Senior Sister Yuan looked very touched.
But Senior Sister Zhang's eyes were slightly colder. She looked at Zheng Fa and didn't speak for a long time.
After a long silence, she finally said, "Junior Sister Yuan, Zheng Fa and I will talk alone."
Senior Sister Yuan nodded, looked at Zheng Fa with a worried and pleading look, and walked gently down the stairs.
When she went downstairs, she looked back at Zheng Fa, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end.
After her figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs, Senior Sister Zhang reached out and drew a golden insulation note in the void. Talisman shattered into golden light spots and quickly dissipated in the corner of the room.
Zheng Fa felt that the room suddenly became quiet. The noisy hawking sounds and footsteps of people coming and going in the Marketplace downstairs just now were blocked outside the door by this sound insulation note.
The only thing he can hear now is Senior Sister Zhang's long and deep breathing.
"Why refuse?" Senior Sister Zhang asked.
Both of them knew that Zheng Fa's words just now seemed to be speaking for Senior Sister Yuan, but in fact they were more rejecting Senior Sister Zhang.
From the beginning Senior Sister Zhang knew that this account book was compiled by Zheng Fa, and her purpose of coming here today may even be to hand Marketplace into the hands of Zheng Fa.
"Senior Sister Yuan works hard."
Zheng Fa first said a fair word for Senior Sister Yuan.
At first Han Qi said that Senior Sister Yuan was idle, and he believed it.
But after working with Senior Sister Yuan for a period of time, he discovered that although Senior Sister Yuan was not very active in settling accounts, he still cared about Marketplace.
"I know." Senior Sister Zhang nodded, but her face was still a little cold. She continued to explain, "General Affairs Hall has two sources of wealth, one of which is Marketplace. If she is not careful, there is no way I can give Marketplace to her."
"Two?"
"Do you think Spirit Stone can afford to support an entire Nine Mountains Sect with just this?" Senior Sister Zhang glanced at him and said, "The bulk of the Nine Mountains Sect's income comes from the General Affairs Hall buying up disciples' Talisman and then selling them to the Hundred Immortals Alliance other sects."
Got it, state-owned and private enterprises!
"Then... why do you want me to come?"
"I am short of people, and there is some chaos outside the sect." Senior Sister Zhang said frankly, "I have to rely on her to handle some things, Marketplace can only leave them to others..."
Zheng Fa nodded.
"Others... I'm not worried." Senior Sister Zhang looked at Zheng Fa and explained, "Everyone is short of spiritual materials now. There are so many Spirit Stone every day. If I put another person in this position, I'm afraid that my hands and feet will be unclean."
Zheng Fa was silent, he finally understood why Senior Sister Zhang was so impatient and wanted to put himself Qi Refinement Second Layer in Marketplace's position of stewardship.
It's simply pulling back the seeds and encouraging the growth.
And it will definitely cause a big disturbance.
But Senior Sister Zhang commented on the Nine Mountains Sect and other people, and he also believed it - who doesn't know how precious Spirit Stone is now?
"Nine Mountains Sect In my lineage... I dare say that there are only a few people who can't reach out now." Senior Sister Zhang raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Fa: "Junior Sister Yuan counts as one, and you count as one."
Zheng Fa was stunned.
"Sister, do you trust me so much?"
"Because you are talented enough, you won't harm your future because of this little thing."
Zheng Fa thanked me humbly, "Sister, I'm overly complimentary."
"And you're timid, that's the most important thing."
Senior Sister Zhang added.
... Thank you.
Zheng Fa thought for a while and declined, "I know what senior sister means, but junior brother's cultivation... it's really hard to convince the public."
"You are Profound-grade Talisman Master. Except for the lack of spiritual power, you are basically the same as Foundation Establishment Realm." Senior Sister Zhang shook his head and said, "Although Foundation Establishment Realm is a little lower, it is barely enough."
"..."
