On the way back, Su Yu found a medicine shop and spent one hundred and thirty yuan crystals to buy two pairs of tonics before walking towards his home.
"Now that you have been promoted to captain, do you want to spend money to buy a better house?"
After returning to his home, Su Yu looked around and couldn't help but secretly thought.
But after thinking about it, I decided not to rush it.
Su Yu took out a pair of medicinal materials, washed them with clean water to remove the dust, and then began to boil them.
After it is cooked and allowed to cool, Su Yu drinks it in one gulp.
After waiting for half an hour, Su Yu muttered in his mind: "Open the system panel."
[Host]: Su Yu
[Shouyuan]: Immortality
[Cultivation]: Early stage of copper skin
[Martial Arts]: Cun Yan (Limit Breaking Technique) Immortal Step (Introduction) Thousand Faces (Limit Breaking Technique)
[Alchemy]: Blood Qi Powder (Introduction) + Vitality Pill (Introduction)
[Attribute]: 1 point
"If you want to upgrade the Immortal Step to breaking the limit, you need a total of eight attribute points. Currently I only have one point in hand."
"There is no shortage of Yuan Jing now. In another seven days, I should be able to improve my proficiency in the Immortal Step to the limit."
"In addition, a seventh-level meritorious service can also allow me to go to the martial arts pavilion to exchange for a martial arts book. When I have free time, I can go to the martial arts pavilion to have a look. If I don't have good martial arts skills, I can put this seventh-level meritorious service in the martial arts pavilion. The martial arts pavilion exchanges a martial arts book that others like, and then makes money."
Looking at the attributes in the attribute column, Su Yu murmured in a low voice.
In Zhenwu Division, many people can sell their merits when they are short of money.
There are two ways of selling. One is to directly sell the meritorious deeds to others when you have just completed the task and have not yet registered on the martial arts list, and then let others record the martial arts order.
The other is that the martial arts list has been registered, and the sale of meritorious deeds cannot be used to be promoted by others.
If someone encounters a martial skill that he likes in the martial arts pavilion, but does not have enough merits, he can ask the other party to exchange the merits for the martial arts at a lower price than the martial arts pavilion, and then sell it to him.
By doing this, you can buy martial arts relatively cheaply.
After all, meritorious deeds have two functions, one is to exchange for the skin on the body, and the other is to exchange for martial arts in the martial arts pavilion.
Once the meritorious deeds are registered, they cannot be used to upgrade other people's ranks. They can only be used to exchange for martial arts, and then resold to others.
It can only be used to exchange martial arts in the martial arts pavilion and then sell it. The price will naturally be relatively low. Otherwise, others can directly spend money to buy it in the martial arts pavilion. Why would they take the extra step to buy it from an individual?
After lunch, Su Yu went to Wanbao Tower, spent 60 yuan crystals to buy a pound of blood energy powder, and then walked to Kong Yangming's house.
This pound of blood energy powder was the reward he had promised Kong Yangming to learn ancient writing.
Now that he has money in hand, he doesn't mind cashing in the reward in advance.
"Mr. Kong, this is the reward I promised to learn the ancient characters. Although I have not yet fully learned all the ancient characters, Jingwei is now a critical moment to improve my health, so I paid this reward in advance."
Arriving at Kong Yangming's house, Su Yu placed the brocade box containing the blood energy powder on the table and said with a smile.
A pound of blood and energy is scattered?
When Kong Yangming heard this, his brows couldn't help but jump.
He knew that the price of Xue Qi Powder was not low.
Unexpectedly, Su Yu took out so much money at once.
"I'm afraid this blood energy powder is not cheap, right?"
Kong Yangming couldn't help but glance at him, and then said: "Have you made a fortune during this time?"
After all, the two parties have had a teacher-student relationship for some time, and they are familiar with each other, and the conversation no longer feels unfamiliar at first.
"There's no way to get rich."
Su Yu shook his head and said with a smile: "I was lucky enough to make some money, and I spent it all on buying this pound of blood energy."
