These jade monsters are so rich!

Not to mention that the system was overwhelmed by the choices, even Shen Yao was no exception.

"Do you still have this kind of pill? Give me another bottle." The Jade Demon was very rich and generous. He started by asking for a bottle, and the price was several times higher than the original price.

"Welcome again."

Shen Yao handed over the money and the goods with a smiling face, then turned around and happily counted her extra income while carrying these jade monsters on her back.

"Host, it's a pity that we are about to leave Qintai City, otherwise this kind of transaction can still be carried out."

The system's mechanical sound, which should have been unchanging, rarely had a fluctuating tone.

"What are you doing? Now is the perfect time to leave." There are only a few jade monsters. No matter how much they digest the elixir, there is a limit to how many pills they can digest. They can't move around and trade at any time.

"Here, these are your rewards." After collecting the divided money and the system, Shen Yao clapped his hands and turned to think about what kind of business he could do in the next city.

"You mean Zhuying Town? They mainly produce bamboo paper, bamboo pens, and other bamboo products there. Should there be bamboo monsters there?" The system thought about the benefits of bamboo monsters. Well, forgive it for not finding anything other than bamboo shoots.

"Zhuying Town may not be as large as Qintai City, but its environment is beautiful and the scenery is natural. It is a place where some talented people often go to relax."

Because the bamboo paper, bamboo pens and other items produced in Zhuying Town have always been different from those produced in other cities, they are also the town's pillar industries and the main source of income for Zhuying Town every year.

"Oh, I remember now!" the system suddenly exclaimed, and then displayed a wall full of poetry. "There are verses on it that praise Zhuying Town. At that time, the host said that they were just seeking fame!"

That's right, the system really remembered everything this time. After all, Zhuying Town is not far from Qintai City. One is Qin and the other is Bamboo. Both are related to elegant arts such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Therefore, the audience groups of both sides will have a certain chance of overlap in some aspects.

In other words, people who come to Qintai City will not mind going to Zhuying Town, which is not far away.

Just like them, although they are still staying in Qintai City, they are also planning to set off for the next city. Zhuying Town is a must-pass place when heading south, so they naturally will not miss it.

"To gain fame? Yes, to gain fame!"

Shen Yao suddenly smiled playfully, then stopped paying attention to the system and turned to go to the study room not far away.

The weather had turned cold when the carriage left Qintai City, but the climate in the south has always been unclear. Shen Yao was still wearing her light gauze shirt, leaning lazily in the carriage, her eyes looking along the gap in the curtain that was lifted up due to the bumpy road.

Green mountains and green waters, surrounded by clouds.

As the carriage entered Zhuying Town, the number of bamboo forests visible to the naked eye increased.

The connected bamboo forests form waves of bamboo sea, and the breeze brings the fragrance of bamboo to the ground.

Occasionally, smoke rises from inside the bamboo forest. It is from travelers who come out for a walk, enjoy the scenery, and brew tea. They come in groups of three or four to hang out with friends and look very comfortable.

At times like this, the system particularly likes to ruin the atmosphere and chatter to show its presence.

Shen Yao:......

'Really, how can the host not trust the Tong? They are just trying to gain fame and reputation, learning that thing, what was it, and anyone who wants to take the bait will do so!

That's right, that's right, those who are willing to take the bait are waiting for the opportunity to rise to the top overnight.

The system became more and more excited as it spoke, until it realized that they were also seen as opportunities.

System: ...Damn!

The paper with the fragrance of bamboo leaves floated into the carriage with the wind and was accurately grasped by Shen Yao.

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows when she saw this. "Look, the ink on it hasn't dried yet. It shows that opportunities are fleeting. We are not fools."

The patrol route of the group is no secret, and anyone interested will pay attention to it.

Besides, what can a poem express? It is just a way to show off one's talent. Whether it can win the favor of the nobleman depends entirely on the nobleman's own preferences.

"Host, the content of the poem above is very literary," it thought.

"Not necessarily. Lin Xingzhi's public persona has always been one of elegance and elegance. The poem on the paper was completely tailored to his tastes," he said, flipping through it calmly. "Besides anything else, the person waiting here must have done their homework."

system:……

Is that so? Could it be that it just can't understand that a few lines of a simple poem can really mean so much?

