My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 279 - 171: The Dao Mountain Ancient Land’s Spy ’Blood Leaf’ (3)

Chapter 279: Chapter 171: The Dao Mountain Ancient Land’s Spy ’Blood Leaf’ (3)

Just two months ago, the Shopkeeper of Xiaoyu Commerce Association had a batch of goods robbed by bandits, which was like a bolt from the blue for him.

He declared bankruptcy on the spot.

In the end, Evergreen Commerce Association saw an opportunity and directly acquired it.

However, after acquiring Xiaoyu Commerce Association, the Chief Shopkeeper Bai Linwan of Evergreen Commerce Association did not let the Shopkeeper of Xiaoyu Commerce Association leave, but invited him to stay and work at Xiaoyu Commerce Association, offering him a position as deputy shopkeeper.

After all, in a place like the Uninterrupted City, which is far from Minghong State and unfamiliar territory, it’s necessary to have a local to guide them.

After using the money from selling the commerce association to fill the gap from the previously robbed goods, not much was left, so the original Shopkeeper of Xiaoyu Commerce Association, Zheng Yu, was quite willing to stay and work.

Moreover, he found that staying to work, the salary offered by Evergreen Commerce Association was no less than what he earned running his own association.

Looking at the busy affairs of the association’s opening.

Zheng Yu busied himself back and forth, while Bai Linwan directed people in handling the goods, and recorded information about the goods at the same time.

After working for a while, Zheng Yu stepped outside and looked up to check if the Evergreen Commerce Association sign was crooked.

"A bit to the left, yes, yes, slightly downwards." Zheng Yu directed.

Just at this moment, Zheng Yu suddenly noticed some figures in the vicinity, secretly watching Evergreen Commerce Association, which gave him a bad premonition.

Having been in the Uninterrupted City for so many years, how could Zheng Yu not know who these people were?

"Shopkeeper Bai."

Zheng Yu hurried inside, looking somewhat tense.

"What’s the matter?" Bai Linwan raised his head to look at Zheng Yu, a bit puzzled, wondering what could have made Zheng Yu so nervous.

Bai Linwan was an elder of the Bai family, this time assigned here as the shopkeeper, and he thought keeping Zheng Yu here was truly a wise decision. With Zheng Yu around, many things became much simpler, after all, Zheng Yu had been navigating the Uninterrupted City for years.

Despite having struggled quite a bit.

"Shopkeeper Bai, quite a few people outside are eyeing our Evergreen Commerce Association." Zheng Yu said nervously: "I know those people, some of them are spies from other commerce associations. Our Evergreen Commerce Association is opening, and it’s bound to affect their interests, so they certainly want to come and gather some information about us."

"That’s quite normal, nothing to be nervous about." Bai Linwan smiled, such things were common even in small places like Changting Town.

"It’s not just them. Mainly, there are also some notorious hooligans with a bit of backing in this Uninterrupted City. With our opening, they’re definitely going to want a piece of the pie."

Zheng Yu said with a bitter smile: "When I ran my commerce association, they would bleed me dry each month. If you don’t pay them, they’ll stir up trouble, making it impossible for you to have peace, and eventually, you won’t have any customers, forcing you to pay for peace."

"Oh."

After saying this, Bai Linwan continued to write, not bothering to address Zheng Yu’s worries.

Zheng Yu became anxious and hastily said: "Shopkeeper Bai, we need to make some preparations."

Zheng Yu certainly didn’t want Evergreen Commerce Association to fold just days after opening. Otherwise, he’d lose his job, and how would he then support his family?

By now, quite a few customers had already come in, because it was a new establishment, they were curious.

"Customers have arrived, Shopkeeper Zheng, quickly go and greet them." Bai Linwan promptly said.

"This..." Zheng Yu sighed helplessly, then turned to attend to the customers.

After stepping into Evergreen Commerce Association, many were immediately captivated by the aroma of tea.

"What tea is this, why does it smell so good?"

A customer exclaimed, and soon saw some young women carrying trays approaching with smiles: "This is our Evergreen Commerce Association’s special aromatic tea, please give it a try."

After speaking, she picked up a cup of tea from the tray and handed it over.

The customer looked, the tea was clear, and the leaves at the bottom appeared lush and green, looking absolutely beautiful, providing a visual delight.

The refreshing aroma was something he had never experienced before.

He took a sip.

As he savored it, the customer’s eyes brightened, the fragrance filled his mouth, the taste was pure and crisp, indulging his palate with a subtle and elegant flavor that instantly captivated him.

After swallowing, there was a faint sweet aftertaste, leaving a lasting fragrance that overshadowed ordinary teas by far.

"Excellent tea!"

Everyone was astonished by the tea after tasting it.

Zheng Yu hurriedly introduced several varieties of tea available in the store, never expecting this tea from Evergreen Commerce Association to receive unanimous praise.

This made Zheng Yu very excited.

A commerce association’s longevity largely depends on its ability to retain customers and whether it has unique products.

As it stands, just this tea alone ensures a prosperous future for Evergreen Commerce Association.

Zheng Yu, with his experience in running a commerce association, secured three deals within a quarter of an hour.

The tea from Evergreen Commerce Association was excellent, and the price was only ten percent more than regular teas, quite affordable.

In just a few deals, the earnings vastly surpassed what Zheng Yu had made over the past half-year.

"Cough, cough!"

Just then, the sound of coughing came from the doorway.
