Chapter 140 What were you thinking?
Hearing that Ding Xian spoke fluently and clearly, Wang Yan casually rewarded him with a low-grade Xuan Crystal, then asked, "Can you brew Spiritual Tea?"
"Yes, Master! If you wish to drink it, I will arrange for the best spring water right away!" Ding Xian happily accepted the gift and asked even more enthusiastically.
"Go!" Wang Yan nodded in satisfaction and returned to the main house in the east courtyard.
He had just found the paper and fine charcoal pencil provided here and spread them out under the bright light when Ding Xian came in carrying a bucket of water: "Master, this is spring water from the first-level spiritual spring in the backyard. It's very sweet when used to brew spiritual tea."
"Go to the bar!" Wang Yan nodded without surprise, then picked up a pen and paper and began to write ordinary words on the very smooth desk.
After a cup of tea, he heard the gurgling sound of boiling water. Looking up, he saw that Ding Xian had already picked up the boiling stainless steel kettle and was pouring water into the prepared teapot.
Before long, inhaling the invigorating aroma of tea, in this tranquil night, Wang Yan felt a surge of inspiration, and his writing flowed effortlessly.
Anyway, he's just writing ordinary text, so there's no need to worry about whether he's ever written any of those divine characters.
He simply wanted to make the text appear less modern.
He kept revising and writing, and seeing that Ding Xian was getting sleepy from serving him, he gave him a cup of tea.
"Thank you for your grace, Master!" Ding Xian said somewhat awkwardly, as if he wanted to accept the gift but dared not.
"Just drink it!" Wang Yan waved his hand. "You can rest after you finish this page!"
"Yes!" Ding Xian hurriedly showed a happy expression, carefully took the teacup, and took a few sips with great care, praising how delicious it was.
Not only does it taste good, it's also very refreshing.
Wang Yan continued writing, managing to finish before the end of Hai hour (9-11 PM).
After carefully checking it again to make sure it conveyed what he wanted to hear, Wang Yan put down his pen with satisfaction: "The tea is well-brewed. While I'm here, please brew tea for me!"
"Yes!" Ding Xian replied happily.
"Are you a handyman here? Retired from the Level Two Spirit Sprout Hall?" Wang Yan completely forgot that he was only a teenager and started chatting with Ding Xian, adopting his habit from his previous life of chatting about everyday things and teaching students.
Ding Xian replied cautiously: "I am of dull talent, only at the village level of the Sea of Knowledge. I am the grand-nephew of Inspector Huang, who is under Inspector Qiu. I barely managed to reach the second level of the Spirit Sprout in the sect. I cannot write enough divine characters within three years, so I had no choice but to shamelessly ask Uncle Huang for face to come and work here."
Wang Yan understood that those with connections and powerful backers were assigned to menial tasks at the garrison. Those without connections or powerful backers, who were only at the second level of Spirit Sprout level and couldn't advance to the third level, could only join the menial tasks camp and serve as the vanguard when killing Xuan Beasts.
"Who else is in the family?"
"I have elderly parents above me, and a son and a daughter below me, neither of whom have yet developed their consciousness."
Are you planning to have another child?
"My wife is already pregnant."
"Alright, do your job well. I think Inspector Qiu is quite kind, isn't he?"
"Indeed, Lord Qiu is very responsible and takes good care of the younger ones."
"That's good. I don't need you to serve me here anymore, you can go back now!"
"yes!"
After Ding Xian left, Wang Yan also closed the door, activated the isolation array, and went to bed to cultivate.
"The concentration of profound energy here is twice as high as that of the Xi Shen Temple, so there must be a special profound energy gathering array here."
Therefore, practicing it is truly enjoyable.
Inside the main room, Dulong's divine sense observed this place, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.
"Could it be that I was right after all? This kid has awakened his innate wisdom; was he a wealthy young master in his past life?"
Otherwise, where would he get the manners of a young master from a wealthy family?
