"Master!" The little Taoist boy, who was still a little aggrieved at first, suddenly turned red after hearing Chong Yunzi's words.
Ma Fu and other merchants didn't understand until this moment.
Oh, that's what happened.
The real reason why Chong Yunzi kicked his apprentice away was to protect his apprentice.
Don't let him be hurt by that evil dragon.
Even a master like Chong Yunzi accidentally suffered serious injuries when fighting that evil dragon.
Maybe Chong Yunzi reacted a little slower just now, and his apprentice might have been killed by the evil dragon.
From this point of view, although Taoist Chongyunzi is a little greedy for money, he is still a person who values friendship and loyalty.
For Ma Fu and others, today was a big event.
They are all businessmen, and they often travel all over the country. They are also well-informed people.
But even they have never seen such a thing.
The snake's head had obviously been chopped off, but it grew back in the blink of an eye.
Such an unbelievable thing can only be explained if the snake is a real monster.
"Taoist Master..." Zhang Fengnian asked worriedly: "Is it true that the evil dragon won't come back in a short time?"
He was really a little frightened. Not to mention people from this period, even people in later generations would probably be frightened when they saw this scene.
After all, the things that Chongyunzi Steel did at least seemed quite intimidating.
Chong Yunzi comforted Zhang Fengnian with great confidence: "Donor, don't worry, the evil dragon's foundation has been damaged by me, and it is absolutely impossible for him to come out to harm others in a short time."
"But it is true that Pindao is not strong enough to destroy the evil dragon, so he will come back sooner or later."
"Then..." Zhang Fengnian wanted to suggest that he let Chong Yunzi follow him and protect him in the past few years.
Otherwise, he really wouldn't feel at ease.
As if he had seen through Zhang Fengnian's thoughts, Cong Yunzi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's a pity that the poor Taoist travels around and practices in the world. He must not stay in one place for too long. Otherwise, he really wants to help the donor, completely."
Destroy the dragon."
"After all, this evil dragon is ferocious by nature. If he really becomes a climate, who knows how many people will suffer?"
"But the owner doesn't need to worry too much. The old sword Chong Yunzi flipped his wrist, and a crystal clear jade pendant appeared in his hand."
"This jade pendant is my personal magic weapon. If the evil dragon wants to continue to harm the owner, this jade pendant can protect the donor safely for three months."
"As long as this jade pendant is activated, the frequency will
The poor man will naturally know that the evil dragon has begun to cause trouble to the world again."
"I will arrive as soon as possible to the owner's location and help him completely destroy the evil dragon."
Zhang Fengnian accepted the jade pendant with gratitude: "Thank you, Taoist priest, for spending money on it. I will definitely not let Taoist priest work in vain."
This is a hint to Chong Yunzi that of course he will give the money. Now that the money has been received, you can make an offer.
Chong Yunzi smiled slightly, with the air of a worldly master: "The treasures in the world are only for the virtuous. The reason why the channel handed over this jade pendant to the donor today is naturally because the owner has a destiny with this jade pendant.
.”
Although Chong Yunzi had just saved his life, Zhang Fengnian still felt a faint sadness.
If the other party doesn't bid directly, it will be even more difficult.
After all, according to Chong Yunzi, this jade pendant can be regarded as a quite extraordinary treasure.
The price of the treasure is quite difficult to say. Especially since this treasure can save Zhang Fengnian's life.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Fengnian was too embarrassed to lower the price.
He said very simply: "Thank you for spending so much money, Taoist Priest, to give all this treasure to me for self-defense."
"I'm just a businessman. I really have nothing to repay."
"I am willing to donate another 50,000 taels of incense money to help the Taoist priest practice."
Hiss~
Ma Fu and others began to gasp again.
Does this Fengnian boss Zhang really not regard money as money?
How much time has passed since we arrived at Chong Yunzi's residence?
In the blink of an eye, more than 100,000 taels of silver have been spent, and it feels like the money has been blown away by the strong wind.
Jealousy envy hate ah!
It would be great if the money was yours.
