Chapter 24: The Mask of Human Skin
"The price is very reasonable, purple reishi is a rare thing, it is worth the price!"
It can be seen that the family is really simple. If it were someone else, it would only be a lack of money, and it would be a lot of money!
"Yes! Is purple reishi so valuable? Lu Laohan didn't think about it, if he found a few more, wouldn't he be rich!
"Dad, purple Lingzhi is hard to find, besides, Xiahou Yuan is not short of this money! When that purple lingzhi is in his hands, believe it or not, he can double it and sell it to others! ”
Such precious medicinal materials may not be bought with money, and those rich people are very willing to die. When it's really time for life, the family is willing to scatter all the wealth.
Xiahou Yuan raised his hand and patted his forehead, there are some things, I can't say anything! Saying it directly like this made him look like a profiteer. But seriously, if this thing is dedicated to his father, it is indispensable to ensure a bunch of rewards.
Not to mention, it's estimated to be more than double in value! Thinking about it this way, he did make a lot of money.
"Really?" Lu Laohan felt that it was already a sky-high price for a purple lingzhi to sell for 5,000 taels.
"Uncle, don't worry, this purple lingzhi is of great use to me, and I earned this money."
This is the truth, and he has to interrupt this topic quickly, and if he continues to talk about it, it will be against him.
"That's good, that's good! Allure, you have also seen it, our money is a few days for our family. But for Xiahou Gongzi, it is a small amount of money, Xiahou Gongzi is not short of money, even if he opens a restaurant, he can make a deal alone, how can you always invest! So you better not get involved. ”
The point is, how can there be a woman in business? If you don't have to show up every day, how will you find your in-laws in the future? This Xiahou Yuan doesn't know if it's reliable?
"Hmmm! Don't, uncle! I can't do without the girl in Allure when I open a restaurant! I'm rich, but I don't know anything about the dishes and stuff. Even if I can pay for a chef, the chef cooks the same dishes, and this new restaurant can't compete with the old restaurant, so I will definitely have to lose. With Allure's special dishes, I can attract more guests and make money. Uncle, you don't want to see me lose money. ”
Don't let the girl in Allure do business with him, where will he have the opportunity to hold the beauty!
"This ...... But after all, she is old, and she shows up all day long, which affects her marriage! ”
Women, it's more reliable to marry, teach husband and children, and live a plain life.
"Dad, don't I know how to disguise! When the time comes, do a good job of camouflage, and who will recognize me. ”
Her makeup skills are still very good, and when she collects the materials, she will ensure that no one will recognize the painting.
"Girl, you can see your disguise when you get closer. It's so unsafe, your face can't be easily exposed. Let's not think about that, obediently listen to Dad, Dad will find you a good family. Let's not toss those! This money is enough for us to have food and clothing. ”
Lu Laohan still hopes that his daughter will be honest, after all, money is not important to life. If she is a man, she is good, but if she is bad, she is born a woman.
"Daddy!" Why is this thinking so old-fashioned? It doesn't make sense!
"Uncle is understandably worried that Allure's appearance will cause unnecessary trouble. But Allure may not be happy, I can do a little help. ”
After Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, he took out a delicate small box from his sleeve. Several people looked at the box in Xiahou Yuan's hand, and they didn't know what he meant by taking out this box?
Xiahou Yuan didn't say anything, groped the edge of the box, and only heard the two sounds of "card and car", and the box automatically popped open.
I saw that there was something in the box that looked like a handkerchief, but it didn't look like it, and it felt a little fleshy.
Xiahou Yuan gently lifted him up, and Lu Qingcheng immediately exclaimed when he saw it: "Human skin mask!" ”
She never imagined that the legendary human skin mask was actually real! Xiahou Yuan actually has this thing in his hand!
“?” Several people looked at Lu Qingcheng at the same time, and their eyes were full of doubts.
"Allure girl is so knowledgeable!" Xiahou Yuan's face suddenly turned cold, he didn't want to believe that she had a problem.
But now it's really hard to convince herself, a girl in the mountains who has never been far away, recognizes the human skin mask at a glance, so how can he not doubt it!
finally met a woman he liked, but the other party was arranged by someone else, and Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but want to destroy her for a moment.
But in the end, I held back, and after all, I was still emotional, although it was not deep, but I also took it to heart.
"Girl! How do you know it's a human skin mask? "It can't be the same as in that book!
Lu Chengcheng looked at everyone's different faces, especially Xiahou Yuan's suddenly cold face, which made her look very uncomfortable.
This was the first time she had seen another expression on Xiahou Yuan's face, which was very strange and annoying.
Is he suspicious of her? What do you suspect of her? Did she hurt him, or did she do something sorry for him? It's just inexplicable!
Anyway, I'm not familiar with it, so it's good to doubt it, and it's a big deal not to get along. The most important thing for her now is how to explain to her father that this is her family, the person she should care about the most.
"Daddy, don't you know what I read in the book! And as I told you, I burned the book. ”
Books, books, can only continue to let you take the blame, she can't tell them, this is what she saw on TV! Believe it or not, she'll probably have to explain what a TV is again.
It takes a lot of panic to tell a lie, and she really doesn't want to be in a lie all the time. I have to think of a way to dispel the doubts of the father and son once and for all.
As for the others, what does it have to do with her? She didn't have to let people believe her.
"You said it, it's just a pity for that book!" What a good book, just burn it.
Xiahou Yuan was noncommittal, he could tell that Lu Qingcheng was lying. But the father and son believed her, and after she explained, he clearly saw a moment of relaxation between father and son.
But he couldn't, he wanted to believe her very much, but his past experience told Xiahou Yuan that his belief might be a catastrophe in exchange.
If it was just him, it would be fine, but he still has his mother and concubine, as well as relatives and friends. If she was really arranged by the enemy, how would he make a trade-off when the time came?
Or, while he is not very deep, it is better to get out as soon as possible. As for this human skin mask, it should be given to her as a parting gift.
Xiahou Jin finally left, he took all the mountain goods of their family, and left the human skin mask.
He said that these mountain goods were used as gold for human skin masks. But Lu Laohan insisted, he knew that the human skin mask was valuable, and how could it be worth the human skin mask with a little mountain goods?
In order to dispel the family's doubts, Xiahou Yuan received another 1,000 taels of silver from Lu Qingcheng. Although it was very painful, in order to act conveniently in the future, Lu Tingcheng still paid the money painfully.
