"Wait! I can't ask for this money!"

Hearing Zhang Jing's shouting, Qiusheng and Wencai, who were collecting the money, made a pause, and then immediately glared at him, and kept moving.

A hundred taels of white flowers with silver, don't you?

What a joke!

Yes, yes!

Don't be a silly fork!

Looking at the expressions and movements of Qiusheng and Wencai, Zhang Jing could also understand what these two pit goods were thinking.

Not to mention them, even if it is themselves, if they return the one hundred taels of silver they have received, it will be an extremely painful thing.

But the prompt sound displayed by the system in his mind made Zhang Jing have to be cautious.

"Ding, collecting too much money will affect merit!"

A prompt suddenly popped up in the system, which made Zhang Jing a little confused.

If you collect too much money, will it affect your merits?

Is there such a saying?

Could it be that the merit value of the system is not obtained by taking it for granted, but by relying on one's own 'cultivation'?

If you do something bad, will it affect your merits?

But in fact, if you think about it, this actually doesn't make sense, or there are traces to follow!

In this way, he took a shortcut even if he used merit points to improve his cultivation. But the process of acquiring merit points for him is actually a cultivation in a sense!

His cultivation and promotion did not come out of thin air, but by utopia!

If merit points can come out of thin air, then the system will not reward him with merit points only after he kills the evil ghosts, and he can also be given to his daily activities.

For example, a meal rewards merit points, a pee rewards merit points, and a sleep reward merit points......

From time to time, there is a newbie package, a mystery draw, an exchange system or something......

But what?

None of these!

My own system is indeed a little different from the system in those novels I read in my previous life.

No bells and whistles, no glamorous sluts at all!

Want merit points? Want to improve your cultivation?

Then go to subdue demons and kill ghosts, kill zombies, and be a chivalrous and righteous person!

Look, look!

Our system, how positive the three views are!

It will never let you eat and drink in vain, hard work will be rewarded!

"Eh, Uncle System, I'm complimenting you, do you hear?"

"I heard the reply, let's talk?"

"You reminded me that collecting too much money will affect my merits, so you can tell me a specific number, how much I should collect, it is the normal range, and it will not affect my merits!"

"What a dumb guy for your monkey!"

Zhang Jing couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

My own system, sometimes it is too inhumane, I don't explain anything clearly, I have to guess and try by myself!

It's a pit!

For example, when you raise the level of your exercises, you don't tell yourself how much merit you need for each level you rise, and you don't tell yourself how much you have to charge when you collect money now.

How do you let me measure?

"I said you guys stop for a moment!" Zhang Jing looked at the light in his eyes, and hurriedly put the silver ingots into his pockets Qiusheng and Wencai, regardless of the opposition of the two, took out the silver ingots and put them back on the plate.

"Eh, eh, eh, ......"

"Senior brother, what are you doing!"

The two of them were in a hurry, their eyes were red, and they wanted to strangle Zhang Jing.

"Can you listen to me first?" Zhang Jing said helplessly.

"What is there to say? Why can't we ask for the silver that Boss He gave us? We earned it by killing ghosts, and it is not some ill-gotten gains!" Qiu Sheng glared.

Wen Cai also hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Yes, hurry up and bring the silver! Boss He will really not give us money later!"

Zhang Jing waved his hand and explained: "I didn't say I didn't want money, but isn't this one hundred taels of silver a bit much?"

"Is it too much?" Qiusheng asked Wencai.

Wen Cai shook his head: "Not much!"

Qiusheng spread his hands and said, "Yes, it's not much at all!"

Zhang Jing was too lazy to talk nonsense with these two living treasures, and asked directly: "Uncle Shi usually helps people do things and get rid of ghosts, how much does he usually charge?" After a pause, Zhang Jing said again: "Just like today, just kill a low-level ghost, how much does it cost?"

Wen Cai frowned at the furrow on his forehead that looked like a middle-aged man, and said, "Generally speaking, at most, twenty taels of silver......

When he finished speaking, he found that Qiusheng was constantly giving him a look.

Wen Cai scratched his head and asked, "Qiusheng, am I mistaken? Isn't it twenty taels of silver?"

