Chapter 551: Good and Bad Fortunes Are Hard to Predict
Somewhere in unknown space.
A group of cultivators led by Long Yueyou, including Zhou Kebao, gathered together.
Discussing Li Fan’s recent actions.
Ever since they suffered a loss at the hands of Li Fan last time and were forced to cooperate with him, although they didn't mention it on the surface, everyone actually felt a little uneasy.
After all, they are all influential figures.
The plot against Li Fan failed, and he was defeated by the other party. Losing money is a small matter, but losing face is a big matter!
Even though the two parties have reached a "friendly cooperation" relationship on the surface, this does not prevent them from secretly tripping up "this fat sheep" Li Fan at the critical moment.
I wanted to vent the anger in my heart.
Therefore, they were very concerned about Li Fan's every move. Naturally, they could not hide such things as entrusting He Zhenghao to raise huge contribution points and then purchasing supplies on a large scale.
"Everyone, what do you think? Should we follow Li Fan and do the shopping together? Or should we..."
"Haha, you want to get rich by following him?" Someone in the room sneered disdainfully. "It's well known that this person is extremely sinister and cunning. Looking back at his past actions, every time he made a big fuss, it was all premeditated, trying to trick others."
"It hasn't been long since everyone at Puxian Zhenye suffered heavy losses. Have you forgotten about it?"
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Zhu, you can't say that. Things are different now. Now he, Li Fan, is the secret envoy of Congyun City and holds an official position. How can he continue to act recklessly like he did in the past? If he maliciously disrupts the market and undermines the stability of the Immortal Alliance again, will the headquarters let him off?" Another person sang a different tune.
As soon as these words were spoken, most of the monks present nodded secretly and expressed their agreement.
"That's right! In my opinion, he must have predicted something, which is why he made such a big move. You know, the fundraising plan that He Zhenghao is in charge of has been established since Li Fan appeared in the world. The fact that Li Fan was able to accumulate a great reputation in the early days is inseparable from this fundraising plan. It can be said that it is his signature! I don't believe he would do anything to damage his own reputation!"
"We followed! In terms of financial resources, can those rabble really compare to us combined?"
…
Everyone was clamoring, and for a moment, most of the cultivators were willing to follow Li Fan and synchronize their operations with him.
It can be seen that although they don't deal with Li Fan very well, they are still very convinced of his abilities.
While everyone was discussing heatedly, Zhou Kebao remained silent and had a frown on his face.
Long Yueyou, who was sitting in the middle with a faint smile on his face but still dignified, asked after seeing Zhou Kebao's performance, "What do you think of this, Brother Zhou?"
Unexpectedly, Zhou Kebao did not hesitate at all and answered directly: "There is no doubt that we can refer to Li Fan's purchase list and buy the same supplies."
Seeing Zhou Kebao's decisiveness, Long Yueyou couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise on his face. However, he did not interrupt him, but continued to listen patiently.
"The prices of these things will probably increase significantly in the near future."
Zhou Kebao's puzzlement grew stronger. "But this is what puzzles me. What if all the materials on the list were to increase in price?"
"If this really happened, then there is only one possibility."
"That's a huge battlefield that's about to break out."
Zhou Kebao flicked his fingers and a curtain of light appeared in the air.
Many characters appeared on the light screen, and the list on it was exactly the same as what Li Fan had told He Zhenghao.
After Zhou Kebao's words, everyone fell silent. They stared at the jumping characters on the screen, and were puzzled for a moment.
"War? With the Five Elders? Not really. We haven't fought with real weapons for years. Although the situation on the border has been tense recently, it won't deteriorate to the point of a real war, right?"
"That's right! Not long ago, the Five Elders took advantage of us and plundered the entire Wanxian Island. Didn't we just endure it? If a war really breaks out, it will have to be exposed first, right?" The first reaction of most of the cultivators present was disbelief.
"Have you heard any rumors recently? Is something wrong? If there really is a war, the parties below would not be completely unprepared." Long Yueyou asked in a serious tone at this moment.
There was silence for a moment.
Afterwards, each cultivator took out their communication talismans and activated their own channels to gather information.
But without exception, they all shook their heads in the end and gained nothing.
"Strange..." Zhou Kebao was even more confused.
All the monks looked at Long Yueyou, waiting for him to make the final decision.
Long Yueyou narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, recalling the scenes when he had dealt with Li Fan before. He always felt that he could not see through this person.
So an idea came to my mind.
"It's better to believe it than not to believe it. Li Fan is really capable."
"He must have foreseen something in the future. We can just follow him this time!"
Seeing that some people in the crowd were still reluctant, Long Yueyou smiled and said, "Everyone, go ahead and buy without worry."
"I've seen the supplies on this list. Although they are rarely used, the good thing is that the price is stable and they can be stored for a long time."
"Even if it's another trap set by Li Fan, we won't lose much."
"Of course, if you are still worried..."
"If an accident really happens, then our Long family can buy all the supplies you have at your purchase price."
"I'll make sure you won't get hurt again!" Long Yueyou said in a deep voice.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Because what Long Yueyou just talked about was not himself, but the Long family.
This shows that…
Seeing the cultivators come back to their senses with some surprised looks in their eyes, Long Yueyou said proudly, "Yes, my brother has recently had the honor of breaking through to the Hedao realm."
"After some operations, he will be transferred to the headquarters of the Governor's Hall."
"The relevant order will be issued soon. Even if I don't tell you, you fellow Taoists should be able to know it soon."
After receiving Long Yueyou's personal acknowledgement, the monks present were all ecstatic.
You know, this small group of theirs has been so intertwined over the years that they have actually become one.
When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer. And among them, Long Yueyou occupies the most dominant position.
The Long family is powerful, with connections throughout all states of the Immortal Alliance.
The only regret is that there is no one who can be considered the main pillar.
But now, with Long Yueyou’s brother being promoted to Hedao, he was transferred to the Immortal Alliance headquarters.
This only shortcoming will also be made up.
The Hedao monks at the Buzhengtang headquarters are definitely at the top of the Immortal Alliance's power structure.
So they all congratulated Long Yueyou from the bottom of their hearts.
"In the bitterly cold land of Tianling Province, Brother Jiuyuan has been dormant for a long time, and is finally about to soar into the sky. Congratulations!"
