594 Exclusive Sponsor (3)

It was not a good thing to let Bi Yun and Bi Chong know that they were the reincarnations of great cultivators.

It was better to form a relationship first and see how the arrangements could be made in the future.

The Han Trading Company had several shops in the Imperial City. The largest one was on Mingxuan Street in the middle city.

There were 12 door fronts in a row. There was a wide parking space for horses and carriages in front of the door, and there were wooden chairs for travelers to sit on.

The design of the Han Trading Company’s shop was based on many of Han Muye’s suggestions.

At this moment, none of the surrounding shops were as lively as the Han Trading Company.

Han Muye had just walked to the front of the trading company when a young female attendant greeted him with a smile.

“The Han Trading Company welcomes our esteemed guest.”

Most people would go into the shop to take a look.

As he followed the female attendant into the shop, he saw that goods were on display everywhere and people were coming and going, casually choosing the items.

Only precious medicinal pills or spiritual weapons would be handled by assigned employees.

The Han Corporation started from the Western Frontier with the medicinal pills that Han Muye had personally refined as its foundation. At this moment, it no longer relied on him alone.

Looking at the store, there were all kinds of medicinal pills and spiritual weapons. Most of them were produced in the Central Continent.

The Han family’s business in the Central Continent mainly relied on Kong Chaode. Looking at the shop now, it could be seen that Kong Chaode was talented.

Recently, Kong Chaode had not been in the Imperial City. Before he left, he went to the Pill Destiny Pavilion to see Han Muye and told him that he could just look for Chen Ru, the manager in the Imperial City.

Chen Ru was from the Imperial City and came from a small aristocratic family. His family’s dao had declined, so he abandoned scholarly research and joined the merchants.

When the Han Trading Company entered the Imperial City, Kong Chaode valued Chen Ru’s ability and immediately bribed the family behind him.

Such a large sum of money made Chen Ru stay with the Han Trading Company willingly.

“Is Shopkeeper Chen here?”

Looking around the shop, Han Muye turned to look at the female servant beside him.

The female attendant was slightly stunned. She bowed slightly and said, “How should I address you, esteemed guest? Do I need to inform Shopkeeper Chen?”

Han Muye nodded and handed over a jade token.

“He knows who I am.”

The maid quickly took the jade token and turned to go upstairs.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in his forties in a green robe walked over quickly.

This was the manager of the Han Trading Company in the Imperial City, Chen Ru.

“Chen Ru greets Master.” Chen Ru walked forward and said in a low voice.

He had visited Han Muye with Kong Chaode last time.

At that time, he was stunned.

The Pill Destiny Pavilion’s small shop was filled with calligraphy and paintings. If converted into spiritual rocks, they could set up a few Han Trading Company shops in the Imperial City.

His master lived in seclusion in the most low-key way and flaunted his wealth in an even more low-key way.

Also, the medicinal pills refined with the Pill Destiny Pavilion’s Pill Transformation Technique were clearly created by his master.

To be able to develop such pill refinement techniques, it could be seen that his master was an alchemy cultivator with a profound alchemy cultivation!

The female attendant behind Chen Ru didn’t expect that the manager of the Han Family Trading Company in the Imperial City would be so respectful to the young master in front of him.

One had to know that with the status of the head shopkeeper, even if the direct descendants of those large families came, they would not personally receive them.

What is the identity of the person who’s here today? she wondered.

Han Muye raised his hand for Chen Ru to get up, then the two of them went to the quiet room on the second floor.

Chen Ru hurriedly reported the recent profits of the shops in the Imperial City and took out a jade box.

Among them were some spiritual herbs that he had collected.

Han Muye had previously said that spiritual rocks were useless to him, but he had to keep the good spiritual herbs.

Be it refining pills himself or practicing for Mu Wan, he needed spiritual herbs.

Han Muye put away the spiritual herbs and handed a jade slip to Chen Ru.

“Where is Lin Shen now? Pass this to him.”

Back then, Lin Shen had escorted Kong Chaode to the Central Continent to open up a trade route. He was a senior in the Han Family Trading Company, and all the higher-ups in the trading company knew him.

Chen Ru had worked with Lin Shen before and knew that Instructor Lin was a trusted aide of the family head.

After receiving the jade slip, Chen Ru said, “Brother Lin Shen is currently in the Huwei Camp in the south of the city. He has received the military position of lieutenant of a thousand troops and is training the soldiers every day.”

Most of the generals in the Red Flame Army had families and forces behind them. It was rare for someone like Lin Shen to be able to enlist by himself and become a commander of a thousand troops.

Han Muye nodded. Chen Ru would arrange for someone to give the jade slip to Lin Shen.

Han Muye had explained the rebirth of Lin Chongxiao and Daoist Chongyun in the jade slip.

As Chen Ru was putting away the jade slip, Han Muye commented on what struck him immediately when he came to the shop. Then he said, “There are too few Confucianist literary treasures in the shop. It’s difficult to attract Confucianist cultivators.

“Confucianism reigns supreme in the Central Continent. If we can’t attract these Confucianism cultivators to our shop, we lose a lot of business.”

Earlier, Han Muye noticed that there were many spiritual materials and spiritual artifacts for sale in the shop. There were also some medicinal pills that were worth a lot.

However, the value of these things was fixed, and the profits were not as big as expected.

The customers in the shop were mostly cultivators and some wealthy mortals.

There were very few Confucian cultivators.

Han Muye did not see many literary treasures.

“Master, most Confucian cultivators are virtuous and refrain from material pursuits. Even if we have literary treasures, they’re unwilling to buy them.” Chen Ru shook his head with a wry smile.

“Also, the Confucian Dao Treasure Trade in the city is monopolized by those booksellers and literary pavilions. It’s very difficult for outsiders to compete in this business.”

Most of the scholars were great cultivators of Confucianism.

These people could gather all kinds of literary treasures without spending any money in the name of interactions.

How could outsiders compete in this kind of business?

In fact, speaking of literary treasures, the great cultivators of the Imperial City Academy would have a pile of them, right?

Han Muye understood Chen Ru’s difficulties.

He pondered for a moment and took out a few scrolls.

“These are all great scholarly writing treasures. Hang them in a conspicuous place in the shop.”

Great Confucian calligraphy!

Chen Ru was delighted and quickly took them.

Such treasures were worth millions.

The value of these things exceeded the power they could unleash.

As the saying goes, a thousand pieces of gold can’t buy a person’s heart.

“These are not for you to sell. Just hang them up. If anyone asks, just say that you’re friends of the owner of the trading company.”

Seeing Chen Ru’s expression, Han Muye shook his head.

Not to sell, but only to hang?

Chen Ru looked up at Han Muye and whispered, “Master, is there a problem?”

Using the reputation of these scholars to attract customers might offend these people.

The great cultivators of Confucianism all had strange tempers. If they were to cause the great cultivators to burn down the shop, who could they reason with?

“Don’t worry, they will give me face,” Han Muye said calmly.

After that, he lowered his voice. “Go to the Cloud Brocade Immortal Ship and tell Princess Yunjin that the Han Family Trading Company is going to be the exclusive sponsor of the upcoming Jade Epiphyllum Literary Conference.”

Cloud Brocade Immortal Ship!

Princess Yunjin!

The legitimate daughter of King Qi!

Chen Ru suppressed the surprise in his eyes and asked in confusion, “Master, what is an exclusive sponsor?”
