Chapter 69 Student Loans (Part 1)
Tang Jie didn't know how he got back to Tao Ranju.
After getting rid of the congratulatory villagers and declining their invitation to purchase, Tang Jie walked back step by step with the tiger carcass in his arms on the pretext of being tired from taking risks.
Along the way, countless students were attracted to stop and watch, pointing and pointing, but what Tang Jie heard was the roar of the tiger, and what appeared in front of his eyes was the affectionate and helpless glance of the tigress before it died.
It wasn't until he returned to his residence that Tang Jie sat down on the ground weakly.
He released the little tiger from the beast card.
Maybe it was too long to stay in that closed space, but as soon as the little tiger came out, it angrily scratched Tang Jie with its paws, and then saw its mother lying there motionless.
Maybe he thought his mother was asleep, so the little guy circled around his mother, and from time to time he hugged his mother with his head, trying to wake her up.
Finally tired, he fell down beside the tiger carcass, and just fell asleep in a daze.
Yiyi got out of Tang Jie's arms, climbed onto Tang Jie's neck, hugged Tang Jie and said softly, "Brother..."
Her voice is low.
What happened today was also a huge shock to this little girl.
"En." Tang Jie responded.
He looked at the tiger carcass, then at the still ignorant little tiger, grabbed Yiyi from his body, put him next to the little tiger, and said, "Yiyi, can you promise me something?"
"Well, brother, tell me, Yiyi will do everything."
"From now on, Xiaohu is your younger brother, promise to take good care of him."
"Oh!" Yi Yi replied crisply, "I will take good care of Brother Hu."
"Very good." Tang Jie patted Yiyi's head: "Bao'er is still young and doesn't understand a lot of things. You are an older sister. You can't argue with your younger brother about things in the future."
Yi Yi continued to nod seriously.
Tang Jie smiled, then stood up and walked out.
"Brother, where are you going?" Yiyi asked.
"Go get some food for Xiaohu," Tang Jie replied.
No matter how heavy the heart is, life must go on.
—————————————
The news of Tang Jie killing the tiger spread quickly.
After setting a new record, Tang Jie's name once again made a sensation in the academy.
Cai Junyang came to look for it that day, and laughed when he saw Tang Jie: "You are so fierce, you dare to go to the Tiger Roaring Peak to kill a tiger, that is a psychic top-rank monster!"
"It's a low-grade psychic. What I killed was a tigress, and it was a tigress that had just given birth to cubs not long ago. It was weak and weak, and it was much easier to kill than ordinary monsters." Tang Jie corrected.
"But after all, he was killed under the eyes of high-grade monsters!" Cai Junyang emphasized, and couldn't help sighing when he said this: "Tiger Roaring Peak, that's Tiger Roaring Peak! How many students dare not even go up. Every time you hunt a tiger, you have to gather hundreds of people to dare to go there. In this way, most of the time, you lose a lot and hurt countless people. You dare to go up to the Tiger Roaring Peak by yourself, even if you kill only a tigress, you are still proud of the academy , I, Cai Junyang, feel ashamed!"
Cai Junyang is actually a very self-confident person, it is not easy to see who he obeys, but this time he is really convinced.
It's no wonder that if heroes are judged by strength, the Lingquan rank is only the lowest rank for cultivators, and there are many people who are stronger than them.
But in terms of courage, there are not many people who dare to do what others don't.
Creating records only shows strength, while going alone in Hushan shows courage, and the latter is often lacking and more precious than the former, and does not grow with age and strength.
Because of this, not only him, but even Master Xiyue would look at Tang Jie differently.
"From your point of view, it seems that I can raise the price again?" Tang Jie asked with a smile.
"Are you still going up?" Cai Junyang's eyeballs were about to protrude: "I haven't told you what Lin Dongsheng promised, are you going to go up again?"
"Just kidding, I won't raise it this time. By the way, according to your tone, Lin Dongsheng agreed to the seven hundred dollars?"
"I agreed a few days ago, but you were stuck in the gold forging platform and couldn't come out. I searched for you a few times but couldn't find you, so I mobilized everyone to send you news.
In the end, it was not delivered, which made Lin Dongsheng anxious to death. Didn't I just get the news that you came out, and it turned out that the tigress was slaughtered, and you really belonged to it! "
"So that's the case." Tang Jie nodded, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
Here Cai Junyang has already taken out the six hundred coins: "Lin Dongsheng asked me to give it to you, and I will deduct the one hundred you promised."
"I still think I'm greedy, and I didn't see you being polite when I distributed the money." Tang Jie replied angrily, and accepted the money.
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Cai Junyang left. They only agreed to go down the mountain together in two days and go to the Lin's house to pay homage to the old man's birthday. As for the birthday gift, Lin Dongsheng will prepare it himself, and the students just need to come to the door with gifts.