Qiu was so angry that he knocked Wen Cai directly on the head.

He now understands what kind of person this Senior Brother Zhang is.

It turned out that like their master, he was a stubborn and inflexible old antique!

Obviously, you can make more money, but you don't want to, saying that the rules can't be messed up.

Help people subdue demons and exorcise ghosts, and you can't collect money indiscriminately.

Why?

Isn't this kind of thing wishful thinking? Employers are willing to give it, so why can't they accept it?

Wen Cai was knocked on the head, a little unhappy, and wondered: "What's the matter? Am I mistaken? No, I remember that a month ago, someone asked the master to help exorcise the evil ghosts, that is, twenty taels of silver. ”

Qiusheng patted his head in pain, speechless.

I thought to myself, who are the people around me?

It's either an antique or a!

Wen Cai still doesn't understand what it means!

Seeing this, Zhang Jing nodded with satisfaction, and had a plan in his heart.

He turned around with the silver, walked towards Boss He, and said with a righteous face: "Boss He, this silver is too much, I can't ask for it." ”

He Liang didn't speak, but narrowed his eyes, staring at Zhang Jing vigorously.

It seems that he wants to see clearly whether Zhang Jing is sincere or polite when he says this.

But as a human spirit, he couldn't see what Zhang Jing was thinking after watching it for a while, so he asked tentatively: "Does Daochang Zhang think that one hundred taels of silver is not enough?"

Zhang Jing waved his hand and said, "It's not that it's not enough, but it's too much." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Jing returned eight of the ten silver ingots, leaving only two.

With Zhang Jing's move, the system's prompt disappeared in an instant, indicating that receiving twenty taels of silver would not affect the merits.

Zhang Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Twenty taels of silver, it's enough." ”

He Liang was really puzzled now.

For so many years, it was the first time he had seen someone dislike too much money and wanted to take the initiative to return it!

In this world, no matter how rich people are, they won't dislike too much money, right?

So He Liang asked puzzledly: "Dare to ask Daochang Zhang, is this why?"

Zhang Jing's heart hurt to death.

I want all of this one hundred taels of silver!

As a result, in the blink of an eye, there were eighty taels less, and only twenty taels were left, and I wanted to ask why!

But if you think like this, you can't show it.

Waving his sleeves, Zhang Jing looked like he had attained the Tao, and replied: "Money is something outside the body, I am a cultivator, and it is my duty to subdue demons and catch ghosts, and it is enough to collect a certain amount of money." If I collect too much money, it will affect my desire to seek the truth......"

Zhang Jing's words, although they were not what he thought in his heart, pretended to be mostly forced.

But in fact, it is not without reason.

Cultivators also have to eat, so they must not wait to starve to death without money.

Even, make many magic weapons and talismans, such as yellow paper, cinnabar, and money sword...... Which one doesn't cost money?

Therefore, no matter what Taoist priest is, it is impossible to help people for free and take nothing!

However, if you rely on a spell to collect ill-gotten gains and collect money for yourself, it will definitely not work!

Originally, subduing demons and exorcising demons was a matter of accumulating merit, but if it evolved into a means of making money, it was not a matter of doing good deeds and accumulating merit.

Just like Uncle Nine, with his ability, is it difficult to make money? Why is he still so poor?

Another example is the four-eyed Dao Chief, and his mana is not weak, right?

Why do you have to work so hard to help people drive out corpses to make money?

In fact, it is a very simple truth: a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way!

So Uncle Nine can make more money, but he abides by the rules and will not take money that should not be collected;

So even if the four-eyed Taoist is long, as long as he wants to, he has many ways to make money, but he will still choose to drive out the corpse.

That's where morality lies!

In general, monasticism is not for the sake of glory and wealth.

If it is for the sake of glory and wealth, one should not come to the Tao.

Zhang Jing doesn't understand this truth yet, but under the prompting of the system, he will also do so.

Zhang Daochang...... Gao Yi!"

He Liang shouted and bowed to Zhang Jing again.

