Chapter 183 Borrowing money
Jiu Jianxian thought for a while and said frankly: "It's my first time getting married, but I don't understand the details of these marriage customs and rules. When I was playing in the world, I had sneaked into a wedding banquet for wealthy families and secretly drank the 18-year-old daughter Hong, and I had witnessed the wedding of wealthy families in the world with my own eyes."
Touching the head of the little snake spirit who was well-behavedly, the latter closed his eyes comfortably, and the Jiujianxian smiled and said, "I am a very old man. With the lifespan of the human race, I have reached the age of becoming a father. I know how important the etiquette of getting married is to girls' families. It is a wonderful memory they will remember for the rest of their lives. Even if you don't say it, I will do my best to prepare a grand marriage of ten miles of red makeup for each of them!"
The Emperor of Heaven was stunned. This was not the answer she wanted. As far as she knew, the Jiu Jianxian was a poor ghost immortal. She had no assets except the ragged clothes on her body, the wine gourd on her back and a long sword on her back.
Luo Feng instigated her in the headphones and taught her to use the opportunity of asking for a bride price to blackmail the Shushan School Taoist Techniques of Jiu Jianxian. She was so concerned about marrying her daughter, but she didn't expect that the old Taoist would look like a generous gift, which was beyond expectations.
The Emperor Tiangui tilted his head and said suspiciously: "The standard of this emperor's marriage to a daughter must not be low. If you calculate it, you will definitely not be able to handle it without hundreds of thousands of taels of gold. I will naturally not be stingy with the dowry, but my daughter will only give it to you after she gets married. Where did you get the money to do that ten miles of red-branded wedding?"
Jiu Jianxian spread his hands and said, "I really have no money...but... it's not that I can't find a way to raise money."
The Emperor of Heavenly Ghost quickly interrupted and said, "I have just copied the Song Dynasty Treasury and the Royal Treasury, and I can give it to you, as long as you get the Shushan Sect's cultivation secrets..."
"Don't even think about it!"
Jiu Jianxian sneered: "I was fooled once, how could I go to the second time? I gave the Shushan Sect secret book to the demons for money. Do you really think I am crazy? After getting the money, it would be strange if I had a life. I am afraid that I would be killed by the thunder of the sects who ascended Shushan at the wedding!"
The Emperor of Heavenly Ghost was seen through his thoughts and said angrily: "Then how do you raise money? You must know that I have a good appetite and eat people very quickly. You don't have much time!"
Jiu Jianxian said: "This has nothing to do with you, I will find a way!"
The Emperor Tiangui was so angry that he sat on the imperial throne and stamped his feet. He wanted to continue to force him, and insisted that he had to use the secret book as a bride price, but he still held back and didn't say it out.
Once she said it, her kind and filial disguise was completely revealed. Both parties torn their faces apart, marrying their daughter into selling them, and in the end they would lose both their personal wealth and not get anything.
The dedicated female fairies do not talk about national justice, and are quite willing to pursue love. The Tiangui Emperor uses them as objects and threatens them in a way that violates their love man's bottom line. They may simply rebel against the demon clan and elope with the Jiujianxian without hesitation.
The Emperor of Heaven is also a bit humane ghost. It was a good thing to marry her daughter to repay her kindness to her godfather. If she ruined this good thing because of her greed for the practice of Shushan School, it would be unfair. Not only would she not be able to repay her kindness, but she would also make enemies, which would be detrimental to her subsequent plans.
He suppressed his unhappiness, and the Emperor of Heavenly Ghost held his arms and raised his legs and said, "Okay! I will give you three days to prepare. If you can't afford to raise tribute or hold a wedding celebration in three days, I will pay for you to hold a meal. However, the dishes at the wedding banquet must be cooked with human flesh from the royal family of the Song Dynasty!"
The Tiangui Emperor's heart that won over the Jiujianxian was not dead yet. Even if this poor man could not afford the bride price, his daughter would still be able to marry. What he liked was the peak combat power of the old Taoist world.
The Emperor of Heaven had already planned that even if he spent money himself, he would hold a grand wedding that sensationalized the human world, and he would definitely make this matter known to everyone in the world.
If everyone in the world knew that Jiu Jianxian became the son-in-law of the demon clan and married seven charming demon princesses, what would people think?
They must believe that the hero of the Jiujianxian was sad to pass the beauty, shamelessly betrayed the human race, and devoted themselves to the demon side!
Jiu Jianxian jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it clearly. Even if he wanted to be loyal to the human race, he would not be accepted. Instead, he was excluded, suppressed, and even chased.
Then the plan to instruct the seven little banshees to blow the wind beside their pillows, and the plan to pull the ruined Jiu Jianxian into the demon camp is really possible!
The Jiujianxian and the Tiangui Emperor made an agreement. Three days later, they came to formally propose marriage with a tribute gift and married seven princesses. Both parties wrote the marriage book and signed the seal. The old Taoist turned around and left the hall in a hurry, and wanted to find a way to raise money.
He pulled out the flying sword and was about to step on it when he met Tengkong, but when the Jiujianxian remembered that he was holding his pants with his other hand, and he could not control the flying sword with one hand.
Just as he was embarrassed, a little golden snake swam out of the hall, climbed up along the legs of the Jiujianxian, wrapped it around his waist, bit his tail with his mouth, and turned into a golden belt.
The little banshee was so gentle, considerate and sensible that the Jiujianxian felt a little warm in her heart. She touched the slightly cold snake-skin belt with care, controlled the flying sword to the sky, and galloped towards the south.
