Chapter 90: Invitation (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
“Thirteenth Uncle, are you saying that the Yang Family Patriarch has broken through to the Purple Mansion Stage?”
Shuanghu Island.
Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Xianhe in surprise and exclaimed.
“This is the invitation given to us by the Yang family, how can it be fake?”
As he spoke, Chen Xianhe handed over the invitation from the Yang family.
He opened the invitation card and saw the words “Yang Linyuan’s Purple Mansion Banquet” written on it.
Yang Linyuan was the name of the Yang Family Patriarch.
It was said that he was already close to 200 years old. He did not expect that the other party would actually break through to the Purple Prefecture Realm when his lifespan was approaching.
For some reason, Chen Daoxuan could smell a storm coming from this small invitation.
The Yang family was the second largest family in Guang ’an Prefecture.
Even though they were no match for the Zhou family in terms of high-level cultivators, the Yang family’s foundation was definitely not something that ordinary Foundation Establishment families could compare to.
The Yang family had a population of nearly ten million and hundreds of thousands of cultivators. They also monopolized the ship business of the entire Guang ‘an Prefecture. There were nearly a thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators in the family.
Now that the Yang Family Patriarch had broken through to the Purple Mansion Stage, it would undoubtedly break the dominance of the Zhou Family in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
Although the Zhou Clan had nearly ten Zifu Disciples…
Not only had the Zhou Clan Patriarch reached the peak Zifu Disciple stage, but the Zhou Clan’s Chosen, Zhou Mubai, was also a legendary sword cultivator. His battle prowess far surpassed that of cultivators of the same level.
However, the Yang family had never expected to rely on them to compete with the Zhou family.
For so many years, the Yang family had been seeking to establish the Guang ’an Immortal Alliance. The Yang family would take the lead and unite with many small families in Guang’ an Prefecture to build another immortal city to compete with the Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal City.
This was because the Yang family had long been dissatisfied with the Zhou family monopolizing most of the profits in Guang ‘an City.
After all, the Yang family was a large family with a population of nearly ten million.
The Yang family had a large population, which meant that they had to consume a lot of resources.
In recent years, the Yang family had been feeling more and more powerless, especially after the fall of the Southern Mountain’s City. The resources from the Yun Nation had been reduced again and again in Cang Prefecture.
It made the Yang family even worse.
He seemed to have thought of something.
Chen Daoxuan’s heart skipped a beat and he said thoughtfully, “”The Zhou Clan is preparing to hold an auction, and the Yang Clan is going to hold a Zifu Disciple Banquet. How interesting.”
” No!” Chen Xianhe shook his head.” A battle between big clans is not something that small clans like us can participate in.”
However, it’s highly possible that the Yang family wants to use the Zifu Banquet to bring up the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance.”
“The Zhou and Yang families are at loggerheads. Guang ‘an Prefecture is going to enter a troubled period.”
“Yes, I am!”
Chen Xianhe sighed. It was not easy to settle the Mo family.
The Zhou and Yang families had a new wave.
Fortunately, these two clans were fighting. As long as the Chen Clan did not actively participate, it would not affect a Qi Refinement Clan like the Chen Clan.
Moreover…
After all, the Zhou and Yang families still had the Qian Yuan Sword Sect above their heads. Even if they fought, it would at most be a secret fight. It was impossible to fight openly.
From the looks of it, the Chen family was even less in danger.
” No matter what, our Chen family should first get our hands on the wandering cultivator market’s magical equipment market. This is the most practical benefit.”
“That’s right.”
Chen Xianhe nodded and smiled.” In the past few months when 1 was in Guang ‘an Prefecture, I found that many magical equipment stores have closed down. There were originally more than forty magical equipment stores, but now there are less than ten that are struggling to survive.
I reckon that after this year, these magic tool shops will also close their doors.”
Finally, he heard some good news. Chen Daoxuan smiled and said, “”I thought they would hold on for a while longer. 1 didn’t expect them to surrender so quickly.”