No matter how good he is, he was shocked by Zhang Jing's rhetoric at this time, and he really felt that Zhang Jing was a master who regarded money as dung and was bent on seeking the truth!

Otherwise, I wouldn't have a hundred taels of silver in front of me, but only twenty taels.

The onlookers even looked at Zhang Jing with admiration.

This is the real Taoist master!

Seeing this, Zhang Jing's uncomfortable mood after losing a huge amount of money was also much better.

He is a layman who loves money, but he will not break his hands for money, desperate.

What's more, it's a bizarre world where money is a good thing, but it's not the best thing.

As long as it's enough to spend!

The most important thing is to improve your cultivation!

Therefore, between money and merit, he will not hesitate to choose the latter.

What's more, twenty taels of silver is actually quite a lot.

If an ordinary person wants to earn twenty taels of silver, how long does it take to earn it?

Today, he just spent some mana, and after one night of cultivation, he made up for it, and there was no big problem.

Turning his head to look at Qiusheng and Wencai, who were reluctant to give up on eighty taels of silver, Zhang Jing said: "Boss He, the three of us senior brothers are having dinner in Lianxiang Building today, can we be free of charge?"

He Liang hurriedly said: "Of course!"

Eighty taels of silver saved, what is the cost of a meal?

Boss He was very happy at this time, and his fat face smiled like a flower.

Known as the iron rooster, he is in a good mood for reducing his expenses, and his weak body is a little better.

He felt that Zhang Jing should be given a hundred taels of silver.

But if you can not give it, of course it is the best!

"That's right. Zhang Jing suddenly thought of something, and asked thoughtfully: "Boss He, I don't know if you have offended anyone recently?"

He Liang was stunned for a moment, thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "Who have you offended? Dao Chief, what's the matter?"

"Uh....... Zhang Jing was a little hesitant and didn't know what to say.

This time, the ghost puppet on Boss He's body may have been deliberately harmed by someone behind him. But it is also possible that it is just a coincidence.

He doesn't have much experience in this kind of thing, so he needs to go back and ask Uncle Nine for advice.

Now that the ghost is dead, and the clue is broken, he can't find anything.

So Zhang Jing thought about it and had to say: "Boss He, if you encounter such a strange illness in the future, you can come to Yizhuang to take a look." ”

He Liang hurriedly nodded and said, "Of course!

Soon, the crowd dispersed.

Zhang Jing and Qiusheng Wencai also returned to the dinner table.

These two people were still in mood at this time, as if they had lost eighty taels of silver, they were both depressed and didn't want to deal with Zhang Jing.

After all the dishes they ordered came up, the two finally got interested and began to gobble up.

If you want to eat all the eighty taels of silver that flew away!

However, when they were eating, they were surprised to find that Zhang Jing, who was still like dung just now and didn't want any money in his hand, was even more fierce than them when he ate!

How did they know that Zhang Jing's unwillingness in his heart was actually no less than theirs.

Eighty taels of silver are gone, and if you don't eat a little more, it's a big loss!

Anyway, this meal doesn't cost money.

When you're done eating, you can order again!

If you can't finish eating, pack it!

(PS1: Again, I'm sorry for the reading barriers.)

But in fact, the author is the most reluctant to change the text, it is not easy to change, and the thoughts will be completely disrupted, which is very painful.

And it's thankless, and many readers also hate the author's rewriting, and even abandon the book because of it.

But for the sake of progress, for better, pertinent opinions, the author must definitely accept.

PS2: Now after the rewording, it should be better, right?

I thought of a compromise and expressed what I wanted to express, and the setting didn't change much.

Money must be earned, I understand this truth, so the protagonist is not a person who does not love money. But since it's a merit system, we can't rely on the system to make money without containment, right?

If you don't control the money, the novel is really easy to collapse. And as a Taoist priest, even if you don't want to cultivate, but you have too much money, and you are drunk all day long, it is always not good.

ps3: Last night, I didn't go to bed until half past two, and I didn't wake up at eight o'clock in the morning, and I opened my eyes and saw everyone's opinions, and I quickly got up to change the text until now, and it was still dedicated.

Everyone, recommend a wave of votes?)
