Chapter 1973: Business Is Business

It was another ordinary day.

The Baiyujing Restaurant was doing a booming business.

Lian Yuchan worked diligently for an hour and then went upstairs.

She walked past the solemn monk Jingli sitting in the middle of the stairs on the tenth floor, passed by Bai Yuxia who was breathing on the eleventh floor, and went straight to the top floor to find Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang was in the study.

He leaned on the recliner by the window, bathed in the sun, and read a book leisurely.

Lian Yuchan knocked on the door gently, then stood at the door of the study, looking at the very leisurely Dongjia: "It's time."

Jiang Wang said "Oh": "I'll go over after I finish reading this page."

Lian Yuchan certainly knew that Dongjia was quick to learn and never put down his books. After all, he could be seen reading every day. Now that they were familiar with each other, she asked with a little curiosity: "My Lord... What book is Dongjia reading?"

She was used to life in Xingyueyuan, but she always called out "My Lord" by accident. Being in Xiangguo, it was really hard not to be impressed by "Wu'an Hou".

Jiang Wang casually lifted the book in his hand so that Lian Yuchan could see the cover clearly.

"The Law of All Ages?"

Lian Yuchan read it out and was immediately in awe.

This is a classic of law!

Dongjia was once the first in military merit among the young generation of the nations, and his military strategy must be impeccable. He is also good friends with Liuli Buddhist disciple Jingli, and they eat and live together, so he has a deep understanding of Buddhism. Xu Xiangqian from Qingya Academy is known as the twin heroes of him, and Confucianism should not be difficult for him. Now he is also dabbling in the study of the Legalists, he is really a versatile person.

The owner of Baiyujing Restaurant said calmly: "This book is called "The Law of All Ages", but the whole book is about the non-existence of the law of all ages. It is a classic that can explain the law in an interesting way. I always read it and it is always new. Wei Shu of Qin State also highly praised this classic and quoted it many times in public."

"Yes." Lian Yuchan said with emotion: "The Law of All Ages was written by Xue Gui, the master of the Legalists in the Middle Ages. He was the first to stand up and say that the law set by the Legalists was no longer suitable for the times, which set off a legal reform. It broke the trend of worshipping the ancients, laid the tone of the Legalists' "innovation", and became a model for later generations of scholars. My father often said that this "The Law of All Ages" is a must-read for every scholar who is interested in law."

Good guy, a small country like Xiang State has to work so hard to study?

"The Law of All Ages" is actually the family study of the Lian family.

Wasn't Lian Jingzhi, the great pillar of Xiang State, a military strategist? !

Mr. Jiang put the book down silently.

Lian Yuchan was still actively discussing, resonating with his confidant: "Wei Shu is also a great scholar of law, a representative of Qin law. He is said to be a descendant of Wei Xing. In the Middle Ages, Wei Xing debated with Xue Gui on law, and lost three times, which led to the collapse of his path and he was unable to transcend. His descendants were able to learn from Xue Gui, which shows his ability! I didn't expect that the boss also knew about Wei, he is really knowledgeable."

The name Wei Xing sounds so familiar!

Jiang Wang kept a calm face, scratched his head and thought for a while, and finally gave up, smiling bitterly: "I am not knowledgeable, but I know my shortcomings and work hard to make up for them."

After all, Lian Yuchan is not a bad friend like Chong Xuan Pang and Xu Gao'e, and Jiang is embarrassed to continue to praise himself. He said sincerely: "I was born in a not very prosperous town. People there work from sunrise to sunset and don't know what it means to be extraordinary. Many people have never left that town in their lives.

My father treated me very well, provided me with food and clothing, and taught me to be an honest person.

As for me, I have loved swordsmanship since I was a child. My dream is to fly freely in the sky with a sword. My father never said that I was wishful thinking, nor did he say that we were born in humble families and should not dream. He only told me that if I really like it, I must work hard and persist.

But he only sells medicinal materials and knows some herbs. He knows nothing about cultivation. He spent a lot of money to buy me a few sword manuals, and then personally made some ointments for bruises and sprains. That's all he could do.

I have no famous teacher to teach me, and no famous manual can learn , I would only bury my head in practice and ponder over and over again.

There were no books to read at home except a few books for literacy and a few illustrated books of medicinal materials. I didn't like to read at that time. A good-for-nothing is a scholar!

Now I have experienced some things, taken some detours, and have reached adulthood. Facing the heroes of the world, I often feel ashamed. Miss Yuchan, you are talking about Wei Xing, but I don't know who Wei Xing is. I have only seen the name Wei Shu in history books.

I have traveled thousands of miles, but my horizons are still not broad enough, and I often regret that I am shallow and ignorant. I only regret that I don't have enough time, and I can't make the best of a moment. I can only study hard, practice hard, and supplement my knowledge from time to time, so that I won't be complacent and abandoned by the world in the end. "

Lian Yuchan was moved for a moment.