……
In a daze, after two hours of work, Wang Yan took out the Hundred-Refined Traceless Sword, went outside to the courtyard, and began practicing Tai Chi sword techniques.
When he started to sweat slightly, he saw Du Long also coming out for his morning exercise, and quickly went up to greet him: "Good morning, Uncle-Master!"
"Start training!" Dulong nodded.
As the sun rose, the two practiced breathing exercises to refresh themselves and then finished their practice. Wang Yan then presented his findings from the previous night: "Regarding the stampede in the city center, I've come up with a long-term solution, but it might require the cooperation of Inspector Qiu."
A gentle breeze blew by, and Dulong looked at him with utter surprise: "You figured it out in just one night?"
Still three thick sheets of paper?
Wang Yan had anticipated his surprise and calmly smiled slightly: "I've always been a quick thinker. What do you think?"
"Okay, I'll take a look for you!" Dulong chuckled as he took it.
When Dulong's gaze fell on the paper, he couldn't help but praise, "Your handwriting is quite good!"
After looking at them one by one, Dulong's indifference gradually turned into curiosity, surprise, and admiration.
Wang Yan watched his changing expressions and felt quite pleased with himself.
"Hey, you guys think I'm some poor country bumpkin who can't think of any solutions?"
"But what you don't know is that what's in my mind is a business strategy that has been effective for decades in modern society of the last century!"
All he had to do was write it out logically and systematically.
After Dulong finished reading, he looked at Wang Yan strangely, a hint of horror in his eyes: "How did you get your head?"
Dulong believed he had lived for hundreds of years, traveled to hundreds of towns and cities, and seen countless outstanding young people.
However, among the poor teenagers in the town-level sea of consciousness, not one could reach Wang Yan's current level.
"Could it be that what I was thinking last night was true? Did he accidentally eat the mutated Mad Hemp Grass that night and awaken his innate wisdom? Was he a core scholar of some major sect in his past life?"
Seeing Du Long's dumbfounded, astonished, envious, and admiring demeanor, yet also trying to maintain his senior uncle's composure, Wang Yan felt extremely smug.
Surprised?
Enjoy!
That's right, it means you are indeed the most skilled at mundane affairs in Shenwen Peak.
However, on the surface, Wang Yan still pretended to be humble and asked, "Uncle-Master, do you think it's feasible?"
Seeing Wang Yan's arrogant and confident demeanor, Du Long suddenly understood how his own peak master felt when facing Wang Yan.
This kid actually likes to show off. He has a lot of arrogance in his bones and completely ignores the difference in cultivation level between him and others. He's so cocky he's practically wagging his tail!
I wanted to beat him up, but I felt I was in the wrong.
Composing himself, Du Long stroked his beardless chin and praised again, "Not bad, it's clear you've thought it through carefully. However, some parts require technical support from Fire Refining Peak, and we also need to adjust the recruitment standards of our Cloud Cauldron Sect. Therefore, I, your uncle, cannot make decisions on my own; I must consult with Grandmaster first."
Actually, Uncle Du is a really good person!
Wang Yan immediately bowed to him sincerely: "Uncle-Master, you said yesterday that we have lost half of our Profound Breaking Realm disciples, and we are in dire need of backup. Why don't we take this opportunity to recruit village-level disciples with Sea of Consciousness from the major households under our jurisdiction and include them in the outer sect's management?"
"Among them, there should be some who can refine weapons and pills. We only need them to do the basic weapon refining and pill refining tasks, so that the senior and junior disciples in the inner sect can free up their hands to either speed up their cultivation or improve their professional skills."
"As for the limitations of the sea of consciousness... Uncle-Master, you should first report to Grandmaster and see what his opinion is! As for the specific reward plan, if all three parties feel it is feasible, the reward will be determined later."
The warm morning sun shone on his youthful face, making him appear exceptionally confident and energetic.
