Chapter 266: Chapter 131: Advanced Draw, Heavenly Spiritual Treasure!_1
Ten days later.
Red Leaf Valley Market.
After its reconstruction into a marketplace, Red Leaf Valley still cultivated its mountains of red leaves and spiritual fields.
Because the market had just opened, it was quite desolate.
There were only people from the four major families and a few other forces.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge strolled through the market, familiarizing themselves with the situation.
Although the mountains were still covered with red leaves, the interior layout had been reorganized, completely different from its original appearance.
The planned layout bore some resemblance to the Nine Dragons Market.
It was divided into four areas: east, west, south, and north, designated for residential and commercial use, respectively.
Shops used by the major families were basically located in the best spots within the commercial area.
The location of Lu Changshengâs shop wasnât great, but it wasnât bad either.
On the commercial street.
When purchasing the shop from Hong Yi, Lu Changsheng had also become aware of its price.
It was worth roughly three thousand spirit stones.
In a few years, maybe even a few decades, once the marketâs foot traffic increased, its value could potentially rise substantially.
As for Hong Yiâs shop, its location was quite ordinary.
It was situated on a rather secluded street.
One reason was that only shops at this level were still available for external sale.
Another was that the Ruyi Marquis Mansion had limited financial resources.
They could at most bring out eighteen hundred spirit stones.
While wandering with Lu Miaoge, Lu Changsheng received a transmission from Gao He.
âSister Miaoge, I have something to take care of, I need to go over there,â Lu Changsheng said to Lu Miaoge.
âMhm, go ahead.â Lu Miaoge replied, her white dress and gentle demeanor giving her an air of serenity.
Suddenly, Lu Changsheng went to meet Gao He at the market entrance and brought him to his own shop.
This shop wasnât big, barely two hundred square meters in size, with a three-story structure.
âBrother Gao, this shop will be in your care from now on,â Lu Changsheng said to Gao He.
âFor now, I can supply three supreme talismans and some superior grade talismans every month⊠As for stock and inventoryâŠâ
Lu Changsheng explained the shopâs essentials to Gao He.
Having spent many years in the Nine Dragons Market, his experiences hadnât been in vain.
He was quite familiar with the operations of a spirit talisman shop.
âBrother Lu, this shop isnât owned by the Lu Family, itâs yours?â Gao He asked in astonishment after hearing Lu Changshengâs words.
He had originally thought that Lu Changsheng invited him to Red Leaf Valley Market to act as the resident talisman master on behalf of the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain.
To his surprise, Lu Changsheng had opened his own shop.
This left him both astonished and envious.
Many loose cultivators spend their entire lives in the Cultivation World and still may not be able to afford a residence in a marketplace.
Most can only choose to return to the secular world to settle down.
Even for him, an advanced-level talisman master, buying property in a larger market wasnât easy.
A shop like Lu Changshengâs could support three generations if Red Leaf Market didnât run into trouble, and that wasnât an exaggeration.
âHeh, thatâs right, the Lu Family also has a shop here,â Lu Changsheng chuckled.
âHowever, this shop isnât owned by the Luâs, itâs my personal business. Therefore, I wonât have much time to manage it, which is why I requested your assistance,â he continued, not hiding the truth.
He planned to spend his time cultivating in Qingzhu Mountain like the Fourth Elder, accompanying his wife and children.
After completing the talisman-making tasks for the Lu Family each month and supplying the Spiritual Talisman Shop, he would come to check on the shop and see Lu Miaoge.
âAlright, rest assured, boss,â Gao He said without further questions, giving a respectful bow.
After taking a look at the shop and glancing at Lu Changsheng, he added, âBut this shop needs a name. Why donât you choose one, boss?â
âSince it sells talismans, letâs just call it âPeace Talisman Hall,ââ Lu Changsheng suggested after some thought, coming up with a rather uninspired name.
Gao Heâs mouth twitched slightly.
Such shop names were basically cliché.
But thatâs how it was for most shops, except for some major families and powers.
They could only build a reputation by slowly accumulating good reviews and growing the business.
Subsequently, Gao He discussed the initial preparations for the Spirit Talisman Shop with Lu Changsheng.
Having been briefed on this by Lu Changsheng, he had made ready preparations.
Lu Changsheng knew that Gao He had put in the effort when he heard this.
He had even thought that if it didnât work out, he could ask the Lu Family for support.
After all, it would be foolish not to use resources that were readily available.
Suddenly, Lu Changsheng also discussed the Second-Order Cave Mansion with Gao He.
He had seen the mansion; it wasnât big, just one hundred square meters.
But for rent, it could fetch eighty to ninety spirit stones a year.
Once the foot traffic increased, he estimated it could be rented out for a hundred spirit stones.
Lu Changsheng then rented it to Gao He for a base price of eighty spirit stones per year.
âThank you, boss,â Gao He gratefully accepted the offer.
He planned to clear a path in the Nine Dragons Market and, at the same time, bring over his daughter, Gao Xiaoya.
After chatting for a while, Lu Changsheng left and went to the Lu Familyâs Spiritual Talisman Shop.
SŃarch* The novŃlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
This shopâs layout and decorations were similar to those in the Nine Dragons Marketâs Lu Family Spiritual Talisman Shop, only larger.
âChangsheng, youâve finished your business?â Lu Miaoge came forward as soon as she knew Lu Changsheng had arrived.
Apart from being at home, she still maintained a sense of grace and inaccessibility when outside.
âYes, Iâve finished,â Lu Changsheng said, nodding with a smile.
He shared the details of his discussion with Gao He with Lu Miaoge.
This is what being husband and wife was like.
It wasnât every day that there were fresh and interesting stories to share.
Often, much of the time was spent talking about the little things happening around them.
âŠ
The night deepened.
Red Leaf Valley was already quiet, now enveloped in silence.
Apart from the guards tasked with patrolling, most had entered the realm of dreams.
On the third floor of the Lu Familyâs Spiritual Talisman Shop.
Inside the simple bedroom, the bedâs curtains hung down.
The candlelight flickered gently, as if a full moon had sunk into the water, waves gently lapping!
After the deed!
âSister Miaoge, how long do you need to break through to the ninth level of Energy Refinement?â
