Chapter 41

Old bastard, if you dare to come, I will tie you up and punch you twice.

The sense of crisis that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time finally dissipated, and Liang Qu became cheerful, especially with his pockets bulging, his heart was even cooler. Looking at the prosperous Pingyang Town, he couldn't help but want to buy something.

The three of them happened to pass by a cloth shop, so Liang Qu asked the two senior brothers to wait for a while, and went in to buy two sets of finished cotton clothes.

Nowadays, cotton alone on the market is three hundred wen per catty. A long coat for a tall person takes three catties of cotton. Two sets of clothes cost Liang Qu nearly three taels of silver.

The clothes sent by the senior brothers are excellent, but they are too good, so he is reluctant to wear them. He sweats a lot when practicing martial arts on weekdays, so it is better to choose two sets of cheap goods that are easy to replace.

Liang Qu took out the money bag and returned the three taels of silver he had borrowed from Cao Shixiong Xiang earlier.

"Liang Shidi, it's just three taels, I forgot if you didn't mention it."

Liang Qu shook his head: "Borrowing money is borrowing money. If you borrow money, you have to pay it back."

The robes sent by Xiang Zhangsong look expensive, but gifts are gifts, and borrowing money is borrowing money. No matter how many gifts you send, you can't say that the borrowed money doesn't need to be paid back.

"Harm."

Xiang Zhangsong helplessly accepted the silver. Although he really didn't care about three taels of silver, he was inexplicably happy in his heart.

After buying things and going forward for a while, it is Wufangzhai, the best pastry shop in Pingyang Town.

Liang Qu had bought apprenticeship gifts here before. He took out another tael of money and bought two boxes of pastries, preparing to give one box to Li and Chen, and one box to Uncle Chen's house.

Hu Qi smiled: "It seems that Liang Shidi Liang is indeed very happy, but I don't know if there is our share in these two boxes."

Liang Qu scratched his head embarrassedly. He actually forgot to bring it for the senior brothers. Although he was not as rich as the senior brothers, he had to express it, so he was about to take out money to buy a few more boxes, but was stopped by Hu Qi.

"Eh, just kidding, Master gave you ten taels of silver in total, and you have spent nearly seven taels now. If you buy it for us, wouldn't Master's money be given in vain? If Liang Shidi really has a heart, invite us to a meal after you earn money in the future."

Liang Qu nodded and secretly kept this matter in his heart.

As a direct disciple of Master Yang, he now catches two hundred wen of fish a day, and no one will doubt it. Fishermen will only think that it is worthy of being a direct disciple of Master Yang, and the fishing style is so dashing.

Even more exaggerated, it is not impossible to show one treasure fish a month. In that way, the monthly income can reach nearly ten taels of silver, and one hundred taels a year, which is worth ten farmers.

Of course, this method is the simplest and rudest. Liang Qu now has more than one way to make money by fishing. For example, Xiang Zhangsong and Hu Qi are in the martial arts hall, one handles people and things, and the other is responsible for teaching. It is not white work. Master Yang has a salary, and the treatment is quite rich, with dozens of taels of silver per month.

If Liang Qu has no money, he can also come over to do it for a period of time. Even if the realm is not enough to teach people, he can follow Xiang Zhangsong to do some chores. After reading books, he can help register information.

During the conversation, the three arrived at the martial arts hall.

On the martial arts arena, the blood left last night had been covered with a layer of yellow soil. I don't know what method was used, and not a trace of blood smell could be smelled.

There were still those fifty or so "acquaintances" on the field.

Oh, no, Liang Qu scanned the circle and found that after deducting Lu Tingcai's seven people, there were only forty or so left.

There are many apprentices in the martial arts hall. Master Yang comes over for five days at the end of the month, and today is only the second day.

The so-called guidance is not only in action adjustment, but also includes key points of fighting methods, guidance of blood and energy, choice of practice progress, matching and taking of medicinal materials, and various complicated precautions. Therefore, everyone cherishes it very much and will not miss it easily.

It's just that Lu Zishuai is not in the crowd. Speaking of which, Liang Qu hasn't seen him since yesterday, and he hasn't appeared until today.

But he doesn't care much. A proper martial artist like Lu Zishuai coming to the martial arts hall is no longer to learn things, but to seek an atmosphere and environment.

Furthermore, Lu Zishuai nominally belongs to "substitute class", and no one can blame him for neglecting his duty. At most, he will be reprimanded twice.

Liang Qu is looking at everyone, and everyone is looking at him.

