For ten shops, the rent for one year is 5,000 yuan, and for ten consecutive years, the rent is 50,000 yuan Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

It doesn't sound like much, but now that you've made such a big bet before you've even seen the profits, aren't you afraid of losing everything?

Du Huating looked at Liu Hongye with eyes full of surprise and uncertainty. Is this guy crazy?

"Hahaha, okay. Fellow Daoist, you can go to Luoshui Riverbank to choose a store soon. I guarantee you will be satisfied." Song Changsheng agreed regardless of what Liu Hongye thought.

But honestly speaking, according to his expectations, as long as the other party manages it properly, it is basically impossible to lose money, and it can even make a lot of money.

If it weren't for Lineage's limited strength, it would have been impossible for him to open so many stores in prime locations.

Seeing that the two of them had left ten stores as soon as they sang together, Du Huating and Yu Chengshan immediately became anxious and hurriedly left the remaining two stores. Regardless of whether they made money or owed money, they had to get it first. If they were too late, none of them would be lost.

At this point, the twelve shops have been divided between the two sides.

Song Changsheng immediately beamed, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to fellow Daoists, I promise you won't be disappointed."

"Hmph." Yu Chengshan snorted and turned away. No matter what Market's future profits are, they will be the ones who suffer anyway.

Song Changsheng doesn't take it seriously either. If you fail to seize the opportunity given to you, you won't be able to blame anyone in the future.

"Fellow Daoists, you can go to Luoshui Riverbank to choose a store now, and you can move in at a later date. Although there is only one Second-Tier High Grade Array installed there now, our clan is confident that we can protect your safety."

Song Changsheng's tone was full of confidence. Since he dared to make this move, he naturally had this confidence.

Luoshui Riverbank's Defense Great Array was arranged by him personally [Heavenly Net Covering Water Array], composed of Mid-Grade Spirit Artifact [Heavenly Net] and Second-Tier High Grade Law Artifact [Covering Water Seal] acts as Formation Eye, integrating attack, defense and trapping. It is not a problem to block three or five Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

What's more, he also left [Black Star Battleship] there, and with the cooperation of Quasi Sky Battleship, unless Purple Palace Cultivator came in person, Market would be impregnable!

Regarding Song Changsheng, everyone was unconvinced. If safety could not be guaranteed, they would have killed Song Clan themselves.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Song, I wonder if consignments will be accepted at the auction?" Du Huating said suddenly.

Liu Hongye looked startled, and then secretly cursed himself for not thinking of this. Liuyun Sect's predecessor was an exile in the north, and he still had some background, but he didn't have many Spirit Stone on hand.

Originally, it could still barely turn over, but Song Clan was asked to break the situation before, and almost all of Spirit Stone's reserves were emptied. He planned to sell off the sect's heritage.

It's all for sale anyway, and the revenue from the auction is definitely the biggest.

Thinking of this, he quickly said, "I also have this intention."

The more treasures there are in the auction, the more beneficial it will be for the Song Clan. Song Changsheng naturally cannot refuse and said with a smile, "Of course you can. If there are treasures that need to be sent for auction, just get them directly to Auction House. As long as they pass the appraisal, you can participate in the auction. We only charge a 10% commission."

Both of them showed joy in their eyes, bowed their hands to Song Changsheng, and then left happily.

"I'm so happy to sell my property." Song Changsheng shook his head, with a look on his face that said, "I hate that iron cannot be transformed into steel."

But I don't even think about who is the culprit that caused all this.

After sending a few people away, Song Changsheng was in a good mood and came to Family Treasury with his hands behind his back and humming a little tune.

For this auction, Song Clan took out a lot of treasures from the bottom of the box, including Third-Tier spirit medicine, Ores, etc.

Now that the auction is about to take place, he naturally wants to come over and take a look to avoid any mistakes...

Time flies, and the date for the auction is gradually approaching. Interested people find that Ling Province is much more lively than before.

Especially for Luoshui Riverbank, the major inns were already overcrowded, so Song Clan had to urgently expand the area so that the monks who came to participate in the auction would not use the sky as their quilt and the earth as their bed.

Song Changsheng also led a large number of elites to Market in advance to take charge.

Although Market has just started, it has begun to take shape. In addition to Auction House, there are dozens of stores that have begun operations.

Including but not limited to restaurants, wine shops, inns, weapon refiners, Medicinal Pills, etc.

