Liao Zhai alchemist

Chapter 277 Colorful Gourd
"Eh?!" Hu Susu was dumbfounded immediately, what's going on?Doesn't this horse demon regard this treasure inherited from ancient times as his lifeblood?
The horse demon laughed loudly, and immediately entered the house to meet Hu Susu.Hu Susu was holding the fox girl sword and was a little confused about the situation, but she still walked in with the three ugly monsters.

The horse demon smiled and said, "Miss Hu, look, I built this house for more than 300 taels of silver, and it's all made of high-quality Tianshan fir trees."

He happily showed off his house.Then he pointed to a woolen tapestry and said, "This is the best woolen blanket from Chicken Coop Country, and it costs 100 taels! Check it out, isn't it beautiful?"

Seeing this blanket, Hu Susu couldn't help but said: "This carpet should be placed on the floor, Zhang's family is all placed on the floor, how can there be any hanging on the wall!"

This bumpkin doesn't even know that the carpet is on the floor?

The horse demon laughed and said: "We are such a small family, how can Mr. Zhang be so rich. This carpet costs 100 taels, who can see it on the ground! It must be hung up, since it can protect it, And let people see it, the money is not wasted!"

If you laugh at other people's stupidity, others will laugh at you for being stupid!
Going to a high-end hotel to eat, not taking photos and not posting to Moments, isn’t the money wasted, isn’t the meal wasted? What’s the difference between eating steamed buns and giving mustard at home?
Wealthy people with large families go to high-end hotels to eat, that is to really eat.For those with small families, if they save money and go to a high-end hotel to eat, it is to save face!
Why did the former horse demon regard that ancient pot as his lifeblood, because it was the only thing he could afford to save face, if it disappeared, wouldn't it be his life?

People live in this world, who doesn't want to save face?The horse demon is such a goblin!
The horse demon led Hu Susu and others into the living room, and then a maid brought tea.

"Come here, let's have a taste. This is tea brought from the south of the Yangtze River. It's very expensive." The horse demon said with a smile.

Hu Susu took a sip and was speechless.Isn't this the tea brought by Zhang Wei's old father's caravan? There are too many at home!

But the horse demon didn't care about that, he laughed and chatted for a while, and then one of his wives and concubines brought up a jar.

This jar is quite big, half the height of a person, the whole body is black, the top and bottom are small, the middle is big, and it is a spindle shape.

On the black tank body, there are thin patterns, which depict five grains, namely hemp, millet, millet, wheat, and beans.This is the grain of ancient times.

The horse demon looked at the jar and said, "I used to think of this as a treasure, but now that I think about it, it can't be eaten or used. It's really stupid to treat it as a treasure."

But he changed the subject and said, "However, if you like it, I'm honored to give it to you. Only a big man like Master Zhang is eligible to collect this kind of thing."

"We rough people, how can we have such a refined heart!"

Hu Susu looked at this jar, and also felt the simple and vast atmosphere in this jar, which contained the ancient ancestors' worship and enthusiasm for planting and five grains.Although it has been washed by thousands of years, this kind of thing that entrusts the light of humanity will not change.

Hu Susu looked at the jar, and suddenly said: "I want this jar, just tell me if you have any requirements."

Hearing this, the horse demon waved his hand and said, "It's my honor to be able to give the Grand Master a gift. I don't dare to have any conditions."

Hu Susu looked at him and said, "I don't know what you are. You only have this chance. If you don't tell me, I won't care!"

As soon as the horse demon heard this, he immediately lost his face and said quickly: "This... Miss Hu, don't worry too! That's what I thought. I hope the Lord can give us some cotton seeds so that we can grow cotton too!"

When Hu Susu heard this, everyone was stunned.She suddenly smiled and said, "Why do you want cotton seeds? The monster race doesn't know how to plant them, and they don't want to plant them, don't you know?"

The horse demon smiled and said: "Our demon tribe is not good at planting, but we can still catch people to plant them. Besides this work, there are still many Huawaiyi tribes that can be caught!"

When Hu Susu heard this, she fell silent.Then she said: "I will talk to Zhang Wei about this, but I don't guarantee whether it will work or not."

When the horse demon heard this, he was overjoyed immediately.Said: "Miss Hu can talk as long as she can, and it depends on God's will!"

To let the Yaozu grow food, the Yaozu must not be willing, because the Yaozu has little requirement for crops and grains.Those who eat five grains are human beings.

Those who eat meat will go hunting, and those who eat vegetarian will eat grass.None need to be planted.Only a delicate race like human beings eat grains!

But if cotton is grown, and cotton can be exchanged for money, many fairies will be interested!
Because the goblins found out that the benefits of growing cotton are really faster than robbing!At least to rob, you need to squat and fight, you may be injured, and you may not gain much.

