Chapter 27 Making a Deal
"Don't bully the young man to be poor, don't you know that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, when I ascend to the immortal, it will be the time to set foot in your broken shop!" the young man shouted.
A few servants with sticks rushed out of the shop, all of whom were second- and third-order cultivators in the Yellow Realm. The shopkeeper then walked out, pointed at the young man and scolded: "Good boy, you who eat overlord's meal! I didn't want to embarrass you, but I just kicked you out of the store, and I dared to speak wild words again and again." Beat me to death!"
The young man was still unrelenting: "I, Zhao Hao, have I said that I won't give money? When I become a disciple of the Shouyuan faction, I will make up the money." You dog slave, don't look at people with dog eyes......" Before he finished speaking, several slaves had already surrounded him and beat and kicked him.
"Sister, should we help him, see how pitiful he is. Li Tian said softly beside Li Yao. Li Yao shook his head: "It's useless for you to help him." This kid is a fool, and he eats the overlord meal so reasonably. It's polite that people just blasted him out of the door, and if he didn't slip away quickly, he had to stand there stupidly and pretend to be a hero. should let him suffer this beating for a longer memory, so that he can be more clever in the future. Li Yao has seen a lot of this kind of pretentious teenager who has a heart higher than the sky but has no ability, and to put it bluntly, he lacks lessons.
Zhao Hao could still fight back with his fists at first, but later he could only protect his head with both hands, and was finally knocked to the ground. It wasn't until the boy was beaten that he couldn't get up that several of the slaves withdrew. "Forgive me for being young and ignorant, and I will spare you today. If you dare to appear at the door of our shop again in the future, I will beat you once I see you!" After the shopkeeper said this, he returned to the store with a few servants.
Zhao Hao wanted to struggle angrily, but he couldn't do it in pain. With a ding, a piece of silver fell in front of his eyes, and a crisp and beautiful voice came: "Don't be such a senseless hero, only if you can survive can you count your ability." Zhao Hao looked up at the two richly dressed young men in front of him, and before he could say that I, Zhao Hao, didn't need other people's charity, the two turned around and walked into the restaurant. Zhao Hao struggled to get up, and a voice sounded in his ears: "A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, that person is right, it's important to survive first." Zhao Hao was unwilling, so he had to pick up the silver and leave.
"Sister, didn't you say you wouldn't help him, why did you give him the silver again?"
"When he was beaten, I naturally didn't help. It's just that he has no money and is injured, give him some money and let him go quickly, so as not to affect our mood for eating. Li Yao walked straight upstairs to the VIP area, and the shopkeeper greeted him attentively. Li Tian muttered in a low voice: "Help and help, why are you duplicitous?"
Di Qi Xing suddenly rushed out and said to Li Yao: "Master, I felt my brother's breath on that kid just now!"
Li Yao glared at him: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"I didn't feel it before, but it was only after you walked into the hotel that he had my brother's breath on him. ”
"I knew it had something to do with you ghost brothers, so I wouldn't give him a penny. Li Yao went upstairs and ignored him. Di Qi Xing originally wanted to instigate Li Yao to follow the young man, but when he saw Li Yao's attitude, he retracted into Li Yao's internal space. In the past few days, he has been guarding the Qingquan Stone, although he can't touch it, but even if he just stays next to it, his soul has condensed a lot. Now he is willing to stay in Li Yao's body, and helps Li Yao take care of the space every day when he is free, classifying the things inside into different areas, and the whole space has become neat and orderly, which has greatly improved compared to before. Li Yao saw that he was still obedient, and he didn't repair him for several days.
After the two of them were seated, the runner came over to serve the order. Li Yao was not ambiguous, and directly asked him to get a few of the most expensive dishes. When the young man who ran the hall saw that the two of them were young, he was a little hesitant: "This son, our Liuxianglou is not as expensive as those ordinary restaurants, this is the most expensive ......."
"Are you afraid we won't be able to pay?" Li Yao took out a gold ingot and put it on the table.
"That's not what the little one meant, I just want to explain it to the guest officer in advance. It's okay to pay with gold and silver for the ordinary sake and food at our restaurant, but you have to use Motoshi for this top-notch dish. ”
"Oh, what kind of dish is so expensive, and you still need to use yuan stone to settle the bill?" Li Yao was a little surprised, he had never encountered a meal that needed to use yuan stone.
