Chapter 5: No Money
boom...
A slight voice suddenly sounded, and Xiao Zhan finally placed the Wen family in his hand on the table, and his eyes shifted from the documents to the young man in front of him, his son Xiao Ran.
"Do you know that you are wrong?" Xiao Zhan looked at his son in front of him and went straight to the topic without saying any nonsense.
"Where did I go wrong?" Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment when he was asked this question.
"The servant came back this afternoon and said you made a big fuss in Zuixian Tower, right?" Xiao Zhan said calmly, with no hint of joy or anger in his voice.
"That's what I did!" Xiao Ran frowned slightly, then nodded.
"You traitor, haven't you embarrassed yourself enough during this period? Are you here to humiliate our Xiao family in front of so many people today?" Xiao Zhan pointed at Xiao Ran's nose and said, his face full of black lines.
, it seems that he is very angry.
Xiao Ran's mouth moved, but in the end nothing came out. What could Xiao Ran say? Could it be that Xiao Ran said that Zuixianlou was an undercover agent planted by the Wang family? Let's not say whether Xiao Zhan would believe it or not.
With his attitude, Xiao Zhan would definitely not believe him.
Seeing Xiao Ran's silence, Xiao Zhan became even more angry. The anger that had been accumulated for so many years completely burst out at this moment: "Starting from tomorrow, your monthly living expenses will be reduced to twenty gold coins. Die."
My son won’t be with you to take care of you anymore, so that you don’t have to pretend to be a coward outside.”
After saying this, Xiao Zhan stared straight at Xiao Ran in front of him, wanting to see how Xiao Ran would react, but unfortunately he didn't see any reaction. Xiao Ran just stood there calmly, but Xiao Ran
He knew that Xiao Zhan was doing this for his own good, otherwise he would have contradicted him long ago based on his character in his previous life.
"You have no objection?" After a moment of silence, Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Ran and said.
"No!" Xiao Ran nodded silently.
Seeing Xiao Ran nodding, Xiao Zhan couldn't sit still. Is this still the same traitor as before? When did he become so easy to talk to? You must know that Xiao Ran's monthly expenses were about fifty gold coins before. Now it is reduced.
After reaching ten pieces, there are no complaints?
However, Xiao Zhan was indeed completely disappointed with his youngest son from the bottom of his heart. He waved his hands slightly and said, "You go back first, don't cause me any more trouble!" After that, he went back to his original position and quietly took it.
Pick up a document and read it.
After walking out of the study, Xiao Ran's face did not show the slightest dissatisfaction at being scolded. After a slight hesitation, Xiao Ran turned around and walked back to where his room was.
"Oh..., dad is doing it for you too!" After Xiao Ran left, Xiao Zhan looked old and worried, and after a long while he sighed quietly before continuing to look at the documents in his hand.
After staying at home for another two days, Xiao Ran's injuries have completely improved. He was originally only a third-level martial artist, but now he has broken through to the fourth-level martial artist. Of course, others will not know this.
After his cultivation level broke through to the fourth level of martial arts, Xiao Ran used the secret method he learned in his previous life to cover up his cultivation level and continued to pretend to be a third level martial arts disciple. Yes, Xiao Ran was planning to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.
Although this pig is still a bit weak now.
During these two days, Die'er stopped following Xiao Ran, but she brought food to Xiao Ran on time every day.
In the room, Xiao Ran, who was having lunch, quietly drank a cup of tea, then sat there quietly in a daze.
"Yes!" Xiao Ran suddenly said: "Can't you make money in the Swordsmen's Guild? Why did I forget?" In his previous life, Xiao Ran took on tasks and made money in the Swordsmen's Guild. In this life, Xiao Ran forgot about it.
The Swordsmen's Guild, the full name of the Swordsmen's Union, is the largest union on the Wolong Continent. It coexists with the imperial family, but is in a neutral state. There are swordsmen's unions in larger cities across the country.
The presence.
As for Tianwu City, where Xiao Ran is located, there is a branch of the Swordsmen Guild in Tianwu City because it is not far from here in the Forest of Mist.
If we really want to count, the Swordsmen's Guild is actually the number one force in Tianwu City, because the president of the Swordsmen's Guild is a real peak master of the Sword King. However, in this Tianwu City,
He hides his identity and pretends to be a mid-stage Sword King.
However, in Tianwu City, the appeal of the Swordsmen's Guild is absolutely unparalleled. Not to mention the thousands of people entering and exiting the Swordsmen's Guild every day. A small family can be destroyed by just issuing a task.
Of course, this kind of existence naturally has certain restrictions, so on the surface, as long as the Swordsmen Guild does not act randomly, then the Xiao family, the city owner, will be the largest force in the entire Tianwu City.
Quietly recalling the memories of the previous life, the corners of Xiao Ran's mouth slowly turned up. Xiao Ran already had the source of the gold coins. This can't be blamed on Xiao Ran's too active mind.
In fact, it is too difficult to train as a warrior. The stage from swordsman to great swordsman is too difficult. This stage is to lay a good foundation for one's body and is also an important stage to improve the body's constitution, so practice is the slowest.
