Chapter 51
"I just gave you a chance, but it's gone now." Luo Yi cleared out the entire online store. "The online store is closed, so you can't buy pills online anymore. If you still want to buy them, you'll have to talk to the boss!"
“You know how it is to do business with the boss!” Luo Yi raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of sympathy in his eyes, but it instantly turned into schadenfreude.
"You complained it was too expensive at only 50,000 yuan, and you're robbing me? Wait until you meet the boss, and you'll realize how incredibly cheap and reasonable 50,000 yuan really is!"
Lu Fei still thought Luo Yi was continuing to bluff him and dismissed it: "It's right that you closed your store. It was too expensive. I believe everyone thinks the same way I do. The fact that sales have been consistently zero is the best proof, isn't it?"
"Luo Yi, I urge you to seriously reflect on this. Having thoughts of robbing people is... very wrong!"
"Reflect? Robbery?" Luo Yi's lips never left his mouth, perhaps he was laughing in anger at Lu Fei!
"Brother Lu Fei, if the price goes up tenfold or even a hundredfold someday, people will still be scrambling to buy it, believe it or not!"
Actually, Luo Yi was being subtle. Because the online store's pills weren't selling well, and Yan Yan's prices were extremely low, he only listed them at 50,000.
The beauty and skin-nourishing pill, the Anti-aging Pill, requires spiritual herbs that are over a thousand years old. Each herb needs to be carefully nurtured for nearly a thousand years. In addition, the spiritual energy is not as strong as before, and these spiritual herbs are naturally delicate and difficult to cultivate, so the quantity is very small.
So it's 50,000! That's not just a fair price, it's practically a loss-making sale!
Let's not even talk about the rich wives and daughters of today. Even the most basic skin care treatment costs tens of thousands of yuan, and it doesn't even last for a few days!
The Gu Yan Dan (a type of pill) from Ke Ling Ju Guan (a Taoist temple) has been improved and refined so that ordinary people can also take it. It not only beautifies and nourishes the skin, but also keeps ordinary people looking young for at least 30 years!
50,000 yuan for 30 years of youth!
You've made a fortune!
Unfortunately... nobody recognizes its value!
"Ten times, a hundred times! Really? We're brothers, don't scare your brother. Tell me the truth from the bottom of your heart, Li Xue'er... really became beautiful because of some kind of pill she ate!" Lu Fei could tell that although Luo Yi was smiling this time, his determined eyes could not lie.
Lu Fei knew all too well what Luo Yi's eyes were like—firm belief mixed with unwavering conviction!
Once, Luo saw a product and immediately said it would be a hit—that's the look in his eyes!
As it turns out, Luo's eye for fashion had been honed by spending so much time with the boss, and sure enough, that particular item was the hottest item.
Lu Fei realized that he might have really misjudged the situation; this pill might actually have miraculous effects and might not necessarily be a health supplement.
Luo Yi: "What, are you starting to believe it?"
“Xin, I was just ignorant. Tell me more about it,” Lu Fei urged.
"Since you believe me, it means you're teachable. Let me show you something else." Luo Yi beckoned to the book on the sofa, and the book flew up automatically and landed steadily in Luo Yi's hand.
Holy crap!
Holy crap!
"Holy crap!"
Lu Fei was completely dumbfounded when he saw this scene, and shouted "Holy crap!" three times in a row to express his shock.
Overwhelmed with shock, her body stiffened, and she stared at Luo Yi with a look of utter disbelief, stammering, "How...how did you do that?"
"Retrieving objects from a distance, isn't that cool?" Seeing Lu Fei's reaction, Luo Yi felt quite pleased with himself.
"Awesome!" Who wouldn't want superpowers? Lu Fei was no exception, and immediately changed his respectful address to Luo Yi, "Brother, this is so cool, how did you do that? Can you teach me?"
“There’s no way to teach that.” Luo Yi, a minor Qi Refining stage cultivator, couldn’t tell if Lu Fei had any spiritual roots. “Well… it depends on whether you have the opportunity.”
"Opportunity?" Lu Fei asked. "How so? Does it require an exam, or a certificate or something?"
Luo Yi: "........" As expected of a talent selected through examination!
"I can't take a look. I'm just a beginner. When my master comes, he can take a look at you."
