Chapter 212 I don't love money
After Li Shui came back, he brought something to Gao Jianli. It was a biography that had been carried out by someone else. During the test, Gao Jianli was directly renamed by Li Shui to the second grade of high school. His identity was that of a servant of Shangjun Courtyard.
Gao Jianli didn't have much reaction when he saw this test.
To be honest, Gao Jianli has become more advanced now. He feels that wealth, honor and disgrace are all passing by. Ever since he owed Li Shui 1.8 million, Gao Jianli has looked away from everything.
He just put the test biography in his arms and asked slowly: "Exiled Immortal, what are you going to do next?"
He thought that Li Shui would give him a hoe and let him farm. However, Li Shui took out the building and said to him: "Now that I am banishing immortals, the business will not be good enough without you soliciting customers."
"So, I have to find a solution from you."
Gao Jianli hesitated and said: "If I show up again, once someone sees through my identity, I'm afraid I will be implicated in Shangjun Courtyard. What's more, I have announced before that I will no longer play."
Li Shui said: "I'm not asking you to play, I'm asking you to teach others to play. I have two idiots here. They can't weave, they can't sew, and they can't sew, let alone starch. They do a lot of work every day.
, it’s not enough for their meals, they are simply a moth in my Shangjun’s courtyard.”
"I learned a lot yesterday and thought that farm work might not be suitable for them, so I asked them to learn construction from you. After they complete the training, they can take your place in the Exorcist Tower."
Gao Jianli said: "It's okay for them to learn from me. But don't reveal my identity."
Li Shui said: "That's natural."
So, the two beauties sent by Tian Jing were brought to Gao Jianli.
At this time, Gao Jianli had a fake white beard glued on his lips and a few strands of white hair in his hair. He changed into patched clothes. Some pot ash was smeared on his face, making him look old and greasy.
And dirty.
And when he spoke, he deliberately coughed after saying a few words. Now, let alone people who have never seen him, even powerful people who have seen him may not be able to recognize him.
Naturally, the two beauties did not know that this was Mr. Gao, who had become famous recently, and thought he was some relative of Cang Fu.
Gao Jianli was hunched over and panting as he taught them how to build.
Although Gao Jianli spoke intermittently, he was highly skilled and taught students in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. The two beauties also studied very hard. After all, building was much better than weaving, and they cherished it very much.
At the end of the day, the two beauties made rapid progress and were able to play simple tunes. It is estimated that in ten days and a half, they will be able to perform at the Banished Immortal Tower.
Although their skills are far from Gao Jianli's, the looks of the two beauties should be able to make up for part of it.
After Li Shui got the news, he was filled with emotion and said to the craftsmen around him: "It turns out that these two beauties are good at building. If they had been discovered earlier, they would not have to suffer in the weaving house. It seems that people are talented.
They are different and each has their own strengths. I thought before that they were the beautiful but brainless type."
The craftsman said with a smile: "Perhaps they have been spinning all day long and have exercised their fingers. That's why they learned to build structures twice as fast."
Li Shui said: "What you said makes sense. Tell Gou Sheng later... what is his name? Gou Sheng. Let him write it down for the two girls. He said that it cost them one hundred thousand to learn how to build.
Money. Remember to report to Tian Jing."
The craftsman agreed with a smile.
Xianyang City seems to have returned to peace, and everything is as prosperous as before.
After the half-price event that day, the powerful people were no longer willing to come to the Exorcist Tower. After all, no one wanted to be tricked by Li Shui again.
But Wang Laoshi thought of a strange trick and ordered people to quietly spread some rumors in Xianyang City. It was said that a certain powerful man had some dirty little secrets, which were known by his servants. The servants told the banished immortal
, I wanted to use this as a way to advance my career and join the Shangjun Courtyard. However, I was sternly rejected by the Exalted Immortal.
But the powerful man became angry and resentful, and wanted to break off the relationship with the banished immortal. The sign of breaking off the relationship was that he would never drink the immortal wine again. In addition, he severely punished the servant at home and drove him out.
The servant was homeless, was unhappy, and wanted to take revenge on the powerful, so he spread the news without naming anyone.
Later, Wang Laoshi secretly instigated some good guys. These bad guys wandered around the Banished Immortal Tower all day long, and spread the word to see which powerful people would not come.
As a result, those powerful people were miserable and could only hold their noses and admit it. They forced a smile every day, walked around the Immortal Exile Tower, and had a drink to show that they were not the dirty people they were rumored to be.
After that, Wang Laoshi came forward to clarify hypocritically, saying that the little secret was purely nonsense. It was speculation and rumors made by some good people, simply because they were afraid that the world would not be chaotic. They might want to mess up Xianyang City with the intention of rebelling.
Later, Wang Laoshi reported it to the police and asked to track down the person who spread the rumor.
This move moved the powerful men a little.
Of course, after reporting it to the police, it was nothing. After all, everyone on the street was talking about it, so we couldn’t just arrest everyone in the city, right?
Rumors are hard to take back when they spread. Therefore, rumors about little secrets are always there, and powerful people have developed a good habit of having a drink every day.
A few days later, Wang Laoshi counted the attendance and found that there were 30% more guests than before.
