Chapter 318: Chapter 316: She Made a Killing This Time

Teng Zhao was willing to become Qin Liuxi’s disciple, and although his father Teng Tianhan was reluctant, he finally let go but insisted on taking his son to Li City.

Teng Tianhan understood that this might be the last opportunity for a warm father-son moment, as once in Li City, it would likely be a long time before he could see Teng Zhao again.

Qin Liuxi saw Teng Tianhan’s insistence and did not refuse, after all, she had taken away someone’s son, she could hardly deny this request.

It was just becoming her disciple, not severing all mortal ties.

Since Teng Tianhan insisted on accompanying him, it wasn’t a simple matter of just setting off; all necessary preparations had to be made, including arrangements for people and more importantly, gathering Teng Zhao’s personal belongings.

Qin Liuxi looked at the numerous large boxes, and with a twitch of her lips, said, "Since he has taken me as his master, he should naturally follow me in learning the Dao and cultivation. There’s no need to keep those jewels and decorations, just pack a few sets of plain clothes for him."

Everyone was stunned, looking helplessly towards Teng Zhao and then at Teng Tianhan and Mr. Qi, who had always been his mentor.

Mr. Qi said, "He is accustomed to..."

"Habits are formed, and in a new place, he will naturally form new habits and adapt." Qin Liuxi looked at Teng Zhao, showing a meaningful smile.

Teng Zhao: "..."

"And the food, utensils, and medicine."

Qin Liuxi: "You seem to have forgotten my profession. I am skilled in medicine, and I will take care of his health as his master. However, do bring the medicinal herbs, I will prepare them for him."

Anyway, she would have to buy them once back in Li City. At present, financially strapped and now needing to support two new disciples, she had to be frugal and mindful of expenses everywhere.

Reflecting on this, Qin Liuxi then said, "Bring all the Silver Zhaozhao has."

Everyone gasped, looking at Qin Liuxi with a mix of indignation.

Even Teng Zhao looked towards Qin Liuxi, and Teng Tianhan lost his usual composure, his handsome face slightly distorted.

It seemed, are you taking disciples to make money for retirement?

Qin Liuxi gave an awkward laugh: "His body needs long-term care, and the best medicines are very expensive. I don’t take many jobs, and as a monk, handling money isn’t my forte."

See, becoming her disciple still means having to earn money for oneself.

The Teng family servants looked towards their young master with pity in their eyes, thinking maybe they should not proceed with this mentorship—it seems unreliable and financially tenuous.

"But don’t worry, this money issue is only temporary. My abilities are great, and if I engage with wealthy clients, money won’t be a problem." Qin Liuxi continued cheerfully.

Believe that if you will.

Teng Tianhan had already looked towards the steward, instructing him to open an account at Da Feng Bank immediately, deposit some Silver, and bring back the small seal.

If the master can’t be relied upon, he, as a father, must make arrangements—his son would need financial security.

Teng Tianhan looked at his son’s impassive face, feeling that perhaps providing more Silver could alleviate some of the guilt in his heart.

Wang Chuan stood next to Teng Zhao, wanting to grab his hand, saying, "Senior brother, we must trust our master."

Teng Zhao avoided her hand, placing his hands behind his back.

Wang Chuan wasn’t upset, instead gently pinching his sleeve with two fingers.

The next day.

The side gate of Teng Mansion opened, with guards and servants already placing luggage on the horse carriage outside.

Old Chou stood in front of the horse carriage, watching this grand departure and thought Master Buqiu truly knew how immense wealth could be made; arriving alone, but leaving with cumbersome baggage and even two new disciples, one carrying immense wealth.

She definitely made a fortune this time.

Teng Tianhan walked out with a stern face, followed by the smiling Qin Liuxi and her two new disciples.

The vast contrast was just like a father unhappily marrying off a daughter.

Teng Tianhan had this intense feeling of losing control over his grown child, now taken away by someone else.

"Finally, you came out!"

Suddenly a loud shout rang out, someone dashed towards them.
