When the Great Dao Dies, I Remain; When Spiritual Energy Withers, I Endure

Chapter 56 Night Market, Saving Money

Although the Lingtian Dynasty was divided.

But in the eyes of some people, it was not necessarily a bad thing.

The territory was matched with the national strength. In the past, the national strength was the practitioners and the countless magic weapons in the royal treasury...

Now, these cannot be easily used, and may even be directly scrapped.

The national strength was converted into soldiers, horses, food, and money...

"Your Highness, do you suspect that the white-clothed swordsman might be His Highness Changxiao?" the maid asked.

"Yes." Li Tianxia nodded gently, "The white-clothed swordsman, walking around the world... How cool, to be honest, I have to thank him."

The maid understood.

The princes and princesses who had real power. They all had their own ways to make money from the people.

And this master of his founded the "Xingmin Commercial Bank", which specializes in the production of daily necessities, that is, the various small items invented by Li Changxiao to please Li Shanhe a long time ago.

He made a lot of money, and many princes were jealous, but when they came to their senses and wanted to intervene in this business, it was too late.

Li Tianxia's eyes flickered.

Ever since she knew that it was Li Changxiao who invented many practical gadgets.

She immediately sent people to collect all the information about Li Changxiao when he was in the palace, and then blocked it.

Her brother had a miserable life.

No wonder he took advantage of the chaos to come back and take revenge on Concubine Zhou.

However, what interested her most was a concept that Li Changxiao had proposed, "bow and crossbow" and "crossbow".

This weapon can shoot arrows with great lethality with just a flick of the finger!

If it is equipped in large quantities in the army...

"Alas, it's a pity that he was driven out of the imperial city before he invented it."

"Otherwise, if my Lingtian Dynasty had this weapon, then the Chitian Dynasty and the Litian Dynasty would be just so-so."

Li Tianxia sighed.

The maid heard what she said and already understood what to do, "I will go and find out the whereabouts of His Highness Changxiao."

...

Li Changxiao was carrying five hundred taels and was worried about how to spend the money.

So he made a list.

When making the list, he asked her many questions, such as when the people chasing her would come and when would the temporary safety last.

Zhao Qing didn't answer, she only knew that she was in the net and couldn't escape.

However, in the short term, it was absolutely safe, which involved some of her secrets.

Li Changxiao saw this and asked in a different direction.

He began to ask her if she was willing to go to the brothel? Did she like opera? Was she interested in the ten great things? Had she heard of the famous mountain twenty miles away?

Zhao Qing naturally said she had no objection.

Li Changxiao laughed and patted the silver on his body, saying that he had to spend so much silver to feel comfortable.

The two knew that they couldn't go to Qingxiu City, so they spent twenty taels of silver to buy two horses.

In addition, saddles, horseshoes, saddle ropes and other items cost about twenty taels.

The two rode horses to a nearby big city.

A young man in white and a tall horse, as the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Li Changxiao no longer looks like a down-and-out drunkard, but a handsome young man who travels far away.

Even Zhao Qing commented that Li Changxiao is actually not bad looking, no wonder...

She stopped talking later, and when Li Changxiao asked what was the wonder, she simply turned her head away and did not answer.

The two entered the brothel.

When Zhao Qing got off the horse, his eyes were wide open, looking at Li Changxiao in disbelief, and asked him, is a brothel such a place? You brought me here?

Li Changxiao just laughed and replied, it's for both the refined and the popular.

Immediately, he spent a lot of money and invited the courtesan to sing a little song for the two.

Zhao Qing, who was in the midst of the wind and moon, felt that the things in the world were really wonderful, and he would also enter this place of wind and dust one day.

After leaving the brothel, Li Changxiao went to the most expensive restaurant in the area.

It was a four-story attic.

The dishes ordered were also the most expensive, and there was a troupe performing on the side.

At night, the market was very lively. Li Changxiao had never dared to touch this place before, because his money did not allow it. Now that he had money, he naturally wanted to come here to take a look.

The whole street was very lively, and the shouting and hawking were endless.

Perhaps it was infected by the fireworks.

Zhao Qing also completely left behind the lofty, illusory, and unspeakable avenue. Since she decided to forget it temporarily, at least, she had to forget it completely during this period of time.

So, she found many interesting things.

The old man who made sugar figures was really skilled, and he made a lifelike sugar figure in one go.

I also found that the sesame cakes across the street were really fragrant. They were just sprinkled with salt and sesame oil, but they were delicious.

There was also a mask stall, where there were all kinds of masks, and there were many people gathered in front of the stall owner.

She pulled Li Changxiao over to watch.

It turned out that the stall owner was wearing a mask and telling a story about a fairy descending to the earth. After the story was finished, a lot of people rushed to buy masks.

The stall owner's business was booming, and he couldn't open his eyes because of laughter. When he was happy, he told everyone another story about the love, hatred and vengeance between the heroes of the world.

"I want that."

At the end of the story, she actually pulled the corner of Li Changxiao's clothes, pointed at the mask on the stall, and asked for it.

This time, it was Li Changxiao's turn to be stunned.

Then, he smiled knowingly and took out money to buy himself a pair.

It is said that today is some kind of mask festival. Many people on the street are wearing masks. No wonder it is so lively.

Wearing a mask, Zhao Qing looked at the natural painting that was like a slowly unfolding scroll, reflecting the full moon, lights, all living beings, and even the winding river that broke his path.

He appreciated the scenery that he had never noticed.

The face under the mask showed a strong smile.

It seems that there is more than just the road between heaven and earth.

Sometimes, if you forget the road, you can see more and more things.

Li Changxiao found a place to sit down by the river road. He wanted to sleep, but Zhao Qing was full of energy. Zhao Qing asked him for one or two taels of silver.

Li Changxiao waved his hand and gave two taels, and then said that he would sleep here for a while, and you can come back to find me after you finish shopping.

After that, Li Changxiao fell asleep by the river road.

Two taels of silver has a very high purchasing power in today's world, which is enough for ordinary people to live comfortably for two months.

It can be said that it can't be spent in one night.

The pedestrians on the side noticed this scene and whispered.

I don't understand what this man in white is thinking.

With such a beautiful female companion, if it were me, I would accompany her to the end even if my legs were lame.

But this guy is just lying here sleeping, letting the beautiful woman go out to play by herself?

Seeing this.

The minds of passers-by became active.

Some people followed Zhao Qing and wanted to chat with him.

Some people had their eyes flashing, staring at the cloth bag on Li Changxiao's back.

There must be a lot of silver in it.
