After saying goodbye to Kong Zhang, Wang Luo turned around and went back to Shifu.

The maroon courtyard door slowly closed behind him, and the small square outside the door had returned to its former tranquility, as if everything that had just happened was a dream.

But inside the courtyard gate, Shi Yue was already kneeling beside the shadow wall.

"Lord of the Mountain, I ......"

Wang Luo didn't wait for her to continue, he raised his hand and held it up with a soft True Yuan.

"In the past, the mountain protection family served Lingshan for ten thousand years, and it was never popular to bow down, so let's stand up straight and speak."

When Shi Yue stood up, he couldn't help but reach out and wipe his eyes, before he said with relief: "Thank you, Lord Mountain, the matter of the Jade Lord is not something I deliberately concealed......

"I understand."

Wang Luo had only been in Rongcheng for two days from Lingshan, as a relict of the old era, there were too many things he needed to learn and digest, and the Jade Lord of Shijie did not have to know important common sense for the first time. For Shi Yue, the title of Jade Lord has no glorious historical significance, let alone any practical value, and it is understandable that he has no time to mention it for a while.

Wang Luo's understanding made Shi Yue even more relieved, she groaned for a while, and began to give full play to her expertise as a part-time tour guide again.

The name of the Jade Lord of Stone Street comes from the three "jade talismans", and the jade talisman of Stone Street comes from the special history of this street.

Thousands of years ago, when the Founding Fathers restarted civilization in this wasteland and established the Rong City, they received great help from the locals represented by the Shi family, and it can be said that more than half of the Rong City was built on the ruins of the outer mountain gate. Therefore, Rongcheng also gave the Shi family a great privilege - autonomy.

At the beginning of the establishment of Rongcheng, "Stone Street" was a city within a city, and the Shi family was also the uncrowned king of the city.

However, thousands of years have passed, and with the fall of the Shi family, the autonomy that once covered half of the city has shrunk to the point that it can only cover this slum, and the word autonomy also exists in name only under the shroud of Qingpingsi's Xiaobailou. And the remaining power was even divided into three parts, shared by the three people who held the jade talisman.

But even so, the influence of the Jade Lord of Stone Street is still extraordinary, for the people of Stone Street who live at the bottom of the Stone, the Great Law, the Golden Deer Hall, and even the Little White Building, all seem too far away, and it is tradition that guides their daily behavior, and the spokesperson of tradition is the Jade Lord of Stone Street.

Holding a jade talisman will not enhance cultivation and accumulate wealth, but it can be respected and recognized by the people of Shijie, and the rules jointly set by the three jade masters are the laws that the people of Shijie must abide by. To put it simply, the Jade Lord is a typical clan elder.

Shi Yue, as the orthodox and only heir of the Shi family, happened to hold such a jade talisman. But with her current situation, it is obvious that she cannot exercise the power of the jade lord normally, and even the jade talisman was snatched back from the frenzied gambling dog Shi Xiusheng by others. Therefore, until she can truly stand on her own feet, the jade talisman is of no use to her.

Although the people of Shijie love and even respect Shi Yue, they obviously do not regard her as an elder and a venerable person.

Shi Yue thought that it would take him a long time to regain the prestige of the family that had been squandered by his father, and he held the jade talisman in a dignified manner, but the appearance of Wang Luo greatly accelerated the process.

"So, Lord Mountain, I really don't know how to thank you......"

Wang Luo said: "Strictly speaking, it should be me to thank you on behalf of Lingshan, the Shi family has not abandoned for thousands of years after the decline of Lingshan, and it is Lingshan who has failed you first." ”

"When you say that, it's even more embarrassing. After the catastrophe, the Shi family relied on the remnants of the old days, and in fact, they have been living well. Moreover, most of the Shi family did not plan to observe the festival for Lingshan, and in the past few hundred years, they have successively moved to other places with the divided family property. Later, the decline of the family into this way is actually because we are not angry......"

Wang Luo said: "Generally speaking, when a leader commends his subordinates, it is enough for the subordinates to resign once, and any more will be a loss of face." ”

“…… It was me who was wrong. After a pause, Shi Yue sighed with some loss, "Over the years, I have been trying hard to prove myself, but just two debt collectors made me powerless. ”

Wang Luo said: "They are professional. ”

Shi Yue said: "But the Mountain Lord is easy to handle. ”

"Because I'm more professional than them."

“……”

Wang Luo explained: "There are villains like mud in any era, my senior sister took me down the mountain many times to travel, and people who commit great treachery and evil are actually extremely rare, but this kind of 'Niu Er' is everywhere." And the senior sister handles it very beautifully every time. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Luo's mind was flooded with memories and emotions again.

