As usual, Tianyu Trading Firm was bustling with activity. There were people everywhere. With his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan walked in slowly.
"Old master, Lord Ling's office is right in front..."
After walking for a while, Sun Qiang pointed to the front.
Zhang Xuan lifted his head and saw a lavishly decorated hall before him. At the entrance, there were two majestic Green Jade Stone Lions, exuding an authoritative aura.
Especially their eyes. They were dark and spirited, as though they were alive. With a single glance, one would feel their heart palpitating.
"I heard that Lord Ling specially invited a 6-mo craftsman to craft this pair of stone lions. The raw material is 【Southern Green Jade】, the best green jade in Tianxuan Kingdom! Together with the craftsmanship of the 6-mo craftsman, just one of them is worth several million gold coins. "
Sun Qiang's eyes burned with passion.
Many wealthy people would place valuable items in front of their doors to display their wealth and magnanimity. It also served as a way to attract wealth. It seemed like Ling Tianyu was no exception.
"Several million gold coins?" Zhang Xuan was astonished.
Previously, he thought that a million gold coins was a huge sum and that he had become a wealthy man. However, after hearing Ling Tianyu's words, he realized that he was no different from a beggar.
"Old master, do you need me to look for Lord Ling and inform him that you are here so that he can welcome you?" Sun Qiang looked over.
In his eyes, even though Lord Ling Tianyu's wealth was comparable to that of a country, in terms of standing, he was still lacking compared to a master teacher.
Even Emperor Shen Zhui didn't dare to offend a master teacher. On the other hand, no matter how wealthy Ling Tianyu was, he was just a merchant.
"There's no need for that!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands. "I am just looking around."
Walking forward slowly, Zhang Xuan reached the two towering stone lions and touched them.
It was smooth to the touch and gave one an extremely comfortable feeling. With a single look, one could tell that it was the best green jade.
Retracting his finger, Zhang Xuan looked around and touched the surroundings. After a long while, he placed his hands behind his back and slowly walked back.
Seeing his old master looking around as though he was a country bumpkin, Sun Qiang was perplexed.
"Let's sit over there!"
Ignoring the other party's bizarre gaze, Zhang Xuan smiled faintly.
Tianyu Shopping Mall had many places for people to rest. There was one not far from here. Zhang Xuan sat down and ordered a pot of tea.
Sun Qiang stood at the side, scratching his head in confusion.
This old master said he was here to look for Sir Ling, but when he arrived, he didn't go in and didn't even allow him to report to Sir Ling. Instead, he sat here drinking tea? What was he going to do?
"Are you wondering why I didn't enter the room to look for Lord Ling?" Seeing through his thoughts, Zhang Xuan smiled faintly.
"This subordinate does not dare to guess Master's thoughts!"
Although he thought so, Sun Qiang did not dare to say it out loud.
"There's no need to be nervous, just speak your mind!" Knowing that the other party was under pressure from a master teacher, Zhang Xuan didn't dare to say anything.
"I … just feel that something is amiss … Old master is a master teacher. If you wish to meet Lord Ling, he will definitely not reject you …" Sun Qiang couldn't help but ask.
"Of course he wouldn't reject me if I reveal my identity. However, do you believe that … even without revealing my identity, I can still make him come out to meet me?" Zhang Xuan looked at him.
What a joke! As a master teacher, if he were to reveal his identity to a merchant, wouldn't it be beneath him?
Only by making the other party rush over and confirm his identity would he be able to create a shocking effect.
"Without revealing your identity?" Sun Qiang was filled with disbelief, "That's impossible. Even though Lord Ling is a merchant, to be able to open such a huge shopping mall here, he must have a powerful background. Even the nobles and officials might not be able to meet him. If he doesn't reveal his identity, why would he come over?"
Since Ling Tianyu was able to open such a huge business in the capital, he must have the support of the royal family. Even though he was just a merchant, he couldn't be underestimated.
If he were to reveal his identity as a master teacher, he would definitely rush over. If he didn't reveal it … Why would he come out? If Lord Ling was so free, it would be impossible for him to expand his business to such a huge scale.
Even though Sun Qiang had opened a shop in the city before, he knew that given his reputation, it was impossible for him to attract the attention of this lord.
"Hehe!"
Chuckling lightly, Zhang Xuan lifted his teacup and said elegantly, "If you don't believe me, old master can have him come over obediently today. However, before that, you must do whatever I tell you to do!"
"Yes!" Seeing how confident the old master was, even though Sun Qiang was filled with doubts, he still nodded his head in agreement.
"Alright, go and knock off the head of the stone lion on the left." Zhang Xuan said.
"What?"
Sun Qiang staggered and nearly fainted.
He thought that the old master would come up with some incredible idea, but in the end … it was this?
Lord Ling viewed the stone lion, which was worth several million, as a precious treasure. If he were to knock off the head of the stone lion, his head would probably be removed from his body!
"Old master, I don't want to die yet …"
Sun Qiang was on the verge of tears.
"With me around, it won't be that easy for you to die. Don't worry!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually.
"…" Sun Qiang's lips twitched.
It wasn't easy for him to die, and he even had to pay for it. How could he kill him directly? But … even if he didn't kill him, he should at least cripple him, alright?
"Why? You dare to disobey the old master's words? "
Zhang Xuan frowned and a dignified aura exuded from him.
He was used to being a teacher. Coupled with his yellowish appearance, he did look rather imposing.
"I …"
"Don't worry, after smashing that stone lion, I will guide you in breaking through to Fighter 3-dan. With me around, there won't be any problems. That Ling Tianyu you spoke of, not only will he not make things difficult for you, he will even show his gratitude to you and gift you something good. " Knowing the prestige of this Lord Ling, it was indeed a little too much for Sun Qiang to do such a thing. Thus, Zhang Xuan waved his hands and promised some benefits.
"Er … Alright!"
Hearing the promise, Sun Qiang recalled that the other party was a master teacher. No matter how powerful Lord Ling was, he wouldn't dare to go overboard. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth.
He had been stuck at Fighter 3-dan for far too long. He had thought of all sorts of methods and thought that it would be impossible for him to take another step forward in this lifetime. Now that he had this opportunity, he was willing to do anything.
This was precisely the reason why he agreed to the other party's invitation to be his butler without much hesitation.
With the determination to risk his life, Sun Qiang turned around and walked to the stone lion on the left. The zhenqi in Sun Qiang's body surged and he forcefully raised his aura.
Even though this fellow's body was plump and unremarkable, his strength wasn't weak at all. Carrying a powerful might, his fist whistled through the air and landed on the stone lion!
Even though a zhenqi realm cultivator couldn't be considered as a formidable expert, at his pinnacle, he possessed a strength of 450kg. This Green Jade Lion might be tough, but it was as fragile as glass. As the fist landed, a crisp sound echoed.
Kacha!
The head of the stone lion, which was worth millions, fell to the ground and shattered into dust.
