The two of them were still hurling insults at each other when they arrived at the police station.
The police helped to register their nas.
"Su Zheng."
"Su Xianci."
They stated their nas.
The officer noted down their nas, and when he looked up again, he found the old man and the young man were holding each other and sobbing bitterly.
This left the officer completely bewildered.
Monts ago, they were at each other’s throats, and now they were crying like they were family.
A reunion of grandfather and grandson.
Su Zheng also felt the sensation of eting a familiar face in a foreign land.
And Su Xianci finally found his grandfather, ending the days of constant hunger.
To celebrate, they went for a bowl of California beef noodles.
This was when Su Xianci realized that his seemingly all-powerful granduncle was living such a destitute life.
Su Zheng told Su Xianci that to leave this world, if either of them could reach a certain point, they could leave.
If he achieves financial freedom, he should be able to leave.
And when Su Xianci arrived, he was a student, so "Su Xianci should get into the best university to leave.
Therefore, Su Zheng advised Su Xianci to study hard.
Then, by getting into the best university, he could leave here.
Su Xianci agreed with Su Zheng’s reasoning, and he was confident as well, since back at the Su family, he learned everything the fastest.
But after all, it’s just school; what could be difficult about learning things?
So the grandfather and grandson went their separate ways. Su Xianci asked a few students outside about the best university and then headed ho.
After running away from ho for many days, Su Xianci finally returned ho. First, he got a good beating, and then he loudly declared to Su Wei that he wanted to go to the best university.
Su Wei and his wife felt surprised by their son’s sudden change, thinking perhaps after experiencing the hardships of the world outside, he wanted to study hard.
Su Wei asked Su Xianci with excitent which university he wanted to attend.
Without hesitation, Su Xianci said he wanted to go to MIT.
Su Wei nodded, feeling emotional about his son’s ambition. Even though his total scores in all subjects barely reached over one hundred, he dared to say he wanted to go to MIT.
Then, using Su Xianci’s bragging as an excuse, he gave him another beating.
Seeing the grandchild and grandparent living comfortably, Li Changqing was relieved.
Early the next morning, Guang Ancestor arrived at the National Guardian Mansion to take Lu Shiran away.
Lu Shiran reluctantly looked back at Li Hengsheng as she left with Guang Ancestor.
Before leaving, Lu Shiran said to Li Hengsheng, "Next ti we et, I’ll surely be of help to you and won’t be a burden anymore."
"Okay."
Li Hengsheng nodded.
Lu Shiran felt that during both encounters with Li Hengsheng, she had been a burden and hadn’t been of any help at all.
She worried that if she didn’t put effort into her cultivation, Li Hengsheng would end up looking down on her, so she resolved to diligently cultivate upon returning to Guanglan Palace.
After Lu Shiran departed, Li Hengsheng suddenly felt as if sothing was missing in the Inspection Mansion.
However, Li Hengsheng put aside his thoughts and delved into the affairs of the Inspection Mansion.
The father and son returned to their usual lives.
Li Changqing went to teach Yin Qing every day, then returned in the afternoon to carve wood.
He told stories to Zhen Wanshou daily, and Zhen Wanshou used his abilities to gather so intelligence for Li Changqing.
As days passed by, the Evergreen Comrce Association’s premium tea was launched.
Two ounces of tea for five thousand taels of silver.
The price caused an uproar in the entire Eastern Wilderness.
They could hardly believe it.
What kind of tea could possibly grant immortality to be sold at such a high price?
Moreover, the Evergreen Comrce Association didn’t provide any special explanation for Da Hong Pao, leaving all custors guessing.
This only made many people even more curious about Da Hong Pao.
Finally, when a rchant couldn’t resist the urge to pay a huge sum to try it, they found out that the Evergreen Comrce Association wasn’t selling it!
They required a cultivation level of Innate Perfection to buy it?
This rule shocked many, and around the sa ti, the Evergreen Comrce Association revealed the story of Da Hong Pao.
Sothing about a celestial tree, limited production every three years, and a need for limited sales.
The audience was puzzled.
But they understood one thing: this tea was difficult to acquire, had a high purchase threshold, and being from so celestial tree, it might have benefits for one’s cultivation.
Eventually, a strong individual at the level of Innate Perfection spent a huge sum to buy two ounces of tea.
Once soone took the lead, naturally, others followed suit.
More importantly, once this item started selling, its nature seed to have changed.
It seed to beco a symbol of status.
"Have you ever tried Da Hong Pao?"
"No, I haven’t."
"Oh, then we’re not on the sa level."
"???
Moreover, Li Changqing’s story attracted attention as well.
"Does drinking Da Hong Pao really aid cultivation?"
"It actually might. Not only does it taste pretty good, but more importantly, after drinking it, I do feel like my cultivation speed increased a bit."
This word of mouth spread, surprisingly, and so who initially dismissed it started to notice a slight increase in their cultivation speed after drinking it.
Changting Town.
The Yan family.
"Clan Leader, Da Hong Pao is selling like crazy, and many stores are already experiencing shortages. Should we restock?"
