Chapter 52 Wealth and I are like floating clouds, and a gentleman loves money, benevolence, righteousness, and faith
After entering the main hall of Kunlun Immortal Ruins, Ye Haotian first looked up at the red cloth several zhang long hanging from the beam, but saw that there was an extra line of words at the end of the red cloth: "There are lion and leopard battle armor and tiger shark battle armor, please go to the weapons trading hall to trade." ”
Qu Yuan also saw the line of words, and said with a smile: "Little brother is lucky, I thought you couldn't buy a good battle armor, but I didn't expect you to have a smooth ride wherever you go." Go in. I won't go in, lest people say that I interfere in the transaction as the head of Kunlun. ”
Ye Haotian hurriedly said "Okay", and then led Shao Kang and Lan'er to the weapons trading hall quickly, and asked the old man who managed the trading hall, "Where is the person who sells the waterproof armor?"
The old man invited them to a nearby room and said, "Wait a moment, the man will come in a moment." Then he turned and walked out, closing the door with his hand.
Shaokang found a chair by the door and sat down, and then said: "I have always rarely entered the trading hall, and I always thought that these people who were trading were not on the right path of cultivating immortals. I think that cultivating immortals should concentrate on cultivation, how can I trade the Divine Pill with the Buddha's heart?"
Ye Haotian glanced at him with a smile and said, "It is the general trend for immortals to make transactions. If the whole world wants to develop rapidly, there must be a division of labor and cooperation, and only the division of labor can strive for excellence. Allowing trading is beneficial for the improvement of the overall level of the immortals. ”
Shao Kang nodded involuntarily when he heard this, pondered every word he said a few times, and then said, "It seems that I am going to change my concept as well." Now that I think about it, the reason for my slow progress in cultivating Shengong in the past few years may be related to the lack of communication. If I can buy some elixirs or auxiliary exercises, maybe I'll have cultivated to the Jade Qing Realm by now. ”
Ye Haotian said with a smile: "Big brother is right, no matter what you do, you should find a way to communicate with people more, and only through communication can you get new ideas." You can't just do it behind closed doors. Speaking of this, he turned to Lan'er and said, "Help me count how many Divine Pill Coins I still have." After listening to my eldest brother's words, I suddenly wanted to change my career to business. Do you think this will work? I'll buy more things here, and then take them to Tianshiyuan to sell, maybe I can make a lot of money from them, and then use the money I earn to buy elixir, and with the elixir, I can hatch phoenix eggs, haha!
Lan'er looked at his excited demeanor with a smile, pursed her lips, and said, "I think Childe is becoming more and more like a businessman." Confucianism has never advocated business, so how can you be a Confucian immortal if you speculate like this?"
Ye Haotian smiled and said, "Who told you that Confucianism can't do business?"
Lan'er blurted out: "The Confucian scholars I have seen are either high-ranking officials and nobles, or poor and talented, but I rarely see Confucian scholars doing business. ”
Ye Haotian waved his hand and said: "The phenomenon you said does exist, but it does not mean that Confucianism is not good at business. There is a cloud in the Analects: "Rich and rich can be sought, even if the whip is a man, I will also do it." 'Confucianism and business are not contradictory, the two can be combined, 'good Jia He negative Confucianism'. If you integrate Confucian morality into business, pay equal attention to honesty and trustworthiness, pay equal attention to life and business, and do business with the pursuit of being a person, then it is 'Confucian business'. The Confucian immortals I want to be are immortals who are 'Confucian and business', so that I can be different!"
Lan'er listened to her heart, and said with bright eyes: "What Gongzi said seems to be good, I heard my father say that in recent years, there are a group of businessmen from Huizhou and Anqing, known as 'Huizhou businessmen', they clearly put forward the concept of Confucianism in business, pay attention to keeping promises, honesty and not deception, and implement the Confucian principles such as honesty, trust, righteousness, forgiveness, and let go into business. I think they're a good idea, but it seems hard to really do it. Think about it, can we resist the almost instinctive desire of human beings by relying only on moral self-discipline?"
