Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Buying a House

Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Buying a HouseAt 3:30 in the morning, Xu Qi'an rode on his beloved mare, which would never get stuck in traffic, and hurried to the Sitianjian. In the warm reception of the white-robed sorcerers, he found Chu Caiwei who was listening to Song Qing's teachings.

"Miss Caiwei, I want to buy a house in the inner city. I know that the Sitianjian can observe Feng Shui, so I want to ask you for help." Xu Qi'an pointed out his purpose.

Chu Caiwei looked away from the bottles and jars on the table and raised her face. The face of an 18-year-old girl looked pink and tender.

She was beautiful and pink, with bright and blinking big eyes, and the whites of her eyes were as clear as a baby, looking extremely pure.

As we all know, the eyes of young children are clear, bright, and pure, because their whites of their eyes are clear.

Unlike adults, as they grow older, the whites of their eyes will become turbid and bloodshot. Chu Caiwei's eyes are as clear as a baby's, big and bright, and very beautiful.

"I want to learn alchemy, so I won't go." Chu Caiwei puffed her cheeks and turned her face away.

Is she having her period? She's not in a good mood... Xu Qian'an guessed in his heart, and heard Song Qing say, "I'll ask a junior brother to accompany you."

What do I need a junior brother for? No! This kind of thing can only be meaningful if a junior sister accompanies her. Who wants to go shopping with a grown man? Xu Qian'an shook his head, declined Song Qing's kindness, and said:

"Why is Miss Caiwei like this today... smearing feces on the wall?"

Chu Caiwei answered seriously with her little face: "I've been stuck as a seventh-grade Feng Shui master for more than a year. I could have been promoted to alchemy a long time ago, but alchemy is too difficult, tiring and boring..."

Well, I understand. Science and engineering are women's nightmares.

Chu Caiwei continued, "Moreover, to be promoted to a sixth-grade alchemist, you need to independently complete a new alchemy, promote it, and get positive feedback from the people, so that you can be successfully promoted."

Xu Qian'an didn't understand this sentence: "Get feedback from the people?"

"Do you know who made the gunpowder?"

"How do I know this?"

"Gunpowder was made by a Feng Shui master of the Sitianjian three hundred years ago. After he promoted the gunpowder, he was recognized by the people and promoted to an alchemist. Of course, it doesn't mean that you have to make something shocking. Brother Song Qing was promoted to an alchemist because he made colored glaze." Chu Caiwei said, "The key is the feedback from the people."

It turns out that it was Song Qing, you bastard, who destroyed my plan to make money... Xu Qian'an hated it in his heart and wondered, "Why do I need to get feedback from the people?"

Chu Caiwei immediately looked at Song Qing, who paused for a moment and said, "This is the secret of the Si Tian Jian. It's okay to tell you, but remember not to spread it."

Seeing Xu Qian'an nod, Song Qing said, "What do you think is the difference between the Si Tian Jian and other cultivation systems?"

"To serve the country and the people, to make selfless contributions, is particularly noble." Xu Qian'an said seriously.

Such an answer made Song Qing and the white-robed magicians beside him smile unconsciously.

Mr. Xu is worthy of being a close friend of the Si Tian Jian... Song Qing nodded with satisfaction, and his tone became enthusiastic: "Yes, you are a person with a very unique and accurate vision, which makes me admire you very much.

"In all major systems, the ninth grade is the foundation. In fact, the uniqueness of the ninth grade represents the core of the system. The martial artist's refining realm, the Confucianist's awakening realm, and the Buddhist monk realm."

The core of a warrior's refining realm is the body, which is the foundation of a warrior... The Confucian awakening realm, uh, does this mean that if you don't have a brain, don't study? The Buddhist novice monk realm, the little novice monk must observe the precepts, and receiving the precepts is the foundation for the monk to comprehend the Dharma... What about the ninth-grade doctor realm of the sorcerer? Doctors don't seem to have much to do with sorcerers, right?

Xu Qian'an pondered, and Song Qing saw that he hadn't awakened yet, so he reminded him: "The ninth-grade doctor is not a doctor in essence, but a person. The sorcerer system follows the human way, so the achievements of the sixth-grade alchemist need the recognition of the people, so the Sitianjian needs to rely on the court."

The sorcerers follow the human path? It should not be the human path I think of... No wonder these white-clothed people are so proud, but what they do is "serving the people"; No wonder the supervisors of all dynasties are the guardians of the capital, it turns out that they must rely on the court... This reminds me of Confucianism, which also needs to rely on the court. Confucianism has no second-grade masters so far. According to Erlang's words, it is very likely that their official careers have been cut off. This is like a seventh-grade Feng Shui master who cannot be recognized by the people, so he has never been promoted?

