Chapter 124 Returning with a Full Load Wanhua Building. The second floor. Jiang Ning said: "Manager Han, I want to change the long sword I bear." Han Hongmei said: "Mr. Jiang, it is best to go to the weapon forging shop in the northern part of the outer city for this need! In Luoshui County, the weapon forging shop in the northern part of the outer city has the best quality!" "Thank you, Manager Han, for telling me!" Jiang Ning bowed and said, "I need one more thing." Han Hongmei said, "Mr. Jiang, please speak." Jiang Ning said: "I heard that Wanhua Tower also sells various intelligence. I want to buy a copy of various events around Luoshui Lake." Hearing this, Han Hongmei smiled and said, "No problem, I'll give you the information about Luoshui Lake later." After a while. In the VIP room on the first floor.
"Mr. Jiang, please check and inspect these. These are three Bull Demon Power Fruits!" Han Hongmei pushed a brocade box in front of Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning immediately opened the brocade box and took a look. Inside the brocade box, three black and green fruits appeared before his eyes. The fruit is about the size of an egg and is covered with a thin membrane. This thin film is a method used by Wanhua Tower to preserve spiritual fruits. When sealed, the spiritual fruit can remain intact for several months, which is extremely magical. Jiang Ning nodded immediately: "No problem!" Han Hongmei took out another booklet from the tray in Xiaolu's hand. "Mr. Jiang, here is the summary of the intelligence information you requested." Jiang Ning opened it and glanced at it casually. After more than ten breaths, he nodded again: "Not bad! Very detailed." Han Hongmei smiled and said, "As for the golden body soup packets that Master Jiang wanted, there are a total of fifty packets. Because the quantity is too heavy, I have arranged for a carriage to deliver it to Master Jiang's residence in person. Master Jiang will need to provide the address information later." "No problem!" Jiang Ning nodded, and then said, "Manager Han, please calculate how much I spent today!" "Okay!" Han Hongmei nodded. Then he continued, "Young Master Jiang bought three Bull Demon Power Fruits, one for eight hundred taels of silver, a total of two thousand four hundred taels of silver for the three." "One package of the Golden Body Soup costs fifty taels of silver. Mr. Jiang bought fifty packages, which is two thousand five hundred taels of silver." "As for the information about Luoshui Lake, I will make the decision and treat it as a gift." "So Mr. Jiang spent 4900 taels of silver today. Since Mr. Jiang holds a VIP card, all his spending in the building is discounted by 3920%, which means a total of taels." "I will take charge of the matter. I will round off the decimal point and make the total 3900 taels."
Having said that, Han Hongmei took out a silver note with a face value of one hundred taels. "Mr. Jiang, this is the profit from the items you just sold. Please keep it!" Jiang Ning took the silver note for one hundred taels of silver in front of him and put it away. Then he bowed: "Happy transaction!" Han Hongmei smiled and said, "Happy trading. I wish Mr. Jiang great progress." After a while. Jiang Ning slowly returned home in Wanhua Tower's carriage. Next to him, there were fifty bundles of golden body soup medicine packets. Looking at the medicine bag beside him and smelling the scent of medicinal herbs in the carriage, a faint smile appeared on his face. "With this auxiliary medicine, my efficiency in tempering the membrane should increase significantly." "If it works well, I'll continue to buy it after I use it up." "I still have 1,900 taels of silver on me. After I buy a good long sword today, I should have some left." Thinking about this in his mind, he slowly opened the brocade box placed on his legs. After opening the brocade box, he saw three Bull Demon Power Fruits wrapped in transparent film. "According to Manager Han, the skin has been refined successfully and is as good as cowhide. It can barely withstand the tempering effect of two Bull Demon Power Fruits." "I have already entered the realm of minor success in skin refining. My skin membrane is as tough as stone. It should be no problem for me to withstand three." Think of this. Jiang Ning then took out a Bull Demon Fruit from the brocade box and tore off the thin film on the outside. He opened his mouth and bit down. Instantly the juice exploded in his mouth. “It’s a little bitter, a little salty, and tastes a little off!” While he was speaking in secret, he swallowed the egg-sized Bull Demon Fruit in just two bites. next moment. As the fruit slowly digested in his stomach, Jiang Ning suddenly felt waves of pain spreading from his abdomen to his entire body. This pain does not come from the internal organs, but from every muscle. The medicinal power continued to spread, and the muscles throughout the body began to change. It started to get tight and cramps started to come. After closing his eyes for a while, Jiang Ning opened his eyes and whispered, "This is really effective. I can feel the muscles all over my body starting to be tempered by the power of the medicine."