Ye Haotian nodded when he heard this, lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Actually, this is the essence of the spirit of Confucianism. Confucianism emphasizes self-discipline and emphasizes the use of moral force to maintain social order, allowing people to pursue a kind of spiritual self-consciousness ......" Before he finished speaking, suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.
Shaokang stepped forward to open the door, but saw a thin middle-aged man standing outside, kind and amiable, and the laughter came before he could open his mouth: "The three immortals are good, I heard that you need high-grade waterproof armor, I just have a few sets here, and I specially brought them to you to see." ”
Ye Haotian hurriedly said: "Please come in, Immortal Chief's surname?"
The man bowed and bowed, and walked in, and said at the same time: "Don't dare, my surname is Ximen, the name is Leopard, and it is the charge d'affaires of the Ximen family in Kunlun Ruins, which specializes in making waterproof armor, and our shop here will open soon, and I will invite you to cheer you up at that time." Speaking of this, he patted the backpack he was carrying and said, "The waterproof armor made by this door has been famous for a long time, and it is now firmly in the top spot in the manufacture and sale of this kind of armor. If you want to buy a waterproof armor, you must take a good look at our products. ”
Ye Haotian perked up when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, could you please briefly introduce what products you have, and what are the effects?"
Simon Leopard slowly opened his rucksack, took out two thin sets of armor, laid them flat on the only table in the room, and then introduced: "We have all three types of waterproof armor that are popular today, including dragon and crocodile armor made of dragon skin, tiger shark armor made of shark skin, lion and leopard armor made of seal skin, in addition to the recently developed turtle armor made of turtle shells. It's a pity that I only have the Tiger Shark Warframe and the Lion Leopard Warframe here, and the other two are temporarily out of stock. ”
Ye Haotian touched the soft battle armor and asked, "How deep can the several battle armors made by your sect enter the seabed?
Ximen Leopard smiled: "Immortals, don't worry, every kind of battle armor we make will go through repeated trials, and someone will specifically test the quality and efficacy of the battle armor." Among the four types of armor, the lion and leopard armor and the tiger shark armor are relatively thin, which can withstand water pressure of 1,000 zhang and 3,000 zhang respectively, and the dragon crocodile armor is thicker and can withstand water pressure 8,000 zhang deep. The most powerful is the Divine Turtle Battle Armor, according to the existing test data, this kind of Battle Armor can withstand at least 15,000 zhang deep water pressure, as for whether it can withstand deeper water pressure, it has not been tested, because generally speaking, 10,000 zhang deep should be enough. ”
Ye Haotian pondered for a while and said, "I don't know how deep the place I'm going to be, it may be 50,000 zhang deep, I don't know if your sect has a battle armor that can withstand the water pressure at a depth of 50,000 zhang?"
Ximen Leopard was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head helplessly: "In addition to the Black Emperor's Hades Pool battle armor is said to be able to withstand water pressure 100,000 zhang deep, even the battle armor of the three marshals under his sect can only withstand 20,000 zhang deep water pressure. The Divine Tortoise Battle Armor made by this Gate is close to or even reaches the level of the battle armor worn by the three major marshals, and if the Immortals are still not satisfied, we have no choice. ”
Ye Haotian frowned and said, "Is it possible for your sect to help me develop a battle armor that can withstand deeper water pressure in a short period of time?"
Ximen Leopard shook his head and said: "Impossible, it will take at least hundreds of years to develop a new battle armor, and the process is extremely complicated, and it will take thousands of experiments to do." Products that have not been adequately inspected cannot be sold. 'Honesty and reliability' is the principle of this door, and we don't want to smash our own brand. ”
Ye Haotian glanced at Lan'er and said in his heart: "I just mentioned Confucian merchants, isn't this person in front of you a representative of Confucian merchants? I don't know if he has anything to do with Confucianism." The thoughts just flashed through his head and then quickly faded away. He said a little helplessly: "It seems that I have to buy the dragon crocodile battle armor and the turtle battle armor first, but you don't have it here, I don't know where to buy it?"
