A young scholar who was so handsome and wanted to stay in Lanruo Temple. He was a perfect match for Ning Caichen.
If this was really Ning Caichen, then he was definitely a love rival! The level of danger was no less than grandma!
Liu Mang suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around to catch up with the little scholar, blocking his path.
The little scholar was shocked. He sized up Liu Mang and whispered,""Big brother, why are you blocking my way?”
"I think you look familiar. You seem to be an old friend of mine. May I ask if your name is Ning Caichen?”Liu Mang probed.
"Yes, I am Ning Caichen, but I really can't remember where I've seen you before.”Ning Caichen looked confused.
It really was Ning Caichen!
If this guy went to Lanruo Temple, it would be troublesome if something happened. It would be best if he didn't go to Lanruo Temple to avoid future troubles.
Liu Mang had a sudden idea, he smiled and put his arm around Ning Caichen's shoulder,""That was many years ago. It's normal that you can't remember. At that time, you were still young and ran around in open-crotch pants all day. You liked to stick to me for candy and cry if I didn't give you candy.”
"I've done such a thing before?" Ning Caichen widened his eyes.
"You did a lot of stupid things when you were young. You tore off the roof tiles, went into the river to fish, and were mischievous all day long.”
"It was so many years ago. It's been so long. I look so different from when I was young. How did you recognize me?”
"This…don't mind those details!”
Liu Mang's rambling had confused Ning Caichen. He had called out Ning Caichen's name earlier, so he had gained a lot of trust.
After getting close, Liu Mang changed the topic and asked Ning Caichen why he was here. He even said that he wanted to help.
Ning Caichen gave a bitter smile and told him about himself. He was a shop assistant of the Treasure Collection House. The inn on the street had bought a batch of goods from the Treasure Collection House last year, but they had not paid up and owed him a total of thirty taels of silver. He had been ordered by the shopkeeper to come and collect the debt. If he could get back the thirty taels of silver, he would be rewarded with five taels of silver. He had traveled a long way to the Golden Flower Mansion, hoping to get the money. He did not expect the heavy rain to wet the account book on his body. The delinquent bullied him for not having an account book and refused to give him a single cent. He even chased him out.
This was what had happened in the past.
"Isn't it just not paying back the money you owe? It's a small matter. Leave it to me. I'll settle it for you. I guarantee that you'll get the money and even make a small profit. You wait here, I'll be back soon.”Liu Mang patted Ning Caichen's shoulder and left quickly.
Ning Caichen stayed in the rain alone, looking at Liu Mang's back, somewhat confused.
Liu Mang held an umbrella and turned into an empty alley. He took out a table, paper, and pen and quickly drew a golden talisman. This kind of talisman had the miraculous effect of turning stone into gold. It could turn a stone into gold for an entire day. After a day, the gold would turn back into stone.
This kind of turning stone into gold was a smokescreen. Liu Mang did not intend to rely on this kind of smokescreen to cheat money, but this time was an exception.
He could use the Midas Touch to teach those villains who owed money a lesson.
Liu Mang picked up the golden talisman that he had just drawn and picked up a brick around him. He stuck the golden talisman on it. The brick flashed with golden light and turned into golden light.
"Hehe." Liu Mang looked at the gold brick in his hand and laughed evilly.
He took the gold brick and went straight to the inn that had not paid off its debts. It was raining heavily today, and there were many people staying in the inn. Business was booming. He walked to the counter and slammed the palm-sized gold brick on the table without saying anything.
The innkeeper of this inn was a middle-aged man with a dog-skin plaster on his forehead. He was shocked silly by the gold bricks that were suddenly placed in front of him. What was going on?
"Shopkeeper, help me see what this is.”Liu Mang pushed the gold brick forward.
The shopkeeper was greedy and smiled apologetically."Master Dao, you really know how to joke. This is obviously a gold brick!”
"Take a good look. Is this real gold or fake gold?”
The shopkeeper picked up the gold brick and examined it carefully. He nodded and said,"Pure gold."
"I saw that you have an immortal encounter, so I specially came to enlighten you today. I'll use this piece of gold to exchange for your fifty taels of silver.”
"Dao grandpa is joking again. This piece of gold of yours is almost two catties heavy, worth at least two hundred silver taels.”
"I already said that you have an immortal encounter. I came here today to form an affinity with you. If you didn't have an immortal encounter, I naturally wouldn't let you take advantage of me.”
Using such a large gold brick to exchange for dozens of taels of silver was a good thing that fell from the sky.
The shopkeeper was indeed a businessman. He was not blinded by the benefits in front of him. On one hand, he tested Liu Mang, on the other hand, he checked the authenticity of the gold brick, and even cut off a corner of the gold brick.
True gold was not afraid of fire. No matter how he checked, the gold bricks were flawless.
Only then did the shopkeeper agree to this transaction. He took out fifty taels of silver from the counter and respectfully placed them on the table. He smiled and said,"Please kindly accept this. Fifty taels of silver is not a penny less. If I give you the silver, the gold brick will be mine. Everyone present can testify to this.”
