The five hundred and nineteenth chapter is a master
Liu Mingzhi looked around blankly: "Me me?"
Qi Ya watched narrowly as Liu Mingzhi followed his example and looked around: "Is there anyone else I know around you besides you?"
Well, if you chat like this, I will be speechless. Who knows how many people you know in Beijing.
He was secretly talking about Liu Mingzhi but he didn't dare to say it. He had no choice but to face Qi Ya. Liu Mingzhi felt as if he had an aura of suppression.
Obviously I am a gentleman and have done nothing against the conscience of heaven and earth, but when I face Qi Ya, I always feel like I have done something shameful.
"It's okay, I shouldn't be busy!"
Qi Ya nodded lightly, waved the items in her hand and looked at Young Master Liu with a smile: "Together?"
Liu Mingzhi rubbed his chin: "Sister, are you going to fly the kites?"
"The sky is high and the clouds are clear. Although it is not spring, it is quite suitable to fly kites at this time. Many people outside the city are flying kites. It should be quite interesting."
It seems that because there was no pollution, the summer in ancient times was not particularly hot. Instead, it had a cool breeze, which made people feel uncomfortable.
There was no problem with the weather, but Liu Mingzhi felt strange about going to fly the kites with Qi Ya.
It seems like he is doing something shameful behind someone's back.
"Forget it if you don't want to go, I can just go alone!"
Looking at Mr. Liu's hesitant expression, Qi Ya shrugged calmly, as if nothing happened.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the people rushing around him. No one was paying attention to what he and Qi Ya were talking about. In addition, Qi Ya's indifferent expression made Liu Mingzhi secretly scold himself for being dirty. Qi Ya didn't care and just thought about it on his own.
What kind of strength.
"No problem. Sister, please wait a moment while I buy a paper kite. It's not convenient for two people to buy a paper kite."
"Okay! I'll wait for you."
Liu Mingzhi looked around. He had been distracted and didn't notice that many stalls selling paper kites on the street were shouting to attract customers.
After seeing a relatively large paper kite stall, Liu Mingzhi walked straight over.
"Boss, here's a paper kite."
"Master, what kind of paper kite do you want?"
When the stall owner saw the gorgeously dressed Mr. Liu, he knew that a big customer had arrived and hurriedly greeted him.
"What kind? Let's get a big one, the biggest one."
"Hey, Master, please wait a moment."
The boss turned around and unhooked the largest paper kite from the wooden frame and handed it over: "Master, what do you think of this? This is the biggest paper kite here, little old man!"
Looking at the one-meter-sized paper kite in the boss's hand that looked like a swallow in front of the hall, Young Master Liu shook his head: "It's too small. Is there a bigger one? Money is not an issue."
"Is this still young?"
The boss looked at the paper kite in his hand and looked at Young Master Liu tangledly: "This young master does have a bigger one, about seven feet tall, which is at the little old man's house. Can you wait for a while, little old man?
Go get it right away."
"how long?"
"It's time to make a cup of tea, just turn a corner and you'll be there."
"Okay, I'll take care of the stall for you first, and you can go ahead."
"Thank you, Master."
The ancients seemed to be really honest. They handed the stall directly to Mr. Liu and then went home to pick up the paper kites.
"Sir, how do you sell your paper kites?"
Not long after the boss left, business came to the door. A girl with a ladylike appearance, accompanied by a maid, shyly held up a paper kite with a lotus on it and looked at Mr. Liu to inquire about the price.
With Xiaojiabiyu's shy look, I don't know whether she is attracted to Zhiyuan or to Young Master Liu.
"ah?"
Liu Mingzhi stared at the paper kite in the girl's hand and didn't know how much it would be. If it was more, it wouldn't be appropriate. If it was less, the boss would definitely suffer.
"Why don't you give me a tael of silver?"
In Young Master Liu's opinion, the cheapest price is only one tael of silver.
The girl looked at Young Master Liu shyly and nodded gently: "You can pay as much as you want, Ling'er will give you the money."
"Miss, are you stupid? Others are selling this kite for thirty cents, and he is just a profiteer for asking for one tael of silver. Do you really want to buy it?"
The girl blushed for a moment and nodded gently: "Well, give me the money!"
After listening to the maid's words, Young Master Liu realized that he was really evil. What's the difference between asking someone for a tael of silver for a 30-cent paper kite and robbing money?
"No, Miss, just really want to give thirty cents. I was just joking with Miss, don't take it seriously."
The girl was stunned and her face turned even redder. She gently turned the small fan in her hand a few times and gave some coins to Young Master Liu. She then ran out in a panic while holding the paper kite and the maid.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the purse in his hand and showed a strange smile: "This young master is really loved by everyone."
After the tea time passed, Liu Mingzhi saw the boss trotting over carrying a paper kite about two meters long.
"Master, you've been waiting for a long time. This mandarin duck playing with water, clouds and paper kite is really too big. I thought no one would buy it."
"It's okay if it's big. My young master, everything is big, even the paper kite needs to be enlarged. How much does it cost?"
"Young master, just give me three coins. It's not that I sell it expensively. It takes too much effort!"
Liu Mingzhi touched his pocket: "I don't have three coins, can I have five taels?"
"No, the little old man who has five taels will pay five to five taels?"
Young Master Liu gave the boss a piece of silver, a handful of copper coins, and several wallets.
"It's all the money I paid for it."
The boss looked at Mr. Liu's back holding the paper kite and the copper plate on the stall and issued some certificates: "It's good to be handsome. He can sell it for so much money. I really don't know how he sells it."
"Sister, let's go. We've bought the kite. Which city gate should we go to?"
"Let's go to the south gate. The terrain there is open and the environment is beautiful. It's the best place to fly kites. There are quite a lot of people there, so it's more lively."
"Okay, I can go wherever the elder sister says. It's all up to you."
The two were chatting and laughing, and Liu Mingzhi told a few jokes from time to time, serious jokes that made Qi Ya laugh.
In this atmosphere, the previous gap between the two seemed to gradually become indifferent, and the formal feeling disappeared.
"Hey, Master, why are you here?"
"Well? Yes, it's you."
Li Buyi's face trembled, and he looked at Young Master Liu in panic.
"Master, aren't you a Taoist priest?"
"Of course the poor monk is a Taoist priest!"
"Then what are you doing?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Buyi, who was wearing a bright yellow cassock, a Buddhist relic hanging around his neck, a string of Buddhist beads rubbing in his hand, and a whisk hanging on his arm. This look was a bit unique.
Both Buddhist and Taoist equipment are available. Is this Buddhist or Taoist?
"Oh, you said cassock, isn't it so that you can get along well with fellow Buddhists after being punished by heaven?"
"Aren't you afraid that Taoists and Buddhists will say that you are neither fish nor fowl?"
"Amitabha Infinite Lord, Buddhism emphasizes that there is no self and no living beings, and all living beings are Buddhas. Taoism cultivates the way of nature, without desires and pursuits. The ultimate goal of both Buddha and Tao is to reach the same destination through different paths. It doesn't matter what a poor Taoist wears.
What's the difference?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded understandingly: "Master, you are an expert!"
