Chapter 237 Shangguan Weier's Request
Orange's beautiful eyes widened slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in them. She hadn't expected Ye Nanxiao to admit it so readily, and even hand over the president's token of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
The wealth possessed by the Aodu Chamber of Commerce is not a small amount; the resources contained within are so vast that even members of the royal family would be ruthless enough to turn their swords against their own kin.
After a few seconds of thought, Orange pushed the president's token of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce towards Ye Nanxiao, her beautiful eyes fixed on him, and her red lips parted slightly, "I hope everything goes smoothly, ally?"
"Everything will go smoothly, ally." Ye Nanxiao's lips curled up slightly as he swept his right hand across the table and put away the commander's order.
Just as they put away the silencing bead, Xuan Ziwen led Huo Yuhao out of the experimental room inside.
Xuan Ziwen's hair was messy, like a bird's nest, and his white coat had many creases, but his eyes shone with a sharp light.
Following behind Xuan Ziwen, Huo Yuhao wore Ye Nanxiao's signature shrewd businessman smile, rubbing his hands together in front of him every now and then.
As soon as the two came out, they attracted Ju Zi's attention.
Ju Zi was quite interested in the newcomer Huo Yuhao, just as she had been when Ye Nanxiao first arrived.
New junior, is it alright if you help your senior with her experimental research project?
Xuan Ziwen went straight to Ye Nanxiao and dragged him away into the experimental room they had just come out of, while the latter looked completely bewildered.
Ye Nanxiao, who was still holding two pieces of titanium in his hand, was grabbed by the collar by Xuan Ziwen, and his head was full of question marks.
When Ye Nanxiao saw his beloved younger brother rubbing his hands together in a somewhat lewd manner, he immediately understood.
Huo Yuhao's skill of using the bamboo pole was learned from him; even the movements and the spirit of the swing were copied by Huo Yuhao. Considering that Ye Nanxiao and Huo Yuhao came to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy as individuals, Ye Nanxiao was certain that Xuan Ziwen had been tricked by him and then tricked by his own little brother.
A bright smile bloomed on Orange's pretty face. She cupped one hand to her mouth like a megaphone, and clenched her other fist, waving it vigorously a few times. "Teacher, you're still young, please don't hold back!"
Ye Nanxiao glared at Ju Zi. Just a moment ago, they were allies who had sworn an oath with a high five.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Ju Zi with some curiosity. He could sense that this beautiful senior seemed to have a rather unusual relationship with his silly older brother.
Huo Yuhao took out a soul guide recorder from his pocket, tapped it a few times, then put it away and said to Ju Zi, "Hello, senior. I'm a new student. Please take good care of me."
Upon hearing the words "senior sister," Ju Zi smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons. She patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder with her delicate hand and said proudly, "No problem, little junior!"
"Little junior?" Huo Yuhao's lips twitched. He was indeed a junior, but why use "little"?
I'm a real macho man, okay?
Inside the experimental room.
Xuan Ziwen put Ye Nanxiao down, pointed to a ball of scrap iron on the research table, and said, "That ball of iron was a soul tool I've never seen before, but I saw a bit of the technology involved in it in the booklet you gave me. Is Huo Yuhao from the same sect as you?"
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the iron ball on the table, estimated its size, and then understood what kind of hidden weapon Huo Yuhao was making for Xuan Ziwen.
"Yes, we all come from the Tang Clan." Ye Nanxiao reached out and poked at the iron ball a few times, breaking it open and taking a look at it.
"This thing was probably modified by Yuhao himself, so its power is a bit weaker," Ye Nanxiao said.
Xuan Ziwen took a deep breath and said, "No wonder, so you're from the same sect. So, what's the current situation of the Tang Sect?"
He remembered that the Tang Clan had long since declined. Although he grew up in the Sun Moon Empire, he still tried to learn about the situation of his original country because of his parents' ancestral home.
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao immediately became interested. He tossed the iron ball aside and asked, "Teacher Xuan, are you interested in the Tang Sect? As the vice sect leader of the Tang Sect, I can guarantee that you'll get all the meals, accommodation, and research support. The work environment is relaxed, with five social insurances and one housing fund, a 9-to-5 workday, and even meals cooked by a chef!"
Huo Yuhao's culinary skills are now comparable to those of a master chef, yes, no doubt about it.
"Put away your shrewd businessman act. I'm asking you, how many of this type of research do you have—no, how many are there in the Tang Sect?" Xuan Ziwen asked urgently.
As a top-tier Soul Master, Xuan Ziwen has no interest in money or the like. His ambition is to change the world with Soul Tools, to change the way of life for all people, and to let more people realize the convenience of Soul Tools instead of just knowing that Soul Tools are used for weapons.
The booklet Ye Nanxiao gave him only briefly explained some concepts and techniques, but even so, Xuan Ziwen still gained a lot of inspiration from it.