Seeing that Zheng Fa still didn't say anything, Senior Sister Zhang suddenly said, "Whoever refuses to obey, beat him until he obeys."
"?"
"I am in charge of the General Affairs Hall as Golden Core, can no one question it?"
Senior Sister Zhang glanced at Zheng Fa.
Also, the first seat of the Discipline Hall is Pang True Person, and that is Nascent Soul.
A place like General Affairs Hall, which controls Nine Mountains Sect's financial resources, is actually managed by Senior Sister Zhang and Golden Core.
I'm afraid Marketplace can cause more dissatisfaction than Zheng Fa taking charge.
"Nine Mountains Sect's atmosphere has not been very good since I started. There were even casualties in the Talisman Debate Pavilion's fights."
Zheng Fa said in surprise, "... It's actually pretty good now?"
"When I defeat Nine Mountains Sect's contemporaries, they will accept my rule of not hurting others."
Senior Sister Zhang continued, "My Foundation Establishment speed is Hundred Immortals Alliance's fastest in history. Nine Mountains Sect Some people say that I am Hundred Immortals Alliance Talisman Dao is the first genius, Hundred Immortals Alliance. Of course there are people who don't Qi Ingestion. Once I conquered Hundred Immortals Alliance and most of Foundation Establishment, they will recognize this name."
"After Golden Core, Self-Attachment controlled General Affairs Hall, and those Golden Core True Disciple were not Qi Ingestion. I defeated all Golden Core of the same generation."
Zheng Fa grinned.
What kind of path is this to a genius who is the enemy of the whole world?
He couldn't help but praise, "Senior sister is a genius. My blood boils with excitement when I hear it. I wish I could take her place..."
"You can do it too."
"Ahem, junior brother, I don't have this talent."
Zheng Fa quickly denied that Senior Sister Zhang's path is Senior Sister Zhang's path, not the path Zheng Fa wants to take - he feels that he is already very busy now, < Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method>,<Five-Thunder Dharma Body>,<Scarlet Firmament Formula>, the modern exploration of Talisman Dao, and College Entrance Exam...
How can I have time to fight with others?
The whole world is against this road. It sounds tiring, right?
"I'll help you."
"?"
Zheng Fa looked at Senior Sister Zhang, and a question mark slowly appeared on his head.
"Or, you help me." Senior Sister Zhang looked at him and said softly.
Looking into Senior Sister Zhang's eyes, Zheng Fa gritted his teeth and nodded. "Junior brother is willing, but I have a request."
"Say."
"If there is no rush, it would be better to let Senior Sister Yuan and I take charge of Marketplace for a while."
"You actually have her own interests in mind."
"Junior brother wants Senior Sister Yuan to help me support the situation." Zheng Fa said with a smile.
"That's fine, there's really no rush." Senior Sister Zhang nodded and said, "She wants to be the supervisor of this Marketplace. In fact, she was too lonely before, but now she likes to be lively and wander around in Marketplace."
"Lonely?"
"She was raised by Azure Luan, Sect Leader."
"..."
Zheng Fa's pupils dilated, remembering the big bird that covered the sky before.
"Then Senior Sister Yuan is..."
"Golden Core, she was raised by Sect Leader on top of the Nine Mountains to Golden Core. After transforming into Lightning Tribulation, she came down the mountain and was taught by me."
Zheng Fa nodded.
When he looked at Senior Sister Yuan's small round face on the first floor, he couldn't help but think of the round bird head from before.
Don't tell me, just looking at the face shape, they are quite similar.
Senior Sister Yuan looked at the two of them a little uneasily.
"Junior Sister Yuan, Zheng Fa Association will preside over the affairs of Marketplace in the future."
Senior Sister Yuan's expression dimmed.
But he nodded without saying anything, and seemed to listen to what Senior Sister Zhang said.
