Chapter 1487: Not Knowing How High the Sky Is and How Deep the Earth Is

On this day, the sky was clear.

On the second floor of Tonglai Chamber of Commerce, Shi Qingxuan sat in front of the table, resting his chin on his palm, muttering to himself: "Will that person come today?"

For some reason, Shi Qingxuan was full of expectations for the man wearing the mask yesterday.

She thought to herself that maybe it was because that person was very mysterious and she wanted to solve the mystery.

…

Chen Yang got up very early in the morning, but he did not leave the room, but practiced in the room.

It wasn't until he heard Cui Ying's voice that he stopped and left the room.

After washing, he sat at the dining table with Huo Yu, Huo Yinger, and Cui Ying and had breakfast together.

Huo Yu was still serious about his words. In the middle of the meal, Cui Ying went to Yang's house to get some meat buns. Huo Yu said to Huo Ying'er: "Ying'er, don't just play around all day long. Practice more when you have time. Otherwise, I'll ask the master for it for my father." Wouldn’t all the elixirs be in vain?”

"I know, Dad, you are really long-winded."

Huo Ying'er muttered something and buried herself in her meal, obviously not listening to Huo Yu's words.

Huo Yu frowned and said displeasedly: "If you continue to waste time like this, I won't be able to help you for the rest of your life. What's more, although my status as the steward of the Yang family is noble, you should look higher. If you can It will not be difficult to marry into a truly wealthy family if you cultivate to the realm of alchemy before the age of twenty-five."

Huo Ying'er hummed and agreed on the surface, but in her heart she didn't take Huo Yu's words seriously.

Seeing that his daughter couldn't talk, Huo Yu snorted coldly and glanced at Chen Yang, who was eating calmly next to him. He didn't like it for some reason.

How unbecoming is it for a grown man to stay in my house and not leave?

Huo Yu turned the spear around and said to Chen Yang seriously: "Chen Yang, since you plan to live in Anyang, staying in our house is not an option. Besides, a man should stand upright and start a family. In my opinion, you should find someone as soon as possible. a job.”

"I understand, thank you uncle for your concern."

Chen Yang disagreed in his heart, but on the surface he agreed with a smile.

Seeing this, Huo Ying'er rolled her eyes at Chen Yang and muttered: "Men should practice martial arts, or alchemy, formations, weapon refining, and demon taming. As for other things, they are just trivial matters. You are like this now If you are young and really want to stand upright, you should not listen to my father and find a job, but you should..."

"Ying'er, you can't say that."

Huo Yu interrupted his daughter and continued: "Cultivation, alchemy, etc. are naturally superior, but not everyone has that talent. Ordinary people should naturally have ways of living like ordinary people. In this world, we also need Ordinary people, doing ordinary things.”

As he said that, he looked at Chen Yang and said seriously: "Although Chen Yang is ordinary, as long as he works hard, he will not be unable to marry a wife and have children in Anyang City in the future and live an ordinary life."

Huo Ying'er glanced at Chen Yang and saw the lazy smile on Chen Yang's face. She didn't think he was a promising person. She thought to herself that maybe it would be better for Chen Yang to live peacefully.

So she agreed: "Dad, you are right. Even if Chen Yang wants to practice, he doesn't have the conditions."

Huo Yu nodded and said to Chen Yang: "Xiao Chen, let alone your uncle not helping you, as the chief steward of the Yang Mansion, I also have considerable power."

After a pause, Huo Yu proudly puffed up his chest and continued: "The Yang Mansion is recruiting servants recently. If you are willing, I can recruit you into the Yang Mansion and become a glorious servant with just one word." Servant."

"And I can help. I can transfer you to the young master's side and be his personal servant. That position is not ordinary. When the time comes, even some small businessmen will have to treat you respectfully."

Seeing that Chen Yang remained silent, Huo Yu continued: "Xiao Chen, I can tell you, I don't know how many people want this position. But in the end, it's all a matter of a word from me, the big housekeeper. As long as I help you, you will at least It will save you fifty years of detours. After entering the Yang Mansion, you, a single foreigner, can reach the sky in one step."

Chen Yang held back his laughter and said to Huo Yu, "Thank you for your concern, uncle. I am not interested in being a servant for the time being."

"Not interested in!?"

Huo Yu twitched the corner of his mouth, with a look of displeasure on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Chen, you are young, so don't be too ambitious. Could it be that the young master Yang's personal servant has such a high status that you can't look down on him?" "

Huo Ying'er also advised: "Chen Yang, this is an opportunity. The young master is easy to serve, a very kind person, and very loyal. It will be very good for you to become his personal servant."

Chen Yang really didn't want to hurt Huo Yu and Huo Ying'er, so he cupped his hands and said, "Uncle, I appreciate your kindness. As for being a servant, I don't need to. I have my own plans for my future."

"you……"

Huo Yu's face darkened and he said: "I tell you, you only have three days. After three days, the high position of the young master's personal servant will belong to others. I hope you can think clearly and give me an answer within three days. There is still a chance.”

At this moment, Cui Ying came in from the outside with a basket in hand, put two baskets of steamed buns on the table, and said to everyone with a smile: "What are you talking about?"

Huo Yu looked unhappy and said: "Aren't you recruiting servants recently? I said I would help Chen Yang and let him become the young master's personal servant, but he actually refused. Alas, at such a young age, one has to aim high. How big can he be in the future? Achievements?”

Cui Ying rolled her eyes at Huo Yu and said: "I said yesterday that Chen Yang is a capable person. He can even defeat bandit gangs, how can he become a servant? In my opinion, he should join the army and join Anyang City The city guards can at least become generals in the future."

Hearing this, Huo Yu and Huo Ying'er both showed disapproving expressions.

Huo Yu smiled and said, "Yingzi, do you know what realm General Liu of the City Guard is in? He is a great master of the second level of transcendence, and his strength is extraordinary. Chen Yang... Forget it, I won't say anything."

Huo Ying'er glanced at Chen Yang, but shook her head, and suddenly felt that Chen Yang was a little pitiful.

Cui Ying refused to admit defeat, glared at Huo Yu, and said unhappily, "Don't disbelieve me, I believe in Chen Yang, he will become a general of the City Guard one day."

Chen Yang looked up at Cui Ying and smiled, "Aunt Cui, do you really want me to become a general of the City Guard?"

Cui Ying was just talking, and she still felt that it was a bit unreliable for Chen Yang to really become a general of the City Guard.

But she still encouraged him: "Chen Yang, come on, I believe in you."

Chen Yang touched his nose and smiled: "Okay, when I have time, I will visit the City Lord's Mansion and ask him to make me a general of the City Guard."

"See, this is not just too ambitious, it's simply ignorant of the immensity of the world."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, Huo Yu shook his head, with an expression of regret, stood up and walked towards the small door leading to Yang Mansion, saying: "General Chen, I hope you can succeed."

Chen Yang smiled and said: "Uncle, I borrow your good words."
