Five thousand taels of silver was actually a huge sum of money. Although the Qiao family was well-known, it was not a merciless Jinshan Temple. It was still a bit difficult for Qiao San to get five thousand taels of silver.
It would be a piece of cake for the monks of Jinshan Temple to come up with five million taels of silver.
Rumor has it that the gold and silver of Jinshan Temple is filled with dozens of vaults, and the food is piled up like mountains.
The three brothers of the Qiao family are generous and generous. Although there are many ways to get money, they use it quickly. Although the Qiao family's house is large and has a lot of land, it is an empty shell. All the food is used to relieve the poor, and the cash flow is seriously insufficient.
Qiao San whispered:
"Five thousand taels of silver is a bit expensive, can it be cheaper?"
The price of the DNA testing machine is clearly marked by the system, and there is no way to negotiate the price. Xu Xian has not made any money, so he can't buy it with his own money.
Xu Xian said:
"One price, no bargaining. You pay once and there will be no charges in the future."
Xu Xian didn't think there was a market for DNA testing machines in Dachu, and buying them would take up space. This condition was considered to be the most benevolent and righteous one.
Qiao San didn't think he had a second chance to do a paternity test. Spending five thousand taels of silver to prove that a daughter who appeared out of thin air was not his daughter was a bit of a waste.
Qiao San pondered for a moment and said:
"It's a bit difficult for me to come up with five thousand taels of silver at once. If I can't do it, it will also affect the Qiao family's other businesses. Otherwise, I will write an IOU and the money will be deducted from the rent."
The house that Xu Xian rented from the Qiao family had shops facing the street and a courtyard behind it. The monthly rent was ten taels of silver, which was only one hundred and twenty taels of silver a year.
Five thousand taels of silver is more than 40 years of rent, and it doesn't even cost five thousand taels to buy these houses.
Xu Xian didn't want Qiao San to misunderstand, so he had to tell the truth and said:
"Although five thousand taels of silver is a bit expensive, I haven't made any money from you. It costs five thousand taels of silver to check the items that need to be prepared.
I'm actually testing it for you for free. "
Qiao San didn't believe what Xu Xian said. Five thousand taels of silver was a huge sum of money. Why would inspection items be so expensive?
Qiao San felt that Xu Xian was unrealistic. Seeing that the Qiao family was rich, he opened his mouth and said it was too expensive and needed to think about it, and left Jishitang.
The next day, Qiao San came over again and said that he had the same dream last night and had another son when he woke up.
He also asked Qiao Er and the servants at home, and they all said that he had a son who was a monk, and his dharma name was Chen.
But Qiao San clearly remembered that he did not have a son who became a monk.
Qiao San looked like he was beyond love.
Xu Xian was amused by him and said:
"The more you sleep, the more sons and daughters you will have."
Qiao San shook his head and said:
"If it were an ordinary son, I could barely accept it, but he is a monk.
In the past twenty years, our Qiao family has not been ashamed of what Jinshan Temple has done and done our best to help those in need.
However, my son has become someone I hate, and no one else would be able to accept it! "
Qiao San had a son and became a monk.
Xu Xian was a little doubtful whether Qiao San really had a mental problem. When he woke up, he forgot that he had a daughter, Qiao Xiaodie, and that he had a son who became a monk.
Because the entire Zhenjiang Mansion knew that Qiao San had a daughter named Qiao Xiaodie, and the entire Qiao family compound knew that Qiao San had a son named Chen who was a monk.
Qiao San hasn't had time to inquire about his son Liao Chen in Zhenjiang Mansion. If he really inquires, the result may be the same. Liao Chen is really Qiao San's son.
It can influence the thoughts of everyone in Zhenjiang Mansion and make them believe that Qiao San has an extra child. Not even Daluo Jinxian can do it, unless a saint like Sanqing takes action.
However, the Piaomiao World is a small world, and the saint's true body cannot come at all.
For example, if the saint is as tall as an ordinary person, and the small world is just a grain of dust, an ordinary person cannot run into the dust, because the dust is too small to accommodate the saint.
The incarnations of saints can enter the ethereal world, but their incarnation abilities are suppressed and they cannot affect the thinking of the people in the city at all.
