Ancestor Above-Novel2

179 A warning

At the end of September, at the foot of Yuyan mountain, three people left the clan and headed east.

They would pass by anling city, board the flying boat, and continue East until they reached Donghai city. Then, they turned North from the East Sea, crossed a Sea area in a straight line, and arrived at Liao County.

Lu xueting, Lu ranting, and Lu mingling were walking together. They were going to propose marriage to Wenen.

Lu Wenen and Gongsun que’s marriage should also be brought up on the agenda.

Ran ting was Wenen’s grandmother, so it was only right for her to lead the way. Xueting and ranting were blood-related sisters. If a Foundation establishment cultivator was present, it would show how important the clan was to them.

As for Lu mingling, he had to go with them to propose marriage. On the other hand, he also had an important job to discuss with the Gongsun family about expanding their trade.

The Lu trading company had been developing at a rapid pace in the past two years. Not only were they in charge of the sales of the clan’s own products, but the other Allied clans in the anling Prefecture had also been pulled into the trading company. A considerable portion of their products and specialties would also be handed over to them for sale.

This was also the result of Lu mingling’s negotiation. It was just that this matter had not been completely confirmed yet. The other families ‘trust in the Lu trading company was still relatively limited. Lu mingling hoped that he could open up a trade route between the north and south through this exchange with the Gongsun clan. This way, it would be easier to sell goods, and it would be of great help to the Lu clan’s trading company’s prestige.

An ordinary small clan would not have the ability to sell their products to the Xue state in the North. They usually had to rely on the Husheng trading company to sell their goods.

And now, it would definitely be better if he could pass through the Lu trading company. In the past, the Husheng trading company had the intention of monopolizing the business. The profit they took from the middle, the purchase price, and so on were all stuck. On the other hand, the Lu trading company would offer a much more favorable price in this regard.

Ming Ling’s negotiation with the Gongsun family went smoothly. When the Lu family transported goods over, the Gongsun family could directly buy a batch. In addition, they would allow the Lu trading company to do business in Liao County-of course, they also had to cooperate with the Gongsun family so that they could earn money together.

The Lu family had achieved a few goals in this trip to the northern border.

The wedding would be held on Yuyan mountain in two years. Some people from the Gongsun family would come as well. The two sides also reached an agreement to expand their business cooperation, and their alliance became more reliable.

To a certain extent, the exchange between the two families had become very equal.

The gong Sun family was, of course, much stronger than the Lu family. After the battle with the White ghouls in the South, they had finally recovered. Although there were still no golden core cultivators in the Gongsun clan, the number of initial enlightenment cultivators had increased to as many as eight, and the number of Foundation establishment cultivators had increased to thirty. There were more than a thousand cultivators and many affiliated families. If they were to mobilize all their forces, they could mobilize more than five thousand cultivators.

But the Lu family had Jindan, and they might have two in two years.

This could make up for everything.

......

Two years later, Lu Wenen and Gongsun que’s wedding was officially held.

After their wedding, the Lu trading company and the Gongsun family made a trip to the trade route in Liao County.

The distance between the two places was too far. The Gongsun family provided the airboats for the commercial firm. They were not only for the commercial firm’s use, but also gave up a part of their storage space for the Lu commercial firm during the two trips each year.

Otherwise, with the Lu family’s current economic strength, it would be difficult for them to get a large airboat that specialized in transportation between the North and the South. Those things were very expensive.

The preliminary preparations for trade were completed in the past two years. After Wenen’s wedding, Ming Ling even tried to make a trip.

There was no problem.

After he returned to his clan, he suddenly received a message-Lu xinting, who was working for a caravan in Changhong County, had been attacked.

The enemy was very strong, and the team she led was almost instantly defeated. She herself was a seventh-stage Qi refining cultivator, and the other five rogue cultivators in the team were all at the mid-stage Qi refining or above. The fact that they were wiped out in an instant meant that the attacker was at the foundation establishment level or above.

However, the attacker did not kill them. In fact, after defeating them, he did not even take away their wealth. He only left behind a letter for Lu xinting to pass to the person in charge of the Lu family.

After he returned, xinting passed this letter to his nephew, Ming Ling. Although he was of a higher seniority, according to the family’s rules and regulations, Ming Ling was the person in charge of the family’s Chamber of Commerce, and he was Xin ting’s superior.

After receiving the letter, Lu mingling realized that it was a warning letter.

At that moment, the clan had also held a meeting regarding this matter. Even Lu chaoxi, the clan leader, was alarmed.

“I’m guessing it’s the Husheng trading company,” Lu mingling replied to the question.

Even though the warning letter was not signed, Ming Ling could still guess it.

He further explained,”actually, this isn’t the first time.” The last time I went to Dong Hai County to prepare the trade route, I encountered some resistance. A manager of the Husheng trading company even told me about this, persuading us that we shouldn’t do cross-continent business, as it’s easy to lose money.”

Husheng trading company. The Lu clan had once done business with them, so their relationship was not bad.

However, this time, the Lu trading company’s plan to open up a north-south trade route had really stepped on a cat’s tail.

There were two major trading companies in the Feiyun state. The Feiyun trading company mainly did local business and also did trade to the South. The Husheng trading company, which was ranked second, mainly did business with the Feiyun state and the Xue state.

If the Lu clan wanted to set up a trade route to Liao County, they were obviously trying to steal their business.

hehe, Yingluo. Lu chaoxi laughed. Then, he said to Ming Ling, ” the family’s patriarch still places great importance on the development of trade routes. You have to continue to do it well. I will deal with Husheng Merchant House.”

Lu mingling wanted to ask how to solve the problem, but after hesitating for a while, he did not ask. historical

The clan leader should have a way.

He went back to continue preparing for the trade between the north and south, and also decided to compensate xinting for the beating.

Lu chaoxi, on the other hand, left for the Qingfeng sect a few days later.

He had originally planned to go there soon. this was normal. Every once in a while, he would go to the Qingfeng sect and stay there for a period of time, directly staying in Li Yanling’s cave. The cultivation efficiency of a level five spiritual heritage was quite good. Furthermore, as a guest elder of the sect, he had even accepted a mission last year. He had led three foundation building cultivators from the Qingfeng sect to settle a small clan in Guangyang County that was haunted. It could be considered that he had done work for the sect.

The reason why he was so embarrassed about the newly-wedded couple was because he had parted with Li Yanling not long after they had gotten married. Li Yanling wanted to return to the sect and cultivate properly so that she could reach the Golden core stage as soon as possible.

Since Li Yanling couldn’t run around, he would have to work harder.

This time, he had originally planned to stay for half a year.

If everything went as planned, Li Yanling would probably try to break through to the Golden core stage this year. As a husband, he should be by her side at this time.

At the same time, he also went to resolve the matter of the warning that happened to his family’s business.
