Chapter 116 The Min Clan: Keep swearing!
"You can rest assured about the shop's affairs!"
"You've come to the right person to ask me about this!"
"I've been around Soto for so many years, and I do have some connections, to say the least."
"Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll definitely find you a shop in a great location at a reasonable price!"
Flander spoke with great enthusiasm, emphasizing the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast and Shrek Academy, and also mentioning that he should help Tang Chuan find a shop.
It wasn't that he was eager to lick his boots.
Instead, he wanted to bring both Tang Chuan and his brother to Shrek Academy.
He had witnessed firsthand how popular Tang's Takeout and Tang's Iced Tea were in Notting City. With Tang Chuan's skills and his unique food-type martial soul, Blue Silver Grass, if he opened a branch in Soto City, he would definitely make a fortune!
Not to mention that the two brothers have Clear Sky Douluo behind them.
If we could bring those two brothers to Shrek Academy, along with Dugu Yan, the granddaughter of Poison Douluo, it would be a sure win!
Shrek Academy?
Dugu Yan chimed in curiously, still holding the unfinished sugar painting in her hand: "How does it compare to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
"Of course, my Shrek Academy is superior!"
Flander puffed out his chest and boasted, "The Heaven Dou Academy only teaches fancy moves. My Shrek Academy doesn't teach any of those fancy tricks; we only teach practical combat!"
"There are three promising students in the academy right now."
"One is Oscar, a food-type Soul Master with innate full soul power; another is Lie Feng, an offensive Soul Master with the Soul Burning Lamp as his Spirit; and the third is Li Baobao, a support-type Soul Master with the Twin Love Magpie as his Spirit, whose support abilities are no weaker than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect..."
Flander explained in detail, his smile growing even warmer.
Tang Chuan could easily see through his thoughts.
He didn't expose him, and replied with a smile, "Thank you for your help, Uncle Flander. Once we've settled the shop matter, I'll go with you to your Shrek Academy."
"No need to wait!"
When Flander saw that he had relented, he laughed even harder.
He pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from under the counter, on which was drawn a simple map of Soto City, with the locations of several shops circled in charcoal: "Tang Chuan, look."
"These properties are all for rent or sale."
"I asked you to help me list this for sale before. This is the best one. It's in the center of the commercial street, a three-story building with a small courtyard of over 100 square meters. The environment is very well maintained."
"The landlord is an old carpenter who is moving to Spirit City with his son soon and wants to get rid of the property as soon as possible."
"If you think it's okay, I'll take you there right now, and I guarantee it'll be done in half an hour!"
Then, Flander assured him, "Don't worry, I'll personally negotiate the price for you, and you definitely won't suffer any losses!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Flander."
Tang Chuan carefully examined the location of the small building on the simple map drawn by Flander, and it was indeed better than the one at the street corner he had looked at before.
"No trouble at all, no trouble at all."
Flander waved his hand and walked towards the door: "Let's go over there now, and we'll go back to Shrek Academy after we've settled things."
Tang Chuan and Dugu Yan exchanged a glance and quickly followed.
The three walked and talked, with Flander going on and on about how strong Shrek Academy's faculty was and how talented its students were.
Tang Chuan would occasionally offer a few perfunctory words.
Thinking to himself: So before Oscar enrolled, Shrek Academy had two students... Well, what kind of academy would it be if it didn't have any students at all!
The transfer of ownership was processed very quickly.
Flander, as expected of a local bigwig in Soto City, had connections to help him cut in line and get a particularly good price: three thousand gold soul coins for a one-time buyout.
Tang Chuan certainly didn't carry that much money with him; Flander paid for it all.
Tang Chuan naturally appreciated this gesture.
I plan to arrange a top-grade Immortal Herb for Flander once we've become more familiar with each other, not only for this help but also for the kindness shown to him by the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
Although it was a deal between Tang Hao and Flander, Tang Chuan couldn't be careless.
Soul beasts aged over 30,000 years are quite troublesome even for Soul Sages, but Flander insisted on taking three every week without fail.
Whether he hunts alone or with the help of Shrek Academy teachers, it doesn't matter.
Tang Chuan accepted the favor when the soul beast was brought to him.
While processing the transfer of ownership, Tang Chuan didn't forget to take out a Blue Silver Grass leaf to send a message to his younger brother Tang San, asking Tang San and Meng Yiran to come over together.
Hey mistress, come to the shopping street. Sister Yan and I are waiting for you at Uncle Flander's shop.
Finally, Tang Chuan drew the mark from the Flander shop sign on a blade of grass, believing that Tang San would understand its meaning upon seeing it.
"Just this three-story building!"
Flander called over several craftsmen carrying tools: "Clean the inside, repaint the walls, and if Tang Chuan has any other requests, just give them what they need."
"Thank you for your help, Uncle Flander."
Tang Chuan smiled and thanked him, "That's fine for now. I'll work with Xiao San to plan and design the shop window later."
"Why are you being so polite with me, old man!"
Flander waved his hand and said to the craftsmen, "Then clean it up first, paint the walls, and finish it within two days. I'll pay double the wages."
The craftsmen's eyes lit up when they heard about the extra money: "Don't worry, we guarantee it will be done in two days!"
"Uncle Flander is so hospitable."
Dugu Yan tugged at Tang Chuan's sleeve from the side.
Tang Chuan smiled but didn't say anything.
He knew what Flander was thinking, of course, but the other party had indeed helped a lot, so it wouldn't hurt to go and see Shrek Academy.
"By the way, Uncle Flander."
"I just notified Xiao San. Let's go to your academy together when he gets here!"
"Notify?"
Flander looked at Tang Chuan with suspicion, wondering how Tang Chuan, who had been right under his nose, could have informed Tang San.
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan took out a leaf of Blue Silver Grass and handed it to Flander.
He explained with a smile, "This is Xiao San's second soul skill, Blue Silver Network."
"Messages can be sent through the Blue Silver Grass leaves he provides or the Blue Silver Grass he plants, allowing for instant communication no matter how far apart you are."
"I just sent a message to Xiao San using a Blue Silver Grass leaf, and I even drew your shop's signboard mark on it. I reckon he should be on his way here by now."
"Second soul skill?"
"If I remember correctly, you two brothers only recently awakened your Spirits, right?"
Flander took the blade of grass, his gaze towards Tang Chuan filled with even more confusion.
"Yes."
"You'll see when the mistress arrives; it'll open your eyes!"
Tang Chuan smiled mysteriously, anticipating Flander's shocked reaction when he saw Tang San's second Spirit Ring after a thousand years.
Flander held the Blue Silver Grass leaf in his hand, his curiosity growing even stronger.
However, he didn't press further, but instead smiled and nodded: "Alright! Then this old man will wait and see!"
"This soul skill is really good!"
"I never expected that the Blue Silver Grass Spirit could produce such a soul skill. Its practicality is even stronger than that of the Swift of the Agility Clan."
Flander couldn't help but sigh, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that bringing the Tang brothers into Shrek Academy was his most important task at the moment.
