Chapter 160: Master Lang’s amazing miracle
Translator: 549690339
Shen lang opened Xu Qianqian’s Secret letter first, and he felt a sense of resentment.
“I’ve been sweeping the floor for a month. Can you imagine that there are more than a dozen beautiful women sweeping the floor in a small courtyard? A life where they would scheme against each other for a Fallen Leaf? Chou Yao ‘er is a devil, a devil that won’t listen to anything.”
Shen lang could not help but smile. To be able to make a cunning and vicious woman like Xu Qianqian suffer, it seemed like this Chou Yao ‘er was indeed extraordinary.
However, Shen lang could tell that those who were talented in martial arts were more or less weird and different from ordinary people.
He continued to read the letter.
“I’ve been in raging tide city for almost two months. At first, my honey trap failed, she doesn’t like women at all. I can’t tell that she likes men. She has killed at least five thousand men with her own hands.”
Shen Lang’s neck shivered.
“Chou Yao ‘er’s Castle had a few hundred beautiful women, and they were all pitiful women who were saved by her. They all had a tragic past! However, there must be something detestable about the pitiful. These are all b * tches, including me. ”
This letter was really filled with resentment.
“You can’t even imagine how serious the infighting and scheming in this Castle is, and how strict the hierarchy is. I’ve been here for two months, but I’m not qualified at all. I also have no way of coming into contact with Chou Yao ‘er. I’m more than four levels away from her level.”
above me is the little leader of the yard cleaners, the leader of all the female cleaners in the castle, the head chief who is in charge of all the maids in the castle, and finally, Chou Yao ‘er’s personal maid.
even though I don’t know why you wanted me to hide beside Chou Yao ‘er, it means that I have to at least become her personal maid. I have never thought that I, the third most talented and beautiful woman in Nujiang County, would have to fight for the position of a personal maid. The ups and downs of life are really too exciting.
Chou Yao ‘er’s personal maid is called Lu Luan. She’s a very scheming b * tch. She uses her authority as a Fox and acts arrogantly. She targets me and tramples on me. I have to find a way to kill her and replace her, but the time is not right.
“After two months of eavesdropping, I have the following understanding of Chou Yao ‘er’s personality. She was a domineering woman with extremely high martial arts skills. She had no interest in power and wealth. She only pursued power and killing. It might not even be a massacre. There seemed to be a heaven-defying chivalrous spirit in her heart, as if she wanted to sweep away all the injustice in the world.”
“This is an extremely brutal female devil, but also an innocent woman. I know you’re very handsome and you’re good with women, but you can’t handle this woman. I don’t even know what man is worthy of her. ”
This was already complete admiration and worship. Even a woman like Xu Wanwan had an idol?
“Right now, I have a chance to get close to Chou Yao ‘er. This woman is reticent, cold as ice, and cruel. He had almost no hobbies, so his days in the castle were very boring and he was not willing to read. Her only interest is to listen to stories.”
Listen to stories?
This She-Devil likes to listen to stories?
But this was normal. She didn’t like jewelry, fame, silk, and even more so, she didn’t like to compare. She didn’t like reading either.
It was extremely boring.
The key was that she wasn’t as stupid as da Sha and Tang Yan, who could watch ants moving for hours without getting tired of it.
Shen lang continued to read the letter.
I had originally prepared several stories, planning to be promoted from a cleaner to her personal maid in one fell swoop. But those b * tches were even more prepared than I was. They told all the stories, all the storybooks, even “Mandarin Duck dream” and your “endless wind and moon” were told. By the way, the woman who taught the “endless wind and moon” has been sent to clean the toilets.”
You blind woman, my “endless moon and wind” is so well written. It’s obvious that a brainless woman like you can’t understand it and doesn’t have enough taste to appreciate it. You can’t blame me for not writing well.
this Chou Yao ‘er is a perverted person who likes the new and abandons the old. Women who can tell good stories can stay by her side, but they can only stay for a few days. This is because once she gets tired of this maidservant’s story, she will be sent far away. She is a person with great love. She saves all the pitiful women, but she is also a heartless person. She will never pity a single woman.
A person with great love loved a group, but not an individual.
It seemed heartless, but it was the most affectionate.
This was the demeanor of a leader.
“There’s only one chance, so I didn’t dare to act rashly and remained in hiding. It has to be bold and exciting. Most importantly, it has to be filled with freedom. It can split the sky, the earth, and the air. It’s best if it’s long enough for me to tell stories to Chou Yao ‘er for a year or so. That way, my position will be stable.”
“Remember, you have to write this story well. This is completely related to whether I can become her confidant or not.”
