Chapter 192 It turns out that it should be here
The storyteller was sitting cross-legged in the backyard counting money. He didn't have many opportunities to tell this ancestral story because it was short and could be told in just one show.
Regular customers don’t want to hear it a second time after they’ve heard it, so he only says it once every three months.
When the waiter brought Tan Yanlin and Yu Hongdou over, the storyteller was startled. He hurriedly put the counted money into his purse, straightened his clothes, and then came to open the door.
"Uncle Mi, the two nobles want to ask about the hat fairy." The waiter emphasized the word "nobles" and reminded the storyteller.
The storyteller had expected this. Every time he finished telling the story of the Hat Fairy, there would always be curious and greedy people coming to find out more. He was used to it.
"Two distinguished guests, please bring me a pot of Biquan tea and put it on my account." The storyteller only glanced at Tan Yanlin and Yu Hongdou and knew that the two people in front of him were real distinguished guests.
Since there was a distinguished guest and a female guest, it would be impolite to let them go inside. There happened to be a wisteria tree on the east side of the storyteller's yard, with a set of stone tables and chairs under the vine, so he let the guests go over there.
The waiter had not left yet. When he saw this situation, he immediately took out some cattail mats and spread them on the stone bench.
Tan Yanlin brought Yu Hongdou to the stone table and chairs, watched her sit down, and then sat down half-blocking in front of her.
"Hello, Mr. Mi. We are just curious. Do you have an answer to the formula you just said on the stage after all these years?" Tan Yanlin went straight to the point.
"I'm sure you and your wife can see that it's called a formula, but it's actually a question of skill."
To be honest, my family has been studying this topic for more than five generations."
"From the answer to the question itself to the technique derived from the innate Bagua, I have thought about everything that should be thought of, but so far I have only obtained a superficial answer."
The storyteller didn't expect the nobleman to be so straightforward, but he had nothing to hide, so he spoke directly.
The storyteller talked about what happened after Mi Sheng returned home.
Mi Sheng disappeared after he went to put the crab cages away at night. How could his family not be worried?
At first, they thought that Mi fell into the water in the dark, but they wanted to find him alive or dead. Mi's family searched every village along the water, but found no clues.
A few days passed and there was no news at all. Mi's family almost concluded that Mi Sheng had died.
The Mi family was heartbroken and had already prepared for Mi Sheng's funeral when he suddenly came back.
Mi Sheng returned with a huge amount of gold. Although he was frightened and fell seriously ill, he returned home in glory.
Naturally, the family members asked questions, and thus the story of Mi Sheng meeting the hat fairy was born...
"Did Mi Sheng really only bring out a strange amount of gold at that time?" After hearing this, Tan Yanlin smiled slightly, his eyes sharp, looking directly into the storyteller's eyes.
The other party seems honest, but he doesn't say anything useful.
"This..." The storyteller looked away and stammered.
Yu Hongdou was somewhat familiar with his behavior, so she reached her little hand into his sleeve and started to touch him.
However, Tan Yanlin was faster than her and directly took out a silver ingot and placed it on the stone table.
The brand new ten taels of silver sparkled with silver light under the sunlight.
The storyteller blinked several times and opened his mouth to speak, but unexpectedly the other party took out another silver ingot of the same kind.
"In addition to the gold, the ancestor also brought out several sheets of paper that he had used when studying. He had a few pages sold, and the only pages left at home were the ones on which he had written down a few problems."
The storyteller knew that the bulk of today's reward money came from the box of the nobleman in front of him.
Now, he paid twenty taels of silver in exchange for an unknown piece of information without blinking an eye. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person, so he took the opportunity to tell the follow-up which was not a secret.
Tan Yanlin frowned and glanced at Yu Hongdou behind him. Seeing the little girl looking at his hand strangely, he looked at her inquiringly, "Do you think this news is not worth it?"
"Isn't it sinking?" Yu Hongdou saw Tan Yanlin looking at her with questioning eyes, smiled and pointed at his hand.
This kind of plot of offering a reward of 1,000 taels of silver and letting the reader take it and leave appears frequently in ancient times and time-travel novels. Every time it appears, there will be readers laughing under the paragraph.
From this, Yu Hongdou realized that a thousand taels of silver weighed at least seventy or eighty kilograms, and the description of just picking it up and going away became a joke.
At this moment, one pound weighs sixteen taels. Twenty taels of silver, or more than one pound, is equivalent to carrying six or seven mobile phones in your pocket. Is it really not heavy?
"It's heavy, so there are so many people following us when we go out, and there are several people who are specifically responsible for taking the silver." Tan Yanlin laughed, weighed the silver in his hand, put it on the stone table, turned around and whispered to Yu Hongdou.
Yu Hongdou was amused. She didn't believe it. Even her father and brother knew that more than ten taels of silver could be exchanged for silver notes.
Yu Hongdou modified a copper silver bill storage container, which was cylindrical in shape and the size of a lipstick, and could hold five or six silver bills rolled up inside.
The seal is waterproof, so it can remain watertight for three to five days even if it is submerged in water.
This thing is difficult to make, and copper is not only expensive but also a controlled item. Yu Hongdou only made one for his family and teacher and then stopped.
She looked at the twenty taels of silver on the table and took out her banknote folder from her purse.
Under Tan Yanlin's gaze, the copper tube was turned, and then the knob above the copper tube was pressed and pulled, and a roller wrapped in silver bills was revealed.
"This is waterproof. You can put two or three gold beans in the middle tube just in case." After the demonstration, Yu Hongdou handed the entire silver bill storage device to Tan Yanlin without caring about the silver bills on the roller.
Tan Yanlin took the banknote storage box, fiddled with it for a while, and smiled at Yu Hongdou: "Sure enough, it has to be you."
Yu Hongdou raised her eyebrows proudly and gave the other person a gap-toothed smile in response.
Tan Yanlin just thought that this little girl was as cute as a kitten, making people want to pat her head unconsciously. He glanced at the storyteller next to him and saw that he had calmed down and motioned for him to continue.
Originally, the storyteller was about to confess as soon as Tan Yanlin took out the ten taels of silver, but he was interrupted by the little girl behind him, so the storyteller kept silent and waited for the two nobles to finish speaking.
I don’t know why, but the storyteller feels that he will die a miserable death if he interrupts.
"Well... before the ancestor came back, he secretly tore off a few pages of paper with formulas written on them from where the Hat Fairy was studying. It is said that there is a formula that can turn stone into gold, but unfortunately he lost it on the way home..."
The storyteller was full of doubt, but the things left in the house forced him to believe that there really were immortals in this world.
"Turning stone into gold?" Yu Hongdou looked at the storyteller in surprise.
"It's true. I remember that my ancestor once said [Qinghai Boli Ping] before he died. Unfortunately, my ancestor was clumsy and didn't remember the whole picture. He regretted it until his death."
The storyteller thought the young lady didn't believe him, so he hurriedly told her the last words of her ancestor before he died in hatred.
Yu Hongdou repeated the sentence [Qinghai Boliping] with a strange expression, secretly complaining in her heart that it should actually be [Hydrogen Helium Lithium Beryllium Boron].
It turns out that the mantra from another world discovered by Cao Yun and Xu Maoling should be here.
