Chapter 219 Jinjiang Exclusive Release
——Thirty million kilograms of mutated grain.
After Fengxian broke Luochuan's record, Beijing broke Fengxian's record again.
The transaction volume in Jiangnan's largest gathering place is actually not less than that in the capital, but some of the accounts there have been settled in advance, so the remaining debt is not that outstanding.
Transactions with the imperial court naturally could not be conducted with a simple contract. Both parties recorded the contents of the contract in a formal document and stamped it with an official seal to ensure its authority.
Afterwards, the two sides spent an hour handing over all supplies except the greenhouse materials.
The new emperor awarded some of the valuable materials, including but not limited to space rings, biological clothing, salt and sugar, some medicines, hoverboards, etc. to the ministers present on the spot as a reward for their support to him and the people since the disaster.
The other court officials and nobles above the fifth rank who were not present were also rewarded in reduced amounts according to their ranks.
How the supplies would be distributed later had nothing to do with Lu Xuan. He left the palace cleanly and neatly with the contract.
The new emperor and his ministers continued to discuss the subsequent construction of greenhouses and the arrangements for contact locations.
Getting the supplies doesn't mean they can relax. On the contrary, the real busyness has just begun.
·
In the afternoon, the discussion finally came to an end.
The ministers left one after another, and the exhausted new emperor returned to his bedroom.
Normally at this time he would have to take a short nap to regain his energy so as to deal with today's memorials.
But the new emperor dismissed his attendants, gently stroked the simple yet exquisite space ring on his finger, and began to try to put the items in the bedroom into it one by one.
Palace lanterns, blue and white porcelain vases, candlesticks, incense burners, calligraphy and paintings, tea sets, tables and chairs, even pillows, quilts, and even the entire dragon bed disappeared out of thin air.
The emperor's bedroom, which originally had many exquisite ornaments and home accessories, became empty as if it had been looted.
Only after discovering that there were no more items that could be put away did the new emperor put the things in the space back out.
Then, as if he was not satisfied, he put it away, took it out, put it away, took it out, and repeated this four or five times before stopping, feeling unsatisfied.
His nerves, which had been tense and tense since he ascended the throne, finally relaxed at this moment, and a rare smile appeared on his young face, which already had some wrinkles between his brows.
The new emperor wore not only one space ring on his finger, but also several other rings with the largest capacity were filled with precious materials that had just been traded.
The new emperor fumbled with the ring, looking thoughtful.
Although Lu Xuan stated that he only needed supplies and did not need a promotion or a title of nobility or prime minister, the court could not really ignore a person who could provide such a large amount of supplies.
After Lu Xuan left, he recontacted Liu Wenchi and Huo Tiankuo, and asked them for more detailed information about Lu Xuan's temperament, background, strength and other aspects.
The guidance of the gods, the magic, and seemingly endless supplies... Such people are destined to be extraordinary.
As an emperor, he naturally does not want to have powerful people under his rule who are out of control.
But Lu Xuan's existence was different from any person of status he had come into contact with in the past, and he could not be dealt with by conventional means.
How exactly should we win over the other party... The new emperor tapped his fingers lightly on the Eight Immortals Table twice and fell into deep thought.
·
At that time, many ministers and nobles in the capital received rewards from the imperial palace.
When these people heard the uses of these materials from the father-in-law who brought them the rewards and gave an on-site demonstration, the entire upper class circle was in an uproar.
The Mansion of the Earl of Yiyong.
Uncle Yiyong and his wife, his two brothers and their wives, and other young men and women, totaling more than a dozen hosts, gathered together, their excited eyes all falling on the supplies that Uncle Yiyong took out of his space ring and placed on the table.
The new emperor was not stingy. In addition to at least one portable space of different capacities, the rewards he gave to each government office also included plenty of food and daily necessities.
Each of the masters and servants in the Bo's mansion picked up something that interested them and looked at it over and over again.
"Are these things really as magical as Eunuch Zhang said?"
"I don't know if it's magical or not, but this fruit is really big." The eldest son held the mutant apple in his hand and compared it with his head. He found that the apple was even bigger than his head.
The second young master was impatient. He took the nutritional supplement and said, "You'll know if it's really magical after trying it." After tearing open the bottle, he gulped down most of the nutritional supplement without waiting for others to stop him.
He originally wanted to eat the whole thing.
