Hearing Ximen Gong's words, Ling Xuan was tempted.
In truth, he had long been dissatisfied with the Jiang Family's profit-sharing. As an Alchemist, he worked himself to the bone performing Alchemy, only to receive a mere one-tenth of the profits.
Of course, he was only responsible for the Alchemy; the sales and all the materials were provided by the Jiang Family.
Even so, he felt he should receive at least one-fifth.
Now, Ximen Gong's offer was even more astonishing. Ximen Gong was actually willing to split the profits fifty-fifty with him.
However, he remained reserved for a moment.
"Patriarch Ximen, isn't this... inappropriate?"
"After all, I've been with the Jiang Family for many years."
He couldn't just agree to Ximen Gong's proposal right away. For now, it was just talk. He had to make Ximen Gong show more sincerity.
Ximen Gong seemed to have come prepared.
He took a stack of papers from his Qiankun Bag.
And handed them directly to Ling Xuan.
