Volume 1 Changshui County Handyman Chapter 54 One hundred thousand taels of gold

Director Zhong left, although Chen Xuanfeng took the decision on all major matters.

But regarding the appointment, Chen Xuanfeng felt that it was better to leave it to Director Zhong when he came back.

After all, the boss of the Demon Slaying Department in Changshui County is still Director Zhong, and Chen Xuanfeng is just in charge.

Then, Zhou Cheng left the large team and went to Anxi Mansion alone.

Chen Xuanfeng led everyone back to the Demon Slayer Division.

Just when Chen Xuanfeng was about to return to his office, Lu Jiuzhang quietly followed him.

"Is something wrong?"

Chen Xuanfeng asked.

"Director Chen, I heard that after killing monsters, the Monster Slaying Department rewards handymen. Do you think..." Lu Jiuzhang asked tentatively.

"There are indeed rewards, but you should think clearly. Now that you are a handyman, the rewards are not much. If you become the Demon Slayer Guard of the Demon Slayer Division, the reward will almost double!"

Chen Xuanfeng said.

"Director Chen, the handyman has a humble status and kills monsters. Shouldn't he be rewarded more? And those Demon-Slaying Guards and even Demon-Slaying Envoys have already entered the rank and are powerful, making it easier to deal with monsters. They should receive more rewards.

few!"

Lu Jiuzhang said.

"I don't make the rules. If you feel dissatisfied, you can go to the Demon Slaying Directorate in Jingzhao Mansion, find the director, and explain it to him!" Chen Xuanfeng retorted.

This guy really doesn't know how to chat, and he chatted to death all of a sudden.

"You have to remember one thing, resources will always be tilted towards the strong. There is no way, this is the rule! If you feel dissatisfied, just practice hard!"

"When you are strong enough, you can challenge the rules and even make new ones!"

"And when you are weak, you can only abide by the rules. Even if you are dissatisfied, you have to hold it in!"

Chen Xuanfeng scolded.

The weak eats the strong, this is the first law.

This world is different from the world that Lu Jiuzhang traveled through.

The world is like this, so what can we do?

Even if he traveled half a year, Lu Jiuzhang would still forget sometimes.

It can’t be like this anymore!

Lu Jiuzhang warned himself in his heart.

"Director Chen, I'd better withdraw the reward in advance." Lu Jiuzhang returned to the original topic.

The right thing is to replace those rewards with cultivation resources as soon as possible.

"After you have thought about it, just go to the warehouse and withdraw it. Just say it was given by me."

Chen Xuanfeng said.

The clerk in the warehouse is in charge of the money of the Demon Slayer Division, and all salaries are collected at the warehouse.

The clerk in charge of the warehouse has a position equivalent to that of a demon-slaying guard, and his level is one level higher than that of ordinary handymen.

But after meeting Lu Jiuzhang, the Cangcao clerk did not dare to neglect him.

Lu Jiuzhang collaborated with Zhou Cheng to kill one high-grade monster, and was rewarded with twenty-five taels of silver. He killed three high-grade monsters alone (the ones killed by Mo Guard were also counted on Lu Jiuzhang), and was rewarded with one hundred and fifty taels of silver!

The reward money is not that small, there were just not so many monsters before.

Otherwise, you can make a lot of money just by killing high-grade monsters.

Many people think there are some bugs in this. If you hire a guard and keep killing monsters and the like, you can get a lot of money.

In fact this situation does not exist.

It is true that the eighth-level martial arts master can easily kill those monsters that have reached the highest level, but the average eighth-level martial arts expert cannot value the small amount of money in rewards.

Too little!

If the reward for killing a monster is hundreds of taels or even thousands of taels of silver, they might take action.

The topic is back on track.

If Lu Jiuzhang becomes the Demon-Slaying Guard and receives the reward, the amount of money should at least be doubled.

But Lu Jiuzhang obviously doesn't have that much waiting time.

