Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

This day.

Lu Changsheng was chatting with his wives and concubines when a servant came forward to report to him.

Someone outside was asking to see him and presented a token.

Upon seeing the token, Lu Changsheng immediately knew it was someone from Hong Yi.

He returned to the study, took out a brocade box prepared early on with talismans packed inside, and walked out of the courtyard.

People sent by Hong Yi naturally could not enter Qingzhu Mountain at will and were waiting outside.

As soon as Lu Changsheng arrived outside Qingzhu Mountain, he immediately saw a luxurious carriage parked not far away.

There was a flag on the carriage, bearing the words “Ruyi Marquis” in big characters.

Around it stood a group of robust men with well-proportioned bodies and sturdy auras, dressed in black tight-fitting clothes, carrying long swords and powerful crossbows.

They were all riding large horses a zhang in length and eight feet in height, with black fur and strong limbs.

At the head of these men was Hong Yi himself, dressed in luxurious brocade clothes and tall in stature.

Lu Changsheng had not expected Hong Yi to personally make the trip and with such a grand display.

The formidable appearance and demeanor of these men in black made it clear they were all martial arts masters.

However, Lu Changsheng could understand.

This was their first transaction, and naturally, Hong Yi wanted to show how much he valued it.

Moreover, the transaction was worth more than a hundred spirit stones.

For Ruyi Marquis Mansion, that many spirit stones were probably not a small amount; they wouldn’t be at ease having someone bring them over casually.

“Brother Lu, long time no see!”

Hong Yi, upon seeing Lu Changsheng come out, immediately stepped forward to greet him with an enthusiastic and hearty face.

He wore a purple gold crown and a purple brocade robe, looking more dignified and majestic than before.

“Brother Hong, I didn’t expect you to personally come all this way,” Lu Changsheng replied with a smile, stepping forward to meet him.

“I had nothing much to do, so I decided to make the trip myself,” Hong Yi said.

“Besides, I won’t lie to Brother Lu; this is the first time I’m handling such a large deal, so I feel more at ease being here in person.”

“Otherwise, if something were to happen on the way here and back, I could only bring back my head to see my father.” Hong Yi shook his head with a wry smile, half-joking, half-serious.

Although the Ruyi Marquis Mansion had some foundation, it wasn’t much, and the loss of over a hundred spirit stones would be quite painful.

“Haha, Brother Hong, you jest. Your father entrusting you with this matter shows his trust in you,” Lu Changsheng said.

In between the words, he took out the brocade box holding the talismans from the storage bag and handed it to Hong Yi.

“Brother Hong, these are the talismans you wanted.”

“It contains twenty fire bullet talismans, twenty water shield talismans, twenty evil warding talismans, twenty earth escape talismans, and twenty rejuvenation insignias. Please check them.”

“Regarding the price, as we previously agreed, it’s twenty percent below market price, so the total comes to one hundred and twelve spirit stones. Just give me one hundred and ten,” Lu Changsheng stated.

There were a total of one hundred talismans in the brocade box.

According to market price, that would be one hundred and forty spirit stones.

But Lu Changsheng had already agreed with Hong Yi to price them twenty percent below market price.

After all, a stable, long-term supply channel, and the buyer coming to pick up the goods himself, a twenty percent discount wasn’t too much to ask for.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng currently had an abundance of talismans.

If he could sell them safely and stably, even if he had to give a few more percentage points off, he was willing to do so.

After all, the cost of making the talismans was very low for him.

Most of the materials were leftover from making talismans for the Lu Family, and he had purchased only a small portion of the materials just for appearances.

Hong Yi took the brocade box, opened it, and saw the five stacks of talismans inside. A hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

As long as he brought this batch of talismans back, his position within the Ruyi Marquis Mansion would also be thoroughly stabilized.

If Lu Changsheng could provide middle-grade talismans on a stable basis in the future, the position of the heir apparent wouldn’t be so far out of reach.

