Chapter 146 The Prodigy Yan Xie
Shang Ji stayed at Zhang Xin's place and picked the best combination for an hour. After returning the list to Zhang Xin, Zhang Xin glanced at it casually, then waved his hand, and heard the system upgrade sound,
"Ding, player Shangji, are you sure you want to spend 806,000 merit points to exchange [Architectural Blueprints of Alchemy Workshop], [Architectural Blueprints of Martyr's Shrine].........a total of 82 architectural blueprints?"
"confirm!"
With Shang Ji's confirmation and agreement, the remaining merit points of more than 800,000 instantly turned into hundreds of points.
Then Shang Ji rubbed his hands and looked at Zhang Xin earnestly.
"What are you looking at? Do you think that a set of architectural drawings for each state will be in my hands? They are all in the state capital of each state, and are kept by the State Merit Office. I have to report and apply, and come back in five days to get it!" Zhang Xin glared at Shang Ji, and said angrily.
Shang Ji smiled, he was indeed too anxious.
"Ming Gong, then give me the elixir I exchanged first!"
"No, at most I'll give you half of it first, and the rest will have to wait for the city to transfer! I don't know how you got so many merit points! Isn't a hundred thousand Xianbei troops worth the price?!" Zhang Xin said to himself.
Shang Ji smiled and didn't answer. Most of his million merit points were obtained by taking advantage of the civil strife in Xianbei. The annihilation of the 100,000 Xianbei army only provided 400,000 merit points, which was less than half of the total.
"All right, all right, slippery boy, let's go. I'm annoyed when I see you. Every time you come, you add so much work to me!" Zhang Xin waved his hand, signaling Shang Ji to leave as soon as he's fine.
"Excuse me, Mr. Ming, please leave!" Shang Ji bowed and bowed to leave.
After leaving the place of meritorious service, Qin Ping has been waiting outside for a long time.
"Let's go, Zizheng, take me to visit Xiangping City, I haven't experienced the prosperity of Xiangping yet!" Shang Ji said to Qin Ping in a good mood.
"Please, General, Xiangping is located in a frontier fortress. Although it is not as prosperous as the hinterland of the Central Plains, it has a special charm!" Qin Ping said happily.
The two wandered together in Xiangping.
Speaking of which, Xiangping City is a giant city-level city. Although it is located in the frontier, its population is far less than that of a normal giant city, only a mere few million. But it was also very prosperous. Under the leadership of Qin Ping, the two rode on war horses and strolled around for more than an hour, but they didn't visit a corner of it.
"The name of the giant city is really well-deserved when I saw it today!" Looking at the spacious street and the crowds of people, Shang Ji said with emotion.
"The city is a good city, and the people are good people, but it's a pity that the officials are not good officials!" Qin Ping suddenly responded with a feeling.
For a while, both of them were silent. Speaking of which, both Shang Ji and Qin Ping were victims of Wang Tong's manipulation of power, but now that they have said a word, they even feel a sense of sympathy for each other.
"Ping made a slip of the tongue and disturbed the nature of the general's play, please forgive me!" Seeing that his words ruined the atmosphere, Qin Ping quickly apologized.
"It's okay, Zizheng tells the truth, what's the crime?" Shang Ji waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.
"By the way, Zi has been an official in Xiangping for many years. I don't know if there are one or two unhappy friends. Why don't you invite them to the Black Water Fortress and work with like-minded people? It's better than being persecuted by treacherous officials!" Shang Ji said suddenly.
When Qin Ping heard this, his face suddenly became embarrassed, he hesitated and couldn't speak.
"Why? You just look down on me and don't want your friend to bow down to the black water plug?" Shang Ji said with a straight face.
"The general misunderstood. It's not that Ping didn't want to, but..." Qin Ping quickly defended after hearing this, but he still refused to reveal the reason.
"Oh? Why?" Shang Ji was curious and kept asking.
