Chapter Forty-Three: The Iron Bucket of Gold

As soon as Chen entered the house, Qiao Ya had already made tea and waited. Chen came in to greet him, and was invited to a seat by Qiao Ya, and the two began to talk.

Jingxu came out with a snack, stopped while Qiao Ya and Chen's words were there, and interjected at the right time: "Boss, about the location selection, the chief of Poyang Dao came to ask, saying that there is a suitable place on the mountainside and the top of the mountain, please find a time to decide." ”

Chen asked curiously: "What is the location, is this Nie Yunguan too small, and the real person still has to choose another place to build a Taoist temple?" ”

Qiao Ya pursed her lips and smiled, and said calmly: "Nie Yunguan is big enough, but now I want to open a mountain and establish a sect and build another stream, and this group of apprentices is also cultivating with me." A few days ago, a good person said that he would sponsor me to build another monastery, so I have already started to see the place. ”

Chen was a little depressed when he heard this: "If the real person wants to build another school, why don't you tell me?" Although our Bai family is a scholarly family, it is still possible to donate some silver to help real people. Is the real person looking down on the Bai family? ”

Qiao Ya hurriedly said: "It's not true, it's just that people are kind, and they happen to hear the conversation between me and Poyang, so they are willing to help." ”

Chen was a little distraught for a while, and he didn't sit for long before going back. As soon as he went back, he said to his master: "The Chu family and the Qin family don't know which one it is, but they actually funded the Qingchu Zhenren to open a mountain and establish a faction." We got the news late, and we gave people a head start, how is this good? ”

Bai Xiannian frowned when he heard this: "Which one is it, this kind of thing should have been done by the three of us, but they actually took the lead?" ”

Chen was very depressed, and pouted and said: "Where did I inquire about this, Qingchu Zhenren will never tell us about the investor, and I can only come back and discuss it with the master." Look, sir, are we going to give some money, at least we can't let the family monopolize this good thing, right? ”

Bai Xiannian thought about it for a while, and immediately nodded: "That's right, since you want to open a mountain and establish a faction, you naturally have to support it." Qingchu Zhenren's ability is not small, let's not get estranged from her. You go to the treasury and get two thousand taels for someone to send, but I don't know if the two thousand silver is too much or too little. ”

Chen twisted his fingers and calculated: "If you want to establish a faction, naturally it will not be enough for Nie Yunguan to have such a small courtyard, I heard that the address is on the mountainside or on the top of the mountain, so the labor is even more expensive." If you want me to say, it must be the Chu family's money. Although the Qin family is powerful, it is not so rich, Chu Yicheng has been the general of Jinxi Road for so many years, and he must have made a lot of oil and water, and his family will have to produce four or five thousand. ”

Bai Xiannian immediately changed his words: "Then we will also send four thousand, you personally send it to the real person, and let people find some craftsmen with good craftsmanship." ”

The Chen family was sending money and looking for craftsmen, which soon alarmed the Chu and Qin families, and the two families inquired and gasped at the same time.

Qingchu Zhenren wants to set up another school, and the Bai family will fund and help? Our family can't let his family take the limelight for nothing!

So the two families contributed their own money and efforts, and soon Qiaoya's sect plan started.

Qiao Ya stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the place Poyang had found, very satisfied. The scenery here is the best, and the mountain road is steep, and most people can't find the road even if they want to. Qiao Ya wanted such a place where she could cultivate quietly without being disturbed.

"Uncle Shi, the craftsmen have all been delivered, and they have brought the drawings here, can you go and have a look?" Jingxu rushed up from the bottom of the mountain, intending to Joya's musings.

Qiao Ya turned around and walked down the mountain, and the chief of Poyang Dao hurriedly grabbed Jingxu and asked: "Why is the teacher so blatantly looking for craftsmen, didn't we say that we made it ourselves?" ”

Jingxu covered his mouth and smiled: "If you make it yourself, you will also show your stuffing, so Uncle Shi deliberately said in front of Mrs. Chen of the Bai family that someone funded the construction of the house." Mrs. Chen didn't want to ask who it was, and she was afraid that others would be in the limelight, so she hurriedly went home and wrapped up the silver and sent it over. The other two families heard that the Bai family had invested, and they were also busy contributing to help. Now our silver has a clear way, and we are no longer afraid of suspicion. ”

Poyang Daoist suddenly realized, and at the same time broke out in a cold sweat: "Our teacher, this is an empty glove white wolf?" ”

Jingxu haha: "No, it's the first time I've found out that it's so simple to coax people to send silver to the door." ”

When Jingxu returned to Ningzhi Academy, Qiao Ya had already finished picking out the drawings. She left only the craftsmen of the Qin family behind, and gave the rest a reward for them to go back, saying that there were enough people.

After the people left, Qiao Ya instructed Jingxu again: "If my sect is built, I still need to hire some people to do chores." But these people can't go down when they come up, so if you go and buy some people, you will have to die. ”

Jingxu asked again: "There are only four craftsmen in that family, including the master and apprentice, why don't the uncles keep a few craftsmen, and the progress is faster." ”

Qiao Ya waved her hand: "No need, just use that one." They also have to sign a death deed and stay in the sect forever, and if other craftsmen refuse to sign it, they don't need it. ”

Jingxu wondered: "Why did even the craftsman sign the death deed?" Craftsmen are few of them, and their status is still higher than that of slaves, even though they are low. ”

Qiao Ya smiled slightly: "If you want to make an iron bucket of golden soup, the terrain of my sect can't be known to anyone who cares." Even the craftsmen don't put down the mountain, and I see how they inquire about my territory. Besides, I have to expand in the future, and the house will be maintained every year, so why bother to find someone else and let them cover it all. ”

Once you start, the rest is pretty fast. The wood bought by Poyang Daoist and Jingxu had already been piled up on the top of the mountain, Jingxu tied the eyes of those people, and used teleportation to take those people to the top of the mountain, and those craftsmen began to build houses and courtyards.

And Qiao Ya is still brushing her prestige every day, not only curing the old lady of the Bai family for many years, but also healing Chu Yicheng's leg injury in the old years.

At this time, Qiao Ya's fame is getting bigger and bigger, and many people from ten miles and eight towns have heard about her skills, and there are even those who have seen Qiao Ya's treatment with their own eyes deliberately add fuel and vinegar to Qiao Ya's skills, and for a while, Jinxi Dao knew that this Qingchu real person.

Just when Qiao Ya's side became famous, a letter was sent to the hands of Baiyunguan Yichang Zhenren. Yichang Zhenren read the letter with trembling hands, and slapped his palm on the table in anger.

"Cheap thief!" Yichang Zhenren's face was distorted, and he scolded despite the fact that there were still apprentices standing beside him: "I knew that what the master left me was not a real cultivation secret, and she dared to lie to me, saying that the master had left her nothing!" ”

The apprentice next to Yichang Zhenren had already changed his face, and he was so frightened that he lowered his head and didn't dare to speak, as long as she, the master, would beat and scold her as soon as she got angry, she really hated Qingchu Zhenren to death. Can't you stay honest, if you have to provoke Yichang Zhenren, you can't escape the beating.
