Chapter 22 Meeting Li Decai

The entire Longtou Town is not very big. Zhang Rui followed the workers of the Li Mansion to circle around and arrived at the Li Mansion soon.

A typical courtyard with three entrances and three exits, with a pair of stone lions at the door, and the words Li Mansion are written on the eaves.

Under the leadership of the workers of the Li Mansion, Zhang Rui went directly to the front living room of the Li Mansion.

The front living room is divided into primary and secondary seats. As soon as Zhang Rui entered the living room, he saw Pang Tong sitting on the secondary seat. The master sat on the seat with a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe, probably Li Decai.

As soon as Zhang Rui entered the house, he saluted the two people in the house and said, "I have seen Li Li, and Shopkeeper Pang is here too!"

"Yes, Brother Six, isn't this coming back to discuss your food purchase with your boss?" Pang Tong also responded to Zhang Liugong and said

"You are the sixth brother? I heard from my housekeeper Li Hun that when the bandits entered the village, you killed seven bandits by yourself. You are such a young hero." Li Decai, who was sitting on the seat, sat there and looked at Zhang Rui for a while and said.

"As the village chief of Datong Village, I was ashamed when the bandits entered the village. Fortunately, such a heroic boy appeared in our Datong Village to save the villagers from the trouble. It is a great thing. You said yes! Manager Pang."

"Yes, the boss is really a blessing. I congratulate you to Datong Village." Pang Tong said, but thought to himself: "I guess you want him to die immediately!"

"I heard that Li Hun said that Brother Six is ​​interested in buying grain?" At this time, Li Decai was looking at Zhang Rui and said

"Yes, Li Li. If the price is right, I will buy some." Zhang Rui replied without saying a word

Li Decai said in a angrily questioning, "Then what price do you think is the right one?"

"I probably told Manager Pang about this price." Zhang Rui said calmly.

"Bang"

Li Decai smashed the table next to the owner's seat with tea cups and cursed angrily:

"Dog, are you going to buy food? The daily food price is not so cheap in normal times. Are you going to be a bookmaker?"

"You are grown up inside, how dare you? If you think you are at a loss, you can't sell it. I didn't force it. Do you think so?" Zhang Rui looked at Li Decai with contempt and said, "

Li Decai suddenly raised his tone: "Is this nothing to discuss?"

"No, there is something to discuss."

Hearing Zhang Rui's words, the anger on Li Decai's face suddenly faded.

"I decided to collect one or two white rice, one stone, eight cents per stone of yellow millet, and five cents per stone of soybeans. I'll see if the grown-ups are willing to sell me, so please take care of the villagers in the same village."

Zhang Rui, who spoke, ignored Li Decai at all, and seemed to be unrelated to whether he bought it or not. At this moment, Li Decai's face, which had already been relieved, immediately turned dark. Seeing Zhang Rui's look at him, he roared angrily: "What do you mean? Are you trying to force me to take action?"

As he said that, he was about to pick up the teacup and smash it over!

"Try it?"

A very calm, cold voice came out

Li Decai saw Zhang Rui's cold eyes looking at him, and suddenly he felt his anger all over his body as if he had hit a glacier and immediately removed it.

The six bodies with separate bodies brought back by Li Hun were flashed in his mind, with the scars and eyes dying with Lei Bao. Li Hun said that Zhang Rui did not pass the fourth move when he killed Lei Bao.

Li Decai thought he had killed someone, but compared with Zhang Rui, he was determined and decisive and merciless. He should not offend such a tough character. There is no need to fight against such a poor and cruel character. It is not cost-effective.

Anyway, Li Hun has gone to Zhilianshan to move bandits, and I don’t believe he can stop dozens of bandits. As long as he dies, is the money my food or mine? How much money is sold to me is just a false matter. As long as the money is in my hands, even if it is sold to you by five cents and one stone, you will have to have a life to get it.