How can Jiujianxian raise a huge bride price?
In fact, he didn't have much money to raise money, and the only way to go is to find a rich friend to borrow.
There are many friends of the Jiujianxian, and only two people can take out hundreds of thousands of taels of gold at a time. One is the Shiwei National Master Nangong Huang, and the other is Jing Xiaolou, the world's number one prodigal son.
The Jiujianxian did not plan to go to the territory of the Shiwei clan. The territory of the Shiwei was located in the northern grassland. Even if it was driven by the flying sword for three days, it would be difficult to run a round trip. Moreover, the Shiwei nationality is a grassland nation, and its territory is poor and the country is in a difficult situation. Nangong Huang could only help the Jiujianxian collect 100,000 taels of gold unless he misappropriated the national treasury silver and hollowed out the savings of the Shiwei country.
With the loyalty of Huang Daxian, he must have tried his best to help Jiu Jianxian raise money to get married, but this would cause too much trouble for his friends, and Jiu Jianxian was really sorry.
Jing Xiaolou is also a loyal person. The Jing family is the second rich family in the world. It should not be difficult to give out hundreds of thousands of taels of gold. Jiu Jianxian was forced to do so and could only eat his wealthy family and beg him to defeat the family again.
I was worried that I would be too late to go back, all the royal family of the Song Dynasty were eaten up by the Heavenly Ghost Emperor. The Jiujianxian traveled day and night. At midnight when it was dark, it took half a day to rush back to the Shushan Base Camp from Chang'an.
He drove the flying sword and landed directly at the door of Jing Xiaolou's room in Shushan Daying. Through the window, he saw candlelight lit inside. Someone was sitting on the desk and reading at night. Jiu Jianxian pushed open the door and walked in.
Jing Xiaolou sat in front of the desk, correcting the official documents at the desk. When he heard the door ringing, he looked up and saw that it was Jiu Jianxian coming in, he was stunned and said, "Brother Situ, why are you back? What's the situation in Chang'an?"
The Jiujianxian flew for a long time and was exhausted. He pulled over a stool and sat next to Jing Xiaolou, picked up the teapot on the table and took a big mouthful of tea.
"The people of Chang'an are safe for the time being, and the demons have kept their promises. The royal family and the nobles have suffered the disaster. They have all been arrested and taken into rations by the demons!"
Jiu Jianxian said with a hoarse voice: "I will tell you about the situation in Chang'an later. Brother Jing, I need some money when I encounter something urgent. Can you lend me it?"
Jing Xiaolou smiled and said, "Borrow money? Haha, I'm interested in some sky-high wine. I'm going to say whether to borrow it or not. If you want to spend it, you can spend it casually. By the way, how much money do you need, I can let the butler prepare it."
Jiu Jianxian looked embarrassed. Although he always liked to rely on one or two bottles of good wine and was not very thin-skinned, he was really embarrassed to borrow hundreds of thousands of taels of gold at once. He held it in a long time before saying, "Brother, I'm not to hide it. Brother, I want to borrow money to get a wife. The other party and I ask for a bride price of hundreds of thousands of taels of gold..."
Jing Xiaolou frowned and said, "Brother, are you kidding me or did you hear it wrong? Are you not a Taoist priest? Why are you going to get married suddenly? Also, the bride price costs hundreds of thousands of taels of gold, and it doesn't take so much money to marry a princess, right?"
"This...it's a long story...it's time now, so it's not convenient to explain in detail."
Jiu Jianxian said with a bitter face: "I'm not kidding for my brother, it really requires so much money. The other party has set a time limit. If I can't afford the money within three days, everything will be over."
Jing Xiaolou sighed and said, "Brother Situ, you know my character. Even if I lose everything to help my friend, I won't blink. Unfortunately, the League of Legends just suffered a great defeat and killed more than 3,000 people in battle. I paid the pension. The Jing family's old foundation was emptied by me. Hundreds of thousands of taels of gold, but I really can't make it up now. I'm sorry."
Jiu Jianxian was very disappointed and smiled helplessly, "Oh, I'm sorry for me. I wasted half of my life and didn't even save my wife. My old man was still in a worldly mind and wanted to marry a wife. God couldn't stand it. I set a level for me to be unable to pass. This is fate..."
Jing Xiaolou patted the shoulder of the Jiu Jianxian and advised: "Brother, don't be discouraged. Marrying a wife is a great joy. How can you give up because of this twists and turns? If you have any difficulties, just find a way to solve them? Otherwise, I'll just save them and borrow them from the richest man. The gold and silver that man saved seemed endless. Just by fighting Dugu Yuyun with Dugu Yuyun on the top of Shushan Mountain, he smashed millions of taels of gold and tens of millions of taels of silver. He was also a generous person who didn't care much about money. He shook his hands and threw them out."
"I'd better go to him to borrow money? I'd better go to the King of Hell!"
It would be fine if Luo Feng was not mentioned. When he mentioned him, the Jiujianxian suddenly became angry and said angrily: "That profiteer is a person who is not at a loss! I drank him a little wine and was plundered. The Shushan Sect and him borrowed some money to comfort the dead and injured. The old nest was taken by him. If he came to him again this time, I don't know how he would mess with me!"
Jing Xiaolou shrugged and said with a smile: "Brother, the Shushan Sect has been requisitioned by the human guards. The secret sect is full of his secrets. No matter how cunning he is, he can't get rid of anything from you, right? You only have more than 100 kilograms of lees left on your body. What are you afraid of? You can't sell you to a brothel to pay off your debts."
