The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 133 Low-grade magic weapon, a complete Heavenly Book Stele

Then, Qin Hao shook his head.

"It must be my misunderstanding."

How old is Senior Ao Hui?

Before the Great Xia Dynasty was even established, Senior Ao Hui had already taken human form.

It's just that because of the innate dragon vein, it was both made and destroyed by the dragon vein.

Because Ao Hui is a manifestation of an innate dragon vein, although he possesses great innate strength.

However, they are confined to the vicinity of the dragon vein and cannot easily leave.

This is why Ao Hui was tricked by the Great Xia Emperor and ultimately suppressed the demon realm passage here.

How could Ao Hui, who is so old, possibly have a childish voice?
He chuckled self-deprecatingly, then turned and went back to his palace.

Although his second primordial spirit has not yet hatched, and he is not a dragon himself.

But since he has entered the Dragon Palace and become its master, he is now the Dragon King.

It is only right that they reside in the Dragon King's palace.

Moreover, this is the passage to Ao Hui's location, and Qin Hao will definitely want to occupy this place.

Upon arriving at the palace, Qin Hao sat cross-legged.

Soon his soul left his body and reappeared, now inside the passage he had visited before.

Wisps of demonic energy were still spreading, but this time, Qin Hao was no longer aroused.

One is that his spirit is more focused and his state of mind has improved.

This bit of demonic energy was not enough to stir his mind.

Another one is that the previous time, it was because Ao Hui took action, otherwise Qin Hao would not have been corrupted by this demonic energy and fallen into the illusion.

"It seems I still need to cultivate properly. I need to study the 'Hundred Flowers Secret Strategy' that Master Illusion Butterfly King gave me carefully."

This "Hundred Flowers Secret Strategy" is the signature secret technique of the Illusionary Butterfly King, and it was created by her herself.

Cultivating this "Hundred Flowers Secret Strategy" can enhance one's illusion skills and improve one's strength as a mentalist and illusionist.

In addition, it also helps to improve one's state of mind and spiritual well-being.

Along the way, Qin Hao also discovered something strange.

"what?"

That tiny bit of demonic energy was actually absorbed by the Primordial Mirror.

Or rather, it was absorbed by the Spirit Pool, a functional building of the Primordial Mirror.

This?
Qin Hao was startled. Would this thing pollute his spiritual pool?

If this gets contaminated, the spiritual plants in the herb garden and the world ring will all be affected.

However, after pausing for a while and observing carefully, Qin Hao discovered that the spiritual liquid in the spirit pool showed no signs of contamination.

"It seems like everything should be alright?"

This Primordial Mirror is indeed a supreme treasure, and its level of value is quite high.

It can even absorb and transform demonic energy.

It should be noted that even Ao Hui, a dragon king who was born with a dragon vein, was definitely at the fourth level of strength, and might even have the characteristics of a celestial being.

However, it is not easy for it to absorb and transform demonic energy.

Her approach was primarily one of suppression.

"Kid, what are you dawdling for?"

Ao Hui's slightly impatient voice came through the phone, and Qin Hao wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Ao Hui's voice still sounded a little immature.

Shaking his head, Qin Hao felt like he was going crazy.

Although it's said that a woman's age is a secret and shouldn't be asked.

However, more than 10,000 years have passed, and it is unknown how long Ao Hui existed before the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty.

This actual age doesn't lie.

"coming."

Qin Hao shouted, then quickened his pace and soon arrived at the place where Ao Hui was entrenched.

This dragon was extremely large; in any case, Qin Hao couldn't see exactly how big Ao Hui's body was.

"By the way, Senior Ao Hui. This time, I brought you a few more puppets at the third realm."

As he spoke, Qin Hao took out five more Domain Lord-level puppets.

Ao Hui's eyes suddenly lit up.

The demonic energy is secondary; since she can't leave the dragon vein for the time being anyway, she'll just be sleeping here.

It wouldn't be unreasonable to suppress the demonic energy and the demonic passage at the same time.

And there are advantages to this as well.

merit.

It was precisely because of this that Ao Hui only verbally cursed him as an old geezer.

She did not resist.

However, it wasn't without its troubles.

