There was a trace of intoxication on the face of the sloppy old man, an expression that could even be seen by eating a candy. Lin Yong waved his hands angrily and cursed: "Where are you beggars? Get out of here!"
I thought I was overworked in the past two days and my accuracy was bad. I didn't expect that this old beggar robbed me halfway. I have never seen such a bold beggar. Lin Yong rolled up his sleeves. Fanglin Garden has been recruiting beggars these past two days.
Many customers were scared away, and a lot of business was lost. If this old guy didn't know the truth, he was going to take some tough measures.
The old man held the candy in his mouth and nodded with satisfaction. He didn't care about Lin Yong's actions just now. He pointed at the box in his hand, looked at him and asked, "Where can I buy this?"
This kind of milk candy is only sold in Jingguo Kyoto. This is the first time he has seen it elsewhere after leaving Kyoto.
"Whatever you have to sell or not, let's go quickly." Lin Yong waved his hand and stopped arguing with him about what happened just now. Thinking about it, there is nothing to argue with a beggar. On the contrary, his status will be lowered.
"Quickly go, if you ever..."
Seeing that the old man was unmoved, Lin Yong just said something when he saw the sloppy old man looking up at him.
Just this look made Lin Yong shiver involuntarily, as if a basin of ice water had been poured on his head, freezing him from head to toe, and he couldn't say what he wanted to say no matter what.
The old man looked at him and asked again: "Where can I buy this?"
Lin Yong subconsciously said: "No, it's not for sale..."
The sloppy old man frowned, and at this moment, a figure walked out of the store.
Li Yi looked at Lin Yong and said, "If you finish eating, you can go over there and get it. I made a lot this time, and two people can't finish it."
The sloppy old man raised his head and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar young man walking out of the shop, his nose suddenly felt a little sore.
He was poisoned by strange poisons, traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers, and slept in the open and wind. He went through countless hardships and dangers before he got here step by step. But all these hardships finally disappeared at this moment.
Li Yi looked at the beggar's old eyes sparkling with sparkle, and sighed. Everyone has his own way of living. There are emperors who are at the top, and there are beggars who live at the bottom. Everyone has different worries. For the former,
What you may be thinking about all day long is how to conquer cities and stabilize the country, but for the latter, eating a piece of candy can make you cry with excitement, and being able to fill your stomach and survive is probably the only pursuit.
He took out a broken piece of silver and handed it over, saying, "Take it, go have something to eat."
The old man pushed his messy hair to both sides and said in a trembling voice: "It's me..."
Lin Yong froze on the spot, looked at Li Yi, and then at the old beggar, with a look of confusion on his face.
Li Yi's hand was in the air, and for a moment, he felt like he had won a big prize.
…
…
"I got this from home. It's Uncle Lin's clothes. Let's make do with it first." Lin Yong brought a piece of clothing over and said, "Brother Li, you have such an old servant in your family. Why have I never listened to you?"
Pass?"
Li Yi explained: "At that time, I met a bandit and accidentally got separated. It is really fate that we can meet again here."
"It's not easy." Lin Yong put down his clothes, looked at the sloppy old man over there who was washing his face, turned around and whispered: "I'm going to get something for him to eat. Just now, his eyes were green when I saw he was hungry.
All afraid..."
The Grandmaster is certainly terrifying. In this era, he can even be called a nuclear weapon-like existence.
Martial arts cultivation has already reached its peak. With its own momentum, it can make ordinary people and even masters collapse directly. Killing with one look is nothing.
The sloppy old man changed into clean clothes and scanned the yard. The two people he was looking for were there. He took a sip of wine and threw a piece of candy in his mouth. He felt that the heavy burden on his shoulders suddenly lifted.
Take it off...
The mission is accomplished, there is sugar and wine, life is at this point, what more do you want?
Li Yi sat aside, looked at him and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Someone invited me here, and asked me to bring you back unscathed." The sloppy old man looked at him and said, "You know, the most important thing for us people in the world is the word righteousness. Since I agreed,
Just do it..."
Li Yi thought for a while and then asked: "How is the situation in Shuzhou now?"
"They don't know that you have arrived in Qi State and have been searching for you. I heard that the King of Shu even offered a reward of ten thousand taels of silver and vowed to find you." The old man looked at him and asked: "You and the King of Shu
The friendship is very deep?"
Li Yi waved his hand: "A little bit..."
The old man said: "Then let's go back immediately. When we get to Shuzhou, we won't have to worry about the Taoist nun's power."
"Ahem..." Li Yi coughed twice and said, "Don't worry, you had a fight with that Taoist nun and you were injured, weren't you? Let's recuperate here first, and we can recuperate for a while before leaving."
If that idiot King of Shu had used his perseverance elsewhere, he would have become a prince long ago, and he would not have been sent to a place like Shuzhou where no one can shit.
After carefully weighing it, although there was one more injured Grandmaster, the Grandmaster could not kill thousands of people and kill ten thousand people. With the friendship between the King of Shu and him, if he wanted to pass through Shuzhou and return safely, it would still be better.
Somewhat difficult.
"My injury is not a problem. As long as I don't meet the Grandmaster, it will be fine." The sloppy old man clapped his hands and said, "You guys pack up first and set off early to avoid more troubles."
Li Yi stood up, looked at him and said: "You can recuperate as long as you can. What if your injury worsens? Your health is important. I'll find a place for you in the inn next to you. Let's stay here first. That's all.
deal!"
You can't be too selfish as a human being. It's not easy for the old man to travel thousands of miles. If you torture him just now when he has a chance to rest, if you do this, is he still a human being?
The sloppy old man looked at him walking out of the yard. The expression on his face was a little stunned. After a while, it turned a little complicated...
…
…
In Fanglin Garden, Lin Wanru put down her pen, looked at Li Yi and asked, "How do you plan to settle that old man?"
Li Yi said: "Let him stay in the inn next door first."
"It's not easy for the old man to follow you all the way here. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me." Lin Wanru nodded, looked up at him, and asked: "That foreign businessman..."
"We have reached an agreement with them." Li Yi smiled and said, "They are also in a hurry to spend money. They have a lot of jewelry brought from Jingguo. They can be provided to you directly. The price is easy to negotiate."
Lin Wanru thought for a moment and said, "If the jewelry is already formed, I'm afraid the price will not be low."
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this. I heard from these foreign businessmen that their former shopkeeper owed hundreds of thousands of taels of silver through gambling, prostitution, and ran away with his sister-in-law without even paying them wages.
Being forced to pay debts, they had no choice but to take these jewelry and other things around and sell them at low prices, eager to get rid of them. The original price was one thousand taels, but now you can buy them for three hundred taels, and the price is not too high. Even yours
Work costs are saved..."
"Really?" Lin Wanru raised her head and her beautiful eyes lit up.
"Really." Li Yi nodded.
If those goods were converted into silver, they would be inconvenient to carry, and the silver notes could only be exchanged in Qi. If they wanted to go back, these things would be a burden, so they simply gave her a favor.
