Chapter 230: Expensive or not

After returning home, they arranged a place for their group to stay. Fortunately, the three suites rented by Zhao Li have not been returned.

After settling down, Zhao Licai took them back to his home.

"Master, Elder Zhang!" Xiaolian Sannu immediately poured tea for the group.

"Wow, Xiaolian, it's amazing! You are getting younger and younger," the second senior brother shouted: "No, Ziming, take out your baby immediately, I can't stand watching you all get younger one by one!" ”

"Yes, Ziming will take out the baby first!" Senior Brother also hurriedly said.

Before, I saw that Master Qian and Zhang Lao had become younger, and they could still accept it, but Xiaolian and the others were already so young, and now they have suddenly become in their twenties, which is too scary.

"Haha, are you here to listen to the class or to collect debts, I can tell you, dragon fruit can be given to you, but you have to pay attention to it, don't be stupid like last time to share it with others!" Kong Lao smiled proudly.

"Yes, master, you can rest assured!" The senior brother patted his chest and said.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at him, Zhao Li also smiled and took out three dragon fruits from the reckless diagram in his hand. Placed on the table.

"Wow, is this dragon fruit, it's a bit extraordinary!" The second senior brother picked up a fruit and said.

"Since ancient times, there have been treasures in the grass, and it seems that the legend is still true!" The senior brother muttered while holding the fruit.

The third senior brother also looked at the fruit in his palm with confused eyes, this is something that money can't buy. Ban Xiang came back to his senses and said, "Is this just like this, but unfortunately there is only one." ”

If there is only one such good thing, he really can't bear to eat it, and there are still his parents, wife and children at home.

"Yes, junior brother, give us a few more!" The senior brother and the second senior brother also said expectantly.

It's a pity that he didn't wait for Zhao Li to speak. Kong Lao snorted on the side.

"Okay, it's already blessed that you can get one, if you weren't Senior Brother Ziming, you wouldn't have a piece of peel. I tell you that this fruit is too precious, it is not as large as the spirit fruit last time, and I can give you a little bit. In the future, this dragon fruit will be used as the foundation of our Confucianism. If there is a genius. Or those who have made a significant contribution to Confucianism can be divided. Ordinary people are wasted even if they eat it! ”

He also knew that these disciples had families, but so what, they were not from Confucianism, and they had not contributed to Confucianism. I didn't get a single fruit in my grandson's generation.

"Alas, I see, master!" The three senior brothers sighed one by one. After speaking, he looked at Zhao Li with straight eyes.

"Hehe, three senior brothers, it's useless for you to look at me, the fruits have been counted. The master is right, dragon fruit blooms every three hundred years, bears fruit every three hundred years, matures every three hundred years, and the cultivation world is rare to see in a thousand years, it is indeed luck that you can get one per person this time, of course, if your family enters Confucianism in the future, or makes great contributions to Confucianism. Surely we will not lose his fruit! Zhao Li explained with a smile.

"No, that's not a batch of fruit for 900 years. Isn't that similar to ginseng fruit? The second senior brother said with his eyes puffed out.

"Of course, and dragon fruit grows in lava, and ordinary people can't get it even if they are lucky enough to find it!" Zhao Li nodded.

"Lava, no wonder it's called dragon fruit, and there's a temperature." Senior Brother muttered.

Only then did they understand the preciousness of this dragon fruit. It is indeed rare to see in a thousand years, and they never ask for more anymore.

"Alright. The dragon fruit is given to you, you can just eat it directly, we have two things to do this time, one is to read, Kong Fan and Bingxin everyone has seen it. After a year of hard study, the two of them are already about to be happy. If you open your heart, you are a Confucian, and we always fish for three days and dry our nets for two days, but the result is still far behind. So everyone has to work hard. Faced by Kong Lao's words, everyone's eyes looked at Kong Fan and Kong Bingxin in shock.

"No, the eldest brother and the third sister are about to become Confucians, this is too fast!" Kong Long shouted.

A sour feeling welled up from everyone's hearts, to be honest, they didn't have much confidence in becoming Confucians, but the old man asked to come and study, and they could only come and try. But I really didn't expect Kong Fan and Kong Bingxin to persist for a year and achieve significant results. This makes them both envious and jealous.

"What's the matter, what kind of expression do you have," Kong Lao shouted: "Let me tell you, I used to read books for decades, although there was no result, but there was no one to lead the way, and now there is your little junior brother leading the way, you are still half-convinced, and now, Kong Fan and Bingxin are also going to become Confucians, now you should believe it." ”

"Although the books you have read for decades have no effect, the foundation has been laid after all, if you can also study hard in Zhou City for a year like Kong Fan and Bingxin, I believe you will also achieve results."

