It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 22 Demon Cult Witch?Just a contractor!

Zhao Ci really didn't bluff Gu Xiangzhu.

He does have selfish motives.

And it's all selfish.

No consideration for other people at all.

He took a deep breath: "Does the mother and concubine know about the child's opening of the house?"

"Ok?"

Gu Xiangzhu suddenly understood: "You mean, you want to create your own alchemy workshop, and then use the list of the tribute alchemy conference as a merit?"

Zhao Ci nodded solemnly: "It's better to know a child better than a mother, and it's better for a mother to understand a child!"

Gu Xiangzhu thought for a while, smiled and said: "Actually, you don't have to worry about opening a mansion. As long as you get this order for your mother, even if you are still an idle prince, you can still live a happy life. Although according to the royal rules, you can't give You have too many resources, but as long as you go out and join the clan independently, I will be able to arrange cultivation resources for you through other channels."

"So the mother-in-law..."

Zhao Ci became extremely angry: "I will drag you down for the rest of my life and be treated as a waste? If this is the case, what will I do if I open a government?"

Gu Xiangzhu: "..."

This is really a bit of a headache.

But then I thought about it, and it was indeed the case.

If Zhao Ci really had no spirit at all, he would not have been able to refine this kind of medicinal liquid in isolation for seven days.

But why?
How did the useless loser who was willing to be mediocre become what he is now? Where is the turning point?

"Concubine, do you still remember that you asked me to ask Grand Scholar Kan to help convince my father to let me join the vassal?"

Zhao Ci smiled miserably: "I didn't know the reason at the time, I just thought that Academician Kan just didn't want his granddaughter to marry me. But then, on the second day after the marriage was set, their grandfather and grandson came to the door. Only then did I realize that they were worried about getting into the muddy waters of competition for reserves.

But I clearly have no desire for the throne. I just want to do something for my parents and perform some filial piety, but they look down upon me in every possible way.

As for Zhao Yong, the child used to be ignorant and would always join in to let them have fun. Later, he suddenly came to his senses and made up his mind not to interact with them again.

Unexpectedly, he actually came to the door.

I just want to do my own thing, and I'm not doing anything sinister or ambitious. Why should I be targeted by them?
Mother concubine!

I don't know what your situation is, but Miss Sunset Tang hinted to me that our situation in Linge was not good.

The only way we can avoid being targeted is for us to keep a low profile. You act like a harmless noble concubine, and I act like a dandy and weak prince.

Yes!
I've been a piece of trash for so many years, and I don't care if I continue to suck.

But what about you, mother-in-law? You have founded so many industries on your own, raising income and reducing expenditure for the royal family.

Is the mother-in-law willing to suffer such grievances?

Anyway, I don’t want to. They don’t want to see us do anything, so what do I want to do?
Whoever bullies us, I will kill him! "

Gu Xiangzhu: "..."

If Zhao Ci said this two years ago, she would not be touched at all.

But now... it's not a lie that she has repeatedly encountered obstacles in the Danfang business.

She dreamed of recruiting a group of high-level alchemists, but the three major alchemy families were just as agreed upon. Not only them, but also the idle high-level alchemists were indifferent to her.Even trying to recruit someone from the royal family was met with obstacles in every possible way.

The most outrageous thing is that she once tried to arrange for a relatively innocent senior alchemist from the Demon Cult.

As a result... people died!

In the past, she wanted to ease the conflict by letting Zhao Ci surrender.

But now, the vassal domain has failed and a government has been established.

Not only will the conflicts not be alleviated, they are destined to intensify.

In this case, it would be better for Zhao Ci to be more high-profile. If one day he can reach the level of the Fourth Prince, his property in Linge will definitely be much more stable.

Even if he fails and enters the clan's mansion to work as a civil servant, it will completely end his hope of competing for the throne, and the pressure he is worried about will be eliminated.

Thinking about it carefully, it would only be uncomfortable for me for three years at most. If Zhao Ci can live up to his expectations, there may even be some hope of a comeback.

Even Zhao Ci's current character gave her hope.

This kid's sanity, which had been in a state of confusion for many years, seemed to have been cleared up by Kan Tianji's grandfather and grandson.

With such a spirit, it would be a pity not to join our religion.

It’s just this liquid...

