expected, clean and tidy.

"Ding Dong!"

"Crash!"

Lin Yan sighed, "As expected, cheap goods are not good."

The soundproofing of this hotel is not good, and the sound of water flowing next door is clearly audible. Otherwise, it is unreasonable for such a nice place to only have a few silver coins for monthly rent.

Garlic sighed, "I haven't heard of silver coins for a long time. If I hadn't come to town, I might have thought I wouldn't be able to use them."

Lin Yan pasted a few talismans on the wall to provide sound insulation and shock absorption. At this moment, she discovered something and stared at the TV on the wall.

He sent a message to Suantou as if nothing had happened: Suantou, there is something wrong with this room. Don't take off your clothes here and don't use the bathroom to take a shower. Behave normally.

Garlic looked out the window and said calmly, "This scenery is nice."

"How do I turn on the TV? Forget it." Lin Yan turned his head and looked away.

Not long after, the two closed the door and left. They heard that there was a market in the town. The streets were full of stalls selling all kinds of things, which was suitable for them to set up a stall.

After leaving the hotel, Suantou dared to ask: "What happened just now? Are there any bad guys?"

Lin Yan nodded. "But they're not targeting us. There are surveillance cameras in the walls of those rooms, the kind with sound pickup. The store is secretly filming us, so why are the rooms' soundproofing so poor, and they're so cheap?"

Suantou suddenly realized, "This is too much. I think those good reviews must be fake."

"Yeah." Lin Yan looked calm.

“Do you want to report it?”

Lin Yan whispered, "Then we're doomed. I just checked and it's not just in that hotel, it's everywhere nearby. This must be Fengxi Town's black industry. We're facing a force, not just a hotel, and that force may have hundreds or even thousands of awakened people."

Suantou had never encountered such a thing before, and he was immediately uneasy. "What should we do? There are no teachers from the academy here to protect us."

"Pretend nothing happened. Set up a stall to sell things first, secretly collect evidence, and then throw the evidence to the Security Department when we return to Tianluo City and it's safe. Leave professional matters to professionals. We are not professionals in this field."

"That's right." Garlic nodded.

The two walked to the market, where people were coming and going, and it was very lively.

"Let's check out the place today and ask about the price."

Garlic came to a stall.

The bearded boss, who had been lying in the rocking chair, stood up quickly and said enthusiastically, "Would you like to see the elixir? It will improve your cultivation and strengthen your body!"

Garlic: “…”

Bullshit elixir! This is clearly a low-quality, failed upgrade pill. Even when she was in Class 9, the academy didn't give her such a low-quality one. Pah! Class 10 didn't give her one either.

But why did she know that this was a poor quality failure? Because she had refined a bunch of such useless waste pills a while ago.

The boss had a very sharp eye and immediately saw that the customer in front didn't like the pill, so he picked up a box of ointment next to it.

"It's okay if you don't like it. I have a healing ointment here that's essential for those going in and out of the forest. This ointment is made from over thirty precious fifty-year-old magical herbs that have been simmered for ninety-nine and eighty-one days. It can cure any external injury."

Garlic-faced chicken:?

What the hell? A fifty-year-old spiritual herb? And it still takes eighty-one days to refine…

The spiritual herbs she used were at least a hundred years old... or even thousands or even tens of thousands of years old.

If she couldn't make a box of basic ointment in half a day, she would be too embarrassed to be a pharmacist.

Seeing her extremely strange expression, the boss thought that she must not have taken the compliments to heart, and continued, "Every Awakener of my ointment has a bottle. Everyone who has used it praises it, and there are many repeat customers. The price is also very reasonable."

You have a lot of repeat customers? There's no one in front of your stall.

Garlic asked curiously, "How much is it?"

Come on, I want to see how you dare to cheat people with such inferior products. This boss really has no conscience.

"This one I sell is better than others. I only have one box now. It's not 299, it's only 50 copper coins."

Garlic was stunned for a moment and asked in shock: "How much?"

copper???

The boss looked embarrassed. "50 copper coins, this is already the lowest price."

Suan Tou thought that this boss still had some conscience.

1 gold coin = 10 silver coins = 100 copper coins.

Although the low-quality ointment used was made from marginal ingredients, and the level of refinement was so low that it made her eyes blind, the price was cheap… it was cheap! Only half a silver coin.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, the boss thought she was hesitating, and immediately said with great sorrow: "Okay, okay, take the 30, take it."

Suantou exclaimed in his heart: Huh? Is there still money to be made from 30 copper coins?

She had never sold it so cheaply before in college.

It seems that I really don’t understand the outside market.

