Take the farm down to earth

Chapter 229 Take what you need
"Duke Liu Yuan, the prince is the younger brother of His Majesty's mother and compatriots. Since you see the problem, you should hurry up and rescue the prince."

King Zhongshun was moved when he saw Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong throwing themselves down and kneeling in front of Shi Zhongkui begging him to save him.

But they didn't know that Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong were deeply afraid that his bad luck would be transferred to themselves after Shi Zhongkui said it.

King Zhongshun bowed deeply again, "Bo Qian, Xiao Wang has nothing to repay you, and I am willing to give you a Zhuangzi with a hundred hectares of fertile land in Tongzhou."

Shi Zhongkui almost choked on these words.

One hundred hectares is ten thousand mu, equal to a rectangle 6.667 kilometers long and one kilometer wide.

If it is true what King Zhongshun said, then Zhuangzi is good land, worth at least 15 to 20 taels of silver.

Moreover, mature farms and newly opened wasteland are definitely two different things.

Even if the wasteland has sufficient water sources, it will take two or three years of construction to gradually improve.

In addition to the required labor and farm labor, there will definitely be troubles.

Shi Zhongkui secretly sighed that your life is really valuable, and you are rich enough.

Then he smiled at the corner of his mouth, although he wanted it in his heart, he still had to refuse it.

But although he refused, he knew in his heart that if King Zhongshun was not stupid, he would definitely give the land deed afterwards.

And in order to avoid trouble, I must send it back.

After that, the emperor and the Supreme Emperor might intervene, and they had to give him this Zhuangzi.

In order not to ask myself in the future, I will find excuses to shirk.

And if you can use money and acres of land to repay favors, not to mention the emperor and the emperor, even King Zhongshun would think it is the most cost-effective.

Seeing that Shi Zhongkui didn't want it, King Zhongshun was anxious.

Shi Zhongkui waved his hand, facing King Zhongshun with the Shanchuan Jinxiu fan in his hand.

When King Zhongshun shrank his pupils and almost backed away in fright, Shi Zhongkui shouted, "Nie Zhan, I have said so much, just waiting for you to come out by yourself.

But since you are stubborn and lucky, no wonder I took action. "

Shi Zhongkui slapped the Jinxiu fan a few times, and the yin energy that was released by the fisherman's ghost and invaded King Zhongshun's body was drawn out like running water.

Seeing the black air mass coming out of his body, King Zhongshun dared not speak or move around, he could only resist his fear, stood upright and let Shi Zhongkui cast spells.

Then the cloud of Yin Qi gathered in the air, and slowly transformed into a little ghost with long horns, a ferocious face, and green hair all over his body, and he grinned at Shi Zhongkui.

In this situation, Xia Shouzhong and Dai Quan, who were immediately frightened, scrambled and hid behind Shi Zhongkui.

King Zhongshun plopped and sat down on the ground.

He secretly thought that he shouldn't stand out in front of the emperor and the Supreme Emperor, and then thought that it was fortunate that he had listened to Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong's words and came to see Shi Zhongkui first.

If I followed my previous intention and waited until Zishi to go to the Town God's Temple, maybe the green-haired evil spirit would wake up and eat me at Zishi.

Then King Zhongshun cursed those celestial masters again in his heart for being unreliable.

There was clearly an evil ghost formed by bad luck on his body, but those magic tools didn't respond at all.

Thinking about it this way, he suddenly felt the huge pain caused by the burns on his waist and neck, and King Zhongshun became even more annoyed.

Seeing King Zhongshun's constantly changing expression, Shi Zhongkui couldn't help laughing inwardly, making you unbelievable and wanting to learn more.

It's all right now, from now on, King Zhongshun will have to put spells on the place where he sleeps, and place some magical instruments before he dares to sleep.

And he definitely didn't dare to fight against himself.

Shi Zhongkui smiled inwardly, the splendid fan in his hand moved again, and the four ghost messengers appeared again.

With a bundle of chains, he didn't want to drag the green-haired kid into the fan as easily as he had caught the fisherman ghost before.

After several fights, it ended in a tie.

King Zhongshun, Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong were shocked.

Shi Zhongkui waved his fan again, and four ghost messengers appeared again, and finally suppressed the green-haired kid.

Then a few talismans flew out of his hand, and surrounded the fighting ghost messenger and the little ghost with a Liujia trapped spirit formation, and only then did he truly subdue the little ghost.

And this performance was of course Shi Zhongkui's intention.

But in the eyes of King Zhongshun, Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong, this green-haired evil spirit must be much more powerful than the previous evil spirits.

So that the three of them suddenly had the idea that it is no wonder that the magic weapon given by the celestial master would not be able to find it.

When the ghost messenger dragged the green-haired kid into the brocade fan, the eyes of Zhongshun Wang and the three were immediately attracted by the charm that radiated golden light suspended in the air.

Xia Shouzhong rolled his eyes, although he got a peach charm token from Shi Zhongkui, but the charm looked like a good thing, of course he wanted one or two.

