Chapter 289.
After sending Wang Dust away, Qiu Haoran returned to the elegant room.
He poured himself a fresh cup of spirit tea and pondered while savoring it.
In other people’s eyes, the position of the Northern Mountain Cave Mansion’s Chief Administrator was so honorable, holding the most important cultivation resources of Wanxiu City, it had both face and face.
But he knew his own business, the North Mountain Cave House was not exclusive to one family, but was a common resource for fifty-seven purple mansions, and he was only sitting in this seat as a family representative.
Don’t say one hand to cover the sky, even if the false publicity to make some benefits, but also have to be careful.
So as not to be attacked by others and lose this hard-won position.
In recent years, Qiu Haoran obviously felt less support from the family.
This was because his cultivation realm was stuck at the beginning stage of the Purple Mansion, and he was slow to break through to the fourth layer.
There could be more than one or two ascendants in the Qiu family, and the family’s resources were limited, it was impossible to continuously invest in a Violet Mansion with no bright future.
Qiu Haoran was very clear about this.
Once he lost the support of his family, the position of Northern Mountain Cave Chief was 100% untenable.
In such a situation, Qiu Haoran placed his hopes on Wang Chen, who had just broken the aperture and opened the mansion!
If he could introduce this newly promoted Purple Mansion with Jindan potential into the Qiu family, this credit would be eaten for another ten years.
The most important thing was that with the AoA in the family, the power of speech was bound to increase greatly.
As for how to tie up Wang Dust, Qiu Haoran had long since come up with many ways.
Wealth, beauty, merit, favor ……
No matter how oily Wang Dust was, it was impossible for him to not have a single weakness.
As Qiu Haoran was thinking, a letter crane suddenly flew in through the open window.
Qiu Haoran probed his hand and ingested it, and with a sweep of his divine sense, he gained insight into the contents.
His face instantly became very ugly.
The matter of Wang Chen’s breaking of the orifice and opening of the mansion triggering the heaven and earth anomalies had still spread out.
As the saying goes, paper can’t wrap fire, despite Qiu Haoran’s injunction at that time, the following stewards were not all of them in the same mind as him, and the leak was actually expected.
But in this way, the Qiu family’s recruitment of Wang Dust has a large number of additional variables.
For a Jindan Seed, it was impossible for others to be indifferent, and of the fifty-seven Purple Mansions in Wanxiu City, there were more than one or two families that were equal to or even stronger than the Qiu Family.
It was entirely possible for people to offer better conditions!
Wanting the possibility of being cut off, with Qiu Haoran’s strong will, he couldn’t help but be a little distracted.
After thinking about it, he took out a blank letter crane.
A moment later, Qiu Haoran released this letter crane.
Not long after, Wang Chen, who had just arrived in front of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, received a crane letter from Qiu Haoran.
After reading the contents of the letter, he stroked his chin thoughtfully.
This Qiu Family’s Purple Mansion had raised the stakes again!
As long as Wang Chen joined the Qiu Family, then in addition to the Cultivation Cave Mansion, he would also be able to obtain a residence in the city as well as a store in a prosperous neighborhood.
The residences and stores in the City of Ten Thousand Cultivation were very expensive, and even if he didn’t do business for himself, he could live comfortably in this City of Scattered Cultivation by relying on the rent.
And most importantly, Qiu Haoran promised to open up for Wang Dust after he joined the clan the techniques that had been passed down from generation to generation of the clan!
In other words, as long as Wang Chen nodded his head, everything was at his fingertips!
What was it that made Qiu Haoran so eager?
Wang Chen thought about it, his fingers pinched the crane letter and gently shook it, the paper instantly turned into flying dust.
Qiu family, he would not and could not go.
As the saying goes, if you rely on the mountain to fall, rely on everyone to run, instead of finding a mountain to rely on, it is really better to believe in your own ability and confidence!
When Wang Chen stepped into the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce again, Steward Jin quickly rushed over.
The steward, who had a high status in the Chamber of Commerce, saluted Wang Chuan as soon as he saw him, “Senior Jin Wuling, I’ve seen you, senior!”
Originally, when Wang Chen was still a Qi Practicing Cultivator, he and Wang Chen were on equal footing.
Now that Wang Chuan had advanced to the Purple Mansion, then Steward Jin had to address him as “Senior” and could no longer be so bold.
This has nothing to do with Wang Chen’s age, his cultivation has reached this point, then any qi cultivator will have to be respectful when they see him, otherwise the hat of disrespecting their seniors will be snapped on their heads.
Meanwhile, Steward Jin’s heart was simply rippling.
Fifteen days ago, Wang Chen had taken away from him the two Orifice Breaking Pills that he had ordered half a year ago.
After half a month, Wang Chen had broken through to the Purple Mansion from Qi Practicing Perfection, such natural talent was simply one in a million.
Moreover, observing Wang Chen’s Essence and Spirit external appearance, it was nearly flawless!
“Congratulations senior, the Purple Mansion has passed, and the Golden Dan is within reach!”
“Thank you.”
Wang Chen smiled and said, “Steward Jin, I came over this time because I want to purchase a few sets of feats and spells.”
Steward Jin immediately had someone bring a catalog of merit laws.
A merit law catalog was surprisingly more than half a foot thick!
Fortunately, Wang Chen had long possessed the ability to forget everything, and he memorized the contents in his mind before picking out the few feats he needed.
After some careful thought, Wang Chuan sifted out five merit laws that he needed the most.
The most prominent of them was naturally the Innate Five Elements Technique.
There were also the Cave Truth Technique, Hidden God Technique, Heavy Light Shield Armor, and Air Swiping Technique!
The Cave of Truth Technique was an advanced version of the Spiritual Eye Technique, the Hidden God Technique was an upgrade of the Breath Convergence Technique, and as for the Heavy Light Shield Armor, it was unsurprisingly an advanced version of the Spiritual Light Shield Armor.
As for the Air Skimming Technique, it was an essential skill for Purple Mansion cultivators!
However, when Wang Chen picked out these feats and made inquiries with Steward Jin.
The results surprised Wang Chen.
The Innate Five Elemental Technique alone cost him a sky-high price of thirty-five thousand spirit stones.
And the other several spells all added together.
It also required seventeen thousand spirit stones!
Simply ……
There was no way to say it!
Wang Chen knew that Purple Mansion ranked techniques were much more expensive than Qi Practicing ranked techniques, but he didn’t expect it to be so much more expensive!
He couldn’t help but ask, “Can it be cheaper?”
Steward Jin replied with a smile, “It’s enough if you give fifty thousand spirits!”
Fifty thousand lower spirits, the current Wang Chen definitely couldn’t take it out.
But he still had an Orifice Breaking Pill in his hand that he hadn’t used up.
So Wang Dust proposed a one for five exchange, which meant exchanging one elixir for all five feats!
“No no no, that would be too much of a loss for us!”
Steward Jin shook his head like a rattle drum and refused to agree to the conditions he proposed.
Having no choice, Wang Chen only had to continue bargaining with the other party.
In the end, he exchanged one Orifice Breaking Pill plus three thousand spirit stones for five Jade Slips of Merit Techniques.
Knowledge was priceless, and this gong method was simply heavenly!
At this instant, Wang Chen realized the helplessness of a unsupported Purple Mansion loose cultivator.
Originally, breaking the orifices and opening the mansion required the consumption of a large amount of resources, and after advancing, one had to purchase high-priced techniques.
The spirit stones didn’t fall from the sky, and it wasn’t easy to earn them!
After some maneuvering, his storage bag was emptied.
Despite this, Wang Chen’s determination remained unchanged!