"Alas!" Qin Ping sighed, and then said: "The general made me laugh. Ping has lived in Xiangping for more than 30 years, but because of his pedantic personality, he doesn't have many close friends. A few of them are still there." A few days ago, you followed me to Heishuisao, but now you can no longer help the general to promote talents!"
After living for more than thirty years, but without many close friends, Qin Ping was indeed a little embarrassed. It seems that he is very out of group.
"Hey, what's the matter, Zizheng has an upright personality and is full of passion, so naturally he can't blend in with those mediocre people! Zizheng, don't worry about it!" Shang Ji smiled slightly when he heard the words, and comforted him from his background.
"Ping is ashamed!" Qin Ping smiled awkwardly, accepting Shang Ji's comfort.
"Hey, by the way, general, I suddenly thought of someone who might be able to help the general!" Qin Ping said with some excitement suddenly.
Shang Ji also became interested. The person who can make Qin Ping so excited must be talented: "Zizheng, tell me quickly, what kind of talent is it?"
"General, this person is a bit special, please come with me and take a look!" He said, without waiting for Shang Ji's answer, he stepped on his horse first and led the way.
Shang Ji smiled, stepped onto Li Long, and followed after him.
Not long after, the two came to a dilapidated residential house.
A person dressed as a down-and-out scholar is holding a pen in one hand, writing something with splashed ink. There was still a jug of wine on the table next to it, and the scholar stopped to take a sip after writing a paragraph. A person dressed as an ordinary woman was waiting beside her, and from time to time she spoke a few words of advice.
Obviously, the scholar is writing letters for women.
If you look carefully, you will find that the scholar writes with his left hand, and his right hand is drooping weakly, which is obviously a disability.
After dismounting, the two of them didn't rush, they just stood by and waited for the scholar to finish his work.
After a while, the woman finished speaking, and the scholar also finished writing. The woman took the letter on her own initiative, put it in an envelope and put it away, then took out two copper coins and put them on the desk, said: "Thank you, Mr. Yan." Then she left.
"Next!" The scholar surnamed Yan called out, waited for a while and saw that no one came forward, and looked up to meet Qin Ping's eyes.
"Hahaha, the day is coming, I wonder if you brought me wine?" Seeing Qin Ping's arrival, the scholar seemed very happy, his drunken eyes were narrowed!
"I didn't bring the wine today, but I will recommend a hero for brother Yan!" As he spoke, he took half a step back and let Shang Ji out.
"Since Zizheng has no wine, let's go back! I'm not interested in being a hero or not!" Hearing that there was no wine, the scholar surnamed Yan suddenly became unhappy, and waved away impatiently.
"A real man doesn't make great achievements, why is he indulging in the things in the cup all day?" Shang Ji asked. Although I don't know what kind of talents the down-and-out scholar in front of me has, but to be recommended by Qin Ping, I think he must have some skills. But his current state is really not respectable!
"Wow!"
Shang Ji's words obviously irritated the scholar, and with a wave of one hand, he overturned the table in front of him. Maybe it was because he drank too much, or maybe he was inconvenient, and when he overturned the table, he also turned over.
Qin Ping quickly went to help him, but saw him squatting on the ground and crying.
"You're talking about how I can make contributions like this!" Being supported by Shen, he pushed Qin Pin away, exposing his obviously shriveled and deformed right arm, and yelled at Shang Ji.
"General, Yan Xie learned the skill of copying and writing in the early years, and he was very high-spirited for a while. However, he suffered a great change later, his right arm was disabled, and his ability could not be used, so he has been saving Xiaochou. I have offended you so much today, please forgive me, General !" Qin Ping whispered in Shang Ji's ear.
"What's the use of copying skills?" Shang Ji didn't care about drunkards, but he was curious about the copying skills Qin Ping was talking about.
"General, this is a skill that only a very small number of scholars with unique talents can comprehend. With this skill, you can copy martial arts cheats!"
"Copy martial arts cheats?!!"
