Chapter 52 – Hosting a Trade Fair (Seeking Catch-up Readings)
White Jade Market, was the second largest market of the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan after that Thousand Willows Market.
Now that the Thousand Willows Market has suffered a severe blow, the Shen Clan has shifted most of its industrial center of gravity to the White Jade Market.
It can be said that the current White Jade Market is already the largest market under the jurisdiction of the entire Shen Clan.
Every year, it can provide the Shen Clan with at least 100,000 spirit stones or more.
At this moment, within a building called the White Jade Palace in the White Jade Square Market.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were flipping through the dossier on the recent situation of the White Jade Market while listening to the reports of several people present.
This was the third day that they had come to this White Jade Market.
It had to be said that there were still a lot of things involved in a workshop market.
These included maintaining the security of the market, enforcing the system of the market, prying out news from all directions in the market, and establishing connections with the markets under the jurisdiction of other Purple Mansion forces.
If all of these things were to be done by Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan themselves, then they wouldn’t have to do anything else, where would they have time to cultivate and improve themselves if they were surrounded by these trivialities all day long?
Therefore, before coming, they had already thought about it.
There was no need for it, they only needed to grasp the big picture of the workshop and grasp a few of the most crucial points.
As for the rest of those things, they could just leave them to the people below.
After all, in this Immortal Cultivation World where greatness was attributed to oneself, there was nothing that was more important than one’s own strength.
At this moment, the couple had already finished listening to the reports of the several people present.
Then they saw Shen Ruyan rushing one of them, a seventy year old man named Shen Bohong, and said:
“Elder Hong, in the future, the matters of this workshop market, still need you and a few stewards to take more care, if not necessary, my husband and I will not casually interfere in the things of the workshop market.
Alright, if there’s nothing special in the following, then that’s it for now.”
“Elder Ruyan you are too kind, these are all things we should do.”
Shen Bohong and the few people present nodded with a straight face.
Then he saw a middle-aged woman named Shen Feiyan say, “Reporting to the two Elders, three days from now, it will be the large-scale trade fair hosted by my White Jade Mall, and in this matter, I’m afraid that at that time, I’m afraid that we still need the two Elders to come out and host it.”
“Uh-huh.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan both nodded.
Only to hear Shen Ruyan say, “We know about this matter, and when the time comes, we will step in and take charge of hosting it.”
“Yes!”
When Shen Bohong and Shen Feiyan several people heard this, they didn’t stay any longer and bowed to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, then immediately retreated.
Looking at a few people leaving, Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Jiang Chengxuan and laugh:
“Husband, three days later, you and I will go together to be in charge of hosting that trade fair.
At that time, we can also see if there are things that you and I need to exchange.
Especially that Tian Yuan Dan that can help you break through the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, while the Demon Beast Rebellion has not yet arrived, you and I should both improve our strength as soon as possible.”
As he spoke, the two of them had each packed up the things on the table and case in front of them and walked into the cultivation quiet room.
At the same time.
Xiong Wandao, Shen Changnian, Shen Daofeng, and Shen Baifei had already followed their old ancestor Shen Yuanlong to the Qianyang Sect.
Having just arrived at the Qianyang Sect, they met Shen Mengxue who had come to greet them.
Shen Mengxue still had a head of white hair.
However, Shen Yuanlong was keenly aware that his sister’s body vaguely seemed to have an extra trace of death aura.
This immediately made his heart just tightened, and he couldn’t help but open his mouth to Shen Mengxue:
“Little sister, this is …… on you?”
“Hehe, it’s nothing.”
However, Shen Mengxue was smiling and shook her head.
“I just used up some more of my lifespan by acting out some things earlier.”
With these words, Shen Mengxue’s face slowly took on a trace of gravity.
She looked at Shen Yuanlong and changed the topic:
“Elder brother, about the Qian Yang Sect’s action this time, I have some not so good premonitions, remember, turn around you and our Shen family, when the time comes, don’t lean too close to Elder Nangong, try to stay as far away as you can, as far away as you can.
I haven’t told anyone about this matter, you also remember not to mention it to anyone, just understand it in your own heart.”
The Elder Nangong that Shen Mengxue referred to here was the Jindan Realist who was leading the team from the Qianyang Sect this time.
This caused a layer of haze to rise within Shen Yuanlong’s heart for no reason.
For his own little sister’s reminder, Shen Yuanlong had never taken it lightly.
And the final facts proved that Shen Mengxue’s many reminders to him and the family in the past had helped him and even the family to avoid many risks and losses.
Now this time was even more exaggerated.
If one got it wrong, it was very possible to lose one’s life, so there was really no way for Shen Yuanlong not to pay attention to it.
Just three days after Shen Yuanlong and his group arrived at the Qianyang Sect, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who were located in the White Jade Market, arrived at a place called Cloud Immortal Pavilion.
This place was also where they were organizing this large-scale trade fair.
The two had just arrived at the Cloud Immortal Pavilion when they saw that quite a few cultivators had already gathered here.
Most of them Jiang Chengxuan didn’t recognize.
There were only a few that he had seen before at the trade fair in the workshop under the Liuyun Sect, and they were still somewhat familiar and impressive.
These included Wan Donglai of the Liuyun Sect, Yan Junlan of the Sunset Cloud Sect, Ye Feichen of the Ye Immortal Clan, and a male Foundation Establishment cultivator named Gu Zhenming of the Changtian Sect.
On the contrary, it was Shen Ruyan who recognized a large portion of these people present.
As she walked, she transmitted her voice to introduce herself to Jiang Chengxuan.
“That one is the Zhang Clan’s Immortal Clan’s Foundation Establishment Elder, named Zhang Kaixuan, that one is the loose cultivator Huanghe Diffuser, and the one on the right, seems to be named Bai Hao, nicknamed the Mad Swordsman, a true sword cultivator.”
As he was speaking, he saw Yan Junlan of the Sunset Cloud Sect arrive in front of Jiang Chengxuan and greeted him with a smile:
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, it’s been a long time, I hope you’ll take care of us this time in the trade fair.”
With that, her gaze then looked somewhat curiously at Shen Ruyan beside Jiang Chengxuan.
Looking at her, it seemed like she didn’t recognize Shen Ruyan.
So Jiang Chengxuan took the initiative to introduce himself, “Fellow Daoist Yan, let me introduce you, this is my Daoist partner Shen Ruyan.”
With that, he looked at Shen Ruyan again and said:
“Ruyan, this is Fellow Daoist Yan Junlan from the Sunset Cloud Sect, and also Fellow Daoist Qiu Yishui Qiu’s senior sister.”
“So it’s Fellow Daoist Jiang’s daoist couple, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Yan Junlan immediately arched his hand toward Shen Ruyan.
Shen Ruyan instantly smiled and returned the bow as well.
At this time, Jiang Chengxuan looked at Yan Junlan and couldn’t help but say with some curiosity:
“By the way, Fellow Daoist Yan, this time, Fellow Daoist Qiu, she didn’t join you?”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan mention Qiu Yishui, Yan Junlan couldn’t help but have a trace of worry appear on his face as he shook his head and said:
“She’s been summoned to head to the Qian Yang Sect this time, and I don’t know if there will be any danger.”
