Please show your spirit to our ancestors

Chapter 182: Second Spiritual Root! Establishing the position of the overlord of Hedong County!
……

Looking at his jubilant brother with a complicated expression, Tan Tai Yingsong felt that his responsibility was extremely heavy, and said quietly: "Brother, let me take a look at your contract."

If there were really harsh conditions and traps in the contract, he would tear up the contract immediately. At worst, he would be beaten and expelled from the Chen family's main house.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiuyang stepped in front of him and stared at him with a vigilant look: "This is a secret of our [Renaissance Society], you, an outsider, should not ask about it."

Wasn't it Dawu Fuxing Commercial Bank before? How did it suddenly become the Fuxing Association?

When Tan Tai Yingsong heard this, he immediately felt that there was something fishy going on.

He couldn't let his brother Huangfu fall into the trap, otherwise he, Tan Tai Yingsong, would be in trouble.

He quickly changed the subject: "Okay, if you give me a contract, I will join your... um, revival society."

"You?" Chen Xiuyang glanced at him sideways, "How many spiritual roots do you have? Have you mutated?"

"Four spiritual roots."

Tan Tai Yingsong originally thought that his four spiritual roots were something to be proud of, but when he thought of the mutated spiritual roots of the guy in front of him, he couldn't help but feel inferior.

really.

Chen Xiuyang shook his head in disgust when he heard this: "Your spiritual roots are too poor... No, ahem~ You lack an interesting soul, no spiritual energy, and no love for life and art~ You are like a walking corpse. The position of the founder of our Renaissance Society is not suitable for you."

What a lack of interesting soul!

Tan Tai Yingsong's emotions broke down a little, and he looked at Chen Xiuyang with dead eyes.

He is not deaf... You are clearly looking down on ordinary people with four spiritual roots, okay?
"However, although the position of founder is gone, we are still preparing to absorb some small, no, core members." Chen Xiuyang took out another contract and stuffed it into his hand, "If you sign this contract, you will be a member of our Renaissance Society."

The corner of Tan Tai Yingsong's mouth twitched fiercely.

No, brother, aren't the recruitment standards of your Fuxing Society a bit high?

Four spiritual roots can only be ordinary members?
*****

Same time period.

Yixian Market, Yixian Tower.

Ascension Pavilion.

With a loud cry, a flying chariot pulled by two fourth-rank [Colorful Tail Red Luan] circled and flew down, landing on the Yixian Tower, the tallest building in the market.

at this time.

In the Dengxian Pavilion on the top floor of Yixian Building, the senior executives of Yixianfang City, led by Lu Qingxuan, and Shangguan Yulong, had already lined up and were gazing at the Hongluan flying chariot coming from afar with bated breath, and they were all very excited.

Especially Lu Qingxuan, her neck was slightly red with excitement.

She never dreamed that Princess Yun Yi would come to Hedong County in person to inspect the Yixiannu project she initiated.

It’s a great honor!
Although the Great Wu royal family no longer has power in the world of immortal cultivation, it is still an ancient and powerful family. Not to mention the Hedong Lu family, even the Zhongzhou Lu family is far inferior to it.

Most importantly, the royal family is rich, very rich!

The inheritance left by their ancestors was enough for them to live an extremely luxurious life, not to mention that the royal family had always been willing to devote their time and energy to managing the family's businesses. Over the years, God knew how much wealth they had accumulated.

As the Hongluan flying chariot landed, Lu Qingxuan immediately hurried to greet it, personally invited Princess Yunyi to get off the chariot, and entertained her warmly.

The princess's attitude was also very warm, making people feel like spring breeze.

Seeing such a scene, Shangguan Yulong and Lu Haobo were naturally shocked.

It turned out that what Lu Qingxuan said was true, and the relationship between her and Princess Yun Yi was indeed unusual.

For a moment, both of them couldn't help but look at Lu Qingxuan with admiration.

Although she is not good in some aspects, she is outstanding in some aspects.

After the welcoming banquet, Princess Yunyi quickly entered into work mode.

At Lu Qingxuan's hospitality, she visited the production workshop, looked at the samples of Yixiannu, checked out Lu's promotion plan, and even looked at the orders for Yixiannu that had exceeded two thousand!
As a deposit alone, Lu received more than 100,000 spirit stones!

The future is truly bright.

