Hybrid Spiritual Plant Cultivation

Chapter 102: Fight the Rich and Get Gold Coins

"Chen Jing, Chen Jing, I'm out of seclusion. How's your stay at Juetian Peak?"

Hua Qingxia, lively and energetic, appeared in front of Chen Jing.

Chen Jing was getting ready to go out.

When he heard the doors of Wantong Room opening one by one until they reached the inner courtyard, he knew it was Hua Qingxia. The authority of Wantong Room, which was directly connected to the mansion, could be opened up to here, and he had only given it to one person at the moment.

When we arrived at the inner courtyard, it was as expected.

Hua Qingxia was wearing a crimson brocade dress at this time. The hem of the skirt swayed gently with her steps, and the cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread sparkled brightly in the sun.

A thin tassel belt is tied around the waist, outlining the slim figure.

Chen Jing looked him up and down.

"I feel very comfortable here, and my sister seems to be doing well as well."

"It was a blessing in disguise. I made a small progress!"

Hua Qingxia puffed out her chest, feeling very proud.

"Are you ready to go out?"

She asked immediately.

"Yes, Senior Sister, you came at the right time. I wonder how much you know about the wealthy families in the lower five prefectures. How can I contact them?"

"Just look for their direct disciples who have joined the sect. After the disciples of the powerful families join the sect, they will stick together. For example, the four powerful families in Anning Prefecture have had some disciples in each peak over the years. Whoever you want to find, I will take you with me."

Chen Jing was naturally happy about this. He thought that Teacher Yun Tianxia was worthy of being a righteous teacher and should be rewarded with a little red flower.

"Disciples from wealthy families who join the sect rarely have any contact with the clan anymore. After all, they join the sect too early, at the age of 20, and stay in the sect for half their lives. If they are not direct descendants, it is difficult for them to get support from the clan, and gradually their connection fades. However, within the sect, they will still gather around the direct descendants of the clan. It is always better to be together than to be alone."

"Is Senior Sister also from a noble family?"

"I am also from Anning Prefecture, but my master brought me to the sect when I was a child. I heard from my master that I was a naughty village urchin."

"Where are the original relatives?"

"My parents sold me because it was not cost-effective to raise a girl. After my master took me away, he just found a place for me in Chuhetang. The sect provided me with food and drink, and there were many people to play with me. After I grew up, I had good aptitude for cultivation, so my master took me in as his true disciple."

"..."

Chen Jing looked at Hua Qingxia. There was nothing unusual about her. It was obvious that she was living a good life after joining the sect.

immediately.

He had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

I vaguely remember that my father once said that when I was still young, a big shot of the Qingnang Sect once took in a village urchin as his apprentice in Anning Prefecture. The child was about the same age as me.

"How old is Senior Sister?"

"twenty-three."

"Only three years older than me."

"Hey, I felt so mature, but it turns out I'm still so young!"

"Maturity... I agree with some of it."

Chen Jing's eyes were upright.

No random looking.

Under the leadership of Hua Qingxia, he found the direct descendants of the wealthy families in the neighboring prefectures.

In the capital city, they are high-ranking noblemen, and in the sect... they are not bad either, at least they can get the status of private capital.

When the direct descendants of a wealthy family join the sect, naturally there will be side branches and vassal families that develop around them. There is strength in numbers, and after quickly accumulating the initial capital, they can start making money from practicing all kinds of arts.

It is extremely rare for a true commoner disciple like Liu Guanhai to finally compete with the direct disciple of a wealthy family.

"I thought the whole sect was full of fishermen."

"Fishing is one of the hundred arts of cultivation. Junior brother, don't be fooled by appearances. Nowadays, the ways of cultivators are strange and bizarre. Maybe their great aspirations are related to fishing."

Really fishing out of the realm.

Chen Jing has a new understanding of spiritual practice.

Some people live a life like the ancient monks, realizing and practicing their own way through practicing hundreds of arts, and obtaining feedback from the great way.

There are also people who accumulate resources through business and industry, and use a large amount of resources to forcibly break through the path of cultivation.

From a personal perspective, there is no difference between the two, only the one that suits you best.

But in terms of sect development, the second path is definitely better, because the second path is replicable and sustainable.

Then Chen Jing had a discussion with the descendants of these powerful families.

Once the identity of the true disciple was revealed, these noble brothers and sisters were very easy to talk to. They all said that this matter would be conveyed to the clan as soon as possible and that they would give an accurate reply.

There is no teleportation array in Suizhou, and the most common means of transportation is the practitioners themselves. Of course, if one is willing to pay a little spirit stone as a price, one can also use the sound guide to transmit sound over thousands of miles.

So Chen Jing was also prepared that the discussion might not be finished in a short time.

Anyway, Anning Prefecture can be taken.

After all, Ying Huiyin, the future junior sister, is now the village bully of the Novice Village in Anning Prefecture.

And just as he expected.

The other disciples of the powerful families all said they were waiting for a reply.

Only the direct descendants of the four great families in Anning Mansion said that there was no problem at all and hoped that it would be implemented as soon as possible...

But strictly speaking, they are no longer "direct descendants".

Because the true direct line had been defeated, the side branch took advantage of this period of time to cheer for Ying Huiyin and gradually gained control of the family power.

