Talisman Reincarnation - All My Clones Are Dao Ancestors-Chapter 94: A cooperation deal

Fu Xian knew that helping them now would open up ways for him to ask for assistance later.

"Us too!" the others nodded, especially Jiming. She had a feeling that talismans were quite suitable to be implemented into the pavilion!

Cultivators had a kind of sixth sense for their path. Since she felt this way, she knew that it might help her greatly! Although like Puyan she didn’t feel like it could boost her path, just optimising it would allow her to progress faster.

In the group, the ranking of who was the furthest in their path was undoubtedly Ziling, Puyan, Miaoyu, her, Longbao... and Fu Xian.

Fu Xian then invited them into his main pavilion, but they all shook their heads.

"No, let’s visit another time. I think all of us have gained a bit of inspiration and should find ways to implement talismans into our path." Jiming said, feeling excitement welling up in her.

"Then I won’t stop senior brothers and sister! My courtyard is always open to you.

Also, senior brother Longbao, I have a question. I wonder if you could stay for a bit?"

Hearing his name, Longbao nodded with a smile, bidding farewell to the others.

Fu Xian took Longbao to the guest room. Since they had seen it already, it would be easier to invite him there instead of the main pavilion, where he’d have to give a tour first.

His senior brother sat down and took the tea offered before asking, "What can I help you with?"

"Senior brother, to be honest, I just have a few questions. Since I’m not very adept with the Human Dao and the dynasties below, I wanted to ask for confirmation on a few things.

There is a certain person in the Ning Dynasty which I wish to help. This person... let’s say it like this, he has the suffix ’Royal’.

Because of this, the investment I wish to give would be scrutinised. Even the person themselves shouldn’t have any direct involvement with me for now.

Is there a way to offer investment without attracting attention?"

"A royal of the Ning Dynasty?!" Longbao looked at Fu Xian in shock, "You don’t mean to say that this royal has a relationship with you? Fu Xian you, you’re a bit..."

"This matter has something to do with the past. Senior brother, after all, I am three hundred years old. How many things can I do in that time?"

"Truly, three hundred years are enough time to create connections with many places.

Alright, I will be honest.

In the Human Dao cultivation, the Ning Dynasty is the strongest power, by far!

Besides the Ning Dynasty, there are a few empires that have also reached the stage of transcendence, such as my Liang Empire. But even they mostly have imperial family members who transcend, with scholars and important generals being second.

There is no Human Dao force like the Ning Dynasty that has so many people transcending.

Imperials, royals, eunuchs, scholars, generals, craftsmen, artists, farmers... there have been many cases of people rising from the bottom to the peak in the dynasty.

If it weren’t for the loose structure of the dynasty and strict teaching of the imperial and royal descendants by the eunuchs, then there would’ve been many cases of accidentally harming talents and geniuses, ruining the potential of the dynasty.

Even though they seem casual about it, the royals of the Ning Dynasty are still of an extremely high rank, and direct relations with other countries are possible but put them under scrutiny, no matter what you do.

But don’t worry, junior brother Fu Xian. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Since my Lian Empire is so great, we naturally all have spies in their country. Even my Zui family has a hidden vassal family in their dynasty!

Everyone does this, heh, we’ve been asked more than once to become a vassal family of several hidden noble families of the Ning Dynasty.

Don’t worry, no matter what’s happening in secret, these spies are mainly used for information gathering and other purposes that don’t involve them harming the empire. If it wasn’t for these unofficial rules, there would be a lot more wars in the world.

The Human Dao can’t stand such massacre."

"That’s great, senior brother! I am embarrassed to ask for the direct location of that vassal family—"

"They live in the Stone Lotus Pass of Stone Lotus County," Longbao suddenly said.

"Ah?!" Fu Xian exclaimed, what was happening? His senior brother said it just like that??

"Haha, don’t look so surprised. There are over twelve families in that county. And even if something happened, that family has more than enough ways to destroy and deny any relation to us."

Hearing this, Fu Xian became a bit more daring. "The royal I am talking about is a Royal Eunuch who has just participated in this year’s Royal Assignment of the Ning Dynasty! I’m sure senior brother knows more about this assignment than me.

Haha, this year there were nine Royal Eunuchs!

And not to mention that family, those eunuchs are all one trickier than the other. Whether on paper or reality, there has been no connection between me and him. If someone were to say anything about it, it would just be bad rumours.

Although the Royal Assignment is generally randomised, there is always a list of places that require a Royal Office.

I presume the Stone Lotus County doesn’t have one?"

"Hmm..." Longbao thought about it before shaking his head, "no, it doesn’t.

The position of the Stone Lotus County is a bit special but not enough to have required a Royal Office until now."

"That’s fine, from now on, the Stone Lotus County happens to need one. I just hope senior brother can help me with a few things. Naturally, I will pay for them."

"What are you talking about, don’t mention paying anything. Haha, connecting our vassal family with a Royal Officer, especially the one in their local Royal Office, will cause them to pay us instead!

This connection is worth a lot!

As for their further actions, if junior brother wants us to give anything, you can just tell me.

If we can build a connection, it would benefit us too.

With the voucher of a Royal Officer, we could open a caravan to the Ning Dynasty or even build a branch!

There are many competitors in the Ning Dynasty but even more customers and opportunities!"

Fu Xian stood up and cupped his hands to Zui Longbao, "Senior brother, I hope this cooperation will benefit us both!"

Longbao also stood up and cupped his hands, "A happy and successful cooperation!"