Princess Yun Yi, who originally thought that this project was feasible, naturally agreed to the loan application on the spot, and had her subordinate civil servants sign a series of contracts with the Lu family, clarifying the name, type, and related specific information of the collateral.

That night.

Right in the VIP suite of Yixianlou, Wu Yongliang, the great-great-grandson of the emperor who had been accompanying the whole process, started a quarrel with his aunt for the first time in his life.

He slammed the table in excitement and anger: "Wu Yunyi, you know that Chen Xiuyang of Chen's is my brother!"

Wu Yunyi lay lazily on the toffee chair, drinking her spiritual tea calmly as usual: "Yes, I know."

"Since you knew that, why did you sign a loan agreement with Lu?" Wu Yongliang was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. "This Lu company is too shameless. Not only did they copy my brother's jade slave products, they also snatched their agents. What's more, they even want to squeeze my brother's jade slaves out of the market!"

"And then?" Wu Yunyi watched her nephew lose his temper with interest.

"What then?" Wu Yongliang's eyes widened. "Isn't this enough? Shouldn't we just invest in Chen's company and beat the villain Lu's company to pieces, and let those rubbish Yixian slaves go to hell?"

"Why should we help Chen?" Wu Yunyi chuckled. "Lu's plan seems very feasible. The orders have exceeded 2,000 and are still rising. As long as we have the spiritual stones in place, we can immediately start large-scale production and quickly seize the market. By then, 3,000, 5,000... Guangda Wu's market volume is likely to exceed 10,000!"

"This is a huge market that may exceed millions of spiritual stones in a short period of time! In the future, we can also explore overseas markets, and the future is limitless. I am very optimistic about this project now. Not only do I want to lend money to Lu, but I also want to invest in this project!"

Wu Yongliang was dumbfounded and angrily said, "Since it's also an investment, why not invest in Chen's? Although Chen's jade slaves are inferior in combat effectiveness, they are realistic enough and will be more popular in the market."

Wu Yunyi said calmly: "I have also considered the problem you mentioned. After all, Yunu once had a good market advantage, and their product quality is indeed good."

"But they have now been successfully ambushed by Lu's. Lu's has already received a huge number of orders. As long as we give them a little push, we can share in the huge profits."

"If we invest in Chen's, we will have to compete with Lu's, Shangguan's and others. The risk is too great."

The more Wu Yongliang listened to Princess Yunyi's words, the less he liked them. He could not help but snorted angrily, "I believe in my brother and his family. They will never lose to the Lu family."

"Since you firmly believe that the Chen family can win, then I will teach you a good lesson." Princess Yun Yi chuckled, "I will use this case to make you clear your mind. There are many things in the world that cannot be won by just relying on brotherhood and recklessness."

"What if you lose?" Wu Yongliang's face was full of dissatisfaction.

"Heh~" Princess Yun Yi laughed, "If you're not convinced, then let's make a bet. If you lose, you agree to one of my conditions. If I lose, I'll agree to one of your conditions."

"Any conditions are acceptable?" Wu Yongliang's eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked up and down at Princess Yunyi with shining eyes, his eyes full of ill intentions.

Princess Yun Yi's face tightened and she quickly covered her dress, her pretty face blushing.

The next moment, Wu Yongliang was hanging upside down on the beam.

Princess Yun Yi held a ruler in her hand and slapped his buttocks: "You stinky boy, how dare you have dirty thoughts about your aunt? You are so rebellious!"

"Hey, Wu Yunyi, don't, ouch, don't think about it~ ouch, it's too... ouch~ stop it!" Wu Yongliang was beaten so hard that he wailed repeatedly and could hardly speak clearly.

After Princess Yun Yi finished beating him, she scolded him coldly, "Although your aunt is indeed extremely charming, you better put away your inappropriate thoughts and don't even think about them."

"Fuck! Hiss, hiss, hiss." Wu Yongliang gasped in pain, his face hanging upside down with dejection, "Aunt, can you stop being so self-indulgent? Hiss, I like Liu Qingyan, you are a million miles away from her!"

"What?" Princess Yun Yi was slightly stunned.

Who is Liu Qingyan?
"Alright, alright, I can't explain it to you." Wu Yongliang kept taking a breath and finished his words in one breath, "Anyway, if you lose, you have to promise me that you will take the initiative to go on a date with my brother Chen Xiuyang! Remember, you have to take the initiative... My brother is a very aloof person~ It's not easy for him to show affection to a woman."

