Chapter 247 The Right Housekeeper
The envoy from Star City left angrily.
The housekeeper looked at Jiang Yan, hesitant to speak.
Still too young!
Although the Star City has only been developed in the past one or two hundred years.
But momentum is picking up.
If you refuse to cooperate with the other party, let alone doing business in the future, I am afraid it will be difficult to enter their territory.
Obviously such a good opportunity, but did not grasp it.
what a shame!
But from this point of view, should he also consider changing masters?
Just when the Fang Steward's thoughts were diverging, Jiang Yan's voice suddenly sounded: "Fang Steward, you are responsible for the planting tasks on the territory these years!"
"Yes, my lord." The housekeeper said after recovering.
"You seem to be very active. Did you find the messenger?" Jiang Yan asked.
"It was indeed me who contacted, but it was also the original idea of Xingxiang City. I happened to meet a blind cat and a dead mouse." The housekeeper laughed dryly.
At first he thought he had made a great contribution, but Jiang Yan made the envoy go away in anger.
Their lord is really impulsive and reckless.
Without the help of other territories, do you really think that your position as the lord can be secure?
"I heard that it is your suggestion to let the villagers be self-sufficient and no longer provide elixir seeds?" Jiang Yan asked with a half-smile.
Hearing this, the butler's heart skipped a beat.
"This is also what the acting city lord asked me to do..." the housekeeper hurriedly lowered his head and said.
Now that the medicine fields in the territory are deserted, he is actually responsible for most of them.
In previous years, he had received too many kickbacks when he purchased elixir planting and birth-stimulating potions, and he was afraid that Wei Tianze would pursue them.
In addition to that period of time, Wei Tianze was very short of money.
He proposed to stock those villagers directly.
In this way, he will have enough time to make up his bad debts.
Who knew that it was this decision that completely paralyzed Jianglongshan's elixir industry.
And it needs a lot of money to restart.
Now that Jiang Yan is investigating, the housekeeper is only panicked.
Who on earth broke the news to Jiang Yan?
No wonder Jiang Yan has been refusing to see him.
It turned out that someone was playing tricks inside!
"Really!" Jiang Yan smiled coldly.
Naturally, Wei Qing took the initiative to explain these things.
Moreover, the day Jiang Yan first came to the City Lord's Mansion, the housekeeper happened to be out of the City Lord's Mansion.
So he didn't suffer from the curse of malicious backlash.
But for Jiang Yan, it doesn't matter whether there is malicious backlash.
Anyway, he doesn't intend to leave this kind of waste in the City Lord's Mansion!
Before the housekeeper could speak, Jiang Yan continued: "By the way, I still like some young faces. The housekeeper can find another job in the future. I won't keep you here."
The housekeeper stood where he was, his face turned blue and pale.
Although he had the idea of not wanting to work in Jianglong Mountain just now, but bringing it up by himself and being driven away by others are completely two concepts.
And he also wanted to take advantage of this time to get some more benefits before running away.
As a result, Jiang Yan did not intend to give him this chance.
The housekeeper rolled his eyes and said unwillingly: "My lord, you want me to leave. I have no complaints, but I have worked in Jianglong Mountain for hundreds of years. Since the former lord left, I have never complained." I have been paid wages, should my lord make up the money?"
"What? As a lord, do you have to pay extra wages to the leaders?" Jiang Yan turned his head and glanced at Li Yan and asked.
"Returning to the master, only the citizens who enter the battlefield of the ten thousand realms and bring actual benefits to the territory will be rewarded with cultivation resources and spirit stones. However, Jianglong Mountain has not entered the battlefield of the ten thousand realms in the past few hundred years." Yan respectfully replied.
"No, no, I'm not a combat member. The former lord came to me just to let me manage the work of the city lord's mansion and some territories, and the former lord would pay me a salary of 1,000 to 5,000 a month. Wait..." The housekeeper hurriedly argued.
"You also said that you are the former lord. After the former lord left, didn't you have already escaped from the control of the Dragon Subduing Order? Speaking of which, you are no longer the leader of Jianglong Mountain!" Li Yan glanced at Fang Steward lightly and said .
"Well, what Li Yan said makes sense. If there is a grievance, there is a debt. You should go to the acting city lord Wei Tianze to ask for the money. After all, you have been working for him for so many years, and it has nothing to do with me. " Jiang Yan said with a smile.
