Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Chapter 124 Growth of Spiritual Medicine

Just as he reached the yard and hadn't yet taken a good look around, his phone suddenly rang.

Ye Ling took out his mobile to look, and it was an unfamiliar number.

He answered directly and heard from the other side, "Hello, is this Mr. Ye Ling?"

Ye Ling said, "Speaking."

"Ah, hello, I am the branch manager of Huaxia Bank in Donghai City; my name is Qu Yishan." The other party said.

"Bank manager?"

Ye Ling was taken aback, "What can I do for you?"

"It's like this."

Qu Yishan coughed once and said with a laugh, "Recently, Mr. Ye, the funds in your Huaxia Bank account have been very substantial. Considering the increase in cyber thefts these days, I suggest that you should deposit these funds in a fixed account. Otherwise, it might attract the attention of some cyber theft gangs!"

"Haven't I already deposited the money into a bank card?" Ye Ling said.

"The account you have is a demand deposit, and the bank will not be responsible if anything goes wrong."

Qu Yishan said, "But if it's a fixed deposit, our bank will manage it strictly, adding the highest level of firewalls. By doing this, your capital will be much safer."

Ye Ling seemed to understand; they wanted him to make a fixed deposit!

He hadn't browsed Baidu for nothing.

For someone like Ye Ling who has tens of billions at his disposal, depositing in a bank would definitely impact the bank's performance and enhance the bank's financial business.

In turn, the management, including the bank's manager, would receive a high year-end bonus due to the outstanding performance, and might even be promoted.

Because that would be a testament to their working capability.

In reality, genuine wealthy people usually do not just deposit money in the bank.

The shrewder rich folks would use the money for investments or high-interest loans, deeming the bank's interest insignificant.

Some of the more perspicacious ones would not only refrain from depositing but also take out a loan, creating a cash flow in the bank.

Such actions have their pros and cons. The money deposited in the bank gets used by the bank to make more money, so it can be better not to deposit it, but instead use the bank's money to earn more.

Of course, the general public, like the ordinary folks who simply want a peaceful life, provide the bulk of the bank's capital reserve.

"So, may I ask where you reside, Mr. Ye? If it's convenient for you, I could make a visit tonight."

Qu Yishan thought Ye Ling was hesitating since he was silent.

Ye Ling laughed, "I'm free tonight; I live at XXXX. If Manager Qu is free, how about coming over for dinner?"

"There's no need for dinner; I was planning to invite you to one."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Qu Yishan finally hung up the phone.

If it were smaller amounts of money, like tens of thousands, a hundred thousand, or even several hundred thousand, it would be fine.

But when it comes to millions, Qu Yishan, as the bank manager, had to make this call, especially for a 'billionaire' like Ye Ling.

"Now I'm a tycoon, too." Ye Ling shook his head with a smile.

Arriving in the yard, Ye Ling immediately noticed the plants.

These plants were the Spiritual Medicines he had planted before.

At the time of planting, they were all dried up and nearly depleted of nutrients.

But now, with the influence of the Spirit Gathering Array, these Spiritual Medicines had grown significantly in just a few days; this rate of growth had left Ye Ling very satisfied.

"Hmm, the Spiritual Energy isn't too bad," Ye Ling mumbled to himself.

Ordinary people could only feel the freshness of the air in the yard, feeling refreshed after breathing it.

Only True Cultivators could sense the thick Spiritual Energy emanating from these Spiritual Medicines.

"What a pity, these are just some ordinary seeds. If only there were a few spiritual medicine seeds," Ye Ling sighed.

It was incredibly difficult to find spiritual medicine seeds on Earth.

Calculating the time, these spiritual medicines, given their current growth rate, would be ready for harvesting in just about four or five more days.

After watching for a while longer, Ye Ling finally returned to the living room.

He pulled out his phone and gave Liu Qiao'er a call.

"Wifey, I'm back."

"You're back?!"

Liu Qiao'er immediately said with surprise, "That was quick! Didn't you spend more time with Auntie at home?"

"My mom came as well."

"..."

The conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are the hardest to deal with, especially when living together. Ye Ling felt that this was what Liu Qiao'er was considering now.

"Alright then, I was planning on working overtime tonight, but in this case, I'll come home early to welcome Auntie."

Liu Qiao'er said, "We can't eat at home, can we? Which restaurant should we go to? I'll make a reservation online or give them a call right away."

"You're treating?"

"Yes, I'm treating, you're paying," she replied.

Ye Ling: "..."

"Actually, my mom still prefers eating at home. It might not sit well with her to go to a big restaurant the first time she visits. Let's talk about it when you get back."

"Stingy, you can't even afford to take your mom for a meal at a five-star hotel?"

"I'm afraid you'll eat too much and leave me broke!"

"Tch~" Stay updated via M V L

After hanging up the phone, the corners of Ye Ling's mouth couldn't help but curl up.

He still felt that talking to Liu Qiao'er was effortless, but with Shen Yuexin...

Better not to mention it.

"Mom, let's go. I'll take you for a walk nearby to get familiar with the area," Ye Ling said.

Wang Shufen waved her hand, "No need, my darling son is so busy with tight schedules and business, don't waste it on me. Just tell me about it, I'll remember. As for you, just get back to your work."

Ye Ling thought to himself that his mom was truly considerate; he indeed had matters to attend to.

"This tragic former Ye Ling..."

Ye Ling smacked his lips, lamenting how his predecessor had lost not only a great beauty like Lin Yuqing, but also a good mother like Wang Shufen.

Speaking of Lin Yuqing, Ye Ling smacked his forehead—wasn't that girl waiting for him to take her shopping?

She was the first one to open her heart to him after he arrived on Earth, and Ye Ling felt he couldn't let her down.

Well, that was a bit of a stretch; he just wanted to win over the beautiful Lin Yuqing.

"Alright then."

Ye Ling informed Wang Shufen about the surroundings, such as where the market was, where the supermarket was, where there were small diners, big restaurants, and so on, and then he gave her his phone number.

Wang Shufen did have a mobile phone, but it was an old-fashioned type. She wouldn't know how to use these new touchscreen smartphones that are commonplace now.

After saying all this, he got in his car and drove straight away from the villa.

"Lin Hua, I warned you before, but not only did you not listen, you even sent an assassin to kill me? Heh..."
