Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey
Chapter 219 Wei Shao
The floor-to-ceiling windows are three feet high, and the eaves of the building cut off the skylight like swords. Pillars of light shine through the wooden grilles of the windows, and floating dust is flying.
The entire first floor is almost a square, with flat square tiles paving the ground and extending hundreds of steps in all directions.
Since there are no beams or columns, the entire hall is divided into visual spaces by several huge pieces of cloth more than ten feet long and wide.
The thick velvet cloth is dyed with the Tianship Chamber of Commerce's iconic sky ship wave pattern, which is stirred by the penetrating river wind and oscillates like ocean waves.
Majestic and magnificent.
Such a building, all built on a tree?
Just where the tree comes from.
Ran Zhongshi seems to be talking about life?
Liang Qu recalled the key words, scanned the circle, then looked sideways at Ran Zhongshi, pointing to the giant tree: "Life? From childhood to adulthood?"
How did the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce plant such a huge tree in Pingyang County within a few months?
"It's birth. I've seen it elsewhere before."
Ran Zhongshi put away his folding fan and drew a column in front of his chest with his palm.
"One person can hug a thick sapling and water it with some Tianyuan Milk, and it will grow into the size you see now in two months.
Moreover, the shape of the Jasper Hongqiao tree is very strange. It grows like a floor slab, one layer after another, with obvious layers. It will have three layers within two hundred years, and it will never grow very long.
Therefore, except for the mother tree in the Imperial Capital, the Tianbo Towers that can be seen elsewhere are all three-story buildings. When the trees are about the same size, craftsmen will stick buildings and wood on them. "
"Two months long? Doesn't that mean the craftsmen built it in just over a month?"
"It's not as troublesome as you think. Tianbo Chamber of Commerce is very familiar with this set. Most of the buildings are standard. Just transport them to the place and assemble them. It will take more than three months."
Liang Qu's eyes widened and he couldn't stop looking left and right.
Ran Zhongshi laughed.
"When I was eight years old, I entered Tianbo Tower in the imperial capital for the first time. One floor was five feet high, which was two feet higher than the three feet here. My expression was exactly the same as yours, Brother Liang.
In fact, don’t think it is very powerful. The Jasper Hongqiao Tree is just beautiful and can deceive people, but it is not easy to use and is extremely troublesome.
Trees can encourage growth, but they cannot stop growing. It would be a loss if they were killed. A living Jasper Hongqiao can grow one foot of Jasper tree heart every year, which is a real good thing.
Therefore, it needs to be repaired every once in a while, and the branches and protruding roots must be cut off. Just maintenance costs a lot of money, purely for the sake of face. "
Ran Zhongshi chatted while walking.
Xiang Fangsu next to him took a fancy to a piece of jade and was haggling over the price.
There are still two quarters of an hour, half an hour, before the auction starts, so there is no rush to enter.
Liang Qu went over to take a look. It was indeed beautiful. The base was mutton-fat white, and there was a streak of blood red floating on the surface of the tripod, as if blood had been dripped into milk.
"Master, do you like this jade? The best blood jade is worth a hundred gold, definitely not expensive."
Liang Qu was startled and subconsciously touched the banknote in his arms.
Today he brought out all his belongings. Counting previous accumulation and recent income, the total amount was only nine hundred and fifty taels.
Exchanging silver for gold is the same as exchanging copper coins for silver. There is a certain premium.
One hundred gold, that's more than a thousand taels in real terms.
Furthermore, he had never felt anything unique about the jade. It was clearly an ordinary ornament.
Xiang Fangsu shook his head: "The material is fine, but the carver is not. Don't think I'm a frog in a well from the countryside. I've seen better dragon blood jade than this, seventy gold."
With one mouthful, more than three hundred taels of silver were cut off, which made Liang Qu feel tight in his chest.
Ran Zhongshi explained on the side: "In Tianbo Chamber of Commerce, the first floor mostly relies on rent and commission to make money, and anyone can come here to sell things.
The condition is that it must be reviewed by the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce, so you don’t have to worry about buying fakes. Even if there is a premium, it won’t be too much.
Please visit the latest address
Waiting until the second floor, you will find the good products that Tianbo Chamber of Commerce makes its own business.
Ordinary paintings, porcelain, jade; high-end precious plants, precious medicines, and treasures. If you want to find someone to make medicine or refine weapons, you can ask the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce to contact the master on your behalf.
On the third floor further up, the auction is held. When there is no auction, it will be rented out to others.
Having a Tianbo Chamber of Commerce in one place is quite good in all aspects, and it is indeed much more convenient to do things. "
Liang Qu nodded.
When he walked in, he felt that without a certain population base, he would never make money by driving this thing, it would be a total loss.
No wonder it only exists in the center of a state or a government. Warriors all like to go to big places, which is almost the same as the direction in which talents from later generations flow.
After a while, Xiang Fangsu came back carrying a small tripod.
Ran Zhongshi smiled and asked: "How much did it cost?"
"Eighty-four gold, the material is really good. I'll find a good craftsman to make it again and send it back to my mother. She likes blood ruby."
Ke Wenbin clapped his hands: "It reminds me, just in time, I will buy two pieces, one for each person."
Ran Zhongshi raised his eyebrows: "One for each person? Are you giving it to your father?"
"Zhongshi had a different idea. This guy must be giving it to his fiancée."
Ran Zhongshi raised his voice several times: "Fiancée? When did Wen Bin have a fiancée?"
Ke Wenbin smiled and said nothing, and walked away happily, leaving only his back.
Ran Zhongshi looked at Xiang Fangsu, who curled his lips.
"Just the day before yesterday, his family sent a letter saying that they proposed marriage to him. Zhong Shiqian also knows her. She is the granddaughter of Su Xueshi. Her nickname is Su Xiaoran. When she was a child, she often played with us behind us."
"Oh, I have the impression, mother, this bitch is so well hidden! Little June will let him pay for it!"
"That's right, that's right!"
After following Ran Zhongshi for a while, Liang Qu accidentally saw Xiang Changsong and others who were also wandering around in the crowd.
"Brother Ran, Brother Xiang, I saw some of my senior brothers."
The two nodded.
"Senior Yang is the boss of Hebo, and he is also the eldest brother and uncle of Yue Long. He is one of our own. It's time to go say hello. See you on the third floor."
"Well, see you on the third floor."
After bidding farewell to the two of them, Liang Qu headed in the direction where he saw several senior brothers before.
Unexpectedly, halfway through, a person suddenly walked out from the side and stopped him.
The person who came here was tall and strong, and he was a standard martial arts practitioner with a good family background, otherwise he would not have been able to maintain such a physique.
Liang Qu raised his eyebrows: "Brother, what do you mean?"
The visitor raised his hand and bowed, and said with a smile: "Wei Shao, I have always wanted to meet Brother Liang before, but unfortunately it was no coincidence, and I never expected to meet here."
Wei surname?
Liang Qu immediately understood the other party's identity.
Everyone knows that Wei Lin likes to adopt adopted sons, but he is not afraid of it in public and bows in response.
"I wonder what Sir Wei wants to see me for? My senior fellow apprentices are nearby and are about to look for them."
"Brother Liang acted in a hurry, so I'll tell you straight.
Since ancient times, the second-in-command has been far less powerful than the first-in-command.
The deputy withdrawals are not even qualified to receive great merits, but the main withdrawals have a certain quota of great merits every month.
So, come and work with us. As long as you are willing to come, I will give you a Huanglong Pill. What do you think, Brother Liang? "
