26: Chapter 26 Taking Control of the 'Qixia River' Scenic Area: Wang Jun's Clear Understanding!

"Yes." Jiang Jin did not deny it.

Young Master Wang stated solemnly, "In that case, we would like to 'purchase' some extraordinary items. You name your price, and we will accept the order as is. How does that sound?"

"That's fine, but I need to see what items you intend to purchase first."

Hearing Jiang Jin's response after a few moments of contemplation, Young Master Wang turned to look at the bodyguard captain standing straight at the courtyard entrance.

The bodyguard captain understood immediately, walked to the pavilion, opened the black briefcase in his hand, and placed it on the stone table.

Jiang Jin took the "purchase" list handed over by Young Master Wang and began to read it.

After a long time, he looked up and said, "Your total purchase quantity is only about a hundred or so items. That's not a big problem."

"How about this: in ten days, send someone to collect these extraordinary resources."

"Then we are very grateful to you, Mr. Jiang!"

A trace of joy appeared on Young Master Wang's face, and he asked again, "May I ask what items you require, Mr. Jiang?"

"I need various rare species from within the East. The more varieties, the better."

"...Rare species?" Young Master Wang was slightly stunned.

He had assumed Jiang Jin would ask for wealth, status, or an opportunity to enter the upper echelons of Yanjing and take control of this Eastern land.

After all, what people at the bottom of society seek their whole lives is merely wealth and a happy, peaceful Family life.

Few people at the bottom can remain unmoved when faced with high official positions, generous salaries, money, and status.

Of course, Young Master Wang also understood that with Jiang Jin's current extraordinary methods, worldly things likely held little appeal for him.

In an instant, Young Master Wang replied affirmatively, "Rest assured, Mr. Jiang, as long as the species exists within the East, I will deploy people to have them all transported to you!"

Then, he frowned slightly, looked at the space in the courtyard, and added, "However, there are at least thousands of such species. I'm afraid your courtyard won't be able to store them all."

"How about this? You can choose any scenic villa area in the provincial capital of Xiangnan or in Lingjiang City. I will arrange for my subordinates to have it transferred to your name, and then those rare species can be transported there?"

"What you say is true. The area in the village is indeed limited, and the number of rare species is far too vast to be transported in quickly."

Jiang Jin pondered for a moment, then looked at Young Master Wang and said, "No need to go to the Xiangnan provincial capital. I remember that Lingjiang City recently developed a new tourist scenic area called 'Qixia Valley'. That place will do."

"Qixia Valley... No problem. After I return, I will immediately arrange for the scenic area to cease operations and transfer it to your name."

Young Master Wang did not hesitate and agreed immediately.

Young Master Wang had seen the name of the Qixia Valley tourist scenic area in reports before. Although he didn't know the scale of its investment, in his view, it was completely insignificant compared to the current "interest exchange."

"Additionally, find me some 'Secret Cultivation Manuals' that the Buddhist and Daoist sects keep hidden."

"No problem!"

"That's all for now. We can discuss other things when I need them."

"Very well. Please rest, Mr. Jiang. My sister and I will return to Yanjing to handle the issues here."

Shortly after, Wang Zhen and Wang Yunxi respectfully bid farewell and left the village in a black bulletproof sedan.

Jiang Jin's courtyard fell back into quiet tranquility.

...

The red sun hung high in the sky.

Jiang Jin sat on his rocking chair, looking at the leveled vegetable garden, his eyes slightly dazed.

To him, the cultivation resources "purchased" by the Wang Family were not much, basically just some Spirit Medicine to extend life.

Although these were currently nowhere to be seen, once the Origin Continent grew, this would be a mere trifle.

The rare species from across the East and the cultivation manuals from the Buddhist and Daoist sects obtained in the exchange were only a small part. The real big items would need to be considered carefully before making further demands to the Wang Family.

Of course, he could choose not to trade, but after thinking it over, he felt it was better to give them some "grazing" to keep the Wang Family's appetite whetted, letting them work for him diligently.

Otherwise, even though he did not fear the Wang Family's retaliation or threats, there was no need to go out of his way to create a massive enemy for no reason.

His life principle was to not provoke others and for everyone to live in peace. But if anyone dared to "bare their fangs," he would destroy them with overwhelming force!

There would be no room... for negotiation!

Picking up his teacup for a sip, Jiang Jin leaned back leisurely in his chair, his consciousness entering the Singularity Universe.

...

The motorcade with Yanjing license plates left the village road and drove onto the nearest highway.

In the back seat of the black bulletproof sedan in the middle, Wang Yunxi asked her brother sitting next to her doubtfully, "Brother, didn't Jiang Jin say his extraordinary abilities are still in the Early Stage of growth? Could the interest exchange you set with him be a stalling tactic?"

"You have to know, we can only get our hands on those cultivation resources on the list in ten days."

"A stalling tactic? Perhaps." A trace of gravity appeared in Young Master Wang's eyes: "But overall, Jiang Jin doesn't seem like the type of unreasonable, violent person."

"Otherwise, if we were to fight, the ultimate beneficiaries would only be those large families in Yanjing that were originally in a weak position."

"When we are strong, they are as obedient as dogs. But the moment we show signs of fatigue, their 'jackal nature' will be exposed instantly. They will gather in groups of three or five, wanting to carve up all the status, resources, and power currently held by our Wang Family."

"But I always feel that Jiang Jin, who is beyond our control, will not be content with the status quo." Wang Yunxi said, her delicate brows furrowed as she expressed her point of view.

"That is natural. With the powerful ability to transcend the world, if one were still content with the status quo, they wouldn't be human." Young Master Wang's eyes were deep, and he said softly:

"For an 'Extraordinary Being' like Jiang Jin, either never become his enemy, and when necessary, even... submit to him! Or, use all our foundational weapons to eliminate him at all costs while he is still in the Early Stage! Besides that, there is no second option."

As Wang Yunxi listened with an extremely grave expression, Young Master Wang sighed softly, shook his head, and added:

"Clearly, as the top Family in the East, our Wang Family has a massive foundation and many clansmen; we simply cannot afford the possibility of the second option's cost."

"Using foundational weapons in a domestic residential area during peacetime is no different from exposing our most fatal weakness to other large families in Yanjing!"

The vehicle drove smoothly on the wide road. Facing the secret conversation between the brother and sister, the driver and the bodyguard in the passenger seat turned a deaf ear, their eyes focused meticulously on the road ahead.

Wang Yunxi asked in confusion: "Brother, since those large families are as ferocious as jackals and tigers, why don't we just replace them with a batch of obedient families to take their places?"

"Easier said than done. Our Wang Family may seem to stand at the peak of the mountain. In reality, we have many rival families. Take the Yao Family, for example; they have been fighting our Wang Family for nearly five or six years, and there has been no opportunity to wipe them all out at once."
