"Find a few immortals to go out and search. Let me know once they find him. I still have some preparations to make and need to see whether there's a way to win him over," I said.
"Finding someone is easy enough, but I'm afraid we might not necessarily be able to recruit him. How about I also ask around while I'm at it and see whether anyone from another Household would be willing to hold the fort for a while? If money isn't an issue, it should probably work out," Fu Yu suggested.
"Excellent. I'll leave the Heavenly Pavilion's external relations to you. After all, that's your strong suit." I smiled. Fu Yu was naturally delighted and immediately agreed. Of course, he also asked about the arrangements for our other senior brothers and fellow disciples.
I had long since been planning to bring these people in, so I arranged for them to work in the Heavenly Pavilion one by one. Besides immortal crystals, their wages would also include Earth Immortal Fruits from the black market, and even cultivation materials would be provided in full. As for the dozens of fruits Fu Cang Mountain produced each year, they looked tempting at first glance, but in reality, they were still inferior to the amount the Heavenly Pavilion purchased from the black market in just a few days.
Immortal crystals were imported goods. Not only could they accelerate cultivation, but they also contained a certain amount of spiritual energy. Combined with Earth Immortal Fruits, they were highly effective. That was why many mountain forces would bring out Earth Immortal Fruits in exchange for immortal crystals. As a result, the Heavenly Pavilion was not short of Earth Immortal Fruits at all.
The black market was also excellent at keeping the origins of goods