"Naturally, it is a dish made of demon beast meat, the flesh and bones of this demon beast contain a lot of vitality, and practitioners can not only enhance their physique, but also replenish their vitality, which is also very beneficial to cultivation. And this demon beast is already scarce and extremely difficult to catch, so the price is also extremely expensive. ”
Li Yao smiled: "It turns out that the meat and bones of demon beasts can also be cooked, so you can introduce me to what dishes are available and how much they cost." ”
"This monster isn't always caught. Recently, there are all kinds of dishes made of one-horned three-eyed cow and colorful pheasant chickens in the Yellow Realm, each dish costs five to ten spirit stones, and the other is a dish made of an iron-armored steel pig in the Xuan Realm, the demon beasts of the Xuan Realm are extremely powerful, and the team of demon hunters has lost many people to catch them, and the price is naturally more expensive, and each dish is at least twenty spirit stones. If the guest officer orders these top dishes, the small one will ask the back kitchen to write a separate menu for the guest officer to choose. "The runner said in great detail, and he also hoped to sell one or two dishes, so that he could have more silver this month.
"No need. Li Yao refused. The runner was a little disappointed, thinking that the price was to scare the boy. Before he could come out of his frustration, Li Yao took out another bag, "I'm too lazy to read the menu." There are a hundred spirit stones here, you go directly to arrange the dishes for us, and each kind of demon beast will make two or three dishes, don't worry that we can't finish eating, my brother can eat the most. ”
The young man who ran the hall was stunned, this childish young man actually shot a hundred spirit stones, and when he reacted, he hurriedly took the spirit stones with both hands: "The little one will arrange it immediately!"
"When you go downstairs, call the shopkeeper of your shop by the way, and say that I have something to look for him. Li Yao said again. Xiao Er nodded in agreement, and trotted downstairs with a smoke.
The VIP area on the second floor is extremely spacious, but there are not many people dining, firstly, it is already early after lunchtime, and secondly, most people eat in the lobby on the first floor, so it is easy not to come to this second floor.
At the table by the window in the distance, four middle-aged men with different appearances were drinking. "This little girl has changed her dress, but she has a lot of Peugeot. Xi Lao Wu, dressed as a scholar, was facing Li Yao's side.
"Is my baby apprentice also coming to this shop?" Tong Laosan, who was holding the wine jar, hurriedly got up and looked around, "Where, where? Why didn't I see it?"
"Ahem, fortunately, I laid a small array in advance to cover the movement on our side, otherwise your voice would have been exposed immediately. Boss Jin felt his big belly and lay down in the chair, looking like a scheming man.
"Hehe, I used to sit there, but I looked like the rich young master, and I almost didn't recognize it!"
"Hmph, she looks like a dog! Even a good outfit can't change her humble background. The second silver man blew his beard and glared, and said coldly.
......
The shopkeeper came upstairs with steady steps, and walked to Li Yao unhurriedly: "I don't know what the guest officer has to say." ”
Li Yao propped his hand on the table, propped his chin, and said with a half-upturned face: "Since your store sells dishes made by demon beasts, you have to spend money to buy demon beasts." ”
"That's natural, there is a team in the city that specializes in hunting demon beasts, and if you get something, you will notify us to buy it. I wonder what the guest officer is asking for?"
Li Yao played with chopsticks in one hand and said very casually: "If you want to buy demon beasts, I have a few ready-made ones here, I don't know if you can accept them?"
The shopkeeper was surprised: "Don't you joke about the guest officer?" Thinking about how old this young man is, how can he hunt demon beasts, and then he thinks about it, maybe it was the elders of his family who hunted it.
"How can we have such idle time to laugh. If you really want to buy it, I don't bother to look for another buyer. ”
"Is this serious?"
"If it's not true, can it still be fake?" Li Yao still had a nonchalant attitude.
The shopkeeper was a little excited, the dishes made with this demon beast meat were extremely profitable, but because it was not easy to catch, the store was often out of stock, if you could really buy a few at a time, it would be enough to store for several months: "Guest officer, please wait a while." I can't do this here, so let me go up and ask our shopkeeper. With that, he went up to the third floor.
