After driving away the alchemists, Fu Yao asked Li Shui excitedly: "Sir, have you agreed to accept me as your disciple?"
Li Shui shook his head and said, "I just used your name to scare the alchemists. You are still in the assessment period. Keep working hard. If you perform well, I will consider accepting you as a disciple."
Fu Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he nodded seriously.
People during the assessment period are always the most positive. Li Shui knew this well, so he planned to keep testing Fu Yao...
Li Shui took two steps outside the Yingxian Palace, suddenly turned around and asked Fu Yao with a confused look on his face: "What am I going to do?"
Fu Yao said: "Sir, you are going to a banquet at General Li Xin's mansion."
Li Shui suddenly realized what he was saying, and then asked, "Where is Li Xin's Mansion?"
Fu Yao said with some confusion: "Isn't Sir recommended by Li Xin? Before entering the palace, you should live in the General's Mansion..."
Li Shui was stunned for a moment, and then began to search for the pitiful memory left by Huaiguzi.
In the end, Li Shui discovered that there was only a vague shadow of General Li Xin's mansion in his mind.
Li Shui shook his head and pointed at Wujiao: "Take me there."
Wu Jiao said with a bitter face: "Although I am a slave, I am still a palace slave, not Master Huai's personal slave. If I were in the palace, it would be fine if I was commanded by you. How can I find someone to lead the way..."
Li Shui didn't talk nonsense to him, and just said lightly: "The king ordered you to obey my orders, and today you started to disobey me? If the refining of the elixir is delayed, can you afford it?"
Wu Jiao was a little speechless. Does this have anything to do with refining the elixir? If you can't refine the elixir later, you might blame me for not taking you to Li Xin's Mansion, right?
Wujiao had no choice but to take Li Shui out of the palace with a grimace.
Fu Yao looked at Li Shui with envy and wanted to take a walk in the palace, but Li Shui firmly stopped him.
In Li Shui's view, Fu Yao was a valuable vase, so it was okay to keep him at home as a family treasure. But if it gets broken while you are running around with him, who does it belong to? What's more, the sores on Fu Yao's back haven't fully grown yet, so he can't act rashly.
Wu Jiao found a carriage and rode with Li Shui, slowly driving towards General Li Xin's mansion.
When he was halfway there, Li Shui suddenly heard a cry: "Drunken Immortal Wine, Drunken Immortal Wine. Even gods can get drunk. Master Huaiguzi, who is sworn in with other alchemists, tasted it himself and was full of praise."
Li Shui was stunned, turned his head and looked over, and was immediately happy. Isn't this the boss who sold the liquor?
I remember that Li Shui asked him to spread the word that he was sworn in with other alchemists, but he didn't expect that this man was actually honest.
Li Shui casually said to Wu Jiao: "Go and reward him with a string of Qin Banliang."
Wujiao groaned and sat in the car without moving.
Li Shui was angry: "What? Are you disobeying me again?"
Wujiao said with a grimace, "Young man, I don't have that much money."
Li Shui waved his hand: "I'll give you as much as you want. Go back quickly, don't delay my important event."
Wujiao got out of the car slowly, complaining all the way: "I want to reward people, but I have to pay for it as a slave. Who are you? We eunuchs don't get much salary a year."
Wu Jiao walked up to the boss angrily, took out three Qin Ban Liang, slapped it on the counter, and shouted: "This is what Huai Guzi rewards you."
Then, without waiting for the boss to answer, Wujiao turned around and left.
The boss stood in the wine shop, looking at the three Qin Banliang on the table, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
To be honest, the sales of Zuixianjiu are really good these days thanks to the reputation of the Alchemist.
When he first started doing this, the boss was a little nervous, but after thinking about it, he realized that this was what Huaiguzi asked of himself, and he must publicize it everywhere. So he boldly shouted down.
But now... what does Huaiguzi mean?
If you really want a reward, no matter whether it is gold or silver, how can you reward a mere three and a half taels of Qin? This is more like a taunt or a threat.
What's more, the little eunuch with the sharp voice just now had an angry look on his face, clearly quite dissatisfied with himself.
The boss didn't dare to shout anymore, and hurried to the kitchen, and said to his wife with a mournful face: "Trouble is coming."
While adding water to the Zuixianjiu, the landlady asked, "What kind of trouble is this? What kind of situation can this happen if you are in such a hurry?"
The boss said: "Master Huaiguzi seems to be angry. If we don't yell for him, he will be angry. If we yell for him, he will also be angry. What should we do?"
The landlady thought for a while and suddenly smiled: "Master Huaiguzi, it has been made very obvious. Since he ordered someone to reward you, it means that what you did was in line with his wishes. But he only gave you three Qin Ban Liang. It means… there’s less money.”
The boss was stunned for a while, then suddenly realized, and said: "Master Huaiguzi means that we should pay him some money?"
The landlady nodded: "Yes, we used his name to make a few daily signboards and made a lot of profits. No matter how otherworldly Huaiguzi is, he still feels a little unhappy. However, if you take the initiative to hand over some, the situation will be different. .”
The boss slapped his forehead hard: "I'm such an idiot, why didn't I think of it earlier."
So the boss went to the accounting room and started to calculate, figuring out how much money to give Huaiguzi.
After calculating the money, the boss suddenly became a little worried: Huaiguzi always lives in the palace, how can he send the money there?
…………
Li Shui has arrived at the general's mansion. Li Xin and his wife greeted him at the door.
Mrs. Li's impression of Huaiguzi is very complicated. From the first time she saw Huaiguzi, Mrs. Li felt that this guy was a liar. He was young, only in his twenties, yet he uttered wild words, saying that he could make an elixir.
Later, Huaiguzi entered the palace and repeatedly failed in making alchemy, which made her husband laugh at others. Who knew that he would then claim to be able to cure ulcers. Moreover, the implicated husband gambled his life with others.
At that time, Mrs. Li hated Huaiguzi so much.
But who would have thought that within a few hours, everything would turn around and Huaiguzi turned the tide and actually saved Fu Yao's life. As a result, her husband was promoted to a higher position.
Mrs. Li breathed a long sigh of relief and bowed to Huaiguzi, thinking: "Perhaps, he is really an expert. I heard that people with special powers will have various strange appearances from the time they are born. 2. It may not be impossible for someone who is more than ten years old to refine an elixir."
Mrs. Li had just successfully brainwashed herself, and then she became a little speechless.
Ever since Huai Guzi entered the house, his eyes have been looking around in a thief-like manner. Either looking at the young and beautiful maids, or looking at the expensive furnishings in the house.
