B round of investment in hand?

- You come to Xiling and participate in the Hundred Races Conference as a Xiling monk, okay?

Qin Ruqing was stunned when she heard this. She looked carefully at the face of the director of the Immortal Product Bureau and found that he was not joking. As long as she agreed now, the director could finalize the matter on the spot, and she would never be able to return to Nanling.

Oh, he really has a personality. If her family was not in Nanling and she had the responsibility of revitalizing the family, she would have agreed to him and truly clung to the thigh of the Immortal Product Bureau from then on, which would be very good.

With these thoughts in mind, Qin Ruqing remained calm and replied after a respectful salute: "Thank you for your kindness, Director. However, Ruqing was born in Nanling and is a member of the Qin family. I am afraid it is not easy for me to leave the family and work for Xiling. In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, wouldn't I become a villain who forgets his principles and betrays the family for the sake of profit?"

The Fifth Feather hummed, which was true. However, it was rare to meet such an interesting person who was so compatible with his temper. It would be a pity to let him go, so he said: "You don't need to leave the family. You just need to participate in the competition as a Xiling monk during the Hundred Clans Conference. Isn't that okay?"

Of course not.

Qin Ruqing said earnestly: "Director, I am a member of the Qin family, so I should serve the Qin family and Nanling. I represent Xiling in the competition. There is no legitimate reason, and no..."

"Forget it!" Diwu Lingyu interrupted her. He was not a person who liked to force others. Since they were unwilling, then forget it.

Qin Ruqing's mouth curled up, and he gently comforted the director who seemed a little willful, "Xiling is vast and rich in resources. Are you worried that you can't find talented cultivators to participate in the competition? With a courageous person like the director leading the team, we will definitely be able to take the lead in the future Hundred Races Conference and become famous in the four regions!"

Diwu Lingyu was rejected for the first time when he recruited someone. He was in a bad mood. He rolled his eyes at Qin Ruqing and waved his hand to tell her to leave. Qin Ruqing didn't want to linger. He had said everything he needed to say anyway, and he felt that he had gained a lot from this trip, so he turned around immediately.

As a result, this strange director had no idea what was going on in his mind, and he called Qin Ruqing back again, pulled something from his waist and threw it to Qin Ruqing.

"The Fifth Ziyan is stingy, giving you an ordinary official tool, which is not interesting. You take this, and I will invest in you. As long as you change your mind before the Hundred Clans Conference, you can come back to me."

Qin Ruqing raised his hand in front of his eyes, and the thing in his hand fell down. It was a mutton-fat jade pendant, with a warm and delicate luster like milk, and engraved with the family emblem of the Fifth Family.

Oh, not bad, this is considered to have obtained a B round of investment? In the future, I will have one more chip to cheat and deceive.

Qin Ruqing happily put it away, thanked the director, and then turned and left.

-The

main house of the Yang family.

Yang Wenxu placed something in front of the elder, and said in a deep voice without waiting for the elder to speak: "This is a cultivation accelerator."

The elder's pupils shrank, but fortunately his face was dark, and there was no big change in his mood. He took the red cube in his hand and studied it, and found the mechanism very smoothly, dividing the cube into four parts.

The great elder nodded as he looked at it, "The material is very special, not like the common materials, and it has been forged with special techniques. It is a combined spiritual weapon and should be able to be used separately. The person who designed and manufactured this spiritual weapon is of high level."

After groping for a while, the great elder obviously noticed the hemispherical groove inside the block. Only the design of this place was not clear to him, "What is the use of this groove?"

Yang Wenxu pursed his lips, "To put the pill in."

Facing the great elder's puzzled look, he tried to be calm and said, "Putting the vitality pill in the groove can maximize the effect of the vitality pill. Disassemble the block and put a vitality pill in each part. Put them in the four corners of the body while meditating to form a barrier. The cultivation inside the barrier is equivalent to a small secret realm."

After Yang Wenxu briefly explained the function of the accelerator, he fell silent. The elder opened his mouth, obviously a little shocked, and found his voice after a while: "That Miss Qin is always generous, is this what she wants to cooperate with the Yang family for the second time?"

Seeing Yang Wenxu nodded, the elder sighed, "At that time, you gave up Beiling and went to Nanling because of the long journey. It was really a wise move." If it weren't for the detour to Nanling, you wouldn't have met Miss Qin, and there wouldn't be such an opportunity with the Yang family later.

