Chapter 142 Chen Yu
"Sir, your buns are ready!"
The bun shop owner said to the old man, "You'd better ask someone to come get them. There are too many buns and I'm afraid you can't carry them all!"
Then the old man waved and called three or four people over, and each of them left with a few baskets of buns.
Back in the car, Chen Yu grabbed the buns and stuffed them into his mouth, not caring whether they were hot or not. He ate one palm-sized bun at a time and finished the whole basket in no time.
"Who was that guy just now? Is he talented?"
As soon as Chen Yu saw the old man's expression, he knew that he had taken a liking to the boy.
So he said while eating buns.
The amazing thing is that even with his mouth full of buns, he could still speak clearly without any delay.
The old man nodded and said, “I see that the man’s physical strength is quite strong. If he is trained a little, he will surely become a strong man who is no less than a Qigong practitioner. If he works hard enough, he might even be able to try to impact the foundation of his physical body!”
"That's great! Why don't you go find him?"
The old man shook his head, "He refused to come."
Chen Yu stuffed the last bun in his hand into his mouth and wiped the oil off his hands. "Have you discussed the salary with him?"
The old man shook his head, "Of course not, there is nothing to discuss. Giving him a chance to practice is enough."
"Oh, uncle, you're not right," Chen Yu said earnestly, "How can you ask someone to work for you without discussing the treatment? You're just making empty promises!"
"Young master is right!" The old man nodded in agreement, but in his heart he felt that Chen Yu's idea was really weird. Isn't it a great favor to provide these low-level peasants with an opportunity to practice? Why should he give them other things?
"Okay, since you said this person is so talented, let's invite him over first!"
Chen Yu said as he straightened his clothes and said, "How about me in this way? Is it rude?"
Seeing the old man shaking his head, Chen Yu got off the sedan chair and came to Zhang Tie. With a smile on his face, he bowed to Zhang Tie and said, "My name is Chen Yu, from the Chen family in North City. May I get to know you?"
Zhang Tie looked at the polite and handsome man in front of him, feeling quite refreshed. He also raised his hand and clenched his fist, returning the greeting, "Zhang Tie greets Master Chen."
"Haha, what a great name, brother! It's as strong as your body!" Chen Yu said, and pulled Zhang Tie to the bun shop.
"Boss, bring up all the good wine and food you have here. I want to have a couple of drinks with this brother!"
"Well," the owner of the steamed bun shop hesitated, "this is a steamed bun shop, and we only have steamed buns. If you want to eat some good wine and food, why don't you go to Zui Xiang Lou next door?"
Chen Yu slapped his head and said, "Look how confused I am. Let's eat the buns!"
"Brother Zhang, the buns here are delicious. Each one has a thin skin and a large filling. I don't know what condiments are put in it. After eating one, I want to eat a second one. It's really delicious!"
Zhang Tie was inspired by Chen Yu's carefree attitude and started joking, "Then I'll have to try it carefully. If it tastes good, I might buy it all for the boss. Don't be too stingy when the time comes!"
"No way. Although my cultivation skills are mediocre, I am an expert at making money. Throughout this mundane place of North City, there are shops of mine, so you don't have to worry about money! Even if you eat all the food outside the entire North City, I will provide you with enough!"
Chen Yu patted Zhang Tie on the shoulder, his eyes gleaming, "Do you want to follow me?"
Zhang Tie had a lot of things to do, so he naturally couldn't agree.
Seeing Zhang Tie's strange expression, Chen Yu immediately realized that Zhang Tie was going to refuse, and immediately said, "I can take you to practice!" Zhang Tie shook his head, "Thank you, Master Chen, but..."
"One hundred taels of gold every month!"
"What!" The owner of the bun shop next door was so shocked that he threw away the buns in his hand. My goodness, a hundred taels of gold, he couldn't even earn a hundred taels of gold by selling buns in his entire life, and this is only one month!
Zhang Tie continued to shake his head.
"The house is in the inner city of North City, next to Xuanwu Courtyard!"
Zhang Tie hesitated when he heard this. Although he needed a house, if he really agreed, he might not have time to practice in Xuanwu Academy.
So I still shook my head.
"Body training technique, Cangyuan Body Training Technique!"
"Young Master, no!" The old man next to him shuddered when he heard this. He thought to himself that this mundane item was fine, but the Cangyuan Body Refining Technique was the Chen family's top body refining technique. How could he give it away so easily!
"Uncle Wang, don't stop me. Although this Cangyuan Body Refining Technique is precious, have you ever seen anyone in the Chen family learn it? If no one can learn it, it will be rubbish if it is left there. It is better to give it away!"
Then Chen Yu turned around and said sincerely, "If you are willing to join, these things are all yours, and I don't need you to do anything, just be my sparring partner when I go to Xuanwu Outer Court to practice!"
"Outer courtyard of Xuanwu Academy!"
Zhang Tie's eyes lit up. If that was the case, then there would be no problem.
Now that he has offended the great elder of the Li family, he might be plotted against when he is outside. If he can have Chen Yu to cover for him, it will be much easier for him!
When Chen Yu saw the change in Zhang Tie's eyes, he felt that his invitation was already secured.
"Haha, it seems Brother Zhang agreed!" After Chen Yu said that, he continued to eat buns with Zhang Tie.
"Brother Zhang, here is one hundred taels of gold. I'm giving it to you in advance. As for the body-refining technique, it's still at home, so I can't give it to you right now." After Chen Yu paid for the buns, he handed the one hundred taels of gold to Zhang Tie under the envious gaze of the bun shop owner.
Zhang Tie was holding the package and said with a smile, "I happen to have something to do tomorrow. I'll come here and wait for you after I'm done!"
Chen Yu naturally agreed, and then left with the convoy.
"If you just give him the money like this, aren't you afraid that he will run away?" the old man reminded Chen Yu.
Chen Yu shook his head. "This can be considered a test. If he really only has this little knowledge, even if he has a talent for body refining, it will be of little use."
"Let's go!"
At Chen Yu's command, the entire convoy headed towards the inner city of the north city.
Zhang Tie went straight back to Xuanwu Courtyard and settled down in his original courtyard.
The courtyard where Zhang Tie was was still as quiet as before. Returning to the room, lighting a candle, Zhang Tie began to sort out his current gains.
"The black tortoise and blue dragon phantoms in my mind cannot be used this time, so Zhang Tie's strength has been discounted."
"Now I still have to ask myself what the situation is with the black tortoise and the blue dragon. These days, it seems that my phantom is a level higher than those ordinary visualizations."