Of course, these are all minor issues. Once you join a sect, all priorities are the interests of the sect.

For the disciples who have already joined the sect and established themselves, it doesn't really matter which faction is in charge, because their interests are not much involved. The reason why the nobles of Anning Mansion are so supportive of this deal is another direct reason.

The status of a direct disciple in the Qingnang Sect is equivalent to that of a prince.

Now the "capital" has moved to Anning Prefecture, and two great princes were born in Anning Prefecture.

For the wealthy families in the other four prefectures, buying Dao seeds was just a business issue, but for the wealthy families in Anning Prefecture, it was a political issue.

As the wealthy family of Anning Prefecture, no one, inside or outside the sect, would be able to sleep well if they dared not to support the prince in starting his own business.

Among them, only the Ying family is slightly special because one of their direct disciples is a member of the Ying family, but this is not a reason for them to disrespect the other direct disciple.

Chen Jing had anticipated this and was happy about it. If one does not make use of his status, then he would be a fool.

He has long wanted to fight against the local tyrants.

Mi, Duan, Ying, and Lai, the four direct descendants, each immediately contributed 200,000 to buy the Tao seeds.

The price set by Chen Jing for the first batch was not high.

After all, it’s a matter of small profits but quick turnover, and we don’t make money from this… Of course, good entries don’t count.

Ordinary white Tao seed, 100 points of contribution per one.

Green Tao Seed, 200~500 contributions per one.

It mainly depends on the entry. If the entry has good effect, it will be sold at a higher price.

However, the four representatives only bought a little green Tao seeds symbolically. It was obvious that they only wanted the ones with the lowest price. They didn’t even want to buy the ones with the lowest price. They just wanted to use the white Tao seeds to make up the number.

They are just cattle and horses. There is no need for ordinary qualifications.

I bought a little just for Chen Jing's sake.

Finally, there is the blue Tao seed.

Limited to 10 pieces for sale, 5000 contributions per piece.

The blue Dao Seeds made them extremely concerned, saying that ten were not enough to buy. But Chen Jing could not give away the real good stuff so easily, so he directly refused.

Didn't refuse too hard.

Chen Jing said that if there are no problems with the first batch of Dao seeds, there will be more quotas for blue Dao seeds.

The problem here is that he proposed the minimum treatment for spiritual plant cultivators and drew a red line.

No matter what, we cannot let the people who have been implanted with the seeds of Tao go hungry.

Specifically, if a full set of tools is provided, taxes cannot be higher than 90%, taxes cannot be collected for more than ten years, and a new agreement must be signed after ten years.

It took quite a bit of effort, but because of the unequal status between them, Chen Jing still managed to put many shackles on the other party successfully.

Although the class characteristics of the powerful families are annexation and exploitation, as long as they are suppressed by their superiors and are "under the feet of the emperor", there is no need to worry about any serious problems in the short term.

“Making money so fast…”

Hua Qingxia, who witnessed the whole thing, was completely confused.

In just a short while, she earned the contribution points equivalent to her monthly industry income, and it seemed effortless.

Your start and my start seem to be different...

"Why did I not think straight back then? I chose this path. Not only did I not dare to tell anyone, but I also couldn't make money."

Hua Qingxia fell into self-doubt.

She didn't know yet that Chen Jing had an order of one million spirit stones from Zhenxiu Pavilion, and also had a large order of two million contributions per year from her own Chuhetang.

"Senior sister, you are different from others. Don't waste your talent on making money."

“It feels like you’re scolding me.”

"Impossible, I am the only one in the world who respects my senior sister the most."

"Then give me money!"

"No, that won't work. They are all capital, but I promise to make money with you. You don't have to worry about anything. Just lie down and wait for the contribution points to arrive."

"Really? Then I believe it!"

Seeing Chen Jing nodding, Hua Qingxia suddenly became happy, with curved eyebrows.

Although he hasn't started making money without doing anything, he has already fallen into the joy of it, thinking about whether to change to the latest magical weapon or get a newest flying boat.

Follow up.

The wealthy families in the remaining four prefectures also responded one after another, expressing their willingness to purchase Dao seeds.

Of course, the support is not as great as that from the local folks in Anning Prefecture. Each family purchased about 100,000 contribution seeds, no more, no less, just a small token of their appreciation.

Chen Jing was already satisfied with this. After all, his original intention was to expand the number of spiritual plant cultivators and obtain some social samples, etc. It didn't matter how much he earned from his contribution.

In the latest February, after the dividends of 43 contribution points and living expenses were received.

Chen Jing’s total savings reached 499 million contribution points and 100 million spirit stones.

If he calculated that one new hybrid monk cost 250 contribution points, he could now develop 19600 spiritual plant monks!
"Although it's not the time to plant rice yet, it's not bad to warm up the spiritual fields early. In addition, since we can't plant Peiyuan rice in the next two months, we can take the opportunity to plant some spiritual vegetables. In this case, let's officially start the first round."

Think again and again.

Chen Jing made some adjustments and decided on the plan for three days later.

Since the project was postponed two months in advance, the cost of each additional spiritual plant cultivator also increased by two months, and since we had a little more money on hand, we increased the budget a little.

Therefore, the cost of adding a new monk reached 400 contribution points.

Keep another 50 yuan on hand to contribute to cope with emergencies.

So the final number of places is: 8,700.