"Sister, when did you catch the demon beast?" Li Tian asked in a low voice.
"While you're sleeping. ”
After waiting for a while, several dishes were served one after another, including this sweet and sour demon pig tenderloin, braised demon pig tendons, colorful chicken soup, and stewed beef...... Li Yao tasted every dish: "The taste is okay, but it doesn't make any difference." Li Tian devoured it, eating with full vitality, and the more he ate, the more energetic he became.
"You eat slowly, and no one will rob you. Although Li Yao said this, he put vegetables into Li Tian's bowl.
"It's really (too) thick (good) to eat. Li Tian wrapped the meat in his mouth, and finally swallowed it, "I have never eaten such a delicious dish!" After speaking, he began to stuff the meat into his mouth again.
"Hey, I'm afraid you're really a starving ghost reincarnated. Li Yao laughed and teased him.
The shopkeeper finally went downstairs: "This son, our shopkeeper wants to talk to you in person, so I have to trouble you to move upstairs." ”
"Okay. Li Yao stood up and said to Li Tian: "You eat slowly here, and when you finish eating, go back to the inn and wait for me." I guess it's been a long delay. Li Tian's mouth was stuffed with food, and he just nodded.
Li Tian went upstairs with the shopkeeper. Tong Laosan was not at ease: "Xiao Xiaoxiao went to talk to the shopkeeper alone about business, and he won't suffer." ”
"Third brother, you should put ten thousand hearts, how have you ever seen this little girl suffer a loss? Besides, in such a big place, the brothers are staring at it, and it can't be bad. ”
......
On the third floor is a large living room. The shopkeeper's surname is Chu, a middle-aged man with a handsome face, who is sitting on the main seat at the top and drinking tea at the moment. Seeing Li Yao come in, he motioned for her to sit down in the guest seat on the side, and arranged for someone to serve tea.
The shopkeeper of Chu saw that Li Yao was dressed extremely luxuriously, although he was very young, but his bearing was extraordinary, and he didn't dare to be too lazy, and after the two sides exchanged names, he asked Li Yao: "You said you want to sell a few demon beasts, what kind of demon beasts are they, and what kind of cultivation are they?"
Li Yao didn't answer, but asked the shopkeeper: "This demon beast will know when the shopkeeper Chu sees it later, I want to ask you first what price is used to buy this demon beast?"
Seeing that this Li Yao was young but cautious and sophisticated, the shopkeeper Chu also talked seriously about the transaction: "The demon beasts of this Yellow Realm range from one hundred to three hundred spirit stones, mainly depending on the cultivation and category; ”
As soon as Li Yao heard this, he knew that the shopkeeper had made a lot of discounts in his words: "I came to talk about business sincerely, but the shopkeeper Chu didn't think that I was young, so he wanted to bluff me." I know that this monster is a sought-after item in Gumu Town, if you don't buy it sincerely, I'll find another buyer. He got up and wanted to leave.
"Li Shaoxia is slow, this price is easy to negotiate! If you can trust it, you can take it down to see the demon beast first, if this deal can be made, the price will naturally satisfy you." The words of the shopkeeper Chu left room for both sides.
"Yes, the shopkeeper of Chu will not take advantage of a child like me, so I will take one out first and estimate the price of the shopkeeper Chu. After Li Yao finished speaking, he reached out and pulled it into his arms, and a giant python fell to the ground, which almost occupied most of the room, and the smell of blood instantly spread.
"The green-scaled cockscomb python of the Xuan Realm!" The shopkeeper Chu was stunned, thinking that the demon beast was huge, and even the Qiankun bag would be difficult to hold, so it was naturally impossible to carry it with him. And this young man actually threw the demon beast out casually, obviously carrying a treasure like a space ring on his body! The shopkeeper Chu couldn't help but blush a little.
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in his head: "I advise you not to have any crooked ideas, if you want to take advantage of my disciples, hum!"
The shopkeeper Chu was so frightened that he almost knelt down: "Transmission is secret! This is the powerful means of the Heavenly Realm!"
