Chapter 1094: Chapter 745: First Encounter with Lu Jianghua (2)
“Then I shall accept the offer graciously!”
It’s a kind gesture from others, and it would be impolite to refuse.
Moreover, the Lingxi Yang Family indeed needs to acquire so more industries now.
…
“Granduncle, is Golden Pond Mountain really ours now?”
In the Lingxi Yang Family, Yang Xiangheng looked at Yang Zhenshan with surprise and delight, his eager gaze made Yang Zhenshan seem like a charming lady instead of a burly man.
Yang Zhenshan felt uneasy under his gaze, “Enough, you’re already quite old, stop being so startled, quickly arrange for people to take over the Wan family’s industries, as well as their three villages, they will be ours too now, make necessary arrangents!”
“Sure, sure! I’ll arrange it right away!” Yang Xiangheng grinned widely, showing his teeth.
Nowadays, no one in the Yang Family is as eager as him to acquire more industries, nor anyone else desires to revitalize the Lingxi Yang Family more than he does.
For many years, he lived in helplessness and powerlessness, and only he knows the bitterness of it.
Now that the Yang Family has gained more industries, one can imagine his excitent.
It’s the Golden Pond!
The Golden Pond yields over a thousand pounds of Gold Attribute Spirit Water annually.
Thinking that the Golden Pond will be the property of the Yang Family from now on, he felt so thrilled that he wanted to jump up.
“Hurry up and go!”
Yang Zhenshan waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
“Nephew thanks Granduncle!” Yang Xiangheng did not leave imdiately, but solemnly knelt down to express his gratitude.
Yang Zhenshan didn’t stop him, and after he got up and left, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
The breakthrough of Lu Fusheng had a significant impact on the Ancient County; the most direct effect was the exemption from taxes for the entire Ancient County for three years, which compensates for the congratulatory gifts sent by various clans.
The greatest impact on the Ancient County is making the situation more stable.
For years, the Sun family and the Lu family had been at each other’s throats, though much of it was for show, it still left the Ancient County in turmoil. Lingxi Yang Family was not involved due to their remote location.
Now that Lu Fusheng has broken through, the drama between the Sun family and the Lu family should co to an end.
Reportedly, the Sun family sent costly gifts to the Lu family in the county city, and the previous acts of strife disappeared entirely.
Besides these, the Lingxi Yang Family also experienced other impacts.
Yang Zhenshan spent over two hours in discussion with Lan Peng and Lu Fusheng at the county governnt; although it wasn’t a major affair, it held significant implications for other families.
Furthermore, the Lingxi Yang Family took over industries from the Wan family, and neighboring Martial Arts Families aren’t foolish enough not to understand what this ans.
The day after the Yang Family took over Golden Pond Mountain, Zhang Chenghuai, the Family Head of the Luyuan Zhang Family, visited.
“Junior Zhang Chenghuai pays respects to Senior Yang!” Zhang Chenghuai’s complexion wasn’t good, full of weary fatigue, yet still maintained a smiling face upon eting Yang Zhenshan.
Yang Zhenshan gestured politely, “Family Head Zhang, no need for formalities, please be seated!”
“Thank you, Senior!”
Once seated, Yang Zhenshan casually asked, “Has the funeral for the elder been completed?”
There’s so connection between the Yang and Zhang families; both suffered oppression from the Xiang family, and once intended to unite against them, but negotiations failed, mainly because the Yang Family had already declined considerably, and the Zhang Family didn’t hold the Yang Family in high regard—aiming only for them to bear the brunt against the Xiang family.
This connection exists, but whether it’s good or bad is hard to say.
As they say, when the wall crumbles, everyone pushes; when the Yang Family declined, others sought to take advantage, and the Zhang Family likely held such intentions.
However, that was past; after the Zhang family’s ancestor was killed, Yang Zhenshan sent Yang Xiangheng to the Zhang family to offer condolences, primarily for Lu Jianghua’s sake.
“Thanks to Senior’s concern, the family elder’s funeral is completed!”
Zhang Chenghuai forced a slight smile and said.
