Chapter 59 Background and Footwork

Return to the inn.

Lu Changan sold the stolen goods for the last time and sold four magical artifacts for a recycling price of two hundred and dozens of spiritual stones.

Today I made three trips to sell stolen goods, and sold a total of six to seven hundred spirit stones. Although I lost some money, I did save a lot of trouble.

Lu Changan returned to his original appearance and checked out of the inn.

Pass by shops in the business district.

He paid attention to the raw materials of the second-level talismans.

The second-level talisman paper, spiritual ink, and talisman pen are based on the second-level monsters, corresponding to the foundation building stage, and are very scarce.



Daochang Guan's stall is located on this market street, and Lu Changan stopped by to take a look.

"Senior Brother Lu."

The girl with bright eyes and white teeth had just completed a transaction with a customer.

Seeing the quiet young man in white robe, Guan Qiaozhi's eyes lit up and she waved happily.

"Mr. Guan, how is business today?"

Lu Changan came to the stall and looked at the goods.

Talisman paper, spiritual ink, monster skins, talisman atlas, and middle- and low-grade talismans.

After Lu Changan came to Huanglong Fairy City, he took some care of Master Guan and his disciples.

He needed raw materials to draw talismans, so he simply used relatively cheap talismans and exchanged materials with Taoist Master Guan and his apprentices.

This benefits both parties.

Guan Daochang's stall sells many high-quality talismans. Although the profit itself is not high, it can expand the categories and improve the reputation.

In the past two years, the stall's revenue and profit have increased slightly.

For Lu Changan, it not only obtained the materials for drawing talismans, but also created more channels for selling talismans.

I have to say that Guan Qiaozhi is really ingenious. At such a young age, she is very good at making talisman paper, and she is also capable of making high-quality talisman paper.

"Thanks to Master Lu, the business is pretty good. In a few years, we will have a firm foothold in the inner city."

The wrinkles on Daochang Guan's face relaxed and he smiled happily.

Although Lu Changan recognized him as an immortal, Taoist Master Guan did not consider himself a senior and usually addressed himself as Lu Fu Master.

“Qiaozhi’s craftsmanship is really good.”

Lu Changan picked out a few high-quality talisman papers and was quite satisfied with them.

"Of course! I also helped the puppet master next door to process puppet parts. Master Sang also praised my skill and said that he would give me a puppet dog in the future."

Sixteen-year-old Guan Qiaozhi has exquisite and delicate facial features, pure and agile. When she talks about her pride, her eyebrows curve into a crescent shape.

In the past two years, she gradually forgot the fact that Lu Changan was older than her biological father.

I feel a sense of trust and closeness to this senior brother who came out halfway.

Lu Changan secretly regretted that Guan Qiaozhi's spiritual consciousness was mediocre, otherwise his talent for dexterity would make him a good choice whether he was drawing talismans or becoming a puppet master.

While the two were talking, three male cultivators came over menacingly.

"Old man Guan! Why are you setting up a stall here again?"

The monk in blue shirt who was leading the eighth level of Qi Refining said with a bad expression.

"Fellow Daoist Meng, there are no explicit regulations on the stall area of ​​the market. We are not allowed to set up stalls here."

Taoist priest Guan had some scruples and a calm mind.

"The price of the talismans you sell is too low, which violates the regulations of the 'talisman alliance'. Either set up a stall further away, or the price must meet the quality."

The monk in blue shirt said dissatisfied.

"Old man Guan, I advise you to be more sensible. There are no explicit rules in the stall area, but there are unspoken rules here, and those who violate them will not have a good end."

"With your age, you can be a strong person, but you have to think about your female disciple."

The two men behind the blue-shirted monk gave verbal advice and explicit or implicit threats.

Seeing this scene, Lu Changan instantly understood the reason.

It's just that Taoist Master Guan's talismans are of high quality and low price, and his income has increased, which makes his colleagues unhappy.

The price of the talisman sold by Guan Daochang is actually normal, but the quality is slightly better. After all, it is the talisman refined by Lu Changan, and the quality is good and stable.

1. It does not violate the regulations of the market stall area.

Second, it will not affect the market order and is not considered a malicious price reduction.

The so-called "talisman alliance" mostly uses chicken feathers as command arrows.

In a Qi refining period, how much say can one have in the Talisman Master Alliance?

"Fellow Taoist, I would like to ask. In this market, which one is more powerful, your 'Fu Alliance' or the order of Huanglong Immortal City?"

Lu Changan said lukewarmly.

"Who are you?"

The monk in blue shirt frowned and looked at the young monk in front of him who was in the late stage of Qi refining.

They threatened the two Taoist priests mainly because they saw that they were weak and easy to bully.

Want to extort some benefits.

It was really hard for them to answer Lu Changan's question.

In Huanglong Immortal City, the biggest rule is naturally the number one casual cultivator in the Liang Kingdom, Huanglong Zhenren.

Master Huanglong is famous for his reputation. Not only is he in the middle stage of pill formation, but he also has a third-level earth dragon spirit beast that contains a trace of the blood of the ancient Huanglong.

"Fellow Taoist, what does this matter have to do with you?"

The three of them knew they were in the wrong and avoided Lu Changan's questioning.

"My surname is Lu, and I provide talismans for Guan Lao's stall. Do you think it has anything to do with it?"

Lu Changan said angrily.

The three of them looked stunned and looked at each other.