The demonic energy and the little devils from the demon realm cannot affect the overall situation, but they are like maggots clinging to the bone, impossible to remove.

I can't even sleep peacefully.

This is the reason why Ao Huixin harbored resentment.

At this moment, the puppet that Qin Hao brought to her, although she didn't know why Qin Hao hadn't left, was able to produce these things.

Ao Hui was still very happy and felt very comforted.

Then, Ao Hui raised its tail, and a rustic scent immediately wafted over.

Qin Hao naturally noticed such a commotion.

This?
Qin Hao was startled.

I had experienced this once before at the Great Xia Imperial Palace.

"The Heavenly Book Stele?"

It is still a complete, undamaged Heavenly Book Stele.

Although he had never seen the incomplete Heavenly Book Stele.

However, within the Enlightenment Pavilion, a functional building within his Primordial Mirror, there are some incomplete Heavenly Book Steles.

Even the most complete dish is only 35%, far from 100%.

Even Qin Hao didn't know if his Primordial Mirror could completely replicate the Daoist essence of the Heavenly Book Stele.

At this moment, he was extremely excited.

"Senior Ao Hui?"

Qin Hao's voice trembled slightly as he thought to himself, "Since Senior Ao Hui summoned me, she's gotten too cocky."

Surely you're not joking about yourself, are you?
"Senior, what is this?"

"The Heavenly Book Stele, I suppose you should know about it. I even sensed its presence on you before."

As he spoke, Ao Hui flicked his tail and casually rolled the Heavenly Book Stele over.

"I've given it to you."

"Give it to me?" Qin Hao was taken aback. He had originally thought that Ao Hui would at most give him a few opportunities to comprehend the Heavenly Book Stele.

To everyone's surprise, the other party gave it to him directly.

"Give it to me?"

Qin Hao's appearance amused Ao Hui.

The laughter was like silver bells, or like large and small pearls falling on a jade plate.

However, what Qin Hao found somewhat strange was this voice?

"Just grab your stuff and go."

As Ao Hui curled its tail, Qin Hao felt a tremendous force come from it, and his soul was sent flying uncontrollably.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back on the dragon bed.

That Heavenly Book Stele is right above the dragon bed.

Qin Hao thought about Ao Hui's voice just now, and her somewhat embarrassed and angry reaction afterwards.

Qin Hao's expression was somewhat strange: "Could this be?"

The girl with the giant face... no, she hasn't transformed yet, so I can't see her clearly.

Qin Hao had only seen Ao Hui in his dragon form, and had never seen him in his human form.

"What are you thinking?"

Ao Hui's angry and embarrassed voice came through, and my ears stung.

Qin Hao composed himself, not wanting to show off too much.

This is a powerful figure from the fourth realm; his strength is extraordinary.

It is also a manifestation of the innate dragon vein, and its strength is further enhanced when it is near the dragon vein.

It might even be no worse than the Illusionary Butterfly King.

They are no less impressive than those celestial beings.

Not to be offended.

He turned his head and looked at the Heavenly Book Stele again.

This thing is definitely a natural treasure.

The grade is undetermined.

Qin Hao thought that among the treasures he possessed, only the Primordial Mirror and the Golden Thread Treasure could compare.

Nothing else can compare.

"Wow, it's quite heavy."

Qin Hao thought back to how Ao Hui had casually rolled up the Heavenly Book Stele with a flick of her tail.

Qin Hao thought it would be very light.

He possessed a considerable amount of internal energy and was also quite strong.

But when he tried to grab it, he couldn't get it down.

"this?"

However, Qin Hao soon realized that the Heavenly Book Stele was an innate magic treasure, and he couldn't grasp it without refining it.

Unless he is very strong, reaching the level of Ao Hui.

Even more remarkably, Ao Hui was able to roll up the Heavenly Book Stele so casually.

Perhaps the dragon vein also played a role?
The next moment, the Primordial Mirror emitted a beam of light, which landed on the Heavenly Book Stele.

The next second, the Heavenly Book Stele rapidly shrank and was then absorbed into Qin Hao's ancestral aperture between his eyebrows.

They landed inside the Enlightenment Pavilion.

