Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 340

Xiaocui found Hu Qian that day.

Secretly said: "Li Ping'er asked me to invite the master to have a drink in the evening, and discuss in detail about the purchase of clothing stores."

Hu Qian asked: "Has she agreed?"

Xiao Cui said: "I agreed, but not fully.

I just invite the master to have a drink at night, and we need to talk about it in detail.

At that time, the master must hold on to his airs and calm down, so as not to be taken advantage of by Li Ping'er. "

Hu Qian said: "I understand this."

Xiaocui added: "As long as the master is calm, he won't worry about not being able to buy it, and the price will be very low.

Li Ping'er will also promise some benefits to the master. "

Hu Qian asked, "What are the benefits?"

Xiaocui said: "I don't know the details, but the master will know when the time comes."

In the evening, Hu Qian closed the shop door and told Brother Yun to stay in the house. Then he changed his clothes and went to the back door of Li Ping'er's house.

According to the agreement, I knocked on the secret signal of three longs, two shorts, three longs and one short, and a voice came from behind the door: "Is this a member of the Wu Daguan?"

Hu Qian coughed softly, "Yes."

The door opened slowly, and Xiao Cui came out to welcome her, "Master, please come in, the lady has already prepared the food and drinks."

Going through the hall and corridor, we went around twice and arrived at the main room.

Before entering the door, I smelled a fragrance.

When he entered the room, he saw a petite beauty standing there. When he saw Hu Qian coming in, he smiled slightly and said: "This must be the master of the Wu family, I'm so polite."

She has black temples, curved eyebrows, light eyes, sweet mouth, nose augmentation, red cheeks, pink face, curly body, beautiful hands, and twisted waist.

Seeing that Hu Qian moved his index finger.

However, as soon as she bent down, the smile on her face disappeared immediately, replaced by an unconcealable disgust.

He thought Hu Qian didn't see it, but he didn't know that because Wu Dalang was born short, he could see all of this completely.

But Hu Qian didn't have a seizure either. After all, this Wu Dalang was born like this. Not to mention that it was uncomfortable for others to see, even if he himself saw the charcoal-like complexion, the skin like dead tree bark, and the yellowish die in the black Can't help but feel very disgusted.

This is because he has to brush for nearly half an hour every time he gets up, which makes him feel better.

"Young lady is polite, I am Wu Dalang."

The two sat down first and second, while Xiao Cui stood aside, smoke lingered from the sandalwood incense burner, and as there was no wind in the room, they both floated straight up.

Li Ping'er was born flirtatious, before marrying Hua Zixu, she was Liang Zhongshu's concubine after all, and she has always been a person who has seen the world.

The conversation was also quite interesting, so I casually talked about some local customs in Tokyo, and asked Wu Dalang about his soap business.

"Speaking of it is also fate.

Ever since Dalang made this soap, my family has bought some of it almost every time.

Speaking of it, he can be regarded as a frequent customer of Dalang's soap shop. "

Hu Qian smiled and said, "Thank you so much, my lady."

Li Ping'er continued, "This soap is fifty cents a piece. Besides, there is only one shop in a hundred miles around. I don't know anything else. The price is not low. Dalang must have earned a lot of money because of it."

Hu Qian said: "It is true that some money has been earned, but it is still much worse than that of the lady's family."

Li Ping'er said again: "What did Da Lang say, I think Da Lang should also know that my clothing store has been closed down by the government.

My master has now been sent to a big prison, often struggling to survive.

It's really hard, and it can't compare to Dalang Wanyi. "

Hu Qian said, "My lady is too polite."

The two talked around for a while, but neither of them mentioned the matter of the tailor shop.

Li Ping'er is waiting for the Wuhan University to mention it first, so that he can grasp some initiative and take the opportunity to ask for a high price, while Hu Qian is holding his breath, and wants the other party to mention it first, and take the opportunity to kill her spirit.

Get it at the lowest price possible.

After waiting for a while, it was Li Ping'er who did not hold his breath after all.

He said, "Actually, I invited Dalang to come here this time. Firstly, I wanted to meet this strange man who made soap, and I also heard that Dalang was a god who came down to earth, and he was the king of Taiyi who saved suffering!
The ordinary people of my family have never seen any gods, so I also want to open my eyes.

Another point is that the master of the slave family is now in prison, and his family's savings and expenses are exhausted, so he really can't afford to save him, so this time I invited Da Lang to come here to sell the clothing store next to the soap shop. Give it to Da Lang, so that he can collect money to save my master. "

Wu Dalang said with a smile, "Since that's the case, why didn't my lady say earlier that I, Wu Dalang, have no other skills but a kind heart.

