The Hidden Demon Lord, the Empress brought her baby to the door and begged for responsibility.

A few days later, snow

fell and snowflakes drifted in the south of the city.

After a few days of stopping, the sky began to fall again.

The south of the city is peaceful and tranquil, and the streets are more lively and noisy than ever.

Just because it won't be long before it arrives again in the annual Ruixue Mega Year, a festival to welcome the New Year.

Every household on the street began to be busy buying New Year's goods, and the windows of the houses around the street began to paste New Year's paper-cut window grilles.

Bright red lanterns are hung high and decorate the streets and alleys.

The streets are full of stalls selling New Year's goods.

Even the monks who have been living in the capital of Nanli City can't help but be infected by the festive atmosphere of the mortal world.

The whole city of Nanli is filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Among them, only the Jiang family's mansion was lifeless, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

A few days ago, the Qi family suddenly began to buy all kinds of immortal herbs and elixirs in the city, and they purchased them at extremely high prices.

Among the immortal herb elixirs purchased, there were many medicinal materials that were completely worthless and had no effect.

Many monks and pharmacists basically sold all the medicinal materials in their hands to the Qi family at a high price.

Jiang Zhen's keen business sense sensed the unusualness of the Qi family's large-scale purchase of the immortal herb elixir.

He found many monks who were refining pills overnight to study the medicinal materials purchased by the Qi family, but he couldn't figure out what new pills the Qi family was going to develop.

It's no wonder that the Jiang family couldn't study it.

Ning Yechen's formula for the Qi family's Immortal Refining Pill was developed by himself, and there was no record in the world at all.

And Qi Rongchang of the Qi family is also very shrewd.

He knew that the Jiang family would definitely be aware of it, and the medicinal materials that he had purchased on a large scale were mixed with a lot of immortal herb elixirs that were not in the formula at all.

Even if the Jiang family studies for a lifetime, it is impossible to study it.

At this time, in the Jiang family's mansion, Jiang Zhen was sitting in the lobby, his brows were tightly locked, his hand was touching his forehead, and he looked tired.

With the Treasure Chamber of Commerce as a witness, he simply didn't dare not hand over the jurisdiction of the streets in the southern city capital to the Qi family.

After the Qi family obtained the jurisdiction of the various streets, they immediately began to vigorously suppress the business

of his Jiang family! Many of the chambers of commerce under his command had already turned into the arms of

the Qi family! In order to cope with the suppression of the Qi family, he had been busy in recent days.

Except for a few stewards in the family, and his younger brother Jiang Ming, no one else is of any use at all

! In particular, his son Jiang Li has only known his amorous nature since the beginning, and he has no talent at all in business

! Now that his lower body is abolished, he only knows how to hide at home every day to lose his temper and smash things, and he is not at all motivated

! If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Li was his only son of Jiang Zhen, he would have been eager to drive him out of the Jiang family!

The mysterious person who shot at Jiang Li and killed Jiang Gan has not been found so far...

The Jiang family didn't know when they provoked such a character, and they didn't know if the other party would attack him again...

After Chen Rou's death, Jiang Zhen and the rest of the Jiang family lived in fear.

I'm afraid that the next Jiang Li or Jiang Gan will be them...

This kind of mental torture made everyone in the Jiang family physically and mentally exhausted.

Before one thing was dealt with, there was one more thing pressing on his body, and Jiang Zhen only felt troubled and headaches.

"Big brother.

At this moment, Jiang Ming walked into the lobby and greeted Jiang Zhen.

During this time, he had been in charge of recruiting alchemists in the Jiang family, studying the Qi family's healing meridian spiritual liquid and the immortal herbs he had acquired.

At the same time, he has been responsible for tracking down who killed his son Jiang Gan.

Seeing Jiang Ming come in, Jiang Zhen looked forward to

it, and hurriedly asked, "How are you here

?" "Can you crack the Qi family's Danfang?"

Jiang Ming shook his head slowly, and said very regretfully:

"No..."

"

I've already found more than a dozen alchemists to study together, but I still can't know the pill recipe in the hands of the Qi family..."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhen leaned back in his chair in disappointment, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.

"Since there is no result, then why are you coming to me?"

"The Qi family sent someone here again...""

It was said that they wanted to buy those immortal herb elixirs in the hands of my Jiang family at a price ten times higher than the market price.

Jiang Ming stepped forward, took out the list of medicinal materials listed by the Qi family from his arms, and handed it to Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen didn't even look at it, snatched the list and tore it to shreds, and roared angrily

: "Let the people of

the Qi family go!" "Otherwise, I will cut off his head and send it back

to the Qi family!" "My Jiang family will never sell the medicinal materials to the Qi family even if they are all rotten in the warehouse!"

Jiang Ming stood aside and pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and persuaded:

"Big brother, why don't you raise the price a little bit and sell all those medicinal materials to the Qi family?"

"You want me to sell those medicinal materials to the Qi family?"

Jiang Zhen asked with an angry look at Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming nodded, and said with a serious expression:

"Big brother, you also know, we are in debt now..."

Now that the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce is in control of the lifeblood of the Nanli City Capital Chamber of Commerce, his Jiang family can't do it like before to frantically lower the price of the materials needed for the Fire Lotus Liquid.

The cost of refining Fire Lotus Liquid has increased greatly, and they have many fewer sales channels.

A few days ago, a large amount of materials for fire lotus liquid were ordered from various other places, and a part of the debt was repaid every month in the form of credit installments.

I also have to pay a huge amount of spirit stones to the Holy Lotus Sect every month...

The Jiang family seems to be very wealthy, but the flow of funds is very large, and there are not many funds kept in their hands at all.

Suppressed by the Qijia Chamber of Commerce, next month's funds are no longer enough to repay the debts left over from the past....

If the chambers of commerce fail to pay their debts on time, their credibility will suffer.

Once his reputation is affected, it will be difficult to cooperate with other chambers of commerce in the future!

Jiang Zhen also understood this, and only then did he feel more and more headaches.

originally thought that the Chamber of Commerce would win the Jiang family, so he purchased a large number of fire lotus liquid materials, and did not hesitate to installment on credit.

As long as they win the chamber of commerce competition, the Jiang family will control the chambers of commerce and shops in the entire southern city capital, and the gap in funds owed can be quickly filled.

But I never expected to lose...

This has caused the Jiang family to be in such an embarrassing situation now.

"Well, tell me what you're going to do.

"Since you asked me to sell those medicinal herbs, you must have a plan, right?"

Jiang Zhen sighed lightly, looked at Jiang Ming and asked.

His younger brother is quite shrewd.

The Jiang family also relied on their two brothers to get to where they are today.

It's just that the sons of the two of them are too uncompetitive...

Jiang Ming smiled slightly, and said his opinion:

"Big brother, I have a plan!" "

It is very likely that the medicinal materials purchased by the Qi family were used to refine the healing spiritual liquid.

"The healing spiritual liquid does not belong to the quenching fluid, so it will basically not affect my Jiang family's business. "

We can take the opportunity to raise the price to sell the medicinal materials to the Qi family, and then step up

refining the fire lotus liquid in batches!" "When the time comes, selling this batch of fire lotus liquid at a high price will be enough to make up for the gap in my Jiang family's funds!" "At that time, this

southern city will still be the world of my Jiang family!"
