Ximen Changqing personally sits in charge of the family shop, and together with other clan members, supervises the monks working to ensure that the shop can be completed with quality and quantity.
The stronger the family shop is built, the more proactive the clansmen will be the next time they encounter an enemy, and the greater their hope of escape.
In order to protect the safety of the clan members, it is worthwhile for the family to spend more high-level spiritual materials. At the same time, it can also improve the quality of the family shop.
In Xianjifang City, no other shops can order the elixir of life. Only Ximen's shop can order it. It is suitable to make the shop more upscale.
Seeing that Ximen's shop was being repaired by itself and nearby damaged shops, after much hesitation, they also started to repair themselves and were ready to ask for compensation.
Of course, the claim can be offset by the lease period. All shops are leased. If the lease years are increased, the loss can be offset.
At this moment, several elders from the four major sects are discussing how to deal with the aftermath.
Too many shops in the city have been damaged, some even seriously damaged, and they need to be responsible for repairs.
When most shops encounter this situation, the merchants bear the losses themselves, but Xianji Square has collected protection fees and made corresponding commitments, so they need to bear the losses.
"Have you calculated the statistics? How many shops have been lost?"
Zongshan asked anxiously.
"Elder, including all the damaged shops, there are a total of two thousand, and there are more than one hundred that were seriously damaged. These more than one hundred shops are almost completely destroyed."
A god-transforming monk reports the situation truthfully.
"The loss is so big, some of it will be compensated now. I shouldn't have promised to protect the safety of the shop in order to collect more spiritual stones. Now I have to pay all of it."
Gu He smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling that he had suffered a huge loss.
"When we first set the rules, we never thought about the combined monks coming to cause trouble. For thousands of years, let alone the combined monks, even the void-refining monks rarely came to Xianjifang City."
Haiping said.
"Fellow Daoist Haiping is right. If it hadn't been for the ordering of the ten thousand year elixir, Xianjifang City would not have attracted unorganized cultivators."
Aofeng frowned and replied.
Soon, the four of them laid the blame on the Ximen family.
This is also a fact. If the Ximen family was not too eye-catching, it would not have attracted two combined casual cultivators, nor would it have caused heavy losses to Xianjifang City.
But the four of them did not dare to speak openly, let alone ask the Ximen family to compensate. They were afraid of the Yanlong clan.
In their eyes, the Ximen family is a subsidiary force of the Yanlong clan, and embarrassing the Ximen family is embarrassing the Yanlong clan, which is not good for them.
"Fellow Taoists, it's useless to complain now. Let's think about how to deal with the next situation!"
Zongshan sighed and admitted defeat.
"Fellow Taoist Zongshan, there are too many damaged shops in the market this time. We can't raise too many resources at the moment. I'm afraid it will take half a year to repair all the damaged shops.
And the merchants definitely can’t wait, so I suggest that the merchants let them repair it themselves, and we promise a longer lease period and use the lease period to offset the merchants’ losses.”
Gu He came up with a good idea.
"Senior Gu, juniors would like to interrupt. In fact, the merchants have begun to repair it themselves. They also spread the word that the escort team is not doing a good job and threaten to ask us to compensate for the losses."
A god-transforming monk interjected.
"Oh, they have actually started repairs, they are moving very quickly!"
"Tell me the specific situation and who is in charge."
The four people asked eagerly and soon got the answers they wanted.
"The Li family is really generous! They actually used sixth-level spiritual materials to rebuild the shop. However, we can't compensate at this price.
At most, the loss calculated based on the previous building, converted into a lease period, is almost three thousand years."
Zongshan said.
"Leasing for three thousand years is too long. They may not be able to stay in Xianjifang City for three thousand years. I'm afraid they won't agree!"
Gu He said.
"What's the point of guessing here? Why don't we go visit them in person and ask them what they think!"
Haiping said.
"Yes, yes, we were a little rude for not helping before. Now we should go over and take a look and ask them what they want."
Aofeng nodded.
The four of them went to Ximen's store together and saw Ximen Changqing who was directing the construction.
"Fellow Taoist Li Qing, as long as everything is alright, we didn't expect that the small Xianjifang City could actually attract two late-stage fusion thieves.
Fortunately, there are seniors from the Yanlong Clan taking charge, otherwise, the entire Xianjifang City would probably be blown away!"
Zongshan spoke with a concerned look on his face, but the meaning behind his words clearly pointed out that the Ximen family had attracted thieves, causing the disaster in Xianjifang City.
If Ximen's shop hadn't been too eye-catching and attracted the covetous attention of the two old men, such a big incident would not have happened in Xianjifang City.
