Chapter 3 With Six Thousand Gold Coins

In the evening, the whole family gathered around the dining table to eat, and Qin Buqun, who was sitting on the main seat, told everyone about it with a smile, and touched Qin Lan's head very happily, "You must help him make a beautiful staff with your heart, Dad's promotion depends on you."

"Five thousand gold coins. Qin Lan's eyes rolled upward.

"What ......"

"The processing fee is five thousand gold coins, you tell him that this is the discounted price he promised to help you advance to the event, otherwise you don't have to talk about it. Qin Lan sighed, will this father do business. "If you can't talk, then take me to see him next time. ”

"Smack...... The spoon in Cha Hongying's hand fell on the table all of a sudden, five thousand gold coins? She has never earned five gold coins in her life...... As for Qin Buqun, his face was already flushed, "Lan'er, do you know what you're talking about? Your father's salary and I are only three gold coins a month, you say...... Is 5,000 a silver coin?"

"......" Qin Lan stood up directly and wiped her mouth, "I'm full, so be it, next time you see him again, take me over......"

"Good ......"

The Ministry of Officials is the organ of the management officials, and the system of selecting the rank of the officer, the method of examining the dethronement of the class, the code of awarding the policy and reward, and the law of determining the final system. There are four divisions under the Ministry of Officials: the Department of Selecting and Clearing Officials, the Department of Seal Inspection, the Department of Auditing and the Department of Examination and Merit. The selection of the rank and listing of the officials in charge of the examination, the examination, the selection, the promotion, and the monthly selection. The sealing department is in charge of knighthood, secular office, grace, difficulty, please seal, donate and other affairs. The officials in charge of the audit department are in charge of the system, and they are maintained for life, and handle the succession, naturalization, and reinstatement of the name and surname of the officials. The disposition and discussion of the official in charge of the examination department, the handling of the Beijing inspection, and the general plan.

And this big man is Zuo Shilang, who is in charge of the Imperial Officials' Department, and belongs to the third-grade officials, compared with the sixth-grade officials like Qin Buqun, there is no doubt that there is one heaven and one earth. This kind of character has always only been given gifts by others, and taking the initiative to pay for things is actually more of a threat and posture...... Therefore, the upper limit for the first time was only a thousand gold coins. But he wouldn't know that the magician's top-level staff was actually tens of thousands.

It's just that there are no top-level magicians in the Xinglan Empire, so there are no good magic wands circulating in the market, just his daughter's magic staff was bought by someone after he spent more than 3,000 gold coins, and for a small official of the Ministry of Rites, it was already very face-saving for him to get 1,000 gold coins.

A good magic wand is difficult to buy, but good materials are not difficult, whether it is a high-grade gem or even a magic crystal, or the most suitable for making a magic wand, the Aiqimo anti-locust wood, in the Xinglan Empire, which is closest to the elves and orcs, it is a very ordinary commodity, the only thing lacking here is the top production talent, because it is too remote here, even the dwarves who come to human society will definitely not stay here.

That's why this big official didn't let Qin Buqun buy materials at all, in a word, he couldn't trust Qin Buqun. Of course, the more high-end the staff materials are for my precious daughter, the better, of course I am willing to do it, but are you willing to do it? If you buy a bunch of rotten goods and make them shoddy, and finally the staff is finished, I can't change the materials even if I want to

Three days later, the big man sent a carriage, and his butler said a lot of things very graciously, and expressed his master's wishes very tactfully, inviting Qin Buqun and his son to go with him...... Obviously, this senior official didn't believe Qin Buqun's words, and planned to see the son in his mouth with his own eyes.

When Qin Lan was called out, she beckoned to Qin Qing who was standing in the hall, "Eldest sister, since it's your classmate, you can also come with us......"

......

After the housekeeper knew that Qin Qing was his eldest lady's classmate, he didn't stop him, anyway, one child is bringing, and two children are also brought, what does it matter...... However, in the carriage, Qin Qing had been very nervous, she was holding Qin Lan's hand tightly, and even Qin Lan could feel that she was shaking all over. So Qin Lan smiled, and then suddenly reached out and hugged the eldest sister's waist from behind, "Eldest sister, take it easy, it's okay...... She's just your classmate, what you usually do to her, how to treat her later, how to treat her when she goes down......"

"......" The two adults looked at each other speechlessly, what could they say, the matter of superiority and humility is still a little early for the children...... Qin Buqun naturally didn't have Qin Lan's hand, but Qin Qing was suddenly taken aback, this action was a bit too intimate...... However, she turned her head to look at her younger brother, but saw Qin Lan smiling innocently at herself, she could only guess that she was too careful, anyway, the two were sisters and brothers, and she didn't pay too much attention to it, so she let Qin Lan walk all the way with her waist around her.

