Hearing his question, Li Qingfeng had a wry smile on his face: "I want fellow Daoist Ge to know that in my family, there are only a few women in the village doing chores like boiling water and cooking, and most of the rest are handled by ourselves. .”
"How can this be possible? How can monks like us be like those ordinary people?" Ge Mao frowned with his thick eyebrows. He raised his tea cup and took a sip. He did not mind the bitterness of the tea and said to Li Qingfeng: "Although your family is small, But at least you have embarked on the path to immortality, and some rules still have to be adhered to. Well, when we have a small gathering at Jinding Mountain, you go to our place to buy some mortal servants and take them home with you. From now on, you will take care of these chores. Let them do it, so as not to lose the face of the Xian family."
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Ge is right. I'll buy some when the time comes."
"Well, there is one more thing." Ge Mao's brows relaxed and he continued: "When I came here just now, I saw that the mortals in your clan didn't seem to have any rules. This is not good. Now that you have entered the Immortal Sect, the people in the territory Mortals should come under your jurisdiction. You can imitate our sect and set up positions such as lords and village elders, or you can imitate other Confucian sects and set up government offices, but it cannot be such a mess!"
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Ge, for your advice. I'm going to teach you." Li Qingfeng nodded. This was indeed something he had thought about doing. However, since he was a casual cultivator in his previous life, he was not very familiar with these things, so he put it aside for the time being.
"Well, as long as you understand, don't delay this matter." Ge Mao gave another lesson, took a sip of coarse tea, and got back to business: "Not to mention this, we have a second thing to do this time, that is, The matter of purchasing spiritual herbs and providing this year’s spiritual seeds.”
Li Qingfeng nodded. He had already known that the people from Jinding Sect were here for this matter, so he listened to Ge Mao with an attentive ear.
Putting down the teacup, Ge Mao took out a roll of paper from his storage bag and unfolded it. He scanned it up and down with a slight frown and said, "According to what it says, what you grow at home is... Let me take a look. , the first-order ‘White Feather Flower’?”
"Exactly."
"Yes." Ge Mao nodded: "It said that you have two acres of spiritual land to plant 'White Feather Flower'. I wonder what the harvest will be this year?"
"So that Fellow Daoist Ge knows," Li Qingfeng replied with his hand: "My family did have two acres of spiritual land to plant 'White Feather Flower' last year. It matured half a month ago, and a total of eighty-six plants were harvested. In addition, my family also has two acres of new spiritual land. It bloomed, so there was no planting.”
"It's okay." Ge Mao took a sip of tea and asked, "Have you preserved it according to the method my sect gave you?"
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist Ge, they're all well preserved. Please wait a moment, I'll go get them." Li Qingfeng replied and was about to get up, but heard Ge Mao say: "No need, I'm sorry you don't dare to deceive me either." I wait."
After that, he looked at Chen Hao aside. Chen Hao knew what he meant. He took out an abacus from his storage bag and cracked it. He said: "The price of the first-order 'White Feather Flower' on the market according to quality is Two to four spirit stones per plant, the specific price has yet to be seen..."
"No need." Ge Mao interrupted him and ordered: "Calculate everything according to four spiritual stones." Then he turned his head to Li Qingfeng: "As long as your family does what they should do, my Jinding Sect will not It’s short of yours.”
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment after hearing what he said, not daring to have any opinions. The abacus in his hand crackled again: "In that case, each 'White Feather Flower' is counted as four spiritual stones, a total of eighty-six, that is, three One hundred and forty-four spiritual stones."
Ge Mao looked at Li Qingfeng: "Eighty-six 'White Feather Flowers' are 344 spiritual stones. Fellow Daoist Li, if there is no problem with the number of White Feather Flowers, you can take Junior Brother Chen to hand over them later."
Li Qingfeng looked at their actions and felt a slight movement in his heart. When Luo Yi was here before, he had to ask the door for instructions on everything. He was just a sounding board. However, Ge Mao could directly decide the price, and Chen Hao had no opinion at all. He did as he was told, and it seemed that Ge Mao's status in the sect was much higher than Luo Yi's.
Is it because he and others showed potential in Chaoyin Mountain? Or does the other party feel that further contact is possible? Li Qingfeng's mind turned and he nodded: "The quantity is no problem, so I would like to thank you Daoist Ge Ge."
The quantity was indeed no problem. Li Qingfeng did not keep it secretly. He did not think that Jinding Sect had any need to deceive himself on the price - now it seems that the other party did not. He had investigated the price of 'White Feather Flower' before, and it was consistent with the price quoted by Jindingmen today.
"Okay." Ge Mao nodded slightly, took out another box and a scroll and handed it over, saying: "After this harvest, don't plant 'White Feather Flower' anymore, plant this kind of 'Xiao Han Ye' instead. This is The planting methods of 'Xiao Hanye' and the things you need to pay attention to are related to them."
Li Qingfeng took it and looked through it a little. In the box was a pile of small green seeds, which were probably Xiaohanye, and the scroll contained information about their planting.
"It is cold in nature, so it needs to be planted before June and watered every day. It will sprout after autumn and mature in half a year..."
Li Qingfeng murmured to himself, and suddenly remembered that the previous 'White Feather Flower' was also cold in nature, and the entire growing season was in winter, just like the current 'Xiaohan Ye', and he didn't know if there was any reason for it.
Seeing Li Qingfeng take it, Ge Mao stroked his mustache and said, "It's already mid-May. You must plant the spiritual seeds as soon as possible. It will be bad if you miss the time."
After a pause, he continued: "In addition, according to the agreement, your family needs to use 80% of the spiritual land to plant my sect's 'Xiao Hanye', which is three acres and two cents. The remaining eight cents of the spiritual land is for your family to plan. , if we plant 'Xiaohan Ye' in the same way, our sect will collect it together at the harvest next year, all at the market price."
Li Qingfeng handed over his hand: "To be honest with what Fellow Daoist Ge said, my family wants to plant some spiritual grains for their own consumption in the remaining eight points of spiritual land. However, my family is small and I can buy the spiritual grains from outside. If the Sect needs it, my family can also plant all the spiritual grains." What do fellow Taoist Ge think about planting 'Xiao Hanye'?"
After listening to his words, Ge Mao stopped stroking his mustache, and his eyes showed some thinking. Seeing this, Li Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly and added: "In addition, my family also has an acre of spiritual land that is about to be reclaimed. However, it is already mid-May. If you want to plant 'Xiaohan Ye', I am afraid that you will need Ge Daoyou and Fellow Taoist Chen, please help me."
"In that case, you are really interested." Ge Mao put down his hand, pondered for a moment, and said: "In that case, you can all plant 'Xiao Han Ye', and the remaining acre of spiritual land should be cultivated as soon as possible. , Junior Brother Chen and I will help, and we won’t be delayed for a few days.”
It seems that there is a real connection. Li Qingfeng nodded, without revealing anything on his face, and said with his hands in hand: "Since Brother Daoist Ge has spoken, I will do my best. I will give the order right now and let the clan members take action, so as not to delay the important events of the Sect."