Ximen Leopard hurriedly said: "Shangxian can go to Tianshiyuan to buy, the main store of this gate is opened there, and there must be a spot supply there." It's just that I want to remind you: the Divine Tortoise Battle Armor is expensive, and a set sells for 400 million Divine Pill Coins!"
Lan'er stuck out her tongue in surprise and said, "It's so expensive! It seems that your family is going to get rich." ”
Ximen Leopard bowed down and said: "Shangxian doesn't know, the battle armor of this sect seems to be very expensive, but in fact, it doesn't make much money. Because the cost of developing a new Warframe Flower is too great. Not to mention the energy and material consumption spent on research and development, just after the production is made, the quality inspection will have to risk some people's lives into the extremely deep seabed, and if they do not get it right, they will not be able to come back. In the past, we lost three people to test the dragon crocodile armor......"
Ye Haotian was moved by what he said, and clapped his hands and praised: "A merchant like Guimen who pays attention to honesty should sell it more expensive! 400 million Shendan coins are no problem, I will definitely go and buy it!"
After Ximen Leopard left, Lan'er sighed: "It seems that Confucian merchants may have really appeared, but I don't know who the representative figure is?"
Ye Haotian thought for a while and said, "There are several famous figures among the Confucian merchants, namely Fan Li, Ji Ran, Xiangao and Bai Gui. Fan Li is a household name, so we won't talk about it, the story of the string master is also famous, and Bai Gui is the originator of trade and a well-known figure. The other person's name is Ji Ran, do you know who Ji Ran is?" After speaking, he looked at Lan'er with a smile, wanting to appreciate her embarrassed appearance.
Unexpectedly, Lan'er blurted out: "Ji Ran, surnamed Xin, named Wenzi, known as the third son of Jin, is erudite and knows everything." When he traveled to Haize, he was called 'Fisherman'. Fan Li knows his sage, humble things, please accept the Tao, hide in the stone room, is the punishment of the white sandpiper and the alliance. This question doesn't bother me, Ji Ran is Fan Li's master!" After speaking, he looked at Ye Haotian with a fluttering eyebrow, waiting to see his reaction.
Ye Haotian was really taken aback, and immediately said in an extremely exaggerated tone: "The lady knows everything, knows everything, Xiaosheng admires it so much! However, how do you know the name of Ji Ran?"
Lan'er stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and said proudly: "Isn't it because of Fan Li? As long as it's related to Shih Tzu, there's nothing I don't know. ”
Ye Haotian rarely saw her triumphant, and deliberately embarrassed her: "'Others don't know the meaning of Bian Zhou, but they laugh and die in the five lakes. "Where did you say Fan Li took Xi Shi in the end?"
Lan'er frowned when she heard this, and said, "This question is so difficult to answer, there have always been different opinions, and no one knows where they went. Some people say that Xi Shi sank into the lake and died, some people say that they went to the country of Qi, and some people say that they reached the Dongting Lake for 800 miles...... God knows where it went?"
Ye Haotian was happy for a moment when he saw that he had finally stumped her, and said nonsense: "I'll tell you a story." It is said that after Fan Li left, someone reported that King Yue was gone, gone! King Yue changed color in vain, and summoned the doctor Wen Chong to ask, 'Can you still chase it back?' and replied, "It's not enough." The king of Yue asked, 'Why?' and replied: 'When Li is gone, the six yangs are clearly painted, and the gods cannot control it. Xuanwu sky, the line is unscrupulous, who dares to stop? The five levels, the beam of the sky, can't be seen, how can you catch up!'So, according to my judgment, in the end, Fan Li became an immortal, and he flew up with Xi Shi!"
Lan'er was full of joy when she heard his nonsense, her eyes were full of joy, and she clapped her hands and said: "That's better, I like this ending! Speaking of this, she looked at Ye Haotian and said softly: "Among the four Confucian businessmen above, which one does Gongzi like the most?"
