Chapter 105: Chapter 105 Selling Wine and Overcharging (2)_1
"Rare goods fetch high prices, yet you’re selling them so expensively even though you have so many!" Yun Jin said.
"But there are only so many on the entire Continent. Isn’t that considered scarce?"
Dugu Qianye watched the two with pained expressions on their faces, delightedly holding the card in her hand while comforting Dudu, who was pouting inside the Refining Demon Pot.
"Master is so mean, selling all the liquor I brewed."
"Dudu, we may have run out of liquor, but we can always make more. After all, we have countless Spirit Fruits inside the Refining Demon Pot, but we can’t just make money appear out of thin air. You see, with so many of us to support, don’t we need a lot of money?"
"It seems so. Then I’ll brew more liquor, and when we’re out of money, we can just sell it."
Dugu Qianye was speechless watching the little figure busily picking Spirit Fruits from the mountainside. She really wanted to tell him that there weren’t always fat sheep to be slaughtered.
The next day, Xie Ping led the teachers and students of the academy back to Pu City, while the fourth prince and those envoys stayed in Cangqiong Empire to discuss tribute matters with the other three countries.
News that the Mors Empire had won first place had already spread throughout the country. Whenever the Flying Hawk Team from Empire College flew over a city, cheers could be heard from below.
Since there was no rush, everyone traveled during the day and rested at night, finally arriving back in Pu City after half a month. Upon reaching Pu City, the Flying Hawk Team flew directly into Empire College and landed in the plaza.
At that moment, the plaza was filled with teachers and students of the academy. Xie Fan stood in the middle of the plaza, watching the students disembarking one after another, his usually serious face revealing a satisfied smile. Qianye really hadn’t let him down; she had trained this group very well.
The academy’s students, on the other hand, were filled with regret. Why hadn’t they taken part in the selection? Those people were just Phantom Masters and Sword Masters half a year ago, and now they had become Great Phantom Masters and Phantom Kings. Their self-confidence and decisive aura had reached a level that made others look up to them.
"Director, we’re back," Dugu Qianye said, leading over a hundred students to Xie Fan. Xie Ping had slipped away as soon as the team arrived at the academy, and the teachers leading the team had also stepped aside, leaving Dugu Qianye to step up herself.
Xie Fan nodded and said, "You’ve all worked hard. You’ve brought the highest honor to the Empire, and the academy is proud of you. You must continue to strive for excellence in the future, do you understand?"
"Yes, Director!" The uniform reply resonated with many.
"The Royal Family has prepared a celebration banquet for you tomorrow evening. You’re off from classes today and tomorrow. Now, you may go back to your dormitories and rest. Baili Xie, come with me."
Dugu Qianye followed Xie Fan to the principal’s office, and sure enough, Xie Ping was lying in his usual spot. He seemed unfazed by their entrance, as if he had never left.
Xie Fan led Dugu Qianye to have a seat and poured her a glass of water, saying, "Qianye, you’ve trained them very well. Your contribution to our first-place victory is indisputable."
Dugu Qianye simply smiled, accepting the praise.
"Do you have any suggestions for the delegates going to Holy Sea City?"
"We might face tough battles there; I think we should select those with relatively higher strength," Dugu Qianye suggested after some thought.
"Right, no one knows exactly what the situation in Holy Sea City is. If our strength is too low, there might be danger when the time comes."
"Each of them has a Divine Beast; they should be capable of defending themselves," chimed in Xie Ping’s ethereal voice.
Xie Fan was momentarily taken aback by Xie Ping’s words, then laughed and turned to Dugu Qianye, "Divine Beasts really have become like cabbages to you."
Dugu Qianye didn’t say anything.
"I’ll discuss the candidates with your Grandfather Xie later on. Alright, you can go and rest now."
"Grandma Xie, could you please help us get out of the celebration banquet tomorrow? It would be great if the Royal Family could just give us any rewards directly. Thinking about banquets and such is just so bothersome!" Dugu Qianye said on her way out.
"You little devil, go ahead. I’ll talk to the Royal Family in a bit,"
"Thank you, Grandmother Xie."
Watching Dugu Qianye leave, Xie Fan couldn’t help but utter again, "This girl!" Then he took out his communicator to get in touch with the Royal Family.
When Dugu Qianye returned to the courtyard, Sun Kui and the others had already tidied up the room and were chatting in the pavilion. As soon as Dugu Qianye entered, she saw the four of them gathered together, discussing something.
"Why aren’t you resting in your rooms? What are you doing here?" Dugu Qianye walked over and asked.
"Hehe, boss, we were just talking about what rewards the Royal Family might give us!" Sun Kui said with a laugh.
"Stop dreaming; you’ll find out tomorrow. Well, maybe even sooner than that," Dugu Qianye walked over and slapped him on the head.
"Could it be that we’ll receive our rewards today?" Lei Xiaohu asked.
"I asked Director Xie to cancel the banquet. With the banquet gone, the rewards will naturally be sent directly to us," Dugu Qianye said.
"Really? That’s great! Attending those banquets is no fun," Sang Yu clapped her hands joyfully.
"Boss, how about we have barbecue tonight? It’s been so long since we’ve had your grilled meat!" Sang Yu suggested.
Hearing Sang Yu’s words, the other three looked at Dugu Qianye together.
"Not tonight, I have to make a trip to the Mo Residence," Dugu Qianye said. Seeing the disappointed looks in their eyes, she chuckled inwardly and added, "However, if you help me tidy up the room, you can come with me to the Mo Residence. Maybe I’ll feel like having a barbecue at home if I’m in a good mood."
"Oh! Boss, we’ll go right now." The four immediately ran to Dugu Qianye’s room and started cleaning. Dugu Qianye watched them, amused.
"Uncle."
"Father."
"Family Head."
Dugu Qianye, Mo Ziqing, Mo Feng, and Gao Liang, the four of them, arrived in the hall.
"Haha, Qianye, you’re back!" Mo Ju saw Dugu Qianye coming in, ran over and grabbed her hand, "Sister said you would come back, but I didn’t believe her."
"Mo Ju, you’re so hasty, what’s that look!" Mo Jian reprimanded, "Come back here."
Mo Ju stuck out her tongue at Mo Jian and returned to her seat.
"Uncle, these are Gao Liang, Sun Kui, Sang Yu, and Lei Xiaohu. They all live in the same courtyard as I do," Dugu Qianye introduced.
"Haha, welcome, welcome. You haven’t had dinner yet, have you? Someone go tell the kitchen that the young miss and young master are back, and to prepare more dishes tonight," Mo Chi called out to a servant outside.
"Uncle, it’s not necessary," Dugu Qianye interjected.
"What’s the matter?"
"Just have the kitchen cook as usual. We’ll make the rest ourselves."
Dugu Qianye led everyone to the courtyard and instructed the kitchen to prepare and skewer the meat, then brought out the barbecue stove and tools. Xiaohuo and the other beasts had already come out, playing around Dugu Qianye joyously. The dining table was also set up in the courtyard, where Dugu Qianye’s grilled meats and other dishes were placed together.