A bit of information from the Heavenly Book Stele was also transmitted into Qin Hao's mind by the Primordial Mirror.

"The Heavenly Book Stele? Primarily of Yin and Yang attributes, but also includes light and darkness."

Or rather, yin and yang are the outward appearance, concealing both light and darkness.

Qin Hao's heart stirred: "I didn't know how to recruit Luo, the Lord of the Time Realm, before, but now it seems like a very good opportunity."

Although the Heavenly Book Stele is a symbol of the Dao, containing the three thousand Great Daos, almost all of them are contained within it.

Qin Hao had previously studied the Heavenly Book Stele Forest in the Great Xia Imperial Palace and copied a portion of the Heavenly Book Stele's Daoist essence.

There was also a Heavenly Book Stele among them, which was mainly about light.

Qin Hao originally intended to use that one piece, but now that he has a complete Heavenly Book Stele, it seems to be a better choice.

However, Qin Hao then shook his head.

"No, it's not good to give this complete Heavenly Book Stele to the other party on the first try."

The Heavenly Book Stele has a great effect, although the illusory Heavenly Book Stele images in his Enlightenment Pavilion are probably not as good as the Chaos Stele in Chaos City of the Swallowed Star World for the time being.

However, Qin Hao felt that a complete, physical Heavenly Book Stele should not be inferior to that one.

It's possible to be even better than that.

After all, this is an innate magic weapon.

At the same time, Qin Hao also understood something.

This Heavenly Book Stele is not only a good thing for enlightenment, but also a magic weapon.

Its repressive power is also extremely strong.

Upon encountering the opponent, they immediately unleashed the Heavenly Book Stele to suppress them.

It was like Mount Tai pressing down on you; ordinary enemies simply couldn't withstand it.

However, this function is far inferior to the function of enlightenment.

Moreover, there is the risk of it being locked up or stolen.

Therefore, the Great Xia royal family never considered using the Heavenly Book Stele as a magic weapon to attack the enemy.

At the same time, every once in a while, this Heavenly Book Stele would gather Daoist energy, forming something called the Enlightenment Stone.

This thing can also be used as a consumable or as an aid to enlightenment.

"Is this still a production-related magic weapon?"

The Great Xia royal family has accumulated countless Enlightenment Stones over the past ten thousand years.

As expected, the Great Xia royal family must be full of experts.

Behind the scenes, countless experts have been gathered.

Qin Hao knew nothing about these things.

Others may not know either.

Even my grandfather, Qin Zhenyuan, might not have known this.

It's still too low-level.

"I wonder if Senior Ao Hui still has any?"

What does it mean to be greedy for more after gaining something?

This is.

Having just received one from Ao Hui, Qin Hao immediately wondered if Ao Hui might have a second one.

He was also curious about where Ao Hui had obtained the Heavenly Book Stele.

"Could it be that when the Heavenly Book Stele fell back then, the Great Xia Emperor pursued its trail and came to the Qianyang Realm? At that time, another Heavenly Book Stele happened to fall here at Pengze Lake, and was seized by Ao Hui?"

If that's the case, then the Great Xia Emperor's visit here wasn't solely for the Demon Realm passage.

Perhaps, they came for this Heavenly Book Stele as well.

At that very moment, within his sea of ​​consciousness, the Star-Guiding Boat completed its advancement.

"this?"

Looking at the precious light emanating from the Star-Guiding Boat, Qin Hao made a rough assessment and was overjoyed.

"It was originally a high-grade spiritual artifact, but now it has an extra fragment. After the advancement, it has been upgraded to a low-grade magic weapon?"

After advancing, it's not just the quality of the magic weapon that improves.

Both attack and defense capabilities have been greatly enhanced.

Originally, there were seven star-guided cannons on each side, but now the number has doubled to 21 on each side.

Moreover, its power has increased, more than three times that of the original.

In addition, the speed at which the Star-Guiding Boat condenses star silver has increased several times, and the quality of the condensed star silver has also improved significantly.

"It seems that this newly condensed star silver can be used to refine magic weapons of the third realm."

"I never expected such a good thing to happen."

Qin Hao closed his eyes and meditated.

Gradually, he calmed down the excitement in his mind and began to cultivate again.

Spiritual practice can never stop.

