Chapter 156: Yan Ying [more tonight]
What was beyond Wang Cheng's expectations was that the female cultivator Yan Ying, who met him, was not as good as he thought, as a poetic and bookish beauty, but a white swordsman disguised as a man.
When Wang Cheng watched some costume TV series in his previous life, the women dressed as men in the TV series were usually big beauties.
Now this female cultivator Yan Ying is almost like this.
She is dressed as a man, with a pink and white face, handsome and heroic appearance, and has a very sexy look.
Moreover, she looks about in her early twenties, and she doesn't look like a late-stage cultivator who has practiced for eighty or ninety years. Obviously, she has either taken Dingyan Spiritual Things, or the practice of practicing itself has Dingyan effects.
"President Wang is here on time, please sit down first."
Because it was the meeting place he had made to treat him, Yan Ying nodded slightly to Wang Cheng after he came in, stretched out his hand, and made a "invitation" gesture.
"Mr. Wang thanked fellow Taoist Yan for his face and gave him a seat."
Wang Cheng bowed and thanked politely, and then sat down aside.
After he sat down, Yan Ying looked at him with a slightly raised eyes and said, "Fellow Daoist Lan has already told Yan about the matter about Master Wang and Qingyun Sect, but some things still have to be discussed in detail with Master Wang in person before Yan can decide whether to agree to this cooperation."
Speaking of this, she also asked Wang Cheng: "I wonder what Master Wang thinks?"
"Wang thought it was indeed the case."
Wang Cheng nodded first, recognized Yan Ying's words, then paused slightly, and asked back: "But I don't know what fellow Taoist Yan wants to know?"
When Yan Ying heard this, she replied without hesitation: "Yan wants to know what kind of help Qingyun Sect can provide to Yan? How strong can this help be?"
"The help that Qingyun Sect can provide to fellow Yan should be mainly based on spirit stones. Our Qingyun Sect's money-making ability and basic situation. I think fellow Lan also told fellow Yan that if the cooperation is reached, the protection expenses given to fellow Yan by our Qingyun Sect every year will definitely not disappoint fellow Yan."
Wang Cheng first answered Yan Ying's first question, then looked at Yan Ying with deep meaning and said, "As for how great this help can be, please forgive Wang for saying frankly, it depends on how much energy you have in your own way. What reward can you give us after we increase our help!"
Hearing his words, Yan Ying raised her delicate eyebrows and couldn't help but look at him in surprise and said, "Didn't Fellow Daoist Lan tell you about Yan's situation in detail?"
Wang Cheng calmly replied: "Fellow Daoist Lan talked to Wang about the identity and origin of fellow Taoist Yan, but please forgive Wang for taking the blame. Fellow Daoist Yan, you are a female cultivator after all. In Longshan Academy, only you know how much energy a female cultivator like you can exert, I'm afraid you know in your heart."
This made Yan Ying's white and handsome face change immediately.
Anger flashed on her face, as if she was very angry at Wang Cheng's words that belittled the female cultivator.
But looking at Wang Cheng's calm and calm face, the anger she wanted to burst out was stagnant and finally couldn't vent.
After seeing her chest trembling slightly, she looked at Wang Cheng in a cold tone and said, "Does Master Wang look down on female cultivators? Then how could he be willing to come over to meet Yan?"
When Wang Cheng heard her obviously angry words, he quickly stood up and bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist Yan misunderstood. Wang has no intention of looking down on the female cultivator. On the contrary, he admires the female cultivator who knows that Longshan Academy does not like female cultivators but still chooses to practice in Longshan Academy."
After saying that, he thrust his waist again and said in a deep voice: "But fellow Taoist Yan must also know that as the head of Qingyun Sect, Wang cannot influence the major affairs of the sect based on his own likes and dislikes. Therefore, if Wang offended him in his words just now, Wang will apologize to fellow Taoist Yan here, but if Wang's doubts are true, please ask fellow Taoist Yan to answer the questions truthfully."
He also said these words loudly and had no room for compromise.
It's right that he is here to find a backer, but he is not here to ask for help.
Yan Ying's cultivation level in the late stage of foundation building is not worthy of his servitude.
The cooperation between the two sides will be equal before Yan Ying makes a pill.
Qingyun Sect provided her with Yan Ying's resources to form pills, while Yan Ying used her energy to help Qingyun Sect solve some troubles from Longshan Academy.
So before the cooperation is officially confirmed, Wang Cheng must be sure that Yan Ying has that ability, otherwise he might as well use the spirit stones that he wants to provide to Yan Ying to purchase magic weapons and talismans to increase the strength of Qingyun Sect itself.
Yan Ying seemed to be a little impressed by Wang Cheng's words. She looked at Wang Cheng with bright eyes and looked straight into Wang Cheng's eyes, as if she wanted to see if he was rude himself.
But no matter how she looked at her, Wang Cheng looked at her calmly, with no variegated eyes.
Therefore, after she pondered for a moment, her face slightly calmed down, and she nodded slightly to Wang Cheng and said, "It seems that Yan was wrongly blamed Chief Wang just now. Please don't mind. Chief Wang's love for Qingyun Sect also made Yan admire him."
