Chapter 637: Chapter 306 Cunning Luo Ze_2
“And then, the situation within the Great Flame Dynasty became increasingly chaotic,”
“And those common people, merchants, or even some influential figures that were originally within the Great Flame Dynasty,”
“All fled from the Great Flame Dynasty during this period.”
“Although, many were intercepted by various local forces along the way,”
“there was still a substantial number of people who poured into our Qingshi City.”
As he spoke, Luo Yao suddenly glanced at Luo Ze, who was listening attentively, and then added, “You should know, although the laws in our Qingshi City are fair and just, they are not absolutely so, but apart from the people of the Qingshi City Luo Family enjoying privileges, others can hardly escape punishment by the law.”
“Hence, our Qingshi City, which the Luo Family controls, enjoys a very high reputation in the Da Feng Dynasty and even in regions beyond the Da Feng Dynasty,”
“And now, the chaos in the Great Flame Dynasty has begun to surface.”
“Naturally, countless people will flood into the Qingshi City where our Luo Family resides.”
“So, it might be fine for a short while, but if it drags on, problems will arise.”
Luo Ze interjected softly, “Do you mean that too many common people have been flooding into our Qingshi City?”
Luo Yao nodded silently, speaking softly, “Indeed.”

“So, do you have any good solutions for the current situation, young man?”
After thinking for a moment, Luo Ze replied, “Otherwise, delegate this task?”
“Hasn’t our Family Head established a think tank?”
“Why not let those people in the think tank handle it?”
Luo Yao glanced at Luo Ze by his side and chuckled softly, “I thought of your idea right from the start, and it’s feasible. Those who can enter the think tank should be no fools; they can handle this matter easily. But…”
While speaking, Luo Yao suddenly paused.
Afterward, he sighed softly and continued, “However, if I truly hand this matter over to the think tank, although it will be dealt with swiftly, those in the think tank will inevitably profit immensely from it.”
“Therefore, I’m rather reluctant to delegate this matter.”
“You get my dilemma, don’t you, young man?”
After some thought, Luo Ze replied, “So you mean, you don’t want to let others off too easily?”
Luo Yao nodded silently.
This matter was definitively a lucrative opportunity.
If he simply handed it over to the people in the think tank,
he would truly feel a bit…
Uncomfortable.
However, if Luo Yao were to personally handle it,
he would probably lose half his life doing so.
That’s why Luo Yao was in such a dilemma.
“Not wanting to give others an easy profit,”
“But also wanting some ease.”
“Why not treat this matter as a business venture?”
Luo Ze said quietly, and upon hearing this, Luo Yao’s eyebrows slightly frowned.
It seemed that he didn’t quite grasp the meaning of the younger man’s words.
But then, after a moment,
It appeared as though Luo Yao had an epiphany,
He turned his head and looked at Luo Ze beside him with an extremely surprised gaze, as if he was seeing him for the first time.
“Are you suggesting that I use this matter to make money? Making the offer affordable only to the highest bidder?”
A hint of slyness flickered in Luo Ze’s eyes, but he quickly shook his head and retorted, “I never said that. These are all your words, none of my concern.”
Having said that,
Luo Ze silently picked up the longsword beside him.
Step by step, he steadily walked forward.
“I’ve rested enough.”
“It’s time for sword training.”
“Brother, do as you please.”
“If you have matters to take care of, just leave. There’s no need to worry about me,”
With that,
Luo Ze tightly gripped the Spiritual Sword in his hands.
His eyes and his being
soon emanated a sword intent so intense it seemed almost tangible.
And as Luo Ze slowly raised the longsword in his hands, then slowly brought it down again,
Luo Ze himself seemed to transform into someone else entirely.
Cold, distant, sharp, capable of cutting down all things.
This was roughly the impression that Luo Ze at that moment gave Luo Yao.
“What a pity…”
Standing silently by the towering tree, observing the scene, Luo Yao sighed with a hint of regret.
Years of daily sword practice, and this young fellow Luo Ze had finally made some progress.
He had even developed his own Sword Dao.
It’s just a pity,
that this young man’s cultivation talent is so poor it’s almost unbelievable.
While others cultivate for a single day, Luo Ze needs to cultivate for five days, ten days, or even longer.
Sometimes, Luo Yao would wonder,
“Could this boy be someone cursed by the heavens?”
With such unwavering will, yet such poor talent.
However, upon further thought,
Luo Yao would discard the notion of the boy being cursed from his mind.
After all, if Luo Ze really were cursed,
He probably wouldn’t have been born within the Luo Family Ancestral Land, becoming a member of the Luo Family.
“Ah, let it be…”
He muttered to himself,
then quietly turned around with his hands clasped behind his back and slowly walked toward the distance.
What puzzled Luo Yao, however,
was that Luo Ze, the young man whose heart seemed only to lie with the longsword in his hand,
how could such a boy come up with such…
Such…
Such a good solution?
Conduct business?
Whoever offers the highest price gets the deal?
Heh, thinking about it this way,
it seems quite feasible.
After all, the Family Head only desires a result.
And the population that Qingshi City can accommodate is fixed.
Who is allowed in, isn’t that up to us?
And if someone were to argue this is unfair or discriminatory,
Luo Yao could only respond with a wry smile and remain silent.
There has never been true fairness or justice in this world.
Wherever there are people, there will always be special treatment.
That’s just how the world is.
Cold, cruel, real.
Yet it deeply fascinates countless people.
“Next, let’s proceed according to that kid Luo Ze’s plan.”
“I’m curious what kind of price those people in the think tank are willing to pay for this task.”
On his way,
Luo Yao entertained the thought and felt a mix of excitement and pleasure.
Excited that he no longer had to worry about these matters,
and delighted that soon,
he might gain an extremely generous profit, so immense that it seemed almost unbelievable.
…
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
In the room of the Luo Family Patriarch within the Luo Family Ancestral Land of Qingshi City,
there sat Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family.
He was meditating in the main seat,
sipping tea while silently reviewing the cumbersome government affairs documents in his hands.
Fortunately, these affairs had already been dealt with.
Otherwise, if he had to personally attend to these unresolved matters,
even if he worked himself to death without eating or drinking,
he would likely never finish them all.
“Someone come.”
Suddenly, Luo Ping called out in a low voice.
Following Luo Ping’s voice, a somewhat fuzzy figure appeared instantaneously in the room.
This person was dressed in a black robe, his head slightly lowered.
His face, though buried in shadows and somewhat obscure,
the respect he had for Luo Ping
was without a doubt.
