International Tycoon

"It's fine. Since he wants to see me, just let him come directly," Qin Ning said after a moment of thought.

"Alright, I will arrange it shortly."

Elder Zeng nodded. After chatting with Qin Ning for a few more sentences, he hung up the phone.

"Brother, was that Elder Zeng on the phone? Did something happen?" Qin Fei asked curiously.

"It's nothing much. I just conveniently saved someone on my way back."

Qin Ning smiled faintly, then briefly recounted what had just happened.

"Richard? The current patriarch of the York family from Country Y?" Hearing this, Wang Er, Xia Fei, and the others all showed surprised expressions.

As top-tier young masters in the country, their families naturally had some business dealings with foreign industries.

Especially Richard, who ranked near the top of the rich list; they had heard of him more than once.

They never expected that Qin Ning would casually save him.

Compared to the others, Su Xingwan was even more shocked that Qin Ning had actually saved a stalling, plummeting airplane!

She knew Qin Ning was extraordinary, but she didn't expect him to be extraordinary to this extent!

...

In the afternoon.

Outside the villa, a top-tier luxury car came to a stop.

Richard stepped out of the car. He stood at the door, feeling nervous and apprehensive. Just as he was pondering how to present himself for the visit, he suddenly saw a young man walk out holding a bag of trash.

"Hey! Buddy!"

He quickly approached with enthusiasm, speaking in somewhat broken Chinese, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Qin Ning's home?"

"Are you Richard?"

The young man was none other than Wang Er, who had come out to throw away the trash.

Looking at this middle-aged foreigner, he remembered the things Qin Ning had mentioned at noon.

"Yes, yes, yes, and you are..." Richard nodded.

"Wait a moment while I throw this trash away."

Wang Er said, walking toward a distant trash can.

"Let me do it! Let me do it!"

Richard hurriedly snatched the trash bag from his hands, ran over to the trash can, threw it in, and then ran back.

Seeing this internationally renowned billionaire actually fighting to help him throw away the trash, Wang Er was dumbfounded. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was a good thing he had clung to Qin Ning's coattails; otherwise, let alone having the man help him throw away trash, he probably wouldn't even have the qualifications to meet him.

"Hello, Mr. Richard, my name is Wang Er. Young Master Qin mentioned you would be coming today. Please come inside with me."

Wang Er shook his hand and then led him into the villa.

As soon as he entered the door, Richard saw Qin Ning sitting on the sofa watching TV with Qin Fei, and he hurriedly scurried over.

With a thud.

He fell to his knees, shouting loudly, "Thank you, Eastern Immortal, for saving my life!"

"Get up."

Qin Ning spoke calmly, looking at him. "Saving you today was just a small effort. Running into me can be considered your serendipity. There is no need for words of gratitude. Just remember to make more investments in our country in the future."

"Investments! I will definitely invest!"

Richard nodded earnestly. "Rest assured, Eastern Immortal, from now on, all the resources and investments of my York family will definitely prioritize Huaxia! No! We will only invest in Huaxia! No, no, no... I will give you all my money. I wonder if you would be willing to take me in..."

This was the true purpose of his trip.

Ever since he learned of the existence of the Eastern Immortal, Richard suddenly felt that everything else in this world had lost its flavor.

Money and women had all lost their meaning.

Now, he only wanted to follow by Qin Ning's side. Being a servant or even a slave would be fine. If the other party could give him some pointers and lead him on the path of cultivation, he was completely willing to give up everything he currently possessed.

Hearing this, Qin Ning immediately laughed and looked at him.

He didn't expect this guy to be so passionate about cultivation.

To the point of being willing to give up all his wealth and dignity for it.

He fell silent for a moment, then said, "I don't want your money, and you don't need to give it to anyone. Just like I said earlier, invest more in Huaxia. Since you are one of the top billionaires internationally, you should understand how to use money to make more money better than anyone else. Keep that money for yourself, use it to generate even more wealth, and bring more investments to Huaxia."

"As for cultivation..."

"I can only say that your talent is very poor, or rather, your physical condition is very poor. Over the years, you haven't held back on overindulging in your desires, have you?"

Hearing this, Richard scratched his head somewhat awkwardly. He was still unmarried, but he had indeed played around with countless women. Saying he had overindulged was absolutely correct.

"However, it is not entirely impossible to nurse it back to health."

As he spoke, Qin Ning took out a few medicinal pills. "Take these medicines on time, once every seven days. After three courses of treatment, your body should be able to recover to the level of a normal person. At that time, you can continue to nourish it with immortal tea."

"Seven times?"

Richard was taken aback for a moment, then nodded earnestly. "I will remember that."

"I said seven days."

Seeing him like this, Qin Ning knew the guy had probably misunderstood something and couldn't help but add another sentence.

"Uh... once every seven days. I understand." Richard also realized his mistake.

"After your body is conditioned, you can just follow them to cultivate, but whether you succeed or not will depend on yourself." Qin Ning pointed at Xia Fei and the others.

"Great, great, thank you, Young Master Qin!" Richard was ecstatic and bowed repeatedly in thanks.

In the evening, Zhou Ping'an and Cai Cheng prepared dinner. Qin Ning was cultivating in his room and did not come down.

Richard served food to everyone like a servant, only sitting down himself at the very end.

"Richard, you don't need to be so polite. Since Young Master Qin let you stay here, we are all on the same side from now on," Zhong Mingyuan said.

"I can't do that. I know you in Huaxia place great importance on respecting teachers and honoring the Dao. Now, all of you are considered my senior brothers and senior sisters, so naturally, I have to take good care of you." He spoke with a smile, without the slightest bit of complaint, even taking pride in it.

The thought of being able to cultivate by Qin Ning's side and potentially flying through the skies and burrowing into the earth like him in the future made him incredibly excited.

But little did he know, cultivation was one thing, and flying was another.

Being able to cultivate did not mean one could fly.

Above the Body Tempering Realm was the Pulse Condensation Realm, and after Pulse Condensation was the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Only by reaching the Spirit Transformation Realm could one rely on their own power to fly.

And in an environment like Earth, it was almost impossible for a cultivator of the Pulse Condensation Realm to be born, let alone the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Ring, ring, ring...

Just then, Cheng Weiyang's phone rang.

She glanced at the caller ID; it was her brother, Cheng Mo. "Brother, what's the matter?"

"Weiyang, there's been a slight hiccup over at Hongtai Liquor. President Zhuo Zhikuan and I have now arrived in Liu City. I wonder if it's convenient for you and Little Fei? We'd like to come over and discuss the situation with you in person."

Hongtai Liquor in Bin City had previously been invested in by the Xia family, and was later merged into the Feiya Group.

General Manager Zhuo Zhikuan and Deputy General Manager Cheng Mo were coming over to report in person. It was clear they had run into an issue they couldn't resolve themselves.

Sitting right next to Cheng Weiyang, Qin Fei had also overheard the conversation on the phone. "Weiyang," she suggested, "just have them come straight here."

"Alright."

Cheng Weiyang nodded, then spoke into the phone, "Brother, I'll send you the address right now. You guys can just head straight over."
