As soon as Chu Tianxiu's bold words came out, the Jinluan Hall instantly became dead and silent.

Empress Dowager Shen, Emperor Xiang Yanran, princes and princesses, ladies and ladies, and gentlemen. The people in the hall all looked at him in shock and amazement.

...

I'll go!

After the old Taoist priest Li finished boasting, he was about to drink with a wine cup.

Hearing Xiao Du's words, his iron hand suddenly trembled, the corners of his mouth trembled, and he almost peed out in fright.

He looked at Chu Tianxiu in horror.

The poor road is just talking, and it's just a mouthful.

So that the emperor, the princes and princes of the Manchu Dynasty and everyone in the world know that although the poor road has alchemy powers, the conditions for refining the elixir are too harsh and cannot be done at all.

Isn't the implication of the poor road obvious enough?

Dozens of thousand-year-old elixirs, costing hundreds of thousands of silver, and one or two decades of hard work.

People with a little brain understand that it is not easy to do any of them - there are so many difficulties and obstacles, and the poor road is telling you bitterly that this elixir cannot be refined, don't think about it.

You little faint marquis, why do you have to think about it, you have to throw a hundred thousand taels of silver out to show that you have silver?!

Thou hast a lot of money.

There is only one life in this way, don't drag the poor road to die together!

This~... This, how should Bendao round out the big words next?

Li was naturally sitting on pins and needles, and he was already panicked in his heart.

Could it be that this Dao wants to accept this huge amount of silver in the name of refining the elixir... Embark on the road of no return to flee with silver?

But in this Great Chu Dynasty, the prosperous and rich land is all in Jinling City, as well as Chang'an, Luoyang, Chengdu and other capitals, and a lot of silver can be put to use.

If he flees to a poor and remote land, no man's land, what is the use of asking for 100,000 taels of silver, and what is the difference between following him with 10,000 catties of stones?!

He is not stupid, no matter how much gold and silver he has, he can only enjoy it at the foot of the Imperial City of the Son of Heaven, and he can only eat soil and chaff when he hides in the countryside!

Like Xu Fu, the ancestor of the pre-Qin Dynasty, he took 3,000 boys and girls to the east to find Penglai Immortal Mountain for the first emperor, and disappeared in the vast East China Sea.

That's stupid, maybe it capsized in the waves and storms, or ran into a big fish monster dozens of feet, and went to the sea to feed the fish monster.

With his mouth that can boast and fool people, lie flat at the foot of the imperial city and enjoy his life, admired by his disciples and worshiped by pilgrims, isn't it more refreshing!

If it weren't for the real material to mix up some boasting, he wouldn't even want to go to Shanxi to pray for rain and look for Ganoderma lucidum in the East China Sea, and he didn't get any benefits from his hard work.

It's just a moment.

Li naturally felt that he was blowing, and suddenly slipped outside the ghost gate, and his back was drenched in cold sweat.

He is already deeply reflecting, he has never had anything to do with Xiao Duhou, when did he offend this Jinling's number one big gentleman Xiao Duhou!

Could it be that he entered the Jinluan Palace and didn't say hello to the little dusk marquis?!

...

The old dusk marquis was making great strides at the palace banquet, wanting to eat more.

He deliberately starved for two days and had an empty stomach. It is to eat a sumptuous meal at this palace banquet, and go back to be hungry for a day.

He was biting on the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and heard the bold words that Xiao Duhou wanted to donate 100,000 taels of silver to Immortal Li for alchemy.

The chopsticks in the old dummy's hand fell on the table with a "bang".

"Xiu'er, you're crazy!"

The old dusk Hou opened his mouth wide and looked at Chu Tianxiu in disbelief.

Sponsor Li Lao Immortal... Divine stick, 100,000 taels of silver, to refine that bullshit elixir?

Even if the Dumhou Mansion is demolished, you won't be able to take out the 100,000 taels!

As for King Ping's Mansion, King Ping can still give him a son-in-law who comes to the door and take out 100,000 taels of silver, don't dream.

