Chapter 18 Popularity Eye
What is the Popularity Eye? It has different levels just like martial arts. Is it used specifically to measure popularity?
However, information about popular Tang Wen can only be seen occasionally.
For example, when I traveled back for the second time and encountered a sneak attack, I could see the momentum clearly in the middle of the night.
Also, when you complete the stage goal designated by the space, you can also see the popularity on the heads of the newly recruited servants rushing towards your body, but you cannot see the popularity on people's heads at other times.
If we have a popularity eye, then we can check the popularity of people at any time, which is much more convenient.
Of course, what’s the use of popularity? Tang Wen currently only knows that he can absorb popularity to improve his skills the first time, but not after that.
Also, sometimes at night, you can see the popularity above other people's heads to distinguish between friends and foes, like during the sneak attack.
This guy had no other choice but to be careful. After dinner, he gathered everyone to the playground.
Looking closely, however, one cannot see any popularity above their heads.
It is difficult to find someone who betrays you, and the betrayal is not written on their face, so you can only be on guard at all times.
So, he quietly called Zhang Kui and Li Quan over and told them to pay attention to everyone's behavior and report to him at any time if there was any situation. Secondly, he also asked them to protect his mother.
Zhang Kui used to live with his father, and his father was his savior.
Li Quan fell ill and was about to die on the street, and I spent a lot of money to save him.
Later, Li Quan took the initiative to sell himself to the Tang family and served Tang Wen exclusively.
Therefore, these two people are both elders of the Tang family, and Tang Wen can only trust them at present.
People like Zhan Dongwen and others, although they are fellow villagers, people’s hearts are different, and Tang Wen doesn’t dare to trust them completely.
As for the people from the Gu family, Tang Wen didn't even dare to believe them.
After all, Gu Hanyan was not very friendly to him.
She has a stern face all day long. Although she will do the work that is her duty as a servant, I have never seen her smile at me.
Of course, Tang Wen also knew that there was no eternal trust in this world, but there were eternal interests.
As long as you can bring them benefits, it will be difficult for them to betray you .
Therefore, it is very important to make more money and improve your martial arts skills.
So, in the afternoon, Tang Wen did not go to the scene to direct the work, but swallowed the Peiyuan Pill and concentrated on practicing.
At this stage, Tang Wen abandoned his previous "Six Mysterious Return to the Truth Art" and turned to practicing the town hall technique that Li Quan bought from the Zhao's Martial Arts School in Yanling County - Cai Yuan Gui Zhen Art.
This set of skills is the best one that can be bought in Yanling County, and its grade has reached the lower earth level.
Gongfa is also divided into human level, earth level and heaven level. Each level is divided into three levels: low level, middle level and high level.
The better the technique, the faster the practice will be.
This 'Cai Yuan Gui Zhen Jue' cost Tang Wenda several hundred taels of silver.
This technique can actually absorb a little bit of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through the pores, while techniques like the Six Profound Return to Truth Technique cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth outside the body.
Although the amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth that can be absorbed by the Cai Yuan Gui Zhen Jue is pitifully small, but even a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat, and it is better than nothing.
Another advantage of this technique is that it absorbs medicinal power three times faster than the Six Profound Return to Truth Technique.
Tang Wen had no shortage of money to buy elixirs, so eating elixirs was as easy as eating candy beans, and his cultivation speed was also faster.
Otherwise, it is hard to say whether you can break through the realm every time you complete your goal and absorb popularity. This requires you to lay a solid foundation first.
Thanks to the large amount of pills given by Tang Wen, Li Quan and Zhang Kui made rapid progress in just two months.
Li Quan also entered the early stage of the ninth rank, and Zhang Kui entered the middle stage of the ninth rank.
Of course, other servants were not as lucky as them. The security team, for example, received much less pills.
After all, the elixir is too expensive. A low-grade marrow cleansing pill costs thirty taels of silver, and a Yuan-nourishing pill costs ten taels of silver.
The middle-quality ones are more expensive, and Tang Wen cannot afford to supply so many people who eat them.
Most of the warriors in the Chu State eat inferior elixirs, which are the waste elixirs that were ruined by alchemists. These people are considered lucky, because at least they have elixirs to eat.
Half of the people can't even afford the elixir, so they can only buy some herbs to make soup, but the effect is naturally greatly reduced.
Currently, Qiao Xiao is the strongest member of the Tang family team. It is estimated that he has a strength of about rank six, and his attack power reaches over a thousand pounds.
For the time being, Tang Wen doesn't dare to sell good elixirs to train him vigorously.
After all, this person is not as trustworthy as Li Quan.
The reason why we can’t make good pills in modern society is not because modern alchemists are not good enough, but because there are no good medicinal materials.
Miraculous medicines must also grow in an environment with spiritual energy. For example, there is spiritual energy in the air of the Chu State, and the spiritual energy in the fairy mountains and treasure lands is even better.
