Chapter 199 If you are stupid, money will come quickly.
Feng Qingquan came to Qingshan Martial Arts Academy the next day and found Hu was indeed a little worried about Hu Wanqing. After all, Shi Feizhe was really scary.
"Are you okay after being taken away?" Feng Qingquan asked hesitantly as he looked at Hu Wanqing who was gnawing on a roasted chicken leg with oil dripping from her mouth.
He had already imagined countless plots in his mind, but he never expected that Hu Wanqing would be like this.
"Good, very good! The food in Qingshan Martial Arts Academy's cafeteria is delicious!" Hu Wanqing said in a squeak.
"..."
Damn it, I worried for nothing all day.
Feng Qingquan said with a dark face: "Then you will continue to stay here?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Hu Wanqing nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and said, "From now on, Qingshan Martial Arts Academy is my home! Dean Shi gives me ten taels of silver every month, and I can't spend it all!"
"..."
You can be bribed with just a little bit of silver, Hu Wanqing. Where is the dignity of your fox clan?
"Food and accommodation are provided! It's such a big cafeteria, you can eat as much as you want! You can also be allocated a house after working for a few years!" Hu Wanqing added.
Well... Foxes will never be slaves unless they are provided with food and shelter.
For a fox demon like Hu Wanqing who roams the world, the simple thing is to stay alive.
Money, power and nothing else mattered, because as long as you were alive, you could improve yourself as you got older and become a great demon.
The big demon is what they are pursuing!
It is difficult for people in the martial arts world to survive, and it is naturally not easy for the monsters in the martial arts world either.
Feng Qingquan nodded and said, "Then I will continue to wander around the world!"
"See you in the rivers and lakes~~" Hu Wanqing said, waving her hand holding the roasted chicken leg.
She is now in human form.
In Qingshan Martial Arts Academy, the human form is more convenient.
"..."
Feng Qingquan didn't say anything, just turned around and left.
He already knew that most fox demons were heartless.
In the Human-Demon Family, there are many records of the personalities of the demon tribe. Although there are occasionally some weirdos among the demon tribe, the overall situation is pretty much the same.
But... there will be no one to share the burden with in the future, and it will be too uncomfortable to be criticized by Master Ma every day.
The horse demon has a notoriously bad temper!
After seeing Feng Qingquan leave, Hu Wanqing finished the roasted chicken leg in a few bites and licked the oil off her fingers. It was really delicious!
She thought of Shi Feizhe’s earnest teachings after class yesterday.
"Qingshan Martial Arts Academy is in short supply of teaching aid teachers. If you have any members of the same clan, you can introduce them here. If you introduce one, I will give you one or two taels of silver as tea money!"
"What if I introduce a hundred of them? Wouldn't that be a hundred taels?"
"Introduce a hundred and I'll give you double!"
"That is……"
"One hundred means two hundred taels!"
"It's a deal?"
"A word is settled!"
Hu Wanqing wiped her mouth and her eyes rolled around. After a day of observation, she found that Qingshan Martial Arts Academy, or Jicheng, was completely different from other places.
The atmosphere here is very special.
Compared to people in other places, they are more… honest? Equal? Or peaceful?
For Hu Wanqing, this was a feeling that was difficult to describe because she had never felt it anywhere else.
It’s worth selling your own kind… no, introducing them over here.
The foxes naturally have ways of communicating with each other.
So she licked her nearest greasy lips and went to the rooftop of the Qingshan Martial Arts Academy teaching building.
Unexpectedly, there were two people on the roof of the teaching building, a man and a woman, both students.
"Ahem..." She cleared her throat deliberately, frowned, and scared the two students away.
Watching the two students running down the stairs in panic, she let out a squeaking laugh.
Being a teacher is quite interesting!
When there was no one on the rooftop, she would make a strange sound, like a bird singing or a fox barking. The sound was very soft and melodious, but it drifted far away.
Every quarter of an hour, she made this strange sound.
Two hours had passed and still no messenger came to respond to her.
"Shouldn't that be the case? Doesn't the messenger go to work?" She was a little puzzled.
"Or maybe I haven't called the messenger for a long time, so the method is not right?" She thought about it and tried again.
Another hour passed before she finally received the messenger.
A particularly large crow flew in the sky and landed in front of Hu Wanqing. It said, "Five taels for a message, four taels for a verbal message, don't bother me if I'm poor!"
"Didn't it cost two taels of silver to report a message in the past, and oral messages were free?" Hu Wanqing said.
"What era were the prices back then? We messengers have to make a living too. Some of us have to fly across half the country for a letter. It must be tiring!" The crow cackled and said a lot.
Hu Wanqing was a little hesitant when she heard the price.
What if her fellow countrymen didn’t come, wouldn’t she be at a loss?
Sending letters is too expensive!
"Hurry up! Do you want to send me off or I will fly away!" The crow urged, "My time is very valuable!"
Seeing the crow was about to fly away, Hu Wanqing gritted her teeth and said, "Send it! Of course I'll send the letter! Send it to my hometown, Qingqiu!"
"Qingqiu? Oh my god, it's so far!" The crow felt that it was a bit far and didn't want to send him off, so he said, "Find the next bird, I'm not going that direction."
"Don't!" Hu Wanqing grabbed the crow and said, "Do you think I don't know that you black birds are all the same? You dislike this and that, and just want to send letters that pay more and travel a shorter distance! You don't want to send it, but others do?"
"Let me go! Let me go!" The crow was held by Hu Wanqing, and it cackled, "Are you going to kill me? If you kill me, no one in the world will deliver letters to you anymore!"
"Please send Qingqiu off!" Hu Wanqing said, letting go of the crow.
"Money!" The crow stretched out its left wing unhappily.
Hu Wanqing took a piece of silver and placed it on her wings.
"Four taels of silver? What message do you want to deliver? Please tell me first. I can't remember it if it's too long!" The crow looked at the four taels of silver with disdain, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
"I'm in Jicheng. The people here are very nice. There's plenty of money and delicious food. Food and accommodation are provided. You should come quickly!" said Hu Wanqing.
"It's too long, I can't remember it!" the crow said, turning his head.
"What? It's obviously a very ordinary sentence." Hu Wanqing said.
"It's too long, I can't remember it!" The crow still looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Damn it, if you weren’t the messenger, I would bite you to death!
Hu Wanqing was so angry that her teeth itched. After thinking for a while, she said, "The people in Jicheng are stupid and have a lot of money. Come quickly!"
"Oh?" Crow nodded and repeated, "People in Jicheng are stupid and have a lot of money, come quickly!"
"Yes!" said Hu Wanqing.
"I know!" The crow flapped its wings and took off, drawing a graceful arc in the sky, leaving behind a message: "When delivering letters, choose Xuanniao. Xuanniao sends fast letters, and life is worry-free!"
Wuyou, you are a hammer!
Hu Wanqing cursed in her heart, where’s my money!
That was the money Shi Feizhe gave her in advance after class yesterday.
It was this advance payment that won over Hu Wanqing's heart.
The money I just got is gone in just one day.
Life as a fox is really hard, sob...
Demon Shi treats people with sincerity!
