Chapter 20 Golden Thunder Bamboo
Chapter 20 Golden Thunder Bamboo
The Six-Hall Connection, the top floor of the VIP building.
There is an elegant room called "Stargazing Abode".
Qingfeng had booked the room well in advance and installed soundproofing measures.
He also ordered people to prepare the finest spiritual tea and several exquisite spiritual fruits and pastries.
As the appointed time approached, a refined and elegant figure appeared precisely at the pavilion entrance; it was none other than Wang Heng, the sect leader of the Miaoyin Sect.
He changed into a simple blue robe, which added to his refined and scholarly air.
"Brother Wang, please."
Qingfeng stood up to greet him, his smile warm and friendly.
"Young Master, you're too kind."
Wang Heng bowed and entered.
The two sat down and exchanged a few polite words about the scenery of Kui Xing Island and the grand occasion of the Double Saints Festival.
They also chatted about some interesting stories from the southwestern sea area and Tianxing City.
For a moment, the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious.
Wang Heng was witty and knowledgeable.
Qingfeng responded appropriately, occasionally offering some unique insights that made Wang Heng look at him with new respect for his knowledge and demeanor.
They believed that this boy was far beyond the reach of ordinary playboys.
After three rounds of tea, Qingfeng put down his jade cup and got down to business.
"Brother Wang, the reason I invited you today is that I have a business deal I would like to discuss with your company."
Qingfeng then got down to business.
"Oh? I wonder what kind of business it is? Young Master, would you like to tell me about it?"
Wang Heng took a sip of tea.
"Our Qingyang Sect possesses several spiritual vein medicinal gardens."
These high-quality spiritual herbs, especially those that are hundreds or even thousands of years old, can be produced in stable quantities every year.
Previously, most of the goods were consumed internally or traded locally. Now, I want to introduce some of the high-quality goods to the First Market of Tianxing City.
Qingfeng looked at Wang Heng as he finished speaking.
Wang Heng paused slightly in his teacup, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
Millennium-old spiritual herbs are a form of hard currency everywhere, and are something that alchemists dream of.
If a stable supply can be secured, it will not only bring huge profits to Miaoyinmen, but also allow them to expand their network and enhance their influence in the market.
"What does Young Master mean?"
Wang Heng put down his teacup, becoming more serious.
"I would like to ask Brother Wang's Miaoyin Sect to be the exclusive agent of my Qingyang Sect in Tianxing City."
Qingfeng looked directly at Wang Heng, his tone frank.
"I will be responsible for providing the goods, and the price can be slightly lower than the market price, while guaranteeing the quality."
Your company will be responsible for sales in Tianxing City and the surrounding areas. We'll split the profits 70/30, how about that?
"Seventy-three points..."
Wang Heng was taken aback; this condition was somewhat unexpected.
In such exclusive distribution agreements, the supplier usually takes the lion's share.
Even if it was said to be an 80/20 split, he would have made a huge profit. I never expected it to be a 70/30 split!
Qingfeng's move seems more like a concession to make friends.
"I am flattered by your kindness, young master."
"But... with such a generous profit, does the young master have any other requests?"
"Of course there are requirements."
Qingfeng smiled slightly.
"Firstly, long-term contracts need to be signed to ensure a stable supply."
Secondly, sales accounts must be clear and transparent, and regularly audited.
Thirdly, regarding the occasional need of our Qingyang Sect for certain resources or intelligence unique to Tianxing City, we hope the Miaoyin Sect can provide them with priority and preferential treatment.
Upon hearing Qingfeng's offer, Wang Heng pondered for a moment, quickly calculating in his mind.
These three conditions are not excessive; on the contrary, they show the other party's sincerity.
A long-term, stable supply of millennium-old spiritual herbs is enough to elevate the status of the Miaoyin Sect in Tianxing City.
"Young Master is straightforward and his conditions are fair."
Wang Heng smiled and raised his glass in greeting.
"I, Wang, agree to this! I wish to cooperate happily with Qingyang Sect!"
"Haha, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
Qingfeng also raised his cup, and the two of them drank tea instead of wine in one gulp.