The following day, Qin Hao gathered the top experts on the leaderboard who had challenged him along the way and then followed him.

"Brother Qin, you summoned us?"

As the former number one on the leaderboard, Vajra Sword, now leading the others, asked the question.

Their eyes held hope.

Qin Hao is powerful and possesses the Dragon Palace of Pengze Lake, which is filled with treasures.

The four elements of spiritual practice are wealth, companionship, Dharma, and environment.

For now, they have no shortage of cultivation methods, and since Di has followed Qin Hao, they can be considered to have them.

The cultivation environment of Pengze Lake Dragon Palace is quite good, with abundant water-related spiritual energy, as well as other types of spiritual energy, and the internal strength level is not low.

And now I have a partner.

"Lü" means "partner in the Way," or more narrowly, "husband and wife."

In a broad sense, a Daoist partner is a fellow traveler who supports each other during the process of cultivating and seeking the Dao.

Qin Hao could serve as their Daoist partner, supporting and guiding each other.

What we lack most is actually money.

The surrounding environment is indeed nice, but spiritual practice cannot be limited to sitting meditation.

Under the same conditions, others have materials to aid their cultivation.

Lighting the incense for tranquility provides materials that enhance enlightenment.

Naturally, his cultivation speed cannot compare to others.

Not to mention, in ten days, oh, starting today, it will be nine days from now.

They were about to set off for Fuyu County.

When it comes to fighting with others, are you going to fight them bare-handed?

Song Fugui, who was on the other side, did not speak. He was the young master of Futong Money Shop and his family was very wealthy.

The magical treasures in their pockets far outnumbered their spirit stones.

Moreover, the methods of Futong Money Shop, those Great Xia Tongbao coins rich in precious energy, could also be used to create numerous magical treasures and talismans. Qin Hao also understood their eyes and their gaze.

That's why I've summoned them here today.

Qin Hao chuckled and then waved his hand.

Numerous magical treasures, talismans, spirit stones, raw materials, and other items were scattered on the ground.

Although Qin Hao did not speak, his meaning was self-evident.

"This?" Vajra Sword was also taken aback, then overjoyed.

Although he was not poor, he had a considerable number of spirit swords at his disposal.

But that's all.

Those spirit swords were something he obtained only after going through tremendous effort and painstaking thought.

But apart from those spirit swords, he had no other magical treasures.

Sword cultivators make it sound nice, devoting their emotions to the sword, their deepest feelings to the sword, and having nothing else besides the sword.

But did he really only want the sword?
He would also like some protective artifacts if he had the resources.

Besides, he would like to upgrade those spirit swords if he had the spare money.

If he could possess several spirit swords of the treasure level.

When I fought with that Jiechen before, even if I couldn't win, I might still be able to break through his defenses.

Even if the opponent were a reincarnation of Vajra, they shouldn't have lost so badly.

As for Qin Hao?

The Vajra Sword smiled bitterly.

That one was at least a reincarnation of Vajra, a celestial being reincarnated.

But what about Qin Hao?

There was no prior information that Qin Hao was also a reincarnation of a powerful immortal.

But Qin Hao's strength was truly formidable; at that moment, he even sensed a hint of impending death.

He only found out later that Qin Hao had gained the approval of two spirit swords at Tengwang Pavilion the night before he came here.

Those two spirit swords even resembled Dao artifacts.

That kind of being, without Qin Hao's intervention, could kill itself through a self-defense.

It doesn't even require much effort.

Qin Hao noticed that everyone was quite agitated, and Song Fugui wasn't in much better shape either.

Qin Hao waved his hand and said, "You can divide it among yourselves. Next, we'll be heading to Fuyu County, where we'll need your help. There might even be a battle of magic. Find the ones that suit you best and take them back to refine them."

As soon as Qin Hao finished speaking, the others immediately surrounded him.

Although there was no panic buying, people were quick to act.

Qin Hao glanced back at Song Fugui, who was itching to make a move, and said with a smile, "You, the young master of Futong Money House, are not short of money. You want it too?"

Song Fugui pouted: "Who wouldn't want something that's free?"

Therefore, the richer a person is, the stingier they tend to be.

