Becoming a God from a Water Monkey

Chapter 509 Personal Instruction (4k)

"Hey, hey, hey, cow, don't stand on the road and poop! Pick it up, pick up the cow poop!"

In front of Tianbo Tower.

The man's trouser legs were covered with black mud. When he saw the carriage coming, he led the old buffalo and hurried over. However, the old buffalo went crazy halfway through the journey, stopped moving, spread its hind legs, half-raised its butt, and defecated a pool of cow dung.

The petty officials at the Hebo Office were all dumbfounded and clenched their whips. The King of Yue was coming and was going to shit a pile of cow dung in the street?
Liang Qu turned around when he heard the voice.

"Hurry, hurry, clean it up, clean it up!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

Since his superior was present, the clerk could not whip the man, so he urged him on and held his nose to get the man to clean up the place.

Liang Qu withdrew his gaze and stepped inside. Long Binglin and Long Eying were on his left and right, half a body length behind them.

"My lord, please come this way."

The steward leads the way in front on the right.

Just entered the door.

Countless eyes were cast over.

Without him.

Standing at seven feet two and over two meters four, Long Binglin has a very strong presence and stands out from the crowd.

In the "empty" peripheral vision, a "little giant" with a sense of oppression suddenly appeared, and everyone couldn't help but focus on it.

It’s even more amazing after focusing, I can’t take my eyes off it.

Three people, none of them is ordinary.

Needless to say, Liang Qu is well-known and very popular.

I just took the jade token from the King of Yue yesterday. It is unique and has caused a sensation in the whole palace.

Consider identity.

I heard that the Hebo area has connections with the dragon man, and some of them even work in the government office. So, I guess the "giant" is the legendary dragon man?

On the right...Dragon Girl?
A guest was amazed: "Are all dragon girls... so beautiful?"

Her skin is as soft as jade, so beautiful, like a piece of jade that has been soaked in clear water.

Accompanying each other, quiet and dignified.

There are mostly men on the first floor.

Liang Qu, no matter how outstanding Long Binglin is, he is not as eye-catching as Long Eying.

However, the Dragon Girl followed Liang Qu around and made their relationship clear. Even though they were curious, everyone did not dare to be too blatant and cause trouble. They just glanced at him from the corner of their eyes, feeling both annoyed and envious.

The steward who led the way turned sideways.

"There are still 25 minutes before the auction begins. Would you like to take a look around the first floor?"

"Go to the second floor."

The second floor is operated by Tianbolou and is more secure than the first floor.

The steward bowed.

Facing countless gazes, Liang Qu was in a very good mood.

He looked around and said, "You're welcome to take whatever you like. I'll help you pay."

Long Binglin and Long Eying nodded in thanks.

Go up to the second floor.

The noisy bargaining sounds mostly disappeared, and the shops were in order.

"How much is this jade?"

In front of the jade shop, Liang Qu stopped, picked up a piece of white jade from the black velvet cloth and asked the price.

The mutton-fat white jade seed material has not been processed and is covered with a layer of light yellow stone skin. It is slightly larger than the jade pendant given by the King of Yue. The quality is poor, but it is basically impossible to tell unless you hold it in your hands to play with it and compare it.

"Lord Liang, do you like this piece of Tianshan Yuhe white jade seed material? Four thousand two hundred taels of silver." The jade dealer recognized the identity of the person asking the price.

“So expensive?”

Long Binglin was surprised.

If it was a precious fish or a precious plant, several thousand taels would be understandable.

But this is just a piece of white jade, it cannot be eaten or used, why?
“Gold has a price, but jade is priceless. The jade in the Tianshan Jade River can only be salvaged when the melting snow in summer and autumn forms a torrent that washes the jade from the deep mountains into the river.

When the flood recedes in late autumn, the river water becomes clear, which is the best season to go down to the river to collect jade. However, it is freezing cold. I wonder how many legs of the jade miners must be frozen before they can dig out a piece of mutton-fat jade of this quality, which is not expensive.

