    Bai Suxian was kneeling next to Zhang Tie, concentrating on mixing wine for Zhang Tie. When he heard Zhang Tie's words, he just smiled slightly, looked at Zhang Tie with beautiful eyes, and said nothing.  +, Bai Suxian didn¡¯t say anything, but the captain who had been maneuvering the boat laughed at the stern and said boldly while rocking the oar, "Young Master Cui doesn¡¯t understand. There are many wealthy families in Xuanyuan Hill, but  Most of them are ordinary people like me. Ordinary people naturally want to make money to live. Most ordinary people want to make money, have no connections and are reluctant to leave Xuanyuan Hill. Naturally, they also work hard on food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking and entertainment.  , just like me, Lao Zhou, I also rely on this boat to earn a living in Xuanyuan Hill! " Lao Zhou is the owner of this boat and makes a living on the Jinshui River. Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian rented a boat to cruise the Jinshui River today.  He also hired Lao Zhou to operate the boat. Neither of them revealed their identities. They met Lao Zhou when they were looking for a boat at a dock by the river like ordinary people. Zhang Tie saw that Lao Zhou was a bit special among the boatmen.  Not only was he physically strong, but he was also an eighth-level warrior with a kind face. He asked Lao Zhou about the price of renting a boat and hiring people, and without any counter-offer, he let Lao Zhou sail the boat. The two of them only told Lao Zhou  Zhang Tie's surname was Cui, and Bai Suxian's surname was Bai. Lao Zhou also called Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian Mr. Cui and Miss Bai.  "Haha, Lao Zhou, what do you mean by saying you are reluctant to leave Xuanyuan Hill? In a place like Xuanyuan Hill, does anyone dare to force you to leave and do evil openly?" Zhang Tie asked with interest, asking these market people  Perhaps others would no longer be interested in such things when they reached Zhang Tie's status, but Zhang Tie was originally from the market.  So I am particularly interested in these things.  I visited some places in Xuanyuan Hill in the past few days.  Those legends and allusions of heroes and great men, those high-rise gates.  It's interesting, it's interesting, it's grand, but it's still a bit stiff for Zhang Tie. Only today I arrived on the Jinshui River, watching the boats coming and going on the Jinshui River, smelling the fragrance of the wine in the wine shop on the bank, and listening to the  With the noisy hawking in a southern and northern tune, the image of Xuanyuan Hill slowly came alive in Zhang Tie's heart.  ¡°It¡¯s not forced, it¡¯s voluntary!¡± Lao Zhou shuttled flexibly in the Jinshui River in a small boat.  When I said this, I had just avoided a two-story painted boat. The sound of silk and bamboo and the melodious singing of a woman could be heard from the painted boat. This was also a boat doing business on the Jinshui River. The second floor of the painted boat  When several men passed by the boat, they saw Bai Suxian with an affectionate smile on the boat. They all couldn't help but open their mouths. When the boat went away, they turned to look.  Bai Suxian heard that the song coming from the boat was Zhang Tie's "Lovers".  Then he smiled at Zhang Tie and winked mischievously.  The Jinshui River is a man-made canal that connects the Three Lakes and Xuanyuan Hills, so the river is wide.  But on weekdays, the waves are calm and there are no strong winds or waves.  Even if it is a small boat on the Jinshui River.  As long as the person operating the boat is skilled, he can still walk on flat ground.  After listening to what Lao Zhou said.  Zhang Tie was even more surprised, "Voluntary? As long as someone can stay in a place like this, would anyone want to leave?" "I heard that even if I travel across the human race, I can't find another place comparable to Xuanyuan Hill.  If you want to live a decent life in Xuanyuan Qiu, who is willing to leave such a feng shui treasured place? Isn¡¯t it impossible to leave?" Lao Zhou sighed while smearing his milk, "But people have to live, and if you want to live, you have to live.  You have to make money, otherwise your whole family can't live by breathing air in Xuanyuan Hill! " "That's true. Life is just food, clothing, housing and transportation. Money is not everything, but without money, especially  It is absolutely impossible to live in a place like Xuanyuan Hill without money!" Zhang Tie said with a smile.  "Who says it's not the case! It's not easy to live in Xuanyuan Hill for a long time" Lao Zhou was so excited that he clapped his hands and made a crisp sound, "The land and houses of each family living in Xuanyuan Hill now are all  It was a gift from the Taixia royal family. According to regulations, it cannot be resold and traded. If no one inherits it, it will be taken back by the royal family. What I mean when I say I am reluctant to leave Xuanyuan Hill is that if I am willing to leave Xuanyuan Hill, I will give up my life in Xuanyuan Hill.  Renting out the family home can bring in a lot of income for a year, and the income is steady. With this income, even if they leave Xuanyuan Hill and go to a place like the Nine Divine Lands, the family can live a life of a wealthy family, every day.  There is no need to run around and work hard for life. Taixia wants to come to Xuanyuan Hill to settle down and get a front office. There are so many wealthy business groups. Even though the rent of houses in Xuanyuan Hill is now the highest in the world, the annual rent for a three-foot house in a corner is  It costs thousands of gold coins, but it¡¯s still hard to find a house, and it¡¯s priceless!¡± ¡°Just like in my family, our ancestors were the Zuo Zhonghou of Xuanyuan Hill, and they were able to get a house in Xuanyuan Hill by virtue of their merits!  