From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 48 East China Sea Ordering Conference (Part )

They slept silently all night until dawn. Only two people did not sleep well: Mr. Bai Qi from the Bai Mansion and Huang Wenxun, the eighth brother-in-law.

There is a saying: If it rains, it will rain; if it wants to marry, it will marry. You can't stop it, you can only let it go.

Early in the morning, Master Bai Qi rushed to the guest room in the side courtyard with two followers and met Huang Wenxun. Both of them were extremely anxious and angry.

Mr. Bai Qi is fair-skinned and not fat, with a square face, big eyes, a high nose bridge, a gentleman's beard, and he dresses like a country gentleman. His temperament is as tough as a warrior.

"Nephew, did you not sleep well last night? What did the guests from the East China Sea say?"

"Uncle, the guests should follow the host's wishes. The guests from Donghai have no objection." Huang Wenxun had no choice but to refuse. He thought about it all night and felt that this was the only way.

Bai Qi hadn't slept all night and was so angry that his back teeth were swollen. When he heard this, he was so angry that his eyes went dark and he almost fell down.

"Give me a hand."

Upon hearing this, the followers held him on both sides. After thinking about it for a long time, they could not come up with a solution. They sighed and turned away.

This matter has been carried out with great fanfare, and no one will withdraw halfway. Even if the young master of the Zhe clan comes to interfere, the Bai family cannot lose face.

The royal family cares about face. If an arm is broken, they stuff it into their sleeve; if a tooth is knocked out, they swallow it.

Then he arranged for people to go to the front yard to make arrangements. This time, the wealth and resources could be lost, but the status quo must not be lost. What's more, they had to show off their style and majesty.

"Go find my mother and ask for the beauty screen. I'll give them a good shock today."

The Beauty Screen was the dowry of Bai Qi's mother, and was also brought out from the Water Palace by Madam Wushuang. It is the secret treasure of the Beauty Jiao Lian from the Shadowless Sea of the South China Sea.

Now it has become a treasure passed down from generation to generation, especially since the Dragon King of the Shadowless Waters died tragically while enduring a calamity, and his mermaid clan was implicated and almost all of them were killed or injured.

There are very few mermaids who know how to refine beauty mermaid gauze, let alone make beauty screens. It can be said that the existing ones are all relics of the Shadowless Sea Dragon Palace.

This folding screen is more than that. The key point is that the eight beauties in the picture can be summoned by spells, and three of them are of the strength of fifth-grade demon fairies.

Now is the time to demonstrate the strength of the Bai Mansion.

The East China Sea ordering conference was held in the front yard. Several people who practiced the God of Wealth came as scheduled with visiting cards. For them, this ordering conference was a windfall.

When everyone was almost there, the Bai family came to the side yard and invited Li Zhen, Yu Shuyang and Huang Wenxun over.

Counting Master Bai Qi, there are six of them in total. It can be said that all the top goblins who practice the way of the God of Wealth have arrived in Danhuang Cave Heaven, except for the golden snake boy who practices the way of the God from the main sect of the Zhe family.

"Let me introduce him to you all. He is Mr. Li Zhen, a merchant from the East China Sea. He is here on behalf of the Twelve Princes of the East China Sea and Chaoju City to seek cooperation with you all." Bai Qi stood up and introduced the other five people.

"This is the fur merchant from Dongfang City, everyone calls him Dongcai, and this is the porcelain merchant from Yanyan City, everyone calls him Cishe."

As soon as Bai Qi finished speaking, several people laughed out loud. The one called Magnetic Snake was not angry, but rather complacent.

As the saying goes, the miser, the bronze crane, the glass mouse, and the glazed cat are all very stingy. What's even more amazing is the magnetic snake, which is not only stingy but also sucks things away.

"This is the silk tycoon from Xiliang City, everyone calls him Lao Xi, and this is the head of the oil business in Tongcheng, everyone calls him the Big Manager.

Finally, this amazing lady, Aunt Xue from Tea City, has arrived. We'll all enjoy some of this year's new tea later." Bai Qi introduced them one by one.

