“Work around the most obstinate prominent families,” Wang Shouzhe suggested. “Your business thrives on harmony and wealth. You still need to give them secret benefits and unite the majority of the prominent families.”

“Brother Qian, you can carefully calculate the big data of the whole situation. How much fertile land do we, Changning Guard, have and how many Insect Masters are available to exterminate the bugs?” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, “Even if my Wang family has an Insect Master, it can currently tend to tens of thousands of acres at most in a season, and in the future, up to a hundred thousand acres. The big picture still relies on the Insecticide Powder.”

“Yeah, right.” Qian Xuean’s eyes flashed brightly, slapping his thigh, “I was blind. Even if the celestial being’s prominent families invite Insect Masters from elsewhere, they still need Insect Masters… Under the big data, Insecticide Powder is still an irreplaceable item. In this way, I have enough confidence.”

“You can hire someone skilled in the Nine Chapters Arithmetic to make a detailed chart with big data. Thus, more than 90% of the prominent families will not dare to blindly follow trends.”

“Wonderful, wonderful.” Qian Xuean repeatedly praised, “This longstanding problem of mine was resolved by Brother Shouzhe in a few words. No wonder you are so respected, Brother Shouzhe, your Wang family is destined to thrive.”

“Brother Qian, it’s just because you are involved in the affair and received threats from the celestial being’s prominent family. It only blurred your sight.” Wang Shouzhe changed the subject, “Now can you give me some information, in terms of the big picture, is this batch of Insecticide Powder high or low in quantity?”

“Of course, it’s not much,” Qian Xuean replied. “Even if the Purple Abode Academic Palace is strong, it’s not easy to hastily improve the new Insecticide Powder and mass-produce it. How could it be excessive?”

“According to the Academic Palace compensation plan, is it buying at 30% of the original price? Then, I, Ping’an Wang, will take the amount needed for my 200,000 acres of fertile land. The original price is 2,000 Qian Gold. The discount price is 600 Qian Gold. I’ll buy it.”

Two hundred thousand acres?

Old Ancestor Longyan cast a different look at Wang Shouzhe, when did my Ping’an Wang family have so much fertile land?

Even if all the fertile lands of Ping’an Town were added up, they wouldn’t account for half of this figure, right?

“What?”

Wang Licui, who was happily eating, also had some confused eyes. Did the Fourth Uncle’s Nine Chapters Arithmetic not work anymore? Or have I, Miss Licui, gone from being poor for eight generations to rich for eight generations?

“Haha, your Nine Chapters Arithmetic isn’t working, Brother. You’ve drunk too much. Where does your Ping’an Wang family have 200,000 acres of fertile land?” Qian Xuean shook his head, laughing.

Exactly, Wang Licui nodded repeatedly. She guessed that her fourth uncle, who had drunk too much Red Flame Rosy Clouds wine, couldn’t even remember how many fertile lands there were in Ping’an Town.

“Your Ping’an Wang Family clearly has 300,000 acres of fertile land.” Qian Xuean corrected seriously. “According to the 30% calculation, your Wang family should pay 900 Qian Gold.”

“What?” Wang Licui’s eyes were round in surprise. This Qian, no, Uncle Qian’s arithmetic is even worse?

“Yes, yes.” Wang Shouzhe slapped his forehead as if realizing it. “Brother Qian, look at my memory. Indeed, it is 300,000 acres of fertile land. Let’s stick to this agreement. Here, Brother, I’ll toast you.”

The two began to cross their cups again.

And then, Wang Licui was stunned. Three hundred thousand acres, our family owns three hundred thousand acres of fertile land.

Wuwuwu~ The elders are all liars. They always fooled Licui, saying the family was very poor, and that good things were to be eaten sparingly.

Now, it’s all out in the open!!!

It turns out that the elders just wanted to hone her, train her, to make her successful.

Now her status is revealed.

I, Miss Licui, really am a super-rich eight-generation heiress! I’m so happy.

Eat, eat, eat~ No need to worry about money anymore.

Eat hard.

Old Ancestor Longyan was also a little dazed. His own Shouzhe and that chubby Qian are clearly fleecing the wool of the Purple Abode Academic Palace, and they are shearing a lot…

As a former core disciple of the Purple Abode Academic Palace, how can he bear it?

But, the Wang family is too poor. If there’s a little to shear, just shear a little. Look at our children, look how hungry our Licui is.

“Hm?”

Old Ancestor Longyan’s brow twitched slightly.

