Back to ancient local masters
Chapter 26
This situation came so suddenly, both of them were stunned, and forgot to move for a while.
The lips are tightly pressed together.
The soft touch was transmitted from the lips to the apex of the heart, as if a spark had been ignited, and suddenly burned, both hearts couldn't help beating wildly.
Mo Bai's face became hot from the touch, and he leaned back violently after realizing it.Seeing Qiu Shi still staring at himself with burning eyes, he couldn't help explaining in embarrassment, "I, I, you, a leaf fell from your head." He stuttered in a sentence, but his face turned redder and redder , and finally the entire ear and neck were dyed crimson.
Seeing his distressed appearance, Qiu Shi hummed heavily, his heart still beating wildly.Just looking at Mo Bai's pretty face again, the strong emotions that had been turbulent just now suddenly became clear.
He fell in love with Mobai.
It's not the liking for your own people, but the kind of care you have for your partner.
Although I don't know when it started, and I don't know how much I like it.But he just fell in love with it and remembered it in his heart.
Qiu Shiqiang suppressed his turbulent mood and began to observe the person opposite him seriously.
Although the man's face was blushing, he didn't seem to feel shy about being close to his lover, he was probably just embarrassing about the accident just now.It seems that I am afraid that I don't have that kind of thought for him.
Qiu Shi's eyes couldn't help but darken, it seemed that there was still a long way to go before he could clarify this relationship.But now that he has confirmed his feelings for the other party, he doesn't feel disappointed, instead he can take this opportunity to test the extent of his liking for the other party.
The two had different thoughts, and they didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
Mo Bai's heart was beating wildly, and he was about to pick a topic to break the suffocating silence, when he saw Xin Bo walking in from outside the courtyard, he first took a look at Qiu Shi, and saw him leaning on the soft couch with a weak complexion , looked at Mo Bai again, and said politely, "Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master and Young Miss heard that Mr. Qiu was unwell after dinner, so they rested in the front courtyard. The old servant asked Ah Xian to serve you there. See what else do you need?"
Mo Bai straightened up subconsciously, his eyes fixed on Simbo, and he said, "For the time being, there is nothing I need for the time being."
Hearing this, Simbo glanced at him, always feeling that the young master had a weird expression today, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.He couldn't help but glanced at Qiu Shi who was on the soft couch, and saw that he was also silent, but his eyes were fixed on the young man, not knowing what he was thinking.
After thinking for a while, he couldn't help asking, "Then Mr. Qiu is in a good condition now? Do you need to prepare something more or go to the city to hire a doctor?"
Mo Bai's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, as if he just remembered that Qiu Shihuan was still sick.He couldn't help blushing for his gaffe, and seeing Simbo still staring at him in a blink of an eye, he quickly forced himself to calm down, "Let the kitchen make some ordinary meals and put them aside, and bring them over when Qiu Shi wants to eat."
Why did the young master suddenly blush?
Simber felt strange, but he didn't show it on his face.Nodding in response, he continued, "It's quite simple. Just two days ago, the farmers in the village sent some fresh vegetables, so I can take this opportunity to try them out."
Mo Bai was a little confused when he heard the words, "What are they sending vegetables for?"
"I forgot to tell you." Simbo remembered that he hadn't mentioned this matter with the young master, and immediately explained, "The commotion was so great that day when the young master crossed the robbery, and most of the farmers in the village saw it. I learned about the situation of the Mo family. After the tribulation thunder passed, many people came to express condolences to the situation of the young and old, and those vegetables were sent at that time."
Simbo also expressed emotion when he mentioned this, "Speaking of which, these farmers are quite simple. It's not counting the delivery of vegetables. When I saw the debris in the yard that was damaged by lightning, I helped clean it up until the whole yard was cleaned up." Finally, I took my leave and left. I didn’t even stay for a meal.”
Mo Bai was also very moved when he heard the words, and his initial impression of the farmers improved a lot.After thinking about it, he said to Sim Bo, "Since we have come to visit, we can't lose our manners. When the family gets better in a few days, let's invite the villagers to visit the house."
After estimating the time, he said again, "Well, it will be five days later. Take this opportunity, go down and make arrangements. This time the ingredients will be made of spiritual food. Don't make any mistakes."
Simbo nodded in response, and left after seeing the ceremony.
After this pass, the embarrassment of Mo Bai's previous idea dissipated a lot, and he was no longer so uncomfortable when facing Shangqiu.
Seeing Qiu Shi's face still pale, he became a little worried again.This person is like this now, and I don't know when he will get better.
Qingyuan Pill can indeed remove impurities from the body, but according to the system, it seems that this is only the first step in treating spiritual riots.There are still pills to be taken later, but the restrictions on cultivation are also higher, and the level in the spiritual field ring has just reached level six. Although selling the spiritual vegetables can unlock new crops, it is still far away from the next gift of pills. Level ten is still a long way off.
Speaking of the spirit, the buyers in the city still need him to go to discuss the follow-up cooperation in person, and it is time for the merchants on the East Street to settle these days.There are also shops to look at, the renovation of barren hills, the construction of houses... There are too many things for him to worry about.
But now that Qiu Shi was in such a situation, how could he go out with confidence.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt melancholy, and the frown on my forehead became tighter and tighter.
Seeing this, Qiu Shi, who had been observing him, got it wrong, thinking that he was worried about his body, so he couldn't help but asked with a smile, "What's wrong? You're frowning."
Mo Bai looked up at him, hesitated for a while, and said, "This has been delayed for a long time, and the spiritual food in the warehouse has begun to lose its spiritual energy. I want to go to the city as soon as possible, sell all the spiritual food in my hand, and ask The future cooperation has been negotiated."
"There are also those merchants on the East Street. I asked people to wait in the small teahouse. It has been hanging out for several days. It is time to come forward and give an explanation. After all, we still have to do business in the city. nice."
"And I also plan to visit a shop in the city. After waiting, I will send the spirit vegetables directly to the shop. On the one hand, it is convenient for the merchant to pick up the goods, and on the other hand, it can also be sold to other customers."
The smile on Qiu Shi's face became stiffer the more he heard it, and in the end, he simply asked, "You've almost cultivated your body now, if you want to go to the city, just go, what's there to worry about?"
Mo Bai pursed his lips, "You look like this, you are alone... I am not at ease."
Mo Bai's unintentional words made Qiu Shi's heart brighten up instantly, thinking that he was worried about me.I was happy in my heart, and my mouth became more relaxed, "I have nothing to worry about. The left and right are in my own home, and Xinbo is looking after him. What can happen?"
As he said that, he looked at Mo Bai, "It's you, who just said so much. You have to deliver the goods, talk about things, and go to the store, can you do it by yourself?"
"I'm used to doing it, so there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that I don't know much about the shops in the city, but Wenbo has been in business for many years, and I know them very well. Then I can ask him to go with me to see each other."
Who?
Qiu Shi's heart skipped a beat, and the alarm bell sounded instantly.Especially thinking of Shen Wenbo's "hypocrite" face, he couldn't calm down even more.
He collected himself, and suddenly said, "I'll go with you."
After finishing speaking, he stared at Mo Bai with burning eyes.
