Don’t Show the Son

Lin Xiu doesn't like letting people take advantage of her, but she also divides people.

If Qin Wan pays a few pennies for face money, he will feel that he has lost money, because the two of them have nothing to do with each other.

But for the imperial concubine, as long as he has what he can give her, he will not be stingy.

In Lin Xiu's heart, she was actually like a sister.

Although this body is only eighteen years old, Lin Xiu's soul has already passed through twenty-six years. The imperial concubine is thirty-two years old this year, only six years older than him.

From the time Lin Xiu started to remember things, he has never experienced what family affection is. In those years, seeing other people of the same age being loved by their parents and favored by their brothers and sisters, he could only secretly envy them.

Compared with the previous life, this life is much happier.

There are parents who care at home, noble concubines in the palace who love them, and girls who like them in the academy. If he can still marry a girl he really likes, it will be even more perfect. It doesn’t matter if he can’t marry. .

After leaving the palace and having a casual meal outside, Lin Xiu came to the Martial Arts Institute.

He should be credited with annihilating that group of insane gangsters. Although he failed to kill all of them, he killed at least two of them. The reward for that mission cannot be hacked.

After finding Vice President Chen, he gave Lin Xiu a consoling look, and said, "Don't worry, you have contributed a lot to recovering those goods and annihilating those gangsters. I'm going to ask Teacher Bai to ask you, you What kind of weapon do you want, the academy will build it for you as soon as possible."

Lin Xiu thought for a while and said, "I want two spears."

Vice President Chen said unexpectedly: "Two?"

Lin Xiu asked: "I want to use two guns occasionally, can't I?"

Vice President Chen nodded and said, "If it's just two, it's okay..."

In principle, he can only designate one weapon, but Lin Xiu's luck played a big role in the successful completion of this mission, and he also had an accident during the mission and almost died, so he can give it to him as appropriate. He set a precedent.

The melting point of meteoric iron is very high, and ordinary blacksmiths cannot make it. Even if it is a martial arts academy, it needs to hire a ground-level magician with the ability to control fire to make it.

In the next few days, besides practicing, Lin Xiu mainly did two things.

The first thing is to follow up on the construction of the two meteor spears. After all, they are his own weapons. He has participated in every process from the initial design of the prototype gun to the completion of the gun.

The second thing is to find Li Baizhang and tell him how to make the perfume.

With high-purity alcohol, the manufacture of perfume is not difficult. The Prince Qin's Mansion is not short of manpower, so Lin Xiu doesn't have to worry about the business affairs if he is entrusted to Li Baizhang.

As for the future profits of the perfume shop, Li Baizhang 30%, Lin Xiu 30%, the imperial concubine 30%, and Xue Ning'er 10%.

After Lin Xiu thought about it, she decided to bring Xue Ning'er into the gang.

For one thing, he owed Xue Ning'er too much emotionally, so he tried to make up for it if he could.

Secondly, didn't she say she wanted to buy a house? If she didn't become a rich woman first, where would she get the money to buy a house?

And if it wasn't for her flying ability last time, Lin Xiu might not be alive now, so he decided that he must treat her better in the future.

The name of the shop is "Ningxiangzhai", named after Xue Ning'er, who is also the name proprietress of the shop.

The shop is still in preparation, and Lin Xiu and Li Baizhang have already set the price of the perfume.

Like the small bottle of perfume he gave to the imperial concubine, a bottle of one hundred taels of silver, no bargaining, whether you like it or not.

After careful consideration, Lin Xiu still decided to let go of the common people in the capital and continue to plunder the rich and powerful, since it was easy for them to get money.

It is not easy for ordinary people to make money. Perfume is not a necessity in life. It is just to earn money from the rich and powerful. People like Chen Yuanyuan have too much money to spend, so there must be a place to go. The shops of Lin Xiu and Li Baizhang, Pay taxes to the court on time every month, and be a conscientious businessman who pays taxes properly.

Five days later, Lin Xiu walked out of the Martial Arts Academy.

He held a long gun in each hand.

The bodies of the two guns are both silver in color. After the meteorite is forged, it will be this color. The two guns are not the same length, one is more than eight feet long, and the other is shorter, but it also looks like seven feet.

There are complicated patterns on the body of the two guns. The purpose of these patterns is to increase the friction with the palm of the hand, so that the owner of the spear can hold the gun more stably when fighting.

If you look carefully, you will find that the patterns on the body of the eight-foot long spear are more like dragon scales, and the curve of the spear head is also like a dragon's head.

