Chapter 30 An Unexpected Joy (Please read on, please vote!)
As the large group assembled, the situation escalated further due to Wang Yu's nonsensical ramblings.
But he wasn't worried. With profits at stake, he figured that as long as he gave these "hyenas" an excuse, they'd be skinned alive, if not killed.
Ideally, it would be best if Steward Xu handled this matter himself, but after unexpectedly discovering the relationship between Su Qingshan and the Xu family, he only had this one option left.
The Demonic Path! The Demonic Path!
The longer Wang Yu stayed, the more comfortable he felt!
Hundreds of elites from the Enforcement Hall were mobilized. There weren't many people out at night to begin with, and seeing this spectacle, they wished they could bury their heads in the ground. They didn't dare to take another look.
On the way, Zhuo Shouqing said to Wang Yu.
"You say you signed unfair terms, where's the contract? Show it to me."
"Here it is—"
Wang Yu handed over his copy, and after Zhuo Shouqing looked at it, he exclaimed in surprise, "Such generous terms, and you call that an unfair contract? Are you trying to deceive me?"
"No, no, Lord Zhuo. Think about it carefully. Does our Reverse Spirit Blood Sect have such a contract? It's all an illusion. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been deceived and tricked."
Zhuo Shouqing frowned in thought. That makes sense!
Moreover, the time limit is only one year. Combined with Wang Yu's previous confession, it gives him the impression that he will be exploited to death within a year. At the same time, the written statement that no training will be given will make this intention even stronger!
It looks like a consumable item.
"Very well, very well! How dare they commit such an outrageous act under my rule! Their property must be confiscated!"
"Wang Yu, right? Don't worry, you and your brothers will be treated fairly and feel the warmth of the sect."
Wang Yu's vision went black, but his empty arm was indeed warm enough. He kept flattering Zhuo Shouqing, making him feel comfortable all over.
Soon, Xu's Dan Shop came into view.
"Surround them!"
Zhuo Shouqing waved his hand, and the cultivators of the Law Enforcement Hall stepped forward, completely surrounding the pill shop. Wang Yu's eyes darted around, and he took the initiative to step forward and shout.
"Listen up, you people inside, you've been caught red-handed."
"Hand over all public property obtained through exploitation and embezzlement, or your souls will be extracted and refined, turning you into demons for eternity, never to be reincarnated, and never to be reborn!"
After a roar, Wang Yu ran back to Zhuo Shouqing's side and fawned over him.
"Sir, please."
Yo—
"Not bad."
Zhuo Shouqing was very satisfied with Wang Yu's behavior, feeling a sense of satisfaction and comfort. He coughed lightly, releasing the pressure of the Foundation Establishment stage, which enveloped the entire Xu Clan Pill Shop.
in.
Old Zhu, who was working on the accounts late into the night on the third floor, sighed and looked at his trembling grandson, saying helplessly.
"Since things have come to this, we can only talk. I hope I can leave you a way out."
"Grandpa, I don't want to die! Your grandson doesn't want to die!"
Zhu Xiaosun, dressed in white pajamas, scrambled to his grandfather's leg, tears streaming down his face. He had planned to leave the sect in a few days to avoid trouble, but who would have thought that things would happen so quickly and suddenly, leaving him no time to react.
"Little Sun, let go."
Seeing his grandfather's determined gaze, Zhu Xiaosun lowered his head and followed Zhu Lao out of Xu's alchemy shop. Outside, soldiers stood in armor, their presence imposing.
The somber atmosphere instantly overwhelmed Zhu Xiaosun, who collapsed to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly to Zhuo Shouqing.
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me..."
“He did it all, my grandfather did it, it has nothing to do with me.”
"well---"
Seeing his grandson's behavior, Old Zhu was deeply disappointed. He took out ten storage bags from his bosom and handed them all to Zhuo Shouqing, remaining silent.
Under the cover of darkness, Wang Yu hid in the shadows, concealed by the Night Concealment Spell, and his opponent did not notice him.
Zhuo Shouqing was completely bewildered. They gave in so easily? In the past, when their homes were raided, the worst outcome was always a fight to the death. He had never seen anyone so obedient.
That's strange.
He checked the spirit stones in the storage bag with his divine sense and found a total of 96,000 low-grade spirit stones, which is equivalent to 9,600 mid-grade spirit stones. This was a very generous sum for him.
The conversion ratio between spirit stones has remained relatively stable.
The exchange rate for low-grade spirit stones is tenfold, and the exchange rate for mid-grade spirit stones is one hundredfold. As for top-grade spirit stones, they are treasures in themselves and are not used as regular currency.
Therefore, there are only three conversion ratios: 1000:100:1.
Just as Zhu was about to take all the blame, Zhuo Shouqing said, "Is that all? You're trying to fob me off like a beggar. I heard you embezzled 300,000 spirit stones."
Old Zhu's knees buckled, and he knelt on the ground, no longer the light-footed man he had been moments before, his lips trembling.
How much...?
"Hey."
Zhuo Shouqing laughed. He liked tough guys. He raised his chin and his men swarmed into Xu's Pill Shop like fish, taking everything they could carry and sealing the door.
A group of men escorted the Zhu family grandfather and grandson back to the law enforcement hall.
He turned around and threw a stack of contracts into Wang Yu's arms. Not only were his three contracts included, but also those of Zhou Tao and the others. Wang Yu's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected this benefit.
"What happened tonight is none of your business."
"The foundation building behind Xu's alchemy shop will be handled by the Enforcement Hall. You and your brothers should behave yourselves. Are you willing to work for me from now on?"
Wang Yu quickly clasped his hands in response.
"Your subordinates will be willing to die for Lord Zhuo, even at the cost of their lives."
"You have such a sweet tongue. Here, this is a reward for you."
In a flash, a small storage bag landed in Wang Yu's hand, containing not only a thousand spirit stones but also a set of clothing and a token for a disciple of the Enforcement Hall.
This was a completely unexpected surprise!
Zhuo Shouqing left after speaking, without mentioning when he should report to the Enforcement Hall. Wang Yu had a vague guess in his mind.
Zhuo Shouqing saw through tonight's events, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he praised him highly, saying that sending him to infiltrate various shops was like sending him to become an informant...
"That's fine too."
After a long night of hard work, Wang Yu leisurely returned to his residence and went to sleep. With his cultivation level, two hours of sleep would be enough.
The next morning, they arrived at Xu's Pill Shop.
They had originally come to wait for Zhou Tao and the other two, but unexpectedly, they arrived even earlier than Wang Yu. After a little thought, they understood why.
Old Zhu's payment was abnormally high, two hundred a month? Who would dare to think that? Only Wang Yu didn't know the market price before and even thought it was too little.
With such high-paying jobs, they wanted to work hard to avoid being fired, so they all came earlier and earlier, and started making a ruckus.
Hey, over here.
Zhou Tao, Huang Kai, and Luo Pinghu were still wondering about the seal on the entrance of the alchemy shop when they heard Wang Yu's shout and immediately came over.
Zhou Tao had the highest cultivation level, reaching the eighth level of Qi Refining, and his alchemy skills were even more impressive. They had met once yesterday, and among the three, he seemed to be the one to take the lead, so he was the one to speak.
"Master Wang, do you know about the Xu family's alchemy shop?"
"It's a long story—"
Wang Yu shook his head and sighed, then pointed to a nearby shop and said, "Why don't we talk while we eat? You haven't had breakfast yet, have you?"
"That's fine..."
