I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

Lin Qiao's way of repaying him.

Wonderful.

Of course, Lin Qiao was a novice, and Lu Xuan did his best to provide her with some guidance.

Lin Qiao, who had been tormented all night, was now fast asleep. Lu Xuan picked her up from the windowsill, placed her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then left.

During my in-depth conversation with Lin Qiao just now.

Another incense bud sprouted from the sacred incense tree.

"The seventh spirit sprout."

"The amount of spiritual energy returned each day is now seven times the original amount."

"No way! If I were younger, I could have easily produced seventy or even seven hundred spirit buds, let alone just seven!"

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

They have a strong, indomitable spirit.

Of course, this matter cannot be handled carelessly.

He was counting on the incense tree to give him a chance to turn his life around.

So far, Lu Xuan has received a lot of feedback from Shen Yue and the others.

Both have significant benefits.

If you just randomly picked a roadside stall to play around with.

If all the leaves that sprout from the incense tree are rotten, that would be a fatal blow to Lu Xuan. He absolutely cannot be complacent about this matter; he must still pick the ones with the best quality leaves.

As the saying goes, better to have nothing than something bad.

After all, Lu Xuan didn't know how many more times this incense tree could bloom.

If there's a limit to this and you use it all up before it's available, then you'll have to keep trying to get results.

Lu Xuan still hasn't fully grasped the mysteries of the incense tree.

However, just now...

The incense tree transmitted another message into Lu Xuan's mind.

That was a gift triggered by Lin Qiao.

[Spiritual Sprout Emerges: Obtaining the True Scripture of Refining]

The true secrets of metallurgy?

Lu Xuan was busy at the time, so he did not carefully peruse the manual on metallurgy in his hands.

After Lin Qiao fell asleep,

Lu Xuan also went to the secret training room next door.

Unlock the true secrets of metallurgy.

After absorbing and digesting the content, a look of enlightenment appeared in Lu Xuan's eyes.

This smelting manual is the method of weapon forging!

However, this smelting manual focuses more on refining and advancing weapons than on crafting them!

It involves strengthening and refining existing weapons.

The ability to upgrade a third-rank official to a fourth-rank official, and a fourth-rank official to a fifth-rank official!

Lu Xuan never expected that Lin Qiao would reveal such a divine technique.

Furthermore, the Refining Scripture does not require any other materials to refine this weapon. The only thing required is to condense a powerful true fire. If one can master the spiritual fire of heaven and earth, that would be even better!

And coincidentally, Lu Xuan possesses the Spirit Ash Holy Flame!

Lu Xuan has already achieved the most difficult condition.

From now on, you just need to master the methods.

After careful study, Lu Xuan understood.

This smelting manual does not require special materials to enhance spiritual artifacts; it relies on the power of heaven and earth.

Therefore, you need a deeper understanding of heaven and earth to obtain powerful strength and complete the transformation of the spiritual weapon.

With just this one skill, Lu Xuan could rise to the top in the Xuanwu Dynasty.

Such a level of smelting skill can only be described as a marvel of creation.

"Although no additional materials are needed, understanding the power of heaven and earth is not a simple matter."

"And it also requires mental strength."

"It seems simple, but it is actually extremely difficult, and achieving it is not something that can be done casually."

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

Let's put the manual of metallurgy aside for now.

Let's refine the elixir first.

Having gained experience from the previous fourth-grade pill.

In addition, his own cultivation level improved.

The refining of this Seven Treasures Heavenly Dragon Pill was much easier.

Jingbao Trading Conference, Day Six.

How the fighting is going outside is just something many people from other places are watching for the spectacle.

I won't actually get involved, nor do I intend to get a share of it.

Because there are some things he can't touch.

If you touched it or took it.

That could lead to endless troubles.

If you don't have the ability, don't even think about taking a risk.

Therefore, most people's attention is focused on the Jingbao Trading Conference, to see what they can buy today and what price they can sell their own goods for.

Fighting and killing are at most just topics of conversation during leisure time.

And inside the ancient Yun Pharmacy.

Because of Liang Wanquan's death, the position of deputy director of Guyun Pharmacy has been temporarily vacant.

Xu Jing naturally received a very high number of nominations.

When Gu Yun Pharmacy was in Wuling County, it was already doing a good job, and it quickly became the top pharmacy in Wuling County.

Given Xu Jing's own status, it would be quite easy for her to advance her career.

Most importantly, Wang Maocai, the person in charge of Guyun Pharmacy in Jinyuan City, has already decided to step down.

During this period, Wang Maocai basically stepped down to the second line.

Liang Wanquan was put in charge of handling many matters.

Liang Wanquan is now dead.

No one in Jinyuan City has the performance record to rival Xu Jing.

Wang Maocai also planned to hand over all the matters to Xu Jing.

