Kite falling into red dust

The boy said again: "Then do you want to directly modify your original face, or make a human skin mask?"

Nangong Chen said: "What is a human skin mask?"

The boy said: "It's just a mask made of human skin, and it's no different from the original face when it is pasted on the human face."

Obviously the latter is better, "Then I'll make a human skin mask."

The boy turned his head and looked at the masked man.The man beckoned to him lightly, and he ran over immediately.The man leaned against his ear and whispered something.

The boy took the painting in his hand and showed it to Nangongchen, "Is it just like this?"

Nangong Chen said: "It doesn't have to be exactly the same, just try to be as similar as possible."

The boy smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with being exactly the same. My brother can make it even more perfect than the one on this painting."

"That would be great," he looked at the masked man, "I'll thank you first, sir." The man only gave him a faint look with a pair of black eyes, and didn't respond.

The boy said: "Thank you, no need, let's clarify the price first: the price of a human skin mask is 200 taels of gold, plus [-] pearls. You need to pay half of the deposit first, that is, [-] taels of gold and [-] pearls." ; and pay the remaining half when it is delivered."

Nangongchen frowned, "It's so expensive? Can't it be cheaper?" Xiao Zhu, who was adding spices to the incense burner, suddenly laughed, and said, "Master, if this is a vegetable market, can you still bargain? Can you You know, how expensive are the raw materials for making human skin masks? Just the price of that piece of skin is more than a hundred taels of gold!"

The boy said lightly: "You don't have to, but the price cannot be reduced."

At this time, Nan Gongchen felt extremely regretful, as the son of Nan Gongze's family, the royal censor at the time, it was not impossible for him to take out 200 taels of gold and [-] pearls, but he had to ask such a question.As a result, he, a handsome seven-foot boy, was teased by two dolls whose hair had not faded until his ears turned red, and he hurriedly said, "It's not that I want to bargain, but I didn't bring so much with me today. Please let me go home for a while." Let’s go, and the deposit will be delivered to the mansion tomorrow.”

The masked man suddenly leaned over and whispered something in the boy's ear, then turned and left the hall.

The boy said immediately: "If you have nothing else to do, please leave first. We'll talk after the deposit is paid."

On the way back, Nangongchen laughed wordlessly.Not for anything else, just for those two powerful dolls.Whether it was taught by adults, or they themselves are like that, they are so smart at a young age, and it must be even more remarkable when they grow up.

When we returned to Nangong Mansion, it was already Youshi.The housekeeper told him that Nangong Jin was staying in the barracks tonight and would not be coming back.I don't know if he is angry with himself, he hasn't come back for several days.

Nangong Chen sighed, thinking: It's good if he doesn't come back for a while, so as not to have to find a way to explain where he went all day.

Early the next morning, he prepared gold and pearls, made up an excuse to his father, and drove the carriage to Luoshui Town again.

As soon as we met, the gentleman I met yesterday understood the purpose of his trip, and immediately called out loudly: "Xiao Hai!" "Come on!" A boy ran in in response.

Nangong Chen took a closer look, it was the boy who appeared later yesterday. "Go and call your brother." The man said.Xiao Hai glanced at Nan Gongchen, and obediently responded: "Okay!" Then he ran out again in a hurry.

Not long after, Xiaohai returned to the hall holding the hand of a masked man.Although he couldn't see his face, but judging by his figure, he should be the same person as yesterday.

The man stood up, smiled at the masked man, and said, "I still have a patient to see, you can talk about it. Xiaozhu, take the medicine box and follow me!" "Yes, sir!" Xiaozhu's voice came from It's coming from outside.

The masked man nodded to the man and watched him go out.Although you can't see the expression on his face, you can feel that he respects men very much.
