Although the light rain in the south is rapid, it does not last long.
After a burst of dense raindrops, only sparse rain stars remained.
The salesman lost half a tael of silver and was anxious to do business. Seeing that he could go on his way, he quickly pushed his cart into the rain and disappeared in a hurry without even saying hello.
The master and servant were also picked up by a carriage. When leaving, the maid glanced at Gao Ning and nodded slightly.
I don’t know if it’s because of the half a tael of silver, or because I respect the monks instinctively.
"Let's go too! Find an inn to stay in first, and then make plans after you settle down!"
Bi Xiaonian took the lead to step into the rain, wearing a moon-white Taoist robe gently floating, occasionally showing a slender silhouette, which was very eye-catching.
Gao Ning and the old Taoist priest Qing Songzi followed behind, letting Bi Xiaonian lead the way.
Although both of them had expressionless faces, their eyes were always moving back and forth between Bi Xiaonian's buttocks and legs.
They glanced at each other inadvertently and quickly moved away from each other, as if nothing had happened.
After repeating this several times, Gao Ning couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to speak: "Um... master, I heard that you are a genuine Taoist priest?"
"I don't want to take it as genuine. I did join the Taoist Association more than ten years ago. I have also stayed in the mountains for seven or eight years and read some messy Taoist scriptures. As for which sect it belongs to, I don't know which sect it belongs to.
Pindao himself estimated that if he went to break the sky, he would just be a wild lonely Zen!" Qingsongzi replied with a smile.
Gao Ning was greatly surprised.
Those who can say such things either really have a trump card, or they really see through the world of mortals and have some luck in cultivating Taoism.
"Which fairy mountain does the master practice in?" Gao Ning continued to ask.
"Fairy mountains? Are you kidding me? There are no fairy mountains in modern society! Really famous mountains and rivers have long been surrounded by people to make money. Those who can practice in them are either sellers or customers. How can a poor person reach it?
.
I just worked in a 3A-level scenic spot on the outskirts of Yunhai City!" Qing Songzi answered naturally.
Gao Ning's eyebrows jumped: "Working?"
Qingsongzi looked at him and nodded in affirmation. "Pindao is responsible for guarding a land tortoise. You can touch the longevity character on it for twenty yuan. He works six hours a day and occasionally buys some amulets and other things. There is nothing else.
It’s quite profitable, and many people are interested in touching turtles!”
Gao Ning was speechless.
"arrive!"
Bi Xiaonian in front suddenly stopped and gave a reminder.
Gao Ning raised his head slightly, and sure enough, there was an inn about ten meters away, with three big characters clearly written on the wooden plaque: Zuixian Pavilion.
"Oh! What a loud tone!" Qing Songzi teased with a smile.
Gao Ning also nodded in his heart.
There are immortals and Buddhas in the White Snake World. To call this name blatantly, it seems that the identity of the boss behind the scenes is not simple.
As soon as the three of them entered the door, the waiter who was cleaning the yard greeted them warmly.
"Hey! Immeasurable Heavenly Master, I've invited some Taoist priests to invite you. I wonder if you are the top or staying in a hotel?"
Bi Xiaonian looked at Gao Ning.
The corner of Gao Ning's mouth twitched and he said: "If I stay in a hotel, can I have a room?"
"Yes, of course there is!"
The waiter in the shop became happy and quickly led the three people in: "Several Taoist priests don't know that among the thirty-three inns in Qiantang, Zuixian Pavilion is the second to none. The upper room is full of decorations, furnishings, and scenery.
It's better to wait. But you also know, Taoist priest, that the saying goes, you get what you pay for, this..."
Gao Ning waved his hand: "Needless to say, how much money do you need for three upper rooms?"
"No more, no more, just three taels of silver. Food and drink expenses are included here. If the Taoist priest has any additional instructions, you can also ask the boys to run errands for you!"
As the waiter spoke, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Three rooms in the A-name room, please invite the distinguished guest upstairs!"
His voice was extremely penetrating, and as soon as he finished speaking, someone from the second floor shouted: "Three rooms in Class A, distinguished guests please come upstairs!"
Not long after, another waiter appeared from above, nodding and bowing, waiting for a few people to go upstairs.
I have traveled through so many worlds and been messing around all the time. This is the first time I have stayed in an inn in a proper manner like this. I didn't expect it to be quite interesting.
The three of them followed the waiter upstairs.
The corridor on the second floor was the center line, and there were many rooms separated on the left and right sides. The waiter led the three of them all the way to the end, and pushed open the three connected rooms. After asking everyone to look at them one by one, he took Gao Ning and gave them to him.
His five taels of silver were withdrawn with a smile on his face.
It was not the time to sleep now, so the three of them stayed in the middle room.
Qingsongzi put his hands behind his back and walked around the room, looking at the antique house furnishings, the drizzle still falling outside the window, and the pedestrians coming out one after another on the cross section, and nodded with satisfaction.
"That's great. This is the life I've always dreamed of!"
