The Zhu family of Yanzhou is a Jindan family with a very prosperous domain name of the Yanyang Sect, this clan is a loyal fan of the Yanyang Sect, and the ancestor of the founding mountain in the clan is a disciple of the Yanyang Sect.

In Zhu Wuya's generation, the Zhu family produced its own Jindan monks, which completely established the name of the Jindan family.

Zhu Wuya single-handedly brought the Zhu family into the ranks of the Jindan family, and his cultivation was not only high, but his vision was naturally not bad.

After he heard about the deeds of the "Zhou Tong Tianxia" trading firm, he only found out after a little investigation that this business was definitely profitable.

And once you become the leader of this industry, it will be of great help to improve the reputation of the family and the expansion and improvement of other aspects of the family's business.

The Zhu family is a family heirloom with refining skills, and Zhu Wuya is also a refining master, capable of refining third-order high-grade magic weapons.

If the Zhu family can become the partner of the "Zhoutong Tianxia" commercial bank in the Yanyang Sect region, like the Su family in Jiangzhou, then they can use the couriers of the "Zhoutong Tianxia" commercial bank to reach all parts of Yasukuni to help promote the Zhu family's magic weapons, which will definitely drive the sales of the Zhu family's magic weapons business.

Therefore, after learning that there was no "Zhoutong Tianxia" trading house in the Yanyang Sect region, and after learning that some local immortal cultivators were in contact with the Zhou family, Zhu Wuya immediately decided to go to the Zhou family in person to discuss the matter, so that the Zhu family could become a partner of the "Zhoutong Tianxia" trading house in the Yanyang Sect region.

At this time, after listening to Zhu Wuya's explanation, Zhou Chun immediately replied: "Senior Zhu came to discuss this matter in person, this sincerity moved both the juniors and the Zhou family, and the strength of the Zhu family is indeed very in line with our Zhou family's requirements for collaborators." ”

"But if the 'Zhoutong Tianxia' firm wants to enter the Yanyang Sect region now, I'm afraid there will be some difficulties!"

Hearing this answer, Zhu Wuya's expression did not change in any way, but he just looked at Zhou Chun calmly and asked, "Oh, I don't know what the difficulty of Zhou Xiaoyou is referring to?" ”

"It's a problem of the lack of the number of substitute spirit beasts, our Zhou family can now invest in the 'Zhou Tong Tianxia' commercial bank, and the various substitute spirit beasts have reached the maximum number, and there is no way to add more substitute spirit beasts for delivery in the short term!"

Zhou Chunmian said the difficulties with a difficult face.

In fact, over the years, the number of substitute spirit beasts accumulated by the Zhou family is really not small.

Counting those substitute spirit beasts that were contracted by the Zhou family's monks, the number of various substitute spirit beasts of the Zhou family has exceeded three hundred.

However, the territory of Yasukuni is also very vast, and some large states, such as Yunzhou and Jiangzhou, need to arrange nearly 20 walking spirit beasts to act as foot force.

In addition, the Zhou family also had to leave some substitute spirit beasts for the family monks to use to expand the population.

Now there is indeed no energy left to continue to eat the express delivery industry in the Yanyang Sect region.

"This is a serious problem!"

Zhu Wuya's brows furrowed slightly, and he also felt tricky.

Since he had learned about the situation of the "Zhou Tong Tianxia" trading house, he naturally understood the importance of the spirit animal for this industry.

It can be said that the reason why he came to the Zhou family to cooperate is not only because the Zhou family has already made a name for itself as a "Zhou Tong Tianxia" trading house and has occupied most of the markets in Yasukuni, but another important reason is that only the Zhou family can provide so many spirit animals.

Zhou Chun observed his words and looks, and saw that he didn't seem to have the idea of giving up because of this, so he spoke again: "Actually, if Senior Zhu is really in a hurry, it's not that there is no way to replace him temporarily!" ”

"Oh, can Zhou Xiaoyou elaborate?"

Zhu Wuya's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhou Chun with a look of expectation.

"It's also simple, that is, we pay a high rent ourselves, rent a substitute spirit beast from other families, replace it for a few years, and after a few years, the new demon beast cubs of my Zhou family can grow up and be available, and we can gradually replace those rented substitute spirit beasts."

"The junior has calculated, with the area of the Yanyang Sect's territory, there are probably only seventy substitute spirit beasts, and even if the efficiency of sending the message is reduced, fifty substitute spirit beasts can barely be used!"

"In this way, even if each substitute spirit beast pays a hundred spirit coins per year, it only needs to pay a few thousand spirit coins a year."

"According to the profitability of my Zhou family's 'Zhoutong Tianxia' commercial bank in the past two years, counting the remuneration paid to relevant personnel, in the past few years, we only need to subsidize about three or four thousand spirit coins every year, and we can earn it back later!"

Zhou Chun talked eloquently and told his own method of substitution.

