Chapter 222: Greedy

"How can I not be interested in making money?"

Zhou Ziyao's orange peel face was immediately filled with smiles.

During this period, he purchased a lot of elixirs from Qin Shaochen and made a lot of money.

He had long regarded Qin Shaochen as a big business customer.

"What kind of business is it? Tell me about it?"

"It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go to the inner room to talk."

Qin Shaochen lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious.

Zhou Ziyao's eyes suddenly lit up and his spirits were greatly boosted.

"Good! Good! Since it's a big deal, this is how it should be."

Then, Qin Shaochen led Zhou Ziyao to a small room next to the hall.

He brewed tea again and began to discuss the big business.

When Qin Shaochen told Zhou Ziyao about his trip to Huainanzhou half-truthfully and half-falsely, Zhou Ziyao shook his head and immediately expressed doubt.

"As far as I know, your Qin family does have a few spiritualists who can make pills. But if you say that someone can make a second-grade spiritual pill, Zongdan, I will never believe it even if I die."

"You must be lying to me."

"What is your purpose? It's better to tell me directly."

"I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. It's not that easy to fool me..."

Qin Shaochen was a little helpless when he saw that Zhou Ziyao didn't believe it at all.

He had to take out the small box in his arms and slowly opened it in front of Zhou Ziyao.

The bean-sized, pure purple pill appeared in front of Zhou Ziyao.

With a "teng", Zhou Ziyao stood up suddenly.

In excitement, the teacup in front of him was knocked to the ground.

"Zongdan!"

"You really have Zongdan!"

Zhou Ziyao's voice suddenly became hoarse.

He picked up the box, looked at it carefully, and moved it under his nose and smelled it carefully.

His face was full of excitement and surprise.

"It's actually a top-grade elixir!"

"How did you get it, kid?"

Qin Shaochen took the box back calmly and put it back in his arms.

"Elder Zhou, this elixir is not for you."

"I took it out just to prove to you that our Qin family does have Zong Dan."

"Impossible, impossible!"

Zhou Ziyao was still in disbelief.

"The situation of your Qin family has been investigated clearly by Wanbaotang. It is absolutely impossible for anyone to refine Zong Dan."

Qin Shaochen was a little speechless.

It seems that Zong Dan has brought a great impact to Zhou Ziyao, which directly made Zhou Ziyao lose his rationality.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense with Zhou Ziyao, just sitting quietly, waiting for Zhou Ziyao to come back to his senses.

After a while, Zhou Ziyao really woke up.

He had seen the elixir with his own eyes, so how could it be fake.

He sat down slowly.

The expression on his face was a little complicated.

"It seems that the information collected by Wanbaotang is still not comprehensive enough."

"The old Qin family actually hides a great master."

"Could it be that the person from Qingxuan Sect sent another person back...?"

"Elder Zhou is really amazing. He actually guessed it right."

Qin Shaochen was very happy and nodded immediately.

Someone helped him think of a reason, so of course he had to go with the flow.

"However, this matter is the biggest secret of the old Qin family. Elder Zhou, please don't tell outsiders about it."

"Of course, I am not a talkative person." Zhou Ziyao nodded.

Qin Shaochen smiled with satisfaction.

"With Elder Zhou's guarantee, the junior is relieved."

After a pause, he said:

"Elder Zhou, since you have seen Zong Dan with your own eyes, you should believe that what I just said is true?"

Zhou Ziyao stroked his beard and nodded slightly.

"I believe it."

"And I agree to this deal."

"For the Zongdan, I am willing to accompany you to Huainan Province."

"But..."

He frowned when he said this.

"Huainan Province is at least tens of thousands of miles away from here. If we go there on horseback..."

Before he finished speaking, Qin Shaochen said:

"Of course I won't go there on horseback."

"On the day of departure, the senior from the Qin family will send a spiritualist with a flying spiritual weapon to meet us."

"Then, the three of us will set off together..."

Qin Shaochen made up a story half-truthfully.

After his deception, he quickly reached a preliminary agreement with Zhou Ziyao.

The two parties agreed that:

Zhou Ziyao would practice hard and strive to reach the peak of the late stage of the Great Martial Master within two years.

Then, the mysterious senior from the Qin family would give him a Zongdan.

After the successful promotion, Zhou Ziyao would fulfill his promise and personally escort Qin Shaochen to Huainan Province to help the senior from the Qin family do an important thing.

Zhou Ziyao can choose not to participate in the work, but he must protect Qin Shaochen throughout the process.

During the operation, Qin Shaochen will make all the decisions, and Zhou Ziyao must not violate orders at will...

Some of the terms of the agreement made Zhou Ziyao dissatisfied.

But Qin Shaochen insisted that those were the wishes of the Qin family's elders and could not be changed.

Zhou Ziyao had no choice but to accept it.

During the period, Zhou Ziyao also asked why the Qin family, which also had many great martial artists at the peak of the late stage, did not look for them.

Qin Shaochen patiently explained.

It turned out that the matter of going to Huainan Prefecture was a private matter of the Qin family's elders.

He didn't want to reveal the secret, so he bypassed the Qin family and entrusted the most trusted Qin Shaochen to handle it privately.

Zhou Ziyao suddenly realized it.

The two chatted for a few more words, and Zhou Ziyao couldn't stand sitting for a long time, so he stood up and said goodbye.

He said that he would go back to practice quickly, hoping to reach the peak of the late stage of the great martial artist as soon as possible.

Seeing that there was hope to get a Zong Dan, Zhou Ziyao was obviously quite excited.

In the past, I always thought that reaching the late stage of the great martial artist was the end of this life.

Unexpectedly, now there is an opportunity to go to the next level.

Reach the dream of the master level.

How can I not be excited!

Qin Shaochen naturally couldn't keep him any longer, nodded and said yes, and respectfully sent Elder Zhou to the door.

When the two parted, they were polite again.

Zhou Ziyao always liked to call Qin Shaochen "boy" before.

Now, after knowing for sure that there was actually a great master who could refine Zongdan standing behind Qin Shaochen, the way he addressed Qin Shaochen also changed.

He no longer called Qin Shaochen a kid, but affectionately called him "Shaochen".

This made Qin Shaochen feel uncomfortable for a while.

Seeing that Zhou Ziyao on the carriage had disappeared at the end of the road, Qin Shaochen, who was standing at the gate of the house, couldn't help but sigh:

It seems that Yuan Dongxing's estimate is right. As long as the Zongdan is shown, almost all the late-stage great martial artists will not be able to resist the temptation.

Even people like Zhou Ziyao who have a high status and profound cultivation will compromise immediately.

Looking back on the past, it was Zhou Ziyao who took out the best pills, which made Qin Shaochen envious and had to compromise.

Unexpectedly, the situation changed.

Today, it was finally Qin Shaochen's turn to take out the pills, which made Zhou Ziyao salivate.

Thinking of this, Qin Shaochen's mood suddenly improved a lot.
