Chapter 214 There is a trading house
"The gift of fate has already been marked with a secret price. It's not that easy to be free."
Wangshu Fucheng, in a trading firm named Youjian Trading Firm.
Yu Xian, who had just arrived, leaned casually on an old man's chair and looked through the merit records of the preliminary members of the Datong Association, feeling a little emotional.
Zhao Shiwen stood aside, Li Duo smiled slightly and praised softly.
"My master is still very powerful. Just a few simple numbers can make a group of fake elixir masters risk their lives. In the past few years, the goods in the trading house have been unable to be sold."
In order to collect merit as soon as possible and regain their freedom, the preparatory members of the Datong Association, who were free from the pressure of tasks in the association, not only hunted the demon king, but also searched for resources in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains as much as possible in exchange for merit.
In this regard, Yuxian will certainly not squeeze them too much.
Instead, they purchased them at the market price, and then exchanged them for merit points at the price of ten thousand spirit stones per merit point.
After all, what he paid was a bunch of numbers, but what he got in return were real resources.
And these resources obtained from the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range can be circulated from the market through the Youjian Trading Company controlled by Zhao Shiwen, and turned into real spiritual stones and returned to his hands.
Youjian Trading Company was founded five years ago when Datonghui entered a period of rapid development.
The prototype is the caravan founded by Zhao Shiwen when the group first arrived in Qiufeng County. Later, they developed their own business routes and intelligence network through the channels of the Li family and entered Wangshu City.
After initially figuring out the Fucheng market, the caravan began to upgrade as planned, and the prototype of Youjian Trading Company was formed.
Later, with the help of the "selfless dedication" of many preparatory members of the Datong Society.
One store was able to compete effortlessly with other stores on the market at prices slightly lower than the market price, and it began to develop rapidly.
In just a few years, a trading firm has gained quite a reputation in Wangshufu City.
Of course, in the process of development, it is inevitable that some people will come to trouble us.
But facing Youjian Trading Company, which has a queen bee in charge, can also arrange a large fog prison formation to cover up the movement, and can also pull out a dozen fake Dan real people to form a group to act as assassins when necessary.
All competitors who resorted to dirty tricks were killed or injured. One Jindan master died unexpectedly, and even the murderer could not be found out.
As for head-on competition and price war...
There is a store that doesn't promise to give away products for free, but it guarantees 50% off sales for a period of time without any pressure.
The other competitors were immediately beaten to the bitter end.
After all, it’s not like every family has a group of fake Danzhen people working as free labor behind them.
Costs don't disappear, they just get shifted in some way.
Later, in any market where a trading house was involved, other shops avoided it and did not dare to compete with it.
Fortunately, there is a trading house that has only been established for a short period of time and lacks cooperation with high-level professionals. It is mainly engaged in the trading of raw materials.
Since the shipping price is still low, many stores have seized the opportunity and reduced costs through the channels of Youjian Commercial Bank, which in turn has increased profitability.
Therefore, he passively became an ally of Youjian Trading Company.
After several years of development, a trading company soon monopolized most of the mid- to low-end resource output in the demon vein in Fucheng.
Even if the other monks who are making a living in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains are not preparatory members of the Great Union, they can only sell their goods to a trading house because the shops that used to have stable transactions have changed their businesses.
Today, Youjian Trading Company is well-known in Wangshufu City.
Zhao Shiwen, the official spokesperson, is even known as the female goddess of wealth. She was selected into the private ranking list of female cultivators in Wangshu Fucheng. It is said that she ranks quite high.
Even the city lord's palace does not want to provoke such a fierce dragon crossing the river.
He does business seriously, and he also takes the initiative to pay business tax to the city lord's mansion every year. The tax amount is hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones a year, which everyone likes.
Similar to Qiufeng City, which is under the supervision of Magistrate Yan, Wangshu Fucheng is also difficult to collect taxes that should be difficult to collect even if it is a Fucheng.
