Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Expanding Sustainable Revenue
Qian Qi was feeling puzzled.
Although she indeed farted quite a bit in front of Chen Miaomiao, and often did shameless, disgraceful things, her original intention was always to be an elegant, saintly, gentle lady and scholar.
So, farting poison gas...
That’s just too disgraceful! It really doesn’t match her style!
She wants strength! Wants to be strong! Wants to be the kind of strong that can squash ten people with just one sit!
"I absolutely, will not go through this instance a second time!" Qian Qi stood by the window, exhaling a puff of virtual smoke, looking very disheartened.
[Even if this colorless and tasteless poison fart comes from your mouth, and is controllable?]
Qian Qi: ???
Qian Qi snapped back to reality and got furious, "Are you insulting my mouth as a fart hose?"
[If you insist on interpreting it this way, there’s nothing I can do~＾＿＾]
Qian Qi "clang!" opened the window and threw the system out.
"Right, wasn’t I poisoned and fainted at that time? Why am I okay now?"
[Because you’ve acquired the poison attribute, the poison has merged with you, basically making you immune to E+ level Sakyamuni Demon Vine’s poison gas. If you kill other toxic Magic Plants and Demon Beast Bosses later, you might fuse more potent poison and immunity.]
"I see~" Qian Qi lay back on her bed, rolled around happily a few times, then suddenly remembered something and sprang up like a flip.
"Almost forgot, my jackpot!"
She quickly opened Li Haisheng’s Light Brain, sent her "memorial photo" to Chen Tong, pondered Li Haisheng’s tone, and messaged:
[Sea King Great Sage]: Task completed, transfer the money over!
Chen Tong quickly replied.
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]:!!!
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: So soon?
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: Did you figure out her purpose for entering the instance?
[Sea King Great Sage]: Figured it out. She found a new species of Magic Beast called the Three-headed Demon Electric Lion here. The Thunderbolt Horn on their heads can be used to make new magic potion recipes, and she said each horn is worth at least three million on the market.
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: !!!
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: What about the new recipe! Did you get it!
[Sea King Great Sage]: Found it in the Light Brain, want it?
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: Of course! Send it to me immediately! And bring back all those Thunderbolt Horns!
[Sea King Great Sage]: I can give them to you, but the price...
Qian Qi stroked her chin, smiling slyly.
System looked on speechless: [You’re planning to scam Chen Tong’s money after scamming Li Haisheng now? Planning on bankrupting his family?]
"How can that be?" Qian Qi innocently rubbed her hands, "His family’s business is doing well. To continuously earn money, Chen Tong has to keep offering tributes to me!"
System: (￣□￣;)...
Seen people killing chickens for eggs, but never seen like you raising pigs to produce and robbing sustainably humanely!
While they were chatting, Chen Tong messaged again.
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: I quoted you forty million before, including that information! You’re still asking for money?
"Tsk, our good son, suddenly so stingy?" Qian Qi knocked on the Light Brain and continued to reply.
[Sea King Great Sage]: Give it or not, don’t give, I’ll sell to someone else. I have quite a few Thunderbolt Horns in hand. These things combined are worth more than your forty million.
Over there, Chen Tong gritted his teeth seeing the message: [How much exactly do you want?!]
Qian Qi chuckled: [Thirty million, plus Qian Qi’s life, a total of sixty million. Want to buy Thunderbolt Horns, pay extra.]
Chen Tong was almost dumbfounded seeing the message. He really didn’t want to pay extra, but considering the recipe’s value is much more, he could only transfer Chen Family’s liquid cash to "Li Haisheng" with a gloomy face.
Of course, he cautiously only transferred half, deciding to give "Li Haisheng" the other half after confirming the recipe was genuine.
"It’s okay, this can be earned back later." Chen Tong consoled himself, "By the time Mom and Dad return from business trips, my Hemostatic Medicine will almost be ready. I can definitely make up for this money then."
Meanwhile, Qian Qi received 45 million and wasn’t bothered by the less amount. She immediately transferred all the money from Li Haisheng’s account to her black account, as for Li Haisheng’s account password...
Heh heh, thanks to this chaotic era and chaotic technology, she managed to change Li Haisheng’s password with little effort.
After sending the "recipe" over, Chen Tong asked her how many Thunderbolt Horns she had.
Qian Qi glanced at the backpack, 6+7, a total of 13 horns, as for the extra 7...
Qian Qi smiled maliciously, her little face looked very wicked.
[Sea King Great Sage]: I have 13 here, want them?
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: No.
Chen Tong isn’t stupid. He already received news that Chuyun Mountain instance was conquered, and before people figure out the value of Thunderbolt Horns, he could hire someone to kill Three-headed Demon Lions, far cheaper than buying directly from "Li Haisheng."
[Sea King Great Sage]: You wouldn’t be thinking of getting them yourself, would you? Heh, if you find them, consider I lose.
[Chen Tong not sorrowful]: What do you mean?
Qian Qi was about to deceive Chen Tong when she suddenly realized something and her face changed dramatically.
"Damn."
She quickly opened her Light Brain and logged into the official instance forum. Upon seeing the announcement that Chuyun Mountain instance had been conquered, she smashed her fist on the bed.
"Damn it, I should’ve been more careful."
[What’s wrong?] System noticed Qian Qi’s bad mood.
"Hope no one enters the instance." Qian Qi quickly registered an account, frowning as if thinking about something.
Just when the system thought she was worried others would enter the instance and steal her resources, it saw Qian Qi register a black account and post on the official instance forum.
[--Ex-wife ran off with money: Old buddies, please notice to buy parachutes before entering Chuyun Mountain instance!]
She posted three times in succession until someone noticed the post from the flood of threads.
[--Huh? Why does OP say to bring a parachute? Is there a big cliff inside, could play skydiving?]
[--Upstairs is poisoned, who the fudge goes to an instance for skydiving sport?]
[--Parachute... parachute, holy crap, wait! Isn’t it what I’m thinking?!]
[--Could it be... the reason the instance is one-way is because the entry and exit point is... a high altitude?!]
[--Shiveringly terrifying.]
[--Turns out those people, died from falling...]
[--If it’s true, gotta thank the lifesaver OP, else we’d really die upon entering...]
Seeing someone acknowledge the peculiar nature of Chuyun Mountain instance, Qian Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She closed the Light Brain preparing to continue tricking Chen Tong when her peripheral vision caught the system "staring" at her.
"What’s up?" Qian Qi said seriously, her face void of expression.
[Well... just felt, you’re quite kind.]
"Of course, I’m super meek, gentle, pure, kind-hearted, amiable and benevolent, alright?" Qian Qi couldn’t help but proudly put her hands on her hips.
System:[...]
The system circled around her a couple of times, unclear if scrutinizing the room or Qian Qi, after a bit, it suddenly spoke.
[I killed Li Haisheng.]
