Chapter IX, The New Wen Dao System(1/2)
Listening to the constant wailing sounds, Li Mu secretly felt very grateful. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough and pulled the naughty child out in time, the five brothers would be punished now.
On the contrary, Li Song, who was very nervous, did not realize the seriousness of the problem and was gloating at the moment.
"Strange, they have three people, why are there only two people calling now?
Listening to the sound, it seems that it is Lao Si and Xiao Eleven. It is rare that Xiao Jiu's little face escaped?"
After listening carefully, Li Mu also found the problem. It was obvious that three people were beaten, but why were there only two people wailing? Could that cheap ninth brother is a tough guy?
You should know that getting beaten is also a skill. According to the experience summarized by the two over the years, as long as the father is not cheap, the more fierce the father calls, the lighter the servants will be.
There is a difference between master and servant. Unless it is forced, no servant is willing to offend the young master in the mansion.
But if everyone wants to deal with the matter, they have to cooperate with the beaten person. They must spread the wailing sounds so that the Marquis and his wife can hear them before they can let the water go.
At this time, you are a tough guy, so wait for your butt to bloom! If you don’t make a sound, it will be the turn of the executioner to be in trouble.
"Ah! It hurts so much..."
Sure enough, as Li Mu expected, the cheap ninth brother could not withstand the pain caused by the board and then started to wail.
Unfortunately, it was too late to wail at this time. In order to avoid being punished, the executioner did not dare to continue to let go of the water.
"There is a voice, but Lao Jiu should be in trouble this time. After this board is over, I guess he can't get out of bed for a month!"
Li Mu said unscrupulously. He had no idea that when traveling with time travelers, he had no thoughts of seeing his fellow villagers and tears.
According to the experiences summarized by reading countless times in the past life, few of the protagonists of the time traveler are easy to share.
Fortunately, this cheap ninth brother shouted in a brainless manner: "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young man poor!"
Otherwise, Li Mu would not be able to help but take action first and kill this problem in advance.
"You're thinking too simple for a month. Xiaojiu doesn't know martial arts. He has to lie down for at least three months with his body.
Now those slaves are really fighting, and they are almost at the utmost intensity of my father beating me. With my years of experience in being beaten, Xiaojiu is going to be miserable this time!
Not only Xiaojiu, but also Lao Si and Xiao Shiyi will be implicated by him in this wave. I guess he will have to lie there for ten days and half a month. Now someone is fighting, and others dare not let it go too far!"
Looking at the proud naughty child, Li Mu couldn't help but want to beat him up. Li Song's expression now was so worthy of beating.
However, Li Mu has also learned the lethality of the protagonist. The fourth and Eleven did nothing, but were both implicated because they were punished together.
If you get too close to the protagonist, wouldn’t you be cheated to death sooner or later?
For the sake of my own safety and for the happy life of the rice worm, it seems that I should send this cheap ninth brother away as soon as possible.
...
As it turns out, both Li Mu brothers underestimated the protagonist's strength in vitality. The fourth and Eleven, who were beaten together, were lying on the bed, and the cheap ninth brother jumped around first.
Looking at the thin piece of white paper in his hand, after adding a poem, it weighed dozens of pounds. Li Mu knew what the cheap ninth brother would rely on next.
The "literary spirit" has come out, and maybe the mission of this time traveler is to spread: the literary cultivation system.
Using the new version of Ziwei Doushu that he developed, Li Mu began to calculate with the help of jade discs.
However, the object of calculation is not Li Fan, who has a great background, but uses this literary poem as a medium to calculate the literary cultivation system.
After a while, Li Mu said intimately: No, the Great Zhou is going to be cold!
The cultivation of literary and martial arts and immortals are different. They are completely attached to humanity and are naturally far beyond other systems due to humanity.
According to the results of Li Mu's calculations, the literary and Taoist system will be divided into sixth ranks: scholars, juren, jinshi, great scholars, sub-saints, and saints.
Corresponding to martial arts: acquired, innate, celestial beings, golden elixirs, primordial spirits, and immortals.
Immortal Tao: Qi training, foundation building, real people, Yin gods, Yang gods, and immortal gods.
Compared with martial arts and immortal arts, although the practice of literary arts cannot lead to immortality, it is better because everyone can practice, which is nothing more than a matter of achievement.
Once this realm system is promoted, scholars will change the embarrassing situation of being powerless. Even if they do not rely on the power of national destiny, they can gain the strength to compete with martial arts and immortals.
The most important thing is the power of immortality and martial arts. Each of them is a powerful force that takes thousands of years of hard practice to gain, and a mere decades of literary monks is enough.
Once the strength of the civil servant group increases greatly, the balance of the Great Zhou court will inevitably be broken. Once the two major groups of the new and old groups fight, the Great Zhou, which has accumulated countless contradictions, is difficult not to explode.
If you create such a protagonist, it is obvious that all sentient beings in the world have suffered for a long time, or that the human world has suffered for a long time, and a revolution is urgently needed.
Humanity is fickle, how can we tolerate an immortal dynasty for thousands of years?
Perhaps the Great Zhou of that year did promote the development of humanity, but their existence has become a stumbling block that hinders the evolution of humanity.
