Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 307: Banquet
The fragrance lingers.
The white smoke is like a dragon.
On the couch, two pipes were crossed together, and the tobacco in the pot was burning red.
Lu Tong squinted his eyes, opened his mouth and spat out a white dragon.
Next to her, Mrs. Ninth was covered in sweat, soft on the pillow and spitting out a white dragon of thick smoke.
One after another.
After a while, the palm-sized tobacco bag was smoked out by the two of them.
Lu Tong put his pipe under the bed and asked, "Have you been doing business with Dahe Grain Company recently?"
"Huh?"
Mrs. Ninth's cheeks were rosy, she rolled her eyelids softly and said, "You also want to check the accounts?"
Lu Tong snorted and reached out to slap him hard.
"Bang!"
A burst of white flesh trembled.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you fat?"
Just two words were like igniting fire oil.
Madam Ninth immediately dropped her pipe, pushed it out with all her strength, stared and said: "Get off!"
Lu Tong remained motionless, smiled, and asked again: "What do you think of Dahe Food Store?"
Madam Ninth realized that it was serious business, pushed her a few more times, and put her temper away.
"How about what?"
"Is there anything fishy?"
"Yes, every chamber of commerce has its tricksters. They swallow money and ask for bribes. Letting people touch money is like letting a dog look at meat. They are exactly the same at heart."
Lu Tongtong: "That's not the case. What about Meng Dahe, is there something fishy about him?"
"I don't know, it's mysterious. We have been together for so long, and we have only met twice, and the total amount is less than a cup of tea."
"If the Mengda River doesn't come out, who has the final say in the grain store's business?"
"Two, no, now there are three. Ma Lankui, Meng Dahe's brother-in-law, is responsible for mountain goods. Shopkeeper Hu is responsible for all the business of the grain store. There is also Hu Lian, shopkeeper Hu The newly adopted son. Shopkeeper Hu is getting old and is ready to retire and hand over the business to Hu Lian."
Lu Tong asked again: "Who is Meng Dahe's backer? Such a big business as a grain store needs at least a golden elixir monk to cover it."
"This is not easy to find out. Except for me, you can't find out anywhere else even if you ask a hundred or ten thousand people."
Mrs. Ninth became a traitor.
He turned his head and smiled, and said: "I would have known better to hand over the Chamber of Commerce to you."
"You are just talking cheaply now, why did you go there earlier?"
Lu Tong sighed, took out a small bottle of Goddess Tears, fed a few drops into Madam Ninth's mouth, and put the small bottle next to the pillow.
"You are not a fool who doesn't understand people well, so why waste such useless words."
Madame Ninth raised her neck and swallowed the tears of the goddess. The coolness that soaked into my heart dissipated, and waves of warm spiritual energy rolled through my body, making my whole body feel very comfortable.
"I like to hear it. Just think of me as a fool and say more."
"Don't make trouble."
Lu Tong spread his arms.
Madam Ninth raised her head very naturally, rested it on her arms, and said slowly: "His backing is a mountain. Disciples of Yiyi Sect studied and practiced in Zhiming Mountain before joining the sect. Over the years, Dahe Liangxing has been Send the best spiritual rice to Zhiming Mountain without taking any money."
Lu Tong was somewhat impressed.
The amount of spiritual rice consumed by Zhiming Mountain every day is not a small amount. Meng Dahe is willing to give away such a huge benefit. No wonder he is where he is today.
"He also gives away spiritual rice and makes it cheap for ordinary people. Judging from this, the Meng Mansion's family should not be very rich."
"Very thin."
Mrs. Ninth smiled and said: "Meng Dahe is very greedy. After eating and drinking the money he earns every year, after deducting wages and rewards, not much is left."
"How do you know?"
"That brother-in-law from Meng Dahe has become obsessed with the sister of the Fu family and often comes here to have fun. Every time he comes here, he shows off and reveals a lot. Zhimingshan is also the one who told her."
Lu Tong was silent for a while, thought for a while, and said, "Prepare a banquet for me."
"Are you hungry?"
Madam Ninth said as she stood up.
Lu Tong shook his head and said slowly: "If I don't eat it, let Meng Dahe eat it. The cook must be good, and the food must be good. Jieshui Lake, Jinchi Lake, Yangxu Desert, Baiye Icefield, every place is indispensable. ."
"With such a big battle, what do you want from him?"
He took out a small jade figure and gave a general introduction to "Innocent Qi".
Madam Ninth smiled and said: "Do you have many of these? Give me a few. I know an old sister who used to be a midwife. Now she has several apprentices who are still helping people deliver babies."
