Chapter 9 The Idea of Making Money
In the evening, the sun was about to set, and the wind and waves on the sea surface became more violent. On the sea outside the bead field, the height of the surging waves exceeded three meters.
Zhang Tie, who had been in the sea for the whole day, showed his head from the water, and his whole body heaved up and down with the waves. Today's wind and waves are a bit rare. Zhang Tie raised his head from the water, and the waves on all sides were like a wall. After he caught his sight, Zhang Tie's body came to the crest of the waves after two times of ups and downs with the waves, and he could clearly see the situation of the castle in the distance.
On the highest point of the castle in the distance, orange peace lights have been hung.
Looking at the safety lanterns hung on the high part of the castle in Changfengzhuchang in the distance, Zhang Tiecai leisurely made a splash on the waves, dived into the water again, and swam slowly towards the castle.
Although the sea is not quiet, compared to the sea surface, the sea below 30 meters can only be described as calm.
Zhang Tie didn't make much effort. After sensing an undercurrent, he dived into that undercurrent, and was pushed towards the shore by the undercurrent in the sea.
After the body's sensitivity to water flow increased nine times, Zhang Tie slowly mastered this underwater skill. This underwater skill allows Zhang Tie to easily sense the undercurrent and the general direction of the undercurrent in the sea around his body, and after entering the undercurrent, the whole person can quickly integrate into the power of the undercurrent.
The feeling of blending into the undercurrent is very good. That kind of feeling makes Zhang Tie feel that he is not swimming in the sea, but gliding in the sky like a bird.
This skill allowed Zhang Tie to slightly touch the wonderful corner of the vast wireless world of the sea.
There are countless undercurrents in the ocean, and there are various reasons for the formation of those undercurrents. Many factors such as temperature in seawater, humidity density, tides, seasons, seabed topography, sea surface weather, geological activity, planet rotation, and moon phase changes in the sky are all factors. The cause of the undercurrent.
There are large and small undercurrents in the sea. The large undercurrents will form ocean currents under the sea surface. Ocean currents can be hundreds of thousands of kilometers long, while there are countless small undercurrents. Some are branches of large undercurrents, and some follow along Annihilation, changeable.
These large and small undercurrents in the ocean give the sea more layers and a sense of mystery, and also constitute this colorful and mysterious underwater world.
Zhang Tie feels that these undercurrents in the ocean are like the wind on land swimming in the undercurrent, like running in the wind. The joyful feeling of running like a wolf.
When this undercurrent sent Zhang Tie leisurely to a place not far from the castle, Zhang Tie nimbly swam out of the undercurrent like a fish, and sneaked into the underground of the castle after a while. Shuikou.
With a splash, Zhang Tie slapped the surface of the water lightly with both hands, and Zhang Tie jumped directly from the water to the shore of the pool.
As soon as Zhang Tie came up, he found that Lao Chen and Chu Wenqiang were below. Chu Wenqiang and others were all dressed, but they hadn't left yet. Seeing Zhang Tie emerge from the water, several people turned their heads together and looked at Zhang Tie with burning eyes.
"Why, everyone hasn't left yet!" Zhang Tie walked under the flushing water pipe while taking off his diving suit, turned on the water pipe, and began to wash his body.
The salinity of the seawater is relatively high. If you don’t wash it after coming up, the seawater will form salt particles and stick to your skin, and the seawater near the shore has a fishy smell, so everyone has to take a bath after the mission is over every day before going up.
It wasn't until Zhang Tie finished taking a shower and dried his diving suit that Zhang Tie realized that those people were all staring at him without saying a word, with ambiguous and weird expressions. Old Chen even rubbed his chin with one hand. The circle of beard, eyes unblinking.
Although he had bare his buttocks countless times in front of these people, at this moment, seeing the playful expressions on the faces of those people, Zhang Tie still suddenly felt that the chrysanthemum tightened, and a layer of goose bumps suddenly appeared on his body.
Zhang Tie got dressed as quickly as possible, "Ah, why don't you go, then I'll go first!"
