Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey
Chapter 41: Number One in Yixing City
You old bastard, dare to come and tie him up twice.
The sense of crisis that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time finally dissipated, and Liang Qu was in a cheerful mood.
The pockets are bulging, the broken silver collides, and the heart feels better. Facing such a prosperous Pingyang Town, I can't help but want to buy something.
He happened to pass by a cloth shop, so Liang Qu asked his two senior brothers to wait for a while before going in to buy two sets of ready-made cotton clothes.
Nowadays, cotton alone on the market costs 300 yuan per pound, and a long coat for a tall person costs three pounds of cotton. Two sets of outerwear and an undershirt cost Liang Qu a little over thirty liang.
The clothes given by his senior brothers were so good that he couldn't bear to wear them. He sweated a lot during martial arts training, so he chose two cheap sets that were easy to replace.
Liang Qu took out his money bag to pay the bill. After taking back the change, he took out a small gold coin from the bag.
"Shopkeeper, can you help me exchange this small ingot for two taels of broken silver?"
The shopkeeper picked up the silver ingot and weighed it. He blew it to listen to the sound and took a bite. After making sure it was fine, he took out two pieces of broken silver and weighed it to Liang Qu in person.
"Sir, your silver is of good quality. I'll give you an extra fifty copper coins." The shopkeeper took out another fifty copper coins from the drawer and handed it to Liang Qu.
"Thank you."
Liang Qu accepted the broken silver and copper coins, then took out a small ingot and returned it to Senior Brother Xiang along with a tael of broken silver.
Xiang Changsong accepted it in surprise: "Junior brother, it's just three liang. If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten it."
Liang Qu shook his head: "Borrowing money is borrowing money. If you borrow money, you have to pay it back."
The robe given to Changsong was of great value at first glance, but a gift was a gift, and borrowing money was borrowing money. No matter how many gifts you give, you can't say that you don't have to pay back the borrowed money.
"Harmful."
Xiang Changsong had no choice but to accept the money. He really didn't care about three taels of silver, but Liang Qu's behavior made him feel inexplicably happy.
After buying clothes, a little way ahead is Wufangzhai, the best pastry shop in Pingyang Town.
Liang Qu bought a apprenticeship gift here. He took out one or two money and bought two boxes of pastries, one box for Li and Chen, and one box for Uncle Chen's family.
Hu Qi said with a smile: "Junior brother Liang is indeed very happy, but I don't know if there are any of us in these two boxes."
Liang Qu scratched his head in embarrassment. He actually forgot to bring it to his senior brothers. Although he was not as rich as his senior brothers, he still wanted to spend money to buy a few more boxes, but Hu Qi stopped him.
"Hey, just kidding. Master gave you a total of ten taels of silver. You have spent almost seven taels of silver now. If you buy it for us again, wouldn't Master give that money in vain? Junior brother, if you are really serious and make money later, please Let’s just have a meal.”
Liang Qu nodded in agreement and kept this matter in his heart.
As a direct disciple of Master Yang, no one would doubt that he was catching two hundred yuan of fish a day. The fishermen would only feel that he was worthy of being a direct disciple of Master Yang, as he fished with such a graceful style.
Even more exaggerated, it is not impossible to show that one treasure fish a month is not impossible, so that the monthly income can reach a small ten taels of silver, easily a hundred taels a year, which is worth ten farmers.
Of course, this method is the simplest and crudest. Liang Qu now has more than just fishing as a way to make money. For example, Xiang Changsong and Hu Qi are in the martial arts gym. One is dealing with people and the other is responsible for teaching. It is not for nothing. Master Yang Salaries are paid, and the benefits are quite generous, with dozens of taels of silver every month.
If Liang Qu has no money, he can come and work for a while. Even if he is not advanced enough to teach others, he can still do chores with Xiang Changsong. After he has read the book, he can help register information.
During the conversation, the three of them arrived at the martial arts studio.
On the martial arts field, the blood stains left last night have been covered with a layer of loess. I don't know what method was used, and the smell of blood can no longer be smelled.
Today there are still more than fifty "acquaintances".
Oh, no, Liang Qu glanced around and found that after deducting seven people from Lu Tingcai, there were only about forty left.
There are many apprentices in the martial arts gym, and Master Yang will be here for the next five days at the end of the month.
Today is only the second day.
The so-called guidance is not only on the modification of movements, but also on the key points of fighting, the guidance of Qi and blood, the selection of practice progress, the combination of medicinal materials and various other precautions. For this reason, everyone cherishes it and will not miss it easily. .
But there was no Lu Shaohui in the crowd. Speaking of which, Liang Qu hadn't seen him since yesterday, and he hadn't appeared until today.
Afraid to come back?
