"Very good, very good. Young friend, you are indeed reasonable."
The group exchanged pleasantries for a long time.
"Let's stop here for today. Because of the misunderstanding between you and Xinggong recently, rumors have been spreading and the outside world is in an uproar. You need to come forward and explain this matter."
"Alright, I've got it."
Li Daoxuan bid farewell to the group and left the Star Palace.
Before leaving, they gave him an identity token. Now that Star Island has become a powerful backer of Fengrao, there should be some kind of reward.
This token is the symbol of an honorary elder's status. With this token, one can enter and leave the Star Palace without hindrance.
Don't rush back to headquarters; go home first and let them know you're safe.
......
"Xueqi, I'm back."
Li Daoxuan pushed open the door and entered.
Hearing the noise, Lu Xueqi hurriedly left the room.
Seeing Li Daoxuan return unharmed, she breathed a sigh of relief and then threw herself into his arms.
She had been living in constant fear these past few days, afraid that things would develop in ways that Li Daoxuan had not predicted.
"I'm sorry to have worried you."
Touching her head, Li Daoxuan spoke softly.
"It's good that you're back..."
Lu Xueqi shook her head.
While the two were enjoying their tender moment, Li Qingyu also emerged from the cultivation room.
"father!"
"Xiaoyu, how's your cultivation going lately?"
Li Daoxuan turned around.
"Thankfully, everything went smoothly."
Li Qingyu pursed her lips and continued, "Father, please help me refine a Breakthrough Pill. I want to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."
She only broke through to the Golden Core stage a few days ago, so it's too early for her to try to break through to the Nascent Soul stage now.
Seeing Nizi's serious expression, Li Daoxuan agreed.
The premise of doing it too early is that there is no external assistance. Even if the breakthrough fails, there will be no problem with the Breakthrough Pill.
"Alright, since my daughter has asked, how can I, as her father, refuse?"
Without saying a word, Li Daoxuan went into the alchemy room and started refining.
A mere fourth-tier breakthrough pill is nothing to him, who is already at the seventh tier.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a brand new batch of Breakthrough Pills was produced.
He walked out of the alchemy room and handed the pill to Li Qingyu.
"No need to push yourself too hard, take it slow, there's plenty of pills."
Li Daoxuan gave his instructions.
Judging from her expression, you can tell why she did this. It's probably because of recent events that made her feel uneasy.
Indeed, in her heart, he had always been an invincible and all-powerful figure. Suddenly, even such a figure faced a crisis that he couldn't resolve, which ignited her desire to protect him and Lu Xueqi.
Li Daoxuan seemed to be deep in thought. According to the novel template, if he and Xueqi were to perform the sacrificial ceremony at this moment, it would have the feel of the "Empress's Rise" template.
He scoffed inwardly, thinking, "This little girl doesn't know that hard work can't beat someone with cheat codes."
Your old man is someone who gets stronger by spending money; you can't catch up to him through hard work.
Now that Xinggong is backing me, it's not impossible to earn billions or even tens of billions every year in the future.
At that time, his cultivation level will increase rapidly.
Li Qingyu nodded and took the pills into the cultivation room.
He then spent the next day building a relationship with Lu Xueqi before reluctantly returning to headquarters to take charge of the overall situation.
......
"President Li, you're finally back! Did Xinggong give you any trouble?"
Upon receiving Li Daoxuan's notification, the presidents of these chambers of commerce rushed over without stopping.
"No, it's all thanks to everyone's efforts these past few days that I, Li, have remained safe and sound. I am extremely grateful."
Li Daoxuan said with a smile.
"Don't mention it. We're all family. How could we not help Chairman Li when he was in trouble? Now that Chairman Li is back, Fengrao should get back on track."
The group exchanged smiles.
The method worked.
"The Star Palace was really unreasonable before, detaining Chairman Li for no reason. Do they really think our Fengrao is made of clay?"
"Yes, the abundance is not what it used to be."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
“Everyone, please be careful with your words. The previous incident between Fengrao and Xinggong was only due to a misunderstanding. After these few days of conversation, the misunderstanding has been cleared up.”
Li Daoxuan interrupted.
Everyone was somewhat surprised; what was wrong with Chairman Li?
Zhao Tiande sorted out his thoughts: "President Li, you haven't reached a cooperation agreement with Xinggong, have you?"
"Yes and no, I won't keep you in suspense. Abundance lacks nothing but its own foundation and strength. Now, the Star Palace has become Abundance's backer."
From now on, we won't have to be so timid in our development in the Star Chariot Sea; Star Island has officially become a bountiful base.
Li Daoxuan told the truth.
Everyone frowned. It seemed that Xinggong had seen how wealthy and powerful Fengrao was and wanted a piece of the pie.
However, they couldn't really say anything. It was understandable that Sing Tao wanted to participate, as long as they weren't prevented from eating cake together, they were all one family.
"You all must understand that abundance is not the abundance of one person. The more forces involved, the stronger we become. The more unrealistic it is for others to think they can shake our foundation. This is the collective interest. If anyone wants to make a move, they must ask all of us first."
Li Daoxuan said quietly.
Upon hearing this, everyone's brows relaxed.
Indeed, in that case, Sing Tao joining would be nothing short of a good thing.
"Chairman Li sees things more clearly."
Everyone nodded.
"Alright, let's clarify the recent 'rumors' together, and also spread the news of Star Island joining."
"Open all the closed shops in the bountiful area and hold an event to appease the cultivators."
Li Daoxuan gave the instructions.
"Do as Chairman Li says."
They had no objections.
So everyone issued statements saying that the rumors from a few days ago were a misunderstanding, and now all the shops in Fengrao have reopened.
Fengrao apologizes for the unnecessary trouble caused recently. To express its apologies, all items in Fengrao shops will be sold at a 10% discount for seven consecutive days.
"It's a misunderstanding. It's alright now. As long as there are benefits to be had, we'll do more of this in the future."
"Absolutely, absolutely! It would be even better if the discount were even lower."
"They're offering discounts? If we wait any longer, everything will be sold out!"
The reopened Fengrao Shop is doing booming business.
Many cultivators rushed to buy, since a 10% discount is not common. If they could buy it now, they could make a profit by selling it to other cultivators at the original price later.
The shop owners, whose businesses had been closed for a long time, beamed with joy as gleaming spirit stones flowed into their pockets.
“When I was doing business on my own before, my monthly profit was only a few hundred thousand yuan. Now that I’ve joined Fengrao, my income has increased more than tenfold.”
The business owners were deeply moved.
"Yeah, I'm not going to say anything more. The accumulated inventory is about to be sold out. I need to contact headquarters to get more stock right away."
The booming business has led to many shops selling out in just one day.
At this time, no one wanted to miss the opportunity to make money, and orders kept coming to Fengrao's headquarters.
Li Daoxuan also urged all factories to speed up production. Secondly, now that they had the support of Xingdao, the factories could openly expand.
After Xinggong informed him of this, Xinggong readily allocated him a large plot of land for factory construction.
Secondly, while independent cultivators focus on discounts, major powers are more concerned with Star Island becoming a bountiful backing.
