Chapter 9 Daoist Baoshou is short of money again!

In the evening.

Yang Wenli gave a new list of demon hunting.

Taoist Master Baoshou held the list of hunting demons in his hand and searched for Jinyang County, but there were no traces of demons.

As a true master of orthodox Taoism, Taoist Master Baoshou has no longer been bothered to use the bear to make money.

So he left Jinyang County with the demon hunting list disappointed.

Before returning to Fengyuan Mountain, he went around and compared the thirteen stores, but didn't buy it!

The next day, early in the morning, on Fengyuan Mountain.

Taoist Baoshou has perfected his skills and practices, stretched his body and his eyes shining.

After a night of practice, the true energy has increased a little more.

Such a slow progress in cultivation has made Taoist Master Baoshou more determined to kill demons, practice the way for heaven, and uphold justice.

Looking at the rising sun, he carried his hands on his back, looked into the distance, and fell into thinking.

The little bear opened his sleepy eyes and suddenly felt a strong sense of justice arose on the body of Taoist Master Baoshou!

He is worthy of being the head of the Zhengdao Immortal Sect!

The rising sun rises and the light is bright.

Wang Shan came to Baihong Temple.

But this time, he was not alone here, but also brought a gray-haired old man with an old man.

This is Zheng Yuan, who once shined his hometown, was demoted, wasted himself and wasted for 16 years.

"Master Baoshou is much younger than I thought."

Zheng Yuan was a little surprised and said, "Your drawings alone are not comparable to ordinary craftsmen. In my opinion, if you are willing and can be recommended, you may not be unable to enter the Ministry of Works. You are trained by the court and will be limited in the future."

He thought that the person who painted that stack of drawings must be an experienced Taoist priest who was proficient in construction. He did not expect that he would be so young. To put it bluntly, he was a young Taoist priest who was still young.

Taoist Master Baoshou laughed and said, "Things in officialdom are not something that can reach the top with proficiency in skills. The Taoist is a practitioner who does not seek to be a master of talent. He only wants to build this place to seek immortals and ask for the Tao."

Zheng Yuan seemed to be self-deprecating and said, "I see the place where Taoist Master lives, it is like the dragon nest in the Immortal Palace."

When Taoist Master Baoshou heard this, he did not answer, but asked, "Is it true that Mr. Zheng is sure of my Baihong Temple construction?"

Zheng Yuan heard this respectful saying of "Old Zheng" and his expression was a little slow. However, he said solemnly: "The Baihong Temple that the Taoist Master wanted to build is very different from the ordinary Taoist temple in front of him. In terms of the scale and the subtleties of details, it is still on the palm of the Guangshan Domain."

Taoist Master Baoshou looked as usual, with a slight smile on his face.

Wang Shan was standing aside, but he could hear a confused look.

Zheng Yuan watched from side to side, raised his eyes and looked up at the upper end of Fengyuan Mountain.

"If the construction of this Taoist temple is entirely marked according to your drawings, it will cost a lot of money."

"And on your drawings, you have to build them on the mountain, which is even more difficult."

"Just just to carry materials and to get water up the mountain, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources."

"In this way, the amount of money spent is a huge sum of money."

"Even if the richest man in Guangshan is going to spend such money, he will be in trouble."

Zheng Yuan looked at Taoist Master Baoshou and asked, "I heard that Bai Hongguan has always been poor. Can he really take out this money?"

Taoist Master Baoshou carried his hands on his back and said lightly: "In terms of money, you don't need to worry. Pay the wages every three days, and you will never be in arrears. If there is insufficient funds, you can stop building!"

The bear on the tree behind him felt quite distressed when he heard this.

How can the Taoist temple built on the mountain still have to be extra money?

When it was feeling distressed, it suddenly realized that the hand that Taoist Master Baoshou, who was carrying behind him, had already been tightly held without any blood.

“…”

Seeing that he was so confident, Zheng Yuan sighed in his heart and said seriously: "Master Baoshou, the Taoist temple you want to build is still more difficult than the mansion of the palm of your country. The craftsmen you recruited are also all bricklayers of ordinary people. The skills are not on the same level as the craftsmen of the court's Ministry of Works. It is not easy to build such a magnificent Taoist temple as you wish."

He fell, took a deep breath and said, "I can only spend more energy, monitor and teach them personally, so that they don't make mistakes, but the construction is very difficult and takes longer."

