When he and Zhuzi were walking at the port the night before yesterday, he was still thinking that she would leave quietly like that, and he didn't know if there would be a chance to see her again in the future. He didn't expect to meet her apprentice today.

It seems that the bond between them has not been broken yet.

"Miss Shen He, is your master... okay?"

"Master is fine and is in retreat."

"That's good."

"So are you coming down the mountain this time?"

"Master said that you are not familiar with the place in Liyue and you are blind, so you may not have a good life here, so you sent me to take care of you."

"I see."

No wonder Shen He would say such words to him when they met.

The little hen crane still knows how to repay his kindness.

Shen He looked at Xia Zhi and said seriously: "You come with me, I will take care of you from now on."

Xia Zhi smiled and asked, "I wonder how Miss Shen He plans to take care of me?"

Shen He thought for a while and said, "Whatever you want, I will find it for you."

What a straightforward way of caring.

Xia Zhi shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't want anything. I am living a good life now. I don't need Miss Shen He to take care of me. Thank you Master for your concern."

Shen He was stunned and asked, "No?"

"Well, no need."

Shen He fell into silence, as if he didn't know what to do.

"Miss Shen He is coming down the mountain this time. Is there anything else to do?"

"I want to give someone something for the master."

"do you need my help?"

"No, I've already sent the stuff over."

"Then will Miss Shen He go back to the mountain?"

"I... won't go back..."

"Oh?"

"I am actually not an immortal, but I was taken in by my master since I was a child. This time my master is going to practice in seclusion for a long time. I hope I can take advantage of this opportunity to go down the mountain and return to human society."

"That's right, so Miss Shen He is planning to stay in Liyue permanently?"

"Ah."

"Have you found a place to live?"

"not yet."

"Do you have enough money on you?"

"I brought 15 molas."

"If it's 15 molas, it's enough for renting in the short term. Does Miss Shen He have any plans for her future life?"

"Intend……"

"Just preparing to do some work and so on."

"I do not know either……"

"If you want to integrate into human society as soon as possible, finding a job is the best way. Is there anything that Miss Shen He is good at?"

"I know some immortal spells and can also make some immortal talismans..."

"These are all too powerful. It may not be easy to find a job. Can Miss Shen He know something a little more ordinary?"

"My marksmanship is very good."

"You can be an adventurer, but this job is unstable and you have to run around all day. It won't help Miss Shenhe to integrate into human society."

"I have great strength."

"There are a lot of handling jobs on the dock, but this kind of work is too noisy and tiring, and most of the people doing it are men, so it is not suitable for Miss Shen He to deal with."

"Then I...can't..."

There was inevitably a trace of frustration in Shen He's tone.

She has followed her master to practice in the mountains all year round. On weekdays, she eats medicinal herbs such as Qingxin Glaze Bags that grow in the mountains. She does not need and cannot cook. The most common chore she does is to help the master wash clothes.

Apart from what she said, she really couldn't do anything else.

Maybe, I really am not suitable to return to this mortal world...

Shen He thought sadly in his heart.

"Since Ms. Shen He has no definite plans yet, why not come to my shop and give it a try first? How about that?"

"Your... little shop?"

"Yes, Miss Shen He may not know that she just came down the mountain, but I have actually opened a small shop selling special drinks in Liyue. Although there is a waiter in the shop now, sometimes there are too many customers, and she can't do it alone. It will be too busy, and I was thinking about hiring another waiter, but it would be best if Miss Shen He could come to the store to help."

"I've never been a waiter..."

"Just convey the customer's request and help bring the drinks. It's a very simple job."

"Well."

Shen He nodded and agreed.

In her opinion, this is also a kind of care for him.

She finally lived up to her master's trust.

"There are still a few empty rooms upstairs in the store. They are all clean. They just need to be tidied up a little. If Miss Shen He doesn't mind, she can move in with us. It will save some rent money and it will be convenient for work on weekdays. .”

"it is good."

Shen He nodded again. She didn't have many requirements for the living environment.

In her opinion, if she can live with him, she can take care of him to some extent in her daily life.

For example, washing clothes, etc., he couldn't see, so many things were inconvenient, so she could help him.

"As for the work arrangement and remuneration, Miss Shen He has the same standards as the other waiter. She works five days a day and has two days off, nine in the morning and six in the evening. She has a monthly salary of [-] yuan. How about that?"

"it is good."

"Then let's just say this first."

Xia Zhi nodded, "looked" at the golden progress bar on Shen He's body that had turned into [Progress: 3%], and took a sip of the cold tea on the table.

Finally got it.

It doesn't matter whether he cleans the treasure chest or not. He mainly doesn't want to see Little Mother Crane's apprentice suffer.

Although Miss Shen He seemed very powerful, after several exchanges, he could clearly see that she was not very knowledgeable about the world, presumably because she had lived in the mountains for too long.

With such a simple and upright temperament, if she just plunges headlong into human society, there's no telling how much trouble she will get into.

Alas, he also said he would take care of me.

Forget it, let me take care of you.

Chapter 72 What a shame

After drinking a cup of tea, Xia Zhi put down the cup and said, "Miss Yan Fei and I have to discuss business. Miss Shen He, how about I take you back to the store first?"

