Chapter 1149 1149: Artemisia (Part 2) [Please vote]
General Gongxi Qiu waved his hand in front of Shen Tang’s eyes.
said: "What, you are too happy?"
He was absolutely sure that Mama was distracted just now. If he took the opportunity to attack and assassinate her, she would not be able to escape. This is not a powerful person. The qualities a warrior should have. Gong Xiqiu was a little unhappy at first - Xun Yongan shook his head when he saw his eldest brother taking the blame - but after Mama's reaction, he felt relieved again.
That’s it, that’s all.
A close friend should share blessings and misfortunes.
In these days, Gong Xiqiu finally realized how pitiful Shen Tang was as the leader of the country. He did not enjoy the glory and wealth at all, but the pain was spent in three hundred and sixty-five days. I have no money in my wallet when I go out, so I need to borrow money to entertain my friends. My style is all supported by Chu Wuhui's few love generators and the three-province system in the palace. Otherwise, I can't even afford decent clothes for the four seasons. Isn't this outrageous?
When the eldest brother found out, his eyes were red and he was about to cry.
Also, for the high priest, Mama is the statue of the god enshrined on the altar. It is disrespectful not to cast a solid idol of pure gold, but to just put a few layers of gold foil on the outside. Seeing his eldest brother trying to remember what the old clan had to offer, Gong Xiqiu rolled his eyes while crossing his shoulders.
【Why don't you demolish all the ancestral halls? 】
Gong Xiqiu remembered that the old priest said that the main material of the old ancestral hall was gold, besides red sandalwood. It was large and magnificent, and even the floor tiles of the main hall were mixed with a lot of gold. These metals are precious in the world, but they are more precious than a morsel of food in the clan. In addition to the gold, there are a bunch of white, red, yellow, green stones, and a bunch of small white sparkling stones.
Jimo Qiu thought for a while: [It can be dismantled. 】
Anyway, the souls of the tribe have returned to the embrace of the gods. The so-called ancestral hall is not as important as the secular world. It is basically only used for meetings of the tribe. What’s more, the old tribe’s land has long been abandoned, and the new ancestral hall was built in the later tribe. land. The old ancestral hall can be demolished.
Gong Xiqiu almost choked on his saliva.
【Can this be dismantled? Then simply dismantle the statue. 】
The statues of the new tribe are carved from huge rocks.
The gods of the Lao tribe are carefully carved from gold and precious stones.
Well, pure gold, solid.
It’s just not as big as the stone statue.
Jimo Qiu hesitated for a moment: [...that's okay too. 】
Gong Xiqiu was speechless: [That is a statue of a god. 】
If you want to move it away, you may have to cut it into pieces, melt them into gold bricks, and transport them away piece by piece. This is absolutely disrespectful!
Jimo Qiu has good reasons: [The statue of a god is just a container that carries a ray of divine thought. The spiritual thought does not exist, it is just a decoration. 】
The worship lies in the human heart rather than the appearance.
【This is really——it doesn’t hurt to give away the ancestral property. ] Gong Xiqiu knew that he could not stop his eldest brother's decision to give away his ancestral property, so he simply gave up. [Forget it, let's just treat it as targeted poverty alleviation. After all, I am the only remaining member of the clan, and I have a share of the ancestral property. My brother can just leave me a box, and I don’t want any more. 】
【what would you like? 】
[Uncle said it’s called Shining Shining. ] As he said that, Gong Xiqiu took out an exquisite and gorgeous pearl and diamond hair chain studded with shiny gems from his arms, [It's just this sparkling white! The old priest said that there is a big pit in the old clan's land specifically for storing this kind of stuff. 】
He is not interested in anything else.
I only like the shiny white stones.
The old priest also gave him a handful, large and small. After cutting and polishing, it was really shiny. When he was young, his uncle would inlay various stones and pearls into hair ropes, and then braid the hair ropes into small braids. As he grew up, his aesthetics changed.
Colorful is too flashy, simple and elegant is better.
However, children prefer this.
Gong Xiqiu made up a few of them in his spare time, preparing them for Alai's daughter. He didn't know how long she had been pregnant and whether she could be tied up. What did Jimo Qiu think it was: "It turns out to be a diamond. If you want it, you can pinch it with daily practice. With your strength, you can make several boxes in ten days and a half..."
If it were a public Xiqiu thought it was too troublesome, so he could do it for him.
Gong Xi Qiu’s face collapsed: [Ah, I pinched it myself? 】
No, is this thing so cheap?
Jimo Qiudao: [What else? 】
Gong Xiqiu can indeed do it now, but he is not familiar with the process, so it will be more difficult at the beginning. Once you gain more experience and become a skilled worker, your production capacity will make a qualitative leap. However, it is rare for an older brother to ask for it. As an elder brother, he should be satisfied.
Gong Xiqiu: [...]
It took Shen Tang a while to recover from the joy of a windfall, and he said, "Hand-rolled diamonds? I want to learn too!"
Gong Xiqiu was almost speechless.
“When big brother comes back to teach me, I will teach you.”
