From a carp to a dragon god

Yu Shuyang was angry, but he wasn't stupid. That's why he led Li Zhen to do business with Liu Jinu.

Now that he has realized that Liu Huangshu's reincarnation is here, regardless of whether the Eastern Yi Emperor is behind it or not, he will eventually support the Toriyama Liu family.

Li Zhen was unaware of the intricacies involved. Relying on his familiarity with his cousin, Li Zhen instantly understood Yu Shuyang's intentions and followed suit, starting a business conversation with Liu Jinu.

He made no attempt to conceal anything and directly discussed the Dongyi people and Qingqiu Island, making it clear that he had come to help the Baiyi people.

Upon hearing this, Liu Jinu was alarmed. He went back and forth in his mind several times, but in the end he still couldn't make up his mind. However, he also knew that he couldn't make the decision on this matter.

"Taoist Master, Captain Li, this matter needs to be discussed by my father. Please wait a moment while I go and invite him over."

After saying this, Liu Jinu ran off with both hands and feet. He really didn't expect that it was actually a member of the same clan as Donghai.

Both the Dongyi tribe and the Qingqiu foxes are extremely close, so the intention behind sending a treasure ship at this time is self-evident.

Yu Shuyang laughed heartily from behind and said, "Li Zhen, have you found out anything about Wuyang Mountain these past few days?"

Li Zhen sighed with a slightly worried expression, "The Baiyi people are being exploited severely; they're all poor people. I'm afraid we'll have to lose money to do business with them!"

The Baiyi people were divided in two, separated in the Bird Mountain and the Yan Mountain. Most of the coins in Menzhou were earned by the Menzhou Chamber of Commerce, and the rest were controlled by the five hereditary cities.

To make money in Menzhou, you can't avoid the merchants and the city of Shihou. Just like Li Zhen said, if you want to make money, you can't do business with the Baiyi people.

"Menzhou is so vast, how can you say that the Baiyi people have no money to earn? Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"The world's wealth is nothing more than buying and selling. The profit from farming is ten times, the profit from rare treasures is a hundred times, but how can the profit be ten million times?" Yu Shuyang asked with a smile.

This is an anecdote from the previous life of the floating world, and also an important direction for merchants: investing in the monarch to profit millions of times over.

Li Zhen was stunned by his cousin's question. In the Middle World, the human and demon races do not interfere with each other. The human dynasty has always been a game of human clans and aristocratic families, while the demon and immortal families have never participated in it.

"The Baiyi people are going to start a war. When that happens, will Shihou City and the Chamber of Commerce still be the same as they are now?"
"If you bet on this now, how much will you profit when the Baiyi people occupy Menzhou, or even join forces with the Quanyi to attack Lingzhou?"

Yu Shuyang smiled and gave Li Zhen a few pointers. These were very simple truths, but the demon race hadn't participated in the changes of human dynasties before, so they didn't understand the tricks involved.

The fact that the Menzhou Chamber of Commerce blocked trade with the Baiyi people shows that the human dynasty understood the importance of checks and balances in business.

Li Zhen seemed to have had a glimpse into the truth, instantly understanding the core of money, wealth, goods, and business. The Yin Treasury God of Wealth was promoted to the seventh rank, rising from an eighth-rank deity incarnation.

Following Li Zhen's thoughts, the Yin Treasury God of Wealth returned to his body. At this moment, Li Zhen was completely immersed in enlightenment.

Yu Shuyang was overjoyed. He and Li Zhen both had a great tribulation to overcome and needed to accumulate strength in order to avoid failing the tribulation.

Not long after, Liu Jinu brought Liu Xianzong with him. The man and the fox were both walking in a hurry.

"Master Yu, Captain Li, greetings. I heard from my son that you two..." Liu Xianzong was full of anticipation and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Yu Shuyang stepped forward to stop him. Li Zhen was still savoring his insights and wouldn't be able to come to his senses for a while.

"Clan Chief Liu, please don't get agitated. We've come to help you, but the situation in Menzhou is unstable right now, and we still need your help with some things!"

Just like this time, as we came all the way from the East China Sea, the Chamber of Commerce came knocking on our door as soon as our treasure ship arrived in Yongming City.

