Fang Yun casually tossed three sealed wooden boxes in front of the three.
The three hurriedly caught them and thanked Fang Yun.
Xu Chang Geng suddenly exclaimed, while Dong Yueqian and Li Zhixiao looked at him in surprise.
Xu Chang Geng's hands trembled as he asked in surprise and joy, "Minister, are these wooden boxes made from thousand year old demon wood?"
Fang Yun smiled, "You know what's good for you."
Dong Yueqian and Li Zhixiao both realized that these items were extraordinary, but they didn't know what thousand year old demon wood was.
Xu Chang Geng continued, "Last year, this official was fortunate enough to attend the full moon celebration of Chen Sheng Clan's son and saw a great scholar present a box of Enlightening Spirit Incense. An aristocratic family's disciple explained that the box containing the Enlightening Spirit Incense was made from hundred year old demon wood. That person also said that if it was thousand year old demon wood, the texture of the wooden box would be dark red, and the item inside would be even more extraordinary. "
Dong Yueqian and Li Zhixiao may not know what's good for them, but they have heard of the Enlightening Spirit Incense. It was a divine item that only the Holy Clans could afford. If a child under the age of eighteen could obtain the Enlightening Spirit Incense, their future would be extraordinary. This was also one of the reasons why the Holy Clans' disciples had a higher average position than ordinary families.
The three looked at each other, their faces revealing ecstasy.
Xu Chang Geng blushed and asked in a low voice, "Minister, can this official open it now?"
The three immediately stared at Fang Yun like curious little beasts, their eyes full of expectation.
Fang Yun nodded with a smile.
The three of them immediately opened the box, and a burst of delicate fragrance assailed their nostrils. Inside the box was a light yellow incense that was as thick as a chopstick. It was about a foot long. Apart from the peculiar smell that made one feel relaxed and happy, there was nothing special about it.
The three's knowledge was not as good as Fang Yun's, but they weren't stupid. If the hundred year old demon wood contained the Enlightening Spirit Incense, then the thousand year old demon wood's contents were almost obvious.
Enlightening Spirit Incense.
Every kind of divine object had different levels in the minds of scholars. The Spiritual Incense of Wisdom might be better than the Life-Prolonging Fruit in the eyes of many scholars, but it was not as good as the Life-Prolonging Fruit. After all, it was important to live a few more years. The flaw of the Wisdom Spiritual Incense was that it could only be used before the age of eighteen.
However, the Sage Incense of Wisdom was different. Regardless of age, even an old man like Tian Songshi who was over a hundred years old could still use the Sage Incense of Wisdom to enhance his wisdom.
It could be said that the Sage Incense of Enlightenment was a top-notch divine item in the minds of scholars. Many people would rather exchange ten or even twenty years of their lives for the Sage Incense of Enlightenment to raise their literary status. It was far more valuable than living a lowly life for many years.
"This … isn't this too expensive …" Dong Yueqian looked at Fang Yun with a conflicted heart. If it had been an ordinary item, he would have accepted it. However, such a valuable item was something that even the great scholars of aristocratic families might not be able to obtain in their entire lives. Thus, he did not dare to accept it.
Li Zhixiao revealed a helpless expression, while Xu Changgeng turned his head and looked at Dong Yueqian with an extremely stern gaze.
This was a divine item that could truly allow him to make a comeback. Xu Changgeng would never allow Dong Yueqian to ruin his future.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "This item is indeed precious, but I obtained a lot from the Holy Burial Valley. For me, it's nothing more than a processing fee for the Notre-Dame. "
The main ingredient of the Sage Incense of Wisdom was the Holy Ambergris of the Whale Sage. It was rare for the human race to obtain a piece in a hundred years. Fang Yun had obtained a lot of it in the Dragon City Ruins, but the total amount was still limited.
However, there was the Sky River in the Holy Burial Valley.
Fang Yun had helped the Double-Headed Dragon Sage greatly. The Double-Headed Dragon Sage had personally promised that as long as it did not need it, Fang Yun could take as much as he wanted.