From the mouth of the eldest sister Qin Qing, Qin Lan knew that this big man's surname was Xia, because her classmate's name was Xia Wen, and she was a very delicate person...... This is also natural, it is normal to have a strong old man and an only child, and it is normal to be coquettish, as long as it is not arrogant.

All in the imperial capital, that is, after a twenty-minute carriage ride, everyone arrived at the Xia Mansion and walked through the spacious front yard to the hall.

Sure enough, as Qin Lan expected, there were some materials piled up on the table beside Lord Xia, all of which were top-notch, and Qin Lan even saw an extremely rare amount of pure gold, the size of a thumb.

"Lord Qin, is this your Ling Lang?" Looking at Qin Lan, who was only twelve years old, Lord Xia's face obviously felt that he had been fooled, he frowned, and then looked at an old man with a white beard beside him, "Lord Shi, ...... you look?"

Yes...... Qin Buqun thought he was a little familiar before, but he never expected that he was the former Master of the Ministry of Industry, and immediately hurriedly stepped forward to salute, although Lord Shi had retired, but his son was still in power, and there were several disciples who held heavy power in the hands of the imperial court, so this old man still had a great say in the circle of the imperial capital.

"Hehe, the old man was just invited to come for tea...... Lord Xia didn't ask me. "Master Shi obviously can't deny this.

"So...... Lord Qin, I don't know if Ling Lang brought the staff he made before, can you show it to Lord Shi for a look?" "Xia Shilang's purpose in inviting Master Shi is to use his experience to help identify Qin Qing's staff, if it is just good-looking...... He also prepared a set of materials.

"There is a belt, there is a belt...... Qing'er. Qin Buqun hurriedly bent down, in fact, until now, he didn't dare to sit down, and the two adults in front of him didn't mean to let him sit down, but as soon as Qin Lan came in, he pulled Qin Qing to sit next to him, although Qin Buqun glared at the two of them a few times, but Qin Lan just didn't see it, and of course the two adults would not be like children......

Master Shi's original noncommittal attitude completely changed after seeing Qin Qing take out the staff, and after taking the staff with his own hands, he kept being amazed, "I didn't expect that I could also see the works of the dwarf master in my Xinglan Empire, it's amazing...... This is definitely from the hand of the cave dwarf master on the west side of the Moyun Mountains, it's just strange...... The leaves are clearly carved with magical power, and this fine control and extreme artistic tension seems to have come from the craftsmen of the elves......"

Seeing that Master Shi talked a lot to himself, Lord Xia didn't understand it at all, he just knew that this staff might be very bad

"Master Shi, you mean, this staff is very good. ”

"What are you talking about???" Lord Shi suddenly stood up and glared at him, and he was furious, "You are simply defiling this staff...... Do you know what the price would be if such a masterpiece were to be auctioned?"

“......”

"You take a closer look at it...... Such a completely pure and flawless ruby, where can you find it?With just one thing, you can buy your entire mansion" Lord Shi saw that Xia Shilang was taken aback, so he eased his face a little, and then showed an admiring look on the staff in his hand again, " And the Mithril leaves on the head of the staff, do you think they are really leaves, wrong they are actually formations written in the form of magic runes, which can greatly increase the user's spell ability, and the material used to make the handle of this staff is definitely not an ordinary item, when I hold it, I seem to have a feeling...... It was as if the mind had calmed down for a moment. ”

"......" Qin Lan laughed, it seems that there are really people who know the goods here.

"This kind of work is absolutely rare in the world. Master Shi finally sighed, "The staff made by the elf clan and the dwarf master together, there is only one that has been handed down since ancient times, although I haven't really seen it, but I have seen the picture record, it is the special staff of the elf queen, of course, it is much stronger than this staff, but it will definitely not fall into the hands of humans...... So the value of this staff, I can't estimate right now, and if you can, can you tell me where you got it?"

Qin Buqun was stunned, Xia Shihan was stunned, and Qin Qing was also stunned, they didn't know that this rod could be so evaluated by this Master Shi, and it took a long time for Qin Buqun to speak in disbelief, "Master Shi, this rod is a private graffiti work of the dog." ”

"Fart" Master Shi obviously has a more upright personality, he immediately blew his beard and glared, "I said it very clearly, this is obviously a masterpiece made by the cooperation of the dwarf master and the elf craftsman, and your bullshit son also wants to make such a thing?