After sighing for a while, the elder became puzzled, "I heard that the Qin family is a family of elixirs, how can they come up with such a level of spiritual weapon?"

Not to mention the difficulty of combining spiritual weapons, just the difficulty of combining elixirs with spiritual weapons is not something that ordinary weapon refiners can do. In addition, the Great Elder is not exaggerating, but the level of weapon refinement in the outer domain is indeed far behind that of Xiling, not to mention that the Qin family is also a family of elixirs. Where did they find such a high-level weapon refiner?

Yang Wenxu said, "It is the one who has been following the young lady, wearing a black robe, and is described as quite mysterious. The young lady introduced that person as her friend. I guess, maybe it is the offering that the Qin family hired at a high price, and..." The voice was lowered, "It feels like he was invited from Xiling."

In other words, the black-robed man is from Xiling?

The elder showed a look of doubt, and held the magic weapon in his hand for a while, frowning and said: "I look at this weapon refining technique, it seems that I have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it..."

Yang Wenxu didn't care much about this matter: "I'm afraid it was poached from a family in our Xiling. The Qin family is developing well now. I think it will be upgraded in the future. It's not surprising to poach masters."

The elder hummed, as if he was still thinking about where this "deja vu" came from. As a result, Yang Wenxu looked at him for a while, hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help saying: "Elder, I suspect that the Qin family is related to the Xianpin family."

Hmm? The elder raised his eyes in surprise.

Yang Wenxu told what happened after he came out of the teahouse today, and then he said: "The director of the Xianpin Bureau is such a big shot, how could he want to meet a young man? And the young lady told us before that when introducing the Qin family to the outside world, it is okay to lean towards the Xianpin family. And then not long after, the Xianpin Bureau’s steward came to greet us in person. Isn’t this the ironclad evidence that proves what the young lady said is true!"

Yang Wenxu was slightly excited when he spoke. In fact, he couldn't wait to share this news with others, otherwise he felt like he would suffocate to death.

Xianpin family! Could it be that the detour to Nanling before was really God's will, and this is the opportunity for their Yang family to rise? !

Yang Wenxu was daydreaming in his heart, and his expression showed that he was already very excited. The first elder was twirling his beard in deep thought. He had more knowledge and did not think that the Yang family was so lucky that if they randomly bumped into a family on the road, that family would be related to the Xianpin family. I wouldn’t even dare to make it up like this in my storybook.

He further speculated in a reasonable direction, "Perhaps it was because of the previous matter about the Vitality Pill that Miss Qin and the others attracted the attention of the Immortal Products Department."

"You have to know that our new director is an enterprising person. Look at the series of reforms he has made not long after taking office. As the saying goes, a new official starts with three big things. What does he want to do with the Qin family's vitality pills?"

"If he really wants to change the current situation in Xiling, it is not enough to just break through the barrier. The fire poison of the Xiling monks is a big problem. If he is a good director who cares about the people, he must think about changing this situation. However, there are no alchemists in Xiling, so he must seek help from outside. However, the communication and search is not a simple matter..." When

the elder said this, Yang Wenxu gradually understood. He could guess what happened next without the elder saying it. "So when the Xianpin Bureau heard that our family auctioned the sky-high price of the Vitality Pill some time ago, they must have paid attention to this matter. With the power of the Xianpin Bureau, it is too easy to find out the information of Miss Qin and her group. So they contacted the Qin family and had the idea of ​​cooperation..."

Well, this speculation is indeed reasonable. But it is not pleasant at all! He still prefers to think that the Qin family is related to the Xianpin family. After all, Yang Wenxu has been away for many years, traveling all over the country, and has heard a lot of strange stories. He is a man who dares to think and act.

He has seen a lot of strange things, and his taste has gradually become distorted. When he suddenly saw something so strange, he always felt unimpressed.

After a while, the gentleman insisted: "Even so, it is quite glorious for the Qin family to cooperate with the Xianpin Bureau. Speaking of which, our family has never cooperated with the Xianpin Bureau, and we don’t know what the new director looks like..." He muttered in a low voice.

The elder put away the accelerator, reached out and gave Yang Wenxu a slap on the face, and said in a light voice: "If you were more motivated, the clan would not have never cooperated with the Xianpin Bureau. In addition, is the director someone you can criticize?"

The elder had met the new director once, when he first came to Xiling to take office, and the heads and elders of various families went to visit him.