Ye Haotian thought for a while and said, "These people are all great, but I, like you, prefer Fan Li relatively speaking." Maybe it's because he has a great love. And there is. I like the way he handles money. Fan Li can gather wealth, but he does not value money, and when necessary, he can even give up all wealth and glory, he is the most generous Confucian businessman. ”
Lan'er looked at him with a confused gaze, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "I think Gongzi is not much better than Fan Li, isn't the wealth gathered by Gongzi also distributed to others? The speed of accumulating wealth is only faster than Fan Li, right? Gongzi can even break through the Kunlun Seven Levels, and his wisdom is not inferior to him; The most rare thing is the tenderness of the son, I am afraid that it is even higher than Fan Li, at least you will not be willing to give me to King Wu. The only difference is probably that my appearance is far inferior to Xi Shi. ”
Ye Haotian's ears kept coming from the soft Wu language, and he smelled the wisps of fragrance like an orchid in his nose, and he was confused for a while, and couldn't help but shout: "Lan'er is much more beautiful than Xi Shi, how old is Xi Shi?"
As soon as the words fell, I suddenly heard a soft hum from nowhere, the voice was very dissatisfied, but more sad, and a few lines of poetry were sung in a low voice: "When the swallow returned to the nest was not timed, the village man hesitated and got drunk." Pink flowers become scoundrels, and they are silently resentful. A few desires are empty of tears, and the five more wind and rain bury Xi Shi. Kuang bed self-sleeping Qing painting, a wisp of tea smoke raised sideburns...... "The voice gradually drifted away, lower and lower, and finally it was far away.
As soon as the words started, Shaokang jumped out of the door with a "poof", wanting to see who was speaking. He listened to the sound and looked around, but what he saw was a bustling crowd of people, shuttling back and forth, rubbing shoulders one after another, and he really couldn't make out where the sound came from.
Ye Haotian and Lan'er looked at each other and were stunned for a moment.
Lan'er gently covered Ye Haotian's mouth with a jade hand, and said with affection: "Silly brother, if you like Lan'er, you don't have to belittle others, it's good, offend people." ”
Ye Haotian kept thinking about the man's words: "I want to cry in the air, and the five watches are buried in the wind and rain...... Who is this man? How could he bury Xi Shi on a stormy night? How did Xi Shi die?" his heart fluctuated, and for a moment his thoughts flowed back to him.
After a while, Shaokang came back, shook his head at Ye Haotian and said, "The person who spoke may not be in the main hall, he probably used the kung fu of hearing from heaven to earth and transmitting sound for thousands of miles, and he has already gone far away at this moment." ”
Ye Haotian shook his head vigorously, trying to bring himself back to his senses, and sighed and said: "Forget it, if you lose your words for a while, it's too late to regret it, and you can only apologize when you see people in the future." Let's go, let's go buy something to take with us, and get out of here. ”
When he got out of the room, he didn't see Qu Yuan's figure, probably as the chief manager, he was busy with something.
Ye Haotian concentrated his skills on the Tongling Jade on his chest and walked down the shops. Lan'er took his arm and walked beside him, while Shaokang followed from a distance behind.
The time was not big, Ye Haotian bought more than 20 kinds of inconspicuous medicinal materials under the guidance of Baoyu, more than a dozen unnamed swords, and only spent a total of 50 million Divine Pill coins. He smiled and said to Lan'er: "We still have at least 800 million Divine Pill coins, I wanted to spend half of them here, but it seems that it is difficult to spend them?"
Lan'er glanced at him and said with a smile: "That's because Gongzi is too cunning, taking advantage of others everywhere, and he doesn't have the appearance of being an honest Confucian businessman." ”
Ye Haotian deliberately puffed up and said: "Okay, say that I am a merchant of annihilation, you have to explain clearly, where is my cunning?
Lan'er didn't back down, and said with a smile on her face: "The things you bought are obviously of the highest grade, but they only offer a very low price, and you are looking forward to reselling them to make a lot of money, isn't this a merchant?"
Ye Haotian shook the sword he had just bought, and said in a heartfelt manner: "You are wrong, the value of an item is not fixed, it is only valuable to those who need it." For example, for this sword, I only gave out 200,000 Divine Pill Coins, but the person who sold the sword was already very happy, because he may have only spent 100,000 Divine Pill Coin when he bought it. You see, this sword has both earth and gold surnames, and the person who holds the sword must have the magic skills of both the Yellow Emperor and the White Emperor in order to give full play to the effectiveness of the sword. If the sword-wielder only knows one of these skills, he will find that this sword is not as good as a kitchen knife. Because of this, such a beautiful sword could only be sold for 200,000 Divine Pill coins in the hands of the person just now!"
