"Exactly, it's Tianjian Mountain."

Ignoring the surprise of the grandfather and grandson, Feng Jueyu spoke confidently, "As everyone knows, the largest martial arts family in the south is none other than Tianjian Mountain. And the golden wound medicine has always been a must-have for all martial artists when they travel, with everyone often carrying this kind of thing. I have already conducted an investigation, and there is no golden wound medicine in the world today that can match my first-class golden wound medicine. If this item were to appear, it would certainly cause a great stir..."

Shangguan Lingyun was extremely excited and added, "Not just a great stir, it could even shock the entire Tai Xuan continent."

"Is that so?" Feng Jueyu smiled slightly and suddenly raised his voice, "That's even better. We can use this item to attract those high-and-mighty people from Tianjian Mountain, making them our most loyal customers. Without us, they won't have the first-class golden wound medicine, making them unable to do without us. Grandfather, Ruomeng, think about it. If even Tianjian Mountain has to use our golden wound medicine, who in this southern land would dare to touch us..."

"That's right, that's right..."

It was clear that the grandfather and grandson were very excited at this moment. Both understood the principle of 'rarity is value.' If they could attract Tianjian Mountain with the secret formula for the first-class golden wound medicine, they would certainly secure this powerful ally. Then, if anyone dared to harm the Shangguan family, they would have to consider the massive presence of Tianjian Mountain...

"But, how can we make Tianjian Mountain take this medicine seriously?" Shangguan Ruomeng raised a question.

Feng Jueyu had already thought this through. Sima Ruyu, his disciple, wasn't taken in vain. Through her, it wouldn't be difficult to get Tianjian Mountain to notice the first-class golden wound medicine.

Of course, there were some things Feng Jueyu didn't plan to reveal, such as taking on a disciple. If these two knew that he had taken Sima Ruyu as a disciple within two days of meeting her, they would surely be shocked...

So Feng Jueyu rolled his eyes and said, "Ruomeng, don't you know Miss Sima? Can't you just inform her when we sell the first-class golden wound medicine?"

"That's right, why didn't I think of that?" Shangguan Ruomeng exclaimed happily, her fair face turning red with excitement, and even her bosom trembled slightly, which couldn't help but make Feng Jueyu glance a few times, secretly praising its "grandeur."

Shangguan Ruomeng didn't notice Feng Jueyu's unusual gaze and said with boundless imagination, "Great, now we only have the problem of promotion left. Grandfather, I plan to put up banners in several shops in the city, heavily promoting the first-class golden wound medicine. The sales might be good, and this month's quota might not be a problem at all..."

Shangguan Lingyun nodded with a smile, "That's right, that's right..."

Feng Jueyu was speechless. These two really treated him like one of their own. Did he say it was theirs? In the blink of an eye, they treated the first-class golden wound medicine as their own. There were no such people who crossed the river and then dismantled the bridge.

He interrupted, "Wait, what did you say? Promotion? Using Huairen Hall's banner?"

"Yes, is there a problem?" Shangguan Ruomeng asked doubtfully.

"There's a big problem." Feng Jueyu sat back in his chair, crossing his legs, "Did I tell you that?"

"Ah?"

Upon hearing this, the grandfather and grandson felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them, and they were instantly stunned.

"Feng Jueyu, what do you mean?" Shangguan Ruomeng glared at Feng Jueyu angrily, not even calling him "Big Brother Feng" anymore.

Feng Jueyu was not surprised. The grandfather and grandson usually treated him like family, and naturally considered anything he brought out as belonging to the Shangguan family. This wasn't unusual.

But things shouldn't be handled this way.

Feng Jueyu said, "What do you mean? The first-class golden wound medicine belongs to that high-ranking expert. Since they brought it out, they want to profit from it. What are we doing by snatching it blindly? That's crossing the river and dismantling the bridge."

"Uh..." The grandfather and grandson were drenched in sweat, thinking, "Yes, we were so excited that we forgot about the senior expert. Could they just give such a good thing away for nothing?"

Shangguan Ruomeng, thinking about it, lowered her head in shame, "Big Brother Feng, I'm sorry. I didn't think it through. I hope the senior expert doesn't mind. But what are the senior expert's requirements?" Afraid that this wasn't appropriate, Shangguan Ruomeng added, "Whatever the requirements, the Shangguan family will try to meet them..."

The senior expert not minding? What if Big Brother Feng minds? Feng Jueyu's nose twitched; this girl was really annoying.

Feng Jueyu was speechless, thinking, "Forget it, I'll have to push this to the 'senior expert.'" He said, "There are no requirements, it's just a matter of cooperation. The Shangguan family will provide the funds to purchase the materials in the formula, and I will represent the senior expert to find someone to prepare it. Of course, we can't use Huairen Hall's banner, as the current Shangguan family is not very stable. However, the Shangguan family must provide a certain level of security on top of the funding."

"Reasonable." Before Shangguan Ruomeng could respond, Shangguan Lingyun interjected, "Very reasonable. Once this medicine is out, many people will have ulterior motives. But, Xiaoyu, even if you find someone, can you guarantee that the formula won't be stolen?"

Feng Jueyu naturally understood Shangguan Lingyun's meaning. Wasn't it about preparing it under their watch? What about Jishi Fang? You can't just leave them out.

