Chapter 51: Marriage Reminder from Forbe
The carriage walked slowly for more than an hour before entering Guide Fucheng. Compared with Shangqiu County, Fucheng was obviously much more prosperous, and there were an endless stream of small stalls and hawkers along the way.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of a large house with three entrances.
"It turns out that the old man is here. No wonder the magpies on the branches were chirping early this morning."
As soon as Su Hao and Meng Yan got off the carriage, they heard an elegant voice behind them.
"Master Lu, did you just come back from going out?"
Turning around and seeing Lu Zhen standing behind the carriage, Meng Yan was a little surprised and said.
Su Hao also looked at Lu Zhen curiously. She was about thirty or forty years old, wearing a sky blue Confucian robe, with sharp features, an elegant long beard and a touch of vicissitudes of temperament washed over the years. She was a perfect young killer.
"Yes, I just went out to do a feng shui check for someone."
Lu Zhen smiled and said: "You two, please come in!"
Under the leadership of Lu Zhen, Meng Yan and the two came to the lobby.
"Master Lu, let me introduce to you, this is our new chief catcher in Shangqiu County, Captain Su, a fellow man!"
Meng Yan introduced with a serious expression.
Headhunting?
Fellow people?
Hearing Meng Yan's words, Lu Zhen looked confused and looked at Meng Yan in confusion. Is this wrong? A left-behind warlock is going to be the head catcher?
But after all, he is a person who has seen the world. Lu Zhen quickly came to his senses and said hello with a smile: "Captain Su!"
"Master Lu, my little brother has just arrived in Shangqiu County, and I happen to lack something for cultivation. I heard that Master Lu has many friends and has countless treasures at home, so I came here specially to buy some things for cultivation."
Su Hao stated his purpose directly. He had no friendship with Lu Zhen, so it would be more appropriate to discuss the business directly.
"I wonder what kind of treasures Captor Su needs?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhen was not polite. In addition to Feng Shui, the Lu family also bought and sold various spiritual things.
"The bark of the spirit tree or the demon tree should be older, preferably two or three hundred years old."
Su Hao said what he wanted. The paper skin of the natal paper figurine and the paper figurine that spreads paper to become a weapon require tree bark as raw materials. The paper figurine that spreads paper to transform into a weapon is fine. Ordinary spirit trees
Or the bark of a demon tree can be used. The bark of the natal paper man requires bark from a spiritual tree or demon tree that is at least two to three hundred years old.
"You two come with me."
Lu Zhen said in a deep voice, and after finishing speaking, he stood up and led the way.
Arriving at an empty courtyard, Meng Yan and Su Hao were waiting in the courtyard, while Lu Zhen walked alone into a room with walls covered with array patterns and talismans, which was obviously a warehouse where the Lu family stored treasures.
After a while, Lu Zhen came out holding a large piece of bark, which seemed to weigh hundreds of kilograms.
"Su Baotou, this is the bark of the Sophora japonica tree demon. The tree is about three hundred years old."
Lu Zhen spread out the bark of the tree, and a strong demonic and ghostly aura suddenly spread out.
"good!"
After studying it carefully, Su Hao nodded: "Master Lu, I wonder how this piece of bark is valued?"
"Fifteen hundred taels of silver."
Lu Zhen opened his mouth and said.
"Master Lu, this price is too expensive."
Hearing this, Su Hao shook his head and said: "I sincerely want this piece of bark, eight hundred taels, I guess."
"Su Captou, eight hundred taels of silver is too little."
Lu Zhen said in a deep voice: "Lv, take a step back, one thousand three hundred taels."
"One thousand taels."
Su Hao said calmly: "If the Lu family leader thinks it is possible, then let's make the deal. If the Lu family leader thinks it is not possible, then we can cooperate again in the future if there is a chance."
Although two to three hundred taels of silver is nothing to him now, it does not mean that he is a good person. He and Lu Zhen will probably have to trade in the future. The price is too high this time, and it will be difficult to lower the price in future transactions.
Seeing Su Hao's resolute attitude, Lu Zhen frowned. After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since Su Baotou said so, then this deal will be in accordance with Su Baotou's decision."
Although Su Hao's price is not high, he still makes a profit and there is no need to break up the bargain. Of course, the main reason is because this kind of bark is not a rare thing. The price is enough. If he doesn't sell it,
Others will sell it too.
"Then thank you very much, Master Lu."
Su Hao cupped his hands and took out eight small gold bars weighing twelve ounces from the package he carried with him. He didn't bring much money with him this time, only twelve small gold bars. Nowadays, gold and
The exchange ratio of silver is about one tael of gold to thirteen taels of silver. The value of eight small gold bars is already more than one thousand taels of gold.
"Captain Su, wait a moment."
Lu Zhen collected the eight small gold bars and walked out of the yard, asking the housekeeper to find the money.
After buying the bark and exchanging pleasantries with Lu Zhen, Su Hao and Meng Yan stood up and left.
………
Su family.
In a room in the backyard, a large water tank was placed in the middle. Su Hao slowly sank the tree bark into the water tank until the bark was completely submerged in water.
"change!"
Su Hao held up the mysterious and unusual seals with both hands, and the mana blended into the water along with the seals. The next moment, Su Hao gave a low drink, and then the water in the entire water tank suddenly boiled.
At this time, the bark in the water seemed to have encountered concentrated acid. It began to dissolve little by little, and the water in the water tank gradually turned white. As time passed, the water in the water tank became less and less.
Sticky until it turns into a white paste.
"out!"
Su Hao turned the magic seal in his hand and fired out a stream of magic power again. Then, the white paste in the water tank boiled again. The next moment, small white paper figures jumped out from the white paste.
When only 20-30% of the white paste was left, Su Hao transformed the seal again and refined all the remaining white paste into paper.
When the last piece of paper was formed, Su Hao slumped on the ground with a pale expression. He quickly took the water bag on the side and took a big gulp of tiger bone wine. He used the Yang Yuan Jue to speed up the digestion of the medicine in the tiger bone wine.
.
After a long time, Su Hao finally recovered, but his face was still pale and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He quickly took another sip of tiger bone wine.
At this time, Uncle Fu, who was guarding the side, suddenly said: "Master, I don't want to worry about what you want to do, but it's time for the Master to leave a heir for the Su family."
Su Hao, who was running Yang Yuan Jue to digest the power of tiger bone wine, suddenly froze.
Uncle Fu ignored Su Hao and thought to himself: "In these days, the number of times the young master has taken action has been more than the number of times the master has taken action in a year. Although the young master is still young and has tiger bone wine to nourish him, he can't hold on.
Live like this and consume it.”
"The young master must stay with the Su family before his physical strength is seriously injured. The Su family has been passed down to this day, and the incense cannot be cut off from the young master."
Hearing this, Su Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly. In his previous life, he was forced to get married and have children. He didn't expect that he could not escape this situation even after traveling through time.