If you see others in trouble, tears will flow out.

What's more, I am a god who came down to earth, Taiyi saves the suffering Ming King, and specializes in helping those poor people who are suffering. "

Li Ping'er nodded and said, "What Dalang said is very true, and the slave family thinks the same way.

It's just that the slave family knows little about the gods and bodhisattvas, so the slave family can only come to ask Da Lang for help. "

After speaking, it seemed intentional and doubtful, and opened the neckline.

He fanned it with the other hand and said, "It's strange to say that it's a little hot in the room."

Hu Qian glanced at it, feeling his heart beating violently.

I couldn't help swallowing.

Li Ping'er said, "Xiao Cui hastened to pour wine for Da Lang.

Xiao Cui responded, walked to the front in two steps, held the silver pot in her hand, poured a cup into Hu Qian's cup, and poured another for Li Ping'er.

Li Ping'er said: "My family is too strong to drink, please ask Xiao Cui to replace it."

As he spoke, he poured himself another cup of tea and said, "My family uses tea instead of wine, please!"

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and gestured to Hu Qian.

Hu Qian said: "Why is this tea so fragrant, lady? Where is the tea from?"

Li Ping'er said: "This tea was originally bought by my master from Lingnan, it is very precious, it is the authentic Yuqian Longjing."

While she was bowing her head to speak, Hu Qian had already poured the wine in his cup into his sleeve.

Then he nodded, tilted his neck at her, and drank the wine. Li Ping'er saw him sticking out the bottom of the glass, and drank it down in one gulp.

But Xiao Cui was hesitant.

Li Ping'er glared at her, and she drank it.

"There is one more thing to invite Da Lang this time, and that is to ask Da Lang to buy the tailor shop."

Hu Qian said, "Young lady should also know that the tailor shop has been sealed up by the county magistrate.

Besides, Mr. Hua is currently in prison, and it is not known who owns this shop until the end. If he bought it, it would be a waste of money. "

"Don't worry Dalang.

When the slave's family sold the garment shop and got the money, they immediately went to the county government office to manage it. My master had already taken advantage of the right time and place.

Coupled with the up and down management, you will definitely win the lawsuit. At that time, the clothing store must be yours, and it will not fall into the hands of others.

If you buy it sincerely, the slave family will be the master at this time and sell it to officials at a price of [-]%. "

Hu Qian still shook his head.

The price of [-]% seems cheap, but if you can't get it in your hands in the end, it will still be nothing.

Seeing that he refused to let go for a long time, Li Ping'er said, "Don't think too easily, Dalang, if it wasn't for this time, even if you paid a high price for this tailor shop, my family would not sell it.

Now it is cheap to you, you still keep the price down like this, it is inevitable that you are suspected of taking advantage of others, besides, you are not claiming that the gods descended from the earth, it is Taiyi who saves the suffering Ming King, and specializes in helping the poor, why are you so evasive now? "

Hu Qian laughed.

"I am indeed King Taiyi who saves suffering, but your family is also well-clothed and well-fed."

As he spoke, he looked around and pointed to the many pieces of furniture.

"Look at one of the things in this house that poor people can afford."

Li Ping'er was at a loss for words, looked at Xiao Cui and said: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you pour wine for Da Lang."

Li Ping'er said: "Since this is the case, there is no righteousness in buying and selling. If the Dalang really doesn't want to, then the servants don't say much, so we can get together and leave."

Hu Qian and Xiao Cui were slightly taken aback.

I didn't expect Li Ping'er to be so decisive, but the words have come to this point, there is nothing to say.

Hu Qian drank the wine in one gulp.

"In that case, Wu will leave."

After speaking, he stood up, turned and walked out.

Li Ping'er said: "Xiao Cui hurry up and send Da Lang off."

When both of them went out, she poked the wine glass and chopsticks used by Hu Qian on the ground with her chopsticks in disgust.

Then he picked up Xiao Cui's wine glass and took it up to smell it.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he poured some of the Chunyi pills he had collected earlier, added some wine, and drank it down in one gulp.

Is it true that the medicine has expired?

Besides, when Hu Qian and Xiao Cui reached the door and were about to go further, Xiao Cui threw herself on Hu Qian and said, "My lord, save me."

Hu Qian didn't speak, but spit out all the sip of wine that he just drank.

I felt a fire rising in my lower abdomen, thinking that there was something in the wine, "What is in this wine, could it be poisoned?"

