The main thing is to make money, and the rest is just a matter of convenience.

Qiu Bao felt that the spiritual power in the spiritual spring was being continuously absorbed by Hua Yan and formed a vortex in her dantian.

Qiu Bao looked at Hua Yan in shock. This was a scene he had never seen before.

The beam of light that rushed towards the sky lasted for a long time before gradually dissipating.

At this time, Hua Yan was also experiencing unprecedented pain, because the meridians in her body were opened one by one and finally converged at her dantian.

Seeing Hua Yan's painful expression, Qiu Bao became a little worried and wanted to go forward to check, but he was still five meters away from Hua Yan and could not get close to her.

Xiaoguai and Fang Hua also felt uneasy. They nervously held Qiubao's hands, with worry in their eyes.

Just like that, no one knew how much time had passed. The three of them seemed to be under a spell, and only the changes in Hua Yan's expression told everyone that time was passing.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the space. Qiu Bao was awakened and flashed out of the space.

Liu Quan came to call Hua Yan to eat, Qiu Bao said in Hua Yan's voice:

"Uncle Quan, please bring the food over and don't disturb me."

Liu Quan outside the door responded and left immediately.

There is no other way. Hua Yan is now at a critical moment and cannot be disturbed. Qiu Bao can only take this approach.

Worried about Hua Yan in the space, Qiu Bao did not delay and flashed into the space again. Although he could not get close to her, he would guard her by her side. If Hua Yan was really in danger, he would protect her at the risk of his life.

Just like that, there was no sound in the space except for the chirping of birds and the buzzing of insects. What was visible to the naked eye was Hua Yan absorbing spiritual energy. Fortunately, the spiritual energy in the spiritual spring had a regenerative function, otherwise it would have been exhausted by Hua Yan's absorption this time.

It felt like a lifetime before Qiu Bao saw Hua Yan's expression change from painful to expressionless.

Hua Yan exhaled gently, slowly opened her eyes and looked around.

"Jiu'er, are you okay?"

Qiu Bao asked weakly, with tears in his voice.

"Qiubao, what's wrong with you?"

Hua Yan's cold voice came, she was very curious why Qiu Bao felt so aggrieved.

Qiu Bao jumped into the Lingquan pool regardless of everything, hugged Hua Yan, and looked like he was about to cry and scream.

Hua Yan was a little confused. She patted the aggrieved Qiu Bao, not knowing how to comfort him.

Qiu Bao cried for a long time before he stopped. He was too scared, afraid that Hua Yan might get into trouble.

He wanted to protect Hua Yan, but he couldn't get close to her. It was the first time he felt so powerless.

"Jiu'er, are you okay? I was scared to death."

"It's okay, Qiubao, I didn't expect Dahei to be such a treasure. He can absorb spiritual energy on his own and help me open the meridians throughout my body."

Hua Yan was excited and wanted to share the good news with Qiu Bao, but the voice she uttered was cold.

Qiu Bao nodded and was happy too. As long as Hua Yan was okay, he didn't listen to anything else.

"Qiu Bao, I feel like my skills have improved again. This time the progress is more than the sum of all the previous ones."

Hua Yan put her arm around Qiu Bao’s shoulders, and the two of them walked out of the spiritual spring.

"Jiu'er, it seems that the spiritual spring has been of great help to you. You should come here to soak in the water when you have time in the future."

When Qiu Bao heard that Hua Yan was so lucky, he felt that it was all thanks to Lingquan.

"The Lingquan played a significant role, but Dahei played an even greater role. Qiubao, we seem to have underestimated Dahei. It has more abilities than just what we have seen. There are also many more that we have not discovered."

Hua Yan gently stroked her lower abdomen with her right hand, carefully feeling the presence of Dahei.

"Really, is Dahei a treasure?"

Only then did Qiubao start to pay attention to Dahei.

Hua Yan nodded, with a look of affirmation on her face.

"Could Dahei be a treasure left behind by a hermit?"

Qiubao suddenly became interested in Dahei.

"It's possible."

