Chapter 546: Merchant
When I arrived at the patriarch's house, there were several elders who looked older next to the patriarch who were already sitting there.
"Patriarch, you look for us." After Xiaomeng greeted the patriarch, she went straight to the point.
"Little girl, you're here, just in time, introduce someone to you to get to know each other." The patriarch motioned for Xiao Meng and the two to sit down, and looked at the few people sitting on the side: "These three are businessmen from Rennan City, businessmen who specialize in the business of medicinal materials, I heard that the little girl's tea mountain intends to give up, and they want to buy the tea mountain in the little girl's hand." ”
Nancheng, the capital of southern Xinjiang.
The three of them nodded at Xiao Meng.
Xiaomeng returned the salute.
"Little girl, I came back yesterday and discussed it with several other elders in the clan, and everyone agreed that I can't want to keep you, and I'm very sorry for this matter." Ulla had an apologetic look on her face.
Because something like that happened sixteen years ago, everyone has a certain hostility towards outsiders.
This kind of hostility is not only against Xiaomeng and his party, but also against all outsiders.
"Because of this, I contacted them to see if they were interested in taking over your tea mountain, if they were willing to take over, your loss would not be too great." These pharmacists have been going back and forth between the major tribes, and they are also locals in southern Xinjiang, so everyone is already familiar with them, so naturally there is no hostility.
Xiaomeng is different, they are pure foreigners, and they still come with a purpose, so it is difficult for the clan to accept them.
As soon as Xiaomeng heard the other party's words, she knew that Ulla didn't want to keep them anymore.
However, she was reluctant to let her sell the tea mountain.
"Patriarch, I won't sell the tea mountain, I see that everyone here doesn't have much land, otherwise, just divide it according to the area, the young tea seedlings have been planted, as long as the management is good, new tea can be harvested in a few months, and if the tea sells well, it can also be sold for some money." Let her sell it, Xiaomeng is unwilling.
To be honest, she is quite optimistic about several tea mountains.
She divided the tea mountains, the ultimate rights of these tea mountains are still in her hands, as long as she wants to collect the tea, these people will definitely give priority to selling to them, and the worst way is to take it back.
Ula didn't expect Xiaomeng to say this.
In his opinion, this is a ready-made deal, and there is no reason for the other party not to agree.
"Little girl, if you don't like the price, we can talk." One of the three people opposite spoke.
He had a small beard on his face and a gray turban wrapped around his head, dressed like a standard southern Xinjiang merchant.
Xiao Meng smiled: "It's not about the price, it's that I like it here, and I hope to come back here one day." ”
Of course, this is a prevarication, and it is difficult to say whether she will come back or not, at least for now, she doesn't want to leave.
"Even if the other party doesn't want to sell it, then we won't say much, patriarch, we'll come back in a few days." The three of them stood up and gestured to leave.
Because they are in the medicinal herb business, they may have dealt with medicinal herbs for a long time, and when you stand beside them, you can smell a faint medicinal fragrance emanating from them.
Xiao Meng's nose moved, and she also stood up: "The three of you are in the medicinal herb business?" ”
"Yes, the girl is selling medicinal herbs?" One of them stopped.
Xiao Meng shook her head: "That's not true, I just want to ask the three of you if you have heard of a medicinal herb called fantasy grass, if the three of you have it, I am willing to buy it from the three of you at a high price." ”
"What kind of herb is that?" For this strange herb, the three of them were stunned, obviously not having heard of it.
"I heard that it is helpful to summon the Gu worms in the body, I have only heard it once, and I don't know if it is useful, the three of them have been out on the road for many years, if you meet them, I hope you can help me pay attention to them, I thank you in advance."
There is no such thing as fantasy grass in the world, but she made it up.
The reason why she said this was because she felt that there was something wrong with the identities of these three pharmacists.
As for what's wrong, try it to find out.
"I seem to have heard of this thing, and I seem to have taken it back a little before, I'll go back and see, and if there is, I'll have someone send it to the girl." The man in the lead thought for a moment and spoke.
"Thank you a few more then." Xiaomeng nodded.
The three pharmacists left the patriarch's house, leaving only Xiaomeng and Su Yuzhe.
Seeing the young couple, the patriarch sighed: "Don't blame them, girls, they are also afraid, besides, what happened back then was indeed caused by a young foreigner couple, so I can't help this matter." ”
Xiao Meng smiled: "The patriarch has the patriarch's embarrassment, we won't blame, patriarch, I have an uninvited invitation, I don't know if the patriarch can agree." ”
"You say, as long as it's not too difficult and I have the ability to do it, I'll promise you." In just a few days, the little girl saved his people twice, and he couldn't drive them out openly.
"I would like to ask, does the patriarch still have an influence on the young couple sixteen years ago? It would be better if there was a portrait or something, and what happened here sixteen years ago, the patriarch will also inform us if it is convenient. ”
The patriarch's gaze at them suddenly became fierce: "Who are you?" Why ask about these? ”
"Don't get me wrong, patriarch, we have no ill will."
"So what are you asking about this?" What happened sixteen years ago was basically a taboo thing for them, and he wouldn't mention it to anyone unless he had to.
Xiao Meng took out his longevity lock, explained his life experience to him, and explained the reason for his appearance here to the patriarch.
When the patriarch heard this, he was shocked in his heart.
"I'll tell you the truth, after what happened, the bodies of the twenty dead people were nowhere to be found, because they couldn't be found, and it seems to us that someone stole their bodies, or they had been destroyed, and after that incident, the young couple were gone, and we have reason to suspect that they did it." The patriarch let out a long breath.
After all these years of this incident, maybe it's time to turn it over and give justice to those twenty people.
"Patriarch, have you ever thought that there will be someone else behind this matter?"
"Don't quite understand what the little girl means?" The patriarch's thick eyebrows were thickly twisted.
"Maybe a couple was taken advantage of."
"Yes, I heard that there is a kind of Gu poison cultivation that requires the use of a large number of men's essence, maybe someone wants to cultivate a large number of Ten Thousand Gu Kings, so in the name of a foreigner, he killed so many people, and then blamed these things on the stranger." Su Yuzhe opened his mouth lightly.
