Chapter Seventy-Four: Fortune Descends from Heaven
Huang Qing was taken aback, she didn't expect Dong Xiaoping to give them money. Although he didn't support them selling spirit weapons, it was for security reasons, and the fact that he gave money could prove that he had no selfish intentions.
She was moved in her heart, but she still refused: "Brother Dong, I can't take your money for nothing." β
Dong Xiaoping said with a smile: "Don't you want to cure Huang Youyou's illness as soon as possible? Moreover, Dongfang Yan has taken it in, aren't you trying to embarrass him?"
When the little girl heard Dong Xiaoping mention her name, she felt very excited.
Dongfang Yan also smiled and said: "You take it first, this will make us both short of money, let's go back and repay Brother Dong, as long as we have a spiritual weapon in our hands, sooner or later we can earn money to pay him back." β
The two talked again, and Huang Qingcai finally took it, bowed, and asked Huang Youyou to bow and thank you as well.
Dong Xiaoping hurriedly stopped, people are patients, why bother.
"Sister Huang Qing...... I still owe you a plant of boiling blood grass. Lin Jinshi said suddenly, "Do you think I can pay you back five taels of white bank?"
On the road before, Dong Xiaoping set him a monthly salary of three taels of silver, which was set according to Ge Xiaoyue's monthly money, and then gave him a month's salary in advance.
Unexpectedly, in less than half an hour, he connected his belongings and spent a fine piece!
Huang Qing didn't postpone it, and said, "If you have the money to pay it back, then I'll accept it." β
Dong Xiaoping and the three of them simply had dinner at Huang Qing's house and then left.
After dinner, Dong Xiaoping said goodbye and left. At this time, it was already dark, and there were no street lights in the shantytown, so Huang Qing, who was familiar with the road, sent them out of the shantytown until they reached the south gate of Dongshi.
When several people were about to separate, Dong Xiaoping suddenly saw a beautiful figure, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be Zhao Yuan, who was asking someone on the side of the street about something.
Dong Xiaoping wondered in her heart, this area is full of ordinary shops, what did she come here to buy?
"Master Zhao?" Dong Xiaoping greeted.
Zhao Yuan seemed to be electrocuted, helped to look back, and saw that it was Dong Xiaoping who calmed down, but it was still a little unnatural, and said, "You ...... You live around here?".
"Yes, I live in East City, what are you doing here, do you want to buy anything? I'll buy it for you. β
"No...... No, I'll buy it myself...... Actually, I didn't buy anything. It can be seen that she is a little nervous from the action of brushing her hair, because she hardly usually picks her hair.
"Okay...... If you need it, just tell me. β
"Okay, you go and get your hands dirty. β
Maybe it was a one-night stand, and Zhao Yuan and Dong Xiaoping's tone when they spoke naturally calmed down a lot.
While Dong Xiaoping and Zhao Yuan were chatting, Huang Qing and Lin Jinshi were dumbfounded, this woman who was talking to Dong Xiaoping was actually a master.
Dongfang Yan was even more dumbfounded, he had seen Zhao Yuan and knew that she was a very difficult person to talk to, but he didn't expect to look familiar with Dong Xiaoping.
In the face of the Venerable Master, they did not even dare to come forward to say hello.
"By the way, Zhao Shangren, can I trouble you with something?" Dong Xiaoping suddenly remembered something.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing Dong Xiaoping speaking very seriously, Zhao Yuan walked over.
"Aren't you good at root probing? Can you help a few of my friends look at the spiritual roots?"
Dong Xiaoping thought to himself that Old Master Zhao couldn't look at people over the age of eighteen, Dongfang Yan was eighteen, Huang Qing was nineteen, and he couldn't see it, so it was better to trouble Zhao Yuan to take a look.
When the three of them heard Dong Xiaoping say this, they were all very excited, except for Dongfang Yan who had seen it once when he was twelve years old, no one else had seen the spiritual root, even if it was Dongfang Yan, he might already have a spiritual root, but he just didn't know.
It costs money to look at the spiritual root, not everyone can afford it, and the older you get, the more it costs.
"Okay, who's going to see. Zhao Yuan agreed very simply, but criticized Dong Xiaoping and said: "But let me remind you, you can't call mortals friends, others will laugh at you when they hear it." β
As soon as these words came out, Dongfang Yan lowered his head in embarrassment.
Dong Xiaoping directly ignored the second half of the sentence and said with a smile: "Let's test them all." β
Zhao Yuan didn't delay, first probed Dongfang Yan's spiritual root, and said after a while: "No." β
Although it was expected, Dongfang Yan was still very disappointed.
Zhao Yuan explored Lin Jinshi again, but the result was no. Lin Jinshi was very disappointed, but he could accept it, after all, it was not normal to have a spiritual root.
Zhao Yuan probed Huang Qing again, and after a while, he said expressionlessly: "This person has it, the next grade, is there anyone else to test?"
Huang Qing didn't react for a while, and it wasn't until Dong Xiaoping said happily, "Congratulations, Senior Sister Huang!", that she realized that she was about to enter the ranks of monks.