Senior sister is really an incredible person, her usual behavior can be said to be the farthest example in the world from the four words of human affection and sophistication.

However, when traveling down the mountain and encountering mortal suffering, she can always behave exquisitely, not only to suppress people with force, but also to overcome rigidity with softness.

And then he is especially good at punishing villains.

For the Lingshan people who naturally live at the apex of Kyushu, human sophistication may be the last thing they need, but in the same way, for the Lingshan people, "considering whether they need it or not" is also the last thing they need.

Therefore, there are indeed Lingshan people who don't know anything about human affairs, but there are also some people who just deliberately pretend to know nothing......

If it was the senior sister to deal with the situation just now, I am afraid that it would be more skillful and tactful, such as letting the two black vests squirt out of her mouth.

His thoughts drifted for a moment, and he heard that Shi Yue had already changed the topic: "Lord Mountain, before Shi Xiusheng escaped, he borrowed millions of dollars in the neighborhoods of Stone Street, so if I want to repay the debt tomorrow morning, I have to contact the tooth man to sell the house as soon as possible......"

Wang Luo waved his hand: "Don't worry, tomorrow morning, not many people will really come to collect debts, and you don't need to sell the house." ”

Shi Yue said: "Well, most of the neighbors are very kind and have always taken good care of me, so it may not be that many people will come tomorrow morning." But I don't want to take advantage of their kindness like that......"

After a pause, Shi Yue said again: "As soon as Shi Xiusheng left, he has nothing to do with the Shi family, and I will not accept his subsequent debts." But before he left, every spirit leaf borrowed in the name of the Shi family, I had to pay it back no matter what. ”

"Good determination." Wang Luo nodded, admiring Shi Yue's temperament more and more, "It's just that in this way, it seems that I forced you to sell the house." ”

Shi Yue said: "No, Lord Mountain's words, on the contrary, let me let go of some entanglements that I shouldn't have. To be honest, at my current rate of making money, it is difficult to even keep up with the fluctuating interest rate of the bank, let alone pay off the debts of the neighbors...... And this small courtyard, in fact, has long been fancied, and the price is very good. ”

"But you sold the house, what should Zhao Xiuwen do?"

Shi Yue said: "I will explain to them, and that buyer has a friendship with the Shi family for several generations, I begged him to intercede, and I should be able to let Xiuwen and them live for another year or two." As for after that, there's nothing I can do about it. ”

Then, Shi Yue sighed and said, "I rented the house to Xiuwen, Sister Fan, and Uncle Qin, because I wanted to do my best to help those in need. But a person's kindness should not be greater than her ability, and it is not a kind of selfishness for me to be a good person while owing money to my neighbors? ”

"That's a good point." The more Wang Luo listened, the more he nodded.

This loyal and kind mountain protector is more and more liked by him, although his talent and qualifications are lacking, but his heart is enough to make up for it.

In the past, Wang Luo would definitely write a separate letter of recommendation to Shi Yue.

Historically, there is no shortage of people who have been exceptionally included in the mountains because of their outstanding hearts. As long as the qualifications are not too poor, with the natural resources and treasures of Lingshan, irrigation can also instill a qualified Lingshan person.

It's a pity that there are no natural treasures now, and Wang Luo's mountain master authority has only been restored, and there is no way to turn Shi Yue into a positive one.

There is only one thing that can be done.

"The debt problem is brought up by me, of course I will solve it, but it is only about a million, which is enough time for one day."

Shi Yue blinked, feeling that his hearing was a little out of order.

Wang Luo drew out a spirit talisman and summoned it to a business partner he had just befriended not long ago.

"Luo Xiao, I want to sell a few copies of the True Shadow Emperor, spot cash, today's transaction, can you arrange it?"

On the other side, in the Taixu Station, Luo Xiao, who was trying to get out of the pool freshly, was almost choked by his own saliva.

"Brother Wang Luo, do you want to sell cards? Or batch processing? Didn't you say before that your senior sister forbade you to use your good skills in gambling? ”

Wang Luo said calmly: "The premise is that there is no shortage of money, and when you are short of money, you can just don't kill people and set fires." ”

“…… Your teacher really highlights a bottom line and is flexible! Luo Xiao was also dumbfounded.

"My funding gap is one million, can you arrange it?"

"Of course you can, but if you're just trying to raise money quickly, it's not cost-effective to sell the True Shadow Emperor in bulk, the essence of the military general card is that it is rare and expensive, and it is easy to affect the market if there are more shipments, although Feihuan Lu is popular, but the market is not so big...... It's better to find a few more picture scrolls and spread out the fundraising. Luo Xiao said more and more excited, "I am responsible for this planning, as long as your good luck is as good as ever, brother, before today, I can definitely raise enough for you to raise one million!" Wait for me to contact the buyer first, let's see you later! ”

After retracting the spirit rune, Wang Luo saw a face that was so surprised that it was stunned.

