Chapter 209: Chapter 209 It’s Simply Favoring Qi Yue.
Suddenly, Shen Wanzhen seemed to remember something and quickly stepped in front of Qi Yue, bowing deeply!
The previously arrogant demeanor instantly shrank, almost to the dust.
Qi Yue raised an eyebrow and quietly watched his performance.
“Divine Doctor Qi, I beg you to show mercy and spare the Shen Family. The Shen Family is willing to cooperate with the Divine Doctor, sharing profits fifty-fifty, no, forty-sixty, Shen Family forty, Divine Doctor sixty! What do you think, Divine Doctor?”
“Forty-sixty? Are you sure, Mr. Shen?” Qi Yue’s lips curled into a smile.
Shen Wanzhen, the old fox, knew that as long as she continued to cooperate, the Shen Family wouldn’t have to compensate or would negotiate and concede.
And this forty-sixty split profit left much room for manipulation.
If Shen Wanzhen was determined to play tricks, even giving away sixty percent of the profits would amount to very little money!
Cunning indeed!
“Sure,” thought Shen Wanzhen that Qi Yue was tempted, so he vigorously began to persuade her, “As long as the Divine Doctor agrees to continue the cooperation, my Shen Family can further let go of ten percent of the profits, Divine Doctor seventy, Shen Family thirty.”
Shen Wanzhen really thought he could fool her!
“Ha…”
Qi Yue couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
A flash of joy passed across Shen Wanzhen’s face.
“Does this mean the Divine Doctor agrees?”
“Mr. Shen is thinking too much, I just find it too amusing,” Qi Yue’s expression gradually became cold, “I refuse to continue the cooperation and demand that Mr. Shen immediately fulfill the compensation obligation stipulated in the agreement.”
“…you…”
Shen Wanzhen was suddenly at a loss for words, his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to do something to Qi Yue.
Qi Yue immediately stepped back and gave a bow to He Ziyue.
“Commerce Chief Sir, it seems that Mr. Shen needs to be compelled. I hope you will issue the order….”
She hadn’t finished speaking when Shen Wanzhen immediately interrupted.
“I accept! I accept the compensation! But the Divine Doctor must give me some time to prepare. After all, more than six hundred thousand Silver Taels is not a small sum….”
Qi Yue snorted coldly.
“Mr. Shen, are you underestimating someone’s intelligence? Do I need to tell you how much silver is in your warehouse?”
With that, she motioned toward Shen Zikuang.
“Young Master Shen, having worked for the Shen Family for over a decade, you surely should remember how much Silver has been brought in, right?”
“Of course, I remember, and very clearly. Over the years, I’ve trafficked Dongjiang medicinal materials throughout the entire Beiyuan, even to Western Chu and Nanyue, making profits of….”
“Shut up!” Shen Wanzhen rudely interrupted his narration, glaring fiercely at Shen Zikuang, “Dare to say another word, and you’ll never know the whereabouts of your biological parents for the rest of your life!”
Shen Zikuang’s gaze hardened, anger apparent on his face.
“You said that day that my parents were already dead!”
Shen Wanzhen sneered.
“Wouldn’t death have been too easy for them? Watching their own son rise to high status while they suffer like pigs and dogs, that’s the ultimate pain!”
“You, you are so malicious!” Shen Zikuang struggled to stand up, but fell to the ground.
This sudden accident tensed the atmosphere in the hall, and the topic of conversation shifted.
Qi Yue frowned and gave Qu Wei a look.
Qu Wei immediately understood and helped Shen Zikuang onto a wheelchair and left.
With the disturbance cleared, Qi Yue brought the conversation back to the topic of compensation.
“Mr. Shen, I only want Silver and gold, not silver notes. Please have them ready within the time it takes an incense stick to burn. If you delay, I cannot guarantee what might happen.”
Shen Wanzhen glanced at He Ziyue, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, and made a request.
“Sir, I can accept this compensation, but I cannot give Silver, only what the Shen Family currently has in place.”
He Ziyue glanced at Qi Yue indifferently.
“As an official overseeing the execution of the agreement, your proposal is feasible, if the Divine Doctor is willing, naturally it can be accepted.”