"I%￥#%"

Princess Yun Yi’s face turned dark.

With this condition...it's better to just accept that your nephew is a pervert!

The next moment, Wu Yongliang's body was filled with continuous snapping sounds~~ and Wu Yongliang's heart-wrenching wails~~~
****
A few days later.

Sheshan Market, in the VIP lounge of Jintai Building.

A fiery red banner blocked the precious painting [Pine and Crane Longevity], with a line of eye-catching large characters written on it - [The First Founders' Conference of the Renaissance Society].

There were four participants in total.

Chen Xiuyang, Jiang Xiaoyu, Wu Yongliang, and Huangfu Jiayu.

As the founder and president of the Renaissance Society, Chen Xiuyang naturally sat in the chairman's seat.

He glanced at everyone and knocked on the table at the sleepy Jiang Xiaoyu: "Vice President Jiang, we are in a meeting, be serious."

Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly woke up, looking around with a pair of hazy eyes, his brain still a little unresponsive: "Is the meeting over? Brother Xiuyang, is it time to eat?"

"..." Chen Xiuyang held his forehead and said unhappily, "In the workplace, don't call me brother or younger brother. You should address me as [President Chen] or [President Xiuyang]!"

As he spoke, he pointed at Huangfu Jiayu and said, "This Vice President Jiayu is the co-founder of the Renaissance Society that I recently invited. Let's get to know each other and welcome him."

Huangfu Jiayu became a little excited when he heard this.

I didn’t expect that he would become the vice president and co-founder as soon as he joined the organization.

He stood up and said, "Presidents and vice-presidents, my name is Huangfu Jiayu, I come from Wanhua Palace, I am 22 years old, and my spiritual root qualification is four spiritual roots and ice spiritual roots. My ancestors wanted me to join the Silver Snow Lake of Wanhua Palace, but I can't accept the sect culture of Wanhua Palace. I am considering whether to join Yunyang Sect or Wuhen Mountain."

"My favorite color is white, and I like girls who are gentle, kind, and not pretentious... Yes, you guessed it right, the type of girl like Sister Wenwen! I have a strong sense of justice in my heart... My favorite food is..."

"Ahem!" Seeing that he was about to continue talking, Chen Xiuyang coughed a few times to interrupt him, and then applauded enthusiastically, "Vice President Jiayu said it well. Don't say it next time. Everyone welcome him."

Wow!
There was some scattered applause.

"Vice President Jiang, please introduce yourself." Chen Xiuyang looked at Jiang Xiaoyu.

"Jiang Xiaoyu, 25 years old, three spiritual roots, practicing water-based exercises." Jiang Xiaoyu introduced himself quickly and briefly, then shut up.

She didn't want to introduce her origins.

"Huh? It turns out Xiaoyu also has three spiritual roots?" Wu Yongliang, whose nose and face were swollen and whose injuries had not yet healed, was slightly surprised.

"..."

Jiang Xiaoyu looked at him in surprise.

"My name is Wu Yongliang. I come from the imperial family of Great Wu. I'm an ordinary person with two spiritual roots and the first in line to the throne of the future crown prince..." Wu Yongliang introduced himself.

Uh……

There was a moment of silence.

Jiang Xiaoyu also stared at him: "Ah, this is not... Brother Liang, you have a second spiritual root, how come your cultivation is so poor? Also, you don't have a third spiritual root, why did you say 'also' just now?"

"Because I know a lot of people with three spiritual roots, my aunt... my father... my mother... and, of course, my cultivation is poor because I'm too lazy to practice." Wu Yongliang explained indifferently.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and looked at Jiang Xiaoyu: "By the way, my mother's surname is also Jiang, from the Zhendong Wang family of the Tianyuan Dynasty. Xiaoyu'er, you are not from the Tianyuan Dynasty too, right?"

"Ah, this..." Jiang Xiaoyu hesitated to speak, his face silent.

"Aliang, don't ask any more questions." Chen Xiuyang stopped him, "Xiaoyu was attacked before, and his brain was damaged. Now he gets a headache whenever he thinks about the past!"

After a pause, he couldn't help but ask, "However, Aliang, you are a second-level spiritual root, are you still willing to make friends with us?"

