Chapter 28 I, Li Changzhou, am not dead yet (fourth update, asking for monthly votes)
Hang up the video call with Zhong Cheng.
Li Yuan thought about it, and fearing to disturb his uncle Li Changzhou's rest, he did not directly make a video call, but left a message first.
The following situation is roughly described.
Just five minutes later.
Beep—beep—Li Changzhou took the initiative to call back the video call, and Li Yuan answered it immediately.
"Uncle." Li Yuan looked at Li Changzhou in the video projection. He was covered in dust, as if he had just finished a busy job.
"I know roughly." Li Changzhou's face did not have the joy that Li Yuan expected. Instead, his brows were furrowed. "If Xingkong Wudian really only gives you a D-level contract in the end, then we will talk about whether you will sign it or not."
"Oh?" Li Yuan was a little confused.
The special recruitment of the Martial Arts Hall has always been Li Yuan’s first goal, but there has been no news for more than half a month.
In fact, at the beginning, Li Yuan was not so eager to sign a contract with Wudian in advance.
But these days, Li Yuan searched a lot of information on the Internet and learned that the early signings of several major martial arts halls were generally good. Apart from the large constraints, there were no pitfalls.
The most important thing is that as long as you sign the contract in advance, no matter what level it is, it can indeed greatly reduce the financial pressure on your family.
You can even get cash rewards and give back to your family.
Li Yuan felt that he owed something to his uncle and aunt.
I always feel that my uncle took the risk to go to Northern Xinjiang Province because of me.
"I have basically found out through some connections." Li Changzhou explained patiently: "Over the years, the advance signing contracts of the three major martial arts halls are divided into five levels from low to high: D-level, C-level, B-level, A-level, and S-level."
"The terms of contracts of the same level between different martial arts halls are similar."
Li Yuan nodded slightly. From this perspective, in the eyes of the Starry Sky Martial Palace, he was in the lowest tier?
However, those who can sign the contract in advance are already excellent.
"D-level contract, one million Blue Star Coins per year for six years." Li Changzhou said in a low voice: "It sounds good, but you have to know."
"The resources you need for training now and the training resources you will need after entering university and becoming a warrior are two different concepts."
"For example, a bottle of basic Qi and blood potion only costs 2000 Blue Star Coins. You only need to spend Blue Star Coins a month now."
"After becoming a warrior, the first-level basic blood and qi medicine used by first-level warriors alone costs 1 Blue Star Coins per bottle. A month requires at least ten bottles, and at most twenty to thirty bottles." Li Changzhou said solemnly: "Just the most basic item alone will cost at least one million Blue Star Coins a year."
"There is also the 'Assisting Spiritual Cultivation Treasure'. If you aspire to become a Level 2 Source Warrior in the future, this is essential. Spending millions of Blue Star Coins a year is the minimum..."
“And physical therapy…”
"There are also weapons and various auxiliary equipment to be purchased. Warriors have to fight against the creatures of the star realm. How can the equipment be ordinary? It is expensive and easy to break." Li Changzhou looked at Li Yuan: "One million is a lot for you now."
"If you are not interested in martial arts, you want to study other majors in college."
"Then you don't have to spend too much money on martial arts. Just practice slowly in college and strive to become a level 15 martial artist in the future. This contract can even be considered generous. You may be able to save millions of Blue Star Coins." Li Changzhou said: "After you graduate from college, according to the contract, Xingkong Wudian will have to give you a job."
"When the time comes, you can be an ordinary member of the Martial Hall like your uncle Zhong, and your welfare benefits will be no worse than those of a civil servant."
"If the Starry Sky Martial Hall takes the initiative to terminate the contract and does not give you a job, you can take the millions of Blue Star Coins and find a new job, which is a sure win."
"This is a bright road that can be laid flat." Li Changzhou stared at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan was surprised.
He didn't expect that there was such a way to play.
"But Xiaoyuan, are you really willing to be an ordinary person? An ordinary warrior?" Li Changzhou stared at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan was silent.
"You are unwilling to give up." Li Changzhou shook his head and sighed: "I watched you grow up, how could I not understand? You practice so madly, besides wanting to help your family, the most important thing is that you have the heart of a warrior."
"From the second year of junior high school to the third year of high school, have you ever rested for even a single day during weekends, summer vacations, or winter vacations? You even practiced during the Chinese New Year."
"You're hard on yourself."
