Conceptual melting pot, the fusion of all realms starting from the Qin Dynasty.

After all, if the white porcelain business is done well, the annual income can easily be more than what one could get from swindling and cheating someone out of jade tigers.

“There’s no need!” Chen Hao found Mingzhu, who was like a miser, unexpectedly adorable. “To make money in this business, you need power, connections, and a lot of effort.”

“We should focus our energy on spiritual practice now, and there’s no need to waste so much time on such a small amount of money.”

"It's not worth it!"

"Besides, enough money is enough. There's no need to be obsessed with this." Chen Hao said to Madam Mingzhu with a smile, "Madam Mingzhu, you won't lack money if you follow me in the future, so don't worry about it."

Chen Hao believed in Madam Mingzhu's abilities; if she wanted to, she could definitely seize this white porcelain business right under the noses of Honglian and the Han royal family.

However, as Chen Hao said, wasting time and energy for such a small amount of money is the most undesirable thing in this cultivation world.

However, if I have absolutely reliable subordinates in the future, I might be able to give it a try.

After all, these technologies are not protected by patent laws in this world. Whether someone wants to do this business or not depends on whether they have this technology.

Madam Mingzhu parted her red lips slightly and muttered softly, "To call millions or tens of millions of taels of gold a little money, Xiao Chenhao, you are really surprisingly generous in this regard."

"Hahaha~~!" Chen Hao smiled mysteriously and said to Madam Mingzhu, "Mingzhu, you'll understand this once you spend more time with me."

Crunch~!

Chen Hao pushed open the door and walked out of Madam Mingzhu's palace with her graceful and solemn figure.

No one can tell what the two of them just did in the room.

...

After bidding farewell to Lady Mingzhu, Chen Hao was about to leave the Han Palace when he suddenly encountered Princess Honglian near the entrance.

"Chen Hao, Chen Hao, what are you doing at the Han Palace?"

The moment Princess Honglian saw Chen Hao, her eyes lit up and she ran over.

In recent days, because the city of Xinzheng has been filled with all sorts of martial artists from outside, King Han An has kept Princess Honglian under house arrest for several days to ensure her safety.

She was currently idly strolling around the palace when she encountered Chen Hao, and naturally became extremely excited.

"I have met Princess Honglian."

Chen Hao first bowed slightly to Honglian, then pointed to the painting tools in his hand and said to Honglian with a smile, "Madam Mingzhu seems to really like the portraits I painted for her, so she asked me to paint two more today."

"What?! Two?!" Honglian exclaimed, hands on her hips. "I haven't even asked you to paint a few more portraits, and Mingzhu has already had you paint three?"

"I never expected that old woman, Madam Mingzhu, would actually be quite vain."

Looking at the spoiled Honglian, Chen Hao said with a smile, "It's almost night, Honglian, what are you doing wandering around here?"

"What else can I do?" Princess Honglian kicked the ground angrily. "These past few days, because of what happened outside the palace, I've been confined to the palace. I'm so bored I could die. It's incredibly boring."

Chen Hao teased Princess Honglian, "Could it be that Princess Honglian has already restored that Shangtong ink formula from last time?"

"This is too difficult!" Honglian took out the still messy Shangtong ink cube from behind her, pouting as she said, "I've been trying for days, but I haven't been able to piece it together even once."

If Princess Honglian hadn't seen Chen Hao recreate it once before, she would have thought that Chen Hao was deceiving her.

Chen Hao took the Shang Tong ink cube and said to Princess Honglian with a smile, "There are some tricks to playing with this stuff."

"If you can't figure out the pattern, even if you succeed once by chance, you'll still be clueless afterward."

As Chen Hao spoke, he explained to Princess Honglian and demonstrated how to play Shang Tong Mo Fang.

Soon, the Shangtong Ink Cube, which Princess Honglian could not straighten no matter what she tried, was restored to its original state in just a dozen breaths in Chen Hao's hands.

Chapter 079: Two Choices for Han Fei

"Honglian, Mr. Chenhao, what are you doing standing here?"

Just as Chen Hao and Hong Lian were sitting there, Han Fei suddenly walked over from a distance.

Upon getting closer, Han Fei saw the Shangtong Inkstone in Honglian's hand and looked at her with amusement, "Honglian, it's been so long, and you still haven't put this Shangtong Inkstone back in its original state?"

"how?"

Princess Honglian glared at Han Fei, her face flushed with anger and embarrassment. "Do you really think you can restore this Shangtong Ink Formula to its original state, Ninth Brother?"

"Of course."

Han Fei smiled smugly at Princess Honglian.

At this moment, Chen Hao also bowed to Han Fei and said, "Young Master Han Fei, do you wish to leave the palace?"

"Of course!"

Han Fei glanced at the painting toolbox in Chen Hao's hand and guessed why Chen Hao had come here, but he kept responding: "Although the palace is peaceful, it lacks a drink."

"So I'm heading to Zilan Pavilion now, and while I'm there, I'll ask Miss Zi for a sip of Hundred Flower Wine."