"I never look at spiritual roots when making friends." Wu Yongliang said sincerely, "I think true brothers must be of the same mind. And I admire Brother Xiu Yang the most, and I am willing to do great things with him."

Chen Xiuyang was touched, and immediately patted him on the shoulder, saying in a deep and meaningful way: "Brothers are united."

"Work together to break the metal!"

Wu Yongliang also put his arm on Chen Xiuyang's shoulder, his face full of sincerity, deep and meaningful.

Jiang Xiaoyu: “…”

Huangfu Jiayu: “⊙▽⊙”

at the same time.

Outside the VIP lounge, Tan Tai Yingsong, who was excluded from the core circle, was pacing back and forth in a restless mood.

He paced a few steps and looked up at the VIP lounge. He felt as if he and his brother had joined a strange organization and that they had been cheated.

However, this VIP lounge was blocked by a formation, and he could not hear what was going on in the meeting from outside.

Feeling really worried, he moved closer but was stopped by the burly Chen Xiuxu.

"Brother Yingsong, a co-founder meeting is being held inside, and it is not allowed for core members of the Renaissance Society like us to eavesdrop." Chen Xiuxu reminded him in a muffled voice.

Tan Tai Yingsong's face was as black as ink.

What the hell are the core members? I, with four spiritual roots, can only be a core member. Could it be that the four people in the room are all four spiritual roots with mutated spiritual roots?

Besides, what organization in this world would have four founders when there are only two core members?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Could this really be a scam organization?

How could I have believed in such evil and joined this crappy organization for my brother? !

And this moment.

In the VIP room where Tan Tai Yingsong couldn't hear, Chen Xiuyang's voice rang out again: "Our organization's external name is [Da Wu Fuxing Trading Company], but its official name is [Da Wu Fuxing Association]. This is the name that Vice President Yong Liang and I came up with after discussing it. Do you have any objections?"

"No problem. Our organization sounds very high-end and exciting. It feels like a gathering of bigwigs." Huangfu Jiayu raised his hand in agreement and asked, "By the way, President Xiu Yang, what is our next move?"

"Wait a minute, before we talk about action, I have an important piece of information to share." Wu Yongliang raised his hand to express his opinion.

Then, he said to Chen Xiuyang with a serious expression: "My aunt has already lent a large sum of money to your opponent, Yixianfang City, and also invested a sum of 100,000 spirit stones! President Xiuyang, you and your family must take it seriously. I don't want to lose the bet~"

"I understand. I will inform the family about this." Chen Xiuyang nodded, his expression still calm. "But don't worry too much about these details. The family elders will handle this matter. Let's just do what we can."

"Our first founders' meeting is to formulate a general outline for future development and clarify the beliefs and path forward..."

Chen Xiuyang said a lot of things, and then concluded: "In short, let's start from the perspective of cultural industry."

"Since it is an industry, just one book, "The Romantic Swordsman and the Pretty Master," is definitely not enough. So I decided to take this opportunity to launch a magazine, "Dawu Culture."

"I gave myself a pen name, called [White Hair Like Snow], and I'm going to serialize [Proudly Slashing the Immortal Firmament], which tells the story of a young man who has been lonely since childhood. After his family was destroyed by an accident, he took revenge step by step. With the help of various beautiful women, he reached the pinnacle, slashed the immortal firmament, and led a peak life surrounded by beauties and invincible in the world!"

"It's profound and full of substance!" Wu Yongliang's eyes lit up, "As expected of President Xiu Yang."

"Hmph, childish." Jiang Xiaoyu snorted disdainfully. "In order to support the development of the Renaissance Society, I also took a pen name called [Big Fish]. I plan to write a book [From the Princess in Distress to the Supreme Empress]. It tells the story of a princess who was framed and fell into the mortal world. Then, with the help of twelve handsome men with different characteristics, she swept away all enemies in the world, reached the pinnacle, and ascended the throne again! This book is also known as "The Supreme Empress and Her Twelve Immortal Lords." "

"Then I will also write a book called 'From the Destitute Prince to the Supreme Immortal Emperor.'" Wu Yongliang said in high spirits, "This book is also called 'The Supreme Immortal Emperor and His Twelve Immortal Consorts.'"

"You are plagiarizing!" Jiang Xiaoyu was furious.

