Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 101: Two More Retainers Destitute Youth


Chen Dazhu instinctively glanced at the Purple-horned Deer beside him eating Autumn Grass. Back then, in gratitude for Fu Changsheng's life-saving grace, the old lady gifted him a Purple-horned Deer. Fu Changsheng wouldn't find one too few for breeding purposes and come asking for another male Purple-horned Deer, would he?!

Their family is almost too poor to keep the pot boiling.

Chen Dazhu discreetly shielded the Purple-horned Deer behind him.

Fu Changsheng maneuvered the Flying Ship to land, and without any beating around the bush, he cupped his hands and said frankly:

"I heard in the Marketplace that Fellow Daoist Cai, ever since the Li Family was annihilated, the Spirit Fields you rented were taken back by the Zhang Family. Now, do you have any Spirit Fields leased from others?"

Before Fairy Lady Cai could respond,

Chen Dazhu chimed in with a buzzing voice:

"In Anyang County, only your Five Great Families have extra Spirit Fields. Originally, we..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

For Fairy Lady Cai turned to glare at him fiercely, causing Chen Dazhu to shrink his neck and swallow his words of complaint, while Fairy Lady Cai smiled and said:

"Benefactor, we husband and wife have been idle at home for years, just thinking of teaming up with someone to hunt in the mountains."

"Fellow Daoist Cai, my clan has ninety acres of Spirit Fields requiring management. Do you think you and your spouse might be willing to help manage them? The reward is ten percent higher than what Zhang Family offered you previously."

Chen Dazhu was stunned.

Given that someone was willing to employ them, they were already deeply grateful, yet Fu Changsheng offered a reward ten percent higher than before.

Are there really such good things in the world?

He wondered if he wasn't dreaming.

Fairy Lady Cai was momentarily startled, then quickly responded:

"Benefactor, you offering us a job is already a great kindness; how could we ask for ten percent more in reward."

Hearing this,

Chen Dazhu instantly sobered up.

Whatever is this old woman thinking, pushing away Spirit Stones? Ready to speak up, yet Fairy Lady Cai shot a look, seeming to predict his thoughts, causing Chen Dazhu to immediately lose his spunk.

Fu Changsheng candidly said:

"Fellow Daoist Cai, I'm offering higher rewards, but there's a condition: you must live and eat in our Fu Family and sign a contract, with five years as a term. During these five years, whatever needs you may have, we can help procure, but you cannot leave the mountain gate."

After the betrayal by Li Guiming.

Even though he had a good impression of Fairy Lady Cai, to play safe, Fu Changsheng preferred not to have outsiders come and go freely or communicate with the outside world without restriction.

Accommodation and meals included.

Where could such a good deal be found?

They and their family had no regular contact with other relatives.

Fairy Lady Cai was naturally willing, but her gaze fell on the small house behind them, appearing somewhat hesitant:

"Benefactor, we have a daughter under our knees; could she also live within your mountain gate? Our Jade Lotus is most quiet, even at home never stepping outside her room for ten days and half a month, certainly not disturbing you."

"That's no problem, if convenient, pack up and you can leave with me now."

They were already sorting out their belongings, preparing to hunt in the mountains.

Fairy Lady Cai immediately expressed her endless gratitude:

"Benefactor, once we have gathered up the Array, we can depart at once."

"Hmm, space on the Flying Ship is limited, I will temporarily store your Purple-horned Deer in the Spirit Beast Bag."

Could they actually leave together on the Flying Ship?!

Fairy Lady Cai gratefully thanked him again, quickly gathered up the Array, turned into the small house, and after a while, she brought out her daughter clad entirely in a green cloak, revealing only her eyes, and the three boarded the Flying Ship.

When the Flying Ship stopped at the Niushou Mountain peak,

Chen Dazhu and his wife were long unable to come to grips.

Wasn't Niushou Mountain the Zhang Family's territory? How did it become Fu Family's overnight?

Realizing after a while.

Fairy Lady Cai's heart was greatly shaken.

Indeed, their Benefactor was remarkable, first killing the Li family, then the Zhang family, and now directly occupying this peak. Perhaps one day he might ascend to be a Ninth-Grade Noble Family.

The couple diligently helped with fieldwork.

When their years eventually came to an end.

The Benefactor might even, in recognition of their hardworking efforts, continue to shelter their daughter, providing a home for her.

Fu Changsheng briefly explained the precautions and introduced Molan and the fourth sister to Fairy Lady Cai and her husband, then returned to Luofeng Mountain.

As soon as he left.

Chen Dazhu, who had held back for a long time, spoke swiftly:

"Old woman, this... this job we can absolutely not do. The Zhang family has been eliminated, yet Zhang Clan Leader's daughter won't sit idly by, surely they'll find ways of revenge. If they attack Niushou Mountain, consider us their comrades and seek to kill us out of spite, wouldn't that be unjust!"

"You old fool, saying less would kill you or what?!"

Now the Shangguan Family's Grand Elder is Shangguan Feng.

Shangguan Feng declared seven years ago that anyone who touched Fu Changsheng would be in opposition to him, Zhang Clan Leader's daughter's Dao Companion Shangguan Hui, although also a Foundation Establishment Elder, is reportedly gravely injured and in seclusion for many years, evidently ruined. Otherwise, why would the Benefactor have attacked Niushou Mountain?

Fairy Lady Cai glared at Chen Dazhu harshly, warning:

"This place is nothing like our own home. From now on, think before you speak, next time watch how I handle you."

This is a tremendous opportunity for their family.

Absolutely mustn't let this old fool mess it up.

....

When Fu Changsheng returned to Luofeng Mountain, a familiar mechanical voice rang in his mind:

"Ding"

"You have recruited two Spirit Plant Cultivators for your clan, earning ten Clan Contribution Points."
