"You are such a genius! Could it be that you have the legendary ability to read minds?" Shen Gongyang patted the big tree next to him, causing the leaves to fall.
"I can't read minds, but I just like to figure out people's hearts." Tang Wen said.
"Okay, take me to your training tower. If it is as magical as you said, as long as it is half as magical as the dog realm, I will risk it all. I will give you all this wealth." Shen Gong said.
"Haha, your net worth is not necessary." Tang Wen smiled and shook his head.
"You dare to look down on me?" Shen Gong raised his face, raised his eyebrows, and stared at Tang Wen with a cold expression.
"Of course I don't look down on your wealth. If you don't believe me, you can argue with me when you get to the bottom of the country." Tang Wen also raised his eyebrows and sneered.
"Sir, you can't say that." Chu Cong on the side heard this and hurriedly smoothed things over.
"Hurry up, I'm going to the training tower.
Sir Tang, if you cannot satisfy me today, you are looking down on me.
When the time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless." Shen Gongyang looked fierce.
"Do you want to have sex?" Tang Wen raised his eyebrows and looked at him lightly.
"Brother Shen, I think this matter is unnecessary..." Chu Cong was halfway through his speech when Shen Gongyang said arrogantly and rudely, "Chu Cong, you don't need to talk. It's useless for anyone to intercede today."
There is half a floor on the top of the Samui Cultivation Tower, which is dedicated to the practice of Tang Wen's friends and most capable subordinates.
This half-floor space is not large and can only accommodate about ten people practicing at the same time.
However, Tang Wen spent a lot of effort, and the tower walls were inlaid with thousands of high-grade spiritual stones.
This is also the highest-level spirit-gathering array that Tang Wen can currently obtain. The spiritual energy is continuously stacked. Each time it overlaps, one layer is added, and a total of eight layers can be stacked.
Therefore, upon entering the tower, the spiritual energy was superimposed into a very thin layer of mist.
Of course, the spiritual energy is too thin and cannot be seen by ordinary people's naked eyes.
However, Shen Gongyang is a powerful person in Yangyuan Realm Dzogchen. Naturally, as soon as he stepped in, he was as dumb as a fool.
He stared blankly around the tower, standing there like a wire pole for a long time without saying a word.
Chu Cong didn't dare to disturb him, but although he couldn't see the spiritual energy, he could feel the surging spiritual energy coming over him like a tide.
Chu Cong immediately sat down cross-legged and began to breathe. He didn't want to waste it.
"Dog Realm...I never thought there was a second Dog Realm in the world." After a full three hundred breaths, Shen Gongyang came to his senses from his shock and muttered incoherently.
"Is this the same situation in Qinjin's Dog Realm?" Tang Wen asked curiously.
"Almost, almost. It is said that it is the legendary Holy Land of Spiritual Energy.
Because, there is a spiritual vein belt at the bottom of Dog Realm.
You know, with changes in dynasties, wars, etc.
The ancient spiritual veins have been destroyed and exhausted, and the surviving spiritual veins are extremely rare now.
Even if it exists, it is occupied by major sects or some hidden big families.
They are all top-notch forces in my great state. How can we little ants have the chance to enjoy them?
Therefore, the officials in the imperial court are eager to enter the dog realm to practice." Shen Gongyang said.
"Haha, Brother Shen, do you think what I said earlier made me look down on you?" Tang Wen asked with a smile.
"No, but it's still a bit." Shen Gongyang nodded first, then shook his head.
"Brother Shen means that my cultivation tower still cannot meet your requirements, or in other words, it is not worth your money." Tang Wen asked.
"Although my Shen family dare not say that it is the top family in our dynasty, it is still well-known in the capital and can still afford hundreds of millions of taels of silver.
Although your training tower is comparable to a dog realm, one month of training is worth my entire fortune.
Isn't that too arrogant?" Shen Gongyang said.
"What if we add this?" Tang Wen took out a small bottle, as big as his little finger, with a drop of emerald green liquid in it.
"What is this?" Shen Gongyang asked.
"Smell it." Tang Wen opened the bottle, and a light green air rushed out of his nose. Shen Gongyang sniffed and suddenly shouted, "Holy Spirit Water, Holy Spirit Water."
"Holy Spirit Water?" Tang Wen was surprised. This is called Spiritual Essence in the Xuanwu Domain.
It is actually a liquid condensed by spiritual energy. Of course, its quality cannot be compared to even the best spiritual stones.
"Yes! It can only be found in the dragon realm of the royal family. It is said that there is a dragon vein flowing out from the dragon's mouth, but only a dozen drops can be obtained in a year.
Moreover, it can be met but cannot be sought. Back then, the Seventh Prince entered the land of Dragon Veins and got a drop by chance.
After swallowing it, his martial arts improved to the third level. When he was eighteen years old, because of this water, he entered the Juyuan Realm and became an amazing genius in the history of our dynasty.
Alas...it's a pity that it was short-lived, and because of a woman, he fell into ruin.
The decline in martial arts is a great loss for our great Chu Dynasty." Shen Gongyang sighed.
"What kind of woman can make an astonishing genius sink into ruin?" Tang Wen was stunned.
"Luo Shen." Chu Cong said.
"Who is Luo Shen?" Tang Wen asked.
"You don't even know her, how did you get this title?" Shen Gongyang was stunned and glanced at Tang Wen with some contempt.
"There are three major colleges in the capital, Royal Tiansheng College, Wusheng College, and Lingsheng College.
Luo Shen is the most beautiful woman in our Chu Dynasty. Her beauty makes the bright moon in the sky eclipse.
