Immortal Cultivator Family: I am an old man who has come to marry a wife.

On the main peak of Yandang Mountain, Xu Yuming and Chu Xingbo were sitting together.

In addition to me, who is the pinnacle of foundation building in my Chu family's foundation building, there are also Chu Hongxiu in the late stage of foundation building, Chu Xunzhou in the middle stage of foundation building, Chu Xunshan in the early stage of foundation building, Chu Hongzun in the early stage of foundation building, and Chu Xunzhou in the early stage of foundation building. Chu Hongyang in the early stage of foundation building, and Xu Wentian, the elder of the Keqing in the early stage of foundation building, a total of seven foundation building monks.

There are also 317 Qi Refining cultivators of our own clan, 1,033 casual cultivators and nominal guests. In addition, there are more than 310,000 residents in Tianshui Town where the three rivers converge.

…

Xu Yuming couldn't help but marvel. As expected of the power that traveled all over the country and opened Tianshui Pavilion to all major states and counties in the mountains and seas, there were really quite a lot of Qi Refining monks.

How many other resources are there? I'm asking about shops, mineral resources, alchemists, weapon refiners, array magicians, talisman makers, etc.

Not asking about the spirit stone means that Xu Yuming is not prepared to take away the Chu family's property.

Chu Xingbo's expression did not change, As for the shops, currently, there are basically 105 counties in the 13 prefectures of Shanhai Kingdom that we have business dealings with. There are 57 main shops. Of course, most of them have not improved, you know. , If you want to gain a foothold in those markets, you need at least one foundation-building monk to take charge, and I don’t have enough foundation-building monks in Tianshui Pavilion.”

In addition, under my name, Tianshui Pavilion, there are one medium-sized spiritual stone vein, three small-sized spiritual stone veins, four century-old mineral veins, one second-level spiritual plant, one second-level spiritual tea tree, and more than three thousand first-level spiritual plants and elixirs. Plant.

Alchemists, in addition to Xunzhou, a second-level mid-level alchemist, there is also a second-level low-level alchemist, Guest Xu Wentian, and there are more than sixty first-level alchemists.

The weapon refining masters have the methods of the Earth Fire Weapon Sect and the foreign weapon refining sects. Ordinary spiritual weapons can be refined by paying spirit stones. There are only more than 20 first-level weapon refining masters in the clan.

The Talisman Maker only has more than twenty first-level Talisman Makers, and the Formation Master currently only has a dozen or so disciples who maintain the family's protective formation. They are not proficient in the formation. They can only be said to have preliminary mastery of the formation pattern, which is barely considered a first-level A low-grade formation mage.”

…

After listening to Chu Xingbo's narration, Xu Yuming calmly raised his head and said, Senior Xingbo, what do you want?

As you said, with great ambitions, I, Tianshui Pavilion, want to expand our business to every state and county in the Shanhai Region, and even every county, and also to other regions such as the Sword Region and the Black Stone Ancient Region.

In addition, please do not change the status and treatment of the foundation-building monks and elders in our clan.

As for the assets within our clan, please keep most of them for us. After all, we need to support the disciples in the clan. If there are elite disciples, they can be sent to practice or sit in the clan land after the merger of our two clans.

While he was talking, two more spiritual energy clouds rose from the back mountain.

Looking at the grand scene of foundation building, Chu Xingbo sighed with emotion, Master Xu, you Xu family really has a profound foundation. There have been more than ten foundation builders before, and now there are two more. I really support the two families. I’m excited about the prospects after the merger.”

Shua

A sound transmission jade slip appeared in front of Xu Yuming. He picked it up casually, and Xu Yutang's voice immediately came from inside.

[Nineteenth Uncle, the ones who successfully established the foundation were Sixteenth Uncle Xu Yushi and collateral Xu Shan. This boy is only twenty-eight years old, and the clan wants to designate him as the Yanzi generation. 】

【I have no objection. 】

After replying, Xu Yuming looked at Chu Xingbo, All foundation-building monks of the Chu family will enjoy the status of elders.

My opinion is that after the situation stabilizes, start from the surrounding prefectures and counties, starting with the seven counties of Hejian County, Changshan County, Zhongshan County, Julu County, Bohai County, Wei County, Tao County, and Jizhou City. , in these eight places, eight foundation-building monks will be dispatched to establish eight shops, including our Yandangfang Auction House, that is nine. We will capture the counties of Jizhou first, what do you think?

Chu Xingbo tapped the rim of the tea cup with one finger, My Chu family is quite familiar with alchemy, overall planning, and buying and selling resources. Your Xu family is good at making talismans, but there are only two sub-professions that you can use. So, Nine large stores require a lot of resources to maintain profitability.

Xu Yuming's fingertips were trembling, and he had relied on the spiritual power of earth to condense into a chess piece and fell down, In our Xu family's Weapon Refining Peak, we currently have two second-level low-level weapon refiners, and second-level talisman makers including me, there are three in total. People, including your two second-level alchemists from the Chu family, it is not a problem to maintain the supply of goods for a few shops.

In addition, I brought back a lot of spiritual soil from the secret realm of Ten Thousand Snakes Valley, which can be planted. I am going to talk to the Xiannong Sect. If they are willing to merge with us, I will use the Yandang Mountains to create a sect and merge my three families. Use your strength to break the situation by refining elixirs and making talismans first.

Zongmen.

Chu Xingbo frowned, But if this happens, the five sects of Tao County will definitely put pressure on us, and may even take action against us. Can we withstand so many powerful people joining forces?

It's nothing more than two or three Zifu monks, a group of foundation-building Dzogchen. If they dare to come, we will fight.

Seeing that Xu Yuming was so confident, Chu Xingbo confirmed again that Xu Qionghai had already entered the next great realm.

