196: It was supposed to be about cultivation, but it's gone awry.

Unlike the tense atmosphere in Qingyang City, the Feng Family was exceptionally lively at this moment.

Early in the morning, the Eldest Uncles Wife's voice rang out in the courtyard.

There were also the hurried footsteps of Maids and servants.

When Feng Ming and Jiang Shuwan came out, they saw the Eldest Uncles Wife directing the servants to decorate the courtyard.

It made sense; they had planned to properly decorate and set up their new home from the start, but it had been delayed until now because of the Huangfu Family's affairs.

Seeing his family's steady and happy smiles, Feng Ming's mood improved significantly as well.

"Husband, now that the dust has settled, shouldn't we head back to the Sect?"

Hearing this, Feng Ming raised an eyebrow. "Wife, why are you in such a hurry? Was the experience during this time not enjoyable?"

Jiang Shuwan gave him a playful, annoyed glare.

"You have the nerve to say that. We clearly agreed to Cultivate at home, but instead, you took me from the bedroom to the kitchen, and even to the courtyard and the swing, all..."

She was too embarrassed to continue. Who could have imagined that Feng Ming, who looked so serious on the surface, would be this kind of person in private?

"'Drunken revelry on the grape trellis, golden eggs hitting the silver goose,' isn't it fun?"

Feng Ming joked with a smile. He hadn't experienced it before and didn't understand what was so fun about those places.

But after experiencing it, he realized that the ancients really knew how to have fun.

What the ancestors had carefully selected and passed down could be described in one word: superb!

Seeing Feng Ming's reminiscing expression, Jiang Shuwan's face turned even redder, especially those two phrases, which left her staring at him speechlessly.

"You! You Lecher!"

Jiang Shuwan wanted to run away immediately, but Feng Ming pulled her into his arms and sighed, "Foolish Wife, it's a good thing you married me; otherwise, you would have missed out on so many interesting experiences."

"It's just a pity there are no cars; otherwise, we could have tried something else."

Blushing, Jiang Shuwan asked curiously, "What kind of carriage is a 'car'?"

Feng Ming explained, "It's a type of vehicle that, as long as you lock the door, no one can open it from the outside."

"Sounds impressive. What can this vehicle do?"

Hearing this, Feng Ming chuckled, leaned close to Jiang Shuwan's ear, and said, "This kind of vehicle can be driven to a place with beautiful scenery to do you!"

"You!"

The blush that had finally faded from Jiang Shuwan's face immediately resurfaced.

"Hmph, if that's the case, then I hope such vehicles never exist in the world. At least in a carriage, you wouldn't dare to act so recklessly."

Feng Ming raised an eyebrow. "That's not necessarily true. Although there are no cars, a carriage can be modified. Just wait for the surprise I'll give you later, Madam."

"I'm ignoring you! You're too wicked!"

While the two were having a rare moment of flirting,

Feng Da came in from outside, holding a letter.

"Young Master, Young Miss Hua sent someone to deliver a letter to you."

Feng Ming took it. Jiang Shuwan was a bit confused. "Didn't you say it was a letter from Miss Hua? Why is it signed by Yue Qingchen?"

Feng Ming smiled. "That's normal. Now that the Huangfu Family has been wiped out, many things can be replanned. Yue Qingchen is naturally waiting for this opportunity, but he's too impatient. The Huangfu Family is gone, but Huangfu Mo is still in Qingyang City."

Feng Ming turned to Feng Da and said, "Go tell Young Miss Hua that I've received the letter and understand Lord Yue's intentions. Everyone wants to make money peacefully, but when we start depends on when Huangfu Mo leaves."

"Yes!"

Feng Da left.

In fact, Feng Ming's concerns were not without reason. Huangfu Mo staying in Qingyang City did indeed have an impact, though not necessarily on Feng Ming.

Rather, it was on Yue Qingchen, who sent him the letter, since Huangfu Mo was Yue Qingchen's superior.

Therefore, some things could only be done after Huangfu Mo had left.

"Wife, go pack your things. We'll return to the Sect in a while."

After saying that, Feng Ming went to the backyard.

Previously, for safety, he had established the Alchemy Hall in the Feng Family's backyard. Now that the Huangfu Family was gone, it naturally had to be moved.

And expanded as well.

A few days ago, Feng Ming had already asked Chun Tao to select a suitable manor and start setting it up.

Now that the dust had settled, these people naturally had to move out. When Feng Ming arrived, everyone was in the middle of moving things.

Seeing Feng Ming, Chun Tao hurried over to greet him.

Feng Ming nodded and asked, "How are things going?"

"Rest assured. Following your instructions, I bought the best Sealing Array from the Hua Clan Merchant House for the manor. Experts below the Mahayana Realm cannot detect anything inside at all!"

"Besides the Sealing Array, I've also set up three layers of Illusion Arrays, three layers of Killing Arrays, and three layers of Trapping Arrays. Even a Mahayana Realm expert would be trapped for a while!"

Feng Ming nodded.

Medicinal Pills were the foundation of the Feng Family, the top priority, so the dedicated manor had to be absolutely secure.

This was the focus of Feng Ming's attention.

Chun Tao then asked, "By the way, Young Master, for this relocation, should your senior and junior brothers in Qingyang City come along?"

These people were attracted after Feng Ming demonstrated his pill-refining skills and recommended his own Pill Refining Room that day.

Those miraculous skills had drawn in many Alchemy Disciples, and they now formed a small group.

Feng Ming thought for a moment and shook his head. "There's no need to bring them here for now. Find some time to buy a smaller manor to house them. Only after they reach a certain rank, swear a Blood Oath, and sign a deed of sale can they be transferred in."

Chun Tao nodded. Then Feng Ming added, "Absorb as many Alchemists from the Huangfu Family as possible. Same old rules: the Blood Oath and the deed of sale are both mandatory."

He had been eyeing the Huangfu Family's Alchemists from the very beginning.

Now that the Huangfu Family had completely collapsed, it was the perfect time for him to make his move on these Alchemists.

With this group of people, the Feng Family could go much further in the future.

As for benefits, Feng Ming wouldn't suppress them; he would give them the same as the Alchemists in the residence.

After all, with Feng Ming's Alchemy recipes, their Medicinal Pills had extremely high profit margins, so they would make money no matter what.

Feng Ming wasn't worried at all that these Alchemists would go elsewhere.

After all, in Qingyang City today, there was no other choice but the Feng Family with the capacity to absorb so many Alchemists.

In terms of treatment and benefits, no one else could even compare.

"Also, send out a notice that in one month, the price of the Feng Family's Medicinal Pills will increase. However, hold more daily events to return the increased price to the Cultivators who buy the pills in the form of benefits."

Feng Ming was already making a profit at the current prices, let alone after the price hike.

Besides, Feng Ming's goal wasn't just Qingyang City.

Chun Tao noted everything down.

Jiang Shuwan arrived just in time to hear this and couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Husband, why are you raising the price of the Medicinal Pills?"

"Raising the price right after the Huangfu Family's downfall—won't that cause dissatisfaction and boycotts among the Cultivators?"
