I have a fortune book

Chapter 30 Bu Yuanzi, Dragon Qi
Chen Zhongbang was stunned, and neither of the two sides spoke again. It was not until he saw Zhou Bai's sincere expression that he realized that the boy opposite was serious.

When the hot tea in Zhou Bai's cup was almost finished, Chen Zhongbang finally asked: "Young Master Zhou has no fame right now? Or have you inherited the title of your ancestors?"

He doesn't even use the title "Zhou Sheng", because only scholars can be considered for admission. Before, he was just being polite, but now he wants him to recognize the reality.

"No fame, no title." Zhou Bai replied slowly shaking his head.

Chen Zhongbang didn't sneer, but smiled bluntly and said, "Then what is the proof? Young Master, recruiting servants is not that simple."

The implication is very simple, what capital do you have to recruit retainers now?

Even if he is such a "poorly settled household", I'm afraid it won't work.

"It will be tomorrow. Is it enough for the trial case of Bei'an County in Xiangxing's 46th year? If not, is it enough for Qiuwei Jieyuan in Dingzhou?!" Zhou Bai stared at Chen Zhongbang and said word by word.

At this time, Zhou Bai's expression was calm and indifferent, but when he observed carefully, he found an extremely confident expression between his brows.

"This, you..."

The young man's vigor actually overwhelmed Chen Zhongbang for a moment, he couldn't tell whether Zhou Bai was a jesting madman, or the development of the matter was just as he said.

"This is ten taels of silver. You can use it to subsidize your family. Mister has spent nearly 40 years. Maybe it's time to take a risk. If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your family." Zhou Bai took out an ingot of official silver and put it on the stone bench On the ground, and vaguely turned his eyes to those broken houses.

Chen Zhongbang still didn't speak, just looking at the dark sky in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

"I'll come back tomorrow, sir, you can know my sincerity."

Zhou Bai turned around and left in the old-fashioned way, without delaying anything. He knew that no one could trust him in such a behavior.

However, when they walked to the door, Chen Zhongbang said: "How did Mr. Zhou know my talent, and you trust me so much?"

Zhou Bai waved his hand back, but didn't give him an answer.

When Zhou Bai's figure was about to disappear around the corner, Chen Zhongbang's slightly impatient voice came again.

"You know I'm Lehu!"

Zhou Bai paused for a moment, and responded with a drawn out voice: "These are not important."

The echo echoed in the narrow alley, and Chen Zhongbang fell into deep thought for a moment.

Next, Zhou Bai went to several places one after another, all of them were well-known capable people in his previous life, but none of them were successfully recruited.

No one is even as "gentle" as Chen Zhongbang, they are all indifferent and sarcastic.

Because their conditions are much better than Chen Zhongbang's, new recruits may not be able to recruit them.

But Zhou Bai was not discouraged, because Chen Zhongbang alone was worth all of them.

Of course, in the city of Bei'an County, there is also a "famous official" named Lin Ren, who can also be recruited, and his talent is not weak.

But Zhou Bai thinks that Lin Ren is not a good courtier, and his character is tainted.

In the previous life, Sun Yucheng raised an army in response to robbery, discovered Lin Ren among the market, and trusted Jian Ba.

Within a year, he became Sun Yucheng's chief counselor, with a respected status and generous treatment. It can be said that Sun Yucheng is not only his Bole, but also his enlightened master.

With such kindness, you should try your best to stand with the lord till the end, even if you don't say die.

However, when Sun Yucheng fought with other princes, suffered a big defeat, and lost his army and land, Lin Ren, the chief adviser, colluded with the rebellion, which led to Sun Yucheng's defeat and death.

If the future catastrophe is just a dynasty fighting for hegemony in the last days, then Zhou Bai still has the confidence to control Lin Ren, so that he has no chance of rebellion.

But the catastrophe in my memory was not just a simple change of dynasty, but a great change that affected the whole world.

The turbulent waves come one after another, no matter how foresight and ability he has, he will inevitably encounter rough times.

What Zhou Bai needs is for the crew on a ship to unite as one, unite with him as the captain, and have the courage and loyalty to fight against the wind and waves.

Lin Ren, Zhou Bai doesn't need such a great talent, if he accepts it, it will be like setting a time bomb by his side.

But Zhou Bo didn't want it, and naturally there were people who were eager for talents.

……

The Sun family's mansion in the east of the city, with high walls and red tiles, and a continuous courtyard almost occupy an entire street, the heritage of the old county prestige can be seen in general.

Sun Yucheng's residence is in the core area of ​​the continuous courtyard, second only to the head of the family and his eldest brother.

As an heir candidate, he has considerable autonomy in the Sun family, and can even mobilize the resources of the Sun family to do private affairs.

The scholar's fame is secure, and it will be Qiu Wei in a few months. Seeing that it is time for him to participate in family affairs, Sun Yucheng has put the formation of a team on the agenda.

At the Tingshan Poetry Meeting before the county examination, he received a elixir bestowed by the mountain god. Compared with the records of the elixir in the family's collection, it turned out to be the main material of the very cherished shaved pill.

If it is offered to the emperor, he will definitely be rewarded, whether it is to help the ministers supported by the family to go further, or to seek a lieutenant rank below the fifth rank by himself.

Or he wants to cultivate Taoist priests who are loyal to him, and trade them with the sect, and he can also exchange them for spiritual things such as shattering pills and Taoist medicines.

Sun Yucheng didn't forget the reason for obtaining the elixir, the old Taoist priest who reminded him of Tingshan's opportunity.

So he sent a large number of men to search every corner of the city. The old Taoist probably knew that Sun Yucheng was looking for him, and before the servants of the Sun family found him, he took the initiative to visit him.

The two got straight to the point, Sun Yucheng wanted to recruit him as a private offering, and the old Taoist proposed a corresponding reward.

His goal was the elixir that Sun Yucheng had just obtained, the main material of the Transformation Pill, and the Transformation Pill that countless condensing monks flocked to was made from this.

This elixir can at least attract four or five congealing monks to use it, not to mention the temptation of the imperial court to order a knighthood.

However, Sun Yucheng is worthy of winning the heir with a concubine, a hero who can raise troops and start a mansion, when he heard the old Taoist's condition, he agreed without thinking.

In his opinion, without the old way, the opportunity of the elixir would not be his share, and it is just a bargain at the moment.

The old Taoist priest is called Bu Yuanzi, and he is a casual cultivator now, but he has an inheritance. He still remembers that he was taught by his master when he was young, and he received his karma through preaching.

Later, the master's life energy was exhausted and he died, leaving only the inheritance of yin and yang divination and a secret. The ancestor of their lineage once explored the dragon energy in the northern region.

Although the dragon's veins were not determined in the end, several dragon auras were caught, and one of them was found, which should be in the Sun's house in Bei'an County.

When Bu Yuanzi was young, he never thought about supporting the dragon. In his opinion, it was a suicide attempt.

But as he stumbled through the years of cultivating Taoism, he found that casual cultivators really seemed to have no way out, and cultivating Taoism and immortality was just a bubble in the water.

So he turned his head to study the way of divination, and now he can be said to be proficient in one sentence.

As his life energy is about to be exhausted, he is determined to end, and it depends on God's will whether to help the dragon or not.

Therefore, he calculated Tingshan's opportunity and told Sun Yucheng that he only had to wait for the "Qianlong"'s decision.

If you give him the hope of transforming into an ordinary person, he will help him, if you don't, he will find an apprentice to spend the rest of his life.

How much dragon energy is there? Bu Yuanzi has not revealed it all these years.
