Daqizong

Li Wan threw the problem back to Elder Mo, went back to the mansion by himself, and had a drink and discussion with Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang.

At this moment, the servants outside the door suddenly came to spread the word that someone had come to the door with a letter of worship, and it was to be handed over to Li Wan for receipt.

"Who is here, let him in." Li Wan was a little puzzled.

Not long after, he saw someone coming, but it was a monk who looked like a guard. After asking if Li Wan was here, he handed over a post and left without saying anything.

Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang came out from the back hall and asked, "Li Daoyou, what is it?"

Li Wandao: "I don't know either, let's talk about it after reading this post."

He immediately opened the post and read it: "I see, Elder Mo is from the young lady's school. This post was written by the young lady herself, and she wants to invite me to come over and talk about it."

"It's Missy?" Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang couldn't help being surprised when they heard this.

Although Tiangongfang is not a big sect of the sect, after all, in a workshop, there are still rules of respect and respect. No matter how Li Wan is, he is just a new craftsman and a guest.

To be invited by the eldest lady means that she attaches great importance to it.

"However, a talk in the house? It's different from a formal banquet." The two looked thoughtful.

Li Wandao: "Never mind what kind of banquet and private meeting, besides talking about that matter, can we do anything else?"

"It seems that she still wants you to take the lead in contracting the work." Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang guessed the intention of the eldest lady, "I just don't know, what will I use to convince you."

Li Wandao: "It doesn't matter so much, you will know when you go."

When Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang heard this, they had nothing to say. Li Wan might have to go to this invitation.

But before leaving, they still warned: "No matter what the eldest lady says, just hesitate to agree first, but when it comes to the key point, don't agree too quickly. Sitting on the fence and watching is the kingly way to protect yourself."

Li Wan nodded, but a moment of hesitation flashed in his heart.

Sitting on the fence?Is it really that good?

***

When night came, Li Wan guessed that the time was about the same, and came to the south side of the mountain abode alone.

This is the inherent territory of Fangzhu's lineage. There are guards patrolling along the way, with open posts and secret posts. It is very safe. Li Wan asked the way casually, and then knew the location of the other courtyard where the eldest lady lived.

Li Wan had been guessing along the way, what kind of person the rumored eldest lady would be, and what kind of posture he should take if she asked for it in person, and she had found it before she knew it.

What appeared in front of me was a quiet and elegant courtyard.

Two pink-clothed maids with lanterns appeared before them. Seeing Li Wanxun approaching, they stepped forward and asked, "But Master Li is in person?"

Master Li...Li Wan was taken aback for a moment before realizing that it was a title of respect for him, and nodded involuntarily: "It's me... Missy invited me here, I don't know where Missy is."

The pink-clothed maid said: "Missy is already waiting in the gazebo in the courtyard, please Master come with us."

Li Wan said: "I'm tired." Then he stepped up and followed them.

Not long after, Li Wan followed them to the gazebo in the courtyard, only to see light gauze curtains and bead curtains hanging around, like a women's boudoir.

There is a faint figure, who can be vaguely seen sitting inside, and on one side of the pavilion, the table and cushions have been prepared.

When Li Wan was surprised, a pleasant voice came out from the curtain: "Please don't blame Li Daoyou, I am busy with work, so I can't meet you at night, in order to avoid suspicion from others, let's meet through the curtain .”

Li Wan looked around and saw that the surroundings were brightly lit, illuminating the courtyard brightly. The maid in the mansion hung up the lanterns and stood beside her with her head bowed.

Seeing this, Li Wan couldn't help but feel moved.

He has been in the workshop for more than three months and heard some rumors.

Everyone in the workshop said that the eldest lady is very mysterious. Since she came out to take care of the family business in her early years, she was afraid that she would not be able to control the scene at a young age, so she often retreated behind the scenes and covered her face with a veil. Few people have seen her real life. face.

Since she had such a habit long ago, Li Wan didn't take it to heart, and said, "It's okay, it's all up to Missy to arrange."

The eldest lady said politely: "You Daoist Li, please sit down. I have prepared the spirit wine and fine wine. I will have a drink with you tonight and talk about the things in the workshop."

Li Wan sat down cross-legged as she said: "Thank you for your hospitality, miss."

The eldest lady was not in a hurry, first asked about Li Wan's recent situation in Tiangongfang, and then asked him if he was used to living in Tiangongfang, and whether the arrangements in the workshop were reasonable, etc. It was a very ordinary greeting.

Li Wan knew that it was not because of these nonsense that she called him here. After waiting for a long time without seeing the topic, he finally couldn't help but said: "I don't know if the eldest lady called me here, but there are other things?"

The eldest lady seemed to chuckle slightly: "Why are you so impatient, Daoyou Li?"

Li Wan was speechless after being exposed, but the things he guessed were not on the table after all, and the miscellaneous things that the eldest lady talked about were normal concerns for her subordinates, so she had to be patient.