Good friends should share blessings and share misfortunes!
Shen Tang nodded like a fool: "Absolutely learn! Only aristocratic families are worthy of being decorated with the biggest! The flashiest! The most gorgeous diamonds. With such a sharp weapon in hand, you can't cut a wave of leeks." I'm sorry for myself! Didn't your elder brother say that there is a minimum threshold? When not fighting, brave warriors can also shine elsewhere!"
This is re-employment! .
The employment opportunities for Wudan major graduates have expanded again!
Gong Xiqiu curled his lips: "Who are you selling to? Isn't he stupid?"
Shen Tang swung his fingers from side to side: "NONONO, you don't understand people's hearts. There is a saying that wealth does not mean wealth. Returning to your hometown, walking at night like a robe! Who knows that you are rich? In the same way, if these aristocratic families and royal nobles don’t display things that symbolize their status, such as clothing and carriages, who would know that their status is higher than that of ordinary people?”
< br>This is the same truth throughout the ages.
Shen Tang picked the pearl hairband on his braid with his fingers.
"Tell me, if you and your eldest brother hadn't shown off these pearls, who would have known how many pearls you have? All the pearls in Kang State have been sold by you two brothers. The supply of pearls exceeds the demand. How many pearl farmers can you feed?" Xu Quan, president of the Xiqiu Conservation Association, took the lead in promoting it to him, and pearls were in hot demand. Young people pursue pearls, why don’t noble families pursue diamonds?
What a truth!
Gong Xiqiu frowned and said: "But this thing..."
Shen Tang closed his palm and said with a smile: "It's cheap! But it's small in quantity. A martial artist of your level Brave Warriors are expensive! They are rare and expensive, these are attributes that are sought after by buyers! This is like the once hot-selling Velvet Flowers."
How much money did the Velvet Flowers make when they first came out?
It can be called a cash cow in the early stages of entrepreneurship! Unfortunately, there are no technical barriers to this thing. As those skilled embroiderers slowly figure it out, making money is not as easy as before. With the promotion, velvet flowers also began to be rolled inward, into patterns and shapes.
Even so, it is still a stable income.
Because Shen Tang has already established a brand.
Don’t be afraid of aging in routines, just be effective!
"Besides, if you don't tell, I don't tell, and your brother doesn't tell, who knows how much this thing costs? People will only sigh for its exquisiteness and preciousness!" When it comes to ways to make money, Shen Tang eyes It was bright and astonishingly bright. After a change of thought, she added, "And this roundworm is also an opportunity to get rich! Let's take a country with a population of one million as an example! Everyone has ascariasis, one for each person. Eat one pill a month Well, how many pills do we need to eat in December a year? Even if we only earn a penny from one pill, how much can we earn in this country in one year? Two countries, three countries, four countries... Oh my God. Breasts are about to grow! "Jimo Qiu is a very kind person. He first gave himself a large sum of ancestral property, and then gave her Artemisia roundworm seeds to make roundworm medicine, and also provided technical support for cultivating diamonds... These are not random things. The boy is rich, he is obviously the God of Wealth! Gong Xiqiu was speechless when he saw this.
“Money is popping out of your eyes.”
Shen Tang waved his hands and said in a sour tone: “How can someone like you, who has never been poor, understand my sadness? I have never had wealth and freedom in my life... Hanzhang owed me a lot of debt again, I...wait, don’t give away your eldest brother’s ancestral property yet!”
Gong Xiqiu raised his eyebrows: “Why?”
Shen Tang said a little shyly: “At this stage, it belongs to me. Assets, ahem, will be enforced.”
Gee, why do you sound like a shameless old man?
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
Shen Tang scratched his head and said bitterly: "...Haha, after all, this is the wealth accumulated by your ancestors. Even if you give it to me, it is mine. , you can do whatever you want, but if you use it to repay the loan owed by Hanzhang, doesn’t it disrespect your elder brother?”
Gong Xiqiu chewed the meaning of this sentence carefully.
Agreed: "That's true."
If big brother knew about it, I'm afraid it would be too broken to stick together.
As soon as he woke up, three windfalls were about to enter his pocket. Shen Tang was in high spirits and beaming, but was there still a little bit of weakness and haggard on his face? She can't wait to discuss with Xun Zhen, the Minister of Household Affairs, to see where these three huge sums of money will be spent.
“Do it well and keep playing with your bugs!” Shen Tang’s lips curled up even harder than AK’s. She patted Gong Xiqiu on the shoulder, walked cheerfully, hummed a tune, and jumped Jumping away, "I'm going to welcome my wealth first!"
Gong Xiqiu almost lost his center of gravity and fell forward.
“Seeing benefits and forgetting friends!”
After this slap, if I didn't stand firm and fell forward, wouldn't it mean that I was smeared in the face by an insect? Disgusting!
“My dear sister, my dear sister, please beg you...”
“...Hehehehe, it’s a deal...”
“… ...When this matter is over, I invite you to go and see..."
