Chapter Eighty-Nine: Trouble Comes to the Door
In every city, there will be a variety of industries, which can ensure the normal operation of a city.
Like the tooth line, there is it in the city of mustard.
The tooth shop is actually an intermediary.
The business engaged in by the dental store is very complicated, as long as you need it, it is their business scope. As long as you have money, it is not a problem for you to hunt for everyone's beauty, buy a house, get a person, etc. They are all formed by local landlords, well-informed, and tactful, absolutely nothing to say.
If you want to buy a yard here, you can't go wrong with them.
"Young Master, what do you think of this courtyard?"
The steward sent by the tooth shop took Zhou Li around a few courtyards, and finally there was one that was more in line with Zhou Li's wishes.
In fact, Zhou Li's requirements are not high, a courtyard with a garden is enough, and there are front and back yards.
Obviously, this courtyard is indeed in line with Zhou Li's meaning. In particular, the style of this garden is somewhat like the style of Suzhou garden, which makes Zhou Li feel comfortable. In addition, the price of this courtyard is not high, and the location is a little off, but for a cultivator of the Venerable level, it is nothing
After turning around and looking at some details, Zhou Li has already made a decision.
The steward of the tooth shop is also a person with eyes, and when he saw Zhou Li checking these details, he knew that the matter had basically been completed, and suddenly showed a smile: "Young master, the former owner of this courtyard, but he is a ** clean and tidy master, and everything is cleaned up by Yu Jingli." After taking over, our dental store sent someone to inspect it again to ensure that there would be no problems. ”
"That's it, I want this yard. "Zhou Li's actions are not so complicated.
The money comes quickly, and with Zhou Li's potential earning power, he doesn't care about the price.
The steward, waiting for this sentence, said: "The young master has a good eye, the tooth shop will help the young master hunt for free when the time comes, you see ......"
Zhou Li smiled: "The price is as you say." ”
"No problem, the credibility of our Huitong Dental Bank is one of the best in Floating Mustard City. The steward hurriedly replied, this business, his commission is quite a lot, so naturally he needs to work hard.
All that is missing in the yard is some daily necessities, which you can move in and move in.
The efficiency of the dental store is indeed very high, and the yard bought in the morning can already be moved in in the afternoon. The entire courtyard covers an area of about five acres, and when it is placed in the Floating Mustard City, it can only be regarded as a small courtyard, and it is enough to have ten people.
Two hospitable maids, two coachmen, two gardeners, two housekeepers, and finally the two are the kitchen workers.
The most standard composition is not as good as the group of house slaves in the big yard, but it also makes Zhou Li satisfied.
After all, it was a place of cultivation, and Zhou Li didn't pay much attention to it.
Check-in in the afternoon, there is no joy of relocation, it is very simple to move in.
The ten subordinates were all standing in the open space of the courtyard, with apprehension in their hearts. From the moment they entered this house, their lives belonged to the young master in front of them, and the master wanted them to die, they couldn't live, this was the rule.
Whether you can live well or not depends on the character of the owner.
For these ten people, they were selected by Zhou Li, and Zhou Li had seen all their information.
The two maids have the strength of the fifth order of the qi, the coachman is the seventh order of the qi, the gardener is the first order, the housekeeper is the first order of the spirit, and the kitchen is the third order.
The prices in the tooth shop are all marked according to the cultivation level, and each realm, each level, will lead to a different price. This price is not final, your appearance will also determine the fluctuation of the price, it will not be when the strength is the same, the ugly is more expensive than the beautiful, right?
As for a person's personality and cleverness, it depends on the vision you choose, and there is no way to guarantee this one.
Glancing at them, looking at their nervous looks, Zhou Li smiled a little bitterly, the Nine Nether Realm has stricter rules in this regard, compared to the small world. Some of the subordinates in the small world are hired, but in the Nine Netherworlds, they completely belong to the master, that is to say, after entering the house, life and death are under the master's control.
was beaten to death, and there was no place to reason.
It's extravagant enough to say, in the small world, most of the subordinates are ordinary people, and few are cultivators.
However, in the Nine Nether Realms, there are only cultivators, and there are no ordinary people. No matter how lazy you are, no matter how talented you are, it is hardly a big problem to become a qi person when you become an adult, like the martial artist level, which is just the level where children are staying.
The spirit level is still just a family, which is unimaginable in the small world, but here, it is a low demand, and the cultivators of the venerable level still treat people as dogs.
"Master Ben, it's very easy to speak, as long as you follow the rules, you won't be embarrassed, but who wants to do it according to the rules, even this small yard can't be taken care of, don't blame Master Ben for being ruthless. Zhou left, just this words, why is it so awkward?
