"I can't believe that a great scholar of this generation actually lived in such a shabby inn." Chen Jiu slandered in his heart. He kept moving his hands and walked towards the second floor with the gift box in hand.
The waiter downstairs glanced at Chen Jiu and didn't say much. This inn is a place with a lot of traffic and people are constantly coming and going. Unless a guest is dissatisfied or a guest is harassed, the inn will not take care of it at all. Who are you and why are you here? There is so much traffic every day. How can you remember who the waiter is and who is here to hang out?
"Bang" "Bang" "Bang" There was a knock on the door upstairs.
The door opened with a "squeak" sound, and an old man with a thin face and a simple body looked at Chen Jiu doubtfully: "Who are you?".
Chen Jiu quickly bowed: "Student Chen Jiu, last night I saw a great righteousness rising like a pillar in the city. It must be a great scholar here. I don't want to miss this opportunity, so I came here to pay my respects to you."
Daru glanced at Chen Jiu, nodded and opened the door: "Come in."
Chen Jiu was overjoyed and walked in with the gift box in hand: "The student specially made an inkstone last night and asked the teacher to evaluate it."
The scholar nodded: "Yes, he is a good guy. Do you know how to use foreign methods?"
Chen Jiu did not dare to hide anything and nodded: "Know a little bit for self-defense."
Glancing at Chen Jiu, the great scholar shook his head: "We, scholars and practitioners, have the righteousness in heaven and earth, and naturally have the body protected by Haoran. These evil heretics are just wasting time. Seeing that your body is extremely spiritual and intelligent, you must also be a smart person. People, why don¡¯t they understand this?¡±
Chen Jiu stopped talking. At this time, he had something to ask for. What's more, the other person was a famous scholar in the world. Looking at this man's beard, he was probably over sixty years old and had been scolded by his grandfather's generation. It doesn't matter if you use a sentence, not to mention that the other person will only give you advice if he thinks highly of you. If he feels that you are a hopeless person, he will definitely not spend another sentence with you.
Seeing Chen Jiu's taught expression, the scholar showed a teachable expression: "Hey, that's right. The smarter people are, the easier it is for them to go astray. Sometimes stupid people are better than ordinary people. They go further on the same road because they know that they are stupid and do not dare to waste time on other roads. In this way, they will achieve the great road by going down the road wholeheartedly."
"Thank you, sir, for your teaching." Chen Jiu stood up and bowed.
"I am Li Hui, a great scholar from Qingyang Academy in Qingzhou. I see that you have gained some skills in heretical cultivation. Were you the one who was fighting outside the city last night?"
"I don't dare to hide it, sir. The one who fought with the students last night was an evil power. It has been sealed for thousands of years. A few days ago, a trace of spiritual consciousness broke the seal and wanted to bring disaster to the world. It released its true form. The students unintentionally destroyed it. He did his good deeds, but he kept chasing the students. If it hadn't been for the help of my husband last night, I'm afraid the students wouldn't be able to stand here today."
"So that's how it is." Li Hui nodded and touched his gray beard: "The demon outside is the most hateful. If he does evil for the sake of the people, is that demon dead?"
Chen Jiu looked ugly, "Mr. Haoran's righteousness is indeed powerful. He seriously injured the demon king with just a slight drink. However, I don't know what kind of magical power the demon had, but he didn't die. The student's lack of strength did not trap him, but was killed by him." Escaped."
Li Hui nodded and didn't care. How much more could a demon's spiritual consciousness be capable of if it was severely damaged by him.
"The student happens to be studying in Qingyang Academy. I wonder what the purpose of this trip is?"
Li Hui glanced at Chen Jiu: "I went to do some things a few days ago, and I am about to return recently. Since you want to study, then come with me."
"This is what the student has in mind. Thank you sir for making it happen." Chen Jiu's face was filled with joy.
Li Hui put away the inkstone: "Although I am on the same road as you, whether you can pass the exam or become a student of Qingyang Academy depends on your own ability. I will not open the back door for you."
Chen Jiu looked at the scholar: "I wonder when sir will set off?".
Li Hui looked tired: "I'm old and can't bear all this running. I have to rest for a while today, and it won't be too late to start again tomorrow."
