A Feng Shui Master's Guide to Cultivating Immortals
Chapter 17 What to Do When You Are Hungry Again
Showing appropriate joy and gratitude, Chen Ling came out with a heavy three hundred silver coins.The boss didn't keep him for dinner, he didn't have that qualification yet.Chen Xiao didn't care about being looked down upon, the surprise was already big enough.
He was also a little excited inside.After all, these three hundred silver coins are the biggest sum of money he has earned with his own efforts since he came to this world.
Although the bounty that Han Wa got was huge, it was in exchange for his life.Most of it was used to save lives, and a small part was exchanged for the current job.Chen Xiao didn't feel much about it, and didn't think it belonged to him.
Zhou Wushi sent Hanwa's private money, which was also regarded by Chen Xiao as Hanwa's inheritance.Bought Yu Jue, arranged a Fengshui pattern, and gave back to Youen and his uncle.
It has been a long time since Chen Xiao experienced such a surprise of suddenly getting a fortune.
After all, he was a Fengshui master in his previous life, and many powerful people lined up to invite him to see Fengshui.Regardless of whether it is a yin house or a yang house, they are paid a lot every time.He has long lost the joy of making money, thinking that money is nothing more than numbers lying on bank cards.
I went to the bank in a happy mood and exchanged the three hundred silver coins into three golden gold coins.The amount of three hundred silver coins is really not small, it is not easy to carry, and it is not safe.Just change it to gold coins, which is good for collection.
After running to the best restaurant in the county city to have a good meal, Chen Xiao did not return to Antique Street.He plans to use the rest of the time to look for a house, so that he can move here directly when he is on vacation.
Chen Xiao has always been willing to pay for others to serve her.This saves time and effort, and can avoid many detours.So, he directly found someone in the house, and it only took half a day to find a place that satisfied him.
This place is on the east side of Taxue Xunxian Pavilion, two blocks away from Antique Street.It takes only two quarters of an hour to walk to and from work every day.Chen Xiao took a fancy to it, one reason was that most of the residents lived in families with better economic conditions, and there was no need to deal with complicated neighborhood relationships.
It is also because this is an old block, close to several important streets of the county, and the security is relatively good.Once there is something, just shout, and the patrol will come very quickly.
Of course, the third and most important reason is that the east side of Antique Street is a place with a lot of food and a lot of delicious food.He can settle the meal by the way on the way to and from work.This is the most worthwhile point for bachelors who can't cook.
Signed a contract with the middleman, drew a deposit, and paid half a year's rent and three months' deposit.The officials who came to notarize and record were asked to check the famous discs and put them in the file.This small yard, which only has a row of main houses facing north and south and a low kitchen next to the main house, belongs to Chen Xiao for the time being.
It was only now that Chen Xiao knew that renting a house in the county city had to be reported to the county government.
The political system of Dai State is very interesting, it is the system of enfeoffment and city lordship.The family of the city lord is often a family inherited by the cultivators. After obtaining the ruling power of a city, the lord of the Dai Kingdom will issue a royal decree to the family, announcing that the city will be "divided" to the family.
This country does not have a system similar to the imperial examination, and the promotion of official career can only go to the city lord's mansion.And the status of a civil servant in the city lord's mansion is not even as high as that of a cultivator who is a vassal of the city lord's family.In this environment, officials have much less power.But they are more conscientious, and the management system is quite comprehensive.
There are old furniture left by previous residents in the house. Chen Xiao sees that it is too old and makes creaking noises.Just ask the people in the houses that haven't left to call someone to move them away.The people in the house were very happy to help him, because Chen Xiao said that these old furniture could be given to those who moved things.Who doesn't have many poor relatives? This is a great favor.
After a burst of dust and smoke, the house was evacuated.Looking at the dust floating in the air, Chen Ling took a deep breath and rolled up his sleeves neatly.I borrowed a basin and a rag from my neighbor, fetched water from the well on the street outside, and cleaned it inside and out.
Cleaned up and it was completely dark.Chen Xiao checked the time, locked the door, and finished dinner on the way back to the shop.
A few days later, it was Chen Xiao's turn to rest.Early in the morning, he went to an unremarkable shop at the end of the street to look at furniture.
People who often come and go to Antique Street know that there are several shops on this street that operate old houses.Although the furniture in this family is second-hand or even sold out several times, they are all serious and good things, no worse than those newly made furniture.On the contrary, because of its age, it has been covered with patina, which has a very historical flavor in it.Some collectors who like old objects can often find surprises here.
Chen Xiao didn't want to collect it for fun, and all he needed was a complete set of furniture with good quality and medium materials.He said hello in advance and asked the boss to help find it.Come here this time to see the situation.