Even if you dream, you must have money.
Gao Ning rolled his eyes in his heart.
If I remember correctly, based on the prices in the Northern Song Dynasty, one tael of silver per night was equivalent to two thousand yuan per night in a hotel. It’s no wonder the rooms are not good!
"I'm looking forward to what kind of banquet he will have later. The food in this world should be very delicious!" Gao Ning said.
Qing Songzi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was obviously looking forward to it.
Bi Xiaonian straightened his back, sat at the table with a dignified manner, and said calmly: "Now that we have settled down, we can gradually start planning!"
"What do you think, senior sister?" Gao Ning asked.
Bi Xiaonian looked at Gao Ning indifferently: "In this era, if you want to become famous, there are only two ways. One is to make friends with dignitaries and use their status to raise the master's worth.
The other is to first raise one's own status, and then quietly lead the people of Qiantang to discover.
For example, taking action to save people during natural and man-made disasters.
Or when there is ghosts and cholera, help the people of Ming Dynasty, and then use the mouths of some local ruffians to make the master's reputation known."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Isn't this just hype? Gao Ning couldn't help but widen his eyes.
He couldn't help but look at Qing Songzi, but he didn't know that Qing Songzi was indifferent, as if what Bi Xiaonian was talking about was not him at all, but an insignificant person.
"I prefer the second option!"
No one else needed to answer, Bi Xiaonian gave the answer himself.
"However, implementing the second plan requires many prerequisites. Money is only one aspect, the important thing is identity. Even though we dress up like Taoist priests, we are still undercover in this world.
Before we make certain dazzling achievements, the Taoist priest community in this world will not accept us. But this is not a big deal.
We can use the identity and status of the local squire to get what we need!"
"What do we need?" Gao Ning had just asked, and then his eyes widened as if he suddenly thought of something: "Senior sister, do you want to buy a mountain and suggest building a Taoist temple?"
Bi Xiaoqiang glanced at Gao Ning and said without any fluctuation in his tone: "Why not?"
Gao Ning thought for a while, and then had to admit that this seemed to be a good idea.
"Okay, then our first goal now is to convince a wealthy landlord? Do you have a goal?"
"No!" Bi Xiaonian shook his head: "So you are responsible for finding out. Qiantang belongs to the south of the Yangtze River. Unlike the north, there are many dignitaries and rich people here. The local landowners' network is intricate, and information is generally blocked.
In his current state, it’s not that easy to beat him!”
Gao Ning's eyes widened: "Then you still let me go?"
"You have the ability to blame others, so what are you afraid of?"
Bi Xiaonian said a few words, and Gao Ning immediately shut up.
It makes sense. If you have the skill of dumping the blame, even if there is any trouble, you can throw the blame away at any time.
Although this state will not last long, it is enough for him to escape smoothly.
For dreamers, this is enough.
Bi Xiaonian said calmly: "If you have no direction, I suggest you start with the master and servant pair you met today. Whether it is the dress of the young lady or the fabric of the maid's clothes, it proves that they are wealthy.
Moreover, we know where Li Gongfu lives, and it is probably related to the government. If we can get through this line, things will be much easier in the future!"
"Okay, I understand! Being a maid is not the purpose. The main purpose is to get a wealthy family with a mountain at home or the ability to buy a mountain as soon as possible!"
Gao Ning nodded to express his understanding, and then asked: "What's going on? Is there something strange going on? Or is it an epidemic?"
"Whatever! Let me remind you, Pym particles are a good thing. If used wisely, they can play a great role!"
"Okay, I generally know what to do!" Gao Ning said thoughtfully.
Bi Xiaonian nodded, then looked at Qing Songzi: "In the meantime, the master will show his face more often in the inn and build a relationship with the waiter.
After confirming the target, we will rent a house nearby as soon as possible!"
"This is simple!" Qing Songzi smiled: "Anyway, the old Taoist has been practicing for more than ten years. He has no real skills and cannot live forever. He is not familiar with the miscellaneous Yi Jing Bagua, palmistry and other things. It can be used to deal with ordinary people.
There’s still no problem!”
Good guy, you are such a Taoist about feelings!
Gao Ning felt like he got to know this old guy again.
Bi Xiaonian nodded: "In the meantime, I will get some people out. After all, we will open a Taoist temple in the future. The mountain is deserted and the secular things are complicated. There can't be just the three of us."
"Hmm!" She paused for a moment and then said thoughtfully: "I have a Buddhist initiation method here, and I also practice the Bone Transformation Palm. Together with [Forget Everything], it will be no problem to control some masters and weird Taoist sects.
! Just to prevent someone from recognizing it, maybe give them a different face. Can you use Pym particles to adjust the distance of the facial features? "
Gao Ning was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I haven't tried it, but it doesn't have to be that troublesome. I have a way to help them change their appearance!"
Just throw it into a portable prison and reshape it. How simple.
"In that case, I'll leave it to you!" Bi Xiaonian nodded.
