The Red Age of Sword and Magic

Chapter 23 I just want to make a fortune
Master Zeng Shan stroked a roll of parchment in his hand, sighed for a while, and handed it to Shao Shan together with his graduation certificate.

"This treasure map is not an antique, it was given to me by Sword Master Yu Chenghui 20 years ago when he came to visit me, and it was drawn by him himself.

According to ancient rumors, the God of Light assisted Datang to rule the world. After personally formulating the system of electing emperors, he protected Datang for 100 years.Before returning to hermitage, he left two tips for his descendants.

It is said that when the world changes and cannot be solved, open the kit, or find a way.

The first kit has been opened by your ancestors of the Shao family.It was the end of the Tang Dynasty, and the villagers rebelled. Merchants and capital forces followed the descendants of Guan Kairun, the founding king of Dingyuan County, to rebel.

You Shaw Clan came out with a ZTE master, expelled the Guan Clan rebels, led the Great Xia Army to quickly reunify the world, and restored the system of electing emperors in which the Shao Clan and the Su Clan ruled in turn.Due to the outstanding contributions of the Shaw family, all the ministers agreed to change the name of the country to Daxia after ZTE.

Although Uncle Shao Wen took action to quell the rebellion, the root cause of the chaos was not resolved.He personally went to the small island in the Caspian Sea to pay homage to the remains of the God of Light, and opened the first kit. "

All the students here are familiar with the period of history Zeng Shan talked about, not because everyone is an expert in ancient history, but because they benefited from the spread of storytelling gentlemen.

The story of Uncle Shao Wen's Zhongxing, three sticks to fix the country, the restoration of the country in one year, and the transformation of the Tang Dynasty into the Great Xia is full of legends and is sung everywhere.

Uncle Shao Wen was nicknamed "Shao Sanbang" by the storytellers of later generations. In the legend, the Emperor of Zhongxing has become a figure like a fairy.

Others don't know what was written in the first kit of the Envoy of Light. After reading it, Shao Sanbang made an astonishing decision.

Not only the Guan family was pardoned, but all wealthy businessmen and factory owners who supported the rebellion were also pardoned. A lower house composed of representatives of merchants and capitalists was formed, the son of Guan Xiangmin was appointed as the speaker, and businessmen and factory owners were allowed to participate in national politics.

Most of the nobles opposed it, but Shao Sanbang used the name of the God of Light and his own personal prestige to forcibly implement this major reform.

"The effect of the first kit of the God of Light is well known, and it has established the country for 600 years in the Great Xia.

Shaoshan, since you feel that it is time to change again, the second kit of the God of Light may guide you. This treasure map is the map leading to the ruins of the God of Light in the Caspian Sea. "

"Shan Zhang, since Juggernaut Yu was able to draw this map, he must have looked for it, didn't he take out the second kit?"

"After the cataclysm, the place is completely deserted now, and the monsters along the way can't stop the Juggernaut's footsteps. But at the last pass, he discovered that the envoy of the light god set the conditions for obtaining the kit.

Only the direct descendants of Su, Shao, and Li's three electors are eligible to receive the kit.Awed by the prestige of the envoy of light, Yu Jiansheng did not dare to move lightly, and returned empty-handed.You are a direct descendant of the Shao family, so you naturally have the qualifications, so you might as well try it. "

Shao Shan didn't think so in his heart.He has known this legend for a long time, but he has always believed that people often deify ancient things.

If the Envoy of Light has something to tell his descendants, he can just say no. It has never been the right way to govern the country by making it so secretive.I am a direct descendant of the Shao family, and I have never heard that the envoy of light has anything to say to stay.

His ancestor, Uncle Shao Wen, had long seen the current situation clearly and knew that the social conflicts at that time must be resolved by giving capital forces the power to participate in politics.Going there to ask for tips is mostly to use the prestige of the envoy of light to suppress the opposition of the nobles.

Even if those two kits really exist, they are probably an excuse for the envoy of the God of Light to pass on to future generations to reform the system, and to use his own prestige to help future generations.The Angel of Light is also a human being, so Shao Shan didn't believe that he could predict the situation 1000 years later, write out countermeasures and put them in his kit.

Shao Shan is the one who opposes the theory of only blood.The son of a nobleman will always be a nobleman, and the common people will have no future?Only the descendants of the direct line are eligible to take the kit, isn't it just to maintain the system of the three surnames taking turns being the emperor?
The kits of the Angel of Light must be made to protect the interests of the royal family and nobles. Regardless of whether there are dry goods in it, it must run counter to the goal of benefiting the public that I pursue, and I should not need it.

But Zeng Shan had good intentions, and Shao Shan was understanding and would never show this kind of disbelief.Kneeling down on one knee, "Master Duomeng takes care of you, I wish you good health and can always take care of your younger brothers and sisters."

Seeing Shao Shan go down, Master Zeng Shan was very satisfied.This child knows how to take care of himself, and the elderly value this most.As for none of his three gifts being recognized by his disciples, he didn't know.

