Cheng Xiaohao smiled: "Did you encounter any difficulties?" Tell me, maybe I can come up with an idea to help. ”

The child was unmoved, frowning: "If you don't plan to buy something, then please go out now." ”

"Buy, of course."

It seems that this time the idle business is out of control, but the drawing paper still has to be bought.

He pulled out a roll of white paper, patted the dust on it, and asked, "How much does this roll cost?" ”

The child thought for a moment and said, "Two hundred dollars." ”

Even if such a small roll is spread out, it is only less than two meters, and it actually costs two hundred yuan, and the copper plate on his body, although he has not counted it, is definitely not a hundred yuan, probably only a few dozen yuan.

Cheng Xiaohao: "Can it be cheaper?" ”

The child shook his head: "This is a very low price." ”

Cheng Xiaohao: "But you didn't know the price of the things in this basket before, right?" And you were in a hurry just now, so you must not have had time to ask the price of these things, did you? ”

Child: "That's true, but I know the paper you have in your hand, and I know the price of it." What you have in your hand is a mud gold and silver cloud wind Luo silk paper, don't look at its mediocre appearance, you can just open it and take a look. ”

After listening to the child's words, Cheng Xiaohao opened the paper in his hand a little.

When I opened it, I knew why the name of this roll of paper was gold and silver paper, and it turned out that this ordinary paper was mixed with gold and silver, which should be mixed with gold and silver powder.

"I don't want this, I'll take another volume."

This kind of bells and whistles of paper didn't feel suitable for his sketches.

He picked up another volume and asked, "What about this volume?" How much? ”

Child: "Three hundred and twenty wen." ”

"Why is it getting more and more expensive, you don't even need to look at it, do you know the price of the paper in my hand? Don't they all look the same? Could it be that there is any sign on it? Or do you have any immortal abilities that can see inside? Cheng Xiaohao looked at the outside of the rolls of paper again, although some were white and some were gray and light brown, but just now he got two rolls of white paper with the same appearance.

Hearing Cheng Xiaohao's words, the child's tense face couldn't help but stretch and smile: "I also hope that I have the ability of a fairy, but unfortunately I don't." And this bamboo basket in front of you was put here by my father last year's Dragon Boat Festival, and I was also on the side at that time. So, I didn't have any immortal abilities, I just remembered their location. ”

As he spoke, the smile on the child's face disappeared again, replaced by a sadness.

Is this because you want to find a listener? Cheng Xiaohao didn't mind being a tree hole once, so he answered: "Oh? And what about your father? Why don't you let a child watch the store when you're not in the store? ”

The child's face was sad: "My father is long gone. I—" He suddenly looked up, his face flustered, "why am I chatting with you here?" What exactly are you going to buy. The child's face turned to blame, and his eyes glared at Cheng Xiaohao angrily.

"Haha, this, I do want to buy it, but I don't have enough money." Cheng Xiaohao took out the money bag from his arms, poured it on the counter on the side, and sighed to the child: "Look, I have all this money." Actually, I'm a painter who came here from home by accident. I just sold a painting a few days ago, and I was making ends meet for a while, but now that the money is running out again, if I don't paint a few more paintings and sell them, I'm afraid I'll starve to death on the streets. ”

Listening to Cheng Xiaohao's words, the child's face was a little moved, he took out a roll of paper from the shelf on the side and handed it to Cheng Xiaohao: "I'll give you this roll of paper, it should be good to use it for painting." I hope you sell your paintings as soon as possible so that you can tide over this difficult time. ”

Cheng Xiaohao didn't answer: "How can this work, how much is this roll of paper?" I can't take your stuff for nothing. ”

Child: "Take it, it's actually only a hundred dollars." Food and accommodation in Lin'an City are not cheap, even if you live in a remote house and eat the cheapest meals, the little money you have on you may only be enough for a few days to eat and live. ”

Cheng Xiaohao said with a resolute face: "The gentleman is not subject to the food that comes from the mouth, I can't ask for it!" ”

The child was a little angry: "I can't eat, and I'm so pedantic!" If you don't want it, then you leave quickly, I'm going to close the door. ”

Uh-

That's giving up?

Don't persuade me for a while?

Cheng Xiaohao was a little caught off guard, but he still wanted paper. In other stores, I'm afraid there is no such cheap paper. Since you're here today, you can't go home empty-handed, right?

But I already said no, and now I suddenly regret it, isn't it a bit bad? Will his character as a high-minded and talented man collapse?

may have seen Cheng Xiaohao's embarrassment, the child directly stuffed the roll of paper into Cheng Xiaohao's arm, and then pushed the embarrassed Cheng Xiaohao out, and said as he walked: "You readers, you all read your brains badly, always adhere to some inexplicable principles, and you don't know how to be flexible." Okay, if you really don't want to go, it's good to wait until you make money and then come back to me. ”

If Cheng Xiaohao resists a little, this kid will definitely not be able to move himself, but since the child puts the steps in front of him like this, he can't say that he doesn't accept his kindness.

After pushing Cheng Xiaohao out, the child quickly closed the door, and then ran in the opposite direction from which Cheng Xiaohao came.

Estimating that the child had gone away, Cheng Xiaohao turned around and returned to the calligraphy and painting shop.

No, the more I think about it, the more curious I become.

He just wanted to know what secrets were inside.

Since you can't get in at the front door, you can only go to the back.

Cheng Xiaohao went around in a circle and went around in an alley to the back yard.

Looking at the height, it is definitely impossible to climb directly.

Looking around left and right, I found two sturdy logs, leaned them against the wall, and then kicked the wood to reach the top of the wall.

Jumping into the yard as lightly as possible, Cheng Xiaohao continued to tiptoe towards the room where the child came out with the basin. As he passed by the basin, he lifted the black cloth on it.

The basin was filled with blood!

Well, in fact, this was already in his guess.

Only, whose blood is this? Why is there so much blood? That's what he's curious about.

Continue creeping towards the room.

Finally came to the outside of the house.

Looking at the papier-mâché window paper, Cheng Xiaohao stretched out his sinful fingers.

Before he could start, a rough voice came from inside the house: "Is it Ah Dong?" ”

Cheng Xiaohao didn't answer, and his voice suddenly became shocked and angry: "If it's a thief, then please leave quickly, otherwise when I come out, I will definitely take you to see the official." ”
