As the old saying goes, a penny can stump a heroic man. Wang Lu laughed at himself, claiming to be a professional adventurer, but he was really stumped by a penny.

The withdrawal of hands in the face of battle was mostly out of intuition, but Wang Lu did not regret it because he felt that he had made the right bet.

What is the value of the proprietress's copper plate? Wang Lu couldn't tell clearly, but its value should not be limited to a Taoyuan village...? To be honest, before Heiying said a penny, Wang Lu only regarded the copper plate as an ordinary copper plate.

But this almost compulsory refund of tuition fees aroused his vigilance.

In the game... oh no, many adventures have such a setting. If the items obtained at the beginning of the adventure can be kept until the end, they can often exert incredible magical effects. This copper plate seems to be such a magical prop. If it is used in

You will waste it rashly in the middle, but at the end you will be beating your chest and rejoicing.

The more Wang Lu thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was good, but the next question was, you have to get through the difficulty of a penny, so where can you find another penny in the mountain?

Of course, this kind of question is also simple. Just ask the village chief directly. Your favorability level is already maxed out, so there is nothing difficult to ask.

"money?"

However, when the village chief heard Wang Lu's request, his brows furrowed deeper than the sea.

"If you want anything else, that's easy, but this money... I have never seen it before. If there is exchange in the village, it is barter. There is no ordinary equivalent like you mentioned."

Wang Lu clicked his tongue, thinking that you, a loser, are indeed unreliable.

So just rely on yourself.

"Village Chief, it doesn't matter if you don't have money. If you don't have it, we can just invent it."

"Ah?!" The village chief was puzzled.

Wang Lu explained: "Although there are not many people in Taoyuan Village, it is rich in products and has frequent transactions. If there is no general equivalent, it is actually very inconvenient. Why not use your credit as the village chief as a guarantee and issue a set of currency for everyone to use."

"

The village chief was stunned: "Issue...currency?"

"Yes, you can use shells, precious metals and the like. If it's troublesome, you can just print it with paper. Anyway, it's a credit guarantee. And once there is a currency system, the resource allocation in the village will be more efficient, and the productivity will be greatly improved."

Improve the quality of people's lives to a new level! As for me, who has single-handedly contributed to such an economic miracle, all I need is a penny!"

The more Wang Lu talked, the more excited he became, thinking that this stupid task really had to be solved with this stupid solution. God knows where you hid the mission copper plate in your groin. I am too lazy to guess and look for it. I will have enough food and clothing by myself!

Unexpectedly, even though Wang Lu kept talking for a long time, the village chief shook his head after a long silence.

"No."

Wang Lu almost jumped up: "No!? Do you know what you are talking about?"

The village chief continued to shake his head: "Issuing currency is not feasible."

"It's over, why can't it be done? Could it be that everything I just said was fed to the dog? It doesn't matter, let's start over..." Wang Lu showed amazing patience.

"Young Master Wang, I understand what you said." The village chief sighed, "But this is really not possible."

"Give me a reason first."

"..." This question seemed to stump the village chief. After a long while, the village chief said hesitantly, "The laws of our ancestors are immutable."

"The ancestral method is inconvenient? Are you constipated!?" Wang Lu was so angry that he jumped three feet in the air. "You have the nerve to say this stupid reason? Did I increase my favorability level and the data overflowed?"

The village chief added: "I know they are very good, but I don't like them."

"Damn it, you're an old man in his fifties or sixties, aren't you afraid of having a myocardial infarction in your life if you act so cute?"

It was unknown whether the village chief would have a myocardial infarction, but Wang Lu was almost going to have a myocardial infarction.

As an adventurer who has a tacit understanding with the level designer, his advantage on the road to immortality is overwhelming. However, at this time, the designer's ideas suddenly deviate from his, which is extremely painful.

What is even more painful is that the current situation seems to be a rogue designer. The village chief seems to have a normal level of intelligence, but at this time he can't even speak human words. He looks like he has been conspired by Aunt Liu and He Lu.

He was drugged to look like a fool, and there is nothing fishy about it...

"Okay, let's not go around in circles. What do you want? Let's go down the road."

The village chief looked confused: "What way?"

"..." Wang Lu frowned and remained silent for a long time, his eyes scanning the village chief, making the old man feel uncomfortable all over.

"Forget it, just pretend I haven't been here today."

——

At the same time, above the cloud.

"...I think it's not a good idea to do this, right?"

A certain dark figure was observing the changes in the clouds in the magical paradise with a hesitant look on his face. The conversation between Wang Lu and the village chief was clearly visible here.

On the other side, a woman in white sneered: "For children like this who like to cheat, not banning them directly is already showing mercy."

The black shadow really couldn't stand it: "You have the nerve to accuse others of cheating? It's obvious that the flaws in the design of your Taoyuan Village were discovered by others."

