"Hmph, he was lucky this time. God is not as good as man, but he won't be so lucky next time."

The alchemist said indifferently, "Don't worry, I already have a new plan."

Su Chen walked with Zhang Mian for a while, and when he was about to part ways, Su Chen suddenly said: "Mr. Mian, are those from your clan just now?"

"Well, he is my third uncle. He and my father are cousins. Strictly speaking, they are called cousins. His status in the Zhang family is second only to my father. The young man is his son. My clan

Brother, Zhang Bai."

Zhang Mian was stunned, but introduced without any concealment.

"Your relationship isn't very good, isn't it?"

Su Chen smiled playfully and said.

Zhang Mian was stunned. He had behaved very politely just now and didn't reveal any of his personal emotions.

"How did you tell?"

Zhang Mian asked.

"Since there are some things that may not be convenient for you to say, it is also not convenient for me to speak, lest I be suspected of prying and provoking."

Su Chen smiled lightly and said.

Zhang Mian was indeed pretending before and felt that the family scandal should not be made public.

Seeing what Su Chen said, Zhang Mian sighed secretly. He was confused. Many people knew about this, so why would he deliberately hide it from anyone.

"You guessed it right. This third uncle has been fighting openly and secretly with my father since he was a child. Later, my father became the head of the family. When he came to our area, his son also fought openly and secretly with me.

Infighting. What you just saw was nothing more than a face-saving effort."

"Hmm... fighting openly and secretly, that's true. I don't know if the alchemist next to them has Qilin Powder on him?"

Su Chen's seemingly unintentional words made Zhang Mian's expression change drastically, and then he returned to normal and began to think deeply.

…

The yard of the head of the Zhang family.

"What, Shiyi detoxified you?"

Zhang Long was shocked, "When did Xiao Shiyi have such ability?"

Zhang Mian then told Su Chen's story, but Zhang Long only half-believed him: "I never expected that such a strange person could come from the outer city. He is so young and has so much attainment in alchemy. It's very extraordinary."

one."

This is the purpose of Zhang Mian's visit to his father. He told Su Chen that he wanted to ask the housekeeper, which was actually an excuse. In fact, he, the eldest young man, knew everything about the Zhang family's store.

It was so clear that there was no need to ask the housekeeper.

He actually came to see his father because he wanted to give Su Chen a better shop in the Zhang family, but he couldn't make the decision on the shop himself and had to give his father's nod.

"Want to open an elixir store? Do you still want to give him the store on Tianxin Street?"

Zhang Long was shocked, "Ordinary people would never even think about opening an elixir shop in the inner city. He is just a young man. Even though he has some attainments in the alchemy path, he wants to start from

To break out of the alchemy world in the inner city, I guess only the alchemy immortals can do it."

"But he is very persistent. I think maybe he will have some unexpected tricks?"

Zhang Mian insisted.

"If he had any means at hand, why didn't he use them when he was in the outer city? I haven't heard of any new elixirs being released in the outer city recently."

Zhang Long shook his head and said.

"Father, no matter what, he will always be my savior. If the poison of Qilin Powder is not cured, I don't know what the result will be."

Zhang Mian said, "Anyway, that store has not been of much use in our hands, why not give it a try?"

"Well, our Zhang family has always valued integrity the most, and Zhifa must be repaid."

Although Zhang Long felt that Su Chen would definitely not be able to achieve anything, the son he relied on most spoke and he nodded in agreement, "But if you want to invite him to come to my place, I will

Talk to him face to face."

"Father, you..."

Zhang Mian was stunned and asked.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to him. It's just that since our Zhang family's store is such a good store, it seems a little inappropriate to rent it out directly.

.It is better to use a cooperative approach. I want to talk to him and implement the issue of benefit distribution."

Zhang Long smiled.

Zhang Mian felt relieved, thought about it for a while, and asked tentatively: "Father, the matter of me being poisoned by Qilin San is really strange. Who could have done it? Do you have any clue?"

Zhang Long couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and after a while he said: "This poison must be a scourge within Xiao Qiang. I just don't know which lard-stricken fool it is.

It's made of worms, don't ask me to find him, or else I'll cut him into pieces!"

"Father, do you think it could be..." Zhang Mian hesitated for a while, then said, "Third Uncle?"

When these words came out, Zhang Long was not surprised at all. He said: "I have also suspected him, but there is no evidence. That cunning bitch, don't let me catch him."

"Father, we must pay special attention to Third Uncle. If it is really him, if he fails once, he will definitely want to come again. Are those spies of yours still there?"

Zhang Mian asked.

"Still, let them keep an eye on the third child day and night starting from tomorrow. If there is any abnormal situation, they will report back."

Zhang Longdao.

…

The meeting between Su Chen and Zhang Long was very relaxed. When Zhang Long saw Su Chen's demeanor, he secretly praised him in his heart. He did not look like an ordinary person. He gave the shop to

His management is not necessarily a bad thing.

As the head of a large family, Zhang Long knows how to behave. Since he has decided to let Su Chen run the store, he will not mention any useless nonsense.

Su Chen also got angry with Zhang Mian in advance and knew that Zhang Long planned to change the rental model to a cooperation model.

Zhang Long told Su Chen many secrets circulating in the elixir industry in the inner city, hinting to Su Chen that it was not easy to do elixir business in the inner city.

Finally, to highlight the important point, the Zhang family decided to lend Su Chen a store on Tianxin Street. You know, Tianxin Street is one of the most prosperous commercial streets in the inner city.

, is a prime location for opening an elixir shop.

Such a superior store was completely beyond Su Chen's previous expectations, and Su Chen thanked Zhang Long sincerely.

Finally, the two parties reached an agreement in a friendly atmosphere, leasing the store for one year first, and then renewing the lease when it expires. The Zhang family not only provided the store, but also provided materials and a

Half of them had a manpower, and Su Chen had the other half of a manpower and alchemy skills.

The profits earned will be split 50-50 by both parties.

The negotiation process went very smoothly. Zhang Long originally thought that Su Chen would bargain a bit on the share ratio, but unexpectedly he agreed without blinking an eye. It was very generous.

The two parties reached a verbal agreement very happily, and agreed that when Su Chen made preliminary preparations, the two parties would sign a formal contract.
