The Lord who use immortals as food

A place to spend money...

After Pei Ye finished chatting with Chang Zhiyuan and sent the old man away, he looked at Master Huang's accounting paper and thought of this sentence again.

Back then, the old house was sold for twelve taels of silver, which was a huge amount of money that he had never seen before. Now with twenty taels in hand, Pei Ye felt that it was a rich time and asked the children to go to the city. If it was not enough He didn't believe in the expense.

"Just take an ox cart or a donkey cart to pull goods. They are all young children. They can stay there if they have a board. It takes about five. Ask someone you know to borrow one. Some children have one at home. If not, just give them some money. A total of One tael of silver is enough."

"The main cost of this journey is to stay overnight on the way." Master Huang said, "We are all children. It is not safe to sleep on the road, so we have to stay in an inn in Anxin Town. When I stayed there three years ago, the inn was very crowded. It’s fifty cents at night. If you can squeeze into four rooms to sleep, it’s only two hundred cents. Add some tea and horse feed, and two hundred and fifty cents will be about the same.”

"Where's the food?"

"You can bring your own food. The weather is cool and it won't be damaged in a day or two." Master Huang wrote on the paper, "The main expenses are after arriving in the city."

"It will take about twenty-four to five days from now to the end of the martial arts competition. How much will it cost?" Pei Ye leaned on the table and looked at it.

"What did you say?" Master Huang raised his head and looked at him inexplicably, "Tomorrow you will be the only one leaving. We will go there before the martial arts competition starts."

"Oh, that's right."

"Nonsense! More than 20 people have been staying in the city for months and days, and even selling you is not enough."

".It might still be enough to sell it."

"The martial arts competition lasts four days." Master Huang ignored him, "Then you may have to stay in the city for four nights. The accommodation in the city is expensive."

"Why four nights? It must be at least five nights."

Master Huang raised his eyes and glanced at him: "We will go back together when you are eliminated. It doesn't matter who wins the championship later on."

".You add, six nights. Even if I am eliminated, let the children watch it. The more it goes on, the more exciting it will be."

"Okay, six nights, the accommodation will cost about two taels of silver."

"It's so expensive."

"It's the cheapest. I'll negotiate with him later, but I guess there's no chance. Rooms are in short supply during this competition, so it would be nice if the price increase is less." Master Huang wrote down another line of words.

"Then it's food. Then I'll see if I can find some local people and give them some money to buy some rice, noodles, vegetables and meat, and cook together. If we stay in a six-day inn, it will cost too much. But even so, It’s probably worth a tael of silver.”

"Then this is not bad, less than five taels." Pei Ye said.

"We haven't counted the big ones yet."

"What?"

"With this large group of people coming into the city, the officials will definitely be in trouble. To deal with this, we have to start in two."

".What's so embarrassing about a group of kids?"

"Being able to bring a group of children to watch Wubi means you have spare money in your pocket."

"."

"Do you think everyone is under the rule of Mr. Chang?" Master Huang said with a pen, "This sum should be counted as two taels."

"Okay, then seven taels, no more, right?"

"You really have never been out." Master Huang sighed, "Whenever you go out, how can you spend only on food and accommodation, let alone so many people staying in the city for six days."

"What else?"

"All kinds of miscellaneous things - do you want to keep the horse? Do you need to take medicine when someone is sick? The city is full of expensive places, unlike us where everything can be done."

"Okay, how much is this?"

"I don't know how to count. It can range from one or two taels to five or six taels." Master Huang said, "Just count it as three taels."

"That's a total of ten taels."

"Twelve for now."

"Okay." Pei Ye nodded, "I'll bring you the money tomorrow."

"You can just take five taels, and I'll pay for the remaining five taels."

"You don't have to! Your family is here."

"Then I'll pay three taels." Master Huang raised his eyes and looked at him, "That's it."

".OK."

Master Huang dipped his hand in ink and said, "Then go back, pack up what needs to be packed, and leave early tomorrow."

"good."

After leaving the house, Pei Ye took back Liuli, who was mingling with the children, said goodbye with reluctant eyes, and left the yard.

…

Return to the courtyard.

He said he wanted to pack his luggage, but Pei Ye went back to his small courtyard and looked around, but he really couldn't find anything to bring.

He spread out a package and folded two sets of clean clothes into it. One is a brown shirt and the other is a gray and white shirt. Although it is a bit old, the fabric is still in good condition. He also put on a pair of cloth shoes and some ribbons to tie his hair.

Then Pei Ye stood in front of the package in a daze, not knowing what to do.

He felt as if he hadn't started to clean up yet, but he had already done so.

After standing there for a while, I really couldn't think of anything else to bring, so I just packed it up.

Then he went to the courtyard, polished and cleaned the sword, and placed it next to the package.

Then Pei Ye took out the jade pendant given to him by Zhu Gaoyang and held it in front of his eyes.

This pendant is dark black in color and soft as fat. It is about the size of a date. It is a jade ring in the shape of a dragon with its head in its head. It can be worn as a ring on the hand.

In fact, this ring was originally slightly larger, but after Pei Ye fed the blood and true energy of the dragon's head under the guidance of Zhu Gaoyang, and then put it on his finger, the small dragon seemed to come alive, flowing in the jade. Slowly he tightened his fingers.

But Pei Ye still took it off his hand, and in accordance with the simple concept of not revealing wealth, he tied it with a rope, hung it around his neck and hid it in his collar.

At this time, Pei Ye gently rubbed the dragon's head twice. The jade dragon raised its head and opened its mouth. The fingernail-sized head actually opened wider than a fist, and a deep channel was exposed in its throat.

Pei Ye stuffed the silver in first.

According to Zhu Gaoyang, the width of the dragon's mouth is the width of the container that can carry items - the container is like the belly of the dragon, with a narrow space as wide as an arm and more than a foot long.

Small pieces of silver can go in, pills can go in, and clothes, shoes, and rolls can be put in, but no matter how big they are, they won't work. And if it's too crowded and you want to take it out, you have to pour out the stuff blocked in front first.

Logically speaking, this size is enough to put two swords in. Pei Ye originally wanted to try to put the Zhanxin Liuli in, but as soon as his intention was exposed, the Zhanxin Liuli suddenly took it out and soaked the cold tip of the sword with water. To him.

"Okay." Pei Ye had no choice but to put it into the sword case again, planning to carry it on his back.

I won't be dissatisfied with my sword, but it is a weapon against the enemy. If it is put in, it will be difficult to take it out in an emergency.

The sword box was also placed on the table, and the jade pendant was placed on the sword box. Pei Ye looked at these and began to be in a daze.

What else?

Suddenly he said "Oh" softly, walked to the yard, picked up the black cat by the well, walked back to the house, and put it on top of the package with its blank eyes.

Pei Ye looked at the things on the table and nodded with satisfaction.
