As expected, it was a ssage from Brother Yunjing.
"Yue’Er, look, it’s a ssage from Brother Yunjing!"
After reading it, Xing’Er hurriedly called out to Yue’Er, who was balancing the accounts beside her.
Her voice was filled with pleasant surprise.
"Hmm? Let see!"
Yue’Er’s eyes curved into crescents as she heard it. She quickly put down the accounts, stood up, walked over to Xing’Er, and picked up the "Myriad Li Communication Talisman" to check the ssage.
"Brother Yunjing! We’re all doing well! ’Star Moon Trading Company’ is also doing great! Business has been good lately! Brother Yunjing, when will you co to see us? We miss you so much!"
Yue’Er sent the ssage over.
Li Yunjing hadn’t contacted the two girls for a long ti, making them feel apprehensive. They didn’t know if he was in the midst of cultivation, and they didn’t dare send a ssage to disturb him.
Today, they suddenly received a ssage from Li Yunjing, finally easing their worries, and their faces lit up with joy.
"Hmm! It might take so ti! I just advanced to the Foundation Establishnt Realm and need to complete a sect assessnt task. Once I finish it, I’ll co to the ’Red Sun Market’ to stay for a while and keep you company."
Seeing the reply, that everything was fine on their end, Li Yunjing smiled and quickly sent back a ssage.
The news of Li Yunjing advancing to the Foundation Establishnt Realm reached Xing’Er and Yue’Er, astonishing them. They didn’t expect Brother Yunjing to advance so quickly in his cultivation.
This also created a sense of urgency in the hearts of the two girls.
If they wanted to be with Li Yunjing for a long ti, they would need to at least break through to the Foundation Establishnt Realm themselves.
Otherwise, a hundred and seventy or eighty years later, the two of them would be skeletons, while Li Yunjing would still be at his pri, which was not the ending Xing’Er and Yue’Er desired.
Of course, Li Yunjing’s advancent to the Foundation Establishnt Realm had a huge advantage.
It ant that the behind-the-scenes owner of the "Star Moon Trading Company" was a significant figure in the Foundation Establishnt Realm.
This could deter other shops and make those envious of the "Star Moon Trading Company’s" developnt hesitate to act against it out of respect for Li Yunjing’s authority.
The three of them continued to exchange ssages, consuming several hundred spirit stones in no ti.
However, to Li Yunjing, this amount of spirit stones was insignificant now. After soothing Xing’Er and Yue’Er’s feelings, he discussed with them the matter of opening branch stores in the future.
Initially, Li Yunjing wanted to open his shop in "Myriad Swords City," which was an excellent choice.
He had a few friends within the "Myriad Swords Sect" and had t the sect leader, Celestial Sword Master, a few tis.
With his status, if he established a shop in "Myriad Swords City," Li Yunjing believed that no other forces would dare to bully his new store as long as "Myriad Swords Sect" was around.
And the new store’s manager in "Myriad Swords City" was also decided by Li Yunjing to be Feng Xueting.
Since she had pledged allegiance to him, Feng Xueting had stayed in the "Red Sun Market" all this ti.
The "Red Sun Market" was entirely the territory of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," so having or not having a Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivator like Feng Xueting didn’t make much difference.
However, having a Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivator in "Star Moon Trading Company’s" new store in "Myriad Swords City" would make all parties take it seriously.
Of course, Li Yunjing did not directly send information to Feng Xueting, assigning her the task.
He left it to Xing’Er and Yue’Er to handle, with the dual purpose of giving the two girls the experience to manage independently and making Feng Xueting accustod to following their orders.
It made clear that even as a Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivator, Feng Xueting was considered a subordinate to Xing’Er and Yue’Er, specifically tasked with protecting the shop and them.
Once the matters had been explained, Elder Yu returned to the reception room.
Li Yunjing also told Xing’Er and Yue’Er and ended his conversation with the two girls.
"Junior Brother Li, take a look at the contents of this jade scroll."
Elder Yu handed the jade scroll to Li Yunjing for him to review.
"Hmm! I’ll take a look!"
Li Yunjing nodded, taking the jade scroll and examining it carefully.
