Chapter 1284: The Qian Family’s Business Transaction
Their eyes met, and even though accepting the other’s goodwill was the best choice, Ye Qingci had to be extremely cautious, especially since the Qian family was never known for being simple.
Compared to the Shen Family, who conducted most of their business within Xia Country, the Qian family’s dealings were not only more lucrative but also involved more unspeakable entanglements.
Even when the Royal Family conducted transactions with the Qian family, they had to consider many aspects. If it weren’t for the Qian family having their own set of principles, the Royal Family certainly wouldn’t turn a blind eye to that closely-linked trade line with foreign connections.
But it was undeniable that dealing with the Qian family, whose business partners spanned across continents, was very costly—so costly that it might even be more than a matter of life and death.
It would have been one thing if it were just about her, but it was clear that they were here for Su Chengyu.
"Cold Moon Envoy, there’s no need to be nervous. Though my Qian family may appear greedy in your eyes, we’ve always been straightforward in our business. If we said that no payment is needed on your part, then none is needed."
That faint smile from Qian Jinchí made Ye Qingci even more suspicious. The more he acted this way, the more she had to consider why they wanted to help Su Chengyu.
Seeing Ye Qingci’s expression, Qian Jinchí sighed helplessly, glanced at Su Chengyu, and said, "Honestly, our Qian family owes Su Chengyu a great debt of gratitude, and offering this elixir is our hope to repay that debt."
"And then?"
Ye Qingci continued to inquire.
Qian Jinchí’s gaze rested on Su Chengyu, and the previously persistent smile finally slowly faded. "After that, of course, our Qian family will have no further involvement with him. That is the only condition."