Gu Xiangzhu's tone was gentle: "Ci'er can think so, and I am very happy for my mother. But I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get anything by yourself."

"This……"

Zhao Ci looked a little tangled and thought for a while before he said: "Concubine, do you think this is okay? The child will continue to develop the medicinal solution. As long as it can be mass-produced, a pill workshop will be established in the name of the child, and then the concubine will send her subordinates to prepare the medicine." Fang formed an alliance with Haier, nominally headed by Haier, and participated in the Gongdan Conference.

At that time, the merits will be attributed to the child, and the income from the alchemist and the alchemy society will be handled by the mother and concubine, as long as the child is given dividends.

The child only wants this part of the merit, as long as he can recruit government officials, and he will still have to rely on his mother and concubine to manage the alchemy workshop in the future. "

He was not so narcissistic as to think that Gu Xiangzhu had given up all his family wealth.It is impossible for him to swallow all the money, he will be satisfied if he can eat a little oil and water.

But he has to take full credit for his merits.

The most important thing is the wine refining process, which he must keep in his own hands.

"This……"

Gu Xiangzhu was a little hesitant instinctively, because it sounded like he was working for Zhao Ci, and he was working for Zhao Ci with a team of alchemists who had worked hard to conquer.

But after hearing it later, she felt that was not the case.

After all, the alchemists are all his own. As long as they are under his control, it will only be a matter of time before he gets the art of refining wine.

Sooner or later, this industry will be yours, unless the emperor intervenes.

But even if the emperor wants to interfere, he must have a suitable reason, otherwise he will have to die.

Think for a moment.

She finally nodded: "That's great! You can just do it Ci'er, but it's too hard for you to study the liquid alone. I have a group of craftsmen under my mother, so why not send them to help you make suggestions."

Industrial espionage, right?

"No need, concubine!"

Zhao Ci quickly shook his head: "The child likes to be alone when he is thinking about things. If there are other people around, the child will feel uncomfortable and his head will die!"

"so……"

Gu Xiangzhu glanced at Zhao Ci thoughtfully, smiled and stood up: "In this case, I won't disturb you as a mother. But don't work too hard. If you exhaust your body, it will be considered a success. It’s not worth the loss.”

This demon sect girl is quite caring about people.

"Mother, I will send you off!"

Zhao Ci also stood up. On the way, he suddenly thought of something: "By the way, concubine, Zhao Yong is so arrogant today, saying that we are determined not to get the Zhuge family's alchemy furnace. Are you sure we can win?"

Gu Xiangzhu hesitated slightly: "Try your best, do you have any ideas?"

Even though she said this, she really didn't know what to do.

This morning, she went to see Zhuge's mother-in-law in Linge, hoping to place an order in advance.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhuge was doing Tai Chi with her from the beginning to the end.

Not a single word of nonsense was spoken.

Nothing promised was given.

Zhao Ci nodded: "My child has a solution that is not a solution."

Gu Xiangzhu was a little surprised: "Oh? Tell me..."

“I don’t know where to start right now!”

Zhao Ci scratched his head in embarrassment: "Does the concubine have someone who is responsible for collecting and disseminating intelligence? If so, can you lend it to the child? You can take the child with you when bidding, maybe you can Works wonders.”

Gu Xiangzhu thought for a moment and took out a jade pendant from his arms: "Take this, someone will come to find you tomorrow morning. Just tell him what you want!"

"Ok!"

Zhao Ci nodded, put Gu Xiangzhu on the carriage, and watched her until the carriage disappeared around the corner of the street.

Gee!

He stretched comfortably.

This wave is great.

Although there is no guarantee of [-]% success.

But he was already [-]% sure.

Still thinking about taking advantage of my craftsmanship?
Why do you think it's so beautiful?

Even if I agree, Zhao Huan will not agree.

Demonic witch?

He's just a wage earner... Oh no, he's just a contractor!
As for what's next...

You have to find a way to improve the quality of the elixir, otherwise you won't be able to get orders that are too high quality.

This batch of pill furnaces must be captured.

I've got my eye on it.

It's mine!

Zhao Ci rubbed the jade pendant in his hand: "Brother Zhao Yong, don't blame me for being too dirty."

Zhao Yong's background is too strong.

I'm afraid it won't work if I don't use some unconventional means.
