The Prodigal Son of the Mystical Sect

"You are..."

Seeing someone casting a mocking look at her, Mu Liuling was slightly startled, but soon remembered what Chu Tianxiao had said to her before returning to the Ziyi Hou Mansion, and then she thought about it and chuckled, "You must be the man in the house. Qiu Da is in charge, right?”

Manager Qiu Da said calmly: "Oh? You, a new loser, actually know me?"

As if Mu Liuling didn't hear the sarcasm in his words, he smiled lightly and said: "Senior Qiu Ming can be promoted to the new chief steward of the Ziyi Hou Mansion, and I will naturally look up to him for a long time."

Manager Qiu Da said in a strange tone: "Is that so... But I feel that the phrase 'Long time admiration' is unnecessary. I heard that the monthly salary the young master has given you is two hundred thousand spiritual coins, and there is also a special payment of ten to make up for it." 50,000 yuan solves difficult problems, and the carriage in and out becomes a nine-horse team, and the golden cloud Train, luxurious clothes and hair... Haha, I have been in the Tianjue Chu family for more than ten years, and this is the first time I have seen such a "dog leg"! Master Meng thinks so highly of me, why do you need to look up to me, a bad old man, for a long time? ? This is too much to say..."

Mrs. Fan left her nap, not in front of the mistress of the Ziyi Hou Mansion. The Qiu Da steward became more and more arrogant because of his status. When he thought about it, this prodigal son was so useless yet he still didn't know how to advance or retreat. He heard that the Chu family in Kyoto was about to prepare. It's over. I'm afraid this prodigal son won't be able to survive for a few days, so he said this in an extremely rude manner, with almost no concealment of his insinuations.

Hearing this, the expressions of several people in the room became unsightly. When many people looked at Chu Tianxiao, they saw that he was blowing fragrant tea, whispering something about burning his mouth, and seemed not to be aware of Qiu Da's stewardship at all. Heart-breaking words.

He saw Mu Liuling's gentle smile. After hearing this sarcasm, he was still polite and polite, and his words were neither humble nor arrogant: "I still have to say the word "Jiu admire". After all, you were promoted by 'exceptional' "But now, Chief Manager Qiu, can you give in? Liu Ling is about to report the results of this acquisition to the young master, but you... are blocking the way."

As soon as these words came out, Steward Qiu frowned slightly, realizing that he might have underestimated this girl, but her hands were clearly empty and she did not bring back the title deed to the wasteland. This was a fact. Could there be any changes?

However, he thought in his heart that Manager Qiu Da was still a person of some status. He snorted softly and stepped aside. Mu Liuling slowly walked forward with a smile and saluted.

"Young Master."

Chu Tianxiao nodded and said: "Liu Ling, you have been gone for so long, have you settled?"

Mu Liuling lowered his head and said calmly: "Reply to the young master, fortunately you have lived up to your fate!"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people in the room suddenly changed. Manager Qiu Da couldn't help but snort: "Thank you for living up to your fate? I didn't expect that Miss Mu, a girl, has the same face as some people." Young master, you are obviously empty-handed and have brought nothing back, but you are talking about being lucky and not insulting your fate... Haha, could it be that you have won the opportunity to let me... wait for another discussion, and you are lucky enough to be worthy of your fate? If that is the case, then this word is too good. It’s not worth much anymore…”

Hearing this, several people in the room looked in agreement, but Mu Liuling was neither humble nor overbearing. He turned his eyes and said, "I am about to report the details of this matter to the young master. There are some unrelated people, please stop making jokes."

As soon as these words came out, Manager Qiu immediately gritted his teeth. How dare this little girl dare to talk to him like this? Who does she think she is? Is it amazing to hug that prodigal Chu Tianxiao’s lap?

"You didn't bring back the contract, you didn't bring back the land deed, and the results of the war were all in vain. This is the fact! Do you still want to report? Okay, I want to hear it. How can you still tell the truth?"

Mu Liuling said slowly: "It's true that I didn't bring back the land deed, but that's because..."

After a pause, Mu Liuling showed a faint smile: "The contents of the transaction... have changed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was stunned, but Chu Tianxiao understood it instantly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately spread out the previous industrial map of Tianjue City.

Mu Liuling cast a grateful look, drew a small circle on the map, and said loudly: "It turns out that the young master ordered Liu Ling to buy this place, about an acre of wasteland."

