Volume 1 The Far West 34, Money!
The five-rank master can already be regarded as a master of the sky in this eastern frontier, and this usually weak tribe suddenly pops up three or four five-rank, even if the mysterious force is difficult to deal with for a while.
Therefore, this time the tribe won, in the past hundred years, or nearly twenty years, the Moon Palace or the mysterious force finally ushered in a real victory, the tribe was rare to get rid of the depression temporarily, and then the morale became high, in any case, this battle brought a little peace to the tribe.
And Chen Jianhur and Bai Jiao's hearts were even heavier, the content of the codex was like a big stone pressing on the hearts of the two, the enemy was just temporarily retreating, with the style of that mysterious force, it was definitely impossible to give up, and the time of the next comeback was not yet known.
As the codex says, the tribe has fled for hundreds of years and has not been able to escape from the palm of the mysterious force, just like a doll, being dragged and played, and has been reduced from a tribe of millions of people to less than 10,000 now.
There has never been a definite answer to the question of where such a powerful and unpredictable force is sacred. Over the years, it has been natural that many of the oppressed and suffocated tribes will intend to surrender, and there are countless who have actually put them into action. But what the Codex describes is very certain is that no good will come out of the tribesmen who surrender to that mysterious power.
Fortunately, there are still many people in the tribe who are extremely intelligent, and they have sown seeds again and again, even if most of these seeds have been cut off from the tribe, but in the end it is better than nothing.
A few days passed, and Bai Jiao finally got rid of Lin Shuyun's entanglement and moved back to her former house. Lin Shuyun also lost her temper about this, and was sent away by Bai Jiao with a tiger.
For Chen Jianhur and Bai Jiao's lonely men and widows living in the same courtyard, there was surprisingly no objection. The old-fashioned white skull also laughed twice, and it passed.
With the support of Blood Zhilian, although the number of masters of the older generation of the current tribe is still limited, the level is steadily on a higher level, and without the intervention of other forces, they have the ability to crush the Moon Palace.
At present, the biggest problem is that there is a fault line in the new generation of masters, and the reason for this problem, in addition to being suppressed by other forces for a long time, is that the other reason is: poverty!
Most of the people of the tribe are trapped by their livelihoods, and it is already a very rare life to be able to live in peace and stability without worrying about food and clothing, and how can they have the spare strength to let the labor force learn martial arts? Most of the young men, learning some basics, go to work to take care of their families and support their families, as for the entry of martial arts, they still have to be able to support themselves before worrying.
Chen Jian hurriedly saw the current situation of the people of the Golden Snake tribe, and finally understood how prosperous and superior the Chen family land was in the past.
He hasn't been here for a long time, and Chen Jianqian doesn't have much sense of belonging to this poor tribe, but he can't bear to leave so silently for Bai Jiao.
"Money!" "Money!" In addition to practicing martial arts, raising cats and training snakes, Bai Jiao muttered the most about where to get money.
"I have some money here!" Chen Jian hurriedly didn't know how useful his money was, anyway, he couldn't spend it in his pocket for a while, and when he heard Bai Jiao muttering that he had no money to spend, he took out the two purple cards!
"Oh, who sold stones last time?" Bai Jiao's eyes suddenly widened, "How much did you sell them?"
"Six thousand gold yuan, and there is still 10,000 yuan given by Bai Ruyu"
"Ah, so much money, give it to me!" It's hard to make money, but it's really fast to spend, and after two sentences, the stunned Chen Jian hurriedly became a poor egg again.
And Bai Jiao was immersed in the joy of making a fortune, since those stones were really jade, no matter whether the value was high or low, they could always solve some urgent needs. There is also the blood Zhilian lotus seed, Lin Shuyun said that it can be sold for 100,000 gold yuan a piece.
Among the tribes, those who know that Bai Jiao has this lotus seed currently have Bai Yin and Lin Shuyun, and they also think that there is only one left. If the two of them knew that Bai Jiao could use this thing as melon seeds to eat, they would faint in fright.
