Although he had inherited his parents' inheritance, to Fang Yuan, the amount of time he had accumulated was still too short.
He could not produce vitality leaves every day, as it consumed a lot of time. Usually, the nine vitality leaves that he produced would be used up in half a day.
Fang Yuan pondered for a while. This red steel Relic Gu was only available for sale for one day. To raise such a large amount of Yuan stone in such a short time, the only way was to pawn off his wine tavern or bamboo buildings.
There was nothing to feel pity about.
A year later, it would be the wolf tide. In his memories, under the siege of the wolf pack, Guyue village was on the verge of collapse several times. The most dangerous time, even the main door was broken. The clan leader and the elders restrained the thunder crown wolf, while Guyue Qing Shu used his life to block the door, stabilizing the situation.
The wolf tide would cause severe losses to the three clans of Qing Mao mountain. Although it would not be nine out of ten empty houses, at least fifty percent of the population would be gone.
At that time, there would be many houses but few people, what would be the point of renting out the bamboo buildings? The wine tavern was also close to the eastern gate, who would dare to drink at the frontlines? Even if someone wanted to drink, the wine tavern would have already been taken over by the clan and transformed into a defensive tower.
Right now, many people in the clan had greatly underestimated the severity of the wolf tide. At this time, if they could get rid of the wine tavern and bamboo buildings, they would be able to sell them for the best price.
"Wealth is just an external object, only one's own cultivation is the foundation. However, selling it to the clan is still a bit cheaper. If I sell it to an individual, the price will be higher. But who has such a large sum of money to buy my bamboo buildings and wine tavern? Such a huge transaction. It is not something that can be negotiated on the first meeting. Both sides need to inspect and bargain, this will waste time. And I only have one day. Wait a moment, maybe there is someone who can … "
Fang Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking of a certain person.
This person was none other than his uncle, Guyue Dong Tu. His uncle and aunt were shrewd and stingy. These ten years, they had been operating the wine tavern, bamboo buildings and selling vitality leaves.
His uncle and aunt were shrewd and stingy. For the past ten years, they had been running a wine shop, a bamboo building, and selling Vitality Leaves. Moreover, this business was originally managed by them.
Knowing the bottom line, they could save a lot of time to inspect. More importantly, they urgently needed a portion of the family's assets to continue operating.
More importantly, they urgently needed a portion of the family's assets to continue operating. No matter how much money they had, it was like water without a source. Seeing their Yuan stone dwindling, anyone would be worried.
It could be said, his uncle and aunt were the most suitable trading partners.
Thinking so, Fang Yuan no hesitated. After leaving the treehouse, he walked towards Gu Yue Dong Tu's residence.
The one who opened the door for him was Shen Cui.
"Ah, it's, it's you!" She was shocked.
Soon, she realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, and her face paled in fear. Fang Yuan was now a Rank two Gu Master, but she was just a mortal, the difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
More importantly, Fang Yuan even dared to kill the Mo family's servants. Then, after dismembering the corpse, he would send it back to the Mo Family.
"This servant greets Young Master Fang Yuan and welcomes Young Master Fang Yuan home." Shen Cui was so frightened that her whole body trembled. Her knees softened and she knelt on the ground.
"Home?" Fang Yuan strode into the courtyard. He looked at everything that was familiar to him, and a hint of mockery appeared on his face. There was no nostalgia or nostalgia.
After a year, he came here again.
Compared to his impression, this place was much more deserted. Just like what Fangzheng said, some of the servants had been sold or fired.
Fang Yuan's sudden arrival naturally alarmed Uncle and Aunt.
As the housekeeper, Mother Shen rushed over immediately. She bowed and groveled as she welcomed Fang Yuan into the living room and personally served him tea.
Fang Yuan sat on a chair and looked around the reception hall.
Much of the furniture had disappeared, and the layout was much simpler and shabbier.
However, this didn't mean that his uncle and aunt didn't have any savings.
"Guyue Dong Tu is quite shrewd. This is his way of protecting himself. He has already retired, and his battle power has declined sharply. Most importantly, he lost the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass, which means that he has lost his trump card to maintain his social network. He can no longer exert his influence. "
A man's wealth is his own ruin.
After Fang Yuan inherited the inheritance, he attracted the jealousy and covetous eyes of many clansmen.
As for his uncle and aunt, they were also facing the same problem. The large amount of savings in their hands was both a blessing and a curse.
To them, not revealing one's wealth was the right way to survive.
At this moment, a series of footsteps could be heard.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Then, his aunt appeared at the door.
"Fang Yuan, how dare you come here!" When she saw Fang Yuan, she was instantly enraged. She screamed, "You ungrateful little wolf cub. How did we raise you? In the end, you treated us like this. Do you still have a conscience? Was your conscience eaten by a dog? "
"You still have the face to come here, and still have the face to sit here and drink tea? Did you specially come here to see us in dire straits? Now that you've seen it, are you satisfied?! "
She pointed at Fang Yuan with one hand and placed her other hand on her waist, scolding like a shrew.
If not for Fang Yuan wearing the eye-catching Rank two Gu Master attire, reminding her, she would have already pounced on Fang Yuan and torn him apart.
Fang Yuan was pointed at by his aunt and scolded, but his expression didn't change, as if he didn't hear anything.
After a year, although his aunt's yellow face was filled with anger and malevolence, it couldn't hide her haggard appearance.
Her clothes had already been changed into simple hemp clothes, and the accessories on her head had lessened. She didn't wear any makeup, making her look like a monkey.
Fang Yuan taking back the family property had a considerable impact and impact on her life.
Towards her scolding, Fang Yuan didn't take it to heart. He calmly picked up his cup and drank a mouthful of tea, speaking in a leisurely tone, "This time I came, I want to sell the wine shop and bamboo buildings. I wonder if Aunt and Uncle are interested?"
