Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 192: Chapter 192: Ban Li Order

In front of the emerald bamboo sea, a gentle rain had fallen all night and lingered from winter through the spring equinox.

The entire world seemed more clear and expansive.

A spiritual ship, amidst the inclined rain and wind, landed in front of the Bamboo Forest Market.

Ye Xinghe skillfully opened the market’s array, revealing a winding, elongated bamboo forest path.

Then he invited Ye Jingcheng in.

Compared to the previous tense journeys where they might encounter evil cultivators at any moment, this time the Ye family was much more at ease, enjoying the gloomy rain and misty weather, even sipping tea and composing poetry.

After all, Ye Jingcheng not only reached Foundation Establishment but also had two Tier Two spirit beasts.

With such strength, as long as the Xu and Mo families did not intervene, in the Taihang Commandery, there were few who could threaten Ye Jingcheng.

Moreover, even the Mo and Xu families, due to the abandonment of the Li family, would not provoke the Ye family at this time.

Ye Jingcheng estimated that the big disturbance might even relate to the Chu family, whose background was tougher than the Ye family.

Thus, he was more assured.

Of course, while assured, the Jade Ring Rat on the spiritual ship was still listening diligently.

Only until entering the market did Ye Jingcheng put it away.

This time, there were five coming to the market, including Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xinghe, and also Ye Jingyun, Ye Xingxu, Ye Haiyun.

Among them, only Ye Xinghe was not an alchemy master.

This time, in order to overthrow the Li family’s pill shop, the Ye family spent a lot of resources.

Following the path, Ye Jingcheng and the others followed Ye Xinghe into the market.

The market was still bustling with lanes, pavilions, and cultivators dressed in various Daoist robes.

But Ye Jingcheng, looking around, noticed fewer familiar faces and more unfamiliar ones in the market.

The only commonality was their fervor and adherence to the path of cultivation seen in their eyes.

The group was not new to the Taihang Market, so they moved quickly, reaching the Ye Family shop in less than half an hour, and the business was indeed much better than before.

The doors were open wide, with cultivators inquiring and coming in and out frequently.

In the Jade Dragon Valley battle, the Ye family’s spirit beasts performed outstandingly, spurring a spirit beast trend throughout the Taihang Market.

In the courtyard, Ye Xinghong patiently introduced the family’s spirit beasts and various youngins, while Ye Jinhao was busy running back and forth.

Besides them, there were a few younger figures, newly joined family members helping in the market.

“No need for introductions to your Thirteenth Aunt and Jinhao. Among the three left, the one with slightly longer hair is Jing Li, with a sweet smile is Jing Tian, and the remaining one is Jingzhi. They’ve all been at the market not long.” Ye Xinghe introduced to everyone.

Ye Jingcheng and the others looked one by one, memorizing the names.

“Eleventh Brother, Fourth Grandfather, Elder Uncle!” The newly joined clan members saw Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xinghe arrive and hurriedly greeted them.

“Carry on, Jingcheng and I, along with your Fourth Grandfather, have important matters to discuss!” Ye Xinghe and Ye Jingcheng, Ye Haiyun casually greeted the other family members, heading towards the inner courtyard.

They first helped arrange rooms for Ye Jingyun and Ye Xingxu.

Then they entered the adjacent reception hall.

For the three of them, they had more critical matters to attend to.

After all, Ye Jingcheng, as a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the market, was not just loitering.

“Jingcheng, here’s the plan we prepared in advance, take a look!” Once entering the hall in the inner courtyard, Ye Xinghe activated the array isolating divine sense and took out a jade talisman.

The jade talisman contained the plan for sanctioning the Li family this time.

Things were different now, with Ye Xinghe making decisions and Ye Haiyun making the final call.

Ye Jingcheng was the highest in Foundation Establishment, thus all plans must pass through him. Even if he wouldn’t make the decisions himself, he still needed to review them.

From the jade talisman, Ye Jingcheng fully supported his Elder Uncle’s strategy with both hands.

It included purchasing Li family’s elixirs, offering Spirit Nourishing Pills.

Price reduction would affect the Xu and Mo families, but gifting Spirit Nourishing Pills would not.

For every five purchases of Tier One Middle Cyan Grain Pill, one Spirit Nourishing Pill is gifted.

For every two purchases of Tier One High-Grade Celestial Essence Pill or Spirit Nourishing Pill, one Spirit Nourishing Pill is gifted.

And if buying one Tier Two Purple Wood Pill, five Spirit Nourishing Pills are gifted.

The price of Spirit Nourishing Pills is about 2 Spirit Stones each, so they are quite attractive to many loose cultivators.

Even if they did not use them themselves, they could resell them.

After all, these Spirit Nourishing Pills were the most authentic from the Ye family.

The key is, the Ye family didn’t lower the price, so even the Chu or Mo families couldn’t say anything.

Moreover, other families weren’t able to replicate it.

“Fourth Grandfather, Elder Uncle, I suggest our family sets up a Ban Li Order.” Ye Jingcheng thought for a while before speaking.

“Ban Li Order?” Ye Xinghe was puzzled.

He understood the literal meaning but was unsure about the prohibition method.

“The idea is buying treasures from our Ye family, if they make a heart demon oath not to buy treasures from Li family, they can benefit from a discount of one Spirit Stone for every thirty purchased Spirit Stones. Furthermore, if able to bring fifty cultivators to acquire the Ban Li Order from our Ye family, one free alchemy session regardless of the pill formula will be offered, as long as they provide the spirit medicine!”

“Additionally, the Ban Li Order doesn’t limit purchases to certain elixirs, it can apply to spirit beast purchases as well.” Ye Jingcheng explained.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xinghe’s expression changed, savoring the idea.

A few moments later, he calmed down.

Praising Ye Jingcheng with a thumbs up.

Compared to Ye Jingcheng’s strategy, he felt his own was too gentle.

Targeting the pill formula was too shallow.

Ye Jingcheng’s proposal brought a significant surprise.

Such a targeting plan was unprecedented in the cultivation realm, where cultivation and power were more valued.

Currently, since the Li family lacked power, the Ye family had the legitimate grounds.

“I have no objections, I think Jingcheng’s suggestion is excellent!” Ye Haiyun responded quickly.

At this moment, he viewed Ye Jingcheng in a new light, no wonder Ye Jingcheng could invent pill formulas; his thoughts were different.

He even felt that Ye Jingcheng might be more suitable than Ye Jingyu for the position.

“Alright, in a few days, I’ll contact the Chu family’s Chief Steward. I believe they will be very interested in receiving our commercial intelligence!” Ye Xinghe said.

“Indeed, Chu and Ye families will soon become allied through marriage, perfect for the first joint action benefits!”

“Just not sure if it will be Jing Yong or the other two lads!” Ye Xinghe, feeling particularly delighted having a plan against the Li family, rarely joked, and took out a bottle of Jade Wave Wine from his storage bag, beginning to savor it.

“Jingcheng, in the upcoming days, you might also consider purchasing Jade Wave Wine, as our family recently highly endorses it!”