If Xiao Duhou can't come up with 100,000 taels of silver, wouldn't it be a crime of deception?!

But when he looked at Chu Tianxiu's expression, it was clear that he would not give up without taking out the 100,000 taels of silver.

The old faint Marquis Chuyong couldn't help but feel sad and tearful.

In the past, Xiao Duhou never took out his own silver, only the silver in other people's bags.

This son really became stupid, he was knocked unconscious by him with a mallet that night and sent to Pingwangfu, and he was completely brainless.

...

"Husband, don't~!"

Li Yu's face changed color in an instant, his heart trembled, and he pulled Chu Tianxiu's sleeve, his beautiful face was full of despair.

Everyone else is just watching the excitement, and they don't need to pay for any money.

But she, that's really going to pay for money!

She was already worried in her heart that Chu Tianxiu would make something happen at the Lantern Festival Qinhuai River Lantern Festival.

But that was fifteen days later. She still has enough time to make ample preparations, just in case her husband tosses in the lantern festival.

But Li Yu never thought of it.

In a trance, the husband actually promised 100,000 taels of silver at the palace banquet where all the princes and princes gathered under the noses of the emperor and the queen mother.

One hundred thousand taels of silver!

This is not a few thousand taels of silver, a painless little money.

Her private small silver vault has spent more than ten years to accumulate silver, and it is almost all tossed in one go. In exchange, it was an ethereal "elixir" that I don't know if it could be refined, or it was dedicated to the emperor and the queen mother.

Husband, this is a crazy person, the more people there are, the more lively they are, and the more energetic he tosses. I don't want to think that I don't have a copper plate in my pocket!

The money in the small private treasury has been squandered, and even the dowry has been added, how will I live in the future!

Zu'er and Di'er, the two maids looked at each other, completely dumbfounded.

100,000 taels of silver!

Oh my God, my uncle is crazy.

squandered the silver accumulated by the county lord for more than ten years, and they will all be poor with their uncle in the future. You can only spend a few copper plates a day, and you can live with coarse bran of pickled vegetables every day.

In the future, I will live by the eyes of the second lady.

Miserable!

Both of them had red eyes, tears in their eyes, and they wanted to cry without tears.

Zu'er pitifully held Chu Tianxiu's sleeve, his face full of pleading.

Uncle, let's stop making trouble.

Go home and live a good life, okay?!

...

The second lady, Xie Liyuan, showed a smug smile at the corner of her mouth invisibly.

Xiao Duhou, this good son-in-law... This is self-inflicted!

This breath squandered the county lord's private small treasury.

In the future, whether it is the proud county lord Li Yu, or the little faint marquis who has no one in his eyes, he wants to spend a lot of money, and he doesn't beg her, look at her second lady's face!

Her second mother swallowed her anger and finally got out of it.

Finally, she became the second lady of the Ping Wangfu who really controlled the financial power of the upper and lower levels of the government.

...

The cup in the hand of Li Rong, the king of Ping, trembled slightly and invisibly.

Son-in-law!

Son-in-law!

Li Rong always thought that with a wave of his hand, he spent 50,000 taels of silver to build a five-story building of the first library of the Great Chu Dynasty, which was already proud of the top ten gates in Jinling.

Later, Prime Minister Xie Huyong, Deputy Prime Minister Wang Su, and Lord Kong Hanyou and other three princes and nine princes were invited to come to the Pingwang Mansion to visit his sweat cow Chongdong, and some boasted.

However, I didn't expect that my son-in-law was the real son-in-law.

Even if the son-in-law didn't have a copper plate in his pocket at all, he still dared to take 100,000 taels of silver to refine the elixir out of thin air, and dedicated it to the emperor and the queen mother, making such bold words that shocked the palace.

Such a heroic son-in-law is worthy of his Li Rong's son-in-law, breathtaking.

The only thing he was curious about was where Hao's son-in-law came up with the 100,000 taels of silver. If he asked Yu'er for this silver, he would have to kick this son-in-law out of the Pingwang Mansion and sleep on the street.
