Chapter 7 Fireworks in the World
Jiu Wentian may be happy with a bad breath, but he will never know that Manager Cao has no intention of targeting him. In Mr. Cao's cognition, your position determines your ability, and because your ability is not good, you should not get good things.
The social law of the jungle has always existed and continued, no one will pay for your incompetence, you can only rely on yourself. But if your ability is very strong, then you will also have a bright future in this society, and you should not have any complaints.
If Wen Dou loses this time, it can only mean that he is really not suitable to do those big things, and he can only spend his life guarding the study here. Maybe Jiu Wentian should be like this, but Jiu Wentian in this life has his own golden finger, and he has knowledge and ability that others don't have, so Mr. Cao has to obey him.
Halfway through the way, she was separated from Jiang Qiufang, Jiang Qiufang wanted to go back to her own room to take a lunch break, and Jiu Wentian wanted to continue to take care of the study. Now that the snow has stopped, and the sun is hanging in the middle of the sky, Jiu Wentian in the previous life was a liberal arts student, and he was quite interested in the geographical phenomena here.
But he can't use that knowledge to understand this place well, he can only know a little bit about it, for example, the spring, summer, autumn and winter here are still obvious, after Shenzhou sank, the east of the old city has always been an endless sea, so at this time this place should be a temperate monsoon climate, maybe it will be a bit temperate oceanic climate.
These things are just idle talk when Jiu Wentian is bored, Jiu Wentian came to his study while walking, but there was a man waiting under the eaves of the study. Although this man's outfit is similar to Jiu Wentian's, it still looks much more gorgeous than Jiu Wentian's clothes at a glance, and Jiu Wentian also knows that this is a relatively cheap thing.
The man still had a little stubble on his face, and he looked very haggard, holding two books in his arms, as if waiting for the master of this study to take a look. Jiu Wentian recognized this person at a glance, so he hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "Brother Cao, you are here, this door is not locked, why don't you go in and sit down?"
"If I go in," Cao Tianyun said expressionlessly, "Then you won't be caught as a thief?"
Jiu Wentian pushed open the door and said with a smile: "How can it be, Brother Cao, come in." ”
Cao Tianyun stepped in and said with some surprise: "I haven't been here for a few days, and it's changed a lot, and it's pretty good." ”
"It's just a different mood," Jiu Wentian smiled, then sat on his chair and picked up the notebook and brush and said, "Brother Cao, what book are you going to read this time?"
Cao Tianyun put the two books in his hand in front of Jiu Wentian, then looked at him and recorded, and said: "I have been in this for ten years, and now I am about to break through the triple layer, when the time comes, I will take you to the Hundred Beast Forest to see what the spirit pool is." ”
"Triple so fast?" Jiu Wentian asked with some surprise: "Brother Cao, it's really not easy to go from double to triple in ten years, if you continue like this, you will be able to go to the seventh level sooner or later." ”
Cao Tianyun still said with an unchanged face: "Forget it, I don't think force is useful, it's not as comfortable as knowledge." When I get to the triple level, I will be able to enter the Hundred Beast Forest, and the spirit pool Lu Lao said that it was left by their believers, and I must go and see what is going on. ”
"Okay, thank you Brother Cao. After Jiu Wentian finished recording, he put away the pen again, got up and took the two books and prepared to put them back on the shelf, and asked again: "By the way, Brother Cao, do you want me to help?"
Cao Tianyun finally smiled this time, and said with a hint of request: "If you want to break this triple, you have to need some auxiliary things to break through in a short time, and after I flipped through the book a few times, I found that the worst is the Refining God Pill." But now the alchemy pill on the market, one will cost 10,000 spirit coins, and even if I buy it, I can't buy three. ”
Speaking of this, Cao Tianyun revealed a helpless expression, and Jiu Wentian also heard the meaning of this, so he asked: "I have money here, I can help Brother Cao buy a few." ”
Cao Tianyun shook his head, and then said: "Aren't you good at alchemy? I can pay for the materials, and then you can help me refine them, it's too expensive to buy ready-made ones." ”
"That's right," Jiu Wentian suddenly thought of something, and continued to ask, "Isn't there such an advanced elixir from the city lord? You can go and ask the city lord how many pills there are, he shouldn't be stingy with this kind of thing." ”
Cao Tianyun took a long breath and said helplessly: "Forget it, now he is very sensitive to these pills, and Coach Ye never saw him take out a pill when he broke the fifth level, let alone me." But I didn't think about begging him in the first place, he was far from the Jiang City Lord. ”
After hearing this, Jiu Wentian was speechless, and said in his heart What does this old guy want so many pills for, could it be that he is also going to advance? Jiang City Lord is currently at least six-fold, but it is difficult to enter this seven-fold as if he is ascending to the sky, and he has not seen him retreat and cultivate all these years, so if he is ready to break this sevenfold at this time, he will be lying. After weighing it for a while, Jiu Wentian said:
"That's it, Brother Cao, it takes a long time to buy materials and refine them, not to mention that I don't know if I can refine them well. Let's go and buy it directly, Brother Cao, don't worry, this money is naturally mine, and it will be regarded as a ticket for me to follow you into the Hundred Beast Forest. ”
After saying that, Jiu Wentian was about to take Cao Tianyun to buy pills, and after walking out of the study, a maid happened to come over, and Jiu Wentian said: "I'm about to go to you, by the way, I'm going out to buy something, you can help me take care of this study first, I'll be back later." ”
The maid looked at Cao Tianyun, Cao Tianyun didn't say anything, and the maid said with a smile: "Yes, does Jiu Shuguan have any other instructions?"
