1583 Staying the Night

Chi Shuyan replied, “The density of spiritual energy depends on the quality of the tea. If the quality of the tea is good, the texture and taste will naturally be better.”

When Jing Hengran heard this, he no longer dared to look down on the young lady in front of him. Of course, he also knew that the reason why this spirit tea was so rich in quality was partly because of the person who refined the tea leaves, and partly because of the leaves themselves.

At that moment, Jing Hengran thought of how the good spirit tea she had refined before had actually been auctioned off at an extremely low price at the auction house. His heart ached at the thought.

If the Jing family had discovered the benefits of this spirit tea first, they wouldn’t have suffered such a heavy loss and wouldn’t be so pa.s.sive.

Moreover, because of this spirit tea, the Fan family actually got to know her and even had their eye on the spirit tea. If Shuyan really made up her mind to cooperate with the Fan family, Jing Hengran probably wouldn’t be able to stop her. However, this spirit tea, which was good for the body and good for cultivation, had been given to the Fan family for nothing. Jing Hengran wanted to vomit blood just thinking about it.

Who asked that kid from the Fan family to be so lucky?

Not only did he get the spirit tea, he also got Advancement Pills. Although Jing Hengran wasn’t sure if Shuyan had refined the level 6 Advancement Pills, he felt that it still had something to do with her. It was either her or someone behind her.

With the spirit tea and the Advancement Pills put together, Jing Hengran couldn’t help but want to vomit blood.

He just hoped that on account of their past cooperation, Shuyan wouldn’t give all the meat to the Fan family.

At the same time, after this incident, Jing Hengran no longer dared to think highly of himself. When Shuyan produced the spirit tea back then, he should have been cautious and shouldn’t have looked down on it just because of the Jing family’s 100-year-old spirit tea brand. Now, not only was the taste of this spirit tea far better than the Jing family’s, the spiritual energy it contained was also far superior.

The more Jing Hengran thought about it, the more he felt that the young lady in front of him was really a magical person. Not to mention her extraordinary talent in refining medicinal pills, her talent in refining other things was also top-notch. There was actually such a magical young lady?

The more Jing Hengran thought about it, the more his heart burned, and the more he looked at her. It would naturally be best if such a person was part of the Jing family. Barring that, it would be best to rope her in.

A certain thought in Jing Hengran’s heart became clearer and clearer, and his eyes burned as he looked at her. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and got straight to the point. “Shuyan, we’ve known each other for a long time and have been very happy working together. What do you think of a spirit tea deal?”

In fact, he wanted to ask about the level 6 Advancement Pill more, but things had to be done one by one. There was no hurry.

Afraid that she would refuse to cooperate with the Jing family, Jing Hengran hurriedly added, “No matter what your conditions are, my Jing family will agree to them.”

Chi Shuyan already had a plan in mind. She was about to speak, when there was a sudden clap of thunder. Lightning flashed through a crack in the curtains, and it quickly started to pour outside.

Chi Shuyan was suddenly a bit dazed as she listened to the heavy rain and the wind outside the window. Qi Zhenbai should have gone back by now, right? He was driving, so he wouldn’t get wet. Thinking this, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart and replied to Jing Hengran, “Young Master Jing, to be honest, although I really wanted to continue cooperating with the Jing family, the Fan family came to me first about the spirit tea. If the Jing family had approached me first, I naturally wouldn’t have hesitated to consider our friends.h.i.+p and reach an agreement. However, the Fan family approached me first. At that time, I thought about how my spirit tea almost couldn’t be auctioned off at the Jing Auction House. Since someone had taken a fancy to the spirit tea I refined, I naturally couldn’t wait to cooperate with them. In addition, the Jing family has a 100-year-old spirit tea brand, so your spirit tea will never be inferior to mine. So, Young Master Jing, I’m afraid I really can’t say yes to this cooperation!”

The smile on Jing Hengran’s face disappeared completely at her words. At the thought that his 100-year-old spirit tea couldn’t compare with what the young lady in front of him had casually refined, he had complicated feelings and was vexed.

But she was indeed very talented in medicinal pills and spirit tea. At that moment, Jing Hengran regretted not paying attention when she handed the spirit tea over to the Jing family to auction. Otherwise, how could they have suffered such a huge loss while the Fan family profted?

Moreover, the other party’s excuse was very reasonable. Jing Hengran couldn’t find any fault with it at all. She had already said that if the Jing family had been willing to take her spirit tea business back then, she would have naturally considered the Jing family first. However, he and Qian Zhengde hadn’t had much hope for the spirit tea refined by Shuyan back then.

In fact, Qian Zhengde had reported this to him later, but Jing Hengran’s first thought at that time was that although the other party was talented in refining medicinal pills, that didn’t mean that she was talented in refining spirit tea. Not to mention, the Jing family had 100 years of experience in refining spirit tea. Who could compare with that?

