Immortal Emperor's Life As A Son-in-law

"Three, thirty percent?" Loo Zhuo's face immediately fell when he heard Xiao Chen's number.    

    

"Too little? Then four..."    

    

"Don't, don't, don't. Thirty percent is better than those black-hearted people from the Medicine King's Valley."    

    

The Medicine King's Valley had consumed a lot of energy in concocting pills. Therefore, every time they went to the Medicine King's Valley to concoct pills, they would need to give out the ingredients and half of the pills would be left behind.    

    

Therefore, for so many years, if it wasn't necessary, Loo Zhuo rarely went to the Medicine King's Valley to look for them.    

    

Over time, he was able to save up so many ingredients.    

    

"Well, brother, can I ask first, how much do you have?"    

    

"The success rate?" Xiao Chen smiled. That was something he would only think about before he merged with the dragon vein.    

    

Loo Zhuo saw the disdain on Xiao Chen's face and was slightly stunned. He frowned, but he did not feel at ease.    

    

If he handed the ingredients for fifty to sixty batches of pills to the Medicine King's Valley, he would at least be able to succeed by half.    

    

However, if Xiao Chen's percentage of success was lower than the Medicine King's Valley's, and he handed over another thirty percent, then it would be even worse.    

    

When he thought of this, Loo Zhuo couldn't help but hesitate and worry.    

    

"How long can you stay outside?" At this moment, Xiao Chen asked.    

    

"Half a month. ” Loo Zhuo was still thinking about something and replied smoothly.    

    

" If that's the case, then there's no need to be anxious. I'll ask Jiang Loong to book a room for you. If there's nothing else, you can leave now!"    

    

"Ah? ... Only then did Loo Zhuo come back to his senses. Looking at Xiao Chen's determined face, he hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.    

    

When he left, he even turned his head back three times with every step he took. His face was full of pain and reluctance.    

    

Only when the footsteps were far away did Xiao Chen put away all the materials. His stern face finally revealed a smile.    

    

"Who said that there wouldn't be any pie falling from the sky? Isn't that right?"    

    

He was still complaining just now. But now, Xiao Chen already thought that the taste of this huge pie falling from the sky was really not bad!    

    

He immediately returned to Half Mountain Villa and did not return to his bedroom. He found a guest room and immediately sat down cross-legged to concoct the pill.    

    

This test lasted for two days.    

    

In order to warm up, he started with the lowest grade of ingredients. After two days, he had already concocted half of the ingredients.    

    

Just as he was about to continue, someone knocked on the door. Then, Chu Huaiyu pushed open the door and walked in.    

    

"Are you done yet? Have you forgotten what day it is today?"    

    

"Your birthday?" Xiao Chen blinked.    

    

"Your birthday!" Chu Huaiyu rolled her eyes and said unhappily.    

    

"Really? Haha, I forgot about it when I was too busy!" Xiao Chen secretly heaved a sigh of relief and scratched his head in embarrassment.    

    

Seeing this fellow's appearance, Chu Huaiyu could not help but get angry. She said gloomily, "It's not just your birthday. It's also your entire family's birthday today!"    

    

"Ah?" Xiao Chen finally realized that something was wrong.    

    

But before he could react, his ear suddenly hurt.    

    

Chu Huaiyu grabbed his ear and twisted it hard. She dragged him back to the bedroom without saying anything.    

    

She threw him into the bathroom and said through gritted teeth, "I'll give you half an hour. Clean it up and come out!"    

    

Xiao Chen stuck his head out and grabbed the clothes that she threw at him. He said cheekily, "How about we go together?"    

    

The answer was, his nose was almost crooked.    

    

After he finished bathing, Xiao Chen changed into a set of clothes and came out. Chu Huaiyu had already brought her things and sat in the car waiting for him.    

    

At the Brilliant Sun Hotel under the Zhang's's banner, there was a red carpet on the ground and a luxury car beside it.    

    

This posture made Xiao Chen somewhat dumbfounded. Looking at the car plates that clearly belonged to different places, only then did Xiao Chen react.    

    

On the third floor, in the big conference room, there were more than twenty people sitting inside. All of them were wearing suits and tie.    

    

Their faces were all people who frequently appeared in financial and business magazines.    

    

That's right, these were all people from the southeast region. In the exchange meet last time, those people Xiao Chen saved at that time were all people from the southeast region. The family faction. A representative.    

    

Even if he wasn't the president, he was still a manager.    

    

Of course, there were also people from the Heaven Group, Muh's, and Zhang's present. Even the people from the Ye family were present.    

    

The one from the Heaven Group was Gu Changfeng, the one from the Muh's was Muh Zixun, and the representative of the Zhang's was Zhang Huiying.    

    

Xiao Chen's appearance made everyone stand up.    

    

Those who had never seen Xiao Chen before carefully looked at his face. They sized him up from head to toe, but it was very subtle.    

    

Noticing Xiao Chen's gaze, they hurriedly looked away and quickly put on a smiling face.    

    

Suspicion, fear, curiosity, and hesitation.    

    

The complicated emotions could be seen on these people's faces.    

    

As a great master, Xiao Chen was too lazy to be courteous with these people. He waved his hand and gestured for them to sit down.    

    

However, he did not go to the empty main seat. He gently pulled Chu Huaiyu's hand and pressed her on the main seat.    

    

He sat down at the seat beside him. He held his chin and did not say anything.    

    

Chu Huaiyu was still a little stunned, but when she saw Xiao Chen's encouraging gaze, she suppressed her nervousness and immediately opened her mouth.    

    

"First of all, thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come, and also thank you very much..."    

    

After a standard opening speech, Chu Huaiyu went straight to the main topic - Merchant Union.    

    

According to the content of Chu Huaiyu's discussion with Zhang family and Muh family, this meeting was mainly to discuss the establishment of Merchant Union.    

    

To put it bluntly, it was a business alliance similar to the Red Association, but it was formed more freely than the Red Association.    

    

Helping and helping each other, developing together, of course it was the main objective of the Merchant Union.    

    

However, unlike the Red Association, the decision-making level of the Merchant Union would be in the form of a parliament.    

    

The chairman of the Merchant Union was equivalent to the chairman, and every family was a representative.    

    

As for the specific details, it was also one of the things that needed to be decided in this meeting.    

    

Of course, whether or not one wanted to participate depended entirely on their own free will.    

    

However, as a condition to join the Merchant Union, each family had to sign an agreement.    

    

The contents of the agreement were naturally prepared by Chu Huaiyu and the rest. It could only be seen by the participating families.    

    

The framework was not small and the blueprint was well drawn, but it was not a small matter after all.    

    

This would determine the future direction and plans of the various families, and even the future of the family.    

    

Especially the members of the five or six Red Associations.    

    

The moment Chu Huaiyu said that she was willing, these people looked at each other and communicated with each other with their eyes.    

    

Suddenly, silence spread among the people. No one went to answer Chu Huaiyu first.    

    

No one made a decision and many people even quietly looked at Xiao Chen's expression.    

    

However, Xiao Chen looked like he was observing the situation. In any case, he did not have any intention of interrupting.    

    

In fact, everyone knew that there might be more opportunities to join the Merchant Union. They might be able to make their family and business bigger and stronger.    

    

But at the same time, it also meant that this was not a simple cooperation. They were bound to each other. They were bound to each other, and it was inevitable that they would be controlled by others.    

    

"Director Chu, we understand what you mean. But is it really necessary to build this Merchant Union specifically? "    

    

"Even without the Merchant Union, we would still be happy to cooperate with the Chu's!"