Among them, there are the most shops with Silver Moon Clan Emblem and the best locations. They belong to the owner of this place - Song Clan.

The second one is Liuyun Sect, which won ten places in one breath, and because it was chosen first, its position is second only to the Song Clan.

Then there is Wang Clan. As an ally of the Song Clan, Song Changsheng will naturally not treat them badly and leave them five shops.

The last one is Wuling Sect. Because of Du Huating's hesitation, they only have two stores, and their locations are relatively remote.

Originally Du Huating was still comforting himself in his heart. If the benefits were not good, they would lose the least.

But Du Huating regretted it on the first day of business, because the popularity of this auction far exceeded their expectations. Up to now, there are still three days before the auction officially starts, but Market has already gathered more than a thousand monks from different origins.

Perhaps compared to the number of Liuyun Market, it is still far behind.

But Luoshui Market is only in its infancy now. As long as it operates normally, it will be a matter of time before it surpasses Liuyun Market.

Thinking of this, Du Huating regretted more and more, and could only comfort himself secretly, "It's all just temporary. When the sect leader breaks through the Purple Mansion, these will change."

In the past, he might have said that Song Clan could be destroyed with just one hand, but now he no longer dares to have such an idea.

Because he doesn't think Chang Wudao will be stronger than Silver Moon Demonic Wolf after it breaks through the Purple Mansion.

Even Great Demon was defeated by the Song Clan. Can Chang Wudao still destroy Song Clan?

Moreover, it is not a secret that Song Xianming broke through seclusion. Du Huating now only hopes that Chang Wudao can break through quickly to avoid being liquidated by the Song Clan.

It can only be said that the situation is not up to anyone, it is changing too fast.

Fortunately, he has contacted a reliable ally, and self-protection should not be a problem in the future...

In the Garrison Manor, Song Changsheng personally took charge and coordinated, while Xia Yunxue, Song Chang'an and others led the Lineage elite tribesmen to patrol in Market to avoid chaos.

This kind of thing has happened before. Before, a Foundation Establishment Rogue Cultivator ignored the order issued by the Song Clan that no private fights were allowed in Market, and killed a Qi Condensation Rogue Cultivator in Market.

After the incident, Song Lutong arrived as soon as possible and killed the perpetrator Foundation Establishment Cultivator on the spot in full view of everyone. Everyone was frightened for a while, and no one dared to challenge Song Clan's authority in the past few days.

But we still can't take it lightly. After all, Liuyun Market also experienced a bloody storm before it successfully gained a foothold.

Song Changsheng rarely had any leisure time, so he began to practice "Five Beast Body Tempering Art" in the Garrison Manor's yard. He had been practicing this method for a long time.

So far, the three figures of earth, fire, and gold have been cultivated to Great Accomplishment Stage, which makes his body comparable to Spirit Artifact, and ordinary attacks can be completely ignored.

This surprised him and also began to look forward to what heights his body could reach after Five Elements was completed.

It's just that although he already has [Ape Heart], [Azure Dragon Scale] has not been found yet, which makes him a little anxious.

"I don't know where that guy Chihuo is now, or whether he tried his best." Song Changsheng murmured softly.

These words blended into the air and flew away with the wind, causing the red-haired old man hugging each other in a brothel far away in Qing Province to suddenly shiver, and couldn't help but hug the nephrite in his arms tighter...

Luoshui Riverbank, two dusty figures landed outside Market.

The old man among the two pointed at the behemoth above Market and said enviously, "That is Quasi Sky Battleship. This is probably the only one in the entire Great Qi Cultivation World. I don't know which master it was."

"Great Qi Cultivation World has the ability to build Quasi Sky Battleship and there are no more than three people in Heavenly Craftsman. With this ship here, Song Clan can thrive for at least hundreds of years." The middle-aged man sighed with emotion. Who wouldn't be jealous of such a treasure?

"To actually bring such valuable treasures here, it seems that Song Clan attaches great importance to this auction."

"The more we pay attention to it, the more reassuring and expectant it becomes. Many comrades have already arrived, Fellow Daoist Qi, we can't lag behind others."

"Hahaha, that's exactly what it is."

After being tested at the entrance, the two entered Market and found that it was slightly different from what they imagined.

Originally they thought that the newly built Market would be very desolate, but they did not expect that although the Little Fifth was well-equipped with all kinds of shops, there were even a large number of Rogue Cultivator setting up street stalls, making it look like a thriving place.