No one knows how many sins are hidden behind the Great Zhou Empire, which has been passed down for more than 9,000 years. Anyway, Li Mu knows that people's livelihood is really painful now.
As the ten thousand years approaches, it is the time when the Great Zhou Empire is under the test of heaven and earth. If humanity wants to initiate the reform of the tripod, now is the best opportunity.
The three disasters of heaven, earth and man are in harmony. If the Great Zhou can resist the past, the fortune of the country will be obtained again after thousands of years.
Perhaps for the way of heaven, as long as it is not against the will of heaven, no matter which dynasty rule, it will be the same, and it can evolve normally anyway.
But humanity is not good, and the completely solidified Great Zhou Empire shows no sign of progress.
This was the case a thousand years ago, and it was the case two thousand years ago. If there were no accidents, the Great Zhou Dynasty would not change in ten thousand years.
For vested interest groups, since they can continue their wealth and honor by maintaining the status quo, why should they sacrifice their own interests to make changes?
Perhaps it is not only Wendao, but also Humandao will continue to push hands next. After all, there are too many powerful powers bound to the Great Wall.
If this problem cannot be solved, even if the Great Zhou Empire collapses, a new Great Zhou Empire will soon appear, and then continue its previous rule.
Should I take a line?
After hesitating for a while, Li Mu decided to give up. Such a thousand-year change, betting before uncertainty about the outcome is a sign of getting tired of living.
As a cautious person, of course, you must wait and wait until the situation is clear before deciding whether to join this game.
...
After dragging his tired body and enduring the pain, he completed a masterpiece again, and found that the only manuscript of poetry that he wrote with the added bonus of the text was gone. Li Fan couldn't help asking:
"Xiao Lu, why are the words I wrote missing?"
He clearly remembered that he just asked the maid to deal with the failed work, but did not let his finished product be moved.
Although these words are not valuable to him, the first work with literary bonus still has commemorative significance.
The little maid said with confidence: "Sold it!"
Judging from that attitude, there was no guilt at all.
"How could you sell my words?"
Li Fan couldn't help but question.
Although Li Fan has accepted this little girl who depends on her life after spending time together, he is still very dissatisfied with her own actions.
After looking at Li Fan, the little maid directly pulled her finger and made up for him: "Young Master, look at the fact that I have spent a total of 56 taels, five taels, four cents to buy medicine for you in recent days.
I spent another 500000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
All the 00s are added up. In less than two months, you spent a total of 78,900 cents and six cents. I am not wrong, right?"
Li Fan, who had no idea about silver, nodded immediately. The little maid asked him for the above expenses.
Seeing that the confirmation was made, the little maid's arrogance rose a little again and said cautiously: "That's right. Master, don't forget that your monthly rate is only five taels of silver.
You have been squandering all the money we have accumulated over the past ten years.
If you don’t find a way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, you will have no money to buy medicines and supplements. Even if you use up these pens, ink, paper and inkstones, you will have no money to buy them.
If I hadn't been clever, I would have exchanged your decorative words for five taels of silver. You would have to go out to borrow money to live now, or could you be able to hold your face and reach out to your aunt?"
After listening to the little maid's explanation, Li Fan completely lost his temper. Is it a hero who made him ask for money from the woman who wished he could kill him that day, and he would not do it if he beat him to death.
"Not that, I am the prince of the Hou Mansion after all, why are I so poor? Is there a deficit in the finances of the Hou Mansion?"
It’s not that Li Fan thought so. The original owner has been used to being bullied since he was a child, and has developed a spirit of not daring to care about anything or asking about anything.
In terms of money, there is no concept at all. All the little maids in front of you are taking care of. Otherwise, how could ordinary maids dare to be so presumptuous in front of their masters?
When he looked at his young master, he seemed to feel that his IQ was insulted. The little maid shook her head dissatisfiedly and said, "It's not that the mansion is poor, but that you are poor alone.
According to the rules of the Hou Mansion, after you reach the age of ten, you will issue it according to the level of martial arts cultivation every month.
The first floor of the acquired level is five taels, the second floor is ten taels, the third floor is fifteen taels... and so on, the ninth floor of the acquired level can get forty-five taels per month, and the legitimate son doubles directly.
In addition to monthly procedures, various material subsidies are also issued according to cultivation. Your situation is special, but the wife will give you a special permission to allow you to have a monthly procedure of five taels.
Five taels of silver per month are our full expenses. Although there may be some rewards during festivals, it will only be a piece of cloth if it falls on your head."
Now that Li Fan understood, he finally knew that there was only a little maid in his room. It was not that the waiter's house would not distribute it, but that the servant's expenses were included in the monthly bill according to the rules of the mansion.
With the monthly payment of this five taels of silver, it would be good to be able to support a maid after deducting your daily expenses.
Fortunately, I don’t have any money to wait for the meal in the mansion, otherwise Li Fan would be very suspicious of whether he could grow up to this big age.
Even for a piece of cloth every year, Li Fan suspected that it was for the sake of his family's face and gave it to him to make clothes.
If you don’t have money, you can find a way to make money. As for changing the monthly system of Houfu, Li Fan thinks he doesn’t have that ability.
"By the way, who did you sell your word "王"
Five taels of silver pay the daily expenses of two people, and they can also make some balances, and Li Fan has a preliminary understanding of the purchasing power of silver.