"Well...... Jiu Wentian thought for a while and said, "If the eldest lady comes to me, you can just tell her that I went out to buy something." ”
"Yes. The maid nodded and entered the study.
Jiu Wentian is also a sensible person, he can't say that he fully understands this kind of worldly things, but he also knows a rough idea. For example, if he didn't follow Cao Tianyun today, then he wouldn't have any money for the day. Because Cao Tianyun is the son of Chief Manager Cao, regardless of his official position, just such an identity is here, this maid does not dare to say that he will detain Yulu.
If Manager Cao asked his son to ask Jiu Wentian to do something, then if this maid wants to report to Manager Cao, then she will not be qualified as a maid.
Therefore, the more people who live at the bottom, the more they understand these worldliness and know how to live.
After leaving the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Jiu Wentian felt liberated, and hurriedly breathed in the fresh air. To be honest, he has come out quite a few times, because it is inevitable that there will be some things he wants to buy, and he will inevitably be pestered by Jiang Qiufang to go shopping on the street.
Sometimes Jiu Wentian feels that walking on the street has the feeling of watching a TV series, but the protagonist in the picture has become himself. Many people have also asked Jiu Wentian in the previous life, "As a liberal arts student, do you particularly want to go back to ancient times to experience that simple life?"
At that time, Jiu Wentian had a lofty ambition, saying that you are worthy of being my good brother, imagine, your brother and I were walking on the street of blue bricks and ancient tiles, and suddenly a horse came running, and there was a bully of the street sitting on it, I rescued a frightened woman from under the horse's hooves, and recited a poem to her, and then we lived happily together.
Although this is the fairy tale world in Jiuwentian's previous life, but now Jiuwentian also understands that fairy tales are always fairy tales, even if you are placed in the world that can produce fairy tales, what you see is still the world of adults.
So after a long time, Wentian also gave up, he was at ease in this kind of adult world, he began to stick to this kind of society, and he also understood the sophistication of the people here and the officialdom struggle. This is also why he agreed to Longcheng's marriage, why he would bend his knees to Jiang Fuqing, he could have taken the Holy Demon Sword to point to the country and hid in the mountains and rivers when the catastrophe came.
But he also knows that in life, it's better not to stand at the top. Although Jiu Wentian is sometimes wronged, he is also very happy many times, he doesn't want to taste the ups and downs of the previous life again, but he doesn't want to miss the firewood, rice, oil and salt in this life.
Sometimes, being alive is the best affirmation of life.
"Brother Cao, what are you looking at?" Jiu Wentian was stunned, and then saw that Cao Tianyun was not moving, he stood there and tilted his head to look at a small stall next to him. Jiu Wentian walked to Cao Tianyun's side curiously, and then followed his gaze, which was really a bit attractive.
Cao Tianyun said: "This is a game I have been playing since I was a child, I always lost at that time, and I don't know if I can win now." ”
This is also a game that Jiu Wentian used to play when he was a child, but he never won, and it is roughly a wooden shelf here, on which is a sandbox similar to a maze, and then there is a ball and a trap in the lower right corner. As soon as you pull the trap and let go, it will pop the ball out, and then the ball will fall into the wooden groove below after some levels.
Prizes are written in the wooden trough, and whichever one falls is the prize.
However, this kind of charlatan deception has long been known to everyone, but Jiu Wentian still doesn't know if the people here understand it, in the last life, he had the Internet, and the network has long revealed the mechanism deception of this game, so that you can only fall into the wooden trough of "thank you for your patronage" every time.
However, there were also many people around here, and Jiu Wentian was sure that they didn't know at all, but Jiu Wentian was not ready to show his skills here, because what really attracted him was the person who set up the stall.
