I am a retired rider in Xingtie, and I am loved by players.

"What's going on over there at the dock? Why are there so many people gathered there?"

"It seems that there was a quarrel between the company people and the dock workers."

Adhering to the principle of watching the fun, Bai Lu immediately forgot why she came to Qingwanzhai:

"We can buy the medicine jars later. If we miss the excitement, we'll miss it... No, no, no, I mean, what if someone gets hurt? How about we go over and take a look?"

After getting Xing's nod of agreement, she took the lead and led everyone into the crowd. They arrived in front of the pier, and before they got close, they heard a quarrel coming from not far away.

"Speak nicely and don't bully others—"

"Hey! Where did this wild girl come from? What does this have to do with you?"

It sounded like someone wanted to mediate a fight, but was ridiculed by one of the parties involved.

"As a Cloud Rider, how can I just sit back and watch a conflict happen on the dock? Also, my name is not Hey, and I'm not Wild Girl. My name is Su Chang."

Yilu looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl with brown twin ponytails dressed like a Cloud Cavalry soldier standing between the two quarreling parties, speaking righteously.

"Girl, let us, the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce, handle this matter."

The Chamber of Commerce secretary standing behind her tugged at Su Chang's sleeve and said somewhat embarrassedly.

This should have been a matter between them and the company, but they didn't expect that outsiders would be involved - the problem is that their Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce is not in the right now, after all, they are the ones who owe the dock rent.

"You are... from the Chamber of Commerce?"

"Huh? You guys are the ones who handle it? That's hilarious!"

The man in sunglasses standing on the other side looked at Su Shang and the Chamber of Commerce representative behind her with a haughty look in his voice:

"Everyone watching here knows that our Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce is poorly managed and incompetent. Now the rent for this wharf is in arrears. Who can you blame for this?"

"Uh……"

"Isn't this all your Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce's fault?" he said aggressively.

"We don't deny this."

The Chamber of Commerce secretary sighed.

"Then speak louder, and say, 'We, the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce, are sorry for the shops here. We messed up the dock business. The people in the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce are all useless people who eat for free!' Then kowtow to me loudly with the numbers of the overdue rent dates, and apologize to me, the representative of the company!"

"It sounds like it's a problem with the dock rent being overdue..."

After listening for a while, Xing and Sanyueqi probably figured out the reason for the dispute between the two parties.

Just as they had seen before, the business in Jinren Lane was a little slow, even bleak, so much so that the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce could not afford the rent for the wharf, and the company was going to take back the right to use the wharf.

Although the company is in the right, the tone of voice of the company representative... always makes people want to beat him up.

"Hey! You're too arrogant. Can't we discuss the issue of overdue rent?"

Su Chang put her hands on her hips. She really wanted to beat someone up, but unfortunately, apart from the arrogant tone, the other party did not actually do anything illegal or against the law. She could only verbally accuse the company representative in front of her.

"I wanted to talk to them nicely, but they can't pay it back. They turned such a good place like Jinren Lane into such a mess. Who wouldn't be heartbroken to see it?"

"Who... who said the Chamber of Commerce will definitely not be able to pay it back? What if it can?" Su Chang said with some guilt.

"Oh, can you pay it back? I don't even dare to think about it... How about this, let's make a bet. If the Chamber of Commerce can pay back the company's rent, I will kowtow to you respectfully in front of all the elders and villagers in Jinren Lane."

The man in sunglasses spread his hands, his tone becoming more and more sarcastic: "Whoever loses has to loudly say "I am a blind idiot, I don't know how high the sky is, I can only bark!" and then imitate a few dog barks, how about that?"

"A word is settled!"

When it comes to bickering, Su Chang is not even as good as an elementary school student and was quickly trapped by the other party. She agreed on impulse without knowing the business conditions of the dock.

Seeing the man in sunglasses preparing to leave the dock arrogantly, she instantly broke out in a sweat, but it was too late to regret.

Damn it, why didn't I think about it before I spoke? How could I agree to something like this so easily?!

But with so many people watching nearby, Su Chang couldn't show her regret, so she could only bite the bullet and continue pretending nothing had happened.

"Hey, don't go, wait a moment."

Just as the company representative was about to leave with the troublemaker, a silver-haired girl suddenly came out and stopped behind them, looking at them with interest and said:

"I just heard about your bet, it seems interesting. How about taking me along?"