The reason why the skills of the detectives of the Six Gates improved so quickly is that they have the strong financial support of the Great Chu court and they can get a lot of elixirs every year.
In the evening, Li Quan rushed in and said as soon as he entered the door, "Master, we have someone."
"Where did he come from?" Tang Wen was surprised and asked.
"They are the victims brought in by Bufeng and his men. Bufeng said there are more than 180 of them," said Li Quan.
"Let's go and take a look." Tang Wen also felt happy.
I put on my Sir Alex hat before walking out of the tent, and found that Bu Feng had already lined up all the victims in the playground.
"This is our Lord Tang!" Bu Feng pointed at Tang Wen.
"Greetings, Lord Baron!" All the victims knelt down. It seemed that the hat was quite powerful.
"You should have walked here. You must be tired and hungry," Tang Wen asked.
"Master, please give us something to eat. We are starving to death." Someone suddenly shouted.
"Junru, make arrangements immediately. Ask someone to cook more rice and stir-fry some meat so that everyone can have something to eat." Tang Wen turned around and said to Zhan Junru.
"Okay, I'll ask someone to light a fire and cook right away." Zhan Junru nodded.
Li Lanyue and a group of women sprang into action immediately. Soon, a fragrant aroma wafted out of the kitchen, making the disaster victims stare at the kitchen with their eyes wide open and drooling.
"Everyone is tired, let's sit down and take a rest. We can talk about our things after we have eaten." Tang Wen said.
We must let them eat their fill first and let them feel the benefits that the Tang family can bring to them.
By then, it will be much easier to talk about selling myself.
An hour later, dinner was served and Tang Wen took them to the cafeteria.
Looking at the neatly arranged rows of tables, with pots of food and even meat on them, all the guys were stunned.
"Ten people at each table, please sit down first." Tang Wen said, so Bu Feng made arrangements and soon everyone was seated.
However, since Tang Wen didn't say anything, no one dared to pick up their chopsticks and they could only drool.
"Eat slowly and don't choke. Add more rice when you're done." Tang Wen said, and immediately, there was a chaotic gurgling sound in the cafeteria.
After eating, they gathered on the playground again, and Zhan Dongwen said, "Everyone, Master Tang has rules for buying people.
Those with greater strength will get more silver, and those with better martial arts skills will get even more silver.
There is a row of iron locks over there. You can go over and move them. There are people here who are responsible for recording them.
At that time, the price will depend on the effort.”
“Master Tang, my name is ‘Zhan Zhao’, and my martial arts are half a step to the eighth level. It’s a pity that I don’t have enough food to eat, enough clothes to wear, and no elixir. Otherwise, I would have entered the eighth level long ago.” At this time, a middle-aged man with dark skin stood up and said.
"Well, you go and hold the iron lock first." Tang Wen nodded. Zhan Zhao clasped his fists, walked to the iron lock marked with 600 pounds, and picked it up with a roar.
However, I was only able to hold him for a bit and wasn't able to lift him up completely.
Zhan Zhao blushed and said, "I've been too weak lately."
"It's okay. Try to lift 500 kilograms?" Tang Wen said. Zhan Zhao turned to another iron chain and yelled, "Get up!"
Tiesuo was carried by him slowly off the ground.
“Okay, even if you are half a step into the eighth level.
Selling my body for thirty taels of silver, and two taels of silver per month as a stipend.
Two low-grade Peiyuan pills were given and he was added to the security team.
Zhan Zhao, do you agree?" Tang Wen said.
"Master Tang, I have a cousin named Luo Yue.
I am fifteen years old and have been ill recently. I heard that Mr. Tang can also treat illnesses.
If you can cure her disease, she can also sell herself to the Tang family, and we don't want the money.
Besides, my cousin can recognize some words and play the piano," said Zhan Zhao.
"I can't guarantee that I can cure her, but I will try my best," said Tang Wen.
"Thank you, Master Tang!" Zhan Zhao half-knelt down and said.
"Zhao Yuan, 500 kilograms of strength, I will sell my body for 20 taels of silver..."
"Luo Hongyu, she has a strength of 200 kilograms, can do needlework, and can raise horses..."
…
When the deed of sale was signed, the voice in the space sounded again, "Ding Dong, you have accumulated 200 points of popularity, the Landlord System is activated, and you can perform the sixth time travel at any time."
Suddenly, more than 200 auras rushed towards Tang Wen. He quickly activated the "Collecting Yuan Guizhen Jue" to absorb... refine...
After ten minutes or so, the pain disappeared, my whole body felt relaxed, and I felt that several acupoints had been opened.
I looked at the big screen in the space. Great! The data has been updated again:
Popularity Index: 608
Land area: 2338 hectares and 50 acres.
Wealth index: 25,000 taels of gold.
Martial arts level: early eighth level.
Ceremonial load: 600 tons.
Travel time: thirty days.
It’s over 600... Where’s the popularity?
Just as I was thinking about it, the voice in the space sounded again, "Ding Dong! The free condensation of the tenth-level popularity eye was successful."
