Chapter 110 Partnership
I took a shower cleanly in the stream pond, changed into clean clothes, washed the clothes and gloves that were cleaning the toilet, and dried them. Only then did Yan Liqiang's morning affairs come to an end.
Yan Liqiang is not a person with a very obsessed with cleanliness, otherwise he would not be able to do this job. However, the clothes he wore were more or less smelly after cleaning the toilet. Yan Liqiang didn't want to be "seen" by others wherever he went, so he naturally had to change into a clean outfit. This is also the reason why Yan Liqiang prepared several sets of clothes for himself.
"Brother Liqiang, then..." Yan Liqiang had just finished his clothes. Gu Zexuan and Zhao Huipeng came to his yard while gnawing on the corn cob and threw Liqiang a cooked corn cob and a cooked egg.
The corn cob was still a little hot, but it was no longer hot. Yan Liqiang took the corn cob and removed the two layers of leaves on the outermost part of the corn cob. A scent of corn came to his face. After doing the work all morning, he was already so hungry that he was rude, so Yan Liqiang, who had taken the corn cob, started eating it in a big mouthful.
The Sword God Sect only cares about two meals in the morning and evening, and the others are ignored. For Yan Liqiang and other outer disciples, they just go to a few meals in the Gray Coat Hall to receive six steamed buns or the same amount of pickled buns, and then they have nothing left. The treatment of the outer disciples is no different from when he was in the Precepts Academy, as long as you can't starve to death.
It was the first time Yan Liqiang had eaten the stuffing in the bun yesterday, which was made of salted radish. The food in the gray-clothed hall was simply a strange one.
As for the outer disciples who want to eat better, there is no problem. There are Yishui restaurants in several markets of the Sword God Sect, including big fish and meat, as long as you have money.
The rule of this Sword God Sect is to force outer disciples to either grit their teeth to live a difficult life, or grit their teeth to strive for progress, make themselves stronger, and to leave the class of outer disciples as soon as possible.
Logically speaking, Gu Zexuan and Yan Liqiang and others in the field cannot eat the corn cob. The harvest of these grains belongs to the sect, but living people cannot be suffocated to death by urine. Gu Zexuan often buys some eggs and cooks them from the old men who are staying here. Those chickens are raised by the old men themselves and are considered personal property. As for breaking a few corn and cooking them in the field and cooking them together with the eggs they bought, the old men are completely invisible.
"How about it, what is it easy for you to do? If you need help, just say it. Zhao Huipeng and I will help you..." Gu Zexuan also said to Yan Liqiang while gnawing on the corn cob.
"It's okay, I won't bother you two. Although it's a little harder, I can do it alone..."
I don’t know if it’s because I’m too hungry or if I’ve been tired of eating steamed buns these days, this ordinary boiled corn cob tastes very sweet at this time, and it feels like the supreme delicacy.
"You are cleaning the toilet very fast. I see that those outer disciples who came to Tianqiaofeng to clean the toilets in the past, just lifting the water from the bottom of the mountain, some people will take half a day..."
"Maybe there are many people on Qiaofeng Mountain Road during the day, so those who carry water will be slower. I go to the evening, and there is no one on the mountain road, so I can run with water, so it's faster!" Yan Liqiang said modestly. His strength and endurance are not comparable to those ordinary outer disciples, so just this is the time to lift water and climb the mountain. He saves several hours of time than other disciples. In this way, his time to complete the work will be greatly shortened.
"Haha, in this way, brother Liqiang, you will be completely free of your daytime. You can practice well and strive to advance as soon as possible, and to anger the Huo person to death!"
"I don't know when I will be able to advance. Now I have only passed the Horse Stamp Pass. It's too early to become a samurai, let alone advance to the Dragon and Tiger Warrior!"
"It doesn't matter. You can't be impatient for your cultivation. Just take it slowly. As long as you persist, there will always be a natural day. There is only one thing that can't be slow, and that is to make money!" Gu Zexuan sighed, "Before becoming a personal disciple, life in the Sword God Sect would be difficult if you don't have money. Even a good meal is a problem. Although my family is not poor, it is not a solution to ask your family to bring money every year. A big man always has to support himself when he goes out. I don't know if there is any way to make money with my brothers. If there is any way, we can work together. The three of us are better than one person and it is easier to do things. If we have money, we will pay money. If we have strength, we will give some effort to see if we can find a way to make money..."
"What are the ways to make money by the two senior brothers before? Tell me!"
"This... I used to be a stonemason at home. A few months ago, Senior Brother Gu bought me some stonemason tools. Senior Brother Gu and I tried to make a few stone mortars that pounded medicine and sold them to the market, but they didn't sell them..." Zhao Huipeng blushed and said embarrassedly.
"Oh, don't mention it. Everything is good at home, but it's hard to go out. Brother, you saw it when you went to the market to buy things yesterday. As long as it is a job that can make money, there are people who can do it, and there are people who can't do it. It's really not easy to make money without affecting your practice..."
Yan Liqiang suddenly felt a move in his heart and suddenly thought of a way. Although Yan Liqiang had tried his best to clean the toilet today, he was still a little dissatisfied, that is, the odor in the toilet could not be removed after cleaning. He was thinking about how to do this perfectly when he was taking a shower. He had several plans in his mind and was considering it. As soon as Gu Zexuan talked about making money, he immediately thought of one of the simplest plans, maybe he could try it.
"This... I have a way, I don't know if it can be done!"
"What's the solution? Brother, come and listen!" Gu Zexuan immediately said with interest.
"I suddenly remembered this method when I went to clean the toilet today, um... My grandfather used to be a doctor in You Fang. He knew a way to remove the odor in the toilet. Brother Gu, do you think if we can make something that can remove and significantly reduce the odor in the toilet, can we sell it?"
"Are you talking about sachets? This thing has been available long ago?"
"It's not a sachet. The sachet covers the odor in the toilet, not removes it. What I'm talking about is another way..."
"Then is it easy to make this thing? How much money does it take to invest to see the effect?"
"It's easy to do it. If you want to invest money, it's probably enough to make a few cents of money. You can make a batch of samples first and try it..."
"Can you make it with just a few dollars?" Gu Zexuan's eyes widened, "So cheap?"
"It basically doesn't cost much money to make this thing, it just takes a little time. If you start doing it now, it will take about two or three months to see the finished product!"
"What are you waiting for? Do it!" Gu Zexuan slapped his thighs and shouted directly, "Isn't this money just a few cents of money? What's the good meal? It's not long. We can try it first. If this method works, then it's a long-term transaction and it's definitely worth a try. In this way, this time it's your method. Zhao Huipeng and I don't have some money and strength. What do you want to do? Let's do it. In the future, you can make half of the money. Zhao Huipeng and I take half of it together. What do you think!"
"Okay, then that's it!" Yan Liqiang laughed.
Gu Zexuan and Zhao Huipeng were both a little excited and were ready to go, "Brother, what do you think you need to make that thing?"
"You need a few large earthen jars of pickled pickles..."