"Wait a minute!" Old Chen said.
"What's up?"
"The thing you brewed that you brought today, can you bring some more tomorrow?" Old Chen said.
"It's best to bring more!" Yang Yuankang added beside him.
Zhang Tie thought about it for a few times, "There are not many left of that thing, if you want it, I can only find time to do it again, but it may take a little longer, you just wait for me. To tell me this?"
"Exactly this!" Old Chen Yi said while rubbing his knees, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face, "I don't know why, after drinking the thing you brought in the morning, my rheumatism all day The disease has been relieved a lot, and after drinking it for a short time, the knee pain disappeared, and the whole person feels very comfortable all day! So, I wonder if you can bring some more tomorrow..."
"The few of us also feel a little strange. After drinking the thing you brought today, our energy is stronger than before throughout the day. At noon, we didn't feel too hungry, so we persisted until now!" Zhang Lin also had a look on his face. Said suspiciously.
"At first, I thought it was just my feeling. I didn't expect to chat with everyone after I came back, and found that their condition today is much better than usual!" Chu Wenqiang added on the side.
Yang Yuankang also nodded.
Zhang Tie's heart was shocked. During this period of time, because his strength improved relatively quickly, and he had eaten a bunch of wild wolf seven-power fruits before, his energy and physical strength were abnormally abundant, so although he felt that his physical condition was relatively good during this period of time , but didn't think about other places. I didn't expect that Lao Chen and Yang Yuankang, who ate this food for the first time, would feel so obvious.
Seeing that Zhang Tie didn't speak, Lao Chen thought that Zhang Tie was in a bit of trouble.
"Zhang Tie, I don't know if it's expensive or not. If it's really not good, I'll pay you to buy a bottle!" Old Chen was so impressed by the feeling of nectar on his body after drinking that thing. It feels a hundred times better than drinking medicine, so even if you pay for a little, Lao Chen is willing to
The elder Chen spent a lot of money to see this rheumatism.
"Ha, Lao Chen, look at what you said, how can I ask for your money, you go find a bottle for things, and I will bring you a bottle tomorrow to try!" Zhang Tie waved his hand and said boldly .
Old Chen laughed all of a sudden, and the wrinkles on his dark face stretched out, "Okay, I'll find a bottle right away!"
After saying this, Lao Chen quickly went up the stairs to find the bottle.
"By the way, Zhang Tie, what are those?" Chu Wenqiang asked curiously.
"Those things are brewed by me using various fruits and other raw materials and a secret method!"
Zhang Tie knew that it was his Yuanneng Lingqi yeast that made the things he brewed produce extraordinary effects, but the brewing process was not complicated and the cost was not high, and anyone could learn it immediately.
If you tell Chu Wenqiang they are yeast solution, Chu Wenqiang and the others might try brewing it themselves out of curiosity, but if it doesn’t have such an effect after trying brewing, they will definitely blame themselves for not telling the truth and deliberately deceive them with lies .
Therefore, it is better to tell them that this is a secret from the beginning, let them understand the difficulty of making this, and save yourself some trouble in the future. Anyway, Yuanneng Reiki yeast is similar to the secret biography, and Zhang Tie didn't intend to share it with others selflessly.
Hearing what Zhang Tie said, there was no strange look on the faces of Chu Wenqiang and the others, and they all had such expressions. Because it is a secret, several people are embarrassed to ask Zhang Tie the process and method of brewing that thing.
Several people came to the ground from the basement of the castle, and Lao Chen had already found the bottle. It was a delicate silver-plated jug that could hold more than 300 milliliters.
After taking the small jug that Lao Chen had found, chatting with a few people, and promising Chu Wenqiang and the others to bring some of that solution for them to try tomorrow, Zhang Tie also left Changfeng Bead Field .
As usual, after leaving Changfeng Zhuchang, Zhang Tie came to the fish market near the pier on the island. Before the fish market closed, he bought all the sand scales in the fish market for less than ten silver coins. Come free.
