Fan Suliu's expression changed several times, but in the end he could not resist the temptation brought by the remaining pill fragments.
This thing can be called a poison that cuts off the road ahead for all those who aspire to the top of the road, but for monks who have a short life span and no hope of breaking through, it is a first-rate elixir.
Especially for a person like him who breathes out and refines the spiritual energy, it is even more precious.
Just a fragment of the elixir was enough to save him countless hard work, as well as a huge amount of money and resources!
Otherwise, just raising a small realm is enough to defeat the entire county governor's mansion, not to mention the things needed to break through the third realm from the second realm, I am afraid that even ten county governor's mansions are not enough.
"There is no shortage of magical weapons, skills, and skills for even a poor man. But coming from a small county town, what he needs most is friends."
Ji Yuan shook the tea cup lightly and said with profound meaning.
However, after Fan Suliu heard this, not only was he not happy at all, he even looked like he was frowning.
This sentence is obviously not as simple as it seems, and it is impossible for him to give away such a precious thing just to make friends.
He didn't think he had much charisma, nor did he think that just being the son of a county governor would make people willing to pay such a high price.
It's not that no one offers treasures on weekdays, it's just that most of them are asking for nothing, but no matter how valuable the gift is, it can only cost hundreds or even a thousand taels. If it exceeds this number, it must be because you have something important to ask for.
"Just friends?"
Fan Suliu looked deeply, as if he wanted to see something.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan still maintained the light smile on his face: "Of course we are just friends."
This time, he simply pushed the jade bottle directly in front of the other party, then raised the teacup and said while drinking: "But since we are friends, we must help each other. We can make money together and handle things together."
really!
Fan Suliu sneered in his heart, he had known for a long time that things were not that simple, but the temptation involved was not something he could resist.
The true value of an elixir fragment lies not in its huge potency, but in its ability to easily break through the bottleneck in front of you!
It is true that if he is allowed to practice on his own, it is not impossible to reach the third realm in the future, but in this case, the resources required will be immeasurable.
And if all the money was wasted, it would be an unbearable loss for himself and the county governor.
Even his father, the county guard, no matter how much he loved him, would not be able to devote such huge resources to betting on a hope of at most 20% to 30%.
It is precisely because of this that even though he knew the side effects of the pill fragments, he had no choice. One was the second realm of life, and the other was the third realm of hope. Any normal person would know how to choose. @ESSENTIAL\/书馆·
No mistake for the first time~~
"for example?"
Fan Suliu opened his mouth, and there was a sharp look in the depths of his eyes.
This thing is inevitable for him. No matter what the cost, he must get it!
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan put on a serious face: "For example, the current situation of the Qian family, the appearance of people from the Shenxuan Sect in the city, and the future cooperation between Ming Xinxuan and the Sheriff's Mansion."
Good guy!
Even though Qian Nishang was on the same side, after asking, she couldn't help but secretly said, "What a big appetite!"
This is tantamount to tying the Sheriff's Mansion and the Qian family completely together, and they will live and die together from now on!
But no matter how valuable a fragment of the elixir was, it was not enough for the county guard to make such a choice.
"Impossible, my father will not agree."
Fan Suliu couldn't help but shake his head.
Although there are times when he, the Third Young Master Fan, speaks more effectively than the county governor, it is because of his father's love, but when it comes to really important matters, the county governor will never be emotional.
For such a large county guard to be completely bound to the Qian family, one of Ming Xinxuan's three owners, overtly or covertly, how could the county guard agree to such a thing?
"The Sheriff will agree in the future, but what I need now is your nod, Mr. Fan."
Ji Yuan chuckled and said: "As long as you nod now, we can continue to cooperate in the future.
, to increase the importance in the other party’s mind.”
Ever since he took action that night to help Qian Nichang get out of a deadlock, he had already thought about today's events and had already thought about how to win over the governor as his beloved youngest son.
And how to establish a relationship with the entire county governor's office step by step, and finally get him to be tied to the Qian family. o_m
Of course, these latter things cannot be rushed. It will take a lot of time to perfect the relationship bit by bit and make the other party realize the importance of the Qian family.
So when he saw the other party, who looked thoughtful at this moment, he continued to speak: "This is a long-term friendship. I believe that as long as both parties cooperate, we will definitely bring about a different situation."
"It's not just this fragment of pill."
Ji Yuan specifically clicked, leaving it up to the other party to guess what he would get.
It's just that at this moment, Fan Suliu's most concerned thing is not the future, but the jade bottle that is very close at hand. His eyes fall on the fragment of the elixir and it is difficult to look away.
More than anything else, the temptation to enter the Third Realm was truly something he couldn't refuse.
Once you achieve the realm of enlightenment, you can climb from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain in one step, and truly become a big shot.
And he was able to completely get rid of the title of the county governor's son. Instead, when outsiders talked about him, they would call the county governor the father of Fan Suliu.
Even though it is just a change of name, it is actually the key to whether he can escape the control of his father. No one wants to live in the shadow of someone else for the rest of his life, even if that person is his father.