If there is a human path, then there must be other paths. In addition to the superficial system differences, there is also a distinction of "path" behind them?

"Are there any clues about the new alchemy?" Xu Qian'an asked.

Song Qing glanced at his junior sister and said helplessly: "You are not smart and don't like to study. Alas, I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Several other white-clothed sorcerers shook their heads and expressed pessimism about Chu Caiwei's promotion.

"For junior sister Caiwei... we can only rely on chance."

"Alas, the supervisor teacher doesn't care. Maybe he thinks that my junior sister is a girl and Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

doesn't need a high realm."

"We can't do anything about it."

The white-robed sorcerers said with regret and sighed.

Chu Caiwei pouted, like a poor student with bad grades, sighing in front of the elders.

There is no chicken essence in this world. I don't know if making chicken essence can be considered as completing an alchemy. Xu Qian'an pondered and said, "For this, I have a way." Swish! On the spot, all the white-robed people in the alchemy room looked over, their eyes

shining with gold.

"Really, is there really a way?" Song Qing widened his eyes, with both the ecstasy of learning a new alchemy and the relief of an old father who finally solved a problem.

"Mr. Xu, are you serious? "The white-clothed people came over excitedly, and those who were busy doing alchemy experiments also put down their work and stared at Xu Qi'an with

great expectation.

"I have to give you a reply in a few days." After Xu Qi'an said this, he looked at Chu Caiwei: "Miss Caiwei, are you free today?"

"Yes, yes..." The white-clothed magicians in the room said in unison.

Song Qing pushed Chu Caiwei to stand up and said earnestly: "Mr. Xu is a nobleman of our Sitianjian. Isn't he hundreds of times more important than alchemy? Today you will accompany him to stroll around the inner city."

Chu Caiwei was pushed into the wolf's den by her senior brothers.

Xu Qi'an brought Chu Caiwei to the pawnshop, and an old broker came up to greet him enthusiastically: "My old man, are you buying a property or renting a house?"

It's the old man. In his previous life, he was entertained by curvy women in uniforms... Xu Qian'an complained in his heart, but smiled on the surface: "Property purchase."

The smile on the old agent's face became more and more enthusiastic. The commission for renting a house and purchasing a property is incomparable.

"What scale?"

"Three courtyards, right?"

The smile on the old agent's face was not enthusiastic, but he almost cried with joy when he

saw his father who had been separated for many years.

He was so excited for a reason. In the inner city, depending on the location, the price of a house with three courtyards is between 5,000 and 10,000 taels of silver, not to mention

ordinary small courtyards.

Houses with three courtyards or more are not something that ordinary people can buy. The pawnshop has not sold a large house of this level this year, and it will be profitable for a year

after opening.

"Do you have a house you like?" The old agent asked humbly.

"Houses between 5,000 and 7,000 taels, make a list and send it over. "Xu Qiyan sat down with

a big horse and golden sword, holding a teacup, and drank a sip of what was probably the best quality green tea in the pawnshop.

The taste was average, far inferior to the one in Wei Yuan Teahouse.

Soon, several lists were listed. Xu Qiyan took them and glanced at them. After carefully

recalling for a moment, he directly eliminated three of them and kept only one.

"Why do you only want this house?" Chu Caiwei took out a handful of candied fruits from her

deerskin waist bag like a magic trick.

"Because the house above is close to the Jiaofangsi." Xu Qiyan raised his eyebrows and

smiled.

The location and area of the house were listed on the paper. More detailed information needed to be checked separately. Xu Qiyan glanced at it and found a house with a good location and a large area, but the price was much lower than other houses. The pawnshop number was: Yi Er Shi San.

"Old man, why is this house so much cheaper? "Xu Qiyan asked calmly.

The price of Yi Er Shi San is 5,500 taels of silver, and the price of a house of the same level is

more than 7,000 taels.

"It's cheap for a reason..." The old agent looked around and said in a low voice:

"That house is evil and cannot be lived in. You should choose another one."

Xu Qiyan and Chu Caiwei looked at each other and thought, evil? Then I, the night watchman, really have to go and see what kind of evil it is.

However, Xu Qiyan was not reckless and asked cautiously: "What's going on? Old man, tell

me."

Although the capital is the territory of the night watchman, there are indeed many unknown masters hiding there, or there are indeed some very evil places. Xu Qiyan heard a lot of weird legends about the capital when he was a child.

ps: I suddenly found out something very embarrassing. The name of the academy was "Bailu Academy" at the beginning, and slowly, it became Yunlu Academy. The most ridiculous thing is that I didn't realize it until today. It spans more than 100 chapters. Everyone just tacitly

agreed.
