Chapter 231 The dispute between trading houses

Practicing the Barbaric Armor Technique can be combined with the body tempering pill used for body refining. However, Lu Changsheng is no longer the same as when he first came to the spirit world. Plus, with Baiyun Pavilion's backing, there is no need to save resources.

In daily practice of the Barbaric Armor Technique, I would use high-grade elixirs to practice. If I had the materials, I would also refine the top-grade adamantium elixirs myself.

In the blink of an eye, two months passed.

The past two months have been relatively peaceful. Since the last time Taoist Hongyun appeared in Baiqi Medicine Garden, his whereabouts were exposed and he was surrounded and suppressed by the Gu family ancestors.

I heard that I almost died many times.

Regarding this, Lu Changsheng was also deeply moved. Taoist Hongyun was worthy of being a top figure under the Foundation Establishment, and he was able to escape from such an encirclement and suppression.

Ask yourself, if it were you, you would have been killed long ago.

But Lu Changsheng knew that this situation would not continue, because just two days ago, he learned from Yu Hai and Wang Futian that a foundation-building overhaul from Taixuan Sect had arrived in Baijing Immortal City.

There is still a big gap between the foundation building in the Immortal Sect and the foundation building of the family power. The Immortal Sect's Immortal Overhaul has better methods of immortal magic, and its magic power is stronger than the general Foundation Building Overhaul.

This is due to the quality of the immortal magic they practice.

"I wonder why Taoist Hongyun is unwilling to leave here?" Lu Changsheng thought to himself. Although he was very curious, he also understood that no matter what, it had nothing to do with him.

After two months of practicing at all costs, the Barbarian Armor Technique has reached a critical point. At night, there was a banging sound, but it was him who used the puppet beast to forge his body.

Black shadows kept exploding in the yard, and they were the dancing figures of the huge black water snakes.

Li Guanggu stood aside and looked nervously at Lu Changsheng, who was shirtless on the field. He held a talisman in his hand, which he could shoot out if he saw a bad opportunity.

Although the Black Water Black Snake was controlled by Lu Changsheng, it was still a puppet in the late stage of Qi training. She was worried that Lu Changsheng would be unable to control the power when he first started using it.

But after seeing Lu Changsheng choose a step-by-step and prudent strategy, she felt relieved and put the talisman paper into the treasure house of fairy insects.

The tail of the Black Water Black Snake struck Lu Changsheng one after another. The latter was performing a standing posture, and the magic power in his body was operating in a unique way. Gradually, a faint layer of cortex appeared on his body.

After a long time, he removed the black water snake and let it coil along the wall.

A layer of gray cortex has appeared on the body, which looks like a layer of scales.

This is the embodiment of getting started with Barbarian Armor.

"Physical Technique: Barbarian Armor Technique (First Grade Superior):

It takes 2 months to get started.

The time required for success is 3 years.

The time required for completion is 10 years.

The time required for perfection is 30 years.

The practice of magic is obviously much better than that of immortality. If it is a high-grade one, it only takes 16 years to complete it.

If ordinary monks knew that Lu Changsheng practiced physical skills such as Barbarian Armor, and it only took 16 years to perfect them, they would definitely be shocked.

You must know that physical skills are easy to learn but difficult to master. If you want to be successful, it is much more difficult than other spells of the same level.

Looking at the red mark on his upper body, Li Guanggu felt extremely distressed.

Physical skills require constant polishing of the physical body in order to fully unblock the blood vessels. It is okay not to do this, but the speed of practice will be reduced to an extreme.

She knew that Lu Changsheng was unwilling to stop at the qi training realm, and even trying to dissuade him was useless. She could only take out the prepared topical ointment and apply it slowly on him.

"How's the business at the alchemy shop?" Feeling the cool touch on his body, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but moan in comfort, but his mind was on business.

He and Pumpkin were able to calm down and practice, and the operation of the alchemy store was indispensable. Therefore, even if they were busy, they would occasionally ask about it.

Li Guanggu knew this, and said: "Under the influence of Taoist Hongyun, the elixir shop has tightened its elixir business scope. I am afraid that the income in the past few months will be reduced a lot."

"There is nothing we can do about it, but the matter with Taoist Hongyun should be resolved soon."

Li Guanggu nodded.

With the real person of Taixuan Sect taking action, Taoist Hongyun will no longer be able to cause any trouble.

However, what happened was completely beyond Lu Changsheng's and Li Guanggu's expectations.

A few days later, Lu Changsheng, who was practicing the Barbaric Armor Technique, suddenly learned that Taoist Hongyun had been blocked on the Black Smoke Mountain.

"The Black Smoke Mountain is full of rocks, which is a good place to hide. Unfortunately, for a foundation-building major cultivator, it is just a little troublesome." He stopped practicing and a smile appeared on his face.

