By night, the carriage team had traveled three hundred miles and rested in a town to buy various supplies.
The two of them had followed those young masters before and obtained merchant documents through them, which now came into use.
The two of them had a lot of money, and they killed four young masters and their guards, and got a lot of property.
So I spent a lot of money to buy a few carts of good tea as cargo, disguised myself as a business traveler and continued moving forward.
Ten days later, they drove more than a thousand miles to the coast.
The population here is relatively small, but big houses are still hard to find.
The two of them did not enter each city, but just inquired at the Yaxing Branch in various large towns.
After struggling for several days, all the injuries on Yamazaki's body were healed, and then he rented a house in a big town on a monthly basis.
It's not that Yamazaki and Shandai don't have money, it's just that they don't want to sell the property, and they don't want to pay too high, so they just settle for now.
…
In the blink of an eye, a month later, Yamazaki's injuries were completely healed, his skin had all grown back, and his eyebrows had also grown.
Although the hair is not long yet, it is not unattractive if it is covered with a headscarf.
Yamazaki went to the city to look for business opportunities and asked for news.
The problem here is that no one wants to sell the property. The land and shops have been passed down from generation to generation and have been quite stable for many years.
Unless you buy a piece of land and start from scratch, it will be difficult to buy a suitable property.
Yamazaki wandered around for several days, visiting towns with a radius of hundreds of miles, but could not find a suitable industry.
On the contrary, I heard news about the capital of Lingyun Kingdom, which came one after another from the merchants.
Yamazaki sorted it out according to time and roughly figured it out.
The four young masters killed by their brothers and sisters became the cause of chaos.
The background is that Bai Jingdan is going to the spiritual world, and the Lingyun Dan sect will ask people to follow him.
The disappearance of the four young masters gave people the misunderstanding that they were killed because they had quotas.
As a result, the four young master families took action against the children of the aristocratic families who had quotas.
As a result, the situation became increasingly chaotic and involved more and more people.
In the end, it was revealed that the eight major families and their allies were fighting openly and secretly for the quota to go to Lingyun Dan Sect this time, and they did not hesitate to fight.
The Lingyun Dan Sect doesn't care and can't control it.
They could expand their enrollment and give the eight major families places to enter the Lingyun Dan Sect.
But they can't affect the spiritual world. They can't give or decide the quota for the divine elixir sect in the spiritual world.
The leader of Lingyun Kingdom could not stop them. He could only watch them fight with a headache, trying hard to prevent civilians from getting involved.
…
Yamazaki introduced the current situation to Shandai, touched his longer hair, and expressed that he wanted to leave Lingyun Country to find the gate to the fairy world beyond the three major sects.
Because the chaos in Lingyun Kingdom will not end with the end of the selection, but will become more intense with the end of the selection.
If any family member goes to the spirit world, his family will receive unconditional support from the Lingyun Dan Sect.
At that time, the families that were previously hostile to them will definitely suffer disaster.
Those families will fight to the death, and the fight will no longer be a local battle like it is now.
Due to long-standing marriages and alliances, the influence of each family spread throughout Lingyun Kingdom.
Therefore, the entire Lingyun Kingdom will be in chaos.
But in the short term, they will still be recognized.
They would be safest only if they left Lingyun Country.
When they meet people who know them in the future, they don’t need to explain their previous itinerary.
…
Shandai had no objection, so Yamazaki went to organize the matter.
I used good tea to open the way, made friends with some businessmen, joined a powerful Guangjin Chamber of Commerce, and agreed to go overland with a caravan.
In order to cover up the number of carriages and prevent those good horses from being conspicuous, the fleet of carriages was also expanded.
Through the help of the Chamber of Commerce, Yamazaki prepared a caravan with twenty carriages and one mule carriage.
Five carts of wine, five carts of silk cloth, and five carts of tea sets were loaded.
…
The caravan traveled north for seven days and entered the sphere of influence of the Linghai Sect.
The specialties of the Linghai sect are coal and construction stones, which are mainly transported by sea ships.
The management of land-based transactions is not strict, but the gatekeepers also have talent.
Fortunately, neither Yamazaki nor Shandai had to show up, so they were not seen through and managed to get in.
…
Yamazaki asked the caravan and found out that if the three major sects were Class A, then the Linghai Sect was Class C.
Among the Linghai Sect, there are only about twenty people who are known to the world as having great innate achievements.
It is not clear whether there is any hidden innate greatness or whether there are casual cultivators in the sect.
In short, even if there is, it won't be much.
In other words, a sect that apparently has no qi practitioners and only a small number of people with great innate abilities is a third-rate sect.
…
After the caravan crossed the border, they separated and each found a place to sell the goods they carried.
Due to the strength of Lingyun Kingdom, merchants from Lingyun Kingdom will generally not be attacked by the Linghai Sect.
Having said that, Yamazaki was not from Lingyun Kingdom, so he still asked for a small team of escorts.
The leader is called Jian Jun, a strong man in his mid-thirties, not innate, but with seventy or eighty years of skill.
There are five thieves, ranging from their twenties to their thirties, with forty or fifty years of skill.
It is also very interesting to say that there is innate energy and spiritual energy here, the body is more nourished, the strength is greater, and the physical strength is better.
These six people, placed in the low-level martial arts world, can dominate one area, and their family wealth can be said to be hundreds of thousands of taels.
But here, they work tirelessly for a few dozen taels of silver.
…
Yamazaki took the map given by the caravan and chose a route to avoid the city guarded by the innately accomplished people.
Sell goods as you go and buy jade from pawn shops and jewelry stores.
Whether in Lingyun Kingdom or Linghai Sect, high-quality jade is a controlled item, with the excuse of being a tribute.
However, Lingyun State's control is very strict, and ordinary stores dare not sell it.
The Linghai Sect's control here is loose and they dare to sell jade in their shops, especially to merchants from the Lingyun Kingdom.
Before coming, the caravan said that if they receive high-quality jade and supply it to the royal family, they can get rewards or even titles.
Naturally, Yamazaki would not hand it over. He wanted to see if there was any spiritual energy inside.
But after looking around, they were all fakes. No, it should be said that they were all taking inferior goods and passing them off as good goods to fool people who didn’t understand.
But after Yamazaki tried it with his inner energy, he found out.
Just considering the caravan, I collected some as a show so that I can show them to the caravan in the future.
He is young, and it is normal to get eye piercings, but it is abnormal not to buy any of them.
…
The convoy's items were sold out and they returned with a box of jade.
Return to the border and ask the merchant to hand over the jade.
After carefully identifying them one by one, the Chamber of Commerce said that none of them were good.
"If you want to sell, we can buy it."
"No, I'll go back and find someone to carve it. Maybe I can carve out one or two exquisite pieces."
"fair enough."
“Also, I hope the Chamber of Commerce will help me buy some fields.”
"The fields."
"When I walked down this trip, I felt like there was nothing interesting here. No matter how good the food is, if it can't be sold at a high price here, it might as well be selling pickles."
"Ha, that's a good idea, let's help you take a look, but it's a bit difficult to do it in the fields, but it's okay in the shops and workshops."
"Thank you, let's go to the shop and workshop."
