Master Zhang looked at Mo Wenjie upon hearing his words. Lord Ye, you see the harm that Ye Qiu yang has brought to Miss Xiao is so great. If we don't punish Young Master Ye, isn't it a bit too unfair to Master Mo? Yet, if we punish him too severely, I can't bear it in my heart either. After all, we have been colleagues for so many years and our feelings are profound. Hand in hand or back in back, they're all flesh and blood to me? This makes me very difficult and I don't know what to do. Why don't you make the decision as Lord Ye?
Master Ye was so angry that he was about to swear at his mother. Zhang, you old scoundrel, you want too much compensation and you want me to be grateful to you. You're asking for trouble by taking both the meat and the bone. You shouldn't be so greedy, or else you'll choke. Once I improve my strength, I'll see how I can take revenge on your Yun City. I won't stop until I have avenged this insult, even if it means bending over backwards for Mo Wenjie. If he wants to curry favor with Mo Wenjie, I will make him bow to my Starlu City and fulfill all of its requests for super materials. What does it matter if it's a gift for his fiancée? Master Ye smiled at Mo Wenjie and nodded in agreement. Since Mo Wenjie is my inept grandson who caused harm to Miss Xiao, it is only right that I make compensation. As someone who upholds justice, I won't let Miss Xiao be wronged. Therefore, my Starlu City is willing to offer 10 million crystal stones as compensation for Miss Xiao. What do you think of this, Lord Mo?"
Mo Wenjie was taken aback upon hearing this, wondering what a concept of 10 million crystal stones was. Even the master of the whole city would need to work for ten years to earn that amount!
Master Zhang was completely dumbfounded upon hearing this. What does Master Ye, this scoundrel, want to do? Do you want Mo to be grateful to you? You're dreaming. How could Mo ever forgive you for this trivial sum of money? You're overthinking it! What do you think, Lord Ye? If you think there's no problem, I have no objections at all. After all, it was your grandson who caused the harm to Miss Xiao!
Master Ye wanted to bite Master Zhang so much that he was about to lose control. Can't you leave those things alone? You old scoundrel is deliberately stirring up trouble between me and Mo Wenjie. You're not a decent person at all, and I won't just be manipulated by you. In any case, I'll dig a hole for you too. The misunderstandings between Miss Xiao and Ye Qiu yang were not intentional on his part, it was still someone who wanted to cause trouble for me! Even if Ye Qiu yang wanted to do harm to Miss Xiao, if they told me the truth about what happened, how could I let him do anything he wants? We certainly made a mistake first, but some people had ulterior motives and wanted us to have a conflict. Their hearts are as evil as they come! They're trying to destroy our relationship, make Mo Wenjie hate my Starlu City people, which would mean that any Starlu City people who came here to buy or process Dan drugs would be refused by Mo Wenjie. You'll lose a lot of customers, and they might be trying to make a profit from this situation themselves. I'm sure that Mo Wenjie isn't an idiot either. There's no point in pursuing this matter any further now that my Starlu City is willing to offer 10 million crystal stones as compensation for Miss Xiao. Here's one million crystal stones in silver bills; please accept it on behalf of Miss Xiao from Lord Ye. I'm extremely grateful for this gesture. In the future, if any of my Starlu City people need high-grade Dan drugs, I hope Lord Mo will not hesitate in providing them."
Mo Wenjie said, shaking his head at Master Ye, "How could I refuse a customer? As long as you are willing to come to the Yun Du City Alchemy Association, you are all our customers. We're in business; everyone is a customer!"
Master Ye nodded upon hearing this. As long as Lord Mo doesn't reject our customers, we can strengthen our cooperation. As long as Lord Mo has high-grade Dan drugs, money is not a problem for us; we have plenty of it!
Mo Wenjie looked at Master Ye, saying, "The Yun Du City Alchemy Association has plenty of high-grade Dan drugs. As long as you have the money to enhance your strength, it's not a problem at all. I can guarantee everyone that there's no Dan drug that you can't get in our association, at least for ordinary immortals. However, for upper immortals, I can't make such a promise as my level is not sufficient to refine even more advanced Dan drugs."
Master Ye, upon hearing this, smiled and nodded at Mo Wenjie. "Mo Association Director, you are indeed dealing with ordinary immortals. Upper immortals wouldn't come here anyway! So, there's no need for you to worry too much!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head, saying, "There are upper immortals here, but they are indeed fewer. When you have the chance to meet them, you'll know that! You may change your tune then!"
Master Zhang looked at Mo Wenjie, asking, "Are you not afraid that they will come to seek revenge against you once they have enhanced their strength?"
Mo Wenjie looked at Master Zhang and laughed, "I'm actually afraid they won't cause me trouble. Have you ever thought, Association Director, if I can help you enhance your strength, why can't I do it again? If they want to cause trouble, I can immediately cultivate a group of even more powerful people. When they come and fail to cause trouble, what kind of price should they pay? Are you not counting on it, Lord City Master? Does our Yun Du City fear others sending money? On the contrary, I think the more such people there are, the better. So in the future, Yun Du City will truly be as rich as a nation! Such people are very welcome in our Alchemy Association!"
