Chapter 353: Chapter 0353: The Way to Make Money
As for scheming, the Wuu Family relied mainly on common human means.
This time, Long Fei was going to use some unconventional methods. If he didn’t extort a hefty sum from the Wuu Family, they’d still think they could push him around.
Lin Yingying opened up his haul from Qingdong City to inspect and stared at the Ginseng for a long while, full of surprise she said, "Is this the Ginseng you mentioned was auctioned off for two hundred million?"
"That’s right!"
Long Fei nodded.
As soon as Lin Shanshan heard "two hundred million," she immediately looked up.
She looked incredulously at Long Fei and asked, "This carrot is worth two hundred million?"
"It’s Ginseng!"
Long Fei corrected.
"Isn’t it the same thing!"
Lin Shanshan smacked her lips, put down her notebook, and said with a speechless face, "Brother-in-law, you spent two hundred million to buy this thing?"
Lin Yingying chuckled and said, "He’s so stingy, how could he bear to buy it? This thing was bought by someone else and then extorted by him."
Long Fei retorted as if spitting blood, "Hey, I heroically rescued a damsel in distress and earned it with great effort, okay?"
Lin Shanshan, holding the object, wailed, "Two hundred million! Who is so wasteful to just buy this. With this money, they might as well invest in me, I could give them ten times the profit in a minute."
Long Fei and Lin Yingying couldn’t help but laugh when they heard this; in fact, Long Fei had planned to invest in her when he returned this time.
However, he was now planning to have the Wuu Family foot the bill.
Lin Yingying yawned, got up, and said, "I’m going to sleep, I still have to work tomorrow!"
She gave Long Fei a pointed look, hinting directly with her gaze.
How could Long Fei not understand, but he still had his own plans to attend to and for the time being, he couldn’t afford to release his essential Qi on that.
Lin Yingying thought he didn’t understand and pursed her lips to remind him again, "Long Fei, aren’t you sleepy?"
Long Fei shook his head, pretending to be naive and said, "I’ve got things to do, you go to sleep first!"
Lin Yingying took a breath, really wanting to kick him out with one foot.
She went back to the bedroom and with a plop, closed the door, exerting quite a lot of strength.
Lin Shanshan was amused by her and teased Long Fei, "See that? My sister is hitting menopause early."
"Great minds think alike."
Long Fei laughed, took out cinnabar and paper from beneath the coffee table, set them on top, and busied himself.
This time he was going to draw a Yin-Gathering Talisman.
Just by hearing the name, one could guess this talisman was used to gather Yin Qi, completely opposite to the attributes of a Spirit-Gathering Talisman.
Through the release of spiritual power, it could change the surrounding magnetic field, creating a vortex to attract Yin Qi from within a hundred meters radius.
Long Fei’s spiritual power could only achieve this extent at the moment; if it were those masters, with a tweet of their spiritual power, they could attract the Yin Qi from an entire city.
That would definitely be a scene of ghostly processions, terrifying beyond belief.
After Lin Shanshan finished her work, she closed her laptop and had some tea. First, she fiddled with the Ginseng, then stared at Long Fei for a while.
If it were jade, diamond rings, handbags, clothes, or something like that, she and Lin Yingying might still be interested.
But as for Ginseng and talismans, they really couldn’t muster the energy.
She bid him goodnight and went back to her room to sleep. Long Fei was busy outside all night long.
Of course, there was that stinky dog as well.
Long Fei was worried it would eat the Ginseng, so before falling into a deep sleep, he specifically hid the Ginseng on his body.
His body had a self-protective function; if someone touched him while he was sleeping, he would instinctively retaliate.
The Bald Dog was full of disgruntlement, having fixated on the Ginseng for quite some time, only to find its master had seen right through its intentions.
Such a level of Ginseng hardly made it to the stage in their world.
However, in this world, it was already quite extraordinary.
Two-hundred-year-old Ginseng, nurtured with Spiritual Energy.
