Chapter 164
On the way back, Shen Wu kept looking down at the porcelain bottle in his hand.

Seeing this, the attendant filled a cup of tea and said:

"Fifth Master, do you really admit it like this? Can this medicine really work? He hasn't even seen that person—"

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Wu directly held the porcelain bottle in his hand.

"How do you know he hasn't seen it?"

The waiter looked surprised, "Since he has seen it, why?"

"Who says he's seen it?"

"what?"

Now the waiter was really confused, not understanding what his master meant.

And Shen Wu held the porcelain bottle in his hand expressionlessly and said: "We have been looking for him for three full years, do you think he doesn't know?"

"This--"

The waiter was hesitant when he heard the words. In fact, they had been searching hard for the past three years. They had just heard about the whereabouts of the old man, but before he arrived, he disappeared again.

Repeat this no less than ten times, and you will miss it every time.

Sometimes they all think that this old man is just a joke.

"What is this?"

Shen Wu smiled faintly, "We have been looking for him for so long, so why is he not clear? We have been searching for three years, why did we succeed this time?"

"Yeah, the little one is also quite puzzled."

The waiter looked puzzled, "Could it be because of Mrs. Xia? Didn't she say that she is the closed disciple of old genius doctor Xue?"

At this time, Shen Wu picked up the tea bowl, blew lightly on the foam on the tea bowl, took a sip and said: "Yes, and it's not—"

"It's not so much because of Mrs. Xia, a closed disciple. I'm more curious about the relationship between that Lu Guogong and that Lu Xiucai."

The waiter was stunned.

"Lu Guogong? With Lu Xiucai? What kind of relationship can they have?"

Eight poles can't hit it, okay?

"What are you talking about? Didn't you find that Lu Xiucai looks familiar? Does he look a bit like Lu Guogong and his wife?"

"Also, the Duke of Lu was assassinated, and he is an imposing Duke who holds real power in his hands. Why did he appear in such a remote place as Ququan Town? What is he doing here? Travel lightly, what does he want to come here to see? person?"

"Why did Divine Doctor Xue turn around and come to him when his back foot was injured?"

"Is it really for his own healing? Not for something else? Didn't Lu Xiucai break his leg recently, how could there be such a coincidence in the world?"

After saying so much in one breath, the waiter was completely dumbfounded.

"Master, it is indeed a bit of a coincidence for you to say that."

Shen Wu looked at the tea bowl with a serious expression and said, "How can there be such a coincidence in the world? Someone—"

As soon as the words fell, a person quickly appeared outside the carriage and responded apologetically, "This subordinate is here."

"Eight hundred miles, hurry up and send this letter to the capital."

"Yes."

"Also, let the people in the capital thoroughly investigate Duke Lu's mansion, especially what happened 20 years ago, everything is fine."

"Yes."

"Order someone to check Lu Jingyuan's life experience and hand it over to me."

Xia Xiaoqiao didn't know, but she just came to eat a meal, and the other party actually asked her family to check everything up.

At this moment, she was in a daze at the door of the bookstore.

"Quick, cousin Dashan, let me pinch me."

"Sister-in-law you?"

Lu Dashan looked puzzled, but before he finished speaking, his eyes widened in pain, and he grinned, "Ah, it hurts, it hurts so much——"

"It hurts? It's just that it hurts. I thought I was dreaming."

Xia Xiaoqiao was holding the 200 taels silver note in her hand at the moment, and she was extremely excited, "It turned out to be true."

It's just an ordinary word, but it can be exchanged for a 200 taels bank note?

To be honest, it is too exaggerated.

Then he thought of the words that Lu Jingyuan had placed casually at home, and his eyes lit up.

"No, I have to go back quickly, it's a waste of money, okay?"

Those useless words are all white money~
How can she be so prodigal when she is as poor as her?
And Lu Dashan still hasn't figured it out, what's going on?
How can a good-looking person go crazy after going to a bookstore?

Look, pinch him.

It's all purple.

But Xia Xiaoqiao didn't have time to take care of him, she wished she could fly back to Luxi Village right now.

However, when she rushed back and searched every corner of the house, inside and out, she couldn't find a single chapter of waste paper, so she suddenly became anxious.

"Lu Jingyuan, what about the words you wrote earlier? Where did they go?"

As a result, a certain person was sitting on a stone bench under the tree, sipping tea and reading a book without even looking at her, and said in a flat voice, "It's burning."

"what?"

"Burned?"

Xia Xiaoqiao was not feeling well, so she rushed to him, "Why did you get burned?"

That's white money.

Why didn't she realize that this man was such a prodigal?

And looking at the little money fan in front of him, the corners of Lu Jingyuan's mouth were slightly raised, and his voice was also tinged with a bit of lightness.

"If you don't burn it, why keep it?"

After saying this, he turned his face slowly, glanced at her faintly and said with a smile, "Maybe it's waiting for you to exchange it for silver?"

"you?"

Xia Xiaoqiao sat down opposite him, and said speechlessly, "Since you can change money, why not change it?"

"Don't you know that there is a shortage of money now?"

After speaking, he slapped the 200 taels on the stone table, "200 taels, a piece of paper is only a few dozen words, and 200 taels of silver—"

How valuable is this word?

Let’s put it this way, at this moment, one penny can buy three eggs, and one thousand taels is always equal to one tael of silver, so you can buy 3000 eggs, and 100 taels means adding two zeros after it, and 30,000 eggs, if You can save [-] yuan if you get the future generations.

That 200 taels is equivalent to a small 60,000 yuan.

Although it is not accurate to use eggs as a metaphor for prices, it is not old or young anyway.

You always write that this is gold, right?

But Lu Jingyuan had a calm expression on his face, apparently he already knew about it.

"It's only 200 taels of silver."

Xia Xiaoqiao curled her lips, "It's only 200 taels??? Tsk tsk——"

I've never seen anything like this in Versailles.

"Bring it-"

Xia Xiaoqiao suddenly stretched out her hand, and Lu Jingyuan froze for a moment, "What?"

"Those words you wrote before? You don't think 200 taels is too little, but I don't. I'll go to the shopkeeper of the bookstore and exchange it for silver."

She doesn't have any points now, she is poor and white.

"Burn, really burn."

"you--"

Xia Xiaoqiao was very angry with him, and Lu Jingyuan immediately poured her a cup of tea and said, "Be quiet and don't be impatient, drink some tea to get rid of anger."

It's a pity that Xia Xiaoqiao didn't respond at all.

Lu Jingyuan had no choice but to sigh: "Things are rare and expensive——"

Xia Xiaoqiao: ".?!"

After hearing this, she felt bad all over.

Heh, are you playing tricks here?

She didn't know what to say.

But seeing someone's open face, she couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.

"Okay, you are amazing!"

What more can she say?
Sure enough, she thought it was too simple!