"But Junior Brother Zheng said that he hopes you can work for a while longer." Senior Sister Zhang changed the topic, and Senior Sister Yuan couldn't help but show a bit of joy on his face. "In half a year, after half a year, this Marketplace will have to be completely handed over to Junior Brother Zheng."
If I had said this before, Senior Sister Yuan probably wouldn't feel happy.
But now this sentence seemed like an unexpected surprise, making her smile so hard that she couldn't even see her eyebrows.
"You have taught Junior Brother Zheng well these six months."
Senior Sister Zhang warned.
Senior Sister Yuan grabbed Zheng Fa's arm and said, "I will definitely teach you well!"
At the Han Qi booth, the Profound-grade symbols drawn by Zheng Fa were sold out quickly.
The two people around him were smiling.
"Brother, our Talisman is selling faster and faster!"
"One Profound-grade talisman combined with three Yellow-grade talismans is indeed more cost-effective than before and easy to sell! Senior brother has the brains!"
The tall and lanky guy even complimented Han Qi.
"I think other vendors selling Talisman will soon follow suit."
Han Qi shook his head, but his face was not as happy as the other two, and his brows were furrowed, as if he was worried.
"That's right, those people are not stupid either." The tall and thin man nodded. He looked at Han Qi's worried face and comforted him, "Brother, don't worry too much. Don't we still have the reputation of Junior Brother Zheng? We will always do better business than others."
"That's not what I'm worried about."
Han Qi sighed.
"Senior brother, you have a sad face."
"Senior Sister Yuan this morning, do you two remember it?"
"Of course you remember!"
"We are afraid that we have offended Senior Sister Yuan." Han Qi said worriedly.
"Ah?" The tall and thin man was stunned, and his face turned pale. "Why are you offended?"
"You don't know what we are like when we are around Senior Sister Yuan?" Han Qi said, "You are so attentive under Junior Brother Zheng and have changed so much. Senior Sister Yuan sees it in your eyes, how can you not have any ideas?"
"That's right, they say it's difficult to raise a girl with a villain... then will she wear tiny shoes for us?"
Han Qi was silent for a while. "Senior Sister Yuan is in charge of Marketplace, and she has a high level of cultivation. Even if she doesn't give us little shoes, it's not a good thing to offend her."
"Isn't there also Junior Brother Zheng?"
The tall and thin man said uneasily.
"Junior Brother Zheng..." Han Qi's face became even more tangled. "I'm afraid that the three of us will also implicate Junior Brother Zheng and make Senior Sister Yuan angry with him."
"..."
"After all, he is still Qi Refinement Realm. Besides, Senior Sister Yuan is also Senior Sister Zhang's confidant."
Hearing what he said, the smiles on the faces of the other two people were gradually replaced by worry.
"Then senior brother, what should we do."
"If it doesn't work out, we'll go to Junior Brother Zheng's house later to accuse him so that he can be prepared. We'll go to Senior Sister Zhang to intercede first." Han Qi gritted his teeth and said, "If Junior Brother Zheng is punished, we will admit it!"
"Senior brother... it seems we don't have to go to Junior Brother Zheng's house."
"?"
"Isn't that Junior Brother Zheng over there?" The tall and thin man pointed in that direction and said, "When you said Senior Sister Yuan made him angry, what do you mean?"
Han Qi looked up.
Zheng Fa is walking around inside Marketplace.
There was a familiar yet unfamiliar figure beside him, pointing at the surrounding shops, with a warm smile on his face and talking nonstop.
The three of them couldn't hear what Senior Sister Yuan said, but it didn't look like he was cursing.
"That's...Senior Sister Yuan?"
Han Qi said blankly.
"The faces look similar, but the complexions don't." The tall and thin man next to him also hesitated.
"..."
"Senior brother, should we go to Junior Brother Zheng's house to ask for forgiveness?"
"What a shame!" Han Qi patted the stupid follower next to him.
"How does she look in front of us, and how does she look in front of Junior Brother Zheng?"
"She has the nerve to blame us?"
