Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Zhou Yiqiao has already made his decision.

Not only did he want to follow Li Wenshi's ideas and exploit the monthly resources of the demon monks, but he also wanted to go further than Li Wenshi's requirements and maximize his profits!

That's right, Zhou Yiqiao plans to take this opportunity to seek some benefits for himself!

After all, the salary of the demon beasts that the Demon Communication Department is responsible for is just a drop in the bucket compared with the resources that Li Wenshi and other elders have from the entire Yingfeng City.

Precisely because the share he occupied was not large, Zhou Yiqiao was confident that after processing the data, all the responsibility would be passed on to Li Wenshi and other elders.

Of course, he owns the moonstone space, and his basic resources can be said to be endless, and all he wants are relatively rare items.

In this way, even if it is handled improperly and the flaw is finally discovered by the sect, there will not be a big problem.

A day passed quickly. After becoming familiar with all the tools and work processes in the Tongyao Department, Zhou Yiqiao and Qijian quickly adapted to the life in the Tongyao Department.

Another seven days passed in the blink of an eye. After Zhou Yiqiao had assigned matters to Qijian and three young men early, he set off to Elder Li's residence to "report" on his work.

......

When Zhou Yiqiao arrived at Li Wenshi's residence, the door was already open for him, and the attendant at the door did not know where he had been arranged by Li Wenshi.

Because of his previous experience of being forcibly placed under house arrest for several months by Li Wenshi, Zhou Yiqiao was extremely cautious this time. He didn't look sideways all the way and went straight to the backyard where Li Wenshi was sitting.

In the octagonal pavilion in the backyard, Li Wenshi was sitting in it drinking tea, and opposite him, a girl wearing a black skirt and a black veil was sitting.

The girl's skin was as good as snow, and the brilliance in her pair of dark jade-like pupils seemed to be rippled by autumn water.

But from the eyes containing friendship, it can be seen that the face of the girl under the veil must be captivating.

"I've met Elder Li."

Zhou Yiqiao withdrew his gaze, stood outside the Octagonal Pavilion, and bowed his hands to Li Wenshi.

"The disciple has followed the elder's instructions and is familiar with all the procedures of the Demon Communication Department. I would also like to ask the elder to tell me the next step."

Li Wenshi was in a good mood today and waved to Zhou Yiqiao with a smile.

"Let's not mention this matter for now. Nephew Zhou Xian is here to try the spiritual tea I just found, Dai Mei."

The old man was so polite that Zhou Yiqiao couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to enter the Bajiao Pavilion, respectfully took the tea cup, and took a sip.

"Sweet and sweet alternately, just like a young girl experiencing the taste of love for the first time. She is reserved and eager to please herself. It is really a good tea."

Li Wenshi was in a happy mood, waving his palms, the teapot on the table flew up, and refilled it for Zhou Yiqiao.

"I didn't expect that nephew Zhou Xian is also a person who knows tea."

Zhou Yiqiao smiled shyly.

"Elder Li praised me very much. After entering the path of immortality, this disciple has cut off most of his oral desires, leaving only the hobby of drinking tea."

Li Wenshi laughed loudly and turned to look at the girl sitting opposite him who had never spoken.

"Yu Yu, grandpa, I really don't understand these arty things. Now that nephew Zhou Xian has answered it for me, you should be satisfied, right?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao immediately understood that the female cultivator in the Jindan realm in front of him was the little granddaughter Li Wenshi had always talked about!

"It turns out it was the eldest lady who was in front of me. Zhou is blind, I hope you can forgive me."

Li Yuyu is not as arrogant as Li Wenshi, but is well-educated and well-mannered.

The girl bowed slightly towards Zhou Yiqiao, her voice was like pearls falling on a jade plate, clear and sweet.

"Senior Brother Zhou is polite. Junior Sister is just an inner disciple of the Demon Sect. Senior Brother should not be so polite. If Senior Brother doesn't mind, just call Yu Yu Junior Sister Yu Yu."

Zhou Yiqiao looked at Li Wenshi tentatively, and seeing that the old man showed no sign of objection, he immediately followed suit and nodded with a smile.

"In that case, I will call you Junior Sister Yuyu."

After getting acquainted, some courtesy is inevitable.

"Senior Brother's Chaoyuan Pill was only refined for a few days. Junior Sister Yuyu succeeded in advancing to the Golden Pill realm so quickly. She is really talented and enviable."

Li Yuyu covered his face and smiled softly, speaking humbly.

"Thanks to senior brother's superb alchemy skills, Chaoyuan Pill with three lines of pills is hard to find in the entire Yongzhou. If junior sister can't form the pill quickly, wouldn't it be a waste of natural resources."

After finishing speaking, the girl took out a pure black sachet from the storage bag.

"Senior brother is here today. He must have something important to discuss with grandpa. Junior sister, I won't disturb you."

"This is a sachet made by junior sister herself. It has the effect of concentrating the mind and energy. It is a return gift from junior sister to senior brother. I hope senior brother will not dislike it."

Putting the sachet into Zhou Yiqiao's hand, Li Yuyu didn't stay too long. After bowing to Li Wenshi, he left the backyard.

Li Wenshi's eyes followed Li Yuyu until Li Yuyu's figure completely disappeared, and then the gentle look on his face suddenly disappeared.

The old man glanced coldly at the sachet in Zhou Yiqiao's hand and spoke in a stern tone.

"Since this is a return gift from Yu Yu, you should keep it well."

"But I'm going to tell you the ugly story first, can you ask Yu Yu for help from this thing and get rid of my control!"

Although he had scolded Li Wenshi bloody in his heart, he still maintained a decent smile on the surface.

After fastening the sachet to his waist, Zhou Yiqiao bowed again.

"The disciples are self-aware, and the elders can rest assured."

Li Wenshi nodded, accepting Zhou Yiqiao's promise, put down the tea cup in his hand, and asked coldly.

"I asked you to accept Ma Yinghun's Demon Communication Department. After seven days, you should have gained something, right?"

"nature."

Zhou Yiqiao put away his smile and responded.

Immediately, he reported to Li Wenshi all the information he had collected these days.

This process lasted for half a stick of incense.

After half a stick of incense, the expression on Li Wenshi's face was obviously relieved, and he was obviously extremely satisfied with Zhou Yiqiao's homework.

"I wonder what the elder's next instructions will be..."

Although he already knew how greedy Li Wenshi was, Zhou Yiqiao still asked as usual.

After hearing Zhou Yiqiao's question, Li Wenshi drank the spiritual tea brewed by his granddaughter and looked at Zhou Yiqiao with a half-smile.

"It will be the beginning of the month in three days. It will be the time for the demon monks to receive their salaries. I want you to reduce the number allocated by Ma Yinghun by half. Can you do it?"

Even though he was mentally prepared for Li Wenshi's insatiable greed, he couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of his greed after hearing that the old guy directly wanted to usurp half of the demon clan's interests.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Yiqiao finally nodded.

"Disciple understands."
