Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 63 Business Partnership (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

Zhao Chunsheng gave instructions to his wife and two sons.

Shen Xuan has a mortal wife, and there are many things he cannot do in public.

Concealing one's strength and identity makes it easier to act in secret.

Shen Xuan led Ding Yuyao into the house in front of the Immortal City gate, where they registered their information, paid spirit stones, and obtained identity tokens.

"Shen Xuan, Qi Refining Level 7, Mid-Grade Talisman Master."

He did not disguise his identity.

No need.

He has no enemies.

Those who had grudges against him, such as the robber cultivator Hei Feng, the rogue cultivator Guo Boling, and the demon hunter Chen Tuzi, have all disappeared.

As for the Crimson Rainbow Sect...

This is within the territory of the Azure Water Sect.

The relationship between the two countries has always been tense.

He wasn't worried at all.

Moreover, he had no grudges or hatred towards the Crimson Rainbow Sect.

His hands were not stained with the blood of the Crimson Rainbow Sect disciples.

Strictly speaking, it was the Crimson Rainbow Sect that wronged him.

In the future, he will also keep in touch with his former classmates.

Naturally, you should use your real name.

To some extent, Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying of the Qingyun Sect were his connections.

We will likely need to use it in the future.

Upon entering the Immortal City, the first thing to do is to find a place to stay.

Shen Xuan had planned ahead and decided to rent a second-class mansion in the inner city.

With the replenishment of the spirit-gathering array, the spiritual energy in the training room is comparable to that of a first-class mansion.

It was enough for his cultivation.

This is also the standard residence for cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining.

That day, Shen Xuan led Ding Yuyao to an inn where they would stay for the night.

The next day, the two went directly to the brokerage firm.

I'm in line.

Suddenly, a familiar voice wafted through the crowd.

Shen Xuan was searching everywhere.

I heard shouts of joy from afar.

"Shen Xuan?"

Looking around, a round, fat man rolled over.

"Wang Fugui!"

With a figure like that, it's hard not to recognize her.

"Shen Xuan, it really is you!"

Wang Fugui looked delighted.

What are you doing here?

"I'm planning to rent a second-class mansion. By the way, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Ding Yuyao."

"This is my old classmate and good friend, Wang Fugui."

He never expected to run into his former classmate in Yunyuan Immortal City.

Seven years ago, Master passed away, and we gathered together, promising to meet again every ten years.

In fact, apart from Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying, the others rarely interacted with each other.

They only wrote two or three letters, recounting their respective experiences.

Shen Xuan could understand.

Apart from Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying, everyone else, including himself, was only at the early to mid-stages of Qi Refining. They were busy struggling to make a living and had no time to reminisce.

The Wang Fugui standing before me, whom I hadn't seen for seven years, was still at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

"Hello, sister-in-law."

After greeting everyone, Wang Fugui said, "Don't bother queuing, I know someone here, just follow me!"

……

Cloud Abyss Immortal City, Taibai Tower.

In the VIP box.

"A Class B residence should ideally have a large water source, such as a lake or a spirit pool."

Wang Fugui smiled and said to a yellow-robed steward of the Biyue Sect.

“Our Cloud Abyss Immortal City has the most water-based cultivators, and they all want a residence with abundant water resources.”

Wang Fugui handed over a jade box with a smile.

"So, we still need Brother Qian's help!"

The yellow-robed steward opened it and took a look. Inside were fifty spirit stones, neatly stacked.

"Since Fellow Daoist Wang is so sincere, I'll take care of this. I'll take you to see the house tomorrow!"

"Thank you so much, Brother Qian! Come on, let's have a drink!"

After the banquet, Steward Qian took his leave.

Shen Xuan and Wang Fugui reminisced about the past.

It turns out that Wang Fugui had always lived in Longmenfang Market.

Every spring is the peak season for hunting sea monsters on the islands.

Wang Fugui would personally make a trip to Yunyuan Immortal City to purchase sea monster spirit fish and various cultivation materials, which he would then sell at Wolong Market. "Is the road safe?"

"Safe! We'll pay a fee and act together with the business alliance."