Dongfang Yan was born with an open-minded personality and had no jealousy, and also congratulated her: "Congratulations...... Alasββ, I didn't expect that I would be reciting the spiritual root all day long but I couldn't, you have no desire and no desire but blessings fall from the sky. β
Huang Qing never expected that he would have a spiritual root, nor did he think about what it meant, his head was a little dizzy for a while, but he subconsciously coped with everyone's congratulations.
"Oh, and there's another one...... However, in the shantytown, the light is dim, and it is not easy to see the road. β
Dong Xiaoping thought of Huang Youyou, if Zhao Yuan was willing, it would be better to watch it together.
"Then let's go, I have a magic lamp. Zhao Yuan agreed without thinking about it.
The Dharma lantern is what mortals call the fairy night light, which is illuminated by aura, which is very convenient and widely used by monks.
After Dong Xiaoping and the others left, the excitement in Huang Youyou's heart gradually calmed down, and he just thought: "I thought he was tall and big, but I didn't expect him to be an ordinary person, but I don't know where he came from?"
Thinking about it, I heard footsteps coming, and then a very beautiful big sister entered the house with a fairy night lamp, and said to her: "I heard that you are sick, you don't need to get up, just lie down." β
Zhao Yuan thought that she would go down to the ground to salute, so she stopped her in advance, but she was worried in vain, and Huang Youyou didn't recognize her as a Venerable Master at all.
After the detection, Zhao Yuan shook his head and said, "There is no spiritual root...... I'll leave first. β
"Master Zhao walked slowly. The crowd saluted.
After Zhao Yuan left, several people chatted excitedly for half an hour before leaving.
When he was separated from Lin Jinshi, Dong Xiaoping asked him for his address, gave him a little living expenses, and instructed him to come to him after a while and don't go out to make trouble again, otherwise he would definitely beat him.
Lin Jinshi agreed again and again like a chicken pecking rice.
The next day, Dong Xiaoping went to the spirit food shop.
"Master, what kind of spiritual food do you want? I'll introduce you. The shopkeeper greeted warmly.
"Tell me what the price points are?"
"There are like this, you can have thirty or forty yuan of aura a day, about four cents of Mithril, there are fine ones, you can have fifty yuan of aura a day, about one cent of Mithril, and the best, you can have sixty yuan of aura a day, and you need five dollars of Mithril. β
In this way, in terms of cost performance, the better the spiritual food, the less it can be worthwhile, and the best spiritual food provides twice as much spiritual energy, but its price is ten times greater.
If you go to Yuling Peak to practice for a day, the average person can probably get fifteen yuan of spiritual energy, but it only costs one cent of the tax. This is a bit more expensive to cultivate with spiritual food, but the spiritual energy that can be obtained every day is much more, and the cultivation speed will of course be faster.
Dong Xiaoping pondered for a moment and asked, "Then what price do others usually buy?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "How can this be said accurately, the rich one, naturally it is bought well, this cultivation should be sooner rather than later, the sooner you cultivate to a higher level, then you can earn more money earlier, isn't it?"
This guy wants Dong Xiaoping to buy more expensive spiritual food.
He is a little distressed about money, one penny of Mithril a day, three taels of Mithril a month, his savings plus the two taels of Mithril monthly money promised by Zhao Yuan, can support most of the year, but when the time comes, he will be destitute, not to mention, if something goes wrong, the money will be spent before he has built a layer.
Dong Xiaoping asked in a different way: "Among the hundred people, how many people buy ordinary spiritual food?"
The shopkeeper smiled: "There are many people, ninety of them, but you are not short of money, how can you compare with others?"
Dong Xiaoping said: "Then I'll think about it and come over to buy it." β
Whether it is cost-effective, or whether it is necessary to cultivate speed, this is a big question.
To answer this question accurately, you need to combine the speed at which you make money, but except for the monthly silver provided by Zhao Yuan, you don't have a fixed income at all.
Think about it.
Dong Xiaoping came out of the spirit food shop and found that it was very close to Qin Chuyu's house, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't been to see her for several days, and his servant was too lazy.
He decided to go see her today, otherwise he would forget about it when he got busy.
However, it will be early, and she is probably still cultivating in the Dao Hall, and she will not go home until at least in the evening, and there will be several hours left.
He suddenly came up with an idea, why not buy her a dress while he had time now. She doesn't pay much attention to cultivation, and it is estimated that the cultivation resources given to her are not pleasing to her, and according to her girlish character, she will definitely like beautiful clothes.
Qin Chuyu helped him so much, borrowed money and gave him a stick, and the key was to allow him to run around, and now that he has made a fortune, it doesn't mean that it is really unreasonable.
So he went to the monk's clothing shop.
There are more ready-to-wear stores in Qingbo Lake than outside, mainly because the people here pay attention to efficiency. But there are still a large number of custom shops, no way, it is human nature to love beauty, even monks are no exception, only close-fitting tailoring will make the best clothes.
Dong Xiaoping had helped her order clothes before, so he naturally knew her body size, and he had time to let them do it immediately, but it would cost a little more.
Dong Xiaoping is very willing to spend money on this set of women's monks' clothes, using the best materials, spending four taels of mythril, and under his modern aesthetic guidance, it is made new and beautiful.
