Reborn Wood Tour

Chapter 30

A variety of dishes with complete colors, flavors and flavors were placed in front of Xiao Fang and the others, and they were so greedy that they were so greedy that they had never seen the dishes before.Xiao Fang is a cultivator, and he hasn't eaten since he reached the pinnacle of cultivation.Now at Mu’s house, I was amazed to see all kinds of dishes that have never been seen before and taste very delicious. Xiao Fang knows that the food tribute from Mu’s family is very precious to the outside world, but for cultivation To the family, this is just tasteless.Because they usually take the time to practice and don’t have the time to eat. Generally, they only need to drink a dose of nutritional supplements, and they don’t need to eat until they reach the red level. Eating these low-level foods will have impurities in their bodies. Yes, it takes a long time to get rid of impurities, so it's better not to eat for convenience.The Xiao family usually does not use the food that the Mu family pays tribute to, but distributes it to the families that are attached to the Xiao family as a means of winning people's hearts, so that they don't need to spend the treasures of the Xiao family. Precious food is loyal to the Xiao family and tramples on the ground.

When facing the big table of various foods in front of him, Xiao Fang felt that life should be enjoyed to the fullest. He used to live an ascetic life.All these dishes can only be seen in the history books, and now Xiao Fang feels as if he is in a dream, thinking that all these dishes are fake, he must be dreaming.But the external mental power told him that all this was real and not a dream, and the fact that the Mu family made their fortunes from agriculture meant nothing to them.Thinking of this, Xiao Fang's small thoughts started again. He felt that all the good things should be taken to Xiao's family, and then he had to 'talk' to the Mu family about paying tribute.

The heads of the Xi family and the Jiang family also saw that their eyes were about to drop, and their noses smelled the smell of food that they had never smelled before. This thing that they had only seen in books actually appeared in reality.In this era, food production can't keep up and can't feed everyone.In order to prevent people from starving to death, only a small amount of food can be made into a large amount of nutrients so that people will not starve to death. In this way, people have not eaten food and cannot cook for thousands of years, and the tricks are only steamed and boiled.And people who can eat food are not ordinary people. Vegetables are more expensive than meat. You can buy a catty of Gu Gu meat for [-] star coins, but you can only buy a small carrot. The price of a big carrot is different. A catty of meat and A small carrot costs [-] star coins, but [-] star coins can be bought as a nutritional supplement, which can last an adult three meals a day for a month. What is the concept in comparison?

A small aristocratic family like the Jiang family of the Xi family will only buy some side dishes when they are so hungry after a month, lest they grow up so big and don't know what the food tastes like.Now in front of them is a large table of delicious dishes for free, mostly vegetarian dishes, and a large plate full of them. Although I have never eaten it, I don’t know if it is good. I think it must be good after smelling the aroma. There are more than a dozen dishes on the table that cost a lot of star coins. Although it hurts, it doesn’t prevent them from taking advantage. It’s a fool to eat or not, and it’s not their own money. .

Murong Ziqing did not lose his composure, except for the slight shock on his face when he saw it for the first time, there was no expression after that.His performance was much duller than those of Xiao Fang and Xijia Jiang's family. Mu Yang nodded when he saw it. Unlike some people... Mu Yang's eyes moved to Xiao Fang's side and then immediately moved back. This is too embarrassing, and the saliva is about to flow out, okay?He will definitely not eat here later, he can't eat it when he sees these people's saliva!

The door opened after three knocks, and everyone looked towards the door.Xiao Fang saw the few people who came in flicking the non-existent dust on the clothes, and said with a smile: "Master Mu is so arrogant that he asked the guests to wait here. Could this be from the Mu family? Is the atmosphere not working?"

Isn't it a joke to make me wait so long to see a table of delicious dishes but not eat them?You don't want to live anymore, do you?Let's see if he waits to suppress the arrogance of his Mu family and destroy the prestige of his Mu family.

