Chapter 2213 Light Gate Lintel 13
This is a small town. There is only one coffin shop in the town that also sells some daily necessities.
Knocking on the door early in the morning is a common thing for coffin shops, and there is no taboo. No matter what kind of business it is, it’s still business.
After hearing that Xining asked them to wipe the body of the deceased and change into clean clothes, she went to the rouge shop to buy rouge and gouache. The owner of the coffin shop said that he had it, and he usually helped people with simple things. He had everything he needed and could use it for free. If you spend some money, you can help, but your companions refuse.
How can the owner of the coffin shop be so considerate as this little miracle doctor? If it weren't for the medicine package that comes with it, the little miracle doctor's makeup would cost fifty taels of silver.
It is different from brushing your face white and applying blush. The little doctor used flesh-colored powder, and even the holes in the wounds were smoothed with gypsum soil used for repairing walls. I drew my eyebrows a little and put on a little lipstick to make it look natural.
"Better looking than when I was alive." A big Maha looked at it in surprise, spat out a sentence, and was immediately slapped on the back of the head by his companion.
The owner of the coffin shop looked up and down. This little girl, who was only ten years old, asked cautiously: "Are you from the same family?" If you have this skill at a young age, your family must have been involved in this business since you were a child.
Mo Ming: "Ha~"
You are the one who runs the idle business at home... Xining rolled his eyes at the boss, but his attitude remained calm and gentle: "I am a medical practitioner. I travel around the world, so it is normal for me to know how to disguise myself."
"Oh, I'm sorry." The boss apologized hastily. No wonder the craftsmanship is so good, it turns out to be a higher level, not on the same level.
After everything was done, Xi Ning took the cheap leader of Xuan Hu Sect to leave. Everyone came to the door to see each other off and bid farewell.
Seeing those people still looking a little reluctant to leave, Liu Yulang felt like he was gone. Did these people forget that almost all the money in their pockets was emptied by this girl?
"Everyone, take care of yourself. I'll see you again someday." Xining bowed in return and said goodbye with an innocent and sweet smile on his face. He turned around and walked away while muttering: "It's so warm. If I didn't have something else to do, I really want to stay a little longer."
"What's the matter?" Liu Yulang asked curiously.
"Make money!"
Liu Yulang...it's not like these people left just because they didn't have much money.
Liu Yulang asked tentatively: "What do you want so much money for?" He had already made a plan. No matter what the girl answered, he said that she was young, did not need so much money, and was not safe, so he should keep the money. Besides, he is the leader now, so the money should be kept by the leader.
Xi Ning's lips curled up: "Guess."
Liu Yulang..., why don't you play according to the routine? Guess, guess what. No matter what you say, as long as the other party says something wrong, don't you have to continue guessing?
No, we have to find another method.
At this time, Xining walked into a store. This store looked much better than other stores. The ground floor was the lobby, the second floor was private rooms, and the third floor and the backyard were guest rooms for accommodation. The waiter at the door greeted him enthusiastically and asked Liu Yulang: "Are you two working as a top or staying in a hotel?"
Liu Yulang subconsciously looked at Xining, all the money was with this girl.
"Stay in the hotel and eat on the way." Xining went to find an empty table and sat down.
The waiter looked at Liu Yulang with a slightly confused look. This girl didn't seem to be his daughter, nor was she her age. The girls don't look alike either, this man has fair skin and this girl has dark skin. Or a cousin.
Liu Yulang glared angrily, "What are you looking at? I am the leader even if I don't make the decision."
"Xiaoer!" Xining called over there.
"Hey, here we come!" The waiter ran over.
Xi Ning sat at the head of the table: "Three ounces of mutton, two bowls of mutton soup, and three sesame seed cakes." It was the dog days of summer, but it was the right time to eat something hot in the heat to replenish the body. Mutton was being stewed in a large pot at the door, and a big-bodied cook beside him was putting sesame-sprinkled dough into the stove. It was already past breakfast time, and there were still two tables eating in the store, which proved that the mutton and sesame cakes in this store were good.
There is a wooden sign with crookedly written vegetable prices hanging on the side. The price is clearly marked, and the price is quite affordable.
"Hey, that's good." The waiter looked at how the two of them were dressed, wearing long dark green coats like hermits, and glanced at the medicine box Liu Yulang was carrying. I thought there should be no shortage of money, so I went to get food.
Just as Liu Yulang was about to speak, the waiter quickly brought over three still-warm sesame cakes.
Xining picked up a sesame seed cake and took a bite: "Well, it's fragrant and crispy. Master, try it quickly."
"Well, good." Liu Yulang picked up a sesame seed cake and broke it into pieces while thinking. His mind was not on sesame cakes. Although it was already three o'clock in the morning and he had not eaten breakfast yet, he was already hungry, but this was money. With money, how many biscuits can you buy? Any sesame seed cake costs almost a thousand taels of silver, and you can eat sea cucumbers and bear paws at will.
Holding the cake with one hand, and pinching the newly torn piece with the other hand: "That..."
"Here comes the mutton!" The waiter diligently brought another mutton and a small plate with three slices of sour garlic in it.
Interrupted, brewing again... "Here comes the mutton soup!"
Liu Yulang rolled his eyes.
The waiter, an absolute professional model, said with a smile on his face: "Two guests, the dishes are ready. If you need anything else, just ask."
"Yeah, okay." Xining ate sesame seed cakes, drank mutton soup, and put thinly sliced mutton into his mouth from time to time. This store tastes good, and you may be hungry.
Suddenly remembered something: "What do you want to say?"
Liu Yulang was depressed for a while, what should he say? He forgot what he was going to say, so he picked up the broken sesame seed cake and put it in his mouth: "Eat." This was used to change the subject.
Forget it, eat your fill first, as long as the people are there, the money can't escape.
After eating, Xining wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. He was sweating freely. He put down a piece of broken silver and said: "Waiter, pay the bill and prepare two more guest rooms."
After the waiter agreed, he asked the other guys to take the people to the room. He went over to get the money, haha, it was silver. It was estimated to be as heavy as five or six cents. He could give it to him with fifty cents change. Sure enough, these two were not short of money.
(Five qian silver is equivalent to 500 fen, 30 taels of mutton is 300 fen, sesame seed cakes are 1 penny each, and a bowl of mutton soup is 40 fen. Mutton is expensive, and most people are reluctant to eat meat, even in this relatively high-end place. Drink soup to satisfy the craving. When the waiter saw Liu Yulang carrying the medicine box, he knew that they must be doctors. Doctors make a lot of money, so they didn't ask them to pay before eating. Even so, they kept a close eye on them for fear of skipping the bill. . )
When he arrived at the guest room, Xining took a look around. The bed was covered with a bamboo mat, which was also clean, and nodded. He took out a bunch of hundred coins from the medicine box and gave it to the waiter: "Please bring a bucket of hot water to each guest room. My senior brother and I need to take a bath."
The waiter quickly collected the money and stuffed it into his lapel, smiling like a flower: "You two gentlemen, please wait a moment and will be here immediately!"
The arrangements were very thorough. Xining had said before that he would go out with the master and his senior brother, and it seemed to be true. However, with so much money, how could he not keep it in his own hands?
Liu Yulang stopped being subtle and said directly: "Junior sister, I think those banknotes are safe with me. If someone comes to steal them, at least I can use force."
Seeing Xi Ning looking at him with a slight smile on his lips, Liu Yulang quickly said: "I'm also worried. These are all earned with great difficulty. In the future, we will still need this money to shine."
Look, he is really thinking about the safety of his money and Xuan Humen. It’s not that you are greedy for money and want to keep it as your own.
