"Hmph, drink like this again. Do you really think that you have built a foundation and can do whatever you want? ”

When Shu Si returned home, he seemed to hear that familiar voice in his ears, saying unfamiliar words. Suddenly my heart warmed.

But he soon realizes that this qiē is nothing more than a side effect of the famous wine's "drunken life and dream death"—a true projection of people's deepest desires.

In fact, however, Dead Face never said anything of concern to him, not even the concern hidden under the rebuke.

He is always as cold as ice, even if they are called master and apprentice, they can't see half of the warmth of master and apprentice.

But Shu Si is still grateful to the dead face, there is no dead face, what kind of Shu boss is he Shu Si? It's just a prodigal person who can be seen everywhere in the alleys of the market. And the fate of the prodigal son, he has seen a lot when he was a child - most of them died without a place to be buried, exposing the corpses in the wilderness.

However, now he is the leader of several major trading houses in Qunxian City, and a veritable nobleman.

Shu Si knew that this qiē was a gift from a dead man's face, and without him, he might not even be able to operate a small shop, let alone seize a few key business opportunities and make a lot of profits, so as to become one of the upper echelons of the business world, and be drunk with money.

In addition, the dead face also taught him the cultivation exercises, and with the power of the elixir, he had already established a foundation in a few months of cultivation, which made many people praise him for his outstanding talent and amazing talent - nonsense, how can he have any talent to speak of?

However, in the final analysis, he also doesn't have much affection for dead faces.

At first, when I was still huddled in the small shop, I was grateful to him in my heart, but the bigger the business became, the less gratitude I felt in my heart, but the confusion and panic grew deeper and deeper.

Dead Face...... Why be so nice to yourself?

There may be hate for no reason, but there is no love for no reason. When a person is gracious to the other, there will always be something to ask for. Even if the rich give alms to beggars, it is for the sake of good name and self-satisfaction - of course, there is nothing wrong with that, but there must always be a reason for a good deed.

This point touched him most deeply at today's banquet.

When the wine was drunk, several wealthy businessmen at the table sighed that the old horse was righteous and kind, and he missed the old feelings. In the past, he and Wen Fangbo were just friends of water, so they reached out to help him when he was most embarrassed and pulled him out of the abyss.

But under the wine table, a businessman who was familiar with the situation privately told Shu Si: Lao Ma is indeed equivalent to saving Wen Fangbo's life, but it is by no means a nostalgia for the old feelings.

Lao Ma wants Wen Fangbo's two daughters.

Of course, this is a reasonable request, the two daughters of the old Wen family are like flowers, who doesn't want it? It's a pity that they got married before, and they were allowed to be immortal cultivators of famous families. Although the old horse is not afraid, there is no need to make trouble for himself. But now that the marriage contract has been dissolved, the old horse has made a move, like pushing a boat down the river.

Does this count as taking advantage of others' danger? Maybe yes, but it is also a fact that the old horse saves people from fire and water, and in the eyes of businessmen, compared to the two daughters, the huge family business is obviously more valuable. So everyone had some discussions in private, but they also admitted that Lao Ma had done good deeds, which was indeed righteous and kind.

Shu Si listened to it but had mixed feelings: This is righteousness and kindness?

Maybe he was born at the bottom, and his values are different from theirs after all, even if he is used to stealing chickens and touching dogs, and treacherous prodigals, he will not feel that this is righteous and kind...... However, it also made Shu Si understand a truth more.

There is no such thing as love without a cause.

The dead man's face gave himself a qiē, what the hell did he want? Draw like an old horse? Ha, if the dead face is really interested, it doesn't hurt to give it yourself, but it's a pity that Shu Si is self-aware, and he really doesn't have that condition.

Is it just because he has received a gift from Wang Lu?

Even if the dead face is Wang Lu's diehard, it won't get things to this point...... If he stood in front of the stage by himself, with his achievements today, I am afraid that it would not be difficult to meet Wang Lu in person, so why should he push everything to himself?

The more he thought about it, the more worried Shu Si became. A dead man's face can give a qiē, and of course he has a way to take it away.

And himself, can he still adapt to the life of losing a qiē? Accustomed to fine clothes and food, accustomed to the glamorous and decent people before and after, especially ...... In the past few days, I have also met a lot of rich daughters, and gradually fell into the gentle township. Let yourself suddenly lose this qiē word......

Just as he was thinking about it, a cold snort sounded in his ears.

In an instant, Shu Si regained consciousness, the distracting thoughts in his mind disappeared, and at the same time, a smile appeared on his face.

"Haha, dead face, I ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was unexpectedly interrupted: "Starting tomorrow, we will operate according to the new plan." ”

Shu Si was taken aback: "There is a new plan again?" It's changing too fast......" He walked into the room with a few steps, and sure enough, he saw a new booklet on the table, and when he looked at it, he was surprised again.

"This ...... The rest is fine, what's the matter? Increase investment in Luo Xiao? Didn't you give up on him a long time ago, why did you suddenly think of him again at this time? There's no value at all! And even if you are optimistic about him again, but now it will change immediately, and it seems too eager for quick success, you ......"

Shu Si gushed a series of questions, but unfortunately the dead face refused to answer a single word.

"Alas...... Forget it, whatever you say, I'll let my men do it early tomorrow morning. ”

However, at this moment, the voice of the dead man's face came again.

"You go and meet him in person."

