Reading: Beginning as the Dean of the Academy

Chapter 43 Xianmi
After half an hour.

Twenty thousand catties of rice were transported to the mountain, and Li Zian also came with the grain transportation team.

"Brother, don't say anything. You help me this time. If you point to the east in the future, I will never go to the west, and I will not sue you in front of my parents and grandpa."

Before Li Zian could speak, Li Zixuan set out her own conditions first.

"Are you serious?"

Li Zian was a little curious, what kind of handsome man could make his sister make such a big sacrifice.

"Brother, your sister is the only boy I've fallen in love with in so many years, do you think I'm just joking?"

"Look at it first."

Li Zian did not agree. As an older brother, he had to escort his younger sister. The elders in the family naturally hoped that his younger sister would find a good family, but he only wanted his younger sister to be happy. As long as you have a good character and treat your sister well, that's fine.

To put it bluntly, as long as the Li family is there, with just a few helping hands, my brother-in-law can win over 95% of the families in the country.

Li Zian walked towards the pawnshop, while Ming was still standing inside the counter, playing with his mobile phone, showing no intention of greeting him.

"It looks good, but this attitude is not good."

Li Zian's first impression of Ming was not very good, Li Zixuan quickly explained: "Brother, he is busy with business."

"You think I can't understand what "pentaQ" stands for?"

Li Zixuan had a sullen expression on her face. Knowing that she couldn't explain it, she ignored her elder brother and said to Ming at the counter, "Boss, the [-] catties of rice you asked for has arrived. Do you want to check and accept it?"

"No, your rice doesn't meet the requirements."

Without raising his head, the words he said stunned the people present.

non-compliant.

Isn't it all rice, and there are still some that don't meet the requirements?
"Boss, it's enough to exchange [-] catties of rice for a badge."

Li Zian's face darkened. He also knew the badge. It was an early batch of badges. In fact, it didn't have much collection value. It was only because his grandfather seemed to care about this batch of badges that he agreed to spend [-] on his sister. I bought a catty of rice and gave it to my grandfather.

"It's different, what I gave back then was not ordinary rice."

"It's not just ordinary rice, but it can also be immortal rice. Boss, it's too much."

"Brother... don't worry."

Li Zixuan saw that her brother's face darkened, feeling bad, she quickly comforted her brother, and at the same time said to Ming: "Boss, if our rice is short, I can make up the difference for you."

"I only need rice and don't need money. My rice grains are three inches long, and I can nourish my energy and spirit. I can eat it for a month without all diseases, and I can eat it for three months without impurities..."

"How can there be such rice in this world? I think you are honest and don't want to sell it. Sister, let's go."

Li Zian couldn't listen anymore, this rice was boasting like a panacea, there is no such rice in the world, it is clear that he sincerely wants to blackmail.

"Brother... I'll go with you."

Although Li Zixuan was captured by Ming's oppression, she hadn't lost her mind and felt that the other party was going too far. How could there be such a rice in this world.

It's a pity, such a good skin.

Unwilling, brother and sister Li Zixuan walked out of the pawnshop, only to find that Chen Xinyu was not outside.

"Sister Xinyu must have gone to the academy, brother, let's go to the academy to find sister Xinyu."

When Li Zixuan walked into the academy, she quickly saw Su Le and Chen Xinyu standing in front of the academy lobby and chatting.

"Sister Xinyu, I'm so mad."

Stepping forward, Li Zixuan happened to be in between Su Le and Chen Xinyu very casually.

"What's the matter, did your brother make you unhappy?"

"It's not my brother, it's the owner of the pawnshop who promised [-] catties of rice in exchange for a badge. There is no such rice in the world that is immune to all diseases, it is clearly making things difficult."

Chen Xinyu was a little surprised, so the pawnbroker is so greedy?
But Su Le at the side didn't think so, the owner of a dignified soul pawnshop would not deceive ordinary people.

"What's going on, can you tell me to listen?"

Li Zixuan didn't want to talk about this matter anymore, Chen Xinyu briefly explained the matter, Su Le understood, he had also seen that red badge before.

"I don't think the pawnshop owner is talking nonsense, and there are indeed records about Xianmi in history. In "Tang Banshu Qitan", there is a record that a local commoner found it in a valley. There is an acre of rice field, the rice grains are full, and the fragrance of the rice can be smelled from a distance. The commoner saw that there was no one in the valley, so he took the rice home."

"Later, a severe plague occurred in the local area, and the ten rooms were empty, but the family was fine. This aroused the curiosity of the local county magistrate. After some investigation, they finally believed that the problem was the rice. Unfortunately, All the rice was eaten by the family, and only one spoon was left, and this spoon was later bought by the local gentry at a high price."

"The local people feel that this must be the rice planted by the gods in the valley, not ordinary rice, but immortal rice."

After Su Le finished speaking, Li Zian frowned, and said, "The ancients' strange stories cannot be taken as true."

"Su Le, do you know something?"

Chen Xinyu looked at Su Le. She always felt that what Su Le said meant something. The most important thing was that she had seen some weird and weird stories for a while. Many things that she didn't believe before had appeared in front of her.

"The owner of a pawn shop is not simple, he is not an ordinary person."

Su Le said with emotion, he believed that Chen Xinyu could understand the meaning of these words.

Sure enough, Chen Xinyu had a thoughtful look on her face, and the first thing she thought of was Qingmei. Could it be that the pawnbroker is also a ghost?

"Whether it's simple or not, my love fantasy has been shattered anyway."

Li Zixuan looked hopeless, but at this moment Li Zian's cell phone rang. After checking the number, she said seriously, "Grandpa's phone."

Hearing that it was Grandpa's call, Li Zixuan suddenly became quiet.

"Grandpa, what's the matter?"

"Grandpa Qu is dying? Ah...Okay, I'll take my sister back to the capital right now."

Li Zian hung up the phone with a very serious expression, and said to his sister: "Grandpa Qu may be dying, grandpa told us to rush back to the capital immediately."

"Ah, how could Grandpa Qu..."

Li Zixuan couldn't believe it. Grandpa Qu was her grandfather's old brother. Grandpa would take them to visit Grandpa Qu every year. In Li Zixuan's heart, Grandpa Qu was no different from her own.

Upon hearing the news, her expression immediately became sad.

"Xin Yu, Grandpa Qu has an unusual relationship with our family, he is my grandfather's good friend."

Seeing Chen Xinyu's doubts, Li Zian explained that the relationship between the Li family and the Chen family is unusual. If something happened to the elders of the Li family, Chen Xinyu would definitely ask, so Li Zian explained first.

"My grandfather and Grandpa Qu worked in the same commune back then, and there was a great famine. Grandpa Qu took out the rice from nowhere and saved the people in the commune. Unfortunately, Grandpa Qu lost his badge later... "

Halfway through the speech, Li Zian suddenly couldn't continue.

Rice, badges...

A certain thought flashed through his mind, not only him, but Li Zixuan also thought of it.

It was because I didn't think about it before. After all, my grandfather just mentioned that about Grandpa Qu, and it's been so many years, so I didn't think about it for a while.

Among the people at the scene, only Su Le knew best, perhaps that Grandpa Qu was the one who made a deal with Ming.

"If possible, I think you guys might as well make a phone call to find out." Su Le said.