Who knows when Director Zhong will return?

If the money is gone, you can still make it again, but if your life is gone, it will be troublesome.

No matter how much money you have, what you get is yours.



In just a few days, Lu Jiuzhang's money has reached more than two hundred taels, making him a very wealthy person.

Then, Lu Jiuzhang came to the place where the case was stored.

Several martial arts books from the Changshui County Demon Slayer Division are also stored here.

Not far from the house where the case is stored is the office of several directors or deputy directors, and no one dares to mess around here.

If his strength exceeds the eighth level and his ability exceeds that of several directors of the Demon Slaying Department, he can come and go freely.

But now that we've reached that point, we probably won't even care about the few martial arts books kept here by An Zong.

"Brother Lu!"

After meeting Lu Jiuzhang, these junior officials were quite polite.

After all, Lu Jiuzhang is a high-ranking official, so there is no need for these junior officials to go against Lu Jiuzhang.

"Sir, Director Chen asked me to choose martial arts."

Lu Jiuzhang said.

"The martial arts are all here, Brother Lu, you can choose for yourself."

The clerk entered the room, took out several martial arts books, and placed them in front of Lu Jiuzhang.

There are four books in total, the first one is called [Thunder Fist], the punch is fast, like thunder roaring from the sky, and is extremely powerful.

The second book is called [Demon-Slaying Sword Technique]. This martial art is the most common sword technique used by the Demon-Slaying Division to restrain those monsters. It is used by many warriors who have just entered the ninth level of martial arts in the Demon-Slaying Division.

Of course, only for those without backstage and background.

If they have the backing and background, their elders will choose better martial arts skills for them.

They have long dismissed such crappy martial arts skills.

The third book is called "Golden Water Sword Technique". After the sword is drawn, the threads are as thin as water, but the power is strong and the destructive power cannot be underestimated.

The fourth book is called [Wind Step], which is regarded as a movement technique. After being refined, it is as fast as the wind. It can still move with ease among several opponents!

These four martial arts books were placed in front of Lu Jiuzhang. For a while, Lu Jiuzhang really didn't know how to choose.

That book [Golden Water Sword Technique] will definitely not work. Lu Jiuzhang has been using the sword and is already good at it.

As for [Thunder Fist] and [Demon Slaying Sword Technique], it’s not easy to choose.

And the book [Wind Steps] is actually pretty good too.

"Master Chen, do you have any advice?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.

The man in charge of the case sect is Chen Xuanfeng's distant cousin, also named Chen.

"Hmm... If you don't know how to choose, I suggest you choose [Demon Slaying Sword Technique]. Although [Demon Slaying Sword Technique] is only a basic sword technique, it has become a system. If you can break through the fourth level of martial arts, or even the third level of martial arts, you still have

The corresponding back volume is for your use."

"The Demon Slayer Division created this sword technique for this purpose."

"On the other hand, [Thunder Fist] and [Golden Water Sword Technique] sound powerful, but are actually useless."

The junior official in charge of the case sect said, "It's just a martial arts suitable for use by the ninth level of martial arts. How powerful can it be? It's nothing more than bragging in the introduction."

"Qianji Tower auctions martial arts every year. Go and see the value of those top martial arts. I once heard that Beilu County auctioned a book of martial arts three years ago. The auction price started at a thousand gold, and ended up being sold to a hundred thousand gold!"

"One thousand taels of silver is one gold, one thousand taels of gold is one spiritual stone, and one hundred thousand taels of gold is equivalent to one hundred spiritual stones!"

One hundred thousand gold!

So scary!

In comparison, Lu Jiuzhang felt that some of the two hundred taels of silver he had on him were nothing!

One hundred thousand gold, that’s one hundred million snowflake silver!

What kind of martial arts is worth so much money?

Lu Jiuzhang even felt that he was almost the same as the beggar.

"Can I choose two martial arts books?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.