But after just two bites, I felt full. After barely finishing half of the stick, I was so full that I couldn't eat another bite. I could only lean back in the chair uncomfortably, breathing in with my mouth open: "I feel so full, so uncomfortable."
Mrs. Bo was frightened by his appearance and blamed him, "Who told you to eat so much? What if you get an upset stomach?"
The other young ladies who were also curious about the nutritional supplements withdrew their hands from reaching for the supplements when they saw the second brother's expression, and instead each grabbed some jerky or dried fruit to eat.
"These jerky look rough, but they taste really good and are filled with lots of ingredients!"
"The dried fruit is delicious too, so sweet! Better than any other fruit I've had before."
Not only do they eat it themselves, they also share it with their parents, and from time to time they exchange it with each other to discuss which one tastes the best.
Compared to young people who focus all their attention on food, the elders focus mainly on other items that are more useful.
Uncle Yiyong personally put on the biological suit and protective clothing to experience the constant temperature effect and protective ability, and exclaimed: "It really is a good thing!"
His second brother also tried on a biological suit. As he touched the special material of the suit, he sighed, "If we had these things when the disaster happened last year, maybe Mother wouldn't have been in trouble."
As soon as these words were spoken, the originally lively atmosphere in the hall suddenly became quiet.
As nobles in the capital, they would not be short of food and clothing in less than a year.
What's more, the dignitaries in Beijing have always had the habit of stockpiling ice, and many families have special summer villas, so even the hottest season is not too unbearable.
But this does not mean that they did not suffer any casualties.
Especially for young children with poor constitution or elderly people with illnesses, not every family, but at least most families have suffered from heat problems.
Some people survived by using precious medicinal herbs, but more people died due to the continued extreme climate.
It can be said that last year was the year with the most white flags hung in the upper circles of Beijing.
And because of the special circumstances, except for close relatives who will come to pay their respects, all funeral arrangements will have to be kept simple.
Even though they are sad for their deceased relatives, the continuous bad weather leaves them with no extra time and energy to continue to cherish their memories. They can only try their best to protect the safety of their living relatives.
Now that the disaster has come to an end, looking back, everyone in the Bo Mansion feels quite sad.
Yiyong Bo said in a deep voice: "We have escaped it, and things will get better and better in the future."
The others nodded, "That's right."
Uncle Yiyong did not monopolize the rare materials. He gave one biological suit and one protective suit to the second and third wives, a total of three each.
A lot of the remaining supplies were also distributed to the two brothers.
Among them, seafood and fruits are easy to spoil. Since there is only a space ring in the reward, I keep them by myself first, and then take out a small amount and share them with my brothers when it is time to eat.
Yiyong Bo also said, "Eunuch Zhang and I previously inquired about the source of the supplies. He didn't reveal much, but he did hint that some supplies would flow out later. We should pay more attention when the time comes, and try to stockpile more of some useful supplies."
The others agreed, and the two younger brothers said, "Tomorrow, no, I'll send someone out to find out more later."
Afterwards, the family cut up a mutant apple and shared it.
Eunuch Zhang, who delivered the reward, said that eating these large mutant fruits can strengthen the body.
When a new round of disasters begins, they will have better physical strength to cope with it.
They couldn't feel the effects of the fruit for the time being, but its crisp, sweet and refreshing taste received unanimous praise from the Bo family.
…
In the private residence of a poor official named Li, two streets away from Bo's mansion.
Lord Li also received rewards from the palace.
Lord Li had been an official for only five years and was only a fifth-rank official, and was only allocated a biological suit.
But it was this biological clothing that made my wife, who was afraid of cold, feel the rare warmth after putting it on.
My old father, who had been bedridden and too weak to speak, got out of bed on his own for the first time after taking the right medicine, and his voice was as loud as when he was not sick.
The two children, who had not tasted anything sweet for more than a month, ate the sweet candies and smiled with satisfaction on their slightly haggard faces.
Mr. Li's mother is a devout Buddhist. She watched her husband recover with her own eyes and prayed for the blessing of the Buddha.
Lord Li knew, however, that this had nothing to do with the Bodhisattva, but was clearly the emperor's great grace.
Not only did the treasure restore the health of his relatives, but the nutritional supplements that might seem insignificant to others also solved Lord Li's urgent needs.
The Li family was originally poor, and even though Lord Li became an official, they still lived a tight life because of the high expenses in the capital.
After the disaster, the imperial court changed the payment of food and salaries to silver in order to save material expenses, which made the already struggling Li family's life even worse. There was almost no oil and water, and the whole family looked pale.
