Chapter 943: Peacock Tattoo
Chu Mingyue was a famous beauty in Xijing. Ten Thousand Treasure House had many wealthy and noble guests, most of whom came for Chu Mingyue. Anything auctioned by her would often sell for several times its actual price. These merchants were eager to find a sense of presence in front of Chu Mingyue. Some even openly offered a million for a meal with her, a price comparable to some female stars. Unfortunately, no one has succeeded yet.
Among those who had the privilege to embrace Chu Mingyue, Zhang Xiaoshan was probably the first.
"You, you, you let go of me..."
Chu Mingyue's pretty face blushed as she tried to push Zhang Xiaoshan away.
Zhang Xiaoshan had started feeling the allure.
Capturing such a beautiful woman would surely be a success.
He stared into Chu Mingyue's eyes and unleashed the Dragon Spirit Skill.
Instantly, Chu Mingyue's consciousness began to blur, with a hint of losing herself.
In a flash, she felt her bones go soft, unable to stand steady or resist, beginning to lean into Zhang Xiaoshan, closely pressed against him.
Deep inside, she tingled with an urge to receive Zhang Xiaoshan's affection.
Zhang Xiaoshan's hands started to misbehave, applying more strength.
His hand moved from her back to the slit of her cheongsam, slipping inside.
"Mmm..."
Chu Mingyue's body twisted, a soft sound akin to a kitten escaping from her nose.
"Oh oh..."
As Zhang Xiaoshan touched the spot, Chu Mingyue could no longer control herself.
She stood on tiptoe, desiring to take action.
They were just about to connect.
"Creak."
A door beside them opened.
Liang Chengdao walked out from behind the door.
The opening sound startled Zhang Xiaoshan and the entranced Chu Mingyue.
"You, you, you let go of me."
Chu Mingyue promptly and bashfully pushed Zhang Xiaoshan away.
"Hmph."
Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled.
"Zhang, Miracle Doctor Zhang, I apologize, I interrupted."
Liang Chengdao had a face full of embarrassment.
"I, I'll wait for you in the room."
Liang Chengdao hurried back to the room.
"You scoundrel, what did you do to me?"
Chu Mingyue, with a face full of shame and anger, questioned Zhang Xiaoshan.
Zhang Xiaoshan replied with a roguish grin.
"Clearly, you were the one trying to do something to me. I was just cooperating with you. It's not my fault you're such a beautiful lady. Why be so proactive when you have no shortage of suitors?"
"Well, I hope you can change your ways, be more reserved."
After saying this, Zhang Xiaoshan also entered the room.
"I'm the one lacking restraint?"
Chu Mingyue was about to explode in anger.
Just after taking a step, she suddenly felt something unusual below.
Moist.
"How could, how could this happen, damn it..."
Blushing, she hurried off to change her clothes.
Zhang Xiaoshan just entered the room with Master Hei, and those affluent tycoons who had previously been in the Blue and White Courtyard all stood up to greet him.
"Where's my stuff?"
Zhang Xiaoshan unceremoniously sat on a single leather sofa.
"Arrived, arrived, all outside in the car."
Liang Chengdao carefully replied.
"I've had people load it onto the truck. Today it will be sent to White Dragon Village."
"Everything you wanted is here."
"That's more like it."
"Rest assured, there are benefits for you working for me."
Zhang Xiaoshan said, waving his hand.
Suddenly, a dozen poker-sized jade tokens appeared on the once-empty coffee table.
With the appearance of these jade tokens, everyone suddenly felt a refreshing breeze.
"Where did this come from?"
Everyone's expression was curious.
Master Hei stared at Zhang Xiaoshan's bracelet, noting the peculiarity.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, may I ask, is this the legendary Space Artifact that can store items?"
"Oh, you know about Space Artifacts?" Zhang Xiaoshan looked surprised at Master Hei.
Master Hei displayed a look of shock.
"It's truly a Space Artifact. I've only heard of it. This is the first time I'm seeing it."
"Miracle Doctor Zhang is truly extraordinary, possessing a Space Artifact. Amazing, amazing."
While surprised, Master Hei did not forget to flatter him.
Others were even more curious. Their admiration for Zhang Xiaoshan grew stronger.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, what are these things?"
