Chapter 182: Debt
On the carriage, Su Jian smiled and said to Su Mu: "Did you see it? If I weren't Jindan or the people from the Su family, would they have to be stolen?"
"When you lent them money, you didn't say that you were from the Su family?" Su Mu was surprised.
"If I say it, they may not dare to borrow it from me."
"Aren't you lie?" Su Jing understood what happened. Su Jian actually lent money to the Ma family as a casual cultivator. He agreed to come to collect money.
"Ha, I still asked Su He to do this, but the words on the loan note were signed by me."
"This, they don't know your name?" Su Jing was surprised. Su Jian also had a flaw in the three northern states. At least for the Ma family, it was an existence that could not be provoked. Seeing Su Jian's name, they still didn't realize it, so they deserved to be unlucky, right?
"Oh, sister, I signed Su Moqian, but I didn't reveal my name." Su Jian smiled proudly. Her surname was Su, her name was Jian, and her name was Moqian. When you are away, everyone only knows her name, but not her name. In the Eastern Qin Empire, it is okay to sign any document and use your own characters. It is legal and cannot be questioned.
"I guess you must have changed your clothes at that time and looked like nouveau riche."
"That's right, no one believed that I was from the Su family at that time. It was really embarrassing to say that. It took a month to do it for such a little thing. You said, how could my sister compare with you? The emperor's rewards are just a bunch. I don't know how many gifts I can receive when I get married."
Su Jing glanced at Su Mu, but Su Mu had no reaction. It was useless to be angry about this, she was instigated.
Su He opened the car door, walked out, stood on the steps in front of the door, and glanced at the man in silver armor in front of him. His face was white and red, his eyebrows were on his temples, his arms and bees were on his waist, and he rode a snow-white war horse. There was also a bunch of black short hair on the forehead of the war horse, forming a rune.
This war horse is a mixed-blood monster, and its level is not low. It is not covered with armor and can be used as a heavy rider.
"You either get closer and talk, or make way out and let us enter the Ma family. Do you want to rob the man with such a long gun? "Su He said to the silver-armored man in a reprimanding tone.
The man was stunned for a moment. The other party was unwilling to indicate his identity. He either tried to be unfavorable to the Ma family or did not take him seriously at all.
He hesitated a little in his heart, dragged his spear back, carried his horse forward, and came to Su Jian's car, which was only three meters away from Su River, and then stopped.
Su He clapped his hands and smiled, "What a courage, that's right. I'm here today to collect debts. This is an IOU, look at it."
Su He said, throwing an IOU out of thin air. The man in silver armor reached out to catch it, and just took a look, his face turned a little blue.
In order to refine a Taoist longbow, he also heard about borrowing loans from casual cultivators. However, no matter how the other party looked, he was not a casual cultivator. At this time, he saw a very light symbol on the front of Su Jian's carriage and next to the door, and his face turned from blue to black.
I originally wanted to retell the IOU and deny it, but I saw that the symbol was clearly from the Su family in Yizhou. This time, the IOU was as heavy as Mount Tai in his hands.
The debts of the casual cultivator can be delayed or deducted, but he can't even think about the debts of the Su family. This seemingly ordinary carriage seems to belong to one person. The man in silver armor finally thought of Su Jian from the carriage, and for a moment he felt a little weak.
"Please... follow me to the city." The man in silver armor returned the loan note to Su He, shortened his spear and hung it next to the saddle. Then he took off his helmet to show his friendship. At the same time, he took out a collar flag and shook it at the top of the city. Most of the heavy crossbow on the top of the city was retracted, and the rest were raised upwards and no longer facing the city.
Su He stood in front of the car and did not return to the car. Under the leadership of the silver-armored man, more than 500 people followed him into the Ma Family. Su Jing was used to the days when he was waiting for him in Xiaoyao Marquis' Mansion and had people to serve him when he had dinner and bathing. Now, he felt that he should get used to being respected and could also exert pressure on strangers.
This is determined by his identity. If he still wants to get close to the Ma family and convince the Ma family to give him enough people to act as archers as an ordinary person, the best result is to be kicked out of the Ma family.
Su Jian was teaching Su Jing some things that could not be learned in books, and even if it was found in books, Su Jing would find it difficult to do it. He was essentially a scientific researcher, not a nobleman.
Su Jing also understood that this was what Su Jian did for Su He. In the future, Su He may not be able to suppress everything. It would be different if he had his own help.
When Su Jian returned to Qingming Mansion, there were people in the Su family who were jealous of this brother's position. He wanted Su Mu to become an elder, and Su Jian wanted his brothers to obtain his support, which was normal.
The Ma Family Ji is just a city of one kilometer in size, and it was built by the Ma Family itself, so the city wall is single, without a moat, no formation, and no official office. The Ma Family's status can only establish this city, but the Ma Family dare not concentrate all its wealth here. This is the sorrow of the small family, for fear of being robbed.