“Do you think that these magic tool shops have all the advantages of the Chen family?” Chen Xianhe shook his head.
Most of their magic tools were second-hand magic tools bought from the descendants of their families. They wouldn’t use them for long. If they couldn’t sell them for a long time, the magic tool’s spirituality would completely dissipate, and they would become a pile of scrap metal in their hands.
How many families can withstand such losses?”
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan nodded. “”That’s true.”
The reason why the large clans looked down on the low-end magical equipment market was because the profits were too low.
Moreover, if the stock was held for too long, the spiritual aura of the magic tool would be damaged, and the gains would not make up for the losses.
Not every family was like the Chen family, who could build a factory to produce flying swords and obtain cheap raw materials from the merfolk clan.
If not for these two unique conditions.
It was impossible for the Chen family to obtain such high profits from the low-end magical equipment business.
In the eyes of the outside world.
The magic tool business in the wandering cultivator market run by the Chen family was entirely earned from hard labor.
They relied on exploiting the cultivators with poor talent to support the cultivators with good talent.
Such behavior.
It would be difficult for other families to follow suit.
Cultivators were also humans. Humans had desires. No group of people was willing to sacrifice themselves to help others, even if they came from the same family and had the same bloodline.
There were hundreds of thousands of cultivators in the Zhou Clan, and cultivators with poor aptitude were the majority.
How many of them would be willing to sacrifice their Dao path to help an elite clansman like Zhou Mubai?
Almost none!
Even the matter of the Zhou Clan distinguishing the treatment of ordinary disciples and elite disciples had caused unrest in the clan, and complaints were heard everywhere.
Not to mention sacrificing one side to help the other.
If the Zhou Clan really dared to do this, countless traitors would appear in minutes and betray the clan to become itinerant cultivators.
Therefore, he had no choice.
Even if the outside world knew that the Chen family was using this method to earn profits from the wandering cultivator market, they could not imitate it.
They knew that their families could not be so united.
” Right now, the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop is steadily selling around 600 flying swords every month, and it’s far from reaching the market saturation point.”
Chen Xianhe sighed.” It’s a pity that Chen Daochuan and the others are too young. Otherwise, the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop would have been able to continue operating if they had taken my place.
We can also monopolize the market for magical artifacts in the wandering cultivator market as soon as possible.”
” Thirteenth Uncle, don’t be anxious. The wandering cultivator market will be ours sooner or later. Now, we just need to be steady and steady. The family’s days will get better and better.”
“Yes.”
Chen Xianhe had never been so confident about the Chen Family’s future.
Two years ago, he could only guard the 8,000 spiritual stones accumulated by the ancestors of the Chen family in the clan treasury. He did not know where the family would go next.
However, in just two years, not only had the Chen family expanded to eleven cultivators, but they had also taken over the magical equipment market in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market.
Just this alone would bring the Chen family more than 100,000 spiritual stones a year.
Not to mention that they were still secretly trading with the merfolk clan.
“Right,”
Chen Xianhe said seriously,” Have you selected the latest batch of immortal seedlings?”
Chen Daoxuan knew that Thirteenth Uncle was referring to the nearly ten thousand children of the Chen family born from the first batch of women from the Yun Nation.
“Thirteenth Uncle, don’t worry. This matter concerns the foundation of my Chen family. I’ve been watching it personally…”
He paused.”There are a total of 9877 children of the Chen family. A total of 108 Immortal seedlings have been selected. This batch of Immortal seedlings is not even two years old yet.
I’ve already instructed Chen Zhi to take good care of this batch of immortal seedlings and their parents.”
“Good!”
Chen Xianhe nodded.” We must give the parents who gave birth to Xianmiao the best treatment. Only then can we encourage the other male descendants of the Chen family to have more children.”
” Don’t worry. I plan to allocate 10,000 spirit stones this year to encourage the family to have children.”
“That’s good, that’s good.”
Chen Xianhe nodded.
Chen Daoxuan was more thoughtful than him in this matter, so he had nothing to worry about..
