Chapter 207 The good times don’t last long
On this day, Master Li Huayuan gained both fame and fortune!
Fortunately, he was a Jindan cultivator and was not completely overwhelmed. When Sun Zecheng asked him to hand over half of the reward to Fenglin Pavilion, he handed it over obediently.

Starting from this day,
In the teahouse, a betting table was opened for the monks to place bets on how many times the monk could withstand the blows before giving in.
No need to ask, it must be Master Li Huayuan who went to the teahouse to blend it secretly!

After all, Elder Li is in charge of everyone's physical condition and the severity of the attack. It would be impossible to open the market without Elder Li's collusion.

Sun Zecheng has no choice but to ignore this matter!
Gambling is human nature and one of the differences between humans and beasts. Sun Zecheng has no intention of suppressing it.

Besides, if you don’t do it, someone else will! Sun Zecheng doesn’t intend to let it go.

However, as a time traveler who lived in the south before traveling through time, Sun Zecheng had seen an underground lottery called Mark Six when he was very young.
What the public hates most is that the banker absconds with the money and manipulates the results. Sun Zecheng will never allow this to happen!
He called his master Li Huayuan and warned him: "When the teahouse runs these events, you can reveal basic information, but you cannot participate in manipulating the results."

Li Huayuan now has both fame and fortune, and his money is rolling in. He has become very slippery. He promised everything and patted his chest that he would not make things difficult for the leader.

"There is nothing difficult for this headmaster to do. I will issue the notice now."
-
【notice】

1. The prisoners of war are assets purchased by Fenglin Pavilion. No matter whether it is a teahouse, inn or other store in the market, as long as they open a business for the Mulan prisoners of war, half of the profits will be handed over to Fenglin Pavilion.

2. In order to prevent the market opener from absconding with the funds, the monks' betting funds must be handed over to Fenglin Pavilion for safekeeping. The custody of the funds will be specifically the responsibility of Steward Liu Jing and Steward Wu.

3. In order to prevent manipulation of results, as long as there is an abnormality in the betting on a certain handicap in the teahouse, Fenglin Pavilion can replace the executioner or cancel it at any time. If a Mulan slave has an abnormal physical condition, the match can also be cancelled randomly.

After seeing the last message, Li Huayuan's expression suddenly became unnatural.

"Master, I still say the same thing. Just let me know the information. Forget it. The other spirit stones should be returned to avoid it being difficult to compensate. Don't you agree?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Li Huayuan took out a handkerchief, wiped the sweat off his face, and left in a hurry.

Soon, Li Huayuan appeared in a spiritual teahouse and went straight into the inner room where the teahouse owner was.

Entering the inner room, Li Huayuan took out his storage bag without saying a word and poured out a pile of spirit stones.

"Elder Li, what does this mean?" asked the teahouse owner.

Li Huayuan didn't say anything, but just threw a latest notice to the teahouse owner.

After reading it, the teahouse owner smiled disapprovingly: "This is just for outsiders to see. I don't believe that a foundation-building stage leader can control your golden elixir elder?"

Li Huayuan shook his head and said, "You outsiders don't understand. My headmaster Sun of Huangfeng Valley is different from the heads of the other five sects of Yue Kingdom."

"Elder Li is the Jindan elder and the master of Master Sun. What can Master Sun, who is just at the foundation-building stage, do to you?" the teahouse owner said again.

"It is true that Sect Leader Sun is at the Foundation Establishment stage, but his skills are special. He is invincible at the same level and can even fight across levels. None of the Golden Core Elders of the Yellow Maple Valley dare to regard the Sect Leader as a Foundation Establishment stage."

"In Yellow Maple Valley, Linghu Taishang is not in charge of anything. As the master's disciple, I have the final say!"

“He is invincible in the same level and can fight across levels. This means that once Master Sun forms the elixir, Huangfeng Valley will prosper!” the teahouse owner complimented.

"Yes! It's a pity that he is practicing the Prison Cauldron Divine Art. He has no hope of forming a pill in this lifetime." Li Huayuan said with regret.

"In short, this thing can't be done. I'll return the spiritual stones to you." Li Huayuan said and turned to leave.

The remaining teahouse owner stared at the spirit stone on the table in silence.

However, this little episode did not affect the opening of the markets of various teahouses and inns as scheduled.
Sun Zecheng temporarily and randomly replaced the executioners for several games with larger bet amounts with Elder Huang and Elder Du.
This uncertainty makes it extremely difficult to manipulate the results.

Moreover, Master Sun monitors market anomalies and cancels bets at any time, which basically eliminates the idea of ​​manipulating results.

However, the monks placed bets enthusiastically because the game was relatively fair!

With new fun, Yuanjialing has become more lively!
A month later, Tiantian City sent back another ten prisoners of war.