"Where is that? We definitely didn't mean that. Manager Xiao, you have to trust the Mu family. This is really a misunderstanding." Waving his hand and letting the children find their own seats, Mu Song quickly walked to Xiao Fang's side and sat down. Fill Xiao Fang's cup with water, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Manager Xiao, this is not my grandson's 10-year-old birthday, Mu is so happy, so happy, I went to pick and order food and cook for myself. This No, the time passed by accidentally, and it was Mu's fault for not coming to greet the manager in time, and he should be punished. I heard that Manager Xiao is a kind person, with a big heart and no grudges. Manager Xiao has specially prepared something for his arrival, I hope you like it."

Mu You stared and saw his grandfather open his eyes and talking nonsense, just now a few people met other stewards outside together, Mu Song originally wanted to ask them to come together, lest Xiao Fang only disgust himself, no matter what he said, he would pull him It's not a pity.

And Mu Li turned around and left without saying a word, and the other stewards followed suit, only Mu Da and Mu Hua stayed.

"You should go to such a disgusting thing by yourself. I heard that Xiaoyuzi from the Lin family cooks well, so I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it." Mu Da said it directly, and patted Mu Song's shoulder sympathetically, turning around and leaving only a few With a gorgeous back, just, just left.

Mu Song was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he heard Mu Jiapeng sniggering, and glared at the blank guy before he heard Mu Hua speak.

"Little pine nuts, you have to take pity on us old bones. Can we still eat the things from Xiao's family after seeing them? You are still young and have the determination to treat them for us. We Let these old things go first~" Feng and Sao caressed his gray half-length hair, and Mu Hua also left.

No way, no matter how angry Mu Song is, he can only take his family to meet Xiao Fang and the others. Sure enough, as soon as he entered the door, he heard that Xiao Fang was disgusting. The steward really had the foresight to push this matter, this Xiao Fang is really disgusting.

"Oh? What is it?" Xiao Fang was also curious. He didn't expect that there would be something to gain when he came to the Mu family. The original plan was to see if there was a purpose behind the Mu family. The good things that the Mu family sent to their door should not be in vain.

"Haha, I know that you are generous, Guanshi Xiao. Presumably, Guanshi Xiao has heard of gathering Qi Lingshui, right?" Mu Song pretended to be mysterious and leaned into Xiao Fang's ear and said, and sure enough, there was a flash of greed in Xiao Fang's face. , I ticked off with a smile in my heart.

Murong Ziqing didn't open his mouth, since that person came in, he kept peeking at the person he was thinking of, and didn't pay attention to other things, but he is a cultivator, his hearing is very sensitive, when he heard what Mu Song said about gathering Qi Lingshui, his eyes were also the same. He moved, but quickly calmed down.Mu Jiapeng, who has been observing Murong Zi's feelings, followed his gaze and smiled heartily. This nephew of his own has met a good peach blossom, but this nephew's carefree personality and feelings are really good. It's not easy to take it down, this kid from the Murong family has a way to go.

Hearing the four words Mu Song said, Xiao Fang felt excited, and couldn't control the greed in his heart, and immediately asked: "Oh? Patriarch Mu still has such a good thing, can you show it?"

How could Xiao Fang not know about Qi Gathering Spirit Water? All cultivators understand the benefits of this thing.The place where this energy-gathering spirit water naturally appears is very uncertain, it can appear anywhere.No one knows why this thing was born, but after knowing the usefulness of Qi Gathering Spiritual Water, no one cares about how it appeared.Because after taking Qiju Lingshui, the speed of absorbing spiritual power will be doubled faster than usual, and the impurities in the body will be slowly discharged in the future, and it also has a function that people who have taken Juqilingshui will improve their realm The difficulty of the game will be greatly reduced, so how could Xiao Fang let go of such a good thing.Although Xiao Fang is a member of the Xiao family, Xiao Fang really has very few things that are good for cultivation, and Xiao Fang's aptitude is not very good, so he needs Qi Gathering Spiritual Water even more. Such a good thing.

