Chapter 380: Recruitment and Cooperation
A faint ice-cold aura spread from that drop of 【Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu】.
Elder Ling Zhiwang hadn't seen Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu before, but he had worked in the commercial chamber for nearly a hundred years and was well-informed, so he saw at a glance that this dew was extraordinary.
"This is..."
Elder Ling Zhiwang asked in shock: "Daoist He, is this Ice Origin Bingyuan Jiazi Lu?"
"No!" He Pingsheng smiled and shook his head, then picked up the spirit tea in his hand and drank it in one gulp.
Opposite, Elder Ling Zhiwang was somewhat disappointed.
Now, he only wanted Ice Origin Bingyuan Jiazi Lu to increase his cultivation.
He didn't expect He Pingsheng to take out something unknown.
He was even a bit angry.
He felt He Pingsheng was playing with him.
So, Elder Ling Zhiwang's face was somewhat embarrassed and also somewhat black.
He Pingsheng put down the cup in his hand and said faintly: "This item is named 【Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu】, it is a more advanced thing than Ice Origin Bingyuan Jiazi Lu; one drop can fill an ice-attribute dantian, and can also increase the lifespan of cultivators of all spirit root attributes by one hundred years!"
"What spirit root is Daoist Ling?"
Elder Ling Zhiwang was overjoyed.
One hundred years?
Not sixty years!
This...
Hiss hiss hiss...
Too shocking.
That is a supreme treasure for a Golden Core stage cultivator like him who is absolutely wise.
"I mainly practice ice attribute!" Elder Ling Zhiwang took a deep breath, his gaze could no longer leave the Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu, saying: "Daoist He, speak directly; I want this drop of Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu, what do you need me to do?"
"Or rather, what treasure do you need!"
The current Elder Ling Zhiwang is nearly two hundred years old, and the lifespan of the Golden Core stage is five hundred years.
So theoretically speaking, he still has three hundred years to live.
But if he eats this Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu, he will live another four hundred years.
A full one hundred years of extra lifespan!
He Pingsheng didn't directly make a request, but asked: "Is Daoist Ling planning to return to his hometown?"
"Hmm!" Elder Ling Zhiwang said: "I am from Tiannan City, Nanlong Commandery; I wasn't joking with you just now, I am preparing to return to my hometown, then buy land and houses, take beautiful wives and concubines, and enjoy the blessings of heaven and educate descendants in the future!"
"That's all!"
He Pingsheng said: "That's a good choice, however... I plan to open a shop in the capital of the Great Liang Empire!"
"But I don't know much about the many ways of doing things inside!"
"I want to invite Daoist Ling to go over and help, help me manage this commercial chamber!"
"Thirty years!"
He Pingsheng said: "Within thirty years, you help me manage the shop, and I will give you this drop of Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu; of course, your treatment within these thirty years will still be there, exactly the same as the shopkeeper of other commercial chambers!"
"After thirty years, if you are willing to continue staying in my commercial chamber, that's fine; if you are not willing, when the time comes, take your beautiful wives and concubines back to your hometown, and I will give you another sum of travel expenses!"
"How about it?"
He Pingsheng didn't look favorably upon the treasures on Elder Ling Zhiwang.
But this person still had value.
Elder Ling Zhiwang was stunned for a moment, then said: "Daoist He, are you joking?"
"Let alone in the capital of the Great Liang Empire, even opening a commercial chamber in Hongshi City is impossible!"
"Daoist He, you are too whimsical!"
In Elder Ling Zhiwang's eyes, there are only two kinds of people who can open a commercial chamber.
One is opening it in the name of the country and cooperating with the City Lord's Mansion in various places.
The second is various princes, imperial clans, etc., of the imperial family, who have special approval to have the qualification.
You, He Pingsheng, still want to open a commercial chamber, and in the capital?
Dreaming?
Of course, running to a remote area, similar to opening a commercial chamber in the Matou Mountain Market of the Cultivation Alliance, is another matter.
But that kind of commercial chamber cannot even sell third-tier materials, and the things that can be earned are limited.
No meaning.
"Daoist Ling, take a look at what this is?" He Pingsheng reached out and took out a jade slip.
Inside the jade slip was the commercial chamber opening permit given to him by the Crown Prince.
It said that He Pingsheng could open a commercial chamber anywhere in the Great Liang Empire, but only one could be opened, and no branches or sub-shops were allowed.
"This... this this this... this..." Elder Ling Zhiwang was excited beyond measure: "Is it real? Daoist He, your ability is too great, you can even get this thing?"
"Hmm..." He Pingsheng nodded: "It's real!"
"So Daoist Ling, are you interested in participating in the process of a commercial chamber from nothing to something?"
Elder Ling Zhiwang took a deep breath: "Good... no problem!"
"However, I alone certainly can't do it!"
"Daoist He, I want to bring someone over together; don't worry, this person is absolutely reliable, has worked with me before, and his vision is even more poisonous than mine, specializing in purchasing items!"
"I am responsible for selling and managing!"
He Pingsheng nodded: "Fine... as long as you think he is trustworthy, it's no problem!"
"Take this thing!"
He Pingsheng gave that drop of Ice Origin Bingyuan Shenlu to Elder Ling Zhiwang.
After the two discussed some details, Elder Ling Zhiwang brought over a tall and fat guy.
"Daoist He, this is 【Daoist Huang】, named Huang Shen!"
"Huang Shen greets Senior He!" After seeing He Pingsheng, Huang Shen cupped his hands excitedly.
He Pingsheng swept his spiritual sense over him and found that this person was an eleventh-layer Foundation Establishment guy.
Then calling him Senior was also reasonable.
"Don't be polite!" He Pingsheng asked: "What spirit root are you, and how old is your bone age?"
Huang Shen said: "Senior, the junior is a water and wood spirit root, and I am over one hundred and seventy years old this year!"
"Sigh..."
"I am unlucky; every time I always brush past the things that can break through the Dao barrier!"
"But don't worry, although I only have about thirty years of lifespan left, helping you establish this commercial chamber is definitely no problem!"
"My family has been appraising treasures for generations; don't look at my low cultivation, in terms of purchasing, basically there is no big problem!"
He Pingsheng smiled: "No matter, as long as you don't encounter absolute wisdom, I can let you advance to Golden Core!"
"That heavenly treasure that can break through the bottleneck, I will give it to you!"
He Pingsheng still had one copy.
Back then, he gave that 【Immortal Fruit Token】 to Qiao Huizhu, and Qiao Huizhu used this item to exchange for a 【Nanqi Fruit】 in the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect; this thing was not needed, and Xiao Qiao also had her own Nanqi Fruit.
So this Nanqi Fruit was later sent over by Qiao Huizhu entrusting someone.
It was just a matter of the past two years.
The Nanqi Fruit was strengthened into two by He Pingsheng, just right to give one to this Huang Shen.
But there is no rush.
Wait!
Give it to him only after he performs well; after all, he is not familiar with Huang Shen.
"Many thanks, Senior, many thanks, Senior..." Huang Shen originally had other things to ask He Pingsheng for, but at this moment, hearing He Pingsheng's promise, he hurriedly threw the matter he had prepared to ask for to the nine heavens.
What is more important than advancing to the Golden Core stage? ===== CHAPTER 381 =====