Farewell to Cai Junyang, Tang Jie returned to the room and meditated.
He thought over and over about his plan, weighed all kinds of accidents that might happen, and recorded them one by one for analysis.
Yiyi saw that he was serious, so she wisely didn't bother him, and went to tease the little tiger herself.
The little thing lost his parents and brothers, and he was very uncomfortable at first, and would hiss sadly from time to time.
At this moment, like a real older sister, Yiyi held the little tiger in her arms, patted the little tiger's vest, and spoke adult comforting words in an innocent tone.
Although she has never learned these things, she is self-taught at this moment.
The nib of the pen was rustling on the paper, Tang Jie was still immersed in various accidents that might occur during the execution of the plan, and the countermeasures.
Finally, he found out some problems that had not been found before, and at the same time found out the corresponding solutions.
Looking at the densely packed plan written on the paper, Tang Jie checked it over and over again to confirm that there was nothing missing, and then put away the plan.
He took out the formation diagram and materials, erased the previous formation, and Tang Jie started to make a new formation.
The new formation is not too difficult, and Tang Jie will finish it soon.
After making it, Tang Jie took out the heart-breaking knife and slashed at his wrist, blood gushed out and dripped into the formation.
"What's wrong? Brother." Yiyi was taken aback by Tang Jie, and rushed over.
"It's nothing, just more preparations." Tang Jie replied.
The blood poured into the image and was quickly absorbed, and a red brilliance appeared on the array, radiating the energy of life.
Tang Jie still kept on bleeding.
While bleeding, he also kept pouring in various spiritual fruits obtained from Huxiao Peak.
It wasn't until the entire formation of the formation was almost filled with blood, and a flood of red light and blood gathered, Tang Jie cut off a large piece of meat from his leg and threw it into the formation, then he grabbed the formation and retracted it abruptly. It was quickly closed.
Then his eyes blurred and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Yiyi came over to support him in time: "Brother!"
The little guy stared at Tang Jie with wide eyes, full of concern.
"I'm fine, I'll be fine in a while." Tang Jie smiled at Yiyi.
"Brother, what are you doing? It's scary!"
"It's just some follow-up preparations."
"Brother, are those bad guys hard to deal with?"
"kindness."
"It's harder to deal with than a big tiger?"
"kindness."
"Then let's not fight them, okay?" Yiyi raised her head, looked at Tang Jie and said.
Tang Jie smiled.
He patted Yiyi's head: "Silly girl, I don't want to fight them, but they will come to me. Don't worry, Yiyi, brother can deal with them. Brother will defeat them and kill them. You have to believe Brother, after this battle, we will be clean for a long time. But..."
After hesitating for a while, Tang Jie sat down, picked up Yiyi, and then picked up the little tiger, put them on each side of his body, and then said to Yiyi with a serious face: "But brother may have to go out for a while, can't Take Yiyi with you, we will be separated from Yiyi for a few days."
"No!" Yiyi's eyes turned red, and she threw herself into Tang Jie's arms: "I won't leave my brother!"
As she said that, she burst into tears, hugging Tang Jie's neck, crying very sadly: "Brother, did I make you angry by being disobedient, and you don't want me anymore?"
Tang Jie felt a pain in his heart when he heard that, hugged Yiyi and said: "Silly girl, how is it possible, my brother doesn't want you. It's just that my brother is going to deal with the enemy, you are not suitable to participate."
"I'm not afraid, I want to fight with my brother!" Yiyi shouted.
Tang Jie shook his head: "That can't be done. Yiyi is obedient, after my brother leaves, I need you to take care of Xiaohu. Tell brother, can you take care of Xiaohu and yourself?"
"No, I can't!" Yiyi cried and shouted: "I don't want to leave you, don't, don't just don't!"
Tang Jie was heartbroken by her crying, so he could only pat her on the back and said: "Little idiot, in fact, you can help brother if you are not with him, if you are disobedient, brother will really die. "
Although Yiyi is a child, she has seen life and death after all, has experienced wind and rain, and is a fine creature, much more sensible than ordinary children. When she heard this, she stopped crying immediately, wiped away her tears and asked, sobbing: "What can I do for my brother?"
Looking at the little face that was crying like a flower, Tang Jie smiled: "First of all, you have to save this picture for me..."
He handed the array map to Yiyi, and softly instructed her to do what she needed to do next.
Lying in Tang Jie's arms, the little guy listened more seriously than ever before.
———————————
After explaining to Yiyi, Tang Jie went to see Wei Tianchong first, and after returning the puppet to him, he went around the outer room before going to Lingtai Pavilion.
Seeing Mrs. Shui, Tang Jie stepped forward to say hello.
Mrs. Shui looked at him with a smile: "Good boy, I just came out of the gold forging platform yesterday, and I killed a tigress today, so I am really a master of making trouble."
