Ascension Through Generations

Seeing this situation, Zhao Jinge stopped the two of them and said: "Okay, let's not talk about those useless nonsense. Solve this matter first, and we will discuss the rest later."

After a moment of silence, Zhao Keqin said with a solemn expression: "I just did the math. Now we have twenty-one spiritual fish in our hands, nineteen that are less than a hundred years old, one first-level green carp that is more than a hundred years old, and two that are more than two hundred years old. First-order red carp. The spiritual fish meat totals twelve thousand kilograms.

This is not a small amount. Relying on retail alone is not enough. You must develop new big customers, or try to sell to more distant markets.

Of course, it is best to persuade old customers such as Yudan Pavilion and Bailianfang to change their minds. "

After finishing speaking, Zhao Keqin thought for a while and added: "This is only our output for half a year."

After he finished speaking, someone said: "If there had been a new big buyer, we would have found it a hundred years ago. Looking for it now? One word, difficult!"

As soon as the conversation started, all the cultivators in the Zhao family started talking about it.

Someone shouted: "We can't do anything more than sell in bulk. Let's wait for a while to see if things can turn around. Anyway, the family just has some balance. It can still last for a year and a half."

"No, that's too negative. In my opinion, it's best to send someone to Bailianfang and other old customers to get information. If that doesn't work, just lower the price."

"Lao Jiu, aren't you being negative when you say this? I think this thing is weird at heart, so we'd better stay put. Wait until the two clan elders have established the foundation, and then we can make plans."

"This is not good. Our Zhao family is also a cultivating family that has produced several foundation-building monks. The more difficult the period is, the more we must be cautious. Otherwise, if people see through the weak nature of the family, it will be too late to regret it. That’s it.”

Hearing this, Zhao Kezhang quickly agreed: "That's right! We can't take the initiative to show weakness."

At this time, Zhao Jinpeng suddenly cursed angrily: "That's right! Without Foundation Establishment, the tougher we are, the more tough we become. Do you think those Foundation Establishment monks are all fools?"

Zhao Jinpeng is a radical member of the Zhao family's first house, and he has never been behind others when it comes to confronting the second house.

After he finished speaking, someone else expressed their suggestions and opinions.

Zhao Sheng listened silently, nodding and shaking his head in his mind.

Through this incident, he discovered that the Zhao family also had several capable members, and not all of them were idlers.

When everyone else spoke, Zhao Sheng was the only one left silent.

This seems very strange.

Zhao Jinge looked at Zhao Sheng and thought of what happened a few days ago.

So he tried to ask: "Chonghe, can you tell me?"

Zhao Sheng smiled and did not refuse, and said loudly: "The people sitting here are all my elders. Please correct me later if there are any mistakes in what I said."

Having said this, he said: "First of all, we have to clarify a question. Who is our enemy in this matter? Who is our friend?"

Without giving everyone time to think, Zhao Sheng asked again: "Are Jade Pill Pavilion and Bailianfang our enemies?"

As he spoke, he said, "No! They are not enemies, because even if the Zhao family is defeated in the end, they will not get much benefit."

"Then who is our enemy? Whoever gets the most benefit in the end is our enemy."

At this time, Zhao Sheng saw that everyone was a little impatient, so he spoke faster and said: "The spirit fish has been returned. It is not only our Zhao family that has suffered losses, but also our old customers.

So someone must be giving a greater benefit. For example, he promised that after the fall of the Zhao family, the price of spiritual fish would be greatly reduced and other similar empty talk. "

At this moment, Zhao Jinpeng suddenly interrupted him and questioned: "It's a lot of nonsense, it's all nonsense. Our most urgent thing now is how to solve this matter."

Zhao Sheng smiled slightly and said: "This matter is actually easy to solve. Since they don't want it, we simply won't sell it for the time being and will endure it for a few months."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

Zhao Jinpeng immediately sneered: "No! You're talking lightly. If you don't sell the spiritual fish, how will we practice in the future?"

Zhao Sheng responded: "Someone has just said that without Foundation Establishment, no matter how the family responds to the outside world, it will seem unconfident. So the best choice is not to have any overreaction and let everything take its course.

We try to delay as much time as possible and wait until the two clan elders come out of seclusion before making a decision. "

"Haha, Luo Liba said a lot, but he can sum it up in one sentence: Stay the same to cope with the ever-changing situation!" Zhao Jinpeng sarcastically said.

"Sixth Master, you are right." Zhao Sheng smiled and nodded.

Zhao Sheng actually had a way to solve the matter, but he chose to sit back and watch.

Because he deeply understands a truth: "Sometimes, appropriate external threats can promote internal unity within the family."

In his view, the Spirit Fish Incident came at just the right time. Although the mastermind behind the scenes could not be said to be stupid, it was not very clever either.

If it were him, he would take the initiative to increase the purchase price of spiritual fish, and then unite a group of forces to place a huge order for the Zhao family.

When delivery is approaching, the order is suddenly canceled.

At that time, the Zhao family, which had consumed a large amount of spiritual stone pills in order to catch enough spiritual fish, regretted it too late and had no choice but to let others slaughter them.

After Zhao Sheng spoke, the meeting ended quickly and no one came up with an effective solution.

In the end, I had to decide to take a multi-pronged approach.

The golden generation went to lobby various forces to see if they could be persuaded to change their minds.

Several seniors took a batch of spiritual fish to several nearby markets for sale. Although casual cultivators are reluctant to buy, generally Lingshi Building purchases are limited, but whatever they can sell is worth it.

The rest of the younger generation, those with a Chong character, stayed at home and could not go anywhere.

Soon, most of the Zhao family's middle and late Qi cultivators went out, leaving only a bunch of novice cultivators at home.

In order to prevent accidents, under Zhao Sheng's strong suggestion, the family did not hesitate to waste spiritual stones and activated the ten-layer water dragon formation to protect the mountain.

In the next half month, Zhao Sheng worked hard while practicing hard while drawing the invisibility talisman with all his strength.

The invisibility talisman is indeed one of the nineteen most difficult first-level talismans to draw.

Even with the blessing of talent, Zhao Sheng still failed repeatedly.

After half a month of hard work, he looked pale and lifeless, his eyes were as dark as a panda, and his spirit and body seemed to have been hollowed out.

However, most of the invisibility charms still fail, and only 23 out of 10 succeed.

However, the sad news doesn't stop there.

Not surprisingly, Zhao's persuasion also ended in failure, and after half a month of selling in bulk, he only sold about two thousand kilograms of spiritual fish.

Again, although spirit fish meat is good, it is not as necessary as elixirs.

As each Zhao family cultivator failed and returned, the atmosphere in Longli Lake became more and more depressing, and even their mortal relatives were affected. Many ordinary people felt very panicked, as if the sky was about to collapse.
