The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit
Chapter 119 Asking the Door God
Chapter 119 Asking the Door God
Lu Qian had already thought about this problem.
The best way is to make a timer so that they can know the time inside.
You can go to the market tomorrow to take a look around, it shouldn't be difficult.If you don't sell any, it's not a very complicated thing to make a water clock yourself.No matter how bad it is, you can use an hourglass.
When Lu Qian said this idea, the three of them heard this, their eyes lit up, and they looked at Lu Qian with a little more admiration.
"Sanggong, how do you know so much? I only know how to tell the time by looking at the sun."
"Hey, Mr. Xiang knows many tricks."
"Hate."
"My husband is here again."
……
Lu Qian couldn't help being a little speechless, what I said was all serious tricks.
Thinking of this, Lu Qian couldn't help but become active again.
Now that we have the place and the money, we can think about making more things.
Large machinery cannot be done, but some small gadgets can still be done.
It seems that building a new home in the Moon Palace has to be put on the agenda.
However, it all takes people.
It's too risky to find someone to come in from the outside, so let's use our own people.
The four of them moved in the carpet and a low table, sat around the fire, and began to think about their new home.
However, Lu Qian didn't dare to stay in the moon palace space for a long time, even though there were gods and Yulei guarding outside, ghosts and evil spirits could not easily enter.
However, Shen Tu Yu Lei can't control strangers.
After chatting for a while, the four of them came out together, leaving Jing Yanxiu to go in from time to time to take care of Fang Tian, and at the same time began to move all the necessary items into the Moon Palace.
Looking at the increasingly empty room, Lu Qian secretly said: "Tomorrow we have to go to another big purchase."
In the next few days, delivery vehicles came and went in and out of Coffin Alley in the west city of Dinghezhou almost every day.
Regarding the newly moved in Coffin Alley, it inevitably caused some discussions.
However, Lu Qian didn't care about the private discussions of these ordinary people.
However, there was a piece of gossip related to Lu Qian, which came out from nowhere, and quickly spread in the four streets and eight alleys.
……
……
Today, afternoon.
An uninvited guest came to visit suddenly.
This is a middle-aged man, dressed in ordinary clothes, and there is a servant behind him.It looked like someone from a big family.
When the visitor saw Lu Qian, he immediately clasped his fists in both hands, bowed respectfully, and said, "Is it Mr. Lu who dare to ask you face to face?"
Lu Qian nodded.
The person who came said: "This is the housekeeper of the Luo family on Changhe Street, Qi Youming. Please forgive me for taking the liberty to visit."
Lu Qian cupped his hands and said, "You don't have to be polite, butler Qi, come to find Lu, what's the matter?"
Hearing this, Qi Youming frowned.I directly stated my identity, but the other party didn't invite him to sit inside, but stood at the door and spoke directly, it was too impolite.
However, when we met for the first time, Qi Youming didn't have much to say, so he said: "Since the young master asked, then I will speak up."
Lu Qian made a "please" gesture, motioning him to speak directly.
Qi Youming first took a packed red paper bag from the servant behind him, offered it with both hands, and said: "A little meeting ceremony is not a respect, but I hope you will accept it with a smile."
He even brought a gift when he came to visit. This person knows how to be polite.
However, Lu Qian didn't want to get involved with them too much before knowing the intention of the other party's visit, so he didn't accept the gift, but the look on his face has eased a lot.
Lu Qian smiled and said: "Your Excellency, let's talk about things first. If things can't be done, I will accept the gift first. This is not very good."
Qi Youming laughed and said, "My lord, don't worry too much. It's just a brief meeting and a gift. It has nothing to do with what we're talking about."
Seeing this, Lu Qian couldn't shirk anymore, so he had to take it.
Qi Youming then said: "Your Majesty sent me here because of an unfeeling request. I heard that Mr. Lu has a pair of door gods who are very effective. I came here today to ask for each other. I wonder if Mr. Lu is willing to part with you?"
After all, his eyes flicked, and he looked at the Shentu Yulei posted on the door.
Lu Qian was taken aback when he heard the words, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood.
It is rumored that Coffin Lane is so haunted that no one dares to live in the houses here.It has been a few days since Lu Qian moved here, but he is still doing well so far.
This inevitably attracted the attention of interested people.
Mu Xiuyu Lin, it seems quite difficult to really keep a low profile.
There are too many caring people, and they are too caring.
They actually attributed this to the pair of door gods posted on Lu Qian's door, and they don't know who spread the word first.
Lu Qian pondered for a while, then pointed to the god Tu Yulei pasted on the door, and asked, "I don't know, I am a door god, where did you hear about it?"
Qi Youming smiled and said, "It's just a rumor."
Lu Qian said with a smile: "Your Excellency and Your Majesty are both rich families, how can you listen to these rumors. These are just two ordinary door gods, and there is nothing special about them."
Qi Youming was not surprised by Lu Qian's reply.People in this world who throw eagles when they don't see rabbits are only a minority after all.
Qi Youming glanced at Lu Qian up and down, as if he wanted to judge his wealth from his clothes.
In the end, Qi Youming gritted his teeth and said, "My master, I would like to give you 500 taels of silver. Can you think about it, my lord?"
Wenyin 500 taels is not a small amount.
However, compared with the efficacy of Shentu Yulei's evil spirit town house, it is far from enough.
It's a pity that only Lu Qian can use the pair of door gods.Someone else took it, and it was just two ordinary paper-cuts, without any gods.
Lu Qian smiled lightly, and said, "Isn't it too bad to pay 500 taels for respect and buy two pieces of paper?"
As he spoke, he shook his head.
Qi Youming's expression suddenly changed.
500 taels of silver is not a small amount for many wealthy families.
However, when the other party heard it, he didn't even blink his eyelids.
Hasty, low bid.
But the more so, the more it shows that the rumors are true.
It seems that this Young Master Lu's door god really has some skills.
Otherwise, a fool would not exchange 500 taels of silver for two pieces of paper.
In fact, Qi Youming, including his master, didn't quite believe in the legend of this door god before he came.
Therefore, his asking price of 500 taels was just a test.
If the other party sells it quickly, then this door god may not be as magical as it is said in the legend.But it doesn't matter, their Luo family only lost 500 taels of silver.
How many grains of rice are needed to cover a bird, let alone this kind of thing?
Seeing Lu Qian's straight refusal, Qi Youming was surprised, but couldn't help but feel eager in his heart.
He thought for a while, then stretched out five fingers, flipped through it again, and said, "1000 taels, is it okay?"
Lu Qian shook his head and said, "It's not about money. As I said, the rumors in the market are not credible."
When Qi Youming heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
After thinking for a while, Qi Youming arched his hands again, and said, "Young Master, you don't want to see Hui, but I'm taking the liberty."
Lu Qian smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "No."
"Stay."
At this time, Xiaofeng came out of the house, walked behind Lu Qian, looked at the backs of the people coming and going, and asked curiously: "Brother Qian, do you know anyone here?"
Lu Qian shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Xiaofeng said: "Then what are they here for?"
Lu Qian pointed at the Shentu Yulei on the door and said, "They want this."
Xiaofeng looked at the door god on the door, blinked, and said with a smile: "Brother Qian, your paper-cutting skills have spread your reputation here."