She admired in her heart, but she couldn't express it in words.

Speaking of which, Lian Yuchan is also a child of destiny, the number one figure in Xiangguo. But there are often limitations of birth. If you are born in a country with ten thousand chariots and a prosperous family, you should not stop there, and you should also be able to compete for the Yellow River.

But when it comes to birth, she grew up reading hundreds of classics, and "The Book of Eternal Life" is just one of them, but Jiang Wang can only recognize a few simple words. Her father is a great pillar of the country, wise and proficient in both civil and military affairs. Jiang Wang's father is a small medicinal material merchant, with only some simple life principles. She has studied under famous teachers since she was a child, while Jiang Wang can only read a few nameless sword manuals.

But who is the peerless hero today?

Even if Jiang Wang died today, he would have been able to leave his name in history. And he is still forging ahead and working hard.

Lian Yuchan, Lian Yuchan, how can you complain and complain about yourself?

Every day at the Si hour, everyone in Baiyujing Restaurant gathers together to discuss cultivation. Usually Jiang Wang or Jingli raises a cultivation question worth thinking about, and then everyone brainstorms and collide with inspiration.

The Ximing who rents here will also participate, without missing a single one.

Bai Yuxia often jokes that this is the gathering of the best restaurant in the world.

In terms of dishes, although Baiyujing Restaurant has invited many chefs, they are basically from various small countries and cannot be ranked in the world.

In terms of drinks, Baiyujing Restaurant only kills rich people and is still very kind to ordinary drinkers. But the grade is definitely not there.

But if we talk about the talents of the restaurant... it can be called the best restaurant in the world!

Jiang Wang is the big boss, and his main goal is to delegate power.

Huanghe Tianjiao Bai Yuxia is in charge of the restaurant's affairs and accounts.

Rongguo's first pride Lin Xian chops wood and serves as a thug in the restaurant.

Lian Yuchan, the daughter of Xiangguo's great pillar, serves dishes and serves as the boss's maid.

The little holy monk Jingli of the Hanging Temple... opened a restaurant sideline business under the instigation of the shopkeeper Bai.

He sat on the stairs from the tenth floor to the eleventh floor, with a banner on each side.

The left one said: Glass Buddha.

The right one said: Sincerely consecrate.

Don't be unwilling.

He only took ten orders a day, and after that he rolled up the banner and went back upstairs to meditate.

Only the super VIPs of the restaurant, who ate from the first floor to the tenth floor and spent lavishly on the tenth floor, had the opportunity to get a spot through lottery and be qualified to spend money to consecrate!

The consecration is not limited to any items. Buddha said that all beings are equal, and anything can be used for consecration.

If you really don't bring anything, the restaurant also has a variety of souvenirs.

Of course, the prices vary.

The restaurant's business is getting better day by day, and everyone's practice has also benefited.

For everyone who attended the meeting, this is a rare happy time. There is no intrigue, no resentment, everyone just works simply, lives simply, and practices simply.

In this complex world, simplicity is not simple.

The Si-hour practice meeting ended, and the restaurant business peaked at noon. Everyone was busy, and Jiang Wang continued to practice.

Ximing did not leave today. He sat there meticulously, looking at Jiang Wang and said, "Do you live like this every day?"

While adjusting the Dao Yuan, Jiang Wang said casually, "How to live?"

"Practice, practice, practice, discuss practice, and practice." Ximing said, "This is what I have seen these days."

Jiang Wang thought for a while, "It seems so."

He flicked a wisp of jade-colored sword energy, which was Bai Yuxia's jade-cutting sword finger: "Do you think the method I just used to crack this sword finger is not simple enough? I always feel that I have overlooked something."

Ximing was a little helpless: "... Maybe you don't have to crack it perfectly, just break his spiritual platform with the second finger. His cultivation is not enough, so he left a gap here."

Jiang Wang flicked another wisp of snow-colored sword energy, and The jade-colored sword energy fought each other, and he said very attentively: "What if his cultivation is enough?"

Xi Ming said directly: "Pressure him, let his second finger have more murderous aura, and it will be difficult to connect with the third finger. Then it will be another opportunity."

"The jade-cutting sword finger is indeed a killing technique that tests precise control." Jiang Wang stared at the fighting sword energy: "You have a very direct way of thinking, which is very rare."

Xi Ming said lightly: "You are thinking about how to spar, and I am thinking about how to kill him, that's all."

Jiang Wang clenched his palms and crushed the two sword energies in his palms. He slowly turned his head and looked at Xi Ming's somewhat cold face: "Why do you want to think about how to kill him?"

Xi Ming said calmly: "This is my way of thinking."