"Young Master made it clear that as long as the price is higher, don't bargain, Quan will be the prodigal, and gave Liu Ling the authority of 1.5 million spiritual coins... And Liu Ling lived up to his trust, and the initial price negotiated was exactly one hundred. Five hundred thousand."

As soon as these words came out, Manager Qiu couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Is this called living up to your trust? From this point of view, it really lives up to its mission! It cost 1.2 million spiritual coins to buy this piece of wasteland. , It’s all a premium! You spent 1.5 million to reach a preliminary agreement, and you didn’t even have a contract. Haha... It’s really eye-opening for me, what a loser, you really know how to figure out the master’s intentions!”

Several people around him shook their heads and talked in low voices.

"Why……"

"I told you before, a little girl is unreliable..."

"A prodigal son of a bitch...how can he be trusted?"

"Yeah, how can we talk about business like this... The lowest price was negotiated, but there is no land deed. It's really funny."

"Count on the eyes of a prodigal... haha."

However, Mu Liuling completely ignored the comments of these people and said slowly: "Please be patient, Liu Ling hasn't finished speaking yet."

"Oh, oh! Miss Mu, go ahead. If you have any more funny jokes, just tell them, we are listening!" Manager Qiu said with a smile on his face, not without a hint of ridicule.

Several people also shook their heads helplessly.

But then, Mu Liuling's words shocked them so much that they couldn't even finish another sentence!

I saw her gently tapping her hand to circle an area on the original map. Looking at the area, it was doubled!

"One hundred and fifty spirit coins, in addition to the plot of land ordered by the young master, also includes the other two plots of wasteland that the other party intends to sell, roughly calculated, a total of two acres and three points!"

"The reason why Liu Ling did not get the land deed is because it is a major matter. Although it is a good thing, Liu Ling thinks that the young master should decide whether to expand the land by twice, so he will report back first. Mr. Yi, who wants to sell the land, is now waiting for the young master in the account office. Liu Ling has negotiated everything. If the young master is interested, just let him know. The contract will be presented soon. Liu Ling dare not overstep his authority in this matter. The young master should make the decision himself."

As he said this, Mu Liu Ling turned to the steward Qiu and said calmly: "Everything is settled. It is not what some people think out of context. It is just an intention."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar! The first reaction of the steward Qiu was that it was impossible, but looking at Mu Liu Ling's confident expression, he knew that the other party would never tell such a big lie, so... is this all true?

As soon as he thought of this, Manager Qiu felt that his mocking words just now seemed to come back to him, as if he was grabbed by a pair of big hands and slapped in the face, and he was extremely embarrassed.

The other people who had just discussed also covered their cheeks and lowered their heads, not very ashamed.

Mu Liuling did not give them time to breathe, but just showed a devilish smile and said lightly: "Oh, by the way, the two extra wastelands, as far as Liuling knows, were originally going to be sold to the Qin family..."

Bang!

This was the last straw that broke the camel's back. A group of people were so ashamed that they almost wanted to commit suicide. But the chief steward Qiu was so angry that he shouted, "This is impossible! How can a little girl like you do this? Are all the Qin family members useless? They have taken the lead, and you... This is impossible!"

This was a bit of a reckless statement. For a moment, many people looked at the chief steward Qiu with a bit of unkindness. However, Mu Liuling received a faint encouraging look from Chu Tianxiao, so he smiled slightly and said.

"Oh... This is very simple."

"Because the Qin family has to pay the bill in installments, it will take about three months to pay the full amount, and the young master's intention is to pay it all at once."

Everyone nodded. This was very obvious. After all, the head of the Qin family was not there. There was only one acting head of the family. He could bear the family division and contradictions caused by "Qin Yun" and shorten the repayment period to three months. This was already the limit. After all, Qin Jiaojiao was not the head of the family yet, and she would never become the head of the Qin family!

But everyone was still puzzled: Even if it was in installments, so what? Did Mr. Yi need money urgently? But that didn't make sense. Even if he was short of money, the down payment from the Qin family should be enough to support him.

Then Mu Liuling said slowly: "Because the Qin family was well prepared and had the first-mover advantage, Mr. Yi was unwilling to offend the Qin family at first, and the advantage of the young master was only that little, and it was still very weak... So, I calculated an account for Mr. Yi."

Mu Liuling smiled lightly and said: "Mr. Yi's industry also has three restaurants and two iron shops, which are not small. So I calculated an account for him."

