Chapter 6: Ascending to Mien and Bearing Rice Revenge (I)
“…… Was I so ridiculous and confused before? ”
Hearing Uncle Yu euphemistically mention his various deeds in the past few years, Qin Luyan could only smile bitterly.
As the future heir of the family, and the only younger brother, her resource quota is the most generous among her peers, more than those family elders.
And because of the patriarch in the Xuanling Palace, the sect will also have a monthly resource allocation, which is assigned to her.
It can be said that her conditions are far better than those of ordinary family elite children, coupled with her excellent qualifications at that time, as long as she is willing to work hard, how can she say that she is also a five-fold cultivation of the Qi Refining Realm now, and it is not too difficult to become a qualified disciple of Xuanling Palace.
However, since the mysterious disappearance of her father and the death of her mother, the power of the head of the family has fallen, and she was secretly calculated by her cousins and sisters, her personal personality and style have become extremely unreliable. As soon as she gets her hands on these precious resources distributed by the family on a monthly basis, most of them will be generously given by her to those relatives around her who can only slap their beards and flatter them.
Without the assistance of resources, and oneself is indulged in comfort and fun, this cultivation will naturally not advance but retreat. It can be seen how vicious Qin Haiyuan's gang is.
The family treasury is a magnificent and huge courtyard.
The square in front of the gate is paved with smooth cyan millstone bricks, and the two-zhang wide vermilion lacquer gate is neatly decorated with countless brass nails the size of bowls, shining in the sunlight, revealing the majesty of the tower.
A group of black-clothed guards with grim faces and large waists stood in a row in front of the gate with weapons in their arms, maintaining order.
At this time, there were already three or two family disciples arriving, and they were gathering in the square and patiently waiting for the arrival of the family elders.
“…… Second cousin, I haven't seen you for a few months, are you already a triple Qi Refining Realm? It looks like the resource quota will be increased quite a bit this time. A voice full of envy suddenly sounded.
"It's okay, but it's a pity that I'm not a child of the concubine, and I can't add much." A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy in black said with a little regret.
"Yes, yes, the treatment of our clansmen is a lot worse than the lineage, and it feels unfair when you think about it?" A girl with a bit of a posture said indignantly.
"That's right, there are also many people with excellent qualifications among the children of the side branches, why should they be inferior to their descendants?" Someone chimed in.
The black-clothed young man looked at his fellow clans around him and said lightly: "If all the clansmen in the clan are elites, then there is nothing to say. It's a pity that some people who don't have the ability to occupy high positions and enjoy the best resources, but they don't do their jobs all day long, only know how to eat, drink, and enjoy, I really don't know what those elders think. ”
All the side children have a look of injustice on their faces, and who the black-clothed young man is alluding to, everyone naturally understands.
"Come on, that girl won't be proud for a few days, and when she is announced to be eliminated by the messenger of Xuanling Palace, the only end is to be deposed and married out of the Qin Mansion, see how she will show off in the future!" A pockmarked teenager sneered.
Another young man with twinkling eyes and a slick philistine smiled: "You can't say that, that eldest lady still gave us a lot of benefits in the past, if it weren't for her generosity, how could we get those good things that only the descendants of the descendants are eligible to enjoy?" ”
"Well, that's right."
A bald young man with a mean face said: "I'm about to approach the triple threshold of the Qi Refining Realm this time, and I will ask her to help me exchange ten catties of iron-scaled red lizard meat and bring it back to boil soup and drink, and strive to break through as soon as possible!" ”
The iron-scaled red lizard beast is a kind of fierce beast that lives in the barren mountains and mountains outside Tanzhou City, it is fierce by nature, walking like flying, and the adult individual can grow to hundreds of catties in size, which is a kind of guy who is quite difficult to deal with. Its flesh is delicate, and it can be used to nourish vitality when used to make soup, and it is a very popular ingredient for beginner cultivators.
A girl in a pink gauze skirt smiled and said, "Iron-scaled red lizard meat is not cheap, your appetite is really not small, then I want a Han Yuan Dan." ”
The young man with flashing eyes and a slick philistine quickly calculated for a moment, and said, "My cultivation is also about to reach the third level, so I will ask her for five liters of topaz crystal rice, she has so many resource quotas, it is appropriate to divide some of us." ”
Topaz crystal rice comes from a kind of high-grade spiritual rice rich in spiritual energy, which needs to be planted in mountains with good feng shui and spiritual veins, and cultivated with pure mountain springs mixed with the spiritual blood of some precious fierce beasts, and special people to take care of it day and night.