My Lord, please find a good jade craftsman to carve a piece of jade in the shape you like. Wear it all the time and feel happy. This kind of comfort cannot be bought with any amount of money. "The jade dealer said respectfully, "Manager Sun is an expert in jewelry, why don't you give me some advice?"

The usher raised his hand and bowed: "Master Wang has signed a five-year contract with our Tianbo Chamber of Commerce. This is indeed a fair price."

Liang Qu stroked the jade and had no doubt about the credibility of Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.

"Wrap it up!"

The jade dealer turned to get the wooden box.

Liang Qu raised his hand to stop him.

“Are you a jade worker?”

The jade dealer nodded and said, "My Lord, do you want to make it? I think that there is no need to rush to process such a good material. You need to take it home and nurture it. Think carefully about its shape. Otherwise, it will be difficult to regret it after you have processed it."

"No regrets." Liang Qu reached into his bosom and took out a palm-sized jade tablet. "Do as follows."

The jade dealer took the jade token and thought about the rumors yesterday. He was secretly surprised: "Sir, this..."

"Make me an identical one." Liang Qu thought without hesitation. "Yesterday, I received the jade token to announce the good news. Master's wife loved it very much, but it was not appropriate to keep it for her own use. So I thought of making an identical one and keeping it by her side as a reminder. How long will it take?"

The jade dealer thought it was an excuse, but he didn't ask any more questions and just looked at him and estimated.

"Master Liang is here to attend the auction, right?"

"Correct."

"Twenty taels, after the auction."

The shape of the jade plaque is not complicated. It is square with rounded corners, with the Chinese character "Yue" on the front and auspicious cloud patterns on the back.

The jade dealer used red lacquer to print the front and back sides, confirmed the size, cleaned it, returned it, and took the jade seed material worth more than four thousand taels to polish and process it.

"Master's wife" was naturally just an excuse. The jade plaque with the same carving might come in handy someday.

The King of Yue needs to infuse Qi and blood to use his attack.

Zhang Xu said in person that after one strike, the jade token would crack.

But there are fakes, and as long as no one has seen Liang Qu use it, the King of Yue’s attack will always “exist”!
"Are there any you like? You're welcome."

Long Binglin and Long Eying shook their heads.

Although the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce is full of novelty to the dragon people, its appeal is not that strong. Houses built with plants are not uncommon underwater.

After receiving a negative answer, Liang Qu went up to the third floor.

"Yiqi..."

After glancing at the box numbers, Liang Qu walked inside.

The reason why I brought Long Binglin and Long Eying here today is not to find bodyguards or to set up a grand occasion, but because Hebo Institute has arranged a separate box for the dragon clan.

The dragon people were rich. When they moved out of the Dragon Palace, they brought with them a lot of treasures, but not much cash.

So I brought two of them here today.

The entire third floor is slightly different from the last time. The private room in the center of the second floor of the third floor has been completely renovated from the door frame to the door.

From the outside, it looked like it was at least a hundred square meters. When I passed the door, I could smell a faint scent of incense wafting from the house.

Needless to say, the core position is reserved for the King of Yue.

The steward opened the door.

"Master Liang, Brother Binglin, Sister Eying!"

In the box, Long Zijian and Long Zihe were busy eating watermelon. When they saw the three people coming in, they put down the watermelon rinds and stood up to greet them.

Long Binglin was surprised: "You are here too?"

Long Zijian scratched his head and laughed, "Pingjiang and Pinghe are working at the Hebo Office. They went to Jiangling County to survey the waterways. There are not many dragons nearby, so I brought Zihe here to join in the fun."

Long Binglin shook his head helplessly.

After exchanging a few pleasantries and settling the dragon man, Liang Qu went to his master's box No. B3.

open the door.

Xu Zishuai slapped his thigh fiercely: "Hey, the real boss is here!"

"A Shui, you just patted your butt and left after touching the pillars. You almost exhausted me and Senior Brother Hu to death yesterday!" As soon as he saw Liang Qu, Xiang Changsong couldn't help but complain.

Liang Qu was puzzled by their reactions.

"I'm touching the pillar... How could I tire you two brothers?"