To be honest, the elder's first impression of the director was that he was too young. This young does not mean that he is young, but that at this age, he must be extremely talented to have such a cultivation.

There are also rumors about this director among the families that this person is a direct descendant of the Xianpin family, who was plated with gold from above, and will be transferred after making some achievements.

The elder did not know whether it was true or not, but looking at the appearance of the director, he believed it about 70%.

No matter what, such a person is not someone they can discuss.

--So

, two days later, a new item was suddenly put on the shelves of the Yang family's rare goods shop. The name was very arrogant, called the cultivation accelerator.

Ha, this thing looks like it was made to attract the public's attention. Cultivation accelerator, didn't your Yang family just launch a pill that can speed up the circulation of spiritual energy some time ago? That one at least had a layer of separation, so the effect was not fake. However, it hasn't been long since the last auction, and now there is another cultivation accelerator, and the effect is directly maximized.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, why are the functions of the two items launched by your Yang family so repetitive! Who in the family came up with the idea? The marketing plan received a bad review!

I walked into the Yang family's exotic goods store with the thought of "Let's see what new tricks you can come up with". In the early years when the Yang family was still strong, this store did have some good things that were hard to find outside, after all, the Yang family managed the caravan. Basically, anything that is hard to find in Xiling and is very much needed, this family can get it for you.

But after the decline in recent years, the things in the store are getting worse and worse. In the past, they could still make some high-level elixirs and rare spiritual materials to sell, but now, all they have on the shelves are some ordinary basic elixirs. Although I will buy what I need, it's not amazing after all.

When I walked to the front desk, there was a small wooden sign with the words "Grand Recommendation" inserted. On the counter next to the sign was a tray covered with golden velvet, on which a small red cube was quietly placed.

That's it?

A group of people gathered in front of the counter, and the third son of the Yang family, Yang, held up the red cube in his hand and introduced it to everyone.

"Break the accelerator apart, it can be divided into four parts, and put a vitality pill in each of them, and you can form the effect of a small secret realm, which directly increases the speed of cultivation. If you don't believe it, come up and try it!"

The people around were noisy, and someone really went to try it.

He sat on the mat provided by the Yang family, and Yang Wenxu personally stuffed the vitality pill into the spiritual weapon and then placed it around him.

Someone nearby teased him, "Last time, the Yang family sold a single vitality pill for 10,000 spirit stones. If you count the auction price, it's even more. Brother, whether you use it or not, you've made 40,000 spirit stones this time. It's really worth it!"

The man was very happy to hear this and felt that he had made a profit this time.

Yang Wenxu looked at the obvious disbelief of the group of people, but he didn't bother. After pressing a position on the accelerator, he stood aside with his chest in his hands.

The person who went up to experiment was still smiling at first, but after a while, he showed a shocked look. Yang Wenxu reminded him at the right time, "Don't just stand there, you can feel the difference and start now? 40,000 spirit stones, at most you will be given a quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, the next person will be replaced."

Hey, the person behind still has a chance! Does that mean everyone can take advantage of the Yang family? The Yang family has spent a lot of money to promote this accelerator. They

started to make a fuss.

"Can it be done?"

"If not, let us do it. Hey, this expression, is it really effective? Is it a stooge hired by the Yang family?"

"I'm not a stooge. My family lives in Jiaoli Street. The No. 66 Arena is owned by my family. You recognize me, right? Let me do it next time!"

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and this man was still immersed in the state of cultivation. Others thought that he was really pretending.

Yang Wenxu didn't want to let him stay for even a minute, and reached out to turn off the accelerator. Just kidding, the vitality pills are very expensive, and they are all money. Can you waste electricity like this?

Seeing that he was still not awake, Yang Wenxu reached out and shook him again, finally waking him up. The man slowly opened his eyes, as if he didn't know what day it was.

Others asked: "How is it? You are pretending to be very convincing. How much money did the Yang family give you?"

The man jumped up and said, "What do you mean by a shill? I am not a shill!" Then his eyes lit up, "This accelerator is really useful. I have never experienced such a smooth flow of spiritual energy. It is very smooth. The effect of this quarter of an hour of practice is equivalent to my previous three days of practice!" It

is really smooth. The words of this shill are really shameless.

The person who opened the ring at home went up and pulled him down, "Okay, okay, you are very smooth, let me come up and try how smooth I am."