"You mean the boss's wife will see this opportunity?" Lu Fei really wanted to meet the legendary boss's wife right away. "Our boss's wife has quite a wide range of business interests. The boss is so lucky to have found such a strong woman!"
"That's right, my master is amazing." In Luo Yi's mind, Ye Zi was more than just a strong woman, she was an unparalleled figure. After showing off, Luo Yi had a proud look on his face. "I'll take the annual report directly to the boss. The boss and my master should be here by now."
"Luo Yi, if you go directly to Yunmeng, can I come with you?" Lu Fei, envious of Luo Yi's display of skill, immediately followed. "I want to be the first to admire the proprietress's charm, and also, see if I have the opportunity to become her apprentice."
"Alright, let's go." After saying that, Luo Yi led Lu Fei to the Yunmeng Villa.
Yunmeng Villa
Luo Hengzhi brewed a pot of tea and poured some for Ye Zi: "We don't have all the ingredients here, so I ordered some food to be delivered."
Ye Zi nodded, curiously looking around the luxurious and spacious residence. The paintings on the walls were genuine works by a certain famous artist. Ye Zi had seen them online and they were very expensive!
Ye Zi picked up the gold ornament on the table and weighed it in her hand; it was pure gold!
“Little Ye Zi likes gold!” Luo Hengzhi walked to Ye Zi’s side. “How about we order a bigger gold ornament for our home?”
Ye Zi, who loved money, didn't care about the gold for a moment, but focused on another important issue that couldn't be ignored: "Our family?"
“Yes, our home. Once we get back to Lingju Temple, we’ll go back to our home at the foot of the mountain,” Luo Hengzhi said. “We haven’t had our wedding yet, but we’ll hold it when we get back.”
"Wedding!" But Ye Zi had never thought about having a wedding; the two of them had already made a Daoist couple contract, which was enough!
Ye Zi: "No need for a wedding, it's too much trouble!"
Ye Zi refused outright. Luo Hengzhi paused for a moment, then said, "It can be simplified!"
"No need, we already have a Daoist couple contract, there's no need for a wedding!" In Ye Zi's heart, the Daoist couple contract that True Person Yun Qing set for the two of them was the best wedding for them. The contract certified by heaven and earth was directly engraved on their souls, a Daoist couple for all eternity, which no one could erase.
After Ye Zi finished speaking, she released Xiao Mo, who then transformed back into the black soil and floated in mid-air. With the replenishment of spiritual energy from the two spiritual veins, the seeds that had just been planted quickly sprouted new buds.
Longbao and Huofeng saw Xiaomo and went over to her.
Fire Phoenix: "It's growing so fast, we'll be able to eat fruit tomorrow."
Ye Zi chuckled lightly: "Tomorrow won't work, but the day after tomorrow should be fine."
Longbao and Huofeng licked their little lips, discussing how to eat the fruit when it ripened.
Luo Hengzhi, standing behind, looked somewhat dejected; his wife didn't want to have a wedding with him!
Ye Zi turned around and saw Luo Hengzhi, who was unusually lost in thought, his eyelashes slightly lowered, making it impossible to see his emotions!
Ye Zi: "Luo Hengzhi?"
"Hmm?" Luo Hengzhi looked at Ye Zi, quickly concealing the unhappiness in her eyes.
"Dragon Treasure Fire Phoenix is hungry." Luo Hengzhi quickly composed herself, and Ye Zi didn't notice the change in her emotions.
"Okay, I'll urge them." Luo Hengzhi took her phone and went to the balcony.
"Boss, you've arrived." Luo Yi pushed open the gate, walked into the courtyard, and saw Luo Hengzhi making a phone call on the first-floor balcony. He and Lu Fei walked in together and waved to Luo Hengzhi.
Seeing Luo and Lu Fei walk in, Luo Hengzhi said into the phone, "Add two more portions and send them over as soon as possible."
Luo Yi: "Boss, you're ordering food? I should have just brought it over."
"Boss!" Lu Fei was very excited to see Luo Hengzhi able to stand up again. "Boss is becoming more and more handsome. It seems that your married life is very happy!"
Upon hearing about married life, Luo Hengzhi smiled faintly and told herself that whether or not there was a wedding was not important. The two of them were already recognized by heaven and earth as a Daoist couple, and cultivators valued the covenant between heaven and earth even more!