Water transportation tycoon Liu Dajiang asked.
Zhang Xiaoshan replied calmly.
"You all like Magic Artifacts, right? I'll give each of you one."
"These items I've casually crafted have a low grade, considered Low Grade Treasure, among the Artifacts, they are mediocre."
"But they have many functions such as protection, exorcism, and enhancing spirit, ensuring your health and longevity with long-term wear."
"Thank you, Miracle Doctor Zhang."
Everyone started scrambling, afraid there would be none left for them.
"Magical, just holding it, you feel calm and centered, truly a great treasure."
"I've got a real Magic Artifact too."
Zhang Xiaoshan watched everyone's naive behavior with amusement.
Being strategic with people involves mixing grace with strength.
Today, he hadn't been idle at Breeze Courtyard. Using the jade scraps from Zhang Jian's underground treasure trove last time, he casually crafted some Amulets.
To Zhang Xiaoshan, these items were worthless, yet they were perfect for gaining people's loyalty.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, you saved my mother's life and gifted me an Artifact. Your kindness and virtue, I, Liu Dajiang, will remember. My life is yours."
"I, Qi Yuan, am also willing to serve you wholeheartedly."
Numerous merchants kneeled to pledge their loyalty.
To them, Zhang Xiaoshan was not just a Miracle Doctor but akin to a deity.
To one side, Master Hei was stunned.
Outsiders admire it, professionals see the nuances.
While outsiders revealed the virtue of the Amulet, Master Hei was astonished that Zhang Xiaoshan could craft Artifacts.
"It seems I truly need to cling tightly to Miracle Doctor Zhang. This may be an opportunity for me."
Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the kneeling merchants, feeling quite satisfied.
"Remember what you said."
"Work well for me, and you'll be rewarded handsomely."
"Elixir, Magic Artifact, however much you need, I have."
"But you have to bring valuable things to trade."
"Yes, definitely."
Everyone was overjoyed.
"Okay, Liang Chengdao, have the jade and fine iron prepared for me sent to White Dragon Village. I have other matters to attend to."
"Sure."
Liang Chengdao agreed without hesitation.
With that, Zhang Xiaoshan stood up.
The harvest from this trip was substantial.
Acquiring the fine iron and jade from these merchants allowed him to set up an array in the back mountains of White Dragon Village and also craft some Treasure swords to place in the Sword Nourishing Gourd. When he headed to the Northeast underground palace with Master Hei to search for treasures, he would be better prepared.
A few people accompanied Zhang Xiaoshan to the door.
Chu Mingyue was already waiting beside a Rolls-Royce.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, I've arranged for Mingyue to take you there."
Next to the car, Chu Mingyue was gritting her teeth, glaring angrily at Zhang Xiaoshan.
She had changed into new clothes.
Clearly, the previous outfit had been soiled.
Her gaze made Zhang Xiaoshan's heart stir; this woman would be his sooner or later.
"Alright."
Zhang Xiaoshan nodded.
Chu Mingyue sat in the co-pilot seat, Zhang Xiaoshan and Master Hei sat in the back.
"Mingyue, it's already late. After accompanying Zhang Xiaoshan to finish the task, don't rush back. I'll give you a few days off to accompany Miracle Doctor Zhang."
This was basically requesting Chu Mingyue to serve him.
"I, I understand."
Chu Mingyue was eager to gain Liang Chengdao's trust, so she nodded.
Zhang Xiaoshan said nothing.
The car started moving.
Heading straight to a high-class hotel in the center of Xijing City.
Tonight, Sun Dazhi, the factory manager of White Dragon Pharmaceutical, negotiated with Lin's Pharmaceutical's senior management about debt swap and affiliation of drug issuance permits.
As the boss, Zhang Xiaoshan definitely needed to go.
In the car, with nothing to do, Zhang Xiaoshan activated the Heavenly Dragon Divine Eye.
He wanted to see just how captivating Chu Mingyue's body was.
Vision cleared.
"Huh?"
When Zhang Xiaoshan observed Chu Mingyue's back, surprise flickered in his eyes.
Tattoo.
On her originally smooth and snow-white back was a vivid turquoise bird.
Was it a peacock?
