Chapter 95: Li Shan Guang Kai's Calling
Through conversations between the meal, Li Zisheng then realized how the thirteenth son of the Tie family had fallen into this place.
In fact, this man was considered a little asset. At the beginning of the year, he wanted to make a fortune by using the shortage of food to save money over the past few years, and of course he would lose all his money in the end... Li Zisheng also made a small contribution.
Of course, although this speculation against Tie Qianzhuang was considered a damaging move, it did not make him fall to the point where he was so debt-to-debt.
The reason why he went to borrow money... was for those subordinates who died in battle!
The source of the Tie family's private soldiers is divided into two types:
One is that when a family like the Zhu father and son gave birth to a child, although they lost their personal freedom, they were protected by personal protection. Even if the pillars of the family were unfortunately killed in battle, their relatives would not be unable to survive. This is why so many civilians in Zhongzhou and in ancient times were willing to join the wealthy family and become servants.
At the beginning, the private soldiers of the Tie family were actually all servants below. Although the title of servant soldiers was not good, their loyalty and combat skills were guaranteed. However, as the wealthy families like the Tie family shifted their focus from preparing for military activities to economic activities, the number of servant soldiers plummeted, and talented servants all went to manage the industry.
That's why there is a second type, which is the regular soldiers recruited from outside, which are actually hired workers for military purposes.
This is also directly related to the popularization of martial arts in the Middle Agriculture and...land annexation. Especially the land annex caused by the "scientific and technological progress" of agriculture over the past century has caused a large number of self-cultivated farmers to lose their land and become tenants or refugees, so they have enough idle and strong labor to join the army.
Most of the one or two or fifty horsemen under the Iron Thousand Tower were soldiers of the second source, and the families of these soldiers who died in battle naturally received a pension.
As a veteran wealthy family, the Tie family is not short of this money, so the pension paid is quite generous on weekdays, but their deaths were "inappropriate" and happened to catch the soaring price of grain, so these orphans and widows asked Tie Sima's door...
After dinner, the uncle and nephew talked about the mine-raised business again. Finally, Tie Qianzhuang listened to the advice of his cheap nephew and planned to use his connections to do a "market survey" first, and then "inspection" the diving equipment made by Hu Kaishan, and finally make a decision.
After saying this, Li Zisheng hesitated for a moment and told him another thing he had originally wanted to say: "Uncle Thirteen, I have something to ask for..."
"You, you, you... I really don't know if you are bold or whimsical. No, this is absolutely not possible!" Tie Qianzhuang only heard the beginning, then turned his head like a rattle and refused to say unscrupulously.
Li Zisheng was not angry, and he said calmly: "Uncle Thirteen, don't be busy refusing. If, I said, what if the master died at that time? Do you dare to do it?"
Tie Qianzhuang looked at the calm boy with a very strange look. After a while, he spoke: "I said to Li's nephew, do you know who you are talking about? He is..."
The boy raised his hand and interrupted, "Uncle Thirteen, of course I know who he is! What I said is if, if that guy died in the ring game... or was seriously injured, would you dare to help my nephew?"
"Hahaha, if you really have that great ability to kill him, well, it's okay to be seriously injured..." Tie Shisan laughed to the sky, "Then I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman and be a great person to save the suffering!"
"Okay, a gentleman's words..." Li Zisheng beat the snake and followed the stick.
"It's hard to chase after you!" The master also felt a sense of pride in his heart, "But..."
The young man knew the meaning of elegance when he heard the string song. He smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Thirteen, don't worry. My nephew definitely has no intention of letting you do this for nothing."
As he said that, he took out a leather book from his arms and placed it in front of Tie Qianzhuang, saying, "This is the activity funding I have given you. After the matter is done, I will naturally report it. Whether it is Yuanshi or the shares of that salvage company."
Tie Shisan picked up the leather book and looked through it. He couldn't help but sucked his teeth and said, "It seems that you are really serious about this?"
Li Zisheng did not answer. He stood up and gave a big gift to Tie Qianzhuang respectfully and seriously, saying, "I'm sorry, please Uncle Thirteen!"
On that morning, Li Zisheng, who did three things in the afternoon and evening, returned to Xinyishun Hall with a relaxed mood. By the next day, he naturally returned to Tieshan Academy.
As the saying goes, good fortune depends on misfortune, and misfortune depends on good fortune. The cup of poisonous wine that Li Zisheng drank was not completely unhealthy.
Although this glass of wine is poisonous, it contains a lot of spiritual energy, which is enough to break the boy's meridians. Fortunately, there was Tie Qianzhuang's slap and cold white transfer treatment.
Li Zisheng was in pain at the time because he absorbed the toxicity and some medicines from the wine in his body, but with the help of the little "Huangdi" in his spleen, he successfully converted these medicines into true qi.
Therefore, it took him only five days to open more than a dozen acupoints, and just the last ten acupoints were missing to open the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian!
