Chapter 87: Shocking Thorn

Needless to say, this was another work of Lu Changjing and Cai Gu, and Cao Xiuyuan, Cao Wenzhen's adopted son, also got involved.

With the cooperation of Cao Xiuyuan and Cai Gu, and the help of Zhao Yali, it would not be easy for Cao Wenzhen to discover the truth.

Perhaps by the time he discovers it, Lu Changjing will have already entered the realm of gods and demons.

After reading the information about Yingkou, Lu Changjing became quite angry with them.

Especially after discovering that these Sakura pirates actually controlled shipping and had not seized the opportunity, and that very few people were doing business through shipping, Lu Changjing hated these idiots who were occupying the toilet without doing anything even more.

When he becomes the Emperor of Daning and gains control of the government, he will definitely exterminate all these Sakura bandits and vigorously develop maritime transportation in the East China Sea.

If maritime transport could be developed, it would at least be able to increase the tax revenue of the Da Ning Dynasty by several times, or even dozens of times.

By then, with sufficient resources and wealth, it would be impossible for the Daning Dynasty not to develop even if it wanted to.

After solving the problem of Sakura pirates' invasion, Lu Changjing can practice with peace of mind again.

This incident also made Cao Wen Zheng even busier, leaving him with little time to take care of Lu Changjing. It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone.

After entering the realm of the sixth-rank grandmaster, he needed more time to accumulate physical fitness, so he could devote most of his energy to improving various combat skills and secret techniques.

Under this inclination, the speed of improving many combat skills and secret techniques is extremely fast.

"Shhhhh..."

In the secret retreat room, Lu Changjing shook his wrist, and the Mountain Spirit Sword instantly slashed out ten times, each with its full attack power.

If ten swords fall on one point, it is almost equivalent to increasing his attack power tenfold.

Looking at the copper meteorite that was easily cut off, Lu Changjing nodded with satisfaction.

The defense of this copper meteorite was so strong that it was almost as strong as a top-level spiritual weapon, but he cut it off with one sword.

This means that if caught off guard, Lu Changjing would have a great chance of severely injuring the grandmaster, or even killing him.

The spiritual armor on Cao Wenzhen's body is a top-level spiritual weapon. As long as we can break it, there will be a chance to kill him.

As for his defense as a first-level body refining master, it was nothing in front of the Mountain Spirit Sword.

He nodded with satisfaction. Once he reached the seventh-order master level, he would definitely be able to kill Cao Wenzhen, or even most of the top-order masters.

While he practiced the Imperial Sword Skill to the tenth level, he also did not neglect other combat skills and secret arts. He also practiced the Heavenly Illusion Tribulation and the God-Slaying Tribulation among the Four Imperial Tribulations to the level of minor success.

Jingmu Jie and Jingang Jie, which came one step ahead, are still in the stage of minor success, but are getting closer and closer to major success.

After all, it is a top-level divine art. How can it be so easy to practice?

However, even if it is only a small success, its power exceeds that of many top-level spiritual arts, and even the realm of perfection, which is enough for Lu Changjing to use for the time being.

The Huangji Youlongbu is also at the minor success stage. It will probably take a long time to achieve major success, let alone perfection.

What made Lu Changjing happy was that he had mastered these combat skills and secret techniques and could use them to their greatest power.

Once he exerted his full strength, no matter how hard Cao Xiuyuan, Cai Gu, and Zhao Yali tried, they would not be able to do anything to Lu Changjing. His overall strength was now at the level of a high-level master, and he was not a weakling even among the high-level masters.

Even his combat experience and skills have improved, and he is no longer the rookie master who only has the realm of cultivation.

Compared to other things, Lu Changjing feels that this is particularly important.

While Lu Changjing was busy practicing, the glass products and thunder beads business of Tan's company became more and more prosperous.

Especially for Pilizi, because the number of them available each time is limited, many powerful and wealthy people have made reservations in advance, and some are even willing to pay a premium.

Under such circumstances, there was no problem selling Pilizi, and Tan's Company also made a considerable profit from it.

Even if 90% of it was handed over to Lu Changjing, the remaining 10% would still allow Tan's Company to make a lot of money.

Every time the Thunderbolt seeds are sold, it is basically a net profit. The cost is just gold and silver, which is almost negligible compared to the cost.

In just a few months, Tan's Company earned several thousand low-grade spirit stones from the thunder seeds. After deducting the share given to Lu Changjing, they still had several hundred low-grade spirit stones.

This is not a small number. You have to know that Rong Xiyao, as the highest-ranking imperial concubine in the harem, only owns a few hundred low-grade spirit stones.

Even if all kinds of rare treasures, elixirs and the like were added in, there were only more than a thousand low-grade spirit stones.

The Tan Company earned half of the Imperial Concubine's fortune in just a few months, and all of it in a year.

This is still the case when production is deliberately controlled, otherwise the income can at least increase several times.

Just use your toes to think about how profitable this business is.

In order to thank Lu Changjing for giving them this business, after much hesitation, Tan Qianqian decided to give Lu Changjing another good thing.

This was also facilitated by Tan Qianqian's little cotton-padded jacket Tan Qingyun, otherwise Tan Qianqian would not have made up his mind to give such a good thing to Lu Changjing, even though he was His Majesty the Emperor and his son-in-law.

Shocking thorn!
A top-level spiritual attack weapon that can effectively break through various spiritual defenses, allowing the Soul-Picking Hook to enter smoothly, is exactly what Lu Changjing needs.

Unfortunately, we are still missing a top-level spiritual defense weapon, but this kind of treasure is more expensive than offensive spiritual weapons, and Tan’s Company only has one, so we can’t afford it.

What Lu Changjing was using at the moment was only an intermediate-level spiritual defense weapon. With the protection of Vajra Tribulation and his powerful spiritual power, he could barely withstand the attack of the top-level spiritual weapon.

However, if the enemy's spiritual power is stronger and more powerful than his, the possibility of being able to resist will not be so great.

Fortunately, his physique is quite terrifying, and his powerful spiritual blood and true energy have a certain weakening effect on resisting mental attacks.

It was only after Lu Changjing heard that Tan’s Company had such a good thing as the Jingshen Thorn that he urged Tan Qingyun to ask for it, and for this reason he even gave all the dividends of the past few months to Tan’s Company.

Although it was not as expensive as the Jingshen Thorn, it barely comforted Tan Qianqian's wounded heart.

Because too many resources and treasures were overdrawn in advance, plus the value of the Jingshen Thorn, it is estimated that there will be no chance of getting much spirit stones from the sale of Pilizi this year.

Even a lot of next year's profits have to be returned to Tan's Trading Company, but if Lu Changjing still needs it in the future, he can continue to overdraw.

After all, the manufacturing method and sales of Thunderbolt Seeds are in the hands of Tan’s Company, and Tan Qianqian is not afraid that Lu Changjing will not repay his debts.

Of course, in his opinion, Lu Changjing is Ning Zhongyu, so what does Ning Zhongyu borrowing money have to do with Lu Changjing?
