In late September, at the foot of Yuyan Mountain, three people left their families and headed east.

They will pass through Anling City, board a flying boat, and continue eastward to Donghai City. Then turn north from the East China Sea, cross a sea area in a straight line, and reach Liao County.

Lu Xueting, Lu Ranting, and Lu Mingling traveled together, and they went to propose marriage to Wen En.

The marriage of Lu Wenen and Gongsun Que should also be put on the agenda.

Ran Ting is Wen En's grandmother, and she should go now, Xue Ting and Ran Ting are sisters, if there is a foundation building monk in charge, it will also show the importance of the family.

As for Lu Mingling, who went with him, it was one thing to go with him to propose marriage, and he also had an important job, which was to discuss with the Gongsun clan and expand business and trade.

The Lu family has developed rapidly in the past two years, and they are now not only responsible for the sales of the family's own output, but other allied families in Anling County have also been drawn into the chamber of commerce. Some of their products and specialties will gradually be handed over to them for sale.

This is also the result of Lu Mingling's talk. It's just that this matter has not been completely determined, and the trust of other families in the Lu family is still relatively limited. And Lu Mingling hopes that through this exchange with the Gongsun family, the north-south trade route can be opened, so that the goods can be sold better, and it will also be of great help to the prestige of the Lu family.

Ordinary small families do not have the ability to sell their output to Selangor in the north. They usually had to rely on the Husheng Comptoir to sell their goods.

And now, it is definitely better to be able to pass through Lu's firm. In the past, Husheng Commercial Bank was quite a monopoly business, and the oil and water pumped in the middle, the purchase price or something, were relatively dead. In this regard, Lu's firm will give a much more favorable price.

Ming Ling took advantage of the marriage proposal, and the negotiations with the Gongsun clan went smoothly. The Lu family shipped the goods, and the Gongsun family could directly eat the next batch, and the Lu family was also allowed to do business in Liao County - of course, this also had to cooperate with the Gongsun family, and everyone had money to earn together.

During the Lu family's trip to northern Xinjiang, several goals were accomplished.

The wedding will be held on the Yuyan Mountain in two years, and some people from the Gongsun clan will come at that time. As a result, the two companies reached an agreement to expand business cooperation, and the relationship between the two allies became more reliable.

Even, to a certain extent, this time the exchange between the two families has become very equal.

Of course, the size of the Gongsun clan is still much stronger than that of the Lu family, and after the battle that caused a great injury to the vitality of the white ghost southbound, they can be regarded as relieved now. Although there were still no Jindan monks in the Gongsun clan, the number of Qiming monks increased to as many as eight, and the number of monks in the foundation building period was thirty. There are more than 1,000 monks in total, and there are many affiliated families, and if they are mobilized for war with all their might, they can mobilize more than 5,000 monks.

But the Lu family has Jin Dan, and it's hard to think that it will be two in two years.

It makes up for everything.

......

Two years later, the marriage of Lu Wenen and Gongsun Que was officially held.

And after the wedding of the two of them, the Lu family and the people of the Gongsun family ran a trade route in Liao County together.

The distance between the two places was too far, and it was necessary to coordinate the flying boat used by the trading house - this was provided by the Gongsun family, and it was not only for their use, but during the passage twice a year, a part of the warehouse was given to the Lu trading house.

Otherwise, with the current economic strength of the Lu family, it is still a little difficult to get a large flying boat that specializes in north-south transportation, and that thing is very expensive.

The preliminary preparations for trade were completed in the past two years, and after Wen En's marriage, Ming Ling also tried to run away.

No problem.

After returning to his family, he suddenly received a message - Lu Xinting, who was operating for a caravan in Changhong County, was attacked.

The enemy was so strong that she knocked her team down almost instantly. She herself is a person who cultivates Qi at the seventh level, and the other five loose cultivators in the team also have the strength of above the middle stage of Qi training. was wiped out by others in an instant, and it was obvious that the person who shot was above the level of Zhuji.

But the attackers did not kill anyone, and even after defeating them, they didn't even rob the goods, but just left a letter for Lu Xinting to pass on to their Lu family's principal.

After returning, Xinting gave the letter to his nephew Ming Ling. Although the seniority is higher, according to the rules and regulations of the family, Ming Ling is the person in charge of the family chamber of commerce and the boss of the heart court.

After getting the letter, Lu Mingling found out that it was a warning letter.

At this moment, the family also held a corresponding meeting on this, and Lu Chaoxi, the patriarch, was shocked.

Faced with the inquiry, Lu Mingling said: "I guess it's Husheng Commercial Bank. ”

Although the warning letter was not signed, Ming Ling still guessed.

He further explained: "Actually, it's not the first time. The last time I went to Donghai County to prepare for the trade route, I faintly encountered some resistance, and a steward of Husheng Commercial Bank specially told me these things to persuade our Lu family not to do cross-continent business, it is easy to lose money. ”

Husheng Commercial Bank, the Lu family once did business with them, and the relationship was not bad.

However, this time, Lu's firm wanted to open a north-south trade route, which really stepped on the cat's tail.

There are two major trading houses in Feiyun State, Feiyun Commercial Bank mainly does local business and also does trade to the south, and Husheng Commercial Bank, which ranks second, mainly does business between Feiyun and Selangor.

The Lu family wanted to build a trade route to Liao County by themselves, which was obviously robbing them of business.

"Hehe......" Lu Chaoxi laughed twice, and then said to Ming Ling, "The ancestor of the family still attaches great importance to the development of business routes, you still have to continue to do it well." Husheng Firm, I'll solve it. ”

I wanted to ask how to solve it, but after hesitating, Lu Mingling still didn't ask.

The patriarch has his own way.

He went back to continue to prepare for trade between the north and the south, and also made some compensation to the heart court that had been beaten.

And Lu Chaoxi, a few days later, set off for Qingfeng Gate.

He had planned to go there in the near future. This is also the norm, every once in a while, he will go to Qingfeng Gate to stay for a while, and live directly in Li Yanling's cave mansion. The cultivation efficiency of the fifth-order spiritual veins is quite good. Even, as the guest elder of the sect, he also undertook a task last year, and took the three foundation building monks of the Qingfeng Sect to deal with the haunting of a small family in Guangyang County, which can be regarded as having worked for the sect.

The reason for this...... The newlyweds, not long after they got married, they separated from Li Yanling. Li Yanling wants to return to the sect to cultivate hard, and strive to enter the Jindan period as soon as possible.

Since Li Yanling is not good at running around, he can only work harder.

And this time, he was going to stay for half a year.

Li Yanling is not surprised, this year should start to try to make a breakthrough in the Jindan period. As a husband, he should be on the side at such times.

By the way, something happened to the family business house that was warned, and he also went to solve it by the way.
