Although he had broken through to the fifth level of Qi Transformation, and could go ten or fifteen days without sleep without much effect, after sleeping for one or two decades, he would still feel a little unaccustomed to not being able to sleep after staying up all night.
After an unknown amount of time, Uncle Fu woke up Su Feng.
After breakfast, Su Feng went to the courtyard to practice Bajiquan.
Each move was executed with great force and speed, accompanied by sonic booms.
After practicing a few sets, Su Feng looked at the battered trees, raised an eyebrow, and decided to make himself a wooden dummy when he had time.
At this moment, the servant brought in two middle-aged or elderly men.
"Young Master, it's Master Ren!"
The maid explained.
Upon hearing this, Su Feng nodded and gestured for the servants to get to work.
"It's been a long time, Mr. Ren!"
Su Feng smiled and extended his hand.

Chapter 48 Ren Fa came to discuss business, and Su Feng asked for 70% of the profits.
please!
The three entered the living room and sat down. The servant brought out tea and poured it for them.
"I just finished exercising, please wait a moment!"
Su Feng said with a smile.
"Alright, no rush. We've come at the wrong time and have bothered Young Master Su."
Ren Fa, as expected of a seasoned businessman, responded with practiced shrewdness.
Su Feng asked Uncle Fu to entertain the two of them, while he took a bath and changed his clothes.
After exchanging pleasantries with Ren Fa in the living room, Su Feng directly inquired about the purpose of Ren Fa's visit.
Upon hearing this, Ren Fa took a sip of tea and slowly spoke.
"To be honest, the reason I came here this time is actually to discuss cooperation. Business has become increasingly difficult in recent years. Nowadays, apart from my few old acquaintances, I don't have many people left in the whole town. But they are all getting old. After thinking it over, I think Young Master Su is the most suitable!"
Ren Fa stared at Su Feng and said slowly.
The reason he sought out Su Feng was because Su Feng's business had been booming over the past year. Although it hadn't seen such a dramatic increase, it was still quite stable. This made him realize that Su Feng was no ordinary person, so he came here specifically to investigate.
Su Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, also seeing Ren Fa's helplessness, and sighed, "I wonder what industry Mr. Ren wants to enter. Business is tough these days, and change is indeed not an easy thing!"
This was his honest opinion. When he first started doing business, he relied on novelty, but as time went on, he also discovered problems. So he changed his strategy, using some common practices from later generations and making some modifications, which finally stabilized his business.
“That’s right. Today, we’re not here to discuss just one industry, but multiple industries. I want to connect Jiuquan Town, Baiyu Town, and several other nearby towns, and even extend our business to the provincial capital.”
Ren Fa directly stated his purpose.
Now Su Feng understood: Ren Fa wanted to establish a monopoly.
In this era, achieving a monopoly is both difficult and easy.
For him, ideas and money weren't difficult; the challenge lay in transportation and connections, as Ren Fa's network was indeed stronger than his.
After a moment of silence, Su Feng smiled and said, "Mr. Ren, this business is indeed worth doing, but as you know, simply putting up money isn't enough; you also need sufficient connections!"
"That's right. What Young Master Su said about seeking change is exactly what I want to do. As for relationships, I've already made preparations, so you can rest assured about that!"
Master Ren explained.
"If that's the case, why doesn't Master Ren do it himself? After all, I'm not as good as him in terms of connections."
Su Feng, on the contrary, was somewhat puzzled.
With the Ren family's wealth and connections, monopolizing the market wouldn't be difficult at all. Although he knew that the Ren family's business had declined in recent years, the money they had earned before was no small amount.
"As Young Master Su once said, we need to seek change. I'll figure out how to build connections. We'll split the costs 50/50 and the profits 50/50!"
"Master Ren said with a smile."
Su Feng understood that Master Ren wanted to spread the risk.
"No problem, but I want 70%!"
Su Feng spoke slowly.
"Seventy percent?"
Upon hearing this, Master Ren was surprised, his brows furrowed, and he looked at Su Feng with some incomprehension.
He paid half the money and handled the relationship aspect, putting in so much extra effort, yet he didn't ask for a single extra penny.