Lu Tong was very surprised. He immediately took out twenty little beauties and handed them over, smiling and saying: "Old Jiu, you are really the treasure in my arms!"
"Bah! Who is in your arms?"
……
Two days later, in Qihe Garden.
Lu Tong faced the mirror.
The man in the mirror has a red face, golden eyebrows and a golden beard. The inner layer is a middle coat dyed with dark patterns and gold, and the outer layer is a dragon robe with a hundred flowers. On the white robe are green dragons, white clouds, and flowers of various colors.
He raised his tiger paw and said, "Layer after layer, it's so slow and uncomfortable."
Dian Si'er said: "I'm having a banquet tonight, not doing anything."
Lu Tong shook his head and said: "Meng Dahe doesn't seem like someone who cares about this. He is not willing to help, and it is not enough to wear a hundred layers of clothes."
Dian Si'er came out of the book street and understood a lot of things, but the more he understood, the more trouble he had.
"Okay."
Dian Si'er inserted a Crouching Tiger gold hairpin into his hair and said, "Are you bringing someone over tonight?"
"No need. Meng Dahe has something in his heart. Too many people will be a bad thing."
At night.
To the east of Yunying City, there is a mansion without an owner. Two lanterns are hung at the door of the mansion.
Lu Tong stood under the lantern.
A very ordinary carriage came, with a sword-carrying monk on each side of the carriage.
Meng Dahe got off the car.
Lu Tong greeted him and said, "Mr. Meng, it's been a hard journey, please come in."
Meng Dahe nodded, with two large strips of fat piling up on his lower jaw.
The two entered the door.
On the left side of the door is a plate of frosty white fruits, as well as a set of teapots and teacups.
Lu Tong picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, handed it over and said: "Try the needle chrysanthemum tea from Baiye Icefield."
"Okay."
Meng Dahe's eyes brightened slightly, he took the tea cup and drank it in one gulp, then said with a smile: "Not bad."
After saying that, without waiting for Lu Tong’s introduction, he directly took the white fruit next to him, put it into his mouth and chewed it, making a sound of ice cubes breaking.
"Ice-skin walnut, not bad!"
Lu Tong showed a smile on his face and said: "Master Meng is well-informed. You can identify the rare things I specially selected."
"Haha."
After entering the door, there is a courtyard that occupies a large area.
Four square tables were placed in the four corners of the yard, and each table was filled with food. Red, green, purple, yellow, each table is a color, not a single color.
Meng Dahe stood at the entrance. He couldn't close his mouth with laughter after taking one look at it, and nodded several times. ~IndoMTL.com~ Shopkeeper Lu is very interested. ”
Lu Tong felt slightly calm.
It seems that Meng Dahe has not seen much of the world, and tonight's pomp is enough to pass the time.
"The snacks found in the south, north and north, you try to see if they are authentic or not."
"Okay."
Meng Dahe strode into the courtyard, walked to the table without picking up the kuaizi, and directly reached out to grab two red pastries and stuffed them into his mouth.
The food looks very ugly.
Lu Tong frowned.
The next moment, he seemed to have seen nothing, his expression returned to his natural state, and he went over to follow him.
Four-color pastries in the courtyard, five tables of dinners in the hall, a hundred plates of side dishes in the garden, two cauldrons of yin and yang soup in the bedroom...
There are hundreds of styles along the way.
Meng Dahe didn't let go of any of them. Those he didn't like would eat a few bites less, and those he liked would be wiped out.
Lu Tong became more and more frightened as he walked.
Such a lot of food was enough for him to eat for half a month, but Meng Dahe's face looked very natural after eating, no different from when he walked in.
Finally walked to the backyard.
Outside the quiet woods, nineteen kinds of desserts and tea to relieve tiredness were placed on the long table.
Meng Dahe picked up a bowl of iced candied dates, drank most of the bowl in one gulp, finished another gulp, put down the bowl with satisfaction, and rubbed his belly.
"Not bad."
"As long as Master Meng likes it."
Meng Dahe nodded, looked at the things on the table, and sighed: "It's a pity that we can't finish such good things, and it will be wasted if we leave them here."
Lu Tong hesitated, wondering if Meng Dahe wanted to fight them all away.
At this time, Meng Dahe said: "I will ask shopkeeper Hu to come over later and he will handle it."
After that, he walked towards the back door.
Lu Tong's eyes lit up and he immediately followed him to see him off.
Things are almost done.
Shopkeeper Hu is the one who handles things. Meng Dahe has passed here. Specific matters only need to be discussed with Manager Hu.