"Oh, it's only been a short while and another one comes?"

The man in sunglasses took off his sunglasses and glanced at the silver-haired girl in front of him: "What do you want to bet on?"

As the representative of the company, he knew very well the current situation of the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce. These incompetent people could do nothing at all. From the very beginning, this was a gamble that the company was bound to win.

"I'm going to bet that you're going to lose."

"Haha, we will lose? Don't be kidding, little white hair."

The man in sunglasses was happy.

"Not only that, I'm going to add a bet."

As she spoke, Yilu took out a large bottle of soda bean juice from her folding space and stared expressionlessly into the eyes of the company representative in front of her:

"Whoever loses will have to drink this bottle of soda bean juice in front of everyone. Do you dare to agree?"

"Oh, what's there to be afraid of? It's not me who's drinking it anyway."

The man in sunglasses put his hands on his hips and agreed. However, Su Chang, who was standing not far behind him, turned pale. When she thought about having to drink a whole bottle of soda bean juice if she lost, even though she was always brave and fearless, her legs went weak.

Oh no, I didn’t check the almanac before going out and I met Xianzhou Laogou. How come there are still people who like soda bean juice? !

Alas, she now had a reason not to lose no matter what.

After the company representative left, Su Chang hurriedly asked the secretary of the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce behind her, and learned about the current development of Jinren Lane from the woman named Mingxi.

It can only be said that apart from the snack business, other business is in a mess. The business at the dock has even reached the point where it is stretched to the limit. There are simply not many shops willing to sign orders with the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce.

"It's okay. With our help, things will get better."

Since Yilu also joined the bet, Xing naturally couldn't just stand by and watch. She rolled up her sleeves and decided to join the action of reviving the glory of Jinren Lane. She and Suchang immediately moved a large pile of goods to the Xingcha at the dock.

However, this can only increase the efficiency of cargo transportation at the port, but cannot change the source of the problem - "Heyun Logistics" does not deliver the goods at all. If the goods are moved, they can only stay there and wait.

"How about this, let's go to Heyun Logistics and see what's going on there."

……

Soon, with the help of Yilu and his team, the troubles at "Heyun Logistics" were successfully resolved. After planning the operation route, the mechanical bird fluttered towards the dock with the cargo.

They also got a lot of information about the shops in Jinren Lane from the person in charge of logistics. They learned that many new faces had come to Changletian in recent days. If they could attract these foreigners to Jinren Lane to consume, perhaps Jinren Lane would be able to regain its former prosperity.

"Leave the matter of attracting customers to me and Yilu. We are both quite familiar with the roads in Changletian."

Xing volunteered to leave Jinren Lane with Yilu, and the two returned to the bustling streets of Changletian. This time they did not see the white-haired woman sitting on the street playing the erhu, and Xing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that the crazy woman is not here, they can attract customers with peace of mind.

"Where's the billboard Aunt Gao gave us?"

"Here, it's already laid out."

"Come on, shout."

"Golden offal, delicious and inexpensive!"

In order to enhance the flavor and taste of the barbecue, Yilu no longer used the ordinary wooden skewers provided by Aunt Gao. Instead, she used the power of "abundance" to create ginkgo wooden skewers with a mellow aroma.

This abundant creation emits a rich aroma when burned with flames. It only takes a few minutes to marinate the meat skewered on it, giving it an enticing fragrance that even pure vegetarians will be attracted to.

Not long after, Yilu and Xing welcomed the first customer of their "Shang Ziwei" branch. A petite girl wearing blue-black local clothes appeared in front of their stall.

"Wow! What a delicious smell!"

Looking at the barbecue on the grill, Qingque immediately drooled, and when she saw the owner of the stall, her eyes widened.

"Huh? Why are you guys here?!"

"Is such that……"

Yi Lu told Qingque about the bet they had made with the company in Jinren Lane. Upon learning that the two heroes who had saved the Xianzhou were still advertising for the run-down Jinren Lane and attracting customers before leaving, Qingque burst into tears... tears flowed from the corners of her mouth.

"Such delicious barbecue, I must promote it for you."