Chen Jiu looked at Li Hui's tired face and stood up immediately: "Then student, please leave first and don't disturb sir. Tomorrow, student will wait for sir at the gate of the city."
After saying that, Chen Jiu left. The scholar closed the door, looked at the square inkstone in his hand, and nodded: "It is also a good treasure. It can relieve fatigue and prolong life. It is a good thing."
Chen Jiu walked out of the inn, looked at the flow of people passing by, and turned his eyes. There happened to be a cloth shop. It seemed that there were few people in the cloth shop. Occasionally, one or two passers-by walked in and then walked out with ugly expressions.
?"It just so happens that my clothes have been worn out a lot recently. I can't do this when I go to Qingzhou to study in the future. As the saying goes, a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. If you dress too shabbily, you will be looked down upon. Qingzhou is a big city. Dressing more luxuriously can save you a lot of trouble. ".
Thinking of this, Chen Jiu walked towards Buzhuang.
The waiter looked at the shabby Chen Jiu and said nothing, still sitting there minding his own business.
Chen Jiu said expressionlessly: "Boss, is the boss here?".
The waiter looked at where Chen Jiu was shouting, with an impatient look on his face: "Boy, the clothes in our cloth shop are very valuable and special. Seeing as you can't afford this outfit, you'd better go out quickly."
I really didn¡¯t expect that there was such a business. Chen Jiu said expressionlessly: ¡°Oh, no matter how expensive your clothes are, how expensive can they be? Tell me.¡±
The waiter looked bitter: "I don't know what my boss is thinking. A piece of clothing costs ten gold. Ten gold can buy a whole house of clothes. Who would come here to do business?"
"It's not to blame that the waiter has a bad temper. It has been three months since it opened, but there is not a single customer. They all left with the ten gold. I don't know how good the boss's methods are, and he dares to ask for such a high price.
"Is there something special about your boss's craftsmanship?" Chen Jiu asked doubtfully.
It was rare for someone to listen to his nagging, so the waiter pursed his lips: "My boss said that this is an ancestral craft. During the previous dynasty, he specialized in making dragon robes for the emperor. Of course, the price cannot be lowered, and our boss doesn't know how to make dragon robes." What's so crazy, I actually want to upgrade a piece of clothing to a hundred gold pieces in a year."
Chen Jiu¡¯s eyes were slightly bright. Isn¡¯t this the brand effect for future generations?
"Call your boss out and let me make the clothes. Isn't it just ten gold? As long as he does a good job and is worth the price, these fifty gold will belong to your boss." As he said this, Chen Jiu took out something from his arms. He picked up a handful of gold and threw it on the table.
The waiter¡¯s eyes lit up when he saw Jin Zi: ¡°Boss, boss, we¡¯re here for business, it¡¯s big business.¡±
"What's the noise? I don't know if I'm sleeping." A slightly fat figure came out.
Chen Jiu looked at the boss. His clothes were all made of fine workmanship. He was indeed extraordinary and definitely no worse than the dragon in the palace.
The boss¡¯s fingers are white and tender, his sleeves are long, clean and well-maintained. He is obviously a person who relies on his hands for food.
"What, you want custom-made clothes?" the boss said lazily.
Chen Jiu nodded: "Five pieces, purple, you can choose the pattern yourself."
The boss looked at Chen Jiu seriously, then nodded and glared at the waiter: "This is a big customer. If you don't put the gold away quickly, you are so lazy. It seems that you should be fired in the future." .
As he spoke, he said to Chen Jiu: "You stay here later. I just made some clothes a few days ago. I changed them to suit your figure."
After saying that, he hurriedly walked into the house. It was obvious that the boss still had moral integrity and knew that he had to do his best for others after taking their things. The laziness in his body was gone, but was replaced by a shrewd and capable one.
Chen Jiu didn't wait any longer. After drinking three cups of tea, he saw the boss hurriedly walked in with a tray on which was a pile of clothes.
Chen Jiu took the clothes over and touched them: "Yes, they are all high-quality satin. The workmanship is absolutely fine and they are worth the price."
¡°This dress is covered with mountains, rivers, trees, fish and insects, birds and animals are all different. I don¡¯t know how the boss did it, but he was able to put together five pieces of purple clothes in such a short time.