The merchant alliances are powerful, with several Core Formation cultivators in most of them, even surpassing some small and medium-sized sects.

Shen Xuan seemed to be deep in thought.

I have an immature idea in my mind.

With the help of the spiritual stone, things went very smoothly.

Soon, Shen Xuan moved into his new home.

Shen Xuan's Class B mansion is a secluded courtyard with excellent privacy.

There is a lake in the courtyard, covering an area of ​​about three acres, where some ornamental lotus flowers are planted.

Shen Xuan swam inside for a while, then emerged disappointed.

The lakebed is covered with rocks, and there is no underground river.

The water flows from a specially made pipe, which is only half a foot in diameter.

It seems that the Azure Water Sect has much stricter control over Cloud Abyss Immortal City than the Ding family.

This second-class mansion has an annual rent of 360 spirit stones!
Without a skill, it's difficult to make a living here.

The lower-level cultivators were even more involved.

Shen Xuan paid three years' rent in one lump sum.

Wang Fugui and some of his men helped Shen Xuan clean and tidy up his residence.

After a busy day, I cleaned the mansion spotless.

Shen Xuan also accompanied Ding Yuyao to purchase some bedding, kitchenware, and other miscellaneous items.

That evening, the two settled into their new residence.

In the bedroom.

Shen Xuan grinned mischievously.

"My wife, is it time for me to do as I please?"

"what do you want?"

Ding Yuyao's pretty face flushed.

"Naturally..."

The voice became lower and lower.

Ding Yuyao's delicate body was held in Shen Xuan's arms, and she was confused and infatuated.

The flickering candlelight cast a beautiful, curvaceous silhouette as she tied up her long hair...

a few days later.

Zhao Chunsheng paid a visit.

He also rented a second-class mansion, which was in a remote location with no water source, but was much cheaper.

The annual rent is only 240 spirit stones.

Despite this, he still complained about the prices in Yunyuan Immortal City.

"It's not easy to live in the Immortal City! Master Shen, I have something I want to discuss with you."

After arriving in Yunyuan Immortal City, Zhao Chunsheng planned to bid farewell to his demon-hunting career.

He was a fire mage and not skilled in combat, so he had no advantage in hunting demons in the East Sea.

Moreover, he has a wife and children to take care of.

If he hadn't met Shen Xuan, he, being timid and fearful by nature, would probably still be living in a cramped, low-class mansion in the market.

He hasn't been idle these past few days either.

I took a stroll around Cloud Abyss Immortal City.

I'm planning to take over a shop and open a cultivation-themed general store.

They would buy common elixirs, talismans, magical artifacts, and materials for various cultivation arts, as well as sea monsters, spirit fish, monster materials, and second-hand magical artifacts, and then sell them in their shops.

Do you have a source of goods?

"We'll find a source of goods as we go, by doing it and seeing what happens."

Zhao Chunsheng is quick-witted and quite confident in opening a shop and doing business.

However, the cost of shops in Yunyuan Immortal City is quite high.

Just to be on the safe side, he wanted to partner with Shen Xuan.

"From now on, Master Shen can get a discount when purchasing talisman-making materials and selling talismans."

"Okay. I'll take you to see someone."

Shen Xuan led Zhao Chunsheng to find Wang Fugui.

"This is a good thing!"

Wang Fugui said with a smile, "I go to Yunyuan Immortal City every year to purchase a batch of seafood. If Fellow Daoist Zhao is here, it will save me a lot of trouble."

He traveled with the business alliance.

The timing will be determined by the business alliance.

It's easy to miss the best time to make a purchase.

The three of them discussed it.

With 10,000 spirit stones as the initial capital, Zhao Chunsheng, Shen Xuan, and Wang Fugui invested in the shares at a ratio of 5:3:2.

“Fellow Daoist Zhao, since you are Shen Xuan’s friend, you are also my friend, Wang Fugui.”

"It doesn't matter how much the shop makes, and a small loss is acceptable, but it can't lose too much. After all, I also have to answer to the clan."

Shen Xuan said with a smile, "Wang Fugui, don't worry. I'll cover your losses. No matter how much you lose, it's all on me."

"That's good! However, there's one more thing I'd like to ask for your help with."
