Ling Tian was overjoyed. Since Qin Da had agreed so readily, then these two matters would not be difficult for Qin Da to handle. This was something that Ling Tian had neglected. Qin Da was renowned for his erudition. Not to mention the ordinary aristocratic families, even in the current royal court, there were many people under Qin Da's tutelage. As long as Qin Da opened his mouth, the two matters that Ling Tian asked for would be as easy as blowing off dust!
Ling Tian smiled and said, "If that is the case, then I am relieved. Tomorrow, I will get some banknotes from my grandmother and hand them over to you. En, I estimate that five million taels should be enough. "
"Five million taels?!" Qin Da staggered! He almost fell down. Even if you want to buy a big house, you don't need so much money, right? Five million taels, you can build a palace with that amount!
"En." Ling Tian nodded and looked at Qin Da with a smile. "Teacher, the weapons workshop that the Xiao family gave me, I only need to keep some experienced craftsmen. If I keep all of them, the Xiao family will not be willing to part with them, and I don't dare to use them."
Qin Da sucked in a breath of cold air, "Then, you need to find at least two thousand people to replace them?"
Ling Tian smiled, "Teacher, you don't need to be nervous. As long as you have the strength, it will be fine. These two thousand people are not difficult to find. The money will be mainly spent on the house. The house must be as big as possible. Second, it must be remote. It is best if it is in a place outside the city where it will not attract attention. Third, the location must be good. There must be consideration for both offense and defense. En, just these three points. After finding it, no matter what the house is like, I will make big changes. And most of the money will be used on these changes! "
Mister Qin heaved a sigh of relief, "So that's the case." Suddenly, he frowned and said, "Now that you mention it, this old man has thought of a more suitable place."
"Oh?" Ling Tian was very interested and asked anxiously, "Where is it?"
Qin Da said, "It's by the Green Willow River in the south of the city, at the foot of Victory Mountain, Prince Fu's side courtyard of the Liang dynasty. It's just that although the location is not bad, with a mountain on one side and a river on the other, it's easy to defend and hard to attack. It was originally built by the Liang Dynasty's Emperor for his younger brother, Prince Fu. However, when more than half of the houses were built, the Liang Dynasty was destroyed by my army. After that, everyone thought that it was an ominous place. Although the location was good, it was now basically a ruin. No one cared about him at all. However, the general framework was still there. After some repairs and building a wall, it would be barely usable. If Young Master takes a fancy to it, you don't have to buy it. Just bring someone to repair it. I guarantee that no one will care about this matter. "
Ling Tian rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment before saying, "How about this, Mister, I'll follow you out of the city to visit a friend tomorrow?"
Qin Da was startled, but immediately understood. Ling Tian wanted to follow him to see if the location of Prince Fu's courtyard was to his liking. And visiting a friend was the best excuse! No one could say that a student couldn't follow his master to visit a friend. Therefore, Ling Tian could go out openly, and no one would ask, and no one would worry. It was really a wonderful idea!
Especially now that Ling Tian had just turned the house upside down, he needed to go out to lie low for a while. Otherwise, if he was still hanging around Lin Zhan and Ling Xiao every day, who knows when he would be caught and beaten up by his angry grandfather and father. Especially when Ling Tian was still in the Ling House, Ling Tian was even more unwilling to see this shrewd old man come out and ruin his plans.
Thinking of this point, Qin Da suddenly smiled, and looked at Ling Tian with a teasing expression.
Since the matter was settled, Qin Da didn't stay any longer. After a few teasing words, he took his leave and returned to his room. On the other side, even when Ling Tian and Qin Da were discussing, Ling Jian, who didn't stop training for even a moment, had almost reached the limit of his body. His whole body looked like it had just been fished out of the water. His hair was sticking to his scalp, and his body was steaming. Ling Tian smiled approvingly, and put a few large pieces of charcoal into the brazier. The brazier that was about to go out suddenly burned fiercely again. In a short moment, the room was so warm that it made people unable to wear clothes.
At this moment, Ling Tian suddenly remembered something. It seemed that when Qin Da was here, he had forgotten about the brazier … No wonder the old master didn't stop for a moment and slipped away, it was because he was cold …
Ling Tian shook his head and smiled, saying, "Ling Jian, slow down, recover step by step, then go to the brazier and change your clothes." Ling Tian knew deeply that with the amount of training Ling Jian was going through, if he were to stop resting all of a sudden, not only would he not make any progress, it would also cause great harm to his body. Therefore, there must be a period of time to buffer, to achieve the best results of training.
Ling Jian acknowledged, and indeed slowed down his movements. When he finally stopped, without waiting for him to move, Ling Tian had already draped a coat over his body, and pressed him to sit by the brazier. Ling Jian's lips trembled, saying, "Thank you, young master!"
Ling Tian looked at him deeply, saying, "Ling Jian, if one day you die protecting me, I won't say thank you to you! Do you understand what I mean? "
Ling Jian said emotionally, "To die protecting young master, it is Ling Jian's honor!"
Ling Tian patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Therefore, you don't need to say thank you to me."
Pausing, Ling Tian turned his head, "Between men, thank you can't be said with the mouth. These two words could never be uttered by just relying on one's mouth. It's too pale. "
Ling Jian's eyes flashed, and he lowered his head, "Yes!" Although Ling Jian couldn't really understand the meaning of Ling Tian's words, he had already secretly remembered it in his heart. For Ling Jian, every word and action of the young master was worth learning, worth imitating. Even if he didn't understand now, there would be a day when he would. Perhaps at that time, he would understand the young master's intentions. Ling Jian thought.
The next day, Ling Chen. Ling Tian first went to Old Lady Ling's room, muttering something. After that, he followed Qin Da and brought Ling Jian, followed by a group of guards, and stepped into the carriage that Qin Da was visiting his friends.
Behind him, at the entrance of the main hall, stood several people. Everyone had different expressions. Grandfather Ling was still sulking, and didn't even come out. Ling Xiao was still angry, as if he couldn't wait to grab Ling Tian and beat him up. Chu Ting 'er's face was full of concern, and Old Lady Ling's face was full of pride. Further away, a figure looked at Ling Tian's small figure with a serious expression, as if he was facing a strong enemy! His face was full of contemplation and inquiry. It was Xiao FengHan.
Xiao FengHan looked for a while, then said in a low voice, "This little guy went out, there must be something. Follow him and see what he is doing." There was no one behind him, not even a shadow. However, right after he finished speaking, a faint figure flashed under the sunlight and disappeared without a trace. A word was left in the air, "Yes!"
Ling Kong hurried back to his room, his expression anxious. Bending over the table, he grabbed a piece of paper and hurriedly wrote a few words: At the foot of Victory Mountain, beside Green Willow River, kill Ling Tian, no mistakes!
In a flash, a pure white carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew from the East Courtyard of the Ling House. It circled in the air and flew towards the South. Looking at the carrier pigeon flying away, Ling Kong's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and his ferocious face was full of excitement.
Inside the Ling House, there was a tall attic. It was the place where Old Lady Ling usually chanted and worshipped Buddha. At this moment, Old Lady Ling was standing in front of the window, holding a scroll of Buddhist scriptures, but her eyes were fixed on the East. Seeing the carrier pigeon suddenly fly into the sky from the East Courtyard, her eyes were as cold as ice! Killing intent overflowed!
