Chapter 111 Luxury(4K)(2/2)
Chai Cuiqiao tilted her head, "What is that?"
"A magical creature that will kneel down and give money wherever it goes. At every dinner, powerful people will give gifts, and it will shock the father-in-law and mother-in-law for a whole year."
Li Ang made a casual remark and said: "This is the first patent fee for soap, toilet soap, and absorbent cotton.
From now on, if the water flows steadily, there will be thousands or tens of thousands of dollars every month,
It depends on how well the soap sells."
"Thousands of dollars every month..."
Chai Cuiqiao's mouth opened in astonishment, as countless flying tickets seemed to be floating in the sky before her eyes.
Li Ang said with a smile: "When you were a child, have you ever thought that if everyone in the country gave me a penny..."
Chai Cuiqiao subconsciously said: "Can you become a rich man?"
"No, the national census can be completed in an instant."
Li Ang curled his lips and rubbed Chai Cuiqiao's hair, "Are there any dishes in the kitchen? Let's cook first. I'll go out and buy some things."
"There are dishes in the kitchen."
Chai Cuiqiao, who was still confused about the definition of national census, nodded, "Master, what are you going to buy?"
Li Ang said naturally: "Of course I have to buy some gold and silver jewelry for my dear first when I have money."
"Eh——"
Chai Cuiqiao blushed and slapped Li Ang on the shoulder, jumping up and down to the kitchen happily.
And Li Ang... took the flight ticket out with some confusion.
He really wants to buy gold and silver.
Tomorrow’s swordsmanship course will be attended by His Majesty the Queen, the Mountain Chief offering wine, and important civil and military ministers. The most important thing is that Xi Yangyu, who is studying to study, is also there.
When Cheng Juxiu returned to Chang'an last time, he already said that Xi Yangyu and Pu Liuxuan did have a deep hatred.
Xi Yangyu deliberately made things difficult for Li Ang when he was taking exams in the Academy. It was also because of Pu Liuxuan's relationship that he hated the whole family.
Li Ang, who was riding on the horse, rubbed his brows with a headache. Xi Yangyu will be in class tomorrow. It’s hard to say whether he will secretly rub the ground -
There are so many ways for Zhuxiao Realm Masters to target new students.
‘There are five paths of Talisman, Technique, Sword, Nian, and Body. The ones I am most talented in are Fu and Nian.
If you want to further your studies in Nianxue, you will inevitably come into contact with Xi Yangyu, the Nianxue Secretary of the Academy.
We can only take one step at a time and see one step at a time.’
Li Ang rode his horse to the West Market and used his flying ticket to go to the gold shop to buy some gold and silver ingots.
I went to the jewelry store again and bought some gold and silver jewelry.
And using the gold and silver ingots I brought, I made an appointment to order specially made precious jewelry.
A total of eighteen thousand guan was spent, and he was escorted all the way back home by the guards of the gold and silver store.
This is what Li Ang came up with to reasonably explain why he loves gold and silver so much - to create characters for himself and Chai Cuiqiao who like expensive luxury goods.
As a scholar-bureaucrat, it’s normal to be extravagant.
‘I am a disciple of the Academy, and I am also the top scorer in the entrance examination. I will be recognized wherever I go, and my every word and deed will be remembered.
Buying some gold and silver secretly and anonymously will arouse suspicion.
It’s better to openly show that you love luxury goods.’
Li Ang returned home with boxes of luxury goods worth thousands of dollars and gave them to Chai Cuiqiao, who was cooking. The latter jumped up happily and fell into Li Ang's arms, letting Li Ang carry her around.
Complete a circle.
"Come down, come down."
Li Ang was afraid that he would be too strong and hurt the other person, so he quickly put Chai Cuiqiao down with a grin on his face, "Are you fatter than before?"
"Eh? Is there any?"
Chai Cuiqiao, who was still holding a cooking spoon in her hand, looked shocked. She looked down at herself and muttered: "I don't feel like it... I couldn't get fat by eating in Zhenzhou before..."
"Maybe the food in Chang'an is more oily."
Li Ang clapped his hands without changing his expression, "Just wear these jewelry when you go to any women's club activities in the future. I will buy more in the future.
Didn't you often say that the ladies in Jinchengfang all wear gold and silver?"
"Well, I was just joking..."
Chai Cuiqiao hesitantly put down the cooking spoon, looked at the valuable jewelry on the table, pursed her lips and said, "Master, I think it's better for us to be more frugal.
Those ladies and ladies only became friends with me because of your face in the first place.
I wear a Xiuyu bracelet, and they praise me non-stop.
Don’t buy me such expensive jewelry in the future.”
"No, it would be detrimental to the dignity of the academy if you still have to live with your money."
Li Ang said without changing his expression and his heart not beating, "It's enough to finish cooking this dish. I'll go back to the bedroom and lie down for a while."
"Yeah."
Chai Cuiqiao watched Li Ang's back disappear around the corner, took a deep breath, and carefully poked the corners of the exquisite and expensive jewelry with her fingers, fearing that the oil on her palms would smear on them.
When Li Ang returned to the bedroom, he let out a breath, took out a large box of gold and silver and put it on the table. Listening to Chai Cuiqiao's low voice in the kitchen, he felt a strange sense of guilt.
Like the kind of scumbag who buys expensive bags and clothes for his mistress, and then goes home and gives his wife a discounted lipstick...
"What are you thinking about."
Li Ang shook his head and threw the messy thoughts out of his mind.
Ink silk is neither gold nor silver, nor iron nor copper, nor even organic matter.
And Chai Cuiqiao...because we have been together for so long, it has been difficult to locate her.
"Let's think about how to deal with tomorrow's swordsmanship class first."
Li Ang poured the gold and silver on the table, released spiritual energy, controlled the ink threads to pierce the skin, and slowly swallowed the gold and silver, "I hope this will be useful."
The gold and silver ingots worth 15,000 guan were quickly depleted and reduced by Mo Si's devouring.
The ink silk itself is gradually dyed with a layer of dark golden color that is difficult to detect.
"It feels like the spiritual energy is flowing more smoothly?"
When all the gold and silver on the table were gone, Li Ang clenched his palms uncertainly and pushed gently towards the bedroom window not far ahead from a distance.
Wow——
The breeze started to blow and I opened the bedroom window.
"The spiritual energy comes out of the body...Is this the hiding place?"
Li Ang glanced at his palm in shock. The ink on his palm did not retract under the skin like before.
Instead, it covers the surface of the palm, like...a pitch black glove.
An idea suddenly popped into Li Ang's mind. He took out the dagger from his waist and stabbed lightly into his palm.
Dang——
The tip of the dagger touched the surface of the silk glove, making a crisp sound of gold and iron interlacing.
