Chapter 11: Transcription
In the advice of his parents at home to 'learn his skills hard' and 'don't cause trouble', Ding Qi left the small mountain village again with his second uncle.
In the carriage, Ding Shan talked to him about being an apprentice.
Unexpectedly, the job that Ding Shan arranged for him was a little different from what Ding Qi expected.
Ding Qi learned that his apprenticeship job was actually related to the Qingyun faction. Specifically, it is to help take care of a sect's property.
During the half-day conversation, Ding Qi also knew more details.
It turned out that due to the recent period, Ding Shan was favored by the big people in the sect, and his position was promoted one after another, and the power in his hands also increased. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ding Shan got him a good job.
This errand is to work as a deputy for an outer door walker. If he does well enough, he will be able to take charge of himself after a few years, and if he is lucky, the sect will hand over a piece of the outer door industry to him to take care of alone and become the shopkeeper. Many sects have relationships with the outer door, and they all started from the position of deputy back then.
It's much better to be a decent businessman than to be an apprentice and learn a trade. Even, after having his own way and contacts in business, Ding Qi can completely leave the relationship with the Qingyun faction and make his own independent door.
Although walking outside the door is a position in the Qingyun faction, in essence, it does not have a deep relationship with the Qingyun faction. Speaking of which, it's more like a professional shopkeeper hired by the Qingyun faction to take care of his own industry.
After many people have their own business channels, they will quit their identity as walking outside the door, open their own doors, and do business.
What Ding Shan arranged for him was exactly such a way out. For ordinary mountain people, this is already an extremely rare big deal.
From the second uncle, Ding Qi also knew that the place where he was going to be his deputy was not in Liangcheng. Although they are not in Liangcheng, the two of them still have to go to this city once. Because of his deputy's job, he had to go to Liangcheng to go through some formalities.
This is not the first time Ding Qi has gone to Liangcheng, and the novelty on the road has faded a lot. After half a day's journey, he was already drowsy. Fortunately, when he felt like he was going to fall asleep, he finally arrived in Liangcheng.
The formalities required someone from the Qingyun faction to come, and from the second uncle, Ding Qi knew that it would take a few days before someone from the Qingyun faction could come over. In this case, it is exactly what he wants. He also needed a few days to go to the weapon shop in Liangcheng and choose the martial arts that suited him.
For the next few days, Ding Qi would run to the armory shop every day and spend most of the day inside.
This time, Ding Qi did not rush to buy the exercise cheats, but first picked out the exercises that met his requirements, and memorized the cultivation methods recorded in them.
There are nearly ten cheats that meet Ding Qi's requirements, and although these exercise cheats are not thick, it is naturally impossible to memorize them all.
In fact, Ding Qi only memorized the first part of these exercises.
His idea is very simple, as long as he memorizes the first part and cultivates according to the above method, and then according to the qualification descriptions in each book, according to his own cultivation, he can judge whether he is suitable for cultivating this kind of exercise. After you find the exercises that really suit you, you can come to Liangcheng and buy them.
Otherwise, if you really want to buy all these nearly ten cultivation exercises, it will be a lot of money. Ding Qi is not willing to spend so much unjust money.
The fat boss of the weapon shop, seeing that Ding Qi only looked at it and didn't buy it, quickly understood his careful thoughts. In the past few days, every time I see Ding Qi, I have a black face. If it weren't for Ding Shan's relationship, Ding Qi would have been blasted out a long time ago.
Regarding the fat boss's ugly expression, Ding Qi only thought that he didn't see it. Anyway, he has already made up his mind, as long as the fat boss doesn't really hit people,
And he kept on reciting it.
Today, as he did the other day, Ding Qi stayed in the weapons shop until near evening.
As soon as he returned to the courtyard behind the blacksmith's shop, Ding Qi immediately went into his room, picked up pen and ink, and wrote something in the room.
"Alright. Ding Qi looked at the content recorded on the paper and nodded with satisfaction.
