After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 126

Chapter 126: Let’s Go, Let’s Rip Him Off
Upon hearing his words, Mu Xuan was surprised. “Zhouzhou, you know him?”

“Yes, yes!” she said excitedly. He was a customer, after all, and she remembered him well. There weren’t many people in the world who were both foolish and wealthy.

Mu Xuan narrowed his eyes when he heard that Cen Zhiyuan had accused her of hurting people without reason. But then he saw the little girl’s face light up with joy at the thought of making a fortune, and he couldn’t help but smile.

Of course, Zhouzhou’s greatest wish was to become rich. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have adopted the name Qin Caicai. He chuckled and looked down at her. “Do you want to go out and see him again?”

Zhouzhou also looked at him, and the two of them shared a grin. They looked like two honest and simple people, but they weren’t con artists. Zhouzhou’s products were top-notch, and she always delivered on her promises. She was an honest businesswoman!

She even gave him a discount.

Zhouzhou waved her little hand, full of pride and courage. “Let’s go!”

She loved foolish and wealthy people!

In the courtyard, Cen Zhiyuan was still unaware that he had caught someone’s attention and was being watched. He was talking to the people around him.

Ninth Bureau was a secretive organization that few people knew about. But the members of Ninth Bureau could appear in public as practitioners of the Mystery Sects, and they could make some extra money. The higher-ups didn’t care, and they even tacitly approved.

They say there are two groups of people that you should never offend: doctors and Heaven Masters. If you offend them, you might die without knowing how.

Cen Zhiyuan happened to be both, and he had become a popular figure in the eyes of the people. Even the wealthy and powerful people who came to Mu’s banquet today treated him with great respect.

As soon as he appeared, someone came over and greeted him. “Master Cen, do you have any new talismans?”

Cen Zhiyuan nodded slightly, maintaining his arrogance. “Yes, I have improved the Peace Talisman. Mr. Wang, would you like to see it?”

Wang’s eyes lit up at the offer. Everyone knew that Cen Zhiyuan was a genius at drawing talismans. This was an improved version, so it must be even more effective.

Everyone has their own disasters and difficulties, and they all want to have a Peace Talisman.

Cen Zhiyuan took out a talisman from his sleeve and was about to hand it over when he saw a small and large figure walking towards him. Suddenly, his eyelids twitched.

It was the little girl who sold him the talismans.

This improved version of the Peace Talisman was not his creation. He copied it from a talisman he bought and had practiced drawing it hundreds of times to learn how to draw it. Fortunately, the talisman was very effective, and he didn’t regret spending ten million on it.

Now that he saw Zhouzhou, his surprise gradually subsided. After all, he realized that she was just an ordinary person. He handed her the talisman calmly.

Mu Xuan smiled and looked at him. “Master Cen, how have you been?”

Cen Zhiyuan was from the Baiyun Temple and was not on good terms with the Sanqing Temple. He raised his chin arrogantly and glanced at him. He simply replied with a cold “hmm.”

Seeing his reaction, Zhouzhou clenched her little fists, feeling unhappy.

Mu Xuan comforted her by pinching her chubby little hand and indicating that she should not be hasty. There would be more opportunities in the future to deal with him.

He looked at the talisman in his hand and said in surprise, “Is this a new talisman that Master Cen has researched? You drew it so well. It seems that its effect is ten times stronger than the previous Peace Talisman.”

So powerful?

Mr. Wang quickly grabbed the talisman and asked, “Master Cen, how much is it for one talisman? I’ll buy it.”

To his surprise, he had good eyesight.

Cen Zhiyuan looked at him approvingly and said, “This talisman is ten times more effective than the ordinary one, but I won’t charge you that much. Since you’re the first one to buy this talisman, it’s fate. Just give me five million.”

Five million!

Zhouzhou’s eyes widened. She calculated in her chubby fingers and realized that she could break even by selling only two talismans.

What a shrewd businessman!