"Young Master Su, isn't that a bit much?" the Ren family butler, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but say.
Ren Fa did not stop him, and also thought that Su Feng had gone too far.
"Master Ren hasn't changed completely enough," Su Feng smiled and poured Ren Fa a cup of tea.
Do you know why I was able to rise in just three years?
Su Feng asked with a smile.
Ren Fa shook his head slightly. He had analyzed it as well, but ultimately attributed it to youth, ability, daring, and luck.
Su Feng shook his head and pointed his finger, saying, "You think I'm capable and daring, but that's not all. It takes knowledge, vision, methods, and attention to detail to make a business grow quickly. I can guarantee that the business will be stable and profitable after the change. That's what makes me so great."
These words silenced Ren Fa.
He has ventured into many new industries in recent years, but has lost a lot of money; otherwise, he wouldn't have sought cooperation with Su Feng.
He clearly has no shortage of connections and money, but he fails more often than others.
"Times are changing, people are changing, the principles remain the same, but the methods always need to change!"
Su Feng said with a smile.
Mr. Ren took a sip of tea and asked with some doubt, "Is Young Master Su really so confident?"
"I wouldn't dare say I'm completely sure, but I'm about 70% sure!"
Young Master Su waved his hand.
"Okay, I understand. In that case, I agree."
Ren Fa nodded, agreeing to Su Feng's request.
This greatly surprised the Ren family's butler and Uncle Fu, who were standing nearby.
"Mr. Ren is indeed straightforward. Furthermore, the reason why the Ren family's business has been declining in recent years is actually due to the reasons of their ancestors. Forgive my bluntness, but judging from Mr. Ren's appearance, I am afraid that he will soon face a mortal disaster!"
Su Feng said seriously.
Ren Fa was taken aback and asked, "Why is that?"
"It's also related to your ancestors. I just did some calculations, and it seems there was a problem with the feng shui of your ancestors, which led to a lot of bad luck!"

Chapter 49: A few words shocked Ren Fa, who inquired about Ren Tingting's marital status.
At this moment, Ren Fa recalled what the fortune teller had said, and was startled, feeling that Su Feng was somewhat mysterious.
Ren Fa thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "To be honest, twenty years ago a fortune teller said that my father's grave could only be used for twenty years, and that after twenty years the coffin would need to be exhumed and reburied. Now that time is almost up. Young Master Su, how did you know that?"
Su Feng smiled slightly and said, "It's just something I calculated."
This caught Ren Fa off guard.
"Master Ren's courtyard is afflicted by evil spirits, and it's estimated that he will soon face a mortal disaster. I've calculated the Ren family's fortune and found that a large part of the reason is likely due to problems on your late father's side, so I'm certain there's a problem with the feng shui!"
Su Feng spoke slowly and deliberately, his smile radiating confidence.
Ren Fa and the Ren family's butler stared at Su Feng in shock.
The Ren family steward was surprised that Su Feng, a businessman, actually knew about things related to feng shui.
Ren Fa was astonished that Su Feng knew so much just by making calculations.
"So what should we do to solve this?"
Ren asked.
“Of course the grave needs to be moved. The feng shui is bad, and continuing to use it could lead to very bad results. I also understand feng shui. If Master Ren needs it, I can help out. It’s my way of showing my sincerity!”
Su Feng said with a smile.
This left Ren Fa somewhat silent, his mind conflicted.
“Alright, I plan to exhume and rebury the body in three days. I’ll have to trouble you then, Young Master Su.”
Ren Fa stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and said.
"should!"
Knowing that Ren Fa was leaving, Su Feng stood up and returned the greeting with a cupped hand.
"In that case, we'll take our leave now."
Ren Fa nodded and prepared to leave with the butler.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Su Feng suddenly remembered a question.
"Mr. Ren, I wonder if your daughter, Ren Tingting, is married?"
Su Feng inquired.
Ren Fa turned around with some confusion, but after a brief moment of doubt, he understood and immediately smiled, "Not yet. If Young Master Su is interested, you should hurry!"