Hearing his answer, Zhu Wuya was overjoyed at first, and then frowned and said, "It's not that this method is impossible, but will other families be willing to rent a substitute spirit beast to us?" ”

"The families of the Yanyang Sect region may not be very willing, but the families of the Qinglian Guan and the Moon Wheel Sect region, they are no longer able to shake the status of the 'Zhoutong Tianxia' trading house in this industry, if we pay a high rent while promising to exempt a part of their respective families' communication fees during the lease period, I think they are still very likely to agree!"

Zhou Chun smiled slightly and expressed his opinion.

No one is going to get along with money.

Renting out a substitute spirit beast can steadily harvest hundreds of spirit coins a year, and you can also get discounts in terms of communication, at least many immortal cultivation families who are only protected by monks in the foundation building period will be willing to do it.

After all, before that, the purchase price of an adult first-order ink-scaled horse would not exceed a thousand spirit coins.

However, the lifespan of an ink-scaled foal can be as long as sixty or seventy years.

If it weren't for the large-scale purchase of this kind of substitute spirit beast, it was very unrealistic, no one would be able to provide so much inventory, and the Zhou family would only need a few years to recover, Zhou Chun was ready to simply spend 100,000 yuan to buy hundreds of such substitute spirit beasts.

After all, Zhu Wuya was a Jindan period monk, and after thinking about it, he understood what Zhou Chun meant, and immediately nodded without delay: "Okay, if that's the case, then it's no problem, about renting a substitute spirit animal, please ask the Zhou family, my Zhu family is willing to pay the relevant rent according to the corresponding share!" ”

"With the words of Senior Zhu, the younger generation will be relieved."

Zhou Chun smiled, and immediately discussed the relevant division with Zhu Wuya while the iron was hot.

After some bargaining, the two families still proceeded according to the cooperation model of the Zhou family and the Su family, with the Zhou family accounting for sixty percent and the Zhu family accounting for forty percent.

However, because the Zhu family took the initiative to come to the door to ask for cooperation, the concessions made in some aspects were naturally greater than those of the Su family, just like the rent of the spirit beast in the early stage, they had to make a big head, and at the same time, in terms of the remuneration of the corresponding staff, they also had to bear more in the early stage.

After such a general direction was negotiated, Zhu Wuya couldn't help but look at Zhou Chun and sighed sincerely: "I didn't expect Zhou Xiaoyou not only to have outstanding cultivation talent, but also to be even more surprising in his ability to run a family, it is really enviable that the Zhou family can have a patriarch like Zhou Xiaoyou!" ”

"Zhu's predecessors have a good reputation, it should be said that it is the luck of the younger generations to be able to be born in the Zhou family."

Zhou Chun replied modestly, and his words were extremely beautiful.

Seeing this, Zhu Wuya couldn't help but shake his head again and again, and could only sigh in his heart why he didn't have such an outstanding junior.

Then he groaned slightly, and then spoke again: "The old man has nothing else to do except for this body cultivation, and he knows a little bit about refining techniques, if Zhou Xiaoyou has any refining needs in the future, he can go to the Zhu family to find the old man, and the old man can make a free shot for Xiaoyou, which will be counted as a reward for Xiaoyou to promise to cooperate with my Zhu family!" ”

He originally wanted to leave a good fate when he said this, but after Zhou Chun heard what he said, his expression moved, and he immediately patted the storage bag on his waist and took out a black turtle shell.

"How about a look at this material, senior? Can it be refined into a third-order high-grade magic weapon? ”

Seeing this, Zhu Wuya was also slightly stunned, and then reached out to take the turtle shell and looked at it.

After a moment passed like this, Zhu Wuya looked at Zhou Chun with a face full of surprise and said: "Zhou Xiaoyou is really a good skill, if the old man is not mistaken, this thing should be the turtle shell of the third-order high-grade demon beast Xuan Tortoise, look at the innate scales on it, maybe this demon also has the blood of the dragon, such a powerful demon beast, even if the Jindan period monk personally took action, it is difficult to take off its turtle shell so completely, let alone reach such a complete level!" ”

Zhou Chun didn't answer his words, and didn't have any intention of explaining the origin of the thing, but said with a smile: "Senior Zhu admires this thing so much, it seems that there should be no problem." ”

"What's more, it's no problem, with the quality of this thing, plus the old man personally took action, the third-order high-grade magic weapon is definitely no problem, if it can be integrated into some magic weapon spirit materials when refining, it is more likely to make this treasure gain the power to resist the attack of the magic weapon!"

When Zhu Wuya said this, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and continued with some regret: "It's a pity that this thing is not the spiritual material on the fourth-order demon beast after all, otherwise the old man might try to refine it into a magic weapon!" ”

For him, who was already a refining master, impacting the realm of the refining master was more important than breaking through his own cultivation.

After all, with his current age and cultivation, there is no possibility of getting married at all.

But if he can be promoted to a refining master, his status will surpass that of most Jindan stage cultivators.

I didn't want Zhou Chun to listen to his words, but he suddenly said: "The junior of the magic weapon spirit material happens to have a piece of 'Black Abyss Sinking Iron' in his hand, Senior Zhu, do you think this thing can be compatible with this turtle shell?" ”

"What? You still have a piece of 'Black Abyss Sinking Iron' in your hand! ”

Zhu Wuya looked at Zhou Chun with a surprised expression, but he didn't expect that his casual exclamation would really become a reality.