"I...can't represent the county governor's office."
He sighed, looking a little weak.
But after all, at this time, he was not qualified to make such an important decision for his father.
Even if he makes a promise now, his father will overturn it on the spot later and will never admit it.
"Actually, the reason why the county governor's mansion is strapped for financial resources is simply that the county governor's lifespan is short and he is actively searching for things to increase his lifespan."
Ji Yuan said nonchalantly: "If you can reach the realm of Ming Dao, your life span will be increased by one hundred and twenty years, and you will no longer have such worries."
Hearing this, Fan Suliu's eyes sparkled with light, and he immediately put aside all pretense. His whole person no longer had any helplessness or powerlessness, but showed a high-spirited look.
He grabbed the jade bottle in front of him and said in a deep voice immediately: "Since Taoist Master Lingyu has kindly invited me, shopkeeper Qian and I have also met each other, so we became brothers and sisters of the opposite sex here without saying anything."
Friends or not, we are family from now on!"
Qian Nishang's mouth twitched, but she didn't expect that just one or two sentences would cause the other party's attitude to change so drastically, and they would directly step aside from being friends and become brothers and sisters of the opposite sex.
On the contrary, Ji Yuan on the side was not surprised by this, and had even made a guess in his mind.
"I understand Mr. Fan's good intentions. Since I have become a monk, how can I treat others as my brothers and sisters?"
He smiled cheerfully: "You two might as well have a sworn knot. It will be a good story if it spreads. From now on, you can help each other, right?"
To have done this for the Qian family is already considered very good. Ji Yuan didn't want to get one or two eldest sisters, second brothers, etc. for him.
If he hadn't become a special worshiper of the Qian family, and Qian Nishang's rise and fall would also determine his own interests, I'm afraid he wouldn't have worked so hard and risked being involved in all kinds of causes and effects to do so many things.
Even what he is doing now is to create a backer for himself, or to rely on and have confidence.
Otherwise, even if Ji Yuan has successfully entered the second realm recently, with Xuantian Guan’s people and strength, and went to Jiuxuanmen, although he will not be targeted everywhere, there will still be some people with ulterior motives who will keep an eye on the areas they occupy.
One line of inheritance.
Once Xuantian Temple returns to the Jiuxuan Sect with its luck, the inheritance place it promises will not only be a mountain for people to practice, but also a place in the ancestral hall and one-tenth of the sect's annual resources.
quota.
Under such interests, there will always be people with evil intentions. Even if they dare not do anything openly, there is no way they can do anything secretly.
.
If you don’t have enough confidence and support, it’s not an exaggeration to say that everything will be difficult.
And since Ji Yuan has decided to return to Jiuxuanmen with Xuantian Temple, he naturally cannot let some people kick them out and take away what should belong to them.
Therefore, it is necessary to make some plans in advance.
The Qian family of Mingxinxuan and the Sheriff's Mansion of Luoxia County were one of the confidence and support he had prepared for himself.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, Fan Suliu had ordered a group of maids to place incense sticks in the courtyard to make offerings to each other, using heaven and earth as witnesses to marry each other.
After three bows and nine kowtows, burning incense and praying, a simple ceremony was completed. The two of them started shouting, one for elder sister and the other for younger brother.
Fortunately, both of them are not ordinary people. Not to mention their level of cultivation, their family backgrounds are extraordinary, so they naturally show a little bit of embarrassment.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan murmured in his heart. A moment ago, they had only met a few times and were not very familiar with each other, but now they seemed like real siblings who had grown up together.
After all, he was somewhat admired, at least he himself couldn't do this.
"Tomorrow I will invite all my friends, set up a few banquets in my house, and announce to the world that I will be sworn in with my eldest sister."
Fan Suliu said.
At this time, he had a completely different look than before. He had changed from being cold and elegant to being so enthusiastic, which somewhat caught people off guard.
As for his proposal, Ji Yuan and Qian Nichang did not object. They gave up such a great effort and gave away such a precious thing. Wasn't it just to completely tie them to the county governor's mansion?
Just making the county governor owe a favor is no longer enough to satisfy their current appetite.
After all, favors are meaningful only when both sides agree. If the county guard becomes unhappy one day and denies it, then they will have to swallow the loss.
"I just don't know, eldest sister, how do you want your younger brother to behave in the future?"
Fan Suliu seemed to be asking Qian Nishang, but in fact his eyes moved to Ji Yuan.
Now that the sworn vows have been completed and the oath has been made to heaven and earth, no one can ignore it. Regardless of whether they admit it or not, there is already an inseparable relationship between the two parties.
And this can be regarded as the basis for the cooperation between the two parties, and it is also the sincerity shown by Fan Suliu. Otherwise, there is no need for the youngest son whom the magistrate loves most to have a sworn sworn relationship.
"There are thirteen forces in the city recently, and they should take action against the Li family of Mingxinxuan. Mr. Fan may wish to pay more attention. Maybe our first cooperation will start from here."
Ji Yuan's eyes flashed and he said with seriousness...
