Although Shen Tong has been waiting for such a long time, he must be a little unhappy in his heart, but his ability to observe words and emotions is stronger than that of ordinary people, and he knows the truth that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. The old man in front of him, although he didn't use his divine sense to observe, he couldn't judge his cultivation, and he couldn't feel the spiritual pressure, but the Li family is a huge family, and the person who can take on the responsibility of the housekeeper, even if the cultivation is not the most powerful in the family, but his status and power must be in an extremely high position.

And like him, at the moment, even whether his own courtyard can be preserved depends on playing heartbeat tricks, and the gap between them can be imagined.

Besides, the life of the spirit world is long, who knows what generation this old man is? Maybe it is some kind of great-ancestor of Li Ping, thinking about this relationship, what reason does he have to be impatient? Fortunately, his drowsiness has finally woken up, which makes him no longer have to wait for boredom.

"The junior Li Ping, on the order of the patriarch, came to listen to the orders. Shen Tong bowed and saluted, looking very respectful.

The old man slowly opened his eyes, looked at the kid in front of him carefully, and then said slowly: "Oh, it's that kid from Li Xian's family!

"The junior qualifications are dull and dare not slack off, please arrange the seniors. Shen Tong replied.

The old man reached out and took a cup of spiritual tea on the small table in front of him and drank it all, then beckoned to Li Ping and said, "How long have you been here?" Why didn't you wake me up earlier. ”

Shen Tong saw that the old man didn't talk about the topic at all, and couldn't help but think of the difficult customers he had encountered before. When he was a salesman, he was not less troubled by those customers, and his efforts to sign an order were really sad for the listeners and tears. But he didn't expect that now that he has reached the spirit world, he actually has to experience such a feeling again, which can't help but make him a little distracted, and he almost only needs to rely on instinct to deal with it.

"The juniors have just arrived, and it just so happens that the seniors have woken up. Shen Tong replied.

The old man seemed to nodded, picked up a cup casually and poured him a cup of tea, and then said: "You don't want the seniors to be long and the seniors are short, it sounds awkward, according to the seniority, you can call me the third uncle!" After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, motioning for Shen Tong to sit down and speak.

"It's the third uncle" Shen Tong responded, but he still stood still, maintaining a respectful look.

The old man didn't insist, and while tasting the spiritual tea, he drank, "I heard that you have been in retreat and cultivation for decades?"

Shen Tong replied: "It's a shame to say that the cultivation of the younger generation has been stagnant over the years, and it is really shameless to mention it. ”

The old man waved his hand and said: "On the way to cultivation, the blessings and misfortunes are unpredictable, and being trapped by bottlenecks is something that all monks will encounter, some people stop at the Jindan period, and some people stop at the foundation building period, and those who are finally trapped in the qi cultivation period account for the vast majority. Among the monks, even if the Heavenly Posture is extraordinary, and the peerless powerhouse who has cultivated all the way to the Transformation Stage, as long as he can't break the void and fly to the immortal realm for a day, he needs to follow the heavenly principles of birth, old age, sickness and death for a day, and the difference is only fifty steps and a hundred steps. ”

Although Shen Tong is not a person from the spirit world, but after fusing Li Ping's memories, he also thinks that the stronger the cultivation, the better, the simplest example is Li Ping's father, if he is still alive, with the strong cultivation of the monks in the later stage of the foundation building, the aunt's family still dares to run to make trouble? I'm afraid it's too late to slap them! But now listening to the old man's words, it seems to be quite reasonable, which makes him very surprised.

Looking at Shen Tong's contemplative appearance, the old man chuckled and said: "A person is a life, the grass and trees are spring, it doesn't matter how long you live, the most important thing is to live meaningfully." ”

Shen Tong came back to his senses, bowed and saluted: "The younger generation is taught." ”

The old man waved his hand and said: "It's a pity that this kid Li Xian left! Among the many sons and nephews, this kid is my favorite and most valued person, but it's a pity that he made people and died young." Child, you don't have to think too much, a little suffering at an early age, although unfortunate, is not necessarily all bad. Although it is comfortable to live under the protection of my father, how can the flowers that grow up in the greenhouse see the storm? If we live under this kind of protection forever, will life not be in vain? It was rumored that you have a cowardly personality, are ignorant of the world, have low cultivation, and are timid and incompetent, although I have a good relationship with my nephew and have the orders of the patriarch, I don't want this kind of incompetent person to enter the family shop and ruin the reputation of our Li family, now it seems that the rumors are really unreliable!"

Shen Tong couldn't help but be a little speechless, and after a long time, the old man was still deliberately observing and testing him. However, he was relieved in his heart, after all, the Li family can have such a scale today, obviously it has gone through the efforts of several generations and more than ten generations, and it is natural for people to be careful and careful.