Shen He looked at him and said, "I want to go with you."

Xia Zhi thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine, Zhuzi may have gone out to play at this time, and you can only stay in the store alone when you go back."

Coming out of the teahouse and walking on the road, with the passionate Yan Fei on the left and the ethereal Shen He on the right, coupled with himself wearing black glasses, Xia Zhi obviously felt that the number of passers-by turning back has increased a lot.

Under the leadership of Yan Fei, the three people walked for a while and arrived at a shop next to the General Affairs Department.

A man wearing glasses stood at the door and said with a smile: "Miss Yanfei, I wonder why you came to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce today?"

Yan Fei smiled and said, "Of course I'm here to introduce business to you. This is Boss Xia. He wants to negotiate a business deal with you."

"That's easy to say! Come in, you three!"

Under the warm greeting of the man named A Xu, the three of them entered the chamber of commerce. As soon as they sat down, a maid served hot tea.

The hospitality etiquette is very considerate and makes people feel very welcome.

Then, a gentle young man walked in and said with a smile: "Miss Yan Fei, long time no see."

He was wearing a brocade shirt and looked elegant, with a knotted pendant hanging around his waist, with a water eye of God embedded in it.

As expected, there was a silver progress bar hanging on his body.

Yan Fei stood up and said with a smile: "Master Xingqiu, long time no see. In fact, we are not a big business, so there is no need for you to come and talk in person."

Xingqiu shook his head: "Every business is business, big or small, and it's the same when I come to discuss it. Hello, two guests, welcome to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce."

Xia Zhi stood up and greeted him politely: "Hello."

Shen He stood up with him and said calmly: "Hello."

Yan Fei helped introduce: "Boss Xia, this is the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Xingqiu; young master Xingqiu, this is the owner of Xia Zhi's shop, Xia Zhi."

Xingqiu looked slightly surprised when he heard this: "Summer shop? Is it the newly opened beverage shop in Feiyunpo?"

Xia Zhi nodded: "Yes, Master Xingqiu also knows about the shop?"

Xingqiu smiled helplessly and said: "I just came over there. In the past two days, I heard several friends talk about how delicious the rainbow juice sold in this store is. Today I wanted to go and have a try, but when I arrived at the store I found that the door was closed before I saw it, and after reading the paper posted on the door, I realized that it was closed for these two days."

"I didn't expect that Young Master Xingqiu's trip was in vain. Next time Young Master Xingqiu comes to the shop again, I will treat you to a drink."

"Thank you very much, Boss Xia. I wonder what kind of business Boss Xia wants to discuss with our Feiyun Chamber of Commerce this time?"

"I heard from Ms. Yanfei that Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has a wide range of contacts, covering materials and products from all over Liyue. It just so happens that our store is planning to add a special takeout service, which requires the use of a large amount of bamboo and reeds."

"Is it just bamboo and reeds? I wonder how much Boss Xia said in large quantities?"

"There are probably dozens of bamboos and hundreds of reeds every day."

"Does it have to be whole?"

"It's not necessary. The shop is planning to use bamboo tubes to replace cups. If transportation is inconvenient, you can also make bamboo tubes the size of water cups first, and the same goes for reeds."

"I understand... but these two items themselves are too cheap. They are everywhere in Qingce Village and Dihua Prefecture. They are easy to collect. But if they are specially transported, reeds are fine, but bamboo tubes take up too much space. It is far better to transport them. Liuli is a good deal, I’m afraid not many caravans are willing to take on this kind of wasted work, unless Boss Xia is willing to pay more.”

"I wonder how much it costs Feiyun Chamber of Commerce to transport Liuli now?"

"Glass is fragile, and the unit price is higher than other items. It is about 20 molad. If you travel a long distance, it will be even higher."

"It's indeed a bit expensive... I don't need the bamboo tube, just the reeds."

"This is simple. Reeds are light and don't take up much space. I'll tell the caravans and ask them to bring a bundle back from Dihua Prefecture. Mr. Xia will just give them a cup of tea when they arrive."

"Master Xingqiu accepts your kindness. Since it is a business, it would be better for us to sign a contract."

"Alright."

Next, Yan Fei and Xing Qiu had a discussion.

After drawing up the contract, Xia Zhi signed it and put away his share of the contract.

"Master Xingqiu, take your leave."

"Boss Xia, take your leave."

Xia Zhi "looked" at the silver progress bar [Progress: 4%] on Xingqiu's body, then turned and left.

Like Miss Yun Jin, there is a lack of interaction in the circle. He cannot access the treasure chest on Master Xingqiu for the time being, and can only wait and see if there is a chance in the future.

When we walked out of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, it was almost noon. Opposite was Liuli Pavilion, where we could take Miss Shen He to have a good meal.

Walking into the Liulic Pavilion, Xia Zhi handed the menu to Yan Fei and Shen He and said with a smile, "Please order whatever you want."

Yan Fei smiled and said, "Boss Xia is very generous, so I won't be polite."

Having said that, Yan Fei didn't order anything expensive, just like last time, she ordered minced meat tofu.
