Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 249: Yuncan
Quiet night.
The table is covered with a layer of white paper, and the paper is covered with blue and white cloth pieces and strips.
Lu Tong stood at the table expressionlessly.
Madam Ninth stood aside and noticed something strange, but did not interrupt.
After a long time.
He asked: "That Mrs. Yuncan knows a lot about clothes?"
"Well, he is a rare expert. There are several shops in the city that specialize in making robes for big families, but none of them can compare to Yuncan."
"How come you haven't heard of it before?"
"Outsiders came here with the new city lord."
Lu Tong picked up a rag.
The fabric is torn and strands of thread are exposed. No need to pull hard, just pull it a little and it will break easily.
"How is the relationship between Yuncan and Mengfu??"
"There should be no friendship."
He thought for a while and said: "There are few people richer than Meng Mansion. Will Yuncan let go of this big business?"
"If you have money, you have money, but you may not be willing to spend it."
Lu Tong turned his head and looked.
Madame Ninth explained: "There is only one madam in the Meng Mansion, and there is no young master or young lady. I heard that Madam Meng accompanied Meng Dahe all the way to make a fortune. She was used to digging around and was not willing to spend money."
He was a little surprised and said: "Meng Dahe has no descendants?"
"Yes. Many people are waiting to watch the show to see who can take over the Dahe Food Company after Meng Dahe's death."
Lu Tong put down the rag in his hand and said, "Can you invite Yun Can over? It's best not to let the people in Meng Mansion know."
"This is easy. Most of the women in the city who have money and are willing to spend it are in Canxiang Tower, and Yun Can often comes here."
He nodded, walked to the side and sat down.
Then Madam Ninth asked: "You came back just to find the owner of this dress?"
"Yes."
Madam Ninth moved a screen to block the table, with a worried look on her face.
"Meng Dahe is not easy to mess with. No one who starts from scratch is kind. And his family's business is too involved."
"I know."
Lu Tong picked up the tea cup, blew out the tea foam at the mouth of the cup, and said: "Don't provoke them, just ask them clearly."
Meng Dahe is a businessman and will not spend money in vain.
I was given clothes this time.
In the future, he will probably come to your door and ask him to help.
This person is not a kind person, and he still has to deal with him. Be careful now to avoid being plotted against him later.
……
Two days later, at dusk.
The Ninth Madam took a middle-aged female nun wearing a high crown and a gown that fell to the ground as they punted close to the center of the lake.
Lu Tong was resting outside the boat and immediately greeted him.
"Mrs. Yuncan?"
Yuncan moved the corners of her mouth, smiled very reservedly, looked up and down a few times, and said: "It's wider."
"What?"
Yuncan took out a jade ruler, brought it close to her side, and tiptoed on her shoulder to measure it.
"The shoulder line is a quarter inch wider, so it needs to be narrowed in a little to make it more appropriate."
He and Mrs. Ninth looked at each other, activated their mana, white clouds flowed on their robes, and the shoulder line slowly retracted.
Yun Can nodded with satisfaction, looked around again, and tapped her waist with a jade ruler.
"Here, put half an inch."
After that, the collar, skirt, hem, Baihua, Qinglong...
After tossing with the incense for nearly a month, I finally stopped.
Lu Tong was already a little impatient.
Mrs. Ninth glanced at Lu Tong and said with a smile: "It's really different! After my sister's guidance, it's like changing clothes."
Yuncan smiled reservedly again.
The ninth lady said: "It seems that I have found the right person. Let's go in and take a look."
He immediately walked to the door, opened it and said: "Please!"
At the table.
Yuncan looked at the piece of cloth on the table with a very serious expression.
Take out a glove as thin as a cicada's wings, put it on, pick up a piece, look at it carefully for a while, then bring it to your nose and smell it a few times.
Finally, he held it in the palm of his hand and used his magic power to make the piece of cloth rise and fall in the palm of his hand.
After a long time.
Yuncan put pieces and strips of cloth together into half pieces of clothing.
Then he took off his gloves and stuffed them into a leather pocket, put them away, clapped his hands twice, walked to the side and sat down.
Lu Tong was a little anxious and asked: "How?"
Yuncan didn't speak, she picked up the teacup slowly and took a sip.
"Looking at the fabric, it should be worn by the mountain people deep in the mountains west of Yijie City in the south."
"Not bad."
"The clothes were torn apart."
His expression changed and he asked: "How can you tell?"
“The ends of the thread coming out of the break are rolled inward. This is tearing **** both sides, and after the thread is broken, it is retracted.”
"It wasn't torn open by a monster?"
"It's also possible. However, there are very few monsters that tear apart from the left and right sides. They usually grab downwards."
Lu Tong walked to the table and looked at the half piece of clothes on the paper.
The clothes are most complete near the shoulders. From the shoulders down, there are more and more missing areas.
"What else?"
Yun Can put down her teacup and walked to the side.
"The blood stains have been soaked through and cannot be washed away, at least for a year or two. Also, these cloths have been exposed to the wind for a long time."
"Wind?"
Yun Can pointed at the strip of cloth and said: "There are small wind blades in the wind. They look like cloth, but in fact they have been cut into powder by the wind blades and will break at the slightest touch."
He thought of evil methods again.
There are all kinds of evil things, including bugs, blood, hearts, trees, bones, fire, water... there must also be wind.
I just don’t know if Meng Dahe is cultivating or refining evil magic weapons.
Lu Tong restrained his thoughts, cupped his hands and said: "Thank you!"
Yuncan nodded her chin slightly and turned around to find Mrs. Ninth.
……
Shangdao.
Three carriages moved forward slowly on the bumpy stone road. ~IndoMTL.com~ Inside a carriage at the front.
Lu Tong leaned against the small glazed window, looked at the scenery outside, and asked, "Are you really here to explore the road?"
The carriage is huge.
At the end is a soft couch. In front is a table, with two rows of wooden chairs backed by carriages on both sides of the table.
Madam Ninth sat at the table, picked up a piece of fruit, and said with a smile: "Of course. With such a big business, how can you rest assured if you don't go there in person?"
"It's all a trade route. We've been walking for hundreds of years, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Hmph, do you think I'm looking for an excuse to go to Dachang City?"
He withdrew his eyes and glanced towards the table, his meaning self-evident.
Madam Ninth threw the fruit directly.
"What do you know? The road is dead, but people are alive. Without walking there myself, how do I know how long each section of the road will take, whether it will make me crazy when walking, and whether the goods will be damaged..."
Luton took the fruit with his tail and stuffed it into his mouth.
Madam Ninth threw out another one and said: "Every one of the people below is smarter than the other, and they are very clear about not knowing what to do. They don't even know that they have been hollowed out!"
He thought about it briefly and felt that it made sense.
Madam Ninth became more and more angry as she spoke, threw out the third piece of fruit with all her strength, and said: "The shopkeeper pretended to be relaxed and relaxed, but in the end he started to doubt me."
Lu Tong immediately showed a smile, sat up, and fed the fruit on his tail to Mrs. Ninth.
"That's not what I meant. I think the road is long and difficult to walk after entering the mountains, and I can't bear to make you suffer."
Madame Ninth rolled her eyes and didn't believe it at all.
However, even if it is a lie, it feels good to listen to it, especially if you don’t usually hear it, the first time you hear it it is sweeter than the fruit.
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Then I'll just stay in Dachang City so that I don't have to suffer again when I go back."
"Ah, this..."
"Humph!"
