"I want to change my business." Huang Yuanba said seriously, "To be honest, Taoist people have enough money in this life. These days, I always think about how when I became a monk, I vowed to become the Supreme Golden Immortal. But how did he end up becoming a philistine who only seeks profit?"
"This question is indeed worth thinking about." Qian Yiqun nodded.
"It's probably too late to do meritorious deeds now, so I can only place my hope on the transformation of dragon energy." Huang Yuan said domineeringly, "I want to work with the Taoist priest to contribute to the court."
"Oh?" Qian Yiqun was a little surprised.
"I'm not surprised that Huang Yuanba took a side Of course, his choice is indeed questionable. In comparison, Qian Yiqun was more surprised by Huang Yuanba's superstitious belief in "dragon energy" and "destiny".
"Can this merit really help you achieve your goals?" Qian Yiqun turned his head and asked seriously.
Huang Yuanba was also very surprised. He was surprised that this kind man would doubt such an obvious thing as the realization of meritorious deeds.
"You are considered an expert, why would you ask such a question?" Huang Yuanba couldn't help but sneered, "Why do you think those saints in the Four Saints' Heaven achieved high status?"
¡°Because I¡¯m standing in the right position?¡±
"Because they know the destiny." Huang Yuanba twitched the corner of his mouth, "What is the destiny? The destiny is the part that is closest to the Tao and has an impact on the human world. As long as you understand the destiny and act accordingly, you will naturally ascend to the three realms. So they It¡¯s not that you know your destiny because you stand high, it¡¯s really that you know your destiny that makes you stand tall!¡±
¡°How can you be considered a person who can¡¯t even guess?¡± Qian Yiqun shot back.
"Forget it!" Huang Yuanba said decisively, "For example, if a river rushes down, I don't need to know where the river comes from. Where to go, I just need to follow it. If I choose to go against the current. After all, I want to die of exhaustion. Returning to the general trend of the world, it is like a big river with undercurrents and unknown direction. If I choose the right one, I will naturally flow down three thousand feet. If I choose the wrong one, I will be shattered to pieces. And so on. It¡¯s a big risk, why not give a high return?¡±
Qian Yiqun nodded slightly: So this is their worldview! This is simply like a primary school student tossing a coin and doing multiple-choice questions! If you put it this way, wouldn't it mean that I knew the standard answer, but insisted on choosing something else, and then went against the teacher?
"I have another question," Qian Yiqun said with a smile, "I killed your brother. Is it okay?"
"That guy eats what I have, uses what I have, steals my charms and sells them for money, and uses my name to cheat and deceive. It can be said that the Taoist priest has cleaned up the family for me." Huang Yuanba did not lie on this point. After he learned the sad news about his brother, he drank three glasses of wine and wrote two lines of elegiac couplets: one "Death is more than deserved" and the other "Death is not regrettable".
It¡¯s just that no matter how much he hates his brother. After all, they are from the same mother and blood, and it is absolutely impossible to have a drink with a murderer like Qian Yiqun.
This is just a temporary aggrievement for the business of ten thousand taels of silver. Second brother, if you are worth ten thousand taels, you deserve to die.
Huang Yuanba said to himself in his heart.
"Then let's talk about it. What are your plans?" Qian Yiqun asked
"I'll go back and tell you that you are trapped in the talisman formation. After I get Dorgon's ten thousand taels of silver, I will go to Dalinghe Fort to find you. We will fight against Jianlu with you." Huang Yuan said domineeringly, "In addition Well. It's up to you to pull the strings and let the court buy my talisman."
Qian Yiqun looked at Huang Yuanba. He thought to himself: This is the real businessman. He is actually a businessman wearing a Taoist robe, right?
"Don't look at me like that, my talisman is much stronger than the one from Tianshi Mansion." Huang Yuanba was very serious when introducing the product, and said: "Look at how many Taoist monks in Tianshi Mansion who only draw corpses in a year The talisman comes out? Every one of my disciples draws more than them every month."
It was only then that Qian Yiqun realized that the world¡¯s number one talisman master was not alone! He also had disciples and disciples, who helped him share the production of a large number of primary products and were equivalent to his free workers. If you put it this way, such high-cost and low-difficulty talismans as light body talismans and concealment talismans can be produced by them.
There are also popular talismans sewn on the soles, which are originally their products.
"What benefits do you want to get from the court?" Qian Yiqun asked, "Silver?"
"Title." Huang Yuanba paused and then said: "Of course the money can't be too much less."
"Yes," Qian Yiqun said, "I can satisfy you with both of these, but you can't sell it to the court."
"Oh?" Huang Yuanba narrowed his eyes and looked at Qian Yiqun again.
"You know the Wuxun value and Yuqing incense I got in Shanhaiguan, right?" Qian Yiqun said directly.Tao. Huang Yuanba nodded to express his understanding. Not to mention him, even people from the Jin Kingdom as far away as Liaodong knew about it.
"The value of martial arts is exchanged with the imperial court for official positions, honors, and orders." Qian Yiqun said, "If the imperial court puts these talismans of yours into it, the value of martial arts will be significantly higher. Originally, incense from the Yuqing Zongtan altar can only be exchanged for incense. The things you get can now be obtained by doing errands for the imperial court. Then who will come to brush my Yuqing incense?"
"I see," Huang Yuanba said with a smile, "What does that have to do with me? Why should I find a place for myself to eat at?"
