228 Take what you need(1/2)

"Mr. Liu Yuan, the prince is the younger brother of your majesty's mother. Since you see the problem, you should hurry up and help the prince."

When King Zhongshun saw Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong fall down, he knelt in front of Shi Zhongkui and begged him to save him. He was deeply moved in his heart.

Little did he know that Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong were deeply afraid that his bad luck would be transferred to them after Shi Zhongkui revealed it.

King Zhongshun bowed deeply again, "Bo Qian, I have nothing to offer you in return, so I am willing to give you a village with one hundred hectares of fertile land in Tongzhou."

Shi Zhongkui almost choked at these words.

One hundred hectares equals ten thousand acres, which is equal to a rectangle 6.667 kilometers long and one kilometer wide.

If it is true as King Zhongshun said, then Zhuangzi is all fertile land, worth at least 150,000 to 200,000 taels of silver.

Moreover, mature farms and newly opened wasteland are definitely two different things.

Even if there is sufficient water in the wasteland, it will take two to three years of construction to gradually improve it.

Coupled with the labor and farm labor required, there will definitely be no shortage of troubles.

Shi Zhongkui secretly sighed, your life is really valuable and you are rich enough.

Then he smiled. Although he wanted it in his heart, he still had to say no.

But although he refused, he knew in his heart that if King Zhongshun was not stupid, he would definitely give the land deed afterwards.

And in order to avoid trouble, I must send it back.

After this, the emperor and the supreme emperor might intervene and insist on giving him this Zhuangzi.

So that when you ask yourself again in the future, you will find excuses to shirk.

Moreover, if you can use money and land to repay a favor, not to mention the emperor and the supreme emperor, even King Zhongshun himself would think it is the most cost-effective.

Seeing that Shi Zhongkui didn't want it, King Zhongshun became anxious.

Shi Zhongkui waved his hand and faced King Zhongshun with the fan of the mountain and river brocade fan in his hand.

When King Zhongshun's pupils shrank and he almost backed away in fear, Shi Zhongkui shouted, "Nie Zhan, I have said so much, just waiting for you to come out on your own.

But since you are so stubborn and want to take chances, no wonder I took action."

Shi Zhongkui slapped the Jinxiu Fan a few times, and the Yin Qi that had been released by the fisherman's evil spirit and invaded King Zhongshun's body was drawn out like running water.

Seeing the dark air coming out of his body, King Zhongshun dared not speak or move around. He could only suppress his fear, stand upright and let Shi Zhongkui cast spells.

Then the cloud of Yin Qi gathered in the air and slowly transformed into a little devil with horns on his head, a ferocious face, and green fur all over his body. He bared his teeth at Shi Zhongkui.

This situation immediately frightened Xia Shouzhong and Dai Quan, who rolled over and hid behind Shi Zhongkui.

King Zhongshun plopped down and sat down on the ground.

He secretly thought that he should not show up in front of the emperor and the Supreme Emperor, and then thought that it was a good thing that he listened to Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong and came to see Shi Zhongkui first.

If he followed his previous intention and waited until midnight before going to the Chenghuang Temple, maybe the green-haired evil ghost would wake up and eat him at midnight.

Then King Zhongshun cursed those heavenly masters again in his heart for being unreliable.

There was clearly an evil spirit caused by bad luck on his body, but those magic weapons didn't react at all.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt the huge pain caused by the burns on his waist and neck, and King Zhongshun became even more angry.

Shi Zhongkui looked at King Zhongshun's constantly changing expressions and couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, making you not believe it and making you want to know more about it.

It's okay now. From now on, King Zhongshun will have to put up talismans and put some magical objects in the place where he sleeps before he dares to sleep.

And I definitely don’t dare to go against myself.

Shi Zhongkui smiled inwardly, and moved the brocade fan in his hand again, and the four ghosts appeared again.

The chains were bundled together, but he easily dragged the little green-haired devil into the fan, just like he did when he caught the fisherman devil before.

After several fights, they ended up in a draw.

King Zhongshun, Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong were immediately shocked.

Shi Zhongkui shook his fan again, and four more ghosts appeared, finally suppressing the green-haired kid.

Then several spiritual talismans flew out of his hand, and surrounding the fighting ghosts, the kid set up a six-armor trapping array, and only then did he truly subdue the kid.

And this performance was certainly intentional on Shi Zhongkui's part.

But in the eyes of King Zhongshun, Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong, this green-haired evil ghost must be much more powerful than the previous evil ghost.

So much so that the three of them suddenly had the idea that it was no wonder that the magic weapon given by the Heavenly Master could not be discovered.

When the ghosts dragged the green-haired kid into the brocade fan, the eyes of King Zhongshun and the others were immediately attracted by the golden talisman suspended in the air.

Xia Shouzhong rolled his eyes. Although he got a peach charm token from Shi Zhongkui, the charm looked like a good thing, so of course he wanted one or two.

