"You want to learn the Tiger Leaping Knife Method?"

When the gray-robed old man heard this, his expression froze slightly.

As the head of the sect, he naturally knew very well that there were many young students in the academy who tried to cultivate the Tiger Leaping Sword Technique, but then they all gave up, and only one Yan Han was still insisting on cultivating. He originally wanted to persuade Ye Chen to change his martial arts, but seeing the excitement on Ye Chen's face, he thought about it for a while, gave up persuasion, and let this kid taste the bitterness.

"The Tiger Leaping Knife Method is an advanced knife technique, but there are only six moves. Compared with the dozens or hundreds of complicated moves of other sword techniques and sword techniques, the moves are very few. You can follow the cold in the future. ”

The gray-robed old man shouted at a young man who was practicing swords alone on the school grounds, "Cold, come here!"

"Sect Leader Shi, what are you looking for me?"

The young student put away the knife and walked over indifferently.

"This is your senior brother Ye Chen, who has just reached the fourth level of the body refining stage, and will follow you to cultivate in the future, and you will teach him the sword technique. ”

The old man pointed at Ye Chen and introduced with a smile.

"Why do you want a newcomer to follow me to cultivate? It's just a waste of my time! There are more than 200 junior brothers and sisters in the upper courtyard, why don't you find someone else to take him?"

Yan Han frowned, looking very unhappy.

"You are the only one in this academy who has learned the Tiger Leaping Sword Technique, and you are the most proficient, and only you can guide him. If it weren't for the old man's cultivation of shadowless legs, there would be no need for you to guide him. Anyway, the person is handed over to you, you can do it. ”

The tone of the gray-robed old man was unquestionable. After saying that, he took his hands and left, regardless of whether the cold was happy or not.

Yan Han didn't dare to talk to the head teacher, and glanced at Ye Chen with cold eyes.

"Senior Brother Yan, please give me more advice!"

Ye Chen hurriedly gave up his hand, with a sincere attitude.

"Today's morning training is over, let's talk about it tomorrow. ”

Yan Han looked up at the scorching sun in the midday sky, and left the school with a cold face

The students of Beilu Academy are both civil and military.

In the morning, practice martial arts and practice martial arts. In the afternoon, students will study and read and write.

However, the martial arts country emphasizes martial arts and ignores literature, and the only purpose of literacy is only to be able to understand martial arts classics. Unless you want to become a knowledgeable scholar in the future, generally no one will spend too much time and energy on literature. Therefore, students in the academy can go to the library to study on their own, or they can go to the school to listen to lectures, or arrange their own reading time, which is more casual.

At the end of this morning's cultivation, the students of Beilu Academy dispersed from the martial arts training school one after another.

Ye Chen left the martial arts training school.

He didn't have much time to study, so he used the afternoon to work and earn money for his own cultivation.

After Ye Chen finished lunch, he hurried to the academy's logistics and miscellaneous service compound, and waited on the stone steps outside Chief Li's house, ready to receive miscellaneous labor from Chief Manager Li. Manager Li's position is not big, but he is in charge of the distribution of all logistics and miscellaneous duties in the Beilu Academy, and for a poor student in the academy like Ye Chen, he is definitely a high-ranking and powerful figure in the academy.

It didn't take long for dozens of poor teenagers who were ready to receive miscellaneous jobs in the miscellaneous compound one after another.

"Senior Brother Ye, I'm here to get the miscellaneous labor again!"

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Ye for suddenly entering the middle stage of body refining, and I hope that Senior Brother will give me more guidance in the future!"

These young students in the lower courtyard greeted Ye Chen warmly when they saw him, and then lined up behind Ye Chen in turn. The students in the upper courtyard are all brothers and sisters in front of the students in the lower court.

"Fellow disciples practice diligently, and sooner or later they will be able to enter the middle stage of body refining!"

Ye Chen smiled and nodded in response.

Many of the people who came here to receive miscellaneous labor to earn money were poor civilian children in the early stage of body refining, and they were more familiar with each other when they met. But everyone came for the chorus task, and didn't have the heart to talk about anything else.

"Crunch".

The door opened.

After lunch, Mr. Li came to the front steps of the house with a full stomach and a thick booklet in his hand.

"Boss!"

Ye Chen hurriedly said respectfully.

"Ye Chen, you are always the most diligent every time, there are no vacancies almost every day, and you are at the front! I have earned a lot of silver from my work over the years, which is enough to marry a daughter-in-law, right?"

When Manager Li saw Ye Chen in front of the steps again, he couldn't help but smile.

