Hu Luanfei raised her head shyly, her hands unconsciously grasping his clothes on her chest, and advised: "Master, it's fifty taels each..."

"I won't sell one for a hundred taels."

The women were stunned. "Business is coming to you, why don't you do it?"

"You can do it or not." Qi Siliao said coldly.

I don't know who made him unhappy, but his attitude became cold and unkind.

Hu Luanfei was about to speak when the women started to whisper to each other about something. However, they soon gave their reply, saying that they wanted to buy all the rams.

This suddenly reminded me of what the sheep seller at the market gate said: a male sheep can usually be sold for ten taels, so a wild ram must be sold for at least twenty taels...

"Fifty taels each, not all for sale."

The wind blowing from the wild brought Hu Luanfei back to his senses after being silent for a long time. "Sir, isn't it expensive?"

"If they want it, it's not expensive."

She turned around and looked at the women for a long time. They were hesitating. One of them said something and left in a hurry. The three who stayed looked around the surrounding environment.

A touch of green dotted the barren land. Their eyes lit up and they pointed and asked, "Is that your garden too?"

"Yes." Hu Luanfei nodded and asked, "Aunt, do you need some vegetables? We grow them at home, they are sweet and refreshing and taste good."

Her answer did not surprise them too much. After taking a look at the receding figure, they supported each other and walked away.

Qi Siliao took his hand back and straightened her body. "Where did you meet them?"

"Under the old tree over there, I thought they were suspicious so I asked them a few more questions. Then they said they wanted to buy sheep, so I brought them here."

"If you meet someone like this again, don't bother with him."

"Oh..." She hung her head, thinking of his reaction just now, and asked in confusion: "Why do you refuse to sell the pregnant ewes to them?"

"You have lived in the palace for so long that you don't know the hell of the world. I have led troops for many years and have seen a lot. Once when I passed by Beiqiu Country, the dignitaries there gave me a hard lesson."

"what class?"

"The pregnant ewes were their food, and the cooking method was extremely cruel. Even if we were soldiers fighting on the battlefield, we couldn't accept it. That scene will be unforgettable for the rest of our lives."

Cruel cooking method...

Hu Luanfei recalled seeing similar news on the Internet before, exactly like that...

She was stunned, and tears immediately blurred her eyes when she saw the ewe licking the lamb with overflowing maternal love.

I originally thought that such cruel methods only appeared in modern times, but I didn't expect that they were popular in ancient times.

Woo…

Those women looked like decent human beings and were all matriarchal. How could they have the heart to do that?

"Don't cry. You can't do business if you are too kind-hearted."

"Well... wait until they grow up."

"it is good."

After taking a look at the sky, Hu Luanfei put away his sadness, and the women also returned from the vegetable garden.

Coincidentally, the woman who had left earlier appeared in front of everyone, panting with several young servants.

"Madam said that rams are fine, but ewes are better, especially..."

Qi Si Liao refused again in a cold voice: "We will keep two rams and will not sell any ewes. You can take them if you want."

There's no way they can do business with this attitude.

"Okay, don't get excited. My wife said that as long as the sheep are wild, we can cooperate in the future."

After the woman finished speaking, Hu Luanfei was stunned. Is this even possible? !

He couldn't help but look up at Qi Siliao, who had a stern expression on his face, and ask for his opinion.

He just squatted down, picked up a few stones and threw them at the flock of sheep. Without scaring the ewes, the four rams fell to the ground and could not get up.

Hu Luanfei was not the only one who was stunned. All the outsiders present were also shocked.

Qi Si Liao ignored everyone and said coldly to the servants: "I just pressed the acupoints, tie them up tightly, don't let them run away."

He made way for the servants, and after they responded, he went in with ropes and tied up the ram.

While the servants were busy, the women were not idle either, because they noticed that the vegetables in the garden were growing better than those in other gardens, and were thinking of going down to harvest them.

Unexpectedly, I have particularly good luck today.

Including the money for the vegetables, the woman gave a total of 170 taels, and also left her contact information, saying that they were from the Wang family in the northwest city of Beiqiu.

Hu Luanfei said a few polite words and sent them away.

When this group of people left the village, they attracted a lot of onlookers. Everyone couldn't understand when the Qi family had so many sheep.

Jiao Lan was there to help, "The Qi family's young couple are good at doing big things. No matter what they do, they always make a bigger noise than others."

Hu Luanfei was secretly unhappy, thinking that the "Sister Lan" the woman had just mentioned was probably her.

Sure enough, it was true. I saw Jiao Lan talking to those women from a distance. The women gave her a heavy bag. I guess it was money, otherwise why would she have such a flattering smile on her face?

"That woman..." Qi Siliao frowned slightly.

"you know?"

"Ah."

Hu Luanfei's warm heart suddenly cooled down. Could it be that the reason Jiao Lan knew about the family affairs was because Qi Siliao told others about it?

In an instant, the spring breeze blew, and the whole person felt like a basin of cold water was poured on the head, cold from head to toe.

No wonder Jiao Lan has been speaking well of him. It turns out that the two of them…

"What's wrong? You're not happy about getting a bargain for free?" He touched her head affectionately. Seeing that she was still listless, he picked a wild flower and pinned it in her hair. "It's much better this way."

Well, this completely aroused someone's anger. Thinking of Jiao Lan's words of praise for him, he felt sour and unhappy.

"Humph! If you don't like it, just leave. I won't stop you!"

Qi Siliao's mind went blank, and he froze in place, "For no reason..."

"What a ghost, I don't want to live with you anymore!"

After saying that, he went home angrily with the silver in his pocket, leaving Qi Siriao alone standing there in a daze, unable to understand what was going on.

The wind was quite strong today, making Hu Luanfei's hair messy. He fiddled with it casually, and as he fiddled, he touched a lavender wild flower.

She grabbed it and snorted "tacky".

"Hey, why don't you really send me off..." Turning around, she saw no figure behind her and realized that Qi Siliao did not follow her home. He was still there, but there was one more person next to him, and that was Jiao Lan.

The two seemed to be old acquaintances, chatting and laughing happily under the flowers, having a great time!

"Hmph, scumbag!"

The flowers were thrown on the ground, alone and exposed to the sun.

Hu Luanfei angrily went into the space, lay on the bed and doubted his life.

Just then, she turned around and found a thick book under the table next to her.

It was an illustrated book of Chinese medicine, which recorded the original appearances of many rare medicinal materials.

She had seen several of them in Menghu Mountain, but she didn't have the knowledge in this area at the time, so she ignored them.

I vaguely remember that the shopkeeper of Baishantang once said that collecting medicinal herbs, it seems that this is also a way to get rich. If we can cultivate them, wouldn’t it be a huge source of wealth?

After thinking about it, his whole facial expression changed, as if he saw himself rolling and cheering in a treasury.

"Hey..."

The sound of the courtyard door outside came, and Hu Luanfei quickly got out.

As soon as she came out, she met Qi Si Liao leading people in. She said "tsk", she might as well continue hiding in the space and daydreaming!