Every elder is counting on the few acres of spiritual land and mines under his name.
You don't have to open more shops. Even if you don't open a shop because of your reputation, there will always be one of your disciples and friends who want to open one.
The money you earn from opening a store belongs to you. Naturally, the lower the taxes collected by the City Lord's Mansion, the better. It would be best not to charge them at all.
Therefore, the City Lord's Mansion would like to have as many trading houses as powerful and well-behaved as Youjian Trading Company, and even take the initiative to maintain them.
Several streets near a trading house have added patrol teams from the city lord's palace, just to serve these tax-paying pacesetters.
Back to business.
After checking the records of Datonghui's achievements, Yu Xian reminded:
“Updates on meritorious deeds will be sent to each member every month to tell them that their contribution will always be remembered in the association.
Only in this way will they have the motivation and hope to continue.
This is very important, don't forget it. "
Zhao Shiwen nodded: "Now that the commercial bank's business network has initially covered the entire city, this information can be easily delivered. I am personally responsible for this matter and will not forget it."
"Um."
Yu Xian nodded and said with some regret:
"It's a pity that the current technical reserves in the association are still too poor. If they can develop remote contact and a magic weapon that can update merit records in real time, I believe their motivation to complete the mission will be even stronger."
Zhao Shiwen shook her head and laughed: "Master, you are thinking too wildly again. Even if such a magic weapon exists, it must be worth a lot of money. How can it be possible for everyone to get one?
If they fall into the trap of the monster, our losses will be great. "
Yu Xian thought about the convenient and practical smartphones in his previous life and was unconvinced.
If he hadn't returned all his knowledge to the teacher after finishing the college entrance examination, he would have become an illiterate with a higher education.
It's just based on the knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry he has learned, plus his brain that has improved his intelligence many times through practice.
Maybe we can really use basic subject knowledge to launch a complete scientific system from scratch, and then we can study satellite launch technology in the world of immortality.
Do you understand what Tiandao Internet is?
Of course, the laws of the two worlds are most likely different. Even if a satellite is developed, it may not be able to be launched.
"But... when my magical power cannot be improved, I can try to use the spiritual energy of heaven to derive a magical weapon with similar functions."
Yu Xian suddenly thought of it, and then his thoughts diverged.
"It would be best to create something similar to the Lord God's Space. Then I will save the effort of sending out missions, and I won't have to worry about members of the Datong Association exposing information.
Alas, there are still not enough leeks. "
The aura of heaven is similar to the initiation and teaching of heaven, and all the principles of existence in this world will be included in it.
Theoretically, as long as the Heavenly Dao spiritual energy is sufficient, there is nothing that cannot be deduced, and it will be more effective than any Heavenly Mystery Technique.
"Just think I'm joking."
Yu Xian smiled, but still added.
"By the way, a ranking list will be added to the merit records given to them in the future. The number of meritorious deeds of other reserve members will be recorded on the ranking list.
With rankings, there is competition and there are role models.
For example, the monk who is currently ranked number one, codenamed Laogui, has only been a member of the Datong Society for a few years and has accumulated more than 600 meritorious deeds. It seems that he will be able to regain his freedom in a short time. "
Zhao Shiwen wrote them down one by one, but she was still a little confused.
"Master, if he has really collected enough merits, do we really want to let him go free?"
Yu Xian said as a matter of course: "Of course."
Zhao Shiwen said: "But we don't have the method to check and balance him. What if he betrays us?"
Yu Xian smiled and said: "A betrayal is a betrayal, so what does it matter? Who among us has he seen from the beginning to the end? He has never seen anyone, right?
The little information he knows will soon be known to anyone who wants to investigate.
If he really wants to go against us, he will be killed as a fake alchemy monk with no future.
On the contrary, if we do not keep our word, or find excuses to continue to deprive others of their freedom, others will lose confidence and will not work hard to complete the task.
So I hope he can get up to 1,000 merit points as soon as possible.