Mo Bai didn't expect him to say this suddenly, and was immediately taken aback.But looking at his serious face, he couldn't help frowning.Immediately refused, "No way. You have just taken the Qingyuan Pill, and you are still unstable and weak, so you are not suitable for traveling at all."
"I'm already healed!" Qiu Shi's stubbornness also came up, "The reason why I'm weak is that I'm tired after spending too much spiritual power. After a night of rest, see if I'll be alive and well tomorrow."
"If you're tired, rest for a few more days. After all, it's a big deal, and you can't afford to be careless. You can rest at home at ease."
"You are not afraid that I will get sick from boredom!"
"If you feel bored, you can go to Huange and Xiaoyu to accompany you to relieve boredom. No matter how bad it is, you can go for a walk in the village."
"Actually, I didn't go to the city just to accompany you." Qiu Shi suddenly changed his tone, lowered his eyes, pursed his lips as if he was a little embarrassed, "I actually want to go to the city to buy some pills."
"I didn't want to say it to make you worry. But you disagree with life and death, so I can only tell the truth." He raised his head and looked at Mo Bai seriously, "Although the impurities in the body have been cleaned up now, the bottom line is still hurt. It's too long, and it's not an option to rest like this. I used pills to raise it every time the spiritual energy erupted. It's just that the pills have been used up long ago, and I haven't had the opportunity to go to the city to buy more, so I delayed it."
"What elixir? You write down your name, and I'll buy it for you."
As if guessing that he would ask such a question, Qiu Shi shook his head and said, "Guixi Pill is a high-grade pill, it is very difficult to sell it in the market, and we have to go to Zhenbao Pavilion to try our luck. If not, we can only buy it." Customize some yourself."
Mo Bai looked at him steadfastly, although he was still puzzled, he couldn't shirk his excuses after all, he just promised not to delay too long, and returned to the carriage to wait for him when he was done.
When he saw Qiu Shi, he responded, and then he let go and let him go with him.
They also negotiated to set the time for the day after tomorrow.Waiting for everything to be discussed, Mo Bai drove him back to the house on the grounds that he would take the opportunity to have a good rest.
And he himself took advantage of the early time to harvest all the spiritual vegetables in the field, and bought new spiritual seedlings to plant in them.
Waiting to come back from the field, he heard Qiu Shi's voice coming from the room in the distance.He stopped for a moment, and then heard Xiaoyu say coquettishly, "Brother Ah Shi, you need to get better soon, just now in the outer courtyard, I saw a nest of birds, the nest was so broken, one of them fell out of it Come down. Fortunately, the second brother caught it, otherwise I'm afraid I will fall to my death."
"Okay, okay, when Brother Ah Shi is well, I'll take you to make a new bird's nest and hang it up." Qiu Shi's voice was a little fuzzy, but he could hear an extraordinarily gentle voice.
It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Huan Ge say in a tense voice, "Brother Ah Shi said that he would urge me to practice."
"Brother remember." There was a hint of Qiu Shi's laughter in the room, and he said with a smile, "When brother gets better, you see, I won't make you meditate every day. I won't sit for ten hours a day." You are not allowed to go out."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoyu's gleeful laughter came from the room.Immediately afterwards, Qiu Shi said, "Little fish can't run away either. You still need to be diligent in practicing. When you are successful in the future, you can share your elder brother's worries."
Two childish voices in the room answered at the same time, "Yes."
"I will definitely not let you down!"
Mo Bai couldn't help curling his lips, imagining the scene of the three of them getting along warmly in the room.Glancing at the closed window, he turned around and quietly went back to his room.There was still some time before eating, so he simply went to Lingtian Jieli.
******
After installing the Qingyuan Dan last night, he only had time to plant new medicinal seedlings, but he didn't plant spiritual vegetables.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he purchased spirit vegetable seedlings to plant, and rearranged a new field, intending to use it exclusively for growing spiritual medicine.
After guiding the elixir seedlings to bloom and bear fruit last night, he found that his cultivation had increased significantly. Although it was not particularly significant, it was much easier than hard training. Let's count it as the benefit of giving birth to the elixir seedlings.
Since there are such benefits, he will not let them go.And he found that the experience of growing elixir seedlings was several times that of growing crops.If you keep planting like this, the time to reach level ten can be shortened by half.Moreover, the effect of this Qingyuan pill is so powerful, if you want to take it out and sell it, it will only be more sought after by many monks.It's just that Huaibi is guilty, he doesn't plan to sell it directly, and he has to find time to understand the channels for selling the pill.
Thinking in this way, he bought twenty elixir seedlings with gold coins and planted them, and then left the Lingtian Ring.
When I came out, it was already dark outside, and the lights were lit everywhere in the yard, illuminating the whole yard brightly, making it very comfortable to look at.
When he entered the dining room, Huange Xiaoyu was already sitting on the seat waiting for him. When he saw him coming in, he became energetic and greeted him with a smile.
Qiu Shi was also sitting at the dinner table.He looked much more energetic than he had been during the day.
Mo Bai walked over and sat down, and while ordering Simbo to serve, he smiled and asked his younger siblings how they were doing recently, and the two children answered obediently.
After waiting for the food to be served, he served the two brothers and sisters a meal, and was about to serve Qiu Shi a bowl, when he waved his hand, "I'm not hungry yet, just drink some soup."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to scoop up a bowl of soup and took it, took a sip and then put down the bowl.
Seeing this, Mo Bai didn't force himself, he served himself a meal and asked his younger brothers and sisters to eat together.Huan Ge and Xiao Yu seemed to be in good spirits tonight, they ate two big bowls of rice, followed by a bowl of soup.
While drinking, they had to compete with Qiu Shi, the three of them finished their bowl laughing and laughing, and one of them filled some more.
The meal was extraordinarily warm, Mo Bai looked at it, somehow saw Qiu Shi's lips that were reddened by the hot soup, and suddenly thought of the kiss at noon, and his heart beat involuntarily and started to go crazy again. Jumping, the tip of the ear also began to turn red.
He hastily lowered his brows and eyes and took a sip of the soup as if to cover up, and put aside his slightly charming thoughts.But Xiaoyu beside him suddenly asked, "Hey, brother, why are you blushing?"
Following Xiaoyu's questioning, the chattering and laughing voices on the table suddenly stopped, and obviously the two of them also looked over.Mobai's mind suddenly went blank, and then he became embarrassed again, always feeling that the eyes of the three of them seemed to be burning with fire, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
He absent-mindedly perfunctory, "Big, probably because I've been tired recently."
Unexpectedly, this unintentional sentence stabbed a hornet's nest in an instant.But I don't know who gasped, and Huan Ge on the right stood up from his seat in an instant, and made a gesture to come over to touch his forehead, and said harshly with dissatisfaction, "Jie Dan is weak after suffering such a serious injury." , you are still dragging your body and working so hard, but you are tired and sick? Let me see if you have a fever? Or let Simber go and ask the doctor to take a look at you?"
"No, there's no need." Mo Bai was a little overwhelmed by his attitude of being ready, and quickly turned his head to avoid his protruding hand.Seeing that Huan Ge was about to cry with a sullen face, he forced himself to suppress his emotions and explained, "Brother is just a little tired, just go back and rest."