Lan'er listened to him talk non-stop, and deliberately made fun of him: "Gongzi is not a businessman, just a more greedy Bole." ”
Ye Haotian made her cry and laugh, opened her mouth and didn't speak, and said after holding back for a long time: "I'm reintegrating the resources of Heavenly Court, this is turning waste into treasure! The money earned is of great use! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, little girl!"
Lan'er looked at him as if he was a little anxious, and hurriedly smiled: "Well, how can the son's grand plan be understood by the servant?
Ye Haotian didn't really want to think about it, and after hearing this, he continued to walk forward, looking for treasures that could be purchased. They wandered around for a whole day, spent 280 million Divine Pill Coins, and then couldn't find anything suitable. The rest were either not of sufficient grade or the price was too high, so they had to give up.
The two of them had been thinking with relish about how to make a fortune in Tianshiyuan, but when they looked back at Shaokang, they saw that he had already walked dizzily and didn't know what to do.
Ye Haotian stopped and waited for Shaokang to approach, and then asked, "Big brother, you're tired!"
At this time, Shaokang opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother, how is it about you using the magic mirror to observe the whereabouts of your father?"
Ye Haotian was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly brought his eyes closer to the Qiankun Treasure Bag to inspect the operation of the turtle mirror, and found that the turtle mirror was still spinning, and the mirror was displayed: "I have checked all the Yin Cao Underworld, Hungry Ghost Dao, Livestock Dao, Shura Dao, Humanity and the True Human World, and it is certain that Dayu and Guiguzi are not under the fairy world." At present, the Immortal Realm and the Divine Realm are being investigated, and the difficulty is getting higher and higher. Positionally, I've searched the surrounding 300,000 light-years and found no shadow of them. ”
Ye Haotian put a few more lapis lazuli stones on the turtle mirror, and shouted in surprise: "Big brother, Ling Zun may still be alive!" and then told Shaokang about the results displayed in the turtle mirror.
Shaokang had tears in his eyes and said very excitedly: "I know...... He must still be alive......"
Ye Haotian comforted him and said: "Don't worry, we will have accurate results in a few days, let's go, first go to Tianshiyuan to buy the Divine Tortoise Battle Armor, and then go to the sea to hunt for treasures." ”
Shaokang nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, everything is arranged by my brother, and I will always follow you." ”
※※※
The protection of Kunlun Wonderland is very tight, and there are strict restrictions on the entry and exit of the immortals. It's hard to say that it's hard to get in, and it's not easy to get out.
There are two ways to get out, one is to cultivate to the fourth level of the divine realm, and then easily leave through the ladder of heaven, and the other is that no matter how much you cultivate, you can't reach that heavy realm, so you can only work hard to break out from the four portals of east, south, west, and north as you came.
Ye Haotian already had the Immortal Token to pass through the Kunlun Immortal Realm, and he had already cultivated to the thirty-second heaven, so for him, every portal could be unimpeded. However, in order to increase his knowledge, he still chose to leave through the ladder.
At the moment, Shaokang led the way in front, Ye Haotian and Lan'er followed, and the three of them flew out of Kunlun Ruins to Langfeng Peak.
Just walked a short distance, suddenly someone spoke behind him: "Three of you, please wait a minute, where are you going?"
When Ye Haotian looked back, he found that it was Qu Yuan who rushed over, so he quickly stopped and arched his hand: "Mr. Qu, we are leaving, I was about to say goodbye to you, but I didn't find you just now." ”
Qu Yuan said with some regret: "Why do you go so fast? There are still a lot of interesting places in Kunlun Mountain." ”
Ye Haotian said apologetically: "No way, I have something to do, so I have to go." Fortunately, we will be back in the middle of the day, and I hope to see you then. ”
Qu Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, there is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, let me give you a ride." As he spoke, he flew in front of Ye Haotian and Lan'er, and led the way with Shaokang.