"Because I have been destined to open the Shenxiao Sect." Qian Yiqun said with a gentle expression, "In the future, the 'Three Mountain Talismans' will inevitably be renamed the 'Sifang Xuanshu', and our Taoist sect should always open up a wider dojo and carry forward the style of the ancestor. This Is the merit smaller than that of Fulongting?"
Huang Yuanba thought to himself: This thing sounds good, but in fact it is not so easy? Even in the Jiajing Dynasty, Taoist priests did not claim to be able to compete with the government.
"Haha, if that's the case, why don't I just burn incense at the Qingzong altar?" Huang Yuanba said with a smile.
"Then Longhu Mountain will open the incense for the Zongtan Altar, and Hezao Mountain will open the Yuanshi Zongtan Altar for incense? Then, each temple can open its own incense Hahaha, Taoist Priest, unity will make the power stronger, and division will be stronger. If you are weak, aren't you poaching yourself?" Qian Yiqun said angrily and funny.
"Then why should I give you all the benefits?" Huang Yuanba said displeased.
Qian Yiqun smiled and said: "We are mutually beneficial. You provide the product and I provide the marketing channel. You want a lot of things. It is a win-win situation for everyone, and it is not like I will eat everything and leave you hungry."
Seeing Huang Yuanba hesitate. Qian Yiqun said again: "Don't you know your reputation? If you open a forum to sell incense, you will definitely be regarded as making money by teaching! You might as well let me do it. Anyway, I am certified by Yu Qingtian , no one can make irresponsible remarks."
Huang Yuanba had a thought in his mind: If he concentrated on studying the talisman array and just drew a large number of talismans without considering other sundries, he could sell more talismans.
"What do you use to settle with me?" Huang Yuanba asked.
"Whatever you say," Qian Yiqun said generously, "jade incense, silver coins, gold, titles, official positions you can do it. We can also negotiate one by one. I don't mind the trouble. But the price of the talisman must not be higher than Fifty percent of the market price.¡±
Huang Yuanba doesn¡¯t care about the price. To him, many talismans are just the cost of materials. He said: "But, let's make an agreement, high five and become an alliance!"
Qian Yiqun originally wanted to make a written pledge, but seeing that Huang Yuanba only said that he wanted to high-five as an alliance, it would be too tacky if he insisted on writing it in black and white.
The two men stepped forward, each taking precautions. But they pretended to trust each other extremely, stretched out their hands and touched each other in the air, and they really fell apart at the touch.
"Taoist Huang," Qian Yiqun took a step back. "I still have a worry, and I want to ask the Zodiac Chief for advice."
"Please say."
"How can you guarantee that every talisman has the same power?" Qian Yiqun wanted to know how Huang Yuanba mass-produced standard talismans.
"Hahaha," Huang Yuanba took out the jade talisman from his sleeve. Crush it gently, "The mountain man has his own clever plan."
Blue talisman light ripples up layer by layer. Wrap Huang Yuanba in it and fly away into the sky.
Qian Yiqun looked at this meteor going upstream. I was envious in my heart and thought to myself: The first thing I will buy when the time comes is this return talisman. It is really convenient. Although the astrolabe can travel thousands of miles in an instant, it has to wait twenty-eight days before it can be used again. As a result, it is not easy to use it, so as not to miss the main thing. If there is such a talisman in the future, there is no need to worry. I just don¡¯t know how much it will cost.
Qian Yiqun watched Huang Yuanba leave and hurried on the starry night. He was worried about letting the old deer run around at night, lest he hurt his legs. Under this new moon, Qian Yiqun, with his extremely strong eyesight and reaching out, was no slower than ordinary people walking during the day. Just the bells ringing from time to time, leaving many legends along the way.
¡¡
Daling River City is called a city, but it is actually just a castle. In this military fortress, there are ten thousand civilians, ten thousand auxiliary soldiers, and ten thousand combat soldiers. These soldiers are Guan Ning's cavalry, but they are in danger of losing their cavalry.
"Aren't the reinforcements already on the way? Let's wait a day before killing the horse!" The sad cavalry was reluctant to kill the horse.
Although there are raids by rangers to transport food, these private forces cannot be compared with the official actions of the imperial court. However, no amount of magic can save the time consumed in various aspects of the imperial court's work. Compared with the history of Qian Yiqun's previous life, this time the reinforcements from Shanhaiguan had already set off half a month in advance, but Dalinghe City was stillFood is ready.
The biggest fear of defending a city is low morale, and lack of food is the main reason for low morale. While there were still horses that could be killed for meat, Zu Dashou immediately ordered the horses to be killed.
However, these cavalrymen, who share life and death with their war horses, would rather go hungry for a whole day.
On the battlefield, these war horses are their partners and support.
"No!" the officers sternly refused, "Anyone who dares to disobey will be punished by military law!"
These war horses are not only food for the cavalry, but also supply the entire city's garrison. To other soldiers, horse meat is just horse meat, and they will never be as distressed as these cavalrymen.
"Give me another half day!" someone begged.
Snapped!
The whip was raised high and struck hard.
The cavalry gritted his teeth and held on to the whip, feeling burning pain from the wound.
"Kill the horse!" the officer shouted.
"No killing of horses!"
A shout came from afar.
The officer looked over angrily, and was about to lecture this guy who dared to speak against him when he saw the man holding a command arrow high: "The commander has an order! The rations have arrived! No horses are allowed to be killed!"