"Your way of thinking is very dangerous." Jiang Wang said.

Xi Ming said: "So my name is Xi Ming."

"I forgot to ask." Jiang Wang said: "What business do you come to Xingyueyuan for? I see you go out at noon and come back at night every day, you seem very busy."

Xi Ming smiled insincerely: "Don't you wait for me to find a suitable time?"

Jiang Wang shrugged: "I am a person who depends on my mood for everything. This is especially true recently."

Xi Ming said in a firm tone: "You are not afraid of danger, but you are afraid that your friends will encounter danger. Don't worry, I am not interested in Bai Yuxia."

Jiang Wang said: "Sometimes people have different definitions of danger. So So what are you interested in?"

"Let me answer your previous question." Ximing said: "I came to Xingyueyuan to be responsible for the business of Qianji Tower."

Jiang Wang sighed: "I really thought you were a merchant, so we could talk more."

Ximing said in a relaxed tone: "It's not much different. I do business all year round and don't deal with those mechanisms. Moreover, my family's master is called the True Lord of Copper Stinky... There is nothing purer than money in the world, which shows that the merchant's orthodoxy is in Jucheng."

Qianji Tower is the world's number one merchant pavilion, and behind it stands the Mo Clan.

It is Jucheng's industry, so there are endless treasures, all kinds of puppets, and mechanisms to meet various needs...

The Mo family master Qian Jinhua is called the True Lord of Copper Stinky, which is a derogatory name, referring to his rebellion against the Mo family's path and the long-standing spirit of the Mo family.

It stands to reason that it is a good weapon for others to attack Mo family disciples. Your master is not pure enough, so what kind of Mo family are you?

But Xi Ming's attitude of being proud of himself was indeed something that people could not take as an offense.

Of course, Jiang Wang did not care about these things, and only asked: "What is your relationship with Xi Xiangyi?"

The girl he met outside the city of Bushu two years ago saw the extraordinaryness of the Ruyi Immortal Clothes at a glance and wanted to buy it with a large sum of money. Later, he really got the inheritance from the Ruyi Immortal Clothes.

Later, he knew that the short-haired girl with oil paint on her face was a genius girl of the Mohist School, the operator of the Mohist School's real-level puppet Minggui, and one of the two real-level combat forces who captured Huang Jinmo.

And he still doesn't know where his senior brother Zhu Weiwo went.

He asked too many people to ask, but none of them had an answer. He checked too many clues, but in the end they all proved to be unrelated. Lian Que has been asked to help repair the Xinjin Gun, but there has been no news of the proud man of Hanxing Poxiao.

When he passed by Xi Xiangyi that time, he never thought that the Bushu City he left behind would collapse from then on and he would never see it again.

Xi Ming was silent for a long time, and said: "I regard myself as her brother."

"As?"

"We are not related by blood, she is an orphan, and so am I."

"So what is the purpose of your coming to the restaurant?" Jiang Wang asked.

Xi Ming said: "I did happen to come to Xingyueyuan to do business. I heard that she had seen you and wanted to buy your Ruyi Fairy Clothes, so I came to see you on the way... Maybe you are willing to sell it now? She is a very pure child. She has no interest in the inheritance of Ruyi Fairy Palace, but is just curious about the production method of this fairy clothes. I will give you a suitable price."

Jiang Wang looked at him and said slowly: "Zhu Weiwo, who disappeared after the battle in Bushu City two years ago, is my senior brother and someone I have always admired. Huang Jinmo, who was captured by you without any reason, is my sister-in-law."

Xi Ming said: "She killed Mo Jingyu, a genius of my Mo family, and Tiangong Zhenren just took her back for investigation."

"It's been two years, have you found any results?" Jiang Wang asked.

Xi Ming said, "It's still under investigation."

Jiang Wang raised his hand and said, "I swear in my name, Jiang Wang, that Mo Jingyu's death has nothing to do with Huang Jinmo and Zhu Weiwo. Zhu Weiwo will never deny the person he killed."

"I believe you." Xi Ming looked at him seriously, "But I believe you is useless."

Jiang Wang put down his hand. This was indeed unnecessary. He had been childish once when he met Beigong Ke of Yongguo outside the city of Bushu.

He turned and picked up the blue shirt on his body: "I have thought of a suitable price for this Ruyi Fairy Clothes."

Xi Ming shook his head, "This is not something I can decide."

Jiang Wang put down his hand and said, "You can't live here anymore."

"Why?" Xi Ming asked him, "Didn't you say you can talk about anything?"

Jiang Wang said, "This is not allowed."

"Okay!" Xi Ming spread his hands, "Let's talk about business. I have paid the rent for today and will move out tomorrow morning."

Jiang Wang said, "Let's talk about business."
