Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Chapter 232: Thunderous means, killing chickens to scare monkeys

For ten shops, the rent for one year is 5,000 yuan, and for ten consecutive years, the rent is 50,000 yuan for low-grade spiritual stones.

It doesn't sound like much, but now that you've made such a big bet before you've even seen the profits, aren't you afraid of losing everything?

Du Huating looked at Liu Hongye with doubts in his eyes. Is this guy crazy?

"Hahaha, okay. Fellow Taoist, you can go to the Luoshui River to choose a store soon. I guarantee you will be satisfied." Song Changsheng agreed regardless of what Liu Hongye thought.

But honestly speaking, according to his expectations, as long as the other party manages it properly, it is basically impossible to lose money, and it can even make a lot of money.

If it weren't for the family's limited strength, it would have been impossible for him to open so many shops in prime locations.

Seeing that the two of them had taken away ten shops as soon as they sang in harmony, Du Huating and Yu Chengshan immediately became anxious and hurriedly left the remaining two shops. Regardless of whether they made money or owed money, they had to get it first, and then they would lose it if they were too late.

At this point, the twelve shops have been divided between the two sides.

Song Changsheng immediately beamed, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to fellow Taoists, I promise you won't be disappointed."

"Hmph." Yu Chengshan snorted softly and turned away. No matter what the future profits of Fangshi were, they would be the ones who suffered anyway.

Song Changsheng didn't take it seriously either. He couldn't seize the opportunity given to you, and he can't blame anyone in the future.

"Fellow Taoists, you can go to the Luoshui River to choose a shop now, and you can move in at a later date. Although there is only a second-level high-grade formation there, our clan is confident that we can protect your safety."

Song Changsheng's tone was full of confidence. Since he dared to make this move, he naturally had this confidence.

The defensive formation on the banks of the Luoshui River was the [Tian Luo Water Covering Formation] that he personally arranged. The middle-grade spiritual weapon [Luo Tianwang] and the second-order high-grade magical weapon [Covering Water Mark] served as the formation eyes, integrating attack, defense, and trapping. As one body, it is not a problem to block three or five foundation-building monks.

What's more, he also left the [Black Starship] there, and with the cooperation of the quasi-celestial ship, unless the monks from the Zifu came in person, the city would be impregnable!

Everyone was unconvinced by Song Changsheng's words. If safety could not be guaranteed, they would have killed the Song family long ago.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Song, I wonder if consignments will be accepted at the auction?" Du Huating said suddenly.

Liu Hongye looked startled, and then secretly cursed himself for not thinking of this. The predecessor of Liuyun Sect was an exile from the north. He still had some heritage, but he didn't have many spiritual stones on hand.

Originally, he could still barely turn around, but he asked the Song family to break the situation and almost emptied most of the spiritual stone reserves. He planned to sell off the sect's heritage.

They are all for sale anyway, and the revenue from the auction will definitely be the largest.

Thinking of this, he quickly said: "I also have this intention."

The more treasures there are in the auction, the more beneficial it will be for the Song family. Song Changsheng naturally cannot refuse and said with a smile: "Of course you can. If there are treasures that need to be sent for auction, just bring them to the auction house directly. As long as they pass the appraisal, you can participate." For the auction, we only charge a 10% commission.”

Both of them showed joy in their eyes, bowed their hands to Song Changsheng, and then left happily.

"You are so happy to sell your property." Song Changsheng shook his head, with a look on his face that said, "I hate that iron cannot be transformed into steel."

But I don’t even think about who is the culprit that caused all this.

After sending a few people away, Song Changsheng, who was in a good mood, came to the family treasure house with his hands behind his back and humming a little tune.

For this auction, Song took out a lot of treasures from the bottom of the box, including third-level elixirs, ores, and so on.

Now that the auction is about to take place, he naturally wants to come over and take a look to avoid any mistakes...

Time flies, and the date for the auction is gradually approaching. Those who are interested find that Lingzhou is much more lively than before.

Especially along the Luoshui River, the major inns were already overcrowded, so the Song family had to urgently expand the hotel so that the monks who came to participate in the auction would not use the sky as their quilt and the earth as their bed.

Song Changsheng also led a large number of elites to Fangshi in advance to take charge.

Although the current market has just started, it has begun to take shape. In addition to the auction house, dozens of shops have begun operations.

Including but not limited to restaurants, wine shops, inns, weapon refining, elixirs, etc.