Hu Qi rubbed his eyebrows.

"You took out a jade token yesterday, and you are really famous. In the afternoon, the number of apprentices coming to the martial arts hall to learn martial arts increased sharply! My junior brother Xiang and I did nothing all day, and we didn't teach anything. We were busy settling the new apprentices. In the evening, we counted and found that we had recruited 136! The martial arts hall couldn't accommodate them all, and even so, people still came after dinner!
Including today's new apprentices, there are 216 new students here to learn martial arts! More than half of them are from other places. They took a half-day off today to take advantage of the auction. I guess there are still people signing up now."

Xiang Changsong smiled and asked, "Junior brother, guess what the first question they asked when they came to register was?"

Liang Qu pretended not to know: "I can't guess."

"Ha." Xiang Changsong cleared his throat and said in a pretentious tone, "Excuse me, is this the Yang's martial arts school that taught Liang Shuishi?"

Xu Zishuai laughed out loud.

Liang Qu scratched his cheek.

The arrival of the King of Yue was a rare event in the entire Pingyang Prefecture. Coupled with the tap water of the villagers in Yixing Town, I invisibly gave my master a lot of advertising.

It is not even limited to Pingyang Prefecture and several surrounding towns, but also includes nearby large counties.

Although the distance between the counties is a bit far, if you can afford it, you can stay in the martial arts school. Not going home for three months is not a big deal.

"How to arrange for the extra apprentices?"

"What can be arranged? Master discussed it with Master Pang and arranged for some people to stay there. Those who really can't stay will be scheduled for next month.

Our martial arts school continues to expand. The master has called in a large number of craftsmen to build another two acres of long row houses and a third martial arts arena.

Don’t you have a fellow countryman named Lin Songbao?
He is now a second-level warrior, just like Li Libo and Chen Jiechang, running between the river official and the martial arts hall. "

"Then I'll go back and discuss it with the owner of the martial arts hall in my town. I think I can accommodate some of them." Liang said.

There are three martial arts schools in Yixing Town, so there must be a lot of vacancies.

It's empty anyway, so why not earn some money for accommodation? I think the three martial arts gym owners will not refuse.

"Okay." Hu Qi did not refuse.

Speaking of martial arts schools recruiting people, Liang Qu thought of something.

"Brother, how is the joint venture with the academy that I mentioned earlier going?"

The arrival of the King of Yue was an unexpected situation, and no one had thought that this would happen before.

Many big families entered Pingyang Prefecture, and the two senior brothers were worried about how their martial arts school would compete with other martial arts schools that "guaranteed job placement".

Liang Qu’s suggestion was to first cooperate with Shanghu Academy to teach literacy, temporarily improve competitiveness and stabilize development.

Afterwards, when your own farming plan develops, continue with the "work arrangement" as the best strategy.

Illegal money is increasing day by day, while honest money is disappearing day by day.

Beautiful women often sleep with perverts.

The essence of the martial arts school under a big family is for "screening".

It is equivalent to the people paying for "employee training" themselves.

There wasn't even a proper teacher in there. All of them were old apprentices who had only learned for a few months, and they were teaching the new ones. It was a complete mess.

Those who have achieved results are singled out for work, while those who have made mistakes or practiced inappropriately are not cared about at all.

The quality of teaching is far inferior to that of normal martial arts schools.

It’s no wonder that a martial arts school that apparently offers work arrangements is more attractive than one that simply allows students to learn something.

Xiang Changsong said: "Principal Zhao has agreed to pay you a normal monthly salary. It's easier than I thought. It should be because he gave you a favor for reforming the Pinyin system.

Actually, this trick is quite effective. Before the King of Yue came, there were many more people coming to our martial arts school to learn martial arts than usual, especially those who couldn’t afford to pay too much money. "

“Are there any martial arts schools imitating this?”

"Yes, the Liu family and the Li family have both imitated it." Xiang Changsong listed them all, "But the effect is not as good as ours. Shanghu Academy only accepts our family, and all other martial arts schools are rejected. If a teacher goes to teach, he can only represent himself, not the academy. The academy's picture albums cannot be borrowed."

