Chapter 2, A Natural Talent
And the second young master Fang, who had not slept all night, looked a little tired on his face, but his mood was very good. He was holding several rolls of ink-stained paper that were not yet dry in his hand, flipping through them page by page. The more he looked, the more he smiled. He nodded to the followers who were rushing the carriage and said, "The fox's tail is showing. In the first three rolls, I was still serious and could hide it, but later on, I got tired and revealed my demonic aura!"
Little Qingliu nodded and said, "Should we still go through the previous channels?"
The two of them started to argue, and the maidservant beside them dared not intervene. This scene is really too familiar to watch.
He gave an order, and the maid who helped him put on his shoes hurriedly agreed and went.
Take a break, what has he done to deserve a rest
I'm sorry, but there is no content provided for me to translate. Please provide the content you want me to translate.
Fang Cun waved his hand and stuffed more than ten chips into his pocket.
Young Master Fang Er said, "Go to the tea house outside the city and make a trip there. A reward of five thousand taels of gold will be given to eliminate her!"
What is even more fortunate is that this Fang family has an elder brother who is twelve years older, and he is an extraordinary talent.
My lord, please calm down. Look at how tired Cun Ge is; let him return to his room to rest first
What?
This is up to you
Wearing a robe, he got up and pondered where to spend the evening. Just then, the maid who went out to gather information rushed back in a panic, almost tripping over the threshold. Her face was filled with a terrified expression, as if she had lost her soul. She shouted, "Young master... Young master... Something bad happened! Master fainted, and madam... You should go and see..."
That one follows me...
He lightly sneered and lowered the curtain of the carriage, saying, "Scattering a large amount of silver into the gentle fragrance, thinking it's taking advantage and boasting of being romantic. How could he know that this seemingly delicate young lady is actually a man-eating demon? Spending his silver is a small matter, but in reality, even the slightest trace of innate aura from that seemingly passionate night has been stolen?"
The mother was displeased: "You encountered someone who is not doing well, and you say it is my indulgence. If the child is so capable, why do you not say anything about that?"
Young master, how did you fare in your activities yesterday
The follower lowered his voice and said, "So, what do you mean...?"
Live comfortably for a lifetime, until old age and death, perhaps even able to traverse back in time
Saying so, but also slightly frowning.
As for the second young master Fang, he pulled back the curtain and glanced outside. He saw that at this moment, the carriage had already returned to the main street. Everywhere on the road, there were well-dressed guests, with a drunken look on their faces, linking arms and chatting, heading home to have dinner with their wives.
It is unclear which nerve was misaligned, but one insists on clashing with the spirits and monsters every day
Upon waking from a deep sleep, it was already the afternoon
When the carriage returned to the Fang Mansion in the north of the city, Fang Cun was already asleep in the carriage.
The curses were unusually fierce, and the sound of the chicken feather duster was swishing.
Mother Fang hurriedly said: "Ah, my dear child, go back to the accounting room to collect..."
Perhaps this world is much larger than the previous one, or perhaps it is because there are alchemists that the productivity in this world is much higher than in the previous one. The wealth and prosperity of this world truly cannot be compared to the ancient times of the previous world.
The mother said, "Without my upbringing, how could the child be so capable? Can your skills earn you money?"
Madam Fang snorted and said, "Nonsense, this incompetent one is up to you..."
Although it is called the Great Xia, this Great Xia is not the same as that Great Xia; it is much more interesting
Fangcun Dao: "I am tired!"
Hehe, others travel through time and space at the cost of their lives, how can it be as comfortable for us
The one hurrying the carriage was his close attendant, Qinyuliu, who poked her head in from the front, wearing a mischievous smile as she looked at him
Inside the residence, upon hearing that his second son had not returned all night, the master of the Fang family, who was having breakfast in the hall, suddenly became furious and threw down his chopsticks. Grabbing a feather duster from the door, he rushed outside. The mistress of the Fang family, filled with concern, hurriedly followed him, repeatedly urging him to stop. As they reached the second gate, they saw a plump and rough maidservant from the household, carrying the drowsy second young master Fang towards the hall.
One is fortunate to have been reincarnated in this world, reincarnated into the Fang family
Mother, I have no money left, please lend me some for expenses later!
The maid cried out with a sobbing voice: "It is the eldest son... news has come from Chaoge, the eldest son... has died!"
The master of the Fang family said: "I manage the household, how could it not be earned by me?"
Fangcun suddenly turned around, and his footsteps came to a halt.
How wonderful is it to be at ease as one's own dandy
The next day, it is unknown how many students from Liuhu City, who had previously attended the grand gathering, along with wealthy gentry, were discussing the legendary encounter with the second son of the Fang family. It is even more uncertain how many were secretly speculating about the delightful experience that the second son of the Fang family shared with Miss Qingmeng, leaving them drooling with anticipation. However, this second son of the Fang family had already boarded the carriage at the back door early in the morning
This is because the Fang family adhered to the instructions of their elder brother, and thus they never dared to act recklessly in pursuit of wealth. Everything they did was in accordance with the laws of the Great Xia, and they never overstepped their bounds. Otherwise, if they were truly focused on making money, it would be even more unimaginable.