She took out her cell phone and immediately shared the store address of "Shang Ziwei" in more than a dozen Diyuan Qiongyu groups. Relying on the connections Qingque had accumulated while playing cards, there must be at least 3000 people in her dozen group chats. This alone gave Jinren Lane a lot of publicity.

"Didi——!"

At this moment, Qingque's cell phone suddenly rang. Her face suddenly changed and she had a bad feeling. When she saw the sender's profile picture, she immediately held her forehead and sighed.

"Ruined."

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Xing asked with a concerned look on his face.

"I accidentally sent the barbecue photo to the work group. Lady Taibu... Oh, let's not talk about it for now. I have to get back to work. Good luck to you guys. Bye~"

"..."

Watching Qingque leave in a hurry, Yilu and Xing looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and then continued to devote themselves to their current business.

Without feeling sorry for Qingque's departure, the next person to rush to the barbecue stall was Yan Qing, the genius swordsman of Luofu Xianzhou.

"Ah! It's Xing, and Teacher Ilu!"

Yan Qing was strolling on the streets of Changletian with a sword on his back. He seemed to be surveying something out of the corner of his eye. He noticed Yilu and Xing who were setting up a barbecue stall not far away. His eyes immediately lit up and he hurried over to greet them.

"Uh… when did I become a teacher?"

Yilu felt a little ashamed.

"When I was in the Scaled Abyss Realm, I learned a lot from the sword you swung. Thank you for your teachings. If Teacher Yilu needs any help, please let me know."

After saying that, Yan Qing looked at the two people skillfully grilling and skewering meat, and asked in confusion: "By the way, I remember that the general should have given you a lot of patrol arrows, why are you..."

"It's like this, we do have something that needs your help, Yanqing..."

Knowing that the other party was willing to return her a favor, Yilu thought about it and decided to tell Yanqing that the shops in Jinren Lane needed customer traffic.

I don't know if he can help, but since I've met him, I might as well tell him.

"I see. Since this is Teacher Yilu's wish, I, Yanqing, will definitely live up to your trust. I will recommend the shops you mentioned to the Cloud Cavalry Army later, so that they can come to Jinren Lane more often to eat some snacks during their breaks, which can also be regarded as making some contribution to the revival of Jinren Lane."

After learning the real reason why Yilu and Xing set up a stall here, Yan Qing was in awe. He immediately picked up his phone and shared the store address of "Shang Ziwei" with the Yunqi Army soldiers who were recuperating at home, thus boosting the train team's performance.

"By the way, Yanqing, why are you shopping here in Changletian? Did General Jingyuan give you a vacation?"

When Yan Qing was about to leave, Xing asked with some confusion.

"Go shopping on vacation... that's not the case."

Hearing this, Yan Qing shook his head. He glanced around and saw that no one was eavesdropping. He lowered his voice and said to the two of them:

"Since you are all distinguished guests of the Immortal Boat, it would be okay to reveal this matter to you..."

"Recently, a lot of foreigners have flocked to Changletian. You should be able to see a lot of unfamiliar faces when you set up a stall here. A few days ago, someone reported to the Land and Investiture Bureau that the remnants of the "Secret Medicine King" appeared here."

"The secret of the King of Medicine?"

Hearing this, Yilu blinked in surprise: "Shouldn't Changletian's "Secret of the King of Medicine" have been completely wiped out?"

"No, because the "Secret of the King of Medicine" launched a full-scale rebellion in the Danding Division, the main force of the Cloud Cavalry Army quickly gathered there, and did not completely wipe out the remnants of the "Secret of the King of Medicine" in Changletian."

Yan Qing shook his head and continued:

"Although the leader of the "Secret of the King of Medicine" fell in the battle at Danding Division, they still have many back-ups hidden in the dark. If these spies had not shown up on their own initiative, it would have been difficult for us to discover them in the first place."

"Yesterday, the Cloud Cavalry seized a handwritten note from a body refiner. The purpose of this group of stray dogs who lost their master to come to Changletian is to find a person named "Bai Linglan" and try to support her as the new leader of the "Secret Medicine King" and let this evil force revive in Luofu Xianzhou."

"What the hell?"

Yilu was stunned on the spot, with question marks written all over her face.

No, wait, how did an undercover agent like me suddenly become the leader of "The Secret of the King of Medicine"?

"Puchi! White Belle of the Valley, hahahaha!"