Master Zhang burst into laughter upon hearing this, "Lord Mo, you are truly wise! You are as great as the high leader of Gao Lao Zhuang!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head, saying, "Lord City Master, I'm actually afraid they won't come to cause trouble. It would be quite boring!"
Master Ye thought to himself upon hearing this, "Luckily, I don't have such thoughts. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how much of a price I would have to pay. Mo Wenjie is a devil; one should never cross paths with him unnecessarily. Otherwise, one might not even know how they died!"
Ye Qiuyang looked at Mo Wenjie with a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart. "Mo, you just accept Grandpa's 10 million crystal stones like that? Can't you feel heartache yourself? Ask yourself, do you have any moral boundaries?"
Mo Wenjie looked at Ye Qiuyang and said, "Are you still able to maintain some dignity? What gives you the right to talk to me about morals? You bully others, behave arrogantly, kidnap women without any scruples, and do whatever evil deeds. With your kind of person, how dare you talk about morals with me? How can you even open your mouth? I'm really impressed by your shamelessness. Even pigs and dogs are a hundred times better than you. It's clear that you have no sense of self-awareness. It seems that you truly don't know what it means to be 'big feet and ugly face'!"
Ye Qiuyang was speechless after Mo Wenjie's rebuke. He didn't know how to counteract, and he pointed at Mo Wenjie, "You...you...you." He was at a loss for words. His face turned red as he felt incredibly frustrated and helpless. He wanted to fight Mo Wenjie so badly, but he knew it was impossible. All he could do was suppress his anger and frustration. Now that his grandfather needed to maintain a good relationship with Mo Wenjie, if he provoked Mo Wenjie, his grandfather would definitely punish him. He thought about it and decided against it. It was better to just endure the frustration, at least it wasn't painful. But if he were to engage in a verbal confrontation with Mo Wenjie, he didn't know if Mo Wenjie would actually punch him or not, but his grandfather would definitely punish him. Since there was no real reason for him to be provoked in the first place, he thought it best to just let it go!
Mo Wenjie saw that Ye Qiuyang was speechless and also didn't want to argue with him. He spoke to Qian Xiaoyong, saying, "Brother, aren't you currently not busy? I want you to do something for me, of course, I will pay you. Xiao Ya Wen and the other three women want to manage the Alchemy Association, but I don't have time to manage it myself. So I decided to hand over the management of the Alchemy Association to them four. Of course, when I have time, I will still visit. They four women and eight girls named Mei Lan Zhu Jujin are working there. I'm still worried that someone might cause trouble there. Therefore, I decided to let Brother's subordinates be responsible for their safety. Of course, I will definitely pay them."
Qian Xiaoyong shook his head upon hearing this, saying, "Brother, what are you talking about? We're brothers; do we need to talk about that kind of thing? Your business is my business. Sending a few people to protect the Alchemy Association is part of my job. Protecting the safety of the people of Yun Du City is our responsibility and obligation. You don't need to worry about this matter, brother!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head at Qian Xiaoyong, saying, "Brother, you're right. Protecting the citizens of Yun Du City is your responsibility. However, what you're suggesting is not just patrols; you need to have actual soldiers stationed at the Alchemy Association. This would cost the government a lot of money, so we'll just fund the Alchemy Association ourselves. That's settled, brother. No more talking about it. That's it!"
Master Zhang burst into laughter upon hearing this, "Mo Association Director, you're telling me that my Yun Du City can't even afford the salaries of the soldiers who are supposed to protect the Alchemy Association? Is Yun Du City really this poor? I am, after all, the City Master of Yun Du City. I have the final say on this matter. You two don't need to think about it anymore. The salaries for the soldiers protecting the Alchemy Association will be paid by my mansion!"
At this moment, Xiao Yawen and the other three women also arrived here!
Master Zhang saw Xiao Yawen and the other four women come here and immediately greeted them, saying, "Ladies, are you here to see Mo Association Director? Is there something important that you need to discuss with him? We might need to step aside for a bit."
Xiao Yawen, upon hearing this, laughed and said to Mo Wenjie, "Lord City Master, you're teasing us. This is a bit disrespectful for your age. We treat you as an elder."
Master Zhang hurriedly shook his head, "Oh, my mistake! My mistake! I hope the Mo ladies will forgive me!"
Jiang Yu Rou hurriedly shook her head, bowed respectfully, and said, "Lord City Master is being modest. How could we dare to be disrespectful to him?"
Ye Qiuyang looked at Xiao Ya Wen, Jiang Yu Rou, Ding Yan, and Tuo Ba Yingying in his heart. He felt particularly unbalanced. What does Mo Wenjie have? Why do so many beautiful women like him? He himself is the grandson of the city lord of Xingluo City, a standard Generation III official. Why don't any beautiful women like me? I have to go and grab them. It's said that people compare and die, and goods compare and are thrown away. Nowadays, women are all what? Why do they have to choose an ordinary life when they have an easy life? I really don't understand! He looked at Xiao Ya Wen in his heart, feeling very unwilling. Such a beautiful woman, why should she follow him?