He motioned Yang Wenxu to press the switch and said to those people, "Ring No. 66, you all recognize me, I am definitely not a trickster!"

Yang Wenxu listened to the doubts of those people, but he was not panicked at all, that is, there was no turmoil in his heart. He raised his hand and pressed the switch, and said proudly, "It's started, pay attention to enter the state, a quarter of an hour, not a second more."

The barrier formed by the spiritual weapon slowly closed and finally merged together like water waves.

Perhaps because of the example of the people in front of him, the "young master of the ring" really entered the state very quickly. Even with his eyes closed, his expression could not be seen. However, at a certain moment, his eyebrows moved uncontrollably, and finally he was completely immersed in the state.

He was indeed well-known in the wrestling street area, so the people below did not shout that he was a stooge. After a quarter of an hour, Yang Wenxu raised his hand and turned off the spiritual weapon. This time, there was no need for anyone to wake him up, and the man opened his eyes on his own.

After feeling that the barrier was gone, he was still unhappy, "Hey, Fellow Daoist Yang, why did you close it?"

Yang Wenxu: "A quarter of an hour has passed."

"Give me another quarter of an hour, and I'll pay you with spirit stones, okay? My family runs a competition arena, so we're not short of money, open it for me again!"

Yang Wenxu didn't care, and directly shouted: "Next!"

The people below looked at each other and saw the expressions. Could it be that the Yang family was really not bluffing? Could that cultivation accelerator really speed up the cultivation speed? Is it better than the effect of the vitality pill?

This time, there was no need to urge them, and they came forward one after another, "Next, I'll do it!"

"Don't crowd, don't crowd, I'll do it, I've been waiting here for a long time..."

Yang Wenxu pointed at one casually, and didn't care. Anyway, the people who came into the store today would have the opportunity to try it, and they would know how effective it was. The same was true for other stores of the Yang family.

Those who had tried it did not hesitate at all. They walked to the counter and said, "I want this combo package!"

A bottle of vitality pill and a cultivation accelerator were sold together for a price of 10,000 spirit stones.

10,000 spirit stones is a lot of money for any cultivator, but this person bought it without blinking. He had already experienced the effect of this cultivation accelerator and calculated the price. It was not cheap to buy the vitality pill and the accelerator separately, which cost 9,999 spirit stones. Only this combo package was half price, and the total cost was only 10,000 spirit stones. This person did not understand

what the Yang family was thinking. He only knew that the package was the cheapest and he needed everything in the package, so he bought it without hesitation. He threw a bag of spirit stones on the table, took the things and left, as if he was afraid that the Yang family would regret it.

Yang Wenxu looked at the hot scene, and his mind could not help but think of the scene of the previous conversation with Qin Ruqing.

He originally wanted to ask the young lady what kind of "marketing plan" she would use for this cooperation. After all, the last auction was planned by the young lady, and the effect was very good. This time, the Yang family also thought that Qin Ruqing would do some publicity operation, but in the end, there was nothing.

Yang Wenxu remembered that when he expressed his doubts, the young lady's mouth curled up slightly, and she said firmly and proudly, "High-end ingredients often only need the simplest cooking methods. So, this time, just follow the normal promotion rhythm of your Yang family. Oh, I will make you a set meal, and you don't have to do anything else."

When she said the word "high-end ingredients", her tone was ups and downs, and coupled with the excitement between her eyebrows, it was hard to take your eyes off.

The Yang family followed the young lady's instructions completely, and sure enough, just as she said, the simplest cooking method, the combination of the vitality pill and the accelerator has pushed the effect of this field to the top, and it is also one of the things that the Xiling monks need most.

Therefore, there is no need to do too much, just let the word of mouth ferment.

In this way, seven days have passed.

During these seven days, the cultivation acceleration package launched by the Yang family has become popular in half of the city, not to mention the whole city. At this time, the secret report about this accelerator has been placed on the desks of the heads of the major families.

Tang Biao is holding this secret report in his hand now, and of course, he also has a complete set of acceleration packages, vitality pills and accelerators.

He frowned, and the red cube accelerator in his hand has been disassembled into small pieces. Tang Biao is trying to disassemble the accelerator and restore it.

Regardless of whether Tang Biao's talent is fake or not, and how many "gunmen" he has raised behind him, he himself comes from the largest family of weapon makers in Xiling, and has vision, experience and knowledge. But now that this small accelerator is in his hands, he doesn't understand it at all.

