Ally of the Flying Cloud Society!
“I’ve already used up two bottles of Body Strengthening Pills. I need more!”
After that, Su Jie felt a slight headache. Although he has improved greatly, he had already used up all the Body Strengthening Pills he had bought.
Body Strengthening Pills were expensive. On average, one pill costed five taels of silver and they were not sold alone. If Su Jie wanted to cultivate the Ape Demon King Kong Fist to the peak of the third level, or even beyond it, he would undoubtedly need a large number of Body Strengthening Pills. That ant a lot of money!
Although Su Wu worked in the Divine Constable Bureau and earned a lot of money, he was far from being able to fork out so much money for Su Jie. Moreover, Su Wu himself also practiced martial arts and his daily expenses were also very high. He couldn’t support Su Jie’s level of cultivation.
“Oh right… The person I t previously, Yan Bin, claims to be a rchant from Heiye City. He should be very rich. Previously, he asked to look for him if I needed anything. I might as well visit him.”
Su Jie quickly thought of soone.
Yan Bin, whom he had the fortune of eting a month ago.
Yan Bin had martial arts skills and was ruthless. However, he was refined in his speech and he had the aura of a martial artist. He wanted to befriend Su Jie and left behind his address for him.
Su Jie was currently short of money for cultivation so he decided to visit Yan Bin and see if there was a way to earn money to support his martial arts cultivation!
Money was indeed important to Su Jie. Not only could it support his cultivation but if he had enough money he could even be extravagant enough to let the ape avatar take Body Strengthening Pills to cultivate. It would allow the ape demon avatar to grow even faster!
He did as he thought. The next morning, Su Jie packed up and left for Heiye City alone.
If he rode a horse, it would take him about three to four days to reach Heiye City from Qingshui Town. On the other hand, Su Jie could run faster and last longer than a horse. Taking into account ti for resting, it would take at most a day to reach Heiye City!
A day later, Su Jie arrived at the prosperous Heiye City again.
“Heiye City, the Yan Residence on Chang Sheng Street.”
Su Jie recalled the address given by Yan Bin and quickly found the Yan family’s residence.
Two imposing stone lions stood at the entrance of the Yan family’s residence. They were several tis larger than the Su family’s residence’s stone lions in Qingshui Town. They looked wealthy.
“Knock, knock!”
Su Jie ca to the door of the Yan residence and knocked on the door ring.
“Zhi!”
Not long after, the door of the Yan residence opened slightly. An old man who looked like a butler looked at Su Jie warily.
“Old man, I’m here to see Yan Bin. I t him a month ago. Please inform him.”
Su Jie said politely to the old man.
“One mont, please.”
When the old man heard this, his expression softened slightly. He said that to Su Jie before going to inform Yan Bin.
“Please co in. His lordship asked to invite you to see him.”
Not long after, the door opened again. This ti, the old man invited Su Jie into the Yan Residence.
Under the old man’s lead, Su Jie entered the Yan residence and arrived at a luxurious living room.
In the living room, a surprised voice proclaid: “Little brother, I didn’t expect you to visit ! Please sit down!”
The extrely surprised person was naturally Yan Bin. Compared to his low-key scholar-like attire, Yan Bin was dressed in embroidered clothes within his residence and looked rather regal. At that mont, his face was filled with joy as he repeatedly invited Su Jie to sit down.
Back then, when Su Jie faced nearly ten ard bandits, the terrifying strength he displayed left a deep impression on Yan Bin. Such a young hero would have a bright future ahead of him, so he wanted to befriend him.
Now that Su Jie has taken the initiative to visit him, Yan Bin was undoubtedly overjoyed.
After pouring a cup of tea for Su Jie, the butler bowed slightly and left the living room.
After Su Jie sat down, he looked at Yan Bin and admitted to him: “Master Yan, I actually have sothing to ask of you this ti. I’m very short of money recently… I want to ask if you have any way to earn money.”
Faced with Su Jie’s straightforwardness, Yan Bin countered: “I haven’t even asked for your na yet.”
“My surna is Tang. My given na is simply Jie.”
Su Jie gave a fake na without batting an eyelid.
From the ti he faced the group of bandits, Su Jie learned that Yan Bin was extrely patient. Considering how he suddenly attacked at a critical mont when the bandits were in danger, Su Jie felt that Yan Bin was definitely not a kind person. Therefore, he felt that it was better to be careful when dealing with him.
“Tang Jie? The Jie that ans becoming soone else’s calamity? What a domineering na!”
Yan Bin praised with admiration.
Su Jie was a little speechless. Clearly, Yan Bin had misunderstood. He said the Jie which ant outstanding instead of the Jie that ant calamity but it was a fake na anyway so he went along with it
Yan Bin then went straight to the point. “Brother Tang, you said that you want to make money… You an a lot of money, right?”
With Su Jie’s temperant, it was obvious that he was not from a poor family. When he said that he lacked money, it was surely not a matter of a few taels or dozens of taels of silver.
“That’s right. I do need a lot of money. I get the more the better.” Su Jie nodded. With enough money, he could buy more cultivation resources. Both he and the ape avatar could both advance to the next level!
Yan Bin pondered for a mont before finally looking up at Su Jie. “I have an errand here. You can get 200 taels of silver every month. Brother Tang, are you interested in knowing more about it?”
“200 taels of silver a month?”
Su Jie’s heart skipped a beat.
200 taels of silver a month was undoubtedly a generous reward. Even Su Wu, who worked in the Divine Constable Bureau might not be able to earn so much in a month!
“I’d like to hear more about it.” Su Jie decided to first find out exactly what sort of thing could earn him so much silver per month.
Yan Bin said solemnly, “Brother Tang, I won’t hide it from you… My Yan family has taken root in Heiye City and we have been rchants for generations. However, in this era, doing business properly alone can’t make money. Without strength, my family’s assets will be taken away. Therefore, my family joined the Flying Cloud Society and is a mber of the Flying Cloud Society.”
“Flying Cloud Society?” Su Jie was slightly confused for he had never heard of this na.
Yan Bin explained, “The Flying Cloud Society… is a local alliance of rchants in Heiye City. It was established by several families like mine to unite and protect our businesses and earn more money!”
“I see…”
Su Jie gradually understood that the Flying Cloud Society was a power that was sothing like a secret society or a triad. They naturally had to take action for things that could not be resolved through negotiation.
The Yan family was a mber of the Flying Cloud Society. Yan Bin himself was one of the hall masters of the Flying Cloud Society and had a lot of say in it.
Yan Bin said to Su Jie sincerely: “Brother Tang, I want to invite you to beco an ally of the Flying Cloud Society or in other words, a guest of my Yan family. I’ll give you a salary of 200 taels of silver every month and what you need to do is help when our Flying Cloud Society is in trouble… Under normal circumstances, there’s no need for you to help.”
Yan Bin had a great eye for talent and knew that Su Jie was not an ordinary person. It was impossible for him to join a small local triad like the Flying Cloud Society, so he invited him to beco an ally.
To put it bluntly, he was to be a high-level thug!
