Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Previously, the Xu family held a monthly meeting, but after moving to Duanshan City, Xu Qingzhou adjusted it to once every three months, and now it's time for the family meeting again.

Xu Qingzhou leaned back comfortably in his chair, holding a cup of fragrant spiritual tea in his hand, listening to the elders' reports.

The Fifth Elder said, "Currently, the Hidden Dragon Guard has a total of 180 people. Apart from the 45 who have just entered in recent years and are still outside the Profound Core Realm, the rest are already in the Purple Mansion Realm. Among them, only Xu Yan is in the Primordial Spirit Realm."

"The Purple Mansion Realm cultivators of the Hidden Dragon Guard have been successively sent to the Eight Ancient Kingdoms."

In the past, when the Hidden Dragon Guards were not strong enough, their families provided them with resources and found them safe training environments.

From the Demon Cloud Mountains to the battlefields of Daqian and Dachu, Shangguan Zhuo had been secretly protecting them.

Now that they have all grown up, they need more cultivation resources and must face this dangerous world on their own.

The Eight Ancient Kingdoms is a good training ground. Xu Luo recommended the Martial Kingdom to Xu Chen when his cultivation level was not high enough.

Furthermore, the Xu family plans to open branches of Zuixianlou in the Eight Ancient Kingdoms, and expand their intelligence business as well. Sending them to the Eight Ancient Kingdoms will allow them to make preparations in advance.

Xu Qingzhou put down his teacup and gave a brief evaluation.

Next, the Sixth Elder, who was in charge of the Zuixianlou branch's business, gave a report.

"We currently have 80 branches in Wuguo, and in another three years, the remaining 130 branches will be able to open one after another."

"It has to be said that opening a store in a place like Wu Kingdom is indeed very profitable. The monthly income of these eighty branches alone is more than the annual income of all the branches in the Great Qian Dynasty."

"Of course, this is also because we have launched many new spirit wines in recent years, which has expanded our customer base."

Previously, the spirit wine brewed by Zuixianlou was only suitable for cultivators below the Xuandan realm. For cultivators above the Xuandan realm, it was just a taste and did not help their cultivation at all.

Over the years, Xu Chu has brewed many spirit wines from the Wine Saint's legacy, some of which are suitable for cultivators at the Purple Mansion or even the Nascent Soul realm.

In addition, the existence of the Azure Dragon Secret Realm allows Drunken Immortal Pavilion to frequently and continuously provide a large quantity of aged spirit wine.

Therefore, in terms of selling alcohol, Zuixianlou has a significant leading advantage.

It can be said that as long as no one causes trouble or secretly sabotages it, Zuixianlou can be packed every day and make a fortune no matter which city it is located in.

The Sixth Elder asked, "We've already chosen a shop in Duanshan City, and the manager and chef have been trained. When would be a good time to open?"

The Xu family has been living here for over six years, but the Zuixianlou branch in Duanshan City has yet to open.

“Wait about three more years,” Xu Qingzhou said.

The Sixth Elder did not ask for the specific reason, knowing that Xu Qingzhou had his own plans and arrangements.

Three years from now, the once-in-a-decade grand auction at the Jubao Tower in Duanshan City will begin.

At that time, Xu Qingzhou will send the Azure Nether Saint Gold that Xu Ying discovered in the blessed land to be auctioned off.

However, given the Xu family's background and strength, it would be more prudent for them to entrust a powerful and influential figure to handle the matter directly.

Xu Qingzhou decided to ask Xu Ying's master, Yin Xianhong, for help.

Yin Xianhong will be coming to Duanshan City at that time, and we can take advantage of her visit to arrange the opening of the Zuixianlou branch.

They could even invite Yin Xianhong to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. Upon hearing this news, some students in the city who had previously joined the Divine Palace would also go to see Yin Xianhong.

In this way, there's no need to worry about the Drunken Immortal Pavilion becoming too successful and attracting unwanted attention from other forces in the city.

This can be seen as leveraging the power of Yin Xianhong and Shenque Mansion to ensure the stable development of the Xu family and the stable operation of Zuixianlou.

This is how you use "backing" and "connections"—Xu Qingzhou was already very familiar with it.

Xu Chu's grandfather, the Seventh Elder, was in charge of managing the Xu family's alchemy business.

Originally, the Xu family had no advantage in this regard. There were not many alchemists in the family, and the pills they refined were only enough for the clansmen to consume themselves.

Xu Luo provided several improved pill formulas, which enabled the Xu family to earn a considerable amount of money by refining pills and to cultivate a number of alchemists.

Even now, income from elixirs still accounts for a very high proportion of the Xu family's total income, second only to Zuixianlou.

It was thanks to the income from elixirs and the Drunken Immortal Pavilion that the Xu family, who had moved from a remote and impoverished area to Duanshan City, was able to continue operating normally.

After all seven elders had finished their work reports, Xu Qingzhou briefly outlined the family's next stage goals, and the meeting concluded.

Xu Qingzhou's only task for the month was thus completed.

As Xu Qingzhou passed by the lake in the center of the blessed land, he subconsciously used his divine sense to investigate.

The Heavenly Tortoise, which had been resting at the bottom of the lake, was sleeping at the moment.

In fact, it sleeps almost every day, occasionally waking up to go ashore for a stroll and eat a few spirit fish from the lake.

Its cultivation level is gradually improving, and its size is also gradually increasing, although it is not very obvious.

"This old tortoise lives a more leisurely and carefree life than I do."

Back in his courtyard, Xu Qingzhou heard a clear laugh coming from not far away.

Then a chubby-faced little boy rode over on a gray motorcycle. He was Xu Qingzhou's second son, Xu Yundao.

When I bought Little Gray, I wanted it to become the Xu family's clan's guardian spirit beast.

Unexpectedly, its job turned into taking care of children.

After Xu Ying finished leading Xu Yun, she led him on to Xu Yundao.

But Little Grey is quite fond of this, and feels uncomfortable if he doesn't have it with him for a day.

The reason is also very simple.

Normally, its status in the Xu family is average, but when Xu Ying or Xu Yundao ride it, its status becomes second only to the emperor.

In this blessed land, everyone who saw them greeted them with smiles and treated them with great courtesy.

If it were the Great Qian Dynasty, the entire dynasty, from top to bottom, would treat them with utmost respect.

Most importantly, they usually eat and drink well, with delicious meals every day.

How could Little Grey not be addicted to such a life?

Just give birth!

I'm not afraid of how many children there are, I, Little Grey, will take care of them all!

Xu Yundao rode Little Gray to Xu Qingzhou.

"Father, when will my sister come back?"

Xu Qingzhou, Su Xinyan, and Yu Shufei take care of the children, teaching them to read and write, and explaining some cultivation knowledge, which can be a bit tedious.

Over the years, Xu Ying would come back every year for half a month. Every time, she would take Xu Yundao to eat delicious food and have fun activities. Naturally, Xu Yundao liked her the most.

"Didn't my sister come back a few months ago?" Xu Qingzhou said speechlessly.

Xu Yundao pouted, "But I miss my sister."

“When you grow up, you can spend more time with your sister,” Xu Qingzhou said.

Xu Yundao's eyes lit up instantly, and he clenched his fist.

"Then I want to grow up quickly!!"

Xu Qingzhou waved his hand, and he went off to play with Xiao Hui while he went to the pavilion in the backyard.

On the table were prepared spirit wine, spirit tea, spirit fruit, and pastries. Xu Qingzhou sat down and had a sweet drink with Yu Shufei.

My wife is my true love, my child is an accident.
