Chapter 194 – 156 Luoyun Pavilion_2

Although the site was a mess, the facilities inside were essentially intact; they just needed to be cleaned and reorganized before they could be used again.

It took the two of them half an hour to go through the entire Lingxiao Tower from top to bottom before finally returning to the main hall.

The location of Lingxiao Tower was close to the market square, an excellent spot, and the interior space was not small at all, with the trading hall alone being over ten zhang in length and width, and having a storeroom, reception room, and rest area, all complete with various enchantments and formations.

It wouldn’t be long before they could open for business. Lin Shilu nodded, very satisfied with this.

“Tian Ming, gather Tianfeng and the others, let’s all get together and discuss the next step of the plan,” Lin Shilu instructed.

“Alright, I’ll send them a message right now!” Lin Tianming replied, and with a single-handed seal, sent out a message.

Toward evening, within the Cave Mansion Courtyard of the North District.

Lin Tianming and his clan members gathered together, and Lin Shilu, with a smile on his face, addressed them:

“With the shop’s affairs settled, you can all breathe a sigh of relief. However, should we change the name of Lingxiao Tower? What are your thoughts on this?”

After a moment of contemplation, Lin Tianming said:

“Tian Ming suggests we change it. After all, Lingxiao Tower was a name chosen by the Gao Family, and since the Lin Family has taken over the shop, it’s as if a new dynasty has begun—it’s only natural we change the name.”

Lin Tianfeng and the others nodded in agreement, indicating their approval of Lin Tianming’s statement.

“Since everyone feels this way, let’s come up with a name and decide on it quickly,” Lin Shilu said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming and the others began to contemplate.

After more than ten breaths of time passed, Lin Tianfeng was the first to suggest a name, which was quickly rejected by everyone else.

Then Lin Tianming said:

“The Lin Family hails from the Luoyun Mountain Range, so why not call it Luoyun Pavilion?”

“That’s a good one…” Lin Tianhong was the first to speak up in agreement.

Lin Shilu didn’t really care. The Lin Family’s shop in Luoyun Market had been called Hundred Treasures Building for hundreds of years without a name change. He also felt that the name Hundred Treasures Building was too ordinary, but it had been chosen by his ancestors, and he didn’t feel it was right to change it.

Now that there was this opportunity to open a new shop, naturally, a name that was elegant and meaningful was desired.

“Not bad, I have no objections!” Lin Shilu said. Discover more stories at Novgo

“We have no objections either!” Lin Xingli and the others also spoke up in agreement.

With the shop name decided, Lin Shilu began to inquire about everyone’s opinions regarding the opening of the shop.

Lin Xingli, having dealt with the Hundred Treasures Building’s transactions in Luoyun Market many times, had quite a bit to contribute on the matter.

Lin Tianming also expressed:

“On the opening day, it certainly needs to be grand. I suggest that all treasures be sold at a ten percent discount for one month. In just half a month, the market assembly will be upon us. If nothing unexpected happens, the number of people in the market will increase several fold. We can take this opportunity to make a name for Luoyun Pavilion!”

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xingli voiced his objection.

“Tian Ming, won’t one month be too long? If business is too good, think how many spirit stones we will lose out on!”

Lin Tianfeng and the others also seemed reluctant but did not state their position.

After some thought, Lin Tianming then proposed a compromise.

“Well then, let’s take a step back. Only elixirs will be sold at a ten percent discount for one month; all other treasures will be sold at normal price. This way, the loss will be much smaller!”

Seeing that Lin Xingli did not hold any further objections, Lin Tianming continued:

“Do not mind the small profit for now; we have a long way ahead of us. Luoyun Pavilion is just starting out; how can we compete with those shops that have been open for over a hundred years?”

“This…” Lin Xingli hesitated for a moment.

Lin Shilu nodded, obviously agreeing with Lin Tianming’s view.

Lin Tianming chuckled and added:

“Besides, we can offer Alchemy services, limited to First Order Elixirs only and without charging any fees, using a thirty percent success rate as the baseline; any extra produced will belong to us. This will be a great opportunity for Tianhong and me to practice our alchemy skills while earning spirit stones!”

Hearing Lin Tianming’s idea, Lin Shilu’s eyes lit up, and he silently thought:

If they took advantage of Lin Tianming’s terrifying rate of successful elixir creation, they could certainly profit greatly while also building Luoyun Pavilion’s reputation.

Besides, since Lin Tianhong was currently a First-Order Medium Grade Alchemist, if he had a large supply of Spiritual Medicine Materials to practice with, it was imaginable that his alchemy skills would quickly advance, and he could possibly break through to a First-Order Superior Grade Alchemist within a year or two.

Considering these points, Lin Shilu spoke seriously:

“Let’s proceed with the suggestions as Tian Ming said. Xing Li will be responsible for the shop’s early affairs while Tianfeng will handle the promotions. Go ahead!”

“Yes!”

Lin Xingli and Lin Tianfeng bowed and took their leave, before getting up to pay their respects to Lin Shilu and then departing.

…

Before they knew it, ten days had passed and today was the grand opening of Luoyun Pavilion.

Early in the morning, Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu had already left the Cave Mansion Courtyard and were heading towards Luoyun Pavilion.

Over these days, Lin Tianfeng and others were active in every corner of the market, spreading the news of Luoyun Pavilion’s opening.

Lin Tianming hadn’t been idle either; he helped out at Luoyun Pavilion during the day and returned to the Cave Mansion at night to meditate and cultivate, leading a leisurely yet fulfilling life.

Walking down the street, a large number of cultivators were heading in the same direction toward Luoyun Pavilion.

As the day for the market assembly drew nearer, the vibrancy in the market had significantly increased.

In less than half an hour, the two reached the entrance of Luoyun Pavilion.

At that moment, Lin Tianfeng and Lin Tianhong were preparing to hang a large signboard above the gatehouse.

In no time, the large signboard was appropriately hung above the gatehouse.
