Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Order Explosion

“Huff, huff, huff…”

The communication talisman rang.

“Hello?”

“Jiang Cheng, are you awake yet?”

“Huff, yeah, huff, I’m awake.”

“That…,” He’s voice sounded quite conflicted over the communication talisman, “Are you free to talk now? Is Miss Liu by your side?”

Jiang Cheng: ?

Jiang Cheng stopped his morning run, puzzled, “Liu Qing isn’t by my side.”

“So, what are you doing now?”

“I’m running by the roadside.”

“Really running?”

“Of course.”

“You scared me to death.” He heaved a huge sigh of relief.

“He, you called me early in the morning, what’s up?”

“That… Is Miss Liu really not beside you, huh?”

“Really. She’s not.”

Jiang Cheng reiterated his assurance. He didn’t understand why He kept asking about Liu Qing. Could it be that she called early in the morning just to ask about Liu Qing’s whereabouts?

“Oh right, I almost forgot the important matter. That is, the tasks for your talismans increased by over a hundred last night. I estimate there might be even more today, so keep it up. But don’t overwork yourself, take care of your health, and if you don’t feel like doing it, I’ll find a way to help you turn them down.”

Over a hundred tasks suddenly weighed down on Jiang Cheng, and even if Yue Linger worked at full capacity to draw talismans, she could only manage about thirty a day at most.

To deal with over a hundred tasks using only Yue Linger, they would need at least three or four days. But who could say there wouldn’t be even more tasks tomorrow?

Despite the pressure, Jiang Cheng still seemed very calm.

“Don’t worry, He, I’m starting to address the production issue these few days. I won’t let the clients wait too long.”

Jiang Cheng hung up on He’s call and found Yue Linger’s contact in the communication talisman, but then he checked the time.

Seven in the morning, a bit too early. Let her sleep a little longer.

At eight o’clock, Jiang Cheng, carrying breakfast, knocked on the apartment door on time.

Almost the instant he knocked, Liu Qing had already opened the door.

During this time, they had quite the understanding between them, with each day passing much the same.

Jiang Cheng handed over the breakfast, which Liu Qing naturally accepted.

Jiang Cheng entered the apartment, while Liu Qing stayed put, holding the breakfast, closing the door for him before she too entered.

The morning sun was pleasant, and Jiang Cheng, feeling it was about time, called Yue Linger using the communication talisman.

“Hello…”

A person’s lazy voice, sounding half-asleep, came through the communication talisman.

“He told me there are over a hundred more tasks for talismans,” Jiang Cheng stated the fact.

“Hmm…”

The person continued in their languid tone.

“I’m planning to find more talisman masters.”

“Hmm!?”

Yue Linger’s voice suddenly became sharp.

“Can you come over? I’d like to discuss this with you in person,” said Jiang Cheng.

“Sure, sure, I’ll be right there!”

Yue Linger quickly hung up the call.

She was now devoid of any sleepiness, her mind preoccupied with the thought of what if Jiang Cheng no longer needed her.

A huge sense of crisis struck, and Yue Linger sat up in her pajamas, pondering on her bed. She found that her sole advantage over other second-order talisman masters seemed to be her “daughter” status!

What was once a difficult matter for her to mention had now become her advantage.

They say that fortune turns with time, do not look down on the young and poor. But this rule, when applied to Jiang Cheng, surely turned too quickly, didn’t it?

Liu Qing wouldn’t bask in the sun while eating.

She usually prefers eating in a cool, quiet place with a sense of security.

For instance, at this moment, as Jiang Cheng sorted out his strategy for the Lotus University practical assessment, Liu Qing sat quietly beside him, holding the breakfast—meat buns bought by Jiang Cheng—and ate with small bites.

If it weren’t for the occasional wafts of her cool scent, Jiang Cheng wouldn’t even know that Liu Qing had gone off elsewhere.

After spending some time together, not only had Liu Qing grown accustomed to Jiang Cheng, but Jiang Cheng had also become accustomed to Liu Qing.

He didn’t need to look; simply by the scent and its distance, he could tell what she was doing at the moment.

As for the combat assessment strategy, with the relentless efforts Jiang Cheng put in during these days, he almost had it completely organized.