This ti, the Zhang family suffered huge losses, with over half the clan mbers dead or injured, and their ancestor was killed by the Soul-breaking Blade. Without their connection to Lu Jianghua, they would have faced ruin.
“Junior ca this ti to thank Senior Yang; it’s thanks to Senior Yang that revenge was achieved for my Wan family!”
“This is the junior’s token of gratitude; please accept it, Senior!”
Zhang Chenghuai placed a gift list before Yang Zhenshan.
Yang Zhenshan waved him off, “You should be thanking General Lan; I only accompanied him, it’s nothing much!”
“Junior has already thanked General Lan, and knows that if not for Senior Yang’s intervention, the perpetrator would have caused greater atrocities! Our Wan family’s preservation this ti relies entirely on Senior’s outstanding strength!”
On ntioning this, Zhang Chenghuai’s gratitude was even more genuine.
He spoke no falsehood; without Yang Zhenshan accompanying them, Lan Peng and the Red Fla Army could not have retreated unscathed. Even if Lan Peng escaped, there would be severe casualties among the Red Fla Army.
If Lan Peng suffered any mishaps due to the Wan family’s issue, the Zhang family wouldn’t be spared either.
At its core, the issue originated with the Zhang family.
Yang Zhenshan wasn’t aware of Zhang Chenghuai’s thoughts, but seeing his heartfelt gratitude, he accepted the token.
After seeing Zhang Chenghuai off, Yang Xiangheng ca again.
“Granduncle!”
“Hmm? What’s up?” Yang Zhenshan looked at him in surprise.
“Well, we’re a bit short on manpower!” Yang Xiangheng said sowhat embarrassed.
“…”
Yang Zhenshan was left speechless.
The Lingxi Yang Family now has just over a hundred mbers, with nearly half being elderly, won, and children, and capable hands are indeed scarce.
In this Sea of Spirit, those without cultivation reaching Innate aren’t considered useful.
Currently, besides the people Yang Zhenshan brought, only Yang Xiangheng is an Innate Martial Artist in the Lingxi Yang Family.
“Since manpower is lacking, train them; here, take these items and exchange them for Spirit Pills, prompt Yang Xiangdong and others to break through!”
“Also, select so young ones from Wan family’s villages, let Wang Lei train them for a few years; they’ll be able to help with errands!”
“Rember, treat those villagers well; our Yang Family’s foundations are thin now, it’s crucial to earn goodwill, don’t commit acts that drive people away!”
Training manpower can’t happen instantly, but it doesn’t matter—Yang Family has him as a Heavenly Gang Stage Martial Artist, surrounding Martial Arts Families wouldn’t dare provoke him unless they’re foolish.
As for other matters, they’ll manage sohow.
“Yes!” Yang Xiangheng considered and realized this is indeed the current feasible solution, then continued, “Granduncle, the Red Fla Army didn’t take the Wan family’s cultivation techniques. I took the liberty of bringing them back; would you like to see them, Granduncle?”
“Oh? They didn’t take them?” Yang Zhenshan asked in surprise.
Spirit Source Land cultivation techniques in the Sea of Spirit aren’t allowed to be copied, thus they hold so value.
Of course, selling them privately wouldn’t fetch the high price like at the Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion, but a volu of Earth Evil Stage Energy Introduction Skill could sell for ten Spirit Stones or more.
Logically, the Wan family’s assets should have ended up with the Red Fla Army, yet they left the cultivation techniques behind.
“Captain Chen said General Lan gifted them to Granduncle,” Yang Xiangheng replied.
Yang Zhenshan understood; it was deliberately left by Lan Peng.
“Then bring them over; I’ll send them to the Hidden Skill Pavilion in a couple of days!”
The Hidden Skill Pavilion of the Yang Family is not as empty as before; over the years Yang Zhenshan bought many cultivation techniques, leaving most in the Spirit Source Land, while a few are placed in the Yang Family’s Hidden Skill Pavilion for internal practice.
Of course, copies exist at the Spirit Source Land, even though copying is forbidden in the Sea of Spirit, Yang Zhenshan can copy as he pleases in the Spirit Source Land; the three sects can’t interfere there.