Just when he was halfway through speaking, he caught a glimpse of Qiu Shi looking at him leisurely from the corner of his eye.There was a sudden buzz in my head, and my whole face turned red like a shrimp.I always feel that the other party has already seen through myself.
I was really worried, as if there was a needle pricking my buttocks.He couldn't sit still any longer, so on the pretext that he wanted to go back to rest earlier, he fled back to the house in a hurry, leaving only the little fish with an unclear face and the happy song with a worried face.
On the other hand, Qiu Shi was still sitting in his seat, drinking the soup leisurely, but the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.
******
When I woke up the next day, everything that happened last night seemed to be forgotten by everyone, and no one mentioned it again.After having a peaceful breakfast, Mo Bai finally secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
After a night of rest, Qiu Shi really got better. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that he was more energetic than before.After feeling his pulse, he went to the field again.
The spirit vegetables planted yesterday were already ripe, and he planned to go to Lizheng to discuss about contracting the river after harvesting the spirit vegetables.
Before noon after finishing the work, Mo Bai went home to tidy up, then went to Lizheng's house with a basket of spiritual vegetables.
Lizheng's house is in the middle of the village, two two-story houses surrounded by a bamboo fence.When I went there, I met Li who was feeding the chickens in the yard with bread.
Mo Bai called out, "Uncle De."
The man with gray temples heard the sound and looked over. When he saw him, he responded with a smile, "Master Mo, is this alright? The door is unlocked, just push it in." As soon as the food was thrown into the distance, he walked towards it.
Mo Bai glanced at the chickens scrambling for food in the yard, and said with a smile, "Uncle De is busy?"
"Hey, there's nothing to be busy about. Just feed a few chickens." Uncle De rubbed his hands on his clothes, and beckoned Mo Bai to go inside, "Come sit in the room."
Mo Bai responded with a smile, and then passed the basket in his hand to him, "I bring the vegetables grown at home for you to try. I hope Uncle De will not dislike them."
Uncle De took a look at the situation, but his complexion changed instantly, and he shyly refused, "You can't do it. You are too precious. Take it back quickly."
"There's nothing you can't do with it, it's the vegetables grown by myself." Mo Bai grabbed his prevaricating hand and forced the basket to him, "Uncle De, if you don't accept it, then I'll just turn around and go out."
"You..." Uncle De couldn't evade the excuse, so he had to take the vegetable basket away, and said with a little embarrassment on his face, "I don't know where to put it." The whole basket of high-quality spiritual vegetables, It's worth a lot of money!
"Why don't you just have a light meal at my house at noon? Just try Uncle De's craftsmanship." Uncle De smiled shyly, then slapped his head suddenly, "Look at me, I'm just talking nonsense. Please come inside .”
Mo Bai smiled and said it was okay, and followed Uncle De into the main room.
Uncle De beckoned him to sit down, and brewed two more cups of tea, "The house is humble, and there are only these things, so young master Mo will be wronged."
"I look pretty good," Mo Bai reached out to take the teacup, and asked casually, "Is Uncle De the only one at home?"
"Now I'm the only old man left to guard the house. My son went to Qianzhongmen with his cousin a few years ago, and he thought it was too rare to come back." Uncle De mentioned his son with a very proud face, "Listen It’s not bad to be in the sect, so I don’t need to worry about it.”
"If you can enter the Thousand Gates, you must have a bright future." Mo Bai echoed, and said with emotion, "I heard that there are quite a lot of children in the village who have gone to the sect. It seems that our village is full of talents."
"That's not true." Mentioning this Uncle De is even more honorable, "Don't look at the barren land in our village, there are quite a lot of capable and talented children. How did you say that... Flying in the mountain nest Phoenix."
Mo Bai smiled, and said closely about his topic, "Speaking of this, has Uncle De thought about improving the conditions in the village? Now that the roads in the village have been repaired, the grain in the fields is still two or three years away from a good harvest. Yue, don't you guys all stay at home?"
"Not all of them are idle. Most of them will go to the city to find some work. After all, they have a big family to support, so how dare they be really idle."
"Looking for work in the city is no better than in the village. It must be more inconvenient, and the pay is lower."
"Then what... what does Young Master Mo mean?"
Seeing that he finally came to his senses, Mo Bai couldn't help but smiled, "I have some ideas, but I don't know if it can be done, and I need Uncle De to listen and give some advice."
"Master Mo, it's okay to say."
"It's not that I was sick at home a few days ago, and I have been grateful for the fact that everyone in the village went to visit, and I have nothing to repay. I just thought, why don't you hire some jobs for the big guys, anyway, hiring outsiders is also useful. The ones in my own village are very good." Mo Bai picked up some good ones and said, seeing that Uncle De's face was really moved, he couldn't help but continued, "Speaking of which, there is an open space at the foot of the barren hills of the Mo family. I pushed to build a row of houses, which is a lot of work, if there is someone in the village who knows how to do it, I would like to hand over the matter to the villagers, and it will be my heart."
"It's a good feeling!" Uncle De's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a lot of work, so that about all the people in the village didn't have to go to the city to go to work in the early morning. "I dare not say anything else, repairing the house There is no one who is more knowledgeable about this matter than our village! You know the Wu family at the head of the village, right? Boss Wu and his brothers specialize in doing this! Anyone with a little background in our village takes over the work in his hands."
"Don't talk about repairing the house, just making furniture in the house, close to the old Liu's family at the far end. Three generations of ancestors were carpenters. The third son of Liu is even a good carpenter. Most of the tricky things in our village Most of the carpentry work is done by him. Even many shops in the city have come to invite him to work."
The more Uncle De talked, the more excited he was, and he almost rushed to break through all the various jobs that the villagers would do.Mo Bai has been listening quietly, echoing a few words from time to time, waiting for the conversation to come to an end, and the matter is settled seven or eight times, and the rest depends on how he talks to those people.
After talking about this, Mo Bai mentioned his real purpose of coming here, "Speaking of this, I actually have a job in hand, but I still have to see if Uncle De and the big guys nod."
After what happened just now, Uncle De's heart was still surging, and he immediately decided, "There's nothing difficult about this, just say it, Young Master Mo!"
Mo Bai was not so optimistic, he smiled, "That's right, I want to dig a pond near the edge of the field and plant some lotus roots, but lotus roots must be kept in running water to be delicious, right? Next to it is the lower section of the Xiangyang River, so I thought about connecting the pond to the river, so that it would not affect the water supply in the village. How does Uncle De look?"
"This..." Uncle De was really stumped this time, when he thought of the bold words he had just put down just now, his face was a little embarrassed for a while, but he really couldn't say anything in agreement.After all, rivers are the basis of survival for the entire village, so he dare not lie.
Mo Bai naturally also saw his embarrassment, and immediately said, "Of course, the section of the river that digs the pond should be my contract, and how to calculate the price depends entirely on the village. After all, this pond is shared by the village. You can't let Uncle De be too difficult. But for this matter, you have to ask Uncle De to help talk to the village. Whether it can be done or not depends entirely on God's will." To put it bluntly, it is resigned to fate.
Uncle De nodded when he heard the words, but he didn't finish his sentence, "Let me think about it later."
"Then I would like to thank Uncle De first."
