Chapter 14: Ch. 7 Part 2
YanZhi coaxed and he nodded happily in understanding. They paid for their food when they were done and walked out of the restaurant heading towards Huichun shop
" little wife is the price I sold your crystal for okay for you? " YanZhi asked Xiao Ling since they didn’t agree on what price to sell the crystal
" ah it’s more than the price I thought they’d sell for very low... it’s a F grade crystal which is the lowest grade from where I come from and it doesn’t cost much at all and now I have a whole mine of it, I’m going to be rich. " Xiao Ling was delighted ’ speaking of mine I haven’t checked the dungeon since it upgraded, I’ll have to check it later when we get home ’ he thought.
" Hm... the crystals are low tier crafting materials. But I think it would’ve make some more if auctioned, it’s a shame that they are no auction houses in this time and space " YanZhi said in a regretful tone
" then let’s open an auction house... you can craft weapons and items and concoct pills and we’ll auction them and the crystals too " Xiao Ling suggested
" that’s a good idea little wife, but I won’t be doing the crafting and concocting.... my disciples will " said YanZhi
" master I’m getting good at refining pills " Yue happily said as she listened to their conversations
" yes Yue, the the low grade aphrodisiacs you refined are perfect... you’ll start practicing refining middle grade pills soon when you get a hang on refining all low grade pills " she blushed and smiled as YanZhi praised which earned them both strange looks from Xiao Ling ’ what are these people saying?... how can she be happy from being praised because she refined aphrodisiacs, seriously which people are even asking for aphrodisiacs!! ’ Xiao Ling grumbled thinking
" speaking of disciples, do you have a mind of opening a martial arts school? " asked Xiao Ling
" hmm, haven’t thought about it.... maybe I will or will not can’t tell yet "
they walked into Huichun shop and went straight into doctor Shi’s rest room, there were five boxes full of silvers waiting for them when they got there. Doctor Shi opened the boxes filled with silvers for YanZhi to check making the room sparkled brightly, YanZhi closed the boxes and moved them into his pocket space, thanked doctor Shi and left. They walked to a shop selling learning materials and bought a set of learning materials of good quality for Xiao Ling... walked to a shop selling fabrics since they used that as an excuse for Xiao Ling to follow YanZhi to town they had to buy the fabrics tho they didn’t really need it because YanZhi had his personal silk producer which Yue can make them into clothes, the clothes they wore weren’t normal clothes but can be used as armours... they bought dark colored silk and cotton fabrics for YanZhi and light colored for Xiao Ling and bought some cotton and silk shoes. When they were done shopping they decided to take a stroll in the county for the rest of the day, they only left when the sky started to get dark and headed to the mountain..... Xiao Ling and YanZhi changed back into the clothes they left home with carrying empty baskets before heading down the mountain
" Xiang Gong.... i don’t know how to make clothes so we have to find someone to make them for us since we can’t have Yue make them to avoid suspicion " Xiao Ling embarrassedly stated
" that’s a small problem, I already have someone in mind. Let’s have grandma Shen who stays at the west side of the village with her ger grandson make them, she’s good at needle work and she’s honest too not like the other villagers " YanZhi suggested
" okay, listen to you " they walked to grandma Shen’s house and knocked on the door... a little ger at the age of five to six answered the door and walked out. Xiao Ling felt pity for the ger as he looked very skinny and all bones like his skeleton summons, one could see that the boy doesn’t get much to eat making him look smaller than the gers at his age
" Caicai is grandma Shen at home? " YanZhi asked
" who’s at the door? " Grandma Shen shouted from the room as she asked Shen Xiao Cai
" Grandma it’s brother Yan " Shen Xiao Cai replied back and she walked out in a hurry and anxious
" ah Jun family eldest and his wife, do you need something? " she asked feeling more anxious, Both YanZhi and Xiao Ling cupped their hands and greeted her
" grandma its nothing much, we were looking for someone to make clothes for us and we thought of you... that’s what brought us here this night " YanZhi left the talking to Xiao Ling and he said to Grandma Shen politely. She stared skeptically at them not knowing why they’d ask her to make the clothes for them when they have family
" ... can’t you ask your other sister-laws, grandma or mother-in-law to make them for you? " she asked
" grandma Shen I don’t have to inform you of the relationship which my Xiang Gong has With his family, you know that very well since we all live in the same village " answered Xiao Ling " so we needed to find someone else to make them for us and you’re the only one we find suitable, we’ll pay you 30 cents per a set... we’ll pay you 60 cents now as guarantee and pay you the rest when you’re done " Xiao Ling offered.
Grandma was shocked to hear the amount which Xiao Ling was willing to offer her which was more than what is paid for making clothes in every villages around.... those who make clothes in villages are paid fifteen cents at most per set but Xiao Ling was willing to pay her twice the amount with sixty cents as guarantee... " I’ll do it " she quickly agreed before they’ll have a second thought... YanZhi and Xiao Ling gave her the fabrics in the baskets and paid her the sixty cents, she was stunned as she felt the high quality fabrics in her hands but chose not to comment which made Xiao Ling liked her more. Xiao Ling took out two buns from his sleeve which he saved to eat later when he gets hungry since he couldn’t seem to swallow down the food cooked at home and gave them to Shen Xiao Cai, he turned to his grandmother asking for permission and she nodded before he accepted the buns and thanked Xiao Ling which made him happy
" grandma Shen, we’ll be going back now " they walked out and and head on their way to the Jun family house.
" you seem to like kids? " YanZhi asked as he noticed the way Xiao Ling kept looking at Shen Xiao Cai the whole time he was talking to grandma Shen
" yes... I do like kids " Xiao Ling smiled and replied
" then we can have ours when you lay eggs for me " YanZhi teased making Xiao Ling turned bright red... ’ eggs? come to think of it he’s a snake so I’ll have to lay his eggs rather ’ Xiao Ling felt embarrassed after thinking about such thing, YanZhi pushed the gate opened when they got home and walked into the house.
