Chapter 255 - 169: The More Powerful My Husband, The Better My Life (Part 3)
Jiang Man said matter-of-factly, "An Unparalleled Celestial Pride. No need to be surprised."
Xiaopang was silent for a moment before saying, "That woman is despicable. I thought all beautiful people were supposed to be good."
"Never trust a pretty face," Jiang Man kindly reminded him.
Xiaopang could only lament. ’They even go after small businesses. That’s just too much.’
"Your knowledge of Spirit Medicine is lacking. You need to learn more." Jiang Man rummaged around for a moment and pulled out his copy of the Spirit Medicine Identification Record. "I’ll lend this to you for a few days. Make a copy."
Seeing this, Xiaopang accepted it without hesitation.
He carefully put it away.
Afterward, Chang Qiweng arrived.
He came in a hurry and left in a hurry. "Here’s my Spiritual Source. Can’t chat, I have to get to work."
Watching him leave, all travel-worn, Jiang Man felt a wave of emotion.
’Old Chang is fated for a life of hard work.’
Before he left, however, he mentioned that he might need a large sum of Spiritual Source in March.
Upon asking, Jiang Man learned that his sister was already in the rear courtyard of the Yunqian Bureau.
If she secured a spot in December, she would need a vast amount of Spiritual Source.
This time, he had also asked Song Qing to send some Spiritual Source back home, hoping his sister would get a chance to earn a spot.
Learning all this, Jiang Man felt quite moved.
’So Old Chang has a sister, and it seems she has a chance to join the Sect.’
"Actually, Old Chang’s sister has a real shot. Because Old Chang is in the Sect, and he has Brother Jiang backing him up."
"My dad gave up a lot of benefits to take her on. The resource supply is sufficient, and she’s working hard enough."
"Her chances of getting a spot are a bit higher than Old Chang’s were," Xiaopang said.
Jiang Man nodded. No wonder Old Chang worked himself to the bone.
He very frequently sent money home; he had always been like that.
The money he’d borrowed was sent right back home.
Afterward, Jiang Man did some calculations.
He owed Song Qing 24,000, Fang Yong 12,000, Chang Qiweng 18,000, and Xiaopang 15,000.
The amount from his master was a sponsorship, so he didn’t have to pay it back.
His total debt was 69,000.
When Jiang Man finished calculating, he was stunned.
’How did I end up owing more and more?’
Right now, he had 19,000 left.
At this rate, just paying back his debts would be a monumental task.
But that was a problem for later. For now, he needed to improve his power fusion.
He only had one month left.
19,000 Spiritual Source, plus the 6,000 he would get next month.
25,000 should be enough.
After that, Jiang Man said goodbye to Xiaopang.
Luo Xuan returned not long after, and she brought Cheng Yu with her.
"Young Master Gao, we meet again. Luo Xuan has been worried sick, you know?" Cheng Yu asked with a smile.
"I know. That’s why I’ve already figured out a solution," Xiaopang said, full of confidence.
Hearing this, Cheng Yu was taken aback. "Young Master Gao has a solution?"
Then, Xiaopang said with a perfectly straight face, "The Three Yang Flower has three-colored petals and seven leaves. A small portion of them have growth defects, sprouting eight leaves. These are difficult to keep alive and will dehydrate and die within thirty days."
"Come over and feel it. We were scammed."
Luo Xuan felt it and, sure enough, discovered the trick.
Cheng Yu was shocked. "Young Master Gao, who did you consult?"
"Couldn’t I have discovered it myself?" Xiaopang asked.
"How did you discover it yourself, Young Master Gao?" Luo Xuan asked curiously.
Xiaopang scratched his head, embarrassed. "Look at this."
As he spoke, he took out the Spirit Medicine Identification Record.
Luo Xuan looked astonished. She immediately tried to cover the book and said, "The Identification Record? I heard only Pill Masters have these, and they never lend them out! If you’re found with one, you’ll be punished by a Pill Master!"
Xiaopang hadn’t realized this either. He quickly said, "Brother Jiang gave it to me. He told me to make a copy."
Cheng Yu couldn’t help but marvel. ’Is that what you call a true brother?’
’He just lent it out so casually.’
’Didn’t he even give a few warnings?’
However, she never felt she had made the wrong choice. Looking back over the past few years, most of the people Jiang Man was close with were men.
He was truly responsible toward his dao companion.
He had absolutely no intention of getting close to any other women.
If any woman showed interest, he would keep a respectful distance.
Besides, she felt that choosing Fang Yong was the most correct choice.
’Although Fang Yong might not think I’m worthy of him... at least I wouldn’t be used and casually discarded.’
She was very content with her current life.
That was why she was genuinely moved; Jiang Man was so good to Xiaopang and the others.
Only after dealing with people from the outside could one truly understand just how good Jiang Man was to them.