Taoist Master Baoshou laughed and said, "Since Mr. Zheng is sure, I will follow me up the mountain and choose a location."

Then the three of them climbed up the mountain and did not come down until dusk.

When he went down to the foot of the mountain, Zheng Yuan spoke, saying that he had a rough idea in his heart and just waited for calculations tonight and could start construction at any time.

Then he heard him say, "The Taoist priest is a scholar from the Xuanmen. Can you choose a good day?"

Taoist Master Baoshou laughed and said, "As the saying goes, it is better to hit the day than choose a date. I count on my fingers and say that the auspicious day of the zodiac will be tomorrow. There are no taboos, so you can start work."

As soon as these words were said, both Zheng Yuan and Wang Shan were quite shocked.

But as ordinary people, they didn't say much.

Logically speaking, as a maid of Xuanmen, Taoist Master Baoshou must have studied this theory carefully, and probably had an idea in his mind.

And just after the two of them said goodbye and left.

I saw a little black bear jumping from the tree and jumping over, but I looked very depressed.

Once the construction starts, you have to spend money.

The bounty received from the government has not yet been warmed up.

Thinking of this, the bear became more and more depressed.

"I have to make money."

Taoist Master Baoshou said this, took a deep breath, took out his account book...the Demon Hunting List!

There are 297 demons in this hunting list.

There were 323 demons in the previous hunting list.

Compared to last month, there are only twenty-six demons missing on the hunting list.

But according to Yang Wenli, there were not only twenty-six demons killed in Daxia last month, but one hundred and seventy-six.

Because within this month, many demons sneaked in from the border of Daxia and crossed the blockade of the Demon Hunting Mansion.

Most of them were killed, and some were hidden within the territory of Daxia, missing their whereabouts, and thus were listed on the hunting list.

"Last night, you asked you to identify these guys on the hunting list. Have you recognized them clearly?"

"I've recognized it." The little bear said in a muffled voice.

"The silver required to build the Taoist temple is hundreds of times higher than the original ones." Taoist Master Baoshou said: "This time we set a small goal and we will kill ten demons in the Qi Refining Realm within this month."

"Hundreds of times higher? Are they treacherous people so crazy?" Xiao Xiong exclaimed.

"It's not that they are crazy, but that I chose the extravagant Taoist temple."

Taoist Master Baoshou sighed.

It was not easy to make money, so I could only rely on the bear to sway... I would hit an unfair thing, and punish evil and promote good out of righteous indignation.

What he originally considered was a simplified version of the Taoist temple on the drawings.

It can be built by using the simplest materials and the simplest style according to the arrangement of the formation, which costs about thousands of taels of silver.

But since he discovered the way to make money by hunting list, he upgraded the Taoist temple on the drawings to the highest level in his cognition.

Not only is the overall scale expanded, but the rockery, pavilions, towers, and palaces are all arranged according to the formation, carved railings and jade, making them grand and grand.

But in this way, there is one of the biggest drawbacks!

Short of money!

Extremely short of money!

Taoist Master Baoshou is currently extremely short of money!

So his eyes were red and he looked at the hunting list.

Those are the countless silver coins he is active outside!

That is also his thousands of years of cultivation that he has been active outside!

And all kinds of Taoist magical powers that he lost outside!

——

At the same time.

Luyuan County.

Between the mountains and forests.

There was a loud bang!

I saw a huge monster pounced on me from the other end of the mountain.

This is a huge tiger, falling on the ground, as if the mountains and forests were shaking.

"Meng Shanjun, you suffered a loss outside. If you don't go to find your master, why do you come here to find me?"

A man in black robe walked out of the forest, with a young appearance and a cold and resolute expression.

The tiger lay on the ground, speaking and said, "Uncle Master, my master went to Yuanhe and made a deal with the Chixuan Dragon. He promised to help it get out of the predicament and avoid being surrounded and killed by the Demon Hunting Mansion. Now that he has not returned yet, he has to come to find Uncle Master and avenge his disciples."

The man in black robe looked at its tail and said coldly: "You have always been cautious in your actions. You like to hide in the dark and drive the accomplices to test them. Why did you have your tail broken?"

The tiger said in a low voice: "It's hard to describe it."

It suddenly raised its claws and swept it.

A cloth bag was thrown out.

The man in black robe waved his hand.

The cloth bag shattered and a thick tiger tail fell out.

"Sword energy in the God Refining Realm?"
