Cangbao Street, Zhongfu.
At the family meeting again, Zhong Yan re-distributed the main responsibilities of everyone in the house.
Although Yao Huilan's realm has fallen, she has recovered to the level of foundation building, her combat power is relatively stronger, and she is a spiritual explorer, so it is more suitable to go out to open up wasteland.
He Jinyan replaced her, and together with Wen Hong gathered young children with spiritual roots or martial arts qualifications.
This is the family's big plan for development. Before they have control over a large number of cities and populations, they can only absorb seedlings from near and far by 'robbing' them.
Qin Ziyue was born in a noble family, well-educated and knowledgeable. Together with Qiuxiang, he was responsible for the education and protection of his children.
At present, the children of the Zhong Mansion are gradually growing up and have often left the mansion to gain more experience. It is safer to have a foundation-building master by their side.
Zhong Yan also gave Qin Ziyue the 'Red Armored General' puppet who had the second-level combat power of Foundation Establishment.
Gu Baiyu is the leader, and Yu Qingyao is the assistant. They command a group of guest officials in the mansion and are responsible for external monk affairs including market business.
Including the ten newly recruited men and ten women, the Zhong Mansion has a total of twenty-four guests.
Among them are three foundation builders, one is a disciple from the Fire Cloud Sect, and the other two are casual cultivators.
External mortal business is in charge of Xia He and Yang Liuer. The former is in charge of Qingyang City, while the latter, accompanied by Wan Qiwen, who is in the fourth level of Xiantian realm, goes to the surrounding towns for development.
Jiang Ping and Dong Cao are in charge of all the chores in the backyard.
As for the secular martial arts combat power, it was divided between the adopted daughter Zhong Muxi, the nursing home manager Ding Zhan, and the martial arts gym leader Mu Qiu.
…
Yuan Ziyi and Ye Weiwei are responsible for making money. The latter has good alchemy qualifications and can already refine first- and second-grade elixirs.
As for the experience Ji Jianghuan.
Zhong Yan stayed with him and just practiced.
Her qualifications are good enough, and she has a supernatural spiritual root, which can take into account both realm and combat power. Unlike other monks, she is not required to practice 'extreme criticality'.
End of the meeting.
Jiang Ping caught up and called out: "Husband!"
Zhong Yan looked at her face, walked aside, and condensed the isolation shield, "Ping'er, do you have something to say?"
Jiang Ping glanced at the sisters not far away, leaned forward and said, "Husband, not long after you went to Jingcheng, sister-in-law Ziying found out that she was pregnant, and I made my own decision and had her aborted..."
Her husband has been busy since he came back, and she didn't find a suitable opportunity to say it.
Zhong Yan listened to the details and remained silent for a while before saying, "You are right. You and Dong Cao can make up your mind about matters in the inner courtyard."
Jiang Ping breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, thank you for your trust."
After a pause, she continued: "By the way, husband, after you came back, many families in the city handed over invitations and mentioned that they wanted to marry women. Sister Qingyao also found some female cultivators who were willing to accept the soul search. At the moment, all the sisters are busy with other things, and it is not convenient to have children. We have discussed it, and the reproduction of children cannot be interrupted, what do you think?"
Zhong Yan pondered a little and said: "You and Qing Yao discuss it. Mortals don't want it. Monks want three spiritual roots or above. Choose a few and cultivate them first, and we won't hold a wedding banquet."
"OK."
…
A few days later.
Zhong Yan took Yan Sandao to Yangquanfang City.
Today is different from the past. It only takes less than an hour for someone in the Foundation Establishment Realm to control a flying magic weapon and arrive at it at normal flying speed.
The establishment of Qingyangfang City diverted a lot of passenger flow from surrounding towns, and Yangquanfang City was no longer as lively as before.
But there are still a lot of people. After all, Yangquanfang City is equivalent to the headquarters, and the cities in Wangdi, Qingyang, and Heishui all need to get materials and goods from here.
The two went straight to Huoyun Pavilion, greeted Zhang Dongzhuo and Han Jiuping, and found Fangshi No. 1 guard Zhou Tong, a kind-hearted old man.
