novelThen isn't being calm but stupid
| ← Ch.110 | Ch.112 → |
Under the leadership of Zhang Tianxian, Lin Fan and the others slowly understood the situation of Martial Path Mountain.
Regret started to spread through his heart.
His cousin's actions were just so terrible; he should have said that he had money. Why did he even have to hide it?
Were there problems with his brain to want to rebuild Martial Path Mountain?
He just wanted to spend some time outside and when the time was right to head back to You City to enjoy.
The other things had nothing to do with him at all.
However, the current situation made it impossible.
Zhang Tianxian took a two hundred silver note from his cousin to search for workers.
On a rough estimate, the renovation of Martial Path Mountain would at least need a thousand silver.
This was a terrifying estimate!
However, he had no choice.
The houses were too broken, and there were simply too many places that had to be renovated.
That night, people couldn't stay on Martial Path Mountain as there was nothing there at all. There were only a few wooden planks in the room. What was Zhang Tianxian even doing? Even if it closed down, shouldn't there at least be a place to sleep?
Their resting location tonight was quite decent for them. Lin Fan and the others had planned to get some sleep on the carriage.
However, he couldn't.
He had incurred their wrath and gained three hundred rage points from them so he could only bring them to the inn to sleep.
For them to not be able to take a little bit of hardship, how would they even manage to rebuild Martial Path Mountain?
Regret. Disappointment.
Liang Yongqi really wanted to scold Lin Fan. This fellow was just too much. If he just wanted to pass the night, then just do so.
However, he wanted them to pass the night while he and his cousin went to the inn to sleep. Was he treating them as fools?
He had never seen such a shameless person before.
Lin Fan looked at the round moon in the night sky and sighed, "I want to go home."
Only after he left You City did he understand how much he missed home. Although he had just came out, he missed home a lot.
Daytime.
Zhang Tianxian was really efficient. It was good to have money as he was able to use it to find many good helpers in Jiang City.
Everyone was fighting for his business.
The news of Martial Path Mountain reopening also spread quickly.
Many people rubbed their hands and were tempted.
To the commoners in Jiang City, it was a good thing to be able to enter Martial Path Mountain. Not only did they provide food and lodging, they gave out pocket money too. One could learn some martial arts at the same time. Where would one even get such a good deal?
Only in Martial Path Mountain could one get so lucky.
Martial Path Mountain.
Zhang Tianxian stood with his arms behind his back. Behind him were many commoners, "Sect Leader, many people came. Martial Path Mountain is officially reopened."
He was now pumped up.
Although he was already in his middle ages, he had an unwilling heart that was still beating and brimming with life.
To Lin Fan, he wasn't renovating but just throwing away money.
Yuan Tianchu and Liang Yongqi acted like it didn't concern them.
They weren't affected, and this whole matter had nothing to do with them.
It was indeed the case.
Yuan Tianchu thought that his goal of coming out was to understand Lin Fan.
Liang Yongqi felt that he came out just to eat and wait for death. That his family didn't need him, his father didn't need him, and he was just useless.
At this moment, there were questions from the commoners.
"Will this new Sect Leader recruit new disciples now that Martial Path Mountain is reopened?"
"That's right, that's right, we all know how to do things and are really diligent."
Lin Fan was scolding them in his heart. With these people, it was no surprise that Zhang Tianxian went bankrupted. Normal civilians treated you as their money bag, so how would the sect even succeed?
To be able to last for so long was already quite amazing.
Zhang Tianxian said excitedly, "Martial Path Mountain is entering its restructuring stage. When the mountain opens, we will naturally recruit disciples."
Lin Fan said, "Are you the Sect Leader, or am I the Sect Leader?"
He just wanted to slap Zhang Tianxian.
Couldn't he just keep quiet?
"You are Sect Leader, Sect Leader." Zhang Tianxian smiled. He was a little helpless and couldn't adapt to it so quickly.
Lin Fan coughed, "You all can enter my Martial Path Mountain, but why don't you all help me renovate it for free? When you enter, we will teach you martial arts for you to be an expert. How about that?"
As expected, when he said that, the commoners looked at him with their mouths agape.
Oh my god!
To think that someone could even say that!
Martial Path Mountain's Sect Leader was too shameless.
To rip off normal people. No future, this place had no future at all!
"Sect Leader, we were joking. Don't take us seriously."
"That's right, that's right, we are really busy so why would we have time to learn martial arts?"
Hearing that Martial Path Mountain didn't give out money and they had to even repair it for free, no one would agree unless one had brain problems.
Lin Fan shook his head; they were just too practical. He just said this casually, and they were all frightened to such an extent.
He had never heard of needing to give allowance when recruiting disciples.
Were you teaching people or hiring people?
Jiang City.
Huang Family.
Back Courtyard.
"Young Master, Martial Path Mountain is reopening. That Zhang Tianshan is back." A servant hurriedly reported.
A man was practicing calligraphy diligently, his words seemed really random and all over the place, a true accident of the calligraphy world.
"Scoff!" The man scoffed in rage and held the brush.
"Good."
The people around all clapped their hands and passed him some tea, "Young Master's calligraphy is decent, one of the top in the current generation."
Huang Boren was really delighted and felt good that people were commenting him. After drinking the tea, he looked at the servant that hurried over, "What did you just say?"
"Young Master, Martial Path Mountain reopened. They found many people to renovate it." The servant reported.
That despicable Zhang Tianshan, he rented Martial Path Mountain for so long and didn't pay money before running away right away.
Who knew where he went.
"En?" Huang Boren said, "What? He dared to come back to reopen it? Let's go and take a look. If he doesn't pay the rent to me, I will smash his Martial Path Mountain."
He was the oldest young master in the Huang Family.
His father's health wasn't good and was resting, so he was in charge.
"Oh right, hang up the words I just wrote."
Before leaving, he turned his head and instructed.
He was in a good mood today and wrote really well, writing a line of great words so he naturally needed to hang it up to admire.
"Yes, Young Master."
To Huang Boren, that Zhang Tianshan wasn't anything good.
They had agreed that year that he would pay rent every year for Martial Path Mountain.
He kept his words at the start.
He paid rent for a few years.
Then he directly ran away and didn't pay any money, causing Huang Boren to rage.
How could there be no trust and honesty between people?
Martial Path Mountain.
Lin Fan looked at the busy people, his heart was really calm. He had no sense of belonging to Martial Path Mountain.
Who would use this place after they repaired it?
He wouldn't stay here.
The person who got this place would be very lucky.
He was furious in his heart. What was up with his cousin? He wasn't like this in the past, why did he suddenly become so dumb?
"Sect Leader, do you see the future prosperity of Martial Path Mountain?" Zhang Tianxian said.
Lin Fan said, "No, I only see that my wallet is shrinking."
"Haiz, money is just an external object, so why care about it so much? Your Father also gave me tens of thousands of riches. I remember what he said, money is the source of all evil, and it is useless to leave it on you. Even till now I am unable to reach such a level of enlightenment." Zhang Tianxian said.
Lin Fan looked at Zhang Tianxian with a weird expression, was what he said true?
That isn't called reaching a high level of enlightenment.
That was being foolish.