"I'll have to thank Principal Zhao some other day."

"No."

"Isn't it something?"

"Senior Brother Lu, Senior Sister Zhuo!"

Several more senior brothers and sisters entered the room, and the box became more and more lively.

"Last time there were more than 100 items for auction, this time there are 300, more than double the amount. I wonder if it's possible to sell for a million?"

"Yes, with the King of Yue and the Grand Master, there must be something better."

"Do you think the King of Yue can take pictures?"

"Not really... Once the King of Yue makes his move, who dares to raise the price? The Chamber of Commerce must have shown the list to the King of Yue in advance. If there is anything he likes, just pick it up. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to compete with us."

"Don't dare to guess."

"What time is it? Why don't you start yet?"

Xu Zishuai opened the window and looked out at Pingyang City.

The bustling hustle and bustle of cars and horses could be heard from the streets, and the wide avenues were filled with small squares one after another.

A well-dressed dignitary emerged from the end of the road in a horse-drawn carriage.

High-ranking officials including the Chief of Hebo Police Station, the Commander of the Monster Hunting Division, and Prefect Jian arrived early. No one went upstairs, so they waited respectfully in the lobby on the first floor.

Yang Dongxiong and Yu Dun are among them.

Master, Second Brother was standing in the hall. The other disciples could not sit on the third floor to eat and drink, so they had to follow him down to welcome the King of Yue.

Pure drudgery.

There was no need to talk, and everyone was standing in line.

Speaking of which, I didn’t see Su Guishan.

Liang Qu poked his head in.

Ever since the King of Yue came to Pingyang Prefecture, Su Guishan has never appeared in the west wing, and Wu Cangshou has disappeared as well. However, all the little turtles in the pond are still alive.

I wonder if Su Guishan, who has just taken office, will come back to live here...

The third day since my uncle was away.

miss him.

"Meet the King of Yue!"

Liang Qu's thoughts were scattered, and he suddenly heard shouting, but he was blocked in the middle.

There were so many people around that he couldn't see what was going on in front of him, so he just followed everyone around and bowed.

"Have those who received the jade token yesterday come to participate?"

This statement came out.

Everyone turned around and looked around, their eyes quickly falling on Liang Qu in the back row.

Immediately, they moved back in perfect harmony, forming a human wall, allowing the King of Yue to see the owner of the jade token very clearly.

Liang Qu: “…”

"Eye Consciousness" feels a unique gaze.

It was completely different from the past. I couldn't feel any emotional meaning, but it seemed as if there was a real weight pressing on my shoulders.

Without time to think, Liang Qu lowered his head, walked quickly forward, and clasped his hands in a bow.

"Your subordinate Liang Qu pays homage to the King of Yue!"

"No need to be so polite." The King of Yue raised his hand and looked at everyone, "It's getting late, everyone go upstairs, you follow me."

Finished.

The King of Yue stepped onto the stairs, and Zhu Bingcan in front of him pulled up his knee shield and led the way quickly.

Why does it feel like the dean of studies has called you?

Liang Qu was puzzled and did not dare to stop for a moment. He quickly followed the King of Yue amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the many gold medal holders behind him.

"Everyone..."

"The first thing today..."

A few wisps of smoke rose straight up from the purple copper incense burner.

Outside the box, the opening remarks of Zhu Bingcan, director of the Chamber of Commerce, could be clearly heard.

The King of Yue sat upright on the Arhat bed, leaning against a cool jade cushion. Zhang Xu leaned over and handed him a book.

After flipping through two pages, the King of Yue closed the album and pressed it into his hand.

“I thought no one could pass the last level of the martial arts test, so I never intended to teach you all how to do it.

However, in such a big world, there are always geniuses and eccentrics.

When we met the boat that day, you had the scent of a white ape on you, but I didn’t bother to pay attention.

It was most likely Su Guishan's idea to know my whereabouts and route.

Since you have passed the martial arts test and are so outstanding, I will not inquire about the means you used. I just want to ask one thing.

Would you like to be my personal disciple?"