The woman in white said awkwardly: "What kind of flaw? Little Ling'er, you don't understand and don't talk nonsense... The elder's flaw, is that also called a flaw?"

The black shadow just sneered: "Taking unauthorized changes to the path to immortality, patting his chest in front of the elders and saying that this level is as rigorous and exquisite as the Yunbo Tu and Netherworld Dao that have been passed down by the sect for thousands of years. When something goes wrong, he quietly comes to interfere forcefully.

process……"

"Hey, hey, little Ling'er, why are you talking to him like this? Have you forgotten about our years of sisterhood?"

"Humph, he helped me win that bet. Of course I have to speak for him. And I said to you, don't play if you can't afford it. The elder of Tianjian Hall doesn't even have this responsibility?"

The woman in white suddenly became angry: "Tianjian Hall? Ha, that idiot in charge hasn't given me Tianjian Hall's subsidy until now. Why should I have the responsibility of Tianjian Hall? I'm just cheating! When will I pay it?

I'll give you a bonus, when will I change my job and become a decent expert again!"

"...Although the Spirit Sword Sect is big, you are probably the only one who can say this." Heiying really had to accept the shamelessness of the woman in white.

While speaking, the woman in white had already ordered the Taoyuan Village Chief to force Wang Lusheng away, stroking her hands and smiling, "I want to see what other tricks you have this time."

Then the voice of an old man behind him sounded coldly: "I want to see how you plan to explain it to the elder in charge this time."

The smile of the woman in white was frozen for an instant. When she turned around tremblingly, her smile had become extremely far-fetched: "Oh, isn't this the head brother? It's really a long way to welcome me as a distinguished guest..."

"How big is your distinguished guest! This is my home!"

"Really? I thought it was from my family. Recently, Lu Chi's problems have become more and more serious. Senior brother, would you like to allocate tens of thousands of spiritual stones to me for treatment...?"

"Before we cure your road-crazy problem, let's cure your arrogance first! Previously, it was just a random modification of the path to immortality. This time, while I was away, I tampered with the path to immortality. Tsk tsk, don't even think about your salary this year.

wanted."

"Holy shit, right!?"

"In addition, you said that as an elder of Tianjian Hall, you have never been able to receive subsidies. This is indeed not good."

The woman in white regained hope: "So...?"

"So stop being an elder and just practice at your Phaseless Peak with peace of mind. When you reach the Nascent Soul realm, and when I reopen Tianjian Hall, I will definitely give you a full subsidy!"

"Holy crap! Senior brother, I am actually doing my best for the good of the sect, and I am also thinking about you!"

"Besides, I won't even deduct the basic offerings from your sect!"

"Senior brother, you don't know right from wrong and allow Zhu Zi to cheat. You will definitely regret it in the future!"

——

After driving away the troublesome woman in white, the supreme leader of the Spirit Sword Sect turned his head again, only to find that the black figure had disappeared.

The leader sighed, knowing that there was nothing he could do, and turned his attention back to the Immortal Ascension Picture. The Immortal Family's magic weapon, which controlled the entire path to immortality, was messed up by the woman in white. However, the leader reached out and touched the woman in white.

All traces left behind disappeared.

However, the leader pondered for a moment and then added something to the Immortal Ascension Diagram.

"Although junior sister likes to fool around, since there is really a loophole, it is better to seal it. But...doesn't that copper coin look familiar? Forget it, I don't wear glasses, so I won't look at it."

——

On the other side, Wang Lu, whose sure-win method was forcibly blocked, also realized that this road was impassable.

Although he despised the Spirit Sword Sect's rogue approach, Wang Lu would not hang himself from a tree if the opportunistic path failed.

"Then, let's think carefully about the method of attack... What else can we do if we want to get the money in the mountains? To get the money, at least the money must exist first. Is there any clues that I missed in this village?

?... Damn it, it’s obviously impossible!? We are professionals!”

Wang Lu slammed the table angrily, showing full confidence in his professional abilities.

He had been preparing in Taoyuan Village for a full month. Although he did not leave home, he knew all the details in the village. It was impossible to miss anything. Otherwise, he would not have been able to create a wave strategy. However, now

We have clearly reached the end. If we cannot find the way out, the road to immortality will end here.

"Damn it, money in the mountains, money in the mountains... Where can there be money in the mountains? This village has obviously been searched all over. Could it be..."

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Wang Lu's mind.

"Tsk, I forgot about that person. My professionalism is crying."

Afterwards, Wang Lu walked out of the courtyard with a self-deprecating smile, and happened to see two defeated dog testers passing by.

"What a coincidence, hey, you two are close relatives..."

Before he finished speaking, a black shadow fell from the sky, grabbed Wang Lu, and rushed back into the house like the wind.
