Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 516 Selection
  Of course, Chen He couldn't answer the multiple-choice questions thrown by Gu Xun immediately. After all, he knew nothing about the two swordsmanships except their names.

"Sir, what are the characteristics of these two sword techniques?"

Gu Xun thought for a moment, carefully considered his words and then replied:

"Both the Qingguang Sword Technique and the Thunderbolt Sword Technique have the characteristic of speed, but the former focuses more on lightness and agility, as fast as lightning, focusing on using speed to control speed, and integrating virtuality and reality, while the latter is more focused on explosive power, moving like thunder. The whole world is shocked. We should focus on condensing the void into the reality. In the silent place, we can hear thunder at first sight."

"Also, the power of both will increase during thunderstorms."

Of course, this has little to do with swordsmanship, but is created by internal strength, mental skills and sword weapons.

Gu Xun's explanation was not detailed, but the basic characteristics were clearly explained. Chen He's martial arts skills were enough to make a judgment on which one is more suitable for him...

"Sir, I choose Ben Lei Sword Technique!" Chen He made a decisive decision without thinking for too long.

His marksmanship follows the path of swiftness and force, so when changing weapons now, of course, he would give priority to martial arts with a more similar style.

Gu Xun finally confirmed, "Are you sure you choose this?"

"Sure!" Chen He nodded without hesitation and affirmed in a loud voice.

"Okay, just wait for a few days, and I'll hand it over to you after I've prepared everything." Gu Xun responded after hearing this.

The money he has on hand now is not enough to exchange for the Ben Lei Sword, and he has to wait for the salt-making business to be concluded.

Although martial arts can be taught to him first, it is not necessary. Chen He is not like Nong Yu, and his martial arts foundation is about zero. Although his internal strength is not impressive to Gu Xun, at least he has the value of training. , instead of directly abandoning and rebuilding, there is no need to rush for a while, wait until the Ben Lei Sword is in hand, the human sword merges into one, and the practice is faster.

Chen He naturally had no objection to Gu Xun's arrangement, but he had some other issues that he needed to confirm with Gu Xun:

"Sir, do I need to keep this matter secret?"

"It's not necessary." Gu Xun shook his head and gave a negative answer, "If someone asks, you can tell the truth, but you must remember not to pass on any martial arts of the Ben Lei Sword lineage, and the Ben Lei Sword cannot be faked by others at will. hand."

After Gu Xun finished his instructions, he remembered that the Ben Lei Sword still had to be passed down, and quickly added, "Well... the exception is if you are recruiting a serious disciple, but the Seven Swords can only be passed down in one line, so the real disciple, you I can only accept one.”

Chen Hehun nodded indifferently. For him now, recruiting disciples can be said to be out of reach. He is only interested in practicing martial arts and has no interest in teaching others to practice martial arts.

After the business talk was over, it was time to enjoy the delicious food. Although Gu Xun was the only one enjoying it, as for Chen He... it was just to avoid starving to death.

………………

The next day, Tian Dan went to Gu Xun with carefully selected craftsmen.

Gu Xun had no impression of Tian Dan. Although he would rise up following the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang uprisings in the future and proclaim himself King of Qi for a while, during the Chu-Han War, who would care about anyone other than Liu Bang and Xiang Yu? What about other so-called kings?

He is not the first to try Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. Gu Xun thought he was just an ordinary member of the royal family of King Qi, and began to direct these craftsmen to study salt production.

Although Linzi is close to the seaside, it is not a real coastal city after all. It is indeed troublesome to study seawater salt production here, but Gu Xun is not interested in going to Jiaodong for this matter. Anyway, it is King Qi's people who are in trouble, not him. .

The whole process was more troublesome than Gu Xun expected, but there were not many problems. After all, it only required two things, limestone and seawater, which were nothing more than a few filtration and purification steps.

Although Gu Xun's chemistry was almost returned to the teacher, he still had some impressions. It took him more than half a month to successfully develop a set of qualified processes and produce refined salt with a relatively white color.

Of course, more filtration steps are needed to achieve this. It is estimated that Qi State will actually use only the first few steps on a large scale in the end. This is enough. Both the output and quality have far exceeded that of Qi Wangjian. expectations.

Therefore, His Majesty the King of Qi, who was rich and wealthy, paid very happily, two hundred thousand gold, in one step, exactly.

In this way, with less than 100,000 gold, Gu Xun can replace all the Seven Swords.

During the salt production period, Gu Xun did not forget his job as a doctor, and successfully completed several sales, easily earning nearly ten thousand yuan.

Of course, being able to start making profits so quickly was mainly due to Qi Wangjian's reputation. Gu Xun specifically asked him to be his caretaker. He was the first to openly seek medical treatment for himself, and paid the full one thousand gold consultation fee, successfully opening the hospital. situation.

Of course, the 1,000 jin of medical expenses paid by King Qi, plus another 1,000 jin of medical expenses, must have been paid back in full, and the money of the wealthy gentry was naturally... all put into Gu Xun's pocket, and it was impossible to split the account between 30 and 70. , it would never be possible - if he didn't see that he would soon negotiate a big deal with him, he would not return the two thousand gold Gu Xun. After all, he really gave Qi Wangjian a full-body examination at that time.

Among the people who saw the doctor, Gu Xun was not what Gu Xun expected. There were indeed a few who paid bribes to gain connections. Gu Xun was not polite to them. Although none of them had serious illnesses, he would not refund any money.

During this period of time, Qi Xiang Hou Sheng was surprisingly honest and had no intention of provoking Gu Xun.

Although the deaths of Guo Kai and Yan Chunjun seemed to others to have nothing to do with Gu Xun, they looked a little evil after all - they died as soon as he came, what a coincidence!

The ancients would inevitably believe in some theories about gods and ghosts. Hou Sheng and some of his dog-headed military advisors all agreed that Gu Xun was unlucky, suppressed noble people, and was not easy to approach.

Hou Sheng still cherished his life, and did not wait for his nephew to take some insurance measures to restrict him. He honestly stayed out of anything related to Gu Xun. Anyway, only money was important to him, and he obviously didn't. It is very possible to get money from Gu Xun, so the best attitude is to keep a respectful distance.

In this way, Gu Xun enjoyed a rare time of making money easily. In the blink of an eye, the time came to the end of December and the new year was approaching.

Gu Xun finally gave up his plan to return to Qin State to celebrate the New Year with his sword, because the first month of Qin State was not January at all, but October. In other words, Xianyang celebrated the New Year two months ago...

At this time, for the people of Xianyang, they should spend the winter in their rooms, without any lively atmosphere.

Of course, the main reason is that Gu Xun feels that it is not suitable to run around during the Chinese New Year.

If we can't reunite, we can't. Separation is the normal state of life, so there is no need to be too persistent. Let's just take this time to share the beauty of the moon thousands of miles apart.

　If you are interested, you can look it up about the Spring Festival of the Pre-Qin Dynasty. It is actually very boring. It mainly involves worshiping ancestors and gods.
