Full-Time Mage: Double Return, Niu Ma Mo Fan

Chapter 43 Worth Billions! Li Man's Compromise!

Inside the dilapidated warehouse, demon materials were piled up into a small mountain.

What is a rare treasure in the eyes of a magician is like freshly harvested crops on a farm here.

This scene almost made Bai Zangfeng, who was used to all kinds of big scenes, drop his jaw!

Is this small mountain full of demonic materials like strange bones?
How many demons would you have to kill to get this?!

Mu Zhuoyun stared at the mountain of demon materials, rubbing his eyes repeatedly in disbelief.

He even wondered if he was too old and his eyesight was failing, mistaking the landlord's grain for demonic materials.

That's way too much!!!

Even some powerful families might not be able to gather this many demon materials within a few days!

He wasn't the only one shocked.

Even Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and the others, who already knew about their gains, stared wide-eyed at this moment.

I knew there would be a lot, but I didn't know there would be this many!

This place alone must be worth hundreds of millions!
"Let's go, there's another one." Meng Qiuzhen said nonchalantly, the demon materials here were only part of the harvest.

Demon materials take up the most space and are the least valuable.

He wouldn't have bothered to take it out if it weren't for wanting to show off his muscles.

The group was taken to another warehouse in shock, where more than a hundred containers for storing spirit essences were placed.

Still reeling from her earlier shock, Mu Nuxin stepped forward to examine him closely with a puzzled look.

The next moment, her pupils dilated instantly.

"These are spirit essences?!?!"

Meng Qiuzhen nodded slightly: "About that, about a hundred servants and thirty warriors."

His words sent a collective gasp through everyone!
this!!!!!
The market value for servant-level items is 500 million, while for general-level items it's at least 2500 million.

The total here alone exceeds one billion!
Meng Qiuzhen simply smiled at this; what was in the warehouse was only a part, the majority was still in the Yin-Yang diagram.

The total harvest and return from Dongting Lake yielded nearly seven hundred servant-level spirits and more than seventy warrior-level spirits.

The commander-level beings have no true essence, only fourteen fragmented essences.

He will need to find a way to condense it into a spirit.

If you add up the materials and the essence, the gains from the Dongting Lake training are at least six billion!
Sometimes, even when you dream of finding truth, you feel a sense of awe.

He's only in his early twenties and is a mid-level student.

Shouldn't they be working hard at Pearl Academy, vying for hundreds of thousands of spirit seed fragments?

How come you're counting billions here?
That's perhaps the charm of cheating—it's just so illogical.

Thanks to the Thunder God Body and Mo Fan, who is a double treasure trove.

Only by combining these two can such a rich harvest be achieved.

"It's not easy for them to come all this way, so let's give each of them a servant's spirit as a congratulatory gift."

Meng Qiuzhen asked Liu Xian to give each person present a spirit.

"Is this what a nouveau riche looks like?"

Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan exchanged a glance and couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

Is it possible for a human to casually give away millions of spirit essences as a congratulatory gift?
Is this the kind of thing that someone like Meng Qiuzhen, who wouldn't do anything without a profit motive, would do?
His unusual behavior shows that Meng Qiuzhen is truly well-fed.

Now they've all learned how to throw money around.
At the scene, people such as Bai Zangfeng and Mu Zhuoyun were too shocked to speak.

Using a spirit as a congratulatory gift, how extravagant!
This is an absurd amount of money being thrown around!

People have unconsciously started labeling Meng Qiuzhen as a nouveau riche.

Actually, Meng Qiuzhen's behavior wasn't because he was a nouveau riche who couldn't control himself; he was simply expressing his gratitude to everyone who came to support him.

Ten or eight servant-level spirits are nothing to him now; he has a whole bunch of them in his Yin-Yang Diagram.
However, calling him a nouveau riche isn't entirely wrong.
Moreover, his things are not so easy to take.

Now he has joined forces with multiple entities here, mainly to use them to utilize the resources obtained from Dongting Lake.

They also wanted to establish connections with various forces, hoping they would help the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce avoid disasters.

Once we become a community of shared interests, if my interests are harmed, yours will also be harmed. Will powerful families just stand by and watch?