Just when Li Wan's patience was fading, the eldest lady suddenly changed the subject: "Since Daoyou Li talked about other things, I might as well talk about it. Recently, there is a backlog of workpieces in the workshop that no one has contracted. Did you mention it?"

Li Wan was startled and woke up: "I said so."

The eldest lady seemed to be puzzled, and asked: "This is a good opportunity, Li Daoyou has a great talent, why don't you show off your strengths?"

Li Wan is naturally hard to say, he has heard about the internal strife in Tiangongfang, so he doesn't intend to get involved, he hesitated and said: "What can I do, Elder Mengmo and Missy value it so much..."

The eldest lady sighed softly: "Why should Li Daoyou be too modest, to be able to refine two rare magic weapons in three months, such things are not something that ordinary weapon refiners can do."

The eldest lady said again: "I heard that Li Daoyou's master's background is quite unusual, so it's inconvenient to tell others, but my Tiangong Workshop has always only asked about talents and crafts, not about other things, so why worry so much?"

Li Wandao: "Missy said so, it seems that I am worrying too much, I just hope it is true."

The eldest lady said: "It's a very simple thing for the workshop to hire you to refine weapons for mutual benefit. If you have any concerns, please speak up. I can make a guarantee here. Fangdu can firmly support and share your worries."

Even though he knew that the guarantee could not be taken seriously, and there were countless verbal promises in the world, which were still empty papers in the end, Li Wan couldn't help but raised his head in surprise and looked at the gently shaking bead curtain.

What the eldest lady said was unusual.

After all, she is the young master of Yifang, her words can already be said to be golden words, representing Tiangongfang's statement.

Li Wan pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Miss has already said so, if I push back and forth again, won't it become ignorant of flattery? Since this is the case, I might as well say some things directly. I have studied art for many years, and I have indeed I am so proud of my ability, if there is something in the workshop that calls me for help, it is understandable, but the workshop must give me some guarantees, otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult to get rid of distracting thoughts and refine the weapon with peace of mind.

The eldest miss also knows that refining is a delicate craft, and the quality is out of the question if you can't settle down. "

He knew that the only thing he could live with now was his ability to forge weapons. Apart from that, his mere mid-stage qi refining was no more than a disciple of the outer court in the Zongmen sect.

So he has the ability to refine weapons, so he might as well blow it into Dali, the stronger the blowing, the better.

The eldest lady pondered for a moment, and said as expected: "Okay, tell me."

Li Wandao: "I want the workshop to guarantee that taking over these workpieces will not cause me any trouble. If there is any trouble, the workshop will clean it up for me. I don't want to be distracted by this matter."

The eldest lady's voice, without the slightest hesitation: "Yes."

Seeing that the eldest lady agreed, Li Wan felt relieved, and his biggest worry was finally let go.

In fact, when he mentioned this point, he had already made up his mind. If the eldest lady's reaction was to pretend to be dazed, or even deliberately confuse the audience, and to work hard on the words, he would immediately get up and leave without continuing the conversation.

As the saying goes, in front of bright people, don't speak secretly, everyone can cooperate sincerely, and mutual benefit is even better, but it is meaningless to play others as fools.

The young lady's straightforward words made him feel much more at ease, and he also felt sincerity.

Li Wandao: "I want to build the foundation as soon as possible, and the workshop needs to support me. In the late stage of Qi refining, the completion of Qi refining, and the early stage of foundation building, it will take a lot of spiritual jade. It is best to lend me 30 spiritual jade. "

During the day, Li Wan asked Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang, and they said that this batch of elixir was carefully refined by the Danxianmen, and if they were sold out, it might take three to five years for the next purchase.

Three to five years is not a long time for people in the Taoist sect, but it would be a waste to waste it, and Li Wan didn't want to wait.

If you miss the past few years, there will be some unforeseen changes in the future, and you might miss it again. Many monks' opportunities to become enlightened are missed step by step like this, and they will never be found again.

However, Li Wan just got 4000 Lingyu, plus the salary he got in the past two months, and the remaining [-] from last time, all kinds of expenses were spent, that is, more than [-] Lingyu Jade.

And the price of the Foundation Establishment Pill is roughly equivalent to a high-quality real weapon. Even if you have contracted this batch of magic weapons, it may not be enough. The rest is to borrow from Tiangongfang.

This is what Li Wan asked for from Tiangongfang, and it is also the benefit that can be obtained from it.

"No problem, anyway, you have the ability to refine weapons, and you will pay it off in a few years, and if you succeed in building a foundation, you can refine real weapons, and you can pay back even faster." The eldest lady still agreed very readily.

Li Wan smiled and said: "Okay, as expected of the eldest lady, she really speaks quickly. In fact, what I want is nothing more than these two things. Now we can talk about it. I still don't know what kind of important task the workshop will entrust to you." I."

That night, Li Wan and the eldest lady had a long discussion in the courtyard, but no one knew what they talked about.

Only the maids in the mansion saw that Master Li seemed to be extremely satisfied. After drinking and eating, he was slightly drunk and wandered away. ;
