"Lord Li is here, and I am sorry for your mistakes."
The old man nodded slightly at Li Jiancheng, not much respect in his tone.
"Old Weng is serious, so I'll take the liberty to bother you. Don't blame me." Li Jiancheng didn't think he was polite to the old man, but instead bowed politely.
"Mr. Li is here this time..." The old man's eyes slowly moved to Lin Dong and others. When he saw Qiao Tianhao shaking his legs casually, he couldn't help but frown.
"This is the shopkeeper Lin of Linji Inn." Li Jiancheng smiled and introduced to Lin Dong: "This is Mr. Weng, the president of Junling College. Mr. Weng is a famous scholar in our Qiufeng City. For decades, no one has been able to surpass him."
"Mr. Li praised it." Old Weng shook his head and looked at Lin Dong: "I have heard of the name of Manager Lin. I don't know why Manager Lin came to Junling Academy this time?"
"Director Weng, can you talk about it?" Lin Dong bowed. He had already had detailed information about Mr. Weng a few days ago.
Mr. Weng's name is Weng Zhenke. He became a famous scholar at the age of 20. He is skilled in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He looks a little like Fu Chunjian. He cannot stand the official atmosphere and turns to the school. He is upright and upright. In addition, he has had a high prestige in Qiufeng City for decades.
Weng Zhenke nodded: "Mr. Li, please come from Manager Lin."
Follow Weng Zhenke into the gate of the courtyard. The yard is not big, with a size of forty or fifty square meters. Apart from a guqin in the middle, there are only a few flower pots with some chrysanthemums planted in the corner of the wall. I glanced over it and it was refreshing and simple.
When I came to the lobby, I was not much different from the yard. It was also refreshing and simple. Apart from the tables and chairs, there were only a few hazy landscape paintings hanging on the walls.
When the servant left tea, Lin Dong bowed and said, "Director Weng, Lin Dong came to disturb him this time because he wanted to ask Dean Weng to agree to place a few vitality tables in the martial arts field."
"Violent Ball Table?" Weng Zhenke said in confusion: "Shopkeeper Lin, what is this violent Ball Table?"
Lin Dong got up, came to the center of the lobby, and took out a vibrant ball table from the mobile counter.
In an instant, the slightly spacious lobby became a little crowded.
"This..." Weng Zhenke stood up in confusion, came to the vitality table and looked at it, and said in confusion: "Shopkeeper Lin, what's the use of this vitality table? Why was it placed in the martial arts venue?"
Lin Dong took out a pair of rackets, put two wooden helmets that blocked the door with wooden sticks and a vitality ball on the table, and nodded to Qiao Tianhao.
"Wang Zheng, Liangshan, you two go and demonstrate." Qiao Tianhao waved his hand to the two beside him and stood up.
The two of them stepped forward, one of them picked up a racket and helmet, Wang stood at the ball table toward the door, and Liangshan walked to the opposite side.
Putting a wooden helmet on his head, Wang Zheng held the racket in one hand and the vitality ball in the other, stood at more than 30 cm in the middle of the table, with a little on his body, and a little on his left palm holding the vitality ball slightly forward.
The vitality ball slowly rose in everyone's sight. Just when Weng Zhenke was a little confused, Wang Zheng suddenly raised his hand and the racket in his hand suddenly hit when the vitality ball was out of his chest.
Bang
With a light sound, the racket was in the middle of the vitality ball. Suddenly, the vitality ball sped towards the opposite side, rushing quickly at a height of slightly higher wire mesh, hitting the table and bounced up quickly.
On the other end, Liangshan was obviously prepared for it. The racket leaned forward slightly, and it slapped towards the middle and upper part of the vitality ball.
With a bang, the vitality ball spiraled over the barbed wire and flew back to the table where Wang Zheng was.
Immediately, Wang Zheng waved his right arm with his backhand, and the vitality ball rushed out without hesitation and shot towards the right corner of the table.
Liangshan quickly stepped back, and on the right side of his body, waved his arm to hit the vitality ball back again.
The two of them were coming and going, sometimes as fast as thunder, sometimes as slow as streams. On the side, Weng Zhenke was focused, his eyes swaying left and right with the milky white vitality ball. When they were rapid, they couldn't help but exclaim.
Looking at Weng Zhenke's expression, Lin Dong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This vitality ball is quite attractive in this world where there is no sports activity. Otherwise, with Weng Zhenke's dignified scholar and the determination developed by the dean of the college for decades, he would definitely not be so disobedient.
Just as you were heading back and forth, Liangshan racquetted out, and Wang Zheng took a quick step to the left, but he didn't expect that the vitality ball had crossed the barbed wire and ran towards his right side.
With a bang, Wang Zheng caught him off guard and could only watch the vitality ball fly by and hit the threshold behind him.
"Oh," Weng Zhenke shouted.
"Damn it"
But unexpectedly, Li Jiancheng slapped his thighs and shouted at Wang Zheng: "What useless thing, won't you block your arms from behind the back? Your arms are not that long, quickly throw the wooden sign onto your left hand."
Wang Zhengweinuo dared not answer.
Lin Dong was stunned. He then remembered that although Li Jiancheng knew about the vitality table, he had not had time to see it.
Judging from this situation, it was obviously attracted by the vitality ball, so he subconsciously scolded Wang Zheng.
