Chapter 59 Return to Xihefang
As the elder of the family, you don't need to take on the chores of the family in the future, but there are a lot of complicated things to deal with, and you may not be able to have more free time.
Zhang Zhixuan took over the affairs of Jiubo Zhang Mengquan.
His task, in addition to alchemy for the family, is also responsible for the business in the fang market and the spiritual field under the mountain.
These two incomes are almost the family's biggest source of wealth now, and they control the family's largest income.
Giving this matter to Zhang Zhixuan is enough to represent the family's attention to him.
Since the accident in Xihefang that year, Zhang Zhixuan has not been to Xihefang again.
Because the Hu family has gone through Hu Peiyu's relationship, with the support of Qingxuanzong, his family has accounted for half of the income of Xihefang City.
Such a fact made the five major families of Taicheng County very dissatisfied, but they were helpless.
There are a number of spiritual veins in Taicheng County, and after leaving Xihefang, where can everyone open Fang City?
So under the leadership of the Wu family, the five nearby families began to isolate the Hu family, did not communicate with them, and did not go to his house to do business.
They even mobilized the weak families of the vassals to try their best to block the Hu family and make it difficult for them to continue.
It's a pity that the old fox of the Hu family is also quite good, and he constantly cedes some interests to fight a price war to win over the local scattered cultivators and small families.
In this way, they came and sold all kinds of immortal cultivation resources to and from the lower level, and in recent years, they have promoted the prosperity of Xihefang.
After serving as the elder of the family, Zhang Zhixuan first went to Lingtian to take a look.
Yellow sprouts were planted in the spiritual field, and it was still three years before it matured.
The most precious dozens of beads of spirit grass are still the same, this kind of more precious spirit grass, it takes dozens of hundreds of years to harvest, only after years of continuous investment, can we wait for the day of harvest.
Only the families above the foundation will open up this kind of medicine garden if their basic strength has been relatively stable. In general, small families in the Qi training period, even if there are a few acres of spiritual land in the family, most of them are planted with some spiritual rice.
After all, these small families are constantly twisting and turning, maybe the cultivated elixir has not yet matured, and the family will decay, and it will even cause the greed of others, leading to the disaster of extinction.
After reading Lingtian, Zhang Zhixuan immediately went to Xihefang again.
For Xihefang, Zhang Zhixuan also has a bit of an indescribable shadow in his heart.
The scene of that day still lingered in Zhang Zhixuan's mind, in just one or two days, the monks of the family in Fang City suffered heavy casualties, and only four of the thirteen clansmen survived safely.
Zhang Mengquan, the ninth uncle, who took great care of him, his voice and smile were like frames of pictures, and they still appeared in Zhang Zhixuan's heart.
It's a pity that after saying goodbye in Xihefang, I couldn't see each other again before I had time to say a few words of goodbye.
There was a fierce battle in the market, as if it was still yesterday.
Even after six years, Zhang Zhixuan can still recall the embarrassment of fleeing from the wilderness, the fear when he was chased and killed, and the joy after surviving.
went to Xihefang City again, and Zhang Zhixuan suddenly had a feeling that things were wrong.
In a big battle that year, most of the shops in Fang City were destroyed, and even the formation stationed in Fang City was completely destroyed by Wei Mazi and others.
After the Hu family took control of Fang City, they renovated the dilapidated houses and arranged a new defensive formation.
Today's Xihefang has a sense of unrecognition in Zhang Zhixuan's eyes.
Before the Xihefang Rebellion, the Zhang family had a total of eight shops.
After the Hu family took control of Fang City, they obtained half of the ownership of Xihefang, and there were only four shops left in the family.
It happened that the family had been short of manpower, so they simply gave up a few shops rented out to the Hu family.
The remaining four stores are connected together, and the shelves inside are also incomplete.
In the past two years, because Zhang Zhixuan went to the Southern Wilderness, the family has not trained a second alchemist, and there is no elixir business, so of course the business in the market is worse.
Zhang Zhixuan suppressed the feelings in his heart and quickly entered the Baicao Xuan.
Baicaoxuan's current elder is the seventeenth uncle Zhang Mengyao, who has not seen each other for a few years, and the seventeenth uncle's cultivation is still at the sixth level of qi training, which is far inferior to Zhang Zhixuan.
Because Fang City is far away from the family, Uncle Seventeen has not returned to Shanmen recently.
In addition, there were many monks near Fang City, and it was not suitable to send a transmission spirit rune, so as not to be intercepted by other monks, so he did not know that Zhang Zhixuan had become an elder of the family.
Seeing Zhang Zhixuan come in, Uncle Seventeen's face was overjoyed, and he said happily: "I haven't seen you for a few years, Zhixuan's cultivation is even higher and unfathomable."
I heard that you left your family to travel, when did you come back? ”
"It's been less than a month since I came back, Uncle Seventeen, how is the business of these shops in Fang Market lately?" Zhang Zhixuan asked.
"It's still like this!
After Brother Jiu left, the business in Baicaoxuan was not as good as day by day.
Fortunately, in recent years, the patriarch's injuries have improved a bit, and every three months, he has to draw a few second-order high-grade spirit runes, barely able to exchange a little spirit stone.
In addition, Sister Meng Qin can refine one or two second-order high-grade magic weapons every year and send them over, if it arrives on that day, the store may still be a little lively. ”
"Everything will get better." Zhang Zhixuan comforted.
"What a bird!
The best thing to sell in the market is still the elixir, and the family has no alchemist, and the shops in the market are like this, and they can only raise a few idlers.
If you don't come back, Baicaoxuan will be closed. Zhang Mengyao shook his head, looking disdainful.
In the voice of his words, he complained a little about Zhang Zhixuan going out to travel, and disliked him for not doing his job properly, and he didn't stay at home to make alchemy for Baicaoxuan.
Except for a few people in the family, the news that Zhang Zhixuan went to Nanhuang to take revenge has always been hidden from the outside world.
lest the news leak be detected by the Wu family and bring danger to Zhang Zhixuan.
Therefore, a monk like Uncle Seventeen, who is not an elder of the family, doesn't know where Zhang Zhixuan has gone.
Regarding Uncle Seventeen's complaints, Zhang Zhixuan smiled disapprovingly, and did not explain: "Aren't I coming back, Baicaoxuan won't be closed." ”
"Now that you're back, I'll go and tell the patriarch that I'll hand over the errands in the Fang City to you in three years, so that I can also be a little easier.
When I return to Lushan, I will prepare to retreat for a period of time, which will be used to break through the realm of the late stage of Qi cultivation. Zhang Mengyao said happily.
Zhang Zhixuan took out the elder token, shook it in front of the seventeenth uncle and said, "I have become an elder of the family, and I don't have to do miscellaneous labor in the future."
I'm just going to be free for a while, so I'll take your place for a while.
Now that you've reached the brink of breaking through, it's better to seize the time to break through the realm.
After all, the most important thing for a monk to practice is to cultivate to the realm. ”
Seeing Zhang Zhixuan take out the Elder Token, Uncle Seventeen Zhang Mengyao was shocked and said in disbelief: "Zhixuan!
You came down at the age of sixteen, and it's only been seven years since then.
You are only twenty-three years old this year, and your cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi cultivation, and you can be regarded as a great avenue in the future. ”
Zhang Zhixuan said modestly: "Uncle Seventeen has won the award, and I can't say what will happen in the future, without Building the Foundation Dan, I may not be able to successfully build the foundation, and I must always break through the one-thirtieth probability."
If you succeed, you will naturally be happy, and if you fail, I will have this chance. ”