Ximen Changqing naturally understood the meaning of Zongshan's words. This was the fact. The two old men came to Ximen's shop.
"Haha! It's our fault for harboring the jade, which has implicated four fellow Taoists."
Ximen Changqing humbly admitted his mistake, but also expressed his intention to let the four major sects bear the losses.
"Haha! Fellow Daoist Li Qing is serious. It's because we are weak and failed to protect Xianjifang City. We must bear the losses that should be borne by us."
Gu He said with a smile.
"If there is anything else you need help with, Fellow Taoist Li Qing, just tell us. As long as we can help, we will try our best to help."
Haiping opened his mouth to express his good intentions, and his good intentions were obvious.
Ximen Changqing thought for a moment and made a suggestion: "Four fellow Taoists, this time the evil cultivators caused chaos and caused great losses to Xianjifang City.
In order to rebuild the popularity, I suggest holding a large-scale auction recently. In addition, the spiritual objects in my shop will be sold at a 20% discount for three days to increase the popularity."
"Okay, this is a good idea. Holding an auction can greatly increase the popularity of the market. It takes time to repair the shops and spread the news. It is appropriate to hold it one month later."
The four Zongshan people accepted the suggestion of holding an auction, which was also the most effective way to accumulate popularity.
Afterwards, the five people discussed the details of holding the auction and what spiritual objects to reveal during the preliminary publicity.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The elixir of life is definitely indispensable. Ximen Changqing is responsible for this, and the four major sects will also come up with many good things.
At the same time, other monks are also allowed to take out auction items, but they must be of a high enough grade. After the auction is successful, a 10% commission will be charged.
The news of the auction held in Xianjifang City one month later spread quickly, and the monks in the city quickly got the news.
"There are more than a dozen ten thousand-year elixirs in this auction, which will definitely attract many monks to participate."
"It should be able to attract many high-level monks. This is not a good thing for us. With our financial resources, how can we compete with a group of high-level monks."
"Yes! These ten thousand-year-old elixirs are mostly in the pockets of the fusion cultivators and the Void Refining cultivators. How can we, our little cultivators of spiritual transformation, compete with each other?"
"The important thing is to participate. It's also good to go and see it. Anyway, I will definitely participate."
"Well, it's good to go and learn a lot, I'll go too."
The monks who heard the news planned to participate in the auction with the intention of gaining knowledge.
They don't expect to grab the auction items, it is a very happy thing to see the ten thousand-year elixir with their own eyes.
At the highest peak of Ba Daomen, in a very elegant pavilion, four strong men sat facing each other.
From this pavilion, you can see the entire Badaomen. Inviting guests into this pavilion is the highest reception standard of Badaomen.
As the ancestor of the sect, Ba Xianbo personally received the three distinguished guests.
Of course, his most important guest is Yan Wen from the Yanlong clan. As for the two fellow Taoists from Tianqi Sect and Ten Thousand Beasts Valley, they are just here to keep him company.
Among them, the bald man from the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts has a cultivation level as high as the late Mahayana stage, and Zhang Yu from the Heavenly Weapon Sect has the same cultivation level as Ba Xianbo, which is in the middle stage of the Mahayana stage.
Obviously, the bald person has the highest level of cultivation. When the three of them got together before, bald people were the main ones.
But this gathering was dominated by Yan Wen. Although he was only an eighth-level middle-ranker, which was equivalent to the middle stage of the Mahayana, the Yanlong clan had a ninth-level elder, which was a prerequisite for receiving courtesy.
"Haha! Fellow Taoist Yanwen, try our Shaodao spirit wine. You must have never drunk such a strong spirit wine."
Ba Xianbo poured wine for Yan Wen very politely.
"Shaodao Lingjiu! Let me try it!"
Yan Wen was very interested and drank a large glass of wine.
"Well, it's good. It's really a good wine. It's very spiritual and has first-rate strength."
Yan Wen was quite satisfied with the Shaodao Spiritual Wine. It was the most satisfying spiritual wine he had ever drunk.
"Haha! Fellow Taoist Yanwen likes it, just drink more. I have plenty here."
Ba Xianbo directly took out a large altar and placed it on the table.
"Fellow Taoist Yanwen just has face. When we asked for Shaodao Spirit Wine, he always said it was gone. It was gone. He didn't even have enough to drink. Now it's all exposed!"
Zhang Yu looked at Ba Xianbo, smiled and stretched out his hand to ask for it.
"Fellow Taoist Zhang Yu is right, Taoist Ba Xianbo, how much Shao Dao Spirit Wine you still have, you might as well take it out! Let's make a jar for each of us."
