An Ziqi's ancient life

An Ziqi took his medicinal materials and went to the town with An Zimin. An Ziqin was going to stay at home to take care of Mrs. Zhao.

An Zimin was like a bird out of the cage, chirping non-stop along the way.

"Brother, are there really any monkey trickers in town? There are also sugar figures. I've seen Shuanzi eat it before, but I don't know how to do it?" An Zimin tugged on An Ziqi's sleeve, his little face full of longing.

"When I sell my things, I'll buy you sugar figurines, buns, toys, whatever you want." An Ziqi looked at An Zimin with pity. Poor An Zimin was seven years old. Never out of the village, or into town!There was nothing prosperous in the town, but An Zimin watched it with great interest.

"In the future, I will take you to the county town and the prefectural city to play, it's really beautiful there!"

"Yeah! I believe in brother." An Zimin nodded vigorously.

An Ziqi dragged An Zimin directly to Jisheng Hall.

The young man already recognized An Ziqi, and led him directly to the inner room, invited them to sit down, and made two more bowls of tea.

"You are An Wulang, right! Mr. Li has something to do these few days, so he has gone back to his hometown." The shopkeeper Chen of Jishengtang probably had already been instructed by Mr. Li, and he did not despise An Ziqi's two children.

"We're not here to find Langzhong Li, we're here to do business," An Ziqi said.

"Oh..." shopkeeper Chen was a little surprised, he thought that An Ziqi was here to ask Li Langzhong for a visit, or to ask Li Langzhong to learn from him. "I don't know what kind of business Goro wants to do." When shopkeeper Chen mentioned business, he became shrewd.

"Then let shopkeeper Chen take a look over it first!" An Ziqi placed a cloth bag on the table.

Shopkeeper Chen glanced at An Ziqi, then at the cloth bag, and opened it directly, "This..." Shopkeeper Chen took a closer look, "It's really 500-year-old ginseng." Shopkeeper Chen was a little excited.

Maybe 500-year-old ginseng is not a precious thing in the city, but in this small town, it is already considered high-grade.

"Would Goro really want to sell this? This is a precious thing, and there are certainly not too few things that are life-threatening." Shopkeeper Chen has put away the excitement on his face.Although the excitement just now was only for a moment, it was still caught by An Ziqi.

"Of course, my mother also ate a 500-year-old ginseng from Langzhong Li. I heard that it was a treasure in Langzhong's box!" An Ziqi was a little moved when he thought of the ginseng that Langzhong Li gave him back then.

Shopkeeper Chen rubbed his fingers on the table, "Since you want to sell, I'll give you a real price! 80 taels of silver." Shopkeeper Chen said resolutely, as if the price he gave was already topped.

"Shopkeeper Chen," An Ziqi laughed, "Business is also about honesty and good faith. It's easy to make money. It's too stingy to want to take away my 80-year-old ginseng that was just unearthed and in perfect condition for 500 taels of silver. !" An Ziqi pointed at the ginseng, "This is a whole ginseng with not a single beard missing or damaged!"

Shopkeeper Chen looked at it carefully again, and it was indeed in perfect condition as An Ziqi said.

"This...then I'll increase it to 85 taels!" Shopkeeper Chen said heartbroken.

"Since the shopkeeper has no sincerity in doing business, let's go to another place! Jishitang should give you a satisfactory price." An Ziqi put away the ginseng on the table at the speed that shopkeeper Chen couldn't react, and greeted An Zimin and asked Let's go, Ji Shi Tang is Ji Sheng Tang's old rival.

An Zimin sat obediently on the chair the whole time, without speaking, and left as soon as he was asked.

"Hey! You child, the price is negotiable, come back, come back," shopkeeper Chen hurriedly called An Ziqi back.

An Ziqi came back "reluctantly".

"Hey, young man, don't be so impulsive! Come, have tea and snacks." Shopkeeper Chen greeted them.

An Ziqi picked up the tea bowl, saw that there were a lot of miscellaneous things in the bowl, and he lost the desire to drink tea.In this day and age, tea is not clear tea, but tea soup, with some tangerine peel and peanut seasoning in it, An Ziqi couldn't drink any of it, so he touched his lips meaningfully.

Picking up a piece of dim sum, An Zimin saw that his brother touched it, so he picked up the dim sum and gnawed on it. These are the signature dim sum of Meimeizhai, and they are very expensive.An Zimin knew it because he had seen An Zihui eat it. At that time, he was drooling just looking at it. When An Zihui found out, she scolded a greedy ghost and went into the house with the snacks. She was so ashamed. An Zimin couldn't lift his head for a long time.

In the end, An Ziqi and shopkeeper Chen debated for a long time, and finally settled on 120 taels of ginseng, and took out three snake galls. The snake is a highly poisonous coral snake, and galls are naturally precious. two.An Ziqi stopped digging out things, there were too many holes.