Li Decai took the teacup he picked up and drank it into his mouth, then put it down. He smiled and said, "I said, "

"Brother Six, I misunderstood. I mean to sell your food, so just follow the price you said!"

When Pang Tong heard this, he felt that he had heard it wrong. Didn’t he say that he could only follow the usual price? Didn’t he say that he wanted to threaten him, but if he really couldn’t do it, he would let the thugs kill him? Why did everything change and it became so fast. He sold his food before he could react, but it was still at the bottom of the price before.



"Shopkeeper Pang"

Li Decai called Pang Tong twice in a row, and Pang Tong reacted

"Boss, what are your instructions?" Pang Tong stood up from his seat and asked Li Decai and said, "

"You sell him the food at the price of Brother Six, and tell him the specific conditions together." As he said that, Li Decai picked up the teacup again and took another sip of tea.

"Sixth brother, can you tell me why the price has been reduced again?" Pang Tong asked Zhang Rui in confusion about the sudden price of grain again.

"Nothing is there. I just came to the town and spent more than 100 taels of silver. I was short of some money, so I got some back when I bought the grain."

After hearing Zhang Rui's words, Pang Tong and Li Decai couldn't help but curse. What's the matter? You spent money and actually came to me to make money. But who cares how annoying a dying person is?

"Brother Six, this is what we mean here. You can buy grain, but you must buy more than 500 taels of grain. Moreover, the grain you bought cannot be taken away by the Li family warehouse within one month, so as to prevent you from selling it if you take it away."

Pang Tong took out the abacus in his hand and said seriously to Zhang Rui.

"If Brother Six does not agree, we will not sell food."

"This is easy to say. Can you eat the food I bought for 500 taels? Don't give it to me if there is no food at that time." Zhang Rui asked in surprise.

"Ha ha……"

"Ha ha!"

When Li Decai and Pang Tong heard Zhang Rui's questions, they couldn't help laughing.

"The sixth brother was worried in vain. He thought that Li Decai was a grain merchant. There were not many other things, and there were some grains. I just stored nearly a thousand stones of grain in the granary of Datong Village, so I can afford to pay even more than one thousand taels of grain."

"That's fine. Don't give me no food then, then I won't be polite. Also, after I buy the food, I have to take away ten stones of white rice, ten stones of yellow millet and ten stones of beans." Zhang Rui said bluntly.

Pang Tong was not good at making decisions about Zhang Rui's words and had to look at Li Decai. Li Decai's fingers gently tapped the table, thought for a while, and said

"Okay, I promise you."

"Okay, Li Li grows so happy, then I, Zhang Liu, can't get any more cheap and behave like a good person. This is five hundred taels of silver bills." As he said that, Zhang Rui took out the silver bill in his arms and raised it in his hand, and continued to say

"I want to buy three hundred and fifty stones of white rice, one hundred stones of yellow millet, and one hundred and forty stones of soybeans."

Li Decai was very surprised that Zhang Rui gave such a number in such a short time. He said he could not calculate it himself. How could a person who had never read a book since childhood calculate such a calculation? Li Decai expressed doubts and then looked at Pang Tong.

Pang Tong was holding the abacus in his hand and making some calculations. Finally, he showed a shocked expression on his face. After nodding at Li Decai, he couldn't help but admire Zhang Rui again.

"Sixth brother is really easy to learn. There is no mistake in such a short period of time."

"I've been too much, I just learned some basic knowledge." Zhang Rui said, unable to help but complain in his heart. It's just a simple calculation of the Nine-Nine Multiplication formula. How big is it?

The two parties signed the contract at the end, and Zhang Rui also paid 500 taels of silver notes.

After Zhang Rui left, Li Decai suddenly felt that if he didn't do it well, he would lose some rice. Li Decai didn't know why he felt this way. Looking at Zhang Rui's back as he left, he couldn't help but recite:

"Disappointment is an illusion, otherwise a remarkable person would really appear in our Datong Village."