"I'm paying tribute to the classics!" Wu Yongliang said without any shame.

Huangfu Jiayu was full of admiration: "You are all so amazing... I don't have the experience and writing skills like you, I can only write a book based on my own experience, "It's Over! I'm Surrounded by Beautiful Senior Sisters."

"..." Everyone.

****
When the organization was just starting out, enthusiasm was at its highest. After the first founding meeting of the Renaissance Society, Chen Xiuyang, Jiang Xiaoyu, Wu Yongliang, and Huangfu Jiayu divided their work and got busy.

They had to finish the beginnings of their novels first. At the same time, if they wanted to publish the magazine, they had to maintain a lot of relationships and determine a lot of details, from the magazine's cover, illustrations, and layout to printing details, print quantity, shipping channels, publicity plans... and so on.

Time flies quickly in the busy life.

Over in Yixianfang City, with the help of the large amount of spirit stones invested by Princess Yunyi, skilled weapon refiners from all over the country continued to gather in Hedong County, and two expensive and large-scale production lines were built at the same time in the Yixiannu production workshop in Yixianfang City.

After the two production lines are fully started up, the first mass-produced Yixian slave can be produced within ten days, and a stable output of twenty Yixian slaves can be achieved every day, with an annual output of several thousand.

In just one year, Lu's company will be able to deliver all current orders!
The subsequent production can, on the one hand, meet subsequent orders, and on the other hand, be used to accelerate overseas layout.

But just as the production line in Yixianfang City completed the first Yixian slave and was celebrating vigorously and popping champagne at halftime, the "sniper operation" that Chen had been planning for a long time was finally officially launched.

They laid hands on several major materials of Zhun Yixiannu, ending the previous steady acquisition rhythm and starting to buy them at a premium.

As for the Lu family, it was naturally impossible for them to just sit there and watch the supply of materials being cut off.

Now that their business has been fully expanded, almost all resources and working capital have been invested, even a considerable portion of the money borrowed from loans. Once the production line stops working, not only will the production task not be completed as planned, but they will also have to pay huge amounts of equipment refiners' fees every day, and the capital chain will soon be completely broken.

As a last resort, they were forced to join and started purchasing materials at a premium.

After all this trouble, the consequences soon became apparent.

The prices of several major raw materials are changing almost every day, rising steadily~~~
Fortunately, the Lu family had the support of the Dawu Royal Farm, so the production of Yixiannu was not affected by the inability to buy raw materials.

In order to avoid unnecessary financial losses due to excessive increases in raw material prices in the future, they even gobbled up raw materials in large quantities at a premium like a whale before the prices reached their peak, and quickly stockpiled enough production materials to produce 5,000 Yixian slaves.

And their spirit stones also poured into the market like a flood, in exchange for batches of raw materials.

It is said that Lu Qingxuan scolded Chen for being shameless every day and even complained about Chen to the sect, accusing Chen of malicious competition in business.

The result was naturally nothing.

Fortunately, the most difficult month is finally over.

The number of Yixian slaves produced by Lu's company has reached 600, and the first batch is ready to be delivered in Yixianfang City.

By doing so, on the one hand, it can appease those increasingly impatient booking customers, and on the other hand, it can also recover more than 100,000 spirit stones in cash at one time, greatly alleviating the spirit stone pressure of the Lu family.

In order to recruit a large number of equipment refiners and add two production lines in a short period of time, Lu's company has already spent a lot of money. Now, it has to take in a large amount of main raw materials whose prices are rising day by day. Lu's account is already a bit tight.

The date the order is delivered.

Lu Qingxuan stood on the Dengxian Pavilion and looked down from afar.

As the news of the order delivery was released, within just two days, a large number of users from all over the place had already rushed to the Yixian Market. Among them were customers who were about to receive the delivery, customers who came to urge the order, and even a large number of monks who came to watch the excitement.
Such a large flow of people really made Lu Qingxuan feel relieved.

In just one month, she found that she had aged several years. It was too tiring.

Fortunately, as long as today's delivery is completed, the spirit stone funds can be circulated, and it will be easy to deliver once a month in the future. In less than a year, the entire Great Wu Kingdom will be filled with Yixian slaves.

Who will remember Yu Nu and who will remember Sheshan Market by then?

And the Lu family can also use this to establish their position as the overlord of Hedong County!
