The Strongest Family In The Ages

"Do you know why Los Angeles is called Los Angeles?" Xiaoqing asked with a proud face.

"Is Los the last name of Los Angeles?" Li Daoxuan guessed, thinking that this guess was correct.

Lu Qingcheng smiled slightly and stopped Qing'er from continuing: "Qing'er, be more low-key!"

"Fellow Daoist Li, you shouldn't say that. But it's true that Los Angeles was created by a senior in my family."

Sure enough, as Li Daoxuan expected, the one behind Los Angeles is the Profound Heaven Commercial Alliance, the Lu family!

"What about Miss Qingcheng?"

Qing'er proudly said, "Hmph! Our young lady is the young miss of the Lu family!"

"So, in Los Angeles, Miss Lu has the final say?"

Qing'er said, "You can say that!"

Li Daoxuan said apologetically, "Miss Lu, I want to open a shop in Los Angeles. I don't know what I need to do."

Lu Qingcheng's beautiful eyes turned cunningly and said, "Why don't you call me Qingcheng? Why are you being so polite?"

"Hehe! Isn't this asking for help? I have to lower my head!"

"Hahaha..." Seeing Li Daoxuan's funny appearance, Lu Qingcheng couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Qingcheng felt a bit rude and covered her mouth, saying, "Aren't we friends? Shall I give you a shop?"

Li Daoxuan quickly waved his hand and said, "That's not good. I feel like I'm taking advantage of you!"

"Phew! What nonsense are you talking about? Dream on if you think you can take advantage of our young lady!" Qing'er couldn't help but speak up again.

Lu Qingcheng: "..."

"Qing'er, why are you speaking like that? Am I that kind of person?"

"I just want to rent a shop. Even if Miss Lu wants to give it to me, I wouldn't dare to accept it!"

Lu Qingcheng nodded and said, "I do have a few attic buildings and many shops. Renting you a shop is not a problem."

"The rent will be ten thousand spirit stones per year!"

"Miss, isn't this the same as giving it away for free?"

Lu Qingcheng didn't mind and said, "Qing'er, am I someone who lacks spirit stones?"

Li Daoxuan: "..."

What else could he say? Li Daoxuan liked having such a domineering friend.

When Lu Qingcheng took out a pile of contracts for buildings, shops, and restaurants, and let Li Daoxuan choose, Li Daoxuan felt envious.

However, Li Daoxuan only chose a shop that was relatively far from the Profound Heaven Commercial Alliance.

"I'll choose this shop."

"Are you sure?"

"This shop is not the best!"

"I'll take this one!" Li Daoxuan's choice was still good, with a large flow of people.

Lu Qingcheng personally took care of everything efficiently. After giving a few instructions, all the procedures were completed, and the shop was quickly cleaned up. Overnight, it was even decorated. Tomorrow, Li Daoxuan could take over the shop.

After finishing everything, Li Daoxuan said apologetically, "If I open this shop, will I be taking away your family's business?"

Lu Qingcheng laughed and said, "Hahaha! You don't have to worry about that at all. The Profound Heaven Commercial Alliance has much more business than this. This is just a small business!"

Li Daoxuan added, "I can sell some Spiritual Weapons and elixirs to the Profound Heaven Commercial Alliance at a low price!"

"That's fine!"

Li Daoxuan was about to leave when Lu Qingcheng couldn't help but say, "If I have difficulties and ask for help, will you help me?"

Li Daoxuan didn't look back, but waved his hand firmly and said, "I will help!"

Lu Qingcheng smiled, and she even took off her veil. That smile was truly captivating.

However, Li Daoxuan was pretending to be someone he's not and missed that moment.

Qing'er brought Li Daoxuan to the eighth floor and arranged a quiet room for him, a room covered in spirit stones with a Spirit Gathering formation carved into it.

Qing'er returned to the ninth floor and stared at her mistress without blinking.

Lu Qingcheng was puzzled by the intense gaze and reached out to tap Qing'er on the forehead, saying, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Miss, do you have feelings for that young master Li?" Qing'er asked.

"Why do you ask that?"

"Miss, please don't be deceived by that smooth-talking young master Li. Let me tell you, he already has a partner, and not just one!" Qing'er warned.

"Is that so?" Lu Qingcheng's tone remained unaffected.

Qing'er continued, "Still denying it? You gave him a VIP card, you even gave him a shop, and most importantly, you're always seen laughing and talking with him. That's not like you, Miss!"

"You used to treat any man the same way!"

"Qing'er, you're overthinking. I just find Fellow Daoist Li to be an interesting person, and a rare talent at that."

...

In the evening, the shopkeeper Lu had already delivered a batch of first-grade materials, including spirit herbs, spirit roots, spirit fruits, and refining materials.

Li Daoxuan originally didn't care about refining a first-grade Spiritual Weapon, but since he was opening a shop, he had to prepare a batch of first-grade Spiritual Weapons and spirit pills.

Li Daoxuan spent the night refining tools, preparing for the opening of the shop.

It wasn't until someone knocked on the door that Li Daoxuan snapped out of his focus and put away the finished Spiritual Weapons and pills.

"Miss Qing'er, why is it you?"

"Let's go, I'll accompany you to hand over the shop."

"Thank you for your help, Miss Qing'er. By the way, where is your mistress?"

"Don't ask, and even if you do, I won't tell you. And let me warn you, don't even think about making a move on my mistress, or else the consequences will be severe!"

Li Daoxuan: "..."

The two of them walked in silence and soon arrived at a shop on the east side of Lu City.

Li Daoxuan's eyes were immediately drawn to it. This shop wasn't small in size, and the interior was engraved with spatial formations. It may not look big from the outside, but the interior space was quite spacious.

Li Daoxuan even noticed traces of recent renovation. The counters and tables were newly custom-made.

This was definitely the result of working overtime last night. As long as there were goods, they could open for business today.

Li Daoxuan walked around and what pleased him the most was that there was a large courtyard behind the shop, with many rooms and a spiritual field.

This... was simply perfect!

"Are you satisfied?" Qing'er couldn't help but ask.

"I'm more than satisfied! Please thank your mistress for me when you go back."

What else could he be dissatisfied with? Renting a shop solved all kinds of problems at once.

Not only could he earn spirit stones, but he could also live here long-term and cultivate spiritual herbs and roots.

After the handover was completed, Qing'er went back, and Li Daoxuan was very satisfied with this shop. As he inspected it, he thought about the opening.

What should he name the shop?

Li Daoxuan was terrible at naming things. He had even pulled out several strands of hair when naming his children, and now he was struggling with naming the shop.

"How about calling it Wanbao Ge? It may be a bit common, but it's straightforward and concise."

For this, Li Daoxuan even personally refined a plaque, a second-grade top-quality Spiritual Weapon plaque. Have you ever seen one?

After looking at the plaque, he felt that something was missing.

"Oh right, it's missing a small line of text."

"Wanbao Ge's products are guaranteed to be top-quality!"

Li Daoxuan carved a small line of text in the corner of the plaque. This would be Wanbao Ge's future signboard and flagship product.

After hanging up the plaque, Li Daoxuan closed himself off in Wanbao Ge. His seclusion wasn't for cultivation, but to prepare Spiritual Weapons, spirit pills, and spirit formations for the opening.