March 14th, tomorrow is the opening day of the Hundred Treasures Conference.
These days, even the Taoist students in the academy are absent-minded, and everyone's attention is focused on this grand event. Of course, there is also a contribution from Li Zisheng.
If this young man was a little famous in the previous Tieshan City, it would not be a false statement. But his fame is mainly within the Tie family and Tieshan Academy, as well as business people who have relationships with Yishuntang, and finally those die-hard fans of the Li family's third young master.
How could anyone else know that a child from a small family who had just entered the Star Realm at the age of twelve?
However, this time, Jingnan Express and Pioneer News attracted the attention of the whole city, making Li Zisheng a popular chicken in Tieshan City.
The young hero who killed the Mi thief leader.
A kind young man who sells grain regardless of the ban.
Miss Tie San's adopted son and prospective son-in-law.
A striking figure in Tieshan Academy.
The president of "Pioneer" is the young owner of Xinyi Shuntang, and the captain of the Young Pioneer Team...
These stories immediately cast a legendary color on Li Zisheng, allowing hundreds of thousands of people in Tieshan City to know that there was such a young man in the city.
Well, in fact, this is also a "good thing" that Li Zisheng did not stop doing it, and the cooperation of his father Li Zhaochang is indispensable.
It is better to make your son stand out and become a hero than to make your son famous and become a playboy.
At this time, Lord Li had to be tied up on a chariot by his "rebellious son" and walked all the way to the dark.
Of course, this also made the life of Jingnanlianghui and Fang Tianya a little sad.
Especially the rumors about the one hundred and eight boys, actually... this is really not the rumor.
After all, the ancestral blood-tempering technique of Huanglong Cave is just a tacit "well-known secret" of the upper class of Jingnan. Now that this layer of window paper has been broken, the reputation of the Huanglong bridal chamber has suddenly become terrible in the hearts of the general public.
What’s particularly exciting is that Fang Tianya’s father, the current cave owner of Huanglong Cave, was indeed sick.
Once these two strokes are combined, Fang Da Zhenren is like yellow mud falling from his crotch. If he is not Xiang, he will be Xiang.
However, Li Zisheng didn't care about these things. The only thing he cares about now is: that is, to open up his first serious meridian, the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian.
Now, the last Lidui point is missing.
The boy opened his eyes, let out a long sigh, then picked up the jade bottle next to him and shook it, there was the last vital energy pill inside.
His realm is so rapid these days, which is not unrelated to these initial auxiliary pills. The only one left in the ten bottles of Yuanqi pills given by the Tie family is now the last one.
Five pieces of this Yuanqi Pill per bottle, which also means that the young man ate 7749 pieces in just one and a half months. If it weren't for the Central Wuji Heavenly Emperor in his spleen, his future would have been considered useless.
However, it is precisely because of this villain who looks more and more similar to the young man that his cultivation speed is so fast.
There are 45 acupoints in the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian, and the young man has been practicing for exactly 44 days today, which is one acupoint a day. This is indeed a genius-level cultivation speed!
Li Zisheng poured the last pill of Yuanqi pill into his hands, calmed down, and raised his hand to put the pill into his mouth.
The medicinal power formed by the Yuanqi Pill replenishes the youth's energy and physical strength, and of course the true qi is like the last Lidui point in the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian that launches the final attack.
The true energy that Li Zisheng stimulated was like flowing water, without any sharpness, but under the long flow of thin water, the Lidui acupoint was like the forty-four acupoints before, and was swelled down by his light yellow true energy.
After spending a month and a half, he finally opened the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian!
Before the boy could be happy, he realized that the villain in his body had made a strange move.
He spread his legs into horse stances, put his fists on his waist, exhale with his mouth but not inhale.
Li Zisheng couldn't help but stand up and began to exhale in this position.
Logically speaking, just exhale and don’t inhale. When the air in the lungs is completely emptied, people will naturally inhale.
But the boy didn't feel short of breath at all.
“Hu…hu…hu…hu…hu…hu…hu…”
He exhaleed loudly, but he didn't need to inhale at all, as if countless vents had grown on his skin to absorb the surrounding air.
In fact, it was not that the boy got fresh air from somewhere, but that he expelled all the turbid air from his body. Now that he entered his body, there was only... earth-shaped vitality!
Li Zisheng felt something strange as he shouted. He accidentally saw his right palm and was surprised to find that there was a yellow light flashing on his hand, just like a glove made of light.
He looked up with his hands, with a layer of dim yellow light on his forearm, big arms, shoulders, chest, waist, abdomen, crotch, legs, and finally, there was a layer of dim yellow light on his feet.
Li Zisheng seemed to be wearing a piece of armor made of light! To be precise, it was a light armor made of earth energy.
The young man thus obtained his second supernatural power, and he immediately decided to name this supernatural power...
Lishan Guangkai Calling the Dharma!