In the past few months, because Zhang Tie came here almost every day, almost all the fish vendors in the fish market knew him. Zhang Tie is generous with his purchases, he doesn't bargain or be picky, and even if he suffers a small loss, he just smiles and lets it go, so many stall owners in the fish market leave sand scales every day, waiting for Zhang Tie to come.
Zhang Tie had just poured the last bucket of sand scales into the sea. Seeing those little silver fish happily returning to the sea one by one, Zhang Tie felt an indescribable joy in his heart. In order to eat fruit, and now, each release has gradually become a kind of enjoyment for Zhang Tie.
It's an unrivaled treat.
Every time, Zhang Tie could clearly feel those little fishes cheering for freedom the moment they returned to the sea from the bucket, the joy of being reborn, and their nostalgia for life and the sea. Such emotions would be passed on to Zhang Tie. On the body, it will make Zhang Tie feel that every time he is released, it is a strange illusion that a part of himself is imprisoned.
There were a few small sand scales, after entering the sea, they did not run away immediately, but turned head to tail in a circle in front of Zhang Tie's feet underwater, as if to express their gratitude to Zhang Tie. This surprised Zhang Tie secretly.
"Hey, I didn't expect these little things to circle in the water?"
A voice suddenly came from the side, Zhang Tie turned his head, and found an old man squatting beside him at some point.
The old man seemed to be an old beggar, his clothes were ragged, his hair and beard were tangled together, revealing a dirty and ageless face.
"Young man, why do you think these fish are circling in the water?" The old beggar turned his head and asked Zhang Tie seriously.
This question stunned Zhang Tie for a moment. Zhang Tie didn't know how to answer. After thinking about it, Zhang Tie said, "I guess they are happy because they can go home!"
"Go home?" The word made the old beggar's eyes confused for a moment. The old beggar's clear and bright eyes became cloudy and confused after hearing this word.
"Go home... go home... go home, where is my home, ah, why don't I have a home... fish have a home, why do I have no home? Why am I not as good as a fish... my home Well, why can’t I remember, ah..." The old beggar started holding his head and cried out in pain, then stood up, turned around and ran away madly...
The old beggar seemed to have mental problems, he was a poor man, Zhang Tie shook his head, put away the bucket, and returned to the fish market.
After leaving the dock area, Zhang Tie didn't go back to Qianlong Hall immediately, but came to Bailong Town slowly.
When Zhang Tie came to Bailong Town, it was completely dark.
Compared with the other towns built around the Dragon Cave on the sea island, Bailong Town appears to be a bit more commonplace. Almost half of the ordinary people on the island live in Bailong Town.
Zhang Tie didn't expect that the solutions he brewed would be noticed all of a sudden today. Now that they have been noticed, there is some aftermath work to be done.
I live in the Songtao Pavilion of Lingtianyuan, and I can't hide many things in the place where I live. I can't change those solutions every time for no reason. If this is the case, the secret of the Black Iron Fort will be revealed sooner or later. One day it will be revealed.
Zhang Tie, who has always been cautious, naturally wants to make up for this loophole. Since he has said that those solutions are brewed by himself, he must make the appearance quietly. Anyway, I have been in Qianlongtang for so long, and it is impossible for anyone to find out when I brewed a can of stuff.
Zhang Tie walked around Bailong Town, and he knew it in his heart.
Zhang Tie first came to a carpenter's shop in Bailong Town, spent two silver coins, and bought a wooden box that was easy to carry in the hand, then went around again, came to the pottery shop in the town, spent more than ten He bought a clay pot that could hold 20 to 30 kilograms of solution. After arriving at a secluded place, Zhang Tie put the pot in a box, and then he carried the box and prepared to return to Qianlongtang.
It seems easier to keep the clay pots in the Black Iron Fortress, but Zhang Tie doesn't want to expose his abilities easily in a place like Qianlong Island where there are experts everywhere, so he pays great attention to details.
If he lost a clay pot out of thin air when he thought no one was there, but in fact this scene happened to be seen by someone, Zhang Tie really didn't know what would happen next.
