Chapter 489: My generation studies and cultivates, dying on the battlefield is better than living a mediocre life

"Qin Lang?"

Zhang Yuan turned around and glanced at Qin Lang, who was hunched over and stammering. "You're here just in time. Help me identify these things."

"promise."

Qin Lang was as obedient as a grandson. He lowered his head and walked to the long desk, reading three volumes of books. He carefully opened the seals, then closed his eyes slightly, and the majestic aura outside his body surged and shook.

Grandmaster.

This guy is actually a master of Confucianism and Taoism.

In Bailu Mountain of Qingtianzhou, Qin Lang was indeed quite diligent and read all kinds of books and classics inherited from Bailu Mountain.

He was interested in appraisal, and he copied many books on appraisal in Bailushan by hand.

He also went to the back mountain to see the teacher and asked for a lot of knowledge.

But every time he saw Zhang Juzheng guarding the back mountain, his heart trembled.

There was no way. Zhang Juzheng was in the battle in Xuyang City. Everyone in Bailu Mountain was trembling with fear when they saw him.

Qin Lang didn't expect that he would see Zhang Juzheng again after leaving Qingtianzhou.

In the lobby, everyone stared at the scene in shock.

Qin Lang, who is the most outstanding among his juniors in the appraisal business in the Imperial City, is so docile at this time?

Every time this Young Master Qin comes to Yuyuan Trading Company, does he not hold his nose high?

The appraisers all put down their work and turned to look at Qin Lang and the three books he was holding.

Mr. Chen standing by also showed curiosity.

Qin Lang's appraisal took a long time, and his expression changed. At first, he was just shocked, and then sweat broke out on his forehead.

After nearly a quarter of an hour, his whole body shook, the mighty power in his palms dissipated, and he turned around with sweat all over his forehead.

"Zhang, Dean, you have brought too many treasures. I, your student, cannot appraise them all at once."

"If we want to identify all of them, it will take more than half a month."

Hearing Qin Lang say more than half a month, Zhang Yuan frowned slightly.

Jiang Yulang, who was standing by, stepped forward quickly and whispered, "My Lord, since Young Master Qin said you brought too many treasures, we should slowly appraise them. It will take time to sell them later, so we can't lower the price."

"My Lord, if you need money, go directly to the cashier's office."

"This Yuyuan Trading Company originally belonged to you."

Yuyuan Trading Company has many shareholders, including many members of the royal family, and even Concubine Qi is a major shareholder.

But the only one who has the final say in this business is Princess Yuruo. Others can only take dividends and are not allowed to interfere in the business.

In particular, Princess Yuruo invested in the company by specializing in the business of Liangyuanyu, Qingtianzhou and the Northern Great Wall, basically accounting for more than 80% of Yuyuan Trading Company's business.

These rare treasures in the imperial city also support the reputation and wealth of Yuyuan Trading Company.

"Then put the things here. Yulang, help me prepare 30 million taels of gold, including gold notes and gold and silver."

"Also, prepare 500,000 immortal jades."

Zhang Yuan pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Yulang: "Also, within three days, transfer a group of people to the Eastern Territory to open a shop in the capital of Donghan County."

"Yes." Jiang Yulang bowed quickly.

This amount of gold, silver, and fairy jade is no ordinary business.

As the Marquis of Qingyang, Zhang Yuan wants to transfer such a huge amount of money, it must be related to a big matter.

Jiang Yulang and their Jiang family are all dependent on Zhang Yuan, so they would never drag their feet at a time like this.

Zhang Yuan finished speaking and turned to leave: "Brother Zhao, how many old brothers are there in the imperial city? Come on, let's go to my house for a drink."

"From now on, even if I'm not in the Imperial City, you can still go there."

His words made Zhao Changming's face light up with joy. He hurriedly followed Zhang Yuan out, saying repeatedly: "Okay, in a couple of days I will call my old brothers and we will go to the Marquis's mansion together..."

In the lobby, everyone watched Zhang Yuan leave before turning to look at Jiang Yulang.

"Manager Jiang, this marquis wants too much money. Why don't you discuss it with the managers?" an old man in green robe whispered.

"Yes, there is a special formation in the business, you can contact the princess, you'd better report this matter to the princess." The gray-haired old man sitting on the other side also spoke.

"Yes, yes, why don't you tell Manager Zhou that she can go to the palace to report to the Imperial Concubine? Thirty million taels of gold, and five hundred thousand fairy jades, not to mention opening a shop in the East Territory. The princess has already said that Yuyuan Commercial Bank will not open--"

Old Chen was still mumbling, but his words were interrupted by Qin Lang's voice.

"Manager Jiang, I'll be in charge of opening a shop in the East Territory."

The lobby suddenly became quiet.

Who is Qin Lang?

The legitimate son of the Mingyuefang Qin family, his father, Qin Yan, is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Qin Lang also married Princess Yueyao, and he himself is a rising star in the Hanlin Academy.

