An Ordinary Path to Immortality

When Fang Ping met the three of them, he originally wanted to take them back to the cave to help him manage the cave.

However, Fang Ping has changed his mind now, because compared to that, it would be more appropriate for the three of them to stay in the shop.

Just as Fang Ping said, with them helping to manage the shop, if there is anything needed, he can just ask them to help deal with it, and Fang Ping can also save the time of running back and forth between the cave and the market.

Having a shop as a cover can help Fang Ping cover up some secrets and avoid suspicion.

Since the decision has been made, Fang Ping did not delay, and together with the short-bearded middle-aged man, he found the manager in charge of the shops in the market, listed the original shop at the lowest price, and then Fang Ping picked another shop with a good location.

Things went smoothly, and the manager of the Immortal Sect did not embarrass them, but Fang Ping still asked the short-bearded middle-aged man to hand over a hundred high-grade spirit stones as a tribute.

The manager who received the spirit stones smiled and told the short-bearded middle-aged man that if Wang Laiyuan dared to cause trouble in the market in the future, he could ask him to come forward at any time.

Immortal cultivators don't have too many particulars. After returning, they replaced the signboard of Cishan Grocery on the door of the new shop.

In the cultivator market, similar things are very common. Generally, except for some big forces opening new shops, ordinary cultivators rarely celebrate the opening of their shops with great fanfare.

Fang Ping was not stingy when the new shop opened. He took out a lot of elixirs, spirit talismans, spirit tools and magic weapons from his storage bag, as well as some rare natural treasures and put them on the counter.

He even put out some of the spirit fruits and spirit herbs in the cave.

After a busy period, the shop was completely ready. Accompanied by Ou Feng and the other two, Fang Ping opened the door of the shop himself and took off the red silk on the signboard. The new Cishan Grocery was officially opened.

Some cultivators who saw this scene entered the store for consultation out of curiosity.

After seeing the quality of the goods in the store and learning that the new store was open and all goods were sold at a 20% discount in the first three days, most people bought some cultivation resources they needed on the spot.

In addition to selling various cultivation resources in the store, Fang Ping used the crystal round mirror to record the items that the store needed to purchase and placed them in a conspicuous position.

For example, the various materials needed to refine the clone that he needed most at the moment, as well as the various spiritual medicines and finished elixirs for refining pills that he had purchased for a long time, the corpses of monsters, and the materials for refining equipment, etc. were all included.

Because the purchase price given by Fang Ping was a little higher than the market price, Fang Ping received a lot of various spiritual medicines and corpses of monsters, as well as some refining materials on the same day.

For this kind of resources, Fang Ping completely accepted them all. After all, Fang Ping is now rich and powerful, and this amount of spiritual stones is just a drizzle for him.

Fang Ping stayed here for two days, first to help take care of the business of the store, and second to guide Ou Feng and the other two in cultivation, and by the way, secretly observe the behavior of the three people to confirm whether the three people are still loyal to him.

He was not afraid that the three would run away with the money, after all, the things in this shop were not worth many spiritual stones.

He was worried that after seeing the large amount of spiritual stones and treasures flowing out from him, the three would think of killing Fang Ping to steal the treasure.

After two days of secret observation, judging from the words and deeds of the three in front of him and behind his back, the three were still loyal to him so far.

On the third day, a group of people suddenly came to the store.

As soon as they arrived at the door, Ou Feng and the others stopped their work, and Hei Zi glared at this person:

"Wang Laiyuan, what are you doing here?"

Fang Ping raised his eyebrows slightly. Is this guy Wang Laiyuan? He is really haunting.

A young man holding a folding fan in the crowd paced in the store and looked around: "I heard that you opened a new shop, so I came to congratulate you."

"We are a small shop, we dare not do business with you, a great immortal." The middle-aged man with a short beard said coldly.

"Listen everyone, they opened the door to do business but actually drove customers out, do you look down on our Wang family?"

Wang Laiyuan put a big hat on him, making Heizi and the other two frown.

The noise here naturally attracted a lot of onlookers, even the shopkeepers and clerks of some surrounding shops.

After all, Wang Laiyuan's reputation in Kunwufang City is not very good. This newly opened shop actually offended Wang Laiyuan, and the business in the future may be difficult.

Wang Laiyuan looked proud. He enjoyed the feeling of being pointed at by so many people, who obviously disliked him but could do nothing about him.

As he was walking, Wang Laiyuan suddenly stopped and looked at the lapis lazuli gourd that Fang Ping had placed on the counter to attract customers:

"Hey, that's not right. Your lapis lazuli gourd looks so familiar. How come it's so similar to the one I lost last time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, one of his subordinates came over and pretended to say, "Young Master Wang, have you forgotten that last time Ou Feng came to you to buy Xuanshen, your lapis lazuli gourd disappeared after he left. I didn't expect it to appear here."

When the people around heard this, they immediately whispered about it, but they were all talking about Wang Laiyuan deliberately finding fault and cheating people.

"Alas, it seems that the people of the Magnet Grocery Store have a deep grudge against Wang Laiyuan."

"Yes, being framed by Wang Laiyuan personally, these people will have a hard time in the market in the future."

"I have heard a little about their grievances. The three shopkeepers of the Magnet Grocery Store are rare good people. Alas, it's a pity that they provoked this playboy from the Wang family."

"I remember their previous store was located in a remote place, how come they suddenly moved here?"

Hearing them say this, Wang Laiyuan was not angry, but became more and more proud.

Fang Ping looked at him quietly without saying anything, he wanted to see what tricks this guy was going to play.

Ou Feng said angrily: "Wang Laiyuan, don't slander me."

"Ou Feng, you are so brave, you stole my treasures and dared to sell them here in a big way, you don't take my Wang family seriously at all?"

Ou Feng wanted to argue, but a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside: "Wang Laiyuan, do you still think this Kunwu Market is yours?"

Wang Laiyuan smiled as soon as he saw the person coming: "It turned out to be Manager Jin, why are you here?"

This person was the manager that Fang Ping and his friends met when they were handling the store procedures today.

Fang Ping asked the short-bearded middle-aged man to give him some spiritual stones, but he didn't expect that the other party would not take the spiritual stones in vain.

"I heard that a new store opened here, and there are many treasures inside, so I came to take a look. Why do I have to report to you where I go?"

"How can that be possible, Manager Jin, you are joking."

"Then why don't you take your people away quickly? I warn you, this is Kunwu Market, if you dare to make trouble here, the Wang family can't save you."

"Okay, I'll leave now." Wang Laiyuan nodded and bowed to Manager Jin, then turned around and said to Ou Feng and the others with a sneer on his face: "Today, I will let you go for Manager Jin's sake, and you all should be careful in the future."

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave, but another voice rang out: "Wait a minute, you can leave, but leave my green gold gourd behind."

Wang Laiyuan and Manager Jin's faces changed at the same time, and they all looked at Fang Ping.
