Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 7: Money Must Not Be Flaunted

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

Jiang Fan got up after only three hours of sleep.

Apart from being too excited to sleep, the most important thing was that he had begun to master the Soaring Snake Technique, becoming a Skin Tempering Realm Martial Artist, which made him extrely energetic.

Often he could fully eliminate fatigue with just a few hours of sleep.

At this mont, Su Weiwei also ca out of another room, dressed in a thin Ruqun, standing gracefully. Under the gentle sunlight, she appeared charming and enchanting, with skin as smooth as jade.

Though only fifteen or sixteen, she had the allure of a mature woman.

Her body, like a ripe peach, was simply mouth-watering.

This couldn't be helped; after all, she was gifted.

Truly naturally beautiful people, even if dressed in burlap, exude indescribable charm, overshadowing all others.

"Brother Jiang, why are you up so early?"

Su Weiwei looked at Jiang Fan with so surprise.

She originally thought Brother Jiang would sleep a little longer, having just recovered from a severe illness. Unexpectedly, he got up so early.

"Isn't there already no rice at ho?"

"So I got up early today to go to Tonghe County and buy so grain back."

Jiang Fan shared his plan for the day.

Originally, he didn't plan to go to Tonghe County, being that it was a good ten to twenty miles away from Osmanthus Village.

If it were an ordinary person, it would take at least two or three hours to get there.

Going back and forth, it might take a whole day.

Moreover, the current situation was so chaotic, there might be bandits on the road.

But since he had started mastering the Soaring Snake Technique and beca a Skin Tempering Realm Martial Artist,

His confidence in his martial skills gave him the courage to believe that going to Tonghe County to buy so grain shouldn't be a big problem.

If he was a bit more careful, there wouldn't be any danger.

After all, in this area, a Skin Tempering Realm Martial Artist counts as a minor expert; most people were just ordinary people.

"There really is no grain at ho."

"But we paid the monthly salary yesterday, and the family is out of money now."

Su Weiwei said helplessly.

Of course, she also wanted to buy grain, but without money, she couldn't buy anything.

"Who said there's no money at ho."

"Look what this is."

Jiang Fan smiled slightly, took out twenty taels of silver from his body, and handed it to Su Weiwei.

"What? This, this is twenty taels of silver?"

"Brother Jiang, where on earth did you get it from?"

Seeing this, Su Weiwei was completely dumbfounded, her beautiful eyes widened, and her heart uncontrollably pounded wildly.

She had lived for more than ten years and this was the first ti she had seen such a huge sum of money.

After all, twenty taels of silver were enough to cover a family's expenses for several years.

Now it was just brought out like this, which was simply too exaggerated.

If it were exposed, who knew how many people in the village would beco greedy.

Even various thieves coming to visit their house would be normal.

"Don't worry about it, it's acquired through proper ans, so there won't be any problems."

"Since it's rare to go to Tonghe County once, is there anything you would like?"

"If you want so silk clothes, you can also buy them back."

Jiang Fan chuckled.

"No, wealth should not be flaunted."

"Although I don't know where Brother got these silvers, if the village people ca to know of it, there wouldn't be a day of peace for us."

"Everyone else wears burlap, and I wear silk, anyone would know that Brother got rich."

"Idle village gossip isn't much, but the most feared are those Dragon King Gang rascals."

"If they knew Brother had money, they might co to our house to extort."

Su Weiwei spoke very earnestly.

As a girl, she naturally wanted to wear pretty clothes too.

Unfortunately, living in Osmanthus Village, she couldn't do such things.

Once you stand out, once you are conspicuous, you get beaten.

Previously, there was a family in Osmanthus Village, who, after catching a Treasure Fish, earned fifteen taels of silver.

The news spread all over Osmanthus Village and almost everyone knew about it.

As a result, that night they were robbed.

Even when they resisted, the thieves killed the entire family of five, eradicating the entire household.

What was once a good thing turned into a disaster.

Sotis a sudden windfall might not be a good thing, but rather the start of a calamity.

This left Su Weiwei very frightened, leaving many shadows in her heart.

"Hmm, you're right, we still need to keep a low profile."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan nodded in agreent; he almost made a big mistake.

While it was normal to treat your wife well, sotis it can be too much.

Fortunately, Su Weiwei reminded him in ti; otherwise, it might have invited disaster.

Living in chaotic tis, being cautious is only natural.

Thinking of this, he felt very warm inside as his child bride was indeed a good helper.

"But Brother Jiang, why not go to the Fish Cage to buy grain, but rather go to Tonghe County?"

"The journey to Tonghe County is really too far."

"It's said that there might be bandits on the road."

Su Weiwei was worried about Jiang Fan's safety on the road.

In fact, there was a large market near Osmanthus Village—a Fish Cage.

Fishern from a dozen or so fishing villages nearby would bring their catch to sell at the Fish Cage.

Of course, it wasn't just fish sold there; all kinds of grains, vegetables, and daily necessities were available too.

So many fishern would also buy various supplies there.

"The grain at the Fish Cage is too expensive; it's cheaper in Tonghe County."

"And I need to buy a lot of grain, which is not suitable to buy at the Fish Cage."

Jiang Fan said in a deep voice.

He didn't want to go to Fish Cage because it was controlled by the Dragon King Gang, everywhere inside were Dragon King Gang people.

What's more odious was that the grain, vegetables, etc. sold there were two to three tenths more expensive than in Tonghe County.

It's said that from birth to death, the Dragon King Gang takes a cut.

But the fishern around had no choice but to buy at Fish Cage.

After all, Fish Cage was very close to the village, Tonghe County was too far away.

If you t robbers on the road, you'd be finished.

For safety, most fishern would choose to buy grain at Fish Cage and endure Dragon King Gang's high prices.

But he didn't want to endure anymore.

He'd rather go to Tonghe County than be exploited by Dragon King Gang like that.

That Dragon King Gang shouldn't expect to earn a penny from him.

"Of course, you don't need to worry about my safety, I'm already a Martial Artist."

Jiang Fan said straightforwardly.

Although becoming a Martial Artist was a secret, Su Weiwei was his wife day and night.

It was impossible for her not to notice his changes.

Rather than being uncovered, it's better to be frank.

Moreover, he trusted Su Weiwei, as they were husband and wife, partners in fate.

And Su Weiwei wasn't the gossipy type; she was a woman who could keep secrets.

So he straightforwardly said it, to reassure Su Weiwei.

"What? Brother has beco a Martial Artist?"

Su Weiwei's beautiful eyes widened, looking at Jiang Fan incredulously.

Though she lived in Osmanthus Village, she knew what kind of existence Martial Artists were.

After all, the Dragon King Gang was so arrogant, wasn't it relying on the power of Martial Artists?

But becoming a Martial Artist was exceptionally difficult. Osmanthus Village also had people who went to martial arts schools but achieved nothing because learning martial arts requires talent. Without enough talent, it's impossible to begin.

The question was when did her man beco a Martial Artist.
