Dragon's Origin

Chapter 218: The Female Owner's Dilemma (Part 1)

The female owner can actually turn defeat into victory? Wang Sheng became interested. However, what Wang Sheng found strange was that since the female owner could be responsible for such a large operation, why would she still have to go through the Worry-Free City Lord to sell favors and contact him, instead of coming to his door directly?

"She is not the one in control of Baoqing Yu Tang now." In response, the old butler explained clearly in one sentence: "In fact, her current situation is not good. It's just that the Great Owner of Baoqing Yu Tang is willing to give her a chance, so he contacted you through the King, otherwise, she cannot go out."

The alchemic sect ruins in the Thousand Absolute Land, divine pills, hehe, Wang Sheng understood with just a slight thought. The masked female owner's situation is probably worse than ordinary, otherwise, how could this kind of death-seeking work fall into her hands?

Who can freely come and go in the Thousand Absolute Land now? Besides Wang Sheng, there is no one else. Baoqing Yu Tang has a map of the alchemic sect ruins, but they can't find a way in, so they can only look for Wang Sheng. But the new shopkeeper offended Wang Sheng to death, how could Wang Sheng lead the way for them?

That is, the female owner still has a little friendship with Wang Sheng, so these people immediately pushed the female owner out, wanting to rely on her relationship with Wang Sheng to get Wang Sheng to nod and help. It is estimated that this is her last bit of value.

If Wang Sheng is willing, then she still has a glimmer of opportunity to help Baoqing Yu Tang explore that ruin once. If Wang Sheng is unwilling, I am afraid that the best outcome for the female owner is to be imprisoned until death.

The internal strife of large families is really cruel. No matter how much credit the female owner has made for Baoqing Yu Tang before, just because she is a woman, she has no chance at all and is directly suppressed. Wang Sheng feels sorry for her. She has worked hard outside for so many years, and just when she made some progress and achievements, she was not only robbed of the fruits of her labor, but also pushed to this situation.

Wang Sheng can imagine that if she can successfully explore the ruins this time and find the divine pill that Baoqing Yu Tang needs, then maybe her situation will be a little better. If she fails, I am afraid there will be no chance in the future.

The female owner probably understands this, so even if there is only a glimmer of hope, she will try to seize it. Unfortunately, she doesn't even have the chance to meet Wang Sheng now, and she has to strive through the Great Owner of Baoqing Yu Tang to get her this chance to die.

Should he help? Wang Sheng began to ponder. Divine pills, Wang Sheng doesn't care. With the Nine Character Proverb, Wang Sheng can ensure that his body will not fall into that situation. Besides, it is uncertain whether there are any divine pills. If there really is such a powerful thing, would the Lin family have let it go back then? They would have snatched it long ago!

Baoqing Yu Tang is probably just trying, if it succeeds, it will be of great benefit to them. If it fails, there will be no loss. They may even take this opportunity to see if Wang Sheng might help the female owner for some reason, and then they can use the female owner to exploit Wang Sheng multiple times in the future.

Good calculation, worthy of being one of the two great merchant families.

As for the safety of the female owner, it is estimated that it has never been within their consideration. If she lives, they will use her. If she dies, it will eliminate an internal competitor. There is no need to ask, this task must have been "volunteered" by the female owner.

"Is it very dangerous?" Wang Sheng didn't make a decision, just asked.

"Inside the Thousand Absolute Land." The old butler smiled bitterly: "You know better than me, right!"

"A confidante?" Old Daoist Lingxu listened for a long time and figured it out, jokingly asking: "Or a big-breasted beauty?"

"I don't know if she is a beauty, I haven't seen her." This time it was Wang Sheng's turn to smile bitterly. He really hasn't seen what the female owner looks like, they used to meet masked.

To be honest, Wang Sheng really doesn't want to be used now. Wang Sheng doesn't like Baoqing Yu Tang's approach very much. Moreover, Wang Sheng's main goal now is the girl in the dream, Wang Sheng doesn't want to be distracted by some messy things. His friendship with the female owner is friendship, but it hasn't reached the point where Wang Sheng can go through fire and water for her.

"Forget it!" Wang Sheng expressed his intention to the old butler: "I'll rest for a while, and then go to the camp to cultivate for a period of time."

The old butler shrugged, indicating that he didn't care. Anyway, this is not the King's business, it's just passing a message. The message has been delivered, and the King has completed the entrustment and received the favor. As for whether Wang Sheng agrees or not, it has no impact on the King. It's a small matter, not worth mentioning.

This small episode did not affect the three people's interest in drinking, but instead made it more lively. They made noise until the sky was dark, and the old butler left contentedly with hiccups under the service of several uniformed experts.

As soon as the butler left, Lu Wenhou brought the beautiful Ling'er to the door. After not seeing each other for a few months, Lu Wenhou seemed to be more carefully maintained, and his skin was as delicate as the young Ling'er next to him.

I don't know if it was Wang Sheng's illusion, maybe Lu Wenhou's cultivation has improved again, so that his delicate face looks even more attractive, making people a little unable to stop at first glance. Knowing that he is a man, people can't help but mistake his gender. Fortunately, Wang Sheng silently recited many times that I am a straight man, and then moved his eyes away.

Lu Wenhou came to express his gratitude, and also had the same goal as the old butler, to solicit Wang Sheng's consent.

Even though Wang Sheng had already nodded to the old butler, Lu Wenhou would be the same without asking the result, but Lu Wenhou's feeling of personally coming to the door and attaching great importance to it made people feel like a spring breeze, unspeakably comfortable, and even nodding willingly. What's more, 100,000 gold coins had already been delivered to the door when Wang Sheng was away, this initiative and generosity gave people two words, comfortable.

Compared with Lu Wenhou, the new shopkeeper of Baoqing Yu Tang can simply be thrown into the trash. No wonder Baoqing Yu Tang dealt with him themselves, with that virtue, it would be strange if Baoqing Yu Tang's business didn't plummet.

The old Taoist had no friendship with Lu Wenhou, so he went back to his room to rest without coming out. Wang Sheng had to accompany Lu Wenhou for another drink alone. Fortunately, with the Bing Zi Jue(兵字诀: Soldier's incantation) and Zhe Zi Jue(者字诀: One of the nine secret incantations), he could easily force out the alcohol, so that he wouldn't get drunk. When he was drunk, Wang Sheng talked about Baoqing Yu Tang as if chatting.

"Baoqing Yu Tang is about to have big trouble." Speaking of competitors, even the stable Lu Wenhou now has a smile on his face: "In recent months, the newly appointed owner has made several stupid moves. The effect is not visible now, but in a few months, they will know how powerful it is."

"Greed?" Wang Sheng almost guessed the crux at once, and confirmed with a smile.

"That's right!" Lu Wenhou laughed and toasted Wang Sheng: "Greed. Always thinking about earning all the money in the world into their own hands, doing business on both sides, they will have time to cry in the future."