At this moment, a burst of fire suddenly shot up into the sky, and a Black Robe Person whose face could not be seen clearly in the fire rushed straight towards the Sky Battleship in the air.

"Someone wants to snatch Sky Battleship?" The middle-aged man was shocked. Who is so bold?

Market Everyone's eyes were focused on that figure, and they were either shocked, expecting, or... ready to make a move.

"Presumptuous!"

A thunderous roar came out.

I saw a large golden net appearing out of thin air above Market, covering the entire Market.

The figure in the fire was caught off guard and bounced back directly. The fire surrounding him shattered, revealing Black Robe Person's true face, which looked very old.

"Shua"

At the same time, an emerald green rope spread out from somewhere in Market and wrapped directly around the old man falling in mid-air.

The old man felt something in his heart, and his body suddenly became dim, and finally disappeared, leaving the rope empty.

After revealing his figure again, he was already a hundred feet away.

"What a brilliant Movement Technique." The old man surnamed Qi secretly exclaimed. He didn't find any flaw at all.

The face of the old man in black robe was full of surprise. He was already fast enough, but he didn't expect that the other party would react faster. He couldn't even hit him. Now he had to think about how to escape.

Suddenly, the rope suddenly appeared above his head.

The old man was startled and wanted to repeat his old trick, but was shocked to find that he couldn't move, as if he was imprisoned in the air by an invisible force.

He struggled hard, and a large golden net appeared on his body, exactly like the one in the sky, wrapping him tightly, making him unable to move.

Since the old man dared to stroke the tiger's beard, he naturally had something to rely on. His thoughts moved slightly, and an invisible ripple emanated from the bronze ring on his finger.

The large net wrapped around him shattered inch by inch.

But before he could feel joy, the rope above his head rushed down and entangled him again. The moment he was entangled, he felt that there was an invisible shackle imprisoning the Spiritual Power in his body.

Not only that, the rope was like a greedy poisonous snake, constantly sucking the life out of his body.

Unable to use any Spiritual Power, he fell straight down.

There was already a team of monks in black uniforms and Song Clan Emblem waiting for him below.

As soon as the old man fell to the ground, these monks swarmed up, held him up, and knelt down in shame facing the direction of the Garrison Manor.

From the beginning to the end of the battle, it was just a flash of lightning. Many monks have not yet reacted, and one Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator has already collapsed.

What shocked everyone the most was that they did not see who the old man's opponent was during the whole fight. Such a method was difficult for even the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment monks present to ask themselves.

At this time, Song Clan Law Enforcement Disciple, who was escorting the old man, respectfully handed over his hands and said loudly, "Please Young Clan Head make the final decision!"

His only response was a single word. "Behead!"

After the words fell, in everyone's shocked eyes, Law Enforcement Disciple raised the long sword in his hand high. The sword flashed, blood spurted out, and the old man's good head fell to the ground.

It is estimated that the old man never thought before that that he would die at the hands of a little Qi Condensation Cultivator.

Things are impermanent.

"Is that person just now Song Clan Young Clan Head Song Changsheng who became famous in the first battle? Has he grown to this extent in just a few years? It's really shocking." The old man surnamed Qi stared at Law Enforcement Disciple as he dragged the body away. It felt like he was living in a dream. How old is that guy?

The middle-aged monk nodded and said with emotion, "Apart from Clan Head Song, Song Clan is probably the only one who can do this. This person will be great in the future!"

Song Changsheng used thunderous means to suppress a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator, which shocked all the monks in Market. Some of the monks who originally had ulterior motives were frightened out of their wits after seeing this scene, and quickly put away their little thoughts...

Inside the Garrison Manor, Song Changsheng, who had just sentenced a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to death, looked at the Storage Bag and ring that Law Enforcement Disciple presented to him, and his heart was filled with curiosity.

Just now, the opponent was clearly trapped by him using a large formation to activate Spirit Artifact [Heavenly Net]. As a result, at the critical moment, a mysterious force rescued him. He was very curious about the source of this force.

Thinking about it, he turned his attention to the bronze ring, picked it up and saw that it was actually a Mid-Grade Spirit Artifact, and it was also made of the rare [Heavenly Star Copper].

Among Rogue Cultivator, those who can own Spirit Artifact are all famous people. This person's identity should be found out soon, but Song Changsheng doesn't care.

Compared with this, he was more curious about how this ring broke the shackles of [Heavenly Net]...
