My Cultivation Prowess Peaks after I Buried the Great Emperor's Corpse

Chapter 180 - 180 A Billion Dollar Business Deal!

180 A Billion Dollar Business Deal!

“Old lunatic, with your experience in grave-digging, do you think this ancestral grave of the Panlong family has any potential?”

After pondering for a while, Lin Wudao asked curiously.

“Oh, potential, huh… There is definitely still some.”

The Mad Daoist nodded slightly.

!!

“The Panlong Family has been around for more than 5,800 years. Be it in terms of strength or heritage, they are much stronger than the Heishui Family. In particular, it is said that many of the ancestors of the Panlong family were Mystic Heaven realm powerhouses. There should be quite a number of good things in their ancestral graves.”

At this point, the Mad Daoist’s eyes immediately revealed a look of greed.

Hearing his words, Lin Wudao was also very interested.

In addition, the Mad Daoist’s words also reminded him that the corpses of Yan Zhenshan and the others from the Shangqing Sword Palace were still in the system space. He had almost forgotten to collect them.

“Let’s find an opportunity to collect them together…” He thought to himself.

Then, the three of them began to plan carefully again, having designs on the ancestral grave of the Panlong family.

Thump, thump, thump!

Just as they were discussing, there was a knock on the door.

The three immediately frowned.

“Who is it?” Qin Daofu roared.

“Boss Qin, it’s me. The person who wants to dig up the ancestral graves…”

Outside the door, a low voice sounded.

Hearing this, whether it was Qin Daofu, the Mad Daoist, or Lin Wudao, all of them looked at each other and revealed mysterious smiles.

The person who came was Zhao Zichen.

“He came really quickly. Qin Daofu, I’m guessing that Zhao Zichen definitely didn’t come to find you at this time about the matter of digging up the ancestral grave. He might have something else that he needs your help with. You talk to him first. Brother Ren and I will watch from the side,” The Mad Daoist said in a low voice.

After saying that, he and Lin Wudao immediately each crushed an invisibility jade talisman and hid in the void.

At the same time, Qin Daofu put away all the cups on the table and wiped away all traces of others’ presence before opening the door as if nothing had happened.

A mysterious cloaked man was standing outside.

“So it’s you. Come in.”

Even though Zhao Zichen had used the Great Shapeshifting Technique to change his body and appearance, Qin Daofu was still able to easily identify him.

In their line of work, it was impossible to not have some insight and ability.

“Young Master Zhao, didn’t we agree to meet again in three days? Is there anything else you need since you came looking for me?” Qin Daofu asked calmly.

Hearing this, Zhao Zichen didn’t speak immediately.

He first looked up and sized up the courtyard. After confirming that there was no one else present, he nodded.

“Indeed. I came here this time because I have a big business deal to discuss with Boss Qin.”

Big business deal?

When these words were said, not only Qin Daofu, but Lin Wudao and the Mad Daoist, who were hiding in the darkness, were also curious.

“What big business deal? Tell me about it. My asking price is very high. If it’s less than 100 million, Young Master Zhao should save the effort of opening your mouth to avoid wasting everyone’s time.”

Qin Daofu was as domineering as ever.

However, Zhao Zichen did not get angry after hearing this. Instead, he smiled.

“Don’t worry, Boss Qin. This business deal is definitely worth more than 100 million,” Zhao Zichen said mysteriously.

Oh?

In an instant, Qin Daofu’s curiosity was completely piqued.

“What is it?”

“Oh, it’s like this. Recently, the Panlong family and the Beihai family are preparing to build connections through marriage to strengthen and consolidate the relationship between the two families. According to what I know, the marriage partners are the eldest son of the Panlong Family, Zhao Qinlong, and the eldest daughter of the Beihai family, Qi Qingyu. If nothing unexpected happens, the people from the Beihai family will arrive at the Panlong Ancient City early tomorrow morning. At that time, the two families will hold an engagement ceremony,” Zhao Zichen said slowly.

Hmm? A marriage alliance between aristocratic families?

Qin Daofu’s expression did not change when he heard this. Marriage alliances between aristocratic families were very normal.

“What do you want me to do for you?”

