Zhang Chu bid farewell to Shang Xuan Yue, and with the hot pot, returned to Jinling, his own small courtyard.
On this day, Zhang Chu notified Shangguan Qingxue, Song Minjun, as well as Ye Lei, Lu Hongyu, and so on, telling them that he had returned.
Of course, Night Diem and Bai Yan, who had been acting as Zhang Chu’s bodyguards, always followed Zhang Chu.
In the evening, everyone got together and had a slight meal to learn something about each other.
Ye Lei first opened her mouth, “Boss, you weren’t here, our little shop has been closed for two months, and we haven’t made a cent.”
Then, Ye Lei hemmed and hawed, “I also ate more than four thousand yuan of meat buns and milk tea, you reimburse me.”
Eating four thousand or so yuan in two months wasn’t much.
But Zhang Chu looked odd, “Didn’t you sell any talismans?”
Zhang Chu remembered that he taught Ye Lei to draw talismans ah.
Ye Lei looked helpless, “Ever since our China was covered by the Evil Warding Talisman, it’s not haunted at all, no one needs to buy talismans.”
“Besides, you are not in Jinling, who will come to our shop to tell fortunes.”
Well, this matter, it was justifiable.
So Zhang Chu said, “Alright, I’ll reimburse you.”
“Thank you boss!”Ye Lei was very happy.
At this time, Zhang Chu looked at Lv Hongyu again, “Disciple, how is your alchemy going? Have the herbs all been identified?”
Lv Hongyu hurriedly nodded, “Almost there!”
If you want to learn alchemy, but you have to learn to identify the herbs and recognise the various materials, in these two months, Lv Hongyu had worked extremely hard, although he could not say that he recognised all the herbs, he already knew some of the common herbs used in alchemy in terms of their properties, and even the way of concocting them.
Zhang Chu was very happy, “Alright, I’ll teach you alchemy when I have time.”
“Many thanks, Master!”Lv Hongyu said happily as well.
Zhang Chu looked at Song Minjun again, “Why are you still in Jinling?”
Song Minjun hemmed and hawed, “Brother Zhang, didn’t we say no, all of your living expenses, our Song Family will cover it all, we can’t run away just because you’re not in Jinling.”
“Have a heart!”Zhang Chu said.
Song Minjun hurriedly said, “Brother Zhang, that Qi Condensation Pill, can it be shipped again? Now that the weirdness has descended, many of the big bosses who are preparing to leave the country want to go out after they’ve opened up their dantian.”
“This goods, demand exceeds supply ……,” Song Minjun had an expectant look on her face.
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, spoke, “Good, I’ll teach Red Fish to refine pills, so let’s take the Qi Condensation Pill to practice, and when Red Fish learns it, it will naturally be able to be supplied in large quantities.”
Song Minjun was instantly overjoyed, “That would be great!”
Finally, Zhang Chu looked at Shangguan Qingxue again, “What about you? How is the situation with the talisman factory?”
Shangguan Qingxue smiled faintly, “Making money is quite lucrative, it’s just that it often encounters some messy things.”
“Messy things?”Zhang Chu looked odd, “What kind of things?”
At this moment, Shangguan Qingxue said, “Some time ago, I was even sued.”
Zhang Chu looked puzzled.
Zhang Chu had a head full of question marks as he sized up Shangguan Qingxue, “That’s not right, I can’t see that you have a prison sentence on you.”
Shangguan Qingxue smiled faintly, “It’s not the people in the country who are suing me, it’s several inexplicable companies abroad that are suing me.”
“Prosecuting you for what?”Zhang Chu asked.
Shangguan Qingxue said, “Isn’t it true that our talismans, at 300,000 US dollars a piece, are sold to foreign noble communities?”
Zhang Chu nodded, “That’s right.”
“Then someone sued us, saying that we discriminated against the poor.”Shangguan Qingxue said.
Ye Lei also hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes, this even made the news, there was a stupid woman in a foreign country who appealed on the internet for our talismans to be given to the poor districts for free.”