Located on the top of the Cool Breeze Mountain, Langfeng Peak is a circular palace with a diameter of miles, which looks like a huge mushroom from a distance.
Qu Yuan stood outside the hall and introduced to the three of them: "This palace is the heavenly ladder of Kunlun Fairyland, which was designed and built by the Queen Mother 50,000 years ago by gathering many skilled craftsmen from the Heavenly Realm, and it took two hundred years to build. ”
Lan'er looked at the huge palace in front of her and exclaimed: "I originally thought that the ladder was a huge stone formation formed naturally, but I didn't expect it to be an artificially built palace! ”
Qu Yuan nodded heavily and said, "Yes, since the Heavenly Ladder was built, it has been much more convenient for local immortals to enter the Heavenly Court. Originally, only those who had cultivated to the thirty-three heavens, that is, the three clear heavenly gods, could enter the heavenly realm with their own strength. However, after having the Heavenly Ladder, you only need to cultivate to the thirty-second heaven. Don't look at the fact that there is only such a single realm, it will take three or four thousand years to cultivate. Three or four thousand years is not a small number! How much hardship and how much sweat will be endured in it! It is precisely because of the existence of this ladder that the immortals of the ten continents and three islands finally gathered in Kunlun Mountain, and it has also caused the local immortals to occupy a fairly high proportion in the heavenly court. ”
Ye Haotian said with great admiration: "The queen mother is really meritorious!
As he spoke, Qu Yuan led the three of them into the main hall and first came to the ladder management hall.
The administrators sent each of them a form asking for their name, their state of practice, and where they were going.
Ye Haotian filled in the "Shenzhou Zi", with thirty-two skills, and the destination was Tianshiyuan. Shaokang filled in "Yuzi", with thirty-four skills, and Lan'er filled in his real name, but he refused to put pen to paper in the skill column. Because according to the regulations, only those who have cultivated to the thirty-second level or more can use the ladder, and those who are thirty-fold cannot withstand the pressure of the ladder transmission. After thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't help but sigh, put the form away, and then floated into the Qiankun bag.
Ye Haotian and Shaokang handed the form to the administrator.
After receiving the form, the other party said, "Please use the No. C ladder to go to Tianshiyuan." Then he sent each of them a piece of information, mainly on the matters they should pay attention to after entering the Heavenly Realm, the locations of the major branches of the Heavenly Court, and how to ask for help in a critical situation. There is another sentence at the end: "The Queen Mother wishes you all a happy journey to the immortals!"
There was also a notice posted on the wall of the management hall: "In order to strengthen the communication between the Kunlun Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm, all expenses for the use of the Heavenly Ladder by the immortals are hereby cancelled, and the required expenses are borne by the Queen Mother alone." ”
Ye Haotian walked forward while admiring.
Further from the ladder preparation hall is a long road, zigzag and unclear.
Qu Yuan stood in front of a corridor marked with the word "C", and said with a smile: "I can only send it here, so I will enter the Heavenly Ladder Teleportation Array." I wish you all a smooth journey, a safe journey, and an early return. ”
Somehow, Ye Haotian suddenly had a feeling of leaving his hometown. He stepped forward and shook Qu Yuan's hand, and sighed: "Mr. is still smart, staying on Kunlun Mountain can reach the sky, and down to the five lakes and four seas, ten continents and three islands, come and go freely, what a leisure!"
After saying goodbye, he and Shaokang turned around and walked towards Yongdao.
The two of them zigzagged through the corridor for dozens of feet, and suddenly their eyes suddenly opened up and entered a spacious circular patio. There are dozens of stone piles two or three feet high in the courtyard, faintly arranged in a certain formation. In the middle of the patio is a small stone platform, next to which there are several very bulky stone chairs.
Shaokang took the lead and walked in, found a stone chair to sit down at random, and then slapped it on the stone chair next to him, and greeted Ye Haotian: "Brother, come quickly, listen to me this time! I have been here many times." ”
Ye Haotian responded: "Okay!" His eyes kept patrolling the stone bench on the ground, quickly remembering the direction of the stone array, and then walked into the formation and sat on the stone chair.
