"It's a white radish!?"

Wang Lu's eyes widened and he looked at the contents of his bowl incredulously.

The chief rich second generation of Wangjia Village, the peerless macho man who cracked the twelve serial task chains in Lingxi Town, only had a boiled radish in white water for dinner!?

The suspicious gaze fell on the scholar: "Do you want to be so frugal!?" ”

Wang Zhong was very aggrieved: "Young master, you can't blame me, you can go out and see it yourself, the price of this inn is simply crazy, and a boiled radish in white water costs ten taels of silver!" ”

Wang Lu was stunned for a while: "Ten taels is ten taels, our rich second generation is not bad for money." ”

"The problem boss lady is still limited to purchase! One person is limited to one! ”

“…… Did you tell him that we were the guests of honor in the upper room? ”

Wang Zhong nodded very hard and angrily: "Yes, otherwise she would have offered five hundred taels of one!" ”

"Isn't that heavier than a turnip! Has the price of silver plummeted to this point lately? ”

Wang Zhong was indignant: "That proprietress has a good calculation, thinking that everyone is a fool!" Now the people in the lobby would rather go hungry than buy her turnips, not to mention that her family is not the only one in the town who sells food to eat! ”

"Then you still buy these ten taels of turnips? Do you really think we're not short of money? ”

Wang Zhong continued to humb: "The prices in other parts of the town have long been speculated, and now gold and silver are like Tu Kela, and ten taels of silver radish are already counted as the price of conscience." ”

Wang Lu frowned: "This conscience shouldn't be eaten...... I hate turnips the most. ”

Wang Zhong said angrily: "The young master doesn't eat, I eat, I'm still hungry." ”

Wang Lu ignored the scholar's complaints: "I want to eat meat." ”

"The radishes are all five hundred taels, and the meat is afraid that it costs five thousand taels a plate, but the silver on us is enough to buy half a plate."

"That's ......" Wang Lu pondered for a moment, looked down at the radish in the bowl, and suddenly asked, "Can the store sell this radish in the store?" ”

Wang Zhong shrugged: "Of course you can't sell it, a fool will buy it." ”

"In this case, our dinner has been settled...... Wang Lu's eyes lit up, his fingers couldn't help but knock on the table, and his expression became more and more excited.

"Young Master?" Wang Zhong tilted his head, puzzled.

"Hmph, there's probably meat to eat tonight."

After speaking, Wang Lu grabbed his bags and got up to go out.

——

In the lobby on the first floor, the proprietress behind the counter looked impatient.

More than 100 white radishes were boiled in hot water in the kitchen, and now not even a single one has been sold—except for the one that was sold at a cheap price. Although the princes and nobles in the inn are waste wood, they are not stupid, and even if the family has hundreds of millions of dollars, no one buys her conscience radish.

From the cost point of view, the loss of the pot of radishes in the back kitchen is minimal, but the face of the proprietress of her inn can't afford to hurt, and more importantly, a certain bet is afraid that she will lose.

"Alas...... It's annoying! ”

The proprietress stretched her waist and scanned the lobby through her squinted eyes.

Tsk, the big head from the Canglan country is not there! Otherwise, you can sell him to buy dozens of ......

Just as he was considering whether to sell violently to the princelings in the lobby, a sound of footsteps came down the stairs from the upper floor.

The arrival made the proprietress's eyes shine, and Wang Lu, who had cracked the chain of twelve consecutive tasks, came again.

Seeing him, the proprietress couldn't help but want to laugh, especially remembering that someone's swear that the task chain that could not be cracked was broken by him himself, and the proprietress couldn't help but laugh and endure a stomachache.

Looking at Wang Lu's appearance, he probably had a plan to go downstairs, but unfortunately there was no task chain here.

"Boss, I'll buy turnips."

The proprietress smiled: "The special price is only once." ”

"It's okay, buy it at the original price."

Do you buy it at the original price? The proprietress smiled a little: "How much?" ”

"Let's start with five, let's get bigger."

"It's a little bigger, it's more expensive."

"It's okay, it's not bad money."

"Okay, three thousand five hundred taels, pay first."

Wang Lu didn't say a word, and threw all his belongings, more than a dozen silver tickets of the Daming Kingdom of Cangxi Prefecture, on the counter.

The proprietress waved her hand at Wang Lu: "I'll send it to you later, please go back." ”

Wang Lu didn't procrastinate, turned around and went upstairs. The proprietress then took the pile of silver tickets and counted them slowly.

It's really an interesting person, no wonder he can crack the chain of twelve consecutive quests, his idea is completely different from the group of empty waste wood with noble origins in the lobby. Someone who was considered a heretic in the mountains could probably find the same kind.

The proprietress counted the money unhurriedly, and when she counted the last one, there were already a few more people in front of the counter.

They are all the servants or personal soldiers of the young masters, and they are all smiling, but they are smiling very unnaturally.

"Boss, I'm here to buy ......"

"Lady, your turnips ...... here"

"My young master wants to ......"

The proprietress didn't raise her head: "One thousand taels and one, how much do you want?" ”

The servants were taken aback: "Not five hundred taels? ”

"The price has risen, love to buy it or not."

The servants turned back to their masters in embarrassment, but all received positive answers.

