Chapter 0673 Tsundere Old Li
After successfully dealing with those ignorant guys, Liu Chu became more and more calm and said to Xu Qingfeng beside him: "Old man, let's go inside for a rest first."
After all, I will still have to explore the dangerous ancient tomb later. Now it is important to maintain a sufficient spirit.
Xu Qingfeng naturally had no objection to Liu Chu's words. As he got into the inn, the two began to sleep on the ground.
They slept until dusk. It was almost evening when the two people opened their eyes one after another. Seeing that it was getting late outside, Liu Chu thought for a while, and then said to him, "Old man, look at this. Anyway, there is no time yet. Why don't we go out and see if there is anything we need nearby?"
If he was allowed to stay in the inn all day, he would be suffocated. It would be better to go out for a walk. Even if he didn't buy the right thing, he could relax. This would be great.
Xu Qingfeng didn't say anything, so he nodded and went out with him. In this ancient town, there were no shadows of modern buildings, so there were no so-called shops, there were only small vendors.
They walked slowly and finally arrived at a teahouse where several practitioners were chatting, which looked very harmonious. When they saw Liu and Chu, their faces changed, and they obviously recognized Xu Qingfeng.
"This old man would like to ask, are there any medicines sold by cultivators nearby?" Liu Chu naturally went forward and asked first. He couldn't let Xu Qingfeng, who was famous far and wide, come forward to ask. This was too expensive.
"Some, some, right behind our teahouse, there is a Master Li. The things he sells are fairly priced and of good quality, which is quite suitable for us." The practitioner immediately flattered and guided them diligently, hoping to get familiar with them.
Liu Chu naturally understood their hearts, took out a few pills from his pocket and handed them, "Thank you, these pills are what my old man thanks for you."
For him and Xu Qingfeng, these were just a few low-level pills, but for these low-level cultivators, it was hard to find a fortune. I didn't expect that it would be of such great benefit to point out a way, and my eyes became hot.
"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master Xiao Liu Chu, thank you, thank you, thank you so much." The man kept lowering his waist and apologizing, looking really flattered.
Liu Chu and the other two had seen too many such symptoms, so there was not much trouble in their hearts. They just nodded lightly and walked over to the back of the teahouse. Sure enough, they saw a thin old man sitting on the stall, shaking his small palm-leaf fan, looking very happy.
Xu Qingfeng didn't have much hope to see what he needed, but it was amazing at this moment. Unexpectedly, there were really things he urgently needed now, and there were a lot of them, which seemed to be at least five or six, which made his eyes suddenly feel happy.
When Old Man Li saw them, his expression changed drastically because he recognized Xu Qingfeng at least and was well-known in their circle of cultivators.
"Oh, isn't this Mr. Xu? What wind has blown you here, and see what you need. I'm very affordable. I can't buy it and suffer losses or be deceived!" Old Man Li immediately smiled. Although his things would be more expensive for others, he is a master in front of him and would never be stingy with that little money.
Thinking of the oil that could be harvested in a while, his eyes couldn't narrow.
Xu Qingfeng looked at such a flattering and attentive person so he didn't have much expression. He just uttered lightly, then brought all five or six things he picked to one place, and asked casually, "Tell me, how much does these things cost in total? I bought them all."
Old Man Li's eyes rolled, as if he was having some idea. Then he smiled cunningly and said, "This little thing is definitely not expensive. For Mr. Xu, this must be a little wealth."
Liu Chu couldn't stand it anymore. He hated people who were so skewed and never deviated from the topic, which was a waste of time. So he said bluntly, "Just say how much you can just say. Don't be so stubborn. We old man is busy."
"Boy, stop making trouble. The things here are not something you can buy. They all want a special currency, which is different from the RMB in our city. You need to consider it carefully." Xu Qingfeng said to Liu Chu in a low voice.
After Liu Chu knew about it, he stopped talking nonsense. Since Old Man Xu said that, he must have his own plans. He could not be smart enough to make things worse. Both of them didn't speak, looking at what Old Man Li planned to do next.
