"Le Lao, I'm going to leave today."

Li Xiao didn't look back, and wanted to withdraw directly.

Seeing that Li Xiao was really angry, he got up and left.

The shopkeeper of Tongrentang, Le Lao, realized that he was presumptuous.

"Xiao Gongzi, stay."

Le Lao hurriedly chased after him, and apologized: "I was presumptuous just now, but I didn't expect that Xiao Gongzi was more affectionate than Jin Jian for that Ningyun girl, so he was more offended." ”

Li Xiao nodded, indicating that the matter was over.

The old man smiled apologetically: "One yard is one yard, this couplet wants to thank Gongzi in person, or I still want it."

As he spoke, he pulled out the silver ticket from his sleeve.

In fact, Old Man Le is also a little scheming.

The other two pharmacies have also coveted this couplet for a long time.

On that day, he did say that he would reward a hundred taels of silver and find a couplet, and he gave an extra hundred taels.

But it didn't clearly state the ownership of the couplet, after all, the lantern festival was just a competition.

In case other shopkeepers find Li Xiao, they will have to buy it with a lot of money.

It is also possible to repent!

That's not possible, I'm going to make a decision on this pair!

Therefore, he would like to thank him in person.

Given this thing, it's foolproof.

Li Xiao saw that the other party was about to take out the silver ticket, and hurriedly pushed it back politely: "How embarrassing is this?"

"This is the old man's heart, you can accept it."

Old man Le stuffed the silver ticket into Li Xiao's arms again.

However, Li Xiao still pushed it back and said, "No, no, talking about money hurts feelings." ”

"You must continue, don't be polite to the old man, a pair that can be passed down for thousands of years, this is a great grace!"

The old man pushed back again.

The ancients gave gifts, paying attention to three pushes and three concessions.

Li Xiao pushed back again, pretending to frown and think for a while, and then said:

"Forget the silver, since we hit it off at first sight, or I'll pick up some medicinal materials in your shop, it really hurts my feelings to talk about money."

Seeing that Li Xiao didn't seem to be talking casually, Le Lao had no choice but to take back the silver ticket, and said with a smile: "Childe is so polite, it's better to be respectful, you come with me to show you good things." ”

As he spoke, Le Lao led Li Xiao into a small room.

Generally in a small room, it must be a good product.

The room has elaborate wooden shelves on which boxes of wooden boxes are placed.

The old man picked up a box and opened it.

"Xiao Gongzi, you see, this is a wild ginseng with four hundred and fifty years of ingredients, but it is a great tonic. It can prolong life."

Le Lao just introduced half of it.

Li Xiao picked up the box and looked at it, then closed the box, clamped it under his armpit and said, "This ginseng is good, oh, I'm so embarrassed"

He said in his heart, this thing must have face as a dowry.

Wild ginseng worth 400 taels!

Le Lao twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Childe has a good eye." ”

"What is this?"

At this time, Li Xiao picked up a box at random, opened it and saw that there was a medicinal herb like a white lotus flower inside.

"This is a two-hundred-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus, top-grade."

Le Lao twitched the corners of his mouth again.

Because he found that Li Xiao had closed the box, and put it under his armpit and said: "The name is very good, not bad, not bad, you are so polite"

"It's okay, it's okay, haha"

Le Lao stiffened his head and responded to the road.

At this time, Li Xiao had already opened the third box and said: "I know this, He Shouwu, it's not very valuable." ”

Since it is not worth much, Li Xiao is in the pocket again.

Le Lao's brain was already sweating, and he hurriedly explained: "Wrong, this is a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu, and its value is no worse than that person." ”

"It's deer antler velvet, right? I heard that it is very replenishing and can invigorate the blood."

"We don't understand, it should be good to take it back to make wine and drink."

When Old Man Le explained, Li Xiao saw the antler velvet again and took it directly.

At this time, Li Xiao couldn't hold so many things with both hands.

Old man Le couldn't hold back at all.

The combined value of these good things has exceeded more than a thousand taels.

far exceeded his psychological expectations of the money.

"Xiao Gongzi, my pharmacy has a small business"

Le Lao just wanted to speak, saying that he couldn't take it anymore.

Li Xiao also knew that he had reached the limit, so he accepted it when he saw it, and hurriedly opened his mouth to block his words:

"Le Lao, I have made up your friend Li Xiao, it's too polite!"

"How embarrassed are you to look at it, I said I don't need to thank you, you have to thank you"

"It's so polite, I'm embarrassed."

"You see I can't even hold it in my hand, hey, that's so polite."

While speaking, Li Xiao casually picked up a box again.

I don't look at what's inside, just clip it under my armpit.

As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit the smiling person.

The other party said so politely, and he really wanted to thank him.

There's no way to argue with that.

But Old Man Le is a shrewd man.

The money has been out, and the favor has been given.

At this time, if it is unpleasant, it is equivalent to giving it in vain.

He was strong and calm, and said with a smile: "Haha, it's okay, it's okay, the old man doesn't repay Xiao Gongzi's kindness, and he can't go in his heart, and now this stone in his heart has landed." ”

said this, but I was still annoyed in my heart, and I knew that I would have given the silver

"Then Li Xiao is disturbed today, so I will leave first."

"The old man sent you, come often."

That's it.

Le Lao was distressed on the one hand, and enthusiastically sent Li Xiao out of the store.

After sending Li Xiao out of the door, his face changed, and he hurriedly walked towards the small room with his cane.

"Don't be it! That's a good thing worth two thousand taels."

As he walked, he prayed in his heart.

Because of age, memory loss.

The box that Li Xiao took away at the end, Le Lao also forgot what was in it.

But there was one thing, which was the most expensive in that room.

One of the treasures of the town store worth 3,000 taels!

Soon, he went back to the small room and opened all the boxes one by one to see what was missing.

After looking at both sides, he finally confirmed.

This Li Xiao is really "ambergris".

"Why did you take the ambergris away?"

On Le Lao's wrinkled face, distressed tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.

"Grandpa Le, what's wrong with you."

At this time, Xu Ying'er walked over and couldn't help but ask when she saw Le Lao in tears.

"Nothing."

Le Lao touched his tears and sighed: "That Li Xiao just now, it's really good, people are also chicken thieves, they are not smart, it's a pity that he is a lover, and his heart belongs." ”

Xu Ying'er bowed her head and was silent.

Le Lao said helplessly: "Hey, Ying'er has wronged you all these years, and the old man will help you find a good family again." ”

Xu Ying'er nodded: "Grandpa Le, Xiao Ying is willing to do so in this life."

Le Lao touched her head distressedly:

"Silly Kid"

"This one, a high-end bureau!"

Li Xiaomei is really fruitful today.

With these precious medicinal herbs.

The dowry looks a little better again!

Out of the store, Li Xiao walked a long way before he opened it and took a look at what was in the box he took casually at the end.

I opened it and smelled it.

Warhol!

I know this thing.

Ambergris. The things on the whale are very precious!

I don't know how much it's worth, but it's probably the most expensive thing in it.

In this way, Li Xiao couldn't help but walk a lot brisker.
