Chapter XXIII. Prices

There is a mansion in the center of Lingling County, and the plaque of this mansion is engraved with the three big characters of 'Taishou Mansion'.

Taishou is a position established by the Haoyue Empire in the county city, and has no real power. The function is to record the big and small matters of Lingling County, and report to the Haoyue Imperial Family and one of the students of the Thirteen Taibao stationed in Jingzhou. They don't control the county, but they don't have jurisdiction over the county. Directly obeyed the orders of the Thirteen Taibao, and indirectly obeyed the orders of the Haoyue royal family. belongs to Wenchen, and the strength is different.

The Taishou of Lingling County is just an old man at the peak of the Yunling level, named Nangong Jie, who studied under the great calligrapher Li Daolin. In terms of strength, there is no division. However, Nangong Jie will occasionally be guided by students, so he also calls himself a protégé of Taibao.

At the gate of the Taishou Mansion, Nangong Jie, a Confucian robe, came out of the Taishou Mansion with his entourage.

As soon as he came out, he was greeted by a young man. This young man is none other than Fang Yang, a master of painting in Lingling County.

"Taishou-sama, I have two new paintings!"

"Oh?" Nangong Jie raised his eyebrows and immediately said, "Show me quickly!"

Fang Yang hurriedly opened the scroll, and Nangong Jie took a closer look.

"It's a little less like a little less visually, you can put it in my mansion, and I'll take a closer look when I come back from the Sword Immortal Residence!"

"Yes!"

Fang Yang immediately put away the new work and handed it to Nangong Jie's entourage.

The works that are really sold in the Sword Immortal Residence are all defective products that Taishou Nangong Jie thinks. He studied under the great calligrapher Li Daolin, and naturally he valued literature and art more than cultivation. However, he has extremely high requirements for his work. Even if Fang Yang's 100 works are not necessarily one or two sets of eyes that can be as good as Taishou.

Although Nangong Jie does not have a high political status in Lingling County, he can be said to be at the top of the pyramid in terms of art. He himself is a master of calligraphy, and his works are either placed in the master-level works of the Sword Immortal Residence or sold directly in Luoyang, the national capital.

The reason why Fang Yang showed the work to Nangong Jie for the first time was that the price given by Nangong Jie was quite reasonable and fair, and secondly, his own status in literature and art was recognized by him, which was a very fulfilling thing for people who love art. Sanlai's works, which are especially recognized by Nangong Jie, can also be sent to Luoyang for sale. can be sold in Luoyang, which is already a master-level level in Lingling County, and its value has skyrocketed.

So far, only one person's work has been sent to Luoyang by Nangong Jie. However, the man died at the time of the creation of the Chai family. Since then, no one has met such a requirement.

The entourage took Fang Yang's picture scroll and returned to the Taishou Mansion, while Nangong Jie took the rest of the entourage to the Sword Immortal Residence.

Yun Xian's "Moon God Map", because it was sent by Lian Yue'er personally, so in the first place in the corridor of the Sword Immortal Residence, Nangong Jie saw it as soon as he entered.

"Huh, why is this picture scroll in this position?" Nangong Jie only glanced at it when he entered, and then directly suspicious.

Soon, the middle-aged man in charge of the Sword Immortal Residence came out.

"Taishou-sama!"

"Fang Yang's work can be regarded as the highest level work in Lingling County, why is this one in front of him? Although there is a certain charm, but if you look at his skills, he is obviously just a veteran, not a master. The actual value of this pair is only thirty taels. He painted Lianyue County Lord, there are more people who pat on the back, fifty taels is not an exaggeration!" Nangong Jie commented.

You must know that Yun Xian is only a halfway monk, and compared to those literary artists who paint all day long, he can only be regarded as a veteran who has practiced for three months.

How can this be compared with a person like Fang Yang, who works painting every day?

"The county lord sent it himself!" said the steward helplessly.

When Nangong Jie heard this, the corners of his mouth were slightly ashamed and said, "She painted it?"

"A guard by your side!"

"Don't lower the taste of the Sword Immortal Residence, withdraw!"

"This" and that steward are a little embarrassed.

Taishou is not afraid of the county lord, but the Sword Immortal Residence has to be afraid of those in power, especially since this person in power is still the famous cold moon county lord.

"That's it! Since it was sent by the county lord himself, then I will buy it for one hundred taels, don't say that I know that she personally sent it!"