Chong Yunzi was also ecstatic: "Hahahaha! I really have to thank those idiots from the White Lotus Sect!"
"If it weren't for the spell book they gave me, I wouldn't be able to learn such a powerful spell."
"But having said that, they are guarding such a powerful thing and are still hiding here and there every day. They really have no future."
"If it had been Pindao, this whole thing would have already been in Pindao's pocket."
For a moment, some thoughts that shouldn't have arisen in Chong Yunzi's heart.
But this guy was just an ordinary liar after all. After the initial excitement, he quickly calmed down.
"No, no. It's too dangerous to rebel or anything like that. Even a few brains are not enough for rebellion. As long as you can make money with these spells, it's not much better than being in fear every day."
Quickly making a decision, Chong Yunzi completely put aside the idea of rebellion and settled on becoming a liar, a promising career.
"In that case, I would like to thank the donor. I really need money now."
Ma Fu and others' eyes widened in astonishment, with disbelief in their eyes.
What's going on?
Except for businessmen, basically everyone in this world is ashamed to mention money.
It was as if his personality was insulted whenever money was mentioned.
Especially those scholars who often use their power in private to let others in their family do business and make profits.
But they all looked honest and honest, as if they really had nothing to do with money.
All businessmen, on the surface, are respectful and respectful to those scholars.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In fact, they privately despise these people.
They are all fucking hypocrites. They obviously love money to death, but they are greedier than anyone else when receiving gifts.
But he still has to pretend to be so upright and upright, so it's not too disgusting.
Of course, on the surface, these hurtful feelings will never show any signs of harm.
Even when in front of those people, I have to keep flattering them.
It's as if they are really the kind of people whose money is like dirt.
Ma Fu and others really didn't expect that there were people in the world who were just like their businessmen and were not shy about money.
Moreover, he is also an outsider who is extremely skilled in exorcising ghosts and monsters.
Zhang Fengnian hurriedly clasped his fists: "Taoist priest, please rest assured, I will have the money delivered as soon as I get back."
No matter what he was thinking, Zhang Fengnian would not show the slightest look of contempt on his face when facing the person who had just saved his life.
He thought he hid it well, but Chong Yunzi was obviously used to this kind of thing.
Then he smiled slightly: "Pindao knows that you all look down on Pindao and think that Pindao is too greedy."
Ma Fu and others' expressions changed greatly, and they hurriedly denied it with their heads whitened.
"Taoist Master, you misunderstood. We have never thought of it this way."
"With how powerful the Taoist priest is, no amount of money is too much."
"If fifty thousand taels of silver can save a life, I think this deal is perfect."
"What does it mean to be appropriate?" One person retorted with a raised eyebrow in disbelief.
His words immediately attracted the attention of the people next to him, and they kept winking at him, hoping that he would shut up quickly.
Taoist Chongyunzi had just shown such powerful magic power. Not only did this guy not know how to respect him, he even dared to mock Taoist Chongyunzi.
If this made the Taoist priest unhappy, it would probably not be difficult to kill him.
As a result, the conversation suddenly changed: "You guys have done so much business that you don't even know right from wrong."
Ma Fu quickly stood up and was the first to retort, pointing at the opponent's nose and yelling: "You bastard, do you have any conscience? The Taoist priest sacrificed his own law to save our lives."
"Isn't your life worth these tens of thousands of taels of silver?"
"If you feel that your life is so worthless, you can get out right now. I can guarantee that no one will stop you."
Several other people also nodded, as if to prove that they agreed with what Ma Fu said.
The businessman who stood up to refute before smiled brightly and said: "I'm afraid what Boss Ma said is wrong."
"According to what you think, Boss Ma, a human life is only worth fifty thousand taels of silver?"
"I don't think so."
"In order to save Boss Zhang's life, the Taoist priest spent so much effort that he even fell into danger."
"For paying so much money, it's us who take advantage."
Damn it? You can still say that.
Isn’t this guy’s flattery taken a little too far?
However, Taoist Master Chong Yunzi is obviously a Taoist priest with noble detachment and low taste.