Such a person is going to be in charge of the Dongjun shop?
"Master Qin, why don't you discuss this with the princess?" Jiang Yulang said with a smile, "Princess Yueyao is stationed at Yuyuan Trading Company. If you go to the Eastern Territory, won't we be apart more often than together?"

Hearing his words, Qin Lang laughed and said, "I will go and discuss with her and take her to the East Territory with me."

After saying that, he straightened his clothes and walked out. After taking a few steps, he stopped and turned to look at everyone in the hall.

"Mr. Chen, this method of hiding treasure in books was passed down from Qingtian Continent."

"With the power of the great Confucian and Taoist masters, the mountains and rivers in the scrolls of calligraphy and painting can be forged into treasures similar to those in the cave heavens. They can be used to hide or store treasures, but if they are used to keep living things, the loss will be too great."

He glanced at the appraisers in the hall, his face calm, "As the heaven and earth advance, the power of the Great Dao becomes more and more intense. Grandmasters and great grandmasters emerge one after another, and their cultivation methods become more and more profound and unfathomable."

"You all need to improve your identification skills, otherwise you will just become a laughing stock."

After saying that, he walked straight out of the lobby.

Jiang Yulang's eyes fell on the book that Zhang Yuan had left behind. He coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, I'm going to prepare the treasures for the Marquis. I'll leave the appraisal here to you."

"What Master Qin said is true. The world has undergone tremendous changes, and the Great Dao has advanced. This appraisal technique must also be improved."

He glanced over, bowed lightly, turned and walked out of the lobby.

In the lobby, the appraisers who were sitting upright, as well as Old Chen who was standing beside them, all had changing expressions as they slowly looked at the three volumes of books left by Zhang Yuan.

"The person who can make Qin Lang so respectful must be no ordinary warrior." Someone whispered in the hall.

"If Manager Jiang was facing an ordinary warrior, he wouldn't be so humble." The old man on the other side also spoke.

"There seems to be no grandmaster with such skills, especially a Confucian or Taoist grandmaster, on Yongtianzhou. It can only be the master from Qingtianzhou." Old Chen's eyes were shining. He took a step forward and put his hand on the book.

The mighty power outside his body trembled, and then his eyes widened: "Qin Lang, this kid is cheating us!"

The others quickly gathered their spirits and true essence, reaching outside the book, and then the corners of their mouths twitched.

"The treasures here are worth enough to buy most of the business..."

"How can you appraise these treasures, which are as valuable as a mountain of gold, in half a month?"

"Hiss, is this because someone emptied some treasury?"

……

In the Yuyuan Trading Company store, Zhang Yuan, accompanied by the young man who had led him to the backyard before, selected a lot of treasures and paid directly with gold notes.

He didn't have much money on him, but it was enough for him to buy some treasures.

Most of his wealth was kept in his own cave.

Most of the masters who have reached the Dongxuan realm do this, but storing things in the cave consumes true energy. The more you put in, the more it consumes. The true energy is not enough for the Dongxuan masters to practice themselves, so they dare not store too many things in the cave.

As for Zhang Yuan, the Three Talents Cave Heaven operates on its own, not only will it not be consumed, but it can also nourish various treasures.

"My Lord, my name is Wang Changyun. The headmaster said that when you return to the Imperial City, it will be time for us students from the academy to follow you."

After sending Zhang Yuan to the door of the business, the young man spoke in a low voice.

Yulin Academy trains students, of course, in order to have some useful people under Zhang Yuan's command.

It was like this in Luyang Prefecture, and it was also like this in the Imperial City.

"Do you know who I am?"

Zhang Yuan looked at Wang Changyun.

"The headmaster often tells us that following the Marquis is dangerous but exhilarating." Wang Changyun's eyes were filled with excitement. "Warriors wield weapons and cavalry, traversing vast straits. Scholars plan and strategize, deciding victory in a fraction of a second."

"For us, studying and cultivating, dying on the battlefield is better than living a mediocre life."

Zhang Yuan nodded and said nothing.

He was very clear about Master Tao's methods.

The real teaching is to make a person passionate and understand why he lives.

Some people say that fame, wealth and honor are not as good as a pot of muddy wine. That is because the person who said this is not interested in fame, wealth and honor, and can only drink a pot of muddy wine.

A real man can sleep on the lap of a beauty when drunk, and hold the power of the world when sober. He can travel across the borders, slay immortals and destroy demons. How happy it is! How can it not be better to be a lonely and nameless person in the mountains, just a pile of withered bones?
Only those who have no ambition will not dare to fight.

"Zhiruo, Zhiruo, please come out and see me——"

"Zhiruo, what do you want me to do to...?"

Not far from the door of the business, a young man in a brocade robe, drunk, staggered and fell to the ground.

Zhang Yuan didn't care and walked straight forward. After taking a few steps, the middle-aged scholar standing behind the young man in brocade robe suddenly spoke.

"Zhang, Captain?"
