Since it was the registration day for the new students, the bustling city of Beijing was already congested after 4: 30 pm. It took Ling Yun more than an hour to reach the Ling Family's mansion.
"Phew … I'm finally home. The traffic in Beijing is really congested!"
Ling Yun jumped out of the car as soon as it entered the main gate. He took a deep breath of the dense spiritual energy in the Ling Family's mansion and complained at the same time.
To Ling Yun, this was a waste of time. Of course, he complained.
Cao Shanshan got out of the car as well. Hearing Ling Yun's complaints, she giggled. "This is considered congested? You haven't seen the real congested situation in Beijing. Cars are queuing for a few kilometers, unable to move for a few hours. Now that's called congested! "
"If you don't believe me, wait until the National Day holiday. When everyone comes out for a holiday, Beijing will be filled with people. That scene is really …"
Ling Yun felt a headache coming on. "I think we should forget about it … It's scary. Luckily, I won't be in Beijing then …"
Ten days later, it would be the mid-autumn full moon. National Day was ten days away. Ling Yun estimated that he would not be back for at least half a month.
"Shanshan, I have something to discuss with Second Uncle later. Go back to your room first and pack up. We'll talk again tonight …"
"Sure."
Cao Shanshan knew what Ling Yun was going to say. She blushed and only said one word before disappearing in a puff of smoke.
Ling Yun looked at Cao Shanshan's graceful figure and laughed. He shook his head and went to find Ling Yue.
Ling Yue was already waiting for Ling Yun in the courtyard.
"Yun Er, you're back? Have a seat. "
It was autumn, and the weather was not hot or cold. Ling Yue was not even in the house. He had prepared tea in the courtyard and was waiting for Ling Yun.
There was a simple stone table and two comfortable bamboo chairs. The tea was steaming and fragrant.
"Hehe, I like Second Uncle's tea more and more now."
Ling Yun didn't stand on ceremony after entering. He sat directly opposite Ling Yue and picked up the cup of tea.
Ling Yue looked at Ling Yun gulping down the tea. This is what a family should be. He smiled. "Was there a traffic jam on the road?"
"Blocked!" Ling Yun poured out his grievances. "That was really blocked, I almost died …"
Ling Yue smiled and poured water for Ling Yun, allowing him to pour out his grievances. Only after Ling Yun was done did they get down to business.
"How did it feel to attend the Ye family's auction last night? Tell Second Uncle the specifics. "
Knowing that Ling Yun didn't have much time to chat, Ling Yue went straight to the point.
"So profitable! It's too profitable! "
Ling Yun's eyes lit up, and at the same time, his face was filled with indignation. "Damn, this is daylight robbery! With a commission of 20%, the transaction value in one night was more than 200 billion. In just over five hours, at least 40 billion in profit was earned! "
Ling Yue rubbed his forehead and thought to himself, Who asked you this?
"F * ck! We have to do it! " Ling Yun stood up immediately. "We need to get the Ling Family's auction up as soon as possible!"
"Of course that's not a problem. Second Uncle has his own plan. I've already arranged for people to start preparing."
Looking at Ling Yun's ferocious expression, Ling Yue was actually very calm. Ling Yun had already proven his strength by defeating the two elders of the Heavenly Team. Naturally, the Ling Family had nothing to worry about when organizing the ancient martial arts auction.
Right now, even if the Ling Family were to compete with the Long Family and the Ye Family, what harm was there in that?
In the past twenty years, the Ling Family had at most earned eight billion a year, and that was during the good times. Every year, they couldn't make ends meet. Ling Yue had experienced this firsthand.
The money that the Ling Family earned in a year couldn't compare to the money that the Ye Family earned in an hour. This was the difference between the two families.
"Second Uncle was just asking you about the situation of the auction and your gains last night. Tell me roughly."
Therefore, Ling Yun began to explain. Of course, it was mainly about the overall situation of the auction. There were details and summaries, and it took him about twenty minutes to finish.
Finally, he said, "Second Uncle, now our Ling Family doesn't lose to the Long Family and the Ye Family. When they or the Heavenly Team organize another auction, you can go and take a look yourself. When the time comes, we can also use it as a reference."
Ling Yue nodded. "You're right, that's a must. However, the operation of an auction house is basically the same. I'll go and take a look and learn from it. We can copy it and save a lot of trouble."
According to Ling Yun's description, after decades of rapid development, the Ye Family's auction house had perfectly integrated the auction of ancient martial arts resources with modern technology. This was undoubtedly the best model at the moment, and they could only follow it. There was no way to change it.
The only way to compete was naturally by looking at the auction items.
As long as the items auctioned by the auction house sold well and could lead the market, that family's auction house would be popular.
Ling Yue sipped his tea. "According to what you said, it seems like you gained a lot last night?"
Ling Yun laughed. "Hehe, Second Uncle, I don't dare to boast about other things, but participating in this auction, our Ling Family earned a lot. We earned no less than the Ye Family!"
Then, he raised a finger.
