Bab 45: Chapter 45: The Omen of Fu Nian Making Amends Appears

The three major families of Suichuan Immortal City: the Songs mainly managed the elixir business, the Ges specialized in the selling of magic artifacts, and the Qis dominated the talisman trade.

However, unlike the Songs and the Ges, the Qis aggressively monopolized the talisman market, consistently suppressing the talisman businesses of loose cultivators and small families.

Originally, talisman crafting was a relatively easy cultivation skill to learn, but due to the overt and covert actions of the Qis, there were very few cultivators selling talismans in the Suichuan Immortal City market, and those who did mostly offered unconventional talismans.

Only the Hundred Treasures Pavilion was able to compete with the Qi family's shops to some degree, albeit the prices of the talismans in the pavilion were not very competitive.

This caused the Qi family's reputation among the lower tier cultivators to be rather poor.