Lin Zhengping had introduced him, and Zhong Yan had some friendship with him.
"Zhong Yan has met Shopkeeper Zhou!"
After the polite exchanges, Zhong Yan asked about Lin Zhengping.
Zhou Tong shook his head, twirling his white beard and said: "I haven't returned to the sect, and I don't know where I'm going. Senior brother Lin is more solemn in seclusion this time. He probably found a way to repair his injuries."
Obviously, it is impossible for Lin Zhengping to talk about 'Xingyun Wulian' to others.
Zhong Yan nodded, filled the pot with tea and expressed his intention: "Senior Zhou, I want to have five shops in Qingyangfang City."
Zhou Tong raised his eyebrows and asked for five shops. Lin Zhengping's verbal advice alone was not enough. At least Qifeng had to come forward and say it himself.
Zhong Yan continued: "In addition to me, there are seven foundation builders in the direct lineage of the family, the highest being Yuan Zhiqing, the fourth-level peak of Qifeng Foundation..."
Zhou Tong was shocked. In just a short time, the former Qi-training monk had accumulated such strength. With more than 20 guests, he was considered a powerful clan in the Qingyang area.
Plus, he hit the nail on the head--except for me.
He couldn't help but look at Zhong Yan, but he still couldn't see through it, and there were rumors that the foundation building had failed.
"Junior promises that the Zhong Mansion will pay an additional 10% of the revenue management fee for the first three years."
Zhou Tong's eyes flashed, and he muttered a little: "Since you are so confident, I have no objection, but every shop in the city has its own owner, and you need to fight for it yourself."
"This is natural, thank you Senior Zhou!"
Zhong Yan left a valuable gift, said goodbye, and headed to Wanshou Hall.
Yan Sandao asked in confusion: "Husband, can't the Huoyun Sect directly decide the ownership of the store?"
Zhong Yandao: "The division of interests was initially determined. There are rules and regulations in the agreement. How can we change it at will? We can fight for it, but we must first obtain support, otherwise all parties will join forces to target it."
With the Huoyun Sect's approval and the support of the Yang, Ding, and Peng families, the remaining forces had nothing to say.
It is worth mentioning that although the Yang family is weak, it is one of the main founders of Fang City. The number of shops it owns in Qingyang City is second only to the Huoyun Sect.
The Peng family, Ding family, etc. are outsiders, while the Yang family is a family that cultivates immortality native to Qingyang.
But having said that, the Yang family is backed by the Baiye Zhou family and has a strong background.
"Brother Zhong is here to welcome you, but you are welcome from afar!"
The eight-character Hu Dingyin stood up and held his hands to greet him.
"Brother Dao, you're fine!"
Zhong Yan was a little surprised to see him. Several years later, he was still refining Qi to perfection. He didn't know whether he didn't try to build the foundation or failed to build the foundation.
With the strength of the Ding family, it is not difficult to get a relatively good quality foundation building pill for a child who is at the peak of Qi refining.
After chatting about Qingyangfang City and getting support, Zhong Yan took the liberty to ask.
It turns out that they have to wait for the contracted spirit beasts to break through together, so that their combat power can be doubled.
Zhong Yan was very surprised, but he had never known the beast control master in detail, so he couldn't help but smile: "Is there any female cultivator in Brother Dao's clan who wants to get married? Your family and I have a good relationship with Qin and Jin, and our relationship will be improved to a higher level! "
Now that the Zhong Mansion has become stronger, Zhong Yan no longer worries about the family origin of his marriage partner.
Ding Yin blinked, but he had heard something. The other party was always cautious in marrying his wife, and they usually bought them from the Marriage Pavilion.
"Brother, are you kidding me? If you are really interested, let me ask you what the conditions are?"
Zhong Yan said: "At least three spiritual root qualifications, advanced Qi refining level or above."
The requirements are quite high... Ding Yin was speechless, his eyes flickered in thought for a moment, and he said seriously: "Okay, I will report it to the clan elders, and I will try my best to facilitate this matter."
After leaving Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, Zhong Yan went to Feixian Pavilion, but did not see the Narcissus girl.
It is said that he offended the Xu family children for some reason and was transferred to another city.
