Chapter 31 The Same Year (Part 2)
Yu Xuan continued to persuade: "I know a restaurant with affordable prices and good dishes!"
Liu Qingyun responded in a strange way: "Okay! I have good wine!"
Bai Yujin also gave face: "Okay, apprentice, drink less wine and go back early. I will teach you some real skills tomorrow morning!"
Shui Lingbo said openly: "Go! I will go into seclusion tomorrow and I will send me off when the time comes!"
Although the Biyun Sect is only a small sect composed of more than a thousand cultivators, there are tens of thousands of people near the Biyun Sect under the protection of the Biyun Sect.
Among them are thousands of sect warriors, their families, and many of the families of fallen monks also live there, hoping to get an opportunity to ascend to the Immortal Sect again. In addition, there is a market established for monks.
For these newly-entered Qi Refining disciples, the spirit stones needed by the spiritual weapon shop in the market will make his heart beat faster, but the small restaurant serving mortals will not feel heartbroken no matter how much they drink with their wealth.
The cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage are between mortals and monks. Compared with mortals, they have achieved success and fame. For monks, they are always the lowest-level little ants.
Although the restaurant chosen by Yu Xuan is a few percent more expensive than the small secular restaurant, the conditions are good. As soon as Yu Xuan entered the door, he shouted: "Shopkeeper, take out all your signature dishes. Do we brothers have fun?"
The monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage are often far away from the worldly enjoyment, but for the monks in the Qi Refining Stage, wine, sex, wealth and energy are almost all the happiness they have left. Yu Xuan directly introduced: "Senior Brother? Do you want to ask a few girls to have fun?"
Liu Qingyun said quietly: "We are just coming out to gather together. It's boring to ask the girls to come over and have a kick. Besides, there are junior sisters here, come and bring a few big jars of wine..."
This year, Biyun Sect only recruited fifty disciples, but there were actually more than 60 people in the entrance exam. After Liu Qingyun came to the tavern, he was in his early forties. Two-thirds of them arrived, including four female monks, but the Yu sisters were missing.
Everyone looked carefully at Liu Qingyun taking out a wine gourd, and then the wine smelled so much that it felt refreshed all over. Someone couldn't help but say, "This is spiritual wine..."
Liu Qingyun filled a jar with wine gourds and shouted, "Come on one!"
This is the spiritual wine that Shui Lingbo specially blended for him to treat guests. After being absorbed by the 100-year-old spiritual wine, only more than 300 kilograms of it were left. Therefore, Shui Lingbo thought it was small in weight and too expensive when treating guests, so he bought two thousand kilograms of wine on the way and mixed it into it.
But now these Qi Refining Cultivators are praising: "It's fire-type spiritual wine! It's definitely fire-type spiritual wine!"
Spiritual wine is rare, and fire-type spiritual wine is even more rare. The fire-type spiritual wine of this year is even more rare for the Qi Refining Cultivators. They spend a few spiritual stones on their cultivation, so how can they buy spiritual wine with extra spiritual stones?
Although An Shiqing was born in a cultivation family and had seen many big scenes, he stopped watching Liu Qingyun filling up seven jars of wine and was so shocked that he couldn't help but feel shocked: "This fire nectar has been at least fifty years. Senior Brother Liu poured seven jars and didn't care at all. He really had confidence!"
As soon as the wine is in, everyone's feelings become alive and everyone introduces their origins.
Most of the more than 40 people here are from casual cultivators, some from cultivation families like An Shiqing, and several of them have entered other sects. I heard that the Biyun Sect has great prospects, so I took advantage of the sect's unpreparedness to switch to the Biyun Sect, and some of them are from wealthy families.
Xiang Yuxuan's family is the owner of a large mine, with more than a dozen ore veins and thousands of acres of land, and there are seven or eight shops in the city. He said with a loud voice: "What I practice is because my family is forced to do so! Otherwise, I will be my eldest master safely!"
"It's really difficult for the world. Our family's annual turnover of 700,000 or 800,000 taels of silver was only earned by the end of the year. It was because there was no one cultivator in the family. The government collected 60% of our mineral tax, and with the same amount of money, all the hard work of the year was gone!"
"As soon as our family inquired, as long as one monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage can produce a mine tax, the mine tax can be reduced by 20%. If a Jindan monk is produced, he will only collect a mine tax of 10% and there is no need to spend all his time to manage the government. So he was cruel and asked me, the eldest young master, to cultivate immortals!"
Someone next to him asked, "Now you are already a monk on the eighth level of Qi Refining, how much mine tax has you reduced!"
Yu Xuan took a sip of spiritual wine and praised: "Senior Brother Liu is so good to drink. I feel that spiritual power has grown a lot! Alas, the eighth level of Qi refining is nothing. Even if Qi refining is complete, it cannot be reduced by a tax. Only the foundation-building cultivator can reduce 20%!"
An Shiqing was also familiar with it: "That's right, I wish us a foundation building soon!"
This caused Yu Xuan to complain: "If you can't cultivate the truth, you won't build the foundation, nothing is it! We haven't been able to make a fortune in the Qi Refining Period. We really have to build the foundation earlier to become a human being!"
His words resonated with everyone present, and they complained all over the place, talking about the hardships of the Qi Refining Period.
"Don't say that you are not capable in the Qi Refining Period, you can't make it even if you have the ability!"
"I have been in the Purple Qi Sect. There is an old man who has the best weapon refining skills, which is stronger than the seven foundation-building stages of the Purple Qi Sect. But because he only has the eleventh level of Qi Refining, he can't even enter the outer sect!"
"Stop talking, we do the hard, dirty and tiring work, we just do the cannon fodder. When we come back, we don't even have to look at the good face..."
"I don't understand why we Qi Refining Cultivators have this status..."
Liu Qingyun also heard the taste. The difference in treatment between the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage is far greater than the strength gap between them. If the foundation is not successful, even if there is great skills and great contributions, there is no use of any use. Once the foundation is established, then Fan Jin will pass the imperial examination and fortune will come from heaven, and everything will be successful.
Yu Xuan complained the most: "I have no way back! I spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver on me in the family. If I fail to build the foundation, how can I have the right to go home?"
Liu Qingyun smiled: "You are only 32 years old this year. As long as you successfully build the foundation, you can take care of your family for at least 100 years. After all, you can charge 10 million taels of mine tax less after this hundred years!"
Yu Xuan's eyes lit up: "That's right, if I become a golden elixir, in two or three hundred years, I will have 100 million taels... Alas, if the foundation is not established, what can I do? Brother Liu, your spiritual wine is so good!"
It’s not that Liu Qingyun’s spiritual wine is good, but that these Qi Refining Cultivators are too stressed and their strings are too tight. Now relax and drink a few sips of spiritual wine. With one blow, their spiritual power has improved a lot.
Liu Qingyun said in a righteous voice: "Since we are in the same year, of course we must take care of each other and support each other to ensure that the foundation is built as soon as possible. Even if the foundation is not built, we can take care of our brothers..."
