"Shopkeeper, I'm ......" brought people back.

The man who went to deliver the letter was about to say these words in front of his shopkeeper, but he was suddenly stopped talking, and when he looked up, he saw that it was the old man.

I saw that the old man shook his head, looked at the guy, and said softly: "It's okay, I see that your shopkeeper seems to be too busy, and my old man doesn't have anything to do, just wait by the side for a while, you can do your own work, don't worry about me." ”

"Is this really possible?" The guy said with some uncertainty: "I'm too snub to you, old man." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just an old bone, what's there to be lazy or not, go do your own thing, go quickly!"

The old man beckoned one after another, and the guy looked at it a few times with some uneasiness, and then turned around and went to do his work.

Who knows, Si Si began to concentrate on doing things, and it took several hours to get sick, until he was so hungry that he cooed, then he stretched his waist and beat his sore hands and shoulders.

"I'm hungry, what time is it? Have you eaten? Do you want someone to bring food? Sisi said to the two guys.

"Shopkeeper, look at the one next to you first, the old man has been sitting for a long time."

The guy probably didn't expect that his shopkeeper didn't have anything at all, and he felt that someone next to him was staring at him, and there was nothing in his clothes, and he looked very calm.

"Huh? Elderly? ”

Si Si turned his head and saw an old man sitting on the left hand side not far from him, drinking tea and looking at him with a smile.

Hmm, why does this person look so familiar? Si Si couldn't help but look at the man several times, and then he remembered this patted his head.

"Oh, I remember, you're the big customer who came to my store last time and bought two catties of every seed in my store!"

It's no wonder that Si Si didn't recognize it for so long, but in fact, he didn't even recognize the guys!

It is no wonder that the last time the old man came, he was wearing a coarse linen coat and a hat, and he was followed by a black and strong young man, who looked like a peasant family.

But this time, when I saw this old man again, he was wearing an ink-colored gown, and he also had a crown of hair on his head, which looked a little more erudite.

And by the old man's side, it was no longer the black and strong young man from the last time, but a little scholar with a somewhat white and tender appearance.

"May I ask the old man, do you have something that you must talk to me about in person?" Si Si walked over and asked, "Is there some of the seeds from the last time that didn't grow or for some other reason, you have a question for me?" ”

But he never thought that the old man shook his head lightly after listening to what Si Si said, and said, "No, I didn't come here today for this." ”

Not for these?

Si Si looked at him with some confusion and said, "Then old man, you are here to ......"

"Shopkeeper, I have a question for you." The old man looked at Si Si with a pair of wise eyes, which made Si Si feel that his whole person had been seen through.

"But it doesn't hurt for you to say that." Si Si replied calmly: "If I know something that can be answered, I will definitely try my best to answer your questions." "16 Reading

The old man seemed to be very satisfied, and nodded his words, but Si Si didn't know how to answer.

"Shopkeeper, I want to ask, how do you know what those seeds are called, and how they are planted?"

"I know that you claimed to have seen it in an ancient book, and this ancient book has been lost, but you are old and talented, and you have read a lot, but you have never seen a book like this."

"And some of the seeds sold in your store are from overseas, although those foreigners in some places can let you take the seeds away, but they will never tell you how to plant and how to plant, the court has negotiated for a long time, but they have not been able to pry out the way of planting these seeds from their mouths."

"The old man is very curious, how do you, the shopkeeper who doesn't seem to have traveled much at a young age, know this?"

"Forehead ......"

Si Si had a thin layer of cold sweat on his back, and he knew how to answer.

How to say? Said that she came from another place, and she studied this major in college, so she knows everything she knows?

Just kidding, if you really say that, you'll be caught as a monster right away! Is it to die or not to die!

It's just that the old man in front of him, how can he answer?

The old man probably saw Si Si's difficulty, smiled very kindly, and said: "The shopkeeper doesn't need to worry, the old man is just curious, the shopkeeper can think about it carefully, and then decide whether to tell the old man." ”

Since the old man in front of him has already said so......

"I'm sorry, old man." Si Si smiled at him very apologetically, and said: "These things are all handed down from my ancestors in my family, and they can't be passed on to the outside world, and I can't tell you more, I can only tell you that I have really read that book, and I have read these things, but I can't mention anything else to you, otherwise, the ancestor will blame me." ”

"And I only take out these things for business, and I don't want to cause too much trouble, and I ask the old man to raise his noble hand, don't ask so much, no matter how many questions you ask, I can't answer you anything."

Don't say you can't answer, you can't even tell your origin!

Si Si roared in his heart, who is this old man in front of him? Hurry up and go home, sit here and drink tea, haven't you been bored after drinking all day?

The old man probably thought that Si Si would answer like this! Although he was smiling on his face, he didn't want to give up, but asked again: "Shopkeeper, do you know who I am?" ”

Uh-huh?

Si Si looked at the old man in front of him with a confused face, shook his head very honestly and said: "I don't know, I've only seen you for the second time, I heard the guy in the store say that you seem to be very big, I really don't know anything about it, may I ask the old man, who are you?" ”

"I'm Li Rongning."

The old man said very kindly: "You shouldn't have heard of my name, but it doesn't matter, I can tell you that I am Li Shangshu, the secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, who is in charge of farming and fields, and you are also a kind of person." ”

Li Rongning? Ministry of Agriculture?

Si Si looked at the old man in front of him with a confused expression, what did he do, how did he get the attention of such a big man?
