Dragon's Origin

Chapter 554: Grand View Garden (Part 2)

A whole garden of beauties that other men can't enter, isn't this the real-life Grand View Garden? Wang Sheng blurted out the name almost without thinking.

After saying it, Wang Sheng realized that if only he could enter, wouldn't he become Jia Baoyu, the Second Master Bao? That softie? Bah, bah, bah, bad luck! Unfortunately, there's no way to take it back.

However, the Empress and Mei'er, as well as Qiangwei, pondered it over. The Empress was the first to exclaim, "Not bad, not bad, a grand view, Grand View Garden, how interesting!"

Steward Zhou also chimed in with praise. The atmosphere was harmonious and joyful.

After another round of chatting, the Empress asked with great curiosity, "Lord Changsheng, according to your estimation, how long does it take for an ordinary musician to grow into a grandmaster?"

"Very long," Wang Sheng replied with a smile. "Your Majesty sees those grandmasters, the youngest of whom is over seventy years old. Without immersing oneself in it for thirty to fifty years, it's probably impossible."

"Even with a grandmaster teaching, it takes so long?" the Empress asked again.

"I'm afraid so." Wang Sheng knew this aspect; there was no shortcut.

Perhaps there are a few incredibly talented geniuses who can reach this realm at a very young age, but generally, it's only possible after the age of sixty. The reason is that their life experience is insufficient, and they cannot feel the emotions and moods in certain pieces. Moreover, this world is not like Earth, where there is a knowledge explosion, and one can know everything happening in the world while sitting at home. Therefore, the possibility of such success is extremely low.

"In that case, when you are in the capital, if you hold a grandmaster-level concert every month or two, even if those people want to move against you, they probably won't be willing to, right?" The Empress suggested.

From this sentence, Wang Sheng knew that the Empress was genuinely trying to find a way out for him. Of course, there must be a stance considering the royal family, but at least the starting point was based on the difficulties Wang Sheng might face in the future.

If it were a normal situation, according to the Empress's operation, even if the secret of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land was completely unraveled, all parties would tolerate Wang Sheng and would not kill him completely. Because only Wang Sheng could invite those grandmaster musicians, even if others begged with more gold coins, those grandmasters wouldn't even glance at them.

The problem is, the Empress doesn't know what Wang Sheng wants to do in the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land. If Wang Sheng's guess is correct, and the girl in the dream was the number one expert of the Lin family back then, releasing her would probably make him the enemy of the world. At that time, let alone the major lords, even the royal family and Worry-Free City would hunt down Wang Sheng.

The only one he could trust was the Old Lord Temple.

In any case, Wang Sheng was very grateful for the Empress's consideration. After thanking her solemnly, he looked at the time, and it was almost time for the Empress to leave.

Wang Sheng easily took Qiangwei and Mei'er for a walk around the entrance of the Wang Residence, which hadn't been renamed yet, and pointed out to hang a plaque on the door, attracting the gazes of those who were staring at Wang Sheng. Steward Zhou then took the Empress away from the back door easily, without disturbing anyone.

That day, Wang Sheng stayed in the Wang Residence, and this move broke the hearts of countless people in the capital. The thought that the goddess they had never even met was being wantonly bullied by Wang Sheng in this Wang Residence made many people unable to sleep all night.

Regardless of the situation outside, the Wang Residence was a different scene.

The Empress cleverly helped Wang Sheng save face again, making the women in the Wang Residence extremely grateful. After the sisters who served in the reception hall went out, they told the other sisters about the Empress's words again, and as a result, Wang Sheng was once again thoroughly admired by the women.

Anyway, Wang Sheng was served extremely well in the Wang Residence. As long as the sisters who were responsible for serving him, each and every one of them was extremely gentle, and almost everything was done without Wang Sheng having to lift a finger. Even when Wang Sheng rested at night, the two sisters warming the bed couldn't help but have watery eyes, and the number of beauties directly serving in the bedroom even increased to twenty.

Mei'er and Qiangwei seemed to have expected this situation. After having dinner with Wang Sheng that day, they returned to the Changsheng Duke Residence, using the excuse of going back to check the accounts, but in reality, they left Wang Sheng to the women of the Wang Residence.

No one would force Wang Sheng, but everyone in the residence tried their best to seduce Wang Sheng. Unfortunately, Wang Sheng could only politely decline the women's efforts. Although he still accepted the women's thoughtful service, he still ended up doing something worse than a beast.

The next evening was the day of the advance concert, and Wang Sheng had already informed the women to prepare. This time when Wang Sheng came back, he found that the women had almost all reached the edge of a breakthrough.

It must be said that re-cultivating is indeed a rapid increase in cultivation. In just a few months, the women's cultivation realm in the Everlasting Spring Heart Sutra has averaged to the peak of the fifth level. I believe that after tonight, everyone will be at the sixth level.

Just when Wang Sheng was planning to cultivate normally for a day and wait for the arrival of the evening concert, Mei'er and Qiangwei rushed to his door again. The appraiser that Wang Sheng was looking for to appraise weapons had a problem.

After listening to Mei'er's description, Wang Sheng realized that it wasn't that the appraiser had a problem, but that there was no real appraiser in this world at all.

Normal business doesn't need an appraiser at all. It all depends on the shopkeeper's own eyesight. Whether buying or selling, it's all the same. This is also one of the reasons why a good shopkeeper is so hard to find.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Usually, the shopkeeper only needs to know the quality of the goods, know the grade of ordinary things, be able to distinguish them, and be able to set a price based on the approximate market conditions, and that's enough.

As for the aspects of cultivation methods, combat skills, and even pills and pill formulas, there are special shopkeepers who operate in this area to take care of them. The quality of weapons, on the one hand, is determined by the people who forge them themselves, such as grandmasters from the Exquisite Pavilion, and on the other hand, it is determined by the customer's own eyesight. There is no authoritative evaluation standard at all.

In this world, there are many families that have lasted for hundreds of years. Although not every one is a large family like the Eight Great Lords, a medium-sized ordinary family with a thousand or so people is normal. This has led to very few decent antique transactions in this world.

Although antiques, calligraphy, and paintings are treasures that can be passed down in the world, the problem is that the people here used animal skin scrolls before. The so-called calligraphy and paintings have only developed in recent years since Wang Sheng created easy-to-use Xuan paper. How can we talk about antiques?

After messing around, there is only one result, that is, Mei'er and Qiangwei searched all over the capital and couldn't find an appraiser that Wang Sheng was talking about.
