Chapter 1028: Profiteers Appear
It was daybreak, and Ye Xiaoman was still immersed in the charm of the lights in the big and small buildings, not knowing what year it was, when she suddenly heard someone knocking loudly at the door.
The knock on the door was like a stone thrown into the quiet water, and the scenery of Chepan Village around him was like the water surface was broken, turning back into the original mansion.
The young man lying next to her, Zhu Chuideng, kissed Ye Xiaoman on the forehead with a smile and disappeared.
"No——" Ye Xiaoman cried out in pain.
Zhu Chuideng promised, "Let's play again next time."
Ye Xiaoman discovered that Zhu Chuideng had unknowingly learned the art of playing hard to get.
"I want to see who disturbed my sweet dream!"
Ye Xiaoman put on her clothes and walked out angrily.
When he opened the door, he saw someone from Huantian Chamber of Commerce coming to deliver the materials that Zhu Chuideng had ordered yesterday.
But the leader was Qing Yuanhu.
Not only Ye Xiaoman, but also Zhu Chuideng were deeply surprised by Qing Yuanhu's arrival.
Although Ye Xiaoman was surprised, she changed her appearance and was about to pretend not to know him, but she didn't expect Qing Yuanhu's eyes to sweep across Zhu Chuideng and stick to Ye Xiaoman's face.
"Fairy Ye, Master Ghost, long time no see."
Ye Xiaoman was very depressed. She and Zhu Chuideng had only been here for a few days. How on earth had Qing Yuanhu found them? The only thing she could think of was that he might have accidentally leaked the secret when buying the house from the Huantian Chamber of Commerce.
Qing Yuanhu put on a typical profiteer's smile and said, "Would you two like to invite me in for a seat?"
Zhu Chuideng looked at the group of mortals behind Qing Yuanhu who were carrying wood and waiting for inspection. He was like an ordinary househusband, leading people to move things to the backyard. Before leaving, he touched Ye Xiaoman's shoulder.
"Pour the guest a cup of tea."
The queen's aura made Qing Yuanhu's teeth itch.
Ye Xiaoman crossed her arms and squinted at the flirtatious man in front of her, whose clothes shone with gold. "Why are you here?"
Qing Yuanhu was completely annoyed: "My father fought so hard for you for so many years, and the first thing you said when you saw me was to ask me why I was here?"
Qing Yuanhu hated the situation even more when he recalled the hardships he had endured along the way.
He first rushed to the demon world, and when he finally arrived, he found that Ye Xiaoman and Zhu Chuideng had escaped. He could only ask the branches across the six realms to carefully monitor the whereabouts of the Ghost Lord. The Ghost Lord was not a human, and it was easier for others to notice him than Ye Xiaoman.
Zhu Chuideng drove away the hanged ghost, causing all the ghosts in Yanchouzhou to flee collectively. The Yanchouzhou branch immediately reported this abnormal situation to Qing Yuanhu, who decided to rush over to take a look.
The teleportation array between the various branches of the Huantian Chamber of Commerce is fast and convenient, allowing them to appear in front of Ye Xiaoman in the shortest time possible.
Qing Yuanhu was so angry that he pushed Ye Xiaoman against the door frame. Ye Xiaoman squinted her eyes and looked at Qing Yuanhu's palm pressing on the side of her face. According to her strength, if she wanted to hide from Qing Yuanhu now, he would not be able to push her against the wall, so she deliberately let him do it.
She is so humble, how can Qing Yuanhu not be angry?
She pointed at the dark circles under Qing Yuanhu's eyes that appeared due to fatigue and said, "I thought it was caused by your romantic life."
Qing Yuanhu saw that Ye Xiaoman's dark circles were no smaller than those of a workaholic like him. None of the men had let her go, even though she looked like she had kidney deficiency.
"Tsk, you think I'm you."
Qing Yuanhu was acting so servilely that Ye Xiaoman was in no mood to say anything softly to him.
"What do you want to do? Just tell me."
After a brief break in his defense, Qing Yuanhu returned to his original mean style.
"I, the Guild Master, am here to inform you that the several hundred million spirit stones you won as a prize for participating in the Popular Cultivator Competition are only valid for ten years. Once that time is up, all of them will be cleared and all the spirit stones will become the property of this Chamber of Commerce."
Ye Xiaoman became anxious when she heard this, "How can it be cleared?"
After Ye Xiaoman was resurrected this time, she had already planned to go to the Huantian Chamber of Commerce to claim her reward, but she was hindered by various matters.
Qing Yuanhu spread his hands helplessly: "That's the rule."
Ye Xiaoman: "When will the ten-year period come?"
Qing Yuanhu: "Two months later."
Ye Xiaoman: "That's good."
Qing Yuanhu: "I advise you to take action today. Transferring such a large amount of assets to your name requires a lot of procedures, and it will take at least one or two months to complete."
Ye Xiaoman couldn't sit still any longer: "Then let's go quickly."
"Wait here for me. I'll go tell Zhu Chuideng."
Ye Xiaoman pushed Qing Yuanhu's arm away and ran away.
After listening to Ye Xiaoman's story, Zhu Chuideng knew that this was Qing Yuanhu's trick to lure Ye Xiaoman. "I'll go with you."
Qing Yuanhu chased Ye Xiaoman from behind and said, "I'm afraid you can't leave."
Behind Qing Yuanhu, several bricklayers walked in.
"When repairing a house, it is best for the homeowner to leave someone nearby to supervise."
Qing Yuanhu touched his chin cunningly and said, "Buy materials and get a free mason service. Buy one, get one free. I hope you will be satisfied with our Chamber of Commerce's high-quality service."
Zhu Chuideng: "..."
Before Zhu Chuideng could say anything against it, Qing Yuanhu and Ye Xiaoman had already walked away arm in arm.
The branch of Huantian Chamber of Commerce in Yanchouzhou is located in the bustling city center. On the crowded streets, Qing Yuanhu suddenly held Ye Xiaoman's hand.
He had clearly acted recklessly, but after holding Ye Xiaoman's hand, his palms were sweating from nervousness.
Ye Xiaoman glanced at Qing Yuanhu lightly through the slits of her eyes.
Qing Yuanhu's forehead was covered with sweat, but he smiled and said to Ye Xiaoman, "I was worried that you would get lost in the crowd, so I was kind enough to lead you."
Ye Xiaoman didn't even bother to talk to him.
The closer Ye Xiaoman got to the branch entrance, the more furtive she became, like someone who had won hundreds of millions in lottery and was going to claim the prize. She always felt that everyone was staring at her, waiting for her to go out and rob her of her money.
Ye Xiaoman asked Qing Yuanhu solemnly, "Should I disguise myself again?"
She analyzed it seriously. If she collected the bonuses from all the vests by herself, wouldn't the staff who helped her with the procedures know that all the vests were the same person?
Not only that, the Huantian Chamber of Commerce might even give her only one award on the grounds that it violates the regulations.
Therefore, the best way is to have multiple people claim the prize.
Ye Xiaoman immediately changed her attitude and spoke to Qing Yuanhu warmly: "Yuanhu."
Qing Yuanhu was in high spirits when he saw Ye Xiaoman's flattering smile. He knew exactly what she was planning. "Hmm?"
Ye Xiaoman said, "Isn't it easy for your Huantian Chamber of Commerce to teleport from one place to another? I'll create a few clones, and you can use your authority to open a teleportation array for me and send my clones to the entrances of various branches."
"I used a different identity to receive the award."
Qing Yuanhu raised his voice: "Oh, so you and the other four are the same person?"
Ye Xiaoman covered his mouth and said, "Stop pretending to be surprised. Will you help me?"
