Chapter 41 Evil Faced Flying Eagle
This evening.
The shopkeepers of the major shops in Fang City went to the Maple Leaf Mansion on the top of Zhuye Mountain to participate in the discussion meeting held by the Huang family.
An hour later.
Mu Xiuyun returned to the shop, found Lu Changan immediately, and explained the situation.
"The Jiexiu who attacked me was named "Evil Faced Flying Eagle", and he ravaged other cities many years ago. This person was hunted down by the Foundation Establishment Stage, and he hid for several years after being injured, and unexpectedly appeared around Zhuye Mountain."
The first news that Mu Xiuyun said was exactly what Lu Changan was concerned about.
"Evil Faced Flying Eagle?"
Lu Changan remembered this name, and was able to escape from the pursuit of the foundation building. It was by no means an ordinary nine-level qi refining. No wonder he was able to push Mu Xiuyun to a desperate situation.
Afterwards, Mu Xiuyun mentioned the second thing:
"For the two merchants that were attacked, the Huang family will provide compensation and waive the store's management fees for the next ten years."
Ten-year management fee, the value is not low.
Maple Leaf Huang's family expressed somewhat.
After all, the attack was not in Fangshi, it was some distance away.
Lu Changan thought to himself: "The merchant has compensation, and those casual cultivators who died tragically will be settled once and for all."
This is the law of the jungle in the world of cultivating immortals.
Most of the merchants in Fang City have powerful backgrounds, and some even dare not offend the Maple Leaf Huang family easily.
"In addition, the Huang family plans to strengthen Fangshi's formations and law enforcement monks, and actively eradicate robbery repairs. Due to the increase in expenses, starting from next year, the management fees of merchants will be increased by 30%."
Mu Xiuyun's clear and joyful voice was tinged with sarcasm.
Increase management fees?
Lu Changan couldn't help admiring that the Huang family would really take advantage of the opportunity.
Fang City has just opened for two years, in order to attract popularity, the management fee is very low.
Seeing the increase in traffic in the city, most stores are starting to make a profit. The Huang family raised the management fees of the merchants by taking advantage of the threat to the safety of Fangshi through "robbing and repairing".
The situation is indeed different now.
In the past, it was opened in Fangshi, begging people to come and do business.
Now the popularity is increasing year by year, and some people are squeezing their scalps to come in.
The Huang family made a public statement: If you are not satisfied with the increase in management fees, you can buy the store at the current market price and give compensation.
It can be seen from this that the Huang family is optimistic about the future prospects of Fang City.
…
Back in the room, Lu Changan fell into deep thought.
He thought of shopkeeper Xu and Mrs. Zheng in Fangshi a year ago, and tried every means to get him out.
Lu Changan and Mu Xiuyun teamed up, and the business of the talisman shop is getting better and better. The quality and types of talismans are quite competitive.
In addition to the Feiyue Lake aquatic products and the copper mining area, the Mu family has another cash cow, and the development is getting smoother.
As long as one of them is eliminated, this momentum can be curbed a little bit.
If Lu Changan doesn't enter the oil and salt industry, he won't leave the market, so he has no chance at all.
Mu Xiuyun is different, occasionally going back and forth between her family and Fangshi.
Mu Xiuyun has a relatively high level of cultivation and has a magic weapon of the flying boat. It is not easy to start, but at least she has a chance.
…
The peak of Zhuye Mountain.
Maple Leaf Mansion, inside a hall.
"Yu'er, you have gone too far this time."
An ancient man with protruding cheekbones, sitting cross-legged on the futon at the top of the temple, with a worried expression on his face:
"The merchants doing business in Fangshi do not have a fuel-efficient lamp, so it is a bad idea to attack them. A little girl, do you need to personally target and let Fangshi bear the risk of being stigmatized?"
"Uncle Ling is right."
Huang Yu looked respectful, and explained: "I didn't personally participate in this matter, I just provided information to the 'Evil Faced Flying Eagle'. That guy became interested in a rich and beautiful female cultivator like Miss Mu, and unexpectedly Do it yourself."
Mentioning this matter, Huang Yu's eyes flashed a gloomy look.
He wanted to make a comprehensive plan to capture Mu Xiuyun, and in the name of Jiexiu, he wanted to take advantage of the Mu family and Lu Changan.
However, "Evil Faced Flying Eagle" shot confidently, misjudged the quality of the talisman in Mu Xiuyun's hand, and suffered a small loss at first, and Fei Diao was injured by the talisman.
Because of becoming angry from embarrassment, she even destroyed flowers with her hands.
It would be fine if Mu Xiuyun was killed, but she survived and urged the merchants to unite to put pressure on the Huang family.
The ancient and rare old man snorted coldly, and said lightly: "You can do it yourself. The prosperity of this square city is related to the plan of my Huang family for the next hundred years."
…
Since Mu Xiuyun was attacked, the Huang family has stepped up patrols and law enforcement around Fang City, and even dealt with several cases of murder and seizure of treasures.
Around Zhuye Mountain, the security environment has been improved.
The flow of people in Fangshi has grown steadily.
The business of each store is getting more and more prosperous, and the increase in management fees is not so repulsive.
Three years later.
Lu Changan was promoted to the sixth level of Qi Refining, and his cultivation level was raised to a higher level.