Madam Fang hurried over and urged the master of the Fang family.
Such troublesome matters, if not for the promise made to myself and that elder brother, truly should not be attended to
Master Fang, with a righteous demeanor, widened his eyes upon hearing this: "How long has it been since I gave you this, and you've already squandered it? You..."
The master of the Fang family was furious and confronted him, scolding while waving a feather duster: "You unworthy thing, where have you been running off to again? Ah, you are perfectly capable yet refuse to read the Nine Classics, perfectly capable yet refuse to learn the skills. Ah, how many times has the Bai Xiang Academy sought you? Ah, you just think it's too hard there and refuse to go. Can't you put in a little effort? Ah, look at your brother, he entered the academy at seven and was admitted to the county clan at nine. Now look at you, ah, all day long you only know how to fight cocks and dogs, and now you have even learned to run a tavern..."
At the age of three, he began his studies; by five, he had gained insight; at seven, he entered the academy. From that point on, his progress was unstoppable, advancing step by step, with an overwhelming presence. He has now become one of the top talents in the Great Xia, his reputation spreading far and wide across the seas and among the barbarian tribes. Naturally, this has led to the rise of even the lowliest among his kin. Although the Fang family still resides in the small town of Liu Lake, with the capabilities of his elder brother Fang Chi, they would be considered a prominent family even in the capital.
Go see what happened
... ...
The master of the Fang family scolded, "Listen well, Chi'er, that is to follow me!"
However, in memory, there should be no one who has traveled through time and lived as comfortably as oneself
The maid, carrying a sense of grievance, thought to herself: "You have swung that duster for quite a while, and it only landed once, yet it hit me..."
Fang Mu Dao: "Pah, this useless one is what you taught..."
Fangcun opened his drowsy eyes and impatiently called out.
One of the young maidservants reminded: "Madam said to let you save some expenses, this is for one month..."
He sat down with a sense of satisfaction, allowing four or five maidservants to dress him, put on his shoes, and wash his face. He thought to himself, feeling somewhat pleased, that it had been a long time since he had crossed over, and everything from his past life was almost fading into a dream; he was nearly forgetting it all.
Xiao Qingliu hurriedly retracted her head, not daring to ask again
... ...
If it is truly possible to live a life of luxury like this, then why would one bother to toil away as a Qi Refiner
The master of the Fang family scolded: "It is all your indulgence that has led to this situation..."
The second young master has returned
A fox demon can so openly cultivate in Liuhu City, relying on whose power
Fang Mu Dao: "There is no need for you to worry about it, as it is not something you earned..."
Fang Cun furrowed his brow; such a disturbance was almost unimaginable within the Fang residence
Young Master Fang Er shot him a glare and said, "Is it possible that I, Young Master Fang Er, would take action myself?"
Father, I have run out of money. Please lend me some for expenses later!
With him around, the Fang family hardly needs to earn money, as an immense amount of silver continuously flows into the Fang household
The only thing that gives me a bit of a headache is probably the demon-exorcising task assigned to me by that straightforward elder brother
Fangcun got up from the bed, and a maid who had been waiting for a long time brought him some bird's nest soup. After drinking a few sips, he found it too sweet and set it aside without finishing it. Looking at the table, he noticed a small wooden box already placed there. Upon opening it, he saw that the box contained a dozen or so gold-inlaid tokens, each engraved with secret patterns. These were not meant for direct spending, but rather served as tokens for the expenses allocated by the Fang family.
The expression gradually darkened.
His expression slightly darkened as he strode out, asking: "What happened?"
Master Fang and Madam Fang hurriedly stepped aside, urging the coarse maid to quickly carry him back to his room to sleep. As the child's figure was about to disappear, Master Fang finally reacted, complaining to Madam Fang: "Look at you, you spoil him again, giving him silver at every turn. Do you know how much he spends? In a month, he spends more than what other families do in three years... Be careful, don't bump his head!"
Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard a commotion outside in the courtyard, accompanied by several cries of lamentation and wailing
These fools
... ...
After a long while, he suddenly let out a low sigh: "Having endured for so long, it is truly commendable of him..."
Each token can be redeemed for three hundred taels of gold
Now this umbrella has already accumulated twelve marks, haphazardly arranged in various directions
Stop arguing
Perhaps only the driver in front, the young willow, knows that this represents the three river monsters that have been removed from Liuhu City and its surroundings, the four bandits who have acted recklessly with their magical powers, a demon sect that abducts children to refine elixirs, and the four fairies that roam within the city
... ...
In this world, although there are妖狐 and monsters, there are also Qi refining cultivators. Within the city, there are city guards and various divine generals, while outside the city, several old gentlemen from the Bai Xiang Academy are stationed. Under their keen eyes, these spirits and monsters not only dare to hide far away, but how could they even have the audacity to enter the city?
... ...
Having crossed over for more than ten years now, he has long since become accustomed to this luxurious life
The master of the Fang family indignantly said: "That child was also taught by me!"
While thinking, he took an old umbrella from the side and forcefully carved a mark on it
Master Fang and Madam Fang immediately fell silent, and Madam Fang nudged Master Fang, saying: "Look, you have disturbed our son’s sleep!"