"One year! This includes all the direct descendants of the Ling Family, the 36 Ling Family Warriors of Sacrifice, and the 72 disciples of the Immortal Physician Sect. We have all the cultivation resources for a year!
"From now on, for a year, everyone in the Ling Family can focus on cultivation without having to worry about resources!"
Hearing this, Ling Yue's heart trembled. He stood up abruptly. "Really?!"
Of course, he was excited. This way, the Ling Family wouldn't have to seek help from the outside world for a year. They would be self-sufficient for cultivation resources. This way, everyone could focus on cultivation, and he could start to focus on running the various businesses of the Ling Family!
Ling Yun was very pleased. He laughed. "How would I dare to lie to you, Uncle! Furthermore, this is only the compensation from the Heavenly Team. The compensation from the 14 people and the salaries of the six people in our family … will be enough for at least two years! "
When it came to calculating, no one could compare to Ling Yun.
"Good! Good! Good! "
Ling Yue was excited. He said the word 'good' three times in a row. Then, he said excitedly, "Good lad! Now, our Ling Family can finally operate normally. "
Weapons, elixirs, spiritual herbs, and all kinds of cultivation resources would be available. They wouldn't need to rely on others anymore!
Of course, Ling Yue knew what this meant. The Ling Family would regain their position as the number one family in Huaxia and return to the pinnacle of Huaxia!
After the excitement, Ling Yue calmed down and sat down again to drink a cup of tea.
However, he heard Ling Yun say, "From now on, our Ling Family won't be lacking in money. With the White Jade Peak honey, I can refine the Beauty Pill and Beauty Pill. I can also auction off a few spatial rings or Healing Talismans. I can easily make hundreds of billions. It'll be like playing around."
"Pfft …"
Ling Yue's heart skipped a beat, and he spat out the tea in his mouth.
This was the effect that Ling Yun wanted. He laughed and watched Ling Yue's embarrassment.
"Brat, how dare you laugh at your second uncle!"
Ling Yue was too excited and couldn't be bothered to argue with Ling Yun. Then, he straightened his expression and said slowly, "If that's the case, I won't ask you about the auction anymore."
Then, he raised his eyebrows. "This afternoon, the medical department of Swallow Capital University. Are you there?"
Ling Yue naturally asked about the summit meeting as well. However, he didn't say it explicitly.
Ling Yun nodded immediately. "Yes, I have. I didn't expect it to be today. What a surprise."
"However …" Ling Yun looked like he was in a difficult position. "Second Uncle, I really can't tell anyone about our conversation. Not even Grandpa, Father, or you."
Unexpectedly, Ling Yue waved his hand. "You don't have to feel troubled about this. You just can't tell us. Even if you want to, we can't listen. "
Ling Yue naturally understood the rules, so he didn't blame Ling Yun. However, he still needed to know the outcome. Therefore, he said, "However, can you at least tell me the outcome? Is it positive or negative? This way, I can be more confident when I do things in the future. "
This was naturally not a problem. Ling Yun chuckled and said proudly, "As long as he is, the Ling Family is. As long as the Ling Family is, he is."
Ling Yun only said ten words, and this was the outcome of the summit meeting.
Cooperation! Win-win! Lips and teeth!
As soon as Ling Yun said this, Ling Lie and Ling Xiao stood up at the same time in the ninth and fourth courtyards of the Ling Family!
Even though they weren't in the courtyard, Ling Lie and Ling Xiao were naturally listening to such an important conversation.
The thousand-year dark room was lit up by a single lamp!
Now, the Ling Family had two lamps. Furthermore, these two lamps were comparable to the sun and moon in the sky. How could it not be lit up?
"Hahahahaha …"
Ling Yue was already laughing to the sky. He only stopped after a long time.
"Brat, you're really something!" Ling Yue sat down once again. It took him a long time to calm down. Then, he said, "Then, I won't ask about the rest."
It was already enough!
"Yun'er, in the past ten days, the storm caused by us destroying the Sun Chen Alliance has gradually subsided, and the trouble caused by the Heaven Squad is now gone. You have also finished participating in the auction last night, and you have already reported to the university today …"
Ling Yue's eyes lit up. "Beijing will definitely enter a period of relative peace in the coming period."
All the waves in Beijing over the past month were caused by the rise of the Ling Family led by Ling Yun. Now, no one dared to oppose him. As long as Ling Yun didn't make any new moves, Beijing would naturally be relatively peaceful.
Then, Ling Yue asked, "So, what are your plans from now on? Tell Second Uncle about it. "
Ling Yun had already thought about this. "I'll prepare for a week. After everything is ready, I'll go to the Wind Thunder Valley on Mount Longhu to participate in the Devil Subduing Conference."
It wasn't just the Devil Subduing Conference. Ling Yun had too many important things to do this trip!
He wanted to avenge Bai Xianer, save Zhuang Meifeng, and save Qin Qiuyue!
Ling Yun had been waiting for these three things for a long time!