"Wulang, there are still good products in the future, we must send them here!" Shopkeeper Chen gave An Ziqi a 100 tael silver note, two silver ingots weighing five taels, three taels of broken silver, and two copper coins. This is what An Ziqi requested.

"From now on, if you find good things on the mountain, you will definitely send them to Jishengtang!" An Ziqi accepted the money and agreed with satisfaction.

Taking An Zimin out of the Jisheng Hall, An Zimin was still dazed, "Brother! We have money, a lot of money! We can buy a lot of things!" An Zimin was very excited.

"That's right! We want to buy land and repair houses! But, let's go buy sugar figurines first!" An Ziqi took An Zimin's little hand and went to the bustling market.

An Ziqi spent five Wen to buy An Zimin a candy figure of a little monkey, and spent another two Wen to buy a bunch of candied haws. An Zimin held one in each hand, so happy that he couldn't bear to eat it.

"If you don't eat, I won't buy you dim sum buns later!" An Ziqi threatened An Zimin.

"I'll eat! I'll eat!" An Zimin hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth.Um!So sweet and delicious! "Brother, don't you want to eat?" An Zimin lifted the candied haws to An Ziqi's mouth.

"Brother doesn't like this. I save my stomach to eat big meat buns." An Ziqi supported An Zimin's shoulders, and walked slowly to the alley where there were few people.

"Boss! They're going to Xiaoliu Lane!" A wretched man with a mischievous eyebrow said quietly to a big man beside him.

"Shut up! I can see it!" The big man slapped the head of the person next to him, "Follow them, don't lose them, and I will find a few brothers to block them, and don't let them run away."

The man who was beaten covered his head and said aggrievedly, "Brother, it's just two kids, we can handle it with just two of us, why did you call so many brothers?"

"I don't know what you're thinking, don't you want to steal those little bastards for yourself? You're so fast. If you didn't get run away last time, you won't learn your lesson!" the big man exclaimed angrily.

"Oh! Alright." The man responded in a low voice.

"I'm looking for two more brothers, you look good." The big man left after speaking.

It turned out that An Ziqi and the others had just left the Jishengtang. When An Zimin was talking excitedly, he was overheard by Zhang San who was passing by. The trick, of course, is to find soft persimmons to start with, and dare not mess around with the hard ones, for fear of being caught and tied with ropes and sent to the government.

Zhang San discussed with his elder brother Wang Ermazi about "robbing the rich and helping the poor". He saw that An Ziqi and the others were just two children, and they could do it, so he decided to make a fortune.

Wang Ermazi went to call his brother, he is the boss of this street, and he still has a few gangsters under his command, last time a half-grown kid slipped into his and Zhang San's hands, so he treated the kid Knowing enough about his escape skills, he didn't dare to be careless anymore.

An Ziqi had already discovered that they were being followed, and had carefully confirmed that they were not the kind of experts in martial arts novels who could pick leaves and hurt others. Thinking of An Zimin's neglect of safety, he decided to give An Zimin a lesson in safety education. class, so as to urge him to practice martial arts.An Zimin has already started squatting and running with sandbags under An Ziqi's request, but his awareness of prevention is not high enough, so he should study hard.

An Ziqi doesn't know if there are really masters who practice internal energy and light kung fu in this era, but he is not afraid of them all. With enough seeds, he has the chips to escape safely, and he is not afraid of anything.

"Brother, how did we get here!" An Zimin looked at the increasingly desolate streets, feeling a little scared.

"This is a shortcut, we're going to Jinxiu Hall to buy some cloth and go back, just to save some time." An Ziqi said lightly, "Why, Zimin, are you scared?"

"No..." An Zimin looked back, "Brother, I always feel like someone is following us." An Zimin still told his discovery.

"Oh, why are you following us?" An Ziqi asked.

"Could it be a human trafficker?" An Zimin shuddered, "Brother, I heard that the human traffickers are going to sell the children of my beloved family into slaves! Let's hurry up!" An Zimin pulled An Ziqi's clothes, urging him to leave quickly .

An Ziqi still walked slowly, "Then tell me, apart from human traffickers, what else do those people see in us? Our clothes are also worn out, and we don't belong to rich people at first glance. Why are they thinking about us?"

An Zimin was very anxious, but he still tried to think of the reason. Suddenly, he became annoyed, "Brother, could it be that someone else found out about our money?" An Zimin patted his forehead, looking remorseful, "It's all my fault. !" An Zimin had tears in his eyes, and hurriedly pulled An Ziqi away.

"It's good to know the reason. In the future, you need to be careful. Not everyone is good. You have to think about the consequences before doing anything." An Ziqi began to educate his younger brother.The corner of Zhang San's mouth twitched when he heard it.

"Brother, let's go faster!" An Zimin would rather go out first before listening to his brother.

"Why else?" An Ziqi asked.It turned out that they accidentally strayed into a dead end.

Zhang San jumped out from the corner, "Little bastard, you know that the uncle is behind you, but you still talk to your brother in a long way, hurry up and hand over the money!"