When they learned that the Su family had arrived, the Ma family was a little panicked. The Su family had more than 500 people, and the Ma family didn't know how to arrange it. They could only take it to the largest house to clear the house, and the vehicles and horses could only park on the main road. In winter, most of the snow in the house had not been cleaned yet, and the Su family's disciples were invited into the living room and set up a stove.
The personal guards and the servants had no place to arrange it. Fortunately, Su Jian didn't ask for entertainment. As long as he saw the head of the Ma family, the Su family was too powerful, and it was impossible for the Ma family to burn both jade and stone, and there was no other way to threaten the Su family. All strategies were based on strength.
After hearing about the loan notes and thinking about Su Jian's identity, the head of the Ma family suddenly turned gray. The other party clearly wanted to cheat him, but what would he think about it?
The refining of the things failed, and the accompanying miscellaneous instrument was gone. Do you have to return the loan? The Ma family will have to plan at least a few years to get it together, and they will also tighten their belts and do their best.
The problem is that Su Jian has come to collect debts, and the loan note clearly states the return date. No one would have thought that the longbow would fail to be refined. During the six foundation-building periods, a Hunyuan furnace was controlled, and there were jade and elixirs that had accumulated for many years, but it failed.
All the materials are fine, the only problem is where the Hunyuan furnace may appear.
With a tough needle, the head of the Ma family came to the living room of the house to pay homage to Su Jian.
He walked into the living room with his confidant disciples and saw a beautiful girl sitting upright on a huge chair on the front. The girl was wearing snow-white fur, with her arms on the armrests, and her fists were holding her chin, looking bored. There were only two chairs next to the girl, and a man and a woman were sitting upright, looking younger than this girl.
The head of the Ma family's family's heart was pounding. This girl must be Su Jian. How old has she been to advance to the Golden Pill?
You should know that after you advance to the Golden Pill, your appearance will be fixed and you will no longer age. Generally speaking, the appearance of a powerful Golden Pill is what he looked like when he advanced to the Golden Pill.
He reluctantly moved forward, hesitated for a moment, saluted Su Jian. Su Jian raised his chin from his hand, leaned on the back of the chair, yawned, and said, "Give him a chair, sit and talk."
"Yes." The disciple of the Su family walked out, pulled a chair in the corner, and placed it in front of Su Jian.
The head of the Ma family thanked Su Jian and sat down, as if this was not his territory.
"Your name is Ma Yuanrong?" Su Jian asked.
“That’s right.”
"At the age of fifty-nine, in the late stage of foundation building, it is also a rare talent in the small family." Su Jian praised. She was right. Usually, Qi Refiners in small families who can build foundations at a hundred years old are regarded as core strength.
"In Tokyo Prefecture, the jade and materials I lend you. If you have refined the weapons you want now, take them out and show them to me to open your eyes. Money and other things are easy to say. But if you fail to refine, what should I do?"
When Su Jian looked at the other party's expression, he knew that the weapon had not been refined at all and could say a few beautiful words.
Ma Yuanrong was embarrassed, he couldn't say it, so let it go. If he said he would return it after a while, Su Jian had already put forward the prerequisite, which was to show her the refined things.
This time, he blocked his mouth.
Su Jing regarded this as an opportunity to learn, but he couldn't learn Su Jian's words. Su Jing looked around and saw that the construction of this living room was incomparable to the Hou Mansion, and there was no trace of Taoist arts involved in the construction. A incense burner in Su Jing's room was made by Qi Refiners in the Foundation Establishment Stage. In this hall, there was not even a decent magic weapon level thing.
The Ma family is not poor, and just saw the hard crossbows on the top of the city. The archers and cavalry equipment were also quite good in the army. Those were also very expensive. However, the Ma family had no background and only strength, and they would not be placed on luxury goods.
Ma Yuanrong said with a bitter face: "I listen to everything from real people."
Su Jian's eyebrows stood up and said angrily: "What do you mean? Am I here here to seize your family business? Do you think I will look down on your dilapidated place? Ma Yuanrong, are you sarcastic about me!"
Ma Yuanrong almost didn't fall off the chair, thinking, you clearly have this idea.
"Tell me, what kind of Taoist weapon you originally planned to refine, what process did it fail, and how it failed." Su Jian slowed down and did not put pressure again.
Ma Yuanrong hesitated, but seeing that Su Jian's eyebrows had not been completely flat, he knew that it was a knife to shrink his head, so he would be more excited than to feel refreshed. With a light cough, Ma Yuanrong said: "What I want to refine is the Sky Bow. The medium-grade Taoist weapon, combined with the Cloud Piercing Arrow, also poses a huge threat to Qi Refiners in the Golden Elixir realm."