Among them, the shops with the Yinyue Clan emblem are the most numerous and in the best locations. They belong to the owner of this place, the Song family.

Next was the Liuyun Sect, which won ten in one go, and because it was the first to be selected, its position was second only to the Song family.

Then there was the Wang family. As an ally of the Song family, Song Changsheng would not treat them badly and left five shops for them.

The last one is Wu Lingzong. Because of Du Huating's hesitation, they only have two shops, and their locations are relatively remote.

Originally, Du Huating was still comforting himself in his heart. If the benefits were not good, they would lose the least.

But Du Huating regretted it on the first day of business, because the popularity of this auction greatly exceeded their expectations. Up to now, there are still three days before the official start of the auction, but the market has already gathered more than one person. Thousands of monks with different origins.

Perhaps compared to the number in Liuyunfang City, it is still far behind.

But Luoshuifang City is only in its infancy now. As long as it operates normally, it will be a matter of time before it surpasses Liuyunfang City.

Thinking of this, Du Huating regretted more and more, and could only comfort himself secretly: "This is only temporary. When the sect leader breaks through the Zi Mansion, these will change."

In the past, he might have said that the Song family could be destroyed with one hand, but now he no longer dares to have such an idea.

Because he didn't think Chang Wudao would be stronger than the Silver Moon Demon Wolf who had begun to return to his ancestors after breaking through the Zi Mansion.

Even the great demon fell into disgrace in front of the Song family. Could Chang Wudao be able to destroy the Song family?

Moreover, it is not a secret that Song Xianming broke through in seclusion. Du Huating now only hopes that Chang Wudao can break through quickly to avoid being liquidated by the Song family.

It can only be said that the situation is not up to anyone, it is changing too fast.

Fortunately, he has contacted a reliable ally, and self-protection should not be a problem in the future...

In the guard house, Song Changsheng was personally in charge to provide overall coordination, while Xia Yunxue, Song Chang'an and others led the family's elite clan members to patrol the city to prevent Xiaoxiao from causing trouble.

This kind of thing has happened before. Previously, a foundation-building casual cultivator ignored the Song family's order that no private fights were allowed in the city and killed a Qi-training casual cultivator in the city.

After the incident, Song Lutong arrived immediately and killed the offending Foundation Establishment monk on the spot in full view of everyone. Everyone was frightened for a while, and no one dared to challenge the Song family's authority in the past few days.

But we still can't take it lightly. After all, Liuyunfang City also experienced a bloody storm before it successfully gained a foothold.

Song Changsheng rarely had any leisure time, so he began to practice the "Five Beasts Body Training Technique" in the courtyard of the guard mansion. He had been practicing this method for a long time.

So far, the three figures of earth, fire, and gold have been cultivated to the Dacheng state, which makes his body comparable to a spiritual weapon, and ordinary attacks can be completely ignored. This surprised him and also began to look forward to what heights his body could reach after the five elements were completed.

It's just that although he already has [Ape Heart], he has not yet found [Blue Dragon Scale], which makes him a little anxious.

"I don't know where that guy Chihuo is now, or whether he tried his best." Song Changsheng murmured softly.

These words blended into the air and went with the wind, causing the red-haired old man hugging each other in a brothel in Qingzhou to shudder suddenly, and couldn't help but hug the nephrite in his arms tighter...

On the banks of the Luoshui River, two dusty figures landed outside Fangshi.

The old man among the two pointed at the behemoth above Fang City and said enviously: "That is the quasi-celestial ship. This is probably the only one in the entire Daqi cultivation world. I don't know which master it was."

"There are no more than three Tiangong masters in the Daqi cultivation world who are capable of building quasi-celestial ships. With this ship, the Song family can thrive for at least hundreds of years." The middle-aged man sighed with emotion. Who wouldn't be jealous of such a treasure? ah.

"To actually bring such valuable treasures here to take charge, it seems that the Song family attaches great importance to this auction."

"The more we pay attention to it, the more reassuring and expectant it becomes. Many comrades have already arrived. Fellow Daoist Qi, we cannot lag behind others."

"Hahaha, that's exactly what it is."

After being tested at the entrance, the two entered Fang City and found that the place was slightly different from what they imagined.

Originally, they thought that the newly built city would be very desolate. However, they did not expect that although the city was small, it was well-equipped with all kinds of shops. There were even a large number of casual cultivators setting up street stalls, making it look like a thriving place.

