Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1643 7 Heart Tablets 24

Everyone met at Luo Ren's home in Lixi. Luo Pinting looked visibly better. When Lao Zheng heard that everyone was interested in opening a restaurant together, he volunteered to recommend himself and Luo Pinting. "You guys have things to do soon. While you're away, Pinting and I have something serious to do. It's good for both our bodies and minds!"

Everyone agreed, especially Luo Ren, who offered to advance the payment. "The pearls we brought back can indeed be sold for a lot of money, but if we sell them in a hurry, we'll have to take a discount. So I suggest that I advance the entire payment first, and then everyone can pay me according to their share once they get paid."

Yan Hongsha was the first to agree: "I was going to say that too, but we're the Phoenix Squad, so it doesn't matter whether you give it or I do."

"My family has already started, and I suggest everyone make pearls into jewelry and sell them."

"But, let me be frank. I'm going to charge for the craftsmanship of this jewelry, which I'm going to keep for myself. Forget about the PR and publicity. After all, my family can also expand its reputation with this project."

Everyone couldn't help laughing, especially Old Zheng, who gave Yan Hongsha a thumbs up and praised her, "What a great girl, so open-minded!"

Listen to what Yan Hongsha said. She only charges the production fee for the jewelry that everyone keeps for themselves, and nothing else. Isn't this like giving away services for free?

But just as she said, this batch of pearls are out of print and of the highest quality. Every time one is used, one less pearl is left. Even if there are thousands of pearls on the entire market, it is still a drop in the bucket. It is better to stockpile them and store them slowly. Making a lot of money is secondary. The most important thing is to expand the reputation of their Yan family and strengthen their Yan family's momentum!

Jiang Xinxin reminded Yan Hongsha, "If you only sell this batch of pearls as jewelry, your sales channels are still a bit limited. Since ancient times, there have been many prescriptions using pearls as medicine. Why don't you take this opportunity to explore more? It can also be regarded as opening up a new business for the Yan family."

Cao Pangpang thinks it's inappropriate to use such pearls as medicine. "Just because they're good quality isn't going to do much good. I've heard that Traditional Chinese Medicine is becoming less and less effective these days, and I think it's probably due to the scarcity of the medicinal properties of the herbs."

Yan Hongsha also realized what was going on. However, she was quite intelligent after all. Combining this with Jiang Xinxin's background in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, she quickly came up with a plan: "Sister Jiang's point is that this batch of pearls can fetch an unprecedentedly high price just for jewelry. So, if they're going to be used in medicine, they'll naturally have to target higher-net-worth clients."

"Rich people are never afraid of spending money. As long as the money they spend can be seen by others, can make others envy them, and preferably scramble to find out the inside story and praise them."

"So this thing will definitely succeed!"

The Yan family does business in traditional industries and follows old rules, so all they hold are real estate. When Yan Jiuxiao grew up, he rebelliously gave up the jewelry industry that made the Yan family rich and chose the construction industry, and expanded into other service industries.

Originally, Yan Jiuxiao was doing well and was a well-known child of other families in the circle of rich second-generations. However, no one expected that he would suddenly develop bad habits one day. Not only did he sell all the properties he had worked hard to build, he also secretly took over all the things in the Yan family.

Although the Yan family is now a starving camel that is bigger than a horse, its foundation has actually been damaged. If it were not for this batch of pearls and the treasure well hanging in the front, it would probably be torn into pieces by others immediately.

After the party, Lao Zheng took Luo Pinting to look for a suitable place, while Yiwansan and Cao Yanhua went out to pick up someone, a sloppy-looking charlatan. The other party got the news from Wan Fenghuo and knew that they were looking for Xinjian, so he contacted Yiwansan and came over.

The charlatan was really capable. He could see the unique golden light of merit on Jiang Xinxin at a glance. He wanted to bow down and worship her, and completely believed what was written in the ancestor's notes.

Jiang Xinxin raised her hand to help the man up, sighing regretfully, "The spiritual energy in this world has been fading since then. You have the aptitude and talent, but you can't embark on the path to immortality like your predecessors."

The charlatan, however, was very open-minded. "I have read those classics and can understand them, but I don't know why I have never been able to gain any enlightenment. Now that I have your guidance, I can let go of my obsession and comfort my ancestors."

There were more than one disciple in their sect, but he was the only one still alive. It was because he was open-minded. The other brothers were depressed all their lives and died early because they could not get in.

The charlatan hadn't forgotten his purpose. He pulled out a series of documents from his bag and shared them with everyone. "This is the information I found about the Heart Slab in the Lengquan area. Since there's no clear record in official or unofficial history, I also saw this on a hidden mural. Following the cases in Luoma Lake, the pastoral area, and Xiaoshang River, I collected similar records in Lengquan and the surrounding areas, and that's how I got more information."

Thirteen Wan was unconcerned. "Hey, we've gotten more information. For example, there are actually seven fragments of the Heart Tablet. Also, besides Miss Jiang, the five of us should be closely related to the Heart Tablet fragments. As of now, all our relatives and friends have been harmed by the Heart Tablet fragments."

No matter how much it is, I kept the 13,000 in mind and didn’t say anything.

The charlatan could see that Yiwansan was hiding something, and the others were avoiding talking about it, but he didn't care. He just showed everyone the information he had found. "Here is a record of the origin of the Heart Tablet, why it was scattered everywhere, why it came to you five, and why you five are needed to collect it."

"This Heart Tablet is a sinister force that arrived in ancient times along with meteorite iron from outer space. It caused a period of disaster. Later, a great man used Phoenix clasps crafted from the meteorite iron to seal the Heart Tablets one by one within wooden slips. Now that the Heart Tablets have resurfaced, it must be because the power of the previous seal has been broken, so they need to be sealed again."

"I think the six of you might be the descendants of that great sage from ancient times and his five disciples."

Others didn't quite believe it, but they also felt that this statement made sense.

Jiang Xinxin nodded directly in agreement with the charlatan's words, confirming that he was not someone with ill intentions or someone with any intentions towards the Heart Tablet. "You are right, but I have no connection with that great master or his disciples. However, I do have the ability to seal the Heart Tablet. Everything that happened before was just a coincidence."

The charlatan knew how powerful Jiang Xinxin was, and suddenly felt that his trip seemed to be of no use to everyone. He could only lick his face and want to see what Xinjian looked like. He couldn't really make a trip in vain, right?

It just so happened that Yan Hongsha was also very curious about the heart tablets, so Jiang Xinxin released the three heart tablets in her hand.

At this time, the heart tablets had returned to their original appearance. They no longer looked like letter tablets. They were now translucent bands of light. Perhaps because they were sealed by Jiang Xinxin, they only flickered like fireflies and seemed to have lost the ability to escape.
