Chapter 97

Chapter 96 One person takes 70%, tomorrow to fish for dragon fish

Everyone has seen spirit stones.

Neither Hu Bugui nor Zhao Ziyue had ever seen so many spirit stones before.

Zhao Ziyue said excitedly, “I can get new fishing gear now.”

Hu Bugui rolled his eyes: “Old Zhao, is that all you’ve got?”

Zhao Ziyue asked, quite unconvinced, “What are you planning to do?”

Hu Bugui smiled smugly: “I plan to raise spirit beasts myself and provide them with food and water every day, so that I can get a steady supply of their droppings every day.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing and Zhao Ziyue’s lips twitched violently.

While in some ways this does demonstrate business acumen.

But it always feels… a bit dirty.

Hu Bugui happily put all the spirit stones into his storage bag, and then said, “Since today’s profits are so high, we can set up a stall at [Forging Peak] every day!”

Xu Changqing shook his head and said, “Today is because of the duel between Chu Qiu and Lan Tian, so the foot traffic is extremely high. Normally, we wouldn’t earn this much.”

Hu Bugui blinked: “As long as there’s a profit to be made, that’s fine.”

Xu Changqing continued, “Not only that, but when those competitors see that we’ve made a lot of money, they’ll definitely try every means to imitate us, and they might even lower the price.”

Zhao Ziyue nodded slightly: “Old Xu is right, this is indeed a big problem.”

“What should we do then?” Hu Bugui frowned.

Xu Changqing glanced at the two of them and chuckled, “Simple, we just need to earn the franchise fees.”

“Franchise fee?” The two looked completely bewildered.

Xu Changqing explained, “Now, we have top-quality watermelons, top-quality spirit rice wine, barbecue seasoning that must be paired with barbecue, and even cheaper spirit beast meat.”

These have all been tested by the market and customers.

Therefore, by using barbecue seasoning and various resources as bait to attract franchisees, all competitors can be turned into suckers.

This was the first time Zhao Ziyue and Hu Bugui had heard of this idea.

Therefore, I was deeply moved and couldn’t calm down for a long time after hearing it.

In their minds, all that matters is making money.

Even a little less wouldn’t matter.

But Xu Changqing was different; he no longer cared about such a small amount of profit.

According to his description, as long as someone joins, it’s equivalent to generating revenue.

The more people there are, the more you earn.

Ultimately, like a snowball rolling downhill, the profits will only grow larger and larger.

Zhao Ziyue hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped: “But what if these people change their minds…”

Xu Changqing had already thought of a solution: “It’s very simple, everyone who joins must sign a spirit talisman contract with us, that will do.”

“Hiss!” Hu Bugui couldn’t help but gasp.

The two of them felt as if they had been subjected to a dimensional reduction attack.

Selling barbecue, Ling rice wine, and watermelons—these things are indeed profitable.

But I have to admit, it was extremely hard work.

Moreover, you can’t have this kind of return every day.

Nowadays, as long as Xu Changqing’s “franchise theory” is implemented.

They don’t need to go out and set up stalls to obtain spirit stones continuously.

“Amazing!” Zhao Ziyue couldn’t help but give a thumbs up, completely convinced and feeling that he had wasted his time studying.

Xu Changqing squinted, thinking to himself, “Once the news gets out, I can sell wine and open a restaurant in the scattered cultivator market, and even cooperate with [Yaoxiang Pavilion].”

work to earn a living?

Working is out of the question!

I will never work for someone else in my life!

The three of them then had a good chat.

One is the follow-up plan.

The two are the profits and losses afterward.

Hu Bugui said seriously, “Old Xu, this time you have to take the lion’s share, otherwise I… I’ll withdraw.”

Zhao Ziyue chimed in, “That’s right!”

Xu Changqing didn’t stand on ceremony this time: “Fine, from now on I’ll take 70%!”

Even close brothers keep clear accounts.

Moreover, the reason why so many spirit stones were distributed earlier was because…

Isn’t the point to lure these two people onto the pirate ship?

Zhao Ziyue was the first to state his position: “I haven’t made any significant contribution, so I only need 10%.”

Hu Bugui thought for a moment and said, “Then… I’ll take the remaining 20%.”

Xu Changqing provided Lingmi wine and watermelon.

Hu Bugui provides spirit beast meat.

As for… Zhao Ziyue?

Xu Changqing, of course, wouldn’t let this opportunity pass, and asked with a smile, “Old Zhao, how’s your [Little Cloud Rain Technique]?”

Zhao Ziyue replied, “It’s alright, we’re currently on the third floor.”

Xu Changqing pointed to his own Grade 2 spirit field and said, “Then I’ll have to rely on you from now on.”

Before Zhao Ziyue could speak, Hu Bugui asked in confusion, “Don’t you have Bai Ling’er to help you?”

Xu Changqing shrugged: “Ever since the Qiu Feng incident, Bai Ling’er has been kept in check by her sister and is not allowed to come here at all.”

Furthermore, there has been no further news of Zhang Xue since that exchange.

Therefore, we have no choice but to find someone else to bring rain.

Coincidentally, Zhao Ziyue is a formal disciple of the [Imperial Water Pavilion], and has even reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

The key is that this guy has a lot of time.

Instead of fishing, come here and let it rain.

We’ve known each other for so long, we’re practically family now.

“Okay.” Zhao Ziyue did not refuse, and even immediately walked towards the spirit field.

Having received so many spirit stones, he still felt indebted to Xu Changqing.

Now, finally, we can make even the slightest bit of compensation.

As soon as he stood on the edge of the field, he immediately waved his hand.

Soon, a cloud of water vapor gathered above the spirit field.

Judging from its color, it was even darker than Zhang Xue.

Splash!

Soon, a dense rain of spiritual energy began to fall.

The spiritual plants, nourished by the rain, stretched out one after another.

My dear reader, there’s more to reading—even more exciting content awaits!

Even the air here feels much fresher.

Xu Changqing saw this and smiled with satisfaction.

At this moment, Hu Bugui asked, “Old Xu, with your talent in planting, one acre of Grade 2 spirit land is simply not enough. What realm are you at now, and how long will it take to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage?”

Xu Changqing replied, “I’ve already reached the late stage of Qi Refining. As for breaking through… that depends on luck.”

Hu Bugui pondered for a moment, “Then it should be soon. By then, the yield of two acres of Grade 2 spirit fields will at least double.”

At that time, the spirit beasts he raised were also able to produce feces steadily.

Xu Changqing’s heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly asked, “What’s the situation with that Black Dragon Pool?”

Hu Bugui came to his senses and said, “It’s a deep pool hidden underground. We don’t know exactly how deep it is, but we can be sure that there are dragon fish and fish demons inside.”

Xu Changqing nodded: “I recently brewed a type of yellow rice wine that is even better than spirit rice wine. If this wine can really be used as bait to catch dragonfish, then we can give it a try.”

Hu Bugui’s eyes lit up: “Great!”

He already had a strong attachment to arowanas.

Although I didn’t succeed last time, I did see it.

If you catch a dragonfish, you can become an apprentice of that Golden Core stage fisherman.

Not long after, Zhao Ziyue finished casting the [Minor Cloud Rain Technique].

When he returned, Hu Bugui told him about what had happened at Black Dragon Pool.

Zhao Ziyue himself is an ultimate fishing enthusiast.

Upon hearing that there was new bait…

They even go fishing for dragonfish.

They immediately became excited, their eyes sparkling.

The three hit it off immediately and decided to give it a try tomorrow!
