Chapter 519: Yun Wanshang: If I Had Brought Him Back to the Qingyun Sect at That Time (2)
Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows raised as he said,
He was naturally aware of Great Dream Immortal City, one of the three great immortal cities in Jiang Country.
However, compared to Jiuxiao Immortal City and Azure Phoenix Immortal City, Great Dream Immortal City was somewhat lacking and much more low-profile.
Located in the northern reaches of Jiang Country, set within Great Dream Marsh, it was not only remote but also had a much harsher environment.
It was nowhere near the sanctuary for loose cultivators that is Azure Phoenix Immortal City.
Moreover, the city lords of Great Dream Immortal City didn’t have a reputation as resounding as that of Azure Phoenix Immortal, the number one loose cultivator in Jiang Country.
“Indeed, I’ve heard about this from the elders as well,”
“The two city lords of Great Dream Immortal City are a dual cultivation couple, both in the Mid Nascent Soul Stage, but they cultivate a dual cultivation technique that makes them a match for many cultivators in the Core Formation Late Stage.”
“It’s precisely because of this that they could establish Great Dream Immortal City.”
Xu Renguang remarked thus.As he spoke, he complimented, “Perhaps in the future, Lu Mountain Lord and Lady Lu could break through Core Formation like the two city lords of Great Dream, becoming famous throughout Jiang Country!”
“Xu Daoist jests; the achievements I have today are already more than I could have hoped for, thanks to fortune and chance. I dare not entertain such lofty aspirations,”
Lu Changsheng said with a wry smile, shaking his head.
He didn’t continue with the idle chat and instead said with a serious expression, “The reason I’ve summoned you all is to discuss a matter of importance.”
“Although last night’s incident with the robber cultivators was contained, it still had a significant impact on the marketplace and requires a plan of action.”
“Moreover, I was thinking we could use this opportunity to hold an auction to slightly increase the fame and foot traffic of our Red Leaf Valley Market.”
Lu Changsheng said aloud.
As a marketplace established upon a second-rank middle-grade spiritual land, Red Leaf Valley’s annual income was noticeably low.
Thus, after discussing with Lu Miaoge last night, he thought they could use this chance to boost the reputation and foot traffic of Red Leaf Valley.
After all, Red Leaf Valley Marketplace was also a foundation of their family business, and he felt it was necessary to invest effort into it.
“You can decide on the measures and auction, Changsheng,”
Lu Yuanzhong promptly stated his stance.
Nowadays, he increasingly deferred to Lu Changsheng’s opinions.
After all, Lu Miaoge’s Foundation Establishment was facilitated by Lu Changsheng, and his injuries had been treated by both Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge.
Even the cultivation technique that now served as the foundation of his Qingzhu Mountain was provided by Lu Changsheng.
In such circumstances, he naturally knew what he should do.
Regardless of Lu Changsheng’s actions, he would not mistreat Qingzhu Mountain.
“That’s right, Lu Daoist, you can make the decisions on this matter,”
Bai Yunyang also promptly remarked from the side.@@novelbin@@
Seeing that both Qingzhu Mountain and Hundred Birds Lake were of the same opinion, Patriarch Zheng of the Zheng Family naturally couldn’t object.
As for Xu Renguang, although he had come here and Wugong Ridge Zheng Family was a vassal to his Xu Family, in such circumstances, he couldn’t say much either. ℝäɴ𝔬ꞖЕ𝘴
In the end, they all deferred to Lu Changsheng to make the decision.
“Hmm…”
Lu Changsheng paused.
As for these matters, he had only discussed a rough idea with Lu Miaoge yesterday and had not yet come up with a detailed plan.
He then voiced his preliminary thoughts.
Compensate for the damage to the commercial street, and implement certain beneficial policies for the entire marketplace—such as entry fees, house rentals, and taxation, among other things.
Then, by generating buzz, they would hold an auction in half a year, with the aim of hosting one annually thereafter, to maintain the marketplace’s foot traffic and popularity.
After hearing this, Lu Yuanzhong, Bai Yunyang, and Xu Renguang all made certain additions based on the foundation laid out.
Their experiences in managing and growing their families made them more seasoned in this regard.
Regarding the shops in the merchant street that were damaged, compensation would be split according to the four families’ ownership stakes in the marketplace.
However, considering the heavy toll it took on Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge to suppress the robber cultivators last night, the Bai Family and the Zheng Family would each take on an extra ten percent of the cost.
After finalizing the details of the plan and the auction, the matter was brought to a conclusion.
As for the specific arrangements and implementation in the marketplace, there was no need for Lu Changsheng to worry further.
…
Several days later.
As the defensive formation of Red Leaf Valley Market opened, news about the five Core Formation robbers who made trouble in Red Leaf Valley Market and were suppressed by Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge quickly spread to the neighboring family forces and even throughout the entire Qingyun Region.
“Lu Changsheng of Blue Lake Mountain, who single-handedly suppressed three Core Formation members from the Yu Family and established the Blue Lake Mountain Lu Family three years ago, has now, along with his wife, suppressed five Core Formation robbers. It’s terrifying!”
“Is it true? Could it just be Lu Changsheng raising his profile through such means?”
“Right, they are only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, how could they possibly kill five Core Formation robbers!”
“Rumor has it that Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge practice a dual cultivation technique and their combat power rivals that of Great Cultivators in the Core Formation Late Stage, and with their combined secret techniques, they can even kill cultivators in the Core Formation Late Stage!”
“This previously insignificant son-in-law has grown to such an extent!”
“Talisman Formation arts, dual cultivation techniques… apart from False Core Immortals, it seems that ordinary Great Cultivators in the Core Formation Late Stage would not be a match for this couple, right?”
“The Lu Family of Blue Lake Mountain, Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain…”
“I always felt that Lu Changsheng had uncommon fortune, already capable of suppressing three Core Formation members from the Yu Family using Talisman Formation arts just after establishing his Foundation. To think he possesses such a supreme legacy!”
“It seems the Lu Family of Blue Lake Mountain is on the rise!”
Many surrounding family forces and even loose cultivators were all abuzz with discussions about Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge.
This incident also reached Qingyun Sect.
“To have wiped out five Core Formation robber cultivators! And among them were even two in the Core Formation Late Stage…”
“It’s hard to believe that, in just a few years, Lu Daoist has grown to such a state.”
Zhao Qingqing and Han Lin had also received this news and were utterly astounded.
They are still in the Qi Refinement Realm, striving towards Foundation Establishment.
What do you think?