This means that the merit quota we set is not a fantasy, they are capable of completing it.
And if he has gathered enough 1,000 merit points, it means that he has earned 10 million spirit stones for me. Why should I restrict his freedom before it is too late to thank him.
In the end, do you think he will really be willing to leave?
A helpless casual cultivator, now a huge organization has revealed the tip of the iceberg and invites him to become a formal member.
Would he be willing to pay so much just to leave?
When he officially joins, we only need to share a part of the profits with him. We don't even need to give him any benefits, just give him a name.
For example, let him go to another city to establish a branch of the Datong Association, repeat our operations in Wangshu City, and then let us give him a little support from behind to help him get through the initial pressure.
When his own interests are inseparable from the Datong Association, he will support the existence of our Datong Association more than anyone else. Anyone who dares to oppose the Datong Association is his enemy.
Not just him, any freed member in the future can give him a title and let him repeat this operation himself.
It’s a big profit for us.
If it fails, we will lose at most two Five Elements Yuan Dan. Compared with the profits they have created for me, there is no pressure at all. "
Zhao Shiwen's heart surged when she heard it. Even thinking about the prospects described by Yu Xian made her feel weak and unable to control herself.
With the help of these formal members, the tentacles of the Datong Association extend to all Tiancheng, all prefectural cities, and even the entire Xuanyang Realm.
So what kind of role will she become as Yu Xian's right-hand man?
At the same time, she looked at Yu Xian with eyes full of admiration, admiration, and enthusiasm.
This man is so great.
Hidden beneath the lazy and carefree appearance are the dangers of the mountains and rivers, the depth of the city, and the fact that he has already planned the entire Xuanyang Realm in the Golden Core Realm.
As a witness to Yu Xian's step-by-step progress, Zhao Shiwen couldn't help but feel grateful again for her bravery that day, which allowed her to follow such a man.
"certainly……"
Yu Xian interrupted Zhao Shiwen's beautiful fantasy, rubbed his brow helplessly and said:
"To realize this beautiful vision, the first step is to allow Datong to survive the next blow."
Zhao Shiwen frowned and said, "Is it because Jinpeng Demon Emperor made a big fuss in Mingyue Tiancheng before?"
As the intelligence liaison of the Datong Society, a lot of information has to pass through her hands, so she naturally knows the difficulties that the Datong Society faces.
But she is more optimistic than Yu Xian.
Yu Xian sighed and said: "Yes, the Datong Association has grown so fast, and the continuous recruitment of people to join the association has already attracted the attention of the city.
In addition, the Jinpeng Demon Emperor made trouble in Mingyue Tiancheng not long ago. I think it won't be long before the Datong Society is forced to surface.
You know the true strength of Datonghui.
Not to mention that if the True Lord of Yue Tian City takes action, even if Palace Master Wangshu in the late Jindan stage takes action, we will not be able to confront him head-on. "
Zhao Shiwen finally gained experience. When faced with such an existential crisis, she just took a deep breath and analyzed it calmly.
"We have a single line of contact with the preliminary members of the Datong Association, and we are not afraid that they will follow the clues and find us.
Even if they are caught and coerced, they will not be able to tell us. On the contrary, once we find something is wrong, we can quickly kill them.
From this aspect, we are all safe. The most serious situation is the loss of a few fake elixirs.
However, Datonghui has been hiding behind the scenes, and what they do most is hunting the demon king, which has no conflict with Xuanyang Sect's interests for the time being.
Therefore, even if the Jinpeng Demon King knew that the Demon King was killed by the Datong Association, unless Palace Master Wangshu took the initiative to assist him in capturing the members of the Datong Association.
Otherwise, even if Jinpeng Demon Emperor wants to seek revenge from the Datong Society, he will not be able to find anyone for a while.
As for the Wangshu Palace Master you are worried about personally taking action, I don’t think it will happen.
Datonghui has no grievances against him. How could he risk going against an organization that has more than ten or twenty Jindan real people just for the sake of the anger of a demon emperor?
