The Rise of the Shen Family

Just as Shen Huanchi and Wang Yuanqing were chatting hotly, the voice of the attendant of the Wang family sounded outside the door:

"The patriarch is here!"

After hearing this, Wang Yuanqing and Shen Huanchi in the room quickly got up to greet him.

I saw an old man calmly stepped into the house. At this time, Wang Qiyan had changed into a Taoist robe, but he still couldn't hide the lingering twilight aura.

"Patriarch!" Wang Yuanqing whispered as he walked to Wang Qiyan's side.

"Senior Wang!" Shen Huanchi and Shen Jinghua stepped forward and bowed their hands.

"You two fellow Daoists, please take your seats!" Wang Qiyan smiled at Shen Huanchi.

After he finished speaking, he walked towards the top teacher's chair, and Shen Huanchi and the others all returned to their seats.

At the moment when he just made a close attack, Shen Huanchi observed that although Wang Qiyan didn't seem to be in serious trouble on the surface, his breath was very disordered.

Judging by Shen Huanchi's eyesight, when he just collected the golden bell, Wang Qiyan was afraid that he was seriously injured.

After sitting down, Shen Huanchi found that the foundation-building cultivator sitting on Wang Yuanqing's side was actually the middle-aged man who had just taken over as the head of the Wang family. It seemed that he was ready to take the position.

Just as Shen Huanchi looked at the middle-aged man, the man seemed to have noticed something, and nodded to Shen Huanchi.

...

"Fellow Daoist Shen, please use tea!" Wang Qiyan said to Shen Huanchi, holding up the teacup.

"Senior please!"

"Speaking of which, the two of you and I have had little contact since Senior Brother Shen sat down!" Wang Qiyan couldn't help sighing.

Back then, when Shen Yucang worshipped under the Wang family's Jindan sect at the middle stage of foundation building, Wang Qiyan was just a young boy who had just practiced Qi and entered the body.

Because the ancestors of the Wang family placed great hopes on Shen Yucang, they also specially cultivated the relationship between the disciples and the clan.

It is hoped that Shen Yucang can maintain the power of the Wang family together with the remaining members of the Wang family after he takes his seat.

...

"Since Yu Cang's ancestor took the slaughter, the family began to go downhill. Those things in Linhai County are not good, so it is inevitable that the two families will cut off communication." Shen Huanchi replied calmly, but Wang Qiyan's face was a little embarrassed.

But this is the way it is in the world of immortality. Many relationships are maintained only by a certain person's face, and once that person is gone, the relationship will be broken.

After Shen Yucang took his seat, the master-disciple relationship between the Shen family and the Wang family disappeared. What followed was a relationship of interests. In the face of Lingshi, the Wang family and the Shen family still maintained a trade relationship. exchanges.

In the end, the Shen family was reduced to the point where it was almost destroyed, and they were unable to conduct business with the Wang family.

After Shen Huanchi established the foundation, he gradually resumed some contacts with the Wang family.

"I invited Daoist Shen to come to the banquet this time to restore the relationship between the two families! Our two families can move around more in the future, and the family disciples can also communicate with each other." Wang Qiyan began to play carelessly.

If it is said that Wang Qiyan decided to befriend the Shen family after seeing Shen Jinghua's potential in Qingyunmen, after seeing Shen Huanchi's late foundation-building cultivation, he became more determined to befriend the Shen family.

Now Shen Huanchi is only 100 years old, and he still has more than 100 years of life. From this perspective, even if he can't break through the golden core, he can achieve the peak of foundation building. At that time, the Shen family can be regarded as a wealthy family. The friendship between the Wang family and the Shen family can only be beneficial and harmless.

"Senior Wang can think so, of course the Shen family can't ask for it!" Shen Huanchi stood up and cupped his hands.

...

Next, at the urging of Wang Qiyan, the Wang family and the Shen family reached several trade deals.

