Chapter 35: The Temple of Gold and Silver
The night wolf is alarmed, thousands of miles to see off, of course, it is definitely not so exaggerated, but there are always ten miles, after all, Ye Weiyang is the younger brother of the head of the regiment, and it is the head of the regiment Ye Yan himself who is accompanying him, of course, everyone is also a little selfish, and when the head of the regiment is gone, let's magnify the fake, ahahaha, in the end, Zhang Luo will be able to drink the strongest wine at night, and the most beautiful person in the day, so everyone's interest is especially high.
There are more than thirty men, all of them are strong and sturdy, and each of them rides a tall horse under his crotch: you can't underestimate these horses, these are all hybrids with spirit animals, with wild bloodline power. Running is the wind, sweating is rain, and neighing is thunder.
Of course, some people don't ride horses, and they sit proudly on a few large birds with saddle bridles. These are also beasts mixed with the blood of spirit beasts, with huge wingspans, cyan feathers, sharp claws, long beaks, and many small teeth in their mouths. They are also of great interest.
Ye Weiyang didn't ride a horse, or a bird. He rode a great lion, with a gray mane and a dark gray body, as if it had been made of stone, and with an unstoppable look in his eyes, he kept stretching and retracting the sharp claws of the huge flesh pad, leaving deep potholes in the earth. The people present all stayed away respectfully, and gave way one after another, they knew that it was a real spirit animal, and they heard that it was the little lion that the head of the regiment brought back, and it had been kept by Ye Erye's side, so it naturally became his mount.
Ye Yan also didn't ride a horse, or a bird, he didn't even ride a lion with a soft mane and a hairy lion, the head of the regiment was relying on his peak state in the winter period, ready to walk all the way and torment everyone. Of course, Yunfei knew that Ye Yan didn't want to attract attention on the road, he had explained to the two of them that he would only make a move when he was really in danger, and he wouldn't even say a word about the rest.
Of course, some people have noticed Yun Fei, although he is the most inconspicuous, he is also eye-catching. Some looked at each other, pointed, and others simply laughed:
"Look! The boy who sells the lamb! ”
But some people also raised doubts: I heard that this kid is a treasure in the eyes of the head of the regiment, and it is too shabby to ask him to ride a goat, right? Ye Yan is not the kind of stingy person!
Therefore, the brains widened their eyes, staring at the white, bearded, twisted goat, almost trying to hold the dust in the palm of their hands and smell it, to identify it. Someone finally recognized, how could it be an ordinary goat? The person who said that must have a sick eye, or he has never seen the world! It's a real spirit animal: a pronghorned sheep!
Soon, the night wolf's exaggerated ten-mile send-off scene was thrown behind by them, and the noisy surroundings gradually quieted down with the footsteps, making people's ears gradually relax, just as Yunfei's mind was still echoing with those people discussing the "forked horn sheep", Ye Weiyang strangled the lion and brought a big head over.
"In this business, we only say that we are wandering merchants, selling brocade and embroidery from Qingchuan, not to say that we are going to the unnamed religion, and it is rare to join the church, so I am afraid that people will be worried."
Ye Weiyang was still very cautious, and Yunfei nodded. "In that case, will we meet other people who have entered the fatwa or want to go to the unnamed religion?"
"Is it more than 'will'? It's 'inevitably'! Ye Weiyang swore and said, "And joining the church is not just as simple as needing to enter the church, the number of admission orders issued each year will be more than the number of recruits, so everyone who holds the order needs to compete with each other, if you form a companionship before that competition, it's fine, if you get into trouble with some tricky people...... I'm afraid that by that time it will be targeted by the group. And ah,"
Ye Weiyang's eyes narrowed in some frustration. "Some people come from cultivation families, and their families have influence in the Weiming Sect, and they can even suppress one side in the red dust, so we are a single small individual who can't fight at all, so we can only stay away."
Yun Fei was a little sad when he heard what he said, and he also felt some sadness about the fallen people at the end of the world. The Luo family he came from can be regarded as one of the top families among civil officials, but as the eldest daughter of the Luo family, even if Luo Qingjia can never forget and has the talent to guide the country, he can't cross the gap of "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented".
"Not necessarily." Yun Fei thought of the past, and couldn't help but shake his head, "The mountains don't turn around, and in the thirty years of Hexi and Hedong, who knows what the situation will be like now?" ”
"What do you mean?" Ye Weiyang asked hesitantly.
"I mean: Can their cultivation family cover the sky with one hand forever?" Yun Fei gritted his teeth firmly, and then pulled out a subtle smile. "I've heard that those who used to practice must be in the three religions, and the rest are heretics. However, about 100 years ago, there was a proof of cultivation such as 'Taitu', and since then the practice of the people has been legalized, isn't this the trend of the times? ”
Ye Weiyang touched his ears and listened with great interest.
"And listening to what you mean, it seems that many cultivators from the folk will be suppressed by the people of the so-called 'cultivation family'?" Yun Fei walked forward with the sheep and asked.
"Eighty percent." Ye Weiyang thought for a while.
"Hopefully we're the remaining two." Yun Fei thought so in his heart, he said. "The exclusion of dissident forces itself represents a kind of fear, which probably shows that the cultivation family is also panicking about the rise of folk cultivation, and they want to work hard to stifle them, drive them out of the Great Sect forever, and not give them a chance to further practice."
Ye Weiyang nodded, and then gritted his teeth tightly, he knew that Ye Yan had been in the Weiming Sect back then, and it was probably because of this kind of thing that he was trapped. "I think it makes sense when you say that."
