Chapter 403: Yellow Stem
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Yu walked out of the bedroom wearing a white fox jacket coat, which was the new clothes that Tang Zhi bought for him.
Last night, the sect party on Chinese New Year's Eve was very late, and Liu Yu drank a lot of wine, which was a little late.
"Aunt Li, junior sister is out?" Liu Yu didn't see Tang Zhi's figure, and casually asked Aunt Li, who came with breakfast.
"I went out shopping with Fairy Ye early in the morning. Aunt Li quickly put on a big bowl of sweet potato porridge, a few dishes and a plate of osmanthus cake, and said with a smile.
"Oh!" Liu Yu shrugged in response.
"Today's street is lively, all the ladies and ladies will go to the street, and the immortal master will not go shopping. Aunt Li set up the dishes and chopsticks and said with a smile.
Liu Yu's face turned red, took a bite of porridge, and said vaguely: "I'll go out later." ”
"Immortal Master, there are guests visiting today, old woman, I will go to the street to buy some vegetables!" Aunt Li asked carefully.
"It should be that Senior Sister Ye will stay for dinner and buy some of her favorite food, by the way, Aunt Li, is the silver enough to spend?" Liu Yu picked up a piece of pickle and asked casually.
"Immortal master, you use it slowly, call the old man after eating, and the old woman will go out to buy some fresh vegetables, it's late, and the good ones will be picked up." Aunt Li hurriedly waved her hand and said, the owner treats people kindly, she and the old man have had a very good life in the past two years, the two have no children and no daughters under their knees, and treat Liu Yu like relatives.
After a pillar of incense, Liu Yu's imperial sword flew towards the hundred apricot forest on Yunhai Street, the cultivation pill in his hand was used up, and he needed to replenish some.
Liu Yu stepped on the "Wind Sword" in Beiluan City mid-air flight, look around, the streets and alleys are crowded, the courtyard, the tea shop, the wine shop is lit up, the street is beating gongs and drums are carrying out various celebrations, it seems festive and lively, the flying swords in the air are crossed, dragging out the colorful sword rays, showing the prosperity of the Beiluan commercial capital.
During the promotion of Baixinglin during the New Year, the elixirs in the store have a lot of discounts, which makes the store shoulder to shoulder, overcrowded, and the clerk is busy and dizzy.
"I'm a little busy today, so I have been waiting for a long time!" After a cup of tea, the shopkeeper Tian arrived quickly with a maidservant, and the old man said apologetically.
"It's okay to be idle here, if there is an urgent guest, you can always go and say hello first, and you won't be able to wait for a while!" Liu Yu got up and said with a smile.
"Thank you for your understanding, this is the second-grade spirit tea "Snow Luoxiang" shipped from Loulan Country in Zhongzhou of Eastern Yuan half a month ago, Xiaoyou took it to taste. The old man beckoned, and the maidservant girl with the tray stepped forward and placed a snow-white "tea brick" in front of Liu Yu.
"This can't be helped, the younger generation of the New Year has not given you the blessing of the old, how can you accept such valuable things as the old. Liu Yu hurriedly shirked and said, an ordinary second-grade spirit tea "tea brick" will cost at least thousands of low-grade spirit stones, and this "snow Luo incense" comes to Loulan Country on the other side of the Taklam Desert, and the price can be increased several times.
The old man explained with a smile: "Little friend, take it quickly! This is a New Year's gift from our store to the VIP who holds the "Thousand Wood Order", not an old person. ”
"Then you're welcome!" Liu Yu put away the "Snow Luo Xiang" on the table, the taste of this exotic spirit tea, to be honest, he was really a little greedy.
The old man made Liu Yu a cup of tea and said, "Little friend, what do you want to buy today?"
"Twenty grains of "Scattered Pills", one hundred "Lotus Core Pills". Liu Yu replied directly.
The old man waved to the maidservant on the side and said, "Go to the pharmacy and get it." ”
"By the way, didn't Xiaoyou ask Lao Yu to inquire about the news of the "Yellow Stem" a year ago! Half a month ago, the "Spring Cicada" returned from the Fengsha City of Loulan Country and brought back a piece of good news. The old man suddenly remembered and immediately spoke.
"Oh! there's news of the "Yellow Stem". Liu Yu suddenly showed a look of ecstasy, the four-flavor main medicine of "Quenching Spiritual Liquid" is now just a "yellow stem".