Zhang Chu glared, “They have bags of brains!”
Shangguan Qingxue spread her hands, “Things like this will come once every three days, either saying that I’m discriminating against someone, or saying that I’m blaspheming God, or even more outrageous, saying that I’m destroying the ecological balance.”
“No, what the hell is destroying the ecological balance again?”Zhang Chu asked.
Shangguan Qingxue took a sip of red wine before she laughed, “They say that that ghosts and monsters are also a part of nature, and that my talismans repelling ghosts and monsters is compressing the space for ghosts and monsters to survive.”
“On the contrary, the ones who say such things are still those women from the aristocratic districts who bought my talismans, one after another living under the protection of our talismans and opposing our talismans.”
Zhang Chu felt ridiculous as he couldn’t help but say, “Then wouldn’t it be fine if you don’t sell to their noble districts?”
Shangguan Qingxue hemmed and hawed, “You’re right, when the talismans for that person’s neighbourhood come to time, I won’t sell them to her.”
“What a bunch of fed up retards!”Zhang Chu cursed.
Shangguan Qingxue, on the other hand, sighed, “It can’t be helped, if you want to earn people’s money, you always have to deal with this kind of people.”
Song Minjun, on the other hand, said, “Your biggest trouble isn’t these trivial matters, right?”
“There are still things?”Zhang Chu asked.
Shangguan Qingxue nodded slightly, “Also, it’s the fact that quite a few countries in the West have united and sued me for monopolisation.”
Zhang Chu blinked, “We are a monopoly.”
“No, we call this a patent, we can’t call it a monopoly!”Shangguan Qingxue corrected Zhang Chu, “If you say monopoly, it will be troublesome.”
Zhang Chu was a little confused, but looking at Shangguan Qingxue’s appearance, it seemed that things were not too serious, it was just that things were a bit messy.
So Zhang Chu said, “Well, I get it, you’re making money, so someone’s jealous.”
Shangguan Qingxue then laughed, “More than just red-eyed, they are already ready to make a move to rob them, that is, if the old lady doesn’t take care of them, they won’t be able to rob them.”
At this moment, Zhang Chu thought of those apothecaries.
It was unknown whether they would actually buy herbs in large quantities and whether they would sell potions internationally.
Zhang Chu felt that they would definitely harvest the entire world.
After inquiring around, the crowd chattered again and asked Zhang Chu what was going on in the Ghost Mist World.
After casually chatting for a few sentences, Zhang Chu then said, “By the way, tomorrow, when my little shop opens, all of you will help me publicise it.”
“You still have to rely on fortune telling to make money now?”Shangguan Qingxue asked.
In fact, right now, even if Zhang Chu did nothing all day long, his money, he wouldn’t be able to spend it all.
Because, Shangguan Qingxue’s talisman factory, however, had Zhang Chu’s shares, and the percentage was not low, for every talisman sold, a large sum of money would go to Zhang Chu.
Although the money had all been given to Shang Xuan Yue, no matter what, Zhang Chu didn’t look like he was short of money, right?
Zhang Chu then spoke, “This time, it’s not to make money, it’s for a material.”
“Material?”The crowd looked odd, “What kind of material?”
At this moment, Zhang Chu said, “My master wants a talisman of the third grade or higher, and I want to draw a talisman of the fourth grade, which requires a material that isn’t very easy to find, so I need to cast a wide net and ask around.”
“What do you need, I’ll just help you find it directly.”Shangguan Qingxue said.
Zhang Chu, however, shook his head, “It’s not a material that can be found directly, I need a kind of earth called Dragon Walking Earth, this kind of earth can only be encountered when one is telling fortunes and looking at graveyards.”
“You can’t find it if you look for it directly.”
The crowd didn’t understand it either, but since Zhang Chu wanted everyone to help publicise it, so Shangguan Qingxue said, “That’s fine, I’ll publicise it for you tomorrow, just say, Half Immortal Zhang has returned to Jinling again and can tell fortunes!”
