"Husband, what is it?" Gu Hanyan said coquettishly.

"Look!" Tang Wen reached out and grabbed it, a roar came out, a blue light flashed in the sky, and a weird-looking crane appeared. It was as tall as a person when it stood, and it was five feet long.

However, the body actually looks like a tiger, except that it has wings on its back.

"He'er?" Gu Hanyan was stunned.

"Come, I'll teach you how to sign a contract with it.

At that time, it will be your contracted bird and it will be very obedient.

You ride on it and fly much faster than an eagle.

Moreover, it is a tiger crane whose strength has reached the concentration level." Tang Wen said with a smile.

"Concentration Realm Tiger Crane, is it real or fake?" Mei Zhenhong, who was standing nearby, couldn't believe it at all and looked at Tang Wen.

"Come on, let's show it to everyone." Tang Wen used the skills of an animal tamer to instruct Huhe.

The tiger and crane showed their fierce looks, roared filial piety, raised their paws and slapped them in the distance.

Suddenly, a big tree was knocked down at a distance of seventy or eighty feet.

"Husband, it is so fierce and I am not as powerful as it. What if it gets angry?" Gu Hanyan asked worriedly.

"Once you sign a contract, you can communicate with him directly using your mind. It can understand what you say. However, it cannot understand what others say. So, it will only listen to your words. If you don't believe it, let me try it for you first."

Tang Wendao.

"Okay." Gu Hanyan also wanted to get it, because owning it was equivalent to having a bodyguard in the Concentration Realm with him.

Moreover, you can ride it and run away when you can't defeat others.

After bleeding, he signed a contract with it according to the method of the contract beast. Suddenly, Gu Hanyan was dumbfounded.

"Little madam, how are you?" Mei Zhenhong looked at Gu Hanyan with a curious face.

"It seems like I have a blood connection with it, and I can feel its inner thoughts." Gu Hanyan said with appreciation.

"What do you order it to do to see if it obeys?" Mei Niansu said.

"Come here, squat down!" Gu Hanyan pointed at the tiger crane and shouted, and the tall tiger crane walked over obediently.

Gu Hanyan got on the horse and said, "Fly around!"

Huhe screamed and carried Gu Hanyan into the sky for a day trip around the island.

"Giggle, giggle, it works so well, it works so well, this is the feeling of flying, it's so wonderful..." The little lady's laughter came from the sky above Koh Samui.

Everyone looked up to the sky, "It's the little lady!"

"What is that?"

"It looks like a tiger and has wings."

…

Mei Zhenhong, Mei Nianli, and Lin Jingru could only watch with envy and jealousy.

"Zhen Hong, Nian Su, Jing Ru, including Gu Mu Tong, you can also pick one for convenience," Tang Wen said.

Several people enthusiastically signed contracts with the birds and beasts, and the next moment, there were several beasts and birds in the sky.

"It's good, but they are too big. It would be scary and inconvenient to carry them around." After landing, Gu Hanyan said.

"Of course there is a way. This is a bag specially made for carrying spirit beasts. Just put it in it when traveling far away." Tang Wen took out the spirit beast bag and handed it away.

These spirit beast bags are not available in the Xuanwu Domain. Tang Wen got them from Duanmu Hongxiu.

The space is not large, and it can fit even a spiritual beast.

Below, Wen Jinyuan, Luo Yiwu, Zhan Dongwen and others also received spiritual beasts and signed contracts.

Suddenly, the sky over Koh Samui was full of birds. The people of the Tang family were stunned and worshiped like gods.

"Master, with it, it will be much more convenient for me to direct the project. I can just slap it on the butt and fly over wherever I want to go. It's quick and convenient." Zhan Dongwen was very satisfied.

"Of course, they fly very slowly. They are faster than a flying eagle. They can reach Jiangzhou in less than two thousand breaths." Luo Yiwu said with a smile.

"With them, we can travel across Chu." Li Liao said with a heroic look.

"Having said that, it's not possible to fly far away. You have to land and rest before leaving.

In terms of speed, it is only slightly faster than our Dachu Flying Eagle.

However, the higher the skill, the faster they fly. Therefore, since it is your contracted beast, you should step up your practice. As the skill increases, your contracted beast's ability will also increase, and it will fly faster.

But, they cost you a lot of money a year." Tang Wen said with a smile.

"Sir, how much food does this one need to eat in a year?" Mei Zhenhong asked.