Managers Liu Jing and Wu reported that the market profit had exceeded the normal profit of the Yuanjialing branch.

now it's right!

Sun Zecheng felt it was strange when he read the original novel. The mortal world lacks order, and people kill and rob for resources and interests. There is no gambling unless there is a super power banning it!

It's really confusing!

……

Good times are not long,

Another half month later, Li Huayuan came to see Master Sun and reported,
The audience said that his "performance" was not exciting enough.
For the Shadow Sect's performances in Tiantian City, cutting off ears and noses were a piece of cake. They also did everything from chopping off hands and feet to gouging out eyes, opening stomachs, pulling out tendons, skinning and beheading!

Now the audience has been lost a lot.

Ask Master Sun if he is following too?

"No!" Sun Zecheng refused.

"If they don't follow us, the audience will run away sooner or later," said Li Huayuan.

"There's nothing I can do if I run away. I can't follow you."

Seeing that Master Li Huayuan was puzzled, Sun Zecheng explained:
"I heard that a sect called Tai Hongdeng bought some female prisoners of war at a high price in order to attract audiences, and publicly performed sexual intercourse between men and women."

"How about I buy some female prisoners of war and have you strip them naked and have sex with them in public? It will definitely be a big hit! It's guaranteed to be packed!"

"That won't work!" Li Huayuan flatly refused.

"That's right, there's no way to follow." Sun Zecheng spread his hands.

"What if the audience just leaves?" Li Huayuan was very concerned about this.
In addition to income, as a popular "hero" that attracts much attention, the unhappiness caused by the decrease in audience attention is even greater than the decrease in income!

Li Huayuan has fallen deeply in love with the feeling of being the center of attention and surrounded by dense crowds of onlookers!

Now that half the people are gone, Li Huayuan feels like he has lost all motivation!

"After a while of being hot, everything will eventually calm down. Master, just get used to it slowly!"

Just then, Brother Murong from the transport team came to see Sun Zecheng and brought back a message from Elder Lei.

The main point is that the Ten Nations Alliance is now buying up prisoners of war everywhere, and the price of prisoners of war has increased.
There were seven acquisitions earlier, and now there is even a sect willing to increase the price by 30% to acquire them.

In short, the original price can no longer be received.

May I ask Master Sun if we can raise the price?
Master Sun replied on the spot:
1. Never follow the trend of price increase, but gradually reduce the price to half or even one-third of the original price;

2. Sell the seven at a higher price;
Li Huayuan, who was listening nearby, quickly interrupted and said, "Lowering the price means that you will stop accepting new prisoners of war, right?"

The Murong brothers also stood there looking at Master Sun in confusion.
"That's right. Stop collecting them for a while. After this trend passes, the prisoners of war will be extremely cheap!"

"Brother Murong, go back and tell your master that this is happening everywhere, customer traffic is being diverted, and business is not as good as before. Use this as an excuse to lower the price."

"Yes!" The Murong brothers responded and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

The Murong brothers stopped and looked at Sun Zecheng.

"You two brothers, take advantage of these few years to save up more spirit stones."

"The Secret Pavilion is currently researching how to use the demon pill to refine a pill similar to the foundation-building pill."

“In a few years, perhaps Maple Forest Pavilion will have a pill similar to the Foundation Establishment Pill.”

"Also, this matter must be kept secret. Not everyone can buy it even inside the Yellow Maple Valley!"

"I know!" Li Huayuan and the Murong brothers responded at the same time.

The Murong brothers were delighted. Although they had frequent missions to and fro, half of their time was spent on the commuting and only the other half on cultivation, but with the help of the powerful medicinal properties of Fenglin Pills, their cultivation growth rate did not slow down at all. Once this pill-forming medicine similar to the Foundation Establishment Pill came out, forming a pill would be a sure thing!
The Murong brothers were overjoyed and said goodbye.

At the same time, Li Huayuan was thinking of something else:

If such a medicine is really developed, there is no doubt that the first supplier must be Master Sun!

That is to say, Master Sun is not unable to form a pill in this lifetime!

"My Huangfeng Valley is going to prosper!" Li Huayuan blurted out.

"Why did Master say this?"

“Hehe, as long as you, the master’s disciple, can reach the Golden Core stage, it will be hard for our Huangfeng Valley not to prosper!”

If the disciple is invincible, the master will definitely benefit from it. Li Huayuan has already gained both fame and fortune, and he is extremely excited to think that the master's disciple can go even further!

I have already achieved the Golden Elixir, but you just can’t see it!

Sun Zecheng said calmly:

"The secret chamber may not succeed, so this matter needs to be kept secret."

"I know how to keep secrets!" Li Huayuan nodded repeatedly and continued excitedly: "Disciple, you can do it. I know you, you can do it!"