"Huh?" Shu Si was surprised, "What the hell are you doing with a dead face?" Do you want me to do this kind of thing in person? Luo Xiao has already been angry, so he doesn't need me, right? Well, even if he is too angry, he is also a disciple of the Four Phases True Monarch, and I can't compare with him in terms of status, but it is too sudden to rush to meet him...... Okay, I'll just go. ”

Knowing that the dead face decided the matter is not to be ignored, Shu Si nagged for a while and then shut up.

Whatever he asks him to do, he just does it. The grasp of the previous key business opportunities was also done in this unbelievable situation.

After dealing with the sudden attack of the dead man's face, Shu Si climbed into bed with the smell of alcohol.

Before falling asleep, my heart was slightly settled.

Although I was assigned a difficult task, I ...... It's always more reassuring than before, giving yourself a qiē without saying a word.

――

"Oh? Work with me? ”

At the residence of the Four Phases Sect, Luo Xiao was a little surprised, and looked at the distinguished guests who came to visit with some playfulness.

Shu Si.

Although he had only just stepped into the cultivation world and had not yet completely faded into the mortal world in the eyes of many people, this young man had gradually become an important member of the Immortal City.

Of course, when it comes to status, Shu Si is far from being able to compare with himself. But for these businessmen, it's the value of the investment, not the status.

And when it comes to investment value, what is it worth him to visit in person?

To be honest, even Shu Si doesn't understand this question. The dead face asked him to come over, but he didn't explain what exactly he was going to do, which was really confusing.

So, just improvise.

"Yes, cooperation."

Shu Si said as he racked his brains to think about how to cooperate with this bald head.

Born in Huayan Sect, he gradually showed his talent from obscurity and was full of genius. Then he was favored by the Four Phases True Monarch and accepted as a true biography, and had several fights with Wang Lu, although he fell behind, he showed excellent strength, and then ......

Then, it doesn't seem like there's much to mention. I was expecting him to make his mark in the main match of the Immortals Competition, but the format of the game changed, and he lost the opportunity to play, which is said to be frustrating.

Wait, if that's the case......

A flash of inspiration flashed in Shu Si's mind, and one thing came to mind.

"I want to work with you and get you back on the pitch."

"Oh?" Luo Xiao seemed to be interested, "Why do you want to do this?" ”

Shu Si said: "Because you have the value of investment, no matter what others say, after all, you are the most outstanding member of the same generation of disciples, and you are also a legendary member. And you have an advantage that others can't match, compared to those geniuses who have been favored by famous families since childhood, and focused on cultivating. Your rise is more dependent on your own efforts, which is actually more resonant with ordinary people, and ......"

Luo Xiao smiled when he heard this: "And now that the investment is in me, the cost is relatively low, right?" ”

Shu Si said: "...... Please understand, I am a businessman after all. ”

"It doesn't matter." Luo Xiao waved his hand, not caring about his low cost now.

However, just when Shu Si thought that he was appropriate, he heard Luo Xiao say: "Thank you very much for the importance you have for me, but unfortunately I have no intention of participating in the Immortals Contest now." ”

Shu Si was stunned when he heard this: "Huh? ”

"I've had some important things to do lately, and I'm going to be shut down soon, so I'm afraid I won't be able to work with people. So, thank you for being here today, but unfortunately I can only decline your invitation. ”

After speaking, Luo Xiao got up to see off the guests, but he didn't give Shu Si a chance to react.

――

"You mean, he claims to have something important to do, and he can't participate in the Immortals Competition?"

Shu Si said helplessly: "Yes, and after speaking, he drove people away, and didn't give me a chance to play at all." ”

"Hmm......"

Inside the house, the face of the dead man rarely fell into deep thought.

Shu Si's heart suddenly hung in the air, the matter has come to this point, is the dead face still unwilling to give up?

How tempting is this Luo Xiao, worthy of your persistence?

"I said, since everyone is so uncooperative, we don't need to stutter with a dead face, right? If nothing else, wouldn't it be strange for outsiders to see it? ”

"So you have to not only continue to invite in the future, but also invite with great fanfare, so that everyone in the Immortal City will know about it. As for the reason, it should be considered to be a thousand dollars to buy horse bones and buy people's hearts. You are considered a rookie in the City of Immortals, so it is reasonable to invite people to buy people's hearts with this move. ”

"Huh? Dead face, who are you Luo Xiao? You're too nice to him, aren't you?! ”

"Little mouse, after this incident, I will give you freedom."

"I ......" Shu Si was stunned, "You, what did you say?" ”

"After this incident, I will travel far away, and I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to see each other for decades. So you don't have to worry anymore that I'm going to take away all of you. ”

Shu Si was taken aback: "What nonsense are you talking about?" All of my qiē are given by you, you want to take it out at any time, if I frown halfway, the sky will thunder! Out of one's wits! ”

"Oh, that's a nice thing to say, are you really willing to be glorious and rich today? Willing to give up those gentle girls? ”

“…… Well, even if I was a little reluctant, I never wanted you to go! What would I do without you? How can I manage such a big business bank with this little ability? ”

"Except for a few key decisions, I never told you what to do, you did a good job, and then you can stay at ease and live a prosperous life."

Shu Si was stunned for a moment, and somehow felt more and more panicked in his heart.

When the dead man's face is there, he respects him and fears him, but if the dead man's face is gone, the fear in his heart will only be stronger.

"But, what about my practice?"

"Heh, you've never liked to practice."

Shu Si suddenly seemed to be choked.

“…… Really leaving? ”

"After this incident, you and I separated. So, do it well. ”

Shu Si was silent for a long time.

"I don't know exactly what you want to do, but since it's your request, I'll do it anyway."