The spirit is just a small gift; the real show is yet to come.

……

"Could this be a Commander-level alien bone?" Li Man exclaimed in surprise.

He walked to a display table that was tens of meters long and examined a pair of enormous bone wings.

This bone wing hasn't undergone any processing; it's the coarsest kind of raw material.

Li Man was equally shocked by the vast resources that Meng Qiuzhen had displayed! But this was exactly what he wanted to achieve with his trip; there was something seriously wrong with Meng Qiuzhen!
As previously suggested by Advisor Shao, Li Man investigated Meng Qiuzhen's background after returning.

Sure enough, we discovered some significant problems.

It just so happened that she had heard about the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce before she left, which is why she came here.

I saw these demon materials and essences!
Isn't this the answer?
Although we don't know what happened, the chaos in Dongting Lake is definitely related to Meng Qiuzhen!

This kid was the one who orchestrated it all, and now he's trying to sell the stolen goods!

“Yes, it’s at the commander level,” Zhao Manyan explained, standing next to Li Man.

"This thing could definitely be made into a Winged Magic Tool, but Old Meng just won't sell it to me. What a pity."

"."

After a moment of silence, Li Man continued, "This is from the giant lizard pseudo-dragon, isn't it?"

She could tell where the materials came from at a glance.

Zhao Manyan didn't reply, but just gave an awkward smile.

Seeing this, Li Man directly asked Meng Qiuzhen:

"The chaos in Dongting Lake is related to you, isn't it? You might even have orchestrated it yourself."

He denied everything without even thinking about it.

"No."

None of my business.

If you insist on calling them victims, that they were persecuted by Lu Nian...
Their words drew the attention of the others.

Dean Xiao, in particular, was very curious about what Meng Qiuzhen had done at Dongting Lake.

However, after seeing the materials here, he already had his answer.

Now it remains to be seen how Meng Qiuzhen will deal with the military.

After all, the victims of the chaos in Dongting Lake were the military headquarters of Biyi City and the forces around Dongting Lake.

"These materials and essences all belong to the Lizardhead Giant Clan."

"And as far as I know, you were also in Dongting Lake during the Dongting Lake Rebellion."

Li Man voiced her question.

"Would you believe me if I said I found it?" Meng Qiuzhen denied it.

Whenever Li Man asked, he would deny it.

Without direct evidence pointing to him, he won't admit it; of course, even if there is evidence, he still won't admit it.
Based on the materials on site, he didn't believe that the military headquarters of Biyi City could do anything to him.

"Leaving the Military Intelligence Bureau, if you want to invest in the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, that's fine."

"But if you want to know where these things came from, they were found during training."

Meng Qiuzhen responded domineeringly to Li Man's questions.

Mo Fan and his companions, who had accompanied him in slaughtering the demon race, looked at each other in bewilderment.

The people on the other side are from the Winged Army!
"Using the military to pressure me won't work. Don't you even look at who's standing next to me?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze and saw Dean Xiao's kind face.

Li Man's lips twitched; she had almost forgotten that this guy was still a mid-level student at Pearl Academy.

The others were speechless. Who among the intermediate-level students could cause such chaos in Dongting Lake?
Everyone subconsciously stopped treating him as an intermediate-level student.

But Meng Qiuzhen is indeed a student at Mingzhu Academy, which is quite baffling.

The university's banner isn't just something to be hidden away; if it's useful, then it's pulled out and tugged at.
A mix of emotions swirled in Li Man's heart, ultimately culminating in a long sigh.

She knows the truth now.

But the matter will likely be left unresolved.

"Next time, could you please give me advance notice?"

Faced with a stunningly beautiful female Kuomintang agent, Meng Qiuzhen remained silent.

Even though everyone present knew he did it, and even though all the resources on site pointed to him, he just wouldn't admit it.

I'll take the benefits.

I won't seek the limelight.

Just don't bother me with any trouble.
"Fine, it's the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, right? I'll personally invest 20 million."

Li Man took out a diamond card and handed it to Meng Qiuzhen. Since they were already here, they might as well invest a little.

"You don't think it's too little, do you?"