"Let's talk about the performance projects." Sun Zecheng didn't want to continue this topic.

"Yes, Master, if you stop purchasing new prisoners, what will happen to the subsequent performances?"

"We originally planned to arrange for the prisoners of war to go mining after they recognized their master, but they will not go for now and will be training as sparring partners instead."

"Sparring partner?"

"Yes, all the foundation-building disciples of the Yellow Maple Valley must take turns to participate in the training and fight against these prisoners of war."

"Let these Mulannu who have recognized their master use their spiritual arts, their group cooperation formation spiritual arts, so that the foundation-building disciples of Huangfeng Valley can become familiar with and adapt to fighting with spiritual arts."

"Okay!" Li Huayuan naturally understood the meaning.

"In addition, during the training period, all disciples of the Yellow Maple Valley will be regarded as carrying out tasks and will be paid salaries."

"it is good!"

"The training ground is open to spectators. Real training is also real performance. Audiences are allowed to watch and accumulate experience in fighting the Mulan tribe together! Thank you for taking care of the training ground, Master!"

"it is good!"

……

The various sects of the Ten Nations Alliance, represented by the Shadow Sect and the Taihong Sect, have tried every possible means to attract audiences.

Each one is more exciting than the other!
Each one is more invincible than the other!
At first, the Shadow Sect attracted customers with its bloody brutality.
The audience at Yuanjialing in Huangfeng Valley quickly became sparse.

“Huang Fenggu is no longer viable!”

"Huang Fenggu is like a woman! He can't even bear to kill a prisoner! In our Shadow Sect, we have a wonderful show of gouging out eyes, disemboweling, pulling out tendons, skinning, and beheading!"

"Who else who has seen our Shadow Sect would go to see the Yellow Maple Valley?"

The Shadow Sect regards the Yellow Maple Valley as its opponent, and wantonly denigrates the Yellow Maple Valley and boasts that it is bloody and brutal enough.

In response, Huang Fenggu not only did not refute, but instead,
Under the instruction of Sect Leader Sun, Elder Lei admitted that the prisoners of war from Huangfeng Valley were bought back to work and earn money and would not be killed. The prisoner project of Huangfeng Valley was indeed not working and now they could not pay a high price, so they could only purchase them at a lower price.

Everyone is raising their prices, but you, the Maple Forest Pavilion of the Yellow Maple Valley, are lowering your prices?!

Who sold it to you?!
Huang Fenggu quickly became the object of ridicule: he had the upper hand, but was too stingy to kill the prisoners, so he failed!

This was the first time since the establishment of the Tiancheng branch of Fenglin Pavilion that it was ridiculed for not knowing how to manage or do business.

However, after the two Yuanying masters of the Ten-Nation Alliance learned that Huangfeng Valley was using Mulan prisoners of war to train disciples, they issued a commendation notice to Huangfeng Valley, encouraging everyone to learn from Huangfeng Valley.

But amid the laughter at Huangfeng Valley, no one took it seriously.

The good times in Yellow Maple Valley didn't last long.

The Shadow Sect’s good times didn’t last long either.

Soon, after the news of Thai Red Lantern's live sex spread,
The audience quickly turned to Tai Hong Deng like a whirlwind, cursing the movie as obscene, dirty and disgusting, while watching it with fascination!
Even more, as long as you give spirit stones, you can drag the Mulan female prisoners you like into the small house to carry out the anti-Mulan operation!
So popular!
Especially for those who have money but don't want to go to the front line to fight against male Mulan warriors, here they can find the feeling of defeating the people who ravaged the Mulan nation by spending spirit stones!
Must do it! Fuck her to death! Fuck!
There was even a long queue outside the Thai Red Light Hut!

The Shadow Sect's business quickly plummeted!
"Tai Hongdeng is a brothel owner!"

The Shadow Sect no longer mentions Huangfeng Valley, but instead curses Tai Hongdeng. However, the abuse does not affect Tai Hongdeng's booming business at all.

The Thai red lantern business is so hot that there are naturally many schools that follow suit.

The price of female prisoners of war was rapidly pushed up.

The price of male prisoners of war fell rapidly because no one was interested!
The Mulan people certainly did not just take the beating without fighting back.

They were just a little confused at first.

Over the past thousands of years, the Mulan grassland side of the border had few resources and was extremely desolate, so there was no gain from attacking it.
So it was always the Tiannan Yan tribe defending and the Mulan people attacking.

So they didn't expect that one day so many Tiannan monks would venture deep into the grassland to plunder mages!

After being stunned for a while, Mulanfas came to his senses and began to organize revenge.

A group of Jindan monks from the Ten-Nation Alliance who went to the front line to hunt were ambushed and retaliated by the Mulan Master, and most of them were killed or injured!

