The water surface was as calm as a mirror, and the white float was motionless, like a spot on the mirror. The young man in the reflection had no expression on his face, staring at the float tightly, and his hand holding the fishing rod revealed blue veins.

"The fat old man often says that fishing is not fishing, but fishing is the heart. Although he doesn't understand, how could he save him and lose to him?" The young man secretly approached his heart.

"Your young master! If there is no bait on your hook, how could there be a fish hook?" A young man of eighteen or nineteen years old stood upright, hanging his long sword on his waist.

"What do you know? Don't you know that Jiang Taigong fishes like this?" The boy replied angrily, waving the fishing rod in anger.

The fishing line flew towards a cluster of low bushes on the shore, and the young man pulled his feet desperately and couldn't pull them.

"Eleventh! Go and take a look.";

The young man walked over quickly and digged the branches and leaves, as if he was startled. But he quickly squatted down and fiddled with something.

"Just Nine Young Master, the fish hook caught a young man falling into the water, and he still had a breath."

"Hehe! Young Master Ben Jiu is so powerful, he can catch people even with empty bait. Wake him up, the things I caught belong to me." The young man waved his hand casually, as if he had done something insignificant.

After dinner, it was still very bright. The boy walked out of the tent and waved to the young man guarding the side: "Go and go and have a look."

Lu Lelai has never seen such a beautiful boy. If he gets older and changes into women's clothing, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is charming. It is just that his expression is arrogant and it is difficult to please people at first sight.

The boy looked at the road for a while, as if he was scrutinizing the goods, and said proudly: "I saved your life."

Lu LeLe got up from the floor and bowed deeply: "Thank you brother for saving your life!"

The boy smiled coldly: "Thank you? How much money is worth."

I am stunned by the road and do not expect to repay kindness. Isn’t this what people should do? What kind of strange boy said such words?

He looked at Lu Li's ragged clothes in disgust. The boy didn't look back and asked casually: "Eleventh, how much can you buy such a mountain young master?"

"Young Master Nine, at most two taels." Eleven behind the boy answered tightly.

Lu Le is angry, he is really angry. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. He is a scholar who is denominated for money and is not worth two taels?

With a tidy shirt, he said proudly, "I am a tribute student, not a mountain boy. Isn't it rude to live like this?"

"Gongsheng? It's almost the same to coax the country people. The juren in Chang'an City walks all over the ground, and officials touch them everywhere. What's the little tribute student?" The boy pursed his lips and hit the road without mercy.

"Is Chang'an City amazing? I grew up in Chang'an since I was a child and I am also a Chang'an person." Lu Leye was a little dissatisfied.

"Oh! I can't tell you are a Chang'an person. But can you believe this look? I wonder if this young man is in trouble, who is from Chang'an family?" The young master teased and made way for him.

"Doctor Lu, the Imperial Hospital, is the master of the family." Lu LeLe answered proudly.

The boy tilted his head and thought for a while, shook his head: "Doctor Lu? I haven't heard of it. Eleven, how much money will an unknown imperial physician pay?"

"Three hundred taels are tight, five hundred taels are broken." The young man was still very simple.

"Haha! Even if what the wild boy said is true, it is worth four hundred taels at most." The young man nodded in understanding.

The young man was dressed in luxurious clothes and was imposing. He also had elite guards around him. He knew that he was from an extraordinary place at first. At the beginning of his journey, he lost thousands of miles away, but at this time he was inspired to reveal the boy's original nature.

"Are you amazing? How much money can you be worth?";

"Hahahahaha! Eleventh, he actually asked me how much money I am worth. Not to mention how much money I am worth, just this trip, the money I earned will scare you to death." The young man laughed, as if Lu Leye was talking about something incredible.

"Eleven, tell him."

"Excluding expenses, the profit is more than 6,000 taels.";

"Brave!" Six thousand taels, this is a number that Lu Leye dared not even think about.

"You can't imagine that it's because you're poor and you're incompetent." The boy looked at the road, as if he was looking down at an ant.