When Kong Yangming heard this, his old face couldn't help but said apologetically: "Su Yu, I know that the ancient writing I taught you is far from worth the reward you paid."
"But if Jingming wants to become a warrior, he must use the blood energy powder to improve his blood energy level!"
"Don't worry, I will keep Jingming in my heart for your kindness. When he becomes a warrior in the future, he will definitely repay you!"
Su Yu chuckled and said: "Mr. Kong, what are you talking about? You can spare no effort to teach me all the ancient characters, and you have already repaid me."
"This pound of blood energy is my tuition for learning ancient writing. You don't have to tell Jingming any more about how you must repay me in the future."
"But."
"Nothing but, Mr. Kong, let's start today's lesson."
"Okay, okay, let's start today's lesson."
"."
It wasn't until the sun went down that Su Yu left Kong Yangming's home and walked directly in the direction of Jiaofangsi.
If it was not what he expected, Ji Longcheng and others would have finished listening to the music in Goulan and were waiting for him at the door of Jiaofangsi.
Sure enough, when Su Yu came to Jiaofangsi, three teams under Lin Canglan were already waiting at the door of Jiaofangsi.
Seeing Su Yu's arrival, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up, and they were eager to kill Su Yu tonight.
"Mr. Su, you are finally here. My brothers have been waiting so hard for you."
Ji Longcheng chuckled mischievously.
I used to call him Brother Su, but who knew that he was promoted to the position of captain behind someone's back secretly? He still didn't get used to calling him Master Su.
"Master Lu, have you invited me?" Su Yu said with a smile.
"Of course, when he heard that you were promoted to the position of captain, he was so surprised that he didn't recover for a long time. Haha, he also said he would come, and he would probably come with Mr. Lin."
Ji Longcheng nodded and said with a gloating smile: "How about we go in and order the food first, and then tell the madam that as soon as Mr. Lin and Mr. Lu come, let the madam bring him over."
Su Yu nodded and said, "Then let's go in first."
As soon as the group of people entered the Jiaofangsi, the Madam greeted several girls and came to greet them.
"Masters, do you have any good girls in our studio?"
The madam said with a smile on her face.
As soon as she came closer, a strong smell of powder poured into her nostrils.
"Is this taking a bath with rouge and gouache?"
Su Yu felt the discomfort coming from his nasal cavity and couldn't help but sigh.
But just by looking at the face of the madam, it can be seen that she must have been the number one figure in the Jiaofang Division when she was young.
It is a pity that time makes people grow old. Even the oiran of the Jiaofang Si cannot withstand the wasted years. After experiencing blooming, he will usher in a long period of aging.
Of course, when occasionally encountering some guests who like older people, the madam can also stand up and make the best use of her property.
It was the first time for Su Yu to enter the Jiaofang Division and he couldn't help but look around.
Compared to places like Goulan brothel, the layout of Jiaofangsi is undoubtedly extremely luxurious and expensive.
The front yard of the entire Jiaofangsi is laid out in a zigzag shape. The middle area of the zigzag shape is the hall, which is used for dining. A stage is built on which girls sing and dance, and musicians play and play on both sides of the stage.
The building in the front yard has five floors in total, and each floor is in the style of a private room.
Part of the box is used as an area for guests to hold banquets and for girls to dance to entertain them.
If you just eat in Jiaofangsi, you won't spend much money.
Just after eating and watching the girls dancing together, it will inevitably fill up my sexual desire, and then I can have a more intimate communication with the girl I like.
"Madam, have you seen the guest next to me?"
Ji Longcheng pointed at the leader, Su Yu, and then said: "This Master Su has just been promoted to the post of captain of the Zhenwu Division today, and he will hold a promotion banquet at the Jiaofang Division."
"Hurry up and open the biggest box for us. All the delicious food and drinks will be served. And girls, count the people. Everyone here will have at least two!"
"As for the wine, it must be at least 20-year-old Nuerhong. If Nuerhong is not enough, then Hantan brew. Anyway, the older the better, Mr. Su, we are short of everything except money!"
