Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 188 - 86: Golden Body Pill, Vajra Order!
Lake bottom.
Inside the cabin.
"Is this the iron ore you were talking about?" Yang Kai looked at the mountain of iron ore in front of him, his mouth agape, as lake water instantly rushed into his mouth.
"Yes, exactly these!" Jiang Ning nodded, "Does what Manager Yang just said still hold?"
"This..." Yang Kai hesitated momentarily.
With just one glance, he knew that the iron ore in front of him, if calculated at market price, would be worth at least ten thousand taels of silver.
Ten thousand taels of silver, even for the Weapon Forging Shop's years of operation, would be hard to produce easily in a short span of time.
Consequently, getting ten thousand taels of silver in cash on short notice might even deplete the shop's liquidity.
"What? Is Manager Yang going to go back on his word?" Jiang Ning spoke up.
Yang Kai took another look at Jiang Ning, whose face was calm with not a ripple, completely unable to see through what Jiang Ning was thinking.
After pondering for a moment and thinking about Elder Gong's prior attitude towards Jiang Ning, and recalling Jiang Ning's prior actions, Yang Kai promptly nodded, "As the Store Manager of the Weapon Forging Shop, I represent the face of the shop! Since I have spoken, naturally, I won't go back on my word!"
Jiang Ning asked, "Do we need to discuss the price? After all, these iron ores are from a sunken ship underwater, moving them will require manpower and resources!"
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
"No need!" Yang Kai shook his head, "Manpower and resources, how much could that cost? Such trivial money isn't something to quibble about with Brother Jiang."
"That sounds good!" Jiang Ning nodded, "In that case, I entrust these iron ores to Manager Yang! Once Manager Yang finishes tallying, you can send the silver to my residence."
Yang Kai looked at Jiang Ning, "Does Brother Jiang intend to return now?"
"Yes!" Jiang Ning nodded, "I'll be income at the Inspection Office in three days; I need some time to prepare."
"I see!" Yang Kai immediately understood, then he asked, "But aren't you worried I might count less iron ore in your absence?"
"I trust Manager Yang!"
...
After heading ashore, Jiang Ning immediately proceeded towards the Wanhua Building.
He remembered what Lin Qingyi had previously told him: to come to her upon achieving Great Success in Refining Skin.
She still had things left by Shen Congyun.
After bidding farewell to Jiang Ning, Yang Kai, too, headed to the outer city's Weapon Forging Shop.
The ten thousand taels worth of iron ore needed urgent arrangements to be fished out and counted, settling accounts with Jiang Ning as soon as possible.
Although the iron ore was a bit much for the Weapon Forging Shop, it was still manageable.
After being forged into pig iron and sold to other counties, it could still turn a profit.
...
Wanhua Building.
On the open-air loft of the rooftop.
"Young Master Jiang, please wait here for a moment! The master is currently napping, and I dare not disturb her at this time," Little Lv apologized to Jiang Ning.
"It's fine; I can wait!" Jiang Ning responded.
"Thank you for your understanding, Young Master!" Little Lv bowed gracefully, then added, "Usually, the master will wake up in about half an hour."
"Alright!" Jiang Ning nodded.
He wasn't in a hurry at this moment.
Because here, he could still practice without any disturbance.
After Little Lv left, Jiang Ning drank a few sips of iced tea to quench his thirst.
Even though it was already October, the weather was still excruciatingly hot without a hint of rain.
Not the slightest coolness of autumn.
Jiang Ning took another sip of iced tea, feeling much cooler inside.
Then, he glanced in the direction of Lin Qingyi's room.
"I wonder what Shen Congyun actually left for me?"
"Requiring me to achieve Ninth Grade Great Success, with skin tough as copper, before I could come again?"
Jiang Ning muttered to himself internally.
Then he sat cross-legged, eyes closed.
He didn't want to waste time waiting blankly for Lin Qingyi to awaken.
Then, he thought for a moment, and decided to refine the Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pill inside.
With the Molten Furnace Pill Secret Skill and his Qi Blood Power as the fuel, he was able to quickly digest the medicinal power of the Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pill.
This pill's medicinal power could not only enhance his foundational strength and heritage but also help him quickly complete the Power Training process of Martial Arts Eighth Grade.
Boom—
In his visualization.
Intense flames enveloped the furnace.
His body felt as if flames rose within, and his body temperature continuously increased; in an instant, it surpassed forty degrees and still kept climbing.
On the other side.
Dingling—
Lin Qingyi leisurely woke from the soft couch.
She picked up a cup of tea from the table and took a sip to moisten her throat.
"Little Lv, is there something?" Lin Qingyi then spoke.
With her abilities, she was instantly aware of Little Lv waiting outside the door.
Outside.
Little Lv, hearing the voice from inside, bowed slightly and whispered softly, "Master, Young Master Jiang is currently waiting upstairs."
"Why has he come?" Lin Qingyi was slightly surprised as she put down the tea cup in her hand.
"I'm not sure!" Little Lv responded softly.
"Could it be that the lad has already achieved Ninth Grade Great Success?" Lin Qingyi murmured softly.
"I must go out and see him! If he really has achieved Ninth Grade Great Success at this time, his talent is truly terrifying!"
Then, she picked up her clothes from a screen nearby and got dressed.
Moments later.
Lin Qingyi, dressed in a light gauze long dress and barefoot given the hot weather, with thin clothing on her upper body revealing the white tube top and slender shoulders, glanced at Little Lv and then dismissed her.
"You go on with your work! I can go there alone."
"Yes, Master!" Little Lv bowed to Lin Qingyi respectfully, then slowly retreated.
...
