Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

The main hall and living room of the Ye family's old residence.

As soon as Shen Yi finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

All eyes were fixed on him, and no one spoke; the air grew quiet.

Ye Changrong didn't interrupt without permission, but turned to look at Ye Changguo, who was in the main seat, waiting for his elder brother to make a decision.

Ye Changguo, who was in charge of the entire Ye family, slightly raised his eyelids, not even looking at Shen Yi who took out his money, and his gaze passed over everyone and landed on Chen Mo's face.

Everyone in the room was waiting for Uncle Ye's opinion.

Uncle Ye was observing Chen Mo's attitude.

Chen Mo leaned back lazily in his chair, a slight smile playing on his lips.

It's such a simple action.

Uncle Ye made a decision in an instant.

He gently put down his teacup and nodded slowly to Ye Changrong.

"Since Xiao Yi is so willing, we as elders should support him and let's calculate it at cost price."

A single sentence, and the decision was final.

Ye Changrong immediately understood, turned to Shen Yi, and reported the original cost price of the three Shichahai courtyard houses.

There was no premium, no inflated figures; it was simply the base price the Ye family paid when they acquired the property.

Shen Yi glanced at the amount: over two billion.

Without hesitation, he took out his phone, opened the transfer interface, and quickly operated his fingers.

After transferring the money, Shen Yi put away his phone, a hearty smile on his face, and moved closer to Chen Mo.

"Brother Mo, don't forget to call me if anything good happens in the future!"

Chen Mo glanced at him, his tone indifferent and casual.

"Okay, I'll help you earn some more later."

With just that one sentence, Shen Yi's eyes lit up instantly.

"Thank you, Brother Mo. Thank you, Brother Mo."

Uncle Ye, holding his teacup, took in the entire interaction between the two, his eyes flickering slightly.

This young man, despite his young age, possesses a shrewdness and maturity far beyond that of ordinary people.

He was neither greedy for personal connections nor took advantage of others, and kept public and private matters clearly separated. This gave Shen Yi the opportunity to make friends, while also giving the Ye family enough face.

This clarity is so rare.

Ye Changjin stood to the side, watching his son take the initiative to pay and be accepted by Chen Mo, his eyes filled with relief.

"That's settled then."

Uncle Ye broke the silence with his words.

"Yun Shu, you take care of the rest."

"Understood, Uncle."

Ye Yunshu immediately stood up and, without the slightest hesitation, took out her phone and dialed a series of numbers.

Because of prior preparation, the transfer process for the courtyard house was very quick, with a streamlined process throughout.

From the time the payment was finalized in the morning until sunset in the afternoon, three brand-new property ownership certificates were neatly delivered to Chen Mo's hands.

The bright red property ownership certificate officially and completely transferred the ownership of three courtyard houses in prime locations in Beijing to Chen Mo's name.

……

The afternoon sun was shining brightly, bathing the Shichahai Hutong in its light.

The old house with its blue bricks and gray tiles is simple and elegant. The old locust tree in the courtyard sprouts tender green buds. When a breeze blows, the branches and leaves sway gently, and the whole courtyard is filled with refreshing greenery.

Chen Mo led Wang Yuxuan and Lin Jing into one of the courtyard houses.

The two girls, filled with curiosity and wonder, looked around the priceless old mansion in Beijing, exchanged a glance, and then went together to the east and west wing rooms to tidy up the rooms.

Chen Mo was the only one left in the courtyard.

He surveyed the entire three-courtyard complex, his eyes calm and undisturbed, yet a sense of melancholy lingered in his heart.

In my previous life, I had only seen Beijing courtyard houses on TV. I knew that these were things that money couldn't buy, and each one was incredibly expensive.

Now, they've acquired three properties at once, all of which are prime locations in the heart of the city, given to them by others.

He walked around the yard, looking at every corner.

The main hall, the east and west wing rooms, the backyard, and the corridors—everywhere overlapped with the television scenes in his memory, but felt even more real than on TV.

Moss grew in the cracks between the blue bricks, the paint on the pillars was slightly cracked, and there was a smell of old wood and soil mixed together in the courtyard.

When I have time in the future, I'll bring my parents and sister to live with me for a while.

Just then, the sound of a truck stopping came from outside the gate.

Two enclosed trucks were parked steadily at the entrance of the alley; they were the Ye family's special vehicles for transporting medicinal herbs.

"Mr. Chen, all the medicinal herbs have been delivered!"

The driver and worker got out of the vehicle and greeted each other respectfully.

Hundreds of alchemical herbs filled a whole cart, all top-grade raw materials collected by the Ye family according to the highest standards, with no flaws in quality.

Chen Mo nodded slightly.

"Move it in and put it in the west warehouse."

Several workers moved quickly and methodically, and within about half an hour, they had moved all the wooden boxes of medicinal herbs into the warehouse, arranged them neatly, and then left.

The courtyard fell completely silent.

Wang Yuxuan and Lin Jing were still tidying up the room and hadn't come out.

Taking advantage of a moment when no one was around, Chen Mo stored all three hundred boxes of medicinal herbs in the warehouse into his bronze ring.

Having finished everything, he looked up at the sky. It was almost dark. He would refine the pills after the two women fell asleep that night.

The purpose of this trip to the capital has been achieved. Once the medicinal herbs are refined into elixirs, it will be time to return.

Night fell, and darkness enveloped the capital city.

The main hall of the Ye family's old mansion was brightly lit, and all the Ye family members gathered there once again.

Uncle Ye sat in the main seat, holding a white porcelain teacup in his hand.

He didn't speak immediately, but his gaze swept over everyone present, and Shen Yi unconsciously straightened his back.

There was no sound of talking in the main hall, not even the clinking of teacups.

Uncle Ye put down his teacup.

"I've gathered everyone here tonight to discuss just one thing."

He spoke slowly, his voice not loud, but carrying an absolute sense of control.

"About Chen Mo."

"I went through everything that had happened to him since he came to Beijing, and everyone listened carefully and remembered it clearly."

"First, his medical skills are divine. All the old man's chronic and intractable diseases that had plagued him for decades, which even the most famous doctors couldn't cure, he could see through with just one pulse and cure completely. You can't find anyone else in the whole country with such medical skills."

"Secondly, the sheer scale of their wealth is terrifying. In a single night, they manipulated the futures market, earning over 60 billion US dollars purely through their own methods. With over 90 billion US dollars in offshore assets in hand, their speed of making money has exceeded all of our comprehension."

"Third, his strength is unpredictable. His skills, aura, and foundation are comparable to the one next to Number One, belonging to the true top-level internal strength experts."

At this point, Uncle Ye paused for a moment and emphasized his words.

"And there's one more crucial point."

"He's buying up top-grade medicinal herbs in large quantities, with an enormous demand far exceeding the scope of ordinary health and wellness practices. Considering his level of power, there's only one possibility!"

"He can also refine pills!"

"I once talked to the person next to Number One. For people at their level, besides their own hard work, the fastest way to improve their cultivation is through pills. And there are very few people who can actually refine pills."

"Medical skills, financial resources, extraordinary strength, and alchemy secrets. All four extraordinary abilities are concentrated in a twenty-six-year-old young man."

"On the entire planet Earth, no one else could do it except him!"

Uncle Ye paused for a moment, picked up his teacup and took a sip, his gaze calmly sweeping over everyone in the room.

No one in the main hall dared to make a sound; even their breathing was very soft.

He put down his teacup and slowly began to speak.

"Therefore, the Ye family must go to any lengths to deeply bind themselves to him, even to curry favor with him!"

P.S.: I revised it five or six times but it still wouldn't pass the review. Speechless.
