The next morning, someone knocked on the door.

It was Yuan Xiaoyue.

“Big Brother Luo, this is the income for this month, a total of six hundred and twenty lower-grade spirit stones,” she said.

Luo Chen blinked as he watched the young girl take out a pile of Spirit Stones from her storage bag.

“Did your Grandfather give you his storage bag?”

Yuan Xiaoyue gently stroked the storage bag and nodded.

This was not just a simple storage bag.

It was also her father's legacy.

Before Yue Jianhu's death, this storage bag was used by him.

Before departing for the death duel at the Dao Debate Platform, Yue Jianhu left his storage bag with Old Man Yuan, never expecting that he wouldn't return.

Only the elderly and the young, both frail and disabled, were left behind. “Grandfather says now that my business has grown, and I'm handling a lot of items and spirit stones, having a storage bag is more convenient,” Yuan Xiaoyue said.

Only in the comparatively safe Inner City would a child at the second level of Qi refinement dare to use a storage bag.

Luo Chen begrudged for a moment. When he traversed here, why didn't he have such a legacy?

He lightly touched the spirit stones and calculated their accounts based on pricing.

He originally invested two hundred spirit stones, half were used to produce Immortal Beans and popcorn, and half were used to purchase pineapple wine.

Now that he had received over six hundred, the profit was quite considerable.

The pity was that there was only one Dao Debate Platform in the Great River District, otherwise his business could have expanded considerably.

Upon calculation, there was not much of a discrepancy.

Luo Chen was not concerned about the Yuan Family cheating him.

Firstly, this small business was his whim, undertaken casually.

Secondly, the reputation of the Yuan Family was well known. When he personally delivered a worthless wheelchair, Old Man Yuan gifted him a hundred-year-old green gourd without hesitation.

Thirdly –

Luo Chen looked at the young girl and couldn't help but smirk.

He bought a good reputation this time.

By taking care of the disabled and young girl, he had accumulated quite a reputation within the Broken Mountain Gang.

The support he received from Long Panhu and the Mining Hall Master was partly due to this factor.

After collecting most of the spirit stones into his storage bag, Luo Chen handed Yuan Xiaoyue thirty lower-grade spirit stones.

“Here, this is your wage for last month.”

Yuan Xiaoyue carefully put the spirit stones into the storage bag, her soft face burst out with a look of excitement.

These were the first spirit stones she earned through her hard work.

Finally, she was no longer a child who had to rely on her father and grandfather!

Seeing the excited girl, Luo Chen couldn't resist stroking her smooth hair.

“Keep up the good work, I will give you a raise in the future! Your Big Brother Luo is not an unscrupulous boss.”

“Okay!”

“Oh, there are snacks that I made in the room. Take them with you, enough for your sales next month.”

“Okay, I'll go get them!”

Luo Chen watched the young girl rush excitedly into the room and gather the piles of Immortal Beans, beef jerky, and popcorn into her storage bag.

Luo Chen couldn't help but smile.

In fact, this small business was quite good.

While the profit was not large, as there was only one Dao Debate Platform, earning a few hundred extra spirit stones per month was surely a welcome addition for anyone.

“Only if I get busier in the future, I'm afraid I won't have time to make these snacks.”

Luo Chen rubbed his chin, wondering how to arrange this matter.

He surely couldn't let this young girl from the Yuan family, who had just tasted her first success, become unemployed, could he?

With these thoughts in mind, Luo Chen left the Inner City.

Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang were already waiting for him at the city gate.

Seeing the two, Luo Chen smirked.

I, Xiao Luo, also have bodyguards to escort me to and from work!

“Hall Master Luo, are we going to Crescent Valley?”

“No, today we're going to Lancang Wharf!”

Zhou Yuanli looked worried. “But that's the territory of the Great Lake Gang.” “Isn't it our territory as well?” Luo Chen retorted.

After saying that, he stimulated his Cloud-Stepping Boots and leisurely flew towards Lancang Wharf, leaving the other two guys behind.

The two glanced at each other and quickly followed him.

Lancang Wharf is the largest wharf facing the exterior of the Great River District.

This place connects the Great River District internally and the Lancang River externally, serving as an important hub for transportation between southern and northern regions.

For some large spirit materials, which are not convenient to transport using storage bags, they are almost all transported by water.

After all, we surely can't watch a cultivator carrying a thousand-meter-long piece of wood or a tens of meters thick iron ore vein, flying thousands of miles, can we!

Because of this, the benefits involved in Lancang Wharf are extremely huge.

Even in the nearby area, a small town-sized business district has developed.

And the dominant force here is indeed the Great Lake Gang.

Of course, now the Broken Mountain Gang also has a foothold in this area.

After the death duel at the Dao Debate Platform, the Broken Mountain Gang forced itself into this water transportation business.

After sending a greeting to Wang Yuan, who was stationed here, Luo Chen and his two bodyguards happily flew towards the wharf.

Ten or more large ships anchored in the dock.

Many cultivators at different stages were going in and out busy either moving goods or receiving guests along their path.

Some shouted loudly, recommending various cultivation resources to those loose cultivators who had just arrived in the Great River District.

Luo Chen seemed very interested and eventually arrived at his destination.

Next to a large ship marked with the letter 'A2'.

Tens of cultivators are constantly moving goods onto the ship.

There's even a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator onboard, constantly checking the number of goods, fearing to miss anything.

