Volume 1 The Story of Asa Mountain Chapter 41 Early Autumn Wind and Rain
The lake and the mountains are beautiful, and the water is shining.
Jiang Feng was dressed in a gray coarse cloth short coat, carrying a backpack with a slanted shoulder jacket, sitting on the bow of the boat blowing the wind, a group of gray and white wild ducks foraging for food quacked, fluttering and flying by, the mountains were full of red leaves in the distance, and the forests were dyed, a good autumn scene.
"The guest officer is not a local. "The captain was an old man, with a thin body supporting a penny, but he had all the strength, and his crimson chest was exposed, and he looked like a man who often worked by the water's edge.
"How can you see it?" Jiang Feng was interested.
"The locals have seen a lot of this 'East Lake', who will be like you, everything is fresh, but you should not be a literati. ”
"Oh? Why?"
"At this time, the literati had already begun to improvise poems, and perhaps now they had begun to refine the words. But look at you, most of you have been an official, did you make a mistake and was impeached by the 'Spiegel Division', let me tell you, for an official term, for the benefit of one party, although it is normal for life to have ups and downs......" He opened the conversation box and began to pour out the philosophy of life that he agreed with.
"......" Jiang Feng laughed a few times to relieve his embarrassment, he originally came to "Donghu County" to observe the people's situation in private clothes, and pretended to be a passer-by, but he didn't expect to be seen through so easily.
"You know this, the old man is very insightful. ”
"Where, where, I didn't understand it originally, but now that the third grandson is in school, what do I read every day 'Nine Xuan Dao Sutra' and 'Enweilu' to me, won't I just learn and sell it now?"
"Nine Xuandao Sutra" is Jiang Fengling's "Mengjiao Division" compiled an enlightenment textbook suitable for the mundane, with a total of nine volumes, telling the basic common sense that the secular people should understand and the introduction to the Tao;
"How's it going, how much does it cost for the baby to go to school?"
"It's more, why not much," the old man said, "I have ten acres of water surface by the East Lake, and I have raised East Lake whitebait and clear water snails, and after a year of hard work, I only earn five spirit stones, and I go to school for one spirit stone a year, do you say it's expensive? ”
Jiang Feng's heart was originally raised, but only then did he settle down, he thought that the last school would give everything he had, and one-fifth of his income could support a scholar, which was already quite good. Ten acres of water surface, five pieces a year, the entire Donghu County, a total of 50,000 acres of new water surface around, although not all used for breeding, but the overall income is considerable, and the income of all walks of life driven by this, the total amount of commercial tax paid by each link is not a decimal.
The sky-high spirit stones required for the "351" Zhengqi Alliance token to participate in the conference may be able to solve part of it by relying on commercial taxes, seeing the changes here with his own eyes, thinking of the large number of spirit stones that he is about to buy, he can't help but laugh out loud.
"Hey, guest officer," the old man hurriedly threw the penny, came over and grabbed Jiang Feng's shoulders, and shook it vigorously, "What's wrong with you? This means that the wind on this lake is strong, and you are not allowed to sit on the bow of the boat, is there something wrong?"
The appearance of the old man gradually blurred, and gradually became a familiar face, sparse stubble, white skin, kind eyebrows, but Wang Xiandao.
"Master, you forgot the three agreements, can you take the income of the sect's treasury!"
Jiang Feng's heart was suddenly startled, his whole body trembled, and he opened his eyes to see the gray curtain around him, it turned out that the experience he had just experienced turned out to be a dream.
In front of the carved pine bed, there are two young girls who are breathing evenly and sleeping soundly at this moment, they are the "ordinary boys" sent by the Ding family and the Zheng family as ordered, and it is also an embarrassing thing to stop them who have been "ordered to sleep" every day recently.
It's nonsense!
Jiang Feng sighed, rubbed his temples lightly with the thumbs of both hands, relieving the mood that had become fluctuating due to the dream, it seems that he has been overthinking in the past few days, seeing that the sky is about to pass, it is time to prepare for today's sect meeting.
............
Wind and Rain Pavilion.
Good weather as always.
Law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao came to the Wind and Rain Pavilion early, he didn't sleep all night, his eyes were bloodshot, and a few more stubbles had grown on his sparse stubble, which was so hard that he had the urge to pull it off.
He is not the first, the "Glass Spirit Bowl Steaming" on the side of Elder Zhao Wenjun's hand is steaming, and the air is filled with the refreshing fragrance of tea, this guy looks like he has been there for a long time.
"Your bowl of steaming is good, it's still Qingzhan, so interested. Wang Xiandao sat down comfortably, and casually found some weather to talk about, but he was also quite strange in his heart, Zhao Wenjun is usually very thrifty, this Qingzhan quality "glass spirit bowl steaming" tea boiling kit, the price is ten first-order spirit stones, and every time you make tea, you have to consume a first-order fire spirit stone, which can be regarded as a very luxurious plaything, where did he get his interest today?
"Elder Wang, have a cup?" The spirit bowl steamed a set of six small cups with exquisite shapes, Zhao Wenjun looked at Wang Xiandao with inquiring eyes, but his hand was half a beat slower, and he didn't take the cup.