"I don't know how long this tempering process will last?" Subsequently. He sat upright in the carriage and began to move the Qi and blood around his body, circulating his strength to help refine the medicinal power of the spiritual fruit in his body. With his assistance in refining. The body temperature gradually rises, the skin begins to turn red, and the body feels like an oven. The medicinal power of the Bull Demon's Power Fruit was also being absorbed by him rapidly. The carriage moved steadily along the clean and wide avenue in the inner city. The horses galloped, pulling the carriage at full speed. After an incense stick of time. "Mr. Jiang, we're at your house!" a voice came. Jiang Ning also opened his eyes. He then walked out of the car carrying a large bag of medicine. "Thank you!" Jiang Ning said with a smile. The driver also showed a hearty smile: "It is my job to send Mr. Jiang back home." Jiang Ning smiled without saying anything. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Li who had been waiting at the door for a long time. "Brother, you're finally back!" Jiang Li said when he saw Jiang Ning looking up. "What's wrong? Why is big brother waiting for me at the door?" Jiang Ning took three or two steps over a dozen flights of stairs and arrived at the gate of the house. Jiang Li said: "Cheng Ran came to see my brother and has been waiting for my brother in the main hall for nearly half an hour!" "Cheng Ran is here?" Jiang Ning was a little surprised. Then he picked up the bundle of medicine in his hand and said, "Brother, please help me put these medicine bags in my yard. I will go to see him now." "Brother, what is this?" Jiang Li took the medicine bag from Jiang Ning's hand, a puzzled look on his face. Jiang Ning explained: "This is the medicine bag I use for medicinal baths. It is of great help to my martial arts." "So that's how it is!" Jiang Li immediately nodded in understanding, and then continued: "The medicinal bath requires boiling water and adding materials. I happen to be free now, so I can help my brother." Jiang Ning asked, "Hasn't the position that the county government arranged for you, brother, been confirmed yet?" Jiang Li shook his head slowly, somewhat awkwardly: "I met with Feng Tou before, and Feng Tou said that the casualties among the constables in the yamen have been quite high in the past two years, and the logistics posts are all full! There is no suitable post for me at the moment!" Jiang Ning frowned slightly when he heard this. He had known about this matter before. Generally speaking, constables risk their lives for the yamen, and if something happens to them, they will receive casualty compensation. If a constable is injured and is not suitable to continue to serve as a constable, or fails the end-of-year examination, he will be assigned a suitable logistics position, such as guarding a warehouse, guarding an archive room, etc. To ensure that those detectives can survive even if they lose the capital to fight for their lives.
Without these guarantees, how could those detectives risk their lives for the yamen? You will inevitably work without putting in any effort. Previously, due to the interference of the Cao family, not only did my eldest brother’s pension not get paid, but he also had no information about this logistics position. Later, because his status was improved, Captain Feng and Cao Bin came to his house, and these problems were temporarily solved. However, the logistics position for the eldest brother has not been implemented. Jiang Ning also knew that his eldest brother stayed at home every day, and with his personality, he had already felt very uncomfortable. If he had a job and an income, he would be much more comfortable. Jiang Ning did not expect that such an arrangement had not yet been implemented by the county government. Thoughts raced through his mind, and then he smiled. "Thank you for your help, big brother. The inspection office will be open in about ten days. This period of time is a bit tight for me, so it would be great to have your help." Jiang Li heard this and laughed: "Brother, just focus on practicing martial arts! I just happen to be free, so leave these trivial matters to me!" Jiang Ning also smiled. Then he bent down, picked up the little girl who was playing in the yard, put her on his shoulders, and walked towards the main hall. Sitting on Jiang Ning's shoulders, Xiao Doubao couldn't help but open his hands and cheer. He kept shouting: "Go, go, go! Go!!!" After a while. Jiang Ning came to the door of the main hall and put down the small bean bun on his shoulder. He patted her head and said, "Yuanyuan, go play by yourself first!" "Okay, Dudu!" The little bean bun pouted and responded reluctantly, but still nodded obediently. "So good!" Jiang Ning smiled and rubbed his head. Immediately. He stepped into the main hall. At this time, Cheng Ran was sitting on a chair in the main hall, eating fruits and drinking herbal tea. After hearing Jiang Ning's voice, he also turned to look at the gate. "Brother Jiang!" Cheng Ran saw Jiang Ning stepping into the hall and immediately stood up to greet him. Jiang Ning smiled and said, "I didn't know that Brother Cheng would come to visit so suddenly. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long!!" Jiang Ning then asked, "I wonder what the matter is that Brother Cheng suddenly visited me?" Cheng Ran said, "Master Wang informed us that there is an important announcement today, so we need to go to the martial arts hall."
Hearing this, Jiang Ning said: "So let's set off now?" Cheng Ran said: "I don't know if it's too late!" Jiang Ning said: "Whether you can make it in time or not, you can find out by going to the martial arts hall. The martial arts hall is not far from here anyway." "Okay!" Cheng Ran replied. Then the two of them walked out of the main hall. Arrived at the gate of the house. "Young Master!" A man in plain clothes spoke immediately when he saw Cheng Ran. "Xiao Luo, you're here at the right time! What did the martial arts school say?" Cheng Ran's eyes lit up and he asked. "Master, the master of the martial arts school said that you and Mr. Jiang need to go to the martial arts school. The master of the martial arts school has something to tell you and Mr. Jiang." Hearing this, Cheng Ran nodded immediately. Then he said to Jiang Ning: "Brother Jiang, let's go!" "Let's go!" Jiang Ning nodded slightly. (End of this chapter)