The plates on the table had already been emptied.

When Qian Xuean was just about to serve food, he was stunned to see the empty plates. Then he looked at Wang Licui, his mouth twitching slightly, “Niece Licui, are you full?”

Wang Licui was about to say she wasn’t full, but when she saw the look in her fourth uncle’s eyes, she swallowed and nodded, “Yes, I’m full.” She said this, but her expression and movements were suggesting she wasn’t!

“Good, good, being able to eat is a blessing, this child is blessed.” Qian Xuean called in a young servant, waving his big hand to order seven or eight dishes. Then, he started talking to Wang Shouzhe again.

“Brother Shouzhe, you said Red Crystal Spirit Rice Seeds, or Flame Lotus Seeds, are easy to find.” Qian Xuean frowned slightly. “But the ones I can find are mostly ordinary varieties, and high-yielding quality breeds improved over generations are held by prominent families. They are not willing to let it go. I’m afraid I don’t have enough influence.”

“Ordinary grain is fine, how can my Wang Family dare to hope for exotic species?” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile. “Also, the Array Master needs to be found from a place that’s a few towns away.”

Qian Xuean glanced at Wang Shouzhe suspiciously. After a long time, he sighed, “Brother Shouzhe, you’re lucky.”

“Where, where, since I’ve asked for your help, I won’t hide from you.” Wang Shouzhe said laughingly. “It’s just a small medium-grade fire spirit vein.”

“That’s pretty good. Most Rank 9 families don’t have a small medium-grade spirit vein.” Qian Xuean mused. “You don’t want to publicize it… Alright, I’ll think of a way to find someone from another place to hire an Array Master. If there’s surplus in the future production, my Qian family can also help sell it.”

“Thanks to Brother Qian for this, let me toast you.”

“Please, please, as brothers, we should support each other.”

They clinked glasses together.

Then, Qian Xuean felt the effects of the alcohol, and instinctively picked up some food to suppress his intoxication.

“Huh? It’s all gone?”

He went to pick some more, but again, nothing was left.

“Um, dear niece Lici, have you eaten enough?” Qian Xuean suddenly felt a sense of foreboding that made his heart thump wildly.

“I am full, I am full.” Wang Licui licked her lips, with a look of wanting more.

“Servants, bring more dishes, as the host, it’s my duty to ensure my guests are fed well.”

Half a quarter of an hour later.

“Servants, bring more dishes!”

Another half a quarter of an hour later.

“Brother Qian, that’s enough, enough!”

“Bring the dishes, the good ones! Today, we must make sure our dear niece is full!”

This process continued on and off.

…

The sky was already dark.

“Brother Shouzhe, I will take my leave for today… It must not be easy for your family to raise this child…” Qian Xuean said with an indescribable expression on his face.

“Thank you, Brother Qian for the feast, take care on your journey home…” Wang Shouzhe also had an indescribable expression on his face.

…

After Qian Xuean left.

Wang Shouzhe helped Wang Licui onto the carriage. The girl was already too full to walk properly.

“Fourth Uncle, it’s not my fault… I kept saying I was full, but Uncle Qian was too enthusiastic.”

“Hehe.” Wang Shouzhe coldly chuckled a few times, not wanting to entertain her, “Wang Yong, go to the other house.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Wang Yong drove the carriage towards the other house.

Not yet halfway there, Wang Licui looked out of the carriage curtain excitedly, “Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, the city is really lively. There is still food at this hour, let’s go and see…”

Wang Shouzhe’s eyelids twitched, thinking to himself, can this child still be kept?

…

Qian Xuean wobbled back to his mansion and plopped down on the Taishi chair in his study, still feeling drastically shocked.

Three hundred and thirty Qian Gold!

He never dreamt that a meal would cost him three hundred and thirty Qian Gold. His annual allowance from his family was only a total of five hundred Qian Gold.

Each time he thought about his niece Licui’s satisfied look as she smacked her lips, he couldn’t help but shudder.

Let it be!

He must find a way to make some extra money, or else, he won’t be able to survive.

But to start profiteering just after becoming the Deputy Shopkeeper…..isn’t that too much?

Suddenly.

He remembered the heavy congratulatory package Brother Shouzhe gave him before leaving.

When he opened it, he found five radiant Spirit Stones!

Qian Xuean’s tears almost fell out in an instant.

As expected of Brother Shouzhe, so generous! It is truly worth it to have him as my brother.
