Only after becoming emperor did he realize he was in a fantasy world of immortal cultivation.

The sunset glow drapes the earth in colorful robes.

After leaving the main hall, Lin Yuan went to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

Small room.

Boss Qian personally poured tea for Lin Yuan.

The teapot was filled to eight-tenths full, and Boss Qian gently placed it back on the table.

"Master Lin, this tea is a new spiritual tea from Baibaozhai. Please have a taste." Boss Qian's face was filled with a fawning smile, but it was not deliberate.

Lin Yuan slowly picked up the cup, took a sip, and said, "Not bad."

Upon hearing this, Boss Qian beamed with joy.

Then, at Lin Yuan's prompting, he sat down opposite him with a respectful expression.

Lin Yuan looked at Boss Qian. He had come to Baibaozhai this time only because he had received a message from Boss Qian yesterday.

They said they had important matters to discuss with him and hoped he could come over when he had time.

Boss Qian wanted to rehearse his words, but when Lin Yuan glanced at him, he immediately said respectfully, "Master Lin, I'm troubling you to come here today, mainly for... two matters."

As he spoke, Boss Qian slowly stood up. "The first thing is for Brother Sherlin."

Seeing this, Lin Yuan's gaze shifted slightly upwards, following Boss Qian's movements.

"The magical artifacts that Master Lin brought a few days ago have all been sold out."

Lin Yuan was not surprised to hear this.

The magical artifacts he forged last time were top-notch in both practicality and appearance.

Huachao Market is the most prosperous place in the Gong clan's territory, and it has no shortage of wealthy cultivators.

"Thanks to the monk Torlin, I've made quite a bit of money." Boss Qian's heart overflowed with joy as he thought of the 30,000 spirit stones in his storage bag.

After speaking, he bowed deeply to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan accepted the gift without hesitation.

"The second thing..." Boss Qian hesitated as he spoke.

Lin Yuan: "Boss Qian, please speak freely."

Upon hearing this, Boss Qian finally spoke up: "To be honest, Cultivator Lin, with this funding, my previously shelved shop expansion plan can finally be officially launched."

"Oh? That's a good thing," Lin Yuan chuckled.

He then added, "Congratulations."

Upon hearing this, Boss Qian bowed to Lin Yuan.

He hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "However... if Cultivator Lin brings any more magical artifacts, I'm afraid I'll have difficulty..."

After the branch is opened, a lot of money will need to be invested in its operation.

In this way, the amount of money in his pocket will shrink significantly.

Lin Yuan immediately nodded in understanding, "It's nothing."

He can take it to someone else.

Upon hearing this, Boss Qian's face immediately fell as if the sky had fallen. How could this be nothing? This was a huge problem.

The reason he hasn't fully committed to opening a branch is because of this concern.

If Lin Yuan were to forge a new magical artifact, and he couldn't afford the price here, then the cheaper option would naturally go to other shops.

For him, branch stores are certainly important.

But compared to the magical artifacts Lin Yuan forged, or rather, Lin Yuan himself, they are insignificant.

Boss Qian frowned and hurriedly said, "This... Master Lin, even so, for the sake of our cooperative relationship..."

"I have an idea, Brother Lin, please listen."

After receiving a nod from Lin Yuan, Boss Qian slowly said, "That's how it is."

"Brother Lin, now that this branch has opened, Baibaozhai can be considered a fairly large shop."

As he spoke, Boss Qian cautiously observed Lin Yuan's expression. "I wonder, would Cultivator Lin be interested in joining Baibaozhai?"

Lin Yuan did not speak immediately upon hearing this.

Fearing Lin Yuan might refuse, Boss Qian immediately offered a string of benefits, "If you join us, you'll be just like me, a fellow owner of Baibaozhai. As for profit sharing..."

"Wu Wu, what do you think?"