Mu Song's face became serious, and he whispered to Xiao Fang: "Mr. Xiao, let me tell you the truth. This energy-gathering spirit water was brought back by Mu Xiu, a genius of our Mu family decades ago. There is another cultivation genius in the family, but unfortunately the Mu family's fortune is not strong, so in order to develop well in the future, they can only reluctantly let the baby out. This is also just a good thing, you are here, Manager Xiao, and Mu thought, "Isn't Manager Xiao just a big man?" Do you have a backer? You can give it to Guanshi Xiao. And as Guanshi Xiao is, Mu believes that Guanshi Xiao will take good care of the Mu family, right, Guanshi Xiao?"

"Yes, that's right. I, Xiao Fang, am a man of my word. As long as you give me that thing... no, it's for the Xiao family. I will naturally speak a few words for the Mu family in front of the head of the family. Now Let's see what the Mu family thinks of the city." Xiao Fang corrected the expression on the front, trying hard to hide the greed in his heart.But he didn't know that his appearance was ridiculous. He was obviously selfish but said that everything was for the good of the Mu family. Don't be too funny.

Mu You and others all lowered their heads and didn't look at this side, because they were afraid that they would ruin Mu Song's plan by accidentally showing other expressions.

"Xiao Qing, go to the small white jade bottle in the first drawer on the desk in my study and get it, and I don't want to see that there is only such a small bottle there again." Waving Mu Qing to go to work, seeing Mu Qing leave, Mu Song said to Mu Qing Xiao Fang said again: "There is only a small bottle of this thing. It is what Mu Xiu brought back then, and it is what it is now. Please rest assured that we have never used this thing, and no one in the Mu family can use it."

This point just happened to Xiao Fang's heart, he nodded to Mu Song in satisfaction and said: "Hey, your Mu family's loyalty to the Xiao family is waiting for me to go back and give you a good word in front of the Patriarch. Yes. Now, there is no need to increase the amount of tribute grain the Mu family will use in the future, and you can pay whatever amount you had before.” Since you have benefited from the Mu family, you have to return something, and the amount of tribute grain from the Mu family is also the same. He asked to increase it privately, and now the reduction will not cause any loss to the Xiao family, and others will not know that he has benefited from doing business privately, right?Xiao Fang said that he was very satisfied with this visit to Mu's house, and he didn't care about the previous unhappiness. Nothing is as important as Qi Gathering Spirit Water. When going back to Mu's family, he should have a good word with the owner, at least In his opinion, the Mu family has no private purpose.

In fact, the reason why the Xiao family asked the Mu family to increase the amount of tribute grain was not decided by the head of the Xiao family, but by Xiao Fang himself.Xiao Fang's ambition is great. He is afraid of Xiao Qing and he is very dissatisfied with Xiao Qing. He wants to have his own power but doesn't know where to start, so he makes more or less demands on the family attached to Xiao's family below. Increase the amount of tribute, and the Mu family's food is of no use to Xiao Fang, if it is reduced, it will be reduced, and the good things that will be obtained immediately are not comparable to some food.

The reason why the Mu family paid tribute to the Xiao family was only an agreement between the two ancestors more than 2000 years ago. At that time, in order to seek protection, the Mu family not only signed a contract with the Xiao family, but also two other families.In the contracts of several families, it is stated that in the future, if the Mu family is strong enough to no longer need protection, they can stop paying tribute on their own, and the party that provides protection, that is, the Xiao family can also unilaterally stop paying tribute to the Mu family. contract.

The first ancestor of the Mu family and Xiao Pei, the last head of the Xiao family who died more than 2000 years ago, are good friends. The contracts signed by Xiao Pei and the Mu family are very fair and not There is no excessive demand on the Mu family, but after Xiao Pei died more than 300 years ago, Xiao Qing became the head of the family, and he looked down on the Mu family and targeted the Mu family everywhere.After that, many things happened, and the relationship between the two families was finally broken.The reason why Xiao Fang made such unscrupulous demands on the Mu family is partly because of Xiao Qing's influence, and the other part is that the Mu family is not a cultivating family, and those who are weaker than others will be exploited. The Mu family is the weak Xiao family. It is conceivable that the situation is strong.

This is also one of the reasons why the Mu family is so obsessed with becoming stronger and practicing.