“I have a lot of competitors. Every day, there are dozens of b * tches who have prepared many interesting stories to show off around Chou Yao ‘er. Your story must completely crush those b * tches, you must make me stand out.”
“The story must be full of imagination and show a completely different world. It must be unrestrained and murderous. There must be no love and you must not throw your” endless wind and moon “into the toilet. Whether I can succeed or not will depend on the story you write.”
Shen lang was stunned when he saw this.
First of all, this secret letter was too long.
This proved that there was no problem with Xu Qianqian’s freedom. Moreover, she was extremely bored and could easily contact the undercover agent that Shen lang sent to raging tide city.
However, the world was really full of wonders.
Who would have thought that a vicious and cunning woman like Xu Qianqian would have to resort to telling stories in order to sneak up to Chou Yao ‘er?
Killing, unbridled, bold, and able to destroy the heavens, earth, and air.
Should I write Battle Through The Heavens or Journey to the West?
The former was longer, and 10000 words a day was enough to cover more than a year.
However, Journey to the West should be even more bizarre and fit Chou Yao ‘er’s fantasy of heroism better. It should also be slightly deeper.
Perhaps some people felt that they should copy Wukong Chuan?
No, it’s too short, and the words are sharp. There’s not much story content.
Alright, I’ll copy Journey to the West then.
I didn’t expect that I would one day be reduced to copying books for a single person.
Great God Wu chengen, I’m sorry to have wronged you.
Potato god, I won’t flip your card for now.
Next, it was Jin mucong’s turn!
He had finished reading Xu Wanwan’s Secret letter!
However, there were a few dots at the end of the secret letter. Were they ellipses?
There were punctuation marks in this world.
Who invented this?
It’s me, Shen lang.
He had printed a special version of his ” endless wind and moon ” and added punctuation marks.
Surprisingly, it did not cause any commotion.
The person who bought the special edition, although he had never come into contact with punctuation marks, accepted it very naturally and read it without any difficulty after getting used to it.
Some people criticized Shen Lang’s actions, but their voices were very weak.
Xu Wanwan actually added an ellipsis at the end of the secret letter. This was an obvious hint.
Therefore, Shen lang picked up the secret letter and roasted it over the fire.
As expected, more words appeared at the back.
This was the true content of the secret letter:
Chou Yao ‘er’s body has many special symptoms. Her nose and mouth are bleeding, her head is often dizzy, and her eyes are blurred. When it’s serious, she’ll fall unconscious. I’ve flipped through all the medical books, but I can’t find the cause. She had also looked for various doctors, but they could not find the cause of the illness.
Xu Qianqian was really scheming. She didn’t even trust the spy that Shen lang sent and wrote down the secret letter.
He was really applying what he had learned.
Just from the way she described Chou Yao ‘er’s symptoms, it seemed to be a type of chronic poison.
Previously, Shen lang had experienced lead poisoning, and that was Princess Ning Luo.
However, Qiu Yao ‘er’s case was more complicated. It did not seem like lead poisoning.
Furthermore, Xu Qianqian was an outsider, and she could not describe it clearly. Shen lang had to see her personally to find out what was wrong with Chou Yao ‘er.
What if he was poisoned?
Then who was the one who poisoned her?
Whoever benefited from it was the one who poisoned it.
Was it Qiu Xiao or Qiu Wu?
However, from a certain perspective, this was good news for Shen lang.
At least, he had a breakthrough.
AI!
He had not been a doctor for a long time, and he had almost forgotten about this identity.
“Son-in-law, where do you receive the guests from the heavenly Dao Association?” asked Jin Hui.
“Underground secret room!” Shen lang said.
............
The heavenly Dao conference was the second largest Chamber of Commerce in the world.
The secret underground room in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was huge. It was more than 200 to 300 square meters and was very comfortable.
there were even thousands of books in the library, but this was only a basement in the palace of the earl.
Hundreds of candles were lit in the secret underground room, making it as bright as day.
Two people from the heavenly Dao Association had come, one yellow and one white.
the yellow-skinned people were wearing sackcloth, while the white-skinned people were wearing silk.
there are rumors that the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu is on the verge of financial collapse and is in huge debt. However, Shen lang is still living a luxurious life. It seems like it is true.
This Caucasian man’s Chinese was even more fluent than Shen Lang’s.
That was true. Shen lang was wearing a new set of clothes that cost more than 270 gold coins.
This was because he had found another very expensive material, a special meteoric iron.
This kind of meteorites could be pulled into very thin threads that were very tough. Therefore, Shen lang embroidered the thin meteorites on his robe. It could be used to act tough and also for self-defense.
