My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 353 Concentric
"Thank you, I received it. You should take the white jade back. It wasn't easy to collect so much." Chen Mu reluctantly pushed the wooden box to Wang Heyuan.

He originally spread the teachings only to avoid being forced to serve.

Although the white jade was tempting, I never intended to earn Taoist merit by passing on the scriptures, and now it's not appropriate to take the hard-earned money from the three of them.

Wang Heyuan was deeply moved when he saw that Chen Mu seemed genuine.

With a solemn expression, he pushed the wooden box back: "Please, senior brother, accept this."

To put Chen Mushou at ease, Wang Heyuan hesitated for a long time before saying, "Senior brother, you don't need to worry about us. This white jade is not hard to come by."

Is it not difficult to obtain white jade?

What a boastful tone!

Did you rob the General Affairs Bureau's warehouse?
Wang Heyuan gritted his teeth and said, "There's a fat guy secretly buying up the essence of the five grains, and he's charging three times the price the General Affairs Bureau charges. So we..."

"Wait a minute? You said there's a fat guy? And he's bald?!"

Prince Jia Tian?
Is the chubby guy's smuggling business expanding that fast?

“No, that’s not it.” Wang Heyuan shook his head.

Chen Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Then I couldn't help but sigh.

These people are incredibly audacious. The cultivators of Dongling are currently locked in a fierce battle with the other courtyard, yet they still dare to do business with them. They really don't take the Inspection Bureau seriously at all.

He knew Jia Tian after all. If something really went wrong, he might be implicated.

Fortunately not!

Seeing that Chen Mu was interested and showed no unusual expression, Wang Heyuan cautiously asked, "Senior brother, you're not angry with us? That fat man collected the essence of the five grains; he's probably going to sell it to Dongling..."

Chen Mu immediately waved his hand sternly to interrupt: "We have absolutely no idea who he sold it to!"

Wang Heyuan was taken aback, then nodded repeatedly with a big smile: "Haha! Senior brother is right!"

Chen Mu chuckled. Making money? It's not shameful.

Back in Daliang, he also made money by selling counterfeit pills, which wasn't exactly a righteous method.

The atmosphere relaxed, and the three of them stopped looking tense.

Wang Heyuan casually remarked, "That chubby guy with small eyes is really bold, daring to do this kind of business..."

Small-eyed chubby guy?
Chen Mu tensed up!
"You said that fat guy has small eyes?"

"Senior brother, have you seen him? That person certainly has distinctive features: a big face, small eyes, and he's tall and fat. His eyes are already small, and when he smiles, they get squeezed out by his fat. He's unforgettable at first sight," Wang Heyuan said cheerfully.

isn't it? !

"Do you know the person's name?" Chen Mu asked, still hoping for the best.

"They say his name is Gongsun Bai."

Chen Mu: “…”

Hey!
"You know him, senior brother?" Wang Heyuan asked curiously.

"Know him? No, no, no, I don't know him at all!" Chen Mu gritted his teeth.

That's definitely that fatso Shang Huan!

Wasn't that guy honestly running his shop on Yuquan Mountain? When did he come to Yingchou Cliff?
How dare you call Gongsun Bai?

What a fucking audacity!
……

Below Eagle's Sorrow Cliff, in a mountain stronghold in the southwest corner.

The sounds of cooing and gurgling rose and fell.

More than a hundred plump pigs and rabbits gathered together, charging and darting around arrogantly.

Some of them were so irritable that, like fish leaping over the dragon gate, they would repeatedly jump high with their fat heads and big ears.

"Whoa!" Butcher Lu, with a brand-new cleaver at his waist, stood on the outskirts of the pig and rabbit herd, a meaningful smile on his face.

“Others raise pigs and rabbits and it takes at least a month to get them ready for market, but Junior Brother Gongsun can get a batch in ten days or half a month. He’s really good at it.”

Shang Huan smiled with narrowed eyes as well: "I don't have that ability, but my older brothers and sisters each have their own methods."

Lu the butcher looked at the six people not far away.

They were of all shapes and sizes, tall and short, fat and thin, and strange in appearance, yet each of them had a blank expression and exuded a menacing aura.

The way he looked at himself was no different from how he looked at the pigs and rabbits running around the village.

Lu the butcher's fat face twitched, and he dared not continue to probe.

He hurriedly left, carrying the ten pigs and rabbits he had ordered.