"Ahem......" Qin Lan had to speak, "Don't be too excited, this old man, Lord Qin's bullshit son is here now......"

"Who? who is it?" Master Shi was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look, "In this hall, there are only Xia Shihan, Qin Buqun, the housekeeper of the Xia family, and a few maids, and then the rest is himself, as well as Qin Lan and Qin Qing.

"I'm sorry, that bullshit son you said Lord Qin is none other than Young Master I. Qin Lan nodded nonchalantly, "Although I am very happy that the things I made casually can be praised by you so highly, it is obvious that you are wrong." ”

"Bastard, you dare to say that I am wrong, how can I be wrong......" Master Shi suddenly burst into a rage, the most unacceptable thing for him was that others could not accept his opinion.

"I mean, the Elven Queen Miphilua you just said has a touch of life in her hand that is stronger than my staff...... Completely wrong. ”

"......" everyone was stunned for a moment. How do you know the name of the Elven Queen, and the name of the staff in her hand is Lifetouch?

"That touch of life is completely a branch of the tree of life, the dwarves use a special way to make its vitality will not be broken, so it is still a living thing, this is the true meaning of the touch of life, its ability is actually not strong, the reason why it is famous is because it is the staff of the elf queen, representing the authority of the elf race. ”

"You're farting, the stick I saw, it is clear that the branch only occupies a small part, and most of the bottom is ......" Master Shi actually began to argue with Qin Lan, at this time he was dancing with his hands, just like a child who was angry.

"Those magic circles are the existence that sustains life......" Qin Lan gradually refuted Lord Shi's words one by one, he had seen the magic staff in Miphilua's hand with his own eyes, and he had been taught magic by her for a period of time, how could he not be clear? So, what could Master Shi say about him......

In the end, Master Shi was said to have a red face and a thick neck, so he could only stubbornly hold his head, "Hey, you little guy can know so much, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice in my life......"

"Hey...... Grandpa, even if you don't have knowledge, won't you read more books?" Qin Lan rolled her eyes......

"......" Master Shi was suddenly defeated, his face was even redder than the pork liver that had been put on for three days, he put down the magic wand in his hand without a sound, and then turned around and left directly, not even paying attention to Xia Shilang's greeting, and walked away without looking back.

"Lan'er, how are you ...... How can you be so presumptuous...... He ......" Qin Buqun finally sobered up from Qin Lan's performance.

"Where do I know who he is? I'm just talking about it. Qin Lan smiled and reached out to hug Qin Qing's waist, who was already completely sluggish beside her, and then lay down comfortably behind her, and raised Erlang's legs, "So, what do we say? It's so late, isn't it time to go home? Children should go to bed early and get up early......"

"This ...... Little master. "Maybe it's because Qin Lan's performance is so unusual, Master Shi was ashamed to run away from him, Xia Shihan no longer dared to underestimate Qin Lan, and since Lord Shi gave such a high evaluation of that staff, I think he is indeed level, but at this age...... "I have prepared all the materials here, you can see if they are complete, if it is not enough, just speak...... If you could help me make a staff similar to the one you have now, I'd be grateful. ”

Qin Lan didn't get up either, just swept the materials on the table with his eyes. "Adamantite gold is enough, Mithril still needs five taels, Aiqimo anti-locust wood is not bad, but it is better to have two more, the most important thing is this gem...... Don't you have a bigger one? Such a small gem, the quality is so poor, what kind of mana can be stored?"

"Yes...... Yes......" Xia Shihan nodded repeatedly, "Everything else is fine, but little master, this gem is already the best quality I have purchased in the market." ”

"That's right...... Then forget it, for the sake of you being the father of my eldest sister's classmate, I will reluctantly help you make one......" Qin Lan nodded, "But I won't admit that it is my work, and for this time, the processing fee is a total of six thousand gold coins, thank you for your patronage, please pay ...... first"

"Ah...... Good...... Be...... What?six thousand?" Xia Shihan was nodding in a row, but he was choked by Qin Lan's sudden words, six thousand, six thousand gold coins, what are you robbing the money?

"Do you want me......" Qin Lan stood up suddenly, then patted her ass lightly, and looked at Qin Buqun who was staying next to her, "Old man, let's go, I'm going to starve to death if I don't go home......"

“......”

Anyway, whether it was Qin Buqun or Qin Qing, it was the first time to see a different Qin Lan, especially Qin Qing, who had been hugged by Qin Lan since getting into the carriage, and he didn't know how he felt now...... Hey, am I your sister after all, why do you keep treating me as a ...... As......