But just then, another person was sent down from the main hall.

Gu Yun Pharmacy, located in the main branch of Jinyuan City.

Wang Maocai called Xu Jing into the reception room.

"Xiao Jing, I watched you grow up."

I am well aware of your abilities.

"I'm getting old and have been wanting to retire for a long time. I originally intended to hand over the affairs of Jinyuan City to you."

"But the main branch temporarily sent someone to replace Liang Wanquan."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jing's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

The position of deputy director of Jinyuan City is naturally coveted by many.

Xu Jing is very capable.

But frankly speaking, in Guyun Pharmacy, blood ties are valued even more.

The reason Xu Jing couldn't advance was precisely because of her bloodline.

Therefore, no one above was willing to assign tasks to Xu Jing.

This is also what makes Xu Jing extremely angry.

This is also something Xu Jing wants to fight for.

"Who was sent?"

Xu Jing asked in a low voice.

Xu Jing had already anticipated this outcome.

In Xu Jing's view, everything was just a matter of dealing with whatever came her way.

Wang Maocai glanced at Xu Jing.

Then he spoke slowly.

"It's Xu Dingyan."

Xu Dingyan!

When Xu Jing heard this name, her eyes visibly trembled.

She was extremely familiar with this name.

This person is Xu Jing's cousin by blood. He belongs to the direct line of the Xu family and is extremely spoiled and lecherous. Even when he was young, he tried to take advantage of Xu Jing several times, but Xu Jing stopped him by threatening to kill herself and her firm attitude.

Even the family members knew about these things.

He only gave Xu Dingyan a few mild reprimands, which were completely insignificant.

Although she has grown up now, Xu Jing knows that this guy will definitely not let her go.

He even came all the way to a place like this; he must have come for her.

"As mentioned above, Xu Dingyan will not directly replace me."

"But in this trade fair, whoever can bring back more orders, or who can come up with better products to enhance the reputation of our Guyun Pharmacy, will be given the position of the head of Jinyuan City."

"Although Xu Dingyan was sent by the family, in the end, results speak for themselves, so you don't need to worry about that."

Wang Maocai offered words of comfort, though he himself knew that such a thing was simply impossible.

score?

Xu Dingyan casually brought a few clients from the capital, and the results immediately improved.

Can you order large quantities of medicinal herbs just by randomly choosing a few martial arts schools?

Placing an order for one or two million taels of silver is an easy task.

For Xu Jing, this was a blow from a lower dimension.

"Since Xu Dingyan was able to come all the way from the capital."

"Then you must have brought quite a few orders with you, right?"

"May I ask you something, Master Wang?"

Xu Jing's eyes flickered slightly before she looked at Wang Maocai.

After the emotional turmoil, Xu Jing's breathing became much calmer.

Xu Jing was naturally unaware of the orders brought from the capital.

While it wasn't a major violation for Wang Maocai to reveal this information, the fact that he did so was tantamount to offending Xu Dingyan.

This is also what Xu Jing wants to see.

If Wang Maocai were on Xu Dingyan's side...

Xu Jing didn't mind eliminating Wang Maocai as well.

When dealing with others, observe their actions rather than their words.

If someone says they believe in you, but their actions actually favor their opponent, then there's nothing more to say.

Fortunately, Wang Maocai did not disappoint Xu Jing.

Wang Maocai glanced around the house to make sure no one was around before whispering to Xu Jing.

"I just received the news too."

"Xu Dingyan brought two big buyers, who are preparing to place an order for three million taels of silver with us."

Three million taels!

Even Xu Jing was shocked by Xu Dingyan's methods.

After all, three million taels of silver is no small sum.

Xu Dingyan has clearly paved the way for his future.

Once in the city, they immediately produced the order contract.

The deal was done, and all the fame went to Xu Dingyan.

The achievements he made are all extremely important entries in Xu Dingyan's resume.

Wang Maocai revealed this information to Xu Jing.

In this way, Xu Jing will have a better way to deal with the situation, and she won't be completely clueless.

"Well, there's not much I can do to help you."

"If this branch in Jinyuan City is really handed over to that kid, it will most likely be ruined."

Wang Maocai sighed and said.

After all, he had painstakingly managed Jinyuan City for so long.

They couldn't bear to see the hard-earned foundation ruined in the hands of others.

Unfortunately, this branch of the gang did not belong to him, but to the Xu family.

It's up to them to decide.

Outside, the Xuanwu Dynasty was the supreme ruler.

However, in Guyun Pharmacy, the Xu family is the ultimate authority.

"Don't worry, Master Wang."

After Xu Jing finished speaking, she got up and left.

With Xu Dingyan suddenly appearing, she naturally needed to make more preparations.

Even if Xu Dingyan has the Xu family backing him up.

What can we do?

Behind her is Lu Xuan!
