Five hundred taels of crimson gold!
When Chen Qi heard Liu Hong's bid, he couldn't help but look at the man in front of him in a new light.
Good heavens, not bad!
To be able to take out five hundred taels of pure gold, it seemed that this fellow had earned a lot from the Prime Minister's Estate!
Pure gold was also a currency of the Great Tang, one of the more high-end ones.
Not only could it be used as a currency to circulate between dignitaries, wealthy merchants, martial artists, and cultivators, but it was also a spiritual material that cultivators often used to forge magical artifacts.
Because it was extracted from gold, it was also known as pure gold.
One tael of pure gold was equivalent to one hundred taels of gold, which was six hundred strings of copper coins.
Five hundred taels of pure gold was fifty thousand taels of gold, three hundred thousand strings of strings.
A guard of the Prime Minister's Estate had spent 300,000 strings of money. Who would believe that this guy had earned it all by himself?
What was that?
You said that other than the Prime Minister's Residence's guards, Liu Hong was also a martial arts rank-four golden-body realm expert.
Alright, then there's no problem.
" A house in the inner city of Chang 'an is about 100,000 strings of strings. Renovating it and buying some daily necessities will cost about 200,000 strings of strings.”
"This way, I can still have 100,000 yuan left. If I have 100,000 yuan, how much paper can I buy?”
"A piece of Xuan paper costs twelve strings of coins, and a single blade is twelve hundred strings of coins. If you use a hundred thousand strings of coins, you can buy about a hundred blades, which is ten thousand pieces.”
"There's also a good wolf-hair brush that costs about a hundred strings. Not to mention the inkstone, it's even more expensive than rice paper.”
"Damn it, I still don't have enough money to spend!”
Chen Qi kept calculating his spending in his heart. He couldn't stop himself from spending these 500 taels of pure gold!
However, he also knew that selling a Great Scholar's Calligraphy for five hundred taels of red gold was already a high price.
After all, it was impossible for anyone to really buy the Great Scholar's Calligraphy according to the calculation of "one word is worth thousands of gold".
One should not think that Chen Qi had high requirements for brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, because ordinary paper, brush, and ink could not bear the awe-inspiring righteousness of a great scholar.
Otherwise, do you really think that Chen Qi would spend two taels of gold to buy a piece of sacrificial Xuan paper just to save face?
He had no choice!
" Forget it. It seems that we can't rely on Liu Hong to achieve wealth freedom. We have to rely on the old dragon outside Chang 'an City."”
Chen Qi sighed in his heart. Then, he looked at Liu Hong, who had an expectant look on his face, and said in a deep voice,"Alright, since Brother Liu and I hit it off at first sight, five hundred taels it is.”
"You go get the money, I'll go get the copybook. Two hours later, we'll come back here to trade. What do you think, Brother Liu?”
Since he had decided to trade, he couldn't delay. Anyway, he had just spent two taels of gold to buy a piece of rice paper, which could be used.
Hearing Chen Qi's suggestion, Liu Hong nodded and said,""Alright, we'll do as you say. Please don't go back on your word.”
"In addition, this Liu must say in advance that if your copybook does not satisfy this Liu, or if the poems in the copybook are not comparable to Xie Daoyun's 'Song of Mount Tai', this Liu will not buy it.”
Liu Hong said in a deep voice. He bought the copybook to give to the woman he loved deeply, not to cultivate or kill demons. Therefore, he naturally had requirements for the content of the poems and articles in the copybook.
You can't possibly buy a copy of Song of the Gale or The Art of War and give it to the goddess, right?
"Of course!" Chen Qi said confidently.
After the two of them agreed on the method and time of the transaction, they went their separate ways to prepare.
After watching Liu Hong leave, Chen Qi quickly returned to his residence. Then, he carefully opened the framed blank Xuan paper and picked up the brush. He pondered for a while and prepared it.
Then, he entered an ethereal state. He imagined the concept of " Immortal Magpie Bridge " in his mind. He calmed his mind and focused his mental energy to the extreme.
When Chen Qi finished conceiving the artistic conception of the entire " Immortal of Magpie Bridge," he instantly moved. The brush moved like a dragon and snake, and it was done in one go.
In a few breaths, a sentimental and exquisite poem," Immortal of Magpie Bridge ", appeared on the paper.
"The Immortal of Magpie Bridge is a play on the fine clouds, a flying star spreads hatred, and a silver river passes through the darkness. When the golden wind and jade dew met, they surpassed countless people in the world. Gentle as water, beautiful as a dream, bear to look at the magpie bridge return road. If the two feelings are long, how can they be in the morning and evening?”
That's right, what he wrote was the famous and well-known poem in history," The Immortal of Magpie Bridge ".
When the brush fell, it startled the wind and rain, and the poem made ghosts and gods cry!
When Chen Qi put down the wolf-hair brush in his hand, a lingering feeling filled with longing, sorrow, sorrow, and sorrow, but also an extremely beautiful aura of love, rose and spread from the paper.
At this moment, a breeze blew over, causing the books on the table to rustle.
On the contrary, the copybook that was laid flat on the ground did not move, as if it had not been blown by the breeze.
"Mm, not bad, not bad!"
"Three points into the wood, a thousand jin a word. I didn't expect this calligraphy to carry 70% of my Righteousness Qi. Five hundred taels of red gold is really a little too cheap for Liu Hong.”
Chen Qi shook his head and smiled. He felt that he had really lost out on this deal.
Previously, Chen Qi had also used Righteousness Qi to write poems. However, because of the paper quality, most of the copybooks could only contain about 20% of his Righteousness Qi.
Now that he had replaced it with high-quality Xuan paper and paired it with the ancient poem," Immortal Magpie Bridge," he did not expect it to carry 70% of his righteous spirit.
This meant that once the copybook in his hand was activated, it could unleash 70% of the power of a Third Stage Great Scholar, which could easily kill a Fourth Stage demon.
If such an ink treasure were to be sold, not to mention five hundred taels of pure gold, even if it was one thousand taels of gold, there would probably be people fighting to buy it.
That was why Chen Qi said that this deal was a bit of a loss. Liu Hong had really benefited.
However, since the price had already been negotiated, Chen Qi could not do anything to increase the price at the last minute.
Therefore, he didn't mind letting Liu Hong off so easily. He just smiled and didn't take it to heart.
However, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This tribute paper bought with two taels of gold was really worth this price.
As expected, there was a reason why it was expensive!
"I wonder if Liu Hong can understand the meaning of my 'Magpie Bridge Immortal.'”
Chen Qi put away the " Magpie Bridge Immortal " on the table and sighed faintly.
He didn't have much hope for this. After all, the karma on that guy was too great, and there was no way to resolve it.
At least for the current Chen Qi, it was definitely a dead end.
He didn't think that anyone in the human world could untie the knot on Liu Hong.
It wasn't that no one could solve it.
It was the people who didn't have the ability to undo it. Those who had the ability to solve it wouldn't be able to solve it at all!
Therefore, it became an unsolvable knot!