Given any opportunity, Song Fugui would not let any source of income slip by.

Of course, when it really comes down to it, Song Fugui isn't a petty person.

He is also very generous when it comes to investing in others.

Qin Hao is not stingy either. He owns two realms, and although his wealth may not be comparable to that of Futong Bank for the time being.

But sooner or later, it will be able to surpass it.

Moreover, this is only two realms; there is another world that is also approaching.

At that time, possessing all three realms, one's wealth will naturally increase.

"Go ahead, pick whatever you like."

Qin Hao had previously visited the Dragon Palace Treasury and retrieved a considerable number of magical treasures.

Although Qin Hao also had the idea of ​​making a profit from this, it was also to arm his own people.

Song Fugui's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Really, go ahead."

Qin Hao nodded with a smile.

What's a small investment like this?
If one is practicing spiritual cultivation alone, one doesn't need so much wealth.

If I were to ascend to heaven in the future...

Upon arriving in the celestial realm, it's time to start all over again.

If there is a group of followers, they can ascend together.

Upon arriving in the Immortal Realm, he was not penniless.

Even if we have to work hard then, we'll have the foundation.

In order to ensure he has manpower available in the future, Qin Hao also plans to support more people.

Among these followers and collaborators, Song Fugui is considered one of the more promising.

Vajra Sword also has a chance. This person was a rogue cultivator before, yet he managed to dominate the top spot on the Human Ranking for many years.

He has good aptitude; he just lacked guidance from renowned teachers and sufficient resources in the past.

I have plenty of these myself.

In the future, Vajra Sword will be a capable subordinate.

As for the others, it's not clear yet.

But those who can be listed on the human list are not ordinary people, and they may have a chance to ascend to immortality in the future.

"However, the most noteworthy one is actually Xie Lingyun."

Xie Lingyun is a woman who harbors a great secret.

He vividly remembers the way the surrounding environment rejected him when he fought Xie Lingyun that day.

Leaving aside that day, even in recent days, Xie Lingyun has been surrounded by a great deal of spiritual energy.

Ordinary people might not be able to tell.

But Qin Hao had a vague feeling that this woman was extraordinary.

"Kid, keep an eye on that girl. She's got quite a background."

At this moment, Qin Hao heard Ao Hui's voice again.

Qin Hao was taken aback and quickly asked, "Senior, are you talking about Xie Lingyun? What is her background?"

Qin Hao had a vague feeling that something was unusual about this person and thought that this person's background was extraordinary.

But Qin Hao had no idea what its origins were.

Ao Hui's voice did not come out, and Qin Hao asked her repeatedly, but Ao Hui did not say anything more.

Is he still bothered by his previous idea?
How stingy.

However, he dared not voice this thought aloud.

What if this old... senior, starts to hate me again?

I was sad afterwards.

This old... senior, really.

However, Qin Hao also confirmed that Xie Lingyun was indeed of extraordinary origin.

"Even if he isn't like Jiechen of Tianning Temple, or a reincarnation of a celestial being, he won't be too bad."

Qin Hao even suspected that this person's background might be even more astonishing than that of Jie Chen.

He simply didn't know the other party's background.

"Does the sect leader of Diancang Sect, and those elders, know about this?"

Are there any officials from the Great Xia Dynasty who are aware of this?

Anyway, his grandfather Qin Zhenyuan definitely didn't know.

It's still too low-level.

Ok?
Just then, the Golden Thread Treasure had also completed its fusion.

After all, they were once one entity. When they returned to each other, they didn't even need him to refine them. The golden thread treasure automatically combined and restored some of its original essence.

Not only does it greatly increase strength, it can even be used to lock down enemies.

However, Qin Hao probably wouldn't dare to use this function.

The world of Great Xia is a complex place, and once it is used, it is easy to attract attention.

The same applies to the world of Swallowed Star.

If your strength is too low and you use a magic weapon that far exceeds your capabilities, it's no wonder you attract attention.

He also has powerful backers in the Great Xia world, including Ao Hui, though it's impossible for everyone to know about her.

But prominent figures, such as Emperor Hengming of Xia, certainly knew about it.

Qin Hao would be in a much better situation when facing these people.

I'm afraid of some hotheads.