If it is simply blackmailed, it is a waste to spend an extra penny, but if it can be exchanged for a trace of immortality, tens of millions of taels of silver are just idle. Now it seems that the ridiculous price set by this strange inn has its own reason, like the unbelievable chain of quests at the town's gates.

In Lingxi Town, there are opportunities everywhere, and the princelings in the lobby were hesitant to wait and see, but when they saw someone taking the lead, they naturally followed in a swarm.

Even the mountain horseman can take out a few thousand taels of silver, and the others can naturally take more.

"Then ...... Buy two first? ”

"I want five!"

"I want ten!"

"Damn, my young master has chartered the venue!"

The proprietress quickly piled up silver tickets from various countries at the counter, not to mention the hundred radishes boiling in the back kitchen, and even the next few pots were fully booked. There are not many other princes and nobles in these groups, but there is a lot of money, so much that the proprietress can be soft on some money.

It is naturally a happy event for a businessman to make a lot of money, and the proprietress counted thousands of earnings, facing a group of customers with nearly unlimited spending power, but the smile on her face was far less sincere than before.

"Alas, what a bunch of idiots."

This time, she spoke out very blatantly.

——

Midnight.

With the breeze outside the window, the slight gurgling sound is particularly eye-catching.

"Master, are you hungry?"

At one end of the room, Wang Zhong spoke softly. At the other end, the young master snorted angrily: "I'm not hungry." ”

“…… Young master, I haven't moved half of the radish left, if you're hungry......"

"I'd rather starve to death than eat turnips"

"Young master, people are iron rice and steel ......"

"Since you care about me so much, go outside and dig some wild vegetables, and hunt wild boars."

"How is it possible!?"

"Then shut up."

After Wang Lu finished speaking, he turned over and stopped talking. The scholar stopped talking, but he was also silent.

There are some things that I can't say.

The young master was full of ambition to bet on all his belongings, and now it seems that he has not gotten the desired result - not to mention what kind of chicken, duck and fish meat, even the five boiled radishes that should have been sent are gone.

For the young master who is arrogant and has never been frustrated, this novel experience is probably not pleasant, but ...... After all, he is not an immortal figure of the Flying Immortal Imperial Sword, and setbacks in life are inevitable.

The scholar shrugged his shoulders slightly on the bed, thinking that it would not be a bad thing to let the young master learn some lessons, otherwise he really thought that he was some kind of heavenly spirit root, different from mortal beings.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

The moment Wang Zhong was stunned, the young master had already gotten up and got out of bed.

When she opened the door, the pretty and delicate face of the proprietress was just outside the door, and then, with two small hands padding with towels, she was carrying a food box that was too big to talk about.

Standing in front of the door, Wang Lu smiled and said, "Boss, you're finally here." ”

The proprietress replied with the same tacit smile: "It's really a pleasure to wait for a long time...... But it can't be helped, those stupid people ordered a whole hundred pots of turnips, and they just finished cooking them, so ...... Your dinner can only be delayed a little. ”

As she spoke, the proprietress had already strode into the room and put the heavy food box on the table, the food box was not opened, but a rich smell of meat that made the index cramps came to her face.

Wang Lu couldn't wait to open the food box, the candlelight in the room was dim, but the little bit of oil was dazzling.

Wang Lu wiped his saliva and exclaimed: "The proprietress is really a believer...... He is also a believer in good craftsmanship. ”

The proprietress clapped her hands: "You helped me earn tens of millions of taels, what is this farm craft?" ”

Although the food box is large, the meals inside are also very ordinary, braised pork, pork stewed vermicelli, mushu pork, chicken wings......

But at this moment, even if you have a net worth of tens of millions, you can't exchange this box of farm crafts.

Wang Lu brought the food in the sea bowl to the table one by one, and beckoned the scholar to share the food together, both of them were physically growing, and their combat effectiveness was quite amazing, and it didn't take long to solve one-third of the food in the food box.

Wang Lu put down the dishes and chopsticks, although his stomach was uncomfortable, he was comfortable: "Boss, take the rest back, don't waste it." ”

The proprietress moved her eyebrows: "What are you talking about, this is your food for the next week, I think you guys are wasting so much overeating just now." ”

“…… What week? ”

The proprietress explained as a matter of course: "There are still six days before the Immortal Ascension Conference, but you shouldn't have any money on you, right?" If you don't have to eat a little, you can only drink the northwest wind in the last few days. ”

Wang Lu was stunned for a long time before he asked incredulously, "What do you mean, boss?" Shouldn't you be the one who will take care of all our food and lodging? ”

"Ha Luha, how is it possible, you think too much."

“…… Even if you don't care about the money I helped you make, at least I actually made three thousand five hundred taels just now, there must be nothing wrong with that, right? ”

The proprietress sneered: "At this price in the town now, can you buy this box of meals for three thousand five hundred taels?" Complain less, save some food, the rest of the meal is enough for you to eat for six days, think that those fools spent tens of thousands of taels of silver and can't even eat enough turnips, at least you can eat meat until the last day. ”

“……”

The proprietress suddenly remembered something: "Oh yes, if you calculate carefully, you do have a surplus of money for me, so I'll find it for you." ”

After a while, the proprietress said goodbye and left, and looking at a worn copper plate left on the table, Wang Lu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