Even Li Jiancheng could attract the vitality ball. Lin Dong's confidence couldn't help but increase a little more. He immediately took a step forward and looked at Weng Zhenke, who was planning to wait for Wang Zheng and the other two to come again: "Dean Weng, what do you think of this vitality ball?"
"How is it?" Weng Zhenke was stunned, and then said without hesitation: "Okay, I have never seen such an interesting gadget in my life. Manager Lin, how much money do you need for five such tables and wooden signs? If it is not too expensive, I will want it."
Lin Dong was amused and crying. Dean Weng probably regarded himself as a salesperson.
If you really want to bring the Qiufeng Mansion Tongzhi to sell a few tables, you will definitely lose money if you don’t sell them for 18,000 taels of silver.
After thinking about it, Lin Dong said, "Director Weng, this table is called the Vitality Ball Table, and the wooden sign can be called a racket."
"Ball racket?" Weng Zhenke stroked his long beard and praised: "This name is appropriate."
Lin Dong smiled and continued: "If Dean Weng spends money to buy the ball table, helmet and racket, the cost price is about 300 cents."
"Three hundred cents?" Weng Zhenke was a little surprised and brought Li Jiancheng to sell things. The sum of it was only one or two taels of silver. Is it enough for the shredded pork stuffed between Lord Li's teeth at noon? But he didn't expect that Li Jiancheng had no meal at noon and was busy rushing on the road. Not to mention shredded pork, there was no vegetable shavings between his teeth.
Lin Dong nodded and said slowly: "As for the vitality ball, the price is a little more expensive, and the cost is about 200 cents."
Compared to the other few, it is indeed a little more expensive, but in total, five sets are only 2 taels and 5 cents of silver. For Weng Zhenke, it is completely worth it to exchange for students with two taels and 5 cents of silver for more entertainment.
After thinking about it, Weng Zhenke decided to say, "Shopkeeper Lin, can you sell me ten sets? I am willing to give you a double profit, that is, one tael of silver per set."
Lin Dong shook his head and said, "Director Weng, what do you think are the benefits of this vitality ball?"
"Benefits?" Weng Zhenke pondered for a moment, and his heart moved: "Can the students strengthen their physical fitness?"
"Yes" Lin Dong smiled and said, "When you play this vitality ball, your hands and feet can move, and your whole body can move. Moreover, if you want to win the opponent, you will have certain exercises in your reaction ability, eyesight, and judgment."
Weng Zhenke thought about it carefully and seemed to be true.
Looking at Lin Dong with a smile on his face, Weng Zhenke hesitated for a moment and asked, "Shopkeeper Lin, two taels of silver are a set, what do you think?"
Lin Dong shook his head and said slowly: "In addition to strengthening his physique, there is another benefit to the vitality ball."
"Another benefit?" Weng Zhenke couldn't help but look at the vitality ball that had been picked up by Wang Zheng on the table.
Lin Dong nodded and picked up the vitality ball, his nails stabbed into it, and with a little force, a layer of film slowly peeled off.
The vitality ball that turned into a vibrant beef ball was handed to Weng Zhenke, and Lin Dong smiled and said, "Director Weng, try it."
Weng Zhenke hesitated, saw Lin Dong nodding, picked up the lively beef balls in his hand, put them in his mouth, and took a small bite.
"The taste is good," Weng Zhenke praised: "It's not a bad thing that Lin Ji Inn's cooking skills."
"Thank you, Dean Weng, for your appreciation." Lin Dong's eyes were still staring at the lively beef balls in Weng Zhenke's hand.
Weng Zhenke had no choice but to stuff the entire vitality beef ball into his mouth, chewed it carefully for a while, and swallowed it into his stomach with unsatisfactory intentions.
"Not bad, it's really good. The mouth smells good, and it tastes... not right." Weng Zhenke suddenly said: "Shopkeeper Lin, is there spiritual materials mixed in this vitality ball?"
Lin Dong nodded: "Otherwise, it wouldn't be so expensive. There are indeed a lot of spiritual materials in it. Eating one will make you energetic for an hour. It is suitable for all ages. Not only will you take more of it, it will have the same effect, and it will not be deficient and will not be supplemented."
"How is this possible?" Weng Zhenke said in surprise: "The more spiritual materials you take, the less effective the medicine is, and not everyone can eat it."
"It is indeed possible. As for why, Shu Lindong cannot explain it. It is related to the inn's business. But..." Lin Dong smiled and said: "With Lord Li as a guarantee for me, the stewed turtle from Linji Inn is also a big proof. Moreover, Dean Weng can also let people not eat it randomly, and wait until the streets of Vitality Ball will be heard before deciding. Time can prove everything."
"Old Weng" Li Jiancheng came out at the right time. Although he didn't know whether the vitality ball was as magical as Lin Dong said, he would not hesitate just for Lin Dong's blacksmith, let alone as a guarantee, and he drew his sword and cut Weng Zhenke. He immediately said loudly: "Li can protect Manager Lin. Just as Manager Lin said, Mr. Weng can wait until the matter is clear before making a decision. Is it a restriction for students to eat this vitality ball?"
"Since Lord Li is protecting it, it is naturally true."
Weng Zhenke didn't believe much about Li Jiancheng, but when Lin Dong mentioned the stewed turtle from Linji Inn, he already believed it.
It's fun, it can exercise your body and brain, and it can make people energetic. Weng Zhenke was a little hesitant. He didn't know what price to offer. If it was too high, the academy might as well imitate it by himself. It was too low. I guess this shopkeeper Lin would not agree.
