Chapter 104
Bai Muchuan didn't expect to receive a reply from Yin Jiuxiao so soon. The next day, the other party quickly agreed to the deal and arranged a meeting at Yin's house.
Yin Jiuxiao's actions were indeed decisive.
Last night, the Haihun City Chamber of Commerce received some news that someone broke into the area of the medicine store where red round wheat was planted late at night. The noise was quite unusual and even ordinary people living nearby heard it, but no one knew what exactly happened.
So today he and Zhou Xian went together again. As soon as they entered the small hall, they saw what was behind Yin Hengxie - a fresh red round wheat plant full of fruits was placed there. Its shape was very different from the common ones.
It was probably self-evident who had made the noise last night. The two of them were delighted and quickly sat down.
"I won't waste words. I've taken out Lin Qinghen's red round wheat, but the supply of elixirs needs to be discussed. I checked the warehouse, and the Yin family's consumption is also large. We can't supply so much at once," Yin Jiuxiao told them, "I have discussed it with the head of the family, and we can only give it in fixed quantities in batches."
Yin Hengxie nodded beside him, then sighed and said, "We will compensate Qinghen in the future."
Yin Jiuxiao had told him this morning to act well, talk less, and leave it to him. Yin Hengxie knew that these two people would never have any conflict because of this matter. He was happy in his heart, but now he had to pretend to be decent for the sake of face.
Bai Muchuan frowned.
Of course, his initial idea was to sign a long-term contract with the Yin family, so that he could be bound to take a commission from the Yin family's income for a long time, but Yin Jiuxiao was obviously unwilling to do so.
For him, this endless way of doing things would result in too much loss. He was already very reluctant to give just one red round wheat. By the end of the two groups' conversation, he was obviously a little angry.
"When I took this red round wheat, there was some movement, and I took a lot of risks. Lin Qinghen has always been perceptive, so it is impossible for him not to notice it. Maybe he has already discovered that it was me. If he noticed any clues, what is there to discuss about this matter?" He stood up suddenly, "I advise you not to be too greedy, don't think I don't know what you are thinking.
In terms of the ability of the Haihun City Chamber of Commerce, the benefits of taking this red round wheat alone are much better than a radiant lotus. It is very expensive to keep this thing. In the whole Beizhou, except for me and Lin Qinghen, you can't find such a good buyer. "
Seeing that he was getting upset, Zhou Xian quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, Jiuxiao, we can discuss anything."
Then he exchanged glances with Bai Muchuan.
This is indeed the truth. Ruiguang Fulian’s healing ability is not the best among the heavenly ranks, but it is good in terms of omnipotence and gentleness.
This spiritual plant was brought out for a specific purpose. If it doesn't work now, it will be meaningless.
For Bai Muchuan, how many yellow-grade pills he got from the Yin family was not the point at the moment. He didn't want to lose the big picture for the sake of this matter. After a long confrontation, the two of them finally gave in.
However, before reaching a cooperation, Yin Jiuxiao had one more request.
"I don't want outsiders to hear about the Ruiguang Lotus before I refine it into a pill and take it. This will not only be detrimental to the Yin family, but also cause complications," he said, "Can you do this?"
"Of course," Bai Muchuan replied, "Young Master Yin, don't worry."
After he finished speaking, he added, "After Jiuxiao takes the medicine, he must explain this matter to Qinghen. After all, they are husband and wife. Although I have to hide it from him, it is also a helpless move. I believe he can understand."
Then he heard Yin Jiuxiao sneer.
"When I recover, why should I explain to him?"
Bai Muchuan was stunned, and the smile on his face could hardly be concealed. The unhappiness he had felt earlier due to the haggling by Yin Jiuxiao was almost gone in an instant.
In his opinion, Yin Jiuxiao was a bit conceited. Not to mention whether this lotus could cure his strange disease, even if it could, he would not be a threat after wasting so much time in cultivation. It was just that he was too obsessed and was blinded by one thing.
However, that night during the negotiations, Yin Jiuxiao, who had the final say, happily gave the Ruiguang Floating Lotus to his wife.
By the way, he also tried to curry favor by saying that he had acted very hard today and fooled everyone, and he wanted rewards in various ways.
Lin Qinghen was in a good mood tonight, so naturally Yin Jiuxiao could have whatever he wanted.
