Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

"Anyway, I’ll just go notify Li Yixun. As long as I maintain a good attitude, it shouldn’t be a big problem."

Calculated reflection.

The train shuttled through the State Capital. After alighting and leaving the train station, Yuchi could already see the mansion in front of him. The mansion was surrounded by very tall buildings; only this mansion stood in front of them like a pearl surrounded by gems, with lighting perfectly and neatly accommodated on all sides.

"Tsk tsk, a wealthy aristocratic family indeed."

"To have such a large villa in the city center of the State Capital and also control the essentials of daily life in the entire State Capital, no wonder they can have direct conversations with the Celestial Craft Workshop. Do they really have no sense of insecurity, or is it just because they control a large population of the State Capital’s citizens?"

"In such times, a single person is of no use; even in business, it’s about the cash flow and the number of citizens a family can control, whether it’s passive support or active control. The more citizens a family can control, the greater their voice outside."

"Thus, the Li Family and the Bu Family of the Celestial Craft Workshop’s outer chamber should be evenly matched? I reckon the Li Family is slightly weaker, but within the State Capital, it should not be an issue."

Subsequently, Yuchi came to the front of the mansion, where a guard promptly approached.

"Hello, is there anything I can assist you with?"

"Hmm, I am Zong Liangqing, here to see Patriarch Li."

"Please hold on a moment."

The guard went off immediately, and before long, he returned: "Please come in!"

...

In one of the rooms of the Li Family’s mansion, Li Yixun was talking with Li Erbing about some matters.

After taking a drag from his pipe, Li Yixun tapped it against his hand and said to Li Erbing, "Second brother, everything is settled now. We’ll proceed as originally planned and confront the Celestial Craft Workshop."

Li Erbing, not at all surprised, also held a pipe: "It’s fine, we can do that. Can we start collecting the gold and silver from the others?"

Li Yixun took a long puff, nodding solemnly: "Yes, please handle that. Anyway, we need to account for the Celestial Capital Department, Demon-slaying Bureau, and others. They take the lion’s share, and any small profit we get is just a bonus."

Li Erbing took an even longer drag, smoke exhaling from both nostrils as he said, "I get it; I’ll handle everything smoothly. We’ve done this before, and it won’t be a problem for me."

Li Yixun naturally trusted his second brother but still reminded him, "Second Brother, get more money this time. It’s all about rich people’s money; might as well take it. They haven’t been squeezed in ten years, right? It’s time to let them bleed a bit."

"Not just ten years, probably fifteen years." Li Erbing already knew what to do, but before proceeding, he remembered something and asked proactively, "So, is this Zong Liangqing no issue? I don’t know where this guy popped up from; he seems very strange."

His knowledge of Yuchi was limited to the previous conversation, so hearing about a Zong Liangqing suddenly appearing seemed puzzling and abrupt.

Li Yixun didn’t hide anything from his brother, explaining, "Zong Liangqing, I don’t know the exact details, but he’s associated with the Celestial Craft Workshop."

"Really? Is Zong Liangqing really involved with the Celestial Craft Workshop?" Li Erbing immediately became more cautious.

The Celestial Craft Workshop is not to be trifled with; even as mortals, they are not afraid of cultivators in high-end battles.

"Yes, do you know Bu Luohua? She’s Wang Haoran’s youngest daughter, and she’s currently cultivating at Zong Liangqing’s sect." Li Yixun said simply, with a bit of emotion, not to mention Li Erbing, who was hearing such news suddenly.

Holding his pipe, Li Erbing was utterly bewildered: "Big brother, this isn’t funny; did Zong Liangqing really take in Bu Luohua? Is this for real? I’ve never heard of such a person before; is he that sharp? Could the other side be an ancient sect?"

When Li Erbing asked such convoluted questions, it indicated his inner turmoil. Over the years, Li Yixun had come to understand his brother’s patterns and laughed, saying, "Who knows the exact details? But Wang Haoran’s intentions are clear; they brought Zong Liangqing over to take the spoils."

Li Erbing nodded, feeling conflicted about Zong Liangqing’s mystery and the impending financial loss: "Are they really taking the meat? How about just the soup?"

They ran around in circles, only for an unknown person to come and take the spoils. Even if it’s someone from the Celestial Craft Workshop, this kind of aggression is uncalled for. Paying is one thing, but handing over a large portion to this suddenly appeared Zong Liangqing is unreasonable.