At this moment, a burst of fire suddenly shot up into the sky, and a man in black robe whose face could not be seen clearly in the fire rushed straight towards the skyship in the sky.

"Someone wants to rob the skyship?" The middle-aged man was shocked. Who is so bold?

The eyes of everyone in the city were focused on that figure, and they were either shocked, expecting, or... ready to make a move.

"presumptuous!"

A thunderous roar came out.

I saw a large golden net appearing out of thin air over Fangshi, covering the entire Fangshi.

The figure in the fire was caught off guard and bounced back. The fire surrounding him shattered, revealing the true face of the man in black robe, who looked very old.

"Swish"

At the same time, an emerald green rope spread out from somewhere in Fangshi and wrapped directly around the old man falling in mid-air.

The old man felt something in his heart, and his body suddenly became dim, and finally disappeared, leaving the rope empty.

After revealing his figure again, he was already a hundred feet away.

"What a brilliant movement." The old man surnamed Qi secretly exclaimed, but he didn't find any flaws at all.

The face of the old man in black robe was full of surprise. He was already fast enough, but he didn't expect that the other party would react faster. He couldn't even hit him. Now he had to think about how to escape.

Suddenly, the rope suddenly appeared above his head.

The old man was startled and wanted to repeat his old trick, but was shocked to find that he couldn't move, as if he was imprisoned in the air by an invisible force.

He struggled hard, and a large golden net appeared on his body, exactly like the one in the sky, wrapping him tightly, unable to move.

Since the old man dared to stroke the tiger's beard, he naturally had something to rely on. His thoughts moved slightly, and an invisible ripple emanated from the bronze ring on his finger.

The large net wrapped around him shattered inch by inch.

But before he could feel joy, the rope above his head rushed down and entangled him again. The moment he was entangled, he felt an invisible shackle imprisoning the spiritual power in his body.

Not only that, the rope was like a greedy poisonous snake, constantly sucking the life out of his body.

Unable to use any of his spiritual power, he fell straight down.

There was already a group of monks wearing black attire and the Song clan emblem waiting for him below.

As soon as the old man fell to the ground, these monks swarmed him up, held him up, and knelt down in shame facing the direction of the garrison.

From the beginning to the end of the battle, it was just a flash of lightning. Many monks have not yet reacted, and a late-stage foundation-building monk has already collapsed.

What shocked everyone the most was that they did not see who the old man's opponent was during the whole fight. Such a method was difficult for even the Foundation Establishment Dzogchen monks present to ask themselves.

At this time, the Song law enforcement disciple who was escorting the old man respectfully raised his hands and said loudly: "Please let the young patriarch make the final decision!"

There was only one word that responded to him: "Behead!"

After the words fell, in everyone's shocked eyes, the law enforcement disciple raised the long sword in his hand high. The sword flashed, blood spurted out, and the old man's good head fell to the ground.

It is estimated that the old man never thought before that that he would die at the hands of a small Qi-training monk.

Things are impermanent.

"Could that person just now be Song Changsheng, the young patriarch of the Song family who became famous in the first battle? Has he grown to such an extent in just a few years? It's really shocking." The old man surnamed Qi looked at the law enforcement disciples with dumbfounded eyes. The body was dragged away. It felt like I was living in a dream. How old was that guy?

The middle-aged monk nodded and said with emotion: "Apart from Patriarch Song, he is probably the only one in the Song family who can do this. This person will be great in the future!"

Song Changsheng used thunderous means to suppress a late-stage foundation-building monk, which shocked all the monks in the city. Some of the monks who originally had ulterior motives were frightened out of their wits after seeing this scene, and quickly put away their weapons. A little thought...

In the guard house, Song Changsheng, who had just sentenced a foundation-building monk to death, looked at the storage bag and ring brought to him by the law enforcement disciples, and was filled with curiosity.

Just now, the opponent was clearly trapped by him using the large array to activate the spiritual weapon [Luo Tian Net]. However, at the critical moment, a mysterious force rescued him. He was very curious about the source of this force.

Thinking about it, he turned his attention to the bronze ring. When he picked it up, he saw that it was a medium-grade spiritual weapon, and it was made of the rare [Heavenly Star Copper].

Those who can possess spiritual weapons among casual cultivators are all famous people. This person's identity should be found out soon, but Song Changsheng doesn't care.

Compared with this, he was more curious about how this ring broke the shackles of [Luo Tianwang]...
