Chapter Eighty-Four: The Sword Is Gone, Let's Go
"Look at these ......, my lord"
After a while, the shopkeeper of the tooth shop brought out more than a dozen people from the backyard, half male and half female, all of them in their twenties and thirties, and their bodies were fairly clean. They all bowed their heads, and their neat clothes looked a little out of place with their appearance and demeanor.
"Don't be a woman. Li Yu'er suddenly put down the pastry in her hand and said.
Li Zhong stepped forward and explained for the shopkeeper: "The work of serving tea and water, sewing and mending at home, is still done meticulously by the maid, and if the adult marries a wife and concubine in the future, the housewife and aunt in the family also need to be served by a personal maid." ”
After Li Yu'er listened, she pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Li Zhong pursed his lips, this future aunt is jealous, and the life of the maid at home may not be easy.
Seeing that everyone was no longer talking, the shopkeeper knew that this batch was not taken care of, so he smiled and said, "Little Lao'er will change another batch." ”
"In exchange for some fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls and boys, the kind of people who are loyal to their masters only when they are mature. Li Zhong advised.
"Okay, don't worry. ”
More than a dozen people were not looked at, and their heads hung even lower. The shopkeeper agreed, took them all down, and replaced them with a group of teenage and half-grown girls and boys.
"Your Excellency, take a look at it. These are all trained by the villain, and they are clever. It's just a little more expensive than the one just now......"
Li Zhong looked at them one by one, nodded, turned around and asked Li Qiang what he meant: "These girls and boys look quite clever, they are good to train when they buy them, and they are loyal to the master's family, and they don't have so many distractions." Lady Lang, what do you see?"
Li Qiang nodded: "Just listen to Uncle Zhong." ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be! When Li Zhong heard Li Qiang's address to him, he shook his hand again and again, and his face turned red. He straightened up and picked up more seriously: "I want this, this, this...... , shopkeeper, you find some more people, my family wants a lot of money, buy more and count less, you will earn less in a while. ”
"Okay, yes, listen to you. ”
After about a cup of tea, Li Zhong picked his subordinates.
There are ten men and ten women, all of whom are delicate and smart, teenage girls and boys. Ten girls are enough for now, but in the future, if there are more housemothers and aunts in the family, they will have to buy some maids again.
I heard that I was bought by a young man, and the eyes of the selected boys and girls shone with a few different lusters.
The shopkeeper told them that the owner in front of them became famous at a young age and had a bright future, as long as they served them well, they could ensure that they had no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
These young men and women in the average flowering season can't remember the last time they ate meat. In the dental industry, although the daily training is hard and the face of the shopkeeper has to be seen, the dry rice can still be eaten.
Worry-free food and clothing is the biggest dream of these young men and women in this life.
Five taels of silver per person, which is not low in the tooth shop.
The shopkeeper took the deposit, promised to thank him for his kindness, and after personally sending the people to the house tomorrow, he bowed down and sent Li Qiang and the others out of the door.
Out of the tooth shop, before the market closed, Li Qiang was pulled by Li Yuer to hang out in the East Market.
In the East Market, the Quartet has a collection of treasures, a wide variety of goods, and a dazzling array of goods. Shops, warehouses, and residences are lined up one after another.
Li Yu'er had never been to such a bustling and lively market before, and after a while, he bought a bunch of things and loaded half a carriage.
"It turns out that silver is so useful, and you can buy so many good things. ”
Li Yu'er looked at the half-carriage of loot and said with satisfaction, and began to calculate in his heart, if the silver runs out in the future, which big demon's cave should he copy.
Hey, which big demon has more money in his house?
Li Qiang's head is a little big, this woman's shopping talent really doesn't need to be cultivated, and even a woman who has become a fine is the same.
Everywhere Li Yu'er went just now, as long as it was shining and dazzling, he had to buy it, and it was almost a whirlwind. All the shopkeepers, each one of them smiled from ear to ear after her visit. Even bracelets and bronze mirrors were bought more than a dozen each.
I don't know what's the use of buying so much, is there still a dozen hands, more than a dozen faces, do you need to use them at the same time?
"Madam, look, this pear hand bead is calm, look at this pattern, the best and most expensive goods. ”
"It's rosewood, fragrant and quaint. ”
"And this agarwood, ward off evil spirits and calm the nerves. ”
......
The shopkeeper is still recommending it vigorously, and Li Yuer also listens to it with relish.