Li Yan is indeed reliable.
In a few words, he threw the pot out.
And it makes sense.
Such a person is the right butler in his mind!
The housekeeper's face was full of misery.
It seems that with Jiang Yan, he can't get any benefits.
Simply say that he is no longer from Jianglongshan, and all his requests can be dismissed.
The point is that he has no place to reason.
After all, there is indeed no connection between him and the Dragon Subduing Order.
"My lord, since you have determined that I am not from Jianglong Mountain, then I have nothing to say, but your way of handling things is too radical, and sooner or later it will be chilling. I have been loyal to the territory for hundreds of years. , but it can't be worth a few gossips from others, alas..." The housekeeper sighed heavily, and then walked out of the living room very disappointed.
"Send someone to follow him, don't let him come into contact with anyone in the territory, and don't let him take away the things in the territory." Watching the back of the housekeeper leaving, Jiang Yan ordered.
"Yes." Li Yan responded immediately.
"By the way, you will take over the housekeeper's job in the future. If you are too busy, you are allowed to find a few younger brothers. You can look for candidates now." Jiang Yan said.
"I'll take over the housekeeper's job?" Li Yan was slightly taken aback.
"What, no confidence?" Jiang Yan asked.
"No, this is my duty." Li Yan didn't have much other emotions.
For him, as long as he can work for Jiang Yan, it doesn't matter what position he is in.
...
When Li Yan also left, Jiang Yan looked towards the window, "Come out, it's not shameful."
As soon as the words fell, a blue figure rushed in from the window.
When he knew that Star City had sent people over, Jiang Yan called the Doom Siren back, just in case.
But it seems that there is no chance of doing it.
"You human beings are really interesting. Even though things are so simple, they are so complicated. In our place, whoever has the biggest fist has the right to speak. For example, in the Star City, there was someone who annexed Jianglong Mountain before you came. Ability, but wait until now, I am afraid they will never have another chance in the future."
The Misfortune Siren came and sat down beside Jiang Yan, looked at the fruits on the table, picked up one at random, tasted it, and then put it back without taste.
"You should know everything about Jianglong Mountain, right? I'm going to go into the mountain to have a look, and find a few monsters to practice with!" Jiang Yan said, looking at the little guy beside him.
"What do you think? I even visited more than half of the underground, let alone other places!" Doom Siren tilted her head and said.
"Then find me a suitable place to practice. I want to see where my current limit is." Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes and said.
After taking that bottle of Jiuxuan Pill, his current cultivation base is at the peak of the first level of the initial mirror.
Both the upper limit of spiritual power in the body and the speed of gathering divine power far exceeded his expectations.
He also wanted to know how much difference there was between the initial mirror and the apprenticeship period!
...
Riding a shuttle, Jiang Yan entered the interior of Jianglong Mountain following the guidance of the Misfortune Siren.
In the fringe area, you can occasionally see some villagers hunting in the mountains.
However, as it gradually deepened, the population gradually became scarcer.
"Did you see the canyon below? There is only one kind of monster here, the rock core. Form your own body, you will instinctively attack other creatures, and most importantly, the rock cores will not appear in groups, which is very suitable for you to practice your hands."
The Siren of Doom sat behind Jiang Yan, looking at the canyon road below.
"How is the strength?" Jiang Yan asked.
Such monsters are called elemental creatures or energy creatures in the game.
Difficult to entangle and hard to kill unless hitting the core directly.
The doom siren thinks highly of him.
"This area is mostly apprentice-level and initial mirrors, and the highest will not exceed the Kaiyuan realm. I will follow you. What are you afraid of? When you encounter the rock core of the Kaiyuan realm, I will help you solve it." Doom Siren patted said the chest.
Hearing this, Jiang Yan felt relieved.
He landed the shuttle car on a slightly flat terrain.
At first glance, he didn't find any rocky cores in the canyon.
But it's normal to think about it.
According to the Doom Siren, the body of the rock core is just a crystallization, and its body is entirely composed of rocks.
Putting it in such an environment is simply the best camouflage.
Jiang Yan put the shuttle car away, and then took out the Blue Moon Knife.
The sea monster of doom consciously retreated into the distance.
