Chapter 219 Engagement with Ning Tian
There are 10 blueprints in total, carefully selected by Ye Chen. They are all for level 1-4 soul tools, and they are all the most commonly used types.
However, Ye Chen's blueprints are easier to produce, which greatly reduces production costs, and the results are better than those on the market.
99% of the soul tools on the market are imported from the Sun Moon Empire, and they can even be considered imitations.
It's like a generic drug from a previous life; although it's similar, it's still inferior to the original drug.
Ye Chen's product is not only an "original drug," but also has a lower cost.
The competitiveness is off the charts!
Once it's made, even if it's more expensive than other soul tools of the same type, it will definitely become a huge hit.
The income from these soul tools is enough to allow the Tang Sect's outer sect to develop, expand outwards, or engage in exchanges.
Ye Chen's goal was to establish contact with Mingde Hall so that he could make things easier when he went to the Sun Moon Empire in the future.
Of course, the main reason is that he promised Tang Ya that he would develop the Tang Clan, and it would definitely not be enough to rely on just the current group of people.
"Good, good, good, they are all new types of soul tools, and the design blueprints are so exquisite..." Ning Xiuyuan is also a soul tool master and has a lot of knowledge about soul tools.
He only glanced at it a few times before realizing the immense commercial value of the blueprints Ye Chen provided.
Ye Chen and Ning Xiuyuan briefly discussed the details of the collaboration, thus setting the tone for the partnership.
It was already noon, and Ning Xiuyuan had naturally prepared a banquet early on, inviting Ye Chen to join him.
Ye Chen did not refuse.
……
The huge banquet hall was bathed in a soft glow.
The aroma of exquisite dishes blends with the fresh scent of flowers and trees.
The long table was already filled with prominent elders and stewards from the sect.
The main seat was naturally occupied by Ning Xiuyuan, with Shi Hao and Jian Wuchen, two titled Douluo, flanking him on either side. Ye Chen and Ning Tian sat side by side in the VIP seats opposite the main seat.
The atmosphere at the table was harmonious, with glasses clinking together.
Ning Xiuyuan was beaming, and he frequently raised his glass to Ye Chen, his words full of optimism about the prospects of the cooperation and appreciation for Ye Chen himself.
Shi Hao spoke in a loud voice, recounting amusing anecdotes from within the sect, his hearty laughter drawing echoes from the entire room.
After a few rounds of drinks, Ning Xiuyuan put down his jade cup and cleared his throat.
The once lively hall gradually quieted down, and everyone's attention was focused on the sect leader.
Ning Xiuyuan wore a calculating smile, his eyes darting between Ye Chen and Ning Tian before finally settling on Ye Chen. He chuckled and said:
"Young friend Ye, you know Xiaotian's heart is entirely with you. As her father, I see it all too clearly."
He paused, raised his voice slightly, and looked at the elders and retainers present with a clear smile, "Since all the elders are here today, how about we establish a formal relationship? I think it would be better if we arranged a marriage between the two of you, strengthening our family ties and allowing you to support each other legitimately in the future!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire banquet hall fell silent.
Ning Tian suddenly looked up, her face turning bright red like a ripe peach.
She glanced quickly at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with anticipation and barely concealed shyness, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her dress under the table.
She remembered her previous "little thoughts," and she never expected that her father would actually bring them up.
This made her feel both flustered and expectant, and she didn't dare to look at anyone else, only burying her head even lower.
Ye Chen's lips twitched slightly.
Ning Xiuyuan, that old fox, couldn't wait to use personal connections and titles to completely bind him as soon as the cooperation was finalized.
Ye Chen's gaze swept across the entire room.
Ning Tian's lowered profile, brimming with hope, came into clear view.
If I refuse now, it will definitely hurt Ning Tian.
Moreover... Ning Tian is already his person, so the matter of formal recognition is not unacceptable, whether sooner or later.
However, the feeling of being "forced into a corner" left Ye Chen speechless.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Chen noticed that the gazes of the others towards him also carried a hint of pressure.
Obviously, if he refuses outright, it won't affect the cooperation, but it will definitely affect the relationship between the two parties.
In a flash, Ye Chen made up his mind.
The engagement is merely a formality. It can put Ning Tian at ease and make him happy, while also completely dispelling the concerns of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and solidifying the cooperation between the two sides. Why not do it?
As for marriage, there's still a long way to go.
The decision should be made now, as the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.
With his mind clear, the look of surprise on Ye Chen's face vanished instantly, replaced by a composed smile.
He ignored the various expressions on the faces, turned his head to look at Ning Tian beside him, whose ears were bright red, and his heart softened a little.
He gently reached out and took Ning Tian's small hand in his. Then he looked up at Ning Xiuyuan and the others who were waiting for his reply in the main seat, and said with a smile, "My feelings for Xiao Tian are of course sincere. Since you all have this intention, then I will naturally not refuse this engagement."
"Ye Chen, really!"
Ning Tian's body jolted, and she looked up at Ye Chen with surprise. The blush on her face had not yet faded, but her beautiful eyes were filled with endless joy.
She thought Ye Chen would hesitate, but to her surprise, Ye Chen agreed immediately...
Sure enough, Ye Chen truly loved her.
She had been worried about it for a long time.
Thinking of this, Ning Tian immediately felt guilty.
I plan to make it up to Ye Chen properly when I go to bed tonight.
"Hahaha! Good! Good! Good!"
Ning Xiuyuan burst into hearty laughter from the seat of honor.
Most fathers are not happy when their daughters marry outside the family.
However, Ning Tian was going to marry Ye Chen, a top genius on the continent, and the two of them were in love with each other.
Although they are a little young, the marriage is still a great thing for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Excellent, Nephew Ye! From now on, we are truly family! Come, let's drink this cup to the brim and celebrate for our young son and daughter!"
The elders and stewards below also realized what was happening and their faces lit up with joy, raising their glasses in celebration.
"Congratulations, Sect Master! Congratulations, Young Sect Master!"
"A perfect match, a match made in heaven!"
Congratulations!
In an instant, the slightly tense atmosphere vanished, and the entire banquet hall was filled with laughter, congratulations, and the clinking of glasses, becoming lively and cheerful once again.
Ye Chen drank with everyone for a while before Ning Tian pulled him away.
Only then could the banquet truly be considered a success, with both hosts and guests enjoying themselves.
Ye Chen has achieved his goal for this trip. He doesn't need to worry about anything else in Tang Sect's affairs. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will send people to develop Tang Sect.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was now completely tied to Ye Chen.
Ning Tian got what he wanted.
That evening, Ning Tian took Ye Chen to Ye Chen's residence.
Although Ye Chen drank a lot, his strong physique meant it had almost no effect on him.
Ning Tian had also drunk quite a bit, her face was flushed. Although she was the one leading Ye Chen, it was Ye Chen who was supporting Ning Tian.
Ning Tian opened the door and pushed Ye Chen into the room.
"This is your home, are you going to sleep here tonight too?" Ye Chen was immediately a little embarrassed.
Although they were already engaged, Ning Xiuyuan certainly didn't know that he and Ning Tian had reached that stage.
If we sleep together at night...
"Hmph, I sleep with my fiancé, who dares to say anything?"
Ning Tian gave a soft snort, then pushed Ye Chen onto the bed and took the initiative to entangle herself with him.
Ye Chen treated her so well during the day, and was even willing to get engaged to her.
That night, she would definitely repay Ye Chen properly...