After saying this, the matter was revealed again.Mobai chatted with Uncle De for a while, and then described to him intentionally or unintentionally his vision for the future of the village, which made Uncle De feel overwhelmed, as if wishing to witness a miracle right away.
Seeing that his goal had almost been achieved, he argued with Uncle De for a while, until someone in the room came to look for him and said he had something to report, and then he said goodbye to Uncle De with a sorry face.
It was Qiu Shi who came to him.
Before leaving the house, he mentioned to Qiu Shi that he wanted to find Li Zheng, and he also mentioned that if there was something wrong at home, just go over there and look for him.
According to Qiu Shi's brain, he presumably understood what he meant.
Sure enough, after finishing the business, it didn't take long for Qiu Shi to find him.
On the way, waiting to get away from Lizheng's home, Qiu Shi asked him, "How is the matter going?"
"It's good or bad." Mo Bai said persuasively, "But don't worry, I will mention it later when the villagers are entertained, and they will know what will happen next." After all, it is a way to make money, and he started The salary here is not lower than that in the city, but anyone who can weigh it will not refuse.
Qiu Shi nodded when he heard the words, and stopped asking more questions, and started talking about family affairs.
The two went home all the way, and after eating with Huange Xiaoyu, they didn't go out again. He was going to the city in the future and had a lot of work to do. He didn't want to make himself too tired.It happened that Xiaoyu was going to practice calligraphy in the afternoon, so Mo Bai leaned in the courtyard and explained the main points to the two while watching Qiu.
It was a peaceful afternoon.
After dinner in the evening, he chatted with Xiaoyu for a while, and then went back to their rooms and went to bed early.
******
Early the next morning, Mo Bai got up early, and after getting the house ready, he went out at the same time as Qiu Shi.
Along the way, Qiu Shi chatted and laughed with him, and Mo Bai chatted with him from time to time, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
While he was talking, he suddenly heard a bird call outside, which was soft like a warbler, but suddenly high-pitched, as if flying in the distant sky.
Mo Bai was curious, but he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain but did not see the shadow of the bird, so he couldn't help muttering, "What kind of bird call is this? I don't think I've heard it before."
He stuck out half of his head and searched around in the air, but he still couldn't see half of the bird, and he felt even more curious.And because he was focused on finding the bird, he didn't see the slight change in Qiu Shi's expression behind him.
"It's strange, I only heard the bird's call, but I didn't see half of the bird."
Mo Bai murmured resentfully, put down the curtain and sat back in the carriage, and heard Qiu Shi laughing, "Summer is the time when flowers and birds are alive, I'm afraid he happened to pass by."
"I guess so." Mo Bai nodded when he heard the words, and quickly put the matter behind him.
The carriage traveled another way, and soon arrived in Anle City.
Waiting to enter the city, Mo Bai still asked the coachman to park the carriage in the alley where the east and west streets meet.After agreeing with Qiu Shi to wait for him in the carriage after buying the elixir, Mo Bai got out of the car and walked towards the East Street, intending to deliver the food first, and Qiu Shi followed closely to order the elixir.
After parting ways, Mo Bai went straight to East Street, while Qiu Shi turned around and turned into an alley.It was only after walking into the alley for a while that he stopped again, turned back and watched Mo Bai walk into the Lingyin Pavilion in the shadow of the alley, and then left in a flash.
******
When Mo Bai entered the Lingyin Pavilion, the doorman who was outside showed a rare expression of surprise, and hurried over to welcome him to his seat, and then called the shopkeeper to come over quickly.
And when he heard that Mo Bai was coming, the shopkeeper became even more exaggerated, he threw the receipt in his hand, and then flashed out from the counter, with that posture, he even used his spiritual energy.
"Mr. Mo, you're finally here. If you don't come, my Lingyin Pavilion will be ruined."
Mo Bai smiled and called Shopkeeper Jin, "Shopkeeper, are you all right?"
"Hey, if you don't come again, I'm afraid I'll be out of trouble." Shopkeeper Jin sat down on the seat next to him, and suddenly paused, "Mr. Mo, is this...a pill formation?" I thought that this young man could grow such a good spiritual vegetable, I am afraid that his cultivation is just a deception, but the breath in front of him...
"Yes. Let the shopkeeper make a joke." Mo Bai agreed with a smile, "I got a pill and ended up lying in bed for several days. No, I came here as soon as I recovered."
The shopkeeper opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to say, "...Congratulations, congratulations."
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Mo Bai responded generously, then turned to talk about the business, "Today, I actually have something else I want to discuss with the shopkeeper."
"I'm afraid the shopkeeper has heard the rumors in the city some time ago?" Seeing the shopkeeper's nod, Mo Bai said again, "Actually, this matter is not groundless, and I did let it out. The shopkeeper knows I think the shopkeepers have also heard about the fact that those restaurants on the East Street are quietly guarding the small teahouses every day."
"Mr. Mo has something to say, but it's okay to say it."
"Then I'll get straight to the point. I will definitely do business on the East Street, but as I said before, I will definitely supply Lingyin Pavilion and Lingchu Tianxia according to the previous order quantity."
"The shopkeeper signed a contract with me earlier, ordering [-] catties of each variety of spiritual vegetables from the Mo family. I just want to ask, is the quantity of the shopkeeper still increasing? If not, then we will deliver goods according to this quantity in the future."
"Add, add, how can we not increase. I still think it's too little."
Mo Bai nodded, "Since we want to add more, then we have an argument. My delivery capacity is limited here, and I definitely can't load too much. At most, each of them can load an extra one hundred catties."
"But if the shopkeeper is willing to pick up the goods by himself, then I agree to increase the order quantity by [-] catties each, for a total of [-] catties. After that, if there is still money left in the library, the shopkeeper can also buy another one, but the price Naturally, it will be more expensive than what you ordered, and the price is the same as outside. What do you think of the shopkeeper?"
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment. Although he felt that this method is feasible, he still had some concerns, "Where is Mr. Mo's warehouse? If I pick up the goods, where will my people go to find you?"
"I haven't bought a warehouse yet, but I plan to buy a store in the city in the next two days, and I will also send people over to manage the spiritual food." Mo Bai added, "I will choose the store I bought. Around East-West Street, it’s convenient to be close.”
"That's very good." The shopkeeper responded after hearing the words, "Then I'll wait for news from Mr. Mo. But should I also confirm the delivery date? It's not good for me to wait here like a headless chicken. .”
"That's natural. Shopkeeper, let's see how it goes. From now on, you will go to the store to pick up the goods every few days. At that time, I will ask someone to count them in advance, and you can take them away after inspection."
Ten days is not too long, it's almost like a round of spirit vegetables is sold out.The shopkeeper nodded in response, and mentioned some other details. After the two had agreed, they signed a new contract and sold the spiritual vegetables brought today to Lingyin Pavilion according to the specifications in the new contract.
As for the fresh lotus root, since it was summer, Shopkeeper Jin asked for an extra thousand catties.
After waiting for the money and goods to settle, Mo Bai left the Lingyin Pavilion and turned to the Lingchu Tianxia on the East Street.
And waiting for him to go out, another person appeared in the lobby of Lingyin Pavilion on his back. Xin Chang's body was wrapped in a purple brocade robe, standing in the corner watching Mo Bai go away, and then gradually came out of the shadows .
