Chapter 56 Negotiation
Seeing his actions, Ancestral Master understood that he had come prepared today. He was waiting for him instead of leaving.
Left defense, right defense, but in the end, he fell into the trap!@@@@
He felt somewhat annoyed, but since he did need Zhouzhou's help, he had no choice but to compromise.
However, after looking at the contract he had drafted, he suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, "Oh no, I don't have any money."
That's right, as someone who had long passed away and only left behind a divine consciousness, where would he have any money? Immediately, he sat down steadily, feeling somewhat guilty on his face but a sense of pride in his eyes.
"Oh, I'm really sorry. I can't even find my tomb anymore, otherwise, I could have taken a hundred or so burial objects as Zhouzhou's salary."
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou looked at him, then tilted her head to look at Qin Lie, obediently not saying a word, behaving as if everything depended on him.
Qin Lie stared at the cunning Ancestral Master and sneered. He didn't waste any words with him, simply took the document, carried Zhouzhou, and walked away confidently. With a snap, he closed the door decisively without any hesitation.
Seeing this, Ancestral Master was dumbfounded. He hurriedly floated over to catch up. "Look at you, young man, why are you so hot-tempered? Couldn't we have a proper conversation about it?"
Qin Lie glanced at him sideways. "Since you're not sincere, there's no need to waste any more time. Tomorrow, we'll send your statue back up the mountain. Zhouzhou's shortage of money has caused some loss to your Taoist temple, but she has already repaid it long ago. She doesn't owe you anything. Don't bully her here.
She is a child of the Qin family."
He spoke with a resolute tone, exuding an imposing aura without restraint, making Ancestral Master feel weak.
However, Zhouzhou wasn't afraid. She looked at him with sparkling eyes, thinking that her dad was so cool! She really liked him!
Noticing the look in the little girl's eyes, Qin Lie almost lost his composure. He raised his hand and pressed her face against his chest, looking at Ancestral Master with an expressionless face. "Please, go back where you came from."
After speaking, he carried Zhouzhou and walked towards the room.
Realizing that he wasn't joking, Ancestral Master hurriedly floated over. Due to his hastiness, his figure flickered for a moment before stabilizing after a while.
He put on a smiling face and said, "Who said I'm not sincere? If I weren't sincere, would I appear here? Come, come, let's sit down and talk properly."
Qin Lie witnessed this scene and held the bargaining chips more firmly.
He spoke, "Considering that you have raised Zhouzhou, I am not such a heartless person. I'll give you another chance. As you said, Zhouzhou is your disciple. If she is doing well, it's good for you too. You won't lose out."
Ancestral Master also had this in mind. Indeed, Zhouzhou was the most talented disciple he had ever seen and the most likely person to revive the Mystery Sect. Offending her would mean that he might never see such a peerless genius even if he waited for another hundred or two hundred years.
Ancestral Master stroked his beard and said, "Alright, let's do it your way."
Qin Lie smiled and led him to the study. After some negotiation, he managed to secure a thirty percent share for Zhouzhou.
"By the way, you mentioned before that once you have the Golden Aura, you'll completely resolve her lack of money, right?" Qin Lie reminded him.
"Yes, yes," Ancestral Master replied wearily. He couldn't even lift his eyelids. He couldn't understand why the Qin family had raised such a cunning person.
No wonder Qin Lie didn't fight hard for a larger share. He was waiting for this moment.
He would get more money, and he would regain his Golden Aura sooner. He would also have to spend a large amount of spiritual power to change Zhouzhou's destiny. In the end, he was the one paying for it.
This old fox from the Qin family didn't take any losses at all.
"Also," Ancestral Master's expression turned serious as he looked at Zhouzhou, "I wasn't just bluffing earlier. Even now, you still have a lack of money in your destiny. You can't hold too much money in your hands, or you'll encounter bad luck. So every time you receive money, you have to donate a portion of it to do good deeds and resolve the bad karma. Remember that."
Zhouzhou nodded. She understood this rule. Even if she didn't have a lack of money in her destiny, she would still do the same.
Because as diviners who meddled with the heavens' secrets, they would bear the consequences of their actions. They had to resolve them.
"I've already established a foundation in Zhouzhou's name," Qin Lie said. "When the time comes, a portion of the money will go directly to that foundation."
Ancestral Master choked. Well, this father and daughter were so intimate, there were no secrets between them. He was the only fool here, working so hard to fleece him.
"Alright, I'll leave now," Ancestral Master grumbled. He added his handprint to the contract and disappeared without saying another word.
Zhouzhou looked at the contract and giggled. She hugged Qin Lie's arm and said, "Dad, you're so clever and amazing!"
Enjoying the admiration from the little girl, Qin Lie put away the contract and modestly said, "It's alright, just average."
Just an ordinary genius.
Zhouzhou looked at him, her eyes filled with sparkling stars. Qin Lie gently touched her head and said, "Alright, go to sleep now."
"Okay!"
The next day, when Zhouzhou woke up, she opened her eyes and saw a compass on the bedside table. She quickly sat up, picked it up, and hugged it tightly. It was indeed the legendary Xuanyuan Compass. Just by touching it, she could feel the abundant spiritual energy emanating from it. Zhouzhou cherished it and didn't want to let go.
"Don't stare at it," Ancestral Master's dull voice came. "Get up quickly, your first task has arrived..."
