Chapter 1094: Laying Cards On the Table, I’m A Multi-Millionaire!

Chapter 1094: Laying Cards On the Table, I’m A Multi-Millionaire!

Translator: Lordbluefire

After returning to Jinling, Sun Mo didn’t give lectures but went on leave instead.

With money, spare time, and a good reputation, this was the most relaxing time for him since he came to the Nine Provinces. Therefore, he decided to relax.

“How much money do I have now?”

After having breakfast, Sun Mo looked at the money pouch the maid Dong He had brought over and couldn’t help but ask.

Going to Qinhuai to lead a leisurely life while listening to famous prostitutes’ songs would definitely be expensive. This bit of money was probably not enough.

“Young Master, the accounts are managed by the princess.”

Dong He reported in a soft voice.

As Sun Mo’s personal disciple, it was Li Ziqi’s duty not only to make his bed but also to take care of him when he got old and eventually mourn for his death.

Therefore, Dong He felt that there wasn’t any problem at all for the little sunny egg to take care of Sun Mo’s money.

“Oh!”

Sun Mo turned and went upstairs. He planned on heading to the Wind King Hall and asked the little sunny egg about his current savings.

There should be quite a lot, right?

Sun Mo had opened the six treasure chests he had obtained a few days ago. The lucky mascot’s great luck was still around, so his rewards were quite good.

The first reward was one Dry Origin Pill, peerless grade!

After taking this alchemical pill, a Longevity Realm cultivator could immediately level up once.

Right now, Sun Mo was at the peak of the second level of the Longevity Realm. He planned on advancing by one level first before taking the alchemical pill. Otherwise, it’d be a waste.

The second reward was one [Godly Myriad Corpse Poison Manual].

It listed the recipes of rare and top-notch poisons that weren’t easy to refine. They would be able to kill without leaving any traces.

After learning it, Sun Mo then used Soul Imprint to hit this knowledge into Li Ziqi and Tantai Yutang’s minds. He then let them be.

Anyway, Sun Mo wouldn’t study poison.

The reason he didn’t teach the others was because he didn’t wish to distract them from their studies. After all, other than Li Ziqi, none of them would be able to master it immediately.

Moreover, they didn’t like the study of poison either.

The third reward was an ancient spiritual control incantation.

According to the system’s introduction, this incantation came from a mysterious ancient tribe. After chanting it, one would be able to summon a tribe guardian beast.

However, Sun Mo didn’t try it.

Right now, he held an extremely high level of distrust toward the system. In addition to him having summoned that drunken crane the other time, making it unpleasant for both sides, Sun Mo would choose not to use spiritual control techniques whenever possible.

The fourth reward was a [Basic Archaeology Encyclopedia].

The contents on it included fundamental archeology operations, some means of excavating relics and tombs, as well as the outlines of some secret ruins.

Sun Mo read it as if it was a tomb-raiding novel. After all, he’d probably not have any chance in this lifetime to perform archeology or to excavate tombs.

The fifth reward was a skill book titled [Weapon Identification Manual].

Upon learning it, one could discern weapons, having a similar effect as being able to understand music after having performed over 1,000 pieces of music, and being able to discern swords after having observed over 1,000 treasured swords.

At the very least, after Sun Mo was done reading it, he could explain a lot about a particular blade or sword.

Of course, with this, Sun Mo was equipped with the ability to pick up loots.

Take for example some famous swords and blades from ancient times. Although they were already rusty and battered, no longer having any more practical value, it was still good to keep them as collections.

The sixth reward was a [A First Look at Music Theory], elementary level.

After Sun Mo learned it, he smashed three ten-year time emblems and raised the proficiency index to the grandmaster level. Right now, Sun Mo could use a guzheng or pipa to perform some simple pieces.

To speak the truth, after coming to the Nine Provinces, one thing Sun Mo was very upset about was the lack of modern music to listen to.

There was no electronic music or classical music.

But now, Sun Mo could use the pipa and perform all sorts of rhythmic music pieces. It was just that the feeling was a little different.

