Chapter 507 Two families

While Yuchen was communicating with County Magistrate Liu, the Changping Temple Master was also communicating with Yuchen in secret.

‘Fellow Taoist Yuchen, if you want to practice steadily, it is best to choose the second type, whether it is the first type or the third type, it is a pitfall for those who want to practice steadily.’

‘How do you say this?’

'Don't look at the fact that County Magistrate Liu respects you very much. In fact, the court has never trusted us immortal monks. Many of them still adhere to the contempt attitude of eighty years ago. Even if you join, you have to go through many trials. It was just one question to ask if you are willing to join, and these three tasks are another one.'

Pei Guanzhu's words were a little disdainful, and then he explained the reason in a tone of some envy and jealousy.

‘After all, many aristocratic families in the court do not want us to come in and get a share of the pie. After all, the court is in charge of humanitarian sacrifices. Every year, the power accumulated by the court can be enthroned in three or four fifth-rank spiritual categories under the original official system. If the cost is not taken, the court can even create a plural third-rank immortal god's character.'

‘How can we give these things to us if we don’t have enough separation between the aristocratic families and the clans themselves? As for the sixth-rank real person position mentioned by Liu County Magistrate, it is not only a false seal, but also a one-time transaction. After you receive the energy and power of your wishes, you will only have a name left.’

Yuchen was not surprised when he heard this. If the court gave the True Seal, he would have to doubt the other party's intentions. After all, if the True Seal, the court would need to spend an extra amount of energy and willingness every year. Even if the quantity was less than one percent of the condensed person, it would last forever and consume a lot of money.

Pei Guanzhu didn't care about Yuchen's thoughts. He continued: "If you choose the first type, in the eyes of this group of people, joining the court is just a temporary solution. If you are reluctant, you will inevitably make trouble on your fiefdom. The best ending is to guard the islands near the East Ocean or the wilderness near the South Ocean."

‘Most of these places have local forces. Although they were conquered by the court early, with the stalemate of the Western War over the years, some people have also become independent. Don’t think about developing there. Once the court’s eyewitnesses staying there will be noticed that something is wrong, they will use various reasons to move you to differentiate your sect.’

'If you choose the third type, you may have a good life in the first thirty years, but after thirty years, you will need to send a group of disciples to the front line every five years. It is said that it will be replaced every five years, but in fact, one hundred people who can come back will not be saved. In addition, most of the materials needed on the front line are special items, which is quite troublesome to cultivate, which is equivalent to chronic bloodletting.'

‘Thank you, fellow Taoist Pei, for reminding me, I will consider it carefully.’ Yuchen expressed his gratitude to Master Pei sincerely, because although the other party is a little selfish, overall, it is still fair.

If you choose the first type, you are easily regarded as a guy who comes to eat and drink. Naturally, no one is more than worthy of it. When you are targeted by internal forces in the court, no one is willing to pull it off.

If you choose the third type, it is probably the only way to truly join the imperial system, but it will inevitably take a long time of bloodletting during this period. It will be until the representatives of the aristocratic families above feel that you have been "hardened into a talent" and that you can be allowed to join the system.

During this period, there may be some people who "value" and give you "heavy responsibilities". As for whether these people make profits with your energy or really want to test you, it is hard to say.

In comparison, it is really the second type that is most suitable for Yuchen.

In addition to the responsibility of guarding one party, regularly sending disciples to complete some tasks represents a sense of willingness to obey the imperial court's instructions to a certain extent.

The most interesting thing is that County Magistrate Liu did not tell Yuchen what the mission was, nor did he say that he would go there. There are obviously many places that can be studied.

‘Perhaps the second task is the product of the compromise between the immortal and Buddha system and the imperial system in this special period.’

With this understanding, Yuchen naturally would not make other choices. After knowing Yuchen's decision, County Magistrate Liu's attitude did not change much. He just had a little indifferent attitude. He exchanged a few more words with Yuchen, saying that he would give him a reply within a month and a half, and then left decisively.

However, when leaving, County Magistrate Liu, whether intentionally or unintentionally, communicated with several juren from Yunyan County, and told them about Yuchen's choice and the future of the other party's about to leave the place.

Wang Juren, who stood behind many juren, frowned when he heard this, and then sighed. This is the trouble of ordinary small families. He does not have enough background. Many things only see the surface and do not know the inside story.

His son Wang Xiucai couldn't help but whisper his father: "Mr. Liu has left. Father, are we leaving too?"