"Are you very capable?" How could you bear it when you were bullied by a boy who looked one or two years younger?

"Purchase 100 trucks of old grains for clearance at the Chengdu Prefecture's official warehouse for 500 taels. Transport it to Yunnan Prefecture and exchange it for more than ten trucks of jade from the mountain people. When returning to Chang'an, the price increased by more than ten times. This is my ability." The boy's proud fingers looked at the road sarcastically.

"You! What are your abilities?";

"I was a tribute student at the age of thirteen and was proficient in both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

"What are you going to brag about when you are a scholar? But the thirteen-year-old tribute student is still a must. I'd better add you 300 taels. What else do you have?"

After being added three hundred taels at once, Lu Lele actually breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little proud of being recognized.

"I know herbs, which can detoxify and cure diseases."

The young master looked very reluctant, as if he had given Lu Lili's great favor: "It's quite useful, I'll add you three hundred taels. What else?"

Among the young men, they always don’t want to be looked down upon by the other party. They forget the abominable way of living people based on money. They always want to be more valuable, even if they are a little higher.

"I don't know if I can count it when cooking or washing clothes." Lu Leye felt a little embarrassed, and his voice suddenly became inaudible. However, for reasons that people do not misunderstand, he never said that he would poison himself.

"You two taels." The young master was very generous, but he didn't care whether scholars were doing these things. Is it a bit low-key?

"Including your family background, there are 1,002 taels in total. You are worth so much, right?" The boy opened his beautiful eyes and looked at the road.

Although it was very uncomfortable to be valued like this, I finally felt a little better when I remembered that I was just two taels at the beginning, and I had a little more than one thousand taels. Lu Lele nodded reluctantly.

"Okay, I saved your life. Your life is worth 1,02 taels. With the ginseng soup made from ginseng that saved your life, you owe me a total of 1,502 taels. Are you paying it now or writing an IOU?" The young man looked at the road seriously.

Lu was shocked and never expected that saving a life would be calculated like this. His life was indeed saved by the other party, and he drank the three soup by himself. The year of ginseng is not wrong. Ginseng for two hundred years is indeed worth 500 taels. But his own life was added by himself for one thousand taels.

This young man is not a human, but a demon. Compared with this young man, Gege Fang almost becomes a Bodhisattva!

If you are not responsible for your debts, you can’t do it. If you run away, you can’t escape. Not only will your body be weak, the young man’s sword doesn’t seem to be a vegetarian.

He honestly took out the fifty taels of silver from Fang Gege and handed it over. He wrote an IOU like a marionette under the guidance of a boy, and his whole mind was empty.

He didn't even look at the small bag he handed over and threw it to the young man behind him.

The young man's face turned pale and a flattering smile appeared on his face: "Young Master Jiu is really amazing. He caught a big fish. Wang Shiyi has seen it."

"Depending on your appearance, you have no money. If you follow my convoy back to Chang'an, the cost is almost 100 taels. If you don't want to, you can leave now. There is your handprint on the IOU, and I will go back to Chang'an to find your grandfather who is an imperial physician to collect money." The boy seemed to be fine and was about to leave.

Lu Lele dared not ask about the high-priced travel expenses of 100 taels. He was afraid that he would wait for him when he encountered a trap he could never imagine. But he felt so frustrated that he couldn't help but say to the boy;

"Brother, don't you think it's too much?";

"I am a merchant, but I can't afford to be a scholar, you. I don't want to repay kindness. That's what you scholars value. Our businessmen will only have value and interests." The young man looked calm.

"How dare you bully scholars like this? Are you not afraid that I will go to the government to report you?" Lu Lele was furious.

"From beginning to end, did I bully you at all? Your life was not saved by me? Your value was not added by myself? Is it not what you valued at 500 taels of ginseng?

Besides, are scholars very noble? Don’t eat or wear clothes? There are so many scholars who want to make a living in my house. It is not uncommon for scholars to be a Jinshi. What are you a small tribute student?”

The boy waved his sleeves, too lazy to look at the road again, and walked out calmly.