I don't know when you're afraid, nor do I know your true nature.

Furthermore, there are some desperate people who will do anything for money.

If anyone knew Qin Hao had something good, they could steal it and become incredibly wealthy, never having to worry about anything again.

This one job is worth countless others.

They'll definitely be targeted even more.

The fact that he possesses two spirit swords has not yet spread. If it did, he would be watched closely when he went out.

If you add the gold thread treasure, it will be even more troublesome.

I'm afraid even Emperor Hengming might have some designs on it.

This is a priceless treasure.

People from the fairy realm would all covet it.

"However, this way, we can get closer to the new world and find it faster. Hopefully, we can find it before then, and perhaps it can even give back to us. At that time, we will have a better chance in the battle of the universe's top geniuses."

Qin Hao felt a surge of pride: "I'm determined to take first place in this genius battle."

The number of slots for the Primal Secret Realm may increase by one, likely due to the presence of Death God Berlan.

But what Qin Hao wanted wasn't the extra one, but the rightful number one, the one that was originally his only one.

At this moment, at Futong Money Shop, Song Yuanbao sat at his desk, recording recent events.

"Pengze Lake Dragon Palace, it was a good project. It's a pity, but it's also good. With this opportunity, Fugui can lay the most solid foundation. Maybe in the future he can also ascend to heaven in broad daylight like his ancestors."

After thinking it over, Song Yuanbao decided to invest in this collaborative project once again.

“Earth masters, plant masters, and even alchemists can all be sent to provide support.”

So Song Yuanbao added a line to the account.

As for the accounts, they remained unchanged.

"In this world, the most expensive thing is free. Giving away gold ingots and wealth is indeed giving away gold ingots and wealth. But how could you know that we can also get something in return from you?"

From an economic perspective, this is investment.

Just like his son, Song Fugui, who has been the gatekeeper of the list of successful candidates for so long and has helped countless people.

There had been no reward before, but Song Fugui was never stingy and never complained.

This is how I met Qin Hao.

The development of Pengze Lake is a reward.

This development of the Lingtian area in Pengze Lake is also a collaborative effort.

Futong Money House spared no expense in its investment, whether in terms of geomancy or resources.

It's uncertain how much reward there will be in the future.

Song Yuanbao felt that this was an excellent opportunity with a very high rate of return.

That's how they are when they're making investments; they're likely to lose money on many projects.

But if just one project is right, the return will be a thousand times over.

After thinking for a moment, Song Yuanbao called the steward in again.

A short while later, a chubby middle-aged man walked in.

Judging from his cultivation level, he was clearly at the third realm.

"Shopkeeper, did you call me?"

Song Yuanbao nodded, exchanged a few pleasantries, and asked, "By the way, Yuande, are you aware of the situation in the capital?"

The manager nodded. He was originally in charge of liaising with the capital, so he naturally knew about the situation there.

Yuan De nodded: "Shopkeeper, what do you mean?"

Since the shopkeeper asked about this, he must have some plans regarding the situation in the capital.

The shopkeeper doesn't even glance at transactions involving thousands of spirit stones per second, so asking about the capital city is obviously not a casual inquiry.

Yuan De was also worried that he might have done something wrong.

Otherwise, why would the shopkeeper ask this question?
Song Yuanbao gestured with his hand: "Don't worry, I'm not trying to question you. I just want to ask, do you know the Qin family of Shen Du?"

"The Qin family? Which Qin family?" Yuan De was taken aback, then suddenly remembered the young grandson of the Qin family that Song Fugui, the young master of Futong Money Shop, had recently been following.

"Does the shopkeeper mean the Qin family of Qin Zhenyuan, the Earl of Anyuan in the capital?"

The master of Pengze Lake also heard about it.

Even within the imperial court, some people have mentioned whether or not an official title should be bestowed upon them.

However, it was ultimately rejected by the cabinet.

Indeed, Pengze Lake is not under the jurisdiction of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Without Emperor Hengming's approval, the cabinet dared not make a decision.

If the person refuses the title, how embarrassing would that be for the imperial court?
Yuan De's heart stirred; it seemed the Qin family was about to rise to prominence.