Looking carefully, it was Qiu Shi who said earlier that he was going to buy the elixir.
The lips are tightly pressed together.
The soft touch was transmitted from the lips to the apex of the heart, as if a spark had been ignited, and suddenly burned, both hearts couldn't help beating wildly.
Mo Bai's face became hot from the touch, and he leaned back violently after realizing it.Seeing Qiu Shi still staring at himself with burning eyes, he couldn't help explaining in embarrassment, "I, I, you, a leaf fell from your head." He stuttered in a sentence, but his face turned redder and redder , and finally the entire ear and neck were dyed crimson.
Seeing his distressed appearance, Qiu Shi hummed heavily, his heart still beating wildly.Just looking at Mo Bai's pretty face again, the strong emotions that had been turbulent just now suddenly became clear.
He fell in love with Mobai.
It's not the liking for your own people, but the kind of care you have for your partner.
Although I don't know when it started, and I don't know how much I like it.But he just fell in love with it and remembered it in his heart.
Qiu Shiqiang suppressed his turbulent mood and began to observe the person opposite him seriously.
Although the man's face was blushing, he didn't seem to feel shy about being close to his lover, he was probably just embarrassing about the accident just now.It seems that I am afraid that I don't have that kind of thought for him.
Qiu Shi's eyes couldn't help but darken, it seemed that there was still a long way to go before he could clarify this relationship.But now that he has confirmed his feelings for the other party, he doesn't feel disappointed, instead he can take this opportunity to test the extent of his liking for the other party.
The two had different thoughts, and they didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
Mo Bai's heart was beating wildly, and he was about to pick a topic to break the suffocating silence, when he saw Xin Bo walking in from outside the courtyard, he first took a look at Qiu Shi, and saw him leaning on the soft couch with a weak complexion , looked at Mo Bai again, and said politely, "Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master and Young Miss heard that Mr. Qiu was unwell after dinner, so they rested in the front courtyard. The old servant asked Ah Xian to serve you there. See what else do you need?"
Mo Bai straightened up subconsciously, his eyes fixed on Simbo, and he said, "For the time being, there is nothing I need for the time being."
Hearing this, Simbo glanced at him, always feeling that the young master had a weird expression today, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.He couldn't help but glanced at Qiu Shi who was on the soft couch, and saw that he was also silent, but his eyes were fixed on the young man, not knowing what he was thinking.
After thinking for a while, he couldn't help asking, "Then Mr. Qiu is in a good condition now? Do you need to prepare something more or go to the city to hire a doctor?"
Mo Bai's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, as if he just remembered that Qiu Shihuan was still sick.He couldn't help blushing for his gaffe, and seeing Simbo still staring at him in a blink of an eye, he quickly forced himself to calm down, "Let the kitchen make some ordinary meals and put them aside, and bring them over when Qiu Shi wants to eat."
Why did the young master suddenly blush?
Simber felt strange, but he didn't show it on his face.Nodding in response, he continued, "It's quite simple. Just two days ago, the farmers in the village sent some fresh vegetables, so I can take this opportunity to try them out."
Mo Bai was a little confused when he heard the words, "What are they sending vegetables for?"
"I forgot to tell you." Simbo remembered that he hadn't mentioned this matter with the young master, and immediately explained, "The commotion was so great that day when the young master crossed the robbery, and most of the farmers in the village saw it. I learned about the situation of the Mo family. After the tribulation thunder passed, many people came to express condolences to the situation of the young and old, and those vegetables were sent at that time."
Simbo also expressed emotion when he mentioned this, "Speaking of which, these farmers are quite simple. It's not counting the delivery of vegetables. When I saw the debris in the yard that was damaged by lightning, I helped clean it up until the whole yard was cleaned up." Finally, I took my leave and left. I didn’t even stay for a meal.”
Mo Bai was also very moved when he heard the words, and his initial impression of the farmers improved a lot.After thinking about it, he said to Sim Bo, "Since we have come to visit, we can't lose our manners. When the family gets better in a few days, let's invite the villagers to visit the house."
After estimating the time, he said again, "Well, it will be five days later. Take this opportunity, go down and make arrangements. This time the ingredients will be made of spiritual food. Don't make any mistakes."
Simbo nodded in response, and left after seeing the ceremony.
After this pass, the embarrassment of Mo Bai's previous idea dissipated a lot, and he was no longer so uncomfortable when facing Shangqiu.
Seeing Qiu Shi's face still pale, he became a little worried again.This person is like this now, and I don't know when he will get better.
Qingyuan Pill can indeed remove impurities from the body, but according to the system, it seems that this is only the first step in treating spiritual riots.There are still pills to be taken later, but the restrictions on cultivation are also higher, and the level in the spiritual field ring has just reached level six. Although selling the spiritual vegetables can unlock new crops, it is still far away from the next gift of pills. Level ten is still a long way off.
Speaking of the spirit, the buyers in the city still need him to go to discuss the follow-up cooperation in person, and it is time for the merchants on the East Street to settle these days.There are also shops to look at, the renovation of barren hills, the construction of houses... There are too many things for him to worry about.
But now that Qiu Shi was in such a situation, how could he go out with confidence.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt melancholy, and the frown on my forehead became tighter and tighter.
Seeing this, Qiu Shi, who had been observing him, got it wrong, thinking that he was worried about his body, so he couldn't help but asked with a smile, "What's wrong? You're frowning."
Mo Bai looked up at him, hesitated for a while, and said, "This has been delayed for a long time, and the spiritual food in the warehouse has begun to lose its spiritual energy. I want to go to the city as soon as possible, sell all the spiritual food in my hand, and ask The future cooperation has been negotiated."
"There are also those merchants on the East Street. I asked people to wait in the small teahouse. It has been hanging out for several days. It is time to come forward and give an explanation. After all, we still have to do business in the city. nice."
"And I also plan to visit a shop in the city. After waiting, I will send the spirit vegetables directly to the shop. On the one hand, it is convenient for the merchant to pick up the goods, and on the other hand, it can also be sold to other customers."
The smile on Qiu Shi's face became stiffer the more he heard it, and in the end, he simply asked, "You've almost cultivated your body now, if you want to go to the city, just go, what's there to worry about?"
Mo Bai pursed his lips, "You look like this, you are alone... I am not at ease."
Mo Bai's unintentional words made Qiu Shi's heart brighten up instantly, thinking that he was worried about me.I was happy in my heart, and my mouth became more relaxed, "I have nothing to worry about. The left and right are in my own home, and Xinbo is looking after him. What can happen?"
As he said that, he looked at Mo Bai, "It's you, who just said so much. You have to deliver the goods, talk about things, and go to the store, can you do it by yourself?"
"I'm used to doing it, so there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that I don't know much about the shops in the city, but Wenbo has been in business for many years, and I know them very well. Then I can ask him to go with me to see each other."
Who?
Qiu Shi's heart skipped a beat, and the alarm bell sounded instantly.Especially thinking of Shen Wenbo's "hypocrite" face, he couldn't calm down even more.
He collected himself, and suddenly said, "I'll go with you."
After finishing speaking, he stared at Mo Bai with burning eyes.
Mo Bai didn't expect him to say this suddenly, and was immediately taken aback.But looking at his serious face, he couldn't help frowning.Immediately refused, "No way. You have just taken the Qingyuan Pill, and you are still unstable and weak, so you are not suitable for traveling at all."
