Chapter 52 Help
After chatting deeply with Yan Yue for a while and making some preparations, Zhou Shu said goodbye to them, still left Yan's shop through the back door, wandered around the street for a few times, and then walked to Sanyuan Zhai.
After entering Sanyuan Zhai, the waiter immediately came over attentively, "Shopkeeper Hua said that if Mr. Zhou comes, go directly to the back hall to find him."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, and went straight to the back hall.
He secretly thought to himself, Hua Ruo'an is indeed an old fox, he had expected me to come.
In the back hall, Hua Ruoan stood beside a portrait, admiring and reverieing, very leisurely.
"Shopkeeper Hua."
Zhou Shu entered the door and bowed first.
Hua Ruo'an turned around with a weird smile, "Hey, brother Zhou, you made quite a splash at Yan's shop today."
Zhou Shu cupped his hands and said in a seemingly flattering tone, "Shopkeeper Hua has great supernatural powers and knows everything about the world without going out. It seems that I really came to the right place today."
Hua Ruo'an took a few steps and looked at Zhou Shu, "Brother Zhou, what do you mean by this? I'm totally confused."
Zhou Shu took a step forward and bowed sincerely, "Shopkeeper Hua, I'm here to ask for help."
He knew that Hua Ruoan was asking questions knowingly, but he would not say it out loud, and he must give him the face he deserved.
"Hehe, hehe."
Hua Ruo'an laughed twice, showing a bit of satisfaction, "Brother Zhou has an expert behind him, and he has a good relationship with Deacon Shen and even Manager Yuan. In this city, what else do you need to ask me for help? Brother Zhou
Are you sure it's not a joke?"
"Shopkeeper Hua is joking."
Zhou Shu shook his head and said seriously, "If the Talisman Master was willing to come out, things wouldn't be like this. And the management team and I are so far apart that there is no relationship at all. Besides, they can't help with some things. Yan and I
Only Shopkeeper Hua knows about the family affairs, so only Shopkeeper Hua can help me with this task."
"Okay, seeing as you beg me so much, I reluctantly agree..."
Hua Ruoan touched the sparse beard beside his lips and lowered his head in deep thought, "But how can I help you? If I help you, what good will it do me?"
Zhou Shu didn't think much about it. He already knew that Hua Ruo'an would negotiate the terms first, so he immediately said in a serious voice, "Fifty percent of the profit from the Quagmire Talisman will be given to the shopkeeper."
Hua Ruo'an suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with excitement, "50%, are you sure? You can make the decision?"
He had previously negotiated with Zhou Shu that he would get 25% of the Mire Talisman, and Zhou Shu would take 75%. Now it was 50%, doubling the income at once. He couldn't hide his excitement.
Of course, in his opinion, the talisman master wanted 75% of the previous ones, and Zhou Shu was just the middleman.
Zhou Shu nodded silently and said with difficulty, "Although the matter over there is troublesome, I will talk about it, but I guarantee that the shopkeeper's income will be 50%."
"Okay, Brother Zhou is so refreshing, what else can I say? Sit down, Brother Zhou."
Hua Ruo'an waved his hand, and a wooden chair slid over from the edge and landed next to Zhou Shu. A cup of spiritual tea suddenly appeared in the air, hanging in front of Zhou Shu.
The steam was slightly steaming, the fragrance was overflowing, and a face that was slightly distorted with excitement was revealed behind the mist.
Zhou Shu took it with a smile, "Thank you, shopkeeper."
Hua Ruo'an looked at him, "Brother Zhou, how can I help you?"
Zhou Shu said slowly, "Help me find out Yan Mengchu's address, the places he often passes by, etc. In short, I want his detailed information. He should live around Fang City, not too far away, and he may even be in Fang City."
City.”
"Oh, that's just it? Just let's solve it together. I can help you find a few more cultivators who can do things. I have a way in this regard."
Hua Ruoan shook his head and smiled, then made a downward slashing motion with his hand.
Zhou Shu was shocked, and then refused, "The shopkeeper is overly worried. I just want to get something back from him, but I have no other intention."
Hua Ruo'an was indeed an old fox and had ulterior motives for his proposal, but Zhou Shu knew it well and would never accept it.
Once he does this, his relationship with the Yan family may break down at any time, and Hua Ruo'an will have a huge control over it. He does not want to have this kind of connection with Hua Ruo'an.
This approach does more harm than good and is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
"Brother Zhou, you are not ruthless enough. Nothing will happen if you do this. I would like to advise you that if you encounter this kind of thing, you must eradicate it. If he wants to take over my Three Wish House, hey..."
Hua Ruoan waved his hand, "But it's up to you. I know you don't want others to interfere too much in this matter, but with your cultivation level, it's a bit difficult to do this... You'd better not get into trouble, you still owe
I have many things."
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Hua, for caring about me. When I can't solve the problem, I will naturally come to the shopkeeper again." Zhou Shu stood up, smiled and nodded.
"The results will be given to you in seven days. Pick them up in a few days."
Shopkeeper Hua nodded and said with a serious expression, "Remember what you said today. If you don't keep your promise, I have ten ways to make it difficult for you."
Zhou Shu smiled lightly, cupped his hands, turned around and left.
In the room behind him, Hua Ruoan said to himself with a smile on his face, "Humph, you knew you would come to me for help. Just wait, I will slowly squeeze out all the oil and water from you."
Zhou Shu left Sanyuan Zhai, wandered around for a while, bought enough food, and then returned to his residence.
There were a lot of things going on today and it was a bit messy, but it went smoothly.
Asking Hua Ruo'an for help was a last resort. He didn't have any connections. Finding someone in and around Qingxiafang City, which is dozens of miles away, was no different from finding a needle in a haystack. Moreover, if you had to grab time, you could only rely on Hua Ruo'an.
of power.
Of course, it would be easier to find Yan Mengchu if he asked Shen Baili for help, but he couldn't do that. Shen Baili had already said that he should not get involved in the Yan family's private affairs. If he went to find Shen Baili again, he would undoubtedly expose himself and his family.
The relationship between the Yan family.
And now is not the time to honor the favor.
The 50% profit allocated to the Mire Talisman seems to be a lot, but in fact, he can't draw many Mire Talismans, and the income will certainly not be much.
Talismans can only be drawn with talisman ink, and for the special second-level talisman such as the marsh talisman, the talisman ink is not that good. It was agreed before that Hua Ruoan will be responsible for the talisman materials. When the time comes and there are fewer talismans, he
There are enough reasons, and most likely it is Hua Ruoan who feels uncomfortable.
He didn't think much about this kind of thing, leaving it to Hua Ruo'an to worry about.
He has something he must do.
If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to get specific information about Yan Mengchu in seven days.
How to obtain the Patriarch Order of the Yan family requires careful planning, but the most important thing now is to practice the Shadow Escape Technique well.
The escape technique from the mysterious evil cultivator is elusive, blurry and difficult to distinguish, and extremely fast. It can be practiced at the third level of Qi Refining Realm. After practicing it, it will be of great help to him, and he will be more confident in obtaining the order of the family leader.
The Shadow Escape Technique has been deduced before, but it is also difficult to successfully practice it within five days.
It's time to hurry up.
