"Is this true?" Chen Zangfeng asked, pretending to be hesitant.
Mr. Tulong nodded slightly: "Our cooperation with the old general is limited to the materials and money we each need. It will never involve any other rights disputes, let alone force the Chen family to do things that harm the people of Daxia.
!”
"If the old general is still not at ease, you can directly write what I just said into the contract. If you violate this word, I am willing to pay for it with my own head!"
The deputy master of Rentian Qibao Pavilion has mentioned this. Logically speaking, all worries should have been eliminated long ago, right?
However, what the elders didn't expect was that their patriarch actually nodded rudely.
While calling the servants to bring a pen and paper, he added: "I can only be a villain first and then a gentleman. I hope Mr. Tulong will take care of me."
This move made all the elders shake their heads, roll their eyes wildly, and thought to themselves: "Even if you are thinking about the position of my Chen family, there is no need to be so blunt and inhumane, right?"
"Looking at this tone, do you really plan to write 'liquidated damages include head on head' into the contract? Isn't this... too ridiculous?"
"If Mr. Tulong is not happy, the cooperation will be ruined..."
"Given the current bleak situation of our Chen family, if I miss the opportunity to cooperate with Tianqibao Pavilion because of your words, you, Chen Zangfeng, will become the sinner of the Chen family!"
…
As for the Great Elder Chen Jinyang, he raised his eyebrows and his eyes lit up: "This is an opportunity!"
"If it is really because of what Chen Zangfeng said before that he offended Mr. Tulong and the Tianqi Pavilion Master behind him, and the cooperation between the two parties comes to nothing, the old man Chen Zangfeng's prestige in the clan will be greatly damaged!"
Different from the Great Elder.
The second elder, Chen Qibing, hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Hahaha, Mr. Tulong, the head of my family has such a temper. He has always taken matters into his own hands, so you must not take it to heart."
"Haha, good, good!"
Chen Xiaohai said three good words in a row, which was thought-provoking.
Most people thought he was irritated. He gritted his teeth and spat out a few good words, then laughed in anger.
However, the next moment, Mr. Tulong spoke again, leaving everyone in the banquet hall speechless——
"Bring a pen and paper, we will sign a contract immediately, just as General Chen said!"
"To be honest, before I came here, the master of the pavilion personally told me: Although there are good people with great reputations, it is not always the case."
"He ordered me to test General Chen to see if he is as upright and loyal as the legend says. At this moment, I can finally be convinced that the rumors are true and the reputation is true."
"In line with General Chen's patriotism and protecting the people, we at Tianqibao Pavilion are willing to make another concession: the purchase price of the materials will be increased by another half percent based on the previous negotiation!"
Half a percent doesn’t sound like much at first, but it’s amazing when put into practice.
Half of ten thousand is five hundred, but what about one million or ten million? The larger the base, the more terrifying the half percent profit will be.
What's more, the original purchase price offered by Tianqibao Pavilion for the materials was already extremely generous...
In the banquet hall, in addition to the patriarch and the ten elders, the Chen family naturally had some people serving tea and water.
Today, because of the face of the clan leader Chen Zangfeng, the family negotiated a big deal during the turbulent times, which is nothing more than giving help in the snow.
Moreover, the old patriarch's true tough style not only did not anger the other party, but also made the big benefactor more admired and offered more generous rewards...
Through the mouths of those servants, I believe that this matter will soon become known to the whole clan.
There is no doubt that Chen Zangfeng will also gain more centripetal force from his tribe, and his prestige will be greater than before...
Not long after, the cooperation contract between Tianqibao Pavilion and the Chen family was signed in public.
Chen Zangfeng and Chen Xiaohai each held a contract in which each other's blood fingerprints were pressed on the contract and a soul mark was imprinted on it.
The moment they signed the contract and placed each other, in the Tianqibao Pavilion, which was nine miles away from General Chen's mansion, a pleasant system prompt suddenly sounded in Chen Shen's ears——
"Ding! System certification: The host has created a new economic lifeline for the family, reviving the internal economic system of the General's Mansion, and returning the economic lifeline to the direct line controllers."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing one of the main missions and receiving a reward: 1,000 points of invincible secrets. A special spiritual level mysterious pill and a special spiritual level mysterious talisman."
[Transformation Pill]: A top-grade mysterious pill on the spiritual level. After taking it, it can help mysterious beasts activate the ability to transform into human form without any side effects.
[Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Clan Talisman]: A middle-grade mysterious talisman of the spiritual level. If you turn it on, you can instantly release the power of ten thousand swords to kill enemies. Its power is overbearing, comparable to the full blow of a peak cultivator of the Xuan King.
While Chen Shen was carefully looking at the information about the mysterious pill and the mysterious talisman, the system prompt sounded again——
"Ding! The economic lifeline task has a time limit of three months, and the host completed it in less than half a month, so he will receive an additional reward bonus: 1,000 points of invincible secrets."
…
Hahaha!
The young man laughed three times: "So that's it, I understand!"
"This task is not about how much money I can make personally, but it must bring income to the family."
"The income must also be sustainable and substantial enough to support the entire family's expenses."
"Yes, this echoes the meaning of the four words "economic lifeline". Thinking about it, it must be the second uncle who signed the cooperation contract with grandpa on behalf of Tianqibao Pavilion, so that the invincible system can be certified..."
Now, the task has been overfulfilled, and the spiritual level mysterious pills and mysterious talismans rewarded by the system have been put aside for the time being.
What tempted Chen Shen the most was the total invincible secret value of two thousand points!
He impatiently called up the war puppet page, and with a thought -
"Ding! The host has chosen Bronze 2 to Bronze 18, as well as the Three Sword Guards. Are you sure you want to advance these twenty war puppets?"
Well, Tongda has been promoted to a five-star Xuan Master a long time ago.
However, due to the limitations of the puppet's own materials and other aspects of "qualification", it can no longer advance to the king level again.
But the other twenty puppets are still at the Xuanshi level.
Now, with enough secret points, there is no reason not to improve their combat power.
The young man chose to confirm without hesitation——
"Ding! Each Xuanshi realm puppet needs to spend 100 points of invincibility to advance to the Xuanshi realm. A total of 2,000 points. Do you want to confirm?"
"yes!"
"Ding! The Heavenly Sword Guard has successfully advanced. The current level is: Eight-star Mysterious Master Realm Puppet."
"Ding! Earth Sword Guard..."
"Ding! Successfully advanced to Bronze Level 2. Current level: Five-star Mystic Master Realm Puppet."
As the system prompts the song to end, the three sword guards of heaven, earth, and man, as well as the seventeen Shaolin bronze figures, all advanced successfully without exception!