After saying that, he continued, "Yan didn't dare to say how much influence he had in Longshan Academy, but if he helped Qingyun Sect settle the situation from Uncle Jiang's side, Yan thought there was no problem."
"In addition, Master Xiang Weiming, who is in charge of Zhiwen Academy, will leave his post in another year. If there is no accident at that time, it would be that a master Yan's friend from Master Yan came to take charge of Zhiwen Academy. The key points of this are better known than Yan."
Xiang Weiming from the "Zhiwenyuan" is about to leave his post in one year?
This is really good news.
To this day, whenever Wang Cheng thinks of the scene he was played with by Xiang Weiming, he feels secretly regretful.
He is now powerless to take revenge on this person, but if this person can leave the "Zhiwenyuan", he will definitely be happy from the heart.
He saw a joy flashing in his eyes, and he immediately said, "If what fellow Taoist Yan said is true, then Qingyun Sect will naturally be willing to contribute a meager power to fellow Taoist Yan's path!"
"That depends on how much power Mr. Wang and Qingyun Sect can use to support Yan."
Yan Ying smiled faintly on her face, and immediately started discussing the amount of offerings that he bargained with Wang Cheng.
The two of them were unwilling to make concessions easily in this matter. They were all making excuses to fight for their own interests on various excuses, and the quarrel was very fierce.
After bargaining for half a day, both sides formulated the final terms with their own concessions.
According to the results agreed by the two, Qingyun Sect will provide Yan Ying with 15,000 low-grade spirit stones every year in exchange for Yan Ying's protection of Qingyun Sect to a certain extent. This kind of protection must be something Yan Ying can do within the scope of his own ability.
This is the main clause.
In terms of the details, Wang Cheng required that this time limit is up to thirty years. If Yan Ying has not yet successfully formed the pill in thirty years, the terms will automatically expire. If Yan Ying has successfully formed the pill, new terms will be concluded based on the actual situation.
At the same time, Yan Ying's request is that Qingyun Sect must pay ten years of spiritual stones in advance, and in the future, whenever Qingyun Sect actually helps Qingyun Sect solve something, a service fee will be charged. Moreover, if there is anything that needs Qingyun Sect's help, Qingyun Sect must help within its ability.
Judging from this clause, the Qingyun Sect side is undoubtedly at a great disadvantage.
But this is the bare reality.
The reality is that Yan Ying is the leader in this cooperation and has a greater choice than Qingyun Sect.
If she does not cooperate with Qingyun Sect, at most she will not make any profit of this spirit stone and will not lose anything.
If Qingyun Sect can't find a backer to help settle the threat from Baima Layman, it is still unknown what kind of trouble it will encounter in the future.
After the basic cooperation content was negotiated, Wang Cheng suddenly looked at Yan Ying and said, "Fellow Daoist Yan should know that Qingyun Sect had just experienced a big battle and consumed a lot of spiritual stone resources, so now it is basically impossible to pay 150,000 low-grade spiritual stones to Fellow Yan at one time."
After saying that, before Yan Ying changed his face, he immediately continued, "But Wang has a treasure here. If it can be sold through the hands of fellow Daoist Yan, he might be able to do this. I wonder if fellow Daoist Yan is willing to help?"
Sure enough, when Yan Ying, who was about to be angry, had a strong curiosity in her eyes when she heard what he said, "Oh, what kind of treasure is it that can actually be worth 150,000 low-grade spirit stones?"
"That's this thing. I wonder if fellow Daoist Yan can recognize this thing?"
Wang Cheng had already prepared and reached out to touch the storage bag on his waist, and took out the [Life and Death Xuan Ling Mushroom].
"Is this...is this [Life and Death Xuan Ling Mushroom]?"
Yan Ying took the jade box from Wang Cheng with a surprised expression and put it in front of her, then looked up at him with some uncertainty and whispered the recognition result.
Longshan Academy is a top sect among the Confucian sects, and its collection is so rich. As a personal disciple of the Jindan period monk of the academy, Yan Ying certainly has the right to read the collection of books. It is not surprising that he can recognize the [Life and Death Xuan Ling Mushroom] at this moment.
He faced Yan Ying's gaze, smiled and nodded and responded: "It is the [Life and Death Xuan Ling Mushroom]. There are more than a dozen of this Qingyun Sect now. If fellow Daoist Yan can sell it for a normal price, it would be more than enough to raise 150,000 low-grade spirit stones!"
Hearing his words, Yan Ying couldn't help but look at him with envy and sighed: "President Wang is lucky. He can even get such rare things. It seems that there are many treasures hidden in this wilderness area!"
After saying that, he nodded and said, "If Master Wang can really take out more than a dozen [Life and Death Xuanling Mushrooms], that must be enough."
"Since Fellow Daoist Yan thinks this deal can be done, then our cooperation has been achieved. A question that has been hidden in Wang's mind before can be asked for advice from Fellow Daoist Yan."