After hearing these hurtful words, he smiled and shook his head and said: "Donor, you have thanked me."
"Actually, Pindao himself knows very well that fifty thousand taels of silver is definitely not a small amount. To put it bluntly, going to the bank to buy a slave now is nothing more than actual silver."
"Even if you want someone to live your life for yourself, a thousand and eighty taels of silver is enough, let alone fifty thousand taels."
Ma Fu was even more shocked as they waited. They really couldn't understand what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd of Taoist Chongyunzi.
Chong Yunzi didn't let them wonder for too long, and said straight to the point: "The reason why Pindao needs money is not what everyone thinks, but a very tacky reason."
"The sects of Pindao are not like those sects circulating in the world today, which are good at spreading incense and collecting offerings from believers."
"Moreover, when the world was in chaos in the early years, monsters were rampant in the world. Poor Taoist masters and fellow apprentices frequently went out to slay monsters and promote justice."
"As a result, the poor sect suffered many deaths and injuries, and finally the talents withered and fell apart overnight."
"Pindao just wants to make more money to build a Taoist temple for our sect so that the sect can flourish."
When saying these words, Chong Yunzi also let out a long sigh: "Pindao knows very well that doing all these things requires money, so the channel can only break the sect's past rules and become a greedy person.
That’s the person.”
Seeing the deep self-blame on Chong Yunzi's face, the businessmen not only did not think Chong Yunzi was greedy, but they deeply felt how noble the personality of this Taoist priest was.
Ma Fu was the first to stand up again: "Taoist Master, please do not hesitate to do so. We understand your painstaking efforts, Taoist Master."
"In order to support the Taoist priest, you build a Taoist temple and reshape the mountain gate. I am willing to donate directly..." Ma Fu said in an extremely bold and bold manner, giving the impression that he, like Zhang Fengnian, had to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Similar.
As a result, when the words came to his lips, Ma Fu suddenly hesitated. He said nice things, but when it came time to take real money, Ma Fu still hesitated.
After all, although people like them make a lot of money, even if they are deceived and abducted, the money is earned by them with their own hands, and it is their hard-earned money.
So Ma Fu calmly changed his words and said: "One thousand taels."
When the others heard this, they immediately showed a look of disdain: "It's such a big deal, I thought you wanted to donate a lot of money, but it turned out to be only a thousand taels?"
"Then I will donate one thousand two hundred taels!"
Another guy who was very loud, but when it came time to pay, he gave in decisively.
But this time no one was laughing at them.
Because everyone also discovered that donating more than a thousand taels at once, well, this is really not a small amount of money.
After all, they are not ordinary businessmen. If they want to spend huge sums of money, they really can't do it.
Besides, one thousand taels of silver was actually a huge sum of money, but when placed in front of Zhang Fengnian's one hundred thousand taels of silver, it seemed inconspicuous.
But in fact, these 1,000 taels of silver can do a lot of things.
When some of them were not in business before, they might not be able to get a thousand taels of silver even if they spent all their money.
Chong Yunzi was a very practical person. He did not look down on the money as these businessmen imagined, but was very happy.
Not bad, not bad, now I got another five or six thousand taels of silver. Did Pindao bump into the God of Wealth when he went out today?
Thinking of this, Chong Yunzi glanced at Zhang Fengnian intentionally or unintentionally.
For him, Zhang Fengnian is his biggest god of wealth today.
It can be said that without Zhang Fengnian, these businessmen would not have been able to donate money to him so enthusiastically.
"Thank you to all the donors for your generous donation. I am deeply grateful."
He did not just express it verbally, but took out a few more amulets and handed them to these merchants one after another: "These are the amulets I drew in my free time. They can protect you from all evils."
After thinking about it, Mr. Zhong added: "It can also help to ward off a disaster. If you find that this talisman is damaged when you wear it, it means that this talisman has blocked a bloody disaster for you."
"After that, you will burn this talisman and bury the remaining ashes in the northwest corner of the courtyard of your residence. You must not continue to wear it."
