Chapter 152 Mutated Fire Cloud Chain
Seeing Gou Hu speechless, Gou Qiang breathed a sigh of relief. His younger brother was restless to begin with, and if he really wanted to learn some powerful skills, he would have to eat peanuts sooner or later.

As for how Yan Xu developed such skills and what he had experienced, Gou Qiang didn't want to think about it, nor did he dare to ask, so he quickly changed the subject.

"I guess Ma Dajun won't dare to mess around again this time. If he's smart, he'll come and apologize."

"Well, if he comes, you can try to see if you can use his way to get involved in the real estate industry." Yan Xu was badly hurt by the mortgage in his previous life, so he has always been obsessed with the real estate industry in this life, so he said.

At that time, the real estate market had not yet become completely hot. After all, it had just experienced the cold winter of the 1990s. At that time, supply exceeded demand, so houses were difficult to sell. Therefore, most people did not realize how heavy a burden they would bear in the future and what they had missed.

The problem is that Yan Xu knows how much money the real estate industry will make in the next decade or so. Even though the country has intervened and regulated many times, it has not been able to suppress this hot upward trend, until young people are forced to lose everything and the population begins to decline.

"Okay, I don't think it will be a big problem. Ma Dajun dare not refuse." Gou Qiang nodded and said.

Although he didn't know why Yan Xu was obsessed with real estate, the Yan family's business had increased several times over the past two years under the other party's operation, and the two brothers had also benefited a lot, so he didn't ask why, but just nodded in agreement.

Ma Dajun had already taken the money and ignored his beautiful wife who was crying and making a fuss.

Just kidding, his wife is pretty, but as for her character, let me put it this way, if anything happens to him, it will most likely be like a quick funeral, and then he will have to find another wife. He is familiar with this process, so he will never give the other party a chance and would rather spend money to avoid disaster.

However, Ma Dajun was a little hesitant about going directly to the house, so he asked someone to use his connections and asked the mayor of the other town to invite him to the private restaurant.

Yan Xu gave face and took Gou Qiang with him.

As soon as he sat down, Ma Dajun stood up and drank three cups as punishment, which made the mayor stunned. He wondered what the bully from the neighboring town had done today and why his trouser legs kept shaking.

"I was blind and didn't recognize a great man. I will drink three cups of wine as an apology. In addition, the five hundred thousand was borrowed from me before, and I will return it in full now. If you need anything in the future, I will definitely support you." After Ma Dajun drank three cups of white wine, his greasy face turned red. Then, taking advantage of the alcohol to give himself courage, he took out a large bag of money.

He said he was paying back the money, but everyone present knew what was going on, especially the mayor. His hand holding the wine trembled a little. He immediately realized that it was not his trouser legs shaking, but his legs and courage that were shaking.

"Forget about paying back the money. I'm planning to open a construction company recently. If you are interested, this money can be converted into shares." Yan Xu said lightly, not taking the 500,000 yuan seriously.

"That's great. I'll handle the formalities for you and help you find the project. Just do a good job in the future." The mayor, who was afraid of being unable to handle the situation, said hurriedly when he saw that the situation was beginning to ease.

He now understood whether Ma Dajun really came to apologize or he was just trying to curry favor with him. It seemed that he still underestimated this young man Yan Xu. Someone who could scare Ma Dajun so much that his legs trembled must be an extraordinary person. Therefore, for fear of making any more mistakes, he hurriedly continued to speak along the lines of Yan Xu.

Ma Dajun didn't dare to have any objection at this time, and quickly agreed, and at the same time he felt relieved, at least he bought an identity of his own.

Although the mayor drank a lot, he did not delay his business at all. He took advantage of the alcohol to take the two of them to complete the procedures.

Yan Xu also invested 500,000 yuan in the newly established construction company, but he held 90% of the shares. Not only Ma Dajun, but even the mayor thought it was natural.

Although Yan Xu coveted the real estate industry, he actually knew nothing about it, so he could only follow the previous methods, such as Gou Qiang in the supermarket, Lao Ma in the factory, Ye Mei in the private restaurant, and now Ma Dajun from the construction company. Poor Ma Dajun just bought a deputy position with money, and he was busy gathering a group of skilled workers to grab work in the town and the market, so that the newly established construction company would not be left alone.

The main reason was that he was afraid that Yan Xu would be angry. In case he disliked him, he had to prepare everything including cement and oil drums in advance.

After establishing the construction company, Yan Xu realized that he had been thinking too simply. He could not get big projects, and even if he did, he could not do them. He had to snatch all the small projects. After all, there were so many people doing the work, so why should he choose him?

Fortunately, he knew how to hand things over to people who were knowledgeable about the business. Although Ma Dajun was a material supplier, he was also familiar with the construction site and had a good reputation. If he wanted to grab the work, most people would not dare to go against him, so the start was relatively smooth.

However, relying solely on Ma Dajun, he can only wander around the city. If he really wants to become bigger and stronger, he needs to find more talents.

After handing over the tasks, Yan Xu quickly lost interest and continued to study incense and ritual instruments. After all, working on a construction site was not as interesting as that.

Top-quality incense is extremely pure, so it can be transformed into any attribute without loss, which means it can perfectly imitate most treasures. Unfortunately, there are too few of them, and the requirements for the carrier are extremely high.

Medium-grade incense is not too bad, but the requirements for the carrier are not low. If his Mo Dao had not killed hundreds of people and was not used by Guandi when he descended, it would not be able to withstand the medium-grade incense. Therefore, Yan Xu planned to use low-grade incense to refine the magic weapon this time.

Yan Xu discovered that the best objects to imitate for incense and ritual instruments are treasures in the hands of immortals and Buddhas. This is mainly because incense and ritual instruments are simply imitated with incense, and the immortals and Buddhas who enjoy the worship of incense are more closely related and easier to resonate with.

But this does not mean that other things cannot be imitated. For example, Yan Xu’s imitation target this time is the Fire Cloud Chain.

The Fire Cloud Chain originated from The Legend of Sword and Fairy. In his previous life, younger people probably wouldn’t have even heard of it.

But in Yan Xu's opinion, this book is indeed wonderful and left a deep impression on him, so the first thing he imitated was the magic weapon in it.

The closer the imitation to nature is to the original form, the better the load-bearing effect will be, so Yan Xu got a chain used to lift molten iron in an old steel mill.

This thing was about as thick as his calf, black and very heavy. He didn't know if it could be made smaller after being shaped by incense.

Compared with high-grade and medium-grade incense, the use of low-grade incense made Yan Xu feel a little uncomfortable.

Top-grade incense is very pure and works like a god when used. Although mid-grade incense is not as pure, it is also under control. Only low-grade incense is mixed with too many distractions and desires, which makes Yan Xu feel upset. The more he uses, the greater the impact. But he needs to concentrate on visualizing the magic weapon to shape his body, which makes him feel more and more tired.

Fortunately, Yan Xu had experienced so much and his mentality was no longer the same as before. He persisted to the end, but problems still arose because he was distracted.

Human thoughts are difficult to control, and affected by the many distracting thoughts of the inferior incense, the Fire Cloud Chain that finally took shape was not a red chain like he had imagined, but a black and red substance full of cracks like semi-solidified lava, with a hook at one end, which was obviously mutated.