Fortunately, I used the Qiankun Longsnake Bag to repackage the goods; otherwise, they would have bought them all!

Yu Shuyang, mindful of the connection between Heaven and Earth, dared not reveal the Eastern Yi Emperor's plan, and could only try to steer Liu Xianzong away with something else. Upon hearing this, the White Fox Liu Jinu was instantly enraged, gritting his teeth and cursing, "You scoundrels from the Merchant Guild! You've gone too far!"

Liu Xianzong's face also darkened. He was much more composed than Liu Jinu and did not join in the cursing.

"Master Yu, you've come from the Eastern Yi, haven't you? Have you ever met the Great Emperor?" Liu Xianzong asked with a solemn expression.

Yu Shuyang nodded, not wanting to say anything more.

Upon seeing this, Liu Xianzong was instantly moved to tears, his emotions overwhelming him. It took him quite a while to finally stop sobbing.

"The great thing is about to be accomplished! The great thing is about to be accomplished! Ji Nu, go and bring Hong Ge'er here!" Liu Xianzong hurriedly ordered.

Liu Jinu was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and was then urged to go to the inner quarters.

Three years ago, my wife gave birth to a son, my youngest son Hong Ge'er. He was born with extraordinary signs, and was accompanied by the luck of the Bihu dragon!
In fact, the reason Liu traveled south to learn the art of dragon taming was to preserve the dragon's fortune.

Unfortunately, the dynasty established by the Murong clan did not last three generations before it fell apart. It was only thanks to the national fortune brought by the nine-tailed fox that it was able to stay in power and not completely die out.

The Murong clan of Yanshan and the Liu clan of Niaoshan have always been isolated. The Central Plains Dynasty was wary of the remaining Bihu Longyun and feared that the Baiyi people would establish a new kingdom.

Fortunately, we all gritted our teeth and persevered. Even though we were being courted and divided, the clansmen didn't reveal a single piece of information about Hong-ge'er.

When Liu Xianzong spoke of this, he was filled with resentment and gritted teeth. Over the years, he had been suppressed by the Chamber of Commerce and his city of Shihou had been divided and disintegrated. He had been harboring a deep-seated rage.

The Central Plains Dynasty was wary of the Baiyi people and did not know where the remaining dragon fortune lay. That's why they enfeoffed hereditary marquis cities to wear down the Baiyi people's luck.

Not long after, a boy rode on the back of a white fox and was carried over by Liu Jinu.

Even without using his divine eye, Yu Shuyang could sense the dragon nature of the Great Dragon God, which was attached to the fortune of a dragon vein.

This makes the boy's forehead bulge at both ends, as if horns are about to grow on his head, which can be described as a prominent and outstanding appearance. This is similar to Yu Shuyang's celestial appearance, which is called the appearance of an emperor and dragon.

Yu Shuyang picked up Liu Hong with one hand. Bihu Longyun seemed to recognize him and rubbed against Yu Shuyang, causing the three Yin Virtue Golden Lotuses in his mind to sway wildly.

"Chief Liu, I won't hide it from you anymore. This time, in addition to bringing grain from the East Sea, I've also prepared armor and weapons."

As Yu Shuyang spoke, he took out a thunder-patterned fire-tipped spear, a spider silk soft armor, and a golden gourd pot from the long snake bag.

He explained the functions of the three weapons one by one, and then gave them to Liu Xianzong so that he could personally experience their power.

The three humane weapons worked together. When the Thunder-Patterned Fire Tip was swung, lightning and fire flashed on the spearhead. The lightning and fire burned brighter and brighter with each swing, which was due to the golden fire in the Golden Melon Pot assisting in the action.

Liu Xianzong hadn't wielded the weapons for long before he realized how powerful they were. These three weapons didn't require any magical power; they relied entirely on his blood and courage.

"Master Yu, how many of these treasures do you have?" Liu Xianzong disregarded etiquette and asked with a wide grin.

Yu Shuyang shook the long snake bag and threw out all the human weapons, tens of thousands of spears, which piled up like a small mountain.

"Clan Chief Liu, everything is here. You can decide what to do with it!"

After Yu Shuyang finished speaking, he clearly felt that Bihu Longyun had been awakened by the stimulation.