"I'm already healed!" Qiu Shi's stubbornness also came up, "The reason why I'm weak is that I'm tired after spending too much spiritual power. After a night of rest, see if I'll be alive and well tomorrow."
"If you're tired, rest for a few more days. After all, it's a big deal, and you can't afford to be careless. You can rest at home at ease."
"You are not afraid that I will get sick from boredom!"
"If you feel bored, you can go to Huange and Xiaoyu to accompany you to relieve boredom. No matter how bad it is, you can go for a walk in the village."
"Actually, I didn't go to the city just to accompany you." Qiu Shi suddenly changed his tone, lowered his eyes, pursed his lips as if he was a little embarrassed, "I actually want to go to the city to buy some pills."
"I didn't want to say it to make you worry. But you disagree with life and death, so I can only tell the truth." He raised his head and looked at Mo Bai seriously, "Although the impurities in the body have been cleaned up now, the bottom line is still hurt. It's too long, and it's not an option to rest like this. I used pills to raise it every time the spiritual energy erupted. It's just that the pills have been used up long ago, and I haven't had the opportunity to go to the city to buy more, so I delayed it."
"What elixir? You write down your name, and I'll buy it for you."
As if guessing that he would ask such a question, Qiu Shi shook his head and said, "Guixi Pill is a high-grade pill, it is very difficult to sell it in the market, and we have to go to Zhenbao Pavilion to try our luck. If not, we can only buy it." Customize some yourself."
Mo Bai looked at him steadfastly, although he was still puzzled, he couldn't shirk his excuses after all, he just promised not to delay too long, and returned to the carriage to wait for him when he was done.
When he saw Qiu Shi, he responded, and then he let go and let him go with him.
They also negotiated to set the time for the day after tomorrow.Waiting for everything to be discussed, Mo Bai drove him back to the house on the grounds that he would take the opportunity to have a good rest.
And he himself took advantage of the early time to harvest all the spiritual vegetables in the field, and bought new spiritual seedlings to plant in them.
Waiting to come back from the field, he heard Qiu Shi's voice coming from the room in the distance.He stopped for a moment, and then heard Xiaoyu say coquettishly, "Brother Ah Shi, you need to get better soon, just now in the outer courtyard, I saw a nest of birds, the nest was so broken, one of them fell out of it Come down. Fortunately, the second brother caught it, otherwise I'm afraid I will fall to my death."
"Okay, okay, when Brother Ah Shi is well, I'll take you to make a new bird's nest and hang it up." Qiu Shi's voice was a little fuzzy, but he could hear an extraordinarily gentle voice.
It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Huan Ge say in a tense voice, "Brother Ah Shi said that he would urge me to practice."
"Brother remember." There was a hint of Qiu Shi's laughter in the room, and he said with a smile, "When brother gets better, you see, I won't make you meditate every day. I won't sit for ten hours a day." You are not allowed to go out."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoyu's gleeful laughter came from the room.Immediately afterwards, Qiu Shi said, "Little fish can't run away either. You still need to be diligent in practicing. When you are successful in the future, you can share your elder brother's worries."
Two childish voices in the room answered at the same time, "Yes."
"I will definitely not let you down!"
Mo Bai couldn't help curling his lips, imagining the scene of the three of them getting along warmly in the room.Glancing at the closed window, he turned around and quietly went back to his room.There was still some time before eating, so he simply went to Lingtian Jieli.
******
After installing the Qingyuan Dan last night, he only had time to plant new medicinal seedlings, but he didn't plant spiritual vegetables.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he purchased spirit vegetable seedlings to plant, and rearranged a new field, intending to use it exclusively for growing spiritual medicine.
After guiding the elixir seedlings to bloom and bear fruit last night, he found that his cultivation had increased significantly. Although it was not particularly significant, it was much easier than hard training. Let's count it as the benefit of giving birth to the elixir seedlings.
Since there are such benefits, he will not let them go.And he found that the experience of growing elixir seedlings was several times that of growing crops.If you keep planting like this, the time to reach level ten can be shortened by half.Moreover, the effect of this Qingyuan pill is so powerful, if you want to take it out and sell it, it will only be more sought after by many monks.It's just that Huaibi is guilty, he doesn't plan to sell it directly, and he has to find time to understand the channels for selling the pill.
Thinking in this way, he bought twenty elixir seedlings with gold coins and planted them, and then left the Lingtian Ring.
When I came out, it was already dark outside, and the lights were lit everywhere in the yard, illuminating the whole yard brightly, making it very comfortable to look at.
When he entered the dining room, Huange Xiaoyu was already sitting on the seat waiting for him. When he saw him coming in, he became energetic and greeted him with a smile.
Qiu Shi was also sitting at the dinner table.He looked much more energetic than he had been during the day.
Mo Bai walked over and sat down, and while ordering Simbo to serve, he smiled and asked his younger siblings how they were doing recently, and the two children answered obediently.
After waiting for the food to be served, he served the two brothers and sisters a meal, and was about to serve Qiu Shi a bowl, when he waved his hand, "I'm not hungry yet, just drink some soup."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to scoop up a bowl of soup and took it, took a sip and then put down the bowl.
Seeing this, Mo Bai didn't force himself, he served himself a meal and asked his younger brothers and sisters to eat together.Huan Ge and Xiao Yu seemed to be in good spirits tonight, they ate two big bowls of rice, followed by a bowl of soup.
While drinking, they had to compete with Qiu Shi, the three of them finished their bowl laughing and laughing, and one of them filled some more.
The meal was extraordinarily warm, Mo Bai looked at it, somehow saw Qiu Shi's lips that were reddened by the hot soup, and suddenly thought of the kiss at noon, and his heart beat involuntarily and started to go crazy again. Jumping, the tip of the ear also began to turn red.
He hastily lowered his brows and eyes and took a sip of the soup as if to cover up, and put aside his slightly charming thoughts.But Xiaoyu beside him suddenly asked, "Hey, brother, why are you blushing?"
Following Xiaoyu's questioning, the chattering and laughing voices on the table suddenly stopped, and obviously the two of them also looked over.Mobai's mind suddenly went blank, and then he became embarrassed again, always feeling that the eyes of the three of them seemed to be burning with fire, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
He absent-mindedly perfunctory, "Big, probably because I've been tired recently."
Unexpectedly, this unintentional sentence stabbed a hornet's nest in an instant.But I don't know who gasped, and Huan Ge on the right stood up from his seat in an instant, and made a gesture to come over to touch his forehead, and said harshly with dissatisfaction, "Jie Dan is weak after suffering such a serious injury." , you are still dragging your body and working so hard, but you are tired and sick? Let me see if you have a fever? Or let Simber go and ask the doctor to take a look at you?"
"No, there's no need." Mo Bai was a little overwhelmed by his attitude of being ready, and quickly turned his head to avoid his protruding hand.Seeing that Huan Ge was about to cry with a sullen face, he forced himself to suppress his emotions and explained, "Brother is just a little tired, just go back and rest."
Just when he was halfway through speaking, he caught a glimpse of Qiu Shi looking at him leisurely from the corner of his eye.There was a sudden buzz in my head, and my whole face turned red like a shrimp.I always feel that the other party has already seen through myself.