The chief manager laughed, it costs too much money to practice on weekdays, and the poor jingle rings, and I don't know how many years I have married a daughter-in-law. Boss, what are your tasks today?"

Ye Chen scratched his head with a smile.

Manager Li nodded, flipped through the handyman booklet in his hand, and said, "There are a lot of miscellaneous jobs in the school today, you can pick one first! What do you want to do today?"

There is a lot of chores in the Beilu Academy, and poor students will be hired to do it and subsidize the students' cultivation.

Ye Chen has been in the academy for nearly ten years, receiving these miscellaneous jobs every day, and the silver taels he earns are used to buy herbs for cultivation and temper his physique. But as his cultivation gradually improved, the copper coins earned by ordinary daily chores were too small.

"Grand Administrator, I have reached the fourth layer of the refining stage today and have entered the upper courtyard. Need more money to buy herbs for cultivation. Which is the most lucrative job? You know best, boss, arrange one for me!"

Ye Chen said expectantly.

"Are you on the fourth level of the refining period? There is a new job in the academy that can earn a lot of silver, and this job was originally arranged for the academy teachers to do it, not for the students to do it. However, you are now a student of the Upper Academy, and your status is similar to that of the college teacher, so you can do it. ”

Manager Li looked surprised, and then said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Chief, for your orders!"

Ye Chen was overjoyed.

He had a strong desire to cultivate and become stronger, but this required money to buy herbs for refining his physique.

"The academy has recently acquired a batch of used books from all over the country, and there are several wagons with nearly 10,000 volumes, which are piled up in the old library of the library. ”

"These old books are old books acquired from some small bookstores and down-and-out families in various places, and they need to be sorted and classified. Many of them are even damaged, or even fragmented or wasted. The tidying up of what should be done, the discarding of what should be discarded. ”

"It was a tedious task, so the college allocated a sum of money to hire someone to sort out the scrolls. The old man will give you a month to clean out these scrolls, and the daily remuneration will be one or two pieces of silver. ”

"This is the miscellaneous token, you take the order to go to the king steward of the library and get the key to the old library. ”

Manager Li took out a token and gave it to Ye Chen.

"Chief Xie, the disciple will complete the task on schedule within a month. ”

Ye Chen took the token excitedly, and almost cheered in surprise.

This is the largest single amount of money he has ever received, and the longest time to do miscellaneous work.

"No, don't you, earn a tael of silver a day? Such a good job was preempted by Senior Brother Ye Chen! I knew earlier, I would have come to line up earlier!" "Come on, he is a disciple of the upper courtyard, so he is qualified to undertake the task of sorting out the library." We are all lower court disciples, and we are not qualified to pick it up at all!"

The students of the lower courtyard who were waiting in line at the back to receive the odd jobs from Chief Manager Li widened their eyes one by one, and they almost shouted out with jealousy.

The general odd jobs in the academy can only earn dozens of copper coins a day, and at most no more than a hundred. There has never been a chorre like tidying up old book stacks that earns one or two pieces of silver a day, which is equivalent to a thousand coppers.

And he can still work for a month in a row and receive a full thirty taels of silver.

This is a great gift for the poor students in the academy.

Of course, Ye Chen came to Beilu Academy at the age of five, stayed in the academy for ten years, and did odd jobs for ten years before he had such a friendship with Mr. Li. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Manager Li to hand over such an important job to Ye Chen

"The king is in charge, and the disciples have been ordered to come and sort out the books in the old library. ”

Ye Chen took the miscellaneous service token, came to the academy library, and found the king steward.

There is only one book pavilion in the Beilu Academy.

It contains a large number of military, geographical, and historical files of the martial arts, as well as the most precious martial arts classics.

Borrowing books at the Book Pavilion is subject to a per-volume fee. The primary martial arts at the bottom are relatively cheap. The high-level martial arts at the top are ridiculously expensive. There are a large number of guards inside and outside the library, and the masters in the late stage of refining are in charge to prevent theft.

Ye Chen rarely borrowed books here, and he was reluctant to borrow copper coins.

Under the library, there is also an old book storehouse. There was a large number of dilapidated books that had not been sorted out, but ordinary people could not enter them, and the key to the old library was in the hands of the king, who was in charge of the library.

"How can Mr. Li let a student sort out the books? Forget it, since Mr. Li asked you to come, let's go to work. ”

Steward Wang knew in his heart that there might be a cat in it, hiring a teacher to work and hiring a student to work, the price given is different, the difference can be several times, most of the manager Li is using this to deduct the silver two self-fattening, and he is not good at being the financial way of the manager Li.