And that seven-foot long spear, the pattern on the body of the gun looks like a phoenix feather, and the tip of the gun looks like a phoenix head screaming up to the sky from a distance. Obviously, it is a woman's weapon.

Lin Xiu asked the Martial Arts Academy to build two long spears, one for himself and the other for Lingyin.

Weapons made of meteoric iron are not only sharper and more durable, but also easy to infuse true energy, making them ideal weapons for warriors.

After coming to the Different Arts Academy, Lin Xiu directly entered the Tianzi Academy.

Although he is not a student of Tianziyuan, he has come here quite a few times, and now he can come and go here freely, and no one cares about him.

Lingyin was practicing marksmanship in the yard. She seemed to be stimulated by Lin Xiu. These days, she spent significantly more time on martial arts.

Lin Xiu threw the seven-foot spear from afar and said, "Try this gun."

Zhao Lingyin took the gun out of thin air, and took a few steps back before stopping.

She was surprised, she didn't expect that the gun was so heavy that she needed her true energy to pick it up.

Feeling the weight of the spear in her hand, she seemed to remember something, looked at Lin Xiu, and asked, "Is this made of meteorite?"

Possessing a weapon made of meteorite is probably the dream of every warrior.

It's just that meteorites are too rare, and only when a large number of meteorites fall on the ground can there be a small amount of meteorites.

Almost all the extraterrestrial meteorites in Daxia are managed by the Martial Arts Institute, and it is difficult for outsiders to obtain them.

Not even her.

Lin Xiu nodded and said, "The Martial Arts Academy rewarded me with a piece of meteorite, and I asked them to build two long spears. Let's try."

Zhao Lingyin tried to use this spear to perform several types of marksmanship, and found that the power of each spear was several times higher than before. This long spear can give full play to her strength.

Lin Xiu looked at her from a distance and asked, "How is it?"

Zhao Lingyin put away the spear and said: "Weapons made of meteoric iron are of course much better than ordinary weapons."

Lin Xiudao: "I see you off."

This time, Zhao Lingyin did not refuse.

She knew that the spear in her hand was very valuable, enough to exchange for a large courtyard in the capital. If it was given to her by someone else, she would refuse without hesitation.

But that was Lin Xiu, there was no politeness between the two of them.

The favor owed to him, at most, find a chance in the future to return it.

Also, she really likes the gun.

The length of this gun is neither one inch long nor one inch short, which is just right for her to use. The color of the gun body is also the silver color she likes. She even likes the patterns on it. This gun seems to be measured for her. As custom made.

In fact, the gun given to Lingyin was tailor-made for her by Lin Xiu.

With a handy weapon, her strength can be improved a lot.

The School of Different Arts is the same as the School of Martial Arts. Students of the Tianzi School of the two schools, while enjoying the rich resources of the school, usually have to perform some special tasks. Such tasks are dangerous. The stronger the better.

Another very important point is that a certain psychologically distorted and insane guy, although he has not taken any action these days, he has not given up on the assassination of Lingyin and Lin Xiu. Yin didn't know about it yet.

Through monitoring the prince for a long time, Lin Xiu knew that the prince was still a little afraid of Lingyin.

After all, she is a genius who became famous at a young age. Once she is assassinated, the impact will be great, and the court will not let it go, and may even let him show her feet.

And because of Zhao Lingjun's relationship, some assassin organizations didn't even dare to accept the order to assassinate Lingyin.

No one wants to provoke an existence that may destroy their organization in the future because of a little money. Unless they are crazy, otherwise they will not touch Zhao Family Tianjiao's family.

Compared with Lin Xiu, Lingyin is still safe.

But even so, Lin Xiu is still trying to increase her strength.

When Lin Xiu and Lingyin walked on the streets of Wangdu again, Lin Xiu had a feeling that things were different.

Half a year ago, Lingyin was also like this. No matter where Lin Xiu went, she would follow him to protect him.

At that time, Lin Xiu was still a rookie who had just awakened his ability, and anyone could bully him. Half a year later, he already had some strength to protect himself.

Because the end of the year was approaching, the streets of the capital also became lively a few days ago.

Traffickers and pawns, people coming and going, when Lin Xiu walked through a familiar street, suddenly there was a pleasantly surprised voice from a certain building.

"Young master!"

A woman ran out of the brothel, her face flushed with excitement. She stood a few steps away and looked at Lin Xiu with unconcealable surprise in her eyes.

Zhao Lingyin looked at the woman, then at Lin Xiu, but said nothing.

Lin Xiu also laughed when she saw the woman in front of her, and said, "Miss Haitang, long time no see."