Therefore, the details determine success or failure, and it is always good to be careful. I bought two things in the town, and put the two things together for easy handling. That's a matter of course, even if someone sees it, I won't feel strange. And even if the people in Qianlongtang find themselves carrying a box back, they will never see through the things in the box.
Just as Zhang Tie was about to leave Bailong Town, when the door of a family's house on the side of the road opened, a person was carried and thrown out of the door by several strong servants.
"Bah, you dead beggar, this is Zhao's Mansion in Bailong Town, not yours, don't come here to misidentify your relatives, I've seen a lot of liars like you, and our master has never had a number one relative like you, Next time you ask for food, go elsewhere!"
A man who looked like a housekeeper pointed at the person who was thrown out and cursed. After scolding the beggar, the housekeeper turned his head and scolded the servants, "How do you guard the door? Are you blind? Why are you at home? I don't even know when such a stinky beggar came in. This stinky beggar said that the Zhao Mansion is his home, and he swaggered all the way to the West Wing before being seen by the maids at home. Your monthly money for this month will be halved!"
Several servants were scolded to the point of dejection. As soon as the butler entered, two servants were so angry that they wanted to rush over and beat the beggar who was thrown out to sit on the ground, but they were quickly stopped by the two people next to them.
"Forget it, this old beggar doesn't have any flesh. If you beat him to death at the door of your house, it would be unlucky and troublesome!"
"Damn it, the few of us have been looking at the door for a whole day, who knows how this old beggar got in!" A servant said cursingly, and finally did not do anything to the old beggar.
"I just said that the dog hole left in the yard at home is a bit big, and it needs to be blocked up some other day!"
Several servants said, walked into the gate one after another, and then closed the gate with a bang.
Only the old beggar was sitting alone on the street in front of the gate of the house marked Zhao Mansion, pulling his hair in pain, "Where is my home?... Isn't my home Zhao Mansion? It's all gone... ah!"
This was exactly what Zhang Tie saw just now, and Zhang Tie didn't expect to meet that old beggar here again.
Seeing the old beggar sitting alone on the street looking for his home in a daze after dark, Zhang Tie felt inexplicably sour in his heart. Zhang Tie walked over and touched the purse on his body. It contained a few scattered expenses that Zhang Tie usually carried with him. There were a total of two gold coins, dozens of silver coins, and more than ten copper coins.
Originally, Zhang Tie wanted to take some change out of it, but after seeing the old beggar's appearance, he finally took out the whole purse, squatted down in front of the old beggar, and put it in the old beggar's hand.
Even with the money bag in his hand, the old beggar still didn't notice it, and muttered to himself with blank eyes. Seeing the old beggar like this, Zhang Tie simply stuffed the money bag into the old beggar's lapel .
After doing this, Zhang Tie sighed secretly when he stood up, and after looking at the old beggar for the last time, he returned to Qianlong Hall.
After returning to Room No. 7 of Xuanzi in Qianlong Pavilion alone, Zhang Tie opened the box, took out the clay pot inside, took it to the water pipe to clean it, and then came to the practice room with the pot in his arms. , It was as if an invisible spring had appeared in the originally empty pottery pot. In more than ten seconds, those special solutions filled the pottery pot by two-thirds, about ten kilograms.
Smelling the never-ending light fragrance in this new clay pot, Zhang Tie clapped his hands and closed the pot. From now on, the contents of that pot will be freshly brewed after he came to Qianlongtang Yes, I have been drinking the contents of this clay pot these days, I have already drank one-third, and there are still two-thirds left.
After filling up Lao Chen's wine jug and his own water jug, Zhang Tie looked at the liquid, and a thought came to his mind—wondering whether he could use this thing to make money?
If this thing can make money, then my gold coins and expenses in Qianlongtang will be settled in the future!
Maybe... you can try...
Just a few people from Lao Chen can confirm the effect of this thing... Monthly ticket, your support is my biggest motivation.)
