His gaze swept over the two things on the table, and Xu Mo's gaze fell on Xu Rong's face again.

Xu Rong's choice was really a bit unexpected by him.

Xu Mo glanced at Xu Rong deeply: "This is the foundation of your family, do you know what you are doing now?" ”

As long as the position of jailer is still there, Xu Rong's vein will be able to have an iron rice bowl in the future.

There is also a land deed, which is the source of income for ordinary people.

Twenty acres of land, even if you don't plant it yourself and rent it to others, you can have a harvest of seventy or eighty taels of silver every year.

Of course, this is when the grain harvest is still good, and the price of grain is now relatively high due to the unrest in various places.

Xu Rong nodded: "I know very well." ”

Before Xu Mo came to the door, he could only temporarily let Xu Yuan and the others stop and watch, but after a while, if Xu Mo had no other movements, then they would definitely pounce on them like vicious dogs.

Therefore, Xu Rong made the current decision after weighing it.

In exchange for Xu Mo's protection, and in exchange for some cultivation resources, the position of the jailer and the field deed were exchanged.

If he can make use of these resources, the martial arts will go further, and these things will be at his fingertips in the future.

Instead of cheapening those vicious dogs, it is better to use them to improve yourself.

If possible, he wants to sell the title deed and get a new house in the inner city.

Not to mention that the environment is better, the inner city is patrolled by officials every day, and it is also safer.

In addition, the position of this jailer is watched by many people.

Not only the people of the Xu clan, but even some people in the yamen are also quite hot.

Just like Chen Xiaoer, if he can become a jailer, he definitely doesn't want to be an ordinary servant.

Now this thing is a hot potato, throw it to Xu Mo, he will definitely be able to eat it.

And he promised to be able to reap the benefits.

It's the best of both worlds, so to speak.

Xu Mo pondered for a moment, and then understood the plan of the young man in front of him.

He didn't know if it was to allow his own thoughts, or if it was arranged by the old man in the family.

However, as the patriarch of the Xu clan, it was naturally impossible for him to accept these two things plainly.

"Steward Liu, you go to the treasury and take eight hundred taels of silver for Xu Rong, and warn the others at the same time."

Steward Liu hurriedly responded, "Yes, sir." ”

Xu Rong also followed and said, "Thank you, uncle." ”

He knew that Xu Mo had seen his intentions, although he had exchanged the position of the jailer and the field deed, but he was also quite grateful in his heart.

An acre of fertile land is only the price of more than ten taels of silver, and even if the price of grain rises now, it will be about twenty taels at most.

In other words, the twenty acres of land are no more than four hundred taels of silver.

As for the position of the jailer, Xu Rong gave it to him from the beginning, and he didn't expect Xu Mo to give money.

After all, if people bless you, you have to reap some benefits, right?

Eight hundred taels of silver, that is definitely quite a good care for him.

Xu Mo waved his hand, and then said: "Xie doesn't have to, this is what you deserve, as for some things in the clan, I am not very easy to interfere." ”

"There are many people, there are many ideas, everyone has to take care of their own interests, if you have to intervene, then people don't care whether you are the patriarch or not."

"Boy understands."

At this time, this is obviously not very convincing, but people have explained it to you, you don't go down this ladder, and you still expect people to cover you in the future?

Some things can be done on the surface.

After getting the huge sum of eight hundred taels, the two chatted for a while, and Xu Rong said goodbye and left.

"This kid is quite interesting."

Xu Mo took a sip of the tea bowl and made an evaluation.

Steward Liu on the side also bowed slightly: "It is not easy to know how to advance and retreat so much at this age." ”

Xu Mo put down the tea bowl and said faintly: "If this kid can grow up in the future, maybe I will have to rely on him." ”

Steward Liu stood aside and did not speak.

This probability is really a bit small, and the further the martial arts go behind, the greater the cost.

For example, in the process of exchanging blood, the medicinal materials required vary according to the methods of each family, but a pair of medicines is at least fifty or sixty taels of silver.

To complete the whole process of exchange transfusion, it takes about ten pairs of medicines, which is five or six hundred taels.

What's more, Xu Rong is obviously a lot away from blood exchange, and this process doesn't cost money? Not to mention that there are other expenses.

After losing the income from the land, even if Xu Rong has a good talent, relying on the little bit of money that catches fast, his cultivation speed will be greatly slowed down.

If it weren't for the current situation of the Xu Rong family, Steward Liu would definitely scold him for being short-sighted.

As for wanting to be big?

At least the Blood Furnace Realm will be obtained, and Xu Rong may not be able to achieve it in this life.

……

After Xu Rong left the Xu Mansion, he let out a long breath.

In a short period of time, he doesn't have to worry about external troubles.

During this time, he can be used to improve himself.

Back at home, Xu Rong told the old man what he had just done.

The old man was silent for a while, and then said, "It's hard for you, but now there is really no way." ”

Even though the old man attached great importance to the field, he also knew that Xu Rong's approach was not wrong.

"Master, I want to use this money to buy a house in the inner city, many people are dead in this outer city now, and it is becoming more and more dangerous, I can't rest assured that you can't get rid of you."

Xu Rong said solemnly.

He has to go to the yamen on an errand during the day, and the old man is at home alone, if there is any danger, then ......

Xu Rong was a little worried in his heart.

The old man raised his head and said earnestly: "Ah Rong, I don't have a few years to live, it doesn't matter where I am, there is no need to waste this money." ”

Seeing that Xu Rong seemed to be about to refute, the old man stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Now the world is getting more and more chaotic, strength is the first, you don't use the silver to buy a house, it is better to use it to improve yourself."

"Martial arts is the most expensive thing, and before for your third uncle to practice martial arts, the family barely saved much silver every year."

The money from the fields, plus Xu Ying's money, has more than 200 taels of silver a year, which is enough for ordinary families to spend more than ten years.

But it is a bit reluctant to support a Xu Ying to practice martial arts.

Later, another Xu Rong was added, and it was even more so.

Xu Rong was silent, he knew that the old man had been hit hard by the death of the third uncle, if it weren't for him, the old man probably wouldn't have much desire to live.

Sure enough, the money is still not enough, so we still have to find a way to make money. ’

Xu Rong sighed in his heart, and comforted him: "Master, don't worry, with my talent, it won't be long before I can exchange blood, and when the time comes, maybe I will be able to achieve the Blood Furnace Realm, and I will be able to walk sideways in this Cangqing City." ”

"Haha...... Then I'll wait for that day to come early, old man, and I can enjoy the blessings with you. ”