It was about the same as expected, and it took a total of six years.
The aura of plants and trees in Fangshi only increased the efficiency of his cultivation.
However, the cycle of time cannot be changed.
Lu Changan has a lot of free time every day, practicing, drawing talismans, body training, alchemy, feeding spiritual pets...
The days are both fulfilling and leisurely.
During the four or five years since he came to Zhuye Mountain, Lu Changan never left Fangshi.
I don't know who it is.
Give him the nickname "Turtle Talisman Master", and he became the talk of some monks in the city before tea and after drinking.
Lu Changan doesn't care about this, and when he wins the alchemy and Yuanying stage in the future, those who laugh at him will probably turn into a pile of loess.
…
In the past two or three years, apart from his practice and hobbies, Lu Changan's life has undergone some changes.
On this day, Lu Changan was full of energy, got up from the bed, and got dressed.
Beside the bed, there was a pile of nun's clothes scattered.
Long skirt in green gauze, blue apron, white silk socks, exquisitely embroidered shoes...
In the bed, there is a dark fragrance filling the nose.
A beautiful body with icy skin and undulating curves, revealing a slender and beautiful leg like condensed snow.
Oh, this is the eldest lady's boudoir.
Mu Xiuyun opened her star eyes, her face showing a trace of fatigue, looking at Lu Changan, who was alive and well, with a bit of resentment in her eyes.
There is a saying: There are only exhausted cattle, but no plowed fields.
However, this sentence does not apply to Lu Changan who is practicing Evergreen Kungfu.
"Lu Lang, I need to wear clothes, so don't peek!"
Behind her came the rustling sound of the beautiful lady putting on her clothes.
Lu Changan came to the window, his thoughts were in a trance, and he felt that these nourishing two or three years had passed so quickly.
three years ago.
After the "resurrection" healing, the eldest lady gradually let go of her reserved status, and sometimes she looked at her and took the initiative to discuss Fu Yi.
One time when drawing amulets together, she confided the truth: her life was given by Lu Changan, and even if Lu Changan wanted to leave in the future, she would be willing.
Speaking of this.
If Lu Changan refuses again, he is not a normal man, not even a eunuch.
Lonely men and orphans get along with each other for many years, under the fire, the two people who like each other sleep in the same bed naturally.
In every corner of the eldest lady's boudoir, there are traces of the two of them.
Of course, no matter how affectionate.
Lu Changan is calm in his heart, using the secret method in "Secrets of Locking the Dragon", it can preserve the dragon spirit without losing it, and will never leave any heirs.
…
Early morning.
On the first floor of the store, Mu Ershun and Mu Shan sorted out the goods at the counter.
Now, both apprentices are able to refine some first-order talismans, but the success rate is not high, fluctuating above and below the guarantee line.
Mu Xiuyun patrolled the store, checking for omissions and filling vacancies.
Lu Changan doesn't care about the store business, he is going to visit the stall area of Sanxiu.
In his previous life, he heard that some monks picked up leaks in the stall area and bought self-obscuring or sealed magic weapons.
Therefore, during these years in Fangshi, he often visited the stall area to see if he could find any leaks.
Anyway, there is a lot of time, so try your luck.
In a few years, he really let him pick up the leak, and found a fragment of a magic weapon the size of a handkerchief.
It is shaped like a piece of cowhide, impervious to water and fire, and the material is flexible.
Magic weapon, at least the corresponding alchemy period.
Even if it is a fragment of a magic weapon, it is useless with Lu Changan's cultivation, so it can be used as a heart guard and stuck to the inner lining of his outer robe.
I walked around the stall area, but there was nothing to gain.
Went to sit in the teahouse again, and heard the discussion of many monks.
"In the auction held by Zhuye Mountain this time, I heard that a Foundation Establishment Pill will be auctioned?"
"Zhu Ji Dan? Is it true or not?"
"Not only the Foundation Establishment Pill, but also the top-grade spiritual tool, the Life Extension Pill..."
Early in the morning, the teahouse was much busier than usual.
Lu Changan sipped his tea, not surprised at the discussion about the auction and Zhu Jidan.
Businessmen in Fangshi knew about the auction a month in advance.
The Huang family once sent an invitation to Mu's Spirit Talisman Shop, hoping that the shop would come up with a batch of top-grade talismans for auction.
Maple Leaf Huang's family decided to hold a large-scale auction in Zhuye Mountain three months later.
There are indeed rumors of Zhu Jidan.
In addition, the Beastmaster Zhou family will sell a batch of high-quality spirit beasts in a concentrated manner.
For a while, the nearby Xiuxian family, and even the scattered cultivators and Zongmen monks farther away got wind.
"Zhu Ji Dan..."
Lu Changan took a sip of tea and sighed secretly.
After several rounds of foreshadowing, Zhuyeshanfang City will become the center of the wave.
This is also what the Huang family wants to achieve, to make Zhuyeshanfang City truly prosperous!
As the auction approaches.
The flow of people in Zhuyeshanfang City is increasing day by day.
Recently, Lu Changan even received inquiries from Zhao Siyao and Lin Yi.
After learning about the grand auction in Zhuye Mountain, these two friends are planning to come to participate.
