Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2401: Chapter 28: Cai Youdao’s Part-Timer Spirit Awakens

Regarding the Spirit Rice trade, a total contract of thirty billion three hundred and fifty million Immortal Crystals was finalized, with estimated gross profit over twenty billion.

This is an astronomical figure in terms of gross profit, equivalent to a full twenty Immortal Spirit Stones!

Moreover, this is the annual trade volume.

Every year!

Twenty Immortal Spirit Stones a year, save up for two years, and that’s enough to buy an Immortal Artifact.

As long as the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty still needs grain, this Spirit Rice trade can continue indefinitely, and over time, the profits gained can only be described with the word “immense”.

With this income, the Divine Martial World is able to accomplish a great many things.

Whether it’s purchasing Dan medicine to improve aptitude, bringing back to train more talents, planning for the future, or buying Immortal Artifacts, Immortal Scriptures, and other items, it can significantly enhance the foundation of the Divine Martial World and accumulate more advantages for the human race facing the future.

Next, the foundation of the Divine Martial World is likely to experience a new wave of prosperity!

“Let’s discuss the procurement plans for raw ores, ore powder, metal ingots, and some Spirit Medicine materials,” Ji Yueer suggested with the sort of excitement as if she were on a sugar high.

This wave was overwhelmingly successful.

And Prince Yuan Zheng was not to be outdone, feeling equally euphoric.

This batch of Spirit Rice, although expensive, is slightly pricier than previous imports from the Xian Wu Immortal Dynasty, but ultimately of better quality, enough to solve their urgent crisis and allow the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty to step out of its predicament!

With the grain crisis resolved in the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty, they can now take the initiative when facing the Xian Wu Immortal Dynasty and respond calmly. Next, it will be interesting to see how the Xian Wu Immortal Dynasty handles the import issue of metal ores.

The Xian Wu Immortal Dynasty has always had considerable annual metal consumption. Previously importing from the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty benefited from tax incentives, making it very cheap; importing from elsewhere will not offer such perks.

His Majesty the Old Ancestor knows these things and will surely be very pleased.

Having handled this matter so beautifully perhaps might even earn him some rewards~

He should hurry and inform His Majesty the Old Ancestor of this good news, to bring joy to him too.

…

Meanwhile.

In a street-side private room at Yikang Food Palace.

Phoenix Wing, Dragon Liver, Immortal Brew… the table was laden with steaming and delicious dishes, appearing extremely sumptuous and tempting.

It was evident that the managers and chefs within Yikang Food Palace had received some advice. Compared to last time, this table of delicacies was more exquisite and refined, some even being non-sale items, probably custom-made for Wang Shouzhe and his group.

No wonder.

A month had passed since the auction event, and though no one discussed it openly, it had spread secretly. Naturally, Situ Xuejia had already received the news, and seeing Wang Shouzhe and Yun Tiange return, he would naturally do his best to make a good impression.

Wang Shouzhe sat at the table, holding chopsticks, attempting several times to reach for the dishes but eventually gave up and reluctantly set the chopsticks down, leaning against his chair and looking towards the other side.

At that spot, Cai Youdao, looking disheveled and unkempt, held a marinated Phoenix Wing in his hand, devouring it with righteous entitlement, as if freeloading off Wang Shouzhe were his intention all along.

While eating, he continued to pitch himself to Wang Shouzhe: “Bipolar Spirit, considering you’ve invited me to this meal, for just two top quality Spirit Stones a year, you could have a True Immortal.”

Wang Shouzhe was speechless.

Your price reduction speed is too swift, it’s catching me off guard.

Yun Tiange, seated beside Wang Shouzhe, was visibly annoyed by Cai Youdao’s demeanor: “You old man, haven’t we made it clear it’s not going to happen? Why have you still tagged along? Also, did we permit you to eat? You’re just mooching here?”

“Don’t be so absolute~ I, the old man, have lived so many years more than you, even if my skills in Alchemy and Artifact Refining aren’t great, I do have some insight. Hiring me won’t be a loss.” Cai Youdao chuckled mischievously, “Over the years I’ve traveled the Eastern Dawn God Continent to find an apprentice, as newcomers you will inevitably find use for me. Moreover, back then Lici that girl said she’d treat me to a meal, you being her Fourth Uncle, might as well treat me on her behalf.”

As he spoke, the private room door was knocked.

It turned out Ji Yueer and Jiang Yuling had finished their business and came to join Shouzhe.

In fact, if not for the prior arrangement to meet Ji Yueer here, Wang Shouzhe and Yun Tiange wouldn’t have lingered so long, and would have left directly when Cai Youdao insisted on tagging along.

Upon entering the room, Ji Yueer pulled out a stack of contracts, hesitating whether to report the situation immediately given strangers were present in the room.

Suddenly.

Jiang Yuling bypassed her directly, plopped herself onto Wang Shouzhe’s lap, and embraced his neck: “Shouzhe, I knew you were wealthy, but not to this extent.”

“One Immortal Spirit Stone, just one Immortal Spirit Stone a year and you could have a girlfriend who’s as beautiful as a flower, has a fiery figure, and is profoundly skilled, at the mid-stage of Transcendent Void Realm.” Jiang Yuling’s usually lofty face was now full of flattery, patting her chest audaciously, tossing flirtatious glances at Wang Shouzhe, “Most importantly, you don’t have to marry me. If you tire of me, you can easily compensate me and discard me, I promise not to cling onto you or disrupt your family harmony!”

“How about it? A little consideration?”
