Peach Pit Landlord

Although Li Yuan himself felt a little unbelievable, there was really no other explanation besides this. The only possibility is that the golden beads from the peach pit yesterday were absorbed by ginseng after being smashed, that's why this happened. But this is just Li Yuan's guess, and he is not sure about the truth.

For Li Yuan, it was really difficult to find out the truth, so he quickly decided to show this ginseng to Lao Liao to find out whether the change was good or bad.

Before going out, Li Yuan pinched off the leaves and fruits of ginseng, after all, that was too miraculous. And Lao Liao was half buried in the ground, Li Yuan didn't want to scare him because of this, it would be bad if something went wrong.

Old Liao, whose name is Liao Hanqing, is also Li Yuan's neighbor. The two live very close to each other, within a few minutes' walk. Speaking of Lao Liao, Li Yuan was nothing but grateful and admired.

When Li Yuan's mother was still alive, Lao Liao often took care of Li Yuan's mother and son because he saw the pity of their orphans and widowed mothers. After Li Yuan's mother passed away due to overwork, it was Lao Liao who took the initiative to hold a decent funeral for Li Yuan's mother with the help of Li Qian's parents and other neighbors.

Therefore, Li Yuan has always regarded Lao Liao as an elder. Although they usually get along very casually, in Li Yuan's heart, he is definitely a respectable elder.

Lao Liao lives alone, and Li Yuan even has the key to his house. He opened the door of Lao Liao's house familiarly, and the first thing he saw was thick old bamboo and many half-made bamboo carvings.

Lao Liao is not young, and his old rheumatism leg makes him move around all the year round, so he usually spends time by carving these things. In fact, the bamboo carving that Li Yuan sold yesterday was Lao Liao's work.

One of Li Yuan and Lao Liao is in charge of carving, and the other is in charge of selling. Although the two have never talked about how to divide the money they earn, they have always cooperated very well. And Li Yuan also used most of the money he earned to buy medicines and various supplements for Lao Liao, and only a small part was used for himself.

"Old Liao, here I come." Li Yuan shouted after entering the door, and soon saw Lao Liao coming out with a cane.

Lao Liao is over sixty years old, and his hands are as rough as sandpaper, obviously used to rough work. However, in his small and crowded study room, there are all kinds of books, many of which are about to be torn apart. From this point of view, Lao Liao is a bit like a scholar.

None of the neighbors knew Lao Liao's background, and he himself kept it secret, and Li Yuan wisely never asked. In Li Yuan's view, it is enough to know what kind of person Lao Liao is, and there is really no need to delve into his past.

"You boy is here!" Lao Liao's tone was cold, but there was a hint of relief on his wrinkled old face.

"I sold that bamboo carving yesterday for three hundred." Although he knew that Lao Liao didn't care about these things at all, Li Yuan still habitually reported to Lao Liao.

Lao Liao frowned as expected, and then said indifferently: "How much you sell is up to you, you don't need to tell me in the future."

"I'm just talking casually." Li Yuan smiled slightly: "Then I bought you a root of ginseng, but...the ginseng I bought this time is a bit strange, you should see for yourself if you can eat it."

In Li Yuan's impression, Lao Liao's knowledge is extremely complex, and it can be said that he knows everything about astronomy and geography, so it is most appropriate for him to identify the "mutated" ginseng by himself.

Lao Liao frowned and said, "What's weird? You must have been tricked..."

At this time, Li Yuan had already taken out the ginseng, and Lao Liao immediately swallowed back his words, pointing at the ginseng with a face full of surprise, his fingers trembling with excitement.

I have known Lao Liao for so long, and Li Yuan has never seen him like this before, so he quickly reminded: "Hey, don't get excited! It's just the two of us here now, if you suffocate the blood vessels, I will be covered with blood. I can’t even speak clearly!”

Li Yuan's words worked,

Lao Liao finally returned to his usual appearance, glared at him fiercely and said, "You brat, you can talk nonsense, show me the ginseng!"

Li Yuan chuckled and handed over the ginseng. Lao Liao took the ginseng carefully, looked at it carefully for a while, and then praised: "This... this is the real wild ginseng! Look at the shape, the iron wire pattern, the reed bowl and the pearls on the roots. Li, this wild ginseng is at least a hundred years old! Kid, are you going to rob a Chinese medicine store?"

"Tch, we are so familiar, you still don't understand me?" Li Yuan felt that he had been greatly insulted, and said indignantly: "Will I do such a thing that has no technical content and relies entirely on brute force? ?!"

Lao Liao looked at Li Yuan for a while, then nodded deeply and said, "That's right, you have been weak and sick since you were a child, so you prefer to play tricks on others, such as robbery, which requires strength, you really can't do it! "

Li Yuan said angrily: "I won't discuss this issue with you, you just need to tell me whether this ginseng can be eaten and whether it is good for your body!"

"Do you even need to ask?" Lao Liao rolled his eyes at Li Yuan and said, "This is a wild ginseng that is more than a hundred years old, and there is nowhere to buy it in the market now! In the past, rich people were dying and wanted to live a few more days. They will hang their lives with this kind of thing, do you think it can be eaten? According to my estimation, the effect of a single ginseng root of this ginseng can be equal to a whole branch of undergrowth ginseng."

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good if you can eat it, just put it away and eat slowly."

Seeing that Li Yuan wanted to give him this wild ginseng that was more than a hundred years old, Lao Liao quickly said seriously: "Boy, I accept your wish, but this thing is too precious, I really can't take it!"

"When will my words count?" Li Yuan frowned and said, "This ginseng was originally bought for you, if you don't want it, don't want anyone else!"

As soon as this sentence came out, Li Yuan casually picked up the machete used by Lao Liao to cut bamboo, and chopped down on the ginseng.

"Oh!" Lao Liao whispered in surprise, the ginseng was cut into two neatly.

"You kid, what a reckless waste!" Seeing that the matter was irreversible, Lao Liao pointed at Li Yuan helplessly and said, "Do you know how much this ginseng is worth now? It's all over now!"

Li Yuan casually threw the machete aside, clapped his hands and asked casually, "How much is it worth?"

"At least 250,000!" Lao Liao said regretfully, "And if the quality is good, there can be more!"

"Two...two hundred and fifty thousand?" Hearing this price, Li Yuan couldn't help but widen his eyes, and couldn't even speak.

"Haha, do you know how distressed you are now?" Lao Liao said with a smile, "Take these two pieces back quickly. If you meet someone who knows the goods, you can sell them for tens of thousands of yuan!"

However, to Lao Liao's surprise, Li Yuan had no intention of taking back this wild ginseng at all. Instead, he shook his head indifferently and said, "Isn't it just a wild ginseng? I don't care about it at all. You should keep it and make up for it." , maybe I can have a second spring and find a wife to have a baby, haha!"

"You kid, you are making fun of my old man again, get out!" The answer to Li Yuan was naturally Lao Liao's dissatisfied roar.

Being interrupted by Li Yuan, Lao Liao didn't ask him where this ginseng came from. Of course Li Yuan would not take the initiative to bring it up, and after chatting with Lao Liao for a few more words, he took his leave and left.