He didn't stand up in a hurry and climbed up to Shi Zhongkui.

He said flatteringly, "Mr. Liu Yuan, although the green-haired evil ghost was surrendered by you.

But after all, the prince has been possessed by him, and I beg you to think of ways to help the prince regain his strength.

It would be best to give the prince a few more talismans, so that when he goes to the underworld to inquire about a case later, there will be another evil spirit or bad luck that comes to the prince."

King Zhongshun wished he could kiss Xia Shouzhong a few times.

Just now, it was the golden formation composed of these talismans that exerted its power and truly subdued the evil ghost.

Naturally, I also know that this charm is a good thing.

Xia Shouzhong's mind was very simple. If Shi Zhongkui really gave King Zhongshun amulets, he would have the chance to get one or two if he shamelessly asked for them.

Dai Quan knew Xia Shouzhong's thoughts as soon as he saw his expression.

And thinking that he was also interceding for King Zhongshun, kneeling down would not only not be a shame, but would leave a good impression on King Zhongshun.

If the news reached the ears of the Supreme Emperor, the old emperor thought that he was kneeling down for his own son, so it would be a merit but no fault.

However, the old eunuch also had other small thoughts, "Six Yuan Gong, the prince has always been close to nobles from various families, and has been friends with Shi Guangzhu of the Duke of Tui Kingdom for more than ten years.

And if you really think about it, because of your relationship with Concubine Yuan in the palace, you and the prince are still relatives."

"Yes, yes, yes, the little king has always been very respectful to Concubine Yuan, and he also has deep admiration for the Second Duke Ning Rong. If it weren't for Jia Zhen's bastard thing, I would have wanted to make friends with the other children of the Jia family.

As for Shi Guangzhu, I went to the theater and drank wine with him last month."

King Zhongshun had nothing to think about this time. He had always thought about how to help the emperor clear the household deficit.

As for paying off the deficit, the Jia family had just built the Grand View Garden at this time, so they were not the ones who had borrowed the most money.

If you really want to pay it back, you can still do it by gritting your teeth.

But the historians of Jia Mu's natal family will definitely be in bad luck.

As for other nobles, 20% will definitely not be repaid, and 30% will have to be pawned off family treasures and land sold to repay.

Dai Quan said this, if King Zhongshun troubles Xungui in the future, it will be a slap in his face.

Moreover, in front of Shi Zhongkui, he said that he had a good impression and friendship with Ning Rong and the Duke of Tui. If he wanted to regret it, he had to think carefully about the price of offending Shi Zhongkui.

When Shi Zhongkui heard that he only mentioned Jia Lian, he knew that although King Zhongshun had been domineering in the past, he also understood human ethics, so he was naturally not ashamed of Jia Zhen's character.

As for Jia She, they simply didn't mention it, so as not to offend the sons-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion.

Among the Jia family, the most disgusting ones are Jia Zhen and Jia She.

Shi Zhongkui's attitude towards King Zhongshun couldn't help but improve a lot.

After thinking about it, a purple, gold, and red gourd appeared out of thin air and floated in the air.

Then Shi Zhongkui waved to a tea bowl, and the tea bowl automatically floated to the gourd and caught the Chenghuang medicinal wine poured from the gourd.

To King Zhongshun, he had drunk no less than ten kilograms of this wine, and he recognized it just by smelling it.

Just as he was thinking that Shi Zhongkui was not omnipotent, he discovered that the treasure gourd finally released a drop of crystal clear wine that faintly exuded a glorious light.

King Zhongshun, Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong immediately understood that this was the real good thing.

And it must be a secret that is not told.

But to Shi Zhongkui, a drop of peach wine was already insignificant.

In the afternoon, I casually rewarded Liu Yuer and Chang Baiyu with a pound each.

And even so, the spiritual peach wine I made using the 8 original spiritual peaches and 1,000 kilograms of Chenghuang medicinal wine was still over 984 kilograms.

Of course, this is why Shi Zhongkui has a lot of good things in his hands. Otherwise, a few days ago, Shi Zhongkui would definitely not be able to part with this drop of Lingpeach wine.

When King Zhongshun saw the tea bowl flying in front of him, he didn't hesitate at all, let alone whether there would be any problem with the wine. He immediately took a sip and drank it.

After just a few breaths, I felt like my stomach was on fire, and then my whole body felt relaxed.

After thinking about it for a moment, King Zhongshun let out a heavy breath.

Seeing Dai Quan, Xia Shouzhong congratulated with envy on his face, "My lord, just by looking at your complexion, I know that you are full of energy and in good health."

King Zhongshun laughed loudly, "I feel like I can kill a cow now, and with enough kidney energy, I will have no problem having a few more heirs next year."

Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong cursed secretly.

Saying this in front of his two eunuchs is not a slap in the face.
