The man in brocade clothes glanced at the silkworms in the eye box, his eyes lingered on the snow-white silkworms for a while, then he looked at Lu Li and smiled attentively: "The guest is really discerning, these Yunjin silkworms, but I brought them back from Yunjin Mansion in Jeju in the south. The world-famous silkworm species, the silk they spin out is as white as clouds, soft and natural, it is the top grade among brocades."
The boss was gushing endlessly, as if he was praising these Yunjin silkworms to the heavens.
But what he said is indeed true.
The Yunjin silkworm is the most famous silkworm species in the Xia Kingdom. It is produced in the Yunjin Mansion, and the silk and satin woven by the Yunjin Mansion are in hot demand all over the world.
Unfortunately.
It seems that these silkworms also have symptoms of acclimatization. The Yunjin silkworms that leave Yunjin Mansion will either degenerate in the second generation or die of illness in other places. They are unable to produce Yunjin on a large scale, making those who steal silkworm seeds completely extinct. gained hope.
So in other places.
Although there are some Yunjin Celestial Silkworms, they are relatively rare. They were obtained for curiosity and appreciation rather than for reproduction and production, so their value is limited.
In the eyes of the owner of Jinyi, the most beautiful white silkworm, the Yunjin silkworm, which he had high hopes for after buying the Yunjin Mansion, began to lie motionless and sickly.
It neither eats silkworm leaves nor interacts with other silkworms, and other silkworms also avoid this snow-white silkworm, just like people avoid patients.
In order to buy back this box of silkworms that day, especially because the silkworms looked so beautiful in the snowy day, he spent a high price of ten taels of silver to buy it back.
If the silkworm dies of illness in the snow, then he will lose all his money.
Seeing that Lu Li seemed to be very interested in these silkworms, he finally saw the hope of getting his money back, so he introduced them in great detail and tried every means to praise the silkworms in the box.
Therefore, the boss learned from the treasures and characteristics of Yunjin silkworms, and talked about the difficulty of purchasing these silkworms in the first place: "I spent a lot of effort to buy these silkworms from Yunjin Mansion. Those silkworm farmers refused to sell them at all. , and finally"
"alright."
Lu Li raised his hand to stop the boss of Jinyi and said, "Let's get straight to the point, how much do you sell this box of Yunjin silkworms for?"
The main reason why he listened to the boss say so much was to find out the origin of this silkworm demon. Now that he understood almost everything, he went straight to the point.
"Well, maybe after hearing what I said so much, you should also know that these Yunjin silkworms are very precious"
The boss smiled flatteringly, rubbed his hands, and instinctively wanted to say the original price was ten taels, but after thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth: "In fact, after these silkworms leave Yunjin Mansion, they will have some acclimatization just like people." If you don't accept it, if you don't take good care of it, you will die of illness.
I originally bought them for ten taels of silver, but a few of them have already died of illness. If the customer really wants it, he can take these silkworms away with me for seven taels of silver. "
After saying this, the boss was ready for Lu Li to turn around and leave.
ItĄŻs not that he doesnĄŻt want to make more money, the main reason is that among these silkworms, the most valuable one, the Snow White Silkworm, seems to be about to die of illness.
Ą°If it is really sold at such a high price, and I live in the same alley as the person in front of me, there is no way that the other person will come to find an explanation afterwards.
A businessman should pay attention to being kind.
??????????????????????????????????????????
"The boss is a real person."
Lu Li glanced at his boss in surprise. He didn't expect the boss to be so honest and even tell such secret things as silkworms being sick.
Since the other party is so real, he doesnĄŻt want to take advantage.
Lu Li took out ten taels of silver from his sleeve, handed it to the boss, and said with a smile: "The boss can tell me such a secret, and he is also an honest person. Lu doesn't want the boss to suffer a loss. I bought it at the original price of ten taels, and I am very happy." If you buy it for two, you won't make any money, but you will avoid losing money."
"It's really not a loss to buy a monster for ten taels of silver, even if it is doubled ten times.
Seeing the money handed over by Lu Li, the boss hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took it without saying anything to refuse.
After all, he doesnĄŻt want to lose money.
Now that he has made his words, Lu Li still insists on buying it at the original price, so no matter what happens in the future, he has done his duty and it has nothing to do with him.
"The guest is really generous, but the villain is so disrespectful."
After receiving the money, there was no need to lose money, and the smile on the bossĄŻs face became more sincere.
Then he took matters into his own hands and buttoned up the box containing the brocade.??, it was wrapped in cotton and delivered to Lu Li.
Finally, he came with a large package of mulberry leaves, all of which were originally intended to be used to feed the celestial silkworms. Now that the celestial silkworms have been sold, it is useless for him to keep them, so why not give them all to this generous guest.
After putting away the mulberry leaves and silkworms, Lu Li said goodbye to his attentive boss with a smile, then got up and returned to the other courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, closing the door, Lu Li placed the wooden box and mulberry leaves on the stone table.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out out out off out out of? out out of?the boxes?? and looking at?the remaining celestial silkworms in the box????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????ĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻĄŻ'sĄŻ'''''''' over''''''''''''s''' between between between between- between- between- across c still full of oblivious to, squirrels away at, squirming over, squirming over.
ItĄŻs no wonder that some people buy Celestial Silkworms specifically as ornamental objects.
After watching the silkworm eating mulberry leaves for a while, Lu Li slowly turned his attention to the snow-white silkworm lying dead in the box.
"Don't pretend to be dead. I've already discovered that you're a demon. There's no point in pretending to be dead. Can you still speak? If so, just give me a squeak."
Lu Li picked up a mulberry leaf, pushed the snow-white insect with the leaf, and said with a smile: "Now that I have bought you back, you are mine. Why don't you meet your master quickly?"
This silkworm demon had all its demonic energy dissipated and was almost disabled. It posed no threat at all. In addition, it was indeed quite beautiful, which made him want to play with it.
The snow-white silkworm remained motionless.
No matter how much the mulberry leaves teased its body, it still didn't move, being tossed around like a dead insect.
It was now noon, and the waiter from Li's Restaurant outside the door happened to bring another meal. Lu Li asked him to put it on the stone table, then took away the morning food box and closed the door.
Back at the table, Lu Li took a sip of the soup, then picked up a long and slender strip of meat with his chopsticks, put it in front of his nose and smelled it. The aroma was extremely tempting.
He glanced at the snow-white silkworms that had been quietly watching here, and said pointedly: "I heard that the silkworms were dipped in flour and fried in a pan. They are crispy and delicious. They are an extremely delicious food." of gourmet food.
Lu has heard about it before but has never tried it.
Now is a good time, so I bought a box of silkworms, so I can try the taste and quench my gluttony. "
Stiff.
The snow-white silkworm's body was stiff, not as stiff as he had been pretending to be dead before, but as stiff as his whole body was stretched straight.
eat?
Born as a monster, Snow White Silkworms have indeed heard that humans like to eat bugs, but unfortunately, silkworms are also bugs.