Qi Miao pestered Lin Feng to come to the wounded barracks together, saying "good sister" to him, coaxing him until his pretty face turned red. When Gong Xiqiu saw it from afar, he secretly shook his head. This Qi Miao not only looks like Shan Qi back then, but also has the same ability to coax people with sweet words.
Even if the eldest brother can retrieve the Ascaris seeds, Lin Feng still needs to intervene in trial planting, improvement and large-scale planting. Lin Feng was busy, so Qi Miao could only play the relationship card and join her.
Gong Xiqiu looked at the direction they were coming from.
Ask: "Have you seen Mama?"
Lin Feng's eyes flashed with joy: "The Lord is awake?"
Gongxi Qiu Nuzui : "I just left not long ago."
They probably missed each other and didn't touch each other.
The layout of the unfamiliar camp made Shen Tang take many detours. Fortunately, she was still able to find people by following their scent, roughly determined Xun Zhen's direction, and headed straight for her. She suddenly opened the curtain of the temporary tent: "Hanzhang, here's our chance to make a lot of money!"
In the tent, Xun Zhen, who was worrying about money, was shocked.
Immediately left the discussion in the tent and asked the officials: "Seriously?"
He was so happy that he even forgot to ask when Shen Tang woke up.
Xun Zhen has been leading people to check the accounts of Gao Guo's treasury these past few days, which makes her brain explode. The more I calculate, the more I feel that the attack on Gaoguo is a failure! Still losing blood! If it weren't for Wu Xian's special status, he would have gone to Wu Xian to ask clearly!
Many account books were burned in the fire.
There are not even a few officials responsible for this.
What makes matters worse is that most of the main officials responsible for Gao Guo’s finances fled with the new leader of Gao Guo on the day of the fire! That means these people are all dead! Directly dead without any evidence! Many bad debts simply became dead debts!
This piece should have been Kang’s trophy!
The result is gone!
The losses of the Kangguo army since the war began, daily expenses, post-war pensions...everything is money! Not only that, Kang Guo wants to completely control Gaoguo and win over the people, so he has to spend money to help rebuild various parts of Gaoguo, which is also an expense!
The two strokes added together made Xun Zhen's eyes darken.
Seeing that it was time to allocate military pay every quarter, the generals led by Wei Shou, Qian Yong and others secretly inquired about when the Lord would wake up and when rewards would be given based on merit... Xun Zhenyi How can I not be heartbroken when I think about having to allocate money again, but the Ministry of Accounts can only withdraw money?
"...You are still asking me what to do?" Spit it out! The Ministry of Accounts hates not being able to pay the accounts the most, and secondly hates people asking for money. Xun Zhen is now so angry that everyone can vent her anger, and her mental state is very beautiful, "What else can I do? There is such a big hole, you guys let it go What can I do? Do you want me to dress up now and go out on the street to make money by selling my hair?”
In a desperate situation, Shen Tang fell from the sky.
Every word is the sound of nature.
Xun Zhen was so excited that her legs wanted to shake. Her eyes were red with excitement, and she checked with Shen Tang over and over again: "Seriously?"
Shen Tang said: "Uh, seriously."
Xun Zhen wiped away the sweat: "Huh, that's good."
Not to mention other abilities, making money is top-notch.
He knows best how much debt the Lord has been burdened with over the years. The amount was so huge that I once suspected that the Lord would be buried in this lifetime! What is gratifying is that the Lord has a first-class ability to make money and save money. He gritted his teeth and evened out the accounts!
He doubted nothing but Shen Tang's ability to make money.
Xun Zhen’s brain cooled down and she calmed down.
“The Lord said we can make a lot of money, can you tell us how much we can make?”
Shen Tang said: "I'm not very sure either."
She pulled Xun Zhen to the corner and briefly talked about the windfall. The monarch and his ministers murmured together, and Xun Zhen listened attentively, for fear of missing a word. The more he listened, the brighter his eyes became: "How much you can earn from diamonds and tapeworm medicine depends on the output of diamonds and the anthelmintic effect of tapeworm medicine. The benefits are difficult to estimate. However, the savings of the Gongxi clan for hundreds of thousands of years..."
Just hearing "hundreds and thousands of years" can make him drool.
“...This is something you can use as soon as you get it!”
Not only can it settle the debt this time, but it can also enrich the national treasury!
Shen Tang whispered: "But this is not good..."
Xun Zhen was not happy when he heard this: "What's wrong?"
"This is the ancestral property given by others. Spending it is more or less a waste It doesn't look good on my face if I tell you my feelings." Although Shen Tang was also crazy about it, she was thin-skinned. "It's as embarrassing as a man who spends all his wife's dowry!"
Xun Zhen almost heard this. Jumping feet.
“What’s shame? What’s shame?”
The fat that reaches your mouth cannot fly away no matter what you say! Xun Zhen said sternly: "You can't even give away money for the sake of face! There is a popular saying, if a wise man helps me with Qingyunzhi, I will return a virtuous man ten thousand taels of gold! Is the Lord Qingyunzhi not worth this price?"