"As for Mr. Su, he came to the Jiaofang Division for the first time and was promoted to the position of school captain at a young age. He will be promoted to Baihu in the future."
"If there are any twin sisters or chicks in your teaching department, just say hello. If I don't rock your bed tonight, your girls are not treating them well!"
Good guy.
Su Yu glanced at Ji Longcheng blankly, this guy was really trying to kill himself.
There are two girls each. Are you talking human language?
I was promoted to a captain, but people who don't know are still worried about my promotion today.
Su Yu was full of curses.
However, he could also imagine that these guys felt uncomfortable watching him being promoted to captain. If they miss this opportunity to kill themselves, they may never have such a good opportunity again in the future.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a few hundred yuan crystals, just a mere few."
Su Yu forced himself to numb his bleeding emotions.
Others also had gloating smiles on their faces.
Everyone has agreed today that Su Yu must be allowed to return to poverty tomorrow.
The madam's eyes couldn't help but light up.
The biggest order of Jiaofangsi tonight is probably the handsome young man in front of him.
After all, the Jiaofang Division was a romance center run by the Imperial Court's Ministry of Etiquette, so he was naturally familiar with the official ranks in the Zhenwu Division.
Looking at Su Yu's face, he was only twenty years old when he was exhausted.
If you can be promoted to the position of captain at such an age, your future prospects are limitless, and you must be well received!
The madam shouted in a sharp voice: "Girls, have you heard that? Come on, show off your housekeeping skills and entertain me!"
"Ai."
A group of girls immediately came over to greet him.
Especially Su Yu, as the man with the most handsome face in the room, almost all the girls came to him.
"My lord, what kind of woman do you like?"
"Master, do you want to go sightseeing at my place tonight?"
"Obviously there is no trace of moisture in my longing for my brother, but why do I always get wet when I miss my brother?"
Seeing the active look of these girls, everyone couldn't help but twitch their mouths and suppressed their sour thoughts.
Under the leadership of the madam, the group went to Jiaofangsi's box and waited for the delicacies prepared by the kitchen to be served. At the same time, the drinks were quickly brought up.
Looking at the mud seal on the wine jar, Su Yu was frightened. He was probably going to bleed heavily tonight.
"Masters, I have arranged for the kitchen to prepare all kinds of cuisines. Please see if there is anything missing, and I will arrange for it right away."
The madam smiled flatteringly.
"What is missing?"
Ji Longcheng smiled and said: "Old Madam, our Mr. Su will definitely be a rising star in the Zhenwu Division in the future. You are not allowed to go to the backyard to persuade an oiran girl to come and perform a dance? Maybe tonight we can create a good story. Isn’t it possible that the future star of our Zhenwu Division is not worthy of the oiran of your Jiaofang Division?”
"That's right, Madam, we don't lack anything now. If any oiran girl can come and perform a dance tonight, our banquet tonight will be considered complete."
"That's right, Madam, we're spending so much money tonight, if the Jiaofang Secretary can't even invite an oiran, wouldn't it be too much of a neglect to the distinguished guest?"
"Made, if not even one oiran comes tonight, does that mean you are looking down on our Master Su?"
Everyone agreed with each other, and the madam couldn't help but have a look of embarrassment on her face.
In this Jiaofang Secretary, the four oirans are not subject to any restraint and only need to hold a cocktail party every month.
As for the rest of the time, even if the oiran didn't see any guests behind closed doors, there was nothing she could do.
"Well, gentlemen, you also know the rules of our Jiaofang Department. I can't move this oiran at my command."
The madam smiled bitterly and said: "But don't worry, I will arrange for someone to invite her here, but I can't guarantee that I can really invite the oiran girl. Please be patient with me."
Ji Longcheng nodded and said with a smile: "Since the madam has said so, and we are not the kind of people who make trouble unreasonably, you can ask someone to tell the four oirans that the future Lord Zhenfu will hold a promotion banquet at the Jiaofang Division today. , if they miss today, it will be difficult for them to have such a good opportunity in the future."
The future Lord Zhenfu?
