Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 656
Chapter 656: Declare War!
Just as soon as Duan He spoke, his eyes suddenly widened. He watched as the barely breathing man’s vitality started to increase.
Duan He looked at Lin Yuan and felt that he had just eaten a crow. He then went up to touch the man and realized that most of the man’s bones had regrown.
In the next instant, Duan He looked at Lin Yuan with amazement. He did not know that Lin Yuan was a healing-type spirit qi professional. Now that he knew, he was also surprised to find out how powerful Lin Yuan was.
Lin Yuan had even managed to heal such grievous injuries.
Most importantly, Lin Yuan had achieved such incredible healing effects without summoning any feys.
The man was starting to wake up, and he immediately recoiled when he saw Duan He. This led to him banging into the Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus’s branches, which caused the flowers to fall and scatter all over.
The fallen Cinnabar Sweet Osmanthus flowers’ odor pervaded the air, jolting the man’s desecrated mind.
Lin Yuan noticed this and took the opportunity to ask the befuddled man, “Did the Zheng family’s third lineage send you to spy on the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce?”
The man naturally opened his mouth and replied, “No, it was Second Young Master…”
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow in shock.
The man climbed to his feet and realized that he had misspoken. He quickly fell to his knees and started to plead, “I’ll tell you whatever you want to know. I’m willing to reveal all my secrets in exchange for sparing my life.”
Lin Yuan coldly sneered. “The Zheng family’s main lineage wouldn’t send out a spy who can divulge their secrets. Since you’ve regained your life and now understand how precious it is, I’m sure you know that you need to face the consequences of killing all those Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce employees yesterday.”
Lin Yuan turned away from the kneeling man and said to Duan He, “Senior Duan He, since you’re the one who brought him here, you can decide what to do with him.”
When he was done speaking, Lin Yuan went back into the mansion.
Genius nudged Lin Yuan’s hand with its head as it wagged its tail.
In Genius’s book, Lin Yuan never looked cooler than he did now.
However, Lin Yuan’s perspective started to shift again.
When Lin Yuan had been training in the Class 3 abyss dimensional rift, he showed no mercy to those that were trying to kill him.
The ones that had tried to kill him had been buried under a mountain of sand.
Now, Lin Yuan had established a faction, and he was no longer the person he was before. He could no longer approach a situation based on his individual point of view.
Sky City supported the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce. Thus, every Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce member, even the lowest ranking employees, was affiliated with Sky City.
The Zheng family’s spy had killed close to ten Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce employees. This heinous act steeled Lin Yuan’s heart.
Lin Yuan knew that in an avalanche, every tiny snowflake played its part.
Now, two separate circles appeared in Lin Yuan’s mind.
The circles represented the enemy and himself.
With this in mind, Lin Yuan felt that he had been too soft-hearted when it came to the matters concerning the Zheng family.
Lin Yuan turned to Duan He and said, “Senior Duan He, the Zheng family’s territory, is Indigo Azure City. They shouldn’t be allowed to run free in the Royal Capital.”
Duan He immediately read between the lines and said assuredly, “Young Master, don’t worry and leave it to me. After tonight, there will no longer be any trace of the Zheng family in the Royal Capital.”
Liu Jie walked up to Lin Yuan and said, “Lin Yuan, we’ve already sowed the seeds of discord between the Zheng family and us. During the upcoming dimensional rift active period, they won’t be making any big moves. However, they will definitely be up to shady tricks. Since Listen needs luxury resources to expand the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce’s luxury goods trading routes, we can consider using the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce to declare war on the Zheng family.”
Although Liu Jie had never joined any faction previously, he was a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. He was well aware of the brutal inter-faction battles that took place.
Liu Jie felt that since they needed to strike, they should make the first move in order to secure the advantage.
Lin Yuan had no shortage of luxury resources and materials. Meanwhile, Hu Quan could handle the crafting production.
The Radiance Federation was a central market where luxury goods were sure to pass through.
Although the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce presently could not hold a candle to the Zheng family, they could win by dominating raw materials, working harder, and using the market.
Liu Jie thought back to when they were organizing the mansion. He had seen the five of six boxes of jade-textured wood pieces in the storeroom and thought, If the Zheng family tries to rely on their status as a veteran faction to start a price war with the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce, they will definitely run out of resources first.
These boxes full of jade-textured wood pieces were kept in the storeroom like rubbish.
The more Hu Quan crafted using the new jade-textured wood, the more pieces he generated.
Lin Yuan nodded and said, “We can arrange for Listen to declare war on the Zheng family. However, Uncle Hu will not be able to cope with the workload with just 30 Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen.”
Lin Yuan started to analyze to himself, Judging by the current progress, I’ll need even more Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen. The Return to Faraway Mansion, Master Hong Shen’s basement quarters, the other bases around the mansion, the man-made lake, the base on the other side of the Space Tunnel, and most importantly, Sky City’s main city on the Floating Island Whale will need a sea of Spirit Craftsmen to work on them.
Moreover, in order for the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce to solidify their stock of luxury resources, they’ll need a team of Spirit Craftsmen to continuously craft for them. I need to bring this issue up with Hu Quan so he can use his title as a Class 5 Spirit Craftsman to recruit and attract more Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen from around the 32 cities in the Radiance Federation.