"Calculated on average, two restaurants spend 3,000 spirit coins a day and earn 5,000, so the business can only be considered average. There is another one that is slightly better, but the daily profit is only 3,000 to 4,000 spirit coins, which can only be considered medium level, but... If you immediately invest 200,000 spirit coins to open up the road around the stream, the value of this building can at least increase by Twice!"

"Similarly, the daily output of the iron shop is 100,000 refined irons, and the rough cost is about 20,000 spirit coins. However, most of the output is not treasures, and the average price of the Red Dragon Sword is only 30,000 or 40,000. It is hard to say that there is much profit, just barely enough to make a loss. But if you spend a million spirit coins to purchase meteorite iron from the Western Qin Empire..."

"Then we can do the math - how much difference is there between the profit of 'waiting for the renewal in March and continuing to invest' and the profit of 'investing the cash directly in the expansion of the industry and operating after three months'? As we all know, the land price of Tianjue City is 20,000 spirit coins per acre, plus many miscellaneous items..."

Mu Liuling spoke faster and faster, popping out numbers one after another, and actually calculated in class! At first, everyone could barely understand some of it, but later, even the manager Qiu had to admit a terrible fact - even someone like him who has been dealing with numbers for decades, can't keep up with Mu Liuling's mental arithmetic!

"To sum up..."

"The former's benefit is 260,000 spirit coins, no more than that."

As he said this, Mu Liuling showed his devilish smile again: "And the latter's answer is... more than 1,072,800 spirit coins! The difference between the two is five times!"

Hiss!

When this was said, several people in the field were so shocked that they couldn't speak. They were all shocked. Only the steward Qiu came back to his senses and hurriedly said loudly: "No, that's not right! Even so, it's impossible to buy more than twice the wasteland! Not to mention that those wastelands were originally bound, and the seller would not ignore the loss of tearing up the contract! So it's still impossible!"

"Yes, it's really impossible just by doing this..." Mu Liuling looked at him and smiled faintly.

"But if... plus the Great Zhou Dynasty's three-year autumn test?"

The steward Qiu's heart trembled violently!

But Mu Liuling said calmly: "Liuling also did some calculations. That is, during the autumn exam after March, if he can develop the restaurant and iron shop to that scale, how much profit will he get during the peak period, as well as the potential benefits of connections and support..."

"The answer... is more than double! A rough calculation, it is about 2.12 million spirit coins! In addition, there are many 'chance' possibilities..."

"Compared with this, what weight does the Qin family's lazy renewal... have? Liu Ling chatted with him for a while and told him that the young master just bought land to refine jewelry for fun, which made him even more convinced After understanding the young master's own 'value',...does Liu Ling need to say more?"

With that said, Mu Liuling bowed to Chu Tianxiao: "Young Master, Liu Ling's report is over."

The whole place was silent.

After a long while, Steward Qiu looked at Mu Liuling in disbelief, gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "Who are you? How could there be someone like you in the Mu family..."

Mu Liuling smiled faintly when he heard this, then walked behind Chu Tianxiao, stood respectfully, and said slowly: "As you just said, I am the young master's lackey."

After saying that, he bowed slightly and said calmly: "Thank you, Young Master, for your teaching."

The words fell to the ground, and the whole audience could hear them. Everyone's eyes turned to Chu Tianxiao, but he took another sip of the tea, shook his head and said, "I'm tired, Liu Ling, come with me for a walk."

After saying that, he stood up, ignored the audience, and was about to leave. A steward couldn't help but asked: "Master, what about this..."

Chu Tianxiao didn't even look back: "What should I do? What should I do? It's come to this point. Do you still need me to teach you next?"

"Oh, by the way, starting from today, Mu Liuling will be promoted to the rank of Purple Marquis Mansion and candidacy for the chief steward."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar again. Manager Qiu Da blushed even more, but couldn't say a word. Several people in the room knew very well: If it weren't for Mu Liuling's junior qualifications, he would have With this young master’s temperament, I’m afraid he’s not a ‘candidate’…

Chu Tianxiao ignored the people with different expressions in the room and just yawned. He glanced at Steward Qiu with a meaningful look from the corner of his eyes, turned around and left. Mu Liuling followed closely, leading a group of people. He watched the two people go away with complicated eyes. Only Steward Qiu showed a trace of hatred and evil in his eyes, and secretly made a decision...
