Chapter 252 Lady Troubles

• Qin Ming grunted, “You damn old man. Just say it. I'll want to know what condition it is first.”
• Zhang chuckled, “Mu Hairan was ordained in the past. He was a Taoist priest from Mount Longhu like me. The Mu family has always been a rich family with many children, and they always fought over the inheritance. As Mu Hairan was important figure in the family, he hid away on Mount Longhu to save himself. Although he was trained on Mount Longhu, he did not steer his mind away from mortal needs. Instead of learning Taoism and ethics, he studied economics, languages, and finance. My master did not think that he was suited to be a priest, and had him chased out.”
• Zhang seemed to be enjoying his recollection. In the end, he shook his head and laughed, “Later on, he went to the north and married a wealthy family's youngest daughter. With the newfound support, he returned to the Mu family. And with my help, he managed to win all of the Mu family's inheritance. I had been the one strategizing his moves.”