When Haitang heard the words, her eyes lit up slightly, and she said, "My lord, do you still remember me?"

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Miss Haitang hasn't redeemed herself yet?"

Of course Lin Xiu remembered Haitang, her animal language ability helped Lin Xiu a lot more than once.

He can avoid assassination, know the imperial concubine and empress, can successfully entice him, can make money as a secret detective, can become the top detective of the Qing Dynasty, can investigate the murderer who assassinated him, and can find the gangster hiding in the mountains... Inseparable from her ability.

It is not an exaggeration to say that she is Lin Xiu's savior.

The light in Haitang's eyes was even brighter, the young master still remembered her, the young master really remembered her!

After the farewell at Pinfang Pavilion that day, she never saw the young man who made her fall in love again. After a long investigation, she found out that he was the son of Uncle Ping'an, and both Uncle Ping'an and his wife were still alive. What he said was naturally false.

Not only was Haitang not angry, but she was also a little moved.

He made up the lie about his life experience just to comfort himself, it was a white lie, Haitang could appreciate his good intentions.

For a brothel girl like her, he is willing to spend this kind of thought. The young master is really a gentle and kind person.

She lowered her head and said with some embarrassment: "Not yet, I haven't saved enough money yet."

Lin Xiu asked, "How far is it?"

Haitang whispered: "It's still more than a hundred taels..."

Lin Xiu took out two silver bills of one hundred taels from her sleeve and handed them to her, saying, "That's enough for now."

Haitang was taken aback for a moment, then waved her hands again and again and said, "No, no, I can't ask for your money..."

Lin Xiu stuffed the two silver bills into her hand and said, "Take it, redeem yourself early, I'm still waiting for your tofu shop to open."

Not giving Haitang another chance to refuse, Lin Xiu took two steps back, waved her hand, and said, "I work in the Officials Clearance Department, if you need anything, you can come to the Officials Clearance Department to find me, if I'm not here, you can also find Liu Master Qingfengliu..."

After the two of them walked a long way, Zhao Lingyin glanced at Lin Xiu and said, "You are generous, two hundred taels of silver, and you just gave it to a girl in a brothel. Don't think that half a year ago, the entire Lin family couldn't afford so much money." ..."

If it was someone else, Lin Xiu would naturally not be so generous.

But that was Haitang, and this was what Lin Xiu owed her, not to mention two hundred taels, but twenty thousand taels, two hundred thousand taels, as long as he had it, he would give it to her as well.

He didn't explain this to Lingyin, but said: "She is a poor person."

Zhao Lingyin said: "What's so pitiful about a woman who entertains people with sex? She can support herself with her hands, but she has to rely on her body..."

Lin Xiu didn't say anything more.

When Lingyin was born, the Zhao family was already well-known and powerful in the capital.

Since she was a child, she was well-clothed and well-fed, and later she devoted herself to cultivation. She didn't understand the life of the low-level people, and it was normal.

In this world, some people are well-clothed and well-fed. From birth, they enjoy endless glory and wealth, and they live without worries.

But there are also some people, they have exhausted their best just to live.

Lin Xiu and Lingyin hadn't taken a few steps when hurried footsteps came from behind them.

Haitang trotted all the way over, a thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead, and her face was slightly red. She ran to Lin Xiu, panting slightly, and said, "Here, I will return the money to you later..."

Considering her self-esteem, Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Then I wish Miss Haitang's tofu shop a prosperous business, and save enough money to pay me back soon..."

Haitang also showed a smile on her face, and said: "With the auspicious words of my son, I will definitely work hard to make money and pay you back."

Afterwards, she felt a little embarrassed again, and said: "Also..., my name is not Haitang, I am Chen Yu, Haitang is the name they gave me, I don't like this name..."

The women who are sold into the brothel usually take a nice stage name, such as Begonia Peony, so that customers can remember them.

And their real names will never be mentioned again.

The name Haitang was originally a kind of suffering for her.

Lin Xiu smiled lightly and said, "Okay, Miss Chen, when the tofu shop opens, remember to come to the Cleaning Department and tell me..."

Brothers and sisters, during the period when it was first launched, I sat for too long every day, and my cervical spine problem became more serious. After sitting for a while, my neck and shoulders hurt so much that I didn’t have a code word status at all. In the last week, I basically used it lying down. The speed of writing on mobile phone is very slow, and I have also tried voice code words, but the effect is not very good. Recently, my thinking has actually been smooth. I could have done more, but I was dragged down by my body. When my body recovers, I will strive for more.