But when selling cotton, the merchants come to trade automatically, without fighting, and the profits are stable and huge.In this case, why go to grab it?Just grow cotton!
Throughout history, no one has succeeded by looting.Robbery can only accumulate primitive capital, and eventually you have to farm.Relying on robbery, you can only be refugees and bandits, and only by farming and farming can you compete for hegemony in the world.

..................................................................

Hu Susu went home with the black pot in his arms.The three ugly monsters left with her, only to return disappointed.The result was the result she wanted, but the process was somewhat out of her scope.

When I got home, Zhang Wei wasn't there either.He went to the farm outside the city.

Hu Susu could only wait, and Zhang Wei did not come back until the evening.After inquiring, it turned out that Zhang Wei was having dinner with the Zhang family at the farm tonight.

I have no choice but to continue to wait.This kind of people are a little anxious, so that they are a little absent-minded when eating.

Chen Zhirui was also absent-minded.

After the two women finished their meal, they both left in a hurry.Seeing this, the three sisters of the Hu family looked at each other sensitively.

In the evening, Zhang Wei finally came back with Xiaoqian!

Hu Susu hurried to find Zhang Wei with the big black jar.

It was very coincidental that she met Chen Zhirui at Zhang Wei's door.

The two women glanced at each other, the big black pot that Hu Susu was holding was really conspicuous, Chen Zhirui immediately asked, "What's the matter with your pot?"

Hu Susu felt guilty for a moment, but she still said: "Isn't Zhang Wei lacking a container to perform the Pot Heaven Art? I'll find him a jar right away."

Hearing this, Chen Zhirui's expression changed, and he pulled Hu Susu to a dark place nearby.

"You are with me! Why are you doing these things behind my back?" Chen Zhirui said angrily.

The two had agreed to advance and retreat together, but they didn't expect Hu Susu to do things secretly by himself.Could it be that the boat of friendship capsizes?
Hu Susu was a little guilty, but she still quibbled: "You didn't mean that, listen to me. This jar may not be useful. If it's useless, asking you to join it would be a waste of your time!"

This is really justified and convincing!

Chen Zhirui still wanted to say something, but she suddenly thought of the purpose of coming here today, and she felt a little guilty instead.

I was so angry just now that I forgot that I also came to present the container.It's just that her container has to be planted.

She snorted coldly and said, "I believe this reason for the time being!"

At this time, they suddenly heard Zhang Wei's voice.

"You two, what are you doing here?"

He heard a noise outside, so he came out to have a look.I saw two women whispering in the corner.

Hu Susu came out and said with a smile, "I brought something for you to see."

Only then did Zhang Wei see the big black pot in her arms.

"What is this?" Zhang Wei went over to pick it up, and then looked at it carefully.

Hu Susu said: "This is the cave container I found for you, see if you can use it!"

"Wow! So you've been busy all day today, and that's why you're doing it!" At this moment, Hu Qinghao came out of the room and said such a sentence in a neutral manner.

Hu Susu glanced at her and said with a smile: "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, so running errands is fine."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei couldn't help but praise her: "You still have the heart."

His words made the other two women snort coldly, and Hu Susu burst into laughter.

But then, Zhang Wei said: "But this jar can't be used for Pot Heaven Technique, because this jar is contaminated with different auras, which will reject Pot Heaven Technique."

The jar is fine, but it doesn't work!
When Hu Susu heard this, the smile on his face froze.She couldn't help but said, "ah, how could this happen?"

Zhang Wei comforted her and said: "This jar seems to have the aura of ancient gods and men. This kind of aura is rooted in the jar. With this aura, it cannot be used as a magic pot."

Hearing this, Hu Susu was obviously disappointed.She thought the jar would be useful!

But Zhang Wei still said: "Where did you get this thing? It has a long history. In ancient times, humans and gods lived together. It is not easy for this kind of thing to be passed down to the present."

The mixing of humans and gods can only explain one thing, that is, in ancient times, either humans were too strong or the gods were too weak, otherwise it would not have been possible for humans and gods to live together.

Just like in a community, poor people who can't get rid of the pot will not live with rich people.Only those with similar economic conditions can live together.

In ancient times, the way of God was not established. These gods were primitive gods and natural gods condensed from the way of heaven. They did not learn to absorb the belief of incense, and naturally they were limited in strength, and would even be killed by stronger ordinary people.

After hearing Zhang Wei's words, Hu Susu forced a smile and said, "This is a gift from the Brown Horse King at the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain."

Zhang Wei looked at Hu Susu in surprise, and then Hu Susu said: "He hopes to exchange this gift for some cotton seeds, so that he can grow cotton on his land."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei nodded and said, "Just ask him to go to Tianmen Cotton Club for this matter, and I will say hello."

