I Have No Qualifications, The System Asked Me To Marry A Wife To Practice
Chapter 20 Matchmaking
Chu Shen raised an eyebrow after hearing Yu Yazhi's words and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Yu Yazhi smiled and replied, "Chu Lao Ye is being too modest. You now have land, money, shops, and houses. Your life is so prosperous, just like in Nanping City."
He then raised his thumb and continued, "On the other hand, many seemingly glamorous families have been struggling for years. Take the Bunker Street, not far from Yangliu Lane, for example. Do you know about the West City Martial Arts Hall?"
Chu Shen was surprised to hear about some hidden gossip in the city. He decided to listen first.
"Of course I know. The training grounds set up by the three major martial arts sects in Nanping City are not accessible to ordinary people. Most people who want to learn a move or two have to go to the West City Martial Arts Hall or the East City Martial Arts Hall."
"Although the West City Martial Arts Hall accepts ordinary disciples and doesn't have the same prestige as the East City Martial Arts Hall, which caters to the wealthy, the owner, Martial Master Wu, is from the Yunshan Sword Sect. The hall has been open for over thirty years and has a great reputation."
The Yunshan Sword Sect is one of the three major martial arts sects in Nanping City, along with the Taiping Sect and the Yangyuan Sect. Just a stomp of their feet would shake the entire city.
The owner of the West City Martial Arts Hall, Martial Master Wu Xiongshan, was originally a commoner. His achievements today are due to his background as a disciple of the Yunshan Sword Sect.
Yu Yazhi grinned, leaned forward, and whispered, "The West City Martial Arts Hall is a typical case of a flashy appearance but empty inside."
Chu Shen was extremely surprised and leaned in as well, asking, "Tell me more!"
Yu Yazhi continued in a low voice, "Martial Master Wu Xiongshan is a good man, but his background is too low. Although he learned martial arts from the Yunshan Sword Sect, he also owes a lot of debts.
The West City Martial Arts Hall seems to be making a lot of money, but in reality, most of it has to be sent to the Yunshan Sword Sect to repay the expenses of his training."
Unfortunately, Old Master Wu is a man of principles and takes good care of the disciples in his martial arts school. Whenever a family encounters a disaster, he often lends a helping hand.
Over the past thirty years or so, the reputation of the West City Martial Arts School and Old Master Wu has grown, but their financial situation has become increasingly tight.
As a result, in the past couple of years, natural disasters and misfortunes have caused a lot of trouble. Many disciples have been affected and have chosen to leave the martial arts school. This has led to a significant decrease in income for the school. However, Old Master Wu still manages to find money to support those disciples who have been severely affected by the disasters. It seems that the expenses are exceeding the income.
In my opinion, Old Master Wu's situation is not as good as yours, Lord Chu!
Chu Shen knew that Yuya's words were exaggerated. The West City Martial Arts School had accumulated wealth over the past thirty years, and even though they faced difficulties in recent years, it was not to the extent of selling their daughters.
However, what about those families whose businesses were not as prosperous as the West City Martial Arts School and who faced even greater challenges?
Indeed, that is a possibility.
But...
"I have never dealt with such matters before, and I am not familiar with many places in Nanping City. I will have to rely on you, my friend Yuya!" Chu Shen took out a silver ingot and placed it in front of Yuya.
Yuya didn't provide the information just to gossip. Ultimately, he was indicating that he could handle the matter and wanted Chu Shen to entrust it to him.
With a wave of his sleeve, Yuya made the silver disappear. After weighing it, he had a pleased expression on his face and confidently said, "Lord Chu, rest assured, I will handle this matter properly!"
...
It didn't take long for Chu Shen to wait.
The next day, Yu Yazhi came to the door again.
"Lord Chu, I have fulfilled your request and found some candidates. Please make your selection."
As he spoke, he placed a scroll in front of Chu Shen.
Chu Shen glanced at Yu Yazhi, picked up the scroll, and opened it, revealing a look of surprise.
Inside the scroll was actually a video, with a young girl with a sorrowful expression as the main character. She looked ahead with a forced smile, incredibly vivid and lifelike.
"What is this..."
Yu Yazhi said proudly, "This is a magical artifact called the 'Image-Reflecting Scroll.' It is a treasure that only our most esteemed customers at the dental clinic would use. Lord Chu, as our youngest esteemed customer and considering the matter of taking a concubine, we naturally want to handle it beautifully for you."
Come to think of it, the mortals in the Dongxuan Realm may live a difficult life, but they bear the burden and move forward for the sake of the peaceful years of the royal nobles and the practitioners of the major sects. They may not be able to afford precious artifacts, but how could the upper-class individuals who have reached a certain level not have any contact with them?
"Who is this girl?"
"She is the third miss of the Hu family from the Distant Fragrance Hall."
Chu Shen was surprised, "Is the Hu family willing to let her become a concubine?"
The Distant Fragrance Hall is also in the cosmetics business, similar to the Chu family. The difference is that the Chu family's shop is thriving, while the Distant Fragrance Hall's business is declining.
The reason lies in the fact that Yuan Xiang Tang is a sales business and does not engage in production. As a result, under natural disasters and man-made calamities, there is chaos everywhere, and their suppliers are also severely affected. Some suppliers even went bankrupt directly in the disaster. Naturally, it becomes difficult to continue doing business.
On the other hand, Chu Jia Pu Zi has mastered core technology, can produce their own products, constantly innovate, and have effective marketing strategies. As a result, they continuously gain recognition from customers.
In this way, as one side grows, the Hu family, who has been in business for a long time, knows very well that danger is right in front of them.
Coincidentally, Chu Shen wants to take a concubine and intends to establish a marital relationship with the third Miss Hu as a mediator. At the same time, they can cooperate in business, solving the predicament of Yuan Xiang Tang and forming an alliance with the new force, further occupying the market in Nanping City. If they can achieve a monopoly alliance, it would be even better.
After hearing Yu Yazhi's account, Chu Shen couldn't help but admire the shrewdness and decisiveness of the Hu family. Sacrificing one third Miss Hu, everything else goes according to plan!
"I will consider it again," he said.
As he spoke, he intended to close the picture scroll and return it to Yu Yazhi.
Unexpectedly, Yu Yazhi said, "Master Chu, please wait, there is another candidate behind!"
As he said that, he made a stroke on the picture scroll, and the image of a different woman appeared.
Wow, if I didn't know that this thing was a magical tool created by cultivators, I would have thought it was some kind of special tablet.
Have cultivators already played around with magical tools to this extent?
