108 In distress

Colorful black?

Qian Hao shook his head, "What color is this?" I really can't imagine that even if it's black, why can it still be colorful? ”

He smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Miss Lin isn't playing tricks on me, is she?" ”

"What do you think?" Lin Meiyi asked him rhetorically.

Qian Hao was speechless, he couldn't reply.

But I don't know what's going on, he always feels that this girl is very mysterious, and this mystery attracts him to explore, and he can't stop.

"Good!" Qian Hao slapped the table, gritted his teeth and let go, "Then it's decided!" ”

He wanted to see what the colorful black looked like.

However, looking at the expression of this little girl, it is estimated that he will not be prepared in colorful black until the end of the year.

Fortunately, his endurance cultivation is not bad, just wait, now he can win the gradient dyeing technique, he already feels satisfied, and the colorful black is purely an unexpected gain.

Qian Hao is refreshing, Lin Meiyi is also refreshing, waiting for the little girl to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the two of them pick up the pen and write at the same time, Qian Hao has some contracts, and Lin Meiyi writes the formula.

Qian Hao was surprised when he saw that she could still write, and he got up slightly to look at it, well, this handwriting is not the same as he imagined.

It's not that the writing is ugly, it's just that he always thinks that the words written by such a mysterious girl should also be dragon flying and phoenix dancing, with its own artistic conception.

Sensing that Qian Hao was reading his own words, Lin Meiyi raised her head to look at him and reminded: "Boss Qian, hurry up and write, it's not too early, I'm still in a hurry to go back." ”

When Qian Hao heard this, he nodded awkwardly, withdrew his gaze, and wrote down the exchange contract on the paper with a pen and a phoenix.

He left Lin Meiyi with one percent of cotton and one percent of silkworm cocoons every year, and bought the gradient dyeing technology in Lin Meiyi's hands for one thousand taels of silver, plus the exclusive right to book an additional special dyed fabric every year.

Finally, there is another point, Lin Meiyi cannot sell the dyeing gradient technology to others within 20 years, otherwise she will have to compensate the Qian family dyeing workshop for all losses.

This article was added by Qian Hao himself later, of course, he also dared to hand it to Lin Meiyi, he felt that Lin Meiyi could understand and would not care.

In fact, he also guessed correctly, Lin Meiyi is really not interested in these, maybe this is not a loss for her, because she doesn't need to make money by dyeing technology at all, but he just happens to have what she needs now, so she is willing to take out something that is not important to her in exchange.

A transaction, from the beginning of the conversation about the silver and goods, a total of less than an hour, Qian Hao carefully recalled the first half of his life, and found that this was actually the shortest business he talked about.

Before Lin Meiyi left, Qian Hao was still sighing, if only every business could have this efficiency.

The master and apprentice only left after eating the simple meal prepared by Mrs. Qian, the sun had set in the west, and it would sink in the air for a maximum of an hour, and Mrs. Qian was worried that it was not safe for the two women to walk at night, so she specially prepared two torches for the two.

If Lin Meiyi hadn't resolutely refused, she would have sent two family members to escort them back.

Mrs. Xiao felt that Mrs. Qian was a little too kind, but Lin Meiyi looked at the goodwill 1 on the top of Mrs. Qian's head, and smiled silently.

When I passed through the county seat of Luxian County and drove into the official road to Gushan Village, it was completely dark, and I couldn't see my fingers.

The ox cart with torches can only illuminate the road within two meters of the surroundings, Xiao Niangzi kept shouting to slow down, but Lin Meiyi's speed of driving did not decrease at all, as if her eyes could see at night, and she could just avoid a small pebble on the road.

The ox cart was also carrying cotton and silkworm cocoons that had just come from the Qian family, forty or fifty catties, plus the weight of two people, and the ox, which had been running all day, was a little tired, and when he saw that he was about to get home, the ox stopped, panting and refusing to go.

Xiao Niangzi got out of the car to come and see, and when she saw Lin Meiyi sighing at the big yellow cow, she couldn't help laughing, "I told you to slow down, but you didn't listen, look, the cow has made you tired." ”

"In that case, let's take a break, let's have a drink." Lin Meiyi was free and easy, grabbed the forage and put it under the cow, and gave up half a pot of water to feed it, and then sat on the roadside stones with the master, drinking water and resting.

This place is not far from the mountain village, Lin Meiyi never thought that she would encounter anything here, after all, she walked back and forth on this road no less than ten times, never in danger, subconsciously felt safe, and the master and apprentice even had the leisure to enjoy the shining stars in the night sky.

So, when a group of people wearing black scarves rushed down from the hillsides on both sides to surround the master and apprentice, Lin Meiyi couldn't hold back at all, and let out a surprised "huh".

Ten shiny big knives were drawn out, and under the light of the fire, people were almost blind, Xiao Niangzi squinted to avoid the light, and when she opened her eyes again, she found that she and Lin Meiyi had an extra sharp knife on their necks, and the kettle in her hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the water flowed all over the ground.

"What are you going to do?" Xiao Niangzi tried her best to stay calm, but the first time she encountered this threat of life and death, all she thought about was her young son and her stepdaughter who had not yet had time to marry, and she couldn't help but panic for a while, and her body couldn't help but tremble a little.

Seeing this, the masked man standing beside her sneered and threatened: "If you want to live, be obedient, honestly hand over all your money, our boss can consider letting you die!" ”

Mrs. Xiao hurriedly looked at Lin Meiyi, thinking that she was a little girl who was already scared, but she didn't expect that this girl was so bold that she actually turned around and smiled at her.

The masked man who held Lin Meiyi hostage with a knife also saw her smile, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he felt that his authority was being provoked, so he directly pressed the knife down by half an inch, and said coldly:

"If you dare to mess around, I will kill you now!"

Lin Meiyi suddenly raised her head, her dark eyes looked at him fixedly, the corners of her mouth curled, not only did she not retract, but her smile became even bigger.

The person in front of her seemed to be the leader of this group of people, seeing Lin Meiyi's repeated provocations, she suddenly clenched the handle of the knife, wanting her to see some blood to know how powerful they were, but before he could make a move, one of his subordinates ran up.

He lowered his voice and said, "Head, except for the alien slaves, the ox carts of all the ages are right, and there are cotton and silkworm cocoons on the cart, it shouldn't be wrong." ”

Hearing this, the leader nodded, waved his hand and motioned for the rest of his subordinates to bring the ox cart with him, and then turned his head to look at Lin Meiyi.

"I'm sorry little girl, take people's money and people to eliminate disasters, you have to come with us."

As he spoke, he nodded at the two subordinates and motioned for the two to come forward and tie them up.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao was anxious, and hurriedly shouted: "Isn't it just money?" You take it all, and what are you going to do with it! ”
