"Li Qian is weird, and the villagers in his village are also weird. They can't even touch gold."
Zhu Hongyan put the wine glass down hard.
Mr. Xu smiled and said, "Beiba Village guards a treasure mountain. How can they see your little gold?"
"Mr. Xu, are you sure there is really a salt mine in Beiba Village? I can see from the village chief's expression that he really doesn't know about this." Zhu Hongyan asked with a slight frown.
"Maybe he really doesn't know, maybe he just pretends not to know." Mr. Xu just picked up the wine bottle and poured wine.
Zhu Hongyan was stunned for a moment, "Then does he know or not?"
"You ask me, who am I asking?" Mr. Xu picked up the wine glass and said hoarsely.
Zhu Hongyan couldn't help but complained, "Mr. Xu, I am doing things for you. If you say this, how can I do things for you?"
"I've told you that you can't rush this matter. You have to go and find out what's going on. Now your trip has been in vain." Mr. Xu just smiled.
"Then Mr. Xu, tell me, what should we do next?"
"Didn't I tell you earlier? Wait!" Mr. Xu said while holding the wine glass.
"wait?"
"Don't you always think that Li Qi'an's ability to bring down Fan Tong is not considered true? You said that Fan Tong fell because of Zhao Xuemin. Then you are here and see with your own eyes Li Qi'an's true ability." Xu Laodao said.
"What do you mean? Mr. Xu, why are you making me more and more confused?" Zhu Hongyan asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Are we just going to stay here and not go back?"
"Now that you're here, of course you have to treat yourself well. Anyway, I drink every day when I go back to Shiliang City, and it's the same when I drink here. There just happen to be some condiments to go with the wine, so this wine will be more delicious!"
Mr. Xu poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
"Mr. Xu, what you mean is that you have already prepared and I don't need to do anything?" Zhu Hongyan said with a hint of complaint, "Mr. Xu, if you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have to embarrass myself in front of a few villagers."
Mr. Xu laughed and said, "If I tell you everything, wouldn't it be too boring?"
"Mr. Xu!" Zhu Hongyan said coquettishly, "Is it interesting that you see me embarrassed?"
Mr. Xu laughed and said, "Fortunately, you are not stupid enough to go to Li Qian. You are not embarrassed in front of those two villagers."
"Mr. Xu, even if I'm stupid, it's because I want to do something for Mr. Xu. How can you say that to me?" Zhu Hongyan said with a look of disapproval.
"Okay, okay, you are not stupid, you are smart. How can you stay with me if you are not smart." Mr. Xu also coaxed.
Only then did Zhu Hongyan give up.
"Then what exactly did Mr. Xu prepare for Li Qian?"
Mr. Xu smiled and said, "You can read it slowly and understand it slowly. Once some things are revealed, they will be boring."
Zhu Hongyan curled her lips and said, "Okay, then I won't ask any more questions. I'll just wait and see what Li Qi'an is really capable of!"
…
Madam Xiao came, bringing fifty pieces of women's armor to Li Qi'an in exchange for salt.
When she came to Beiba Village again, she was filled with emotion.
Maybe this is my last visit to Beiba Village.
Everything from the past also came to her mind.
The days in Beiba Village were probably the most relaxing and happiest for her.
But nothing can ever go back to the way it was before.
"Li Qian, I have brought the armor. Do you have your salt?"
Li Qian smiled and said, "Ms. Xiao, after this time, do you think we will never have any friendship again?"
"Li Qian, I have already told you what I need to say. After this time, I don't want to see you again, nor do I want to see you again!"