"I've never seen such ruthlessness. I can't compare to you, and your father couldn't catch up with you back then." Li Changzhou said slowly.
Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly. Over the years, his uncle rarely said so much, and never mentioned his deceased father.
"Your aunt has always wanted you to take the civil service exam and become a teacher in the future. She has always blamed me for not supporting you."
"Why don't I object to you becoming a full-time warrior?" Li Changzhou said with a hint of excitement in his voice: "I don't want you to regret it when you are forty years old like I did."
Li Yuan's heart was shocked and he looked at his uncle in shock.
"Full-time warrior, dangerous."
Li Changzhou smiled calmly and said, "But since ancient times, which good man has not dreamed of galloping on the battlefield and pursuing the limits of martial arts?" "As a human being, I can truly stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods! To explore the limits of life."
"There is no hope for my life."
"But you still have it." Li Changzhou looked at Li Yuan with a smile. The helmet on his head was covered with mud and looked a little sloppy.
Li Yuan listened with bated breath.
"If you want to be a full-time warrior, this amount of money, the money in this contract, is far from enough." Li Changzhou continued: "But your future will be trapped by this contract."
After hesitating for a moment, Li Yuan couldn't help but say, "Uncle, according to the information I found, as long as the performance is good enough, Xingkong Wudian will upgrade the contract."
"But what if the Starry Sky Martial Hall doesn't upgrade?" Li Changzhou asked in return: "Why should we give the initiative to others for our own destiny?"
Li Yuan woke up.
"Your uncle Zhong is a good person, but as an ordinary member, he cannot decide many things." Li Changzhou said, "Besides, as far as I know, if you sign a contract with Wudian in advance, your development in the future when you go to Wudao University will be restricted."
"Restricted?" Li Yuan was stunned. This was something he didn't know.
"The five famous schools in Ruxia Country are funded by the state." Li Changzhou said, "If you sign a contract with Wudian in advance, you are destined to join Wudian after graduating from university... What do you think the school will give some special resources to when they have to choose between you and another special student recruited by the Martial Arts Hall?"
Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly.
Signing a contract with Wudian in advance is indeed a constraint in a sense.
"This contract."
"Go to the Martial Hall on Sunday and check with your Uncle Zhong first. If you can be promoted to C-level and there are passive upgrade clauses, such as if you reach a certain standard before a certain age, you will be automatically upgraded to B or even A-level. There is no harm in signing it." Li Changzhou said patiently.
"If you want to be a full-time warrior, the Wudian is indeed a better choice, but if the restrictions are too great, you don't have to sign it."
"Li Yuan, I know what you're thinking. You want to help your family." Li Changzhou stared at Li Yuan: "But remember, your uncle is not dead yet."
"It's not time for you to completely support this family yet."
"At least, before you go to college, don't worry. All you have to do is devote yourself to cultivation. Do you understand?" Li Changzhou said solemnly.
"Yes, uncle." Li Yuan nodded heavily.
"I believe you, I won't be wrong." Li Changzhou looked at Li Yuan.
"Now that Spark Martial Hall and Starry Sky Martial Hall are not signing contracts, it's because they have no vision."
"Once your college entrance exam results come out, or even once you enter university, you will naturally receive a better contract."
"It's not too late to sign."
……
Uncle Li Changzhou's words calmed Li Yuan down completely and allowed him to think about the matter more calmly.
"Uncle is right."
"Why are you in such a hurry? In the end, they are the ones who should be anxious." Li Yuan smiled.
Continue to practice.
Two days later, it was Saturday, and Li Yuan went to school and went home as usual.
Saturday afternoon.
All senior high school students are taking martial arts lessons in the martial arts classroom today.
school entrance.
Several black cars arrived slowly, and six figures got out of the cars one after another.
Five of them were wearing black suits, except for one middle-aged man who was wearing a black Tang suit. He looked ordinary, but inexplicably gave people an invisible aura.
"Palace Master Wan."
"Master Wan, welcome to our school." Principal Tan Zhenlong and several other vice principals stepped forward and greeted them with smiles.
"Iron Tower." The middle-aged man looked directly at Xu Bo who was standing in the distance and smiled: "It's been a long time since we parted ways in the Star Realm."
"Old Wan." Xu Bo then stepped forward and grinned, "I didn't expect that the new hall master of the Guanshan branch of the Xinghuo Martial Hall would be you."
"welcome!"