“Hehe, Boss Qin, you’re not working for me, you’re working for yourself. I’ve said it before. This big business deal is between you and me, and we’ll each get what we need. As for the specifics, it’s very simple. After the engagement ceremony between the Beihai family and the Panlong family is over, Boss Qin only needs to kidnap Qi Qingyu to demand a ransom from them.”

Zhao Zichen told him his plan.

Hmm? He wanted him to kidnap a lady?

Qin Daofu was slightly startled.

“You mean to kidnap Qi Qingyu and ask for ransom from the Panlong family and Beihai family through her?”

“Exactly. The Panlong family and the Beihai family both have strong foundations. Qi Qingyu’s identity isn’t simple either. As long as we kidnap her, we’ll definitely get a ransom. Her value is definitely more than 100 million. Moreover, this is only the first step.”

At this point, Zhao Zichen’s face revealed an even more mysterious smile.

“You have a second step?”

“Of course. In this world, it’s really too difficult to make money. Without some thoughts and methods, it definitely won’t work.”

“Then… What’s the second step?” Qin Daofu asked curiously.

“Well, some secrets cannot be revealed. Let’s kidnap Qi Qingyu first.”

Zhao Zichen was tight-lipped and didn’t seem willing to say much.

...

Seeing this, Qin Daofu tactfully did not ask any further.

Soon after, He pretended to be deep in thought.

“According to your plan, how much ransom do you plan to ask them for?”

“One billion medium-grade spiritual stones.”

“That many?”

“Is it many? I don’t think so.”

“One billion medium-grade spiritual stones is not a small amount. The Panlong family and Beihai family will probably have to hurt a little to take it out, right?” Qin Daofu asked curiously.

Zhao Zichen shook his head.

“It’s just one billion medium-grade spiritual stones. For the Panlong family and Beihai family, which have been hidden factions for more than five thousand years, it’s not even a big deal. If we asked for one billion high-grade spiritual stones, then they really can’t afford it.”

He chuckled.

After saying that, his gaze landed on Qin Daofu again.

...

“How is it, Boss Qin? Are you interested in this business?”

“I am. What kind of powerhouses do the Panlong family and Beihai family have?”

“Oh, the Panlong family has an old ancestor at the final stage of the Heavenly Cycle realm. The rest of the patriarchs are all at the early stage of the Heavenly Cycle realm. As for the Beihai family, they should be sending a patriarch over this time. With Boss Qin’s strength, you can surely suppress them all,” Zhao Zichen said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Qin Daofu nodded.

“Alright, I’ll accept this business.”

“In that case, I’ll wait for Boss Qin’s good news tomorrow. After the deed is done, let’s meet up at the Broken Dragon Ridge outside the Panlong Ancient City.”

After saying that, Zhao Zichen left a million medium-grade spiritual stones as a deposit, then turned around and left the Myth Inn.

Whoosh!

When he was far away, the Mad Daoist and Lin Wudao reappeared.

“Tsk tsk, this brat Zhao Zichen is truly insane. To think he wouldn’t even let his own family off. The Panlong family must truly be unlucky to have produced such a descendant,” The Mad Daoist clicked his tongue and laughed strangely.

“What do you think is the second step of that kid’s plan?” At this moment, Qin Daofu sipped his tea and said.

“Well, it’s hard to say, but it’s definitely related to Qi Qingyu from the Beihai family. Based on my many years of life experience, Zhao Zichen will most likely accept the ransom and then go back on his word.”

Go back on his word?

Qin Daofu was somewhat puzzled.

He didn’t seem to understand the meaning of the Mad Daoist’s words.

“What the old lunatic means is that Zhao Zichen won’t return Qi Qingyu after collecting the ransom. He might use Qi Qingyu again to do something else and gain more benefits,” At this moment, Lin Wudao continued.

“If that’s the case, Zhao Zichen is really shameless. If it was my son, I would definitely beat him to death,” Qin Daofu snorted.

“Hey, why do you care so much? Either way, this is someone else’s business. You’re just doing things for money. Don’t worry about anything else.”

“That’s true,” Qin Daofu smacked his lips and agreed.

“Brother Ren, let’s just wait for tomorrow’s show. Zhao Zichen is really a talent.”

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

…

Soon after, they chatted for a while before Lin Wudao left.

After he found Yin Siming and Li Zangtian, he took out the corpses of Yan Zhenshan, Lin Jiu, and the rest and placed them into the heaven burial bronze coffin.