"It's also thanks to the madam's heart-breaking knife." Tang Jie directly transferred the credit to the heart-breaking knife.
"The baby I gave, I know how much it weighs. After all, you are clever, but you are too adventurous. Forget it, you have done everything, and I say you can't. But in the future, it's better to take it easy , that tiger on the Howling Tiger Peak is no ordinary high-grade demon tiger, so you can't fool it with casual tricks."
"The kid can save it."
"Tell me, what's the matter this time?"
"But I have something to ask Madam for help." Tang Jie handed the tiger carcass to Madam, along with the dissected bear carcasses, wolf carcasses, and materials that were not used before: "First, Madam, please give me an estimate. "
Madam Shui frowned: "If you don't sell these things to Huxiao Village, what are you doing with me?"
Although Lingmiaofang sells materials, it doesn’t collect materials very much, or it doesn’t collect materials from Tiger’s Roaring Valley. The main reason is that the output of Tiger’s Roaring Valley is too worthless, that is, the villagers collect them for processing, and Lingmiaofang mainly sells some materials. More high-end materials and finished products.
However, what Tang Jie harvested this time was mainly the materials on the Tiger Roaring Peak, which were much more valuable than ordinary valleys. Even so, in the eyes of Mrs. Shui, they were barely worth it.
Tang Jie laughed and said, "If Madam accepts it, I'll sell it. If not, I'll use it as collateral."
"Mortage?" Hearing this word, Mrs. Shui was obviously taken aback: "You want to borrow money?"
"Yes, formal loan!" Tang Jie replied.
In this era, the professionalism is not so strong, and many merchants pursue large and complete stores. It is not uncommon for shops to also operate loan business. The same is true for Lingtai Pavilion, but the interest rate is relatively low.
Because this is a shop under the jurisdiction of Xiyue College, it has a certain subsidy nature, so it can be regarded as a student loan.
But even so, not just any student can borrow. They must have a certain performance and have sufficient repayment ability to be eligible to borrow.
With Tang Jie's current reputation and ability, he already has the qualifications to become a customer of Lingmiaofang, and he can be regarded as a potential high-quality customer.
It's just that he really has no reason to borrow money!
At this moment, Mrs. Shui looked at Tang Jie in surprise: "You have no money? What about the 10,000 spiritual coins that the Moon Sect has rewarded you a few days ago?"
"There are still about 8,000. If this batch of goods is disposed of, it is estimated to be 10,000." Tang Jie replied. He spent a lot of money on buying materials and waste equipment, but Cai Junyang sent 600 yuan, which made up for it. After disposing of these goods, he can basically maintain a balance of income and expenditure.
"Then you still borrow money? What are you going to do?"
Tang Jie replied: "The reason why I was able to kill that tigress this time is all thanks to my young master's puppet..."
Tang Jie did not answer Mrs. Shui's question, but first talked about how he hunted and killed the tigress.
According to him, for this hunting, he waited for an opportunity to peek aside, used a puppet to lure the demon tiger away, and then made a sudden attack, and succeeded in assassinating the tigress.
It should be said that this lie is quite reasonable, at least theoretically there is no problem. As for why the monster tiger is so easy to be fooled, and why Tang Jie didn't notice it when he touched it so close, and even gave him time to touch the spirit grass... People are always stupid, so why not let the tiger be stupid?
The advantage of a lie is that as long as it works in theory, it doesn't matter how many problems there are in actual implementation. Anyway, the facts are already there, and you have to believe it or not.
At this moment, he recounted the process of his raid to kill the tiger. Tang Jie said: "After this battle, the boy also found that my trip was really risky, and it was luck that I succeeded. It is a pity that the puppet is ignorant and needs someone to drive it to change, which is not good for luring the enemy too far. It is also thanks to the weakness of the tigress after giving birth that I succeeded in one blow, but was still chased by the demon tiger When I came back, I almost lost my life. After thinking about it, I thought that if I could have a puppet that can be controlled by itself, like the Xuanjia soldier, it would be able to lure the demon tiger farther away. You won't be hurt that badly..."
He had just been bled, and his body was very weak, and his face was still pale. With Madam Shui's eyes, he could see that the "severe injury" was true, but he didn't know that it had nothing to do with the "hard battle".
But after hearing what he said, Madam Shui somewhat understood what he meant: "You want to borrow money to buy a puppet?"
"Yes, a puppet that can accept orders from its master and act on its own, like the Xuanjia soldier."
"That's not cheap. Such a puppet is extremely sophisticated in terms of materials and formation."
"That's why I need to borrow money." Tang Jie replied with a smile.
"How much do you want to borrow?"
"Two hundred thousand."
"Push!" The tea that Mrs. Shui had just brought into her mouth was sprayed out all at once.