Shao Kang instructed him to tie a belt on the side of the stone chair to his waist, then took out a white stone ball and threw it into the small hole in the center of the stone platform, and said with a smile: "All the ladders consume energy stones, and the one I threw into it was the Liangyue Stone. After saying that, he pressed it again on a protrusion next to the small hole.
The time was not long, Ye Haotian felt that the entire patio was spinning, and the bulky stone chair also kept turning, and at the same time felt a thrust surging up from under his body.
Gradually, the patio rotated faster and faster, and the thrust under him became bigger and bigger, suddenly there was a burst of lightning and thunder, and before he knew it, the belt tied to his body suddenly fell off, and his body was thrown into the sky at once, instantly piercing through large dark clouds and white clouds, and quickly reached the top of the green clouds in a burning feeling, and then entered the vast space, and then flew forward with his habitual surname. Only then did he feel his body gradually cold.
Shao Kang, who was flying next to him, said: "If you follow this speed, it will take a year to reach Tianshiyuan. Since you haven't cultivated to the Sanqing Realm yet, you can't teleport, so let me help you. As he spoke, he pushed Ye Haotian on his back, suddenly doubling the speed of his flight.
Ye Haotian said with a smile: "It turns out that the ladder is like this, and I finally have gained knowledge." But we don't have to go through the trouble in the future. Seeing that the flying sail instantly grew to the size of several zhang, he flew down to the driver's seat and beckoned Shaokang to say: "Big brother, please sit down, let the little brother take you for a swim." ”
Shao Kang was overjoyed when he saw this, and said in a loud voice: "Brother has such a magic weapon, what kind of ladder do you use? This is one of the three major artifacts of Sky Flight! Brother spent a lot of Divine Pill coins, right?"
At this time, Lan'er had already appeared, sat on the seat next to Ye Haotian, and hurriedly replied: "It's not expensive, less than 100 million Divine Pill Coins." ”
Shaokang suddenly remembered something and asked, "Brother has a Sky Flying Sail, why don't you go and look for the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding directly?"
Ye Haotian waved his hand and said, "No, the skyline sail is still too slow." We have to find the top-of-the-line aircraft 'Hanhai Shenzhou'. The speed of Shenzhou is much faster than that of a flying sail, and it doesn't take half a month to fly to the edge of the sky. Big brother, don't worry, the so-called sharpening knife is not a mistake for woodcutters, and after we find Shenzhou, we can reach the place where the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding is located within a few hours. ”
Shaokang nodded and said, "Brother, strategizing to win a thousand miles, I listen to you." ”
Lan'er looked at the shining stars in front of her, turned her head and asked with a smile: "Big brother, what does Tianshiyuan look like? Isn't it similar to the capital? Tianshi is Tianshi, why do you need to add the word 'wall'?"
Shao Kang pointed with his hand in the direction of the North Pole and said, "All the stars in the universe are divided into three walls and twenty-eight nights. Sanyuan refers to the area around the North Pole and is divided into three areas: Ziweiyuan, Taiweiyuan, and Tianshiyuan. Among them, Ziweiyuan is in the middle, which is equivalent to the Forbidden City in Beijing, and the planet where the Jade Emperor is located is in the center of Ziweiyuan; Taiweiyuan is in the southwest of Ziweiyuan, Taiwei is the meaning of political axe, which is equivalent to the place where the imperial court departments are located; Tianshiyuan is in the southeast of Ziweiyuan, and the east of Taiweiyuan is the lower wall of the three walls. It is the heavenly market and the living area of the gods. ”
Lan'er was a little puzzled when she heard this, and asked, "In this way, Tianshiyuan should be the general name of many stars, so where are we going?"
Shao Kang said with a smile: "The main trading place of Tianshiyuan is concentrated on a planet called Tianjie, and this is where we are going. ”
Ye Haotian listened to their questions and answers, but what he was thinking about was whether he could buy a divine tortoise battle armor or a more powerful waterproof battle armor, so he asked: "Big brother, it is said that Tianshiyuan is the immortal trading center of the entire universe, and the goods are extremely rich, what do you want, right?"
