Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 585: Chapter 47: The Commandery Prince’s Family Also Has No Surplus Grain_2 Chapter 585: Chapter 47: The Commandery Prince’s Family Also Has No Surplus Grain_2 “Indeed, disciples with devouring bloodlines are hard to bring up, but they can become quite formidable once managed.” The Heng Commandery Prince nodded his agreement before immediately changing his tone, “But what does this have to do with me?

No matter how formidable your disciple becomes, he is still your disciple.”

After much deliberation, he decided to put aside his pride: “Master Yunyang, we’ve long settled our ‘favor’ ordeal from the chicken incident back then.

If you really can’t afford to raise Lici, why not send him to the Sacred Land instead…”

“Sacred Land?” Master Yunyang’s expression changed slightly, “No way.

I like it here at Longzuo Academy.

I don’t want Lici to pick up any bad habits at the Sacred Land.”

“Master Yunyang, how many years has it been, and you’re still not over that incident?” The Heng Commandery Prince frowned slightly, “Sister Xiqing has been dead for so long, and Brother Lang Ya… ”

“Shut up!

My not going to Sacred Land has nothing to do with that.” A trace of darkness flashed across Master Yunyang’s face before he coldly scoffed, “Junior Brother Wu Hanheng, you don’t understand.

Being here at Longzuo Academy, I’ll be second only to one and above the rest.

… Why should I go to the Sacred Land and endure that exasperating guy?”

“Moreover, once old man Tianhe passes away, I will be the new dean.

The entire Longzuo’s Purple Abode Academy will be under my sole control.”

“Junior Brother Wu Hanheng, in life, one must always have a long-term perspective. You’re accommodating my disciples and me now, but once I take over Longzuo’s Purple Abode Academy, won’t there be a return?”

For a moment, the Heng Commandery Prince was torn between laughter and tears: “Master Yunyang, your foresight is truly remarkable.” …Can you at least wait until you’ve reached the Divine Power Territory before calling yourself an Enlightened One?

“Precisely…

If it wasn’t for my foresight, you wouldn’t have had chicken that year.

Maybe you would have starved to death.” Master Yunyang’s saintly demeanor coupled with his worldly-wise chatter, made for an unusual combination, “This is called long-term investment.

Understand?”

“I understand!” The Heng Commandery Prince nodded earnestly, “But on my side, we have a saying, ‘cut losses promptly’.

Master Yunyang, I may wear the title of ‘Commandery Prince’, but in essence, it’s just an empty shell~ The Prince’s family has no surplus~”

“Master Yunyang, I’m different from a single man like you.” The Heng Commandery Prince seemed to be weighed down by a heavy burden, saying depressively, “I have a queen, dozens of concubines, hundreds of courtesans, and countless princes and princesses to support.

My progeny is so numerous that even I can’t keep track.

These are all heavy responsibilities and burdens.”

“Honestly, sometimes I envy Master Yunyang’s…

freedom, lack of commitments, a crane in the clouds.”

Just like that, Master Yunyang was struck by lightning.

This…

Wu Hanheng…

He’s…

he’s overstepped.

Yes, eviction is one thing, but was there a need for such heavy artillery?

…

An hour later.

At the entrance of the White Cloud Tower, Master Yunyang and his young disciple Wang Licui were looking up at the slowly rising barrier, wordless.

The night wind blew listlessly, making two figures seem particularly desolate.

After a long while, Master Yunyang finally sighed softly, “Ah~ Uncle Heng is also having a hard time.

After all these years, if it wasn’t for the Wang Family’s flourishing business and the wealth gifted down from their forefathers, they would have been all eaten up countless times by now.

Licui, remember to reciprocate Uncle Heng’s kindness in the future, understand?”

“Don’t worry, master, I get it.”

Wang Licui diligently nodded, then stored the large bag of Heaven and Earth Treasures that the Heng Commandery Prince gave her before he left into her storage ring.

She then turned to her master and asked expectantly, “Master, where do we go now?”

“No rush, let me check my options first.

My wide network of friends is finally coming in handy at this crucial time.”

Master Yunyang then pulled out his notebook and started browsing through it.

He first marked off Wu Hanheng’s name with an “X”.

Then, he began to ponder.

…

As time flies, several months rolled by in a flash.

Great Qian Changlong Calendar, year 3167, January 19.

Early spring again.

The snow of winter was yet to melt, but the quarrel between the Qian and Wang families had gradually settled down, rarely mentioned in the whispers of locals.

After the completion of all the detailed negotiations in the agreement, the two families officially signed a contract, jointly witnessed by the Purple Abode Academy and Prefectural Governor’s Office, at the end of last year.

With Qian Family’s thousand-year-old foundation, they surely couldn’t be compared to the relatively new Wang family in terms of wealth, talent pool, business experience, or networking.

With the addition of the Qian family, Keep Achieving Commercial Firm rapidly expanded its operations.

The Zi Zhufeng Topecranes that had yet to be sold at the Purple Abode Academy were all purchased in one go by Keep Achieving Commercial Firm, all thanks to the influence of Wang Liyao.

Or else, the Academy might not have decided to sell them all.

The orders for the flying carriages were taken up by the largest refining workshop in Longzuo County, the Tiangong Workshop Longzuo Branch.

They worked overtime for three months straight before they could complete and deliver all the orders.

Now, several months later, the number of Spirit Bird Flying Carriages seen daily flying in the sky above Longzuo County has surged to sixty-seven.

According to Qian Xuehan’s report, they have dispatched elders from the Qian family to other counties to either buy or rent Spirit Bird Flying Carriages, aiming to increase the number of carriages to one hundred and twenty within the year.

It’s clear that when it comes to commercial acumen, the Wang family can’t hold a candle to the Qian family.