I was really worried, as if there was a needle pricking my buttocks.He couldn't sit still any longer, so on the pretext that he wanted to go back to rest earlier, he fled back to the house in a hurry, leaving only the little fish with an unclear face and the happy song with a worried face.
On the other hand, Qiu Shi was still sitting in his seat, drinking the soup leisurely, but the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.
******
When I woke up the next day, everything that happened last night seemed to be forgotten by everyone, and no one mentioned it again.After having a peaceful breakfast, Mo Bai finally secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
After a night of rest, Qiu Shi really got better. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that he was more energetic than before.After feeling his pulse, he went to the field again.
The spirit vegetables planted yesterday were already ripe, and he planned to go to Lizheng to discuss about contracting the river after harvesting the spirit vegetables.
Before noon after finishing the work, Mo Bai went home to tidy up, then went to Lizheng's house with a basket of spiritual vegetables.
Lizheng's house is in the middle of the village, two two-story houses surrounded by a bamboo fence.When I went there, I met Li who was feeding the chickens in the yard with bread.
Mo Bai called out, "Uncle De."
The man with gray temples heard the sound and looked over. When he saw him, he responded with a smile, "Master Mo, is this alright? The door is unlocked, just push it in." As soon as the food was thrown into the distance, he walked towards it.
Mo Bai glanced at the chickens scrambling for food in the yard, and said with a smile, "Uncle De is busy?"
"Hey, there's nothing to be busy about. Just feed a few chickens." Uncle De rubbed his hands on his clothes, and beckoned Mo Bai to go inside, "Come sit in the room."
Mo Bai responded with a smile, and then passed the basket in his hand to him, "I bring the vegetables grown at home for you to try. I hope Uncle De will not dislike them."
Uncle De took a look at the situation, but his complexion changed instantly, and he shyly refused, "You can't do it. You are too precious. Take it back quickly."
"There's nothing you can't do with it, it's the vegetables grown by myself." Mo Bai grabbed his prevaricating hand and forced the basket to him, "Uncle De, if you don't accept it, then I'll just turn around and go out."
"You..." Uncle De couldn't evade the excuse, so he had to take the vegetable basket away, and said with a little embarrassment on his face, "I don't know where to put it." The whole basket of high-quality spiritual vegetables, It's worth a lot of money!
"Why don't you just have a light meal at my house at noon? Just try Uncle De's craftsmanship." Uncle De smiled shyly, then slapped his head suddenly, "Look at me, I'm just talking nonsense. Please come inside .”
Mo Bai smiled and said it was okay, and followed Uncle De into the main room.
Uncle De beckoned him to sit down, and brewed two more cups of tea, "The house is humble, and there are only these things, so young master Mo will be wronged."
"I look pretty good," Mo Bai reached out to take the teacup, and asked casually, "Is Uncle De the only one at home?"
"Now I'm the only old man left to guard the house. My son went to Qianzhongmen with his cousin a few years ago, and he thought it was too rare to come back." Uncle De mentioned his son with a very proud face, "Listen It’s not bad to be in the sect, so I don’t need to worry about it.”
"If you can enter the Thousand Gates, you must have a bright future." Mo Bai echoed, and said with emotion, "I heard that there are quite a lot of children in the village who have gone to the sect. It seems that our village is full of talents."
"That's not true." Mentioning this Uncle De is even more honorable, "Don't look at the barren land in our village, there are quite a lot of capable and talented children. How did you say that... Flying in the mountain nest Phoenix."
Mo Bai smiled, and said closely about his topic, "Speaking of this, has Uncle De thought about improving the conditions in the village? Now that the roads in the village have been repaired, the grain in the fields is still two or three years away from a good harvest. Yue, don't you guys all stay at home?"
"Not all of them are idle. Most of them will go to the city to find some work. After all, they have a big family to support, so how dare they be really idle."
"Looking for work in the city is no better than in the village. It must be more inconvenient, and the pay is lower."
"Then what... what does Young Master Mo mean?"
Seeing that he finally came to his senses, Mo Bai couldn't help but smiled, "I have some ideas, but I don't know if it can be done, and I need Uncle De to listen and give some advice."
"Master Mo, it's okay to say."
"It's not that I was sick at home a few days ago, and I have been grateful for the fact that everyone in the village went to visit, and I have nothing to repay. I just thought, why don't you hire some jobs for the big guys, anyway, hiring outsiders is also useful. The ones in my own village are very good." Mo Bai picked up some good ones and said, seeing that Uncle De's face was really moved, he couldn't help but continued, "Speaking of which, there is an open space at the foot of the barren hills of the Mo family. I pushed to build a row of houses, which is a lot of work, if there is someone in the village who knows how to do it, I would like to hand over the matter to the villagers, and it will be my heart."
"It's a good feeling!" Uncle De's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a lot of work, so that about all the people in the village didn't have to go to the city to go to work in the early morning. "I dare not say anything else, repairing the house There is no one who is more knowledgeable about this matter than our village! You know the Wu family at the head of the village, right? Boss Wu and his brothers specialize in doing this! Anyone with a little background in our village takes over the work in his hands."
"Don't talk about repairing the house, just making furniture in the house, close to the old Liu's family at the far end. Three generations of ancestors were carpenters. The third son of Liu is even a good carpenter. Most of the tricky things in our village Most of the carpentry work is done by him. Even many shops in the city have come to invite him to work."
The more Uncle De talked, the more excited he was, and he almost rushed to break through all the various jobs that the villagers would do.Mo Bai has been listening quietly, echoing a few words from time to time, waiting for the conversation to come to an end, and the matter is settled seven or eight times, and the rest depends on how he talks to those people.
After talking about this, Mo Bai mentioned his real purpose of coming here, "Speaking of this, I actually have a job in hand, but I still have to see if Uncle De and the big guys nod."
After what happened just now, Uncle De's heart was still surging, and he immediately decided, "There's nothing difficult about this, just say it, Young Master Mo!"
Mo Bai was not so optimistic, he smiled, "That's right, I want to dig a pond near the edge of the field and plant some lotus roots, but lotus roots must be kept in running water to be delicious, right? Next to it is the lower section of the Xiangyang River, so I thought about connecting the pond to the river, so that it would not affect the water supply in the village. How does Uncle De look?"
"This..." Uncle De was really stumped this time, when he thought of the bold words he had just put down just now, his face was a little embarrassed for a while, but he really couldn't say anything in agreement.After all, rivers are the basis of survival for the entire village, so he dare not lie.
Mo Bai naturally also saw his embarrassment, and immediately said, "Of course, the section of the river that digs the pond should be my contract, and how to calculate the price depends entirely on the village. After all, this pond is shared by the village. You can't let Uncle De be too difficult. But for this matter, you have to ask Uncle De to help talk to the village. Whether it can be done or not depends entirely on God's will." To put it bluntly, it is resigned to fate.
Uncle De nodded when he heard the words, but he didn't finish his sentence, "Let me think about it later."
"Then I would like to thank Uncle De first."
After saying this, the matter was revealed again.Mobai chatted with Uncle De for a while, and then described to him intentionally or unintentionally his vision for the future of the village, which made Uncle De feel overwhelmed, as if wishing to witness a miracle right away.