The contents mainly detailed the price of this transaction, delivery ti, and the enhanced paraters of the "Cyan Cloud Ship."
It also included a comparison with the paraters of the original "Cyan Cloud Ship," making everything clear at a glance.
Of course, the most important was the Great Seal of the "Celestial Comrce Shop."
There was a trace of imprinted branding from a Golden Core Realm expert, signifying the high-level confirmation of this transaction by the "Celestial Comrce Shop."
Overall, Li Yunjing was quite satisfied with the agreent, except that the "Cyan Cloud Ship" required a six-month delivery ti, which he found slightly inconvenient.
In half a year, he would be done with the border battles.
Wouldn’t he be missing a big killer artifact by then?
"Elder Yu, there’s no problem with the other aspects, but could the delivery ti be moved up a bit?"
After pondering for a while, Li Yunjing continued to ask.
"This... It might be difficult! Even if we work overti, it would still take four to five months."
Elder Yu thought for a while before speaking with a troubled expression.
He wasn’t lying; Li Yunjing’s requirents were extrely high. Enhancing all the paraters made it almost impossible for the "Celestial Craft Hall" to complete the work ahead of schedule.
This was a serious issue.
It required a team of artifact refiners to co together to develop a feasible plan before they could begin.
Six months was already a tight schedule.
The artifact refiners at the "Celestial Craft Hall" were busy with nurous tasks, and taking on the enhancent of the "Cyan Cloud Ship" was already an exception.
However, the "Celestial Craft Hall" was not dissatisfied.
After all, the cost of enhancing the "Cyan Cloud Ship" was substantial, and even the artifact refiners couldn’t resist the temptation of spirit stones.
"Hmm, I suppose this will have to do!"
"Elder Yu, I’ll take my leave now. If I’m unavailable to receive the ’Cyan Cloud Ship,’ I’ll have the true disciple Yu Yunyi from the ’Rising Sun Peak’ co to collect it!"
Li Yunjing reluctantly nodded and then bid farewell.
"No problem! I’ve noted it down! As long as the jade scroll is presented, anyone can collect the ’Cyan Cloud Ship’!"
Elder Yu cheerfully saw Li Yunjing off.
While on the second floor, Li Yunjing glanced around. The number of cultivators here was not small.
This level was dedicated to top-grade magical artifacts.
Instead of leaving imdiately, Li Yunjing entered the second level to carefully examine the magical artifacts available.
Among them, so had extrely high quality.
They could be considered the cream of the crop.
Having already spent a significant amount, Li Yunjing thought it was just a bit more money. He then purchased more than ten pieces of magical artifacts, including Daoist robes, jade hairpins, leather boots, and necklaces... Two full sets of top-grade magical artifacts, all for female cultivators.
These artifacts were prepared by Li Yunjing for Xing’Er and Yue’Er.
With these artifacts for protection, even a First Heaven Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivator wouldn’t be able to kill Xing’Er or Yue’Er with a few strikes.
After leaving the "Celestial Comrce Shop," Li Yunjing wandered around the market, especially stopping by the talisman shops to buy so tier-two talisman papers.
After strolling around the "Donghua Market," Li Yunjing spent nearly four million low-grade spirit stones.
This huge expenditure made even Li Yunjing shiver.
"Sigh! I still need to go to the ’Scripture Pavilion’ to exchange for so books. My savings won’t last long at this rate! I’m almost out of spirit stones!"
Li Yunjing stood on the bustling street, looking at the throngs of people, sighing repeatedly.
As for the tier-three materials he had, Li Yunjing couldn’t bear to part with any of them.
Tier-one and tier-two materials could still be bought with spirit stones in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, even if it ant visiting several markets to find a shop that had them.
However, tier-three materials were scarce resources.
Collecting even one piece was incredibly difficult.
This was one reason tier-three materials were so expensive; they couldn’t be bought without high-grade spirit stones.
The valuable items Li Yunjing painstakingly acquired, once used, wouldn’t be replenished easily.
Even if Li Yunjing beca so poor he had no spirit stones left, he wouldn’t sell those valuable items.
At worst, he would tighten his belt and scrape by!
