"Young master, ask the housekeeper to say that he will repay the money, but how can we have the money to borrow him?"

She asked in a very low voice, as if the wall had ears.

"It's not all he borrowed."

Hong Fan picked up a piece of silver and shook it, and said with a smile.

"There are two and a half years of arrears here, and the rest is the congratulatory ceremony he gave me."

"Auntie, don't worry, the money that people took the initiative to send to the door, could it be that I blackmailed it?"

Hearing what the young master said, Aunt Liu felt very reasonable, and her heart was a little relieved.

"A few days ago, I went to visit the inverted courtyard, and I begged the housekeeper to hit it off with me."

Hong Fan put down the silver and made it up casually.

"This He Yi is a little heavier, but otherwise, it can't show his friendship with me."

"Yes, the young master is a talent, and he will definitely be of great use in the clan in the future, and he should ask the housekeeper to stammer."

When Aunt Liu heard this, she easily figured it out.

When she looked at her young master, she was naturally a princess selling melons, and felt that there was nothing in the sky and no earth.

By the glimmer of light outside the window, Hong Fan counted the silver twice and confirmed that it was two hundred taels—fifty taels more than he had requested.

This came as a slight surprise to him.

But with this extra fifty taels, Hong Fan will have a shortage in the future, and it is not good to use virtue again.

On the other side, Aunt Liu went to the old worries, and added new worries for a while.

How should this huge amount of money be spent?

For a full two hundred taels of silver, you can buy twenty-five acres of eight taels of upper fields in Jinhai City.

These fields are rented out, and one acre of land can collect two stone grain rents a year.

Together, there is an income of twenty-five taels a year in a good year, and there is always a small twenty-five taels in a bad year.

It's a fortune big enough to leave a family heirloom!

"This money is inconvenient to buy good fields in the southeast of the city......

Aunt Liu proposed halfway, but saw her young master waving her hand.

"Auntie, this money is because of martial arts, and it should also be returned to martial arts."

Hong Fan said, re-tying the unfolded blanket.

"The world is restless, and with martial arts in the body, it is more valuable than any silver and two fields."

Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then thought of the difference between the recent days and the past, and couldn't help nodding heavily.

······

May 11, noon.

Clothed in bright sunshine, Hong Fan carried a blanket full of all his net worth out of the Hong Mansion.

After turning a few blocks, he turned onto Chisha Avenue and stepped into the most prosperous trading area of Jinhai City.

Here, the shouts of vendors, the chatter of passers-by, and even the sound of the long wind blowing the banner are mixed together.

Walking down the street, it seems to be stepping on the pulse of ukiyo-e.

In the middle of Chisha Avenue, the city's largest high-end business "Jiaotong Hall" is located here.

This is also the destination of Hong Fan.

There are usually only two sources of martial arts resources, one is the heavenly and earthly treasures or the flesh and blood of alien beasts grown in the wild, and the other is the elixir cultivated from various precious medicinal materials according to the secret recipe.

For most low-level martial artists, these two are equally rare.

In Jinhai City, except for the Zhangwu Academy, only the three families of Hong Li Chi have their own unique secret recipes, and most of the elixirs they have cultivated are supplied to the clan.

Only a few shops with very good backgrounds can regularly put some martial arts resources on the shelves for sale.

Under the watchful eye of the guards at the door, Hong Fan calmly walked into the store.

The traffic hall is divided into three floors, with a single floor area of three or four hundred square meters.

The furnishings are all dark lacquered mahogany, and various samples are supported by gold silk.

As soon as Hong Fan's gaze swept, he saw more than ten guards stationed everywhere, and judging from the reaction, the leaders obviously had a breakthrough realm cultivation.

Behind the counter, several idle waitresses saw the guests coming in, and they all wanted to greet them - the light red martial arts uniform is generally only used as a regular dress by the children of the Hong family, and the appearance and demeanor of the person who came were extraordinarily outstanding.

In the end, the one with the obvious higher status forced the rest of the people back with his eyes and took the business.

The waitress welcomed Hong Fan to the side of the shop and sat down, first saluted respectfully, and served tea, and then stood and asked softly.