In fact, Lu Jiuzhang also fell in love with the book [Wind Steps].

"Ahem...According to the rules, it's definitely not allowed." The clerk shook his head.

If you can’t follow the rules, what if you don’t follow the rules?

Lu Jiuzhang understood that the other party was asking for benefits.

"Master Chen, this amount is feasible." Lu Jiuzhang took out five taels of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into the clerk's sleeve.

The clerk was so familiar with it that he didn't even need to count it in detail. He could understand how much it cost just by feeling the weight.

"Brother Lu, no, I should call you Master Lu. If Director Zhong comes back, he will definitely promote you to Demon Slayer Guard. You will also be an adult by then. I am afraid that this amount of money is not in line with your status as Master Lu, right?"

The clerk laughed.

This little official still doesn't know that Lu Jiuzhang's martial arts has reached a high level.

He only learned from the mouths of those handymen that Lu Jiuzhang cooperated with Zhou Cheng to kill a monster.

At the same time, Lu Jiuzhang's guards took action and killed three monsters, and they were also blamed on Lu Jiuzhang.

The combined bounty of these monsters is a considerable amount.

"Although these martial arts books are poor, if you want to buy them outside, at least a single copy will cost hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver. Mr. Lu only gives this, isn't it a trembling person?"

The clerk was a little dissatisfied.

"Mr. Chen is laughing at me. I'm not married yet, but I still want to save money to get a wife."

Lu Jiuzhang was slapping haha ​​in his mouth, but his movements did not stop.

He took out another ten taels of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the clerk's sleeves.

So damn dark!

Although these martial arts books are sold outside, they can still be sold for hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver.

But this martial skill is not his, it belongs to the Demon Slayer Division!

"Hahaha, then I wish Mr. Lu a speedy marriage."

The clerk smiled and accepted the fifteen taels of silver. He seemed quite satisfied.

"You can take this [Demon-Slaying Sword Technique] with you and I will register it. As for this [Wind Step], Mr. Lu needs to make a rubbing by himself."

"One thing we have to agree on first is that if something happens, Mr. Lu, please don't denounce me."

The clerk said with a smile.

"No, don't worry, Mr. Chen!"

Lu Jiuzhang smiled bitterly.



After the registration, Lu Jiuzhang left with two martial arts books.

[Demon-Slaying Sword Technique] Lu Jiuzhang can be read at any time, but the copy of [Wind Step] must be printed as soon as possible, and it must be returned by tomorrow morning at the latest!

Although there are not many rubbing places in Changshui County, there are a few.

However, Lu Jiuzhang was a little worried about those rubbings. After all, martial arts were too important.

After thinking about it, Lu Jiuzhang prepared to go to find Master Zhou.

On the one hand, I asked about the cultivation situation related to the ninth grade of Confucianism and Taoism, and on the other hand, I took care of this matter by the way.

With this in mind, Lu Jiuzhang left for Master Zhou's house after work.

On the other side, after Lu Jiuzhang left, the clerk of the case clan walked towards Chen Xuanfeng's office.

"Director Chen, the things have been handed over to Lu Jiuzhang. In order to avoid his suspicion, I also charged him fifteen taels of silver." The clerk placed the fifteen taels of silver on Chen Xuanfeng's table.

"Take the silver."

Chen Xuanfeng said.

"Thank you, Director Chen!"

The clerk said excitedly.

"I have this matter in my stomach. I can't tell anyone." Chen Xuanfeng ordered.

"Understood, don't worry, Director Chen!"

The clerk nodded and left.

Chen Xuanfeng paced and walked to the window, the sun was setting again.

Chen Xuanfeng didn't know whether this was the right approach.

Then Lu Jiuzhang, is it really worth it?

Can you really succeed if you place your hopes on him?

Lu Huaigu, Lu Huaigu!

Why did you choose him?

Chen Xuanfeng was puzzled, and he couldn't help but feel a little more melancholy.
