Chapter 126: Banquet, Housewarming
"As for that prescription, you don't need to report the sales situation to me. I said that the prescription is your betrothal gift. I only provided a prescription. Your mother is in charge of the production, sales and after-sales. You get the same percentage of the profit as your mother gives you. Just know it in your mind." Ning Xuan had a lot of things to do and had no time to entertain people outside of her plan.
Chen Nan felt a little disappointed when he heard Ning Xuan say this. He knew that his mother wanted to meet Ning Xuan, but he had already tried his best and could not say anything more.
So Chen Nan agreed obediently and stepped back.
Chen Nan had just met the two orcs. The orcs sent by the association were indeed different from the ones he had seen before. It was obvious that the two had been carefully educated since childhood. They were young, good-looking, and likable to look at. This made Chen Nan feel full of a sense of crisis.
On the second day, Ning Xuan packed some personal belongings and went to the villa given to her by the Controller Protection Association.
Ning Xuan quickly arrived at her destination by flying car. The villa was located in the northern valley of Qingluan Mountain. Qingluan Mountain had very beautiful natural scenery. There were huge spiritual veins hidden under the ground of this mountain area, which made the air in the entire area full of rich natural energy.
Ning Xuan stepped out of the flying car's cabin, and a refreshing scent of pine came to her nose. Ning Xuan smelled the elegant fragrance and looked around.
On the stone walls on all sides, there are pine trees of various shapes and sizes, which are very interesting to see from afar. The three-hectare courtyard in front of you is perfectly embedded in the natural canyon. Thousand-year-old vines hang from the cliffs on the east side, and lavender mist is rising from the mountain stream on the west side, making the courtyard look like a fairy cave.
Mountain villas, especially those in Qingluan Mountain, are not something you can buy just by having money.
When Ning Xuan arrived at the bronze gate outside the courtyard, she saw that the entire yard was covered by a hemispherical flowing barrier. This was the yard's self-defense system, controlled by the house's smart butler.
Ning Xuan stood still in front of the gate. Ten seconds later, a mechanical female voice sounded, "Iris verification passed. Dear master, welcome to the mountain villa No. 17 in Qingluan Mountain."
After the mechanical female voice sounded, the seven or eight meter high bronze door slowly opened. Ning Xuan noticed that the surface of the door was flowing with the luster of liquid metal. This material was strong and tough. Even if it was hit hard, it could return to its original state after rippling like the surface of water.
The design of the courtyard was very grand, with winding corridors, pavilions and towers, which made Ning Xuan a little mesmerized. She had only seen this style of architecture on the Seven Star Mountain before.
The intelligent housekeeper "17" appeared in the form of a holographic projection. She was in the form of a phoenix. She showed pictures one after another and introduced the various areas of the courtyard to Ning Xuan.
The central courtyard is the living area used for rest, and around it are functional areas such as the martial arts field, training room, alchemy room, conference hall, etc.
Ning Xuan introduced Yan Fuzhen to the smart housekeeper, and asked the smart housekeeper to introduce the situation to Yan Fuzhen. She then went to the living area at the back. She wanted to choose a house that suited her taste.
Ning Xuan pushed open the carved sandalwood door at the deepest part, and she smelled a subtle fragrance that made her feel calm and peaceful. This scent seemed to be the scent of the soul-nourishing wood.
The Soul-Nourishing Tree is a rarer soul-nourishing tree than the Mind-Concentrating Tree. Ning Xuan discovered that there was actually a Soul-Nourishing Tree growing in the main courtyard. Although it was only a small sapling half a meter tall, it would take hundreds of years for it to grow into a medicinal herb. However, even if it could not play its true value as a Soul-Nourishing Tree for the time being, it could still calm the mind and spirit.
It is still a bit of a luxury to grow it as an ornamental plant in the yard.
Ning Xuan only tidied up the courtyard where she lived and placed her usual items. The arrangement and organization of other areas were left to Yan Fuzhen. Smart Butler 17 was mainly responsible for the management of the defense system. It was responsible for the access control of the main gate and various areas. The access control of each area required Ning Xuan's authorization to open. Ning Xuan's courtyard and alchemy room were not authorized to anyone, which meant that anyone who wanted to enter her courtyard and alchemy room could only be brought in by her in person, otherwise no one could approach.
This defense system not only has strict access control, but also has very strong defense capabilities. Even with Yan Fuzhen's strength, he cannot break through the defense in a short period of time. Moreover, this defense system is progressive, and the main courtyard is the seventh floor, so the safety factor is very high.
This made Ning Xuan feel very safe.
Ning Xuan suddenly remembered that among the properties that Ying Yaoshi gave her, there seemed to be a Lanshan Villa. She had never been there and wondered how the scenery there compared to here.
Moving into a new house is also a happy event, and the two new little slaves are also quite pleasing to the eye. So, in the evening, Ning Xuan decided to hold a banquet in the new house. However, when she was about to hold the banquet, she found that she didn't seem to have any guests she wanted to invite.
Ning Xuan has been concentrating on cultivation and has no time to make friends. Thinking about it now, her past life was indeed quite boring.
Forget it, if she has no friends, she can just enjoy herself. Anyway, in this yard, she is the ruler and everyone has to cater to her.
As dusk fell, the hall used for receiving guests was brightly lit, and the jade lamps in the four corners of the courtyard outside were lit one by one. There were seats in the hall, and at the top was an exquisite rosewood carved chair.
Ning Xuan sat in the main seat at the top, with four tables on each side. Yan Fuzhen and a few others sat on one side, while Lin Mo, Chen Nan, Lan Xin and Jiuwei sat on the other side.
Ning Xuan had informed Lin Mo and the others in advance and asked them to prepare the show.
Jiuwei volunteered to be the first to go on stage. She was wearing a dance costume with fluttering ribbons and had an expectant look on her face.
Smart Butler 17 temporarily acted as a lighting technician and projector, projecting a light blue light curtain suspended in the air, projecting the stage very clearly.
The waiter placed the last dish, candied green plums, on the table. Yan Fuzhen stood up and bowed to Ning Xuan, "Master, the dishes are ready."
"Let's get started." Ning Xuan took a look at the performance program that Yan Fuzhen had just handed her. What she didn't expect was that even Yan Fuzhen had signed up for a sword dance program.
As soon as Ning Xuan finished speaking, half of the lights in the center of the stage in the hall went out. The lights that were originally as bright as daylight dimmed in an instant. At this time, red silk fell like a waterfall of blood, and the young man stepped out of the red silk barefoot. His snow-white skin was seductive and dazzling against the red background, and his smooth and delicate skin under his clothes rose and fell with his breathing. As his movements quickened, the crystal sweat beads dripping from his forehead rolled down his collarbone into the half-open lapels.
When he raised his hand, the silver bell on his wrist rang softly, and when he turned around, colorful ribbons fluttered. His amber eyes were full of charm, and they formed hooks in the swaying candlelight.