Unless Jiang Yan's life is in danger, she will not help.
Jiang Yan turned his wrist, tested the feel of the Blue Moon Knife, and immediately walked into the canyon.
This canyon is still on the edge of Jianglong Mountain.
But I don't know why, but there are few people.
"boom!"
At this moment, Jiang Yan suddenly felt a slight vibration under his feet.
He quickly dodges.
In the next second, a monster made of rock emerged from the ground.
It was a snake two or three meters long, and its whole body was made up of small gravel.
Judging from the aura on it, it should be just a ninth-level apprentice-level monster.
Although it seems that he is only one level behind him, the realm is completely different.
Jiang Yan didn't inject spiritual power into the weapon, and directly slashed at it with his physical strength.
Using its tail as a fulcrum, the rock snake swayed violently, easily dodging Jiang Yan's attack.
At the same time, the snake head wiped Jiang Yan's weapon, and bit Jiang Yan's neck fiercely at lightning speed.
Jiang Yan's pupils shrank, he didn't care about hiding his clumsiness, his whole body's spiritual power was activated, and he split the rock snake into two with a backhand.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yan's knife did not hit the core.
The gravel fell on the ground and was absorbed in a blink of an eye, forming a body again.
This time, the rocky core turned into a small beast with four legs.
However, probably because it sensed the dangerous aura coming from Jiang Yan, it immediately burrowed into the ground after regaining the ability to move freely.
Jiang Yan stabbed down with a knife, but came up empty.
Behind him, the brisk laughter of the sea monster of doom came.
"Jiang Yan, you can't underestimate these guys. They can change at any time, and their attack methods are changeable. Don't just perfunctory others just because they are not as powerful as you. Be careful of capsized in the gutter!"
Jiang Yan's expression was awkward, a little embarrassed.
Originally, he was full of confidence, but he was slapped in the face when he first arrived.
Fortunately, the Kraken of Doom is one of his own.
To lose face is to lose face.
"Also, don't forget that you have practiced Nether Art, and you can improve your cultivation by absorbing the inner alchemy or crystallization of monsters. In other words, you are the nemesis of monsters. You have to do it and let monsters see you If you are afraid, if you see you, you will lose the ability to resist, then the Nether Art you have cultivated is almost considered a great success!" The Doom Sea-Monster continued.
"I'd like to borrow your words." Jiang Yan knew what level he was, and to achieve the effect that the doomed sea monster said, he had to go to the Sky Profound Realm or the Lihe Realm at least.
But the words of the doom sea monster reminded him.
Nether Kung Fu was born with the ability to sense the inner alchemy and crystals of monsters, relying on one point, it should not be difficult for him to kill the rock core.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan continued to walk deep into the canyon.
Not long after, he met a big guy.
It was a rock giant with a height of more than ten meters.
Before Jiang Yan approached, it was just a pile of rocks scattered in the canyon, and it couldn't be seen that it had anything to do with monsters.
But when he passed this pile of rocks, it instantly formed a complete body.
The whole process takes less than five seconds.
And in the process of forming, it has already launched an attack on Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan almost wiped the opponent's fist, then turned around and slashed horizontally, cutting off part of the rock.
Only barely dodged a blow.
"Huh~" Jiang Yan panted slightly.
These rocky cores are unreasonable for sneak attacking people.
The way of composing the body is also strange and strange, and it can be arbitrary.
Moreover, the strength of the giant in front of him is around the third level of the initial mirror.
He was two levels higher than him.
But he didn't intend to seek help from the Sea-Monster of Doom.
I have already lost someone once just now, and this time I must get my face back.
Jiang Yan quickly distanced himself from the rock giant, and immediately performed Nether Art.
His senses suddenly became sharper.
At the same time, he discovered a different energy fluctuation in the abdomen of the rock giant.
Jiang Yan's eyes lit up.
This must be where the core of the rock lies.
The speed of the rock giant was extremely fast, and even the ground was shaking as it walked.
Flexibility is obviously not enough.
Relying on the terrain of the canyon, Jiang Yan kept circling with the rock giant.
Seeing that the distance was getting closer, he immediately poured spiritual power into the Blue Moon Knife.
"Broken Star Sword!"
The condensed sword energy directly penetrated the rock giant's abdomen.
The giant's body also collapsed.
