Chapter 683 - 287: Cyan Python Becomes a Jiao, Two Golden Core Favors, Joys and Sorrows of the Mortal World
Thanks to the Patriarch who bestowed each person a Tier Two Spirit-devouring Insect.
Along with the Patriarch’s Ghost Servant Qiuchan.
The Fu Family, in this battle to besiege the Southern Barbarians, captured more heads of the Southern Barbarians than any other Noble Family could hope for.
Fu Changsheng accepted the storage bag, nodding slightly:
"Yongshang, after three days, take out all the Spirit Pills we’ve been holding back over the years and put them up for sale, marking them out. For the compatriots who died in the chaos, the Fu Family will offer a 12% discount on all Spirit Pills to express our condolences."
This chaos.
Many Loose Cultivators probably seized the opportunity to plunder quite a few good things.
Moreover.
Many cultivators were also injured in this chaos.
So whether it’s Healing Elixirs or ones that enhance cultivation, they will undoubtedly sell well. And since the shops of other Noble Families probably have no stock, it’s hard for the Fu Family’s business not to do well.
Fu Yongshang’s eyes lit up upon hearing this:
"Patriarch, I will get to work immediately."
"Hmm, I will make a trip to the World Suppression Bureau."
Once Fu Changsheng left.
The puzzled Fu Yongyun couldn’t help but speak:
"Elder Yongshang, logically, right now Spirit Pills in the Marketplace should be scarce and in high demand, and our store should be raising prices to sell them. Why is the Patriarch selling them at a discount? Isn’t real silver more important than reputation?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Yongshang.
Smiled and shook his head.
He picked up a pastry from the coffee table, ate a piece, and then said:
"Yongyun, go outside for a walk, observe more and listen more. Once our shop opens, if you still don’t understand, come ask me then."
This chaos.
Everyone suffered heavy losses, even casualties.
If the Fu Family were to carry on business as usual, they would undoubtedly draw others’ resentment.
The most important thing in doing business is reputation and character.
If the Fu Family were to be labeled as profiting from disaster, it would be hard to attract customers again in the future.
The Patriarch’s move.
Not only can it ensure that the pills piled in the Storage Room sell well, but it also earns a good reputation, benefiting the Fu Family’s future business greatly, and it’s an excellent plan for establishing the family’s prestige.
It’s truly killing three birds with one stone.
....
After Fu Changsheng left his shop, he headed straight for the World Suppression Bureau, which had already ordered that no one in the Marketplace could go out for a month.
This time, the Marketplace had numerous spies from the Yinan Tribe.
Clearly.
The World Suppression Bureau intended to take this opportunity to identify all the spies and eliminate them to prevent future troubles.
At the marketplace entrance.
Loose Cultivators were still carrying the heads of the Southern Barbarians, queuing to exchange for rewards.
As the Eighth-Grade Family Head, Fu Changsheng naturally didn’t need to queue and walked directly through the crowd towards the Main Hall.
The Loose Cultivators who had queued all day couldn’t help but envy:
"No wonder everyone wants to establish a Noble Family; look at how those from a Noble Family act without so many restrictions like us. Ah, if only we could establish a Ninth-Grade Noble Family."
"I heard the Patriarch of the Fu Family attained the Eighth-Grade status by pulling up four children within the clan who were also cultivators. Brother Qiao, haven’t you fathered more than a dozen children? If you take the Fu Family Patriarch as a model, you might also become a Ninth-Grade Family Head one day."
Upon hearing this.
Everyone laughed out loud immediately.
But Qiao Daniu puffed up his chest and said in a gruff voice:
"What are you laughing at? A person needs to have their own belief to live. If my generation of the Qiao Family can’t establish a Noble Family, then what about my grandchildren? Or their grandchildren? As long as each generation works towards this goal, there will one day be a Noble Family!"
Upon hearing this.
Everyone then closed their mouths.
But some couldn’t stand Qiao Daniu’s ambition and snorted:
"Talking about your posterity, a single disaster could wipe out your Qiao Family, how naive and laughable."
...
When Fu Changsheng entered the Main Hall of the World Suppression Bureau.
He noticed that in just a few days, the previously collapsed city walls and buildings of the World Suppression Bureau had been restored to their former glory.
In the Main Hall.
He saw both the Governor of Jingzhou Myriarch Office and Luo Haitang seated side by side at the top. He was the only one summoned this time:
"Greetings to Governor and Elder Luo."
"Hmm."
The Governor from Jingzhou Myriarch Office, surnamed Li, looked forty or fifty years old, dressed as a scholar, also a Fake Core Cultivator. He gestured for Fu Changsheng to sit down before saying:
"That Wanning Marketplace was able to be preserved was all thanks to Fu Clan Leader’s forewarning. Otherwise, after the Southern Barbarians destroyed the Teleportation Array, not only would the Wanning Marketplace have suffered, but the South Huai Family would also likely have been looted, with unimaginable consequences."
"Fu Clan Leader, you have made a significant contribution this time."
"Do you need me to recommend you to the Court for merit?"
While speaking.
Luo Haitang, who was drinking tea, looked up at Fu Changsheng.
Fu Changsheng quickly considered.
Mulling over Governor Li’s intent.
With the Yinan Tribe’s intrusion, if the Court pursued this matter, the World Suppression Bureau and the Seventh-Grade Luo Family managing South Huai Prefecture would at least be accused of negligence.
Governor Li asking this.
Clearly had no intention of reporting it.
Fu Changsheng quickly stood, cupped his hands, and said:
"The reason the Yinan Tribe could infiltrate the Marketplace successfully was because Governor Li and Elder Luo had laid out a big plan, intending to lure the Yinan Tribe in to catch them. My communication to Master Xu was redundant, not a meritorious act. The true credit belongs to Lord Li and Elder Luo, who strategized brilliantly behind the scenes."
