Chapter 843 I"ll Share Half Of The Benefits With You (2)
If Yao Buqi had agreed without thinking about anything, it meant that he was not suitable as the ruler of demonic beasts.
If he wanted to become the ruler of demonic beasts, he had to be cautious.
"They"re right there. Go talk to them. I"ll see how they"re doing. I might be able to prepare something for you." Zhou Shu looked up at the top of the mountain.
After such a long time, Ji Lutian should have finished talking to the leaders of the grotto-heavens.
At this moment, a few streams of light flew into the sky. They were Zhang Jiping, Tang Qianluo, and the others.
Zhou Shu walked to the top of the mountain and found that Zheng Chengan hadn"t left yet.
Seeing Zhou Shu walking up the mountain, his eyes lit up. "I knew it! You"re definitely not dead!"
Zheng Chengan"s figure flashed, and he appeared beside Zhou Shu. He reached out and grabbed Zhou Shu"s shoulder.
"What are you talking about? Who are you? Do I know you?" Zhou Shu said speechlessly. This shouldn"t be the case. My divine ability Myriad Transformations is clearly flawless. Why can everyone recognize me?
Is it because my temperament is too unique?
"Keep pretending!" Zheng Chengan said. "Do you want me to tell that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Tang Qianluo that the person who robbed his storehouse is here and that the one who died is his brother?"
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. He was already certain that Zheng Chengan had recognized him.
He looked at Ji Lutian.

Ji Lutian spread his hands innocently. "Don"t look at me. I didn"t say anything. He discovered it himself."
"Hehe, I have sharp eyes. You won"t be able to deceive me. After all, we"re brothers who made a fortune together!" Zheng Chengan said proudly.
He patted Zhou Shu"s shoulder. "Don"t worry. I"ve already dealt with the corpse. No one will notice anything unusual."
Zhou Shu shook his head speechlessly. "Let me ask you. Who is Zheng Yongtai to you?"
"My eldest nephew, do you know him?" Zheng Chengan asked curiously. "Did that kid offend you?"
Zheng Chengan immediately raised his guard. He wasn"t afraid of what Zhou Shu would do to Zheng Yongtai. He was afraid that Zhou Shu would run to the Sima Grotto-Heaven and use the same trick as he had in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
If Zhou Shu emptied the Sima Grotto-Heaven"s storehouse, he would die.
"If he offended you…
"I"ll break his legs!"
Zheng Chengan said this without hesitation.
In the distance, Zheng Yongtai, who had received the order to evacuate the citizens of Great Xia to the Sima Grotto-Heaven, suddenly sneezed a few times. He rubbed his nose and shook his head in confusion. Why do I feel a little cold?
This shouldn"t be the case. My cultivation is so high. Something must be wrong outside the grotto-heaven. I"d better hurry back.
Zheng Yongtai said, "Everyone, speed up. Let"s go back to the Sima Grotto-Heaven as soon as possible. Let me tell you, the Sima Grotto-Heaven is a much better place. When we get there, you"ll have a good life."
…
On the Two Region Mountain, Zhou Shu shook his head at Zheng Chengan. "He didn"t offend me. I was just asking. Speaking of which, I forged his Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword."
"Is that so? Then we"re fated." Zheng Chengan heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. "Zhou Shu, I cooperated with Old Ji to get Tang Qianluo, Zhang Jiping, and the others to agree to move the people of Great Xia to the Sima Grotto-Heaven. I"m very kind, right?"
"Yes." Zhou Shu gave him a thumbs-up, and his gaze landed on Ji Lutian.
Ji Lutian smiled. "Fortunately, we didn"t disappoint you. They agreed to our request. The people of Great Xia will migrate to the Sima Grotto-Heaven."
He continued, "They also agreed to let the Sima Grotto-Heaven forge the connate bloodline divine weapons. However, they also made a condition. After the connate bloodline divine weapons are forged, each grotto-heaven has to recieve some.
"They"re still selfish."
