Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Chapter 368 Digging One's Own Grave

Beitang Family.

Beitang Feng looked troubled as he faced Nangong Shengtian, who was composed and at ease, and said with a wry smile, "Ancestor Nangong, please stop making things difficult for me!"

Nangong Shengtian glanced at him and said indifferently, "Beitang Feng, considering the relationship between our two families over so many years, are you really unwilling to do me this small favor? I promise you that once the deal is successful, I will repay all the previous debts to you!"

When he thought of the secret recipe he had received. Your next journey awaits at My Virtual Library Empire

It was a secret recipe that could double the rate of successful pill concoction and the rate of producing premium-grade pills!

With the low prices at which he obtained medicinal ingredients from the Beitang Family, even selling them at one-tenth of the price would be profitable.

That was precisely where Nangong Shengtian's confidence lay.

Beitang Feng, with a mournful face, said, "Ancestor Nangong, for your sake, I've already been scolded by the people from Medicine King Valley several times for shouldering that previous debt of fifteen trillion Silver. Now you want me to procure another ten trillion Silver of goods, it's simply impossible!"

As it turned out.

Nangong Shengtian had come this time to procure another ten trillion Silver worth of medicinal ingredients from the Beitang Family.

However...

They already owed fifteen trillion Silver from before, and it was only because the relationship between the Beitang Family and Medicine King Valley was strong enough that they had been able to delay payment. Otherwise, given the Medicine King Valley's domineering manner of doing things, they would have already come knocking at their door.

Bang!

Nangong Shengtian slammed his cup onto the tea table and angrily said, "Beitang Feng, this time you have to help whether you like it or not. If you help us, I will give you an additional one trillion Silver on top of the debts owed by the Nangong Family as compensation!"

"This…"

Beitang Feng's expression shifted slightly.

Selling medicinal ingredients was not as profitable as selling pills.

One trillion Silver was equivalent to his entire year's profit.

Seeing Beitang Feng tempted, Nangong Shengtian pressed his advantage and said, "Once we take down Treasure Pavilion and seize their market share, I am willing to give you thirty percent of Treasure Pavilion's shops, how about that?"

Thirty percent of the shops?

Beitang Feng's heart trembled, knowing that the shops of Treasure Pavilion were by no means fewer than those of the Nangong Family.

If he could get one trillion Silver in rewards, plus the thirty percent of the shops.

This deal would be equivalent to earning nearly two trillion Silver!

With that thought.

Beitang Feng was about to agree when, at that moment, a servant rushed in, "Master, Ning, the Vice Pavilion Master of Treasure Pavilion, is here requesting an audience!"

"Hmm?"

Beitang Feng was startled, "Ning Luo? What's he doing here?"

Nangong Shengtian's gaze shifted and he said in a deep voice, "I'll excuse myself for a moment!"

"Alright!"

Beitang Feng nodded, then turned to the servant, "Bring the person in!"

A moment later.

Ning Luo appeared in the hall, his face carrying a radiant smile as he greeted, "Mr. Beitang, long time no see, how have you been?"

"Vice Pavilion Master Ning, it has been some time since you last visited my residence, what brings you here today?" Beitang Feng responded coolly, already accustomed to acting superior from having had a stranglehold on the medicinal ingredient supply to Treasure Pavilion for so long.

Ning Luo replied with a wry smile, "Mr. Beitang, you should be aware that recently our Treasure Pavilion and the Nangong Family have been in a price war. We are quickly running out of medicinal ingredients and are urgently

Nangong Shengtian's face glowed with anticipation, "Treasure Pavilion, this is really digging your own grave, hahaha..."

A moment later.

Nangong Shengtian quietly left the Beitang Family, riding away in his luxurious carriage.

But Nangong Shengtian did not notice.

Across from the Beitang Family, on top of a tavern where he was drinking with Ning Luo, Xiao Yi's lips curved up slightly, watching the slowly departing carriage, "Nangong Sheng, you are really digging your own grave!"