"No, look at Wenjun, are you having a happy event?"
"Oh, nothing, nothing, it's all trifle. Zhao Wenjun said that it was nothing, but the joy on his face rushed to his eyebrows, "The little girl Liangdi awakened the natal law the day before yesterday, and the lady read my hard work and specially approved this set of tea sets. ”
"Congratulations," Wang Xiandao said in his heart, his Wang family is not short of children who have awakened the natal law, and the Zhao family is not easy for the iron tree to bloom, "I don't know how the law is?"
"The Spirit Casting Double Flying Sword is not too good. Zhao Wenjun tried his best to show a regretful expression, but unfortunately his skills were not enough, so he quickly laughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, "But we can't ask too much for contentment." ”
Soul Casting Twin Flying Sword?
Wang Xiandao was really surprised in his heart, the "Soul Casting Double Flying Sword" obviously belongs to the combat law phase, among the younger generation of the Wang family, only Wang Youzhi's law phase is the "wingless flying tiger", quite a fighting talent, this Zhao family only has one child awakened, it is this kind of law phase, what shit luck has gone?
was about to ask for details, but Zheng Luda swaggered in, it was already the autumn season, he actually took a white paper fan in his hand, nodded casually with Wang Xiandao, and sat down with Zhang Fei.
"Wen Jun is happy, congratulations. ”
"Where, where," Zhao Wenjun actually took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Zheng Luda.
Saying that when did the two of them become so affectionate, and how did Zheng Luda know about Zhao Liangdi's awakening, Wang Xiandao's heart was full of doubts, fortunately, there is no "Youth Council" today, and he can completely be his "original self", so he will treat it as if it does not exist, and continue to rub his mustache to nourish his spirits.
Foreign Affairs Elder Wu Quanzhong came belatedly, wearing a brand-new sheepskin coat, his fear of cold is well-known in the Ashala Sect, although this is early autumn, only a little cool, as a monk, and the Dharma is the cold-resistant "Copper Grass" of the body, I have to say, this is very rare.
"It's all here," Wu Quanzhong rubbed his hands, "It's a little cold this day, Wang Yi, you go and close the window a few times," Before he finished speaking, he took out three beautifully packaged small gifts from the storage bag.
"Wood Xuanhuo Painting Palace Lamp," he introduced and distributed them one by one, "Elder Wei who covered the sea gate the day before yesterday came over and gave a small gift, one for each person, this lamp puts a wooden spirit stone, and it can be reflected on the wall with exquisite murals, and the effect is quite good." ”
"That's good," Zhao Wenjun picked up one and looked at it carefully, "Your gift is good, I can give it to my family Liangdi when I go back." ”
"Liangdi, this girl is good, I can't imagine it, Wenjun, you are really a blessed person, if you don't think about it, how about giving me Tianyi?" Wu Quanzhong leaned forward and said as if he was serious.
"Yes, a palace lamp wants to deceive my family Liangdi, don't think about it, don't you think about it, don't you give an order to the head of the house, you can only marry at the age of eighteen. Zhao Wenjun joked and picked up the head as a shield, Zhao Liangdi is now his heart, even if there is no ban from the head of the house, he has no intention of marrying Liangdi so soon.
"Hahaha," the two of them, along with Zheng Luda, laughed, making Wang Xiandao feel for a while that he seemed to be ignored by everyone.
What's the situation? Zhao Liangdi's awakening of the natal law is the only one he doesn't know, and they all know about it early on? Is it Zhao Wenjun showing off in tandem or is there something else hidden? Isn't Elder Wei of the Haimen Sect the Wei family, why was I kept in the dark about what he came about, could it be that it was because I politely rejected her request, and he turned to Wu Quanzhong for help? As an elder of foreign affairs, Wu Quanzhong was indeed much more natural than me when he came into contact with the people of the Haimen, and the question was what they talked about? Did Mrs. Wei, who likes to put transactions on the table, participate in it?
In an instant, many questions came to his mind, Wang Xiandao's eyes narrowed slightly, looking as if he was recuperating his spirits, but his heart was extremely vigilant.
"Anyway, Wen Jun, look at this palace lamp, it's also a non-grade magic weapon, is it possible for us to sell it for money?" Zheng Luda thought of the way to make money, and his eyes were brighter than anyone else.
"It's difficult, it's difficult," after the palace lamp arrived, Zhao Wenjun also played with it for the first time, and thought of this, to say that the most lacking of money among the elders is him, originally the children were all ordinary people, but now that there is one more monk, the cost is greater, and he has the heart to pick up the refining skills that have been thrown away for many years, but this skill is the ability to burn money first, and it is difficult to start for a while. He smacked his lips and swallowed a mouthful of the strong tea he had been brewing for a long time.
"Our Qianshan Sect lacks talents in this area, the foundation is very thin, and the most important thing is that there is a lack of money. ”
"Where is the lack of money?"
There was a sound of brisk footsteps outside the door, it was Jiang Feng who arrived, he paced into the hall, sat on the mammoth leather seat that symbolized power, adjusted the downward direction, and for the first time revealed the cultivation aura of the fifth order of the Xuan level, together with the more familiar "invisible sword qi", and swept towards everyone.