Regular consumption of this kind of spiritual rice, has the effect of cleansing the body impurities, purifying the blood and viscera, due to the high cost of cultivation, only the wealthy families in northern Xinjiang have enough financial resources to plant.
Suddenly, the group of guys got together and gossiped, quickly discussed the distribution plan for this month, and then happily waited for the arrival of the "fortune boy".
After a while, the door of the family treasury slowly opened.
Several old men with serious faces came out of it, glanced at these family disciples outside, and one of the old men said loudly: "This month's family cultivation resources have been prepared, everyone come in turn to receive them, pay attention to order, don't make noise!" ”
Everyone straightened up their expressions and lined up one after another.
A huge thousand-year-old cold iron and wood table was set up inside the door, and several elders sat in the back, spread out the roster of the children of the family, carefully checked the identity of each person and the number of resources they should receive, and then the many servants next to them quickly took out the things by their hands and feet, packed them, and finally handed them over.
The Qin family has a big business and strict rules, and there are as many as hundreds of children who are eligible to be included in the resource supply roster, and it takes almost a morning for all of them to be distributed. In the afternoon, it will be the turn of the elders, the deacons and supervisors of each room, the maids, the head of the guards, etc., including the ordinary servants, who will have a certain amount of monthly bounty to be distributed.
Qin Luyan and Uncle Yu came a little later, so they waited for a while before it was her turn.
Including the quota of Xuanling Palace, she could receive ten Han Yuan Pills, twenty Replenish Yuan Pills, twenty-five catties of iron-scaled red lizard beast meat, and thirty liters of topaz crystal rice every month. In addition, she has a quota of up to 15,000 taels of silver, and she can freely exchange the goods she needs from the treasury.
Although Uncle Yu is the chief administrator of the Qin Mansion, and his status is equivalent to that of the family's real power elder, because he does not have the identity of a disciple of Xuanling Palace, his monthly resource quota is only half of hers.
"What is the eldest lady going to exchange? Decide as soon as possible! ”
Elder Qin Xilian, who was in charge of the distribution of resources, said in a flat tone, a slight look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
She nodded, and said gently, "I need five catties of deep-sea tiger striped star grouper meat, ten liters of topaz crystal rice, and twenty Replenishing Yuan Pills." May I? ”
"Huh?"
Elder Qin raised his eyebrows, and there was obvious surprise in his eyes when he looked at her.
In the past, every time she received resources, the eldest lady would directly exchange most of the quota into cash, and then go out with those relatives to travel in the mountains and rivers and squander it, which made the elders very disdainful and extremely disappointed in her.
But today, Qin Luyan's unexpected move made Elder Qin Xilian a little unable to react for a while.
Qin Luyan smiled apologetically and repeated her request again.
"Okay!"
Qin Xilian didn't say anything anymore, and glanced at the servants beside him, and they immediately went to get busy.
After a while, a palm-sized green jade medicine bottle and two white jade bottles were delivered to her, and three huge diamond porcelain altars were also carried out by the servants.
The high-grade ingredients used by such cultivators must be carefully sealed to ensure that the aura inside is not lost.
After Qin Luyan checked it and confirmed that it was correct, she signed and signed it with satisfaction. I went out with Uncle Yu, and naturally the servants came to carry the big jars to the yard where I lived.
Outside the gate of the treasury, a group of family members had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw her come out, they immediately couldn't wait to surround her.
"Miss!"
"Cousin!"
"Sister Yeon!"
“……”
Their tones were warm and almost close, and their eyes were fiery and greedy as they stared at the stupid and wealthy heir of the family, hoping that the other would be able to respond.
Uncle Yu frowned and looked at the eldest lady with some concern.
Qin Luyan smiled coldly, and said indifferently: "Brothers and sisters, the entrance assessment of Xuanling Palace is imminent, I want to hurry up and go back to retreat, so I won't accompany you today, everyone, please take care of yourself!" ”
"What......" everyone's faces couldn't help but stiffen, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.
I have the impression that this eldest lady is very generous, as long as the sweet words make her happy, she will definitely have her own benefits. But today's reaction to the other party's ...... Something is wrong!
"Miss, I want to ......," the slick young man with twinkling eyes and a slick philistine still said unrelentingly.
Qin Luyan glanced at him indifferently, and said coldly: "Qin Fang, if you want anything, go and discuss it with your family, my resources, I don't have enough myself." ”
"......" Qin Fang looked at her incredulously, not understanding what was wrong.
At this moment, Qin Haiyuan came over with a few followers.