When the middle-aged man in charge heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, so it was the best.

"Thank you Taishou!"

Nangong Jie shook his head and said, "This is respect for art!"

However, just then, a female warrior hurried in.

"Whew! It's good to be in time!Lord Taishou!" The female warrior saluted Nangong Jie.

Nangong Jie nodded slightly, not knowing her. Looking at her dress, it is obvious that she is a member of the family.

Immediately, the female warrior directly handed the two thousand four hundred taels of silver ticket to the steward and said, "Two thousand four hundred taels, buy it! You wait for someone to send two thousand taels to the county lord's mansion!"

Suddenly, the middle-aged man in charge was stunned and said in surprise: "It was sent by your county lord!

"You don't care about this, let you earn four hundred taels for nothing, can't you?"

"Yes!" the steward hurriedly ordered someone to take down Yun Xian's picture scroll, pack it up and hand it to the female warrior. The female warrior didn't say anything, took the scroll and walked away.

"Mischievous" Nangong Jie shook his head with a smile, and everyone just regarded this incident as a farce, and didn't care about anything.

In the courtyard of the county lord in the inner cloister of the house.

At this time, a man and a woman danced in a row, and the movements were consistent, which can be described as uniform. It's like dancing, and it's pretty beautiful.

Especially when the two of them are surrounded by purple clouds!

"Ah wolf, you work hard, and in terms of familiarity with the moves, you have improved very quickly!"

"It's thanks to the county lord's guidance!"

"Where!"

At this moment, a maid reported at the door: "County Lord, the people from the Sword Immortal Residence have come to find Mr. Wu Greedy Wolf!"

Lian Yue'er pretended to be surprised: "Ah wolf, your work has been sold." Hee-hee, I'm sorry, I want to get your first piece for sale first!"

"It's very good to be able to sell for twenty taels!" Yun Xian smiled dumbly.

Lian Yue'er smiled and said, "Be confident in yourself!"

In the outer corridor, Lian Yue'er walked out of Lian's house with four maids and four guards.

"Mr. Wu, this is the revenge of two thousand taels of your 'Moon God Diagram' work!"

Suddenly, including the maids and maids, they all looked at Yun Xian in surprise.

"Two thousand taels, Wu Guards are actually masters of painting?" Several maids looked at Yun Xian with adoring eyes.

The guards in the same class as Yun Xian also looked at Yun Xian in surprise and said, "Brother Wu, I didn't expect you to be an artistic genius!

"Haha, I saw it right, Brother Wu has a literati temperament. It's a literati!"

Yun Xian looked ashamed, this is really ashamed. Comparing his own works with the works put out by Sword Immortal Residence, it is easy for him to find the gap. However, this price is not worthy of the name, and it is obvious that Lian Yue'er secretly helped herself.

Lian Yue'er looked at Yun Xian with a satisfied expression, and said lightly: "I didn't expect such a literati among my guards, I'm very happy!"

When Yun Xian and Lian Yue'er looked at each other, Lian Yue'er secretly winked at Yun Xian.

After the shift change, Yun Xian returned to the secret room. Soon, Lian Yue'er came over alone.

"Hee-hee, wolf, be confident! Tsk, two thousand taels!

"I'm still missing you 100,000 taels!" Yun Xian said dumbly.

"Why do you remember to be so clear?" Lian Yue'er laughed and said, "Just invite me to a meal!"

"Okay!

"It's in the secret room, I'll order someone to prepare wine and food!" Lian Yue'er looked at Yun Xian with a smile.

"Secret room!" Shenyu snorted in disdain.

Yun Xian looked at Lian Yue'er's expression and had a premonition that something was about to happen.

Yun Xian hurriedly said: "Let's go out, I still have to buy wolf teeth and half-moon stunts! Besides, didn't I invite you?"

Soul-level stunts, wolf fangs and half-moon slashes, Yun Xian hasn't learned one yet. The Thirteen Divine Skills are a must-learn, even at the peak of the Cloud Spirit level now.

"I'm asking you to ask for the same? That's it! I'm too lazy to go out, I'll ask someone to buy it for you and send it over!"

Lian Yue'er had an irrefutable tone, took the silver ticket of two thousand taels in Yun Xian's hand and went out.

Looking at Lian Yue'er's back, Yun Xian secretly swallowed his saliva, couldn't hide?
