"So that's it. Wanbao Pavilion's business has been booming in recent years, but my uncle also knows that our Shuanglu Island has many properties in the city that need my careful management. After Wanbao Pavilion is on the right track, I will hand it over to my subordinates. I'll take care of it next time. I only go and take a look at it every now and then. I haven't looked at the accounts carefully. If there's anything wrong, please don't blame me, uncle."
Ling Tianxing's tone was respectful, his eyes looking at Li Qingque from beginning to end but not looking at Zhang Qian next to Li Qingque, as if he didn't see this person.
Zhang Qian's eyes narrowed. He was a man of three generations, and his mind was cunning. After hearing Ling Tianxing's words, he knew that there was a mystery in the account books that Yu Xuanji had taken away, and there were probably many false accounts.
"How could I blame you?" Li Qingque sighed and said: "If it weren't for your help to take care of it, Wanbao Pavilion might have closed long ago. I have been in retreat for all these years, and you can manage Wanbao Pavilion so prosperously. I should Thank you. But now that I have been released from seclusion, and I have also recruited a junior brother, and I am about to revitalize the Demon Refining Island, I would like to take back the Wanbao Pavilion and run it myself."
A flash of light flashed in Ling Tianxing's eyes: "It turns out that this is what my uncle planned. It's fine. I'll just wait until my uncle Li sees the accounts and sends someone to take over."
"That's good if you think so. By the way, this is my junior brother Zhang Qian. You should have never seen him."
Li Qingque pointed at Zhang Qian and introduced him.
Ling Tianxing's face immediately showed a look of surprise and admiration: "So this is Junior Brother Zhang Qian! Junior Brother Zhang, I've heard of you for a long time. You broke through Shangyuan Bajing Palace in one breath. You're so awesome."
Zhang Qian was amused. He was sure that Ling Tianxing recognized him when he saw him for the first time, but now he looked like he didn't recognize him and didn't know what he was thinking.
"How dare you, how dare you, it should be because I have admired the famous name for a long time. I have long heard that Senior Brother Ling is good at refining alchemy and refining weapons. Coincidentally, I am very interested in the art of refining alchemy and refining weapons. I want to go to Shuanglu Island when I have time. Please give me some advice and study, and then ask Senior Brother Ling to give you some guidance."
Ling Tianxing smiled inexplicably: "Oh? Junior brother is interested in alchemy and weapon refining? This way is not easy to learn, so there is no problem in giving guidance. Whether you can learn it by the time depends on everyone's qualifications and understanding, and if you want to learn alchemy and weapon refining, Tao, it’s best to have a fire spirit, if not, you have to refine a kind of divine fire.”
Zhang Qian's heart moved. He really didn't know anything about the method of refining alchemy and refining weapons. There was nothing related to refining weapons and elixirs in the insights of Patriarch Hundong. The prehistoric world is full of immortal medicines and fruits. Eating any one of them has great benefits, and there is no need to refine it into elixirs. That is, after the Lich Catastrophe, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered, and the innate spiritual energy was completely lost. All the immortal medicines and fruits were withered, and then the way of alchemy arose.
So much so that in the early days of the prehistoric period, there was no way to study the great power of alchemy and weapon refining, and neither did the ancestors of Hundong.
In the early days of the prehistoric period, there was innate spiritual energy everywhere, and any weed had considerable medicinal power, so there was no need for alchemy techniques.
"I still have some things to do, so I won't keep you any longer. Uncle Master will wait until you finish reading the accounts and send someone to explain them to me."
Ling Tianxing showed a gentle smile, cupped his hands and turned to leave.
When he was far away, Zhang Qian squinted his eyes and said, "Senior sister, believe it or not, there must be a lot of false accounts in Wanbao Pavilion. You have been in seclusion for so many years and have not checked them. It is not easy to make some false accounts. "
Li Qingque glared at him lightly: "Do you think I can't think of it? It's better to have Wanbao Pavilion closed than to close Wanbao Pavilion. When we return to Demon Refining Island, you can help me take a look and come up with some ideas. How can we manage Wanbao Pavilion after we take it back?"