In other words, making two more people appear out of thin air in the minds of the entire Zhenjiang Prefecture is something that not even a saint can do.
Xu Xian asked:
"Have you ever thought about whether there really is something wrong with your brain?"
A flash of despair flashed in Qiao San's eyes. He thought Xu Xian could believe him, but now, Xu Xian didn't believe it either.
"When the whole world has deceived me, how can you, a little doctor full of copper odor, be able to stand alone?"
Qiao San turned around and left, leaving behind a lonely figure.
Xu Xian asked for 5,000 taels of silver before he would do a paternity test for Qiao San. Qiao San concluded that Xu Xian was an unscrupulous doctor full of money.
The reason why Qiao San came to see Xu Xian was because Xu Xian came from out of town and didn't know the situation at home, so he believed what he said.
However, now Xu Xian also suspected that he had a mental problem. Qiao San once again felt the feeling of not being trusted. Xu Xian was rubbing salt on his wounds.
Disappointed, Qiao San no longer needed to stay in Jishi Hall.
"Wait!"
Xu Xian first sent a message to Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing to investigate, then sent a message to Huijue to come back, then stopped Qiao San and said:
"I believe what you said, I can help you."
Can Xu Xian help Qiao San? Qiao San has no hope. Xu Xian believes in Qiao San, which is the reason why Qiao San stays.
Even if the whole world deceives him, at least there is one person fighting alongside him.
Qiao Sanji needs people's approval, otherwise, even he himself will suspect that he has a mental problem.
Qiao San asked:
"Doctor Xu, how do you want to help me?"
Xu Xian poured a cup of tea for Qiao San and said:
"First tell me how many children you have. If one more child appears out of thin air tomorrow, there must be something wrong with the world."
Nodding, Qiao San said:
"My eldest son is Qiao Bao, and he is also my only son.
Qiao Xiaodie and Liao Chen were created out of thin air after I had two dreams. "
Xu Xian pointed to the tea on the table and said:
“This is West Lake Longjing tea, but it is different from ordinary West Lake Longjing tea.
Take a sip and tell me the difference between this tea and ordinary tea. "
Qiao San picked up the tea cup and drank it all. He felt a strong spiritual energy flowing down his throat and seeping into his meridians. A strong sense of comfort filled the air and spread to his limbs and bones. Suddenly I felt a hundred times more energetic, and the sense of decadence was gone. I couldn’t help but clapped my hands and shouted:
“Good tea!”
This West Lake Longjing tea was grown by Xiaoqing in the Xu Mansion. Xiaoqing also entered the transformation process with Mu Zhiyi. It is no longer an ordinary West Lake Longjing tea. It contains rich spiritual energy and can be called fairy tea.
Mortals can prolong their lives by drinking it, and cultivators or awakened people can also improve their cultivation by drinking it.
The success rate of this kind of tea transformation is not high, the output is not large, and it cannot be used in Jishitang. It is just drunk by oneself, and sometimes used to reward the doctors, shopkeepers, and nurses of Jishitang.
Qiao San can taste it as good tea, which shows that he still has the basic ability to distinguish.
Xu Xian said:
"Tell me about your Qiao family, the more detailed the better,"
Next, Qiao San talked about the situation of the Qiao family.
Each of the three Qiao brothers has a son. Qiao's eldest son is named Qiao Long, who entered Wujiang Camp a few years ago.
Qiao Er's son is Qiao Hu, who helps Qiao Er take care of business at home.
Qiao San's son, Qiao Bao, lost his mother when he was young. Because Qiao San was overly pampered, he was a playboy who accomplished nothing. Because of the Qiao family's family rules, he didn't dare to mess around and just spent the whole day hanging out among the gangs.
Everything else is similar to what Huijue said, but the details are more detailed.
While talking, Huijue came back.
Huijue is quite busy these days, running around in various major Jishi halls, responsible for teaching skills and rescuing people.
Seeing Huijue, Xu Xian asked:
"Huijue, you have stayed in Zhenjiang Mansion for three years. Do you know how many children Qiao San has?"
Scratching his head, Huijue said awkwardly:
"Brother Xu, I haven't paid any attention to him, so I don't know."