“Should I use a voice-retention stone to record a killing piece? When I fight in the future, I can arrange for my disciples to play it by the side. I’d be able to remain undefeated then.”

Sun Mo thought about this and planned on enjoying a ‘no one can defeat me in my BGM’ sure-win melody

“Teacher, what are you smiling about? It feels a little disgusting!”

Tantai Yutang teased.

“Scram!”

Sun Mo scolded while laughing.

Amongst his disciples, the only ones who would dare joke with Sun Mo were only the sickly guy and Qin Yaoguang. The others were all good kids.

The kind who’d be able to win a lot of awards for being good students.

“How’s your condition recently?”

Sun Mo reached out his hand and checked the sickly guy’s body.

“Thanks to Teacher, I’m already a lot better.”

After saying that, Tantai Yutang knelt on the floor and kowtowed to Sun Mo.

It was Sun Mo who had given him the chance to continue smiling under the sun.

Tantai Yutang wasn’t sure if he’d be able to live a few decades, but his lifespan had been extended by at least ten years.

“Then enjoy your life!”

Sun Mo encouraged him.

After Sun Mo had engulfed that god skeleton, his blood had a miraculous effect. After saving Bai Wenzhang, he tried giving Tantai Yutang a blood transfusion and didn’t expect the results to be quite good.

His disciples were all working hard, not daring to slack off.

In the past, even though they admired Li Ziqi’s intelligence, she wasn’t good at fighting and thus they did underestimate her a little. This was especially so for Xuanyuan Po. He rarely called her eldest martial sister.

But after Li Ziqi summoned the Wind King, everyone was stunned.

This was the power of extreme wisdom!

Everyone didn’t wish to be lagging behind Li Ziqi and thus put in even more effort.

“Teacher, you’re here!”

When Li Ziqi saw Sun Mo, she immediately got up and welcomed him.

“Why don’t I see Qi Shengjia?”

Sun Mo had looked at all the halls but hadn’t seen the honest guy.

“Student Qi seems to be in a love relationship!”

Li Ziqi paid a lot of attention to this honest guy who wasn’t Sun Mo’s disciple, yet had the chance to cultivate in the Wind King Hall, enjoying the nourishment from multiple folds of spirit qi.

“What?”

Sun Mo was stunned.

It wasn’t that he looked down on Qi Shengjia, but this guy’s looks were really bad!

To think that he had gotten into a relationship?

(Damn it! I hadn’t even been in a relationship when I was in university!)

“A junior confessed to Student Qi!”

Li Ziqi continued to expose him, almost driving Sun Mo to his death.

“It was the girl who wooed him?”

Sun Mo frowned.

He had decided. He was going to “add side dishes” for the honest guy, getting him to train for three more hours every day.

Li Ziqi noticed Sun Mo’s expression and felt a little stunned.

(You’re feeling jealous? But why? You’re the dream lover of all the girls in the school. If it isn’t because a teacher-student love relationship is a great taboo, I’m very sure that there’d be two-digit or more girls secretly writing love letters to you.)

“Let’s not mention that spirit-dampening guy.”

There was no legal age for marriage in the Nine Provinces. Therefore, getting into a relationship at a young age wasn’t an issue here. Even if Sun Mo wanted to preach, he had no reason to justify his actions.

“Ziqi, how much money do I have now?”

“What?”

Li Ziqi blinked.

“Uhh!”

Sun Mo was stumped. He couldn’t possibly say ‘Give me some silver notes. I’m going to spend nights at Qinhuai, watching famous prostitutes sing songs and have a good time with the ladies.’

“To buy a house.”

Sun Mo thought of an excuse.

(This is very reasonable! I’m giving a like to my quick-wittedness!)

“Huh?” Li Ziqi was perplexed. “Why do you need to buy a house?”

The Central Province Academy was An Xinhui’s private property. As her fiancé, Sun Mo was naturally also the owner of this famous school.

The villas here had a nice and quiet environment, with a comfortable set-up. Sun Mo could live in different villas each day!

If he were to go to the countryside, there was also a massive royal manor to reside in.