The father-in-law who delivered the reward said that the nutritional supplement not only fills the stomach, but also prevents the body from becoming weak due to lack of oil and water!
Even though Lord Li's rank was not high, he still received hundreds of nutritional supplements.
The Li family, plus a few servants, consisted of no more than ten people. If they ate sparingly, the nutritional supplements alone would be enough for him to survive for three or four months.
How could Lord Li not be filled with gratitude for such a great imperial grace?
Even though he knew the emperor couldn't see him, he still bowed deeply and solemnly in the direction of the palace to express his gratitude.
·
Other officials from poor families with similar backgrounds reacted similarly to Lord Li.
The other high-ranking officials and nobles who received greater rewards were filled with shock and ecstasy.
Even though the noble families still maintain the same dignity as before the disaster, in fact, their lives are not necessarily easy in private.
After the disaster began, it was almost impossible to continue farming and obtaining food in the village. Last year's farm income was almost zero, and everyone ate the food that was urgently stockpiled at the beginning of the disaster.
Later, when they wanted to stockpile more, the palace had already taken action and took control of the bulk of the supplies.
The population of a noble family is large, and including servants and guards, one or two hundred people is considered a small number, and the exaggerated number can reach a thousand.
The amount of food consumed by so many people every day is not a small amount, and they also have to reserve food for the next few years. Unless they are particularly carefree, few families can continue to indulge in fish and meat.
Some fallen nobles with little financial resources had already secretly sought help from their in-laws.
If Lu Xuan had arrived a little later, the number of officials and nobles borrowing food from everywhere would have doubled, and the last bit of face that the nobles had barely maintained would have been overturned.
Even if we put aside the most important food, each family still has scarce supplies.
For example, salt.
Normally, almost no one pays special attention to it, but in fact it is as indispensable as food.
The salt in the capital came from Jiangnan or other salt-producing areas.
After the earthquake, the transportation routes were cut off and the inventory in the capital became less and less. Even the wealthy officials and dignitaries could not eat salt freely due to the shortage of supply.
As early as last month, almost every household in Beijing reduced their salt intake and was forced to eat lighter meals, only able to ensure the most basic intake.
The new emperor knew this situation - because the taste of the imperial meals had also become lighter - so he deliberately added salt to the rewards this time.
This seemingly insignificant item made many people very happy.
Many elderly ladies from prominent families convert to Buddhism when they get older, or eat light food for health reasons.
But that's what they eat on their own initiative. Occasionally, during festivals, they'll eat some oily food to improve the taste.
Now, being forced to eat only bland soup for every meal, how many of the pampered ladies can bear it?
When the old lady of the Duke's Mansion learned that His Majesty had rewarded her with dozens of kilograms of salt, she didn't care about the biological clothes or how magical the portable space was. She couldn't wait to ask the kitchen to prepare some meals with plenty of oil and salt.
What's the point of raising a child? She wants to eat meat! She wants to eat salt!
·
Bai family, in the study in the main courtyard.
Lu Xuan handed a space ring filled with supplies to the Bai family father and son and Lord Xie respectively.
"This is the promised thank you gift for the matchmaking."
The people on both sides took the ring and checked the contents. After confirming that the amount of supplies was not too much, they did not refuse and accepted it calmly.
In the face of disaster, it is not shameful to stock up as much supplies as possible for your family and receive some well-deserved gifts of thanks.
However, the three of them soon noticed that in addition to some daily food and drink supplies, there was also an unfamiliar item in the space.
"What is this?" Xie Hou took out an object that looked like a helmet but was too delicate, and tapped it with his fingers. "Boss Lu doesn't seem to have traded this item with the imperial court?"
Lu Xuan said: "This is a holographic helmet for entertainment."
The court traded materials mainly for disaster relief and to appease the people. Survival was the most important thing. Non-essential spiritual needs such as entertainment were not yet pursued, and were even less suitable for official transactions.
However, after the private transaction, if the new emperor or someone in the court is interested in this, there will be no need to deliberately restrict them from conducting the transaction with Lu Xuan.
Xie Hou and Bai's father seemed to have understood something, but they were still a little confused as to how a helmet could be used for entertainment.
As a young man, Bai Xuefeng is even more interested in this.
Lu Xuan asked Bai Xuefeng to put on the helmet and actually operate it.