After all, they are all on the same street, so the boss paid a lot of attention.Using his own channels, he got Chen Xiao the furniture he wanted.
This set of furniture is just enough for one main room and two secondary rooms.Good condition, good condition.Because it is an easy-to-obtain wood in this world, the price is not too expensive.The whole set cost only thirty silver coins, which was only Chen Xiao's 20 days' wages.
"Look at it, but you still like it." The boss puffed on a long cigarette holder. "Although the material of this set of furniture is only yellow wood, the workmanship is exquisite."
The yellow wood mentioned by the boss is actually spruce, a tree that generally grows in places with large temperature differences in the north.The wood resources in Dai State are particularly rich, which makes the price of yellow wood, which is used as the mainstream, very cheap.A piece of spruce that is as thick as one person's arms can only be sold for eight or nine hundred copper coins.Therefore, the boss said very truthfully, wood is worthless, and the workmanship is more expensive.
There are exquisite and detailed wood carvings on this set of furniture.Chen Xiao looked carefully, and it turned out to be woodcarved scene paintings of figures, animals, landscapes, etc.The picture is detailed and lifelike.This was also very rare in the previous life, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an art treasure.
The boss gave Chen Xiao all the treasures and explained them one by one.Tell him what is the name of the woodcarving on the wardrobe, which allusion is the story on the bed frame, and even the matching tables and chairs are carved with different kinds of animals.
Chen Xiao listened carefully. These allusions and animals were things he couldn't learn from the master shopkeeper.It also introduces the appearance of the world from the side.
Chen Xiao found that some of the animals the boss mentioned were the same as those in the previous life, such as cows, sheep, chickens, horses, etc.There are also some that are different, such as the flower-skinned leopard and tiger that killed Hanwa.
The first time Master Zhou came to visit him, Chen Xiao asked Han Wa how he was seriously injured under the pretext that he didn't remember the past.
That time, the caravan was unlucky and encountered a beast disaster.In this world, some beasts are extremely ferocious.But those ferocious beasts live in places that are inaccessible.Those that infeste and move in places where ordinary people live are all beasts that are one level weaker.
Fierce beasts and ferocious beasts have different habits and living habits, but there is only one thing they are similar to.That is, the estrus, estrus and cub-care periods are not easy to provoke.During this period, ferocious and ferocious beasts are often irritable and violent, and they run to human lands to kill.This unfortunate disaster is the plague of beasts.
By the way, it was the animal disaster that caused the Chen family to flee.A ferocious beast lost its cub, somehow ran to the place where the Chen family used to live, causing disaster for half the county.In the end, it was an immortal cultivator who drove the beast away.Because the beast was not dead, the Chen family and other people who escaped did not dare to go back, so they could only live in a different place.
What Hanwa encountered that time was a ferocious beast in estrus, or a beast that failed in courtship.One can imagine how bad its mood is, and how unlucky the caravan is.
Chen Xiao was very satisfied with the furniture and settled the payment on the spot.The boss asked the guys in the store to transport the furniture out through the back door and sent it to Chen Xiao's home.Chen Xiao directed the guys to arrange the furniture according to his requirements.
The bounty was paid and the man was dismissed.Chen Xiao went to the street again to hire a carriage and purchased other supplies, so he took care of it.
Chen Xiao kept a low profile when moving this time, without making a fuss or entertaining guests.After all, he believes that this is just a temporary foothold, not a real home, nor a housewarming.
After a busy day, lying on a brand new, soft bed, Chen Xiao planned to fall asleep comfortably, but was attacked by a sudden sense of hunger.
Chen Ling was startled suddenly, wondering if the previous situation had happened again.Just hesitating for such a short time, he was already too hungry to die.
Chen Ling had no choice but to get up, and took out the leftover half of the roast chicken from dinner from the cabinet.
Although there was no treat that day, he himself ate well, with wine, vegetables, meat and chicken.Logically speaking, he shouldn't be so hungry.After suppressing the hunger in his stomach, Chen Xiao climbed into bed with confusion and fell asleep.
The next day, the familiar days of three meals a day, takeaway afternoon tea and supper returned.After three days of this, after making sure that there was no mistake, Chen Xiao started to act according to the previous plan.
After arranging the feng shui pattern last time, it took fourteen or five days for him to eat a lot again.Chen Xiao intends to do an experiment to verify what kind of relationship exists between the Feng Shui pattern and this kind of food.
Taking advantage of the lunch break at noon this day, Chen Xiao hired a master from the civil engineering class.Let him take his disciples to his house to build a wall.
To be exact, Chen Xiao built a screen wall between the main gate and the main room.
He was also a little excited inside.After all, these three hundred silver coins are the biggest sum of money he has earned with his own efforts since he came to this world.
