Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

The fact that Zhang Chulan paid him for help seems to have given Chen Duo an opportunity to adjust her mindset.

Rather than sending him out to do something, it would be better to send Chen Duo, who was almost addicted to the internet, to help out.

He'll still make money, and it'll even give Chen Duo a sense of validation...

Ok.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Chapter 207 The Money-Making Hermit and the Money-Adding Hermit! (Second Update)

"Brother Liu? Brother Liu." Zhang Chulan's voice on the other end of the phone brought Zhou Fengliu back to his senses.

"Hmm... I heard you. You need someone to help you, right? I happen to have someone here who's free and has nothing to do. Do you want them?"

Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhang Chulan was slightly taken aback. He glanced at Feng Baobao scratching her face in front of him and thought of the candidate Zhou Fengliu had mentioned.

"Brother Liu... the person you're talking about, it wouldn't be... Chen Duo, would it?"

Upon hearing Zhang Chulan guess the candidate, Zhou Fengliu frankly said:

"That's right, it's Chen Duo... She follows orders and can fight..."

After receiving confirmation from Zhou Fengliu, Zhang Chulan silently swallowed.

Even if Zhou Fengliu's words were incredibly persuasive, Zhang Chulan wouldn't dare use them. The Gu poison in Chen Duo's body was no joke.

It's possible... we might just wipe them out in one fell swoop.

"Brother Liu...you're not kidding, are you?"

Do you think I'm joking?

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's question, Zhang Chulan understood that Zhou Fengliu wasn't joking, so he changed his approach and said:

"Brother Liu, it's not that I don't want to think of you when there's good news. Although I came here to ask for your help, it's actually a lucrative opportunity!"

"A lucrative job?"

"Right... Brother Liu, you know Wugensheng, right? He was the leader of Quanxing before. This time, we're going to raid the place where he keeps his collection."

"This Wugensheng has a collecting obsession; he loves collecting strange and rare items, mostly antiques..."

Zhang Chulan used a different method to seduce Zhou Fengliu.

Zhou Fengliu, on the other end of the phone, was not tempted by Zhang Chulan's description. He merely raised an eyebrow, and then seemed to recall the plot of this scene.

Wugensheng's collection?

Isn't that the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley?

The Twenty-Four Seasons Valley is where the Thirty-Six Bandits formed their brotherhood during the Jia Shen Rebellion, and where eight of them mastered the Eight Extraordinary Techniques that have captivated the world of supernatural beings.

...

“Although it’s not very old, an antique is still an antique. Brother Liu, you don’t need to do anything here. We’ll split the antique with Jin Feng and the others on a 30/70 basis.”

Listening to Zhang Chulan mention the profit-sharing ratio on the other end of the phone, Zhou Fengliu quipped:

"How come it's only 70%?"

"Seventy percent of them belong to someone else... Brother Liu, after all, that's the collection of their Quanxing Sect leader."

Despite listening to Zhang Chulan's tempting words for a long time, Zhou Fengliu still didn't agree.

He knew that Wugensheng's collection had already been snatched up by Ma Xianhong's sister.

Not to mention 30%, nothing was left except for a painting.

There are no collectibles, and no antiques.

There was only one Qi formation waiting for them in those twenty-four sections of Tongtian Valley.

This aura is quite powerful; it allows ordinary people to sense the presence of Qi after passing through it once, thus transforming them into extraordinary individuals.

Shall we go take a look?

Zhou Fengliu thought about this question.

Honestly.

He was somewhat interested in the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valleys, after all, according to the original novel, the creator of that place was Zhang Boduan, the Hermit of Ziyang Mountain, an extraordinary extraordinary person.

Even if you're just visiting tourist attractions, this is a place worth checking out.

After thinking it over, Zhou Fengliu glanced at Chen Duo again and decided that he could agree.

Before he could even speak, he heard Feng Baobao speaking with a Sichuan accent on the other end of the phone.

"Why are you saying so much? Give me your phone... I'll talk to him."

Along with these words, Feng Baobao's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Hey? Little Zhou? Come on over, Zhang Chulan is useless, I'll give you money if you come."

Feng Baobao spoke with an air of wealth and arrogance, her bold words catching Zhou Fengliu somewhat off guard.

Feng Baobao is indeed rich.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to be tricked into buying so many bracelets during the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.

"Sister Bao'er? You'll cover the travel expenses, right? Okay, I'll go take a look." Zhou Fengliu readily agreed, taking advantage of the situation.

The phone hangs up.

Zhou Fengliu looked at Chen Duo.

"There's a lucrative job out there, do you want to go?"

"Money?" Upon hearing the word "money," Chen Duo immediately became interested and nodded, indicating that she could.

She'll definitely go if there's money to be made.

Unbeknownst to her, Chen Duo had already begun to resemble Zhou Fengliu in his early days of making money, regardless of how much or how little money he made, as long as he could make money.

Enter Chen Duocen, a layman who makes money.

As for Zhou Fengliu, who now pays extra money to the lay Buddhist, he is now even more unrestrained.

Money needs to be earned, and you should only put in the effort for the amount of money you're paid for... The main principle is "to act according to the amount of money you're paid for".

...

the other side.

Feng Baobao tossed her phone to Zhang Chulan.

"Sister Bao'er, did Brother Liu agree?"

"Hey, didn't you tell me that money can make Zhou do the millstone? Just talk about money directly, why say so much?"

Feng Baobao once again flashed her incredibly clever OK sign.

Seeing Feng Baobao's wit, Zhang Chulan could only sigh.

Who told Feng Baobao to be rich, while he was just a poor guy?

You should know that although Xu Si was very generous to Zhou Fengliu, he was extremely stingy with him...

A raise?

Let's talk about it after we can beat Xiao Zhou.

These are Xu Si's exact words when he heard him propose a pay raise.

...

After speaking with Zhang Chulan and the others on the phone, Zhou Fengliu packed his things and headed towards Guizhou with Chen Duo.

One night passed.

The two did not arrive at the agreed location until noon.

Zhang Chulan, Feng Baobao, and Wang Zhenqiu, who was wearing frameless glasses and a black t-shirt, waited for a while.

"Zhang Chulan... Old Man Xia and Granny Jin Feng have already taken action, but the reinforcements you called for haven't arrived yet?"

Wang Zhenqiu answered a phone call, then looked at Zhang Chulan beside him.

"Yeah, almost there."

"By the way, who did you invite? Let me guess... Could it be Commander Zhou Fengliu?"

Wang Zhenqiu had already guessed something after learning that Zhang Chulan had asked for outside help. Just as he finished speaking, a taxi from Tianjin pulled up in the distance.

...

Upon seeing the taxi, Zhang Chulan, who had not answered Wang Zhenqiu's question, was slightly taken aback.

"No way?"

"Did you take a taxi here?"

Clearly, his bad feeling was right.

As far as the eye could see, Zhou Fengliu was leading Chen Duo out of the taxi.

"Sister Bao'er, come... settle the travel expenses." Zhou Fengliu got out of the car and waved to Feng Baobao.

"Oh."

Feng Baobao responded, then walked over while eating her bread with one hand.

"Miss, ten thousand yuan."

The driver's smile was as radiant as a chrysanthemum.

He never expected that he would be able to get a big fare yesterday, a taxi ride from Tianjin to Guizhou.