This robe was personally embroidered by his mother.
“A debt is a debt, but we still have to live.” Shen lang smiled and sat on the main seat.
“Please take a seat and serve tea!”
the two emissaries of the heavenly dao association sat down, and jin hui served them tea.
the two emissaries looked around and said, ” “Where is uncle Black Tortoise?”
“i was the one who discussed it with the two of you,” shen lang said.
The messenger was stunned. young master Shen, don’t joke around. We can only discuss this kind of important matter with the master. he said.
The meaning was clear. You’re just a little live-in son-in-law, can you make the decision?
“I can make the decisions for everything in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu,” Shen lang said.
“Including selling the entire Castle of the palace of the Earl?” the emissary of the heavenly Dao Association asked.
“Who said I’m selling the castle?” Shen lang was stunned.
The emissary of the heavenly Dao Association said,”His Excellency the Earl personally sent us a letter. He wants to do a business deal with us for a few hundred thousand gold coins.” Now that the Jin family is about to lose hope Cliff Island, the only valuable things left are this Castle and 30000 mu of fertile land.”
Shen lang could not help but laugh in his heart.
These people really dared to think.
Everyone thought that the Jin family was finished just by losing gaze Cliff Island.
If the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had to sell off their Castle and the tens of thousands of acres of farmland, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu would be doomed.
“We are willing to offer 90000 gold coins for the Jin family’s 30000 mu of land. As for the castle, we are willing to pay 200000 gold coins.” The emissary of the heavenly Dao Association said, ” the total amount is 290000 gold coins. Although it’s not enough to pay off the debt, it’s enough for your Jin family to rise again in other countries. You can continue to live a life of luxury and wealth.
The castle of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had been expanded for several generations. It was now hundreds of acres in size and was impregnable.
In the past few hundred years, the Jin clan had invested countless manpower and resources to build this Castle. Regardless of historical and military value, the value of the house alone was more than two hundred thousand gold coins.
Soni is the one selling the building, not us.
If the Jin clan were to sell off their Castle, then they would have no hope at all. They would be completely reduced to stray dogs, and they would just find a rope to hang themselves.
“Our family doesn’t sell castles or fields,” Shen lang said.
The emissary of the heavenly Dao Association asked,”then why did you ask us to come?” Our time is very precious.”
“We are selling this,” Shen lang said.
Shen lang clapped his hands, and Jin Hui walked forward to pass a box to the emissary.
The messenger took it and looked at it.
He had seen all kinds of treasures in the world, such as pearls, gems, and meteorites. They were not worth much in his eyes, not to mention a business that was worth hundreds of thousands of gold.
He opened the box.
The emissary of the heavenly Dao Association could not help but be stunned. Then, he was so shocked that the box in his hand almost flew out.
It was a mirror, a modern glass mirror.
Mirrors weren’t rare. There were many mirrors in this world.
The slightly cheaper bronze mirrors, the more expensive silver mirrors, and the more expensive crystal mirrors.
However, copper mirrors rust easily, while silver mirrors turn black after a period of time and can’t be polished.
And these mirrors were very blurry and dim.
The crystal mirror was much clearer, but its shape was irregular, so it was difficult to make it big. The key was that it was extremely expensive.
The merchant from the heavenly Dao Association had thought that the crystal mirror was the clearest mirror in the world.
However, it was nothing compared to the mirror in front of him.
It was too clear.
It was too shocking.
It wasn’t just clear, every single detail could be seen.
It was as if his entire person was reflected in it.
This wasn’t a mirror, it was a reflection of his soul!
Not only that, but the mirror was so light and thin.
This was the first time the emissary of the heavenly Dao Association had seen himself so clearly.
This mirror was epoch-making, and it instantly destroyed all the other mirrors.
It was too stunning!
There was a huge business opportunity in this!
These two merchants from the heavenly Dao Association could easily imagine that once this kind of mirror appeared, it would simply be a revolution, a golden storm.
It would subvert the entire commercial market.
In fact, the two merchants from the heavenly Dao Association had still underestimated him.
At that time, the kingdom of Venice had become a super-rich country in Europe because it had mastered the manufacturing process of the glass mirror.
The kingdom of Venice had even formulated a law that whoever leaked the technology of making the glass mirror would be executed.
It was not until the 17th century that a few Venice craftsmen escaped to France and leaked the process of making glass mirrors. France built the first mirror factory in Normandy.
When the Queen of France got married, the kingdom of Venice gave her a mirror as a gift, which was worth hundreds of thousands of francs.
Modern people could not understand the shock that ancient people felt when they saw the first glass mirror.