Over the years, I have understood the truth of my sin. A few people who knew very well didn't say anything, and they didn't even say a word about the white skull. After all, Bai Zhihua can quietly break into the fifth grade, and Bai Yin, who is not bad, is also a matter of course.
Bai San knocked on the door and came in, "Miss, Mo Ruyun, the City Lord of Mo wants to see Mr. Ma Qiao." This kind of report sounds a bit problematic, but who let Bai Jiao be the owner of this house.
"Ah, what is he looking for me?" Chen Jian hurriedly was a little worried, could it be that there was something wrong with the pill and he came to trouble himself, right?
Regarding the detention of Bai Zhihua, although Bai Skull had some opinions on Mo Ruyun, he stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person, and when people came to the door, they could only call a few elders to come over to accompany him.
Although Bai Zhihua didn't know how to hold grudges, he was reluctant to pay attention to this kind of person who harmed others and benefited himself, and when he saw that it was Mo Ruyun who came, he snorted coldly and turned around and left, making the old face of the Eastern Boundary City Lord slightly red. Although the Eastern Boundary City is a small town that does not enter the stream, it is a city lord anyway, and his face is really uncomfortable, but he is in the first place, and he can't find any reason for this Bai Zhihua.
There is also a woman who came with Mo Ruyun, who is the same age as Lin Shuyun, and is Mo Ruyun's only daughter Mo Qingxia. This Mo Qingxia is gentle and elegant, dignified in appearance, and has a beautiful temperament.
The door of the patriarch's hall was not closed, only the slight sound of footsteps was heard, and Chen Jian hurriedly followed behind Bai Jiao and walked in a little unnaturally.
Bai Jiao was always indifferent and unreasonable in front of these elders, and Chen Jian was probably a little nervous, but he didn't take the initiative to say hello.
Although the news leaked because of the traitor, the white skull who was secretly escorted still used himself as bait to frantically cover the evacuation of the three white dragons, and finally led to being encircled and captured.
Bai Jiao, who knew the truth, was a little grateful to the old man Bai Skull, who sent Bai Mao away at the most critical moment, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. But gratitude is gratitude, and the attitude accumulated over the years cannot be reversed for the time being.
Bai Skull didn't have anything special about this, Bai Yin looked left and right when he saw this, and took the initiative to play a round for a rare time, "Young man, I have just experienced some twists and turns, and I haven't come back to my senses yet, and I still hope that the city lord is not strange." ”
Mo Ruyun only had the same attitude as Bai Zhihua, and was a little unhappy with what he did forward, but this time it was a junior, and Bai Zhihua gave some prelude, so it was easier to accept, and when the two of them sat down, he hurriedly arched his hand directly towards Chen Jian: "Ma Xiaoyou's panacea cured the little girl's internal injuries, and Mo Mou thanked Xiaoyou for saving his life." ”
Mo Qingxia also arched her hand in accordance with the etiquette of the rivers and lakes: "Little girl, Mo Qingxia, thank Gongzi for his kindness! Gongzi's magic medicine is really magical, if you need it in the future, please speak up." ”
Chen Jian, who was panicking in his heart, hurriedly returned the salute when he saw it, and he didn't know how to reply for a while.
Mo Ruyun immediately took out a purple card and said, "Mo doesn't have any treasures to take, but he has saved a lot of savings as this city lord." The grace of saving lives cannot be repaid. There are 100,000 gold dollars in this card, talk about your heart, and ask Ma Xiaoyou to smile!"
"One hundred thousand!" Chen Jian hurriedly couldn't help but shout, and the embarrassed Bai Jiao kicked him in the leg! "Ouch, what are you kicking me for?"
Mo Ruyun and Mo Qingxia both chuckled, both of them knew the allusion of Chen Jianhur selling jade for money, and they didn't care about Chen Jianqiu's hillbilly reaction.