Xie Ding also agreed and asked for more spiritual wine.
"How could you do this? Fellow Taoist Yanwen came here with great difficulty, so of course he has to give me enough. You come here every two days to drink. No matter how much you drink, it won't be enough for you."
Ba Xianbo did not agree to the two of them. He wanted to give Yan Wen the highest treatment. If he also gave Xie Ding and Zhang Yu the same spiritual wine, this highest courtesy would not be reflected.
"Huh, if you don't give it, I won't give it. Fellow Taoist Yanwen, here is my sect's oolong tea. It only takes a thousand years to produce a few cans. I will give you one as a gift."
Xie Ding also took out the specialties of the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley and gave them only to Yanwen, to show his attitude of making good friends with the Yanlong clan.
"Haha! Thank you very much."
Yan Wen accepted it without ceremony.
"Both of you give gifts to Fellow Taoist Yanwen. My Tianqi Sect cannot hold a lake. Fellow Taoist Yanwen, I have a pot of amethyst camel milk here. It will naturally satisfy your appetite. Try it."
Zhang Yu also took out the specialties of his sect and gave Yan Wen a pot.
"Thank you very much. You three all gave me gifts, but I was in a hurry to go out and I have nothing to give you. I'm so sorry!"
Yanwen accepted the gifts from the three people, but did not give any gifts in return.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Fellow Taoist Yanwen can come to see us, which is the biggest gift in return, hahaha!"
Ba Xianbo smiled and complimented.
Zhang Yu and Xie Ding also said good things again and again, and their attitudes towards Yan Wen were surprisingly good.
Afterwards, they first talked about the two fused monks who were killed, and scolded the two old men for a while.
After that, they talked about Ximen’s shop. In the hearts of the three ancestors, Ximen’s shop belongs to the Yanlong clan.
However, they don't understand why the Yanlong clan sent their subordinates to open shops in Xianjifang City.
The Immortal Continent is very big, and there are many more prosperous cities. For example, Ba Daofang City established by Ba Daomen, its scale and grade surpass that of Xianji City.
Shops that can order ten thousand years of elixir are fully qualified to enter Ba Daofang City.
Regarding this question, Yan Wen didn't know how to answer it, so he could only push the question to the clan leader Yan Han, saying that it was Yan Khan who gave the order and he didn't quite understand it.
Regarding this, the three ancestors all guessed that Yan Khan had other intentions, and then they thought of the fairy ruins ruins and what happened thousands of years ago.
They suspected that the Yanlong clan was also interested in the lost immortal artifacts, and sent affiliated forces to open shops in Xianjifang City in order to monitor the immortal ruins at all times and secretly search for traces of the immortal artifacts.
Of course, they don't care much about this. If the immortal weapon was so easy to find, it would have been found by the four major immortal clans long ago, and they wouldn't wait until now.
They have also searched for it, but there are no clues at all. Finding the lost fairy weapon is doomed to be hopeless.
The senior monks didn't care much about the passage of time. Three days passed while they were talking.
It was not until the arrival of Mahatma Ba that their conversation was interrupted.
"Mahatma, didn't you see that I have guests? Who asked you to come here?"
Ba Xianbo frowned when he saw Ba Shengxiong in the middle stage of integration.
"Ancestor, there is news from Xianjifang City that an auction will be held next month. There are more than a dozen ten-year-old elixirs up for bid, and two of them are what Ancestor needs."
Ba Shengxiong gingerly handed the detailed information to Ba Xianbo.
After seeing the detailed information, Ba Xianbo's mouth showed ecstasy, his eyes shone, and soon, a hint of anger appeared.
He had been searching for these two ten thousand-year-old elixirs for hundreds of years, but he just couldn't find them. He didn't expect to find them all at a mere auction. How could he be unhappy?
But he also ordered it from Ximen Family for several years. Since Ximen Family has the goods, why not contact him as soon as possible.
"Fellow Taoist Yanwen, this is your fault. Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing?
Xie Ding looked at Yan Wen with a somewhat reproachful expression. In his opinion, this must be Yan Wen's idea.
Of course, Yan Wen was so unjust. He didn't know about this at all. Hearing the bald man's complaint, he couldn't express his sorrow.
"Three fellow Taoists, this must be their impromptu idea. I don't know about the auction. I don't manage the shops in the market, really."
Yan Wen explained with a wry smile, feeling sorry for himself.
Of course, his explanation was not very effective, and the three ancestors did not believe it at all, but they did not criticize him again.
Their focus at the moment is on the spiritual objects in the auction, especially the dozens of ten thousand-year elixirs that have been announced, all of which are rare elixirs that they value very much.