After he got the spiritual plant, he stared at the system screen in mid-air. He saw a bracket appear on the interface with the words "Half Completed" written on it, and he knew that it was done.
With the special medicinal base, it is not a big problem to distribute red round wheat.
Moreover, without the assistance of bees, crystals and butterflies, the quality and quantity of their output would inevitably be far behind. This is the reason why you should always compare goods.
For things like this, Lin Qinghen had originally planned to use them as bargaining chips to promote and share them on a large scale after he had other more important things. His master's formation couldn't be set up all the time, and there was no point in being on guard all the time.
This is just an opportunity. But after thinking it over, Lin Qinghen still feels that this deal is a bit of a loss, so he has to think long-term and get something back from the other party to avoid losses.
"I think it won't be long before the Haihun City Chamber of Commerce comes looking for me," Lin Qinghen murmured, "The best is yet to come."
He is waiting.
After the deal was done, they did not tell anyone about the Ruiguang Floating Lotus incident, but other things were enough to show that something was different.
The Yin family's pills were soon placed on the counter of Haihun City. Although the first batch was not in large quantity, it was enough to create momentum. They sold the same pills at a lower price than Lin Qinghen.
In addition to this, there are also a large number of four-star hemostatic powder. Although the quality is not as good as Lin Qinghen's, nor as good as the Tear City Alchemist Association, but the price is really low, there will always be someone to pay for it.
But how come Haihun City Pharmacy has these things?
Merchants who come to buy pills can't control this, but those who are interested will feel that something is wrong. People in the City of Tears say all kinds of things. Lin Qinghen did not cooperate with the other party, so where did this thing come from?
Bai Muchuan had been observing the situation at Lin Qinghen's place, and by the way, he had also spread a lot of true and false information, making the scene even more chaotic.
The reality seemed to be what he wished.
In the past few days, he first saw Mu Jiu with a serious face going back and forth from Diemeng several times, and also stayed in Yin's house for a long time. When he came out, he deliberately avoided people, appearing a bit sneaky.
There is also the lingering sound.
She also went to the Yin family, but she was filled with uncontrollable anger when she entered and left.
The most obvious one is Lin Qinghen.
Originally, he would return to the Yin family no matter how late it was, but now he has not been back for three consecutive days. He and his chief alchemist Lin Yunsi also stayed in Diemeng. The change in the relationship between him and the Yin family seems self-evident.
So at this time, Haihun City sent a visiting card to Diemeng again, and Lin Qinghen finally did not refuse it outright.
That afternoon, Bai Muchuan and Zhou Xian finally met him properly.
Lin Qinghen didn't beat around the bush. As soon as they came in, he looked at the man with a gloomy face and asked, "Is that the Ruiguang Floating Lotus that you gave to Yin Jiuxiao? He gave you those things in exchange, right?"
Bai Muchuan immediately denied it, his tone and expression were exaggerated, and he was playing dumb in a way that everyone could see: "What Ruiguang Floating Lotus?"
"Stop pretending," Lin Qinghen snorted coldly, "Yin Jiuxiao must find Mu Jiu if he wants to refine the elixir. Mu Jiu is an old fox who wants to have his cake and eat it too. He dares not offend the Yin family, nor does he dare to offend me. He told me everything after refining the elixir."
Zhou Xian could actually refine it, but he made up an excuse that he was recently injured and was afraid of being disappointed in the refining process, so the Yin family had no choice but to go to Mu Jiu.
In their impression, President Mu is a man who changes his attitude according to the situation and is also a force that can be utilized in the City of Tears. It would be best for him to do this.
"Master Lin has misunderstood. Maybe the so-called Ruiguang Floating Lotus was found by the Yin family themselves?" Bai Muchuan continued to argue, "Don't let this little thing ruin your relationship."
"Hurt the relationship?" Lin Qinghen sneered, "Yin Jiuxiao stole my things to exchange for benefits with you, and kept it secret from me from beginning to end. I am still afraid of hurting the relationship at this time?!"
He seemed to be getting angrier and angrier as he spoke. He suddenly stood up and swept the teacup on the table. The cup smashed to the ground with a "bang". Lin Qinghen's face approached, and Bai Muchuan couldn't help but be startled. Obviously, both of them were useless people with low spiritual power, but when they were really angry, their arrogant attitude was very similar, which made people unable to help but keep silent.