It was originally one of Zhang Wei's plans to let the Yaozu farm the land.

Zhang Wei's theory was tested in the palace of the champion, and what he wrote was "Please Plant Cotton to Benefit the People".He wants to follow the example of "sheep eat people" and made the policy of "cotton eats people".

Let the huge economic benefits, both men and goblins be bound in the cotton fields and cotton industry.

In a dynasty dominated by grain cultivation, this is fallacy and heresy. Some people see its reformation, and some people see its heresy.

However, it has been implemented in Tianmen County over the years, and the people in Tianmen County are getting richer and richer. The cotton industry has spawned a large number of workshops, which require a lot of labor.Tianmen County, where there are not many people, will inevitably attract the Yaozu to enter.

This is the initiative of human beings to absorb goblins, so naturally there are not so many voices of opposition.The huge benefits of the cotton fields will also make the goblins jealous, but there is a technological gap in the cotton industry. Whether it is cotton cultivation technology or cotton spinning technology, it is impossible for the goblins to master it by themselves.

Joining humans, this must be the only way out for elves!

And the goblins take the initiative to integrate humans, and among the goblins, there will be less opposition.Interests are the link, and angels and devils can cooperate, so why can't goblins and humans cooperate?
If there is a benefit, go, if there is no benefit, then divide it, make money, don't squander it!
At the beginning, Zhang Wei asked the Yaozu to provide manpower.But manpower can only make the most meager benefits. In any era, manpower is worthless. If you want to really make money, you still have to participate in the distribution of profits.

The supplier is one of the profit distributors, so the flexible horse demon wants to grow cotton and become a supplier.

In the future, when the capital has accumulated to a certain level, these goblins will inevitably become manufacturers and earn more profits. As for whether they will be transformed into distributors and earn the greatest profits, that depends on future development.

............................................................

Hu Susu's failure to offer the treasure made her a little sad.

At this time, Chen Zhirui on the side said: "Brother Zhang, after knowing that you are looking for a container, I also thought about a way. In my house, there is a gourd seed that can produce colorful gourds!"

She took out a box from her bosom, opened the box, and inside was a seed the size of a pumpkin seed.

She continued: "This colorful gourd was once a gourd that became a spirit. In order to collect the colorful underground soil for cultivation, this gourd spirit made its pangolin demon dig through the ground veins, causing a major earthquake in Jinhua Mansion."

"Then it was beheaded by my great-uncle at that time, and in the end there were only a few seeds left. My ancestor got one."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei suddenly thought of a certain childhood memory... He shook his head and threw the thought away.

Then he said, "Can this grow colorful gourds?"

Chen Zhirui said with a smile: "My ancestor has been planting for more than ten years and used countless methods. When he passed away, he did not grow colorful gourds, and the seeds never germinated!"

Hearing this, Hu Qinghao on the side couldn't help laughing, and said, "That's it? Didn't you come to make us happy!"

Chen Zhirui glanced at Hu Qinghao indifferently, and said to Zhang Wei: "My grandfather can't grow it, but it doesn't mean Brother Zhang can't grow it. This baby, pay attention to a predestined person!"

This... This is blatant flattery!
Zhang Wei smiled dumbly, it was rare for Chen Zhirui to have such confidence in himself!He took this kind of seed and looked at it carefully, and said: "If you want to grow this kind of seed, you really need some methods."

This kind of seed still contains vitality, not a dead thing.

"Thank you, Zhirui!" Zhang Wei said to her.

Then I got a smile from Chen Zhirui.

This made Hu Susu, who was next to him, secretly resentful!This boat of friendship may really capsize.

......................................................

In the dead of night, Zhang Wei, who worked hard all night, flew out, set up a cloud, and flew towards Jinhua Mansion.

The Yinshen rides the clouds and the physical body is different. The Yinshen rides the clouds at an extremely fast speed, because there is no need to consider such issues as wind resistance. After flying for a short time, Zhang Wei flew over the Jinhua Mansion.

When he arrived at Jinhua Mansion, Zhang Wei did not hesitate, but flew directly to Qingwei Mountain.

He is a disciple of Qingwei, so naturally he did not startle the big formation, but entered Qingwei Mountain unimpeded.

If you want to know about this gourd seed, it is best to ask the person concerned!

So he decided to come to Jue Leizi in the middle of the night.

At this moment, Jue Leizi's physical body was sleeping, but Yinshen was still practicing.Zhang Wei just called out a little, and Jue Leizi appeared in front of Zhang Wei.

"Why did you call me?" Jue Leizi said with a look of disgust.It's so loud in the middle of the night, there will always be some disgust.