Taoist Hongyun's ruthless attacks have plunged the entire Baijing Immortal City into a state of panic. Although there are some people with evil intentions fishing in troubled waters, Taoist Hongyun's ability to escape can also be seen.

Lu Changsheng estimated that the other party's life-saving methods were definitely outstanding.

This also gave him an idea, and his practice of physical skills was also based on this idea.

Of course, there are also reasons why he has reached a bottleneck in other ways and has no choice but to do so.

With Hongyun Taoist being destroyed soon, Lu Changsheng was unsettled and rarely put aside his practice to have dinner with his family.

Unexpectedly, during the dinner, a strange monk came to visit, which made Lu Changsheng's heart suddenly thump.

The other party held a piece of letterhead and carefully handed it into Lu Changsheng's hands.

Lu Changsheng asked who sent it, but the person said: "The other party didn't explain it clearly. He just asked me to bring the letter to the Immortal, saying that you will know after reading the letter."

Lu Changsheng glanced at the other person, who had a trace of longing in his eyes, and asked Lu Changan to take a spiritual stone and give it to him.

The latter immediately left with great joy. Although a spiritual stone was not much, the distance he had sent the letter was not far, which was enough to pay the reward.

"Sure enough, everything went wrong." Lu Changsheng used his magic power and tore open the letter.

When I saw the contents inside, I couldn't help but sigh.

Lu Changan looked at him doubtfully, "Father, who sent this letter?"

"It's your Uncle Yu!" Lu Changsheng quickly read the contents of the letter, and the magic power surged in his palm, forming a ball of flame and burning the letter.

"But what's important?" Lu Changan's expression became serious.

Although Yu Hai and Wang Futian followed out of the city to eliminate Taoist Hongyun, if everything went well, they would be able to return to Baijing Fairy City in a few days. If there was nothing important, how could they say it in a letter?

Lu Changsheng said solemnly: "The encirclement and suppression has failed!"

Lu Changan was shocked: "How is this possible!"

The ancestor of the Gu family alone and more than a dozen late Qi practitioners pushed Taoist Hongyun to the point of near despair. Now, coupled with the foundation construction overhaul of Taixuan Sect, under the premise that Taoist Hongyun's whereabouts are exposed, logically speaking, there should not be any The surprise is.

But after Lu Changan thought about it, he felt something was wrong, "Even if the crackdown fails, it won't have much impact on us."

The alchemy shop is closed, and at most the income will be reduced. Lu Changan knows his father's temperament, and he will never feel too much regret about this kind of thing.

Why are you so out of sorts?

"The Overhaul of Taixuan Sect must have discovered something, so he asked for help from Taixuan Sect, and the new Overhaul is related to Zhu Qing."

Lu Changan suddenly realized that there was just a trace of luck in his heart, "Isn't the person Zhu Qingpan is a deacon at the ninth level of Qi training? How could he interfere in such a trivial matter with his status as a foundation-building major?"

In the final analysis, there is a huge difference between foundation building and qi training. And who can become a foundation building and has lived for more than a hundred years?

Zhu Qing's skills are quite impressive, but they seem a bit low-level in front of the foundation-building overhaul. There is no need for the foundation-building monks to take action against them.

"I hope so, but I have to beware that you guys will temporarily settle down at Liuli Trading Company during this period," Lu Changsheng said.

If it weren't for the danger of going out now, he would have wanted a few people to leave Baijing Fairy City temporarily. Unfortunately, Taoist Hongyun had not been eliminated, so this move would be much more dangerous than staying in the city.

As Lu Changan said, Zhu Qing's influence should not be able to influence the thoughts of a Taixuan Sect foundation-building overhaul.

Even if Foundation Establishment Overhaul is not happy, he will not attack him head-on in the fairy city.

"After all, my status is still poor. If I were a second-grade alchemist or a foundation-building monk, I wouldn't be like this."

A second-grade alchemist, her status is higher than that of ordinary foundation builders. No matter how much she masters Zhu Qing Emperor's skills, she can't compete with him.

"Just wait until the date agreed upon by the people from Fentian Valley arrives." He thought to himself.

Soon, Li Gugua took the Lu family members to pack their things and prepared to go to Liuli Trading Company.

As a guest of Liuli Trading Company, Lu Changsheng had some place to stay there.

But before that, Lu Changsheng said hello to Liu Yun in advance.

It's a matter related to Master Ji Zhu. If we don't make it clear in advance, it will make things worse after the incident occurs.

But just when he arrived at Liuli Trading Company, he ran into the follower beside Liu Yun.

The other party's expression was hurried and he almost collided with Lu Changsheng.