After taking it apart, the structure is extremely simple. The key lies in the materials used and the techniques used to forge the materials. But even so, with such a simple mechanism, Tang Biao took it apart and found that he couldn't fight back!

How can this be tolerated! It is

a well-known truth in the weapon maker circle that if you can take a strange spiritual weapon in your hand and disassemble it without looking at the drawings and restore it, it basically means that your level is higher than the weapon maker who invented the spiritual weapon. Vice versa.

Now, something with such a simple structure cannot be restored after being disassembled. Doesn't this mean that the person who refined this spiritual weapon is better than him? How could Tang Biao tolerate this?

He could accept that he was not a genius in refining weapons, but he could never accept that any random refiner from the streets of Xiling could be better than him.

Tang Biao was so angry that even the Dragon and Phoenix Cauldron was no longer fragrant. After smashing and destroying a bag of accelerators, he called his manager.

"In the secret room, is there anyone who can dismantle and restore this spiritual weapon?"

Tang Biao had claimed to be a genius, so he naturally couldn't let anyone pierce his skin. He had at least one "gunman" under his command. He used various methods and channels to capture those genius weapon makers who had shown their talents at various weapon refining conferences, and used drugs and other means to force and control them to refine weapons for him and provide inspiration.

Regarding this matter, the manager under him folded his hands and whispered, "No... at most half of it can be restored."

Halfway through, Tang Biao's face darkened, and he was about to go crazy again, and his red eyes were already staring at him. The steward's legs went limp, and he suddenly thought of something and said, "Second Master, aren't you going to attend the weapon refining conference held by the Immortal Product Bureau soon? That's a grand event, and this unknown weapon refiner might be just right..."

After saying this, the steward felt guilty, thinking about those weapon refiners in the secret room with blue eyes and looked like human beings, who were once so high-spirited, but now they were ruined by Tang Biao. If that unknown genius weapon refiner was really caught by Tang Biao, he would probably...

Alas, but what else could he do? He couldn't save them, and it was already difficult for him to save himself from the increasingly crazy Tang Biao.

Tang Biao seemed to be enlightened by this sentence. He had been getting increasingly irritable these days, precisely because of the weapon refining conference. He didn't care whether he could get a rank or not, but there were many colleagues in this conference, and they were all masters and elites in the industry. If he revealed any flaws when attending the conference, it would ruin his reputation... Now, with the steward saying this, this unknown weapon refiner might come at the right time.

After the rain, the sky cleared up, and Tang Biao's attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn. He said, "Isn't this thing launched by the Yang family? It should be related to the mysterious family behind them. You go and check. It doesn't matter whether you can find out about this family. The key point is... get it!"

The steward could only nod repeatedly.

This lasted for two days. Two days later, the steward came to report to Tang Biao with a horrified face, saying that the weapon refiner could not be caught...

Tang Biao saw this and became irritated, "Why can't you catch them? If brute force doesn't work, can't you use cleverness? Wait until they are alone..."

The steward shook his head, looking excited, "Because, that group of people live in... the Fifth Tavern."

Tang Biao's gloomy face solidified.

Yes, as early as when the accelerator began to become popular in the city, Qin Ruqing contacted the Xianpin Bureau and packed up her belongings with her friends and moved into the Fifth Tavern overnight.

The spies dared to enter here? The Fifth Tavern was the place where their ancestors and the outdated Zhang family ancestors met. When the old enemies met, they could hold back and not fight, because no one dared to make trouble on the territory of the Xianpin family.

Such an important industry is guarded by only stewards of the Xianpin family.

After Tang Biao was shocked, he gritted his teeth and said, "Could it be that the news that the Yang family spread about the last auction was not nonsense, and the mysterious family behind them is really related to the Xianpin family?"

The manager shook his head and expressed doubts.

No one expected that it was the Xianpin Bureau itself that revealed the answer.

They issued a decree, saying that a family conference would be held in a few days to announce an important matter. This matter is related to the future development of Xiling, and all family representatives must participate.

There is actually no problem with this. Since their new director took office, they have to issue a reform ordinance from time to time, or hold a conference.

The most different thing this time is that there is a line of words written at the end of the decree.

Please be informed that the official cooperative families of the Xianpin Bureau will jointly participate in this family conference.

What is the official cooperation family of Xianpin Bureau? ! ! When did Xianpin Bureau have this thing?