"Your Iron-billed Crane's skill has reached the state of concentration. You eat a lot, and you have to eat well. It is estimated that you will spend two hundred thousand taels of silver a year." Tang Wen said.

"Hey, Miss Mei, how about we change it. Mine is less powerful and eats less. One hundred thousand taels should be enough." Wen Jinyuan said with a smile.

"Master, I ask for an increase in salary." Mei Zhenhong rolled her eyes.

"Your salary is not high enough. You earn 250,000 taels of silver a year." Luo Yiwu said.

“But since I have the highest skills, of course I have to get the highest salary.

If you don't give me a salary increase, master, I will have no money to buy clothes and I will dress like a beggar.

If you walk out, you will lose your master's face." Mei Zhenhong said.

"Well, that's right. You need to raise your salary. Yiwu, just give her an extra fifty thousand taels.

In this way, you already have 300,000 taels. After spending 200,000 taels on raising the spirit beast, you still have 100,000 taels left for expenses.

Of course, this is not enough money, but if you stay with me, sometimes there are important tasks, and if you perform well, you will be rewarded.

You are not married yet and are single, so it should be enough for you.

Everyone, one salary increase from now on will depend on how much you have done for the Tang family, and the second one will depend on your level of skill.

Therefore, you must strengthen your cultivation and not fall behind." Tang Wen said.

Because these spiritual beasts come from the Xuanwu Domain, the spiritual energy there is much stronger than here.

Therefore, when they come here, the food they eat every day must be mixed with powder made from spiritual stones to maintain the amount of spiritual energy they absorbed before.

Otherwise, over time, their skills will not advance but will retreat. They may even die.

As a result, the higher the skill of the spirit beast, the more spirit stone powder will naturally be needed, and the money spent will increase accordingly.

"Master, our bank's business has been very booming recently." At four o'clock in the afternoon, several people went shopping with Tang Wen, Luo Yiwu said with a smile.

"How popular is it?" Tang Wen asked.

"No one uses gold, silver, and copper plates anymore. People say that Tang coins are easy to carry and are not afraid of fire, water, or counterfeiting.

As a result, even the people around Yanling County and Jiangzhou City were mobilized.

Nowadays, a lot of people come to the bank to deposit money, and there are also a lot of people who exchange money, and they all have to queue up," said Luo Yiwu.

"Yes, they say that the very good boss, Shopkeeper Tang, owns several islands and has hundreds of thousands of servants.

There is also such a tall and grand Tang's Mall, even Linghai Academy is included in Tang's Trading Company.

Therefore, they are not afraid of losing the money they have saved, but they are afraid that they will not be able to save it." Wen Jinyuan said with a smile.

"Are there many people borrowing money?" Tang Wen asked.

“In the first few days, almost no one came to lend money, but after five or six days, some people started trying to lend money, and we gave them a loan.

Later, word spread, and now there are more and more people.

Because, they say, the usury interest borrowed from others is 30% or even 50%, and the most severe ones are 10% or even 30% per day.

Mr. Tang's bank only charges one hundredth of the price, which is much cheaper than them.

However, many people do not meet the conditions, and we cannot lend them money." Luo Yiwu said.

"In the future, we need to expand our business. For example, if the people come to borrow money, if the conditions are not met, they can use land deeds, real estate, land deeds, or even workshops, restaurants, etc. to get mortgage loans.

Of course, this requires an assessment of how much they are worth, but the loan limit cannot exceed 70% of their collateral.

In this way, even if the loan cannot be recovered, their fields or properties can be auctioned off to pay off the loan." Tang Wendao.

"Of course, those who borrow money from loan sharks can even use their children to offset the debt." Luo Yiwu nodded.

"We can also accept them, but we only accept young adults or adult women who can work." Tang Wen said.

…

"Sir, several of our excavators and trucks have been lost," Wen Jinyuan said.

"Lost? Who stole it?" Tang Wen was stunned.

"I don't know. The thief is very powerful. We can't find it. We doubt whether it is a master of the Kong family." Wen Jinyuan shook his head.

"What kind of things did the thieves steal? Please make a list of the lost items and show them to me." Tang Wen said.

"Master, I'll take it with me so you can take a look." Luo Yiwu said and took it out. Tang Wen took it and took a few glances. He was a little surprised. After thinking about it, he said, "Do you think it's strange?"