At this time, I don’t know who spread the news that the powerful man with a little secret is Tian Jing. Because he has not appeared in the Banished Immortal Tower for many days.
Things like rumors get out of control once they spread. And they become more and more negative.
Some people say that Tian Jing has an abnormal relationship with his half-sister. Some say that there is a problem between Tian Jing and Mrs. Tian’s niece. Some people say that Tian Jing is well-dressed and well-fed, but his parents eat chaffy vegetables...
Every rumor had its own nose and eyes, and soon Tian Jing became a villain in Xianyang City.
All the powerful men breathed a sigh of relief. Arita Kei acted as a shield in front of them, and they were safe. So in order to celebrate, they went to the Banished Immortal Tower to have a few drinks.
Now going to Banxianlou to drink has become their lifestyle habit, and I'm afraid they can't change it even if they want to.
At this time, Tian Jing was still lying on the cave recuperating from his injuries. He had been beaten for more than a hundred times and was still recovering from the pain. He was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep all night long. Even if he wanted to go out to refute the rumors, he couldn't move at all.
Tian Jing's reputation was getting worse and worse. Although he himself was anxious, he also made Zhou Zheng and other court officials extremely anxious.
If Tian Jing's reputation was ruined, would they still have the nerve to invite Tian Jing to the banquet? If Tian Jing didn't come to the banquet, wouldn't they lose a lot of income every month?
So people like Zhou Zheng united and persuaded Tian Jing to go to the Immortal Exile Tower to show his face.
In the end, Tian Jing gritted his teeth and forced himself to go inside the Banished Immortal Tower. In public, he drank a few glasses of wine to show his innocence, and then went home.
Next, Zhou Zheng and others invited Tian Jing to visit almost every day.
Poor Tian Jing, the wound on his body has not healed yet. After drinking white wine, the wound hurt even more and it became more difficult to heal.
Tian Jing was about to cry but had no tears, and felt that he might become disabled.
…………
In Shangjun Courtyard, Li Shui and Li Xin were studying the information sent back by Heidou and Aunt Nine.
They first need to analyze whether Jing Sui did any small tricks behind the backs of two people. Next, they need to analyze whether any of the people Jing Sui has met recently include Xiang Liang.
They were lucky and seemed to have found a courier disguised as a merchant.
Instead of alerting the snake, Li Shui asked Li Xin to send out a shrewd pawn to work as a clerk for a merchant in order to find out where Xiang Liang was hiding...
The two of them were studying vigorously when they saw the calf flying towards them and said loudly: "Sir, Lord Banished Immortal. Master Fu Yao is here, and so is Princess Weiyang."
Li Shui was surprised: "Just the two of them?"
Niu Calf panted and said: "The young master and the princess each brought some guards. Apart from that, there are no other people."
Li Shui hurriedly walked outside, greeting her, and said to himself: "It's so good, why are they here? It's just that Mr. Fu Yao is here, but why is Princess Weiyang here too? Did they say the reason?
"
The calf said beside him: "No."
Li Shui hummed.
Niu Dao added: "I have followed the banished immortal's instructions and exempted Mr. Fu Yao from the ticket price, and let him in together with his bodyguard for free."
Li Shui suddenly stared at the calf uneasily: "You wouldn't... take Weiyang's money, would you?"
Niu Da smiled proudly: "How could that be possible? Not only did I confiscate the money, but I also gave her maid a string and a half taels. The maid was so happy that she couldn't help but tell the princess that banishing an immortal is such a rare gentleman."
Li Shui laughed loudly and said, "You can teach me."
Then he asked again: "You only sent the maid as a gift?"
Niu Calf said: "The guards are all men, so they must not be close to the princess, so giving them to her is for free. As for the princess, such a big gift should naturally be reserved for the adults. What kind of person is the villain, who can give gifts to the princess?"
Li Shui nodded and praised: "It's thoughtful and very good. Go tell Tietou to use your special skills and cook me a table of dishes."
The calf ran away in a hurry.
Later, Li Shui saw Wei Young who had already entered the door.
She pulled Fu Yao and was looking around with curiosity on her face.
Li Shui went up to greet her and asked with a smile: "Why is the princess here?"
Wei Yang smiled slightly and said: "I own 30% of the shares here, and I want to come and see if the money has been embezzled by Mr."
Li Shuigan laughed and said: "Princess, you are worrying too much. Money is like a floating cloud to me. I don't love money at all..."
Just as he said this, Wang Laoshi ran in happily from outside the door: "Sir, our Immortal Exile Tower has made another huge profit recently."
He took out a piece of paper and said happily: "This is the income in the past ten days. Those powerful people in Guandong are already drinking and having fun. It is estimated that after the builders arrive, the income will increase by 30%.
"
Li Shui really wanted to kick this guy out.
When Wang was telling the truth, he noticed that Li Shui's eyes were not friendly and he was a little confused: "Is 30%... still less?"
Li Shui coughed and said, "Don't bother me with these mundane things. I am an immortal in heaven, and I am busy refining elixirs every day. How can I think about how to make money?"
Wang Laoshi scratched his head and left with a puzzled look on his face. Before leaving, he muttered: "Don't have the heart to study? Didn't the two of us come up with this strategy together?"