He was even more cunning than her!

The little girl puffed her cheeks and looked at Mu Xuan beside her. Her eyes rolled, and she said suddenly, “Big brother, I also have this talisman. Do you want it? I can sell it to you.”

As she spoke, she took out a stack of talismans from her pocket and blinked innocently. “My dad bought it for me. He said it can keep us safe. Do you want it?”

When Cen Zhiyuan heard this, he immediately came forward and took the talisman from the little girl’s hand. He said, “Little girl, not everything can be called a talisman. Let me take a look at it first.”

He opened the talisman, and sure enough, it was a Safery Talisman. He calmly put it together and said, “Your talisman is missing something. Let me fix it for you. Come with me.”

Mu Xuan pretended to be dissatisfied and said, “Master Cen, I was here first.”

Cen Zhiyuan looked at him disdainfully and said, “Do you know how to fix it? If the people from Sanqing Temple had any skills, they would not have ended up in this situation.”

He sneered, indicating that Mu Xuan was nothing but a vase. He was a smart-looking man who was easily fooled by Li Yuanming’s words.

Cen Zhiyuan did not take him seriously.

When the little girl heard this, she pretended to be surprised and said, “Thank you, Grandpa!”

Cen Zhiyuan nodded and said, “Come on, little girl.”

“Really? Thank you, Grandpa!” The little girl acted as if she got a great deal and followed Cen Zhiyuan.

As they passed by Qin Lie, he understood everything and smiled knowingly. He nodded slightly, indicating that he would not expose them.

The little girl smiled and blinked at him as she passed by.

They went to collect the money.

As soon as they left, Mu Xuan’s expression changed. He curved his lips and lazily stretched, saying that having a hobby like selling talismans was not a bad thing, especially when it was the enemy’s money.

He looked forward to the day when he could earn enough money to rebuild and expand the Taoist temple, and even take on more apprentices. He imagined how angry Cen Zhiyuan would be when he found out.

Meanwhile, in a secluded corner, Cen Zhiyuan approached a young girl and asked, “Little girl, I’ll buy all the talismans in your hand. Give me your price.”

“Huh?” Zhouzhou looked at him in confusion and asked, “But didn’t Grandpa say there was something wrong with my talismans?”

“There is, but it can be fixed. These talismans are not useful to you, so it’s better to sell them to me,” he explained.

Cen Zhiyuan was known for his persuasive words, and he took advantage of the fact that Zhouzhou was just a child. He wanted to win the upcoming competition against Mu Xuan at all costs.

Zhouzhou glanced sideways, then took out a bundle of talismans from her bag, saying, “These are all bought by my dad, and they are expensive. Dad told me not to give them to anyone.”

“I’ll pay double the price,” Cen Zhiyuan offered.

As long as he won the competition, he thought he could afford it.

“Two hundred million it is,” he thought, as he admired the profits he could make by selling expensive talismans.

Zhouzhou counted the talismans and said, “This Peace Talisman was three million, the Protection Talisman was three million, the Earth-Traveling Talisman was five million, the Invisibility Talisman was five million, the Defensive Talisman was ten million…”

Cen Zhiyuan’s frowned as he listened to the expensive prices.

“These are too expensive,” he complained.

“Well, that’s how much the seller charged. Do you still want them? Otherwise, I’ll sell them to that big brother,” Zhouzhou threatened, ready to take back the talismans.

Cen Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and said, “Yes, I want them.”

He handed over his credit card, feeling the pain of losing so much money.

While Zhouzhou was about to swipe his card, a distant scream caught their attention. They could hear Mu Xuan shouting “Grandpa” in a panicked tone.

Zhouzhou instinctively calculated her earnings and her face changed.

Something was wrong!

She counted the money, then glanced at Cen Zhiyuan calmly.

“OK, you can get your talismans now. Do you want anything else?” she said, trying to hide her worry.

But then she heard another cry for help, and her face turned pale.
