The Great Immortal with Boundless Magical Power Chapter 41

Chapter 41 No room left

“One hundred and ten Gu Yuan Pills, ninety White Dew Pills, sixty Qi Restoring Pills…”

Zhu Hongan was sitting behind the counter, calculating his income from selling medicine today.

Because he looked a little ugly, the four clerks in the shop all lowered their heads while working, and no one dared to look at Zhu Hongan.

“What the hell, it's getting less and less.” Zhu Hongan suddenly slapped the counter and cursed.

Pegasus is so big, and the casual cultivators are all poor. With the sales of Lujiaosan and Tianguidan, they will naturally reduce their expenses in other areas. Not only elixirs, but other businesses will inevitably be affected. It's just pharmacies that are most affected.

Zhu Hongan turned to look at Yang An who was smiling apologetically beside him, "Why are you laughing!"

Yang An has small eyes, a flat nose, and black spots all over his face. He is thin and wearing a black robe. He stands with his waist bent like a big mouse.

Even though Zhu Hongan was scolding him, Yang An still laughed with him, with a humble and flattering look on his face. He lowered his voice and said, "Shopkeeper, all the spiritual stones are in Gao Xian's. His spiritual stones are just your money."

"Hahaha…"

Zhu Hongan liked hearing this, and he couldn't help but feel very good.

Originally, Zhou Ye secretly sold Lujiao Powder, which did not have much influence on him. The teacher behind Zhou Ye is the elder who teaches the skills, so it is not easy to offend. The key is that he went to Zhou Ye, who had a very good attitude and only said that he would try selling it for a few months. If business is good, I will cooperate with him then.

He didn't think much about it at the time, but when Huang Ying came out to buy Tiangui Dan, he knew something was wrong. After some investigation, it turned out that Gao Xian was the one behind it! After knowing this, he was not angry but happy.

As long as Gao Xian is in his hand, all the money belongs to him. Moreover, Gao Xian can only make elixirs for him in the future.

Lujiaosan and Tianguidan will become his cash cow. As for Zhou Ye and Huang Ying, without Gao Xian providing elixirs, they were nothing.

Zhu Hongan patted Yang An on the shoulder and praised: "Thank you for finding out the situation. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly."

As for not treating him unfairly, Zhu Hongan felt that a few words of praise was already quite good.

Yang An nodded happily: "Thank you very much, shopkeeper."

As soon as Yang An looked up, he saw Zhu Qiniang coming in from the back door, and the smile on his face suddenly became a little dryer.

Zhu Qiniang looked cold all day long, and Yang An was a little scared in his heart. He knows very well that Zhu Qiniang is the number one thug of Changsheng Hall, with a cold personality and ruthless attacks.

What was even more frightening was that he could never see through this woman's thoughts.

He has always stayed away from this woman.

“Madam boss, you are back.” Yang An hurriedly greeted him respectfully, and at the same time reminded Zhu Hongan.

Zhu Hongan closed the account book, turned around and looked at Zhu Qiniang, "Did someone bring it back?"

"Um."

Zhu Qiniang responded: "In the backyard."

"This kid is timid. If you let him go for a while, he will become afraid."

Zhu Hongan said with a smile: "Let's go take care of him after we've had enough to eat and drink."

Yang An reminded in a low voice: "Shopkeeper, don't let him get away."

“He didn't dare.”

Zhu Hongan sneered: "Such a small Pegasus, where can he run? If he dares to run around, his master Xu Mingyuan can kill him without me taking action!"

He took out a spiritual stone from his sleeve and threw it to Yang An: "Go to Lao Li Liquor Shop to buy some good food. Today is a good day, so I need to drink a little..."

By the time Yang An bought the food and wine, it was already completely dark.

Yang An sat at the bottom, drinking with shopkeeper Zhu and his wife. He didn't dare to eat very much, so he poured wine for shopkeeper Zhu diligently and joked with him.

Zhu Qiniang ate a lot but never drank. She left first after eating.

When Zhu Qiniang left, Yang An relaxed. He drank a few glasses of wine with Zhu Hongan, and he felt a little intoxicated. He and Zhu Hongan discussed the beauties in the flying garden.

Zhu Hongan also became excited when talking about those enchanting slender waists and long legs, "I asked Gao Xian to sign a death contract today, and I will take you to Feihuayuan to have fun. Yun'er, Feng'er, those skills are really amazing..."

The two old men became more and more excited as they talked, and they were already thinking about how to have a good time.

　　After drinking until half a month into the sky, Zhu Hongan took Yang An to the backyard room.

In mid-September, the weather has turned cold.

The side room was originally used for storing sundries. It did not face the sun, and the window paper was torn. When the night wind blew, the room became even colder.

The light of the oil lamp swayed gently in the night wind, and the light flickered on and off. Gao Xian was sitting at the back of the table. Under the bright and dim lights, his face looked neither yin nor yang, and his calmness contained a bit of indescribable weirdness.

Zhu Hongan was a little surprised. In his impression, Gao Xian had always been very timid, and he would be at a loss after being frightened a few times.