Father Bai and Lord Xie clearly felt that Bai Xuefeng, who was wearing a helmet, was shaken all over. The pupils of his eyes covered by the mirror of the helmet suddenly shrank, as if he had seen something incredible.
After a moment, Bai Xuefeng suddenly took off his helmet and gasped in shock.
He looked at Lu Xuan in horror and stammered, "Just now, why did I feel like I was in another place, and there was someone talking in my head... Am I dreaming?"
Or was the person speaking actually an immortal? Had he encountered an immortal?
Lu Xuan asked back: "Do you think it's a dream?"
Bai Xuefeng murmured, "No, it can't be a dream."
In such a real environment, I can feel real pain after pinching my thigh. It can't be fake no matter how I think about it.
Lu Xuan then briefly explained how to use the holographic helmet and the games contained in it.
The other three people present were stunned.
Is there such a magical thing?
No, portable space, biological clothing, flying floating bus, which one is not amazing?
Now it's just one more thing.
Although Lord Xie is approaching the age of fifty, he is young at heart. He put on his own helmet with great interest and experienced the wonderful holographic world for himself.
Seeing this, Father Bai naturally followed.
Bai Xuefeng, who was frightened, certainly didn't want to be left behind, so he logged in again.
As a 'senior', Lu Xuan had to go in and help them start their first exploration of the holographic world for newcomers.
After they started playing, no one logged off for the next hour.
If the servants from the Marquis' Mansion hadn't come to look for someone at the last minute, Marquis Xie would have wanted to play all day and all night long.
"Didn't I tell you that I have something to discuss at the Bai family, so you don't have to come to me." Xie Hou, who was forced to log off, looked unhappy.
The servants of the Marquis' Mansion were also in a dilemma. "There are guests at the mansion, and Madam has asked me to urge you to return as soon as possible."
"Guest?" Xie Hou frowned. "Who would come to cause trouble when it's not a festival and there's a shortage of supplies?"
Servants of the Marquis’ Mansion: “…A lot.”
Xie Hou's face darkened. "What do you mean by a lot? Are there people gathering to cause trouble?"
Father Bai suddenly thought of something and reminded: "Maybe someone got wind of it."
In fact, Xie Hou had guessed this as soon as he said this, but he still sighed in his heart.
Normally, when asked to help with disaster relief and provide supplies to the victims, they would make excuses, but this time they were all very enthusiastic.
Marquis Xie put away his helmet and said, "There are guests in the mansion, so I will be leaving today."
He glanced at Lu Xuan, and a slightly gentle expression appeared on his face, which was always serious when facing his younger generation. "The emperor will probably need you again in the future. You can stay at the Bai family for now."
Lu Xuan nodded. There was still time before the end of the hibernation period, so it wouldn't be a problem even if he stayed in the capital for a few more days.
After Xie Hou left, the Bai family's father and son wanted to continue playing the game, but soon, the Bai family's housekeeper came to report: the Bai family also had guests.
The Bai family father and son found it strange.
Father Bai jokingly asked the housekeeper, "Could it be that we have a lot of guests coming to our house all at once?"
The guest had a strange expression on his face. "Master, you really guessed it right. Aren't there a bunch of them here?"
Father Bai: “……?” I was just saying it casually.
They are not rich and powerful. Normally, they don’t have a guest for ten days or half a month. How could they have so many guests coming?
Bai Xuefeng asked, "Who are they?"
The butler still looked surprised. "They are all ministers in the court, sons of noble families, and several daughters of wealthy families. There are more than a dozen people in total."
The Bai family father and son: "..."
Then the two of them looked at Lu Xuan, who had no reaction.
What do they watch the anchor for?
[Could it be that these people are also here for supplies? ]
They were right. These second and third generation powerful people did come for supplies.
Since all the visitors were young people, it was natural that Bai Xuefeng should be the one to receive them.
As soon as Bai Xuefeng and Lu Xuan appeared in the reception room, the young masters from various families who were drinking tea inside greeted Bai Xuefeng enthusiastically.
He called "Brother Bai", "Jinzhi" and "Brother Bai" so affectionately that those who didn't know would think they were very close friends.
But with just a little observation, you would notice that Bai Xuefeng's expression was strange.
Moreover, although these people called each other affectionately, their actions were not very close. Not to mention a good relationship, Lu Xuan even suspected that some of them were seeing Bai Xuefeng for the first time.
The actual situation is not that exaggerated.