Xiaocui said: "It's not poisonous, maybe the lady put some aphrodisiacs in it."

Hu Qian supported her and asked, "What's going on?"

Xiaocui said, "The lady told the servants to invite the master to come over, to give the master a little bit of sweetness, to lure the master into buying the tailor shop, but she refused to drink it herself, but asked me to drink it instead.

It seems that they want me to accompany the master for one night, and then use this to catch the master and threaten him to buy the tailor shop. "

Only then did Hu Qian understand.

Xiao Cui said: "Now that my family has drunk this wine, my body feels like it's on fire."

After speaking, he closed his eyes in pain.

Hu Qian quickly hugged her.

When Hu Qian was wondering if he was treating her here, he saw that it was cold again. If Wu Song saw it when he brought it home, he would inevitably say something.

But there is Brother Yun at the soap shop, which is not convenient.

So he put his heart on hold, hugged Xiaocui and went back to the yard behind him.

"Where is the room available?"

At this moment, Xiaocui was a little confused, so she suppressed her restlessness and said, "The one next to the lady..."

Fortunately, I have just walked this road, so I recognize it.

Returning to the room just now, he suddenly heard Li Ping'er's voice faintly coming from the room.

He pushed the door slightly, and looked through the crack of the door, only to see Li Ping'er lying there in extreme pain.

Looking at his complexion, it turned out to be the same as Xiaocui in his arms.

When it was daylight the next day.

Xiao Cui and Li Ping'er gradually woke up, seeing each other lying together, they couldn't help being startled.

Then they all felt a little unwell, and when they looked around, they couldn't find Hu Qian again.

Xiaocui hurriedly got dressed.

He called hot water for her to wash, poured hot tea for her, rinsed her mouth back and forth, and served her breakfast.

Li Ping'er said angrily: "Didn't this dwarf go away! Didn't he come back again?"

Xiao Cui said: "This servant seems to have taken some medicine, but I don't know."

Li Ping'er said bitterly: "He is so cruel, he dared to insult me ​​like this.

If he finds an opportunity, he must chop off all his hands and feet and feed them to the dogs. "

Xiao Cui originally wanted to ask why she gave herself aphrodisiacs, but seeing that Li Ping'er was angry, she knew that now was not the time to ask, and even if she asked, so what, could she ask her for an explanation?
When I walked to the table, I saw a letter on the table. When I opened it, it read:

The clothing store can be negotiated, and the price is subject to the negotiation last night.

In the evening, Hu Qian came over with the money.

At this moment, Xiao Cui was the only one in the main hall, and Li Ping'er was hiding in the inner room.

Hu Qian can only hear her talking, but it is difficult to see her face, but he doesn't care too much, anyway, just buy the clothing store,

As for the county magistrate, let Wu Wusong take care of it a little bit.

It doesn't matter whether Hua Zixu is dead or not, as long as his house and clothing store are under his name.

Li Ping'er got the silver, first kept some for himself, and then wanted to go to the Yamen to get some money, but was stopped by Xiaocui.

"The lady doesn't have any acquaintances in the yamen, so why don't you ask the Wu University to take care of it, not to mention that his younger brother Wu Song is the head of the yamen, which is much more convenient than us talking. Even if the lady has money, she can't stand the yamen. A person who eats people without spitting out their bones."

Li Ping'er said: "What do you mean by that? I think you seem to be a little biased towards Wuhan University recently. Could it be that you are eating inside and outside."

Xiao Cui said: "My family is loyal.

If the lady is unwilling, just be a slave and never say so. "

Li Ping'er raised his hand and slapped her across the face.

"You bitch, you better give me a break. I think you are also a cat who thinks of spring. It's okay if you don't get dirty, but once you do, you're not you anymore. You've been so happy these two days. , if it wasn't for me to watch over you, you would have to go to find the five lovers every few days.

Could it be that he just wanted to climb into his bed?But then again, it makes sense. "

After speaking, he took the silver and asked her to go to Wuda to do business in the yamen.

Xiaocui's face was burning with pain, and she was very humiliated in her heart, but she couldn't attack it, so she had to bring money to find Hu Qian.

Wait until the soap shop to tell the matter.

Then she started crying, and Hu Qian saw that her face was swollen.

When asked why, Xiao Cui refused to tell at first, but was pressed by Hu Qian, and finally she spoke out.

Hu Qian held her in his arms and said, "Be patient for a while longer, I want you to come over in these two days."

Xiaocui's heart warmed, and she hugged him like a cat.

"Thank you, master. If the master is willing, I will find a way to let Li Ping'er serve the master again."