Shen lang said, ” the mirror in your hands is about one foot long. How much do you think it should cost? ”
“Is it the auction price or the retail price?” the emissary of the heavenly Dao Association asked.
If the item was rare, then it was possible for the auction price to be as high as the sky.
If it was a retail price, it meant that it would be sold on a large scale, which would be a huge profit.
This was similar to how Rolls-Royce cars were sold at sky-high prices, but its profitability was far inferior to that of Volkswagen. There was even a period of time when it was almost bankrupt, so it was eventually sold to BMW and the Bentley was sold to Volkswagen.
“The retail price,” Shen lang said.
A one-foot long copper mirror cost about half a gold coin.
The silver mirror was a little more expensive, at two gold coins.
A crystal mirror?
No one was this big, because the crystal was natural, and it was impossible to cut out such a large flat surface.
However, a four-inch crystal mirror would cost around 20 gold coins.
this mirror can be sold for 100 gold coins at first, ” the emissary of the heavenly Dao Association said. next, it can be sold for 50 gold coins. The lowest price will not be less than 20 gold coins.
This was selling them as luxury goods.
He would first harvest the rich and powerful families, then the rich merchants, and finally the small wealthy families.
“What’s its cost?” the emissary asked.
When he asked this question, the messenger of the heavenly Dao Association felt that Shen lang would definitely not tell the truth. It was obvious that he wanted to sell the mirror to the heavenly Dao Association, and then the heavenly Dao Association would distribute the world.
“A one-foot mirror costs one silver coin,” Shen lang said.
“What?” The merchant from the heavenly Dao Association was completely stunned.
The mirror was so clear that it could reflect a person’s soul. It would be normal to think that it would cost more than a dozen gold coins.
He didn’t expect that the cost would be only one silver coin.
“With the mass production, the cost can be reduced by more than half,” Shen lang said.
The merchants of the heavenly Dao Association were completely shocked.
Then, he fell into a huge fantasy.
The cost of one silver coin could be sold for 100 gold coins at the beginning. How many times the profit would this be?
Two thousand times the profit.
In this world, what business theory could be more shocking than this?
The merchant from the heavenly Dao Association said,”young master Shen lang, how many of these mirrors do you have?” We’re willing to pay 10 gold coins for each mirror to buy this first batch of mirrors.”
This wholesale price was already very kind. With the current situation of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, it was impossible for them to sell it themselves.
The first batch of mirrors could be sold for 100 gold coins each at the heavenly Dao conference. It was a Super sky-high price, equivalent to tens of thousands of Yuan.
However, when he thought about the Chanel bags in the modern world, an LV bag would cost tens of thousands of Yuan.
Setting the price at 100 gold coins was to maximize sales and profit. Otherwise, the price could have been even higher.
It was a luxury item.
“There are only 1000 mirrors,” Shen lang said.
After all, Shen lang had a limited number of craftsmen. He could only make 1000 mirrors in a few months.
The most difficult thing here was not the mirror, but the production of high-purity glass. As for the production of the mirror, it was very simple. All they had to do was to plate a layer of liquid silver on the glass. This was more advanced than the technology in the kingdom of Venice. They plated the glass with poisonous Mercury.
The emissary of the heavenly Dao Association said, ” after the inspection, if every mirror is so clear and bright, then we will take all 1000 mirrors. 10 gold coins for each. In total, 10000 gold coins.
Ten thousand gold coins should be a big deal.
However, to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, it was like a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood.
Just paying off the debt to the yinyuan Association would require 700000 gold coins.
Shen lang shook his head and said,”no, I want to sell it for one million gold coins.”
As soon as these words were said, the emissary of the heavenly Dao Association was completely stunned, as if he couldn’t believe his ears.
You’re selling a thousand mirrors for a million gold coins?
Have you gone crazy thinking about money?
You said it yourself, the cost is only one silver coin for a mirror, and we’re offering you ten gold coins for one, which is already full of the mind of a big businessman.
Shen lang said, ” I’m not only selling mirrors. I’m also selling the mirror-making process to you. I’m only selling it to you. In other words, if I were to sell my entire business to you, that one million gold coins wouldn’t be too much, right?”
this is a monopoly business that can last for decades or even centuries. The profits it can bring in far exceed a few million gold coins.
“I’m only going to sell it to you for a million gold coins. Of course, the only requirement is that you must purchase the glass from my family.”
“This business is not only an opportunity for you to make money, but also an opportunity to defeat the yin Yuan Association and become the number one Chamber of Commerce in the world.”
“If you don’t want to, I can only take this craft to the hidden origins sect. I believe they will be very happy. After that, you’ll probably be suppressed by the society for another few decades.”