Feng Jueyu had already thought this through and said, "Grandfather, you don't need to worry about this. With the senior expert, everything is fine. The senior expert is used to being alone and doesn't like being disturbed. If some minor troublemakers come, you can send people to deal with them. If a high-level expert comes, the senior expert will naturally take action..."

With this explanation, the grandfather and grandson understood. Thinking about the killers who died in the rain at the hands of the "senior expert," none of them died a pleasant death. Moreover, the person who could teach Shangguan Ruofan such sword skills couldn't be bad.

However, both the grandfather and grandson came from a business background and had business acumen that was no less than Feng Jueyu's. They carefully pondered Feng Jueyu's words and felt something was off.

After a long time, Shangguan Ruomeng seemed to realize something, her grateful expression suddenly changing as she asked, "Big Brother Feng, is this the senior expert's idea, or yours?"

Uh!

Feng Jueyu was taken aback. Damn, this girl isn't stupid, she even figured this out?

Shangguan Lingyun also realized, looking at Feng Jueyu and Shangguan Ruomeng with a meaningful smile. In his heart, money was no longer important; what mattered was that the Shangguan family could be united. This was enough. As for whether it was Feng Jueyu's idea or the senior expert's, it didn't need to be considered.

However, Shangguan Ruomeng was not one to be taken advantage of. Seeing Feng Jueyu's shifty gaze, which clearly showed his cunning, she asked.

Feng Jueyu, of course, wasn't one to back down. He immediately said, "Of course, it's the senior expert's idea. Why do you ask?"

Playing dumb, damn it, I'll play dumb. What can you do?

Shangguan Ruomeng smiled sweetly, saying with a pointed tone, "Why does Ruomeng feel this is Big Brother Feng's idea? Big Brother Feng, did the senior expert teach you to say those words?"

"Yes, so what? Cough, cough..."

Shangguan Ruomeng put on a "you must be kidding" face, teasing, "Oh? It seems the senior expert cares a lot about the Shangguan family. I'm truly honored. But how do we cooperate?"

As she spoke, she didn't avoid Shangguan Lingyun's presence, leaning in close with a peach-blossom-like face, her breath sweet and fragrant, her soft and affectionate gaze making Feng Jueyu's heart race, and he quickly dodged.

This woman is naturally seductive, capable of seducing to death without any compensation. If you dare to invade me again, I... I'll take care of you...

Feng Jueyu turned his face, deliberately avoiding Shangguan Ruomeng's seductive gaze, and said nervously, "This, it's just a matter of profit sharing, eighty-twenty."

"Okay." Shangguan Ruomeng straightened her slender waist, happily saying, "The senior expert is so considerate of the Shangguan family, only taking twenty percent of the profit. Grandfather, with eighty percent, the Shangguan family should be able to take control of the chamber of commerce."

What? What? Did I hear that right? Feng Jueyu's jaw almost dropped, "Wrong, wrong, it's me... the senior expert takes eighty percent, the Shangguan family takes twenty percent."

"What?" Shangguan Ruomeng stood up abruptly, angrily saying, "Twenty percent? No way. The Shangguan family provides the people, the funds, and the effort, and only gets twenty percent. That's too little, no way."

Hey, girl, the formula is mine, you don't have the right to negotiate...

Feng Jueyu really wanted to say that, but he couldn't. So he used the senior expert's tone and said, "Cough, let's put it this way. The senior expert's idea is to take at least seventy percent, and the Shangguan family gets thirty percent. Sister Ruomeng, that's fair enough. After all, the formula is theirs. If you don't cooperate, there are plenty of others who would do it. Grandfather, right?"

Shangguan Lingyun had a look of nonchalance, stroking his beard and smiling, "This, the matter of Huairen Hall, let Ruomeng decide, let Ruomeng decide..."

Damn, this old fox. Feng Jueyu shot a glance at Shangguan Lingyun and heard Shangguan Ruomeng say, "Thirty percent is also unacceptable. Let's be fair and cooperate, fifty-fifty profit sharing."

Fifty-fifty? Why don't you just rob?

Feng Jueyu was so angry that his mouth twisted, and he said firmly, "No way, seventy-thirty."

"Fifty-fifty..."

"Seventy-thirty..."

The two argued incessantly, neither giving in. Shangguan Lingyun pretended not to hear, smiling all the time.

Feng Jueyu's firmness also made Shangguan Ruomeng extremely angry. After a long time, Shangguan Ruomeng slammed the table and said, "Sixty-forty, or no deal."

Feng Jueyu was about to say "No way," but Shangguan Lingyun suddenly stopped him, "Xiaoyu, the Shangguan family has treated you well, hasn't it? Have some pity on us, this family..."

Damn, playing the emotional card... Feng Jueyu felt wronged...

"Big Brother Feng~" Before she could finish, Shangguan Ruomeng's tone suddenly changed to a soft and gentle voice, a never-before-heard coo that almost made Feng Jueyu stumble and fall.

Seduction...

Damn...

Seeing Shangguan Ruomeng use seduction, Feng Jueyu immediately surrendered, raising his hands over his head, "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you. Sixty-forty it is."

Thus, under the combined pressure of Shangguan Lao Ye and Shangguan Miss, Feng Jueyu gave up that one percent of the profit...