"If you still have jade in the future, you can directly find Qingxia or the housekeeper in the house, our major chambers of commerce in Eastern Boundary City and Qizhou have business prospects, and the channels are much more reliable than ordinary jade shops!" Mo Ruyun was extremely optimistic about Chen Jianxuan's talent, and threw out all kinds of temptations in one breath, and even now let him marry his daughter without any hesitation.
"Okay, if I have a good stone, I'll sell it directly to you!" Chen Jian was young, and he had always spoken straightforwardly, and then asked: "If it is about four catties of top-grade ink jade, how much can it be sold?"
Mo Ruyun's face showed a confused look, but he didn't know anything about this. However, Mo Qingxia is actually very proficient in the business market: "There are different prices at different times, the current market, about four catties of the best ink jade, the price should be 9,000 ~ 10,000 gold yuan, and the jade store will generally leave more than 30% of the profit, and the purchase price is between 6,000 and 7,000." ”
"It seems that the price is a little low, but fortunately, it is not a pit, then Sister Qingxia, I will bother you if I have a stone in the future." Chen Jian hurriedly borrowed the donkey on the slope, and when his sister called out, he didn't blush at all.
This time I came to see this young genius, and to make friends with him, after listening to Mo Qingxia's surprise, but I also followed Chen Jian's hurried tone and responded to this sister: "Okay, how many do you have, my sister will not refuse."
Bai Jiao was a little unhappy about Mo Qingxia's reaction, but when she thought of Chen Jianhuan's age, she felt a little funny, her heart moved slightly, and she said to a few seniors: "You old guys chatting, it's not interesting for us to listen, why don't I accompany Sister Qingxia out for a walk?"
Mo Qingxia originally came to see Ma Qiao, but when she heard Bai Jiao say this, her face was a little hesitant.
Bai Jiao couldn't see it, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Ma Qiao, there is a beautiful woman visiting, let's go out for a walk together?" This girl actually used a beautiful man's trick.
Chen Jianhur's rejection of Bai Jiao from the beginning had already turned into obedience, and he didn't doubt him, so he hurriedly agreed: "Okay!"
Seeing this, Mo Ruyun also chuckled and said, "It's a good thing for young people to move around more, Qingxia, go." ”
Mo Qingxia looked at Chen Jianhur, got up and walked out, but wondered in her heart: "Why is this Ma Qiao so obedient to Bai Jiao?"
was thinking about it, but heard someone suddenly ask: "Sister Qingxia, the kind of pill that Ma Qiao gave you last time, how much is the right pill?" But Bai Jiao's mind was clear, seeing that Mo Qingxia seemed to be very proficient in the business of Eastern Boundary City, and looked at Chen Jian hurriedly with the pseudonym Ma Qiao, and took the opportunity to do some pill business.
At first glance, Mo Qingxia was a little unsure of what this meant, Ma Qiao's pill, Bai Jiao came to inquire about the price, and after thinking about it carefully, she responded: "According to the efficacy, the value of this pill is far better than Juyuan Dan, and the price of Juyuan Dan is three thousand gold yuan a piece." In fact, the price of the red pill is not important, and when it comes to saving lives, how many gold dollars are willing to pay. But if it's really priced, I think it's okay to have 100,000 gold yuan, and that's not counting its effect on internal force. ”
Then he cautiously asked Ma Qiao, "Brother Ma Qiao, isn't that pill still mass-produced?"
Bai Jiao was slightly embarrassed, this was obviously her hot face sticking to the cold ass of a beautiful woman, and everyone wanted to climb Ma Qiao's younger brother at all.
Chen Jianhur didn't know much about the thoughts between this woman, and when he saw Mo Qingxia asking himself, he didn't know what to say, so he thought for a while before answering: "This, I have to ask her!" Pointing at Bai Jiao, he stopped talking.
