The moment the curtain of the back kitchen opened, a bloody breath came, Lu Qianyu's nose was the most smart, even if it was a subtle smell, as long as it was the smell of blood, he could smell it, accompanied by a cough, and suddenly a voice shouted: "Slow." ”

Xu Laifeng and Lu Qianyu looked at a man, who was the shopkeeper of the tavern, Xu Laifeng hurriedly jumped down from the chair and said: "It turned out that the shopkeeper came back, I suddenly changed my mind, I have taken a fancy to these paintings, the shopkeeper, if you want to sell, I will definitely not let you suffer, you can make a price." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper heard him say this, he did not blame him for his negligence in tampering with calligraphy and painting, and with the etiquette of the rivers and lakes, he hugged his fists and said: "Two sons, I heard that you want to sell paintings and pay 15,000 taels, is this true?"

Xu Laifeng said: "Naturally, it's true, can we still make fun of the shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper said: "So, now Xu Gongzi, have changed your mind?"

Xu Laifeng said: "In this house, there are a total of eleven paintings, I want them, except for "Tiger Descending the Mountain" and "Fish and Shrimp Playing", the rest of the drawings, each for 5,000 taels, these two for 15,000 taels, a total of 55,000 taels of silver, can I calculate correctly?"

The shopkeeper laughed and said, "If Childe doesn't cheat me, I can only need 40,000 taels, and you can take the paintings here, which can be regarded as making a friend with Childe." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "The shopkeeper is really refreshing, with the demeanor of the Jianghu people, I don't know the shopkeeper, how to call it?"

The shopkeeper said: "Untouchables, just sell your name, don't say it." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "Shopkeeper, I don't want to make friends with us, my name is Xu Shaoqing, this is my friend, Lu Jiutian, our brothers, when we go out, we just like to make friends, shopkeeper, I sell your paintings, just to be able to make friends with you, you do this, it seems that you look down on us." ”

The shopkeeper was speechless for Xu Laifeng, and said: "Xu Gongzi, Lu Gongzi, you just call me Liu Tiehou." ”

Lu Qianyu couldn't help but laugh, and thought to himself: "A dignified eight-foot man is actually called an iron monkey, and I think it's still called a chimpanzee, which is almost the same." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "Shopkeeper, you are a bold person, I will ask for this painting, according to your price, 40,000 taels, you sit." ”

Li Tiehou sat opposite Lu Qianyu, put his hands on his knees, and said, "Then, Childe take the money." ”

Xu Laifeng poured a glass of wine for Li Tiehou and said: "Shopkeeper, we are not busy with the transaction, I heard that the donkey meat buns in your store are good, the proprietress went to do it, we ate the buns and then said, come, I will toast you." ”

Li Tiehou stared at the wine glass sent by Xu Laifeng, his face sank, he took it, put it on the table, and asked: "

Childe, I am a businessman, only when I see the money, can I do business, Xu Gongzi, if you want to buy sincerely, you have to let me see, your sincerity. ”

Lu Qianyu understood, the other party wanted to see the money, and said: "Brother Xu, the shopkeeper is afraid that you don't have money." ”

Xu Laifeng was anxious and said: "I'm just not bad for money, it's just that I went out in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring so much, but this time, I am not in a hurry, I can wait for someone to send money." ”

Li Tiehou's face was solemn and asked: "Xu Gongzi, since you don't have enough money, you can buy one or two first, why do you need to buy them all, my small shop, here, has been open for decades, it is an industry left by my father, can you still run away?"

Xu Laifeng said: "Then I want to ask the shopkeeper, this painting, is it also a family heirloom, I heard the proprietress say, these paintings, but the shopkeeper painted one stroke at a time, that's amazing, I really can't imagine that the shopkeeper is thick and fine, and he is still a painter?"

The shopkeeper said: "What kind of painter, don't wait for the women to talk nonsense, these paintings are my family heirloom." ”

Lu Qianyu said: "That ancestor must be a great man. ”

The shopkeeper didn't want to talk to Lu Qianyu and Xu Laifeng, so he said too much, so he asked directly: "Two sons, how much money did you bring?"