He was not in a hurry to stand up, and crawled in front of Shi Zhongkui.

He said flatteringly, "Duke Liu Yuan, although you have subdued that green-haired evil spirit.

But the prince was possessed by him after all, and I beg you to think of a way to help him replenish his vitality.

It is best to give the prince a few more spells, so that when he goes to the underworld to inquire about the case later, the prince will be approached by Yin Qi or bad luck. "

King Zhongshun wished he could kiss Xia Shouzhong a few times.

Just now, it was the golden formation formed by these spells that truly subdued the evil spirit.

Naturally, he also knew that this spell was a good thing.

And Xia Shouzhong's thoughts were very simple, if Shi Zhongkui really gave King Zhongshun the charm, then he would have the cheek to beg for one, and he would have a chance to get one or two.

Dai Quan knew what Xia Shouzhong was thinking when he saw Xia Shouzhong's expression.

And thinking that he is also pleading for King Zhongshun, kneeling is not only not ashamed, but it will leave a good impression on King Zhongshun.

In case it got to the ears of the Supreme Emperor, the old emperor thought that this was kneeling for his own son, so naturally he had merit but nothing wrong.

However, the old eunuch also had other thoughts, "Duke Liu Yuan, my lord has always been close to nobles from various families, and Shi Guangzhu from Shan Guogong's mansion is still a friend for more than ten years.

And really counting, because of the relationship between the concubine Yuan and the concubine in the palace, you and the prince are still relatives. "

"Yes, yes, yes, Xiao Wang has always been respectful to Concubine Yuan, and he also has admiration for Duke Ning Rong. If it weren't for Jia Zhen's bastard, this king would have wanted to make friends with other children of the Jia family.

As for Shi Kwang-soo, Ben Wang also listened to operas and drank flower wine with him last month. "

King Zhongshun didn't have the time to think about it this time. He had always thought about how to help the emperor settle the deficit of the household department.

As for the shortfall in payment, the Jia family was not the one who borrowed the most money because they had just built the Grand View Garden.

If you really want to pay it back, you can still pay it back by gritting your teeth.

But the historians of Mother Jia's natal family were definitely out of luck.

As for other nobles, [-]% must not be repaid, and [-]% must be pawned with treasures at home and sold fields to repay.

Dai Quan said that if King Zhongshun troubled Xungui in the future, he would just slap himself in the face.

Moreover, in front of Shi Zhongkui, he said that he had a good impression and friendship with Ningrong and Shan Guogong's mansions. If he wanted to go back on his word, he had to think carefully about how much it would cost to offend Shi Zhongkui.

When Shi Zhongkui heard that he only mentioned Jia Lian, he knew that although King Zhongshun had a domineering style in the past, he also knew human relations, so naturally he was not ashamed of Jia Zhen's character.

As for Jia Amnesty, they didn't mention it at all, so as not to offend the sons-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion.

Among the Jia family, the most disgusting ones are Jia Zhen and Jia She.

Shi Zhongkui's attitude towards King Zhongshun couldn't help but improve a lot.

After thinking for a while, with a thought, the purple, gold and red gourd appeared out of thin air, suspended in the air.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Zhongkui waved to a tea bowl, and the tea bowl automatically floated to the side of the gourd, catching the Chenghuang medicinal wine poured from the gourd.

For King Zhongshun, he had already drank no less than ten catties of wine, and he recognized it just by smelling it.

He was thinking that Shi Zhongkui was not omnipotent, but found that the precious gourd finally produced a drop of crystal clear wine that faintly exuded glory.

King Zhongshun, Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong immediately understood that this was the real good thing.

And it must be a secret.

But to Shi Zhongkui, a drop of spirit peach wine is insignificant.

In the afternoon, Liu Yu'er and Chang Baiyu were rewarded with one catty each.

And even so, the spirit peach wine I made with 8 original spirit peaches and a thousand catties of Chenghuang medicinal wine was still more than 984 catties.

Of course, this is also because Shi Zhongkui has a lot of good things in his hands, otherwise Shi Zhongkui would definitely be reluctant to part with this drop of spirit peach wine a few days ago.

When King Zhongshun saw the tea bowl flying in front of him, he didn't hesitate at all, let alone whether there would be any problem with the wine, so he immediately took a sip and drank it.

After just a few breaths, I felt like my stomach was on fire, and then I felt refreshed.

After a moment of recollection, King Zhongshun let out a heavy breath.

Seeing Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong congratulating with envy, "My lord, just by looking at your complexion, I can tell that you are full of energy and in good health."

King Zhongshun laughed loudly, "This king feels that he can kill a cow now, and he has enough kidney energy, so it will be no problem to have a few more heirs next year."

Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong cursed secretly.

Saying this in front of his two eunuchs is not a slap in the face.

King Zhongshun didn't care about these things. Although he was really polite to Dai Quan and Xia Shouzhong on weekdays, he really didn't like them both from the bottom of his heart.