This was different from ordinary Ginseng, which contained essence that had impurities to be removed.
While Spiritual Energy could be absorbed directly without any side effects, the effect was much better than that of essence.
The Great Demons of their world all relied on such heavenly treasures to enhance their Cultivation Levels.
Ginseng of over a thousand years was consumed like carrots, extravagantly wasted.
The Human Race and they were irreconcilable, and in the end, it was all about competing for cultivation resources.
Long Fei meticulously poured his spiritual power into the tip of his brush as he drew.
When dawn came, he finally collapsed onto the desk and fell into a deep sleep.
The Bald Dog thought the moment had come, tiptoed over, waved in front of Long Fei’s eyes, and reached out its paw to take the ginseng from his embrace.
But as soon as its paw touched Long Fei,
Long Fei’s hand suddenly lashed out, catching it by surprise and flinging it across the room to crash into the wall.
The Bald Dog’s insides churned, and had its body not been so sturdy, it might have exploded from its cheap owner’s slap.
It whined twice, thinking Long Fei was pretending to sleep.
It laid down and waited a while, feeling that enough time had passed, then tried to approach Long Fei again with light steps.
But it was the same as before; Long Fei was clearly deep in sleep, snoring loudly even.
Yet, his hand reacted instinctively, flinging the Bald Dog away once more.
The Bald Dog rolled on the ground in despair, howling with the thought that as soon as it recovered from its injuries, it would devour Long Fei, even if it meant clashing with Five Thunderbolts, to exact revenge.
Damn it, you can’t bully a dog like this!
The next day, when Long Fei woke up, his house was already empty.
After Lin Yingying and her sister opened their governor and conception vessels, they both felt much more energetic than before, and their strength seemed to have grown considerably.
Now that they were busy with work and school, they no longer depended on Long Fei for protection.
Long Fei sat still for a moment, then quickly reached out to feel around.
Once he was sure the ginseng was still there, he let out a sigh of relief.
The Bald Dog’s eyes gleamed as it stared at him from the opposite side.
Seeing his reaction, it was certain that last night was just Long Fei’s instinct, not him intentionally playing with it.
Its fragile little heart was somewhat appeased.
After taking a bath, Long Fei took out the medicinal herbs he had bought the previous night, replacing them with the two-hundred-year-old ginseng, and then went to the kitchen to start cooking the body tempering potion.
Currently, his Cultivation Level was not high enough to refine pills.
Pill-making required extremely precise temperature control and needed to be done in a cauldron.
Ordinary flames simply wouldn’t suffice.
One needed to harness Pill Flame with spiritual power.
He also made a call to Qian Youdao, who had been quite admiring of him the other day.
Before leaving, not only did he give his phone number, but he also hinted at wanting to follow Long Fei in cultivation.
Long Fei was now a friend to the elderly, as all his followers were old men.
He had no interest in this, and had simply humored the man without agreeing at the time.
Now, a single phone call, and Qian Youdao personally drove over in less than half an hour.
The old fellow was a sophisticated man, driving an old-model Santana.
He wasn’t short of money; he just liked the style.
When Long Fei called him up to the third floor, Qian Youdao was greeted by the scent of the tempering medicine at the door and, furrowing his brows, he asked with surprise, "May I ask, Mage, are you refining pills?"
In front of a Practitioner, he showed great respect.
Despite his advanced years, he didn’t feel awkward in the slightest.
The strong are revered; this was a fundamental Law in the Cultivation World, and Qian Youdao saw it very clearly.
Long Fei invited him to sit on the sofa and said with a faint smile, "What pill? It’s just some rudimentary body tempering potion. Today, you’re in luck, you’ll have the chance to test its effects."
"How could I possibly impose!"
Qian Youdao’s heart leaped with excitement; though he was polite with his words, his face beamed with joy.
Being a Feng Shui Master, he wasn’t very knowledgeable about the field of pills.
Today was indeed his lucky day; if he could learn even a little from Long Fei, it would be enough for him to use in his future cultivation.