Fang Yun did not hold back. As long as it was something that he and the human race needed, he would take as much as he could.
Among them, there was a large amount of Ambergris and Holy Ambergris.
The Whale Demon Ambergris was just an ordinary spice for the ancient Dragons. At that time, the Whale Clan was huge in number. Just the planets that they occupied alone numbered over a hundred. Thus, the production of Ambergris was extremely high.
The Dragon Palace of the Double-Headed Dragon Sage was part of the ancient Southern Sea Dragon Palace, including the most important warehouse.
The Double-Headed Dragon Sage did not care about the Ambergris at all, so Fang Yun took all of it.
In addition to the ordinary Ambergris in the Sky River Dragon Palace, there was also a large amount of Holy Ambergris. This kind of divine item that could enlighten and increase the wisdom of all races was actually treated as an ordinary spice by the Double-Headed Dragon Sage.
At that time, Fang Yun had criticized the Double-Headed Dragon Sage's extravagance and extravagance with a heavy heart. Then, he said all the good things and asked for all the Holy Ambergris. However, this kind of thing was, after all, much more important than ordinary divine medicine. Fang Yun also let the Double-Headed Dragon Sage take three kinds of wine from the Brew Light Bottle. Both of them were happy.
The Ambergris was different from ordinary divine medicine. It was more valuable than the Seaweed Fish. Fang Yun did not contribute a large amount of this kind of special divine item to the Notre-Dame. He only contributed one-tenth. So much so that Fang Yun even made a forbidden list, forbidding some people or families from exchanging the items that he contributed to the Notre-Dame.
After all, the Ambergris and Seaweed Fish could make generation after generation stronger. If they were given to the enemy, it would be tantamount to digging one's own grave.
Xu Changgeng held the Thousand Year Demon Wood Box and said, "This student thanks Lord Left Minister!"
Li Zhixiao's gaze slightly changed, but Dong Yueqian did not change at all.
Xu Changgeng changed his tone and called himself a "student", which meant that he wanted to enter Fang Yun's tutelage.
Fang Yun looked at the three and said, "I heard that when Mount Liu was the Minister and Left Minister, he was very strict in the selection of his subordinates. He never showed favoritism and only selected people based on their ability. Some of his relatives and disciples could not work under him. Is there such a thing? "
The three of them broke out in cold sweat.
Xu Changgeng and Dong Yueqian did not dare to speak.
Li Zhixiao said helplessly, "Reporting to Lord Left Minister, there is such a thing. Every year after the Imperial Examinations selected the Grand Scholars, Scholar Liu would immediately get the name list. Then, he would go through all the Grand Scholars' biographies from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Civil Affairs and pick some people to be his subordinates. Basically, the Left Minister's Pavilion would add two to three new Grand Scholars each year to serve as advisors and give them an eighth-rank body. At the same time, Scholar Liu would also transfer some of the less capable advisors away each year. Once they have served in the Pavilion of the Left Minister for more than three years, it is equivalent to gaining Scholar Liu's favor. They could either be sent out to be a chief official, or be given an important position in the capital. "
Xu Changgeng added, "Before Scholar Liu left his position as Left Minister, I served as an advisor for one and a half years. Li Zhixiao and Dong Yueqian both served for more than two years, not even three years."
Fang Yun nodded and said, "I also heard that Mount Liu likes to give comments to his outstanding subordinates. If they are incompetent, Mount Liu would not even give a word of comment. The three of you, what kind of comments did Mount Liu give you? "
The three of them looked even worse.
Li Zhixiao braced himself and said, "Scholar Liu's comments to me were: virtuous, righteous, and capable."
Fang Yun looked at Xu Changgeng.
Xu Changgeng said helplessly, "Good thinking, adaptable."
Dong Yueqian also replied, "Diligent, honest."
Fang Yun suddenly smiled happily and said, "My luck today is not bad. Before the Hungry Ghost Festival this year, the three of you remember to send a letter to Mount Liu, saying thank you for his kindness in nurturing you all these years. "
The three of them did not know the reason and only nodded.
