Xiao Cheng came to the office building and went directly to the door of Hu Gan's house and asked directly.

"Is Dean Hu Gan here? I am Xiao Cheng"

Hu Gan, who was chatting with his granddaughter in the house, suddenly heard the voice and felt it was very familiar. When he heard Xiao Cheng's name, he remembered that it was Xiao Cheng, the pastry seller.

"Come in, I'm here"

Xiao Cheng pushed the door in and saw Hu Jia in the room, and couldn't help but said curiously.

"Hey, Hu Jia, why are you here?"

"Hehe, Boss Xiao, what kind of wind blew you here?"

Obviously this is Hu Jia joking with him again.

"What's wrong with me? I just came to discuss some business matters with your grandfather."

he smiled.

"Business matters?"

Hu Jia murmured in confusion.

At this time, Hu Gan said with a smile.

"Hu Jia, please go out first. Xiao Cheng and I still have some things to discuss."

Knowing that her grandfather wanted to discuss something very important with Xiao Cheng, she nodded and left.

Just before leaving, she glanced at him quietly before leaving.

"Tell me, what do you want from me, an old man?"

Xiao Cheng didn't hide it, so he recommended his Five-worm Cake to Hu Gan.

At this moment, the dean finally understood what this guy was up to, and he was just here to sell it.

He smiled and shook his head.

"You kid, you want to discuss business with me as soon as you come here, ugh"

He spread his hands helplessly and said.

"There is no other way, you have to make money."

Seeing this, he shook his head helplessly. He was also quite helpless towards this boy, but he still thought about it and asked.

"Your Five-worm Cake really has the power to restore a person's state?"

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Xiao Cheng also pretended to take Five-worm Cake from his arms. In fact, he took out a piece of Five-worm Cake prepared in advance from the system's personal backpack and handed it to Hu Gan, patting his chest and saying.

"This is Five-worm Cake, you try it first, as the saying goes, hearing is false, seeing is believing."

After hearing what he said, the dean also smiled. After looking at the Five-worm Cake in his hand, there was nothing unusual about it, so he took a bite.

It doesn't taste like anything, it's not sweet, it's not salty, it just tastes like whole grains.

After a moment, his eyes suddenly widened, because he felt that his entire state seemed to have returned to its peak, and some of the fatigue had disappeared without a trace, which really surprised him.

He looked at Five-worm Cake in his hand, then at Xiao Cheng, and sighed when he saw him smiling at him.

"I really didn't expect that I could actually recover. And if I had such a piece of Five-worm Cake at the critical moment of the battle, I could definitely turn defeat into victory."

"You are right, why don't you order some? The more you order, the more discounts you will get!"

He said in a seductive tone.

Hu Gan smiled and shook his head.

"You kid, forget it, I'll order first..."

When I was thinking about how much to order, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't asked about the price of Xiao Cheng and Five-worm Cake yet, so I asked.

"How much does this Five-worm Cake cost?"

"It's not expensive, two thousand Gold Coins for one piece"

Even if he was the dean, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when this number was reported.

"Two thousand Gold Coins! Are you trying to steal money?"

Xiao Cheng said with a wry smile.

"The actual effect of two thousand Gold Coins and Five-worm Cake is really cheap. The worst you can do is buy less."

"Okay, okay, old man, I am willing to be tricked by you once. I will order thirty yuan."

He waved his hand and said to Xiao Cheng.

"Okay, Dean, it seems that you are also an open-minded person, so I will give you a discount, one thousand eight hundred yuan, and I will charge you two hundred less Gold Coins"

In fact, he had asked the system about this discount a long time ago, and the answer given by the system was that the discount could be between one hundred and three hundred.

This means that you can reduce the price of a certain pastry by 100 to 300 Gold Coins. Any more will not work. This is the maximum discount authority that the system can operate within the current range of Shopkeeper Level.

He was also speechless about the system, which only offered a discount of three hundred Gold Coins. It would have been fine if it had a discount of five hundred Gold Coins.

It's just that his current Shopkeeper Level is still too low and his authority is insufficient.

This made him sigh secretly.

After negotiating the Five-worm Cake deal with Hu Gan, we successfully advanced the progress of Five-worm Cake by another quarter. As long as we sell for 60 yuan, we have completed the task.

But so far, the only people who know about his Ruyi Zhai are Rakshasa Gate and Jia Nan Academy. By the way, I almost forgot that there is also Eight Sects Gate.

Now that I think about it, I don't know if the Eight Sects Gate elder named Mu Jie has ever seen Yuan Yi. If he had, there would be a high chance that he would sell some of Five-worm Cake and other pastries.

As his thoughts were wandering, Dean Hu Gan's voice sounded.

"Xiao Cheng, I don't know how many days you plan to stay when you come back this time, or whether you will go back immediately."

Hearing Hu Gan's inquiry, he came back from his thoughts, thought about it and said.

"I'm not too busy right now, but I have to promote my store, so I'm thinking of ways to expand my reputation recently."

He nodded and stopped trying to keep Xiao Cheng. After chatting with him for a while, Xiao Cheng got up and left.

When he walked out of the office building, he didn't know whether it was a coincidence or fate, but he actually met the cheap apprentice who was now very "personalized".

"Hey, Master, when did you come?"

Hearing this sound, he turned his head and couldn't help but scream.

"I'm going, where are the monsters and ghosts coming from? Look at me Mighty Fist"

Peng!

Old Man Huo was knocked out without any precautions and flew four or five meters away.

After the beating, he suddenly felt something was wrong, so he stared at the man carefully and said suddenly.

"You are Old Man Huo. Why is your hair green?"

This is going to be a green road to the end.

Although Old Man Huo was knocked out, fortunately Xiao Cheng didn't use much strength. After he stood up, when he heard Xiao Cheng's question, a look of embarrassment flashed across his face, and he was obviously a little embarrassed to say it.

Seeing his expression, he seemed to have figured out something. This guy seemed to be studying his pastries. Could it be...

"Did you do something with my pastries to make you look like this unconventional green-haired person?"

Old Man Huo didn't know what to say, so he could only nod his head with a slightly red face as an indirect admission.

He couldn't help but cover his face.

These disciples are really a reckless bunch.

"Apprentice, can we be more cautious? You can't eat my cakes thoroughly. Look at how green you are. This is ruining the atmosphere of Ruyi Zhai."

Seeing his master's expression of hatred, the old man also said with a smile.

"I will immediately find a way to restore my hair to its original state."

"Well, this attitude is okay. I won't do it next time."

So Old Man Huo went back to restore his hair under some "teaching" from Xiao Cheng.

As for what method this cheap apprentice would use to restore his original hair color, he had no control over it.

After looking at the sky, it was almost afternoon, and it was time to go back to Rakshasa City, so he randomly found a remote place, looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, and spoke directly to the system through his mind.

"Deduct the transmission fee and transmit it, Money-Grubbing System"

The transmission fee has been deducted, host please prepare 3...2...1

But now something unexpected happened.

"System, your uncle's ###¥#"

With a burst of intense greetings to the system's relatives, he disappeared on the spot.