Having stopped talking, Li Qingque led Zhang Qianjian around the various locations of Jianhu Palace and introduced them in detail, allowing Zhang Qian to have a deep understanding of Jianhu Palace. Before returning to Demon Refining Island, Zhang Qianjian Qian Te went to the void island he chose to take a look.
They found that one hundred warriors and Taoist soldiers had already carried stones and wood piled up like a hill, and each one was using various strange construction spells to build the mansion Zhang Qian wanted at an extremely fast speed.
The hundred-foot sword rainbow rumbled down and flew to the top of the fairy mountain on Demon Refining Island.
"Island Master, I have already read Wanbao Pavilion's accounts, and there seems to be something wrong..."
Yu Xuanji held a jade letter with a hesitant expression on her face.
Li Qingque frowned slightly: "Is it inappropriate? Let me see."
He reached out and took the jade letter in his hand, and with a sweep of his consciousness, after a while, Li Qingque snorted coldly, his eyes unhappy.
"What a Ling Tianxing. No wonder he said that before. It turns out that this account is a mess!"
Zhang Qian took it and took a look and found out what kind of accounts were here. It would be an exaggeration to say that it was a mess. Not only were the accounting records inside not organized, but the profits from the sale of various treasures were also unclear and even the same. The amount of spiritual stones produced by growing things and selling them varies several times.
"Island owner..."
Seeing Li Qingque's gloomy face, Yu Xuanji said tentatively. Unexpectedly, Li Qingque suddenly showed deep fatigue, and the flaming fighting spirit in his eyes also dissipated a lot. He said hoarsely: "All of these people are... Thinking of bullying me, we don’t know how many advantages we have been taken advantage of over the years on Demon Refining Island!”
Zhang Gan's face condensed and he comforted: "Sister, don't be sad. Revitalizing Demon Refining Island cannot be achieved in a short time. Things have to be done step by step. Don't worry, those who take advantage of our Demon Refining Island , I will make them spit it out sooner or later."
Li Qingque shook his head slightly, and after a while he ordered: "Xuanji, tomorrow you will take over the Wanbao Pavilion with the accounts, and temporarily arrange it for you, the mermaid clan, to run it. Also, these days, I happened to scan the Demon Refining Island with my consciousness. I found many outer sect disciples misbehaving on my Demon Refining Island, what’s going on?”
Li Qingque was a little angry when he said this.
Yu Xuanji frowned and said: "Our Demon Refining Island has no outer disciples for a long time. Our Jianhu Palace's hundreds of thousands of outer disciples are all concentrated on Wentian Island, Kanli Island, and Guiyuan Island. They belong to our Demon Refining Island." There are no outer disciples of the same lineage at all. You have been in seclusion for these years. As the demon soldier groups that originally belonged to our Demon Refining Island have left, we, the mermaid clan, alone cannot control the entire island. Now there are tens of thousands of demon soldiers on the Demon Refining Island. Not to mention that the Mu Lingtian is all deserted, the outer disciples from the other three islands have the courage to come to my Demon Refining Island to collect elixirs privately and capture spirit beasts. There are even some people who are bold enough to want to capture our mermaid clan. ."
After a pause, Yu Xuanji continued: "That's not all. The specialty of our Demon Refining Island, the Demon Refining Yun Divine Lotus Root, has been harvested wantonly by the outer disciples on the other three islands. Now it is almost extinct."
"presumptuous!"
Li Qingque slammed the table suddenly, anger rising in his eyes, which startled Yu Xuanji.
"Hmph, I will activate the Demon Refining Formation in a moment and seal the Demon Refining Island. Junior brother, you will patrol the island with the demon soldiers in a moment. But there are disciples from the other three islands, so arrest them all!"
Buzz!
A round red formation disk appeared. This formation disk was the formation disk for controlling the demon refining formation.
Li Qingque extended his finger and shot a stream of light into the array, and suddenly dense clouds of fire suddenly appeared over the Demon Refining Island with a radius of thousands of miles.
The fire cloud spread rapidly, completely covering the entire Demon Refining Island almost instantly.