Master Ben?
Zhou Li was a little speechless, but over the years, he has adapted a little.
The ten people below did not speak, and they did not dare to interrupt the master's words, so they could only listen carefully.
Zhou Li said: "Master Ben doesn't know what the wages of the people outside are, but working under Master Ben will definitely not treat you badly." ”
Yamen has already talked about the general wage problem, like a maid only about 100 spirit coins a month, the coachman is a job with no skills, only 80 spirit coins per month, after all, they don't have much time to use, that is, to help run errands. The family is slightly higher, 150 spirit coins, and the kitchen and gardener are also 100 spirit coins.
At this kind of price, Zhou Li felt that it was a bit too bullying.
A bowl of noodles outside will cost between two and five spirit coins, and this dare to love one hundred spirit coins is enough to eat noodles for half a month.
Of course, Zhou Li needs to be responsible for their diet and daily life, and this hundred spirit coin can be saved.
After thinking about it for a while, these people can be regarded as their own people, there is no need to treat them badly, they are doing well, they will naturally serve better and exhaust themselves. Anyway, this bit of money has not been put in Zhou Li's eyes.
"In this way, the maid will pay three hundred spirit coins a month, the coachman will be two hundred and five, the family will be four hundred, and the cooks and gardeners will be two hundred. These wages are not immutable, and in the future, depending on who is good, whose wages will be raised, and what contributions will be made, and the lord will have a reward. ”
As soon as Zhou Li's salary came out, the people under him were stunned, which was a full increase of two or three times.
"Ah, thank you, thank you, sir. ”
One is to people, naturally they are overjoyed, and they are grateful for Dai Xiao.
Zhou Li waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's disperse." ”
After all, this yard has not been inhabited for a while, and the two gardeners naturally need to prune and prune.
Like adding some pots and bowls, etc., it's the kitchen's business. If there is any need, it is to tell the coachman to buy it, and a beast cart was sent to the tooth shop, which is only for temporary use, and two beast carts need to be added, one for errands, and one for people who are usually fine.
And the two maids were also clever and busy, and soon made a pot of tea and sent it to Zhou Li.
"Master, this tea is a little bit off, you will be on it. "This is just the most ordinary tea, ordinary people are also this tea, and when it comes to the master, it must be at a lower price.
Zhou Li's mouth has long been in his mouth, in the small world, when is the tea not the best tea? It's just that Zhou Li is not picky, and he will taste it on the spot, in some large-leaf tea like the earth, a kind of tea that rough people drink.
"Okay, new move-in, there are a lot of things, you better go and get busy first, if there is anything not enough, just add it." ”
Zhou Li threw five thousand spirit coins to Mingyue, her face is standard and attractive, the key is to be clever and have a certain accounting ability. In a small courtyard, there is no need for any housekeeper, just hand over this account to one of the maids, that is, Mingyue.
"Master Xie trusts. Mingyue was suddenly moved.
waved his hand to let Mingyue retreat, just two maids, and one of the plain ones, if they don't trust them, who can they trust?
After drinking all the coarse tea in his hand, Zhou Li returned to the room and began to cultivate.
There is a large amount of solid spirit pill in his hand, and under the willingness to squander, the effect on cultivation is definitely twice the result with half the effort, and the improvement is very fast.
"The solid spirit pill in my hand is enough for three months of cultivation, so I am not in a hurry in alchemy. "Zhou Li doesn't want to make any more money by refining pills, just enough money, it's useless if you have more, cultivation is the key.
After staying in Mustard City for half a month, Zhou Li almost didn't go out of the door, so he stayed in the backyard to cultivate.
Only Mingyue and Su Xin are qualified to come in the backyard, and everyone else stays in the front yard.
"Whew"
In the past half a month, Zhou Li has been pushing hard with the Solid Spirit Pill, and he has directly improved a small realm, from the early stage of the second order of the Venerable to the middle stage, which can be regarded as a terrifying cultivation speed. From this point, we can see the perversion of the "Heavenly Heart and Earth Law".
In terms of combat skills, Zhou Li has not trained much, and has the skills of thieves, so he can treat these skills as combat skills.
Cultivating alone is not Zhou Li's style.
After thinking about it for a while, in Mustard City, I also have some friends, and I haven't seen them for nearly two or three months, Luo Hua and they are all people who are worthy of deep friendship, and they can be regarded as Zhou Li's friends.
After instructing them for a month, Zhou Li stomped his feet directly from the backyard, and the people were already rising to the sky.