How can this be so peaceful?

He was a little unhappy again. Did this kid really think he didn't dare to take action?

Zhu Hongan walked over with a sullen face and slammed the table. He shouted, "Gao Xian!" As an eighth-level qi practitioner, Zhu Hongan's voice was full of energy and high-pitched.

Gao Xian was unusually calm. He sat still without any frightened expression on his face.

He raised his head and looked at Zhu Hongan and asked calmly: "Shopkeeper Zhu, what do you want to do by arresting me?"

“You still have the nerve to say it!”

Zhu Hongan was still a bit pretentious at first, but now he was really angry.

Seeing him coming, Gao Xian still dared to sit down and asked him why!

“Let me ask you, did you refine Huang Ying's Tiangui Dan and Zhou Ye's Lujiao San?”

Gao Xian nodded: "I refined it."

He turned around and asked, "What's the problem with this?"

“You still have the nerve to ask!”

Zhu Hong'an pointed at Gao Xian with some excitement and yelled, "The medicinal materials are mine, the alchemy furnace is mine, but you secretly make alchemy and sell it. Is this what your master taught you?"

“In the entire Pegasus Collection, I am the only one who can sell pills. This is a rule set by the sect!

"You are stealing and betraying me. If I send you back to the Lianyun Sect's Discipline Hall, you will definitely die."

Zhu Hongan's tone slowed down a bit when he said this, "For the sake of your master, and because you are young, ignorant and a first-time offender, I will give you a chance."

Gao Xian also had a complicated mood. He never knew that Changshengtang had the power to sell elixirs. Qiniang didn't even mention such an important thing...

The problem is that he has no choice. Zhu Hongan is too greedy and difficult to cooperate with. Lujiaosan and Tianguidan are related to the aura of humanity and must be sold in large quantities.

He recalled that Qiniang had asked him, what if Zhu Hongan did not allow him to sell pills? It turns out that someone had warned him a long time ago...

Gao Xian sighed softly, "Please tell me shopkeeper Zhu clearly."

Zhu Hongan was about to say something, but he found that Gao Xian had been sitting there. He went over and grabbed Gao Xian's collar and lifted him up, "Young man, you dare to sit in front of me. Who are you?"

Gao Xian did not resist. He comforted the other party softly: "Shopkeeper Zhu, don't get excited. If you have anything to say, speak slowly."

Yang An looked on and felt that Gao Xian was a little too calm. Although he had never dealt with Gao Xian, he felt that something was wrong.

He suddenly felt someone coming in, and looked sideways, but it was Zhu Qiniang.

Zhu Qiniang was a full head taller than him. She stood quietly at the door, silent, but naturally showing a strong aura.

Yang An hurriedly nodded and smiled at Zhu Qiniang, then took two steps and hid to one side.

Having Zhu Qiniang stand behind him was not only rude, but also insecure.

Zhu Hongan was grabbing Gao Xian and spraying him wildly. He was spitting foam and flying stars. Gao Xian had a look of helplessness on his face.

This middle-aged man didn't take good care of his oral cavity, and he had just drank alcohol, so his mouth smelled terrible.

Zhu Hongan thought Gao Xian was scared, and he felt a little proud. This kid was pretty good at pretending, but in his hands, all these little tricks were useless.

He took out a contract from his sleeve and slapped it on the table, "If you sign this contract, I won't care about the past with you."

Gao Xian took the contract and read it over. The content was very simple. Changshengtang signed a hundred-year contract with him. Within a hundred years, every pill he refined would belong to Changshengtang.

Once the contract is violated, Changshengtang has the right to deal with him at will.

As for treatment and remuneration, not a word is written.

“Shopkeeper Zhu, this contract is too long, and it doesn't say how to share the benefits of refining the elixir…”

Gao Xian shook his head. The contract conditions were too harsh. If he really signed it, he would become a slave of Changsheng Hall.

Zhu Qiniang really didn't lie to him!

In fact, he didn't fully believe Qiniang's words. The main reason is that Qiniang obviously has deep malice towards Shopkeeper Zhu.

Now it seems that Zhu Hongan is really greedy and cruel, and does not leave any room for others.

Zhu Hongan grabbed Gao Xian's collar and lifted him over. The two looked at each other face to face, and Zhu Hongan's little eyes were full of fierceness.

He sneered sternly: "You secretly used my medicinal materials and alchemy furnace to earn so many spiritual stones. You really think I opened a charity!"

“Today you either sign the contract or die, choose for yourself!”

Gao Xian sighed again. He turned his head and glanced at Zhu Qiniang who was standing at the door. Zhu Qiniang pursed her lips slightly, with an indifferent expression and a murderous look in her eyes.

Zhu Qiniang noticed Gao Xian's gaze and nodded slightly to Gao Xian.

Zhu Hongan turned his back to Zhu Qiniang and could not see Zhu Qiniang's movements.

Yang An on the side saw the interaction between Zhu Qiniang and Gao Xian. He was full of surprise and uneasiness: "What are Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang doing? Something seems wrong..."
