Dou Po: My days as a mentor at Canaan College

Chapter 106 Xiao Yan's Commission

After putting away the results of half a day's work, and putting the medicine cauldron in front of him back into the storage ring, Liu Xi got up and sorted out the wrinkled clothes.

"call……"

When it was finally over, he let out a long breath and pushed open the door of the house, but felt that the air outside was...sweet.

"Huh? Brother Xiao Yan?"

As soon as he walked into the open-air courtyard, he saw Xiao Yan who was waiting quietly by the stone table. He was slightly surprised by his arrival. After all, the two had just met yesterday afternoon.

Could it be that the next day I have something to ask him to do it for me?

"Brother Liu, it's over for you..." Seeing him coming out, Xiao Yan greeted him with a smile. At the same time, he glanced at Xiao Yue who was standing by and gave him a wink.

Liu Xi understood immediately, and thought that he really had something to do with him.

It just so happened that he recruited Xiao Yue to him, and handed over the prepared elixir to her, letting her run errands.

After sending Xiao Yue away, there were only him and Xiao Yan left in the courtyard.

"Brother Xiao Yan came to see me for something?"

Liu Xi asked bluntly.

"Haha, Big Brother Liu is really straightforward, he didn't even wait for me to say a few words first." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Hearing this, the corners of Liu Xi's eyes twitched a few times.

Greetings to you, sister?
The two of us just met yesterday, and we completed a... deal with Yao Lao who is behind you.

Fortunately, Xiao Yan didn't use his sense of humor anymore, and then directly took out a list of various medicinal materials and a small and exquisite jade box from the ring.

Liu Xi took the two items from the other party, without saying a word, but waiting for the other party's next words.

"Brother Liu, this jade box contains a Qi Gathering Powder. Last time when our Xiao family was fighting with the Jialie family, I promised to give the price of three Qi Gathering Powder to Yafei at Mittel's auction house. In exchange for her support to the Xiao family, this one is the last one I cashed in to Mittel's auction house.

But this time I plan to entrust you to help me take a trip, because the previous few times, I had too frequent contact with the people in Mittel's auction house, and Ya Fei had already seen through my identity. Although she kept her mouth shut afterwards, since she can I found that there is no guarantee that I will continue to go to the auction house to trade, and my identity will not be exposed to the eyes of others.

At that time, my teacher's situation is very likely to be found out by other people, you know, my teacher is more jealous of others knowing his 'special' existence..."

Part of the reason for wanting to establish a foundation of trust between the two parties, Xiao Yan spent some time explaining to Liu Xi the "twists and turns" behind this commission.

From his point of view, Liu Xi already knew about Yao Lao's special existence, but he just didn't know his specific identity, and it's okay to explain some things in detail.

After all, in addition to this, the two also share a common "biggest secret".

But having said that, Yao Lao's identity, he himself is not clear to this day, every time he asks about it, Yao Lao always talks about other things and doesn't tell him.

After a while, Xiao Yan's words fell, but Liu Xi raised his hand and touched his chin, with a strange expression on his face:

"Brother Xiao Yan, to be honest, you'd better find another person for your entrustment, because Miss Yafei from the Miter Auction House and I...cough cough, there was a little personal misunderstanding some time ago."

At the end of the sentence, he briefly talked about the fact that the original body had asked the Jialie family to send people to capture Yafei for her to play with.

"It turns out that the dead man of the Jialie family who broke into Mittel's auction that night was actually because of you..." After hearing what Liu Xi said, Xiao Yan couldn't laugh or cry.

He happened to be there that night, and in the end he shot at the critical moment and protected Ya Fei.

And that incident was also one of the reasons why the Mittel Auction House branch in Wutan City chose to help the Xiao family from a neutral point of view in the competition between the Xiao family and the Jialie family.

"Yeah, brother Xiao Yan, you know, it's hard to talk about things like this. Women are the ones who hold grudges the most. Although things didn't work out that night, I must be hated by Concubine Ya." Liu Xi smiled wryly.

It can only be said that sometimes when he thinks about those incidents and things one by one, he realizes that the original body has dug a lot of holes for him.

"However, there is no one else who can do this for me now except you. If it were another person, I wouldn't dare to tell him so much. There is also the Qi Gathering Powder and the list of medicinal materials. If they are not complete, they will be banned." People think a lot, even ask questions, if they talk too much afterwards, maybe my father and the elders will know about it, and if they ask to see my teacher, I can't refuse..."

Xiao Yan pressed his temple and said worriedly.

Seeing his appearance, Liu Xi originally wanted to say, you can ask Xiao Xun'er to do it for you, and with his little affection for you, he would definitely keep your mouth shut, but he swallowed the words when he got to his lips.

He didn't believe that Xiao Yan didn't expect Xiao Xun'er. After all, this guy still has the ability to "follow the soft rice but stick to it".

"Forget it, I went to Mittel's auction house as a customer to patronize their business after all. Even if Yafei didn't like me because of what happened that night, she wouldn't treat me badly. You delivered it." Liu Xi sighed.

In fact, he was so embarrassed on the surface, but he didn't feel that it was too much trouble in his heart, he just wanted Xiao Yan to owe him a favor.

It should be noted that in the morning, he still wanted to go to Mittel's auction house to see if there was a long sword in his hand.

Of course, he did it out of a dark belly, but how bad is it?
That's not.

And does he have to help Xiao Yan with this favor?

He can refuse!

If you choose to help you, it is a kindness no matter what, but it is a duty not to help.

As for Ya Fei's attitude after arriving at the Mittel auction house, he actually didn't take it too seriously. He knew that he grew up in the Mittel family and was instilled in the concept of family education, which is to put personal interests first. Put it last.

As long as he came to the door as a customer, Yafei would definitely bury her emotions in her heart and deal with him with a bright smile.

That woman is from some city...

"Brother Liu, please help me purchase the medicinal materials on the list. You accept this card, and the balance in it should be more than enough to purchase the medicinal materials on the list."

While speaking, Xiao Yan took out a green card with the logo engraved on Mittel's auction house and handed it to him.

Seeing that he accepted it, Xiao Yan said again:
"When you go to give away Qi Gathering Powder, the second-grade pharmacist Gu Ni in the auction house may also be there. Don't look down on that old guy. In fact, he is very smart. He may speak out to test you and ask me." Teacher' identity..."

Liu Xi waved his hand, interrupted him, and said:
"I understand that. When the time comes, no matter whether it's him or Ya Fei, I will still say the same thing. The mysterious person next to you has some relationship with my teacher. I won't say much. In a word, I'll take care of it, don't worry."
