Chapter 87
Chapter 87 Borrowing Money
When Dan Yi heard Chen Ziqi say "return" to Guiyun Palace, not "go", he suddenly jumped up and leaned into Chen Ziqi's ear and whispered: "You know you're hungry, so go back to let me taste something fresh in the evening."
Chen Ziqi almost choked by the scallions in the wonton soup. She wiped her mouth and looked at Danyi in surprise. This guy was getting more and more embarrassed. He felt that he could not fall down. Chen Ziqi smacked his lips, tilted his head and licked Danyi's earlobe, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Where do you want to taste?"
His fair ears were smoked by the heat and exclaimed transparent red. A sentence that was unknown immediately made Danyi's body heat up. Danyi lowered her eyes and took a deep breath. After biting a few bites of the bamboo rice cake, she shouldn't have teased him on the street. The weather has not cooled yet, and the restless internal strength is difficult to control.
Chen Ziqi burst out laughing and secretly grabbed Dan Yi with his hand without a spoon.
Dan Yi held it back with her backhand, and the two of them only used one hand to eat, while the other hung on their sides and pulled each other, shaking from time to time.
Eat and drink enough, and go with us to see the progress of the weapon shop. The so-called weapon shop is another plan proposed by Mr. Luo.
Jianyang City was a treasure land for sword-making a hundred years ago, and there are many sword-making masters passed down from generation to generation. Even if Jianyang is abandoned, those blacksmith shops still have business, but life is difficult.
Luo Yunsheng proposed to gather all these blacksmith shops together for Chen Ziqi to use. Whether it is making weapons for the army or making swords for sale, you will always feel more at ease in your own hands.
"Prince!" In a spacious three-entry house in the north of the city, several strong men who were busy moving things saw Chen Ziqi and immediately stopped to salute.
Chen Ziqi waved his hand and signaled them to continue. These were all blacksmiths in the city and were willing to gather here, because the prince gave them a big order, no one could complete it independently and they had to cooperate.
The moldmaker was using wood to carve molds, and a flexible carving knife flew over the wood. Soon, he dashed out a floor of wood chips and blew a breath towards the place where the wood chips gathered, revealing a clear dent, which was the shape of a half arrow.
If a vassal king wants to defend a fiefdom, he must have a strong army. Chen Ziqi has no money now and cannot afford to support a large army for the time being, so he can only take a different approach and raise an elite guard first.
Last time Danyi asked Diao Lie to kill the old woman in the cave, but Diao Lie did not look embarrassed at all. Chen Ziqi was very curious and when she came back, she asked Ying Ling how to prepare to kill the old woman.
After obtaining the permission of the palace lord, Diao Lie honestly explained the methods of killing - arrows and poison.
Eagle Peel uses the tactic of hornets to kill people. Everyone has a pair of extremely fast sleeve arrows in their hands. The arrow is highly poisonous. With the help of Qingyun Fuyao, they can shoot from all angles at the same time. There is always one who can win.
At present, this is the most effective way to deal with people with higher martial arts skills than you.
Inspired by this, Chen Ziqi was preparing to raise an elite archery specialist. If I can't beat it, I can shoot you to death! Thousands of arrows from all directions were shot at each other, and the martial arts masters were poked into sieves. The scene was very satisfying just by thinking about it.
After buying East Street, opening a weapon shop, and adding the wages reserved for the patrol battalion and the constable, Chen Ziqi quickly became short of money. Looking at the few pieces of silver left in the box, Chen Ziqi sighed deeply.
Chen Ziqi asked Feng Ling to help him find some teenagers.
The major sects have to choose apprentices, and most of them choose to leave before they are ten years old. Those who are in their teens do not have sects, but children who are not well-off have to stay at home as hard labor. Young people are not as strong as middle-aged men, so it is difficult to make money, but it is most appropriate to start practicing arrows from this age.
However, looking at the flower prediction written by Mr. Luo, Chen Ziqi only felt ache in his heart. The so-called half-old man was poor, and after these teenagers came, they had another big expense.
"There's no money?" Dan Yi lay on the bed reading with one hand on her head. When she heard her lover sigh, she raised her head and took a look.
"Well," Chen Ziqi threw down the small wooden box, walked to the bed with dejected expression, bent down, and turned his head against Danyi's chest, "Why is Yangjun spending so much money!"
"That's natural," Dan Yi closed the book, carried the twisting guy onto the bed, wrapped it in his arms and rubbed it. "Superior army has been a money-burning thing since ancient times."
The royal family is getting weaker and weaker, which is also because the tax cannot be collected and the army is constantly reduced. Because of the weakness, more land is given to the sects of the world, and the taxes that the national treasury can receive are repeatedly reduced. Without money, there is no way to support the army, and the royal family will be weaker. In this cycle, one day, the dynasty of the Chen family will overturn.
"Mr. Luo said that if you want to see the money back, you will have to wait until next year. How can I spend the past six months?" Chen Ziqi buried her face in Danyi's arms and moaned, "Is this world forcing me to sell myself?"
Dan Yi raised her eyebrows and put her hand into Chen Ziqi's underwear and gently kneaded her, "Then have you decided to sell it to?"
"I didn't think about it. I'll sell it to anyone who gives it a higher price." Chen Ziqi raised his head and thought seriously.
"This is not good, how many times should you sell it?" Dan Yi turned over and pressed the person under her, "How about selling it for one thousand taels in one night?"
"I am a real dragon bloodline, a body of gold, one thousand taels in one night?" Chen Ziqi grabbed Danyi's collar and pulled the person closer, licked his chin, "It costs at least one thousand two hundred taels."
Dan Yi couldn't help laughing, coughed lightly, and bargained seriously in Mr. Luo's tone: "One thousand two hundred taels is too expensive. Let's give it a discount. How about 1,100 taels? You know, the world is so chaotic now, there are not many buyers as generous as me."
"Ha, I won't sell it anymore!" Chen Ziqi raised his legs, kicked Dan Yi aside, turned over and rode on Dan Yi, "I'm going to have sex with you now, I won't give you a penny."
Danyi looked at him lightly, raised her hand, and scratched her itchy flesh.
"Ahhahaha...Oh, you used this trick again...hahahahaha...I was wrong, Brother Fengyuan, spare me, ah!"
In the end, the sale of the body was not completed, Chen Ziqi didn't get a penny, and was pressed on the bed and tidied it up, almost laughing.
The next day, Danyi gave him 100,000 taels.
"So much..." Chen Ziqi grabbed a thick stack of silver notes and scratched his head. Including the Zhanlu sword, Dan Yi had already given him more than 200,000 taels of silver.
"It's enough for you to hold on until next year." Dan Yi rubbed his head, which had not yet been combed, thinking in her heart that if Chen Ziqi could turn into a dragon like his ancestors, she would definitely be a fluffy and soft little dragon.
"I will pay you back when I make money." Chen Ziqi whispered, clenching the corner of her clothes. She originally wanted to take out half of it and only borrow 50,000 taels. Thinking about Jianyang's bottomless pit, he still put away all 100,000 taels.
"Okay." I wanted to say no, but I was afraid that Chen Ziqi would feel burdened, so Dan Yi responded casually.
"But I don't know when I can make money. I'm not going to have a day!" Chen Ziqi put the money in his arms and looked like a scoundrel.
“…
…” As soon as he got it, he thought about betraying the debt. Dan Yi didn’t know what to say, and he was completely in vain.