Zhang Wei hurriedly saluted, and said: "Wake up the head teacher in the middle of the night, the disciples are so panic, please forgive me!"

Hearing this, Jue Leizi scolded: "If you were half-frightened, you wouldn't be looking for me at this time! Stop talking nonsense, what can you do with me?"

Zhang Wei chuckled, sometimes rashness, not only won't make the leader dislike it, but it will make the leader feel that you don't treat him as an outsider.But this behavior must be controlled and not used indiscriminately, otherwise it will be counterproductive.

Zhang Wei said: "Chen Zhirui gave me a colorful gourd seed, I just came to ask what happened, because it seems that you killed the colorful gourd essence."

When Jue Leizi heard this, he laughed and said: "The things I used to please my father-in-law are actually in your hands!" Please Zhang Wei!

Is this kid so charming?
He still doesn't understand the affairs of the younger generation.But he was originally free and easy and unreasonable.Don't care too much about these things.

He said to Zhang Wei: "That is not a colorful gourd spirit, just an ordinary gourd that has become a spirit, but wants to cultivate a colorful gourd. He collects the colorful soil from the ground to practice. He is still a hardworking fairy."

"However, what he did was too unreasonable. He directly dug through the leylines! It caused a major earthquake and injured too many people by mistake. Naturally, he will suffer severely!"

Speaking of this, he said with a smile: "In fact, he has also succeeded in cultivation. If a plant-like fairy wants to evolve, he must abandon his original body and grow again!"

"The last few seeds left by him can grow colorful gourds. If they are given to him for more than a thousand years, they will probably be a colorful gourd essence! This supernatural power is also possible."

As soon as Zhang Wei heard it, he said, "Then why didn't Chen Zhirui's seeds germinate?"

Jue Leizi laughed and said, "This kind of seed is not an ordinary gourd seed. It would be a miracle if my father-in-law could grow it. But all the other seeds I sent out have sprouted."

"In Dazun Leibu's courtyard, that seed germinated, and now a colorful gourd has grown."

"Also, the seeds given to the Antarctic Longevity Emperor have also germinated."

"Southern Tianhuo Academy, the seeds of Zhenjun Huode have also germinated."

"If you want that kind of seed to germinate, you must have colorful soil!"

After Jue Leizi finished speaking, Zhang Wei nodded in understanding.It turns out that colorful soil is needed.These colorful soils are not precious things, they are red soil, white soil, black soil, cinnamon soil, gray soil, loess soil and blue soil.

This thing digs towards the ground, and it can always dig out some.

Knowing this, Zhang Wei thanked Jue Leizi, and then flew to Tianmen County.

Flying outside Tianmen County, he went to the pick-up store here in Yinshanshan City, and then placed an order for colorful soil from Yingluo inside.

Buying from here also saves the procedure of refining the soil, which means spending some money.

After doing this, he returned to his yin spirit and went back to sleep.

Two days later, Yinshan Mountain City sent people to deliver the refined colorful soil.These refined colorful soils are more effective.

Just when Zhang Wei was thinking about where to open up a place to put soil and plant gourd seeds.Suddenly, his heart moved, and he remembered the black pot.

In the black jar, there is the breath of the ancient god Ji.This god of grain is the god of grain, and can also be understood as the god of agriculture.

Will it work wonders if the seeds are planted in black pots?

This kind of whim, sometimes just a flash of inspiration for practitioners, is often effective.With a flash of inspiration, people can solve unreasonable problems.

When a practitioner's inspiration flashes, it is often an opportunity.Some monks sat at home and suddenly had a whim, and then calculated with their fingers to figure out what happened.

Therefore, monks' brainstorms are often not groundless.

Zhang Wei did it when he thought of it, went to get the black pot, then mixed the colorful soil and put it into this big black pot.

Then, he put the seeds into the jar and buried them.

As soon as the seeds were put into the black pot, the black pot suddenly trembled slightly.Zhang Wei's heart moved, and he quickly took the jar outside the house.

At this time, the seeds in the jar sprouted!

A thin bud emerged from the soil, and then the bud grew rapidly. Its branches swung around, and suddenly rolled up the pillars in the corridor next to it, and pulled it over!

With a bang, the column was torn off immediately, and the corridor was unsupported, so it collapsed in half at once.

People inside and outside the house heard the sound and hurried over.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Wei couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "Are you trying to put on airs, don't demolish my house!"

After finishing speaking, he said to the servants who came to watch the excitement, "Go and get some long poles."

As soon as the servants heard this, they immediately went to fetch long poles of wood.As soon as these logs were thrown to the ground, the gourd vine started to move. It built a shelf for itself, and then wrapped it around comfortably.

Everyone who saw this scene was stunned!