“You don’t understand. Having a premises permit with one’s own name on it is the dream for every man!”

Sun Mo sighed.

In the modern world, property prices shot up very quickly and if a poor person like him didn’t rely on their parents, they wouldn’t be able to afford one. However, right now…

(I’m going to buy a house! Buy a villa!)

“Approximately, how much does the best house in Jinling cost?”

Sun Mo suddenly felt very curious.

“Five million silver taels. But for such properties, you won’t be able to buy them even if you have money.”

Li Ziqi thought to herself, (It’s my aunt’s house.)

“Over a billion?”

Sun Mo was shocked.

The value of silver was more stable in the Great Tang. 1 silver tael could be converted to slightly over 300 renminbi. If he went by that conversion, the most expensive house would cost over a billion RMB.

Hold on, this didn’t seem too expensive when compared to a siheyuan [1]?

But not having the right to buy it was the most upsetting thing.

“Teacher, if you wish to buy a property, should I get someone to find it for you?”

Li Ziqi had decided to think of a way to find the best manor for her teacher.

This was how precious land was, being on the first-come-first-serve basis. They’d only be freed up if those extremely rich people were to commit wrongdoings and had their possessions confiscated.

However, those who could accumulate such massive wealth would probably have dealt with improper activities. As long as one was willing to investigate things, they’d be able to find something.

(Sigh! For Teacher’s sake, don’t blame me for being ruthless! You can only blame that Teacher needs your manor!)

“There’s no need to go to such trouble. Let’s just check out the properties directly!”

Sun Mo was seized by a whim. He wondered if there were any young female salespeople selling properties while wearing professional clothing in Jinling. He was looking forward to the experience. “Oh right, how much money do I have?”

“Ignoring the smaller denominations, you have 3.12 million taels!”

As the little housekeeper, Li Ziqi knew about Sun Mo’s money very well.

“Huh? A billion?”

Sun Mo was agitated. (It’s said that the most beautiful Yangzhou thin horses[2] cost only several thousand silver taels. How many of those can I buy?)

(Pui! Pui! I’m a great teacher! How can I have such vile thoughts? But I really want some! After all, they are legal!)

“Your first huge income came from what was found at the Daoist temple after having gotten rid of Daoist White Bird, as well as a ‘monetary gift’ sent over after Old Master Zheng had confiscated Prince Li’s manor. However, a part of it has been given to the school, as salary as well as to the farmers who bring over vegetables and food, and rely on the school for a living.”

Li Ziqi introduced, “After the giant medicine packets and the spring water beauty medicine packets started being put up on sale, their sales gradually became the bulk of your income.”

“To think that I would rely on selling medicine packets and earning dead people’s money to become rich?”

Sun Mo was surprised.

(Aren’t I too weak as a 4-stars great teacher? Where’s the agreed rich remuneration? Other 4-stars great teachers are eating meat, but why am I eating vegetables?)

“Your reputation has surged tremendously and the school has also risen to ‘B’ grade. The number of students enrolling in the school will definitely increase tremendously. Out of which, those who came from wealthy families should contribute a big sum of school fee.”

Li Ziqi explained.

The children who came from both poor and rich families paid the same amount of school fees. However, if some children couldn’t get into the school through their capabilities, they could pay for a ticket to get into the school.

In the past, the Central Province Academy almost had to be removed of its title as a famous school and would naturally not be able to get this amount of money. However, this year, things would be different. With just Sun Mo’s identities as a saint candidate, as well as the number one spirit runist in the Nine Provinces, they’d be able to attract a lot of new students.

“Haiz, I’m not going to think so much! Come, let’s go and buy a house!”

Sun Mo said with great valor.

(I’m a multi-millionaire. It’d be nothing to buy a house that cost several ten million.)

[1] A siheyuan is a historical type of residence that was commonly found throughout China, most famously in Beijing and rural Shanxi.

[2] Thin horses is a term used during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, referring to beautiful, young girls who had been trained. They are usually more culturally literate, proficient in sophistication and human relationships, and can treat others well. However, they are commodities.. They have lost their freedom, and their fate is in the hands of others.
