The First Saint of Dan Dao

Chapter 6: Mutual Schemes

"Boy, did you really write this poem?" Old Master Tang asked casually, but there was undisguised expectation in his eyes.

"Hehe, of course." Tang Yan said with a smile.

"Oh, you're out of breath when I tell you you're fat. Tell the truth!" Old Master Tang was not polite and asked Tang Yan by grabbing his ear.

Tang Yan felt aggrieved. What was wrong with this world? Why wasn't people allowed to tell the truth?

"Be gentle, be gentle, I'm telling you, I met a poor scholar some time ago, and I saw that he wrote this poem and it was pretty good, so I bought it.

He told his grandson that if he could write well and write this poem, some girls from wealthy families would be able to get it easily. The grandson was so excited that he not only memorized the poem, but also practiced his calligraphy..." Tang Yan was pinched by Grandpa Tang and hurriedly found an excuse to get away with it.

This reason was quite reasonable, and Mr. Tang finally let go.

Tang Yan rubbed his red ears and said with a bitter face: "Grandpa, this time the crisis has been resolved by my grandson. Can you reward me with a few tens of thousands of taels of silver?"

Today, the matter of the City Lord's Mansion asking for an explanation was successfully resolved. Old Master Tang was in a good mood, but when he heard Tang Yan's words, his face darkened instantly: "What do you want so much money for? Want to go out and spend money again? I warn you, if you dare to go out and squander money again, I will break your legs!"

Tang Yan was secretly worried. If you don't give me money, how can I buy the alchemy furnace? How can I make medicine without the alchemy furnace?

"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will never spend my money in wine and women. It's just that my grandson suddenly figured it out recently. I was really unlearned in the past. Now I'm not good at cultivation. I want to give up martial arts and go into business. I want to get some money to practice first." Tang Yan said seriously.

After hearing this, Mr. Tang's heart moved slightly. Although he still didn't believe that Tang Yan would really do business as he said, this reason sounded heartwarming, didn't it?

"Then go to the accounting office and get two...hundred taels of silver. When you have made some achievements, I can consider giving you more silver. If I find out that you use this money to live a life of luxury, all your pocket money will be deducted from now on!" Old Master Tang warned and turned to leave.

Tang Yan felt very disappointed after hearing this... Grandpa, I am your grandson...

Young Master Tang, who was so sad that he wanted to cry but had no tears, did not sit still and wait for death.

After half an hour, Tang Yan took all the valuable things in his room, put some silver in his arms, fanned himself with a folding fan, and walked outside with Xiao Cui.

Since you won't give me money, I'll just go out and buy some low-grade herbs, or make some ordinary nourishing medicine.

On the street, Tang Yan walked leisurely, fanning himself with his folding fan, his eyes frivolous and carefree. The elegant temperament he had when he wrote lyrics before was gone.

Xiao Cui tilted her head and looked at the young master. Why did the young master change so much from the way he looked in the hall? Could it be true that it was as the ancients said, "It is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature"?

Young Master Tang looked at the scene on the street with great interest, the sounds of hawking, chatting, and working were endless. The various restaurants, tailor shops, farm tool shops, weapon halls, blacksmith shops, etc. on the street all revealed an ancient charm.

There were more markets like this on Earth in the last century, but with the progress of society, these things have gradually been replaced by supermarkets, shopping malls and even online shopping.

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Tang? Why don't you go to Honghualou but start wandering around the streets? I heard that your grandfather withheld your pocket money. Could it be that you can't even afford to pick up the old lady at Honghualou?" A sarcastic voice came.

Tang Yan turned his head and saw that the person coming was Liu Yuan, the third son of the Liu family.

Liu Yuan and Tang Yan are similar, both are playboys in Yuncheng.

However, Liu Yuan is much luckier than Tang Yan. The Liu family has many members, and there are six or seven direct male descendants of the younger generation. Many of them are quite capable. So even though Liu Yuan is also a playboy, the Liu family will not be heartbroken and lament that there is no successor.

"Why, you want to give me some money?"

Although Liu Yuan is a playboy, he is not stupid. The Liu family has always wanted to annex the Tang family. This is no secret among the Yuncheng families. If he can teach Tang Yan a lesson, he will definitely be rewarded by the family when he returns.

However, the family also clearly warned the younger generations of the Liu family not to provoke Tang Yan, otherwise Mr. Tang would bite people if he went crazy.

If you want to teach Tang Yan a lesson, you have to let Tang Yan take action first.

"Give you money? You're dreaming! I thought Young Master Tang only had his dantian destroyed, but it turns out his brain is damaged too." After saying these vicious words, Xiao Cui's eyes were filled with anger.

"Fuck you, who are you calling crazy? Believe it or not, I will beat you up!" Tang Yan shouted with his eyes glaring.

"You want to beat me up?" Liu Yuan couldn't help but laugh, "Mr. Tang, it's not that I look down on you. Even if I give you only one arm and one leg, I can still beat you like a dog."

Tang Yan's eyes were red, his breathing was rapid, he pointed at Liu Yuan and said angrily: "You are only at the fourth level of the Yuan Stage, why are you so arrogant? Aren't you awesome? Why don't we make a bet? If I can knock you down, you will lose 10,000 taels of silver to me. If you can knock me down, I will give you the 200 taels of silver I have! Do you dare to bet with me?"

Liu Yuan was delighted. You know, in the martial arts world, each level has its own challenges. Although he was idle most of the time, he did have the strength of the fourth level of Yuan Stage.

This guy's Dantian is destroyed, and coupled with so many years of indulgence in alcohol and sex, I'm afraid even ordinary people can't handle it.

"I don't have 10,000 taels of silver, only 2,000 taels, and if I win I can only win 200 taels of silver, that's not fair!" Liu Yuan rolled his eyes and said with a chuckle, "How about this, if you win, I'll give you all the 2,000 taels of silver, and if you lose, you'll kowtow to me three times on the ground, how about that?"

You damn bastard from the Liu family, I’m going to beat you up later!

Restraining the urge to hit someone, Tang Yan continued his performance: "Damn, my head is worth less than 1,000 taels? If you lose, the most you can do is knock one head!"

Liu Yuan was delighted. The brainless and arrogant Young Master Tang was indeed a complete idiot.

As long as you kneel down, what’s the difference between kowtowing once and kowtowing a hundred times?

As long as Tang Yan can be made to kneel down today and achieve great success, the family will no longer restrict his dissolute behavior in the future.

Having made up his mind, Liu Yuan said, "If that's the case, then let's give Young Master Tang this favor!"

"Young Master! Let's go back!" Cui'er, who was standing beside him, pulled Tang Yan's sleeve and said in a crying voice.

"Get out of the way! Look, I'm going to beat him so hard today that his parents don't recognize him!" Tang Yan flicked his sleeves.

"Young Master, Liu Yuan is deliberately provoking you. He wants you to be fooled and then take the opportunity to humiliate my Tang family. Don't be fooled by him." Xiao Cui's voice became more and more anxious.

Liu Yuan took in Xiao Cui's reaction, it seemed that it was a foregone conclusion that Tang Yan's Dantian was destroyed.

But if these two idiots are really persuaded away by Xiao Cui, wouldn't all my efforts be in vain?

"Do you dare to compete or not? Give me a definite answer." Liu Yuan provoked.
