Lord of Puluo

Chapter 54 The Yu Family’s Arrival

Li Banfeng wants money, one thousand yuan!

Okay, okay... Xiao Yeci quickly took out a thousand cash from the wicker box and gave it to Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng counted it twice and put it in his inner pocket.

After saying goodbye, Xiao Yeci and his daughter went to the old house of the He family, and Li Banfeng went to the Yu family for a wedding.

Yu Nan, the owner of Huazhizhaozhan's cloth shop, came up to him: Are you buying cloth? Come here and take a look. This is replica satin and Ku satin. There are also Ning silk and Huaxianchun here, and flower yarn and Hangluo. There are also Hangzhou textile and Huzhou crepe, which one do you like?

This shop sells silk and satin, but Li Banfeng doesn't want to buy cloth, and he doesn't know how to cut it.

Yu Nan talked for a long time, but when he saw that Li Banfeng was not moved, he turned to ask: Do you want to buy ready-made clothes? We have tailors here. If you don't like the ready-made clothes, we can make one for you.

Li Banfeng shook his head: I don't buy clothes either.

Yu Nan bit the slender cigarette rod, remained silent for a moment, and then said with a smile: Are you going to buy a silk handkerchief?

Not buying.

Are you buying a quilt?

Not buying.

You want to buy a bed curtain?

Not buying.

Yu Nan took a puff of his cigarette and frowned, Then what do you want to buy?

Buy cigarettes.

Li Banfeng smelled the smoke and thought it was pretty good.

Yu Nan blinked his big eyes and confirmed again: Are you coming to our cloth store to buy cigarettes?

Don't you have a cigarette? Yu Nan was smoking, and Li Banfeng felt that his idea was reasonable.

Yu Nan's face darkened slightly: Are you deliberately entertaining me?

Li Banfeng didn't quite understand the meaning of entertainment: Should I sell it or not?

After a long silence, Yu Nan turned to the waiter and said, Bring two packs of Big Fairies and give them to this customer.

Big Fairy, a very famous women's cigarette in Prozhou.

The clerk brought two bags, and Li Banfeng put them in his pocket.

How much?

Yu Nan smiled: No need to pay, I'll give it to you.

This man is so cheerful, but Li Banfeng never asks for other people's things for free.

Make me a suit and choose a good material.

Yu Nan shook his head: We don't sell Western clothes.

This store only sells traditional clothing.

Li Banfeng looked at the ready-made clothes hanging in the shop, pointed at a piece of clothing and said, I want this... very long dress.

Yu Nan looked back and said with a smile, Do you want a long gown?

Yes, it's a long gown.

Old man! Yu Nan called to the waiter, Bring me a ruler and I will measure this guest carefully.

Yu Nan took matters into his own hands and measured Li Banfeng's body. While measuring, he asked, What do you call the guest?

My surname is Li, and I am the seventh eldest child. Li Banfeng reported Li Qi's name as usual, and then asked, What do you call the boss's wife?

The little girl's surname is Yu, and her name is only a male character. Master Qi, if you think highly of me, please call me shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Yu doesn't like to be called the boss lady, because she is the owner of this cloth shop and it is her own shop.

It turns out to be shopkeeper Yu. I'm disrespectful. Li Banfeng imitated the local tone and greeted Yu Nan with a few polite words.

Yu Nan was squatting down to measure Li Banfeng's waist. He raised his head with bright eyes and smiled at Li Banfeng: Master Qi, where do you live? The clothes are ready and sent to you.

I just came to Ligou. Li Banfeng said perfunctorily.

Shopkeeper Yu took a measuring tape and measured Li Banfeng's legs again: A few days ago, I saw that you came to Feng Ji Grocery Store to buy a lot of things.

What this means is that you have not just arrived in Ligou, I have already noticed you.

Li Banfeng didn't deny it either: I come and go in a hurry, and I don't have a fixed place to live.

Then how can I give you the clothes?

I'll pick it up in three days. You can help me choose the fabric and calculate the price first.

Yu Nan chose a medium-to-high-quality piece of silk for Li Banfeng, fiddled with it with an abacus for a while, and asked, Are you going to use Huan Guo banknotes or foreign money? We'll accept it even if it's half opened.

Li Banfeng didn't know what half-opening meant, but he had a lot of foreign money, and he wanted to know the exchange rules of the foreign money.

How much does it cost in foreign money.

Work and materials together, a piece of ocean.

Where is Huan Guo's banknote?

Yu Nan was stunned: One ocean can be exchanged for five hundred Huan national banknotes. I don't need to tell you this.

Five hundred yuan for a set of clothes, not to mention in Yaowanggou, even in Yuezhou, was a bit luxurious for Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng took out a piece of gold, plus two hundred Huan notes, and handed it to Yu Nan.

Yu Nan was waiting for Li Banfeng to counter-offer, but found that he had given him two hundred more: What do you mean?

She thought Li Banfeng wanted 700 to buy two pieces.

This cannot be sold, the price is too high.

Li Banfeng said: I can buy clothes with a piece of ocean and two hundred Huan notes. I'm asking Shopkeeper Yu to handle something. If there is any news about Shopkeeper Feng in the past few days, please let me know.

Yu Nan smiled: This is a small matter, no money is needed.