"Lan'er, do you really know what you're doing?" Qin Buqun didn't suddenly speak until he was almost home, "I used to want to buy a magic wand for Qing'er, so I asked the price, even the most expensive staff only costs two thousand gold coins, and at the top, since you did it yourself, how can you ask for such an expensive price......"

"That's why you don't understand anything...... Forget it, you don't have to worry about it. Qin Lan twisted her head.

"Hey, did you talk to your dad like this? Why didn't I show you like this before?" Qin Buqun suddenly reacted, "You are very rude today, how can you sit in an improper posture and cross your legs when you are a guest at someone else......'s house?"

"Oh, old man......" Qin Lan plucked her ears, "This is talking about business, do you know what it means to talk about business?"

"Talking about business, you're talking about ghosts...... The price is six thousand, and the fool is looking for you, or do you know how much the six thousand gold coins are if you come up with the materials yourself?" Qin Buqun was already a little roaring, because today's cognition made him very helpless, it turned out that the life he had always been satisfied with was so lowly.

"Huh...... You love me. Qin Lan just smiled casually.

......

Qin Buqun thought that this matter was really yellow so far, and his son not only offended Xia Shihan, but also offended Master Shi...... So he has completely given up the idea of promotion, and just wants to be a petty official, do his own thing, and take care of a few children in the family.

However, the evolution of the facts was completely unexpected, and the next morning, as soon as he arrived at the place where the Ministry of Rites usually worked, he received a message that Lord Shoshu of the Ministry of Rites wanted to see him.

Lord Shangshu wants to see himself? How could Lord Shangshu, who is high above, look down on himself as a little person? You must know that Shangshu is a positive third grade, which is equivalent to a provincial and ministerial-level existence.

Qin Buqun went to see Lord Shangshu with a nervous heart, and it wasn't until he walked out after the meeting that he still couldn't believe it, feeling that the whole world was floating ...... Master Shang Shu praised him for his conscientious work attitude in the past few years in a rather affirmative tone, and then said, the country needs talents like you, obviously, the burden on your body now is not enough."

What does this mean? No matter how stupid Qin Buqun is, he can understand that he is about to be promoted.

When he returned home in the evening, he was startled by the carriage at the door. Lord Xia had already come in person, and was talking to Qin Lan in the hall, and the most surprising thing was that he did not sit on the main seat, but sat next to him.

On the table in the hall was a brocade box containing the materials that had been prepared long ago, and at the top was a ticket for six thousand gold coins......

Qin Buqun almost fainted at this moment.

Yesterday he was still saying that only a fool would find ...... Now that he really came and sent Xia Shihan away, Qin Buqun was still holding the six thousand gold coins ticket, is this true, isn't it a dream, six thousand gold coins, he has to work for 66 years......

What can you do with 6,000 gold coins?

Qin Lan stretched out his hand and took the money ticket from Qin Buqun's hand, turned around and shook his brows at Qin Qing and the others, "Tomorrow everyone will go shopping, you can buy whatever you want...... Fee I pack"

"yes" Qin Qing pounced on her brother again and hugged her brother, she had long envied the many things that her classmates had, but she didn't have the pocket money to buy them, but now she ...... At this moment, Qin Lan simply became the god of her eyes. Even the twin sisters Qin Zhi and Qin Ji were extremely happy, and they also pounced and laughed and screamed, constantly calling for what they wanted.

Facts have proved that Qin Buqun really doesn't know how to be an official.

Although the six thousand gold coins were very expensive, Xia Shihan obviously had other considerations, so he still sent the materials for Qin Lan to make, but this time it was not for his own beloved daughter Xia Wen, but for Master Shi's grandson, because he saw that Lord Shi obviously couldn't put down the staff that Qin Lan had made before......

Although the relationship between the Xia family and the Shi family is good, if it can go further, it is best to marry the grandson of the beloved daughter and the Shi family, which will undoubtedly have a great impetus for his career...... Isn't it 6,000 gold coins?

This point will be told to Qin Lan, not because Xia Shihan has no defense against Qin Lan, but because Qin Lan told him that he wants to see Xia Wen so that he can really tailor it...... So Xia Shihan had no choice but to tell Qin Lan that he actually made this staff to give to Shi Gongzi.

"Well...... I understand. Qin Lan immediately nodded, "Then you go and arrange a banquet, as long as you invite Shi Gongzi here, I will take a few sneak peeks at him." ”

......

It's that simple......

It's a pity that Qin Buqun doesn't understand at all, but this guy who doesn't understand is really promoted after three days, and he is promoted to two levels in a row, and he enjoys being a five-grade official, and Wang Zhiyuan, the former boss of the sixth-grade director, has now become his subordinate...