"Heh, I heard that Yin Jiuxiao got the elixir and is getting better. Even Wei Lin has gone back. The pride of the Yin family is recovering. It's a great thing. But if it weren't for me, how could Yin Jiuxiao be where he is today? You're really destroying the bridge after crossing it!" Lin Qinghen said angrily, "Do you still want to hide it? Do you think I don't know anything? You'd better make it clear. What Haihun City wants has always been in my hands. What else can the Yin family give you?"
He then moved closer, his tone becoming heavier: "So, Vice President Bai, you'd better explain it to me clearly."
Lin Qinghen's tough look was so strong that even Bai Muchuan couldn't help but become serious.
Having said that, his plan was completely successful, so there was naturally no need to hide it.
"Since it was Young Master Lin who discovered it himself, it doesn't count as a breach of contract on my part," he shook his head, looking very helpless, "To be honest, the Ruiguang Floating Lotus was originally intended to be given to you, but I don't know who leaked the news and let the Yin family know about it in advance.
I really didn’t know. They didn’t tell you at all. They didn’t know that the red round wheat was not obtained through legitimate means. I thought that between you and your husband, it would be the same no matter who you find, but I didn’t expect it…”
He sighed deeply, as if he couldn't bear to continue.
The more Lin Qinghen listened, the uglier his expression became. He sneered and said to himself, "I knew I couldn't trust anyone."
When Bai Muchuan saw him like this, he took the opportunity to speak again.
"Master Lin, you are too kind-hearted, but in Beizhou, people have to think for themselves," he said patiently, "You see, the Tear City Alchemist Association is a fence-sitter. Even after your wolf descendants got involved, they couldn't help but be biased. You are now estranged from the Yin family. When Yin Jiuxiao really recovers, how can you live a good life? If they imprison you and use you, don't blame me for not reminding you."
Lin Qinghen frowned: "What do you mean?"
"If Young Master Lin came to us today just to ask questions, then we should be prepared," Bai Muchuan said. "We should find more allies and backers, don't you think?"
Lin Qinghen: "You people in Haihun City are not good people either."
Bai Muchuan was not angry at all after being scolded. He smiled and said, "But our Haihun City is indeed stronger than the current Yin family in terms of strength. If anything happens, we will definitely be able to help. Besides, if you don't want this helper, wouldn't that push us to the Yin family?
We are really not like Jiang Fushen. We came to Tear City not for competition but for cooperation. Young Master Lin can rest assured."
As he spoke, he took a new cup from the side, poured another cup of hot tea for Lin Qinghen and handed it to him. Then he watched Lin Qinghen hesitate for a long time before finally taking it.
"What do you want?"
"Master Lin, don't be impatient. Listen to me..."
Bai Muchuan stayed in Diemeng from the afternoon to the evening. When he left, Lin Qinghen personally saw him off. The two seemed to be having a good conversation, with no trace of opposition from before.
However, after sending the person away, Lin Qinghen's expression changed. He went all the way back to his room in Diemeng, and when he opened the door, he saw Yin Jiuxiao.
If he didn't go back to the Yin family for three days, he would not be able to sleep in the same bed for three days. Yin Jiuxiao couldn't stand this.
He is used to it now. He cannot fall asleep without holding someone and smelling the scent of Lin Qinghen. Acting is acting, and sleeping in different beds is not okay. If Lin Qinghen doesn't come back, he can come by himself.
"How did the talk go?" he asked.
"Very good, we have waited until they finally reveal their true colors. I finally know what Bai Muchuan is up to," Lin Qinghen said, and then lazily found a place to rest on Yin Jiuxiao's body, "Tsk, acting is so tiring, I have never done anything like this before, I have to improve next time."
When Lin Qinghen was in the Lin family before, he always pretended to be stupid and wooden. This was relatively easy. He had never done something like this before.
"What's wrong?"
"First of all, you can't break the cup for dramatic effect," Lin Qinghen curled his lips, "The fragments scratched my foot."
The wound was not deep, but it was a bit painful and he almost couldn't hold it together.
Yin Jiuxiao hurried to see.
"It's all right. It's okay."
Lin Qinghen curled her toes and changed her position in his arms. She looked lazy and didn't have any of the momentum she had before.
The author has something to say: ??Qinghen: I got it. I won’t be so exaggerated next time.