Back then, the Seventh Prince Chu Luoxiang was a romantic and talented man. Talented men love beautiful women. Naturally, he has been pursuing Luo Shen.
Luo Shen was annoyed by him and said, "Whenever you surpass me in martial arts, I will marry you."
Therefore, when Chu Luoxiang entered the Juyuan realm, he challenged Luo Shen. What was the result?" Shen Gongyang said.
"He was beaten." Tang Wen said.
"It's so sad that Chu Luoxiang is no match for her. You have to know that Luoshen is two years younger than Chu Luoxiang." Shen Gong said proudly.
"When the Seventh Prince entered Juyuan at the age of eighteen, Luo Shen was two years younger than him. Wasn't Luo Shen only sixteen years old?" Tang Wen was also surprised. It seemed that he was even more talented than himself.
"Who says it's not?" Shen Gongyang said.
"Brother Shen, what is the realm of Luo Shen?" Chu Cong couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know." Shen Gongyang shook his head.
"Help you enter the Juyuan Realm, Brother Shen, tell me, were my previous words arrogant?" Tang Wen said.
"You're not crazy! This drop of Holy Spirit Water alone is worth 100 million taels." Shen Gongyang nodded.
"I don't want your money, but now I need a piece of land covering an area of 10,000 hectares. However, the land must be located in the capital, and 10,000 slaves are fine." Tang Wen said.
"You want me to exchange these with you for Holy Spirit Water?" Shen Gongyang blinked.
"That's right." Tang Wen responded with certainty.
"Then you will suffer a big loss. You know, a slave only costs about ten taels of silver, even if you include some slaves with powerful martial arts skills.
On average, if a slave is worth three to four hundred taels, that is three to four million taels of silver.
However, the ten thousand hectares of land must be within the scope of the capital. If this scope is locked within the capital, it will definitely not be possible.
After all, most places in the capital have their own things.
It's okay to buy a few dozen hectares, but it's simply impossible to buy 10,000 hectares.
Because the scope is too large. For example, on this 10,000 hectares of land, there happen to be the residences of dignitaries. For example, if a certain Duke or a certain prince asks others to sell it, they have no shortage of money and cannot realize it.
However, if it is decided outside the walls of the capital, then there is a way." Shen Gongyang said.
"How far is it from the capital outside the city wall? It's too far." Tang Wen shook his head.
Because he wanted to acquire a piece of land first to facilitate the development of his business in the capital city in the future.
"Do you want Paoma Mountain?" Shen Gongyang said.
"Although Paoma Mountain is only fifty miles away from the capital wall, that land is a copper mine that belongs to the imperial court. Brother Shen cannot take it away," Chu Cong said.
"Sir, Paoma Mountain covers an area of 10,000 hectares, plus 10,000 slaves. Would you like to change?" Shen Gongyang ignored Chu Cong and asked Tang Wen directly.
"Change!" Tang Wen nodded.
"Then draw up a contract first, say it first, and don't go back on it." Shen Gongyang looked serious.
"Jinyuan, draw up a contract immediately." Tang Wen said. Wen Jinyuan nodded and immediately drew up a contract.
Both parties signed and signed, and Chu Cong was the witness.
However, after signing, Chu Cong still said with a smile on his face, "Brother Shen, Paoma Mountain is an important part of the imperial court and cannot be sold. Brother Shen, you have to think about it carefully. Once you break the contract, you have to pay Lord Tang
Fifty million taels."
"Sir, this is something Shen is not honest about." Shen Gongyang said while holding the spiritual essence.
"You don't want to break the contract, do you?" Tang Wen asked.
"Of course it's impossible. I, Shen Gongyang, am a man after all, and I stand upright.
However, I must first remind Sir Alex that Happy Valley is not what it used to be.
In the past, there were a large amount of copper mines there, and it was an important place for the imperial court. However, this is no longer possible, and the copper mines are almost exhausted.
The land was a wasteland with holes, caves and huge craters everywhere. It was difficult to even it out, let alone reclaim it for growing food.
Therefore, the court sold it, and my uncle was the head of the Paomashan Internal Affairs Office.
So, I bought it last year. I thought I could still mine some copper, but when I dug deeper, I found that the copper content inside was extremely low, and the labor cost was not enough to extract it.
The Shen family spent 80 million taels back then. Later, my uncle was almost scolded to death by his family, and the old man was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
In fact, my uncle had just taken over the business. He was not familiar with the situation and thought he would make a sure profit as before.
Only then did I realize that I had been tricked." Shen Gongyang said with a look of shame on his face.
"The 80 million taels probably include the more than 10,000 handymen who worked in the mine, right?" Tang Wen said.
"Indeed, that land is already a mess. If you continue to mine, you will still lose money.
Therefore, what Shen did in this matter was a bit unethical, and I feel ashamed.
However, Shen wants to get your spiritual essence so much that he can only ignore his conscience." Shen Gongyang nodded.
"Brother Shen, I still treat you as my elder brother, how can you do this? The Lord treats me badly, you are not a human being!" Chu Cong was furious.
"Brother, you can scold me or hit me. Chu Cong, you know this. If I don't find a way to improve my merit, I will be finished." Shen Gongyang said with a look of shame.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. From now on, I will build a manor in Paoma Mountain. It would be nice to have a drink and go horse racing." Tang Wen said with a smile.
I thought in my heart that I would build a satellite city in the future and attract all the dignitaries from the capital to make money.
"I will immediately send someone back by flying eagle to deliver the land deed. As for the more than 10,000 handymen, what do you think we will do with them? If they are still here, you still have to pay them wages, and you have to give them food and clothing." Shen Gongyang
road.
"Are there any good warriors among them?" Tang Wen asked.
