Chapter 110: The little secret is discovered
In stark contrast to the tense atmosphere here, Qi Xu was surprised that the little ghost activated its attack by absorbing evil spirits. It was really just an accident.
After coming down the mountain, Qi Xu originally wanted to put the little ghost into the blood bracelet, but was ruthlessly rejected by the little ghost.
Qi Xu guessed what the little ghost was thinking. After entering the yard, he put the little ghost in the bedroom and then went with Jiang Hongyi to check on the condition of Grandpa Qi and An An.
"You're back."
Qi Hong looked at the two people who pushed the door open, struggled to stand up with the help of a cane, raised his head and greeted them with a smile.
He looked at Qi Xu, and there were some elements in his eyes that Qi Xu could not understand.
"Grandpa, we're back. We'll cook dinner soon."
Qi Xu took two steps forward, hugged Old Man Qi and patted his back.
She was really grateful that her grandfather was still alive and well, which made her feel more secure and motivated to work hard and fight against the evil forces.
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for Qi Yatou's meal."
Due to Qi Hong's injury, he has not been able to eat particularly nourishing food recently, and can only cook some slightly nourishing meals.
For example, fried yam with black fungus, celery and diced chicken, and calming and liver-nourishing soup.
"Grandpa, our crystal shop will be open soon. When we make money, we can buy you some more medicine to replenish your body."
After Qi Xu prepared the meal and served it, he told Qi Hong the good news.
Qi Hong just smiled and nodded in response.
After the family had finished their meal, Jiang Hongyi consciously went to wash the pots and dishes. An An, noticing that the atmosphere was not right, also followed to wash the dishes.
"Qi girl, do you think she went to heaven?"
These words were so incoherent that Qi Xu was unable to react for a while.
She was stunned for several seconds, and suddenly realized who Qi Hong was talking about.
"Qi girl, you will definitely be my granddaughter in your next life."
Qi Hong seemed to see another person through Qi Xu's face.
"grandfather……"
"Qi girl, I know you are not her."
"I wasn't sure at first. My little Qi has always been very attached to me. Whenever something happens, she'll call me grandpa first. She relies on me a lot."
At this moment, Qi Xu was very sure that the person Grandpa Qi was talking about was the original owner, the Qi Xu before her rebirth.
"Grandpa, she will definitely be your granddaughter in the next life."
Qi Xu now felt that it was useless to say anything extra. He walked forward cautiously and hugged Qi Hong, tears streaming down his eyes.
"You are also a good child. I know that I am still alive today because you and Jiang Hongyi worked hard to save me."
"Child, you must promise me that no matter what the time or how dangerous it is, you must protect your own safety."
Qi Hong's eyes also turned red. He patted Qi Xu on the back and said what he wanted to say most.
The two of them communicated with each other, and Qi Xu no longer concealed anything and told Qi Hong about his ability in metaphysics.
This made Qi Hong even more worried, and he repeatedly reminded people of the importance of safety.
Qi Xu understood Mr. Qi's anxiety, so he took out his own amulet and sewed it on the lining of Qi Hong's shoulder.
"Grandpa, you have to protect yourself too, so that Jiang Hongyi and I can charge into battle outside without worry."
Then she put the amulet that Old Xie had given her on Qi Hong's wrist and said, "Grandpa, even though these are just little gadgets, they are still very useful in critical moments."
After that, their relationship became closer, and Qi Xu obviously felt that Qi Hong treated her better.
Three days passed in a flash, and Qi Xu specially chose the auspicious time of ten o'clock in the morning to open the store.
'Crackle, crackle.'
A burst of firecrackers rang out, followed by cheers from the crowd.
"Don't miss it if you're passing by. As long as you buy any bracelet in the store, you will get a free fortune-telling. On the first day of opening, the free fortune-telling will be given to the first 100 customers who come into the store and make a purchase."
When Qi Xu opened his business, he not only calculated an auspicious time, but also whether the business would go smoothly.
The hexagram indicates an auspicious sign, and all problems will be solved.
The store was originally scheduled to open yesterday, but Mr. Xie and Mr. Tian were still not back. So, the opening date was postponed for a day, waiting for the two elders to come back. After a full day of rest, the store was finally opened.
"Come in and take a look. If your fortune telling is wrong, you'll get free gifts with all your purchases!"
As soon as this big investment gimmick was put forward, many young people who were interested in fortune-telling came into the store to shop.
"Oh my god, this is the first time I've seen a bracelet of this color. Is this crystal or jade? I've never seen it before."
"My wife will definitely like this bracelet. I'll buy it as a gift for her."
"How much is this pearl necklace?"
The store suddenly became crowded, and Qi Xu was almost overwhelmed. No, no, no, to be precise, it was Jiang Hongyi who couldn't handle it.
Many young girls pestered Jiang Hongyi and asked him all kinds of questions.
At this time, Jiang Hongyi couldn't keep a straight face, so he could only bite the bullet and answer the questions one word at a time, two words at a time, three words at a time.
When things became unbearable, Jiang Hongyi would direct some of the people to go to Qi Xu to settle the bill, and then direct the other part to go to see Mr. Tian for fortune-telling.
At the beginning, some people did not believe in fortune-telling and only wanted to believe in the power of science.
As a result, within two minutes, Mr. Tian asked all the people who came in for fortune-telling to leave in disbelief.
"Amazing! Amazing! That master's predictions were so accurate! He told me everything about the ups and downs of my life, starting from when I was a child."
"That's right, I even asked him to calculate my test scores. I thought I got a lot of questions wrong, but the master gave me a very good result. That means I don't have to worry about my grades this afternoon."
"I just didn't believe it, so I asked when my calf was born. The master calculated it for me exactly!"
Many customers went from not believing at all to believing very much.
That change in attitude is really hard to guard against.
It was not enough to have only Qi Xu working as the cashier in the store, so she asked the five employees who peeled pearls to come to the store to help, and they would also receive commission based on the sales and settle the payment on the same day.
This kind of salary is not something that everyone can afford.
Yes, I think Qi Xu is the only boss who can pay wages like this now.
However, the reason why the store sold so well on the first day of opening was not only due to the attraction of the store’s opening benefits, but also due to the displays in the store.
The display in the store is exactly the same as the decoration of the 21st century jewelry store. The glass cabinets, small mirrors, and various accessories are all designed by Qi Xu one by one.
This will attract more old customers to return for multiple shopping trips.
Jiang Hongyi found that his attitude couldn't be too nice, because if he was, the girl would keep asking him questions.
"Dad, Dad, please help Mom. Mom can't collect all the money."
An An came out from some corner, grabbed Jiang Hongyi's hand tightly, stared at him with big eyes, puffed out her mouth, and said fiercely.
Then, the sensible girl knew in a second that Jiang Hongyi, the handsome man, was a married man.