Ji Lutian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He knew very well why the various grotto-heavens wanted connate divine weapons.
Logically speaking, as long as people used the connate bloodline divine weapons, it didn"t matter who used them. But since the grotto-heavens wanted some, they definitely wanted to take the opportunity to control some demonic beasts.
The human race was indeed too scheming.
There was still a long way to go before humans and demonic beasts could coexist peacefully.
Ji Lutian was still struggling in his heart. He had never really started to implement his idea of making there be no Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world.
"It"s fine to give them some, but not for free. As long as they pay, sell some to them," Zhou Shu said casually. "Charge them a high price. Anyway, they have plenty of money!"
In the past, Zhou Shu didn"t care about using connate divine weapons to earn money. But these b.a.s.t.a.r.d grotto-heavens actually wanted to give him to the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm. If he was polite to them, it wouldn"t be his style.
He decided to increase the price of connate bloodline divine weapons by ten times to sell to these grotto-heavens!
"Heh, Zhou Shu, you"ve given our Sima Grotto-Heaven a lot of business. How should I thank you?" Zheng Chengan chuckled.
"You"re mistaken," Zhou Shu said. "I just want to borrow the Sima Grotto-Heaven"s name. You"re not thinking of s.n.a.t.c.hing my secret forging formula, are you?"
"What do you mean? Are you kicking me to the curb after I"ve outlived my usefulness?" Zheng Chengan"s eyes widened.
"How am I kicking you to the curb?" Zhou Shu shook his head. "I"ve never promised you anything. Isn"t it your idea to move the citizens of the Ten Nations into the grotto-heavens? Even if the people of Great Xia don"t go to the Sima Grotto-heaven, they can still go to other grotto-heavens."
"If they go to other grotto-heavens, they can only work like slaves!" Zheng Chengan said indignantly. "On account of the big business you sent to our Sima Grotto-Heaven, I"ve given Great Xia a large area in the Sima Grotto-Heaven. If you say that now, I"ll have to go back on my word."
Zhou Shu smiled. He wasn"t in a hurry and said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry? I haven"t finished speaking.
"Coincidentally, I want to discuss a business deal with your Sima Grotto-Heaven. Your Sima Grotto-Heaven has forgers. I can teach them the forging method of connate bloodline divine weapons, but I have a condition. You have to give me half of the profits of the connate bloodline divine weapons you sell!
"Let me give you an example. If the cost of making a connate bloodline divine weapon is a hundred taels of gold, then the price of selling it to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven is two thousand taels of gold. The profit of one thousand, nine hundred taels of gold has to be split between us.
"Of course, they might not be sold for gold. I"m just giving an example."
Zheng Chengan opened his mouth. This example was so simple that he naturally understood it. Selling them to the Xuling Grotto-Heaven for 20 times the cost? He liked this idea very much.
But he didn"t understand why Zhou Shu would get half of the profits.
"I have no problem with you wanting a share of the profits, but isn"t half too much?" Zheng Chengan said.
"It"s not too much." Zhou Shu shook his head. "I"ve even taught you how to make a livelihood. I"m already very kind by only taking half the profits. Connate bloodline divine weapons are my unique secret technique. No one else in the world knows how to make them. This is a secret technique that your Sima Grotto-Heaven can pa.s.s down. All things considered, I"m the one at a disadvantage. If I don"t teach you the secret technique, the benefits of forging connate bloodline divine weapons will all be mine!"
Zheng Chengan frowned. What Zhou Shu said seemed to make sense. If he didn"t share his secret technique, the benefits would all be his.
But why did he feel that something was wrong?
Ji Lutian smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn"t explain it to Zheng Chengan. In any case, Zheng Chengan wouldn"t suffer any losses in this matter.
"If you don"t want to do it, there are plenty of people in the world who do. Your Sima Grotto-Heaven will only contribute a little, and you will obtain a secret technique and half of the benefits for nothing. Where can you find such a good deal?
"If you don"t want to, I can find someone else."
