Family Management Game In Immortal Continent Chapter 845: Cultivation World Capitalist

The Imperial Capital.

Li Wei gazed upon the [Crown Prince Feiheng] special event, now manifesting right at the Merchant Li Family's position within the Imperial Capital.

When it came to the biggest shifts inside the clan, nothing topped the thriving merchant empire led by Li Yuanshang.

In his interactions with the younger generation over recent years, Li Wei had picked up plenty of whispers about the Merchant Li Family.

Folks claimed that if you figured out what someone craved—and if it truly existed anywhere in this realm—the Merchant Li Family could get even Body Integration Realm powerhouses to stake their lives on it.

Sure, that sounded overblown, yet it highlighted the staggering riches the Merchant Li Clan had amassed once Li Yuanshang gradually seized chunks of the Heavenly Principles Hall's operations.

[You granted your kin, Li Yuanshang, a treasure trove of contemporary business wisdom.

Through years of grueling effort in learning and real-world trials, Li Yuanshang has gained the trait: Cultivation World Capitalist.]

[Business Ability boosted by 100%.]

[Gained Trait: Capitalist]

[Your kin, Li Yuanshang, now controls the top hotel in the cultivation realm, known as the "Tower of Prodigies."

An Aptitude Testing Stele stands guard at the doorway; entry and lodging are reserved solely for those with fitting talent.

Offspring from mighty Clans and Sects swarm to it endlessly.

Without a stay of several days, one risks becoming a joke among equals.

The booking queue for the Tower of Prodigies stretches over 50 years ahead...]

[The Heavenly Principles Hall unveiled a "Slash-a-Price" Stele.

This stele brims with tiers of challenges; the further a cultivator carves through, the steeper the bargain they earn.

Buddies may join to lend a hand in the carving.

Heavenly Principles Hall shops bustle like bustling bazaars, with trade booming wildly...]

[Launched the "Immortal Scavenger" Black Market.

Cultivators deposit valuables inside, sharing profits alongside the Immortal Suppression Division while skimming fees from deals...]

In the liveliest quarter of the Imperial Capital, a grand estate loomed—the Li Residence.

It radiated opulent splendor, brimming with glittering treasures and lofty elegance.

On the outside, the Merit Grotto-Heaven paled beside this Merchant Li family stronghold, seeming like a rundown shack.

A crane soared down from the heavens, slipping into the Li Residence.

A plump, hefty fellow dashed out from the central hall in a frenzy.

He resembled a rolling sphere, adorned in lavish gold and silver that clinked noisily with every step.

This was none other than "Big Fatty Li," "Great Benefactor Li," and "Great Merchant Li," the sensation sweeping the Imperial Capital these days.

The "Benefactor" moniker came purely from Li Yuanshang's habit of spreading aid far and wide.

That approach alone kept his enormous wealth safe from greedy stares.

Spotting Li Yuanshang's form, Li Wei's lip curled in amusement.

Years back, Su Chen had tried to slim down Li Yuanshang, and the effort actually happened.

Alas, that regimen endured just two years.

Li Yuanshang stayed the same, while Su Chen slunk back to Azure Cloud Prefecture, embarrassed and noticeably plumper.

He's holed up in the Myriad Dao Pagoda even now, insisting his Dao Heart got tainted by material excess and demanding time to steady his spirit.

Li Yuanshang hustled to the courtyard entrance.

His frantic, awkward strides had the nearby servants clustering around the mogul in worry, fearing he'd stumble.

Reaching the crane, an agent from the Heavenly Principles Hall's Dark Division handed over a Jade Slip.

Li Yuanshang accepted it, letting a beam of golden glow seep into his forehead.

Absorbing the word from his senior, delight bloomed across his features.

"Excellent, excellent, excellent! My grandfather truly sees eye to eye with me.

He's merely a Crown Prince, after all; what true gains could he offer our clan?

It's wise that Grandfather and the Clan Elders grasp this fully!"

His words had barely echoed when a household servant drew near.

"To the Family Head: the Crown Prince heads here for a visit."

"Hm. Set up a feast."

Li Yuanshang flicked his hand casually and headed back to the main hall.

As he strode along, he popped a bunch of Grade 7 and Grade 8 pills straight into his maw.

Any witness would gasp in disbelief.

