Chapter 1172: Chapter 1172: Bait

Han Jing blinked, realizing that this was actually a good idea. Ming Qianyi truly lived up to being a businessman. She had merely handed him a coffee pot, and he immediately thought of the potential for promotion. As a new beverage, coffee offered different flavors that could be blended, making it more versatile than tea.

Of course, this wasn’t the main point. The key was if a café themed restaurant was promoted, it could be established not just on Minghan Island. With Ming Qianyi’s connections and abilities, he could certainly expand it to other islands.

This café shared a concept akin to a teahouse. In this space, information lagged behind, so teahouses were sources of various rumors. With Ming Qianyi’s shrewdness, he must have already realized this.

After all, if he simply opened a teahouse, it lacked novelty. Other islands might not accept the Island Master of Minghan Island doing business on their turf, but coffee, as a new drink, could be innovatively modified with more varieties. Furthermore, Han Jing had in her mind a series of ideas for constructing cafés, ensuring that Ming Qianyi’s concept could be executed more perfectly.

When Ming Qianyi mentioned it, Han Jing thought of all possible angles, even guessing some of Ming Qianyi’s intentions. She initially didn’t want to fall into this trap, but the allure was too compelling.

She didn’t need money, but she needed information.

In the Futu Realm, she lacked connections and power. Just a few of them going against Ningxi Island was a fool’s dream.

Unless Su Yu could rapidly reach Divine Level and even approach a peak state. But this wasn’t something achieved overnight, which is why she planned to stop and focus on cultivation for a while. With their current strength, they had no way of establishing themselves in the Futu Realm. Not to mention whether they could confront Ningxi Island in the end, the mere thought of leaving the Futu Realm was already a huge challenge.

So their journey wasn’t just about finding someone. With Shi Qi’s character, she likely kept everything to herself to prevent them from overthinking, willing to pay any price to protect their safety.

Han Jing was determined not to let Shi Qi sacrifice herself for them, so confronting Ningxi Island was imperative.

And if they truly pursued this path, she needed a source of information.

Relying on themselves would be exceedingly difficult, but leveraging Ming Qianyi’s power was different. Although Ming Qianyi was only an Island Master of the Thirty-two Islands of the Human Domain, he was astute, and his connections in the Futu Realm were formidable. In the Lower Three Domains, he should be quite accomplished, and as for the Upper Three Realms... Han Jing still had Xiaoqi as her helper. With Xiaoqi’s aid, even expanding Ming Qianyi’s café to Phoenix Island wouldn’t be a problem!

In Han Jing’s mind, thousands of little figures argued back and forth, but she had already made up her mind. Ming Qianyi’s idea wasn’t just good, it was extremely, extremely good; so tempting that she simply couldn’t and didn’t want to refuse it.