Uh-huh~

Shen Yao threw the paper aside without paying any attention. However, Lin Xingzhi, who was sitting in the front carriage, smiled and asked his subordinates to deliver an invitation. The implication was that he had just arrived and it was inconvenient for him to receive guests now. He would definitely invite them again after he was settled in.

"But I just do what comes to my mind. It is my honor to be valued by King Jing."

As an ordinary student without any official position, calling himself a student is already an advantage, but he dare not try to establish connections with others at any cost.

What's more, today's progress is very encouraging. Now that he has received King Jing's invitation, he can meet King Jing no matter what. It's time to prepare for what's next.

"Congratulations, Brother Zheng. Congratulations, Brother Zheng, you have won the first place today, but please don't forget us brothers."

"That's right, that's right. Brother Jiang said it was nice back then, that the high school parade would be worth our support. But now, Brother Jiang is a high-ranking official in the capital, with a beautiful woman in his arms. How could he still think of us, the brothers who shared our hardships?"

"Ah, when things are going well, why do you have to bring up those people who spoil the fun? You must know that today is a good day for Brother Zheng. With the favor of King Jing, he will rise to prominence and have a promising future."

"..."

As soon as the student surnamed Zheng returned to the bamboo forest, he was surrounded by others. Some expressed envy, some were jealous, some were happy, and some were resentful. The various aspects of life are self-evident.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the words sound nice, but in my heart I can't wait to replace them. People, they love to say the opposite of what they mean. "

The system mocked these people, including the student named Zheng.

"It is said that a gentleman judges his deeds, not his heart. Don't look at what they think or say, but what they do."

Shen Yao nodded at the overly angry system, saying that the student surnamed Zheng had studied sage books for many years just to sell them at a good price.

Taking Lin Xingzhi's route is the most convenient and fastest option for students in the south. Otherwise, it would be like a huge army crossing a single-plank bridge, and the result would not be as simple as these poems.

'It seems the host accepted this well. I thought you would be unhappy.'

Before the system could finish its words, Shen Yaoqing retorted, "You're overthinking. I'm a demon. What do human affairs have to do with me?"

Not to mention that these students chose to present poems and songs to please Lin Xingzhi, even if these students personally took the stage to implement their strategies, Shen Yao would still be very calm.

She was a demon, a powerful demon with a long lifespan and great magical powers. Why would she compete with humans, who were always short-lived? If she felt comfortable, she could continue living. If she felt uncomfortable, she could leave. Could it be that Lin Xingzhi had some way to restrict her?

Lin Xingzhi: ...

Of course, there was no way to restrict Lin Xingzhi, but Lin Xingzhi had an advantage that Shen Yao could not refuse, that was his face was really charming enough.

At least Shen Yao still can't give up now. With such a charming face, it would be extremely difficult to come across another one with a comparable appearance.

System: ...big pervert!

The lustful Shen Yao said arrogantly that if she could live with it, she would live with it, and if she couldn't, she would break up. However, she was actually quite honest in her actions and didn't show any intention of giving up.

Zhuying Town is famous for its bamboo, including the buildings here, which are mainly made of bamboo. The fragrance of bamboo lingers in the air for a long time, including the house they live in.

Shen Yao walked around the courtyard again and again, and finally nodded with satisfaction. It would be better if there were more flowers and plants.

'Why? ’

"There's no reason. If you don't go find the bamboo monster, who will come to trade with us?"

'I'll go find it right away!'

The system started looking for bamboo monsters within two days of resting. The monsters in Zhuying Town are all plant spirits. They are timid by nature and rarely enter the city. Most of them live deep in the bamboo forest.

After telling the host this news, the system secretly wondered what the host could possibly trade with these poor goblins. Goblins that were transformed from plants, to say they were poor was a compliment; they were clearly beggars.

"Nonsense! Our own seeds, roots, stems, and leaves are all valuable medicines."

"Oh? So how much is it worth?"

"..."

This human's speech is so annoying. Why does he have to say such vulgar and crude words? How can their fairy things be measured by cold and hard prices!

Shen Yao smiled, but her voice was so cold that it made Yao tremble. "We are doing a deal. If we don't talk about price, what else can we talk about?"

They can't be trying to get her things for free. The fairies before them didn't have such ability. How could these fairies who were transformed from plants be so desperate?

"You, what's the price of this kind of medicine?"

The goblins that turned from plants are not only timid but also extremely cowardly. Getting something for free? They don't even dare to think about it.

