Chapter 799 Rooted in the soil of the five elements
Li Longchen is a wealthy man in Hedong and a well-known local figure. The Northern Escort Agency he runs has a wide reputation and has friends all over the world.
In the afternoon, Li Longchen was practicing in the Zilong Mansion that he carefully built. Since the last time he went to Wu Bei to help him enter the late stage of refining, he has been working hard every day. Now he is in the late stage of Sheng Nian, and he is not far away from the realm of innate elixir creation.
.
Suddenly, someone hurriedly came to report: "Chief escort, two guests are here and want to see you."
Li Longchen was studying hard and said impatiently: "Just say I don't have time."
"Long Chen, you are so arrogant that you don't even see your uncle?" A familiar voice sounded.
Li Longchen stood up with great excitement, and said with ecstasy: "Uncle Master! Why are you here?"
Two people appeared at the door, it was Wu Bei and Shen Zhao.
Wu Bei snorted: "Didn't you say you don't have time?"
Li Longchen hurriedly knelt down and said, "Don't be angry, old man. I didn't know it was you, old man. If I had known that my uncle was coming, I would have been waiting at the door half a day in advance."
Wu Bei waved his hand: "Get up, you are like a kowtowing bug all day long."
Li Longchen stood up with a smile and said, "Uncle Master, why do you have time to come to my place? Are you coming to Hedong for business?"
Wu Bei: "Can't you come if you have nothing to do?"
Li Longchen hurriedly smiled and said: "Yes, you can come at any time. My nephew is sweeping the bed and waiting for you."
Wu Beidao: "You are half right. I happen to be at the Great Zen Temple, and I thought it was not far from your place, so I came over to have a look. Well, yes, I have already had thoughts, but my spiritual thoughts are still a little weak."
Li Longchen said gratefully: "Uncle Master, this is no longer slow. I feel that in a year or two at most, my spiritual will will become stronger."
Wu Beidao: "One or two years is too slow. Since I am here, I will help you to become a human immortal as soon as possible."
Li Longchen's eyes shone. He now had great trust in Wu Bei. Even if Wu Bei said shit was edible, he would definitely taste it without hesitation.
"Uncle Master, how can we quickly improve this spiritual consciousness in a short period of time?" he asked.
Wu Bei took out a soul crystal and threw it to him, saying, "Take it later to practice."
Li Longchen recognized at a glance that this stone was given to his uncle and master by his junior uncle. He later asked his master, and his master told him that this object was called a soul crystal, and it was a priceless treasure that could increase the power of the soul!
Li Longchen was so excited that he was shaking all over. He looked at Wu Bei and said, "Uncle, this is too precious."
Wu Bei: "Take it. With it, you should be able to step into Dancheng. After that, if you attack the human immortal, it will be a matter of course."
Li Longchen ordered someone to bring the best wine and planned to have a few drinks with Wu Bei. As soon as the wine was put on the table, a subordinate hurried over and said: "Chief escort, our boss is here!"
Hearing that his boss had arrived, Li Longchen was a little surprised. He said to Wu Bei: "Uncle, my boss is probably here to check the accounts. I will go and deal with it, and I will come back to accompany you."
Wu Beidao: "Go ahead."
Li Longchen was worried, so he asked his apprentice Hong Zhan to accompany Wu Bei for him first. Hong Zhan had received Wu Bei's guidance before, and he was very happy. When he came to the table, without saying a word, he drank half a bottle of Bai Bai first.
Vintage Fenjiu.
Wu Bei: "Hong Zhan, your master is the chief escort, why is there a master above him?"
Hong Zhan said: "It's normal for my uncle not to know. When the Northern Bodyguard Agency was first opened, its influence was average and it was never able to grow. It was not until later that a man named Ma came to Master and said he was willing to invest in buying part of the bodyguard's shares. They
The Ma family will help establish the escort agency."
When Wu Bei heard "Ma family", he asked: "But the Ma family in the northwest?"
Hong Zhan nodded: "Yes. Uncle Shi, the Ma family claims to be the second in power in the northwest, and no one dares to claim to be the first. With the support of the Ma family, the Northern Escort Bureau has developed rapidly. And based on it, the business is getting better and better.
big."
Wu Bei: "How much of the stock price does the Ma family account for?"
"Seventy percent." Hong Zhan said, "And they take away 70% of the gross profit. The remaining 30% of the gross profit, after deducting the cost, the master actually doesn't make much."
Wu Bei: "There is nothing we can do about it. The Escort Agency was developed with the help of the Ma family. Long Chen can get 30% at no loss."
Hong Zhan: "My master said the same thing. However, in the past year, the Ma family has approached the master twice and wanted to buy out his shares. The master has never agreed, and the Ma family seems to be very unhappy."
Wu Bei: "It's not enough for the Ma family to hold 70% of the shares. Now you want all the shares?"
Hong Zhan: "I heard from Master that the Ma family has changed its head. The original head is seriously ill in bed and will not live long. The new head is the nephew of the old head."
Wu Bei: "It's normal to change the people in charge and change the strategy. But this choice is really difficult."
Hong Zhan: "No, my master couldn't sleep all night. He told me that if he agreed, his years of operation would be easier for others. If he didn't agree, the Ma family would definitely use various means to force him to agree.
.The Ma family came to check the accounts today, and most likely they are related to this matter."
Wu Bei sneered: "The Ma family is the largest force in the northwest, but we are not easy to mess with."
After saying a few words, Li Longchen came back. His face was not good-looking, but he pretended to smile and raised a glass in honor of Wu Bei.
Wu Bei asked: "Long Chen, what happened?"
Li Longchen sighed softly and said: "I didn't want my uncle to know about this kind of nonsense. But I didn't expect that the Ma family would come by such a coincidence, and my uncle would run into it."
Wu Bei: "I already know the relationship between the Ma family and you. The Ma family is here for the 30% of your shares this time, right?"
Li Longchen nodded: "Yes. Although they didn't say it explicitly, I knew that the Ma family was going to put pressure on me. Just now, Master Ma brought a group of people to check the accounts and said that there was something wrong with my accounts and that I would have to pay 10% more gross profit this year.
It's a joke, the money I can get is less than 10% of the gross profit, if they ask me to pay another 10%, won't I be losing money every year?"
Wu Bei looked at him: "What are your plans?"
Li Longchen sighed softly and said: "What other plans can I have? If it doesn't work, I will give up the shares and everyone will break up."
Wu Beidao: "Long Chen, you can't back down on this matter, just fight for your reasons. If the Ma family uses power to bully others, my uncle will support you."
Li Longchen was grateful in his heart and said: "Uncle, I don't need to trouble you, this is a trivial matter."
Wu Bei: "How can this be a trivial matter? Thirty percent gross profit is a huge profit. Instead of giving it to others, it's better to use it to buy wine yourself."
Li Longchen smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Master, the name of the Northwest King is intimidating. If there is no other way, I really don't want to conflict with the Ma family."
The "King of the Northwest" mentioned by Li Longchen refers to the head of the old family, Ma Xingkong, who was famous far and wide and was a contemporary of Qiao Buxian, Mr. Dongfo.
It is rumored that Ma Xingkong broke through to the realm of Earth Immortal as early as thirty years ago. What's even more powerful is that Ma Xingkong also refined a martial spirit! His strength far exceeds that of Earth Immortals of the same level.
Because the Ma family believed in the Xilan religion, the earthly immortal world could not control them. As a result, the Ma family developed smoothly and gradually became a veritable king of the northwest!