Wearing a black beast skin cloak, wearing narrow-sleeved, narrow-waisted gold-edged robes, a wide leather belt on his waist, a waist token and jade pendant hanging on both sides, and metal arm guards faintly exposed in the swaying cuffs.

Because of his age, his height is not very high, and his skin is a bit dark, but he wins in his posture, which is tall enough, and he has a style and heroic spirit.

Is this the boy who had dog shit luck last night?!

Everyone's mind couldn't help but recall Liang Qu, who was wearing yellow-brown hemp clothes last night, whose clothes didn't fit, and who was written with poverty from head to toe.

Like two different people!

They couldn't believe it, but seeing Hu Qi and Xiang Zhangsong talking and laughing beside Liang Qu, they had to believe it.

Xiang Zhangsong has always been polite and patient to others. When there is a conflict between apprentices, they usually come to him to preside over justice.

Martial Artist Hu Qi's words are not many, but he treats everyone equally, is dutiful, and will not be biased because of your different backgrounds, and he is deeply cultivated.

But they had never been in such a kind and harmonious atmosphere when communicating with apprentices as they were at this moment!

They seemed to be separated by a sad thick barrier from the direct disciples of the Yang family.

Some people are polite and kind to others, not because he likes you, but because his upbringing is high enough.

"Cao Shixiong Hu, Cao Shixiong Xiang, Cao Shixiong Liang."

The third young master Zhao was the first to step forward to say hello. The status of a direct disciple is higher than that of an apprentice. No matter how long the apprentice has been in the hall, he must call Liang Qu Cao Shixiong.

Seeing that the richest person among the apprentices acted like this, the rest had to step forward to say hello one after another.

This group of people last night had no exceptions, all standing on the side watching the good show with playful eyes, but now they bowed and saluted him one after another.

When Liang Qu nodded slightly, he suddenly realized something.

So, thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, is this feeling?

"Ashui is so majestic."

"A man should be like this!"

Li Libo and Chen Jiechang in the corner of the flower bed saw Liang Qu's majestic style and were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

The two tried their best to suppress their joy and stepped forward to say hello after everyone had paid their respects.

But after asking, looking at Liang Qu's gorgeous clothes and waist token, the two who had a stomach full of words to say suddenly got stuck, and their throats seemed to be blocked by something.

Xiang Zhangsong turned his eyes left and right and said: "You guys talk first. Hu Qi and I will go to see the situation of the apprentices. You come over later, and Hu Qi will teach you how to break the skin barrier."

After the two left, Liang Qu took out a wooden box and shook it: "Eat?"

Li Libo saw the words on the bag. He didn't know the characters, but he recognized the three characters Wufangzhai.

The best pastry shop in Pingyang Town, every time he passed by, he could always hear people talking about it nearby. Over time, Li Libo recognized these three characters.

But he had never bought it once. The threshold there was high. Obviously, an old lady in gorgeous clothes could cross it, but for him, it was like a high wall that was difficult to cross. He hesitated: "Wufangzhai?"

"Hmm, specifically brought for you, as a celebration of me becoming Master Yang's disciple."

"It's not cheap, right?" Chen Jiechang obviously also knew the weight in the box and was embarrassed to reach out.

"Take it."

"This..."

"Take it!"

The same conversation as last night was staged again. A sense of trance hit the two's hearts, as if they saw the figure standing still and covered in blood under the moonlight.

Hearing that sentence again, I alone am enough! I alone will defeat all of you, all of you!

Coming back to his senses, their hands had already unconsciously opened the packaging.

Liang Qu mocked: "Hahaha, what's so embarrassing? Look at your bear appearance. Li Libo, I didn't see you embarrassed when you were pulling meat last time."

The vague barrier melted like ice and snow in the laughter, and Li Libo and Chen Jiechang also laughed.

Li Libo's eyes were red. He stuffed a whole piece of sweet crispy cake into his mouth: "Hmm, really fragrant. I also wanted to taste what the pastries in Wufangzhai taste like before, but I never had the chance. Hmm, really fragrant."

Chen Jiechang took out a piece and tasted it in small bites, slowly: "In the future, in Yixing City, Liang Qu, you are the first one, a famous big man."

"In the future, Ashui will be Water Brother, Master Liang, maybe he can buy a big mansion and raise a little maid?"

"Look at your promise, you must be going to be an official and take the martial arts exam!"

"Are you trying to be against me on purpose?"

"I want to say, this is all Ashui's upright victory by his own ability, which is deserved!"