Shaokang replied: "It's almost, as long as it is a commodity that can be bought in the world, it can be bought there." What you can't buy in the world, there's a lot of hope to buy there. The headquarters of all the major trading families in the United Kingdom are located there, and there are no less than hundreds of thousands of large and small trading families. To this end, Heavenly Court has also set up a wealth ranking list to count the wealth strength of the major families. The families within the top 100 all have a wealth of at least one trillion Divine Pill Coins. Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Our Daxiazhuang is far behind 100,000 on the wealth list! ”
Lan'er asked puzzledly, "What do the immortals want so much wealth for?"
Shaokang glanced at her and said, "There are many benefits." With wealth, you can initiate and create gods, and all the adults and children of your family can be promoted to masters in the god realm, but this kind of rapid creation of masters is easy to die; with wealth, you can buy elixirs to refine divine pills, which is suitable for people who cannot be empowered to continue to improve their skills; with wealth, you can buy all kinds of magic weapons to enhance the protection and attack strength of major families; with wealth, you can also hire people, and even form your own army......"
Lan'er was very disappointed when she heard this, and said: "I thought that immortals should be carefree, but I didn't expect that they would need to compete for fame and fortune so much." What is the difference between such an immortal cultivator and not cultivating?"
Ye Haotian sighed and said: "Comparatively speaking, immortals have a longer lifespan than ordinary people, have stronger abilities, have more knowledge, and have a relatively higher overall cultivation level. However, they are not completely free from selfish desires, so they also have different degrees of vices that ordinary people have. The whole world is one, and the immortals are nothing more than a continuation of ordinary people. Speaking of this, he turned his head and asked Shaokang: "Big brother, who are the top few people in the wealth list?"
When he mentioned this Shaokang, he was a little dissatisfied, and muttered: "It's those gods of wealth, Zhao Gongming, Bigan and the five-way god of wealth." They were originally compradors of the wealth of the heavenly court, and in the end, everyone made a lot of brains, so they were considered by the gods to be a typical example of collusion between officials and businessmen. ”
Lan'er was surprised: "Isn't there anyone who investigates their illegal acts?"
Shao Kang smiled bitterly: "Heavenly Court has also seriously checked a few times, but these people have a wide range of friends, and almost all the investigators are their acquaintances, what results do you say can be found? Besides, their accounts are clearly done, and they can't find out any mistakes at all, no matter how much they check, they can't find out." ”
Ye Haotian said: "Forget it, let's leave it alone." Corrupt officials and corrupt officials are everywhere, and as long as they do not reach the level of arousing public anger, no one will seriously investigate them. For this kind of thing, the Middle-earth court has always turned a blind eye. ”
Next, Shao Kang changed his very respectful tone and said: "However, the first place on the list is not the people above, but a person who calls himself 'Mr. Feng'. Many people have seen him, but no one knows his true origin; he quickly climbed to the top of the wealth rankings in just a hundred years, and then has never moved his position; it is impossible to count how much his wealth is, and it is said that a quarter of the merchants in the entire Tianshiyuan are his subordinates. What's even more amazing is that he has an excellent reputation, and no one doesn't praise him when it comes to him. Because he is different from the god of wealth like Zhao Gongming. Zhao Gongming and others only knew that they had a good relationship with dignitaries, but he had done countless good things for ordinary immortals. For example, the current Tianshiyuan is neat and orderly, and it was built by him. ”
Ye Haotian glanced at Lan'er beside him and said, "It seems that this is another rare Confucian businessman, I really want to have the opportunity to get acquainted." Speaking of this, he turned his head to Shaokang and said, "Big brother, it's better for you to sail." We don't know the way, so we might get lost. I also have to study the refining method of the Dragon Tiger Pill and the immortal elixir, and go back to buy some elixir and other alchemy pills when I have time. ”
At that moment, they changed seats, and Ye Haotian and Lan'er sat in the back row, whispering while enjoying the vast starry sky easily.