He paused, then added, “Besides the various medicine pavilions spread across the regions, only the pharmaceutical factory is decent, but sadly it’s of little use now.”
As he spoke about the medicine pavilions around the regions, Shen Wanzhen’s brow twitched, and he hurriedly said, “The pharmaceutical factory is suitable, this boy Shen Zikuang, behind my back, has cost nearly eight hundred thousand Silver Taels….”
“Eight million…” Qi Yue snorted, “Why didn’t Boss Shen say it was ten million? Shen Zikuang said he only spent over three million Silver Taels.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Wanzhen jumped up.
“That kid is lying. I had people check the books, and he actually spent over five million of the Shen Family’s Silver Taels…”
Realizing he had spoken the truth, Shen Wanzhen immediately stopped talking and fell silent.
He Zhijing waved his hand.
“Qi Yue, what do you think about compensating with the herbal factory for the breach of contract?”
“That’s possible, but nowadays the factory is nearly abandoned. I want a discount.” Qi Yue leisurely said, “Besides the factory, the Shen Family must give me another three million Silver Taels.”
“You, you’re robbing us!” Shen Zifang charged over, bellowing.
Qi Yue smiled, but it was not a smile.
“Then you can choose not to substitute the factory. I would prefer six hundred and sixty thousand Silver Taels in cash.”
“You…”
Shen Zifang was about to launch into a tirade but was pulled aside by Shen Wanzhen.
The father and son whispered to each other for a while, and finally they bargained down to two million Silver Taels.
Qi Yue did not agree, and the father and son whispered again. Finally, they agreed but made a request, allowing Shen Ziao to speak.
That was a trifling matter, and Qi Yue had no intention of silencing Shen Ziao for life, so she agreed.
With He Ziyue, the head of the Ministry of Commerce present, the transfer procedures were quickly completed.
After a cup of tea, the Shen Family Herbal Factory was officially renamed to Qi Herbal Industry, with Qi Yue as the actual owner.
The Shen Family father and son also had several chests of gold and silver brought in.
Initially, Shen Wanzhen wanted to see Qi Yue laughed at, planning to regain face when she couldn’t keep track of the amount.
Unexpectedly, Old Lady Zhang opened the chest and glanced at it, accurately reporting the total amount of silver.
“Miss, the Shen Family should have compensated three million Silver Taels, but here, there are only two million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand…”
Embarrassment spread across Shen Wanzhen’s face, and he immediately rebuked his servants.
“You blind fools, can’t even handle this simple task, hurry up and bring another ten thousand Silver Taels here.”
However, Qi Yue just snorted.
“Forget it, Shen Lord. I see you’re quite upset today, you might need medicine soon. Consider this ten thousand Silver Taels as a gift from me in advance…”
What did that mean?
Was she cursing him to die?
Half of Shen Wanzhen’s face was nearly twisted in rage, but in front of the stern He Zhijing, he couldn’t say a word.
He saw everything clearly today.
He Zhijing was blatantly favoring Qi Yue.
If he had just turned a blind eye, Qi Yue, an outsider, couldn’t have done much—simply nullify an agreement!
He couldn’t understand why He Zhijing, who had no apparent connection with Qi Yue, would protect her?
As he pondered, he heard He Zhijing speak amiably to Qi Yue, “Miss Qi, these Silver Taels are quite heavy. I’ll have someone deliver them to Linjiang Pavilion for you!”

Listen to that, how amiable his tone, not a bit of an official’s air.
A needle pricked Shen Wanzhen’s heart, uncomfortable yet he had to put on a face to cope.
“Sir, how can we trouble you with this matter? I’ll have someone send it.”
He Zhijing replied coolly.
“I’m a bit worried about the Shen Family’s servants. If they deliver it and again a ten thousand or twenty thousand are missing, it wouldn’t be good.”
What did that mean?
Clearly, he was suggesting the Shen Family handled matters dishonestly!
Ensuring they complied with the agreement and also responsible for delivering the Silver Tael back home?
Shen Wanzhen seethed with anger but couldn’t say anything.
The Shen Family business still needed to continue, and he dared not offend even the little lackeys of the Ministry of Commerce, let alone He Zhijing, the Commerce Chief.
