Chapter 152: Money for Life
"Even children who are almost legitimate cannot stand it—"
This is talking about the Maki sisters.
“How many people in the entire Zen temple truly support it?”
Su Ze's tone was flat.
Gojo Satoru was busy eating snacks, and the crisp sound of his chewing was a bit abrupt.
……
The so-called "negotiations" lasted a total of five days.
As Su Ze wished, he visited almost the entire Zen Temple family. On the last day, the other party even brought out the elite of the elite - "Handle" in order to exert pressure.
This is the top combat power of the Zenin family. Every member is at least at the level of a quasi-first-class magician.
There are seven in total.
This is just the number that remains in this family.
If we include members and branches scattered across the country, the number will be even greater.
Su Ze didn't care much and walked through the welcoming avenue formed by the "Handle" members without any concern. Gojo Satoru glanced at them without mercy.
The so-called negotiations remained the same as in the previous few days, insignificant and with little results.
They still hold their own opinions and refuse to give in to each other.
If I were to talk about anything interesting these days... I guess it would be Zenin Maki who came to see Su Ze again yesterday.
She came here secretly, after all, the cumbersome house rules of the Zen temple and her status as a female member firmly confined her.
Su Ze had a good talk with her.
This little thing added a little color to this boring trip to the Zen temple that was destined to fail to reach a consensus.
"...I understand. I will not ask Hui to return to the Zen Temple anymore."
On the afternoon of the fifth day, Zhibi of the Zen temple came to this conclusion while drinking.
Both sides, refusing to give in, were stunned for a moment.
Su Ze blinked slightly, then gave a faint smile.
"Of course, in the same way, he is no longer a member of the Zen House - including the rights of inheritance and inheritance."
Zenin Naohito continued.
"Of course. However, I have another request--" Su Ze smiled.
"I would like to accept Miss Zenin Maki and Miss Zenin Shinei as my apprentices—"
"What...!?" Zen Yuan was stunned.
"Nonsense! They are not only from the Chanyuan family, but also women!" The sisters' father, Chanyuan Shan, had veins bulging on his forehead and spoke sternly.
Zenin Naohito barely suppressed the restless Zenin Sen and Zenin Shinichi.
Zenin Naoya's expression became visibly uglier: "Suze Special, you are joking, right?"
Su Ze smiled and said nothing.
It's exactly as he knew...
Look down on the colleges and universities, look down on the women——
It is better to say that the only thing they value is the "Zen Temple", and the small group of the most top-notch and eye-catching people in the "Zen Temple".
"Su Teji, I am also curious about the reason... What's more, no matter what, they are Shan's daughters." Zenin Naohito spoke.
"It's simple. Maki's cursed energy is weak, just like me—"
"As for Mayi...because they have a very good relationship as sisters--"
Su Ze said frankly.
This simple and crude answer left the other party speechless for a moment.
"Master of the Zen Temple, I would like to discuss some details with you in private--" Su Ze said with a pleasant face.
"...No problem. Please move to my residence."
The layout of the residence of the Zen monks is simple.
There are no excessive decorations or exaggerated embellishments, which seems to be related to Zenin Naohito's own experience - for a long time before becoming the head of the family, he was just an inconspicuous person in the side branch.
The few valuable items in the room were probably moved in after he became the head of the family in order to maintain the appearance of the "Zen Temple".
"Master of the Zen Temple, what do you think of my proposal?"
Su Ze knelt in front of the low table.
"I wonder what exactly Su Ze is referring to? Is it Maki and Mayi, or is it…"
The Zen temple Zhibi only said half of his words.
Su Ze curled his lips.
He really noticed his own meaning.
At the end of the first meeting, before leaving, Suze said, "I thought the Naobi people would make him pay."
What he meant was that he had thought that the Zen temple Naobi people would take advantage of the situation and use it to embarrass them - if that was the case, there was no need to continue the conversation.
But the Zhibi people in the Zen monastery did not.
So Su Ze continued to say "I have been carefully protecting this teacup", meaning that he always held a trace of "goodwill" and was unwilling to completely oppose the Zen temple... and, just like he kept the teacup, he also kept a new "path".
Su Ze held up two fingers and said, "In my opinion, these two things can be said together. For you, Mr. Chanyuan, this is a sure win-win business—"
He stared at the Zen temple Naobi.
Gojo Satoru and Fushiguro Megumi were eating and drinking in the private room.
"My dear friend Su Ze, you should understand that my position as the head of this family is also like walking on thin ice..." Zhibiren drank tons of wine.
"I've seen it. There are ulterior motives within and dangerous enemies outside, and the 'Zen Temple' itself is on the verge of collapse--" Su Ze commented bluntly.
"…If only Naoya could be half as thoughtful as Su Xiaoyou." Naobi sighed.
"Everyone has their own aspirations. There's no need to force them." Su Ze looked apologetic and shrugged to comfort him.
"What a saying, 'Everyone has their own ambitions'," Naobito stretched his sore shoulders, "So Su Xiaoyou thinks that Maki and Mayi's ambitions are not in the Zenin family?"
Su Ze tapped the table with his fingers: "That's right——"
“Just like the ultimate aspiration of a Zen temple, it cannot and will not be limited to just a Zen temple.”
At the end of the first meeting, Su Ze said before leaving, "I'm taking care of the children recently and I'm really short of money," indicating that he would take good care of Hui and there was no need to worry about Hui's growth.
As for the meaning of "short of money", it implies that one is "alone and weak" and may need some help.
Zen Temple Naobi looked at Su Ze with a sharp gaze: "Young friend Su has great ambitions. If Zen Temple helps you...what can you get?"
Su Ze was stunned.
Then he burst into laughter.
“Pfft…Hahaha, hahahaha—”
“S-Sorry…Haha, hahahaha—”
Zen Temple Naobi did not get angry nor did he flatter Su Ze. He just waited quietly for Su Ze to control his emotions.
He stared at Su Ze without saying a word, his face looking a little gloomy.
After a long time, Su Ze reluctantly stopped laughing and looked amused.
He looked down and slowly scanned the layout of the room, and finally his eyes fell on Naohito himself: "Mr. Zenin, you really misunderstood~"
Zenin Naobi and Su Ze's eyes met.
There were different emotions in Su Ze's deep eyes.
Distinguished, intriguing, all in the palm of your hand.
For a moment, Naohito felt as if he saw the vertical pupils of a snake.
It trembled and shook like a targeted prey.
Su Ze spoke with interest, like a poisonous snake spitting out its core.
"This is not a question of whether or not to return the favor..."
"Rather, do you want to pay a sum of——"
"Money to buy your life."