When everyone heard this, their faces twitched violently.
Even Su Yu looked at Ji Longcheng blankly, this guy was almost boasting to the sky.
The old bustard naturally understood that Ji Longcheng's words were just a joke, but he didn't take them seriously. He smiled and said, "Everyone, please wait a moment. I will send someone to invite you right now."
Immediately, the madam hurriedly exited the box, and then ordered the maid guarding outside the door: "Lan Ju, go to the backyard and tell me that Mr. Su Yusu, the captain of the Zhenwu Division, is hosting a promotion banquet here tonight."
"Tell them, Mr. Su is a handsome man with a handsome appearance. He has been promoted to the rank of captain at a young age. He may be promoted to a hundred households in the future. His future is limitless."
"Let them all restrain their arrogance and get acquainted with a powerful person as soon as possible. Even if they become concubines, it will be a blessing for them in their lives. Don't say that I didn't give them a chance."
Lan Ju responded, then quickly went downstairs, and then walked towards the backyard of Jiaofangsi.
Jiaofangsi, as a romance center run by the Ministry of Etiquette, covers a very large area.
The backyard is mainly used to cultivate young girls who have not yet fully grown up. There will be dedicated teachers who will teach piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, playing, playing, and singing.
In addition, the four courtesans each have their own small courtyard. Since it is still some distance away from the front yard of Jiaofangsi, the noise in the front yard will not affect the people living in the backyard.
Looking at Lan Ju's walking back, the Madam couldn't help but sigh.
"Some people have not hit the wall and will never understand the deeply touching words of those who have experienced it. Once they have hit the wall and look back, they will already have no control over their lives."
The madam's eyes were filled with sadness and she murmured in a low voice.
She once became the oiran of the Jiaofang Division more than 20 years ago.
It's a pity that she never understood the truth at that time, that is, she must find a man who can be entrusted to her for life when she is at her most beautiful.
During the three years when she served as the oiran, she had countless suitors in Tai'an City, but at that time she couldn't look down on any of them.
After her position as oiran was replaced by a junior, she lost her halo as an oiran and was forced to start accepting guests.
The person who originally pursued her could only spend a sum of money to sleep with her for a few nights, and then set his sights on the newly minted courtesan again.
She regretted it more than once. If she had chosen a man with good qualities to commit herself when she was elected as the oiran, would she have a different way of life now, and would she no longer need to flatter herself in the Jiaofang Department? flatter.
Unfortunately, she realized these insights too late.
If a woman cannot find her partner at the age when she is at her best in age and appearance, it will be even more difficult for a woman to find a man she likes when her beauty fades in old age.
Even if there is such a person, he is just coveting her still alive body. After a night of fun, he will choose to leave ruthlessly.
Only when he gets old and loses his beauty will he realize how many opportunities he missed that could have changed his life during those years when he became the courtesan.
When the Madam came back to her senses from the thoughts of the past, her eyes were already covered with fine crow's feet, and her face was once again filled with a flattering smile, and she continued to greet every guest who walked into the Jiaofang Division.
She must make more money as much as possible while she can make more money in the past few years.
Because in a few years, she might not even be able to keep her position as Madam
Once again, two men walked into Jiaofangsi. The madam immediately greeted them and said with a flattering smile: "Two gentlemen, are there any girls you know well in Jiaofangsi?"
The visitors were none other than Lu Ze and Lin Canglan.
Lu Ze smiled and shook his head: "We are here for a banquet."
Lin Canglan said: "Excuse me, where is Mr. Su Yusu's box?"
"Master Su?"
The old madam was startled, then smiled and said: "Master Su has ordered box number A, number three, how about I take you there?"
"We can just go up there ourselves."
Lu Ze smiled, and went up the stairs with Lin Canglan, heading towards Box A No. 3.
"I never expected that Brother Su would be promoted to the rank of captain within just two months of joining the Zhenwu Division."
Lu Ze shook his head and smiled bitterly: "When I heard about this from Ji Longcheng before, I almost thought he was joking with me. After all, Brother Su has just joined the Zhenwu Division. No matter how fast he improves his realm, there is nothing he can do. From the early stage of body refining to the early stage of copper skin, right?"