"Master Lu! You came just in time."

He was anxious when he saw it was Lu Changsheng, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's going on, Fellow Daoist Fu?"

This person's name is Fu Chen, and he is honorably Liu Yun's bodyguard. In fact, this person is just following Liu Yun as a bodyguard.

Lu Changsheng had heard that this person was somewhat related to Liu Yun by blood, but he didn't know whether he was a direct descendant or a cousin.

"Someone from my Liuli Trading Company came to check the accounts. They found Master Lu. The other party said that Uncle Liu was getting paid."

Fu Chen made a mistake in a hurry and revealed his relationship with Liu Yun. He realized that he had made a mistake after saying it. However, now that the matter was over, there was nothing to turn back. He could only deal with it and let Lu Changsheng rush over to deal with it.

"It seems that Liu Yun is not having an easy time at Liuli Trading Company." Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He knew that he had unintentionally been involved in some internal struggles of Liuli Trading Company, but this was not the time to regret it, otherwise, if word spread, it would be a big stain on his reputation.

Inside the trading house, in a lobby, a tall and thin monk sat on a chair, his palms placed on a jade book.

The jade book should be the account book of the trading company. Several monks in charge of registering the book stood aside with drooped eyes, looking like they were taking a nap.

On the other side, Liu Yun stood together with several deputy stewards, occasionally showing different expressions, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"The income of Baijing Fairy City has been declining in recent years. Fellow Daoist Liu, you cannot shirk your responsibility!"

The expression of the monk in front of the case was not stern, but rather filled with emotion.

Liu Yun had some connections no matter what. Since he was absolutely sure to remove him from his position, there was no need to sarcastically make the other party lose the last bit of dignity.

As a commercial bank supervisor who is good at dealing with people, he naturally knows how to deal with things appropriately, especially since this is still related to the dispute between the two bosses of the commercial bank.

Even though Liu Yun is not a major figure, he still represents the face of that young lady.

Liu Yun looked bitter and said: "There is a reason for this. Hongyun Taoist blocked the main travel gateways in various places, so it caused-"

"I can understand, but this cannot actually be regarded as a reason. Every manager of the Xiancheng branch may face various situations. Dealing with such situations is a necessary experience for your management."

"We just look at the results."

The tall and thin monk shook his head and sighed, and listed some similar examples. In those cases, those immortal city stewards had encountered similar situations, but in the end they were demoted and lost their stewardship.

"Fellow Daoist Liu Yun, it was emphasized above that management must be forward-looking, but your performance is far behind."

"This time, someone else reported you for taking free money, so do you have anything to say?"

The tall and thin monk paused and said.

The matter of being paid for free was not something he wanted to mention, but someone else. The other person was a subordinate of another adult in the business firm, and it was something he had told him before he left.

He must bring it up, otherwise, it will be difficult to do things in the business in the future.

In order not to offend Liu Yun's family, he also deliberately distanced himself from the relationship.

"Impossible, all the spiritual stones in the branch are used with reasonable justification!"

Liu Yun took a deep breath, knowing that this was an enemy's offensive method.

The so-called "empty salary" is actually a very common phenomenon in commercial firms, and many of them are used for payment and gift giving.

This phenomenon is an unspoken rule among the branches in various fairy cities, and few people will use this matter to criticize their managers.

Unless the people behind them are at an extreme disadvantage.

Thinking of this, Liu Yun felt cold in his heart.

“So where did these resources go?”

The tall and thin monk frowned and revealed some of the contents in the jade book.

"On March 5 last year, pieces of Guiyuan Dan materials were paid out from the treasury, but nothing was recorded."

"On March 10, Guiyuan Dan materials were paid out from the treasury, but no corresponding Guiyuan Dan was recorded in the account."

······

The tall and thin monk's expression turned cold.

It is certain that the young lady’s lineage will be eliminated, and Liuli Trading Company will be dominated by another lineage in the future.

Now that he has lost power, and it is undeniable that Bai Jingxian City's income has dropped significantly, in his opinion, Liu Yun simply admitted it and accepted the punishment. Why is he so stubborn?

Looking at Liu Yun, not only did the latter show no signs of panic, but his eyes lit up.

"This inspector has wrongly blamed me. These resources are spent well-reasoned."

"Look below."

The tall and thin monk looked down and saw statistics at the bottom: the above expenses were at the hands of Alchemist Lu.

"Alchemist Lu? Who is this person?"

There was no change in his expression.

According to his understanding, there is no powerful alchemist named Lu in Baijing Immortal City. Even if there is a second-class alchemist in recent years, it will not consume so many materials.

In short, the "materials used by Alchemist Lu" recorded in the jade book have exceeded the scope of supply to second-class alchemists. (End of chapter)