Because Pingzhou County is deep inland,

In addition, the mountain gate of Qingyunmen is standing here. After thousands of years of hunting and killing, the monsters in the wild have disappeared, and the rest have also been hidden. As a result, many monsters have to be purchased from outside to meet the demand.

On the contrary, because Linhai County is close to the boundless sea, many sea beast corpses flow into Linhai County through Shanghai Shangfang every day, and the four major families in Linhai County all have sea beast corpses in the business.

Monster corpses are a rare cultivation resource for monks. Some monster claws and bones can be used to refine tools, and some special parts can be used to refine medicine pills. Even animal blood can be used to make talismans. 's rune...

Between this point, the Wang family and the Shen family reached the first trade, which was the business of monster corpses.

Most of the monsters in the Shen family's hands were sold to all parties in Pingzhou County through the Wang family's channels. Compared with the prices of Linhai County and Hushangfang, Pingzhou County was already rich, and the monster corpses in Pingzhou County were more expensive. The price can be two or three percent higher than the original.

Of course, the Wang family will earn some price difference fees for the sale. But this is also much better than before the Shen family.

In the past, except for some channels, most of the demon corpses of the Shen family were sold by those business gangs. After these business gangs bought the demon corpses in Linhai County, they were transported to inland areas such as Pingzhou County for sale.

And these business gangs often bought the Shen family's demon corpse at the price of Shanghai Shangfang, which made the Shen family unable to earn a few spirit stones.

If they were sold according to the negotiation between Wang and Shen, the Shen family could earn several hundred more spirit stones every year.

...

The business of the monster corpse is mainly based on the Shen family, supplemented by the Wang family, and the other business will be reversed.

Pingzhou has been prosperous since ancient times, and under the control of Qingyunmen, there are few tragedies that destroy the clan, so those large and small families have developed a considerable scale.

The spiritual fields and medicine gardens they cultivated are not comparable to those of the immortal clan in Linhai County, and they often have as many as hundreds of acres.

Therefore, after meeting the needs of each family, there will be more spirit valleys and spirit medicines. These spirit valleys and low-level spirit herbs will accumulate more and more, and the price will begin to decline. What the Wang family has to do It is to buy these things and sell them to these loose cultivators in Shanghai through the Shen family's caravan.

There are many low-level scattered cultivators in Shanghai Shangfang. Compared with the corpses of monsters that can be seen everywhere, what they lack is these spiritual valleys and elixir that take a long time to harvest.

Loose cultivators often live in one place for a while and then change the cave again. These people are all experts at running away. If they can't stay in one place, they change to another place.

Therefore, if you want to grow some spiritual valleys and spiritual medicines yourself, you often have to change places before these things are mature.

The spiritual valleys and elixir they need are purchased from shops, or sometimes they can pick one or two spirit grasses when they venture outside, but it is too difficult to grow their own.

...

These businesses of the Wang and Chen families are all based on the market situation. They sell cheap things from one party to the other, and earn a huge price difference from it, so as to achieve mutual benefit.

Of course, the Wang and Shen families are not the first to do this kind of business. The four major families in Linhai County have their own channels for dumping goods, but there are very few who can benefit from both sides, and it is not easy to find partners.

Cooperating with such a small-scale family can't open up the situation, it's all a little bit of trouble, can't sell much goods, and secondly, a lot of manpower and material resources are wasted to maintain it, which often outweighs the gain.

Let's go to those big families to cooperate. In addition to the lack of access, each of them is not at ease with the other. Some families also look down on the families of Linhai County, so it is more difficult to do.

...

Being able to open up the trade route with the Wang family is of great significance to the Shen family. In this way, the Shen family's annual trade income can increase by seven or eight hundred spirit stones, which is also a huge wealth over time.

Facing the enthusiastic Wang Qiyan like this, Shen Huanchi almost forgot the real purpose of coming to celebrate his birthday this time, but looking at the appearance of the Wang family, he should not refuse the cooperation proposed below.