Smiling, he cupped his hands to Shi Zhongkui, "Boqian, since you don't want this king's gift of thanks, it's okay for me to use the hundred-acre farm in Tongzhou to buy a few cups of the precious medicine from you, right?"

Shi Zhongkui couldn't help laughing when he saw him talking about wine as medicine.

From this point alone, it can be seen that King Zhongshun is definitely a thoughtful person.

In case the outside world hears about changing the dressing at the farm, it will be easier to accept than changing the wine.

After all, things like medicine are meant to save lives, and the world's subconscious will only think that when it's time to save lives, they have to buy it no matter how expensive it is.

Moreover, the farm was originally intended to be given to Shi Zhongkui, but now that he can ask for some spirit wine, in King Zhongshun's opinion, he definitely made a lot of money.

Keep some of them for yourself, and give the rest to the emperor and the Supreme Emperor. The rewards you get are by no means comparable to a hundred hectares of fertile land.

Of course, Shi Zhongkui would not sell medicinal wine mixed with spirit peach wine for the sake of a farm.

Once this thing is sold, it is no longer priceless.

Only by highlighting its rarity and only using it to save lives, will the world pay more attention to it, and automatically elevate the status of this wine.

Nonsense, "Does the lord know what that drop of spiritual wine just now represents?"

King Zhongshun, Dai Quan, and Xia Shouzhong quickly realized that it was rumored that Shi Zhongkui had said in Jia's house that the purple-gold-red gourd in his hand could not only absorb ghosts, but also absorb their souls.

Does that mean that a drop of wine is equal to a soul?
While Zhongshun Wang and the three felt a little bit in conflict, they also felt that this was right.

But in this way, the spirit wine will definitely be hard to come by.

Dai Quan thought about it, "Liu Yuangong, since you know the people in the Yin Division, why don't you find a solution with them?"

Shi Zhongkui put on a show and glared at Xia Shouzhong, waiting for him to lower his head and dare not look at him.

Only then did he explain, "The souls of the ghosts that enter the Yin Division belong to the jurisdiction of the underworld.

I'm afraid I'm getting impatient to rob people with the underworld.

Moreover, ghosts and ghosts also have people who do not kill, but devote themselves to cultivation.

If such a ghost is killed, it will damage the merit of the official.And those evil spirits who do all kinds of evil are not so easy to encounter. "

After finishing speaking, Shi Zhongkui bowed his hands to King Zhongshun, "My lord, no matter how much you pay for this kind of life-saving thing, the lower officials will not sell it.

Nor can it be sold.

Otherwise, all the civil servants and generals in the dynasty would come to beg for the next official, and then the next official would have no choice but to resign and go all over the world to cast down demons and slay demons. "

King Zhongshun thought it was good when he heard it, but soon realized that if Shi Zhongkui really resigned from office, it would definitely be more difficult to find him in the future.

Besides, he is a cultivator, and he has good things in his hands, so why not keep them for his own practice.

Thinking about it again, Shi Zhongkui gave himself a drop of the spirit wine without hesitation just now, and when he really needs it in the future, he will naturally be able to get another drop easily.

Thinking about it this way, King Zhongshun immediately felt that this matter must be kept secret.

In the end, only I, Dai Quan, Xia Shouzhong, the emperor, the Supreme Emperor, and the Jia family knew about it.

He cupped his hands and said to Shi Zhongkui, "Don't worry, Bo Qian, this king will definitely keep this secret strictly.

As for the hundred hectares of fertile land, why not tell the outside world that I will sell it to you for 150,000 taels of silver.How about writing a receipt for money received, but not your money? "

This method is feasible, but it is feasible, but just as Shi Zhongkui wanted to agree, he suddenly thought that his rescue of King Zhongshun just now was a self-directed and self-acted act.

If this ten thousand mu of fertile land is really taken away, the underworld might record this amount.

When the time comes, what needs to be repaid is not money, but Yinde or something else.

Thinking of this, Shi Zhongkui couldn't help feeling that it would be better to buy the farm with real money.

It's not right, it's better to use eight-treasure wine instead of spending money.

"My lord, why don't you exchange [-] catties of Eight Treasures wine with you for that farm?"

King Zhongshun was overjoyed when he heard this.

Since the appearance of Babao Wine, it has been controlling the monthly quantity, and the buying and selling rights are all in the hands of Xue Pan, Dabawang and Jia Lian.

People with reputation in the capital can buy it if they want to buy it, but it is difficult for those outside the capital.

If I ordered someone to take the 1500 catties of wine to the south to sell it, there would be no problem selling it for 20 taels of silver.

After such a calculation, it is about the same as the actual value of the farm, and I won't suffer even the slightest loss.

All of a sudden, King Zhongshun's affection for Shi Zhongkui was overwhelming.

Of course, you still have to be polite.

Shi Zhongkui was not interested in talking any further, anyway, 1500 catties of Babao wine, that is, 150 catties of Chenghuang Medicinal Wine, plus 1350 catties of ordinary spirits that are not bad on the market.

Although it is indeed valuable, in my opinion, it must be that the farm is more in short supply.