Liang Qu thought it was impossible. A serious martial artist like Lu Shaohui came to the martial arts hall not to learn anything, but to seek the atmosphere and environment. Instead of practicing in seclusion at home, it would be better to discuss everything with everyone.
Furthermore, Lu Shaohui was a "substitute" in name, and no one could accuse him of neglecting his duties. At most, he would be reprimanded.
The winter wind blows the fallen leaves, swirling them on the loess.
Liang Qu was looking at everyone, and everyone was looking at him.
Wearing a black animal skin cloak, a gold-trimmed robe with narrow sleeves and a narrow waist, a wide leather belt around the waist, waist tags and jade pendants hung on both sides, and metal arm guards are faintly exposed from the swing of the cuffs.
He is not too tall due to his age, and his skin is slightly darker, but his figure is tall and straight, and he has a certain demeanor and heroic spirit.
Is this the lucky boy from last night? !
Everyone couldn't help but think of Liang Qu, who was wearing tawny linen clothes last night. The clothes were not close-fitting, and he was full of poverty from beginning to end.
Two completely different people!
They couldn't believe it, but when they saw Hu Qi and Xiang Changsong chatting and laughing next to Liang Qu, they had to believe it.
Xiang Changsong has always been kind to others and the most patient. When there are conflicts between apprentices, they usually come to him to seek justice.
Although Martial Master Hu Qi doesn't talk much, he treats everyone equally and does his duty conscientiously. He won't be biased because of your different background. He himself is even more advanced.
But they have never shown such a cordial and harmonious atmosphere when communicating with apprentices like they do now!
There seemed to be a sadly thick barrier between them and Yang's direct disciples.
Some people are polite and kind to others, not because they like you, but because their education is high enough.
Zhao Xueyuan moved among the crowd. He walked forward and saluted and said hello.
"Hello, Senior Brother Hu, Hello Senior Brother Xiang, Hello Senior Brother Liang."
The status of a direct disciple is higher than that of an apprentice. No matter how early the apprentice enters the hall, he must be called Senior Brother Liang Qu.
Seeing that the best-off apprentices were acting like this, the rest could only come up to say hello one after another.
There was no exception for this group of people last night. They all stood aside and watched the show with amusement, but now they all bowed and saluted themselves.
When Liang Qu nodded slightly, he suddenly realized something.
It turns out that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, is this what it feels like?
"Ah Shui is so majestic!"
"This is what a man should do!"
Li Libo and Chen Jiechang in the corner of the flower bed were so excited when they saw Liang Qu's majestic demeanor.
The two suppressed their joy and stepped forward to say hello after everyone paid their respects.
But after asking, looking at Liang Qu's fancy clothes and waistband, the two of them who had a lot to say suddenly got stuck, their throats seemed to be blocked by something.
Xiang Changsong rolled his eyes from side to side and said, "You guys can talk first. Senior Brother Hu and I will go check on the apprentices. Come back later. Senior Brother Hu will teach you how to break through the barrier."
After the two left, Liang Qu took out a wooden box and shook it: "Want to eat?"
Li Libo saw the words on the bag. He was illiterate, but he recognized the words Wufangzhai.
The best pastry shop in Pingyang Town. Every time I passed by, I could always hear someone talking nearby. Over time, Li Libo recognized these three words.
But he had never gone shopping once. The threshold there was so high that even a gorgeously dressed old lady could cross it, but for him, it was like a high wall that was insurmountable. He hesitated and said: " Wufangzhai?”
"Well, I brought it to you just to celebrate my becoming Master Yang's disciple."
"Isn't it cheap?" Chen Jiechang obviously knew the weight of the box and was too embarrassed to reach out.
"Take it."
"this......"
"Take it!"
The exact same conversation as last night happened again, and a sense of trance came over the two of them, as if they saw the figure standing still under the moonlight, covered in blood.
That figure with gnashing teeth and a ferocious face, knocking down everyone who tried to get up again!
When they came back to their senses, their hands had unconsciously opened the packaging.
Liang Qu laughed: "Hahaha, why are you so embarrassed? Look at you guys, Li Libo, I didn't see you embarrassed the last time you pulled pork."
The vague barriers melted like ice and snow in the laughter, and Li Libo and Chen Jiechang also laughed.
Li Libo's eyes were red, and he stuffed a whole piece of shortbread into his mouth: "Well, it smells so good. I also wanted to taste the pastries in Wufangzhai before, but I never had the chance. Well, it smells so good."
Chen Jiechang took out a piece and tasted it slowly, and said slowly, "From now on in Yixing City, you will be the first famous big shot in Yixing City, Liang Qu."
"Ah Shui will be Brother Shui from now on. Master Liang, maybe he can buy a big house and raise a maid in the future?"
"Looking at your potential, you must be an official and take the martial arts exam!"
"You just deliberately don't deal with me, right?"
"Let me tell you, Ashui earned this with his own merit, and he deserves it!"