"Welcome to the traffic hall, the slave's name is Eming, what do you need?"

Hong Fan was not surprised by such a good service attitude, after all, anyone with a slight eye could see what was in his blanket.

"I want to ask for the purchase of some cultivation resources that can be used throughout the territory, with a budget of around two hundred taels, preferably at a moderate price."

He said directly.

Unlike other private channels, the business of Jiaotong Hall in Gimhae is known for being well-behaved.

"The slave and maid understand."

E Ming nodded, pondered for a moment, and then turned around and fetched seven wooden boxes.

The first box opened, and inside was a round and smooth black pill, with its own fragrance and excellent quality.

"Tuigong Pill, you don't need to introduce this."

Hong Fan nodded and said.

He turned his gaze to the second box, which contained a piece of ochre-colored incense, which smelled rich.

"Your Tuigong Pill can nourish the essence and qi, especially for impacting acupuncture points; And this blood-inducing incense is refined by the Li family, which can calm the spirit and activate the blood, which is a good match for the Tuigong Pill. ”

E Ming sat on the family roots of the guests, and became more and more pleasant.

"The third box is the Chi family's Qi Gathering Pill, its effect is slightly different, it can't increase the cultivation effect, but can replenish the depleted true qi in an instant."

She introduced the tooth-white elixir in the third box.

"With it, the daily practice time can be greatly extended, which is why it is the same thing."

Hong Fan nodded when he heard this, and immediately understood.

This is similar to the high-tech recovery techniques of the major Olympic teams in previous years, which allowed athletes to squeeze more rest time into training.

"What is in the fourth box is the jerky of the chiseled teeth of the alien beast, which can nourish a lot of blood and qi after eating, and it has an effect on the body and horizontal training."

"The Fifth Box......"

"Sixth ......"

"The Seventh ......"

After a while, E Ming introduced all the functions and prices of the seven resources, and there was nothing outrageously priced.

In fact, Jinhai City is located in a remote area, and it is difficult for high-level resources to flow here.

Hong Fan thanked him and thought silently in his heart.

The high-quality three-tael of the push-palace pill is one, and the ordinary two-tael.

Among them, the effect of the former can last for half a month, but considering the double energy consumption of the Dragon Soul Tree and the Sand World, this can only last for seven or eight days in Hongfan.

With his two hundred taels of silver, he could buy almost enough for five hundred days.

But what Hong Fan wants is not long-lasting, but efficiency.

Now that he is just entering the breakthrough realm, he can easily get so many items.

As long as the strength improves steadily, and after entering the Zhu Yi Ride, and opening up some paths, the money will only come faster.

"In this way, I will ask for twenty-four palace pushing pills, thirty pieces of blood-inducing incense, and twenty catties of chiseled dried meat."

Hong Fan said after calculating according to the list price.

These three resources can be used together to maximize efficiency, and the total price is exactly two hundred taels, which is enough for six months.

Just as E Ming finalized the list and went back to prepare the goods, a neat greeting came from the door of the traffic hall: "Miss." ”

Hong Fan followed the prestige and saw a young girl walking in accompanied by a maid.

This woman is wearing a water-cut green skirt and light makeup, and her appearance and posture are comparable to those of the star supermodels in her previous life.

However, what impressed Hong Fan the most was that she always raised her chin slightly when she walked, like a swan that had just been replaced with white feathers, revealing an arrogance that could not be concealed.

PS: The per mu yield data refers to the paper "Discussion on the Yield of Rice per Mu in the Taihu Lake Area during the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties", in which the average yield per mu of the Taihu Lake Basin in the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties is calculated: the yield per mu in the Tang Dynasty is 138 kg; The yield per mu in the Song Dynasty was 225 kg; The yield per mu in the Ming Dynasty was 333 kg

In the article, Dahua has martial arts black technology, and the average physical life span of the people has been gained, so although Jinhaicheng is a frontier, the average yield per mu of Shangtian is probably not too much to refer to the average mu yield data of Taihu Lake in the Song Dynasty?

Anyway, it's a setting, so don't delve into it.
