A few months later.
Donglong Island.
"Qingxuanzong...what does this mean?"
Su Ye played with the communication jade talisman in his hand and read it several times carefully, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
A few months ago, he entrusted the Luo family messenger to go to Qingxuan Sect to apply for assistance.
First, it will make up for the financial gap caused by lower profits after the diversion of Baitie Daofang City.
After all, the prosperity of Donglongdaofang City only lasted for two or three years.
The huge profits it brings will take time to accumulate before they can be transformed into the foundation of the Luo family.
Moreover, Su Ye took the lead and invested most of the profits into city infrastructure and shipbuilding plans.
Secondly, it was also to test Qingxuanzong's attitude towards the Qi family.
If Qingxuanzong's thoughts are consistent with Su Ye's thoughts.
Then, he should reply quickly and give the Luo family considerable support.
However, it took several months for Qingxuanzong's reply to arrive?
Its content is also puzzling.
"The Luo family has worked hard and guarded the sea well, so I will give you two thousand spiritual stones..."
"It's not bad, but... there's no follow-up?" Su Ye was speechless.
Su Ye didn't believe it. Qing Xuanzong didn't know that Qi Chengjian showed great power and perfect foundation building skills.
A hegemonic power that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years and has ruled this sea area for hundreds of years.
If intelligence work sucks like this, you can just die.
However……
When he knew that the Qi family was about to rise, his attitude towards the Luo family, which could play an important role in containing it, was so ambiguous?
"First of all, Qingxuanzong is obviously aware of the hidden dangers of the Qi family. Otherwise, it would be impossible to send two thousand spirit stones!"
You know, this is a gift without any strings attached.
It was much more generous than the interest-free loan Su Ye had expected!
However, after the spirit stone was delivered, there was no movement and no instructions?
Su Ye was puzzled by such an anticlimax and a schizophrenic style.
This feeling……
'Six months ago, a true disciple of Master Hongri and another Crystal True Disciple were said to have a fight at Cangyu Peak due to jealousy. '
'The fighting was fierce, the top of Cangyu Peak was flattened, one person was on the verge of death, and the other was severely injured...'
'The atmosphere in the sect is very depressing. I am in charge of the foundation construction overhaul here. I am in a low mood. I have reprimanded several managers several times for no reason...'
This sentence suddenly appeared in Su Ye's mind.
This is the message sent back by the Luo family in the Qingxuan Sect in the jade talisman.
"Could it be that Qingxuan Sect is also in internal strife?!" Su Ye boldly guessed.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain Qingxuanzong’s schizophrenic attitude!
But...why did the good Qingxuan Sect suddenly fall into civil strife?
Su Ye's teeth were a little sore and he scratched his head.
"The Luo family's status in Qingxuan Sect is still too low after all..."
The Luo family is the best among the members of the Qingxuan Sect, and he is still in the late stage of Qi refining.
With this kind of cultivation, in a small island and a Qi Refining family, one can become the island owner and the head of the family.
But in Qingxuan Sect, which has many foundations, after working hard for half a life, he is just an outer sect official!
In fact, the Luo family was behind this position of management, supporting a large amount of spiritual stones to manage the top position...
Regarding the information and trends of the real high-level officials within the sect, it is like looking at flowers in a fog, obscure and unclear!
"In comparison, the ancestors of the Qi family...were once members of the Qingxuan Sect!"
"With this relationship, the Qi family's information channels within the Qingxuan Sect are obviously much better than the Luo family..." Su Ye's eyes darkened.
not to mention……
The Queen of the Qi family, Qi Chengjian.
This person has endured seclusion for decades for the sake of his path.
During this period, he never left Liuli Island, which shows the depth of his mind!
Wouldn't a city like this not understand that showing perfect foundation-building skills would likely lead to suppression by the Qingxuan Sect?
And he still did it without caring!
"This is by no means stupid or arrogant..."
It is very possible that Qi Chengjian has determined that Qingxuan Sect is currently in civil strife and cannot take action at all!
"It's troublesome..." Su Ye frowned.
Qingxuanzong fell into civil strife, which is definitely bad news for the Luo family!
Qi Chengjian, who has perfected the foundation, is supporting him from behind.
The safety factor of Qijia's Baitie Daofang City has been guaranteed, and Qijia is stronger and can provide more types of products!
The most important thing is that Baitie Island is closer to Dongning waters!
"Even though it had a reputation for killing loose cultivators before, the memory of the group is always short-lived."
"Besides, Baitie Daofang City is newly opened, and it is said that the discounts are extremely strong. When the time comes, the casual cultivators will probably perform a collective performance of 'Fifty packs of amnesia on the spot'..."
Su Ye had no trust in the integrity of casual cultivators.
For such things as casual cultivators, if you have breasts, you will be a mother. To expect them to be unyielding is pure fantasy!
"And..." Su Ye looked gloomy.
Compared with the fictional business wars in the novel, various clever methods, conspiracies and tricks...
Business wars in the real world are much simpler and cruder!
Su Ye thought with his knees, and he could think of a way for the Qi family to definitely defeat Donglongdaofang City...
"Send troops to attack, flatten Donglong Island, and eliminate competitors in a physical sense!"
"Subsequently, Qi Chengjian relied on monopolizing the market to earn a large amount of spiritual stones, purchase crystallized spiritual objects, and achieve breakthroughs and promotions..."
Su Ye murmured to himself.
"The Qingxuan Sect is in civil strife, and the Qi family is coming fiercely..."
He slowly walked out of the mansion, stood in the courtyard and gardens, and looked at the sky.
In the distant sea and sky, thick black clouds, carrying countless water vapor, are rolling towards Donglong Island...
"A storm is coming..." Su Ye's eyes were deep.
…
In the blink of an eye, another few months passed.
Baitie Daofang City is dominated by the Qi family.
Under the preferential policies, it is full of vitality and prosperity!
It is said that the Qi family specially used large-scale spirit gathering arrays to raise the concentration of spiritual energy in Batieshimafang City to the second level!
Moreover, for casual practitioners who come to Fangshi, the benefits are generous, and no accommodation fees will be charged for half a month!
This is tantamount to: letting casual cultivators use the second-level spiritual veins for free to gain popularity!
"Good means..." Su Ye sighed.
The Qi family also knew that they had a bad start and it would be difficult for them to rely on conventional means to compete with Donglongdaofang City.
Therefore, there was a wave of blood, trying to restore the reputation by relying on real money.
And this, can only be said.
--very effective!
In the face of the real discount, the casual cultivators immediately performed amnesia on the spot.
"Is it true that the Qi family slaughtered loose cultivators? How do I remember that in the beginning, in most sea areas, you could freely hunt monsters?"
"When you talk about the Qi family expelling loose cultivators and killing people to silence them, can you please give us the specific coordinates of the sea area? Time?"
…
"This month's passenger flow has dropped by 30%, and the revenue of Fulu Pu and Danqi Pavilion has both declined..."
Su Ye looked at the financial briefing with a gloomy expression, and the influence of Baitie Daofang City gradually became apparent.
At this time, a servant pushed the door anxiously and entered.
"It's bad, Guard Su, in the direction of the shipyard, there are flames shooting into the sky, there are monks attacking!"
"What?!"
Su Ye stood up suddenly, his eyes fierce, like a ferocious beast that chooses people to devour!
"What a courage!"