Word had it the Merchant Li Clan's leader lingered at Golden Core Realm; normally, downing those required cautious absorption to prevent meridian rupture.

But this fellow gulped them like snacks, utterly unscathed!

Soon enough, the Merchant Lineage offspring assembled.

More than forty showed up, each a master of commerce.

Li Yuanshang grinned widely.

"Young ones, etch this in your minds.

Crown Prince Feiheng wields immense might and sway.

The realm believes our Li Main Family shares a special bond with him. Yet that's exactly why we must steer clear of the spotlight while it's blazing hottest.

Should any of you attempt to ride the Crown Prince's coattails, I'll ship you off to the Silver Moon Branch Family for ore digging."

At that, the Merchant Lineage youths' expressions shifted in alarm.

To them, the Silver Moon Branch Family evoked images of the netherworld.

The Silver Moon Branch Family's spot was a barren wasteland indeed; Spirit Ore overflowed as the sole bounty.

Even Li Xinjue, that branch's chief, had to delve into the depths for mining himself.

Numerous Merchant Lineage folks had faced exile there as penalty; for months on end, they'd shun sunlight and savor no oily bites.

Noting the fear etched on the youths' faces, Li Yuanshang swelled with satisfaction.

Clan Great-Uncle Xinjue's reputation served as his ultimate tool in running the household.

Sweeping his eyes over the bunch, Li Yuanshang creased his forehead. "Where's Jianguo?"

"Grandfather, Eldest Uncle Jianguo headed to the Heavenly Palace," a grandson replied.

That news sparked delight on Li Yuanshang's visage.

"Fine boy. At last, he grasps the value of hitting the Heavenly Palace to haggle deals with those nobles."

The group exchanged uneasy glances.

Eventually, one chuckled wryly and explained, "Eldest Uncle Jianguo... he went to the Heavenly Palace to fix up the structures."

"Idiot!" Li Yuanshang exploded in anger.

As he huffed in fury, the youths moved to ease his labored breaths, yet he bellowed, "Get lost! All of you, scatter and tend to the enterprises!"

In a flash, the Merchant Lineage children fled like spooked wildlife.

It took ages for Li Yuanshang to exhale heavily, his countenance clouded with concern.

"He tosses aside this vast inheritance to tinker at the Imperial Capital's Ministry of Works. That fool just doesn't get it: 'Every trade lags behind; commerce reigns above all.'"

In his downcast state, Crown Prince Feiheng showed up, prompting Li Yuanshang to greet him warmly.

During Li Yuanshang's days in the main family, he'd crossed paths often with Feiheng.

Back then, the lad toiling in the fields drew sneers from Merit City's ordinary folk.

They jeered that after over a century, this field hand remained wifeless, childless, and heirless—a lone soul, utterly forlorn.

Yet who'd have dreamed he'd vault like a carp to dragon status, emerging as Crown Prince Feiheng in an instant?

At the feast, draped in a purple python robe, Feiheng beamed amiably, resembling a kindly clan senior.

Li Yuanshang knew this guise well; the King of Qian, once confined in their abode, had worn the same.

His grandfather had noted such types hid profound cunning.

His own grandfather bore that air too, backed by true warmth in action and soul.

"Yuanshang, in my battle for the Crown Prince seat amid the Imperial Capital, your efforts linked me to countless officials and powerhouses.

My links to the Heavenly Light Sect and the Imperial Preceptor's Min family owe everything to you paving the way."

Feiheng grinned while fiddling with the jade band on his pinky.

"Don't think I'm scolding you as your senior—but are you starting to see me as a stranger?"

Those lines left Li Yuanshang rattled at once. "No, please! I... I..."

Suddenly, he fumbled for words.

Feiheng's contentment deepened.

"I merely jested. You're still that eager kid from before—flustered by the tiniest jolt.

My visit aims to aid you. You've gathered riches aplenty, so what more do you crave?"

Li Yuanshang paused briefly, then lit up with glee.

"Perfect! Listen, that Min Family Patriarch has irked me for so long. With my Spirit Stones and your influence, we're unstoppable together!

That Min clan tied knots with me through marriage, but they scorn others terribly.

Lend me a hand; let's storm the Min place side by side. I aim to smack him down!"

"...."

Feiheng's facial muscles jerked.

"I want to thrash Min Youguo as well!"