"Lord Mountain, if I understand correctly...... Shi Yue said with some difficulty, "Can you really raise a million within today?" ”

Wang Luo thought for a while: "If it's not enough, it shouldn't be difficult to add hundreds of thousands." ”

"How?!" Shi Yue could barely maintain his senses, "You just got the Jianmu Seed today, right?!" What kind of business can make a million a day! Even if you go to the construction site in the middle of the summer to put a waterproof spell on the building, you can't earn two thousand spirit leaves a day! ”

"Draw the scroll on behalf of the drawing."

The girl's face was full of question marks: "What kind of smoking?" ”

Seeing that this girl who has just graduated from Mengxue for more than a year, but is only eighteen years old, is even more unable to keep up with the trend than Wang Luo, an old antique who is actually over a thousand years old.

"Substitute drawing, simply put, is to draw cards on behalf of others in the Taixu painting scroll......"

Shi Yue was even more surprised when he heard this, and there was a subconscious disgust in the surprise.

"Too vain to paint the scroll? Lord of the Mountain, you ...... How did you get on that thing? As she spoke, the girl's expression turned vigilant again, "There are a lot of deceptions, Shi Xiusheng was ...... back then Lord of the Mountain, you must have been deceived, it's still too late to find Tsing Yi now! ”

Before the words fell, the spirit rune in Wang Luo's hand glowed slightly, and Luo Xiaoxi's invincible roar came from it.

"Wang Luo, the buyer has been found! Absolute big customer, I showed the other party the picture of you giving Zhang Dian and them the True Shadow Emperor, and the other side was willing to spend 1.6 million to buy a Blood Demon Thirteen, and directly gave 100,000 in advance! ”

Then, Luo Xiao's voice was also a little nervous: "Brother, I haven't seen a few such fat customers in my twenty years in the industry, how are you doing now?" ”

Wang Luo smiled: "Excellent." ”

"Good! By the way, I have just transferred the advance payment to you, and I said that it was two or eight points, pay attention to check! ”

And almost at the same time, a small black and white sword broke through the air, paused in front of the Shifu Gate, and then the hilt of the sword reversed, gently pulling the courtyard door.

Wang Luo opened the door casually, only to see a green bamboo tied to the small sword, and after taking the green bamboo, the small sword broke through the air again.

That is the most efficient delivery in the city, Wanjian Guifeng, flying sword delivery, more than ten times faster than Shi Yue's part-time job Baichengtong and the like, of course, more than ten times more expensive.

And the green bamboo that was sent so solemnly is full of color and luster, and the whole body is crystal clear, and it can be seen that it is valuable without refining the spirit leaves.

Shi Yue wiped his eyes vigorously, and after confirming that it was not an illusion, he felt that the worldview of the whole person was like a bubble, and it began to slowly shatter.

"A lot of scams are to give small profits first, and then ......"

Wang Luo then handed Shi Yue a small profit worth 80,000 spirit leaves, and the light green bamboo weighed like 10,000 jun, so that she couldn't help leaning forward and her arms sinking.

The theory of deception is naturally even more unspeakable.

"I, I understand, the Lord of the Mountain is really powerful, millions of debts, actually a day, a day, a day ...... Alas, this is the gap between the Lingshan Mountain Lord and the down-and-out mountain guards. ”

Shi Yue smiled reluctantly, and said: "Of course, this debt is mine after all, there is no reason to let the mountain lord repay the debt for me, I will do everything to repay your money in the future." ”

Wang Luo said: "Okay, senior sister said that long-term debt is conducive to young people to maintain a fighting mentality, so I won't bother you to struggle." ”

“…… Thank you! ”

After saying thank you, there was a sound in Shi Yue's gray shoulder pocket.

The girl's expression perked up: "Baichengtong is coming to life over there!" You can have hundreds of spirit leaves in a day! Mountain Lord, let's come back in the evening and talk again! ”

Then he hurried out and fought for youth and interest.

Seeing off Shi Yue, Wang Luo walked back to the inner courtyard and stood under the housekeeper tree and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Something is not right, very wrong.

With Shi Yue's background, temperament, and luck, how could he fall to this point? It's just the old era of the impermanence of heaven, isn't there a great law of helpfulness in the new era? Why is it that such a high-quality talent is not favored by the Great Law?

Because the remnants of the old times are not considered human?