They stuck their necks out to say that if the price was too high, they wouldn't have to do it. At worst, they would just go hungry. It's not like they hadn't been hungry before.

Shen Yao:......

Really, that's all I can do~

"Don't worry, I do business with you, the prices are transparent, and I will not cheat anyone.

Here, try it first and see how it tastes. I don't have many elixirs like this one that can be used to make your plants spirits.

So if you want to buy it, you have to hurry up, no matter if you have to scrape together the money or anything else, you have to do it before she leaves.

Fine

But "Are you willing to sell these pills to us?" Don't tell them you're not keeping your word and are just teasing them.

"Of course, but the number is really limited. There are so many goblins here." Shen Yao could only shake her head helplessly, and everything was self-explanatory.

Plant fairies: ...

"Mine, mine, I bought it first."

"No, it's clearly what I want, you can't snatch it from me."

"Why? Isn't it first come, first served? I need to go find someone."

"You, so despicable, be careful that all your leaves and roots become bare."

"..."

In order to buy the elixir that Shen Yao was trading, these goblins who had transformed from plants fought each other privately, wishing they were the only ones who could buy it in the entire deep bamboo forest.

Unfortunately, this is just their beautiful fantasy. The goblins that have transformed from plants are equally powerful. No one has the ability to absolutely suppress the other. Even if they are good at talking, they cannot defeat the enemy without fighting. There is an endless stream of goblins running to Shen Yao, fearing that they will miss out if they are a step late.

system:……

The system once again thought it was truly wrong. These plant-based spirits were not insignificant at all. The leaves, roots, and stems that emanated such demonic energy, as well as the fruits and flowers that contained their own aura, clearly meant they were wealthy demons.

“A pleasure to work with”

Shen Yao collected money with one hand and received goods with the other. However, in just a few days, the space that had been specially cleared out was filled with the things from these goblins that had transformed from plants.

Anyway, she still needs to travel through different worlds in the future, so the things she put away will always come in handy.

"Host, please stop worrying about this and take care of Lin Xingzhi."

Wow, someone, no, a demon actually wants to poach the host.

After seeing this, the system was so anxious that it jumped up and down. This monster was so bold that it clearly didn't want to live.

Shen Yao:......

'Quiet, don't disturb me counting the goods,' these were the rewards she had worked hard for.

'Host'

It's already this late, why are you still in the mood to take care of these goods that can't be spoiled for a while? Look at people, your belongings are about to be taken away.

'Don't worry, he is a human being, not anyone's appendage. He has his own thoughts and ideas, and he knows the consequences of his actions.' Therefore, it is impossible for Lin Qinghuai to be poached. At least before the three children grow up, he will not part ways with Shen Yao.

"But, but" Lin Xingzhi's current condition is obviously not right.

"Wait a little longer, he will tell you," Shen Yao said confidently.

system:……

The system didn't know where the host's confidence came from. It was still thinking about watching the fun, but unexpectedly, less than half a day after it finished speaking, Lin Xingzhi took the initiative to run over and confess to Shen Yao.

what? !

Do you have to be so happy?!

"...Yao Niang, do you think they have some hidden agenda?"

She was so eager to win him over with the beauty trap, but the beauty she found looked just like Shen Yao in every move. Did she feel that she didn't like the original and was only satisfied with the fake?

"Behavior, maybe they just simply admire you" thinks being like her can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"No, Yao Niang is kind-hearted. These demons are very cunning." Lin Xingzhi didn't think that there was anything on him that could attract demons. The only thing he had was the power given to him by the court and the emperor.

Shen Yao:......

"Yes, this is why I am confident." On the one hand, their feelings are still there and they are still in the honeymoon period; on the other hand, Lin Xingzhi has considerable power. Not to mention the goblins who wield hoes to dig out the foundation, even the mosquitoes that intrude into his sight have to accept Lin Xingzhi's groundless speculation and suspicion.

This is not the Lin Xingzhi in Floating Cloud City. Lin Xingzhi now has too many responsibilities on his shoulders, and he cannot afford to think things are too simple.

system:……

Not only did he fail to gain Lin Xingzhi's favor, but he also aroused deeper suspicion. Not only did he suffer losses himself, but he also lost the initiative, and even the people behind him were in trouble.

Tsk tsk tsk, this is really a case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken, losing both the wife and the army.
