Entering the Heavenly Number One private room, Ye Tian found it to be extremely luxurious. The renovation costs for this single area alone must have started from at least a million.
"Is this your establishment?" he asked with a smile.
Shui Yuexian replied, "The owner of this restaurant used to work for me, managing some businesses. I haven't been in contact with him for nearly ten years, and I don't know how he's developed since then."
The group ordered some local dishes and a bottle of local wine, then began to eat and drink.
After Ye Tian had drunk about half a jin of wine, a man in his early forties hurried in. The moment he saw Shui Yuexian, he knelt on the ground and said excitedly, "Fairy, you've finally returned!"
Shui Yuexian smiled and said, "Mao Jin, please sit with us."
"I wouldn't dare," said the man named Mao Jin. He was about 1.7 meters tall, slightly overweight, with the shrewdness of a businessman on his face and a hint of thinning hair.
Shui Yuexian continued, "I told you to sit."
"Yes!" Mao Jin replied.
Mao Jin sat by the door, only daring to sit halfway on the chair, his body visibly tense. However, his eyes were fixed on Shui Yuexian, filled with reverence and respect.
Shui Yuexian asked, "Mao Jin, how have you been these past ten years?"
Mao Jin quickly took out a leather bag containing three account books and said, "Fairy, business has been very smooth for the past ten years. The company's assets have increased dozens of times. Currently, the net assets of the three companies under my name are about five billion. Additionally, I've saved 2.5 billion in cash over the years and bought some properties. The value of these properties is around 1.5 billion."
Shui Yuexian smiled, "I remember the assets you managed were only a few hundred million back then. Now they've increased so much."
Mao Jin chuckled, "Although Fairy hasn't been here, I haven't dared to slack off and have been working hard."
Shui Yuexian nodded, "Very good, I haven't misjudged you."
Mao Jin glanced at Ye Tian and Chen Hui and asked, "Fairy, are these two your friends?"
Shui Yuexian replied, "This is my good friend, whose cultivation is far above mine."
Upon hearing that Ye Tian's cultivation surpassed Shui Yuexian's, Mao Jin became immensely respectful and said, "Greetings, Immortal!"
Ye Tian was an Earth Immortal, so calling him an immortal wasn't entirely wrong. Shui Yuexian then said, "You may address him as Mr. Ye."
"Yes, Mr. Ye."
Ye Tian looked at the man and suddenly asked, "Are you ill?"
Mao Jin's expression dimmed, "Yes, I have a terminal illness and am currently undergoing conservative treatment."
Ye Tian said, "Come here."
Mao Jin walked over to Ye Tian. Ye Tian reached out and pressed several points on his body. Each press sent immortal energy into him.
Soon, the blockages in Mao Jin's meridians caused by his illness were cleared. At the same time, Ye Tian's immortal energy stimulated his vitality, increasing his immunity severalfold.
Mao Jin immediately felt incredibly comfortable. Then, Ye Tian patted him a few times on the back and said, "Go get paper and a pen. I'll write you a prescription. After half a month of taking it, you'll be recovered."
Mao Jin was overjoyed and quickly asked a waiter to bring paper and a pen, respectfully placing them before Ye Tian.
Ye Tian wrote the prescription for him and instructed, "You must not be intimate with women within three months. And do not drink alcohol for half a year."
Mao Jin asked, "And after half a year?"
Ye Tian replied, "After half a year, you can live as you normally would."
Mao Jin was ecstatic and kowtowed to Ye Tian.
Ye Tian waved his hand, "You are one of Yue Xian's people, so I naturally cannot stand idly by."
Mao Jin expressed his gratitude again. Ye Tian then asked him, "Do you know about Luolong Ridge?"
Mao Jin thought for a moment and said, "Yes, my hometown is not too far from there."
Ye Tian said, "You will be our driver tomorrow and take us to Luolong Ridge."
Being able to serve Ye Tian and Shui Yuexian was something Mao Jin eagerly desired. He quickly replied, "Yes, I will go and prepare now."
Shui Yuexian said, "There's no need to rush. It's not too late to prepare tomorrow. Let's eat together."
Mao Jin was flattered and offered tea instead of wine, toasting the group.
After a brief chat, Mao Jin said, "Fairy, Mr. Ye, actually, I could have done even better with my business. Three years ago, I took out a loan of three billion and acquired a piece of land for 8.5 billion. Six months later, due to the construction of a subway and the relocation of a school, as well as the new campus of Daxixi Hospital, the value of this land more than doubled, reaching over 29 billion.
"However, at that very moment, a major figure in the underworld from Rongcheng, in collusion with other developers, bribed local officials. They insisted that the original transaction was invalid and forcibly took back the land. Of the 8.5 billion, I was only refunded 6 billion, and the remaining 2.5 billion has not been returned to this day."
Shui Yuexian was furious, "These scoundrels! They dare to bully me!"
Mao Jin sighed, "The combined power of these people is immense. Since Fairy was not here, I did not dare to contend with them."
Ye Tian said calmly, "This matter is easy to handle. Tell me the names of the people involved and the names of those who seized the land."
Mao Jin nodded and immediately wrote down the names and positions on paper.
Ye Tian took a photo and sent it to Fukang, then called him, "Fukang, these people snatched a piece of land from my friend, causing a loss of over 20 billion.
Fukang looked at the photo and asked for the general situation, then chuckled, "This kind of trivial matter, I can handle it for the leader in minutes. Wait for my news."
Thus, the group chatted for over half an hour. Mao Jin then received calls from the officials involved in the land transaction, a total of five people. Each of them was as polite as a grandson.