Kong Lao is really not joking, the disciples who can be accepted into the door by Kong Lao are naturally not bad. The four brothers and sisters of the Kong family have been trained by Kong Lao since they were children, and their foundation can be said to be very solid.

"Ah, master......" The three senior brothers were embarrassed by what the master said.

"Okay, I don't want to talk to you too much, you can do it yourself, I'll talk about the second thing now, that is, Ziming bought a small island in the center of the Xiangjiang River and built a Jiangzhou Academy. This academy will be the base camp of our Confucianism from now on. If your juniors want to come in and study, then you can send them in, of course, at least you have to graduate from high school, don't look down on this academy, if your juniors are talented, then we will reward dragon fruit. ”

"Ah, how much does it cost to buy an island to build a academy, do we Confucians still have such a background?" Senior Brother said. As the mayor of a city, he was very aware of the cost of building a school.

In this group of people in the academy, only the eldest brother and third sister, plus Kong Lao and Zhang Lao, knew about it. Others really don't know. Hearing Kong Lao say this, everyone looked at Zhao Li in surprise and then at Kong Lao.

"Look at what I'm doing, I haven't paid a penny." Kong Lao didn't have a good airway.

Seeing that everyone's eyes turned back to himself, Zhao Licai touched his nose embarrassedly and said:

"That, didn't I go to the West with Xuantian and them last time, after destroying Christ, we robbed all their treasures by the way, and the five of us each divided more than 100 tons of gold, and as a result, I exchanged more than 30 billion yuan of gold in the bank. It only cost 120 million to buy the island! ”

"More than 30 billion!" Everyone exclaimed.

Even Kong Lao was taken aback, although he knew that this disciple had a batch of gold, but he didn't expect that there would be so much.

The second senior brother and the fourth brother are even more speechless, as the boss, although they are relatively rich in running a company, they don't have more than 30 billion, they are fortunate to have worked hard all their lives, and as a result, they robbed once, and their net worth exceeded them I don't know how many times.

"Ziming, it turns out that you are the real local tyrant among us!" The second senior brother sighed.

"Yes, you're too shocking, don't you, even if your cultivation is better than ours, now you have more money than us, what else have you robbed besides robbing gold!" The fourth brother said in a muffled voice.

"And two boxes of jewelry, and a batch of ancient books!" Zhao Li replied honestly.

"And jewels and ancient books," everyone said at the same time.

"I'm not alive anymore, do you still have any company, you can have everything after one robbery!" The second senior brother shouted directly.

Although the two boxes of jewels are few, the jewels are now very valuable, and perhaps these two boxes of jewels are worth more than the gold, and the things that can be collected by Christ are certainly not bad.

"Yes, I didn't realize until today that the most lucrative job in the world is robbery. Grab it once and you won't have to work for the rest of your life! The elder brother also made a joke.

"Ziming, how much did you invest in building the academy," Kong Lao asked curiously.

"There are not many, I invited the builder to build according to the ancient garden style, and plan for 10 billion!" Zhao Li said calmly.

"Ten billion,"

For a while, everyone sank. After a while, Senior Brother said.

"Ziming, do you know how much it costs to build a university, I can tell you for sure that a medium-sized university is only about two billion, how big is your island, and it can cost ten billion."

"Yes, Ziming, you won't be hacked!"

"Don't hire a builder, I know a lot of construction companies,"

Zhao Li smiled and looked at everyone's excitement. I had to stand up and wave my hand:

"Okay, I understand what everyone means, but my 10 billion is just a plan, and I don't know how much I actually spend, but I believe that the builder will not dare to hack me. And do you think that ordinary buildings can be compared with ancient garden-style buildings built by builders? Modern architecture is nothing more than steel and cement, but I don't want that, whitewashed walls and tiles, pavilions and pavilions, this is not an ordinary construction company can do the job! ”

"Ancient garden style, that may really require so much money, and it is true that it cannot be used as our Confucian base camp to build ordinary buildings." Kong Lao also understood Zhao Li's thoughts.

Indeed, the building of a sect represents the face of a sect. It's too casual, that's also a Confucian face.

"Wow, the ancient garden style, or the construction of the home, and the cost is so big, I really want to see what the academy will look like after it is completed."

"I want to see it too!"

Now everyone doesn't say that this cost is expensive, there is indeed a reason why it is expensive. (To be continued......)