If you don’t want to waste time practicing slowly, then there is another way, which is drug treatment. However, if you want to practice quickly at this stage, you must consume a lot of drugs. The prices of these drugs are not cheap, at least they are not suitable for them.
For the current Xiao family, it is impossible.
As for Xiao Ran's current cultivation level, if he wants to improve quickly, it is impossible to meet Xiao Ran's needs without tens of thousands of gold coins. However, the entire city lord's palace only has more than 100,000 gold coins, and tens of thousands of them are given to Xiao Ran at a time.
Is it possible for "waste" to practice cultivation?
Obviously it's impossible.
So Xiao Ran could only rely on himself.
Having made up his mind, Xiao Ran immediately stood up and walked out of the room.
The Swordsmen's Guild was also located on the west side of Tianwu City, but it was still some distance away from the city lord's palace. Xiao Ran quickly came to a magnificent building with familiarity.
This is a three-story attic. The roof is like a pavilion, and the sides are slightly lower. However, the area of this building is really not small.
If the City Lord's Mansion is very grand, then the Swordsmen's Guild is even more terrifying. It covers an area that is more than double that of the City Lord's Mansion. On top of a heavy door, there are four dragons and phoenixes of the Swordsmen's Guild.
Large gold-inlaid characters hang quietly on it.
After taking one look at Xiao Ran, he turned away and walked towards the gate of the Swordsmen's Guild. There was no one guarding the outside of the Swordsmen's Guild. This was his absolute confidence in himself.
After passing through a section of road paved with bluestones, a huge hall slowly appeared in Xiao Ran's eyes.
The door outside the hall is two meters wide and three meters high. The purple-red door looks particularly bright in the sun. The crowds coming and going make the swordsmen's guild look particularly lively.
Stepping in, noisy sounds suddenly reached Xiao Ran's ears. His brows furrowed slightly, and Xiao Ran began to look at the swordsmen's guild.
This hall is five to six hundred square meters, and such a huge hall is only supported by sixteen huge pillars. On one side of the hall, dozens of tables and chairs are placed there, about four or five
Ten people were sitting there discussing something loudly.
In the center of the hall, a huge blackboard displays various tasks, such as going to the Mist Forest to find a second-level Warcraft, or requiring a Warcraft crystal core, followed by a price tag, etc.
Xiao Ran just glanced at these and stopped paying attention. Xiao Ran's purpose was not these. After identifying the direction, Xiao Ran slowly walked into the hall.
Along the way, a large number of great swordsmen were constantly passing through. Among these people, the one with the lowest level of cultivation was the swordsman, while the one with the highest level was the great swordsman. However, it was obvious that none of these people could attract Xiao Ran's interest.
After walking inside for a moment, Xiao Ran suddenly stopped. In front of Xiao Ran, there was a place covered by black cloth. Outside, there were a few people coming in and out, and this was Xiao Ran.
The destination, the place in the Swordsmen's Guild where a series of questions such as training are answered.
After opening the curtain and walking in, a huge wooden counter suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Ran. The entire counter was ten meters long. At this moment, there were only two middle-aged men in front of the counter looking at something seriously.
On the counter, hundreds of small glass bottles are quietly placed. Inside these glass bottles, there may be one note, or two or three notes, but most of them only have one note inside. Obviously, they all have
It has never been answered.
With a smile on his lips, Xiao Ran immediately stepped in and came to a transparent glass bottle at the front of the counter. Xiao Ran took a faint look at it.
There is a piece of paper taped to the side of the glass bottle.
"Three gold coins!" Xiao Ran glanced at it and murmured to himself. Three gold coins are the reward for those who answer questions.
After seeing that there was only a note in the bottle, Xiao Ran took it out casually.
"How can a warrior increase the strength of his body after cultivating to the realm of a great martial artist?" A simple sentence was written on it. Xiao Ran felt a little want to laugh when he read it. Are the people in Tianwu City so unbearable? Even a great warrior
No one can answer the question about martial arts training? It even requires three gold coins? But Xiao Ran doesn't want to think about it. In his last life, he was a sword god and was at the peak of his innate state. How could these questions be answered by him?
It was funny, but Xiao Ran immediately picked up a pen and a piece of paper from the side and started writing eloquently. Finally, he signed his name Xiao and then. Xiao Ran walked towards the next target with a smile on his lips, and
In the first bottle, there was already an extra note.
Signing his name again, Xiao Ran slowly put the note in his hand into a bottle in front of him, then turned around and opened the curtain and walked out. Next to Xiao Ran, two middle-aged men who were talking about something were now
But he looked at Xiao Ran's leaving back with strange eyes.
"Is this person a monster? In just half an hour, he has answered all the questions that have been accumulated for several years? Or is this boy just writing randomly?" The middle-aged man next to him wearing a high-end outfit looked at Xiao Ran.
The back view is incredible.
"Hmph, can you answer these questions?" Another middle-aged man next to him said, looking at the person who spoke before.
"Of course not!" the middle-aged man said without thinking.
Chapter completed!