As for who was the most powerful person in the Great Xia Dynasty, people might not be able to say for sure.

Some say he was the elder brother of Consort Cao, the maternal uncle of the emperor.

Some say he is the Prime Minister, while others say he is the current Deputy Prime Minister or the future Prime Minister.

Of course, the leader of the noble families of the capital, the Grand Duke of Shenwei, was also among them.

But if we're talking about who was the richest in the Great Xia Dynasty...

The Song family of Futong Money Shop had virtually no objections.

Judging from the shopkeeper's tone, is he planning to give the other party a promotion?

How could Song Yuanbao not understand Yuan De's inner thoughts?
He didn't say much more: "Tell me about the Qin family's situation."

Yuan De thought for a moment and then gave a general account of the Qin family's affairs.

"Wait, you mean... the Qin family owns a Hundred Treasures Pavilion?"

“Hmm.” Yuan De nodded, understanding in his heart that the manager intended to support Baizhenlou: “However, Baizhenlou is managed by Chu Xiuying, the wife of the Marquis of Anyuan and a native of the Marquis of Wuling.”

Futong Money Shop had both money and connections, making it fast and reliable to transport goods from all directions to the capital.

"The Marquis of Wuling's residence? Doesn't that mean it's related to the Dragon Palace of Luoxing Lake in Fuyu County? Hmm... then you should make preparations to strengthen cooperation with Baizhenlou in the future."

Yuan De was taken aback. He had figured it out, but he didn't know how to bring it up.

Baizhenlou was just a small shop; how could it possibly cooperate with Futong Money Exchange?
It can be said that even the most downstream of the forces that cooperated with Futong Bank might not be able to rank among Baizhenlou.

But that was before.

After that, Baizhenlou became extraordinary.

The capital city, the residence of the Marquis of Anyuan.

Chu Xiuying had a smile on her face.

Qin Zhenyuan asked, "What happened?"

Chu Xiuying smiled and said, "News came from Pengze Lake that Hao'er's cultivation-aiding potion can now be used at the second level. Moreover, the quantity is ten times that of before. Our Baizhenlou has been quite lucky lately, and we've secured quite a few collaborations. Many merchants in the capital want to cooperate with us."

Qin Zhenyuan stroked his beard and laughed, "These are all secondary. My grandson has the appearance of an immortal; these are nothing compared to him."

Chu Xiuying rolled her eyes. This old man was probably secretly pleased with himself.

And yet he pretends to be so calm, what a character.

"By the way, your grandson said he's going to send you back a batch of magical treasures. He'll have you properly arm the Crimson Dragon Army with them later."

The Crimson Dragon Army is the Qin family's private army, somewhat similar to the saying "My master's master is not my master."

The Red Dragon Army was not under the control of the imperial court; it was the private army of the Qin family.

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhenyuan was taken aback: "Really?"

"It's true, it couldn't be more true. Your grandson has arrived at Pengze Lake and is now the master of the Pengze Lake Dragon Palace. All the accumulation of Pengze Lake over tens of thousands of years is now in his hands. Countless people are eyeing it."

"Now that you mention it, I do remember. Lately, countless people in this capital have been trying to get close to me. So that's what they were waiting for."

“Let me tell you, you should agree to less of those promises. The Pengze Lake Dragon Palace is indeed wealthy, but it is ultimately closed off. Moreover, your grandson will have many more expenses once he leaves, and we can’t help him, nor can we hold him back.”

"How could I not know that? When have you ever seen me suffer a loss?"

"That's true. Your old friends all call you Old Fox."

"I'm not a fox, I'm..."

"what do you?"

"I am a dragon tamer."

"you……"

Outside the door, Fu Qiuwen stood ramrod straight, looking somewhat helpless.

There's no way to advance or retreat.

These two parents-in-law are not young, but they still have such a good relationship.

Wouldn't it be awkward inside if they heard she was here?
I felt embarrassed myself.

However, her husband's nephew has become quite successful.

"I hope his journey goes smoothly, and that he can also help my Hualong along the way, and..."

I'm trying to resume daily updates of 6,000 words, plus 2,000, which is an extra 300 words per day. I've already reached 400 words; I'll definitely make sure to add more in a couple of days.