This small house was once a prosperous place for our Zhou family. I heard my grandfather say that when our ancestors returned to Xunzhou to pay homage to their ancestors, the governor of Xunzhou would entertain them with banquets.After the death of our ancestors, our Zhou family was protected by our ancestors and prospered for several decades. However, in these decades, two generations of the Zhou family have never produced any decent descendants. When it comes to my grandfather,  In that generation, the Zhou family gradually declined, and the relationship between our Zhou family and Zhi Jinwu also faded. By the time of my generation, we three brothers of the Zhou family, and I am the eldest, inherited the Zhou family¡¯s role in Xuanyuan.  Qiu's ancestral house is a small courtyard. My two brothers have left Xuanyuan Hill to go out to work to make a living!  " "Originally, my Zhou family's ancestral home was attracted by someone when my father was a child, and I heard that it was some noble from the subcontinent. They were willing to pay 20,000 gold coins a year to rent the Zhou family's home and renovate it.  Later, I lived in Xuanyuan Hill. At that time, our Zhou family was already in some difficulties. With a rent of 20,000 gold coins per year, our Zhou family¡¯s life could be changed immediately. But my father just didn¡¯t agree. Before my father passed away, he also specially  Called us three brothers to the bedside and told us to protect the Zhou family's inheritance and not leave Xuanyuan Hill?  " Zhang Tie was surprised, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you, Old Zhou, to be the queen of the generals, but the 20,000 gold coins per year is not a fraction. Your family's situation was not very good at the time, so why didn't you agree?  " Lao Zhou laughed, but what he said was not like a boat boss at all. "It's easy to leave Xuanyuan Hill and live a stable life, but once you leave, your family's descendants will want to live in Xuanyuan Hill in the future.  It is impossible to get ahead in a place like this, but as long as you stay, there is hope in the family. As long as one of the descendants of the family can succeed in a place like Xuanyuan Hill, they will soon be able to honor their ancestors, and a family will be able to achieve great success.  Get up, hey, hey, that little gold coin is a lot, but looking around the world, there is no place like Xuanyuan Hill, where experts are everywhere and opportunities are everywhere!  " " Xuanyuan Hill has the best school in the human race, the best education in the human race, the strongest knight in the human race, and the most opportunities for the human race to get ahead. As long as you stay, as long as there are successful descendants in the family, in the future,  The connections left by our ancestors can be revived, so a little money is nothing!  As an ordinary family, if you want to stay and give opportunities to the family's younger generations, you must find a way to make money to support the family. To be honest, I'm not afraid of the two of you laughing at me. In order to support this family, I always  Zhou was steering the boat on the river with only a handful of strength, while my mother-in-law was selling wine. The peach blossom wine the two of them drank on the boat was made by my mother-in-law, who picked the peach blossoms in the yard at home every year  ¡­¡± Zhang Tie didn¡¯t make fun of him, but was in awe. What Lao Zhou and his wife did was almost the same as what his parents did in Black Flame City. These are Chinese parents who would do anything for their children.  Sacrificing everything, this house in Xuanyuan Hill, understood from Lao Zhou's point of view, is almost the number one school district house in the human race, in order to give the younger generation of the family a chance, one who can be slowly influenced by the world of Xuanyuan Hill.  Opportunities, in Xuanyuan Hill, I don¡¯t know how many parents and families like Lao Zhou have given up the opportunity to become rich easily, and persisted in Xuanyuan Hill, doing menial jobs, waiting for their children to stand out and honor their ancestors.  One day. Of course, not all families are like Lao Zhou. Each family has its own situation, but with the size and population of Xuanyuan Hill, there are definitely many families like Lao Zhou, and even account for 10% of them.  The vast majority of the general ancestral shade can last for hundreds of years. However, how long Xuanyuan Hill has been in existence is almost more than 800 years. Those who can still enjoy the ancestral shade for so many years, the entire Xuanyuan Hill  , it is estimated that few of them can be found. The ancestors of these families have been glorious, otherwise they would not stay in Xuanyuan Hill. Therefore, in future generations, the idea of ????restoring the glory of the family and even taking it to the next level is very important.  It has become the biggest obsession and pursuit of many families for generations. ¡°Lao Zhou, how many children do you have at home?  " Talking about the children in the family, Lao Zhou's face became brighter and his voice became louder unconsciously. "There are eight children in the family, three daughters and five sons. Three of the five sons are honest.  , the talents are average, and the other two have some skills now. The sixth one has the talent of refining weapons. He is now an apprentice at the headquarters of the Rune Weapon Refiner Guild, helping people run errands, but he can learn skills, and the eldest brother is practicing martial arts.  He is able to work hard and is a decent person. The family has used the connections left by his ancestors in Zhijinwu. The boss himself is also very good, so he joined Zhijinwu. Now he is a corps leader, and he knows how to send money to his family.  Got it!  ¡± The persistence of the Zhou family for several generations finally paid off when the next generation of old Zhou came. Institutions and locations like the headquarters of the Human Race Rune Refiner Guild and Xuanyuan Hill Zhijinwu, in other places, you can enter wherever you want.  "According to what you said, Lao Zhou, wouldn't those families whose land and properties in Xuanyuan Hill have been taken back have suffered a great loss" "Hehe."??, those rules are dead, but people are alive. How can a living person be suffocated to death? Mr. Cui probably doesn¡¯t know when he first came to Xuanyuan Hill. Go and ask around. In the past few hundred years, Xuanyuan has  Where else in Zhiqiu could land and properties be taken back again?  "Lao Zhou laughed (To be continued)
