Chapter 314 Fear
Chunqin twitched her lips and said, "This is indeed her own flaw, then what about the flaw in her technique?"

Xuanmiao: "This is another price."

Chunqin gritted her teeth and said, "We are willing to pay more."

Xuanmiao: “I won’t sell it.”

Haruko: ...

Sometimes she really wanted to flip the table and regret it.

Xuanmiao raised his eyes and looked at her coldly. He placed the sword in his hand on his knees and gently tapped the scabbard with his fingers.

Chunqin managed a smile and said, "Master Xuanmiao, we at Qianxilou are still accepting the business of buying out information. Do you have any information that you want to buy out?"

"Yes," Xuanmiao said, "Pan Sanzhu from Anren County, Raozhou, erase this matter. I don't care what method you use, the news from Qianxi Tower must not link her with Pan Yun."

Chunqin immediately said, "Ten thousand taels!"

Xuanmiao looked at her with a half-smile, "Is this the price of your Qianxi Tower?"

Chunqin smiled and said, "Master Xuanmiao, Pan Yun is the youngest person to break through to the first marquis, the youngest person to enter the Dao, and even more talented than you and Zhang Liuzhen of Longhu Mountain. It's very cheap to block her news for 10,000 taels."

Xuanmiao: "It's just blocking, not worth the money."

Chunqin's eyes rolled, "What does the wizard mean?"

"I want you to tell the outside world that these are two people. The Pan Sanzhu from Anren County is using Pan Yun's name to frame Sanqing Mountain and stir up conflicts between Sanqing Mountain and Longhu Mountain."

Chunqin: "We at Qianxilou don't sell fake news."

Xuanmiao: “I didn’t ask you to tell a lie. I know you can tell the truth and let them deduce the effect I want.

She leaned forward and looked at Chunqin steadily, "You've done a lot of things like this, it shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Chunqin was a little embarrassed, and moved her eyes away guiltily, whispering: "That only works for smart people."

"Then sell this news only to smart people," Xuan Miao said with a serious face, "Chun Qin, one piece of news for another, you have made a lot of money. There are so many people sitting outside, waiting for you to reach into their pockets."

Harukoto's heart was pounding as she nodded under her gaze, "Master Xuanmiao is right."

Xuanmiao pointed at the table and said, "Let's write the contract."

Chunqin lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said to the recorder, "I'll do it."

The recorder immediately gave up his seat to her.

Chunqin wrote two contracts, signed them and handed them to Xuanmiao.

Xuan Miao took it, took a look at it, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, but after a moment he took it and signed on it.

Chunqin nodded slightly to the person asking her questions, and the person left, returning with a box a few moments later.

Chunqin opened the box and took a look at it, then closed it and handed it to Xuanmiao, saying with a smile, "Master Xuanmiao, I apologize for any offense I may have caused you in the past. Please forgive me."

Xuan Miao took the box, handed it to Tao Ji, and said coldly: "I never hold grudges."

Chunqin's mouth twitched slightly. Even her biological parents might not admit this, right?

Seeing Xuanmiao was about to leave, Chunqin hurriedly called her and said, "Master Xuanmiao, please give me one more lesson. I wonder if your little sister's temperament is like yours or like Taoist Master Tao Ji?"

Xuan Miao frowned, "She's not like me, nor like him."

Chunqin said quickly: "Perhaps I should ask this question in a different way: Is Taoist Master Pan Yun more like Taoist Master Tao Ji, or more like Master Wang?"

Xuanmiao's brows relaxed and he said, "More like my senior brother."

Tao Ji opened his mouth and whispered, "She looks like my senior brother and junior sister Xuanmiao."

The guess came true, Chunqin was glad for her choice. Whether it was Xuanmiao or Wang Feiyin, both of them protected their shortcomings and held grudges.

Pan Jun broke through to the first marquis level at such a young age. Such a genius must be arrogant, vindictive and protective. If she knew about the grudge between Qianxi Tower and Xuanmiao, and if she bought and sold her information, it would probably bring trouble to Qianxi Tower in the future.

It’s better to build a good relationship from now on.

If she knew that most of the information about her that Qianxi Tower sold came from Xuanmiao and that they paid a huge price for it, she wouldn't vent her anger on Qianxi Tower, right?

Chunqin enthusiastically escorted Xuanmiao out of Qianxi Tower and waved her handkerchief at her at the door, "Master, come again next time~~"

The voice was so delicate that it made Tao Ji shiver.

Chunqin gave him a sidelong glance and muttered, "Country bumpkin..."

Tao Ji, a country bumpkin, followed Xuan Miao closely. He opened the box and took a look. He was surprised to see a stack of large banknotes inside. "Isn't it news in exchange for news? Why did they pay?"

Tao Ji frowned, "They don't want to do our business because the money is too little?"

"No," Xuanmiao said, "They didn't want to offend Junior Sister, so they agreed."

Tao Ji: "...They haven't even met Junior Sister yet, why are they afraid of her?"

Xuanmiao glanced at him and said, "The youngest initiate can be said to be the best in the martial arts world. You personally testified that she is as vindictive and protective as me and my senior brother. Do you think Qianxi Tower dares to offend her?"

Tao Ji: ...

He quickly defended himself, "I, Junior Sister, I didn't mean that. I meant that she is as loyal and decisive as you and Senior Brother. I didn't say that you hold grudges..."

Xuanmiao: "You don't need to explain, I know everything. But it is also because of your words that Chunqin gave the money willingly."

