He had the embossed name card in his hand, bearing the name of Dan Chenzi from the Luo Tian Creed.

A small smile appeared on Luo Chen’s face. “I’d like to discuss a small business deal. I wonder if your esteemed family would be interested?”

“Oh?”

“It’s related to Fu Zhu Deer.”

“Then, let’s hear it.”

After a while, Nangong Qin nodded with understanding.

“Indeed, it’s a good business deal; it seems profitable for both of us.” “However...”

At these words, Luo Chen, who had been full of smiles, quickly turned serious. Nangong Qin forced a smile on his face, “Our family has just moved to this location. We are now in the process of development and barely have room to manage other affairs. For now, we won’t be able to provide a stable supply of Fu Zhu Deer milk for your Creed. So...”

“I apologize!”

Luo Chen’s face slightly darkened. After some polite conversation, he excused himself and left.

Nangong Qin escorted him only to the front of the banquet hall, then he stopped accompanying him.

Watching Luo Chen’s retreating figure, a cold smile formed at the corner of his mouth.

“A mere Eighth Level Qi Refinement, acting like a lord in front of me, does he really think highly of himself!”

Suddenly, a slight movement caught his ear, and he promptly headed towards the back of the hall.

Soon after, he arrived at a quiet room underground filled with abundant Spirit Qi.

Stepping into the room, he took a deep breath and felt his whole body lighten. “Father, this Spirit Vein is extraordinary. It really has the effect of the Second Order.”

The middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on a cushion in the room opened his eyes.

His gaze fell to a corner of the room, full of reluctance.

“It was all exchanged with Medium Grade Spirit Stones. We can’t cultivate here for a long time, we can only make use of it urgently.”

Upon hearing this, Nangong Qin finally understood.

After all, it’s only a First Order Spirit Vein. The Spirit Qi in this place is abundant because a Spirit Gathering Array transforms Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

If they want to cultivate for a long period, the consumption would be huge.

After this realization, he became even more confused.

“If that’s the case, why refuse Luo Chen’s business proposition? Each month we could earn thousands of Spirit Stones; in just one year, that’s quite a sum.” The valuable parts of the Fu Zhu Deer are its antlers and blood; the meat, bones, and milk are useless.

The business deal of Luo Tian Creed is, in fact, creating a new source of income for them.

However, Nangong Jin shook his head.

“Xiao Qin, you don’t understand.”

“In business, we look at not only the profits but also the partner.”

Nangong Qin was puzzled, “Isn’t Luo Tian Creed covered by Steward Miao? He’s from Yu Ding Sword Sect; we should give him some respect!”

“Respect is definitely due. But how should we show it?”

“If we do it wrong, it could actually upset him.”

Nangong Jin didn’t spell it out but instead gently guided the future clan chief of the Nangong family to think for himself.

Nangong Qin, used to this kind of conversation, furrowed his brows and began deep thinking.

This is because of Miao Wen’s influence.

However, when it comes to business...

“No, at the beginning Nangong Qin was indeed interested.”

“But after hearing that it has nothing to do with elixirs, he outright refused.”

“So, was it a decision made by the Nangong Family’s power, weighing Miao Wen’s psychology?”

Thinking of this, Luo Chen felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Luo Tian Creed is indeed centered around him, serving his pill refinement.

But this power cannot solely rely on pill refinement, it absolutely won’t last.

Maintaining so many people for nothing, is absolutely wasteful.

Even if they can’t reach the comprehensive development of the Broken Mountain Gang, at least several aspects should be developed in parallel.

Luo Chen also does not want to take bigger steps and stretch himself too thin.

Therefore, he just planned to take it slow, using something as trivial as Fu Zhu Tea to do it little by little.

It is not only about opening the situation, but also about testing Miao Wen’s tolerance towards him.

Lastly, Miao Wen and Mi Shuhua are not the same.

Before Luo Chen could fleece Mi Shuhua, he knew about Mi Shuhua this person from Qin Liangchen, Wang Yuan, Zeng Wen and even through the mouths of many cultivators in the Medicine Hall.

Only after understanding the other’s character and temperament, as well as his way of handling things in general, could he be targeted for his capital.

However, Miao Wen, he is a true cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage coming from a Great Sect.

He has little exposure, and the external evaluation of him is mixed.

All his understanding of him is not accurate.

Most likely, it might be a mask that the other intentionally displays.

Especially considering the time when Miao Wen unintentionally, yet effectively questioned him.

This person is definitely not as amiable as he appears to be on the surface.

Under such circumstances, he must consider the other person’s reaction in whatever he does.

But looking at today’s test, it doesn’t seem to be great!

Suddenly, Luo Chen stopped walking.

Because Sima Xian came in front of him.

“What’s wrong?”

“Chairman, we may need to take a detour.”

“Huh?”

A huge fort stands in the wilderness plain.

Comer towers rise high around it, its walls are long and new, indicating it was built not long ago.

Flags flutter against the wind.

On the city wall of the fort, hangs a dark cyan plaque, with two words engraved on it — Fu Family!

Looking at this huge fort, with faintly more than a hundred people moving inside it, and even more ordinary people tilling the fields nearby,

Luo Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly..