Old Man Li's face looked a little ugly. After all, many people still understand his temperament for so many years and never cause trouble for me. Unexpectedly, this young man who looks small in front of him is so domineering to him, which is simply hateful.
Originally, he didn't want to extort much money for Xu Qingfeng, but his attitude annoyed him, so he opened his mouth and increased the original price by five times. See what they could do.
"It's not much more than five thousand coins, you can take them away."
"What?" Xu Qingfeng frowned. He didn't expect that in such a remote area, there were people who wanted to knock him out in such a business. He really didn't know the market price. He was not unaware of the market price, but the old man obviously increased by five times.
"Fellow Taoist, what do you mean? These things are far from worth so much. Could it be that we did something wrong?" He didn't say nonsense and asked directly, his expression was a little gloomy. If he didn't answer well, he might not give up.
"Haha, Mr. Xu, I have always respected you very much, but today is an exception. I am in a bad mood, so at this price, do you like to buy it or not?" Old Man Li is also a backbone person. Even if he faces such a threat, he still remains calm.
He didn't believe that no matter how capable these two people were, would they dare to smash his face on his territory?
He really doesn't believe in this evil. Even if Mr. Xu has a great reputation in this circle, he is a local snake in such a small place, and he can't do anything to him. This thing is sold at this price.
Liu Chu suddenly sneered twice. He didn't expect that there were always so many people who were ignorant of life today, but he didn't want to bully others with his power. He just smiled threateningly, "Old man Li, let's buy your things. This is taking care of your business. Why are you still starting a price? Are you not afraid of losing your reputation?"
Old Man Li's expression changed, but he still insisted, "I don't care about my reputation anymore. Anyway, I'm so old, it doesn't matter whether I want it or not. Anyway, I'll sell this thing at this price today. Do you want to buy it or not?"
Xu Qingfeng noticed his changes, so he poked Liu Chu beside him and asked, "Did you have done something that just now angered him? Otherwise, how could there be such a big change in a short period of time? Think about it yourself, is there anything just now?"
It was obvious that when this old man saw them at first, he had a smile on his face, and he couldn't wait, why did he raise the price now and give up and fight against them to the end?
There must be something wrong with this, and the only change lies in Liu Chu's words just now, which probably hurt the old man's self-esteem, and then he began to get entangled.
"I seemed to blow him a little impatiently just now, and then it became like this. I didn't expect it to be like this." Liu Chu was a little helpless. He didn't expect this little old man to care so much about the details. This made him a little difficult to deal with, but he couldn't bear to let him apologize like this.
"Old man Li, do you think that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and no one knows you, so I just offend us so carefreely. You have to think it through carefully. After all, our old man is a famous person in this circle. If you treat him like this, if you have the ability, you should not leave this ancient town in the future, otherwise you will be excluded. After all, the appeal of my old man is here." Since Liu Chu did not want to apologize, he could only find a way to convince him, even if he was coercive and tempted, he must succeed.
Old Man Li's face suddenly looked a little ugly because of his words, but he still endured and stared at him silently.
Liu Chu continued to speak, but his tone softened a little, "Okay, even if we had something offended just now, I'll ask you to have a lot of them. Can you sell these things to us at a fair price? If you have more friends, you don't want to offend us, right? This is not easy for you."
After hearing his words, the old man's face finally eased a little, and he said with some depression, "Okay, okay, since you said that, what reason do I have to be so petty? OK, then I'll give it to you at the original price, one thousand coins, take away these five things. This is a necessary thing for cultivation, and it's not a loss for you."
He was also anxious just now, but he didn't expect that the consequences of doing this were to show off his temporary pleasure. Now that he was reminded by him, he naturally could not continue to offend him unscrupulously. He could only grit his teeth and swallow this breath, otherwise what else could he do?
"You're a little too much. Although we're not short of money, we still know the market price. You little old man, don't always think about cheating us. Five hundred coins, the most." Liu Chu bargained. Of course, he knew the huge profits in these things, so he naturally wouldn't make this bad old man so easy to make money.
Old Man Li looked a little embarrassed, but he looked reluctant, "You don't bargain with such an exaggerated price, right? You can see half of it at a glance. This is the rhythm that insists on making me bleed."