Then, Qingfeng took the opportunity to propose some ideas about exchanging resources between Tianxing City and the special minerals and monster materials of the southwestern sea area.
Wang Heng listened attentively, offering suggestions from time to time.
The two sides had a very pleasant conversation, and the cooperation became even more successful.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Qingfeng changed the subject.
"To be honest, Brother Wang, I have a personal matter I'd like to ask you to keep an eye out for."
"Oh? Young Master, please speak freely. As long as it is within my power, I will do my best."
Wang Heng was in a good mood at the time and answered very readily.
"I have only recently condensed my Golden Core and need to refine my natal magic weapon."
The family's inherited cultivation technique is quite compatible with the lightning attribute, so they have been searching for a top-grade lightning attribute spiritual material called Golden Lightning Bamboo.
This item is extremely rare; our Qingyang Sect has searched for it for many years without success.
I've heard that Tianxing City is a gathering place for rare treasures from all over the world. Brother Wang, you have extensive connections. I wonder if you could keep an eye out for some of them on my behalf?
If you can find it, you will be richly rewarded!
Qingfeng spoke sincerely, his gaze fixed intently on Wang Heng.
"Golden Thunder Bamboo?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Heng raised an eyebrow slightly.
He showed a hint of surprise, then fell into deep thought.
Qingfeng's heart stirred slightly, but he remained outwardly calm, though he knew perfectly well what was going on in his mind.
Father-in-law, stop acting. I know you have the Golden Thunder Bamboo, which you planned to keep as Wang Ning's dowry.
Looking at Wang Heng's micro-expressions, Qingfeng sighed, "Old ginger is spicier."
The acting was superb.
After a moment, Wang Heng seemed to have made up his mind.
"It's quite a coincidence that... I happen to have a section of this item in my possession."
"What?"
Qingfeng is also a skilled actor; he showed a mixture of surprise and delight, leaning forward slightly.
"Brother Wang, is what you say true? May I have a look? No, no, if you'd be willing to part with it, Brother Wang, name your price!"
Seeing Qingfeng's enthusiastic response, Wang Heng smiled inwardly. The other party was indeed in dire need of this item to refine his natal magic weapon.
That cunning kid, that business deal we just had wasn't just a prelude to this, was it?
"Young Master, don't be anxious. That section of Golden Thunder Bamboo has intact roots and is a rare and precious material."
I did not carry this item with me, but kept it securely in the Tianxing City secret vault.
"After the Demon Suppression Ceremony concludes and we return to Tianxing City, we will retrieve it. As for the exchange terms..."
He paused, stroked his short beard, and smiled.
"Regarding the matter of becoming an agent for the spiritual herbs we just discussed, I, Wang, have already taken advantage of the young master."
Although this golden thunder bamboo is rare, what does it matter compared to a long-term partnership?
"At that time, young master, you can give me something of equal value; consider it making friends."
These words were a strategic retreat, demonstrating both sincerity and a favor.
"Brother Wang, you are very generous. Here's what I'll do: after the Demon Suppression Ceremony is over, I'll personally make a trip to Tianxing City and visit the Miaoyin Sect for a few days."
I happen to know a little about music, so we can exchange ideas then.
Qingfeng's face lit up with even more joy, and he quickly cupped his hands in greeting.
His tactic is to take advantage of the situation; the old fox uses retreat as a means of advance, so I'll stick to him.
Not only do they want your Jin Leizhu, but they also want to kidnap your daughter, Wang Ning.
A young girl with a pure yin body, possessing an excellent physique for cultivating demonic arts, what kind of musical technique is she cultivating?
This is an absolute waste of resources.
If Wang Ning were to mentor him, he would directly train him into a top-tier demon! Wang the Demon!
"Alright, let's wait until the Demon Suppression Ceremony is over and then go back to Tianxing City together."
Wang Heng's lips twitched slightly; this kid was shameless.
They want to go to Tianxing City with me?
Do you think you can ask someone for something by going to their house?
However, with the finalization of the Jin Leizhu deal, the two became even closer.
