Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 38 Ji Mansion
On the way to Ji's house, Chu Danqing opened the excellent-level treasure chest dropped by Sanshi·Tu in the carriage.

[You opened: Treasure Chest (Excellent), obtained: Skill Book (Spiritual Hunger Hundred Valley Qi), Paradise Points × 2000]

[Skill Book: Spiritual Hunger Hundred Valleys Qi]

[Type: Active Skills]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Effect: After using, you gain the skill Spiritual Hunger and Hundred Valleys Qi, causing damage to targets within range and additional damage to targets with health above 70%, and adding 1 layer of hunger to yourself]

After Chu Danqing finished reading the introduction of the skill book, he stuffed it into the storage space.

The more skills you learn, the better. He doesn't have that much time and playground points to improve them.

On the way to Ji Mansion, Chu Danqing also met Tie Yan, Han Ying and other apostles who had joined the Taiping Dao.

Except for Tieyan, the rest were the lowest-level believers, who cast talismans and water on the people on the street.

Tieyan is most likely carrying out his final contribution mission, while the others are still on their identity missions.

As for the young man with a flat head, Chu Danqing didn't see him. It is very likely that he went to the government camp.

The threshold of Taiping Dao is the lowest and the difficulty of advancement is the easiest, but it has great limitations.

The threshold for admission to the government camp is higher than that of the Taiping Dao and lower than that of the aristocratic Lu family, but it is the most difficult to get promoted.

The kind that may have the ability but still be unable to make a name for themselves.

The aristocratic Lu family also has many problems, and I can only talk about the eldest brother and not the second brother.

Chu Danqing did not have any conflict with other apostles. Everyone was busy, and few would be so unwise if there was no conflict of interest.

Han Ying from the Dragon and Tiger Alliance was a little indignant, but he didn't dare to take any action.

Dabao's strength can easily tear him into pieces.

They soon arrived at Ji's house, and Chu Danqing asked the doorman to help convey the message.

When the gatekeeper saw that Chu Danqing was riding in Lu's carriage, he was very respectful and reported the matter to his superiors.

Ji Yun rushed to greet him as soon as possible and invited Chu Danqing into the mansion with a smile on his face.

Chu Danqing also knew about Ji Yun's identity. Although he was middle-aged, he was not the helmsman of the Ji family, but his father Ji Zhen.

"I never thought that a righteous man would become a retainer of the Lu family. It's really amazing." Ji Yun couldn't help but sigh.

There had been only six Lu family members serving as priests before, and he had visited all of them, so he knew them all.

"It just happened to be the right time." Chu Danqing was naturally modest.

"That's not true, the righteous man. Every one of the Lu family's retainers and servants is capable."

"It's a pity that I missed it that day, otherwise I would have invited the righteous man into the mansion first." Ji Yun felt very regretful. If such talents were recruited into their Ji Mansion, it would definitely be a great help.

But it was too late now. Ji Yun knew how good the treatment of Lu's retainers was, and he couldn't afford the cost of poaching them.

"I came here today to buy food from the Ji family." Chu Danqing said bluntly.

Ji Yun was not surprised to hear Chu Danqing say this.

"How many heroes do you want?" Ji Yun neither agreed nor refused, but asked the quantity first.

"Well, I'm buying on behalf of the Lu family." Chu Danqing didn't hide it: "So how much can the Ji family sell it for?"

"If it wasn't for the righteous man who came to my door, if it was anyone else from the Lu family who came, I wouldn't sell a single grain of food."

"The buyer of this batch of grain is the government, and it's being used for disaster relief."

"Once it leaks out, even the righteous can imagine the consequences." Ji Yun was willing to sell it because of the life-saving grace.

"I can't give Lu too much. One thousand dan of grain, five hundred coins per dan."

Ji Yun gave a quote, a total price of five hundred thousand coins.

Chu Danqing had calculated the price before his arrival. Before the disaster, the price of a stone of grain fluctuated around fifty coins. Now Ji Yun had only increased the price tenfold, which was considered quite generous, and was basically equivalent to a broken bone.

When he came, he estimated that one stone would cost over a thousand coins.

"Thank you very much." Chu Danqing was delighted. As long as the 1,000 stones of grain arrived, it would definitely be enough to exchange for the contribution of Baihe Zhenren's notes.

Chu Danqing estimated that one dan was equal to about one hundred jin, and one thousand dan was fifty tons of grain.

From this, it can be seen that the Ji family must have transported grain into Yangxian County many times, otherwise there would be no surplus.

And it may still be going on now.

As for the price of 500,000 coins? This is not something Chu Danqing should consider.

There is no need to worry that the Lu family will dislike the high unit price. In today's world, if you want to buy such a large amount of food, you can't buy it even if you have money.

The Ji family was ostensibly running errands for the government, earning some transportation fees, but they didn't dare to earn more.

"You're welcome. It's not easy for me to turn you away since you came to me to discuss business." Ji Yunyun said calmly.

Having said this, Chu Danqing guessed that the Ji family must have taken this opportunity to stockpile a lot of food.

Just waiting for the right opportunity to put it on the market.

He was nice to Chu Danqing because Chu Danqing had saved his life.

If an apostle from another dimension came here, I’m afraid he wouldn’t even be able to see anyone.

"In that case, I will go back and ask Lu to prepare the money before I come back to make the transaction." Chu Danqing had achieved his goal, so he was definitely preparing to go back.

One thousand shi is just a drop in the bucket in this disaster, but it is enough for the Lu family.

"It's rare for a hero to come to my house, so I have to treat him well no matter what." Ji Yun tried to persuade him to stay.

Chu Danqing refused again and again, and Ji Yun finally said with regret: "When you are free, I will make a bed for you."

After this grain transaction is completed, Chu Danqing will not come again.

Now that I have used up the favor, I don’t have the nerve to come to you for help.

He has even less time for chatting and playing.

Ji Yun stood up to see them off. As soon as the two of them reached the garden corridor, they met Ji Yun's father, Ji Zhen.

The other person was wearing luxurious and exaggerated clothes, and had a dazzling array of ornaments and accessories on his body.

The whole person was weighed down by these things and needed someone to support him to walk.

"I heard that the hero who saved my son was visiting my house, so I dressed up a little and came to meet him."

"I'm sorry for coming a little late." Ji Zhen said with gratitude in his tone.

When Chu Danqing saw this scene, his expression froze.

"I dare not." Chu Danqing bowed his hands: "There is still one thing I don't understand, I don't know whether I should tell you or not."

"Please speak, sir." Ji Zhen was confused, but since he was a guest, he naturally gave him enough face.

"May I ask when did Mr. Ji start liking this gorgeous dress?" Chu Danqing asked bluntly.

"It's been a while." Ji Yun answered on behalf of his father: "Yishi, is there anything wrong?"

"But around this time?" Chu Danqing reported the time after Lu San's death.

"There are some differences, but it is indeed during this period of time that I feel the beauty of Chinese clothes." Ji Zhen touched his clothes with his hands, and an expression of fascination and intoxication appeared on his face.

Ji Zhen's hobby is nothing to the Ji family.

Chu Danqing's heart sank; things were getting troublesome.

"Have you ever heard of the Three Corpses?"