"Wait a little longer." Wang Juren stood there, spoke softly, looking at the other old friends who were Juren, and no one stood up first.

But silence cannot last. A middle-aged juren sighed and took the lead in expressing his opinion: "Forget it! Forget it! My Ming family finally established a foundation in Yunyan County, and their descendants are still considered weapons, but they cannot give up this foundation for a possibility. Everyone, let's take a step first."

After saying that, the juren handed over his gift to the boy who was entertaining him and others, and after accusing him of guilt, he turned around and left.

The Ming family juren left and left with three or four people. They were either local landlords or both juren. In the end, only Wang Juren and another middle-aged man wearing gold and silver were left. He played with two body balls made of jade in his hands, looking quite wealthy.

"Brother Wang, won't you leave? Could it be that you want your Qiliner to enter the Tao?"

The middle-aged man looked at Wang Juren and glanced at the unhappy Xiucai behind him and vaguely guessed something, and deliberately made a serious appearance.

Upon hearing this, Wang Juren smiled and replied, "Brother Zhao is different and didn't leave? Compared to my Wang family, your Zhao family is considered prosperous, so why bother here?"

"Brother Wang, don't laugh at me. My Zhao family is now looking prosperous, but they are following the path of business. Except for the ancestor of the Tao Shang lineage, none of them have entered the fourth-grade spiritual category. Tao Zhu Gong himself did not enter the fourth-grade spiritual category through business."

"If we want to stand out in the business lineage, we either get close to Confucianism or turn into Confucianism, or turn into the divine way and condense the person of the God of Wealth."

The middle-aged man said, and the two jade protective balls in his hand kept turning, and the soundboard inside the ball sounded ringing sound as the ball turned, which was quite nice.

There was also a gathering of wealth and blocking the surroundings, making it impossible to hear the communication between the few people present.

"The Confucian and businessman's way is to establish oneself and establish others, and to achieve oneself and others, and seeking gains is super utilitarian; it is better to say that it is a variant of Confucianism than a merchant. My Zhao family is not as good as your Wang family, so there is no talented man who can read it into books. This path is broken."

"As for the way of the God of Wealth, there is no fate. The way of gods is similar to the official way. Not to mention the complex relationship, the entry level starts at the eighth grade. If you follow the right path, whether it is a civil and military man, a righteous king, or even a partial god of wealth, the wealth is far from being provided by extraordinary people. Even if my Zhao family cleans up the family's assets, they cannot raise an eighth grade god of wealth. At most, they can find a quasi-god god of wealth. However, this type of person was evolved from other immortals and gods part-time jobs, but not a real person. Taking this path is not much better than the business road."

"Although my Zhao family has some family background, the business position cannot be condensed by operating safely, and there are many of them that can be deceived. If I seek stability, I can make up my mind, abandon the current eighth-grade wealthy businessman's position, and give all the property in my hands to those two boys, which is enough for them to gather a ninth-grade rank. If they make a few mistakes, even the ninth-grade rank is hanging. How can I not worry?"

After hearing this, Wang Juren still didn't understand. The middle-aged man was actually persuading him. So far, there was no one in the Wang family who could support the business, and he himself did not have much lifespan now, so he must find a way out for his family.

However, the middle-aged man obviously had his own plan for persuading this. Wang Juren smiled and said, "Brother Zhao, you want to pull me into the group!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man did not deny it, laughed twice, and looked at Wang Juren and said, "Brother Wang is worthy of being a Juren. His mind is fast, and Lao Zhao, I will not lie to you. Today I stay here to bet on whether this Yuchen real person can succeed. As long as he accepts my funding and establishes a foundation, it will be a supplement to my business path, giving me the opportunity to break through the current boundaries and become a seventh-grade businessman."

"Even, the more powerful he is in the future, the more feedback I will receive. He is the only person and is expected to achieve the fifth grade. If he plans well, I may not be able to become a clever merchant who condenses the sixth grade spirit."

In the last sentence, the middle-aged man deliberately lowered his voice. During this period, the two jade bodyguard balls in his hand were even faster and hard to see clearly. The pleasant sound completely overwhelmed his voice. Even Wang Xiucai and Wang Yang, who were standing behind Wang Juren, could not hear a trace of it.

"You're so optimistic about him?"

The middle-aged man smiled without saying a word, but took out a handkerchief and spread it gently. Inside was a pair of crushed jade jewelry powder.

Wang Juren knew that this was one of the talents of wealthy businessmen. He was made by condensing wealth from gold, silver, jade, jewelry and other objects, and could predict the value of certain things.