At this thought, Jing Hengran’s intestines turned green with regret, but it was useless no matter how much he regretted it. Jing Hengran was still vexed. He gritted his teeth and could only fight for any last benefit for the Jing family. “Shuyan, I know it’s my Jing family’s fault for not considering things thoroughly, but we’ve known each other for a long time and have been very happy working together. If you’re willing to cooperate with the Jing family over the spirit tea, I still have a few 1,000-year-old herbs for refining pills.”

Afraid that she would refuse, Jing Hengran beat her to it. “Shuyan, I also know what it means to keep a promise. I don’t want you to go against your principles. Why don’t you consider the Jing family while you cooperate with the Fan family?”

Jing Hengran was born to do business. At this point, he knew that Shuyan was close to negotiating a deal with the Fan family. She couldn’t go back on her word, so he could only fight for a final benefit for the Jing family, which was that while she cooperated with the Fan family, she wouldn’t forget the Jing family.

Chi Shuyan already had this thought to begin with. She didn’t want to be bound too much to the Jing family’s interests. It was imperative to cooperate with the Fan family, but she couldn’t embarra.s.s the Jing family and fall out with them. It was best for the three parties to cooperate, and she would be the biggest winner. She wanted both the jade mine and the 1,000-year-old herbs.

So, when Jing Hengran suggested this cooperation, Chi Shuyan pretended to think for a moment before agreeing, and said that they would talk about the details of the cooperation later.

When Jing Hengran heard this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. As for the contract, he still had to go back and find out what conditions the Fan family had offered.

After settling this spirit tea deal, Jing Hengran finally relaxed. In the end, he was more interested in whether or not Chi Shuyan was the one who had refined the level 6 Advancement Pills, so he again brought up the level 6 Advancement Pills which the Fan family had.

Chi Shuyan naturally wouldn’t stand out and declare that she was the one who had refined the level 6 Advancement Pills. Although she didn’t say it directly, the way she spoke clearly indicated that while she wasn’t the one who had refined the level 6 Advancement Pills, she was indeed related to it somehow.

Jing Hengran immediately confirmed that there was someone behind her. At the same time, he thought of how the person behind her could actually refine a level 6 pill, and his eyes burned even more.

Chi Shuyan ignored the other party’s burning gaze and continued, “Although I am involved in this matter, I really can’t directly refine level 6 medicinal pills. I can only say that the Fan kid was lucky back then. He had the Golden Lotus, and someone had an eye on it. So, I pulled some strings, and both parties reached an agreement.”

Hearing her acknowledge the matter, even someone as calm as Jing Hengran’s eyes turned red with envy and hatred. He was afraid that for the first time in his life, he would die of jealousy over that Fan kid’s dog sh*t luck.

When he heard that the level 6 medicinal pills hadn’t been refined by her, but by someone else, Jing Hengran didn’t doubt it. If she really was the one who had refined these level 6 medicinal pills, he might really wonder if she was a monster or if she had a secret treasure on her.

But even if she wasn’t the one who had refined these level 6 pills, the way Jing Hengran viewed her at that moment still changed. No wonder she was so talented in alchemy. Sure enough, there was an expert behind her.

At the thought that the person behind her could refine level 6 pills, Jing Hengran couldn’t calm down no matter how much he wanted to. He was even more glad that he had built a good relations.h.i.+p with her back then. Jing Hengran gritted his teeth and finally couldn’t help but ask, “Shuyan, can you still invite that expert to refine high-grade pills?”

Afraid that she would refuse, Jing Hengran immediately said, “My Jing family has a strong foundation. We have the Golden Lotus and other 1,000-year-old herbs. What herbs does that expert lack? My Jing family might be able to provide them!”

Although Chi Shuyan felt extreme envy over the medicinal herbs, she wasn’t blinded by the other party’s conditions. The level 6 Advancement Pills which she had refined for the Fan family had drawn too much attention. She didn’t want to cause a stir, so no matter how good the other party’s conditions were, Chi Shuyan didn’t agree immediately. Besides, the man in front of her was much shrewder and harder to deal with than Fan Yin. It wouldn’t be good if she exposed herself.

She simply said, “Young Master Jing, I can’t agree to this. The other party doesn’t lack herbs for now and doesn’t plan to refine any more pills. If they really lack herbs, you’ll definitely be the first to know!”

Jing Hengran was very disappointed when he heard this. If he had known that the expert needed that Golden Lotus back then, his Jing family wouldn’t have auctioned it off.

But it was useless to regret it now.

The two were almost done talking. Chi Shuyan originally didn’t plan to keep him, but it was raining heavily outside. She hadn’t seen a car outside when she came back just now, so the other party had most likely taken a taxi.

Chi Shuyan deliberated for a while, then called Chef Li over to arrange a guest room for Jing Hengran. In any case, she had taken advantage of their cooperation this time, so letting him stay the night was just barely alright.

“The rain is too heavy. Young Master Jing, stay here for the night!”