“Then let’s go together!” Chen Hao waved the art supply box in his hand and said to Han Fei, “I also need to leave the palace. If I, an outsider, leave late, there will be a lot of trouble.”

"Okay!"

Han Fei readily agreed, then said with a smile, "It seems that Mr. Chen Hao's paintings are quite popular among the ladies in the palace."

As Chen Hao and Han Fei walked outside, he said:

"Currently, only Lady Mingzhu in the palace has asked me to paint her portrait; no other nobles have invited me yet."

Han Fei nodded knowingly, not surprised at all.

After all, it was not an easy thing to get Chen Hao, a man, into the Han royal palace. Not only did she need to have enough power and status, but she also needed the Han king to give her enough trust.

Han Wang An's other favored concubines did not possess the same methods as Lady Mingzhu.

"Wait a minute~ wait a minute~, Chen Hao, Ninth Brother, are you two just going to leave me here?"

Seeing Han Fei and Chen Hao leave without even saying goodbye, Princess Honglian, who was standing there, suddenly became anxious.

Han Fei waved his hand behind him without turning his head, "Honglian, it's getting late, you should go back to your palace to rest."

"Even if I wanted to take you out for a walk to clear your head these past few days, I just didn't have the energy."

Chen Hao turned to Honglian and gave her a bright smile. "Princess Honglian, I'll make some preparations for tomorrow. I'll have Young Master Han Fei bring you some fun things to keep you entertained in the palace."

"As for now, you should hurry back and read a book or rest."

"asshole!"

Honglian's face turned bright red with anger, and she stomped her foot in annoyance.

However, she knew that even if Han Fei and Chen Hao brought her to the palace gate, the guards wouldn't let her leave, so she could only turn around and walk back to her own palace with a sense of resentment.

...

After returning to Qingpingzhai, Chen Hao put down his painting tools, greeted Yan Fei, Yan Lingji, and Wanwan, and then walked directly towards Zilanxuan with Han Fei.

These past few days, Chen Hao hasn't returned to his courtyard outside Xinzheng City to cultivate, not because he's been lazy, but because the innate Qi within his body is growing too fast, causing a constant feeling of swelling within him.

After asking Yan Lingji and the others, Chen Hao realized that the Qi in his body was growing too fast, and his physical strength and meridian resilience were not keeping up with the growth of Qi.

Even with the Star Chart of Candle Dragon constantly nurturing his body, this gap cannot be bridged in a short time.

So, although Chen Hao hasn't been cultivating seriously these days, the Qi within his body is circulating throughout his body, constantly tempering his body, internal organs, and meridians.

Chen Hao followed Han Fei and easily arrived at Zilan Pavilion, where he sat down with them for a rare opportunity to drink and chat.

"Little Chenhao, come and try the Hundred Flowers Wine that I personally brewed, and see if it suits your taste."

Zi Nu knelt beside Chen Hao and personally poured him a cup of wine using a jade long-necked wine pot.

Chen Hao picked up the wine cup, took a sip of the Hundred Flowers Wine, and exclaimed in admiration, "Pure and elegant, with a pleasant floral fragrance and a sweet and refreshing taste. No wonder Han Fei has always been thinking about the wines brewed by Sister Zi Nu."

"Haha!" Han Fei chuckled softly upon hearing Chen Hao's words, and downed a cup of Hundred Flower Wine in one gulp. "The Hundred Flower Wine here from Miss Zi Nu is one of the finest wines I have ever tasted in my life."

"If Mr. Chenhao can like it, then we can have more things in common."

After chatting for a while, the conversation quickly steered towards the current situation in South Korea and their desire to remove General Ji Wuye.

"To deal with Ji Wuye, we must first remove his teeth and claws."

Wei Zhuang coldly offered his advice to Han Fei.

Han Fei sighed and sat up straight. "The Four Fiends of Night!"

Wei Zhuang continued what Han Fei wanted to say next: "Ji Wuye tore apart the sharpest claws and teeth in the entire Han state."

"The Blood-Clad Marquis, the Jade Tiger on the Stone, the Sea Maiden of the Azure Sea, and the Straw-Clad Guest Under the Moon," Zi Nu said casually as she refilled Chen Hao's cup of wine.

Han Fei said solemnly, "It sounds quite poetic."

Zi Nu sighed softly: "If what they did could be considered a poem, it would surely be an incredibly bloody one."

The Four Fiends of the Night wield considerable power both in and out of the government, controlling the fates of many through their respective roles in the military, politics, finance, and espionage.

Blood-Clad Marquis commands 100,000 troops; Jade Tiger is the wealthiest man in the region;

The enchanting woman, Chao Nu Yao, controlled King An of Han within the inner palace, influencing the entire situation of the state of Han.

The man in the straw raincoat is the most mysterious. He is the head of Ji Wuye's intelligence network. Ji Wuye will be aware of any disturbances beforehand. He is the most mysterious and unpredictable, and he is extremely well hidden.

After learning all this, Han Fei couldn't help but sigh, "I have to say, luck played a part in solving the Ghost Soldiers' robbery case."