The old man smiled: "Don't blame the old man for being too careful, but the responsibility, and I have to mention this responsibility." After all, the honor and disgrace of our Li clan is also related to your future life. ”

Shen Tong replied: "The juniors don't dare. ”

The old man smiled: "What dare you dare, compared to your father's free and easy temperament, your kid's hypocrisy is really unpleasant." However, without strength to rely on, you should really keep a low profile, and your temperament is indeed suitable for doing things in shops. At least compared to the Li Shou of the old fifth family, I think you have to be more suitable, and I also believe that you can do a good job. ”

Shen Tong replied: "The younger generation does his best, as long as he can not make any mistakes and not embarrass the family, he will be satisfied." ”

The old man took a sip of water, and said slowly: "It's been a long time, and it's not too early, let's talk about the business! In recent years, the expansion of the family shop has been relatively fast, and the shortage of manpower is great, so the treatment of the managers at all levels of the shop is also rising, but the requirements for cultivation strength in each place are also different, as for how to choose, it depends on your own trade-off, and in this, the old man is inconvenient to interfere." ”

Shen Tong said: "Please also ask the third uncle to make it clear." ”

The old man nodded, and then at some point, there was an extra white jade slip in his hand. I saw that the jade slip rose into the air, and then slowly floated towards Shen Tong, which made Shen Tong's expression tighten, but the old man picked up the teacup and said casually: "The relevant records are all inside, you can see for yourself!"

Fortunately, Shen Tong fused Li Ping's memories and knew how to read the contents, otherwise, the current situation would be enough for him to show his flaws. I saw that his divine consciousness moved, and a wisp of divine consciousness quickly wrapped around the jade slip in the sea of divine consciousness, and then the wisp of divine consciousness disappeared into the jade slip, and a paragraph of text appeared in the sea of divine consciousness, recording some detailed information, so that Shen Tong couldn't help but watch it seriously.

And after his wisp of consciousness came out, the old man who was drinking tea couldn't help but sigh lightly and glanced here. It's not that the old man saw that his divine sense was different, but he felt that Shen Tong's divine consciousness was very condensed, it seems that after all these years of retreat, although this kid's cultivation has always been on the sixth layer, but the degree of condensation of his divine consciousness is not weaker than that of ordinary eighth-layer monks, which is quite an interesting thing.

Where did Shen Tong know such a situation at this time, his mind was completely calm in the content of the jade slip, which was filled with vacancies and some specific requirements in the family shop.

"There are two shop stewards in Kamikaze City, who are required to cultivate to the tenth layer of the Qi cultivation period, are proficient in the production of primary talismans, and can receive twenty primary spirit stones every year. ”

"There is a shop manager in Zhenyuan City, who requires the cultivation of the twelfth layer of the Qi cultivation period, and can receive thirty primary spirit stones every year. ”

"An elder of the shops in Wushuang City, who requires that in the early stage of foundation building, he can receive 200 primary spirit stones and one intermediate spirit stone every year."

Looking at these records at the top, Shen Tong couldn't help but be a little speechless, none of them were suitable for him, which really made him a little ashamed, it seemed that Li Ping's sixth-level cultivation during the Qi training period was really a little unproductive! Looking down patiently, Shen Tong had a feeling of brightness.

"There is a shop manager in Dingyuan City, who requires the cultivation of the eighth layer of the Qi cultivation period, and can receive fifteen primary spirit stones every year. ”

"An elder of the shop in Qingyun Town, who requires cultivation to be the sixth layer of the Qi cultivation period, can receive ten primary spirit stones every year. ”

"An elder of the shop in Luofeng Town, who requires cultivation to be a sixth-layer ...... in the Qi cultivation period"

......

After a while, Shen Tong's divine sense couldn't help but withdraw from the jade slip, and then he muttered for a while and said, "Third Uncle, may I ask what is the difference between the elder and the steward in the shop?"

Putting down the teacup, the old man said calmly: "The steward needs to deal with some shop affairs, generally speaking, when you meet a monk in the foundation building period, you need to have a steward come forward to receive you, on the one hand, it is to show our Li family's respect for each other, and on the other hand, it is also convenient to complete the transaction and get the property." As for the elders, they only need to be responsible for dealing with big things when they encounter big things in the store, and they can usually practice on their own, but in this way, the age of the elder is naturally much less, unless it is an elder in the foundation building period. Of course, except for the Peerless City, other shops don't need monks from the foundation building period to sit in charge. ”

Shen Tong nodded, and then said, "Third uncle, then the junior will go to Luofeng Town to serve as an elder." ”

After his words were finished, the old man couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at him in surprise, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "Go to Luofeng Town?