The two sides got to know each other, especially when Bai Qi introduced the nicknames, which was a bit humorous and made the scene quite lively.

Several people each brought out a few samples and placed them on the large table in the hall for Li Zhen to see. There were quite a few items, all pre-screened for their suitability for maritime trade. Porcelain, raw silk, tea, and tung oil were among the most sought-after commodities in East China Sea trade. Of course, furs, paper, and lacquerware were also in high demand.

Yu Shuyang was helping Li Zhen look at the goods. At this time, three or five soldiers came in, escorting a young man.

This is the Golden Snake Boy from the Zhe clan. He is an alien in Danhuang Cave Heaven. He does not practice immortal arts or refine blood inheritance, but practices Shinto incense magic.

"Are you all here?"

The Golden Snake Boy looks very adorable. His facial features and clothing are modeled after the Golden Boy in the temple.

It was obvious that except for Yu Shuyang and Li Zhen, everyone else subconsciously avoided them, including my brother-in-law Huang Wenxun.

The practice of the incense god is similar to the merchants who practice the god of wealth. Both require cultivation resources, especially the Golden Snake Boy who also practices the incense god of wealth.

These big businessmen have always been the fat pieces of meat in the eyes of the Golden Snake Boy. He would try to recruit them into his group whenever he got the chance, and usually everyone avoided him.

"Sixth Brother is here. How about this? I'll invite you all to the flower hall to look at some treasures first. Brother Li, you guys stay here and choose the goods first."

Bai Qi had thought of a solution. The ordering conference had to proceed normally and could not be disrupted by the Golden Snake Boy. So he would take the five merchants with him to see the treasure and separate the people.

Several merchants had already discussed it and each brought a manager to stay with Li Zhen and his two brothers. They accompanied Bai Qi to deal with the Golden Snake Boy.

"Seventh brother, what kind of tricks are you trying to pull? Is there anything in Danhuang Cave Heaven that I haven't seen?" The Golden Snake Boy said with some disdain.

In order to practice the way of wealth, he stayed in the treasury of his ancestral city for three years. He had truly seen what it was like to have a mountain of gold and a sea of money.

Moreover, he practiced the God of Wealth's Many Treasures Method, so he really had no shortage of treasures. He carried two Tiangang Forbidden Great Perfection magical instruments with him, and a large number of inferior talismans and magical instruments.

"When have we ever been in trouble? Let me tell you its name to remind you. It's the Mermaid of the Shadowless Sea." Bai Qi said teasingly.

Among the many waters in the South China Sea, only the Shadowless Sea dares to be known as the sea, not only because the Purple-Robed Dragon King of the Shadowless Sea is the uncle of the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

It was also because, in the past, the Purple-Robed Dragon King held a beauty appreciation meeting every hundred years at the Beauty Tower, a magical treasure in the Shadowless Sea.

All the beauty screens made within the past hundred years will be displayed for people to comment on, and one hundred beauty screens will be selected, while the rest will be burned on the spot.

It can be said that both the Beauty Screen and the beauty pageant were well-known back then, and few people didn’t know about them.

"Mermaid?" The Golden Snake Boy's eyes lit up when he heard it.

Ever since the Purple-Robed Dragon King failed in his calamity and died tragically, all the mermaids were killed or injured as well, and the remaining ones were mostly taken as concubines by the sons and grandsons of the South China Sea Dragon.

For example, Madam Wushuang’s grandmother, Li, was a mermaid who became a spirit. She gave birth to a son, Xiao Qinglong, with Tieyun, the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

"There's no Mermaid, but there is a Beauty Screen. Follow me to the flower hall and you'll see.

This is one of my mother's treasured dowry items, and she's usually reluctant to take it out. There aren't many of them left in circulation today."

Bai Qi took the Golden Snake Boy by one hand and half-pushed and half-coaxed him away. The living room became much quieter for a while.

Only Yu Shuyang and Li Zhen were looking at the goods, while Huang Wenxun was chatting with a few managers.

　My head is dizzy and I feel that I didn’t write it very well. Please give your comments. I read all the reviews last night. Thank you for your support.