"Pei! You ingrate, what kind of good intentions do you have? Hmph, you want to sell the wine shop and bamboo buildings … "His aunt's anger suddenly stagnated. She finally reacted, her face showing a look of disbelief. "What, you want to sell the wine shop and bamboo buildings?"
Fang Yuan put down the cup in his hand, leaning back on the chair, closing his eyes to rest, "It's better to call Uncle to talk to me."
His aunt gritted her teeth, still in disbelief. Her eyes seemed to be spewing fire, fiercely glaring at Fang Yuan. She gritted her teeth and said, "I know, you're purposely playing with me, that's why you said that! Once I agree. I'll suffer your ruthless taunts and ridicule. Do you really think I'm a fool for you to play with me like this? "
This was purely the heart of a petty person.
Fang Yuan sighed in his heart, then said one sentence. This caused his aunt's attitude to change —
"If you continue to talk nonsense, then I'll leave. I believe that others will also be very interested in this family property. When the time comes, when I sell it to others, don't regret it. "
His aunt was instantly stunned, "You really want to sell these properties?"
"I'll only wait for five minutes," Fang Yuan said as he opened his eyes a slit, then immediately closed them again.
He heard his aunt stomping her feet, followed by a series of footsteps that became softer and softer.
Not long after, his uncle, Guyue, Dong Tu, appeared in front of Fang Yuan. As for his aunt, she didn't come with him.
Fang Yuan looked at him.
His uncle had obviously aged a lot. His face, which had been well maintained before, was now showing signs of aging. His originally well-maintained face had also become thinner, with many white hairs on his temples.
These days, he was worried to death.
After losing this family property, he suddenly lost his source of income. Especially without the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass, he lost his external influence.
The so-called "Hidden Elder" title was no longer in name.
Although he had a large amount of savings. But without this layer of influence, these Yuan stone seemed to be a bit of a hot potato.
The family's policy was to encourage clansmen to compete with each other for resources. Especially the policy of Gu fighting, it seemed to be heartless and lacking in humanity. But this could prevent parasites and the appearance of hedonistic young masters, causing everyone in the family to maintain a sense of crisis. This allowed the family's battle strength to always be at a strong state.
In this world, only strong battle strength could ensure survival. Hurricanes, floods, ferocious beasts wouldn't reason with people.
Over these years, Guyue, Dong Tu's life was stable, his battle strength had already declined a lot. In order to reduce the cost of feeding some of the powerful Gu worms in the early years, he had already sold them.
If someone challenged him, he would definitely lose more than he won.
Facing his uncle, Fang Yuan directly stated the reason for his visit.
"Fang Yuan, then I'll be frank. There are some things I don't understand, why did you sell the wine tavern and the bamboo building? If you keep them, you will have an endless supply of Yuan stone in the future. "Uncle also didn't believe it, but his tone was more tactful than aunt's.
"Because I want to buy a red steel Relic Gu." Fang Yuan said honestly, there was no need to hide this matter.
"So it's like that." Uncle's gaze flashed, "Then, do you also want to sell the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass?"
"That's impossible." Fang Yuan shook his head without any hesitation, "I only want to sell the wine tavern, bamboo building, farmland, and the eight servants."
The Nine Leaf Vitality Grass was the most valuable item in the inheritance. Fang Yuan needed its healing properties, and at the same time, he could sell the vitality leaves to earn Yuan stone, which could support his cultivation and feed his other Gu worms.
Moreover, with the wolf tide next year, the price of vitality leaves would definitely soar. With this Nine Leaf Vitality Grass, Fang Yuan didn't have to worry about Rank two Yuan stone.
But if his uncle obtained the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass, then his influence as a "Hidden Elder" would recover. Fang Yuan didn't want to see this happen.
Seeing Fang Yuan's firm attitude, Guyue Dong Tu was very disappointed. At the same time, he was quite helpless.
Both sides talked for more than two hours before they signed a strict transfer contract.
Guyue Dong Tu got the wine tavern, bamboo building, servants, and farmland again, while Fang Yuan led three servants, each carrying a chest filled with Yuan stone, towards the treehouse.
Both sides took what they needed.
Aunt heard the news and rushed over. She looked at the stack of house and land deeds in Guyue Dong Tu's hands, and her eyes widened, revealing an ecstatic expression, "Master, that kid has become stupid from cultivating, he actually sold this money-making property! What an idiot, for eggs, he gave up the hen that laid the eggs. "
"Will you die if you don't speak? Shut up." Guyue Dong Tu, however, was somewhat irritated.
"Master …" Aunt mumbled, "I'm just happy."
"Don't get carried away! With this wine tavern and bamboo building, we need to be even more cautious and keep a low profile. A tall tree attracts the wind. Although Fangzheng is our adopted son. But we can't use this relationship arbitrarily. After all, Fangzheng hasn't grown up yet, who knows what will happen in the future. "Guyue Dong Tu let out a deep sigh.
"Yes, Master!" His aunt listened as she took the deed and looked at it. She was grinning from ear to ear.
Guyue Dong Tu's expression, however, was gloomy.
Although he would have an income if this deal was completed, it was not a big deal. The Yuan stone he spent could be replenished after two to three years of business. But he didn't feel any happiness in his heart.
His mind was filled with Fang Yuan's figure.
Fang Yuan sold his property without hesitation for a Relic Gu, this was equivalent to giving up on his comfortable life in the future.
Uncle Guyue Dong Tu put himself in his shoes, could he do this?
He couldn't.
Even if he didn't like Fang Yuan, and was filled with disgust and hatred, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Being able to give up, what great courage!"
