"Of course. Otherwise, how would I have come back so early?"
Su Tian said casually, making Fenghua's beautiful eyes flicker even faster as she began looking him up and down. She truly had not expected Su Tian to be so capable.
Being able to fight was one thing, but he was also proficient in antiques, and now he even understood geomancy and metaphysics. Naturally, she found it a bit hard to process.
"I've come to see you now to ask if you can help a classmate of mine."
"Help Wang Feng? Didn't you say you could solve his problems yourself?"
"I can indeed solve the problems he's facing, but what I can resolve are only the malicious setups orchestrated by others. I can't handle public opinion, nor can I solve the financial problem. But you can—you are the eldest young miss of the Feng Family, after all."
"I see. You certainly see things clearly. After all, public opinion isn't so easy to manage, not to mention the financial crisis. Right now, many institutions want to withdraw their capital from Fuduoduo Company, creating a massive shortfall."
Understanding dawned on Fenghua, while Su Tian looked at her in silence, clearly waiting for her answer.
After a moment of thought, Fenghua suddenly raised an eyebrow. "Are you certain you can solve the problem with his family's factory? I mean, once you break whatever array that is, won't the food produced by their factory run into accidents again?"
"I am certain."
"Very well, then I can give your classmate a hand. Here is what we will do: I will call my brother right away, have him mobilize his connections to temporarily suppress the public opinion, and simultaneously pull some strings to temporarily unseal their factory so production can resume. Furthermore, the Feng Family can provide the capital to advance the compensation payouts. But this comes with conditions."
"Name them."
"If everything goes smoothly and Fuduoduo's factory has no further issues, we want forty percent of the shares in Fuduoduo chain supermarkets."
"Agreed."
"Can you speak for Fuduoduo Company?"
"I can't officially represent them, but I know my classmate will definitely agree. After all, if things keep going this way, their family will go bankrupt, and many members of the Wang family will end up behind bars. Now that there's an exit route like this, he will definitely seize it."
Fenghua nodded as she listened. "Good, then I'll call my brother right now. You'd better inform your classmate as well."
"Will do."
Su Tian turned and left, going out to the courtyard to call Wang Feng.
Wang Feng answered immediately. After Su Tian briefly explained the situation, Wang Feng was overjoyed on the other end. "I agree, of course I agree! If things keep going like this, my family is going bankrupt, and my parents will both be locked up. How could I possibly say no to an opportunity like this?"
"Alright, then it's settled. Notify me once you've prepared everything."
Wang Feng agreed repeatedly, and Su Tian hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, in the room, Fenghua had also placed a call, laying the situation out directly.
"What? Xiaohua, are you sure you want me to help Fuduoduo Company? They're in massive trouble right now. Their financial shortfall has reached nearly fifteen billion..."
"It's not that much. We only need to use our influence and pull some connections. With our family's weight, the moment we step in, those investment institutions that previously rushed to demand compensation won't dare push it anymore. I estimate we can settle it for a little over a billion at most."
"That may be, but are you certain the problem with Fuduoduo's factory can be solved?"
"I have a high degree of confidence, because the person solving this problem is none other than the one currently protecting me. Like I said, he's not only skilled in martial arts, but also adept at antiques. Those three antiques with the highest profit from the previous deal at Guyuan Pavilion were all picked out by him."
"Is that so? He even knows geomancy? How can someone be this formidable?"
"I wouldn't know, and that's not the main point anyway. The point is that I hold him in very high regard. So, big brother, just tell me whether you agree or not."
The voice on the other end fell silent, but soon spoke up again. "Alright! You're always the one in our family with the best eye for people. Since you say so, there's no harm in taking a gamble. If it succeeds, we soar straight to the skies; if it fails, it is what it is—at worst, I'll just keep being looked down upon by the old man."
"Brother, don't talk like that. I know your capabilities. You excel at large-scale investments, while I excel at detailed investments. You just slipped up previously. As long as this succeeds, I guarantee you can pull off a gorgeous comeback."
"Haha, I hope so. By the way, Xiaohua, arrange it sometime soon. I want to meet this mysterious expert in person."
"Of course, that was my plan all along, but we'll have to wait until that Yeqiu leaves. Has he left yet?"
"Soon. After all, he's a busy man."
"Alright, let's leave it at that."
With that, Fenghua hung up the phone, and just then, Su Tian walked back inside.
"Is it settled?"
Fenghua nodded. "Settled. My brother will mobilize his connections tomorrow."
"Good."
Su Tian acknowledged, then returned to his room to begin cultivating.
Naturally, this time he was not purely cultivating. While cultivating, he was also studying the medical knowledge recorded in the Dongxuan True Scripture. After all, his mother had a weak heart, and he needed to find a method to nourish and regulate her condition.
A moment later, his heart stirred as he found a cultivation technique called the Heart-Nourishing Formula. The method of executing this technique was identical to the Spirit-Condensing Formula: it involved infusing spiritual energy into a person's body to regulate their heart.
With Su Tian's current Semi-Immortal Body capabilities, he naturally mastered it very quickly. Without delay, he went straight to find Yang Mei, intending to give her a massage.
Yang Mei was quite curious as to why Su Tian suddenly knew how to massage, and Su Qiang was equally curious. Su Tian offered no explanation, simply telling Yang Mei to sit down.
Naturally, Yang Mei would not refuse her son's request. As she sat on the sofa, Su Tian reached out and pressed his finger against the center of her brow.
This caused Yang Mei's body to jolt instantly, and the next moment, she fell fast asleep.
Furthermore, while she slept, Yang Mei's normally pale complexion rapidly flushed with healthy color. Su Tian's heart leaped with joy as he sensed that his mother's blocked cardiovascular vessels had cleared!
When Su Tian withdrew his finger, Yang Mei snapped her eyes open and said spiritedly, "Xiaotian, I feel so much better! My chest doesn't feel as tight as it used to. How did you do this?"
"Hehe, secret."
Su Tian chuckled, prompting Su Qiang to glare at him. "A secret? What kind of bullshit secret? Tell me right now, how did you do it?"
Su Tian immediately put on a pleading expression. "Dad, I learned this from an elderly master, and he made me promise to keep it a secret. Don't ask about it anymore. Here, let me massage you too."
Taken aback, Su Qiang wanted to press further, but Su Tian's finger had already pressed against the center of his brow. This caused him to jolt as well, and he instantly fell fast asleep.
Su Tian had utilized the Spirit-Condensing Formula, knowing that Su Qiang's mental state had been poor over the years, making this a good opportunity to regulate it for him as well.
When Su Tian withdrew his finger, Su Qiang snapped his eyes open, radiating a vibrant energy from head to toe.
"Ah, this feels amazing."
Su Qiang muttered in a daze, "I haven't felt this comfortable in years."
"Hehe, Dad, Mom, you two are going to feel better and better from now on."
