Full-Time Magister: You're selling soul beasts in Shanghai?

Chapter 46 Heading to the Capital: The Mu Family on the Verge of Bankruptcy

"The capital city?"

Xu Beichen stroked Mu Nuxin's head, a puzzled expression on his face.

Now Mu Nuxin has become his personal secretary; she does everything when there's work to be done, and nothing else.

Mu Nuxin truly deserves her reputation as a business genius; many of Xu Beichen's business deals were secured by her.

It can be said that nearly half of the credit for Xu Beichen's ability to earn so many points goes to Mu Nuxin.

Therefore, Mu Nuxin not only didn't have to pay at the restaurant, but she could even go up to the second floor to cultivate. Xu Beichen would occasionally treat Mu Nuxin to milk tea.

"Goo-hoo, it's from the capital. The Zhou family wants to buy a high-bloodline demon beast, preferably one with the ice attribute."

Mu Nuxin seemed to be having some difficulty breathing, but she still managed to speak.

"The Zhou family of the capital."

Xu Beichen thought about it and realized that he did have some impression of the Zhou family.

In the original story, the random passerby who wanted to marry Mu Ningxue was from the Zhou family in the capital.

Judging by this timeline, Mu Zhuoyun should have already discussed things with the Zhou family in the capital.

Tsk tsk, it's laughable when you think about it.

The wealthy landowners of Bocheng became nothing after arriving in the capital, and were even reduced to giving away their daughters.

At this time, the Mu family was truly in dire straits. Although they were not as miserable as they were after the calamity of the ancient capital, they were living a life of dependence on others.

"Tomorrow, Nu Xin, you're coming to the capital with me."

After some deliberation, Xu Beichen decided to go to the capital.

Last time I went to Bocheng, I only saw Mu Zhuoyun, but I didn't see the Ice Beauty Mu Ningxue. Maybe I'll get to see her this time.

"Hmm? Oh, okay."

Mu Nuxin was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed, as it was a rare opportunity to spend time alone together.

Xu Beichen smiled. With Ah Yin in charge of the restaurant, he didn't need to worry about anything.

After several months of learning, Ah Yin has become an excellent cook.

imperial capital.

"Sigh~"

Mu Zhuoyun, who had just finished talking with the Zhou family in the capital, lay on the sofa and let out a long sigh.

In the capital city, a place teeming with powerful clans and families, the Mu family, a small clan, simply could not gain a foothold.

The Mu family only valued Mu Ningxue and didn't pay any attention to the others.

To break this status quo, the Mu family can only truly rise after Mu Ningxue becomes a powerful figure.

Without resources, even with Mu Ningxue's exceptional talent, she will still fall behind others.

"The Zhou family."

Mu Zhuoyun's face showed a conflicted expression. The Zhou family had only one request: that Mu Ningxue marry Zhou Youhong, the young master of the Zhou family.

Mu Zhuoyun was well aware that the Zhou family's actions were tantamount to kicking someone when they were down, but there was nothing he could do. The Mu family now had Mu Ningxue to offer.

As long as they agree to the Zhou family's request, all the problems the Mu family is facing will be easily solved.

But in that case, the Mu family would have to rely on the Zhou family. At most, the Zhou family's attitude would be better than the Mu family's because of their in-law relationship.

"Back in Bocheng, if we had persuaded Xu Beichen to stay for a few days and let Ning Xue meet him, wouldn't that have been a hundred times better than dealing with the Zhou family?"

Mu Zhuoyun couldn't help but sigh.

In recent months, Xu Beichen has been enjoying immense popularity in China, with even high-level mages trying to curry favor with him but failing to do so.

Rumor has it that Xu Beichen has a master with forbidden spells, which makes Mu Zhuoyun feel like a golden opportunity has slipped through his fingers.

Xu Beichen

On the second-floor staircase, a stunningly beautiful woman with silver hair, seemingly untouched by worldly affairs, leaned against the handrail, her voice clear and ethereal.

The capital's academic institutions.

"Xu Beichen? Are you sure you're not seeing things?"

Dean Songhe's expression immediately became much more serious, and he looked at Lu Yiming in front of him with a hint of urgency.

"It really is Xu Beichen. I ran into him by chance when I went to the airport to pick up the teachers and students of Mingzhu Academy," Lu Yiming said immediately.

"That's not right. Even if Xu Beichen is indeed young, he is a student at the main campus of Mingzhu Academy. He shouldn't be qualified."

An old professor from a prestigious university in the capital said.

Lu Yiming shook his head and explained, "They weren't traveling together. I happened to see them while I was waiting at the airport exit."

"Then what is he doing in the capital?" the old professor asked in surprise.

"Whatever the reason, this is an opportunity. The students at Mingzhu Academy have been too aggressive lately, all because of Xu Beichen."

Lu Yiming said in a serious tone.

"Is Xu Beichen's cooking really that amazing?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The old professor spoke with a hint of skepticism.

"A while ago, a court monk went to Shanghai with a skeptical attitude to try it. In the following month, he went to Shanghai almost every other day."

Dean Songhe waved his hand and said with a serious expression.

"Is it that exaggerated? Even a high-level mage is so obsessed, what kind of drug did they use?" the old professor exclaimed in shock.

"I heard that his cultivation has improved a lot. After entering the super-level, even a little bit of improvement in cultivation is very rare."

Dean Songhe said with a sigh.

Why would someone with such talent open a shop in Shanghai? Isn't this just letting Mingzhu University benefit for nothing?

Because of this restaurant alone, their Imperial Capital Academy will lose many talented students in the future.

If this continues, their Imperial Capital Academy will inevitably be overtaken by Pearl Academy.

"What kind of evil magic is it?" the old professor speculated with a hint of malice.

Dean Songhe shook his head and said very seriously, "After the court mage returned, he had several healing mages test him. There were absolutely no side effects, and his physical strength was even greatly enhanced."

"I can understand strengthening one's physique with demon flesh, but how could it help with cultivation?" Lu Yiming asked.

"It's not hard to understand. Powerful demons originally possess a lot of energy, just like those rare and precious materials, but no chef has ever been able to achieve this level."

Dean Songhe became increasingly distressed as he spoke, lamenting why such a talented individual wasn't from their Imperial Capital Academy!

In fact, if Dean Songhe were in Dean Xiao's position, he might not have the same boldness as Dean Xiao.

Xu Beichen was admitted directly to the main campus as a student with special talents, which is unprecedented in the history of Mingzhu Academy.

Given Songhe's lack of courage, all I can say is "heh heh."

"Shouldn't we do something? We can't just sit and wait for Pearl Academy to surpass us."

The old professor spoke with a hint of urgency. He had spent many years at the Imperial University and had developed a deep affection for it. He was also proud to be a professor at the Imperial University.

If the Imperial Capital Academy is surpassed by the Pearl Academy, then this vanity will be shattered instantly.

"Sigh~"

Dean Songhe sighed. If there had been any other way, he would have taken action long ago.

"I have an idea."

Lu Yiming adjusted his glasses and said with a smile.

Tell me about it.

"When I saw Xu Beichen at the airport, I noticed he had a very beautiful female companion with him. Perhaps we can start with that."
