Chapter 26: Clever Speech
Although Sun Zhang chose to avoid him, Li Fan would not give up so easily.
Judging from the fact that he couldn't help but comfort Su Changyu that day, this person is at least not a wicked person. The reason why he had a cold face before was probably because he didn't want to have too much involvement with the mortals in the Immortal Land.
Compared to strangers, Li Fan prefers to deal with people he knows some details about.
So Li Fan went back and came to Tianbao Tower again.
"Why are you back again, kid? Are you looking for death?" The big man in black at the door looked at Li Fan warily and said viciously.
Li Fan smiled slightly: "I came to do business with your Tianbao Tower. You guys didn't even bother to talk and you're trying to drive me away. Is this how you treat guests at Tianbao Tower?"
Li Fan deliberately opened his voice, attracting the attention of people around him.
"You..." The big man suddenly became furious and was about to come up and beat someone up, but was stopped by the person next to him.
After going back to ask for instructions, the big man led Li Fan in with a somewhat resentful look on his face.
We sat down in a guest room and a maid brought us a cup of tea.
Li Fan took a sip slowly. As the tea entered his stomach, he felt a warm current flowing from his stomach to his whole body.
In just a moment, Li Fan felt as if he had been basking in the sun for half an hour on a winter day. His whole body was warm and even a little hot.
"Good tea!" Li Fan couldn't help but praise.
"The Dayu Flame Dragon grows in the submarine craters around Dayu Island. There are only a dozen of them. Now with the destruction of Dayu Island, the Dayu Flame Dragon has temporarily become a rare species." A man walked in with a smile on his face and spoke slowly. It was Sun Zhang.
"That's all thanks to you, Elder Sun." Li Fan didn't hesitate and drank the rest of the tea.
After Li Fan put down the teacup, Sun Zhang narrowed his eyes and slowly asked, "The matter of Dali is over, and there should be no entanglement between you and me. Why did you find me again now?"
Sun Zhang's tone was very impolite, and there was a murderous intent in his eyes, as if he would kill Li Fan if Li Fan's answer did not satisfy him.
Li Fan didn't care about Sun Zhang's questioning, but replied with a smile: "Elder Sun, you misunderstood. I am indeed here to discuss a business deal."
"Business? You?" Sun Zhang was stunned at first, then he looked at Li Fan with a sneer.
Li Fan's expression remained unchanged, he smiled but said nothing.
Seeing this, Sun Zhang gradually became serious: "What business?"
"I wonder if Tianbao Pavilion is interested in the quota for the sea-going fleet." Li Fan said slowly.
"Every time the fleet goes out to sea, not to mention the treasures that can be salvaged occasionally, the glass fish and other marine specialties alone are enough to make a lot of money. It is impossible to say that we in Tianbao Tower are not interested."
"But the fleet quota is firmly controlled by Manager Qian. Not to mention our Tianbao Tower, even for Manager Zhao, it would be extremely difficult to occupy one more. As a newcomer, what ability do you have to dare to take it?" Sun Zhang stared at Li Fan, as if he wanted to see something from his face.
"If I were to meet Manager Zhao, I would have my own way to convince him." Li Fan said confidently.
Seeing Li Fan so confident, Sun Zhang was a little undecided for a moment.
"Then let him meet Manager Zhao. It's not a difficult task. If that fails, chop him up and throw him into the sea to feed the fish." At this moment, a somewhat lazy voice came from outside the house.
Li Fan's eyes focused, and he saw a woman in light yellow clothes and a veil walking in.
The woman sounded like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but her curvy figure exuded a mature and attractive aura.
"Hello, boss." When Sun Zhang saw the woman in yellow, he immediately stood up and greeted her respectfully.
"Then I would like to thank the shopkeeper first." Li Fan said with a normal expression and bowed.
"You seem quite confident and don't seem like you're bragging." Sitting opposite Li Fan, the woman in yellow tilted her head and looked at Li Fan with some curiosity.
"I always keep my promises and stick to my words." Li Fan said frankly.
The woman in yellow laughed softly.
"If this is accomplished, my Tianbao Tower will have to take the corresponding benefits."
"According to the rules of the island, you can keep 30% of the harvest from each trip to sea. I don't want a penny of it. I will give half to Manager Zhao and the other half to your Tianbao Tower." Li Fan nodded in agreement, saying something shocking.
The woman in yellow was stunned.
She looked at Li Fan carefully again and said, "That's strange. If that's the case, what do you want after going through so much trouble?"
"I just want a spot in the Spirit Purification Pool that comes once every three years." Li Fan said frankly.
"Huh..." The woman was really shocked at this time. She looked at Li Fan several times, as if to confirm whether she had heard it wrong.
Li Fan looked at her with a firm gaze.
"Hahahaha..." The woman in yellow actually laughed out loud, as if she had heard some particularly funny joke.
"Come on, uncle, you are already old, and you still want to learn how to cultivate immortality from others?" After laughing for a long while, she stopped with some difficulty, and after saying something reluctantly, she couldn't help laughing again.
Sun Zhang looked at Li Fan with an expression full of disbelief.
Li Fan just looked at the woman in yellow quietly without saying anything.
The laughter of the woman in yellow became quieter and quieter.
"Ha ha……"
Finally she gave a dry laugh and returned to normal awkwardly.
"I only seek immortality and will not regret even if I die." Li Fan said lightly.
The woman in yellow remained silent for a long time.
"Okay, I'll take it." She finally made the decision. "I'll send someone to notify you when the date is set."
"Then it's settled. I live in house number seven on the sixth column outside the city. You can find me there." Li Fan bowed and turned to leave.
The only people left in the room were the woman in yellow and Sun Zhang.
After a long silence, Sun Zhang could not help but say, "Boss, the quota for the Body Purification Spirit Pool..."
“Although there is fierce competition for places in the Purifying Spirit Pool on the island every year, we at Tianbao Tower are also capable of competing. Moreover, if he can really secure a sea-going fleet, in just about five years, the profits brought by the fleet will barely be enough to cover one place. It’s a sure win.” The woman in yellow disagreed.
"Indeed..." She frowned and looked in the direction where Li Fan left, muttering to herself.
"What?" Sun Zhang couldn't help but ask.
"That man's eyes look so scary..." The woman in yellow patted her chest, seeming to be still a little frightened.
Sun Zhang was stunned.
…
On the way back, Li Fan stopped at a pharmacy and bought the "Xuanhuang Qingxin Mantra" and corresponding medicinal materials.
Even if everything goes well, it will take another two years before the Purifying Spirit Pool can be opened.
Such a long time cannot be wasted.
It would be better to practice the "Xuanhuang Qingxin Mantra" first to see the effect. Who knows, Li Fan may have amazing talent and be able to get rid of all the miasma in his body in less than two years?
In the next few days, Li Fan stayed at home to practice, waiting to meet Manager Zhao.
Who would have thought that before he even met Manager Zhao, Li Fan heard a piece of news that shocked him.
Su Changyu is dead.
