Although Chen Nuo comforted Li Liyang and told him not to think too much, after returning home, he actually thought a lot.
Chen Nuo doesn't like to owe others favors. He had this mentality before traveling through time.
He knew that given this opportunity, this job would at best be the icing on the cake for him, and it might even bring him some inconvenience.
However, for Li Liyang, it was a timely help, he needed this job.
Having been with Li Liyang for two or three years, Chen Nuo understood his personality very well. Chen Nuo was not surprised that he could make such a decision.
Not only did Chen Nuo not want to admit his love, but he also wanted to help him once as a token of friendship.
Moreover, speaking of it, the losses caused by Chen Nuo were much greater than those caused by Li Liyang. How could he let the other party bear it?
After making up his mind, Chen Nuo picked a first-level low-grade spiritual grass that Li Liyang needed from his spiritual medicine garden, carefully wrapped it and placed it outside his residence.
Then, he walked directly outside the largest building in the elixir garden and asked to see the steward.
A servant took him to the steward's office.
"What's the matter with you?" The steward is an old, fat man. He is a relative of the Song family. He is very good at pleasing the Song family's grandmother, so he accepted this pretty good job.
.
Ever since the last time the manager tried to make a fuss out of a molehill and fire Chen Nuo but failed, he didn't have a good look when he saw Chen Nuo.
Chen Nuo didn't care about his sarcastic remarks and went straight to the point, saying, "I want to make a deal with you."
"Deal? What deal?" The steward was a little confused. He was about to scold Chen Nuo, but seeing his calm and composed appearance, he didn't have the confidence to say that he wanted to see what kind of medicine the other party was selling.
"I know you have been trying to get me out and bring your grandnephew in, but in this elixir garden, what you say is not very effective."
In this elixir garden, the most respected person is Master Lao Wang, an experienced elixir planter. He has a kind heart and is willing to support the younger generations, so he has won the respect of everyone.
Chen Nuo is not old, but he is not impetuous in his work, and he is diligent and studious. Master Wang often praises him in private. If Master Wang had not been dragged down by his family and vowed not to accept anyone as his apprentice, he would really want to accept Chen Nuo.
Be a closed disciple.
This time, it was Master Wang’s vigorous opposition that ruined the steward’s plot.
"I can quit now, but you need to do me a favor."
"Don't worry, this favor may not be possible for others. But for you, it is just a matter of opening your mouth."
"What's the matter?" The steward became more and more confused as he listened. There was something wrong with this guy. He seemed to be praising his skill!
"I planted two spiritual grasses, one of which was the Eight Breath Grass." Chen Nuo said calmly.
"What!" When the steward heard this, he jumped up from his chair and became furious.
This spiritual breath grass is not of high grade, but its importance cannot be overstated.
"You kid, you dare to stand here openly and negotiate terms with me. You must be crazy. Just with your words, I can not only kick you out directly, but also reward you with twenty big boards.
Feel what it's like to lie in bed for a month and not be able to move." After the steward calmed down, his heart was bubbling with joy, and the boy actually ran up to the gunwale himself.
Could it be that he thought that he was not kicked out last time, so this kid felt that he could do whatever he wanted!
When I think of this, the manager is itching with hatred. Today, I will deal with this stinky boy. Lao Wang, that stinky old man with half a foot in the coffin, will be more attractive to him in the future.
"I bet you don't dare to touch me. I'm here to negotiate terms with you today, and I'm here with sincerity." Chen Nuo was also a little frightened, but he couldn't panic. As long as he showed a trace of fear,
This old man won't let him go.
"Sincerity, what kind of sincerity do you have?" The steward squinted his eyes slightly, as if he wanted to see through Chen Nuo. What he hated most was that every time he talked to this kid, he couldn't always see into his heart through his expression. This kid was so special
It's facial paralysis.
"After I leave, the spiritual grass and rice I planted outside the spirit gathering array will all belong to you." The spirit planters are like hard-working bees. After they rest, they will not violate the rules.
Use some little hands and feet.
This part of the income, except for 30% of the income, which is distributed to the steward, is considered Ling Zhifu's.
"How much are those things worth? One eight-breed grass costs six spiritual stones." The manager is obsessed with money. If you negotiate a deal with him, if you don't let him get a good deal, you will win.
"I know they are not worth a few spiritual stones, but besides that, I will continue to keep a secret." In the second half, Chen Nuo deliberately lowered his voice, as if only two people could hear it.
