In late September, at the foot of Yuyan Mountain, three people left the family and headed east.

They will pass through Anling City, board a flying boat, continue to the east, and reach Donghai City. Then turn from the East Sea to the north, cross a sea area in a straight line, and reach Liao County.

Lu Xueting, Lu Ranting and Lu Mingling walked together, and they went to propose marriage to Wen En.

The marriage between Lu Wenen and Gongsun Que is also on the agenda.

Ran Ting is Wen En's grandmother, so she is here to go; Xueting and Ran Ting are sisters, and if there is a foundation-building monk in this trip, it will also show the family's attention.

As for Lu Mingling who went with him, it was on one hand that he followed him to propose marriage. In addition, he also had an important task, which was to discuss with Gongsun and expand trade.

The Lu Family Trading Company has developed rapidly in the past two years. Now they are not only responsible for the sales of their own outputs, but other allied families in Anling County have also been brought into the Chamber of Commerce. Some of their production and specialties will gradually be handed over to them for sale.

This is also the result of Lu Mingling's negotiation. However, this matter has not been completely confirmed, and other families have limited trust in the Lu business. Lu Mingling hopes that through this exchange with Gongsun family, the north-south trade route can be opened up. This way, the goods will be sold better, which will be of great help to the prestige of the Lu business.

Ordinary small families do not have the ability to sell their products to Selangor in the north. They usually have to rely on pot-elevating stores to sell goods.

Now, it is definitely better to be able to pass through Lu's Trading Company. In the past, Husheng Trading Company had a very monopoly business intention, and the oil and water pumped in the middle, the purchase price and other things were stuck relatively hard. Lu's Trading Company would give much preferential prices in this regard.

Ming Ling took advantage of the proposal of marriage and the negotiations with Gongsun were also going smoothly. The Lu family transported goods, and Gongsun could eat a batch directly, and also allowed the Lu family's trading company to do business in Liao County - of course, this also had to cooperate with Gongsun, so that everyone could make money together.

Several goals were completed during the Lu family's trip to the northern border.

The wedding will be held in Yuyan Mountain two years later, and some people will come to Gongsun's family. The two families have reached an agreement to expand business cooperation, and the relationship between allies has become more reliable.

Even, to some extent, the exchanges between the two families have become very equal this time.

Of course, the Gongsun family is much stronger than the Lu family. After the battle of Bai Gui's great energy injury, they have now recovered. Although the Gongsun family still did not have Jindan monks, the number of Qiming monks has increased to eight, and there are thirty monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage. The number of monks in all cultivators exceeds a thousand, and there are many affiliated families. If they mobilize and mobilize all their strength to fight, they can mobilize more than five thousand monks.

But the Lu family has golden elixirs, and it may be easy to have two in two years.

This makes up for everything.

...

Two years later, the marriage between Lu Wenen and Gongsun Que was officially held.

After their wedding, the Lu Family Trading Company and the Gongsun Family members went to the Liao County trade route.

The two places are too far away, and we need to coordinate the flying boats used by the commercial bank - this is provided by Gongsun, not just for them, but for some of the warehouses to be given to the Lu commercial bank during the two passes a year.

Otherwise, with the current economic strength of the Lu family, it would be a bit difficult to build a large flying boat specializing in transportation from north to south, and that thing would be very expensive.

The preliminary preparations for trading were completed in the past two years. After Wen En's marriage, Ming Ling tried to make a trip.

Nothing wrong.

After returning to the family, he suddenly received a message - Lu Xinting, who was operating for a caravan in Changhong County, was attacked.

The enemy is very strong and almost instantly knocked down the team she led. She herself is a person at the seventh level of Qi training. In addition, the five casual cultivators in the team also have the strength of being above the middle stage of Qi training. They are destroyed by others in a flash. It is obvious that the one who takes action is at the level of building a foundation or above.

But the attackers did not kill anyone. Even after defeating them, they did not even snatch away the goods. They just left a letter and asked Lu Xinting to pass it over to their Lu family's head.

After returning, Xinting gave the letter to his nephew Mingling. Although he was of higher seniority, according to the family rules and regulations, Mingling was the head of the family chamber of commerce and Xinting's boss.

After receiving the letter, Lu Mingling found that it was a warning letter.

At this moment, the family also held a corresponding meeting on this, and the patriarch Lu Chaoxi, the patriarch, was alarmed.

Facing the inquiry, Lu Mingling said: "I guess it's Husheng Trading Company."

Although the warning letter was not signed, Ming Ling still guessed.

He further explained: "Actually, this is not the first time. Last time I went to Donghai County and prepared for the trade route, I encountered some resistance. A manager of Husheng Trading Company also specifically told me these things, persuading our Lu family to not do cross-continental business, and it is easy to lose money."

Husheng Business Company, the Lu family once had business with them, but the relationship was not bad.

However, this time, Lu's Commercial Bank's plan to open a North-South Trade Road was really hit by the cat's tail.

Feiyunzhou's two major commercial banks, Feiyun Commercial Bank mainly does local business and trade to the south; Husheng Commercial Bank, the second-ranked company, mainly does business transactions between Feiyunzhou and Xuezhou.

The Lu family wanted to build a business road to Liaojun by themselves, but they were obviously competing for business with them.

"Haha..." Lu Chaoxi smiled twice, and then said to Ming Ling, "The family ancestors attach great importance to the development of commercial roads. You should continue to do it well. I will solve the problem with Husheng Commercial Bank."

I wanted to ask how to solve it, but after hesitating, Lu Mingling still didn't ask.

The clan leader has his own way.

He went back to continue preparing for trade between the north and the south, and also made the decision to compensate Xinting, who was beaten up, for some compensation.

Lu Chaoxi set out for Qingfeng Gate a few days later.

He originally planned to go there soon. This is normal. Every once in a while, he would run to Qingfeng Gate to stay for a while and live directly in Li Yanling's cave. The cultivation efficiency of the fifth-level spiritual vein is quite good. Even as a guest elder of the sect, he also undertook a task last year, taking three foundation-building cultivators from Qingfeng Gate to deal with the haunted thing of a small family in Guangyang County, which was considered to have worked for the sect.

The reason for this is this... He and Li Yanling parted with Li Yanling just after getting married. Li Yanling wanted to return to the sect to practice hard and strive to enter the Golden Pill stage as soon as possible.
