It was rare that his master had something to explain, and Xiao Yan was happy to do so.
It was rare for his master to ask him to do anything.
This has never happened in the past. Xiao Yan was quite excited about this and said to himself: "I don't know what Master wants me to do, but this is the first time. No matter what it is, I must do it well."
I was thinking like this.
But what Jiang Chi said next made Xiao Yan's young face twitch.
What is this asking him to do?
It was obvious that he was being treated like a cow.
He felt that way anyway.
Jiang Que said: "Xiao Yan, I'm a bit tight on money as a teacher recently, but I still have some things I want to do, so..."
He paused and stopped deliberately.
Xiao Yan's face twitched and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Master, you probably want to borrow money from me, cough cough.
But I don’t have much money, and money is tight.”
Although he is the third son of Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, and although he bears the title of the third young master of the Xiao family, the resources he has access to are few, both before and now.
As for gold coins, they are even rarer.
Just because the Xiao family is not a wealthy family.
So Xiao Yan was also poor.
He also felt quite embarrassed for a while.
The master asked me to borrow money, but I didn't have it. This was tantamount to a direct and clear rejection of the master's kindness.
But my master was as kind as a mountain to me.
So Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and said: "Master, Yao Lao used to be an alchemist. How about my disciples learn his alchemy skills and then refine elixirs to sell?"
Make money with this.
Maybe you can even support your family.
Jiang Que twitched the corner of his mouth and said angrily: "You can learn it, but the alchemy skills in our immortal way are not bad. You can also think about it, but alchemy is too time-consuming, and your main time needs to be spent on cultivation.
superior."
He shook his head and rejected Xiao Yan's idea.
I feel that Xiao Yan's idea is not the most appropriate.
"Then...then I'll ask my father and Xun'er to borrow some." Xiao Yan immediately said with a bitter smile.
If you can't spend your time making money, you have to borrow money.
Based on Xiao Yan's reputation, he could only borrow some money from Xiao Zhan and Xiao Xun'er, and probably no one else would be willing to lend him money.
After all, his reputation as a loser is well known.
I'm afraid I won't get it back if I borrow it.
After all, there are a lot of bad debts in this world.
"Forget it, although you can borrow money, they must not have much money." Jiang Chi shook his head and said, "But I have an idea, I wonder if you are willing to do it?"
"Master, what's your idea?" Xiao Yan was overjoyed and thought to himself, "Is it possible that Master still has a way to make money?"
This is okay.
Master didn't want to show his face, so he just did it for him.
When the time comes, Xiao Yan will be able to gain some points from him no matter what, and over time he will become a little rich man. It is exciting to think about it.
"Didn't you recently learn the magic of turning stone into gold?"
Jiang Que said with a smile: "There is not much else in the back mountain of the Xiao family, but there are many stones. Can you turn all these stones into gold and then ask your servants to make them into gold coins?"
There are still one or two reliable servants.
As for why he wanted to turn stone into gold, Jiang Qian thought it was to test Xiao Yan's magic skills and for his own good.
Um.
That's definitely his idea.
It's not like I'm trying to get a bargain.
However, Xiao Yan felt that this master was just taking advantage, and he said with a depressed look: "Master, there are a lot of rocks in the back mountain, but there are too many rocks all over the mountains and plains.
I just learned the art of turning stone into gold. I don’t know how long it will take before I can finish it. You are clearly using me as a coolie."
"Congratulations on your correct answer, but it's a pity that there is no reward." Jiang Que said: "You have endured hardships, and you have become a master. As long as you learn the art of turning stone into gold, won't you be allowed to walk sideways in the world from now on?"
Xiao Yan: "..."
The truth seems to be this.
But he just felt that it wasn't that simple.
After all, with his master's personality, he can definitely do this kind of thing by himself.
"Why do you have to do it yourself?" Xiao Yan now regretted learning the magic of turning stone into gold.
inside the ring.
Turn stones into gold and then make gold coins?
"This method is good. It's fast enough. It's more profitable than refining elixirs. After all, refining elixirs also requires raw materials, and the raw materials for turning stone into gold are just stones."
Yao Lao thought secretly in his heart, and there were stones all over the mountains and plains.
If I could learn this kind of magic, I probably wouldn't have learned the alchemist profession back then.
In Dou Qi Continent, if you want to survive for a long time, a stable and high-income profession is very important.
That is the decision that determines how far you can go.
For a while.
Yao Lao was a little envious of Xiao Yan, "This kid has a lot of good fortune, but I'm not bad either. As long as I hold Daoist Jiang's thigh tightly from now on and follow his footsteps, I can learn from him too."
Got a lot of spells."
He finally understood.
In the path of cultivating immortals, the mastery of so many techniques is mind-numbing. No wonder Xiao Yan, at such a young age, was able to fly with a sword and turn stones into gold at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
His various spells are indeed sufficient.
That's why the current situation is caused.
very nice.
Even Yao Lao was envious.
outside world.
Xiao Yan was very depressed. Looking at the back of Jiang Que leaving gracefully, he couldn't laugh or cry. "Master went to play, but I still have to go to the back mountain to turn stones into gold and make gold coins."
This is a lot of work.
A large stone can be used to make many gold coins.
