Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 309 - 311 Heading to Mount Yunmeng [5/6]

Wu Tian paid no mind to how Wang Dawan and his son were doing. He arrived at Qin Corporation—no, what should be called Boundless Corporation. That day, the company was bustling until work ended at six in the evening.

The employees felt exhausted, but they were also happy. The wage system at Boundless Corporation had changed. Instead of a fixed salary, the more they sold, the higher the commission they earned.

After work, Qin Yuhan announced, "I've calculated today's sales." Having once been the top accountant in Yang City, her fingers flew across the keys of a calculator. This speed was no surprise; when typing on a computer, she could reach twenty thousand characters per hour. In this regard, she was anything but normal. She quickly arrived at a result. Even though her beautiful eyes had seen countless large sums, she still looked a little surprised.

"How much?" Murong Yezi asked. She had been helping out earlier and had lost count of how many boxes of milk she had moved. Today's sales figures must be astronomical.

"We sold a total of 4,105 boxes. With 50 bottles per box and each bottle priced at 250, after deducting material and utility costs, the net profit is 50,000,000. When you add the orders from Wang Congming and other regions, it brings the day's total to 300,000,000."

Keep in mind, this was just from sales in the Heavenly River area of Yang City. The potential for future expansion was immense.

Such an amount was indeed substantial, and any businessperson could see the potential of the Herbal Milk.

"Mr. Wu Tian is incredible. Not only is he the number one expert, but he's on his way to becoming the number one businessman," Cui Chong expressed with admiration.

When people discussed the tycoons of Dragon Country, there was Liu Botong, famous for not realizing his wife was beautiful; Wang Dawan, who claimed to have started with nothing; and Yun Ma, who regretted his creation. They were all impressive, but no one would consider them candidates for the world's richest person.

However, Cui Chong and the others believed that if Wu Tian focused on business, he could definitely become the wealthiest man in the world.

The title of world's richest man, however, meant nothing to him.

"The first day of Herbal Milk sales was a great success, and that's all thanks to everyone's hard work. I've decided to give each person a 1,000-yuan bonus for supper," Wu Tian announced. As the top helmsman of Boundless Corporation, he was already thinking about how to build a more people-centric company. He could afford to earn less money himself. Of course, this was only possible because Wu Tian was indifferent to such sums. Any other boss would never have had such an idea.

"Great!"

"Thank you, Boss!"

"We'll work even harder!"

The employees erupted in cheers upon hearing this.

Wu Tian looked at Qin Yuhan and smiled. "Are you satisfied with this?"

"I'm satisfied with whatever you do," Qin Yuhan said, signaling that she had no intention of interfering with his decisions. She had already resolved to become a good wife and mother.

"Am I a third wheel?" the little one in Wu Tian's arms suddenly called out. Her soft, sweet voice made everyone around them laugh.

"Yes, you're our little third wheel."

"A cute third wheel, at that."

Everyone burst into laughter. After the joyous chatter, they talked for a while longer before going their separate ways.

「On the road, in the car.」

"Were you scared during the test today? Did you miss Mommy?" Qin Yuhan asked, holding the little one close and gently nuzzling her forehead against her daughter's.

"Nope," the little one shook her head. I was so happy today and I did so well, I didn't have time to miss anyone.

Qin Yuhan pretended to look sad.

Seeing this, the little one panicked. "Mommy, I was wrong! My darling Mommy, I was actually thinking about you the whole time!" With that, she planted a loud SMOOCH on Qin Yuhan's cheek, making her laugh.

On the way home, they picked up dinner from a restaurant. Once they arrived, they started eating while watching television. Eating dinner in front of the TV seemed to have become a habit for most people in Dragon Country.

Yang City's television station was broadcasting the news, which happened to be focused on that day's events at Boundless Corporation. The report formally introduced the company and then featured celebrities like Xiao Tianzan and Cui Chong, as well as Wang Dawan and Wang Congming.

"They didn't even show me!" the little one pouted while watching the TV. "Who filmed this? They have no taste at all! They don't have an eye for beauty!"

Wu Tian, Murong Yezi, and Qin Yuhan couldn't help but smile.

Is she already concerned about beauty at her age?

Qin Yuhan fed the little one a mouthful of rice and laughed. "I think the Admiral of the Nine Gates will also use official resources to help us advertise. It will only get more popular from here. Boundless Corporation's rise to become one of the top three corporations in the South is now unstoppable."

Murong Yezi nodded in firm agreement.

Why only the top three? Because the headquarters of the Qianli Group, QQ, and WeChat were all in the South.

"I'm just worried about copycats," Qin Yuhan said with concern.

"No need to worry," Wu Tian shook his head. "Even if others tried to imitate it, they could only mimic the form, not the essence. The key to the Herbal Milk is the Elixir. In this secular world, who could possibly possess my skill in Alchemy?"

After hearing Wu Tian's explanation, Qin Yuhan and Murong Yezi were finally at ease.

The little one, a true foodie, was unconcerned with such matters. Lately, food hasn't been as enjoyable. The most delicious thing I've ever eaten was Dad's cooking. It's a shame he hasn't been in the kitchen recently. This is so sad.

Just as Wu Tian was about to ask the little one what was wrong, his phone rang. He answered it.

It was a call from Cui Ming, son of Cui Chong and the current Family Head of the Cui Clan of Qinghe.

"Mr. Wu Tian, I'm so sorry," Cui Ming's apologetic voice came through the moment the call connected.

"What happened?" Wu Tian remained unflustered, already prepared for trouble. He was confident he could turn any tide. Divine Skills might not overcome destiny, but that all depends on how powerful those skills are!

"Wu Fa and Wang Cai were taken away, and my men couldn't stop them," Cui Ming said, his voice laced with self-reproach. "But as Wang Cai was being taken, she screamed one thing: 'Mount Yunmeng!'"

"Okay, no worries," Wu Tian said calmly after a pause. "It's a small matter. You don't need to blame yourself."

"But I still feel responsible. My Cui Clan of Qinghe has some influence near Mount Yunmeng. I have a cousin, Cui Tian, who's somewhat well-known in that area. Mr. Wu Tian, perhaps you could ask him to help investigate." Wu Tian might not have minded, but Cui Ming did. The Cui Clan of Qinghe wanted to take action themselves.

This was why the Five Surnames and Seven Families could stand on equal footing with the Jianghu sects. Their influence was nearly omnipresent, with some power in every corner of the country. They were a force that could never be underestimated.

"No need. I'll go myself."

Wu Tian made his decision.

Mount Yunmeng. It's where Wang Dawan's innate essence was stolen and the clue Wang Cai left behind. The sheath might be there, too. After all, Mount Yunmeng was rumored to be the location of Ghost Valley. I have to make this trip.