After saying that, Yu Nan returned the two hundred Huan notes to Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng waved his hand: Just accept it, I want to make you my friend.

For Li Banfeng, if you don't give people money, you don't have the qualifications to let them do things.

Yu Nan appreciated Li Banfeng's straightforwardness, took the money, and said to Li Banfeng in a low voice: If you are not satisfied with the clothes, you can return them or replace them. There is another thing, I don't know whether I should tell you.

new

Shopkeeper, please speak.

A friend who came to Ligou with you before asked for food at Weiwei Hutong. I'm afraid he won't be able to survive for a few days.

The friend who came with me?

Which friend?

That honest and strong friend.

Fatty Qin?

Li Banfeng was stunned.

Qin Xiaopang's family is not rich, but he is not so poor that he has to beg for food.

What's more, he also got eleven snake-spotted pills. In Puluo Prefecture, as long as they are not for special purposes, the price is not expensive. One pill sells for 10,000 or 110,000, which is enough for Xiaopang to be famous for a while.

How could he be asking for food?

Is there some reason here? Li Banfeng felt that the situation might be a bit complicated.

Yu Nan looked around and lowered his voice: Master Qi, it seems that your friend has offended the Geng family medicine store because of selling elixirs.

The people from the medicine shop threw him into the street and found someone to guard him and let him starve to death. The Geng family medicine shop had contacts with Jiang Xianggang, so this was something they often did.

Hearing this, Li Banfeng thought for a moment and asked, Is the person guarding him a cultivator?

Yu Nan nodded: He is a cultivator, and he used to have some issues with me.

What sect, what cultivation level?

The cultivation level is not high, but the Taoist sect is special. Yu Nan blew out a puff of smoke on the counter, and the smoke changed into the word oil and then dissipated.

This woman can freely control smoke. Li Banfeng asked in a low voice: Are you a smoke cultivator?

Yu Nan smiled and didn't answer.

Li Banfeng asked again: Are you taking the initiative to talk to me today so that I can help you get revenge?

Yu Nan smiled and said: I didn't say anything, but if Master Qi wants to save your friend, the shop is willing to help.

Li Banfeng frowned and said, Is this considered cooperation? Why are you looking for me?

Yu Nan said: Because Boss Qin is a friend of Master Qi, and Master Qi is a capable man.

Li Banfeng did not deny the matter of friends: How do you know I am capable?

Yu Nan blew out a puff of smoke: Anyone who can come back alive from Kuwu Mountain has real abilities.

This woman seems to have been targeting me for a long time.

Li Banfeng thought for a long time.

Fatty is in trouble.

Should I help him?

Li Banfeng didn't owe Xiaopang anything. Even if he owed him before, he would pay it back afterwards.

But he was starving to death.

When Li Banfeng was hungry, Xiaopang treated him to two bowls of Yangchun noodles.

Weiwei Hutong is a relatively closed alley. There are old houses on both sides of the alley, and all of them live in poor families.

During the day, there were not many pedestrians passing by the alley. In the evening, the number of pedestrians gradually increased. Qin Xiaopang, who was kneeling on the ground and dying, opened his eyes.

Dusk is his last hope for survival.

A passerby saw him in tattered clothes and covered with wounds. He felt really pitiful and threw half a piece of cake to him.

Xiaopang reached out to pick it up.

Beside him, a man wearing a mandarin jacket and a felt hat stepped on the pancake.

Did I let you eat it? The man in the jacket looked down at Qin Xiaopang and spat in his face.

Xiaopang said nothing and took his hand back.

A passerby couldn't stand it, so he stepped forward and asked, Hero, what can you do for a beggar?

The man in the mantle raised his head, his left eyebrow sank, his right eyebrow raised, his mouth tilted, showing a standard scoundrel smile: What the hell does it have to do with you?

The passerby still wanted to argue, but a woman next to him pulled him aside: Don't mind your own business. This is the Geng Family Medicine Store's prestige. Let's go quickly.

When they heard that it was the Geng Family Medicine Store, the passers-by didn't say anything more and walked quickly.

The man in the mandarin jacket trampled the pancake on the ground to pieces and kicked it far away.

Xiaopang lowered his head and closed his eyes.

He is a food cultivator. If he doesn't eat for one day, he may starve to death.

Yesterday he ate half a bowl of cold, rotten rice and survived.

I haven't eaten anything since today, I'm afraid I won't be able to endure it anymore.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t stand it any longer. If you starve to death, you will be liberated.

With Curie at home, Li Banfeng is waiting for the bronze lotus.

A person who has been hungry will never forget the person who gave him food.

Maybe some people will forget, but Li Banfeng will not.

Li Banfeng glanced at the record player: Madam, I gave you food, you can't forget me!

Chichi~

The record player sobbed twice and sang with a cry: Hey, my husband, marry a man, marry a man, wear clothes and eat, the slave serves the husband diligently, and gives the slave a mouthful of food, does the husband still feel sorry for me? Not to mention the previous ones. The food is no longer fresh.”

What she said made Li Banfeng feel ashamed.

I have to think of a way to buy something fresh for my wife.

But before buying groceries, you have to bring all your equipment.

If the dagger that drinks blood is eaten by the lotus, at least one rust pill can be made.

Although Li Banfeng already had a rust pill, he always felt at ease with one more pill.

Strange, why is the lotus alchemy so slow today?
