Chaos Spirit Field

Although Zhao Yunduo is naive, she is not stupid. The secret book of space attribute is only sold for three thousand yuan. This Li Xiaoyao is very suspicious, but she does not feel any malice from him in her heart, and she does not know why.

Ji Lianmei was frustrated by her fellow apprentices and was filled with indignation. She blocked Zhao Yunduo's path and said viciously, "Zhao Yunduo, you enchantress, what evil magic have you used to deceive these apprentices? They've all been led to do whatever you say."

Zhao Yunduo replied expressionlessly, "Ji Lianmei, a good dog doesn't block the road. Please move aside."

Ji Lianmei was immediately furious after hearing this and shouted, "Zhao Yunduo, you lowly person, how dare you call me a dog? I must kill you!"

However, Zhao Yunduo showed no fear. Instead, she taunted him, "Ji Lianmei, I'm a student of Yuxu Taoist Academy and have the opportunity to become a disciple of Yuxu Palace in the future. If your Ji family wishes to be destroyed, then go ahead and attack me. You're quite bold to call people with the surname Zhao pariahs! If the Emperor of Zhao heard this, what would he think?"

When Ji Lianmei heard this, she panicked and realized that she had made a big mistake. She quickly bowed her head and admitted her mistake: "Zhao Yunduo, I know I was wrong, please forgive me."

Zhao Yunduo laughed contemptuously and said, "You are truly foolish. There are millions of people with the surname Zhao in the world, and I am not a member of the royal family. The Emperor of Zhao is not that stingy."

Ji Lianmei looked at Zhao Yunduo's receding figure and shouted with gritted teeth, "Zhao Yunduo, just wait! This isn't over between us!"

The Yuxu Palace's steward in Zhao State was Jiang Shang, a former minister of the Ji clan, who was grateful for their ties of kinship. Zhao Yunduo's momentary gratification brought her troubles, and the Yuxu Taoist Temple halted her living allowance and introduced targeted policies.

Seeing Zhao Yunduo arrive, Zhao Shanhe smiled and joked, "My business has been slow lately. It seems Miss Yunduo's suitors aren't strong enough."

Zhao Yunduo said with difficulty: "Li Xiaoyao, Yuxu Daoyuan has issued new regulations. Fellow disciples cannot give each other items that are not related to cultivation. They have also stopped providing living allowances to civilians, forcing them to fend for themselves."

Zhao Shanhe asked doubtfully, "Ms. Yun Duo, why do I feel like this rule was set up just for you? Did you offend someone?"

Zhao Yunduo frowned and said, "It must be Ji Lianmei's fault. Now I don't even have money to eat at Zhenxiuzhai. You promised to give me a job and provide me with food and drink. You can't go back on your word."

Zhao Shanhe pointed to a pile of deep-sea rotten silver on the table and said, "Here is a pile of deep-sea rotten silver. Use the power of space to purify it."

Zhao Yunduo asked doubtfully, "Li Xiaoyao, you also know how to refine weapons."

Zhao Shanhe replied with a smile, "I don't know how to refine weapons. It's not that business is bad, I'm trying to find another trade. For every piece you purify, I'll give you fifty yuan. It's not as fast as selling wood carvings, but at least it's a steady income."

Zhao Yunduo thought for a moment and said, "I want to eat the food at Zhenxiuzhai."

Zhao Shanhe said, "The food I cook is much better than the food at Zhenxiuzhai, and I'm sure you'll be satisfied. Use the power of space to extract the silver light spot, and don't take the rest. That room is very quiet, and no one will disturb you."

Zhao Yunduo put away the ore on the table and said, "Li Xiaoyao, are you a hidden master?"

Zhao Shanhe's face changed and he said angrily: "Zhao Yunduo, you are implying my height again." As soon as he finished speaking, he left angrily.

Zhao Yunduo then realized that she had been overthinking. If Li Xiaoyao was really a master, why was he so short? She went to the room and began to refine the deep-sea silver. It took her a lot of effort to purify a piece, and she thought to herself that making money was not easy.

Zhao Shanhe secretly observed Zhao Yunduo working hard on refining the ore and smiled with satisfaction. After refining this pile of ore, he would earn at least several million.

Zhao Yunduo felt her soul power visibly increase, but she also felt increasingly sleepy. Just then, Zhao Shanhe called out, "Miss Yunduo, dinner is ready. Let's eat."

Hearing Zhao Shanhe's call, Zhao Yunduo stopped what she was doing and said, "Li Xiaoyao, what delicious food did you make?"

Zhao Shanhe said, "Miss Yun Duo, I made mixed fried rice. Let's eat and continue. You're a little slow. You've only refined two pieces of deep-sea silver. You need to work harder."

Zhao Yunduo said dissatisfiedly: "You profiteer, I have tried my best. If your mixed fried rice is not delicious, I will quit."

Zhao Shanhe said, "I'm not bragging, my cooking skills are unparalleled in the world. Don't eat your tongue."

After Zhao Yunduo took a bite of the mixed fried rice, her eyes lit up and she began to spoon it into her mouth, unable to stop. Only when her stomach was bulging and she couldn't eat any more did she reluctantly turn her eyes away from the table. She said, "Li Xiaoyao, your mixed fried rice is so delicious! The taste is incredible. If you open a restaurant, you'll definitely make a fortune!"

When Zhao Shanhe heard Yun Duo's words, he said calmly, "There are only a few people in the world who are worthy of tasting the food I cook. Now that you're full, go back to work. I'm counting on you to make money."

Zhao Yunduo looked at Zhao Shanhe with some dissatisfaction and said, "Li Xiaoyao, why don't you go and do it? If the two of you work together, can't you make more money?"

Zhao Shanhe shook his head helplessly and explained, "The martial arts inherited from my family are only passed down to women. Men cannot practice them. The responsibility of making a fortune falls on you. Don't be lazy, work hard. I'm going to take a break now."

Zhao Yunduo watched Zhao Shanhe's departing figure and muttered in dissatisfaction, "You black-hearted boss, you only know how to exploit me. Do you really think I don't know the value of deep-sea silver?"

Zhao Shanhe replied without even turning his head: "Other people won't provide delicious mixed fried rice. You can take the remaining half pot of rice away."

Zhao Yunduo replied, "That's about right." Then she put away the half-eaten pot of rice.

As night fell, it was time for Zhao Yunduo to return to Yuxu Taoist Temple. She called out, "Li Xiaoyao, I have to go. This is four pieces in total, so I'll give you two hundred pieces."

Zhao Shanhe picked up the purified deep-sea silver and examined it. He said, "The quality is pretty good. You've passed the test. You can take the remaining ore. Come back to me after you finish your mixed fried rice. Bring at least two pieces of purified ore each time."

Zhao Yunduo said, "Li Xiaoyao, if only you were taller, I would give you the chance to pursue me."

Zhao Shanhe said, "Women are like skeletons, how can they earn real money? If you want to cheat me out of my money, you won't succeed."
