Chapter 32 Reentry
"My lords, in this location and such a big house, 10,000 taels is really cheap. You can inquire about the value of the surrounding houses. If they are too expensive, I will screw my head off!"
"You bastard, what do we want your head for!" Li Yue stared.
"Two thousand, that's it." Chu Li patted Li Yue on the shoulder.
He checked it with a big round mirror and was very satisfied with the layout of the house. The front hall, the main courtyard, the backyard, and the garden were all prepared, and it was more than enough to accommodate more than a hundred people.
"Brother, isn't this too hasty?" Li Yue's eyes widened: "I haven't gone in to see it yet!"
"You don't need to read it, let's go and get the deed." Chu Li smiled at the clerk of the tooth shop: "It's best not to leave any traces, we usually live in the Duke's Mansion, and we don't have much time, so we don't want to cause trouble!"
"Of course, of course!" The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly, smiled compensatingly, but was startled, wiped off a cold sweat secretly, and almost got into trouble!
"Can I live in today?"
The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly, and said with an apologetic smile, "Of course, but there are some days when no one lives there, so it's best to clean up."
"Well, I know, thank you very much."
"Hey, I want to thank the two sons, the younger one will do it right away, and it will be done soon!"
Chu Li nodded: "After finishing it, send it to the Duke's Mansion, and tell him to find Chu Li in the East Garden."
"clear."
The two walked back, Li Yue said in a low voice: "Brother, it's better to keep a low profile when buying such a big house, why let him go to the mansion?"
Chu Li shook his head: "There is nothing you can't say to others, it's nothing."
"There's nothing wrong with being frank, but there's nothing wrong with it. Now that you've suddenly ascended to the sixth rank, I don't know how many people are envious and jealous. They all wish you could make a mistake and be downgraded!"
"What's wrong with this?"
"People will ask, where did you get so much money?"
"A reward from the family."
"People will ask, what have you done to be rewarded with so much money?"
"Then it's no one else's turn to ask."
"Hey..., anyway, this is too ostentatious!"
"Okay, don't worry, nothing will happen, I have told the manager about this."
"Director Su knows?"
"Um."
"That's good, that's good." Li Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
The two had just returned to the Duke's Mansion when they met the graceful Zhao Ying at the south gate. When Zhao Ying saw them, she hurried over like swallows.
"Senior Brother!" She smiled, "Senior Brother Li."
Chu Li took a look at her and smiled: "Congratulations, Junior Sister!"
Zhao Yingyan smiled and said, "It's okay, let's go as soon as possible!"
"Well, let's go today!" Chu Li nodded.
Li Yue hurriedly asked what happened, but Chu Li hadn't told him about the Tiger Village.
After Chu Litui came back, he and Zhao Ying separated to find horses, met at the south gate, rode their horses through Chongming City, and walked out of the south gate.
Because of the delay, it was already noon, the sun was shining, the two had internal energy to protect their bodies, and they didn't feel too hot. The two horses had just run, and they were full of energy.
"Brother, the tavern has been built, will they come?"
"Let them choose. If you want to live a quiet life, stay here. If you want to be lively, come."
"I don't think Tiger Village is safe."
"Well, I've already bought a house, and I'll take them over this time."
"Senior brother is more thoughtful!"
"Hope it goes well."
He has been a human being for two lives, and he understands that many things in the world cannot be controlled by people. He can't do whatever he wants.
"I've always been worried that someone would find out there, and I can't feel at ease when I practice."
"You got in very quickly."
"Brother, why can't you see that you know martial arts?"
She was very curious about this, she had clearly reached the innate realm, but she looked as if she had never practiced martial arts, and she did not have the aura and appearance of a martial arts master at all.
It seems that Chu Li does not have the vigorous blood of a martial arts practitioner, his eyes are not sharp, and his temples are not abnormal.
"Maybe it's because of the shattered fruit." Chu Li said with a smile.
He usually only keeps a trace of internal energy in his dantian, a negligible wisp, to deal with sudden changes. All internal energy is hidden in the ground, and when his mind moves, the internal energy surges in.
There is no surge of internal force, of course there is no abnormality, outsiders can't see that he has practiced martial arts.
"What a shattered fruit!" Zhao Ying exclaimed: "Also, since you are so skilled in martial arts, brother, why don't you break into the Jiupin Tower? It would be nice to be a guard!"
"Is the guard okay?"
Zhao Ying nodded: "Of course, if you can run out to play, the salary is also high."
Chu Li shook his head and smiled.
"Is the guard not good?" Zhao Ying asked in surprise.
Chu Li smiled and said: "It's not that the guards are bad, but I don't want to be guards."
"Then where is your ambition?" Zhao Ying was even more curious.
All the guards in the mansion are working hard as guards and practicing martial arts. In this world where martial arts are flourishing, martial arts is not good enough, and everything is based on martial arts.
Chu Li went in the opposite direction. He obviously had excellent martial arts, but he didn't want to be a guard, he was willing to be a small guard.
Chu Li said: "I think it's safer to be a guard."
"Brother, you don't look like a coward!" Zhao Ying tilted her head to look at him.
Chu Li shook his head: "I cherish my life."
Zhao Ying stared at him curiously: "Brother, you must have some purpose in perfunctory me!"
"Everyone has their own aspirations. I like a stable life. I don't want to be a guard." Chu Li smiled and said, "Is this hard to understand?"
"If I were twenty years older, I would believe this, but I said this at such a young age..." Zhao Ying smiled and shook her head.
Chu Li waved his hands and said with a smile: "I will not be a guard."
"That's a pity."
"I'm also a sixth grade now!"
"... That's true." Zhao Ying nodded. The status of a sixth-rank guard is similar to that of a sixth-rank guard, except that the salary is doubled.
Chu Li smiled at her.
What I pursue is different from others. What I want is not only martial arts, but also power.
A man cannot be powerless for a day. He was tortured by power in his previous life. As a researcher, research funds are controlled by his superiors, just like a **** being controlled by others. The feeling is too painful and tormenting. If you set your ambition, you must be an official.
When he came to this world, he went out of the temple to enjoy the wonderful taste of power and power.
Although martial arts is the most powerful force in this world, power is even more powerful. Strong martial arts are only free and easy, and powerful power is the most beautiful, and then it is not a waste of life.
Being a guard can only pursue strong martial arts, and it is difficult to enter the power class of the Duke's Mansion, so he will not go to the Jiupin Building anyway.
The two talked while riding horses. At noon the next day, they came to Tiger Village, and when they saw the entrance of the cave, their expressions suddenly changed.
The original huge stone shattered into pieces and scattered all over the ground.
Chu Li looked at these fragments and sighed: "What a deep internal force, what a powerful palm!"