"May I ask, what level of Talisman Master is Mr. Lu Dao?"

The leading monk in blue shirt had a smile on his face and was much more polite.

"First-class top grade."

The expressions of the three of them changed slightly, and their aura became weaker.

"As a high-level Talisman Master, why didn't you join the Talisman Alliance? My teacher is a second-level Talisman Master of the Huanglong Immortal City Talisman League. I wonder where you are, Mr. Lu Dao?"

The monk in blue shirt said with twinkling eyes.

There were many stall owners and monks around to watch the fun, so he couldn't let his momentum weaken and use the title of second-level talisman master.

"I don't care what talisman alliance you have, you are a second-level talisman master. Lu's friend is a foundation-building monk in Jinyun Valley. If you continue to fool around and doubt your belief, go to the Jinyun Valley station to argue."

Lu Changan spoke forcefully and showed a token of Jinyun Valley.

"A foundation-building friend of Jinyun Valley?"

The three monks in blue shirts trembled in their hearts. They were so powerful that they dared to continue to entangle.

"Master Lu Fu, what happened today is just a misunderstanding. Let's make peace and make money."

The monk in blue shirt smiled sarcastically.

In fact, he was just lucky enough to listen to the public teachings of the second-level Talisman Master. To call him a teacher would be to put gold on his face.

The three of them said a few polite words and left angrily.

The stall owners around him cast surprised glances, not daring to look down on Master Guan and his disciples.



Lu Changan chased away the market bully with a few words.

Guan Qiaozhi's bright eyes shone like stars and she couldn't help but ask:

"Senior Brother Lu, do you really have a foundation-building friend from Jinyun Valley?"

Regarding this matter, Mr. Guan was skeptical.

He knew that the three monks in blue shirts were using the tiger's skin as a banner.

Lu Changan is probably the same.

After all, in the world of immortality, background and feet are very important.

In order to get along, low-level monks often like to exaggerate their background.

"I dare to show my token in public, so I can't fake it. After all, Huanglong Immortal City has the headquarters of Jinyun Valley."

The reason why Lu Changan moved out of Jinyun Valley was not just to take care of the grandson of the Guan Dao eldest disciple.

This background relationship is one of the reasons for him to establish himself in Huanglong Immortal City. If others want to pay attention to him, they have to think carefully.

This can filter out a lot of trouble for him.

If there is a background connection, you have to hide it and move it out when you really run into trouble. Maybe you can pretend to be cool and get slapped in the face.

But it is more likely to create a feud and drag Zhao Siyao into the water.

Lu Changan would naturally not do such irrational and immature behavior.

After confirming that Lu Changan was really related to Jinyun Valley's foundation building, Taoist Guan's eyes flickered and he realized that he had underestimated Lu Changan before.

"Master Lu Fu, you helped us solve a problem. Tonight, please come to the humble house for a few drinks."

Taoist priest Guan invited with a smile.

"Okay." Lu Changan thought about Guan Qiaozhi's cooking skills and was interested.



The sun has just set.

Master Guan and his disciples closed the stall and returned to the streets of Jinxiufang with Lu Changan.

Just arrived at the door of Daochang Guan's house.

"Oh, Master Lu Fu actually went to the stall with Mr. Guan. Could it be that he has taken a liking to that little girl?"

Su Yuetong, who was in the other courtyard opposite, giggled and was full of charm.

"Sister Su, here you go again to make fun of me!"

Guan Qiaozhi's face turned red with embarrassment and she subconsciously glanced at Lu Changan.

Lu Changan smiled and shook his head, ignoring it.

The female nun next door who lives alone is not an ordinary idler.

He has no special skills, but dresses brightly and attractively all day long. He often goes to the city to spend a lot of money, buying beautiful robes, beauty elixirs, eating precious spiritual fruits, and occasionally going out to eat spiritual banquets.

This woman seems to have a concubine!

Several times late at night, Lu Changan found a burly man quietly entering Su Yuetong's courtyard and leaving again in the middle of the night.

That burly man was at the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining, and his magic power was much higher than that of the same level.

Lu Changan had no desire to know other people's privacy, but was instinctively wary of Su Yuetong.



Guan Qiaozhi felt embarrassed and ran to the kitchen to cook.

After a while, several delicious dishes were served, and the little girl was still busy.

Taoist priest Guan lamented: "I'm an old man, I can live for more than ten years at most. I don't know who this caring girl will take advantage of in the future."

"Guan Laomo, don't say anything unfavorable. There are many legendary figures in the world of immortality."

Lu Changan did not respond to Guan Qiaozhi's topic.

This made Daochang Guan a little disappointed.

"I would like to propose a toast first and wish Guan Laoxian's road to evergreen."

"I'd like to lend you some good words."

Taoist priest Guan drank a cup, glanced at the kitchen, and then lowered his voice and said:

"Three years ago, Master Du Dan said that he wanted Qiaozhi to work as a maid in his house...I didn't agree!"

Lu Changan was shocked. Taoist Guan said that being a maid was a euphemism, but in fact, he was a concubine!

Three years ago, Guan Qiaozhi was only thirteen years old.

Dewey's words are true, he is indeed a greedy and lustful person.



The two of them mentioned Master Du Dan that night.

The next day, Lu Changan received an invitation from Dewey.

He said that he had taken a beautiful concubine and invited her to the Du Mansion for a wedding banquet in three days.