Seeing that his goal had almost been achieved, he argued with Uncle De for a while, until someone in the room came to look for him and said he had something to report, and then he said goodbye to Uncle De with a sorry face.
It was Qiu Shi who came to him.
Before leaving the house, he mentioned to Qiu Shi that he wanted to find Li Zheng, and he also mentioned that if there was something wrong at home, just go over there and look for him.
According to Qiu Shi's brain, he presumably understood what he meant.
Sure enough, after finishing the business, it didn't take long for Qiu Shi to find him.
On the way, waiting to get away from Lizheng's home, Qiu Shi asked him, "How is the matter going?"
"It's good or bad." Mo Bai said persuasively, "But don't worry, I will mention it later when the villagers are entertained, and they will know what will happen next." After all, it is a way to make money, and he started The salary here is not lower than that in the city, but anyone who can weigh it will not refuse.
Qiu Shi nodded when he heard the words, and stopped asking more questions, and started talking about family affairs.
The two went home all the way, and after eating with Huange Xiaoyu, they didn't go out again. He was going to the city in the future and had a lot of work to do. He didn't want to make himself too tired.It happened that Xiaoyu was going to practice calligraphy in the afternoon, so Mo Bai leaned in the courtyard and explained the main points to the two while watching Qiu.
It was a peaceful afternoon.
After dinner in the evening, he chatted with Xiaoyu for a while, and then went back to their rooms and went to bed early.
******
Early the next morning, Mo Bai got up early, and after getting the house ready, he went out at the same time as Qiu Shi.
Along the way, Qiu Shi chatted and laughed with him, and Mo Bai chatted with him from time to time, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
While he was talking, he suddenly heard a bird call outside, which was soft like a warbler, but suddenly high-pitched, as if flying in the distant sky.
Mo Bai was curious, but he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain but did not see the shadow of the bird, so he couldn't help muttering, "What kind of bird call is this? I don't think I've heard it before."
He stuck out half of his head and searched around in the air, but he still couldn't see half of the bird, and he felt even more curious.And because he was focused on finding the bird, he didn't see the slight change in Qiu Shi's expression behind him.
"It's strange, I only heard the bird's call, but I didn't see half of the bird."
Mo Bai murmured resentfully, put down the curtain and sat back in the carriage, and heard Qiu Shi laughing, "Summer is the time when flowers and birds are alive, I'm afraid he happened to pass by."
"I guess so." Mo Bai nodded when he heard the words, and quickly put the matter behind him.
The carriage traveled another way, and soon arrived in Anle City.
Waiting to enter the city, Mo Bai still asked the coachman to park the carriage in the alley where the east and west streets meet.After agreeing with Qiu Shi to wait for him in the carriage after buying the elixir, Mo Bai got out of the car and walked towards the East Street, intending to deliver the food first, and Qiu Shi followed closely to order the elixir.
After parting ways, Mo Bai went straight to East Street, while Qiu Shi turned around and turned into an alley.It was only after walking into the alley for a while that he stopped again, turned back and watched Mo Bai walk into the Lingyin Pavilion in the shadow of the alley, and then left in a flash.
******
When Mo Bai entered the Lingyin Pavilion, the doorman who was outside showed a rare expression of surprise, and hurried over to welcome him to his seat, and then called the shopkeeper to come over quickly.
And when he heard that Mo Bai was coming, the shopkeeper became even more exaggerated, he threw the receipt in his hand, and then flashed out from the counter, with that posture, he even used his spiritual energy.
"Mr. Mo, you're finally here. If you don't come, my Lingyin Pavilion will be ruined."
Mo Bai smiled and called Shopkeeper Jin, "Shopkeeper, are you all right?"
"Hey, if you don't come again, I'm afraid I'll be out of trouble." Shopkeeper Jin sat down on the seat next to him, and suddenly paused, "Mr. Mo, is this...a pill formation?" I thought that this young man could grow such a good spiritual vegetable, I am afraid that his cultivation is just a deception, but the breath in front of him...
"Yes. Let the shopkeeper make a joke." Mo Bai agreed with a smile, "I got a pill and ended up lying in bed for several days. No, I came here as soon as I recovered."
The shopkeeper opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to say, "...Congratulations, congratulations."
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Mo Bai responded generously, then turned to talk about the business, "Today, I actually have something else I want to discuss with the shopkeeper."
"I'm afraid the shopkeeper has heard the rumors in the city some time ago?" Seeing the shopkeeper's nod, Mo Bai said again, "Actually, this matter is not groundless, and I did let it out. The shopkeeper knows I think the shopkeepers have also heard about the fact that those restaurants on the East Street are quietly guarding the small teahouses every day."
"Mr. Mo has something to say, but it's okay to say it."
"Then I'll get straight to the point. I will definitely do business on the East Street, but as I said before, I will definitely supply Lingyin Pavilion and Lingchu Tianxia according to the previous order quantity."
"The shopkeeper signed a contract with me earlier, ordering [-] catties of each variety of spiritual vegetables from the Mo family. I just want to ask, is the quantity of the shopkeeper still increasing? If not, then we will deliver goods according to this quantity in the future."
"Add, add, how can we not increase. I still think it's too little."
Mo Bai nodded, "Since we want to add more, then we have an argument. My delivery capacity is limited here, and I definitely can't load too much. At most, each of them can load an extra one hundred catties."
"But if the shopkeeper is willing to pick up the goods by himself, then I agree to increase the order quantity by [-] catties each, for a total of [-] catties. After that, if there is still money left in the library, the shopkeeper can also buy another one, but the price Naturally, it will be more expensive than what you ordered, and the price is the same as outside. What do you think of the shopkeeper?"
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment. Although he felt that this method is feasible, he still had some concerns, "Where is Mr. Mo's warehouse? If I pick up the goods, where will my people go to find you?"
"I haven't bought a warehouse yet, but I plan to buy a store in the city in the next two days, and I will also send people over to manage the spiritual food." Mo Bai added, "I will choose the store I bought. Around East-West Street, it’s convenient to be close.”
"That's very good." The shopkeeper responded after hearing the words, "Then I'll wait for news from Mr. Mo. But should I also confirm the delivery date? It's not good for me to wait here like a headless chicken. .”
"That's natural. Shopkeeper, let's see how it goes. From now on, you will go to the store to pick up the goods every few days. At that time, I will ask someone to count them in advance, and you can take them away after inspection."
Ten days is not too long, it's almost like a round of spirit vegetables is sold out.The shopkeeper nodded in response, and mentioned some other details. After the two had agreed, they signed a new contract and sold the spiritual vegetables brought today to Lingyin Pavilion according to the specifications in the new contract.
As for the fresh lotus root, since it was summer, Shopkeeper Jin asked for an extra thousand catties.
After waiting for the money and goods to settle, Mo Bai left the Lingyin Pavilion and turned to the Lingchu Tianxia on the East Street.
And waiting for him to go out, another person appeared in the lobby of Lingyin Pavilion on his back. Xin Chang's body was wrapped in a purple brocade robe, standing in the corner watching Mo Bai go away, and then gradually came out of the shadows .
Looking carefully, it was Qiu Shi who said earlier that he was going to buy the elixir.