“Alright, I naturally trust Brother Lu.”

Hong Yi did not inspect the contents carefully, taking only a few glances before closing the brocade box again.

He then took out one hundred and twelve Spirit Stones from his storage bag and handed them to Lu Changsheng.

“Thank you, Brother Hong.”

Lu Changsheng, seeing this, did not mind the two missing Spirit Stones and happily accepted them.

“Brother Lu is being too polite. It is I who should thank you.”

“I’ve also prepared a gift for Brother Lu on this trip.”

Hong Yi smiled and waved his hand, then turned towards the carriage and clapped his hands.

“A gift?”

Lu Changsheng was surprised.

Next to the carriage, a burly figure, who could vaguely be made out to be a woman, pulled open the curtain of the carriage door.

Following that, a series of crisp bell sounds ‘dinged’ from the interior of the carriage.

A red-haired woman with beautiful green eyes, a high nose, fair and moist skin, and a ravishing appearance that exuded an exotic charm peeked out from the carriage.

The woman wore a red veil over her face and hair, dressed in a red off-the-shoulder, belly-baring dress, revealing a fair swan-like neck, delicate collarbones, and a flat belly.

With beautiful fair arms lightly lifting her red dress, she stepped out with a curvaceous and enchanting figure, revealing a surprisingly long and beautiful leg from under her skirt as she stepped down from the carriage, her toes gently touching the ground.

Her thighs were plump and firm, her calves long and powerful, with bare feet unadorned with shoes or socks, her ten delicate toes painted with crimson juice, shining against her fair skin.

On her finely boned ankles, she wore a pair of golden anklets, each adorned with two tiny bells that gave off a ‘dinging’ sound.

This red-haired woman with an exotic allure stepped down from the carriage, curtseyed gracefully to Lu Changsheng, her glances were as seductive as a teasing fox.

Soon after, another set of crisp bell sounds came from inside the carriage.

A woman, very similar in appearance to the red-haired one, also with high nose and deep-set eyes exuding an exotic charm, stepped out from inside the carriage.

Unlike the red-haired woman, this one had sea-blue hair and eyes.

Compared to the voluptuous charm of the red-haired woman, her facial expression was somewhat indifferent, giving an impression of a cooler, seductive beauty.

The two women looked very much alike.

But the pupils, hair color, attire, and temperament were completely different, standing side by side, they presented a uniquely stunning effect.

Subsequently, the two long-legged, exotic beauties walked towards Lu Changsheng with large strides, each with a distinctly different style of walking.

Their footsteps were light and their skin white and tender; as they moved gracefully, their red and moist bare feet painted with rouge did not pick up a speck of dust.

Lu Changsheng could tell at a glance that both women were martial artists.

This was due to channeling internal energy to their feet, which allowed them to be unblemished by dust.

“Jiu’er pays respect to the master.”

“Shui’er pays respect to the master.”

The two women stood in front of Lu Changsheng and gave a graceful bow.

One’s voice was soft and seductive like Wu Nong’s gentle whisper.

The other’s voice was as cold as ice, yet it stirred desires within the heart.

Hearing the two women call him master, Lu Changsheng’s brows slightly knitted together.

When he saw the two women coming down from the carriage, he vaguely guessed what the gift was.

But at this moment, he confirmed that the gift Hong Yi referred to were the two women before him.

He had to admit that the two women were indeed beautiful and tempting, capable of arousing people’s desires.

Especially because their appearances were similar yet their temperaments and charms were so different, it added an element of surprise for anyone seeing them for the first time.

It made Lu Changsheng think of the sisters he had seen at the bamboo heart lake of the Lu Family, Lu Miaoge.

They too shared a resemblance, yet their personalities and temperaments were entirely different.

But the problem was,

since when was it customary to give women away as gifts?

Although in this world, such a thing was considered normal,

faced with this situation, Lu Changsheng still felt it was weird and somewhat awkward.