Garlic pointed at the upgrade pill and asked curiously, "How much do you sell this pill for?"

The boss put down the ointment and quickly picked up the pill box again. "Since you really want it, the lowest price is 75 copper coins."

Garlic smiled and replied: "Thank you, I'll look elsewhere."

"Hey, don't go. We can bargain a little more. How about 50? 45 is also fine."

Garlic didn't look back and turned to go to the next stall selling spiritual herbs.

On the other side, Lin Yan took a look around and found that most of the monster materials sold were monsters that were only a few decades old. The hundred-year-old monsters were quickly sold out once they were put on the market.

There are also people who sell small demon beasts as spiritual pets.

As Lin Yan walked along, he heard the sound of introductions everywhere.

"Miss, buy a cute little demon beast. You can take it home for ten silver coins."

"Look at me, this Qingling beast is not only good-looking, but also has a nice voice."

"Our monsters are fierce and have high combat power. Fifteen silver coins per monster can be used for escort."

Lin Yan simply ignored it, but the little people in the storage container were not in such a good mood.

She wandered around for a long time before she saw genuine talismans for sale in a treasure shop. The ones sold on the street stalls were either of inferior quality or fakes.

But there weren't that many people in the store.

"Mr. Awakener, what do you want?"

"Just take a look." Lin Yan glanced around and saw that there were very few types of talismans, and there were no mid-level talismans. They were all low-level. The store mostly sold weapons and materials for refining spiritual weapons.

"How much is a low-level ice seal talisman?"

The boss was slightly stunned. She could tell at a glance that this was an ice talisman.

It's a real thing.

"Spiritual talismans are rare and expensive."

Lin Yan said calmly, "Just say it."

The boss said straight to the point: "Eight hundred and fifty gold coins."

Lin Yan glanced at him and said with a smile, "The price has at least doubled."

The boss was stunned for a moment, but still insisted, "Talisman Master is a rare profession. Fengxi Town has only produced seven low-level Talisman Masters among hundreds of thousands of people. This is a genuine spiritual talisman. I guess you are a student in the city, so you may not understand. Our spiritual talismans are hard to find. Scarcity makes things valuable. You will get the same price at other places."

Lin Yan thought about it and realized that this was the truth, so he turned and left.

The prices and things here are much lower than her current resource status.

No wonder getting into a prestigious university is like changing your destiny. The resources you have to cultivate, and the people and things you come into contact with are all different.

Suan Tou met her in the center of the market, and they found a noodle stall nearby to sit down.

Garlic roughly said that the things here were different from what she expected, and she also thought that Lin Yan might have seen the same thing as her.

Lin Yan asked, "Is it like this in your hometown too?"

Garlic shook his head and said, "No, we're close to Tianluo City, so the prices and resources aren't that different."

"Ah~" Lin Yan propped up his chin and counted the things that could be sold. "Then we can only sell some snacks, drinks, daily necessities, shower gel, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, automatic light bulbs, tents, tables and chairs, clothes... Hey, it seems that we can actually sell a lot of things, and not many stalls are selling these things."

Garlic lamented, "But our prices are high. The purchase price starts with gold coins, and there are not many silver coins."

"Yeah." Lin Yan sighed.

She originally thought this place was good, but it turned out to be a trap. She really wasn't cut out for business.

"It all depends on fate. Maybe a wealthy man will pass by."

Garlic couldn't help but laugh and said, "If not, then our stall would be a failure, a complete failure."

"I'm more of a hindrance than an accomplisher, that's me, haha." Lin Yan also laughed.

After getting familiar with the market here, the two went back to make preparations.

The first day of setting up the stall.

early morning.

After breakfast, each of them carried a package and headed towards the market.

They found that it was different here from Tianluo City. Few people used storage devices, and only a few passers-by who were shopping occasionally brought them.

When I arrived at the market, I found an open space, spread out the cloth and placed the goods, then sat on a small stool and waited for people to come and buy things.

Coincidentally, the stall next to them was owned by the same guy who sold the inferior Upgrade Pills yesterday.

Suantou and the boss looked at each other, feeling extremely embarrassed.

But the bearded boss was very enthusiastic. "I've just received a new batch of goods. Do you still need some medicinal herbs?"

Garlic waved his hand and shook his head, "No, no."

Lin Yan sat in the back and took out a book to read.

The bearded boss put down the pills and glanced at what they were selling, feeling very curious.

There was a pile of groceries, including toothbrushes, cups, chairs, stools... and even clothes. This must be because the family had fallen on hard times and was heavily in debt, so they had no choice but to let their children use things from home to set up stalls to make a living.

Alas, we are all miserable people~