Tao Ji: ... He really didn't mean that, really, God, someone can help him to defend himself. Xuanmiao: "Let's go to Changzhou Prefecture, treat patients, and go to see Master Liu after paying the balance. This round trip is enough to cover the expenses of the Taoist temple next year. I don't know how much money the eldest brother spent on the magic weapon for the youngest sister."

Tao Ji: "Wang Tiezhu's fees have always been reasonable, and Senior Brother is on good terms with him, so it shouldn't be a lot, right?"

Xuanmiao glanced at him and said, "The sacred tree in the utility room was cut three feet long, and the meteorite was also taken away. If you want to match the craftsmanship and auxiliary materials of these two things, how low can the price be?"

Tao Ji suddenly felt the pressure of supporting his family.

He looked up at the sun in the sky and said, "Fortunately, the sun hasn't set yet. We can still go a little further."

The brother and sister immediately quickened their pace and headed towards Changzhou Prefecture without stopping.

At this time, Pan Yun and his colleagues had just driven the ox cart back to the mountain temple, and together with two handymen, they moved the grain to the utility room.

Pan Yun was now incredibly strong. He could carry a bag of grain in each hand as easily as carrying two bunches of vegetables. The villagers who were working in the temple were stunned.

Wang Cong was carrying a bag of grain and stacked it on top. He turned his head to look at Pan Yun who was walking out, and pulled Miao He to ask, "Did your trip to the county town go smoothly? Why does Junior Master look so unhappy?"

Miaohe: "It was smooth on the way there, but not so smooth on the way back. No one came to rob us."

Wang Cong: "...Fifth Junior Sister, did you say it the other way around?"

"No, Junior Master wanted to lure someone to rob him, but he failed to do so."

Wang Cong pointed at the grain on the ox cart and asked, "Use these hooks?"

Miao He looked around and whispered in his ear, "No, use money."

Wang Cong looked at her.

Miao He came closer and whispered even more quietly, "We exchanged the silver notes for two sacks of copper coins, and Junior Master carried them around the city to seduce people."

Wang Cong immediately asked cleverly, "What is the price of silver today?"

Miao He looked at him in surprise, "Big Brother, how did you know that the price of silver today is 1,200 wen?"

Wang Cong tapped her forehead and said, "Little Master is not someone who would suffer a loss. If the silver price was not high, she would not have done the unnecessary thing of exchanging copper coins. If she wanted to seduce someone, wouldn't it be more eye-catching to pick up two large silver notes that were accidentally dropped, or toss two silver ingots around in the market?"

Miaohe had never thought of these methods. She thought the senior brother was so smart.

Wang Cong got the key point and said immediately: "I will go out tomorrow, please take care of the matters of the mountain temple."

Miaohe: "Aren't you coming back tomorrow?"

Wang Cong: "Going on a long journey."

"It's almost Chinese New Year, why do you want to travel so far?"

Wang Cong said nothing. Why? Of course, it was to make money!

When it comes to making money, Wang Cong is professional, much more professional than Pan Yun.

He decided to go on a long journey early tomorrow morning, and his caravan companions should also get going.

Pan Yun picked up the last two bags of grain and piled them in the utility room, then sighed.

Wang Cong walked past her and said, "Little Master, don't worry. I will come back in a few days and make up the difference for you. How many banknotes do you have now? Why not give me some capital first?"

Pan Yun: "You want to speculate in silver?"

"Speculate?" Wang Cong said, "I have a way to exchange silver ingots for more copper coins."

Pan Yun patted his shoulder and said, "Master nephew, although I bought a batch of copper coins, it does not mean that I approve of such behavior, especially since you not only invested all your own money, but also wanted to borrow money from me."

"Miaohe knew to keep two-thirds of the money and only took out 20 taels to speculate in silver. Can't you learn from her?"

Wang Cong stretched out his hand and said, "Uncle Junior Master, I am sure, please trust me."

Pan Yun took out the banknote and slapped it on his palm. "Okay, although I don't agree with this behavior, I do believe in you."

Wang Cong was able to support Sanqing Mountain at such a young age, and she believed that he had his own judgment.

If something is impossible, he will never step into it.

Wang Cong clenched the money in his hand, and said with a turn of eyes: "Little Master, I heard from Fifth Master that you still want to go to the government office to get the reward money. Why don't we go early tomorrow morning? You take me with you."

Pan Yun really wanted to take the reward, so it would be good to be more prepared, so he asked, "Going to Guangxin Prefecture?"

Wang Cong nodded.

Pan Yun said, "If you can borrow your father's medicine cauldron, I will give you a ride."

Wang Cong: “No problem!”

His father asked him for gold two days ago. Now his father would agree to any request he made.

Didn’t you see him being lazy and not practicing these days and running down the mountain? Didn’t he say a word?

Wang Cong decided to jump on his father's head again.

Wang Cong figured it out and was happy. Pan Jun was also slightly happy. Just as they were about to speak, there was a sudden ding-dong sound from the spiritual realm, indicating that there was new merit value.

Pan Jun sank into his consciousness and took a glance. He was slightly stunned. The merit value from Su Dashan was +10.
Pan Jun raised an eyebrow, "How does he know me?"

At this time, Su Dashan had just come out of the post station. As soon as he went out, tears rolled down his face. He fell to his knees on the ground towards the direction of Sanqing Mountain.

　see you tomorrow