Xu Laifeng said with a smile: "We didn't bring much money this time, it's all here." As he spoke, he untied the money bag, and threw it on the table with a bang.

Li Tiehou looked at the half bag of money, with a greedy look in his eyes, and said, "Then how much is this?"

Xu Laifeng opened the money bag, poured it out, and there were gold ingots, silver ingots, and pearls, but the number was a little less, and said, "Almost five hundred taels." ”

Li Tiehou looked at Lu Qianyu and said, "Five hundred taels, it's not enough, it's not even enough for the deposit, is the money on this friend." ”

Lu Qianyu did have silver money on his body, even a little more than Xu Laifeng, along the way, basically he didn't spend any money, he opened the money bag, counted it, and said, "I have eight hundred taels." ”

Li Tiehou's face immediately changed, and he snorted: "Two sons, all the money added up is only 1,300 taels, I'm afraid I can't even buy half a painting." ”

Xu Laifeng said with a smile: "The money is a little less, but our intentions are very sincere, why don't we wait here for a few days and wait for me to accept and send the money." ”

Li Tiehou said: "Two sons, are you making fun of me?"

Xu Laifeng hurriedly said: "How dare you, how can the two of us make fun of the shopkeeper for no reason." As he spoke, he pressed the stainless steel fan on the table and said, "I don't think it's as good as this, my fan is also quite valuable, so I will mortgage it to you, 50,000 taels, let's not have four."

What do you think, shopkeeper?"

Li Tiehou forcibly suppressed his anger and did not attack, looked at the fan, and said: "This fan is made of steel, it is your weapon, and it doesn't look very valuable." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "Don't worry, this friend of mine still has two swords, each of them, is simply a city, we can exchange the swords, what does the shopkeeper think?" As he spoke, Lu Qianyu slapped Luo Ying and Gu Han on the table.

Li Tiehou couldn't bear it anymore, slapped the table and stood up, and shouted: "You two, I don't know where you are sacred, but when you come to this realm, please put down your body, I, Li Tiehou, am not easy to mess with." ”

Xu Laifeng learned from Li Tiehou's appearance, slapped the table and got up, and shouted: "Li Tiehou, what kind of person are you and me, I was originally Xu Laifeng of Shujian Villa, you are a small wilderness shop, where did you get the precious paintings, you are clearly a black shop, now admit it, how many lives have you suffered?"

At this time, many torches were lit outside the shop, and dark shadows were reflected in the windows.

Xu Laifeng said: "Yo he, I said why you weren't there just now, it turned out that you sent people." ”

Seeing that the matter was revealed, Li Tiehou shouted: "The two of you, who know each other, leave the weapons and silver and get out, otherwise, don't blame me for being polite." ”

The proprietress turned out of the back kitchen, took a plate of meaty buns in her right hand, but carried a kitchen knife in her left hand, and said: "Master, what nonsense are you talking to them, these two people, at first glance, are not a good thing, just enter the door, a pair of eyes, look at the old lady's chest, and then look around." ”

Li Tiehou's face turned pale, and he said: "When you arrive at my luxury ridge, you still want to get out alive and bully my wife, so you will make adult meat buns." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "Boss, you are wrong, since we entered the door, you have been verbally provocative, only wearing small clothes, deliberately showing your shoulders, isn't this a seduction of our brother, I know, you are not satisfied with your husband, you have a donkey face, very ugly, seeing that our brother is handsome, so I have such thoughts, but in my opinion, Brother Li, I am sincere to you, you can't not abide by women's morals." ”

After Xu Laifeng said this, Li Tiehou looked at his mother-in-law, the proprietress was startled, and said: "Li Tiehou, since you were twelve years old, you snatched the old lady, when did the old lady do something sorry for you, we have no son, but that's not the fault of the old lady, you can't doubt the head of the old lady, you have no conscience." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "I've been married for so many years, I don't have a son, I just don't want to give birth, Brother Li, look at the mother-in-law in front of you, she is dressed up with flowers, she is so old and smiling so much older than you, at first glance, she is waiting for the red apricot to come out of the wall, waiting for the second spring of life." ”
