Chapter 100: Satisfied
When he came out of Taoyuan Pavilion, the priceless sword that Cheng Sanguang was carrying when he came in his hand was gone, replaced by a large watermelon of more than ten catties, which was held in his arms, and followed Cheng Boyu's ass with a depressed face.
"Young master, ten pounds of watermelons, when his watermelons are made of gold?"
"Aren't we too much to give Tang Xiu's face? Who does he think he is, he has slandered people to our Lu Guogong Mansion, he is so bold! ”
Turning around and scolding Taoyuan Pavilion for a sentence or two, Cheng Sanguang looked at their young master quite unwillingly, and complained with a little hatred: "And you, young master, a watermelon of one hundred and fifty yuan, you don't even think about it, you can take one bite, even if you really want it, you have to bargain with him?" ”
"Now it's fine." Cheng Sanguang pouted with a look of disgrace: "Not to mention stealing the master's sword, I also bought such an outrageously expensive watermelon with the young master's temperament, and the master may not know how to greet me when I go back." Last time, the young master was frustrated in the Tang Mansion, but the villain also followed him to lie in bed for more than a month, and his ass was beaten, this time, not only lost people but also lost money, and it was even more powerful than the last time! ”
"Don't worry, kid." Cheng Boyu was in a good mood, hugged Cheng Sanguang's neck, and hooked his shoulders like a brother, "Have you ever seen Young Master Ben do a loss-making business?" Their Tang family's watermelon is worth this price, take this watermelon back, not only will the old man not blame, maybe he can also reward you with a few dollars to ask for a daughter-in-law! ”
Ten pounds of watermelons are indeed very expensive, people who don't know, just like Cheng Sanguang is now startled, it's normal for Cheng Sanguang to be taken aback, ten pounds of money is enough for a family of three for half a year's living expenses, just look at those watermelons in the melon field in Tangfu, any one of them has ten pounds up, who would be willing to take a hundred or even more money to buy a watermelon back?
If he didn't know the other effects of this watermelon, just to satisfy his appetite, Cheng Boyu would definitely not have accepted it so extravagantly without a trace of hesitation.
Ordinary people who are not martial artists will never be able to understand the true value of the watermelon in the Tang Mansion, for the real martial artists, this can smoothly improve their own cultivation of the treasure, not to mention ten yuan a catty, even ten yuan a tael, there will definitely be people scrambling to buy one back!
The watermelon he ate last night, after a night of meditation and refining, the total amount of internal qi that grew was enough to withstand Cheng Boyu's penance for nearly a month, if he could eat a few bites of such watermelon every day, it would not take him two years to rush his cultivation to the peak of Ming Jin in one fell swoop, reaching the same level as his Lao Tzu.
At the peak of Ming Jin, Cheng Chuliang practiced for a full thirty years to barely reach the level, if Cheng Boyu could reach it in only two years, the old man's face would definitely be very exciting.
Thinking about this, Cheng Boyu was a little inexplicably excited in his heart, and even thought that when his cultivation arrived, would he also beat up the old man to avenge the new and old hatreds that had been abused for more than ten years?
Cheng Sanguang looked at Cheng Boyu who was close in front of him suspiciously, and thought to himself, what is the young master smiling at? It can't be that Tang Xiu was stupid, otherwise why would they start talking nonsense?
How could a man who was so slamming on the door give a reward of a few dollars, especially after stealing his sword and suffering a big loss?
"Young master, are you alright?" Seeing that Cheng Boyu was still smirking intoxicated, and even laughed out loud at this time, Cheng Sanguang whispered worriedly, and reached out to probe Cheng Boyu's forehead, didn't it burn?
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Cheng Boyu came back to his senses from the happy reverie, the lewd expression on his face was somewhat restrained, he waved his hand at Cheng Sanguang, and strode straight towards the 'Qingling Garden'.
"Is it really okay? How could you buy such an expensive watermelon if you are normal, and if you have nothing to do, will you be stupid and happy like you have hit an evil spirit? ”
Cheng Sanguang looked suspicious, but he still followed quickly with a watermelon.
Tang House.
After sending Cheng Boyu's master and servant out of the mansion, Tang Panshi looked at their young master with a worried face, and said softly: "Young master, will this offend the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion?" Although Grandpa Cheng is not in tune, no matter how he comes to visit the young master on behalf of the Cheng Mansion, you can give him two watermelons directly, why do you want him 250 yuan, if you go back and let Cheng Dadu know about it, will it ......?"
Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials, and Tang Panshi didn't want their young master to get in again as soon as he came out of the cell.
According to Tang Panshi's idea, isn't it just a watermelon, anyway, there are still many in the melon field, so what if you give them one or two, why do you have to make things so meritorious?
"Uncle Shi is too worried." Tang Xiu shook his head lightly, and explained to Tang Panshi disapprovingly: "First of all, the watermelons in our house are worth this price, didn't you see that little grandfather even saved the bargaining process, so he just responded directly?" This shows that in his heart, the price I set is not too high, at least it is within his affordability, even if Governor Cheng knows it, he should not blame it. ”
Cheng Boyu came over early this morning, and he knew that it was for the watermelons in their Tang Mansion without asking, and now Tang Xiu took the initiative to send the watermelons out, even if he received some money, the Cheng family's father and son should be more excited and happy to get what they wanted, how could they be angry and blame again?
"The second thing is, this head can't be opened." Tang Xiu said to Tang Panshi: "You have also seen the thickness of Cheng Boyu's face today, believe it or not, if you have this beginning, this little grandfather can come to our house three times a day!" ”
"Huh?"
Tang Panshi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded thoughtfully, just looking at Cheng Boyu's murderous appearance when he ate watermelon, he was afraid that he could really do this kind of thing.
The last time he sneaked into the Tang Mansion, why didn't he see that this little grandfather still had such a talent for a two-skinned face?
"People, regardless of whether they are high or low, have a stinky problem, that is, things that are too easy to get will not be cherished too much. If we give them watermelons for free from the beginning, they will only get used to it and will only take it for granted, and they will not accept too much favor from you at all. If you don't deliver it one day, they will blame you in turn. ”
Tang Panshi nodded lightly, "It seems that this is really the case......"
"On the contrary," Tang Xiu said, "if we ask for a high price that is enough to make them feel distressed from the beginning, and if we give them some free of charge from time to time in the future, do you think they will be more grateful?" ”
"That's it!" Tang Panshi's eyes lit up, and there was a feeling of sudden enlightenment in his heart, "It seems that the old slave is really old, and he can't even think through such a simple truth, or the young master's thinking is more thorough." ”