But it is not easy for him to turn a stone into gold. After all, it is an essential change, not an illusion.
This is literally turned to gold.
To put it bluntly, it’s just that the yin and yang of the five elements complement each other and restrain each other.
But the magic power in Xiao Yan's body was not much to begin with, and now it became even more embarrassing after using it for a while.
True energy is magic power.
Once the magic power is not enough, turning stone into gold becomes an illusion.
In fact.
Is Jiang Qian really short of that few gold coins?
not bad.
Just throwing something out can get you a lot of gold coins.
Not to mention that his Qiankun Bag and Diamond Bracelet already contain a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, so Jiang Chian is not short of money.
The reason why Xiao Yan is asked to do the work of turning stone into gold is to train him.
"After the auction in Wutan City is over, I will collect the fighting qi skills and fighting skills of the other two families in Wutan City. I should be able to leave here and go to the Warcraft Mountains."
Jiang Chi returned to the courtyard and thought secretly.
The magic power in Xiao Yan's body was weak and not enough to conquer the Warcraft Mountains, so he used the method of turning stone into gold to improve it.
Every time you use up your mana and energy, your mana and energy will increase exponentially the next time you practice.
This is one of the characteristics of his ninth-grade Taoism.
"Xiao Yan, I hope you won't let down all my hard work." Jiang Que murmured to himself. He hoped that Xiao Yan could become one of his helpers in the future.
After all, the future Emperor Yan has great potential.
He had this idea when he cut off Hu from Yao Lao.
Xiao family.
Behind the mountain.
There are not only cliffs here, but also some rocky mountains.
Xiao Yan came here with Xiao Xun'er and a few trusted Xiao family members, and said to them: "You can make gold coins on the spot in a while. I think it's not hard to come by."
Everyone: "..."
Several servants of the Xiao family were extremely bitter.
I don’t know how to reply to this famous third young master.
Seeing this, Xiao Xun'er frowned and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, there is no gold mine here, what kind of gold coins do you want them to make?
Besides, making gold coins requires smelting gold ore and removing impurities, so the process is much more complicated."
One sentence.
Making gold coins is not that simple and easy.
Xiao Yan nodded and said: "Xun'er, of course I know what you are talking about, but I have a way to bypass other processes and go directly to the last one."
Xiao Xun'er: "Brother Xiao Yan, are you okay?"
"..."
Seeing Xiao Xun'er looking concerned about the patient, Xiao Yan could not help but twitch his face slightly and said: "I'm fine, Xun'er, you don't have to worry.
Next, I will let you experience a miracle. That is the real miracle. The turning of stone into gold means turning the impossible into the possible.
And your task is to make the gold I turned into gold coins. After all, gold coins are the liquid currency in Dou Qi Continent."
All the Xiao family servants: "Yes!"
Although they responded respectfully, they were actually still skeptical about Xiao Yan's statement.
Turning stone into gold?
They think it's impossible.
If it were possible, it wouldn't remain a legend forever, and those big forces wouldn't compete for various mineral veins every day.
But when they saw the confident look of their third young master, they became a little suspicious.
"Could it be that the Third Young Master really knows how to turn stone into gold?"
"Maybe I learned it from Elder Jiang. It is said that Elder Jiang and the third young master stole the show in our meeting hall a few days ago."
Very domineering.
This is the impression Elder Jiang left on everyone.
And Xiao Yan also followed the rising tide.
But the idea of turning stone into gold is only in legends. In reality, no one knows about it, and no one has ever seen it.
"Maybe the third young master wants us to see what he's pretending to be."
Some servants of the Xiao family murmured secretly.
I think Xiao Yan is lying.
Xiao Yan saw that everyone didn't trust him, so that's okay.
The key person who he doesn't trust is Xiao Xun'er, the person he cares about very much.
So he quickly said: "Xun'er, you all stand far away and watch for a while. I will let you know that the magic of turning stone into gold does not only exist in legends."
He saw a fist-sized stone in front of him.
He continued: "This is a stone, right? It's also a hard stone, so the effect should be very good."
After saying that, he gave the stone to Xiao Xun'er and the others to check.
Then when the stone returned to Xiao Yan's hands, everyone's expectant eyes fell directly on Xiao Yan.
They all said in their hearts: "This time we will see how you turn stone into gold openly."
Won't blink.
Xiao Yan was extremely calm in his heart, and said to himself: "You all are waiting to be frightened in a while, maybe it will surprise you."
After all, when he first learned this spell, he was shocked that there was such a spell in the world.
It's just...it just consumes too much mana and energy.
It would be nice if it didn't need to consume so much.
But none of this matters.
The important thing is that he can show off in front of Xiao Xun'er and gain a sense of admiration.
He enjoyed that feeling very much.
then.
Xiao Yan circulated the magic power in his body, chanted secretly in his mouth, and then when the time came, he shouted, "Change!"
The art of turning stone into gold.
The fundamental lies in changing the nature of the stone.
It's actually a bit difficult.
However, Xiao Yan had already tried it before and it was successful, so he was not worried at all that his spell would fail.
After all, this is immortal magic.
"Buzz!"
Immediately afterwards.
After the sound, a golden light suddenly disappeared, as if it didn't exist.
Xiao Xun'er and other servants of the Xiao family were dumbfounded.
