At this point, Zhu Yugu proactively started negotiating: “You came to the Underground City mainly for business, right? Tell me how much territory you want, as long as it’s not too large, I can make the call. I can give you half of the Human Market’s business.”

Li Qi shook his head: “Half is not enough, I want it all.”

“All of it? Fine, I’ll give you the seal right now, and from now on, the Human Market is yours.”

Li Qi still shook his head: “Just the seal is not enough.”

“You want money too, right?” Zhu Yugu took out the key to the treasury, “The treasury is next door, it’s full of gold and Silver Yuan, take as much as you want, the whole treasury is yours now!”

Li Qi continued to shake his head: “The treasury is not enough either.”

“Then what else do you want?” In the building, Zhu Yugu also had a legitimate wife and twenty-two concubines. As long as Li Qi said the word, he was willing to give them all away.

“I have a friend, he wants you.” Li Banfeng waved his hand and Lü Qingfu suddenly appeared, embracing Zhu Yugu.

How did Lü Qingfu arrive so quickly?

Wasn’t he always under Li Qi’s control?

Wasn’t Li Qi right in front of him?

Who was really controlling Lü Qingfu? Was there someone else in the room?

Zhu Yugu didn’t have time to resist, he was too exhausted.

Lü Qingfu held Zhu Yugu and kissed him, feeding him the first mouthful of Golden Juice Jade Liquid.

Zhu Yugu struggled for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face.

The current time was extremely valuable; for a short period, Zhu Yugu would obey Lü Qingfu’s commands.

Lü Qingfu began speaking: “Tell me, how can the mark be removed?”

Zhu Yugu replied: “I don’t know.”

He wasn’t lying. After drinking the first mouthful of Golden Juice Jade Liquid, he couldn’t lie.

Lü Qingfu asked again: “Who is your employer?”

“I don’t know his name.”

“What does he look like?”

“I’ve never seen his appearance.”

“Which Taoist Sect is he from, and how high is his cultivation level?”

“I don’t know.”

Zhu Yugu, as the Leader of the Human Market, had some status under the boss, but surprisingly, he knew so little about him.

“Where is your employer?”

“He went to Three-Head Fork, currently there’s no Underground City there.”

“Is he not usually at Three-Head Fork?”

“No, he’s wandering around Puluo State. This time, he came back mainly because he’s short of money.”

“What does he need money for?”

“I, I, don’t know…”

Zhu Yugu’s thinking began to slow down, the time with the first mouthful of Golden Juice Jade Liquid was running out.

Lü Qingfu hurriedly assigned Zhu Yugu a crucial task: “Ah Gui, the rent needs to be adjusted.”

Zhu Yugu nodded: “I also think we’re collecting too little, I’ve already raised the price.”

Pa!

Lü Qingfu slapped Zhu Yugu: “It’s not that you’re collecting too little, I’m here to change the rules for you, listen to how they should be changed, and then I’ll give you something good to eat.”

Zhu Yugu readily agreed with a smile: “Alright.”

…

Lü Qingfu assigned Zhu Yugu the task of altering the rent and fed him another mouthful of Golden Juice Jade Liquid. Over the next month, Zhu Yugu would strictly execute this task, thanks to the effect of the second mouthful of Golden Juice Jade Liquid.

After completing the tasks, Li Banfeng waved his hand, and a shadow emerged from Lü Qingfu’s body.

Li Banfeng praised: “I must say, the new Technique you’ve learned is quite handy.”

The shadow remained silent.

“Does it feel disgusting?” Li Banfeng asked Ban Feng Yi.

Ban Feng Yi made a spitting gesture: “Why didn’t you do this yourself?”

Li Banfeng shook his head: “I really can’t stand the smell.”

“If you can’t stand it, then hurry up and leave!”

“No rush, some things haven’t been cleaned up properly yet.” Li Banfeng summoned a group of shadows.

Ban Feng Yi was very displeased: “Summoning one more shadow means one more mark, and now I already have a mark on me!”

This building was truly peculiar; anyone who entered would get marked.

“It’s fine, let’s clean this up first, then handle them together.”

Li Banfeng waved his hand and commanded the shadows: “Madman Skill, rivers of blood.”

Dozens of shadows flew out from Li Banfeng’s side.

“Sounds like some Technique, but it’s just us doing the heavy lifting, right?” Ban Feng Yi first killed Lü Qingfu, then followed Li Banfeng to the treasury.

After a quarter of an hour, only Zhu Yugu was left alive in the Qingyuan Building.

He personally wrote dozens of notices and, after tidying up, took the notices to find a copper gong in the warehouse, then went downstairs.

At the street corner, he posted the notice and banged the copper gong, shouting: “This month’s rent is completely free, and thereafter the rent will be halved. I, Zhu Yugu, was wrong to raise the price before, I apologize to everyone!”

These words were repeated by Zhu Yugu over twenty times.

The onlookers were astonished.

“Who is this?”

“Don’t you recognize him? This is the boss of the Human Market, Mr. Gui!”

“What’s up with him?”

“Who knows what’s up with him. He said he’d raise the rent just a few days ago, and today he says it’s halved and this month is free. He’s said so much, I don’t even know what he means anymore.”

“Let’s check the notice later, it seems clearly written.”

“Did I hear wrong just now, did Zhu Yugu actually admit he was wrong?”

“That Bird Person Zhu Yugu admitting he eats crap? I’d believe that, but him admitting he was wrong, I really don’t believe it.”

“Don’t say you don’t believe it, just smell him; it seems he really did eat crap.”

…

Zhu Yugu carried the copper gong and notice and reached another intersection.

Tan Jinxiao watched nearby, muttering: “This Li Qi really isn’t afraid of making enemies, he’s going to fight with the boss to the end, huh.”