Among them, the two brothers surnamed Huang, relying on their profound cultivation and powerful brotherly cooperation, not only escaped, but also brought back five male prisoners of war at the foundation-building level.

But when they returned to Tiantian City, the buyer who had been verbally agreed upon in advance went back on his word!
The two Huang brothers were furious at the time and the two sides almost came to blows. Fortunately, the patrol team of the Ten-Nation Alliance arrived in time.

In this way, this transaction dispute was quickly reported to the headquarters of the Ten-Nation Alliance.

"Tell me what's the matter." Although Madam Qi was a woman, she was extremely majestic at this moment.

The original purchaser said: The market price is no longer what it was before, and it is unreasonable to close the deal at the original price.

The two Huang brothers said: I went to the frontline only because you agreed on the price. I narrowly escaped death. So many people were ambushed by the Mulan people and couldn't come back. Now you tell me that you don't want it after the price is lowered, then you are cheating me!
Original acquirer: It was just a verbal intention and not a real contract.

"Enough!" Madam Qi called a halt decisively.

As the leader of the Ten-Nation Alliance, Madam Qi would definitely prefer to go to the front line:

"It's enough to have an agreement. There is no verbal intention. You are old enough and you are just joking like a three-year-old child!"

The original purchaser said: We did not earn any spirit stones from the purchase of the prisoners of war, and we simply do not have the spirit stones to pay.

"Oh? Are you playing tricks at the Ten-Nation Alliance headquarters?" Madam Qi was angry.

The original purchaser panicked, "It's not that we don't have any spirit stones. Normally, it's just a deposit penalty for breach of contract. How about I double the compensation and give you two brothers five male prisoners of war? I really can't afford the spirit stones!"

This compensation was normal and reasonable. Madam Qi was too lazy to argue with him: "That's it, pay five and get out of here!"

It was settled in no time.

But not long after, the two Huang brothers came with ten more prisoners of war. It turned out that no one would accept male prisoners of war when they asked around!

So he turned around and looked for Madam Qi, still wanting to ask the original buyer for spirit stones.

"What a crap thing!" Madam Qi didn't expect him to be so nagging. She regretted it at this moment. She should have let the two brothers choose for themselves!
But I have already made the decision on their behalf and agreed to the compensation plan. It is not right to go back and look for the original transaction party now!
Madam Qi touched her forehead and felt a headache. How to solve it?

These prisoners of war were all acquired from Fenglin Pavilion, oh yes, Fenglin Pavilion!

Madam Qi immediately asked someone to invite Pavilion Master Lei of Fenglin Pavilion to come over.

Seeing that Madam Qi had asked for it, Pavilion Master Lei readily bought the ten prisoners of war at half the original purchase price.
The younger of the two Huang brothers was still mumbling about agreeing with the original purchaser to a higher price than this.
"What? If you have any objections, just cancel this matter and I will return it to you! Go back and ask the original buyer for it!" Mrs. Qi was furious.

Fortunately, the elder brother was more mature and perceptive than his younger brother. He grabbed his younger brother and signaled him to shut up, while repeatedly apologizing and thanking him.

"Get lost! You ungrateful bastard!"

The two Huang brothers led the prisoners and followed Elder Lei to the Fenglin Pavilion in Tiantian City for the handover.

After receiving the demon pill from Elder Lei,

The Huang brothers were overjoyed and were about to negotiate a price with Elder Lei to capture prisoners of war for Fenglin Pavilion.

"I just bought it for Madam Qi's sake. Fenglin Pavilion doesn't make appointments. We will put up a sign in front of the door when we buy it."

Elder Lei pointed to the sign in front of the door, which stated the purchase price was only one-third of the original price.

“Who would sell it to you at such a low price!” Huang’s younger brother yelled.

Pavilion Master Lei just laughed it off.
Even Elder Lei could see it now. Even if the price was only one-third of the previous price or even lower, someone would soon beg to sell it to Maple Forest Pavilion.

Because there's not much use in keeping them.

……

From that day on, the Ten-Nation Alliance headquarters often had similar breach of contract disputes.
Finally, Madam Qi learned her lesson and asked both parties on the spot if they were willing to accept this solution. If they didn't want to, they could handle it themselves! If you want to fight, you can go to the martial arts arena and fight!

As for Fenglin Pavilion, we will introduce you to the acquisition, but you can negotiate the price yourselves.

Those people ran to Fenglin Pavilion and saw that the purchase price was less than one-third of what they had paid before they set out!

A few people sold, but many more were reluctant to sell and wanted to wait for the price to go back up.

In this way, Elder Lei bought nine more at one-third of the original price. Then the transport team brought back a message from Sect Leader Sun.
Continue to lower the price and buy it at one-fourth of the original price.