"But later I heard that Brother Su was promoted to the rank of school captain because he provided a hiding place for the Yin soldiers and Huang Jingyan, and I finally understood."
"Master Lin, tell me, is this fair? Which of our captains didn't almost die in order to accumulate merit?"
"Now Brother Su only has a reasonable suspicion, and then he allows himself to sit in the position of captain. It's really annoying to compare people to each other."
When he heard Ji Longcheng said that Su Yu would hold a promotion banquet at the Jiaofang Department today, Lu Ze was stunned for a few seconds.
In the Zhenwu Division in Jingzhou, Su Yu is the only one who has been promoted to captain based on his cultivation in the Body Refining Realm.
Lin Canglan couldn't help but laugh and said: "That's his luck too. If other people heard someone discussing the rights and wrongs of the widow's family, would they think that there might be Yin soldiers and Huang Jingyan hiding in the widow's family?"
Lu Ze nodded and said with a smile: "That's true. I can only say that this is his and no one can take it away."
"I wanted to recruit him into my service before, but now it's good, he has been promoted to be on equal footing with us."
"Looking at it this way, I almost delayed his future."
Lin Canglan smiled and said: "I can only say that Su Yu is very lucky. You don't know that last night, Mr. Huo even mentioned that Su Yu should be one of his personal guards."
"oh?"
Lu Ze raised his brows and couldn't help but said: "Then what does Brother Su say?"
"What else can I say?"
Lin Canglan laughed and said: "He is a body refining realm warrior and serves as Lord Huo's personal guard. Isn't he looking for death? He is very self-aware and declined directly."
Lu Ze nodded and said with a smile: "This is in line with his style."
"yes."
Lin Canglan said: "On the contrary, I also benefited from him. Because of Huang Jingyan and Yin Bing, I earned a seventh-level meritorious service in vain."
When Lu Ze heard this, he couldn't help but twitching the corners of his mouth when he looked at Lin Canglan's slightly satisfied expression.
Although a seventh-level meritorious service is only worth a thousand yuan crystals.
But he has never had this kind of luck in picking up a thousand yuan crystals for nothing.
At this time, the two of them had already reached the door of Box A No. 3, and then opened the door.
"Master Lu, Master Lin."
"Master Lu, Master Lin"
"."
Everyone stood up and said hello.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lin, you are finally here. Please take a seat."
Su Yu hurriedly stood up and greeted him with a smile.
"Brother Su, congratulations."
Lu Ze said with a smile: "You will be the captain from now on. If you have anything you don't understand, you can come to me. As long as I can help you, feel free to come to me."
"With Brother Lu's words, I will be shameless in the future." Su Yu said with a smile.
"Brother Su, at first I wanted to poach Mr. Lin."
Lu Ze chuckled and said, "Who knew that only half a month had passed, and you would have given me a big surprise."
"Harm, I'm just lucky."
Su Yu said modestly: "I estimate that in this life, I will sit in the position of captain until I grow old."
"Brother Su, what you said is too modest."
Lin Canglan smiled and said: "In our Zhenwu Division, except for the third princess, you are the person who has been promoted the fastest in Zhenwu Guard."
"Look at the third princess. In the first month after joining the Zhenwu Division, she was promoted to school captain. After half a year in the Zhenwu Division, she was promoted to the rank of Hundred Households. Now she is almost promoted to the rank of Thousand Households."
"You have made great plans, and you have only been promoted to the rank of captain in the Zhenwu Division for two months. I think, in another year, you might have been promoted to the rank of Baihu."
"Come, let's all toast to Brother Su for being promoted to captain!"
"Lord Jingsu!"
Everyone in the box raised their glasses together.
"Thank you all for taking care of me!"
Su Yu also raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "I did it!"
Lin Canglan smiled and said: ""For this second cup, let's toast Master Su in advance for his promotion to 100 households!"
"Lord Jingsu!"
Su Yu: "."