I saw that he looked at Zhou Chun with a strange look in his eyes before he nodded and said: "Of course, the 'Black Abyss Sinking Iron' itself is known for its hardness, and it also has excellent law-resistant properties, if you can add some 'Black Abyss Sinking Iron' to this magic weapon, both the hardness of the magic weapon itself and the defensive ability will be greatly improved!" ”

"Then senior, see for yourself how much you need to use!"

Zhou Chun said, and took out the "Black Abyss Sinking Iron" with the size of a grinding disc in his storage bag.

Such a big piece of "black abyss sinking iron"!

Looking at the black ore that Zhou Chun took out, Zhu Wuya was shocked again.

Then his eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Zhou Chun with a fiery gaze and said: "The magic weapon needed to refine Zhou Xiaoyou is probably only one-third of this 'Black Abyss Sinking Iron', can Zhou Xiaoyou sell the rest to the old man?" The old man is willing to buy it at a high price! ”

For a refining master like him, there is never too much magic weapon spiritual material.

If you can successfully refine the magic weapon, no matter how much the magic weapon spiritual materials are lost, it is worth it!

Since Zhou Chun took out the "Black Abyss Shen Tie", he was prepared for this, and quickly said with a favor: "The juniors and the Zhou family can't use this thing now, since the seniors Zhu want it, the juniors have nothing to do." ”

"Okay, Zhou Xiaoyou is refreshing!"

Zhu Wuya's face was overjoyed, and when he agreed with Zhou Chun on the time to take the magic weapon, he returned to the Zhu family with two treasures first.

Even if it was a refining master like him, if he wanted to refine a third-order high-grade magic weapon, it was not something that could be done in a few days, and he had to think about it carefully.

Therefore, he asked Zhou Chun to wait for the news first, and after the magic weapon was refined, he would notify Zhou Chun to go over and get it.

And Zhou Chun was naturally not afraid that his dignified Jindan period monk would repay his debts in this regard.

Next, Zhou Chun personally got busy with the matter of renting spirit beasts from other families.

In fact, this thing is not difficult for the Zhou family to do.

Because over the years, many families have also purchased octagonal deer from the Zhou family.

Now that the Zhou family wants to rent their family's substitute spirit beast, the price given is quite good, even if they can buy high-quality spirit beasts from the Zhou family in the future, they will not completely lose face.

In less than half a year, Zhou Chun rented eighty substitute spirit beasts.

As soon as the spirit beast was rented on his side, the Zhu family immediately arranged the couriers who had been recruited, and opened a branch of the "Zhoutong World" commercial bank in the Yanyang Sect region.

On this day, Zhou Chun received a message from Zhu Wuya and asked him to go to Zhu's house to get the treasure.

After receiving the news, Zhou Chun immediately rushed to the Zhujiashan Gate in Yanzhou.

In a cave somewhere in the Zhujia Mountain Gate, Zhou Chun saw Zhu Wuya, who had already finished refining.

And when the other party saw him coming, he didn't talk nonsense at all, and directly patted the storage bag on his waist and took out the magic weapon.

I saw that this magic weapon still looked no different from the original turtle shell, except that there was an extra layer of iron in the shape of dragon scales on the surface of the turtle shell, and these iron pieces were completely embedded in the turtle shell and fused with it, just like it originally grew inside the turtle shell.

At the same time, mysterious and complex spirit patterns and refining runes were imprinted on the surface of those dragon scales, as well as the inside of the turtle shell.

Zhu Wuya saw that Zhou Chun's eyes were attracted by this magic weapon, and he immediately shot out a mana and fell into it, stimulating the power of the magic weapon.

Under the urging of the mana of the Jindan period monk, the turtle shell magic weapon, which was originally more than one zhang long, instantly changed to a size of three zhang, and then quickly shrank to a level worthy of three feet.

Then Zhu Wuya urged with more mana, and a black aura rose from the turtle shell magic weapon, quickly condensing into a black light curtain shield to protect him in it.

At this time, he said to Zhou Chun: "Zhou Xiaoyou, please look, this is the third-order high-grade magic weapon [Black Water Xuangui Shield] that the old man spent half a year conceiving and refining!" ”

"This thing is made of the turtle shell of the third-order high-grade turtle demon and the 'Black Abyss Sinking Iron' as the material, it can be large or small, and its body is so hard that it cannot be damaged by illegal treasures!"

"In addition, this thing also has two major defensive capabilities, one is the 'Black Water Xuanguang' attached to itself, which can form a defensive light curtain that is stronger than the third-order high-grade defensive spells, and the second is the 'Shadow of the Turtle', which can summon the figure of the Turtle to guard, and can block the magic weapon of the ordinary Jindan early stage monk envoy!"

"However, Zhou Xiaoyou, you should pay attention to the fact that the 'Shadow of the Turtle' has a lot of load on this magic weapon itself, and it may cause the destruction of the magic weapon if it is used many times in a short period of time, so it is better not to use it unless you have to!"
