Du Yuan smiled, "Though I don't know the purpose of your visit to the Underworld."
"But I know that you have come from the mortal realm to the Underworld."
Chen Nan gave her a resentful roll of his eyes.
Such a smart person.
How could she say something like this?
I've already told you I'm from the mortal realm.
If you didn't know, it means there's something seriously wrong with your brain.
Du Yuan continued, "You came from the mortal realm to the Underworld, right?"
Chen Nan: "......"
Du Yuan's smile grew even brighter.
She stood up, walked to the door, pushed it open, and stepped out. Standing by the doorway, she said, "Suppose I am in the mortal realm now. If I take a step into this room, doesn't that mean I've entered the Underworld?"
Chen Nan felt he was very intelligent.
But at this moment, he was left feeling a bit bewildered.
Du Yuan then stepped back out, "If I can enter the Underworld, I can also step back out."
"And if I can step back out,"
"I can also come back in."
"Coming and going, all of this is possible."
"Don't you find this rather comforting?"
"Suppose you return in the future."
"Can't you come back to visit me?"
"Who is to say you can only visit the Underworld once?"
"If you never return, even without me, don't you have many brothers and family members?"
"You can't possibly cut ties with them all at once and sever all relationships, can you?"
These simple words.
Immediately made Chen Nan's eyes light up.
He felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.
And a feeling of dispelling the mist to see the clear sky.
That's right!
I can come to the Underworld this time.
I can come again in the future!
Since I already know the way to the Underworld.
I can completely come for a trip when I have nothing else to do.
Go on a vacation.
Even go fishing in the River of Forgetfulness!
A vacation to the Underworld.
Fishing in the River of Forgetfulness.
This plan is quite acceptable, isn't it?
Thinking this.
Chen Nan's mind became clear!
Just as Du Yuan had said.
In the Underworld, he had not only her as a lover.
But also his mother.
And brothers.
Friends.
Some things, the moment he took over the host's body, were destined by fate.
Destined to be unbreakable.
Seeing the light shining in Chen Nan's eyes, Du Yuan was overjoyed. She quickly closed the door, then walked in front of Chen Nan and gazed at him affectionately, "Are there any obstacles between us now?"
Chen Nan leaned down and whispered in her ear, "One layer."
Adding them to the six, there were twenty in total.
Those men were all burly, with scowling faces.
They wore constable uniforms and carried curved sabers at their waists, exuding a powerful oppressive aura.
Seeing Chen Nan return.
Wu Jiu gathered the men and introduced them to Chen Nan.
Then he said, "Sir, the pier will officially open for shipping tomorrow. The first batch of supplies will arrive at the pier by tomorrow evening. They are said to be some specialty products from Dongning Prefecture."
"This is the declaration list from the Ma family." He then presented Chen Nan with a declaration list, which itemized over a hundred types of goods, valued at five hundred thousand taels of silver.
Chen Nan glanced over it casually. The items were all normal goods.
However, based on his understanding of the Underworld's prices.
If these goods were transported to Tongcheng.
Their price would at least double.
It was clear that the shipping industry could indeed be immensely profitable.
He looked at the laborers busy at the pier and a smile, laden with meaning, appeared on his face. "The pier is already built."
"If the Ma family wants to make a fortune."
"They will surely smuggle some contraband."
"Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such lengths to curry favor with me, and even search for ten-thousand-year-old Panlong Ginseng for me."
"Tomorrow is the first day of shipping."
"They probably won't think that by smuggling contraband, I'll give them special treatment."
"Just turn a blind eye, right?"