However, there was a little interlude when, after gathering Yue Linger’s experiences, Jiang Cheng discovered while organizing that what Yue Linger had said differed somewhat from the records in “Dialogue with College Students.”

A regular person might have raised doubts, but as a planner with some knowledge of psychology, Jiang Cheng knew it was entirely normal for different people to recount events differently.

Because a person’s subconscious mind always tries to either vilify or beautify past memories.

This is a self-protection mechanism.

After revising a portion of his notes, Yue Linger’s description and the records from “Dialogue with College Students” now matched up perfectly.

Next, Jiang Cheng focused on thoroughly studying the materials, striving to uncover the design ideas and underlying logic of Lotus Cloud University’s practical assessments!

Then, using these underlying thoughts, he planned to design special Talismans for the assessment in advance!

Finally, he would confidently enter university and become a proud college student.

Thud, thud, thud.

The door was knocked.

Without needing Jiang Cheng to say anything, the housekeeper of Liu University took the initiative to open the door.

Yue Linger rushed in, covered in dust.

Strapped for time, she had been jogging all the way and was slightly out of breath, but her face still wore light makeup that added to her charms, and she had even applied some lip balm.

Yue Linger was not a female cultivator who liked to wear makeup; rather, every time she came to Jiang Cheng’s place, she needed makeup to give her some comfort.

After all, she was facing a woman with the surname Liu!

Only the person concerned knew how much pressure that was.

“Have you already found other Talisman Masters?” Yue Linger asked as soon as she came in.

Jiang Cheng shook his head, “Not yet, I wanted to discuss it with Yue first.”

Yue Linger pulled out a chair and sat opposite Jiang Cheng, saying as calmly as possible, “The Talisman is yours, you can decide who draws it, I have no right to interfere.”

Jiang Cheng nodded, “That’s true, but Yue, after all, is a second-level Talisman Master, and you have much more experience and connections than I do.”

Hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, Yue Linger’s beautiful eyes flickered slightly, “What do you mean?”

“I’d like to ask Yue to help me find some Talisman Masters, and then have Yue manage them, such as checking the quality of their Talismans, arranging their drawing schedules, and assigning them tasks. How does that sound?”

“You want me to?”

“Yes.”

“Why do you trust me so much? Aren’t you afraid I’ll mess up your Talismans?”

Jiang Cheng smiled confidently, “So, Yue, would you mess them up?”

“I…”

Yue Linger bit her lower lip lightly, knowing she couldn’t refuse Jiang Cheng.

If she refused Jiang Cheng, he could easily find a more experienced Talisman Master to replace her.

“I have no problem with it,” Yue Linger said.

Jiang Cheng nodded, “Regarding the treatment of other Talisman Masters, I was thinking of keeping our previous agreement of a fifty-fifty split, and I’ll hand it all to Yue, who can then pay them. Does that sound good?”

“No,” Yue Linger said.

Jiang Cheng stroked his chin, “What if we increase it a bit more…”

Yue Linger spoke earnestly, “No, no need to increase. Taking fifty percent is too much for me; I only want thirty percent, but I have a condition.”

“Please, go ahead, Yue,” Jiang Cheng said.

“In the future, if you have any Talismans, give them to me to draw first.”

Jiang Cheng was taken aback and then nodded, “Of course, as long as you’re willing.”

Yue Linger heaved a huge sigh of relief.

In this deal, she went from fifty down to thirty percent, which may seem like a loss, but in reality, she had secured the right to a long-term partnership with Jiang Cheng’s future prospects unlimited.

“I also have a condition,” Jiang Cheng said.

“Go on.”

“I’ll give you forty percent, and the other Talisman Masters will get thirty percent, you’ll take a ten-percent cut. Of course, if you draw them yourself, you’ll take the full forty percent.”

“No, no, thirty percent is already enough,” Yue Linger was well aware of the profits from Fishing Talisman, and thirty percent was actually quite a lot.

Jiang Cheng explained, “It’s okay for the other Talisman Masters to take thirty percent, but you’re different. You have the additional workload of management, which is harder, so you should get more.”

Yue Linger fixed her gaze on Jiang Cheng, struggling for a long while before reluctantly nodding her head.

It was a situation she couldn’t help!

He was gentle and considerate.

She simply couldn’t resist his requests!
