Second Brother Meng’s voice was dry. “Yu, Uncle Meng is scared of being poor! Is there no other way?”

Wang Yu understood what Second Brother Meng was thinking. If Wang Yu were in his shoes, he would also be hesitant to hand over this mineral vein.

“Uncle Meng, although I’m a martial artist now, I haven’t practiced martial arts for long. I’m afraid I can’t help you secure this vein alone.”

If you really want it, you might have a way to gamble on it, but it might not work.”

“What way?” When Second Meng heard that there was a chance, he immediately asked, his eyes filled with hope.

“My master is the owner of the Shadowless Fist Dojo. His cultivation level has reached the fifth level of Body Tempering. If he is willing to lend a hand, he might be able to help you take this vein!

Of course, to impress him, we still have to give him a share of the profits from this vein.”

Wang Yu’s only thought was to rope in a powerful person in town. Even though the profits of the mineral vein would be divided up.

However, as long as this powerful man’s character was reliable, the remaining profits would definitely make Second Brother Meng rich. He might even be able to turn the tables and reach the peak of his life.

Of course, it still depends on whether Second Brother Meng was willing or not.

Wang Yu could only give a suggestion.

Second Brother Meng was obviously a little hesitant. “Yu, will your master…”

He was not familiar with Sun Chengshan so he was still worried that Sun Chengshan would also harm him after the news of the mine was exposed.

This is not his fault though. Anyone would be more sensitive after being hurt once.

Wang Yu sighed and said, “Uncle, you have to take as many risks as you want to obtain benefits. Relatively, someone like my master who has quite some fame in town will do things more safely and not act rashly.

Of course, if you don’t want to, just pretend I never mentioned it.”

In fact, based on Wang Yu’s understanding of Sun Chengshan recently, he could tell that although Sun was a little greedy, he had his limits.

Coupled with his coordination as a middleman, as long as both parties agreed to sign the contract, this collaboration could be established.

Second Brother Meng finally gritted his teeth and said, “alright Yu, I trust you. Even if I can only get 20%, no, 10% of the profits from the mine in the end, it’s fine!”

Based on Second Brother Meng’s understanding of the purple coal mine, 10% of the profits seemed to be enough for him to become rich.

“Alright!” Wang Yu nodded. Since Second Brother Meng had already made his decision, he believed that Sun Chengshan would definitely agree to it too.

At that moment, he first chased away all the hooligans before rushing back to the dojo with Second Brother Meng.

It was noon when he returned. Zhang Erdan was still sitting listlessly in the office.

“Eh, Junior Brother Wang, you’re back so quickly. Is the commission done?” Zhang Erdan asked.

“Not yet. Is Master back?” Wang Yu asked. Whether the commission is completed didn’t matter anymore.

“Oh, you’re looking for Master. He just came back and is in the back room.” Wang Erdan pointed and said.

“Uncle, wait here for a while.”

With that, Wang Yu walked straight into the inner courtyard.

Zhang Erdan couldn’t help but sigh.

“How nice. I also want to be given special attention by Master.”

Wang Yu was the third disciple in the dojo who could freely enter and leave the inner courtyard.

The first two were Senior Brother Song Hezheng and the talented Ji Fei.

Wang Yu also enjoyed such privileges. Obviously, it was because Sun Chengshan valued him enough that he gave Wang Yu special treatment.

No matter how low-key Wang Yu usually was, this fact could not be hidden.

He entered the inner courtyard alone and knocked on Sun Chengshan’s door.

Sun Chengshan was sitting on a recliner by the window with his eyes closed. When he saw Wang Yu enter, he couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter?”

“Master, you haven’t been at the dojo recently.” Wang Yu didn’t reveal his intentions directly.

In the past three months, the two of them had become more familiar with each other. They were not as distant as they had been in the beginning.

“Hmph, brat, do you think it’s so easy to open a dojo? There are many places that I need to visit.”

Sun snorted softly and rocked gently in his recliner.

“Have you been confused about your cultivation recently?”

Wang Yu shook his head. “No.”

“Yes.” Sun Chengshan nodded and continued, “Speaking of which, among the disciples I’ve taught, you’re the one who made me worry the least and also the most talented. You’ve reached the second level of Body Tempering in less than three months.

This is indeed impressive, but you have to remember to be humble at all times. You have to know that the cultivation strength of the second level of Body Tempering is really nothing in the island town. You can only defeat ordinary people.”

Sun Chengshan patiently reminded him.

“I will remember,” Wang Yu said calmly.

“Since it’s not about cultivation, why are you looking for me? I’d make it clear first, I don’t have any fish left. If you want more, you can only wait until the next tide.”

Sun Chengshan said calmly without opening his eyes.

“It has nothing to do with fish either. I’m here to discuss a deal with Master.” After chatting for a while, Wang Yu did not plan to delay any longer and went straight to the point.

“What deal?” Sun Chengshan chuckled, it seems that he did not expect a young disciple like Wang Yu to suddenly come to him for a deal.

How could Wang Yu not see Sun Chengshan’s smile? It was obvious that he did not give much attention to the deal he was talking about.

His expression was calm as he slowly said, “A vein of purple coal.”

“Huh?” Sun Chengshan opened his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Yu.

Wang Yu roughly told him about Second Brother Meng’s story and the cooperation proposal he gave.

“Master, no matter how small this purple coal mine is, you should know its value. This transaction will depend on your willingness to do it.”

After hearing what Wang Yu said, Sun Chengshan was no longer sleepy. His eyes were shining brighter than ever.

He looked at Wang Yu from the corner of his eye. “Hmph, are you looking down on me?! Even if our Shadowless Fist Dojo’s foundation is insufficient, our strength is obvious. What can’t we do?!”

“Since Master is willing to cooperate, I’ll invite him in.” Wang Yu smiled and said.

“Okay,” Sun Chengshan agreed.

Soon, Second Brother Meng followed him in.

“Greetings, Master Sun.”

Sun Chengshan nodded and sized up Second Brother Meng. “I’ve already heard about the mineral vein from Yu. Congratulations on your meteoric rise, Brother Meng.”

Second Brother Meng was overjoyed. “So you agreed?”

“This is a win-win deal. I have no reason to reject.” Sun Chengshan smiled, making Second Brother Meng even more excited.

“But I still need to actually inspect it before I can discuss a series of terms of the contract with you.”

“Of course, of course!” Meng the Second nodded eagerly.

“Then lead the way. There’s no time to lose. Let’s go now!” Sun Chengshan looked at Wang Yu and said.

Although Sun Chengshan looked calm on the surface, Wang Yu could sense his anxiety.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have immediately made a move to personally check the mineral vein.
