Chapter 1142: Chapter 399: Business Association Convoy, Lu Family Pillar of Support!_2

These family forces will definitely not say anything overtly, maintaining harmony, as everyone earns money together.

But in secret, they can’t wait for Bi Lake Mountain to die off, and will not sit idly by as it continues to develop, surely causing trouble behind the scenes.

Especially the other commerce chambers in the Qingyun Region!

Not to mention, led by Jinlong Ridge Jin Family, the Dragon Light Commerce Chamber would definitely not want to see a commerce chamber established on their own.

Once the family’s trading caravan starts operating, they will continuously target and even disguise as robber cultivators to harass!

“Um, so facing this problem, what do you plan to do?”

Lu Changsheng asked with a smile.

He was naturally aware of this issue.

Initially, he did not allow the family to expand the business, considering this very reason, thinking that earning this piece of money was too dangerous.

But times change.

Now his children have grown up and are capable of standing on their own.

Establishing a commerce chamber can provide more opportunities for the children to gain experience.

And from Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment, he as a father could still arrange things properly.

After Foundation Establishment, it would be up to the children to strive hard.

Of course, another reason is that as the children’s cultivation levels enhance and the population increases, family expenses also become somewhat unsustainable, necessitating an increase in income.

“Of course we fight. This is an issue every caravan will encounter, we can only rely on actual strength to forge a path and establish a renowned name for our family’s commerce chamber!”

Lu Ruyi’s eyes gleamed with a heroic spirit as she spoke coldly.

Although at the Foundation Establishment Stage, most family forces are concerned about face and won’t act too egregiously.

But when it comes to interests, face counts for nothing, strength is what talks.

As long as we make it through the first trading journey with solid strength, these forces will gradually recognize us.

The main dangers afterwards are demon beasts, robber cultivators, and other unexpected situations.

“Um, such conflicts are inevitable, but along the way, we can also gradually build good relations with other family forces for mutual benefits.”

Lu Qingsong said.

“Ha ha.”

Lu Changsheng, observing his daughter brimming with fighter spirit, felt somewhat amused.

Among the children in the home, this daughter has the weakest combat prowess.

Certainly, relying on Lu Ruyi to lead the team would not work.

However, he was very satisfied with his daughter’s spirit and courage.

“Okay, since it’s inevitable, let’s proceed this way. Our family will not initiate troubles, but we are not afraid of trouble either.”

“But for the first trading journey after the formation of the caravan, let your eldest brother and Jiuyou lead the team.”

Lu Changsheng said aloud.

In terms of the commerce chamber, as the family patriarch, he definitely could not intervene personally.

If he came forward, it would probably provoke more targeting by other forces.

Moreover, he established the commerce chamber to give the children experience.

If he handled everything personally, the commerce chamber would have no meaning.

But having his daughter Lu Ruyi lead, he definitely was not at ease.

After deliberation, only his son Lu Ping’an could lead and maintain control.

Lu Ping’an is kind-hearted and stable, capable of using reason to prevail over others on this journey.

Additionally, using this opportunity, his son Lu Ping’an can gradually enter the public eye, becoming a new pillar for Bi Lake Mountain.

After all, Bi Lake Mountain cannot be supported by him alone forever.

Now that the children have grown up, he and Lu Miaoge can also gradually fade from the public eye.

“Elder brother.”

When Lu Ruyi heard this, she pursed her lips, initially thinking her father would assign this task to her.

But she also understood that her current combat prowess was somewhat lacking.

Her elder brother, Lu Ping’an, had been able to defeat a Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment Patriarch from the Tao Family in his early years, far beyond herself.

“If elder brother leads the charge, this trading journey is almost certain to be very stable!”

Lu Qingsong immediately said.

He was aware of his elder brother Lu Ping’an’s combat prowess.

Previously, he thought about asking his brother to lead the first trading journey, to establish a path and create a formidable reputation for the Bi Lake Mountain family commerce chamber.

After all, Bi Lake Mountain’s current reputation was entirely fought for by his father and aunt.

Under such circumstances, other family forces would not cause trouble to Bi Lake Mountain.

But to establish a commerce chamber and step beyond Bi Lake Mountain, to let other forces esteem them, sufficient strength was required!

And in his view, his elder brother Lu Ping’an was the perfect candidate.

However, he also regretted that his brother Lu Qingshan was not at home.

Though he had always found his elder brother’s arrogant demeanor annoying in his youth.

But he had to admit, his brother truly was a prodigious talent.

If he was present, the family would have another top-tier combatant!

“Alright, since this is the plan, let’s handle the commerce chamber this way.”

“The specific details will be handled by you two in cooperation with Xingyang, then see who in the family wants to join the commerce chamber, the caravan, and draft a charter, regulations.”

Lu Changsheng slightly straightened his posture and said aloud.

“Yes, father!”

Both responded with a bow.

“Qingsong, you can also let go of the White Tiger Mountain family affairs appropriately, focus mainly on Foundation Establishment, and strive to break through sooner, so your mother and I don’t need to worry.”

Lu Changsheng glanced at his son’s cultivation status and said.

“Thank you for your concern, father! I will certainly strive to advance to Foundation Establishment as soon as possible.”

Lu Qingsong responded with a fist salute.

“Father, what will our family commerce chamber be called?”

At this moment, Lu Ruyi asked Lu Changsheng.

“Um, let’s call it… the Ping’an Commerce Chamber.”

Lu Changsheng answered, stroking his chin.

In his view, the meaning of ‘Ping’an’ (peace) is good, echoing the name of his eldest son Ping’an.

His first spiritual talisman shop was called Peace Talisman Hall, and now the commerce chamber would also be called the Ping’an Commerce Chamber.

“…”

Lu Ruyi and Lu Qingsong twitched their lips upon hearing the name.

They felt that their father really favored this name.

Their elder brother’s name was Lu Ping’an, and now the commerce chamber would also be named after this concept.