"What secret?" The steward began to feel something was wrong. This guy was so serious every time, which was really annoying.
"I will keep the secret of the extra spirit breath grass in the elixir garden, not only the eight breath grass, but also the seven breath grass."
As soon as these words came out, the manager knew something was wrong. He had obviously done it very covertly, but he didn't want to be discovered.
"I don't understand what you are talking about." The steward began to deny it. How could he admit that he had done such a thing?
It turns out that the number of spiritual breath grasses in the elixir garden is limited, and any addition or loss of one plant must be included in the file. The Song family relied on this spiritual grass to occupy a place in Beizifang City.
Taking advantage of the convenience of managing the elixir garden, the steward secretly planted some Lingxi grass. Only a few people knew about this, but they did not expect that Chen Nuo happened to be one of them.
"Steward, I don't want to cause trouble. You also know who I am. If I don't want to do something, no matter how others threaten me, it will be useless. That's why you are so eager to kick me out."
"This matter may be big or small, but it's not a matter of your words. If it gets too big, I'll get twenty big blows, but do you think you can still hold your position?"
Chen Nuo analyzed the matter straightforwardly and thoroughly. He knew very well that the manager was greedy for money. If he were to be removed from this position, it would be more uncomfortable for him than to slap him twenty times.
The steward's eyes rolled. In fact, he already knew what he should do, but he was stubborn and refused to give in.
"If I find out that your Lingxi grass is not a bad one, the old and new debts will be settled together."
Chen Nuo walked out of the hall and met Li Liyang who came in a hurry. His eyes were red. As soon as he saw Chen Nuo, he knew that the matter was irreversible.
After half a stick of incense, news began to spread in the elixir garden that Chen Nuo had been fired for planting a bad elixir.
The steward sent people to check Chen Nuo's residence and belongings one by one, and finally only let him leave with some clothes and a spiritual silkworm that seemed to be almost lifeless.
When Ling Zhifu enters or exits the elixir garden, his whole body will be checked. There is absolutely no chance that the elixir can be taken out.
"Chen Nuo, you really think that this kind of spiritual silkworm can improve the quality of spiritual grass. How come you are so clever and you suddenly turned a corner and hit a tree!" The boy sent by the steward made fun of Chen Nuo.
After burning the incense, it was Chen Nuo's turn to say goodbye to the place where he had stayed for three years.
"Everyone, stay here. Chen Nuo will leave now." Chen Nuo hugged his fists at his friends who have been together for two or three years. After this goodbye, we don't know when we will meet again. Everyone has to worry about the future.
Go forward on the journey of immortality.
On the road, some friends took a turn, and some fell behind. In the end, there was often no one around.
"Chen Nuo."
Just when Chen Nuo was about to turn around and walk out of the elixir garden, a child's voice sounded from behind.
Chen Nuo looked back and saw a girl walking over with a trembling old man.
"Chen Nuo, you're leaving like this, don't you want to say goodbye to us?" The girl's hair covered half of her face. She originally looked sad, but when she saw Chen Nuo, there seemed to be stars in her eyes.
"Chen Nuo is ashamed of Master Wang." Chen Nuo made a long bow to the old man. The old man taught him many things, and he sincerely respected him. But the time for the two of them to part ways had arrived.
"Oh, I can't keep you here. That's all, that's all." The old man sighed. He knew that there were people here who couldn't tolerate Chen Nuo, but there was nothing he could do.
"Master Wang, please take care of yourself. Master Xiao Wang, please take care of yourself too." Chen Nuo was about to say goodbye to this kind old man, and his heart felt like a knife piercing his heart. As long as he walked out of this door, if he wanted to step in again,
It's easier said than done, and the two kings, old and young, live in seclusion, making it even harder for them to meet each other.
"You are finally willing to call me master, but why do you add the word "little king" in front of it?" The girl is only nine years old, and she still looks innocent. She usually likes to force Chen Nuo to call her master Wang, and she looks weird.
Endearing.
"Take it. Since you called me master, I can't help but express my gratitude. This is specially prepared for you." The girl directly threw a pamphlet to Chen Nuo, then covered her mouth and smiled secretly.
here we go again!
Chen Nuo smiled bitterly and had no choice but to accept it. In the past two years, Chen Nuo received seven or eight volumes of so-called gifts from her. When he opened it, he saw the mess inside, which made people laugh.
Perhaps, I may never receive it again in the future.