The rest of them had met Bai Xuefeng once or several times. They knew him, but they were not really familiar with him. They could barely be considered acquaintances, not to the extent of visiting each other's homes.
Two of them even openly expressed their disdain for Bai Xuefeng.
Now these people smiled very friendly, as if they had completely forgotten their previous attitudes.
The audience in the live broadcast room who guessed the intention of these people couldn't help but sigh:
[Children from powerful families are indeed very smart.]
【It should be said that there is no gain without early rise. 】
When we need you, we're like brothers. When we're no longer, you're just 'who are you?' Funny jpg.
[But these people all look like dogs.]
[Not surprising. Powerful families, generation after generation, marry beautiful wives to improve their genes. Even if they were originally short, poor, and ugly, they could be improved to become tall, rich, and handsome, unless they regress.]
[God damn, you're going to make me laugh to death.]
After exchanging a few simple pleasantries with Bai Xuefeng, these young masters and daughters turned their gazes to Lu Xuan, probing him, "I heard that the person who took out the space ring, biological clothing, and other supplies is at your house. Is this the person? Brother Bai, can you introduce him to us?"
Bai Xuefeng glanced at Lu Xuan and saw that he looked normal before he said, "Lu Xuan."
The others waited for a moment, but when nothing happened, they asked suspiciously, "That's it?"
Bai Xuefeng's attitude towards them showed no sign of flattery, and he asked in return: "What else?"
Doesn't he know the contempt chain among the young masters in the powerful circle of Beijing?
His family and the Marquis's Mansion are related by marriage, and they are also relatives of the Minister of Revenue. However, when his grandparents passed away, they helped separate the two branches to prevent his father and second uncle from having a relationship affected by family property issues in the future. Now they are considered two families.
Therefore, since no one in their family is an official, they are not a family of officials in the true sense.
As the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion, my aunt lives a secluded life. The fact that the Marquis's Mansion is close to them does not mean that other powerful people in the capital will also care about them.
Bai Xuefeng has been in Beijing for almost a year and has not been able to integrate into this circle of people.
If it was said that Lu Xuan was just from a small village in the north, even if these people came to him for supplies, there was no guarantee that they would instinctively show disgust after knowing Lu Xuan's origins.
He naturally wouldn't give them this opportunity.
Everyone present came for supplies, and when they saw Bai Xuefeng's attitude, they did not dwell on this issue any further.
A young master from the Bo Mansion couldn't wait to ask Lu Xuan: "Master Lu, do you have any good things you can trade with us?"
Others followed closely behind, "Yes, the rewards from the emperor are all good things, but the quantity is too small. We have so many people in our family, there is simply not enough to go around."
Live broadcast audience: ???
"Rewards are free, so if you can get some, just be happy. Why are you complaining about the small amount? Do you still expect the emperor to take care of your entire family's food and drink? Is the emperor your father?"
Lu Xuan deeply agreed with this.
But this does not affect doing business with them.
If you ask what these people want most, the first choice is definitely a greenhouse.
The importance of food in times of famine is self-evident.
However, these people probably knew long ago that the greenhouse transaction could not be reached, and other more important supplies were discussed by their fathers and Xie Hou. What they mainly wanted to trade were some small gadgets that they could use.
A young man from a certain marquisate said, "I tried playing with a hoverboard at home, and it really can take you up into the sky. It's quite fun! Do you have any other fun things like this?"
Although these people did not suffer from hunger during the disaster, they still lived a miserable life.
It’s too hot and I don’t have the energy to go out. It’s raining heavily and I can’t go out. In the extremely cold season, I’m afraid of getting frozen and have to continue to stay indoors.
I haven't had the chance to go out for a good walk for more than half a year, and I'm almost going crazy from holding myself back.
Cuju cannot be played indoors, and they are tired of playing touhu after a few months, so they are now eager to try something new.
Lu Xuan did not disappoint them. He waved his hand and took out all the remote control toys that Lu Chen and other children were tired of playing with, including racing cars, remote control airplanes, and remote control boats.
After Lu Xuan showed them how to operate these toys, the eyes of more than a dozen young masters and ladies instantly lit up as bright as day, and they couldn't wait to run to the yard and each control a toy car to play with it.
A few people set up track races, and the others cheered everyone on, and the quiet yard suddenly became lively and noisy.
But they soon discovered that the remote-controlled toys were just the appetizer.
Once the holographic helmet, the highlight, was taken out, things became truly unstoppable.