These shops all need treasures to guard them. Just like our Yandangfang Tianshui Pavilion in the past, we only have some top-grade magic weapons. If we want to stand firm in these counties and cities, we must at least have foundation-building monks carrying a third-level formation to guard them, as well as high-grade spirits. Only weapon-level treasures can suppress the situation.

Xu Yuming flipped his hands and placed ten 3,000-year-old purple ginseng plants on the table. Is this enough?

That's enough, but we don't dare to take it out at will, otherwise even the real Jin Dan will be tempted if he sees it.

Speaking of this, Xu Yuming pointed to these shops, What I mean is to dispatch Xu Yushi and Xu Yanshan who have just established the foundation, as well as Chu Xunshan, Chu Hongzun, and Chu Hongyang from your Chu family to take charge of Hejian County respectively. , Changshan County, Zhongshan County, Julu County, and Bohai County stores.”

I see that your clan-protecting formation in Tianshui Pavilion and Tianshui's first-line flood formation are low-level third-level formations that are easier to imitate. It's better to draw a batch of spiritual stones from the treasure house in one go and build a few first.

Chu Xingbo nodded slightly, You can let Hongxiu or I take turns to take charge of Tianshuigefang City in Yandangfang. Who will be in charge of the other three?

Our Xu family has twelve foundation-building monks this time. Four have died so far, and five have successfully built the foundation. If the remaining three succeed, they can fill the gap. If not, we can continue to recruit casual cultivators.

Oh? The owner's future plan is to let casual cultivators take charge of these shops?

Facing Chu Xingbo's doubts, Xu Yuming spread his hands and said, Without the participation of you Tianshui Pavilion, I would only prepare to set up an enshrinement hall and use Keqing to conquer all directions. But now that I have you, I can completely let Keqing and his descendants and Newly promoted foundation builders are trained in these shops. Inner disciples of the Five Beast Sect, those new foundation builders have to go out to other states and counties to serve as outer sect deacons. We also have similar skills but similar results.

However, your alchemists, weapon refiners, and talisman makers will all be stationed in my Xu family's alchemy peak and weapon refiner peak. I will use the earth dragon moving mountain technique to raise several hundred-foot peaks from the ground. Establish Talisman Peak.

After the merger of the two families, Hongxiu will become the second great elder of my Xu family, and senior Xingbo, as long as you step into the foundation-building perfection, you can become the supreme elder.

Hey, I don't care about these false reputations. Chu Xingbo waved his hand, looking humble on the surface, but he was still happy in his heart. After all, there is only one Supreme Elder in the Xu family, and that is Xu Qionghai, who is suspected of having stepped into the Zi Mansion. Chu Xingbo was secretly happy if he was qualified to be tied with him.

What I mean is that if we want to postpone the founding of the clan, we must not be the first person. Our Chu family of Tianshui Pavilion can serve as a vassal of your Xu family and continue to act in the name of the Xu family of Yandang Mountain.

Xu Yuming nodded, saying that the Establishment Family is a vassal. It sounds like there are no two Foundation Establishment families joining forces to create the Zifu sect. It is indeed the best policy to wait and see. These old guys are all mature with age and are very cunning.

Seeing Chu Xingbo leave, Xu Yuming was not worried about his regrets. The only reason he could persuade this old guy was to give him one of the Ziyang Pills after he successfully refined it.

This is Zifu's opportunity. He is also a hundred years old, so he will definitely be tempted.

Compared with Zifu Avenue, the family's power has also fallen behind.

Shua

On Xu Yuming's side, the transmission talisman lit up again. He saw a touch of purple on it, and his face suddenly showed a bit of surprise.

It's actually the message from Yan Bing?

Xu Yanbing is now a true disciple of the Five Beasts Sect. If there is no important matter, he will not contact the family. He needs to concentrate on training and hit the ranking of the true disciples of the Five Beasts Sect. At least he must get the last position in his lineage. Only then can he be noticed and appreciated by the top leaders of the Five Beast Sect.

[Uncle, the sect has made big moves recently. It seems that an order will be issued to develop the Blackstone Ancient Territory, and five locations including Wolf King Valley, Lantao Mountain, Wubu River, Misty Forest, and Qianhu Island will be selected as the territory of the Zifu sect. Select powerful sect forces under your rule to move in and take charge. 】

Just this one item made Xu Yuming unable to help but stand up.

I said, how could this old guy from Honghu Sanren choose to stay in Taoguan? The army of monks from the Five Beast Sect has not withdrawn for a while. I didn't expect that this time they would attack the Blackstone Ancient Territory and let the demon clan of the Blackstone Holy Mountain I gave in and actually gave up the territory of the Golden Core Beast King with three third-level high-grade spiritual veins in one go. It’s really a generous move.”

Xu Yuming's expression changed. If the Xu family could acquire Lantaoshan and run it for a hundred years, even if it was not a Jindan force, it would definitely be the top one among the Zifu forces.

But these five territories are too close to the Black Stone Holy Mountain...

She looks so tempting, like a mature young woman.

But in fact, isn't it just a tiger with its big mouth open, dripping with laughter, staring at these five plates of pastries?

[Watch and wait at any time to see which forces are interested. Our Xu family can wait for the opportunity. 】

After the reply, Xu Yuming put his feet down and quickly flew towards Yandangfang.

He wants to get rid of Xiannong Sect as soon as possible.

The attitude of the ancestor of Juedao was uncertain. The Skull Mountain was not easy to deal with the Xu family, but for the sake of Bone Fire, Xu Yuming decided to give them a chance to choose. If they could give in on their own, leaving the mountain gate spiritual veins and minerals. , and let them leave.