Moreover, if such a big problem occurs under his management, he will also be punished by his superiors.
As far as I know, Master Wangshu is nearly four hundred years old and does not have much time left. His creed has always been that doing more is worse than doing less.
If we can reach some tacit understanding with him secretly, we don't need his active help.
As long as he turns a blind eye, it will be extremely difficult for the Jinpeng Demon Emperor to find us.
After all, he is the Demon King, not the True King.
Xuanyang Sect now has eight heavenly cities, and there are more than a dozen Nascent Soul Lords. Even if it is for the sake of the sect's face, how can they tolerate a demon king messing around in their territory.
So I think the difficulty of this matter lies in the attitude of Palace Master Wangshu. "
Zhao Shiwen's expression gradually became calmer, and she felt as if she had suddenly realized something, and her eyes seemed to be shining when looking at Yu Xian.
"I think this is the reason why the master came to Fucheng."
"Master, do you think my answer is satisfactory to you?"
Yu Xian reached out and pulled Zhao Shiwen into his arms, resting his chin on her chest, which was very stable.
"You are so smart now, but I can't live without you more and more."
Zhao Shiwen was caressed by Yu Xian's palm, her eyes watered, her body began to heat up, she snuggled into his arms, almost murmuring: "Shiwen will always be my master's."
The smell of pink roses in the air.
So, some singing and low humming...
An hour later.
Done.
Yu Xian tied up the jade belt around his waist and said:
"Shiwen, your current cultivation level is still a bit low, you are still in the early stage of foundation building, and you are a little slack.
Your qualifications are not bad. Even if you are unable to break through to the golden elixir realm in the future, it would be good to become a fake elixir cultivator if you reach the peak of foundation building.
Therefore, don’t neglect your practice on weekdays, otherwise it will be much more difficult to improve your practice after you are over a hundred years old. "
Yu Xian paused and said:
"Yulan has been breaking through to the middle stage of foundation building for quite some time. You also know how poor your sister Yulan's qualifications are. If she can do it, you can do it too."
Zhao Shiwen, who was wearing new clothes, originally wanted to act coquettishly and deny that she was not lazy, but was just busy on weekdays.
But when he heard that Yulan had broken through, he immediately panicked.
The matter of Magnolia taking the Reborn Xuan Dan has not been made public. This matter involves Chen Yi, and the fewer people know about it, the better.
So in Zhao Shiwen's eyes, Yulan was still the loser who relied solely on drugs to practice medicine.
They both took drugs and practiced cultivation, but her cultivation actually lagged behind!
"Master, don't worry, I will catch up with Sister Yulan soon."
Zhao Shiwen was decisive.
"Okay, very energetic."
Yu Xian uses the competitiveness among women to urge Zhao Shiwen's practice.
As a nostalgic person, he really didn't want Zhao Shiwen to leave him in another seventy or eighty years.
I have to work for him for at least another three to four hundred years.
"Compile the information about Master Wangshu and send it to me. The trading firm cannot come forward in this matter.
Nowadays, there is a trading house that is an old hen that lays golden eggs, and its connection with the Datong Society must not be discovered. "
Yu Xian ordered.
There is a trading company that now monopolizes the middle and low-level resources of the city in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains. Even without the resource supply from the Datong Association, it can still earn hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones a year.
Of course, without the resource supply from Datonghui, Youjian Trading Company's monopoly position would no longer exist, and this revenue would be cut in half immediately.
This is also the reason why Yu Xian took the initiative to move.
Datong Club has become his main source of income. Unless there is really no other way, he should save it if he can.
And Palace Master Wangshu is the target of his upcoming attack.
"Made, I always feel like there is collusion between government and businessmen. Obviously I want to rely on myself."
Yu Xian thought angrily.
"It's all because the damn Jinpeng Demon Emperor is looking for trouble, and he didn't kill your direct bloodline. Why is the reaction so big? Sooner or later, your whole family will be killed."