Ye Nanxiao chuckled, his eyes darting around a few times. He took out a thick book from his storage ring, flipped to a page, and waved it in front of Xuan Ziwen.
Xuan Ziwen immediately recognized the picture in the book as the soul tool that Huo Yuhao had just made.
"How about it? There's more than one option here! How about considering joining the Tang Sect? A teacher's status doesn't restrict which sect you can join." Ye Nanxiao said with his standard smile, enticingly.
Xuan Ziwen held up three fingers.
"What did you say? Triple the pay? I misjudged you, Xuan Da-yan! You said yourself that you didn't care about money! I never expected this!" Ye Nanxiao put away his book on hidden weapons and said with a sorrowful expression.
Xuan Ziwen glanced coldly at Ye Nanxiao, who was clutching his chest and feigning heartache, and said, "The treatment Huo Yuhao mentioned just now is at least three times what you said. So, are you planning to rip me off again, Ye Nanxiao?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao's heart skipped a beat. The Tang Sect's benefits had been improved? How come I didn't know? Wait a minute, I'm the vice sect leader in charge of benefits!
Seeing Xuan Ziwen approaching, rubbing his hands together and a chilling look on his face, Ye Nanxiao swallowed hard. "Well, we're all intellectuals, we have principles, right? We'll just talk, not fight!"
The Aodu Chamber of Commerce is located in the newly built Aodu Building.
Li Yuanren stood cautiously to the side, glancing at Ye Nanxiao, who sat in the main seat, from time to time.
Wang Yu placed a cup of hot tea on the table, then stood behind Li Yuanren, head bowed, eyes closed, resting.
Since Li Yuanren became the chairman, Wang Yu was transferred back to Li Yuanren's side and used as his right-hand man.
Li Yuanren wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. For some reason, he felt that his boss seemed a little different today.
His face seems swollen; could it be that the boss has been suffering from internal heat lately?
Rubbing his face, Ye Nanxiao sighed inwardly. Old Xuan was truly a teacher who was good at putting things into practice. He hadn't expected that someone who looked so thin and weak could actually be quite strong when it came to beating people up.
Placing the report on the table, Ye Nanxiao crossed his arms in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Li, can what you've written here prove its authenticity?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanren quickly replied, "I have already sent people to confirm; the Ordinary Alliance truly does have a request!"
Ye Nanxiao rested his forehead on his hands, deep in thought.
The Ordinary Alliance had something to discuss with the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and it was Shangguan Wei'er who personally made the request.
After a short while, Ye Nanxiao asked again, "What else did Shangguan Wei'er say?"
Li Yuanren considered his words carefully before saying, "Shangguan Weier says she wants to see the real master of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce."
After speaking, Li Yuanren lowered his head, waiting for Ye Nanxiao's reply.
"Then go see him, why give me the documents?" Ye Nanxiao said with dissatisfaction.
Li Yuanren's position as president was meant to inform everyone in Mingdu that the Aodu Chamber of Commerce was under his control.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuanren said with a bitter face, "Boss, that woman Shangguan Weier is adamant about your identity, and she even said that if you agree, the Ordinary Alliance will become a major asset under the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. I can't make such a big decision!"
Ye Nanxiao leaned back in his chair, looking at the contents of the report, lost in thought.
"Perhaps, some of our recent transactions with the Ordinary Alliance have made Shangguan Wei'er realize something?" Li Yuanren said cautiously, afraid of displeasing Ye Nanxiao.
He was an exceptionally carefree and relaxed president, not only owning everything in the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, but also showing no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
If he angered Ye Nanxiao, his good days would be over.
Recent transactions? Ye Nanxiao waved his hand, signaling Li Yuanren to bring the ledger.
Li Yuanren took out an account book that was as thick as five fingers from the storage ring on his right index finger and placed it on the table.
Ye Nanxiao quickly flipped through the ledger, browsing its contents.
Fifteen minutes later, Ye Nanxiao closed the ledger.
"Aside from the batch of girls that Orange wanted, there weren't any other strange transactions. Could it be that this is what made Shangguan Wei'er realize something?" Ye Nanxiao thought to himself.
Glancing at Li Yuanren, Ye Nanxiao asked, "Little Li, you're not young anymore, are you married?"
Li Yuanren was slightly taken aback, never expecting Ye Nanxiao to ask such a question. He scratched his head and honestly replied, "Settled? No, I'm only fifty. What's the point of settling down? What good is money compared to a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao sighed; he knew the reason.
Li Yuanren was an extremely good miser; in his eyes, women were not as good as glittering gold soul coins.
No wonder Shangguan Wei'er sensed something was wrong. This woman had been suppressed by Ju Zi with great force recently, and her nerves were already on edge. She wouldn't let go of the slightest whisper.
As Ye Nanxiao tossed the ledger back to Li Yuanren, an idea immediately formed in his mind.
"Tell Shangguan Wei'er that I have granted her request," Ye Nanxiao said slowly.
A bold plan slowly took shape in his mind.