“These are Spirit Materials that we are bringing back to Shen Fu Sect. They have been collected by Shen Fu Pavilion over the past ten years. The quantity is enormous, so they must be transported via water. It will take several years to send everything back to the sect.”

Before he knew it, Xiu Xiu had come over to Luo Chen.

Luo Chen was incredibly curious, “Does the Great Lake Gang have such power to cross the Yu Ding Realm and deliver goods to the Shen Fu Realm?”

“Of course they don't. They only deliver it to the nearby Taishan District. From there, stronger caravans would assist us in the transportation.” Xiu Xiu replied with a slight smile.

Luo Chen came to a realization.

That makes sense, the Great Lake Gang is just a small faction with only one Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator.

They could not possibly handle logistics across numerous domains.

“Sister Xiu Xiu, wait a moment, please!”

Luo Chen took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and quickly activated it.

The Sound Transmission Talisman wobbled as it flew up to the large ship.

The Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator from Shen Fu Pavilion glanced at it and paid no further attention.

Soon, two figures appeared on the ship's deck.

After scanning their surroundings, they waved in Luo Chen's direction.

“Come down!” Luo Chen yelled.

Upon hearing the yell, in no time at all, Elder Chen and his granddaughter Xiao Shuyi ran down to him.

“Friend Xiao Luo, you really came to see us off!”

“Big brother Luo, did you bring me any beef jerky?”

Luo Chen ruffled Xiao Shuyi's hair and handed her a small parcel. Then, turning to Xiu Xiu, he said, “Sister Xiu Xiu, this is my good friend, Chen Xiuping. He is also on his way to the Shen Fu Realm to send his granddaughter Chen Shuyi to participate in the entry trial next year.”

“If you could, I would appreciate it if you could look after them.”

“Of course, only if it is within your capabilities, if you have any concerns, don't bother.”

He spoke earnestly and sincerely.

Xiu Xiu glanced at the old man and the girl before her, pondered for a moment, and gently nodded her agreement.

“Once in the Shen Fu Realm, we would be fellow townspeople. We naturally should look after each other.”

Chen Xiuping looked taken aback.

However, under Luo Chen's guidance, Xiao Shuyi started to sweetly call Xiu Xiu 'Sister'.

The two sides also got to know each other through Luo Chen's introduction.

After learning that the pair would be staying at the bottom of the flying boat, Xiu Xiu suggested Xiao Shuyi stay with her instead.

Elder Chen naturally did not object and immediately instructed Xiao Shuyi to move her luggage.

Watching the two of them board the ship, Luo Chen sighed.

After saying goodbye today, who knows if we'll have the chance to meet again in this lifetime.

“Luo Chen, does that young girl really have the chance to become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator of Shen Fu Sect?”

“What young girl? Sister Xiu Xiu might look young, but she's not much younger than you.”

Xiu Xiu's age was not a secret.

This could be discerned from her usual interactions with Mr. and Mrs. Qin Liangchen.

She only looks young due to a youth-preserving technique, but she must actually be in her fifties.

Chen Xiuping is only sixty-five; it's hard to call her a young girl.

Luo Chen thought for a while, then said earnestly, “Sister Xiu Xiu had previously attempted to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, but failed. Although Shen Fu Sect has given her another chance this time, success is not guaranteed.”

“If she fails, she'll be alone there, and I'm afraid she'll be very lonely.”

“Although I don't know Xiao Shuyi very well, I can tell that she's a smart and lively child. Coupled with your many years of guidance, she has a great chance of joining Shen Fu Sect.”

“If Sister Xiu Xiu really fails, and Xiao Shuyi successfully joins Shen Fu Sect, you should ask Xiao Shuyi to take care of her.”

Elder Chen listened carefully, nodding occasionally..

In the end, he said earnestly, “We all came from The Great River District, we should naturally look after each other.”

Luo Chen gave a slight smile.

“I knew that you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, little old man. I won't say much about wishing you a smooth journey, you should get onboard!”

The loading of goods on the large ship had come to an end.

On the vast ship's deck, the small flying boat began to flash with Spirit Light.

Transporting over the waterways were only those bulky Spirit Materials. While they, the people, would ride on the flying boat to quickly get back to the Shen Fu Realm.

“I'm off then!”

Luo Chen waved and was about to turn and leave.

However, just as he was about to go, Elder Chen stopped him.

“Take this!”

Elder Chen thrust a piece of gauze into Luo Chen's hands, then ran onto the ship as if he had just made a losing deal.

Luo Chen looked at the gauze, somewhat confused.

“Bigbrother Luo, you have to come to the Shen Fu Realm to visit us!”

On the flying boat, Xiao Shuyi, with her long braided hair, kept on waving her hand.

By her side, there was the quietly laughing Xiu Xiu, and the sighing Chen Xiuping.

Luo Chen raised his right hand and waved back.

“May your journey be smooth!”

Hum…

With a surge of Spirit Light, the flying boat took to the sky under the watchful gaze of many people.

After making a turn, it became a Glint and swiftly flew away.

Within a few breaths, the flying boat in everyone's eyes was reduced to a small dot.

“This sort of speed isn't achievable by a magic tool, it must be a magic item!”

Luo Chen sighed and turned to leave.

From now on, separated by vast distances, I don't know when we'll meet again.

However, I am now the hall master of the Pill Hall of Broken Mountain Gang, and they are great sect disciples. We all have a bright future ahead of us, and we shouldn't worry..