Luo Hua belongs to the Luo family, which can only be said to be a small family, and it is inconspicuous in Mustard City.
Fortunately, with the exact address, it is not difficult to find the Luo family.
Small family, but the location of the Luo family is good, on the edge of the central area of Mustard City, covering an area of dozens of acres, and the buildings are undulating.
Of course, you can't just fall into someone's yard, this is equivalent to trespassing and provocation, and it is an act of revenge.
Therefore, Zhou Li had this road called Kasai Road early on, and asked about Luo Hua's gate, which was to visit.
"Looking for Luo Hua?"
Don't look at the Luo family as a small family, but there are still factions, and there is a specially registered steward for this visit. Hearing that Zhou Li came to Luo Hua, he didn't feel strange that Zhou Li's second-order strength was a lot of strength when he grabbed it outside, and he was not a great character.
"Yes, the trouble depends on Brother Luo Hua, and he said that Zhou Li is visiting. Zhou Li nodded.
"Just wait. "When the steward heard that it was surnamed Zhou, he hadn't even heard it in Floating Mustard City, so it was estimated that he was just a scattered person with a slight cultivation talent, so he naturally brought some arrogance.
Zhou Li didn't care, just waited by the gate.
It is said that it is a small family, but when it comes to it, if such a family is placed in a small world, it will definitely become a first-class super family. Just one Sage-level cultivator pulled out by the Luo family was enough to sweep through many families and sects in the small world.
It's just such a small family, not to mention the Nine Nether Realm, even in Floating Mustard City, and it's just a character who doesn't enter the stream.
After standing for a short time, Luo Hua rushed out.
"Ah, it's really Zhou Li. ”
When he saw that it was Zhou Li, Luo Hua was also excited, he hadn't seen him for a few months, and he once thought that Zhou Li was no longer in Mustard City. This world is full of crises, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be danger, and how many people who were still seeing them a few days ago died a few days later.
There are some who never return, and no one knows whether they are alive or dead.
The world is huge, and people are like a grain of sand in the sea, insignificant.
Zhou Li also laughed, it was always a happy thing to be able to see Luo Hua or be fine.
In the Luo family, there are also occasional children who come out, and they all take a look at Luo Hua and Zhou Li, and they leave. From this point of view, Luo Hua's status in the Luo family is just an ordinary family child, and he should not be a descendant.
However, these things are not something that Zhou Li can manage.
The small family, even if he arrived in the Nine Nether Realm, Zhou Li didn't take it to heart.
"Hahahaha, Luo Hua, call Qin Zijian and them, let's go have a drink. Zhou Li said, when old friends get together, naturally there is no better place to go than going to a wine shop.
Luo Hua nodded hurriedly, but suddenly, his face changed, and he said with a little panic: "Zhou Li, this time there is trouble." ”
"What's wrong?"
"Zhou Li, do you remember Tang Suyuan?"
Of course, Zhou Li still remembers the incident a few months ago, it was when he and Luo Hua first met.
Hearing Luo Hua talk about Tang Suyuan, where did Zhou Li not understand what the trouble Luo Hua was talking about?
"Tang Suyuan?" Zhou Li frowned, but then laughed out loud, and there was no fear or nervousness on his face at all.
Luo Hua showed a convincing look and said, "Yes, it's Tang Suyuan, why did we put up with him last time?" It's because he has an older brother." Just ten days ago, Tang Suyuan's brother came back, and in his capacity, it was not surprising to hear some clues. What's more, the other party is an inner disciple of the Xuanxue Sect, as long as he thinks it is, it is, and there is no reason at all. ”
Xuanxue Sect, Zhou Li didn't know it before, but now he knows, that is, a second-rate sect.
An inner disciple of the Xuanxue Sect is so arrogant?
Zhou Li shook his head, but he didn't pay attention to this Xuanxue Sect disciple, and said: "These things, don't worry about them for now, call Qin Zijian and them, and we will gather together."
"But this Tang Baijie ......" Luo Hua didn't feel a trace of nervousness when he saw Zhou Li, and he couldn't believe it.
"This matter should always be known to Qin Zijian and them, just ask them to come out and discuss it together. Zhou Li could only say so, otherwise, with Luo Hua's current attitude, he would definitely keep this thing in mind.
There is nothing for himself, but Luo Hua and the others are the same, this is equivalent to causing trouble in the family and will be punished by the family.
Luo Hua thought about it for a while, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, Zhou Li, you will go to the Xinghe Restaurant in front of you and wait, and I will call them over." After saying that, he just twisted and ran, and until now, he hadn't noticed Zhou Li's current cultivation. I640
