Chapter 246: Targeting the Lin Family

The third floor of Qinglin Dantang.

A middle-aged man wearing a green robe with a white face and no beard was reporting the situation to an old man with gray hair and a black robe.

The middle-aged man is the chief shopkeeper of Qinglin Alchemy Hall, named Lin Quan, and the old man is Lin Yuan, the chief elder of the Lin family!

"Great Elder, this year our Qinglin Dantang main hall and each branch's profit reached 86 million. Compared with last year, it has increased by two points. In addition, we have a marketing path to the Scorpio Kingdom. It’s about to open, and if we can gain a firm foothold in the Scorpio Country’s market, our Lin family’s elixir business will get bigger and bigger in the future.”

Lin Quan smiled at the Great Elder Lin Yuan.

"Yes, Scorpio Country will definitely face a lot of obstruction. If you need any support from the family, just tell the family."

Lin Yuan nodded, extremely satisfied. The elixir business has always been the mainstay of the Lin family's economy, followed by the restaurant business.

The Lin family supports so many people. Without such a large financial support, it is impossible to support so many Zhenwu monks and Yuanyang experts.

As for a power like Prince Xiang's Mansion, which has a city as a fiefdom, it can tax a large amount of wealth every year. There is no need to create any industry.

The Dashang royal family also relied on taxes and tributes from various forces to survive.

The power founded by Xiang Chen will also pay a certain amount of tax to the Dashang royal family in the future. The amount of tax will be based on 10% of the total profit.

"Big shopkeeper, this is bad!"

At this time, a man wearing deacon's robes came up to report.

"Meet the great elder and great shopkeeper."

The deacon said respectfully.

"What's the matter? Didn't you see that I'm discussing something with the great elder?" Lin Quan shouted.

The deacon smiled bitterly and said: "Big shopkeeper, something happened. Opposite our main hall, a new elixir hall business has been opened, called Tianchen Dange. The elixirs sold are all top-quality elixirs. The quality exceeds our elixirs, and the price is still low." It’s the same as the top-grade elixir. Now, all our guests have gone to Tianchen Dan Pavilion to buy elixirs.”

"What!"

The big shopkeeper's face changed when he heard this, and he stood up suddenly. The big elder Lin Yuan frowned.

Lin Quan immediately walked quickly to the window and saw a large number of people pouring into a store opposite in the distance, which was extremely lively.

It was a newly opened store that had been under renovation, but I didn't know that it was being renovated to sell elixirs.

Lin Quan's face darkened and he said, "What's going on with that Tianchen Dan Pavilion? Which force, which family runs it?"

The deacon said: "There is Mr. Hua from the Ten Thousand Medicine Pavilion and Mr. Feng from the Alchemy Alliance, but I don't know if they are the real bosses behind the scenes."

"Is it just this one store?"

Lin Quan asked again.

The Lin family's elixir hall has many branches. Naturally, the cultivation market with such a large population as Dashang cannot be satisfied by just one elixir hall.

In the city of Dashang King, the Lin family has twelve alchemy halls.

"I don't know. There is no news from other branches."

The deacon said.

"Big shopkeeper, there is a letter from Branch No. 2."

At this time, a deacon came up again with a falcon on his shoulder, Hai Dongqing.

Haidongqing, an eagle that flies at an amazing speed, is often used to deliver letters.

Lin Quan opened the letter and read it, and it was clearly written on the street where the No. 2 Branch Hall was located. A new elixir shop named Tianchen Dan Pavilion had opened. A batch of top-quality elixirs appeared in the No. 2 Pavilion, and he immediately grabbed them. Where are the customers gone?

Lin Quan's face turned slightly gloomy.

"Big shopkeeper, a letter from Shop No. 3!"

"Big shopkeeper, a letter from Shop No. 4!"

"…………"

At this time, news came from several other branches.

Except here, there are a total of six elixir halls, and there is such an elixir hall named Tianchen Dange. It sold a batch of top-quality elixirs and took away most of the customers of the Lin family's Qinglin Dange. source.

After seeing this, Lin Quan's face darkened. Half of the Lin family's elixir business in the royal city was suddenly hit by the Tianchen Dan Pavilion's store.

"what happened?"

Great Elder Lin Yuan asked.

Lin Quan's face turned ugly and he said: "First Elder, in the elixir market of our main hall and the five branch halls, suddenly a competitor named Tianchen Dange is competing with us for the elixir business, which has caused a lot of harm to us. Big impact on customer base.”

"Tianchen Dan Pavilion!" Lin Yuan frowned and said, "Why haven't you heard of this force? It's newly opened? Who is behind it?"

"It's newly opened. The people behind it are not yet clear, but Hua Fang and Feng Mo are in charge. They may have something to do with Wanyao Pavilion and the Alchemist Alliance." Lin Quan said.

Lin Yuan frowned when he heard this and said: "Many of our medicinal materials come from Wanyao Pavilion. Wanyao Pavilion is unlikely to target us and compete with us on the territory where we sell elixirs. No good."

"The Alchemy Alliance is even more unlikely. Many of the Alchemy Alliance's elixirs are also sold through our Lin family's channels. There is no reason for them to compete with us on our territory. You have people check it out and see what this is. Who is the owner behind Tianchen Dan Pavilion? The elixir business cannot be opened without strong financial resources to support the purchase of medicinal materials, and without the support of a large number of alchemists. With such a large elixir business, the background of the other party must not be simple."

"yes."

Lin Quan nodded.

On the fourth floor of Tianchen Dan Pavilion, on the balcony of a room facing the street, Xiang Chen looked at the lively crowd below and the Lin family's Qinglin Dan Hall in the distance, which suddenly became much deserted, with a sneer on his lips.

If he didn't have enough manpower and not many alchemists, he would definitely open a Tianchen Alchemy Pavilion in every shop of the Lin family to compete with the Lin family for business, suppressing the Lin family's elixir business with quality and price.

He taught the hundreds of alchemists how to practice the three flavors of true fire, and taught them the detailed methods of refining several top-quality elixirs, including elixir patterns.

The alchemy ability of his alchemy masters has also been greatly improved, and they can produce the best elixirs within the scope of their abilities.

Moreover, those people, with detailed alchemy recipes, not only the few with particularly poor talents, but also most of the others have become alchemy masters. He has seventy or eighty alchemy masters under his command, as well as Mr. Feng, a spiritual alchemist.

"Sir, our business is so booming." Man He stood behind Xiang Chen and said in surprise as he looked at the lively crowd of people grabbing pills below.

"That's natural. If I can't beat the Lin family in terms of elixirs, Bago will know better than to scold me to death." Xiang Chen said with a smile.

"By the way, speaking of Bago, I haven't seen this guy for a long time. Where has this guy gone?" Xiang Chen thought to himself, still missing Bago a little bit.

"Chen'er, if you want to do business, mother can help you in the future." Su Qing smiled at this time.

"Okay, mother, I heard that you were a business genius in the past, and you managed all the industries in Xiangcheng in an orderly manner. With your help, our Xiang family's economic and industrial rise is just around the corner!"