What is recorded on this is the content of the exercises he memorized in the weapons shop today.
Nearly ten books, even if it is only a part of the beginning, for Ding Qi, it is really not a little. In order to prevent forgetting in the future, whenever he comes back these days, he will record all the content he has memorized.
Later, Ding Qi rechecked the content on the paper and the memory in his mind, and after making sure that there were no mistakes, he carefully put away the content of the transcription, and went to sleep with peace of mind.
After a few days of memorization, Ding Qi has almost memorized all the kung fu he needs. By the next day, it took him another half a day to finally memorize everything and transcribe it. The person in charge of the formalities of the Qingyun faction also arrived in the afternoon and completed the handover work.
The one who came to Liangcheng to go through the formalities was a deacon of the Qingyun faction. Unlike the respectful attitude of receiving Deacon Li on the previous two occasions, Ding Shan's attitude towards this deacon this time was quite flat. On the contrary, it was this deacon who was extremely respectful to Ding Shan. This made Ding Qi really feel that his second uncle's status in the sect had indeed been greatly improved. At the very least, the status is already above the deacons of the sect.
Although Ding Shan won him a job as a deputy walking at the outer door, he did not determine the specific location. This time, the people from the Qingyun faction came, in addition to going through the relevant procedures, they also brought news about where Ding Qi was going.
According to the introduction of Deacon Qingyunmen, he was going to an industry in Qixia Town this time to help take care of the medicine garden.
As you can hear from the name, Qixia Town has a relationship with the Qixia Mountain, which is the largest mountain in the vicinity for hundreds of miles. In fact, it is exactly what it is. Qixia Town is located near Qixia Mountain, which is a large town that plays the role of connecting various mountain villages and Liangcheng near the mountain. Judging from the distance, it is probably in the middle of Zhangjiaao Haoliang City.
As an important transportation hub, Qingyunpai also has several industries there, and this medicine garden is undoubtedly one of them.
Ding Shan heard that the place Ding Qi was going to was the medicine garden in Qixia Town, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.
"It turned out to be there, and I used to be in charge of the old Li Tou who was in charge of the medicine garden, but I am very familiar with it, and I can be regarded as an old friend. If you had gone there some time ago, I would have asked him to help take care of you. However, at this time, the deployment of personnel from the sect is very frequent, and it is really a pity that the person in charge of the medicine garden is no longer Lao Litou. ”
After the deacon of the Qingyun faction left, Ding Shan said helplessly.
If the person in charge of the medicine garden is an acquaintance of Ding Shan, Ding Qi will take care of him in all aspects when he goes there. Now that the medicine garden is replaced, there will be no such convenience.
But soon, Ding Shan changed a smile on his face and said, "I also know the general situation of taking care of the work of the medicine garden." Among all the industries of the sect, although it is not the easiest type, it is not hard either. Before, I was worried that the task assigned by the sect was too heavy, but since it was the work of taking care of the medicine garden, I was relieved. When you get there, you just need to listen carefully to the words of the medicine garden master and learn the skills of taking care of the medicine garden. In a few years, you may be able to take charge on your own. ”
"Since this work won't be too busy, it shouldn't prevent me from practicing kung fu. ”
Ding Qi thought with peace of mind.
As for whether his future job will affect his practice of kung fu, Ding Qi has always been quite concerned. Now that I heard the general situation from the second uncle, I can finally feel at ease.
Next, Ding Shan introduced to him some of the content of taking care of the medicine garden that he knew, because Ding Shan had not taken over this kind of work before, the content was not too specific. But even so, it gave Ding Qi a general understanding of his future work.
It wasn't until the evening that Ding Shan finished introducing what he knew, and told Ding Qi that he would take him to Qixia Town tomorrow.
In the past few days of waiting for the formalities, Ding Qi has already prepared for the trip, so there is no need to delay the effort to pack his things.
On the second day, Ding Shan took him towards Qixia Town.