"Shopkeeper, you're talking about the benefits of wearing a bracelet. Is there any way to say that someone like her wears more than a dozen at the same time?" Li Qiang looked at Li Yu'er who was still eager to try in front of the counter, and couldn't help but ask.
"Like Madame, wearing more than ten at the same time, it means glory and wealth, and you can't enjoy it!" the shopkeeper praised with a smile.
So this sound means glory and wealth, and it is inexhaustible, and it brought him the business of more than a dozen bracelets.
"Hey, what's there?"
Out of the jewelry shop, Li Yuer found another sparkling stall and trotted all the way over.
"Hey, slow down!"
Li Qiang had no choice but to chase after him, thinking to himself, just this once! Next time I take you to the market, I'll go back and eat the bed!
"Nanzhao tribute, cheap and good, Tong Su is not bullied!"
A boy of sixteen or seventeen years old shouted loudly beside the stalls along the street, and there were many dazzling stones of different colors on the stalls.
Li Yu'er was attracted by the light of the gemstone, and directly picked up a piece and asked the price: "Shop, this red stone is so beautiful, how much does it cost?"
"This is red agate, five hundred taels of silver. The boy replied brightly.
"Five hundred taels, you might as well grab it!" Li Yu'er was speechless and threw back the red stone in his hand: "At your price, you dare to say that the price is cheap and good, be careful that the old lady smashes your black shop!"
"If you don't buy it, don't throw it away, I'm a tribute from Nanzhao, a spiritual stone that can be used by the monks. The young man took back the red agate in distress, and after carefully checking that there were no cracks, he raised his head and shouted in surprise: "General Li Lang?"
"Are you...... Xiaoqi?" Li Qiang looked at the young man's familiar face, thought for a while, and called out the young man's name.
This young man Li Qiang has an impression, he is the apprentice of Feng Blacksmith, and the Dragon Sword in his hand is built by him.
At first, I was still a little skeptical about the quality of this sword, but after facing Bai Yunzi, Li Yu'er, and Weihe Dragon King, I found that the You Long Sword was much stronger than myself.
In the past two months, he has suffered so many injuries, but the Dragon Sword is as shiny as new, and there is no gap.
"Aren't you Blacksmith Feng's apprentice, why are you setting up a stall here?" Li Qiang asked strangely.
Xiao Qi smiled brightly: "A few days ago, business was sluggish, so I bought some spirit stones to sell." When the business of making weapons came, I closed the stall and went to work. ”
"You just said that these gems are for monks?" asked Li Qiang, pointing to the gems on the table.
"Yes, these are all spirit stones between heaven and earth, each with its own miraculous effect. Like this red agate, it can be embedded in your dragon sword to enhance the power of your sword moves. Xiao Qi explained.
Embedded in the Dragon Sword?
"How?"
Li Qiang took out the Dragon Sword and put it on the table.
"Like this. ”
Xiao Qi took out a piece of red agate, held it in his palm, and gently stroked it on the hilt of the dragon sword, a faint red light overflowed, and after letting go, the red agate was already embedded in the dragon sword.
The location seems familiar......
Li Qiang remembered that when he fought against the disciples of Dragon Tiger Mountain in the adventurer tournament before, their sword hilts were embedded with gems, but the color and luster were different.
Li Qiang picked up the Dragon Sword and waved it a few times, adding a touch of red light to the blade, which was even more powerful than before. Satisfied asked, "How much is this gem?"
"Chenghui, five hundred taels. The boy replied briskly.
"Five hundred taels, why don't you grab it!" Li Qiang threw the You Long Sword on the stall and scolded: "Profiteer, you quickly take it down for me!"
The five-entry mansion I just bought today only cost 1,500 taels. A maid in the tooth shop only sells for five taels, and a gem dares to ask for five hundred taels?
"Well, you can't take off the gem that is set in it. Xiao Qi said sincerely, without a trace of impurities in his eyes.
......
Li Yu'er blinked: "I've heard of this gem, it is said that a weapon can be inlaid with many pieces, right?"
"That's right!" Xiao Qi quickly took a more reddish-colored agate from the table, stroked the hilt of the sword with his palm, the red light overflowed, and the agate was embedded again: "Chenghui, 1,500 taels." ”
Li Yuer: "......"
Li Qiang: "......"
"Didn't you just say five hundred taels for a gem...... , how to ...... two"
"The gemstone on the back must be of higher quality than the previous one, and the price will naturally be higher. The young man's voice was still bright: "Two, fifteen hundred taels." ”
......
Don't want the sword, let's go!