"...This person is questioning the origin of the pigs and rabbits." Xu Rao stared in the direction Lu the butcher had left, his narrow eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Let them doubt us. We bought pigs and rabbits so that our fellow disciples on Eagle Sorrow Cliff could have some meat. Who can say we're wrong?" Shang Huan said with a grin.

“But the pigs and rabbits you bought were made from the finest grains,” Yu Lin said in a deep, muffled voice.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu, who had just secretly activated his synesthesia, immediately turned pale.

It really was that fatso!
The cultivators from Dongling are already locked in a fierce battle with the other courtyard, and this guy still dares to aid the enemy?!

"Don't worry, don't worry. At most, he'll guess that we bought pigs and rabbits from the villagers of Dongling Mountain, but he'll never guess what we used to buy them." Shang Huan didn't care at all.

He immediately said with a smug look, "Delivering a single shipment brings back over a hundred pigs and rabbits, worth two or three thousand pieces of white jade. Isn't that more profitable than all of you fighting and killing?"

"Besides, your business with no capital is far more dangerous than that. Whether you get caught or run into a ruthless character who's pretending to be weak, the consequences could be much more serious."

"Fortune favors the bold, let's get rich together!" Shang Huan raised her eyelids, her tone full of temptation.

The six siblings of Wushan exchanged a glance without making a sound.

What they care about is never the risk, but the spell of unity.

"Does Mr. Gongsun know?" Yu Lin asked solemnly.

"I...know!" Shang Huan said with certainty, "How could I not know!"

Lu Ku immediately raised an eyebrow.

That Mr. Gongsun was exceptionally talented and powerful. His speed of mastering the Heart-to-Heart Mantra and the depth of his understanding of it were comparable to its creator.

They had escaped from Lengyue Mountain together before, so they were quite familiar with that Mr. Gongsun.

He is indeed very capable, but he is also very cautious.

Would he agree to let Shang Huan commit the crime against the wind?

"He agreed to let you sell detection artifacts?" Wu Ruo asked with a gentle expression.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu, who was connected by synesthesia, felt a chill run down his spine.

I heard the shady shopkeeper of Hongcaotang ramble on before, saying that someone was selling magic artifacts to cultivators from Dongling.

At that time, Chen Mu felt that he had already warned Shang Huan that it could not possibly be him.

But damn it, it really was him!
The East Ridge is so lively, and this fatso even had a part in it?!
If the inspection bureau traces him back to me, the villa owner will kill me before Sun Jian can even make a move!
"Sister, how could I dare to sell a detection artifact without Mr. Gongsun's permission?" Shang Huan quickly and carefully explained.

"Mr. Gongsun's words are always concise and profound. I listened carefully and pondered deeply, and finally understood." Shang Huan said with a face full of pride and smugness, "He doesn't allow me to sell the Wood Spirit, but as for the rest... it's up to you!"

I admit to the first half, but how the hell did you figure out the second half?!
You're quite pleased with yourself?!

The Seven Souls Return to Their Origin!

Then Shang Huan rolled her eyes, a smile on her face, and suddenly fainted.

The six siblings from Wushan froze on the spot.

……

Inside the wooden building, under the window sill.

Chen Mu stared blankly at the waterfall outside the window; even the coconut milk coffee-flavored soup he had just made didn't taste good anymore.

After escaping Lengyue Mountain together, the six Wu siblings learned of Gongsun Sheng's true identity.

From the Tongtianhe Lower Courtyard onwards, Shang Huan had been in contact with him.

If either of these two sides has a problem, you'll inevitably face trouble.

Should we make them stay home obediently and not go anywhere?
impossible!
Which cultivator in the world doesn't strive for wealth and the Dharma?

Those people wouldn't be content with mediocrity like I am.

"Sigh...not one of them is easy to deal with!" Chen Mu sighed.

"I can only use the Heart-to-Heart Mantra to check from time to time."

Regardless of whether the individuals are good or bad, he cannot forcibly interfere with their actions.

Even if we intervene, they won't listen.

Just like Shang Huan's reading comprehension skills, which seemed to have been learned from a monster.

Just like back in the Tongtian River Lower Temple, the six siblings of Wushan knew they disliked him and knew about the telepathic connection of the Heart-to-Heart Mantra, yet they still dared to do things that bullied others behind his back.

“If it really comes to an emergency, in order not to be implicated, I might have to…” Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.

He possesses a love lock and a nearly perfect nine-tiered love spell.

If you want to keep your identity secret, hmph...