It was Randy's turn, and Randy couldn't be more excited.Swordsman is the most common profession, and it was only because I was lucky enough to join Ruiyuan's group that I received the honor of being personally interviewed by Master Zeng Shan and awarded a graduation certificate.

Normally, Zeng Shan was tall and tall, and he had almost no chance to get close to him.Today Zeng Shanzhang personally received and encouraged him, which is a long-cherished wish of Randy.Randy has just obtained two fairy artifacts, but he doesn't have much extravagant expectations for the gifts that Zeng Shanzhang might give him.

Zeng Shan took a long look at Randy, "The young man is young and strong, his age like the sun is really enviable.

You came from a poor background, you know the importance of continuous improvement, and you spend all your money to study here, which is a role model for the new generation of young people.

I'm not very proficient in kendo, so I have nothing to teach you. We rarely meet each other, but I've been following your progress.

Let me tell you as an old man, if people from poor background want to gain a foothold in society, they must be proficient in an art, and only then can they achieve something if they have the foundation of their career.

You have been working hard, I am very satisfied, what is your ambition? "

Master Zeng Shan asked his disciples one by one about their ambitions, which was a bit like "Zi Lu, Zeng Xi, Ran You, and Gongxi Hua Si Zuo" in the Analects of Confucius. He himself is a descendant of Zeng Zi.

Randy blinked, "I just want to make a fortune now, make some money, let my mother and brother live a good life, and then make more money..."

Su Meimei in the audience couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Ruiyuan also shook his head and sighed.Except for Shao Shan, nearly a thousand students from all classes whispered to each other, they were all laughing at Randy, a bumpkin.It seems that people who are poor and short-sighted are not talking nonsense. Common sayings are a summary of experience.

Master Zeng Shan looked around majestically, and everyone fell silent. "Don't laugh at Randy's ambition, you may not have his nobility."

Turning around and looking at Randy kindly, "Young man, you are the first to think of making money for your mother and younger brother. This is deeply in line with the principle of filial piety. In ancient China, it has been passed down for thousands of years. It is the principle of loyalty and filial piety.

After the catastrophe, our Great Xia was able to recover quickly because we have the inheritance of our ancestors, which is very good.

But after making money, you have to open your eyes and have higher pursuits. "

Randy is not a fan of money.His original intention was to earn more money, go to Delphi to activate the giant teleportation array, take Ke Ke over, and fulfill his promise.

But in the middle of the conversation, he suddenly felt that it was very inappropriate to tell about Ke Ke, so he stopped there, causing misunderstandings for everyone.

Most of the students come from wealthy families, especially Su Meimei, who is a super rich girl. Her own starting point is the end point of Randy's pursuit, and she immediately felt a great sense of superiority.

Randy thought for a while, "A higher pursuit... If possible, I want to become a glorious sword master like Senior Yu Chenghui."

"That's good, but it's not enough, kid. Whether you can become a Juggernaut depends on talent besides hard work. This is just the pursuit of personal ability. My disciple, it is not necessary to become a Juggernaut, but you must become one." useful to the country.

I see your aptitude, it is very difficult to become a leader like the God of Light and Prince Shao Shude.However, Tian Xing, Fan He, Cai Nanshan, and Guan Kairun, the famous generals of the Great Xia Federation back then, all came from poor backgrounds, so they should be your role models.

If you want to become such a famous general and pass it on to future generations, you must follow a wise guide.It's like you joined Ruiyuan's group this time and won the championship. "

Ruiyuan was secretly happy in the audience, the teacher is trying to attract people for me.Randy is a heartless kid, and he doesn't talk about kung fu.If you follow me, it will be a big help for me to achieve great things, and I will definitely be a tiger general in the future.

guide?Randy rubbed his head, "Master Shan, usually Shaoshan takes care of me the most. My family is poor, and he said he wants to find a way to make the poor happy. I agree. If he asks me to help, I will definitely follow. of."

Meimei curled her lips in the audience. In her opinion, the reason Randy was willing to follow Shao Shan must be because Shao was the former emperor elector.Isn't Shao Shan the surname Shao?My surname is Su, and I am a descendant of the Angel of Light.

What age is it now, Daxia has been dead for 400 years.This kid is so obsessed with Shaoshan's usual small favors, he can't see the great future of following Ruiyuan, he is really stupid.

On the contrary, Ruiyuan didn't care.Shao Shan himself admits that he has no idea yet.In Ruiyuan's view, Shaoshan's ambition is too idealistic, and there is no possibility of realizing it.

Since Shao Shan treats him well, he is willing to follow. I, Ruiyuan, are better at doing things that benefit others.Even Shao Shan, when he enters the society and hits the wall a few more times, I have the confidence to recruit him and do things for me.

Did not get the answer he expected, Zeng Shanzhang was not disappointed, "It is a good thing for young people to have ideals, and whether they succeed depends on God's will. You are simple-minded and willing to work hard, and you will definitely be able to achieve something in the future. This is my last gift. Here you go."