"Holy crap, the boss actually smiled at me! Luo Yi, am I seeing things?" Lu Fei pinched his arm. "Ouch, it's not a dream."
Luo Yi could tell at a glance that Luo Hengzhi was smiling bitterly. She really wanted to knock some sense into Lu Fei, who was dreaming, and tell him, "Which eye of yours saw the boss smiling at you?"
"Dragon and Fire Phoenix." Luo Yi walked into the living room and saw the two little ones. It had been a long time since she had seen them. Luo Yi ran over and hugged the two fluffy creatures. "Where is my master?"
"Brother Luo Yi, didn't you bring any good food?" Long Bao asked, noticing that Luo Yi's hands were empty.
Luo Yi: "I didn't know you had arrived. I thought I'd come over first to see what's in the refrigerator, and then go to the supermarket to shop."
"But we're all hungry." Fire Phoenix rubbed her belly.
"This is another new technology from the boss. This time it can even keep you company while you chat?" Lu Fei walked over and glanced at it, looking like he was used to it.
Luo Yi glanced at Lu Fei, not knowing whether to say Lu Fei was calm or stupid. He wasn't nearsighted, so what was wrong with his eyesight!
Luo Yi's disdain for Lu Fei at this moment was a complete forgetting that she had the same reaction when she first met Long Bao.
Luo Yi ignored Lu Fei and coaxed Long Bao and Huo Feng, saying, "The food is coming soon. Just wait a little longer and you'll be able to eat."
Luo Yi looked around the room and didn't see his master Ye Zi. He asked Luo Hengzhi, "Hey, boss, where's my master? Why haven't I seen him?"
Luo Hengzhi was looking at the report that Luo Yi had brought: "In the backyard."
"I'm going to see my master," Luo Yi said, getting up and heading to the backyard.
“Boss.” Lu Fei walked up to Luo Hengzhi.
“Speak,” Luo Hengzhi replied.
"I heard from Luo Yi that Li Xue'er is your nephew's wife?" Lu Fei's original intention was to complain about Luo Yi and let Luo Yi just fool him for fun.
Luo Hengzhi was taken aback for a moment when he heard about his nephew's wife, but he quickly nodded and said, "You could say that."
Lu Fei was genuinely surprised this time: "Really? I thought Luo Yi was just teasing me. How could you have a 22-year-old nephew?!"
Luo Hengzhi didn't answer, but asked, "Is Li Xueer filming?"
"Yes, the filming tomorrow morning." Lu Fei remembered Luo Yi saying that Luo Hengzhi was going to see Li Xue'er, "Boss, are you going?"
Luo Hengzhi: "Okay, let's make the arrangements."
Lu Fei was surprised that Luo Hengzhi was really going to see Li Xueer. It seems that this 22-year-old nephew must be a blood relative!
Wait a minute, the eldest son doesn't have an older brother, and his only younger brother isn't...
"Boss, why did your nephew choose to date a celebrity?" Lu Fei actually wanted to ask his boss who this nephew was, but he was too embarrassed to ask directly.
Luo Hengzhi knew immediately what Lu Fei wanted to find out, and glanced at him, saying, "You've got a lot of questions today."
"Oh, yes, I saw the boss today and wanted to talk to him more." Lu Fei changed to a more pressing question, "I'm just curious how Li Xue'er suddenly became so beautiful, what cosmetics she uses, and I'd like to buy some for my wife."
Upon hearing this, Luo Hengzhi realized that a client had arrived, so he put down the report he was holding.
"Huh?" Lu Fei saw his boss looking at him with the same serious gaze one would give a customer, and he panicked a little!
"It depends on how much you want. If you want a lot, there's a discount," Luo Hengzhi asked.
Lu Fei: "Huh????"
"No, boss, you're joking. When did your business expand into cosmetics? I didn't even know!"
"More or less, I know now," Luo Hengzhi said. "What Li Xueer uses... our current unit price is..."
Luo Hengzhi paused, thinking about what price would be appropriate. Ye Zi's previous pricing was definitely low, no need to ask.
Lu Fei still didn't understand how, in the blink of an eye, he, an employee, had become his boss's client!
In the past, it was great to make money off other people by negotiating business with the boss!
But now, he's on the opposite side of his boss, who wants to make money off him, and that doesn't feel good!
"588,000 per piece."
