Spring has arrived again, the season for harvesting mountain produce. However, there are no wild vegetables left in the Dragon Spirit Tower this season, so we can only sell other things, such as nuts, wood ear fungus, and mushrooms, which are easy to store and don't need any explanation.
When it comes to making money, Shang Lin is now a hands-off manager. The reason is simple: his studies are too demanding. Even if Xing Tian doesn't cut back on teaching him foreign languages, it only slows things down a little.
Xing Tian said, "Spring is here, and it's time for us to make money this year. If I don't hurry up and teach you, I'm afraid I won't be able to find the time later. If I try to take care of both, it will distract me, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything well. I also have to take care of my parents."
What could Shang Lin say? He could only cooperate. Of course, there were some things he still had to do himself, such as doing business with Manager Duan, or when he needed an ID card.
Although Old Man Chai is still under Ji Xiaoyao's control, once his body is healed and Ji Xiaoyao leaves, many things will become unclear, and...
Old Man Chai is getting old, and Shang Lin will have to part ways with him someday. To avoid future trouble, it's best to let Shang Lin, the sect leader, handle things.
While Xing Tian, She Jinxing, and Hu Tangdi were making money by tinkering with the items inside the Dragon Spirit Pagoda, Qiu Niang started working on ancient-style clothing. Since she couldn't open a shop for the time being, she treated it as posting her work on the sect leader's account.
As for painting, Qiu Niang's interest is waning, and compared to ancient-style beauties, the latter is more eye-catching. I wonder if Hu Tangdi will be able to show his face as the model?
Of course, it's fine not to show your face, as long as you have a good figure and can pull off the elegance and beauty of traditional Chinese clothing. However, Qiu Niang still discussed this matter with everyone to avoid doing something useless.
Shang Lin had no objection to this, but felt that they had many ways to make money, and it was a real pity that they were limited by a small ID card.
However, there was nothing that could be done about it. She Jinxing said that there was no place in the county to issue ID cards to demons, so Shang Lin could only wait until he got into high school and went to bigger and farther places to look for one.
That's right, we need to find a place to issue ID cards to good demons. It can't be like a human police station, where anyone can find it easily, right? Otherwise, things would get chaotic.
So Shang Lin said to Qiu Niang, "You guys handle it. I need to study even harder now, and make sure nothing goes wrong with the preliminary exam, so we don't end up stuck in this small county town."
Xing Tian hurriedly said, "The sect leader will definitely have no problem with this. Since the sect leader is not involved in this matter, let's discuss it so as not to delay his study time."
The others quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes."
In fact, Shang Lin is very interested in mathematics, physics, and chemistry because they are helpful for his alchemy, array formation, and so on. He thinks that learning more mathematics, physics, and chemistry in the future will be of even greater benefit to him.
There's a saying in the human world: "The end of science is metaphysics," but isn't there science within metaphysics as well?
While everyone in the Dragon Spirit Tower was diligently performing their duties, Xing Tianjia's company held its first-quarter shareholders' meeting. During the meeting, his parents were targeted and isolated by members of the family, including but not limited to executives leaving, falsifying accounts, and a broken capital chain...
This almost caused Xing Tian's mother to miscarry. Or rather, it could be said that she would have miscarried if Huang Ying hadn't protected her. Huang Li rushed back to report the news, fearing that Huang Ying wouldn't be able to handle the situation alone.
When Xing Tian heard this, he was about to rush home, but She Jinxing hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Don't be impulsive. Wait for the sect leader to come home after school and listen to his opinion. In your current soul form, what problem can you solve by going back?"
Xing Tian's eyes were red, as if he could turn into a demon at any moment. "They've gone too far! Where were they when my parents were working so hard to build their business? But as soon as my parents' business became big and successful, they all came swarming around demanding money and goods. My parents gave them everything they could, and now they're even worse. They want to take over our family business and almost caused my mother to miscarry. They..."
"Calm down." The deity floated in front of Xing Tian, his voice deep and steady. "You need to stay calm, especially in times like these. Otherwise, how can you help your parents deal with the problem? You don't need to wait for Shang Lin. You can do many things even in your soul form, such as causing trouble in secret. Do what those who have done wrong are most afraid of. With the enemy in the open and me in the shadows, what are you worried about? As for your family business, your father was able to start from scratch, so he naturally has the ability to face crises. Right now, he's probably just overwhelmed by the troubles caused by your relatives and has to protect your mother. As long as you stall those troublemaking relatives and give him time to deal with the crisis, I believe things will be resolved soon."
The deity's words gradually calmed Xing Tian down. That's right, how could he not have thought of that? His parents had been in business for so many years, they naturally had the ability to resolve crises. As long as they were given time to deal with those who were causing trouble and holding them back, the problem would definitely be solved.
Xing Tian immediately bowed deeply to the deity, saying, "Thank you, deity. I was rash."
The deity smiled and said, "No need to thank me. It's just that those involved are often confused while bystanders see things clearly."
After calming down, Xing Tian handed over their recent money-making business to Qiu Niang, and then left with Huang Li. Shang Lin didn't realize that someone was missing when he got home from school; it was only when Shen Jun took the initiative to tell him that he found out.
Shang Lin immediately sent She Jinxing over to check on things, just in case Xing Tianli was unable to handle the situation and there was no one to help. As for Huang Ying and Huang Li, it was better for them to stay with the pregnant woman, since older pregnant women are basically considered high-risk.
She Jinxing wasn't unwilling to follow Shang Lin's arrangements, but rather, "I don't know how many days I'll be gone? What will happen to my family? My senior sisters need to earn money, and who will protect the sect leader?"
Shang Lin pointed to the tower spirit, "For supernatural events, there's the God Lord; for ordinary events, there's General Ji. Besides, Qiu Niang and Hu Tangdi won't be away from home for too long, so you don't need to worry at all."
"...Alright." The sect leader really has everything arranged perfectly. However, if the sect leader is in danger, he, as the servant, will sense it immediately and appear in time.
After She Jin left, Shang Lin prepared to wash up and go to bed. Countdown signs were hung in the classroom, and he was infected by the tense learning atmosphere, working even harder, which naturally made him even more tired.
So much so that he couldn't even find time for medicinal baths or alchemy; whenever he had a spare moment, he just wanted to sleep. Indeed, becoming the top scholar wasn't something that could be achieved easily.
But what kind of business does Xing Tianjia run? Could they benefit from it too? It's just that the distance is too far, making it inconvenient to operate right now. I wonder if their Yuntai Sect's financial manager, while handling family affairs, will also seek some benefits for them?