Hua Yan nodded seriously.

The two were discussing Dahei, while Xiaoguai and Fang Hua followed silently behind them.

-

"Uncle Quan, Jiuer has been in seclusion for four days. Will there be any problems?"

Taiji's voice was filled with worry.

"It's okay. Every time I bring her food, she tells me not to let anyone disturb her."

Liu Quan didn't seem worried at all, because Hua Yan had spent a lot of time in seclusion practicing, sometimes even longer than this.

In fact, Taiji was so worried about Hua Yan because he had never heard Hua Yan speak in person. When Hua Yan was in seclusion for a month, he could often hear Hua Yan's voice, so he was not so worried.

Now Liu Quan is protecting Hua Yan and no one is allowed to approach Hua Yan's room.

With a creaky sound, Hua Yan's door opened, and a cold and majestic girl appeared in front of Taiji.

"Yan'er!"

Taiji blurted out his nickname for Hua Yan.

"Brother Taiji!"

Hua Yan walked over and held Taiji's hand.

"Jiu'er, you are finally out of confinement. If you don't come out, I won't be able to stop these people."

Liu Quan said this and glanced at Taiji.

"Uncle Quan, how many days have I been in seclusion?"

"It's been four days. The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Your dad is going to blow up his phone."

Liu Quan looked angry.

Hua Yan was stunned for a moment and wanted to turn around to check with Qiu Bao. But when she looked back, she saw nothing but Qiu Bao.

"Haha! Get ready today and go back to Shengjing tomorrow."

Hua Yan's cool temperament disappeared as soon as she met Taiji.

Taiji's nervous mood was completely eaten away by the girl's cute appearance.

After touching the top of Hua Yan's head, Taiji said lovingly:

"Okay! We'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Liu Quan was extremely confused by the interaction between the two. He looked at Hua Yan, then at Taiji, but in the end he said nothing.

Watching Liu Quan walk away with a heavy look on his face, Hua Yan was a little confused.

"Brother Taiji, this is the pill I made for you these two days. It can strengthen your body."

What Hua Yan didn’t say was that it could also improve your skills.

"Girl, you hid in the room to do this."

Taiji felt sweet and anxious because he had no ability at the moment, so Hua Yan was anxious to make pills for him to make up for his deficiency.

Hua Yan just smiled foolishly and didn't explain anything.

"Yan'er, the cooperation with the store has been a complete success. They invested in real estate, and we invested in technology and physical objects.

They are only responsible for dividends, do not participate in management, and do not interfere with operations, but they will send a financial staff member to our Jinlou.

In the end, we both decided that the store would own 25 percent of the shares and we would own 75 percent of the shares.”

Taiji gave the contract to Huayan.

Hua Yan saw that the contract was very detailed and mentioned Jinlou's future business projects and directions.

For example, the first floor sells gold and silver jewelry, the second floor sells daily necessities, the third floor sells clothing, the fourth floor sells home appliances, and the fifth floor sells restaurants.

The contract also mentioned that elevators and escalators would be installed to make it easier for customers to go up and down, and that the original store must consent to the expenses incurred in the future to better operate the store's business.

The contract also mentioned that in the future the store would be renamed "Hengjiu Shopping Mall", and this name would belong to Jinlou. If the original store wanted to withdraw from Hengjiu Shopping Mall, the shares could only be transferred to Jinlou at market value and could not be transferred to anyone else.

A lot of things were also mentioned, all of which were drawn up by Taiji based on the cooperation agreement in the previous life, which was to avoid Jinlou's losses as much as possible and make the cooperation more standardized.

When the leaders of the original store saw such a detailed contract, they looked at Taiji with wide eyes. They did not expect that a simple cooperation would have so much content.

Even Zhang Tao was surprised. No wonder Hua Yan assigned Taiji to him. It turned out that he was a hidden talent.

The store’s leaders only wanted to make money with Jinlou and had no idea that they would go their separate ways in the future, so they signed and stamped the agreement without any hesitation.

【See you tomorrow! 】