It is broken like this at least, at least it proves that Yuchen's sixth-grade qualities are not very good, and Zhao Fushang is safe and sound, so obviously the other party has not pursued it.

‘Roughly speaking, this Taoist Yuchen is not a difficult person to serve. If you join the gang at this moment, you may not be able to make a future.’ Wang Juren turned his head and looked at Wang Xiucai and Wang Yang again.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately realized that the temperature was almost the same and immediately continued to persuade him.

After all, he was a talent who gathered the personality of the business lineage. Wang Juren was originally a little moved, and Wang Xiucai was just a little shaken, but the last group came to Yuchen together.

At this moment, both the host of Pu'an Temple and the owner of Changping Temple have left.

Yuchen only had two spirit beasts, white deer and seven-color deer. At this moment, he was slowly tempering a Ganoderma lucidum. When he saw a group of people entering, he smiled and said, "Do you have a decision?"

"A real person can achieve the sixth-grade unique real person status and is willing to guard one side. Obviously, a person with great compassion and great supernatural powers is lucky enough to see Zunyan, so he is naturally willing to contribute his strength." The middle-aged man said, taking out a wooden box from his sleeve and offering it to him.

Yu Chen didn't care about his strange descriptions and words. After he took the wooden box, he opened it directly, and placed it in a stack of silver notes inside. There was a faint gathering of wealth and the blessing of Shangyin. It was obviously made by a joint effort of a certain god of wealth and a wealthy businessman.

These silver notes can not only be exchanged for money or taken out separately, but are also treasures similar to talisman paper and have certain power.

As for the amount above, Wang Juren was secretly shocked, and his son Wang Xiucai even looked straight and said in his heart: "Everyone said that Zhao's family is rich, and he only saw it expensive today. The silver notes in this wooden box are enough to buy most of my Wang family."

Yuchen didn't care about this money. He looked at the middle-aged man in the Zhao family and said, "You are a businessman. I don't think you will do a loss-making business. What do you want if you give so much money?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he hurriedly said, "I dare not deceive the real person. I have two sons, one is Xuanlang and the other is Xuanguang. They all admire the Tao, but they have no way to suffer. When I saw the real person today, I hope that the two of them can join the real person's disciple. These silver notes are the Shu Xiu of my Zhao family."

What the middle-aged man said is very false. Let’s not talk about the fact that there is a Changping Temple in this place.

He said that this bunch of swear was a gift given by the disciple and the teacher when they first met, and expressed his respect.

Where did parents deliver it?

However, everyone understands people, and Yuchen did not point it out and said bluntly: "If the two young men of the Zhao family are interested, they can come to me to study for a month within a month. Afterwards, I will pack up my things and go to guard him. Where will I go, it depends on fate."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Juren again. The old man didn't say much, and directly signaled Wang Yang to step forward, and then bowed to Yu Chen and expressed his hope that his descendants could join Yu Chen's disciple.

During the words, I also took out a gift and gave it to me.

Compared with the naked silver notes of the Zhao family, the gifts given by the Wang family are much more elegant. In addition to some Taoist scriptures, there are six kinds of gifts such as jerky meat, celery, dried longan, lotus seeds, red dates, and red beans.

Yuchen also accepted these things, saying that Wang Yang could stay in the mountains for a month, just like the two young masters of the Zhao family, and then look at fate in a month.

When he said this, the Ganoderma lucidum in Yuchen's hand also turned into a vital energy. At the same time, several herbs were taken by Yuchen, and after briefly refining them, they were given to the middle-aged man and Wang Juren.

"I see that the two of them lack energy, and this pill is barely up to the level. They are best at replenishing essence and qi. You can take it back and taste it. If you need it, you can also collect some materials and ask me to help you refine one or two."

After saying that, Yuchen asked the boy to see him off.

After the middle-aged man bought the pill, he showed joy on his face. When he was watching Wang Juren beside him, he smiled when he saw this. He looked in a good mood when he went back.

Wang Xiucai said curiously: "Father, although this ninth-grade spiritual pill is good, it won't make you so happy!"

"You elm-head, how much time did Yuchen take to refine elixirs just now? In just a moment, you have refined the ninth-grade spiritual pill. This method of elixir is enough for us to invest. If Yang'er learns the essence of three parts, my Wang family will be worry-free in the next hundred years."

After saying that, Juren Wang closed his eyes and rested, looking tired and too lazy to communicate with his son.
