The touch of the man’s thin lips seemed to linger on Su Qian’s lips. The tips of Su Qian’s ears were a little hot as she lowered her eyes to hide her discomfort. “I’m fine. I need to hurry back to take care of the children. You can eat slowly,” she said.

After saying that, Su Qian grabbed Xiao Yin, who had begun gnawing on the chicken wings and left under Gu Qingyou’s slightly disappointed gaze.

Gu Qingyou lost his appetite after Su Qian left. He hurriedly put down his chopsticks and strode out of the room to arrange the tasks Su Qian had assigned to him.

The next morning, news of Ancestor Su’s willingness to sell their ancestral mansion for 100,000 taels of gold spread like a gust of wind through the streets and alleys of the Su family.

Considering the size of the Su family’s ancestral mansion, it should have cost at least 150,000 taels of gold. Now that it was being sold at such a low price, it attracted the attention of various aristocratic families and martial arts factions. They all wanted to purchase the Su family’s ancestral mansion.

However, Ancestor Su had also made it clear that the Su family’s ancestral mansion was being sold at such a low price because they needed money urgently. If anyone wanted to buy their ancestral mansion, they had to pay the full 100,000 taels of gold upfront and could not delay payment.

This one hundred thousand gold taels was not a small amount. Any faction that came up with such a large sum of money in one go would suffer a significant loss. Therefore, the Su family had a hard time finding a buyer for the time being.

…..
Nor only that, but Gu Qingyou also sent someone to notify the Su family that if they could not come up with the money to buy the medicinal herbs soon, they would have to sell the medicinal herbs to others.

The Su family was in a badly battered state. They tried their best to raise the money, but they were still far from the required 100,000 taels of gold. Ancestor SU and Su Chenghua were worried all day long. They were so worried that their hair was about to fall, but they still could not find a suitable solution.

Forced by circumstances, Ancestor Su had no choice but to lower rhe price of the Su family’s ancestral mansion. From the initial 100,000 gold taels, he lowered it to 90,000 gold taels, then So,000 gold taels, and finally 70,000 gold taels.

Just as the various factions were greedily waiting for the Su family to lower the price of their ancestral mansion even further, a mysterious tycoon entrusted Gu Qingyou to buy the Su family’s ancestral home for 75,000 taels of gold.

With Gu Qingyou acting as the middleman and the tycoon willing to pay in cash, Ancestor Su handed over all the deeds and contracts of the Su family’s ancestral mansion without hesitation.

In just half an hour, the 75,000 taels of gold from Feng Lin Auction House’s treasury had been sent to the Su family. After the Su family had sold everything they had, they gathered 80,000 taels of gold and were sent back to Feng Lin Auction House.

Although they were still short of 20,000 gold taels, Gu Qingyou gave the Ancestor Su face this time. He agreed with the Su family that they could pay the remaining 20,000 gold taels after 20 days, but it must not be overdue. Otherwise, they would have to pay 10% interest for each day of delay.

There was no reason for Ancestor Su to disagree. He quickly signed the contract with Gu Qingyou and took the medicinal herbs they needed home. Then, he handed them over to the people of the Heavenly Medicine Sect to start refining Soul Cleansing Elixir madly.

Three days later, the Su family’s medicine workshop began to sell Soul Cleansing Elixir.

When ir was heard that the Su family was selling Soul Cleansing Pills, all cultivators in the imperial capital were in an uproar.

It could be said that everyone knew about it when it was mentioned.

This elixir could increase the strength of cultivators below the third stage. One elixir was equivalent to a person’s painstaking cultivation for three months. Moreover, one could take it once a month. It could even be taken continuously for a year. To many cultivators, it was a huge temptation..