The old man nodded and said: "The old man trusts the Tayimu shopkeeper of Fengsha City, inquired about the news of the "Yellow Stem", and the first branch of Loulan Country received two "Yellow Stems" two months ago. ”
"I want to buy one in the next place, but I don't know when I can get it?" Liu Yu hurriedly asked.
The old man thought for a while and said: "At the beginning of next month, the "Spring Cicada" will routinely go to Fengsha City to transport goods, if Xiaoyou really wants to buy a "yellow stem", the old man will let people talk, and it will be shipped back after three months. ”
"I don't know what the price of this "yellow stem" is?" Liu Yu asked with some concern.
Originally, the price of a "Huang Gong Stem" was 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, but it needed to be transported back from Loulan through the "Spring Cicada", and 5,000 low-grade spirit stones needed to be added as freight, and all deposits needed to be paid in advance, which was a regulation of the Chamber of Commerce, and it could not be changed by decay. The old man said apologetically.
"It's okay! I will order a "yellow stem" in the next place, and thank you for always taking this matter to heart. Although the price was a bit expensive, Liu Yu could still bear it, so he responded in one bite.
The old man arched his hand and said, "Xiaoyou is too polite, this is a matter of duty." ”
The two chatted for a while, and when the maidservant girl took the "Scattered Yun Pill" and "Lotus Core Pill", Liu Yu finished paying the spirit stone, and then stopped bothering, and returned to the small courtyard out of the hundred apricot forest.
Liu Yu faced the wind and snow in the air, and his heart couldn't help dripping blood, twenty "Scattered Yun Pills", one hundred "Lotus Core Pills", plus the deposit of "Huang Gong Stem", this trip cost him more than 26,000 low-grade spirit stones, which was the result of the promotion of Baixinglin New Year, and the discount of 2,000 low-level spirit stones.
"Brother Song, Sister Yin, when did you arrive, the younger brother just went out of the door, it's really rude!" Liu Yu returned to the small courtyard, and was pleasantly surprised to find Jiang Yin and Song Hongjiang sitting in the front hall, and hurriedly stepped forward and said apologetically.
Jiang Yin chuckled and said, "Not long after I arrived, Brother Song and I rushed to the door without saying a word in advance, so I didn't disturb Brother Liu!"
"Sister Yin, look at what you said, sit down! The little brother just got a good piece of tea, Loulan Kingdom's "Snow Luo Xiang", let's try it together. Liu Yu greeted while setting up the tea set.
Jiang Yin said expectantly: "Oh! I heard that this "Snow Luo Fragrance" is soaked and dried by the second-order spirit beast "Sand Luo Beast" from the Xuefeng High Mountain Tea, and the flavor is unique. ”
"Brother Liu, these are New Year's gifts from the brothers in the regiment. Song Hongjiang pointed to the piles of mountain flavors on the table next to him, all of which were smoked and high-quality meat, including "mountain rabbit meat", "fragrant venison", "bison meat" and so on, as well as a few boxes of winter mountain fruits such as "winter pear", "cold water pomelo", "snow wind fruit" and so on.
"Brother Song, this is too much, put it away!" Liu Yu hurriedly postponed.
"These things in the mountains are worthless, they are all a little bit of the brothers' thoughts!" Jiang Yin opened her mouth to persuade.
"Aunt Li, put these away and make a few more good dishes. Liu Yu said to Aunt Li, who came to deliver hot water.
Aunt Li hurriedly replied: "Got it! Immortal Master, I'm already doing it." ”
The three of them chatted for a while, Liu Yu had already brewed a pot of "Snow Luo Xiang", Liu Yu first made a cup for Jiang Yin and Song Hongjiang, and said, "Sister Yin, Brother Song, how about it!"
Jiang Yin picked up the teacup, the tea in the cup was milky white, took a sip, the tea was sweet in the mouth, full of thick frankincense, and couldn't help but praise: "The frankincense is rich, sweet and moist, and it really has a different flavor!"
"Song is a rough person, this tea is sweet and delicious, and it is much better than the "bitter tea" that you drink on weekdays. Song Hongjiang put it in the teacup and said with a smile.
"It's really different from what I drink on a regular basis. Liu Yu took a sip and nodded in agreement. Most of the spiritual tea drunk on weekdays has an astringent and slightly sweet taste, which is "sweet", and this "snow Luo fragrance" is very different, the taste is as sweet as honey, and the frankincense is tangy, and the flavor is really unique.
