In the afternoon, Xie Jiuniang accompanied her parents to complete the settlement procedures and received two tokens for entering and leaving the market.
Seeing that it was almost evening, Xie Jiuniang decided not to return to the sect and stayed in her new home to accompany her parents for one night and help them sort out some things.
The local specialties bought along the way, plus the things eaten by the thieves, plus the harvest from the three storage bags.
The three of them didn't think there was anything wrong until they counted...
Get rich quickly!
The whole family became rich overnight!
Xie Shen said with emotion: "No wonder some elders in the clan like to go out for training when they have nothing to do."
"Don't mislead my daughter. The elders are really going there to gain experience." Moran rolled her eyes at her husband.
Xie Shen chuckled and said nothing.
Everything is self-explanatory, and those who should understand will understand. If everyone does not go out to gain experience, how can they make breakthroughs relying only on the resources provided by the family
Xie Jiuniang didn't dare to mention the spirit stones. It would be difficult to explain the loss of hundreds of thousands of them. Fortunately, her parents didn't ask.
If the materials can be used, they will be kept. If they are not needed, they will be sold in the shop and the Ganoderma lucidum will be sent back to the family.
This proposal was made by Xie Shen. It would not be given away for free. It was equivalent to selling it to the family.
The value will be similar to that on the market, so it is impossible to sell it at a high price. It happened that the elders who sent the Xie family children here had not left yet, so Xie Shen decided to go to Xi'an City tomorrow morning.
Building Lingzhi is very important to the family.
Xie Jiuniang had no objection to this.
She knew that family meant something different to her father.
She didn't want to embarrass her father because of her personal grudge. Her grandfather didn't treat her well, but he was very good to her father. Besides, it was just a little thing, it didn't matter, as long as her father was happy.
"Hey, what is this?"
Moran opened a box filled with IOUs.
Upon hearing this, Xie Jiuniang took one look, then another, opened her mouth wide, and quickly explained, "Mom and Dad, those people didn't have any spirit stones, but they wanted to buy my things, so they wrote me an IOU first. I didn't ask them to write it, they just insisted..."
"My daughter is very capable." Moran said sarcastically.
Xie Jiuniang wiped away the non-existent cold sweat.
Xie Shen flipped through a large stack of IOUs.
The two heard rumors in Xi'an City that a young girl named Xie was doing business during the assessment period and sold a soul-nourishing wooden hairpin to the genius alchemist Mo Chuan at a low price.
There were three storage bags and a box of IOUs. From these, it was clear that the girl was doing quite a bit of business.
Xie Shen's eyes twitched, "Girl, you didn't spend the whole month doing business and didn't take the assessment seriously, did you?"
"No." Xie Jiuniang stole a glance at her mother, "I only did it for twenty days. Later, I was surrounded by fake sect disciples, so I went to the mountain gate a few days earlier."
"Hahaha! Well done, you're worthy of being my daughter." Xie Shen patted Xie Jiuniang's little shoulder, his eyes and eyebrows full of smiles.
Xie Jiuniang puffed out her chest and raised her chin proudly, but as a result, she received a big slap on the back of her head from her mother.
Moran said unhappily, "This won't happen again."
The sect assessment was such a serious matter, and if my daughter used it to make a fortune, what would the sect elders who were conducting the assessment think? If they had a bad impression of my daughter, it would be troublesome.
Moran reminded again: "Don't let wealth blind you. Keep a low profile in the sect and work hard to improve your strength."
"Yes, my daughter will remember mother's teachings."
Xie Jiuniang adjusted her attitude. Originally, this matter was nothing, but Mo Chuan's interference disrupted her original plan. Next, it might not only be the Lin and Mo families, but it might also attract the attention of other people, so she had to think carefully again.
In the second half of the night, Xie Jiuniang occupied the underground fire room and refined a set of wrist guards using animal skins.
