Chapter 98 Water Park
"Boss Shen is straightforward, so I'll just say it straight."

Huo Kangan put away the shock on his face and regained his businessman's shrewdness. "I want all these goods. As for the price, Boss Shen, please feel free to name your price. As long as it's reasonable, I will never bargain."

Shen Qiu walked to the piles of golden bars and stroked them gently with his hand. The light reflected by the gold bars shone in his eyes, as if shining with endless wealth.

"That's straightforward. In that case, I won't be polite to Mr. Huo. How about 70,000 taels of gold?" Shen Qiu paused and quoted a price that made Huo Kangan frown slightly.

"Seventy thousand taels?"

Huo Kangan hesitated for a moment, "Boss Shen, this price is a bit..."

Shen Qiu said calmly, "Boss Huo, this is not how business is calculated. Think about it. What is the situation in Northern Xinjiang right now? They are in urgent need of supplies. If it takes ten days or half a month, what will the soldiers eat and drink? When the army of the Great Sheng Dynasty attacks us, who will bear the loss?"

"..."

"Boss Shen is indeed a man who can do great things. All right, 70,000 taels is 70,000 taels!"

After a moment's silence, Huo Kangan gritted his teeth and finally agreed.

Shen Qiu completed the transaction with Huo Kangan on the spot. He then took off an antique ring from his finger, wiped it lightly, and it suddenly shone with golden light.

In an instant, the floor of the private room was filled with golden bars, and the dazzling light almost blinded people's eyes.

Even though Shen Qiu had expected this, he couldn't help but gasp. Huo Kangan was indeed the president of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, and he was very generous.

"Qingluan, count."

Shen Qiu turned his head slightly and gave instructions to Qingluan beside him.

Qingluan walked forward expressionlessly, waved her slender jade hand over the pile of gold bars, and an invisible energy spread out, and the gold bars were automatically arranged in order, with each one exactly in place.

Her cold voice echoed in the private room: "Reporting to the master, the total is 70,000 taels of gold, not a penny less."

"Okay, Boss Huo is indeed a trustworthy person. This batch of goods is yours."

Seeing Huo Kangan step forward and use the ring to clear out the goods, Shen Qiu nodded with satisfaction, then pressed a mechanism on the table, and the wall behind him slowly closed again, and the warehouse and the goods inside seemed to have never appeared.

Huo Kangan looked at this scene, and a barely perceptible gleam flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal and said with a smile: "Boss Shen is indeed a good man. This way, I am relieved."

"Happy cooperation!"

Shen Qiu raised his teacup and gestured.

Seeing this, Huo Kangan also raised his teacup. The two of them clinked their cups lightly and drank the tea in their cups.

……

Far away in the Great Xuan Dynasty, deep in a dark and damp forest, the smell of blood filled the air, making people sick.

The corpses of several monsters lay scattered on the ground, and their blood dyed the surrounding land red.

These monsters were once the dominant forces in this forest, but now they have become victims of the sword and died miserably.

A thin young man stood next to the pile of corpses. He was wearing black and had a pale face. There was a hideous scar on his left cheek, which almost occupied half of his face. He looked particularly terrifying.

"Hehe, the demon pills of these beasts are of pretty good quality."

The scarred young man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellowed teeth, looking like an evil ghost ready to devour anyone.

"Brother, we have already hunted so many monsters, which is enough to report. Why don't we go back in case we attract more powerful monsters?"

A short and fat evil cultivator asked cautiously, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Coward, if you're scared, just get out! Don't get in the way here..." the scarred young man roared, with a fierce look in his eyes.

The short and fat evil cultivator was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He quickly got up, lowered his head and dared not speak again.

"Hmph, Chen Jianyu, just wait for me. Soon, I will make you pay for your blood debt with blood!"

The scarred young man said this through gritted teeth, his eyes filled with resentment and hatred.

He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, as if he had foreseen Chen Jianyu's tragic death, with a perverted pleasure on his face. ...

Fanlou is still bustling today, with guests coming and going in an endless stream. The aroma of wine, tea and various delicacies mixed together, filling the entire Fanlou.

Xu Jiang was in a good mood today, and he ordered the signature "Zuixian Wine" from Laofanlou. He poured it and drank it by himself, feeling very happy.

Suddenly, he saw an acquaintance, it was Zhao Tian, ​​the head of the Zhao family, who was also one of the four richest businessmen in Tianhuang City.

"Mr. Zhao, why do you have time to come here and drink today? Aren't you afraid that your wife will punish you by making you kneel on the washboard when you get home?"

Seeing this, Xu Jiang stepped forward and said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Brother Xu, you're joking. I heard that Fanlou has come up with something new, so I came here to take a look." Zhao Tian laughed, raised his glass to gesture, then drank it all in one gulp.

"Oh, what's new?" Xu Jiang asked. He hadn't noticed it since he just came to drink.

"Yes, look, it's right next to it. They say that the young men in the city have been having a blast there lately."

Zhao Sheng pursed his lips and motioned Xu Jiang to look outside.

Following Zhao Tian's gaze, Xu Jiang saw that next to Fanlou, there was a building with a peculiar style. A plaque with the words "Water Park" was hung at the door, and many maids in cool clothes were welcoming guests at the door.

"Oh, let's go take a look together?"

Xu Jiang suddenly became interested and walked out.

Seeing this, Zhao Tian hesitated for a moment and then followed.

……

After a while, when Xu Jiang came out of the "Water Park", it was already an hour later.

He wiped the water off his face and couldn't help but sigh: "This Fan Lou is really getting better and better at playing!"

"That's right. Sliding down from such a high place on the slide was really thrilling. And the surfing almost broke my old bones." Zhao Tian also had an excited look on his face and obviously had a lot of fun.

"No, I have to bring Yizhou here to see what he is like, so he won't keep calling me an old-fashioned guy."

Xu Jiang suddenly thought of his disappointing son and immediately came up with an idea.

Then the scene changed, and the father and son came to the "water park", only to see even more people inside.

There are all kinds of water activities, including thrilling high-altitude slides, shallow water areas suitable for parent-child play, and various peculiarly shaped hot spring pools, which are dazzling.

When Xu Yizhou saw this scene, he was unable to move. He was so excited that he pulled Xu Jiang inside like a monkey.

"Oh my god, Dad, this place is so fun!"

Xu Yizhou changed into swimming trunks and couldn't wait to jump into a huge swimming pool, splashing high into the water.

"You kid, be careful and don't drown!" Xu Jiang shook his head helplessly. This kid really never grows up.

"Dad, come quickly, let's go play on that!" Xu Yizhou pointed at a towering slide not far away and shouted excitedly.

Xu Jiang looked up and saw that the slide was almost as high as the building. Sliding down from it must have been incredibly fast. His legs suddenly felt weak.

"This... this is too high, right? How about we try something else?" Xu Jiang said timidly.

"You're a coward. If you don't go, I'll go by myself." Xu Yizhou didn't care about anything else. He left Xu Jiang and ran towards the slide.

"Hey, you little brat, wait for me."

Seeing this, Xu Jiang had no choice but to follow.

The father and son climbed to the top of the slide and looked at the almost vertical slide below. Xu Jiang was so scared that his legs went weak and his face turned pale. He held on to the handrail tightly and did not dare to look down.