Yunfei smiled slightly, silent. In fact, he wanted to say that if you read too much history and political files, you will also have such a "vision", and some things are just the same routine repeated in different eras. "According to this statement, even if we reach the unnamed religion, we are not separated from the land of right and wrong, but we are deeper into the quagmire, and we really have to be careful."
He turned his head to look for Ye Yan's trace, but found that the person was gone, but Yun Fei knew that he had been watching them secretly and did his best to give them free space.
Maybe Yunfei has an advantage in predicting the situation, but "not eating the fireworks of the world" will never be able to survive in the red dust, they also need one very important thing - money.
Ye Yan did stuff a lot of them, and it was a large pile of tickets for the "Gold and Silver Palace". The so-called "gold and silver palace" is the "money bank" in the usual sense, but the mortal money bank is located on the first floor, and the main business handled is only "deposit and withdraw silver". But as soon as you go up and reach the second level, which is forbidden to mortals, you will find that your vision suddenly opens up.
Yun Fei looked inside in surprise, but Ye Weiyang was very calm, turning around with his hands behind his back. Ye Yan gave them a total of five thousand taels of silver tickets, but Ye Weiyang didn't seem to be in a hurry to cash them. They wandered around the spacious second floor, constantly examining the contents of it. There are not many people here, but the decoration is magnificent. In the huge room, only a small corner is for the deposit and withdrawal of silver, and the rest is a crystal transparent display cabinet with neat walls, which is scattered with colorful treasures.
"This is the bank?" Yun Fei glanced at the display cabinet beside him, a strand of blonde hair cost a hundred taels of silver, which was a robbery.
"Yes, not really." Ye Weiyang seemed to be familiar with the routine for a long time, starting from the door with his hands behind his back, and looked at the display cabinets one by one. "Teach you a way to make money, called: reselling treasures. The 'town' like Qingchuan Town we came to is the place with the lowest prices, so you have to buy something with a lot of appreciation space and take it to Weimingjiao to sell, so that you can keep it and make no loss. Ye Weiyang said with an oath. Seven districts, nine counties and thirty-two towns, this is not only the order of their regional scale, but also the order of their prices, you have to know in your heart. ”
"This ...... Is this okay? Yun Fei was taken aback by this big theory, he never cared about money and prices!
"It's called the 'rules' of every line." Ye Weiyang shook his head. "Sometimes we send mercenaries for some merchants to look for elixirs or other treasures and valuable things in the Sunset Forest. What do you think they want these elixirs for? Taking? Reserve? Not exactly. Qingchuan Town is a small place, correspondingly, the prices are pitiful, and the commissions are relatively small. Speaking of elixir alone, the price of the general variety is only thirty taels of silver, plus twenty percent of the mercenary fee, thirty-six taels. That is to say, a good elixir is worth thirty-six taels in the hands of a merchant. ”
"And what about other districts? What about counties? Hundreds or even thousands, more than tenfold. Therefore, not only merchants, but also many cultivators from small folk families, took the opportunity to go home and hire mercenaries to run into the forest again and again, hoarding more elixirs and treasures. When you get to the Great Sect, you can not only supply your own needs, but you can also sell them and earn some extra money - gold and silver, which are all good things. ”
Ye Weiyang said, rubbing his hands like a fan of small wealth, as if there were thousands of golden sand and silver sand rolling in front of him.
Yun Fei couldn't help but giggle when he looked at him like this. Of course, he did not object to Ye Weiyang's proposition. He used to be Miss Luo's family, and he never lacked money, but since he became "Yunfei", he swallowed wild vegetables and touched chickens when he was embarrassed.
"Of course, money is a good thing......," Yunfei said. But I really can't imagine that in the past, I thought that cultivators were beings who were above the red dust and looked at the world arrogantly, but now that I think about it, hehe, it seems that there is not much difference from mortals. ”
"That's it! Cultivators also have to eat, they also have to pick up girls, and they have to find treasures and opportunities, which one must not invest a lot of money? And what can you do after graduating from the Great Church? If you don't pay your salary, you can't rob money, right? As the saying goes, gold shines anywhere, and powerful people can be used everywhere, and if it's not powerful, it's useless, right? Hey, in the final analysis, we are poor, unlike those cultivators, a family of peerless cultivators from generation to generation, with a heritage, the back waves push the front waves, they belong to leeks, one stubble is higher than another, and the family resources are inexhaustible......"
After that, he didn't say anything more, Ye Weiyang lowered his head, pretending to look at the treasures in the counter carefully, but Yun Fei knew that he didn't want to hear such words to Ye Yan, this kind of thing that seemed to be complaining about his bad background.
"Ye Weiyang, have you ever heard of a saying called 'Twenty-Eight Law'? It is said that those flowering plants will only produce two flowers after they have eight leaves, so people often say that those eight leaves are used to make wedding dresses for flower lovers. ”
Yun Fei said as he lingered between the counters, his eyes sweeping over the colorful treasures. So, what's the use of complaining? What's the use of cool talk? As long as we become two flowers that bloom on top of eight leaves, we will be considered successful. ”
He tapped his finger on the counter and pointed to a weakened spiritual material inside, "So my principle of buying things is to choose the best two out of ten, twenty out of a hundred, 52 out of all the treasures here, and then one or two treasures at the end. Yun Fei's face was expressionless, Ye Weiyang's grief just now had not subsided, and bursts of incredulity immediately surged to his face.
"You...... Listen to me and see all the products at the same time? ”
Yun Fei tapped his finger at the spiritual material in the counter again. "A person's brain is divided into two halves, and if you only do one thing at a time, wouldn't it be a waste of space? Boss? What about the boss? I want this, that kid pays! ”