It is slightly different from the wrist guards on the market in that it protects the back of the hand as well, just enough to cover the contract pattern on the back of the hand.
As early as when she was in Xi'an City, Xie Jiuniang wanted to refine a set, but as the entrance examination was approaching, she did not find the opportunity.
Xie Jiuniang tore off the cloth strip on her right hand and put on the wrist guard.
After recognizing its owner, the bowl guard is very soft and light, and it feels like nothing when worn on the hand.
"It looks good and is much more pleasing to the eye." It is an eyesore to always have it wrapped in cloth strips. It feels like it is bandaged after an injury and is unlucky.
It was getting bright outside.
Moran prepared a bunch of food early in the morning, ready for his daughter to take back to the sect.
Xie Jiuniang grabbed a bun, took a bite, and then asked, "Mom, where's Dad?"
Moran replied: "I left for Xi'an City early."
"I have to go back to the sect, mother. I will come out to see you when I have time." Xie Jiuniang was a little reluctant, but unfortunately she had too many things to do and could not waste time here.
After collecting the food that Moran had packed and saying goodbye, Xie Jiuniang hurried away.
Before leaving, Xie Jiuniang went to the shop and bought two hundred sheets of the most expensive talisman paper on the market, spending two thousand spirit stones with a painful heart.
In the past, the talisman paper she used was one spirit stone for one stack; today, it was one spirit stone for one stack of paper.
If she had not suspected that the repeated failures in drawing the hiding talisman might be related to the quality of the talisman paper, she would definitely not have spent the money in vain.
Didn’t you see the shop assistant’s eyes light up when you made the purchase
That's the look you would have when you see the God of Wealth or a spendthrift!
Not long after Xie Jiuniang left, someone came to inquire about her. When they learned that she had only bought talisman paper, they left in a hurry.
Xie Jiuniang didn't know about this, and she wouldn't be surprised even if she knew. When she chose to enter Tianxu Sect again, she was mentally prepared to be followed at any time.
A man walked out of the market.
Without the crane to provide transportation on the return trip, Xie Jiuniang could only travel on foot. Fortunately, the distance of more than ten miles was not far.
Passing by a forest, they heard sounds of fighting ahead, followed by the young man pretending to be calm and shouting, "In broad daylight, in the open, how dare you rob me?"
"I'm beating you and robbing you! If you don't hand over the valuables, I'll kill you!" A hoarse male voice came.
Then there were a few more sounds of fighting, and then the boy's cry for help.
The cry was so miserable and moving.
However, Xie Jiuniang walked away without looking around.
Idiot! The fight was so fake.
The young man shouted "Help" with amazing humor!
Xie Jiuniang shook her head and thought, "These days, if you don't have a talent for singing opera, don't try to get involved."
She had encountered many such things in her previous life. Anyone who had been "helped" by her would stick to her like a dog-skin plaster.
This life has come again...
In this life, she wants to be a person with a heart of stone!
The people performing in the forest watched Xie Jiuniang run over.
The kind that never comes back.
The young man got up from the ground, patted the mud on his body, and asked gloomily: "Who came up with this bad idea? Now, she won't come to save me. How can I get to know her?"
"Master, maybe... she ran too fast and didn't hear it?"
"roll!"
The boy kicked him.
How could I not hear it
The mountains are the quietest place, and you can hear the slightest movement.
There was no way the target person hadn't heard it.
Just as the young man and his companions were about to leave, a flash of light passed by and someone arrived on a sword, shouting, "Who is robbing here?"
"Uncle Lin, it's me! No one is robbing us, we are just joking." The young man shouted hurriedly, fearing that someone would come and chop his two followers with a sword.
The other person who had his face covered also quickly removed his mask and said, "It's us, Master Lin."
"Oh, it's Young Master Gongsun. You guys really know how to have fun." Uncle Lin said with a playful smile.
Gongsun Yu lowered his head in shame, his lowered eyelids hiding the sinister look in his eyes.