…
After the elders of each family negotiated a partial material transaction with Marquis Xie, they did not stay in the Marquis's mansion for long and returned home.
But when the younger generation of the Bai family came back after waiting until it was dark, they still hadn't seen him. They couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the person was detained by the Bai family?
Several suspicious families immediately sent people to the Bai family to look for them. After bringing the people back and asking them, they found out that the Bai family had not done anything to them. They were just having so much fun that they forgot about time.
The elders were surprised and asked, "What game makes you so addicted?"
As the top dignitaries in the capital, are there any tricks they haven't tried?
The fact is, it really does exist.
When the younger generations took out the extra holographic helmets and gave them to their parents, several heads of families did not sleep well that day.
The game is so fun!
·
On the other hand, Lu Xuan put the IOUs written by these young masters of noble families together with the documents from the court.
Although this amount of income is only a fraction compared to the tens of millions of kilograms of supplies of the imperial court, a mosquito is still meat, and Lu Xuan does not despise it.
It was only after the transaction was completed that the audience in the live broadcast room realized some of the bad habits of the ancient dignitaries.
[I remember that many ministers in the ancient dimension would borrow money from the Ministry of Revenue, and then become debtors for not paying back their debts. Will the host encounter this situation?]
[Some people will definitely try to deny their debts, but again, it's impossible for them to deny the streamer's debts unless they no longer need the other supplies and support provided by the streamer.]
[As for those people in Jiangnan, they all seem to have holes in their brains. Nine times out of ten they will default on their debts.]
The audience recalled the live broadcast process in Jiangnan a few days ago, and the desire to complain instantly burst out.
[The people of Jiangnan have been acting like local tyrants for so long that they no longer know their own weight. To put it bluntly, they deserve to be punished!]
[The Jiangnan faction fell out with the anchor and got beaten up. The other gathering places were all incredibly grateful to the anchor after the transaction. They probably wanted to eat the anchor.]
Lu Xuan frowned unhappily when he thought of Jiangnan.
Jiangnan has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times, but it is also a region where power distribution is very chaotic.
Officials are corrupt, there are many aristocratic families, there are greedy salt merchants, and there are countless brothels... It is both prosperous and filthy.
This situation becomes even more extreme after the disaster.
There is no shortage of food or water in the south of the Yangtze River, even though the floods are more serious than in the north. Because many people live on the water and there is no shortage of boats, quite a few people survived.
As for the prominent families with rich family background who survived the earthquake, they were hardly affected. Instead, they lived an even more luxurious life.
There are many prominent families in Jiangnan, and the distribution of their power is very complex. There are more than a dozen large families with profound heritage.
Except for a few of these prominent families who still had some humanity, the rest began to oppress the people in various ways after they were sure that the court was unable to support them, and took advantage of the chaos to semi-forcibly seize land and people.
The environment and resources are obviously better than those in Feng County, and the food in the homes of ordinary people is enough for them to eat for two or three years. However, due to the oppression of the wealthy and powerful families, the people in the south of the Yangtze River live worse than those in Feng County.
During the Midnight Beast Attack, many people were used as cannon fodder by prominent families, resulting in countless casualties.
Although the government still exists, it is in cahoots with the prominent families and works together with them.
Therefore, when Lu Xuan arrived in Jiangnan and revealed his whereabouts and stated his purpose, his situation was completely different from that in other gathering places.
Scrutinizing, suspicious, and condescending, they discovered that he truly had supplies, and then, greedy, they tried to drug him at night but failed, so they robbed him openly. When that didn't work, they tried to arrest him directly...
It can be said that the Jiangnan forces have used all means to achieve their goals, including sinister and despicable tricks.
Since people were so enthusiastic towards him, Lu Xuan naturally had to reciprocate.
Not only did he engage in a brawl with the locals for the first time in a gathering place for businessmen, but he also ended up increasing the prices of all supplies provided to the aristocratic families by 50% to double, making a huge profit.
Also because Lu Xuan disliked those prominent families, Jiangnan became the only place after Yangshan County where he did not provide evolution liquid to major forces.
He sold the evolutionary fluid at a discount to other suppressed civilian organizations in the gathering place.
He also didn't plan to provide evolutionary fluid to the prominent families in the future.
When the Jiangnan gathering place regained contact with other cities, they found that other forces had obtained trump cards with extraordinary abilities, but they were the only ones who did not. They would regret it one day.
