Douluo Continent: Kunxu Descends, Second-Player Players Are Stunned

Travel expenses?

Isn't this a disguised way of demanding overtime pay?

Qian Xunji's face darkened. As the chief disciple of Kunxu, he absolutely could not tolerate his subordinates asking him for overtime pay!

Your boss asking you to work overtime is a sign of appreciation. Instead of offering your boss a small gift to secure priority for overtime, you're asking for overtime pay!

No wonder the ghost doesn't have a 100,000-year soul ring.

What a blind fool!

The ghost, ignoring all that, professionally produced a pricing schedule: "Living Person Delivery, available throughout the entire continent. Contra delivery flat rate: 800 Gold Soul Coins/trip. Time limit: Within one day, up to 70% refund for late deliveries!"

Finally, the ghost added, "Does Your Holiness wish to purchase the 'Timely Guarantee'? If you do, you'll receive a full refund if you're six hours late!"

Qian Xunji: Where the hell did I come from? Is this still Douluo Continent?

"The Ghostly Bishop offers this service?"

With a fawning smile, his every gesture exuded the respect due to a god, as if he desperately hoped Qian Xunji would place an order with him.

"Your Holiness, being a deliveryman is the highest-ranking profession in the Douluo Continent! Without the cultivation of a Soul King, no one is qualified to deliver goods across cities!"

As he spoke, Ghostly took out a certificate with gold trim.

Qian Xunji looked closely.

The Courier Delivery Qualification Certificate (Contra) is issued by the Sect Alliance.

"Your Holiness, I am licensed to work, so you don't need to worry about me breaking the rules."

Qian Xunji asked curiously, "Without a license, does that mean I can't deliver packages?"

"As long as you pay your taxes on time, you can deliver packages even without a license, but... unless there's an accident, customers can't seek redress through official agencies."

Because the ghost's words were too normal, Qian Xunji couldn't keep up with the pace.

Customers can actually protect their rights?

Is this still Kunxu?

Do you support cash on delivery?

Ghostly shook his head: "Small business."

Wow, I haven't even met Bibi Dong yet, and my 800 gold soul coins have already evaporated?!

No way!

After a two-second silence, Qian Xunji came up with a very unconventional solution.

"You have Bibi Dong sign a low-interest loan of 1000 gold soul coins, and she will pay 800 gold soul coins."

The ghost was stunned, clearly not expecting the new pope to utter such a thing.

Tricking children into taking out loans?

Isn't this the behavior of an evil sect?

Faced with questioning glances, Qian Xunji calmly asked, "Is it compliant?"

Ghostly figure said helplessly, "It's compliant with regulations."

"As long as it complies with regulations!" Qian Xunji waved his hand, signaling the ghost to step back.

What kind of international joke is this? He is the Pope of the Spirit Hall, why should he spend money on his potential enemy?

Let Bibi Dong owe money first!

"Yes." Ghost closed his eyes, braced himself and accepted the task, his expression one of utter despair.

Having done such a thing, he has no face to face his colleagues or be a benevolent bishop!

After seeing off the ghost, Qian Xunji prepared to handle the affairs of the Spirit Hall and, incidentally, learn about the Douluo Continent with the Kunxu plugin implanted in it. Just as he opened a stack of documents, he suddenly remembered something.

"Check-in".

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the "Light Brain (Douluo Kunxu Special Edition)"!]

The next moment, Qian Xunji discovered that a virtual screen had appeared in his mental sea, displaying information about the various factions.

Open the God of Wealth Temple.

The introduction is very short.

[Each year, divine officials are dispatched to collect taxes from favored factions, and through the Spirit Hall, free subsidies are distributed to Soul Masters, Great Soul Masters, and Soul Venerables.]

There are only two business operations.

Issuing loans and transferring debt.

Since the God of Wealth Hall had too little content, Qian Xunji simply clicked on the "Hall of Spirits".

The Spirit Hall has a wide range of businesses, including chambers of commerce, auction houses, wild spirit beast hunting agencies, spirit beast home delivery, and gene seed trading...

Among all the services, Qian Xunji was surprised to find that the Spirit Hall also issued subsidies to Spirit Masters.

Unlike the free subsidies offered by the Temple of the God of Wealth, the Spirit Hall provides low-interest subsidies.

[Soul Master: Receive an interest-free loan of one gold soul coin per month. The interest-free loan must be repaid within ten years; any consequences of overdue payments will be borne by the user!]

[Grand Soul Master: Receive a low-interest loan of ten gold soul coins per month. After paying one bronze soul coin in interest the following month, the loan can be renewed. The low-interest loan must be repaid within ten years.]

[Soul Master: You will receive a low-interest loan of 100 gold soul coins per month. After paying one silver soul coin in interest the following month, you can continue to take out the loan. The low-interest loan must be repaid within ten years.]

"What's the difference between a low-interest loan with an annualized return of 1.2% and charity?"

The world was too beautiful, and Qian Xunji suspected that she had entered a fake Kunxu.

Then, he began to look at the low-interest subsidies offered by other sects...

Hmm, that's it!

Why should Soul Masters have interest-free loans? They should enjoy the same treatment as Great Soul Masters and Soul Venerables!

Haotian Sect: Tang family members' annualized return is 6%, other disciples' annualized return is 24%.

Such blatant double standards!

No wonder they're the evil Tang family!

Blue Electric Overlord Sect: 12% annualized return

No wonder this sect wastes resources meant for training Soul Douluos on pigs; they're blind!

And then look at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School... ugh, those heartless merchants are ruthless!

Soul Masters enjoy interest-free loans, but after reaching the Great Soul Master level...

1.2% annualized return in the first year

The annualized return in the second year was 2.4%.

The annualized return in the third year was 4.8%.

……

As long as a major breakthrough is not achieved, the annualized interest rate will not be reset.

The initial loan repayments are easy, but once a Soul Master cultivates to the Soul Grandmaster level, their loan burden will increase dramatically!

After all, most Soul Masters cannot cultivate from Soul Venerable to Soul Grandmaster within five years.

"This is the true Douluo Kunxu!"

To this inhuman force, Qian Xunji chuckled, "Hehehe, you don't want others to find out, do you?"

We must follow suit!

The Spirit Hall was too lenient.

They offer free martial soul awakening services to ordinary people and even allow them to join sects?!

Free upgrade appraisal, and get a low-interest loan from the Spirit Hall for free?!

Issuing work-study student status for free, subsidizing colleges, and training talent for hostile forces?!

"How can this be? They're not from our Spirit Hall, so why should they enjoy these privileges? Interest-free loans are my bottom line! No contract? Go sit at the same table as the crickets!"

Qian Xunji took out a piece of yellow paper and wrote down a series of reform measures to make the Spirit Hall rich!

Having laid a solid foundation, Qian Xunji began to review the Spirit Hall's financial details.

Only by increasing revenue and reducing expenditure can the Spirit Hall become wealthy and cultivate more geniuses!

"The Spirit Academy is actually using 5% of the Spirit Hall's revenue to train students!"

"Free use of the mimicry training grounds? Free spirit rings... This is practically charity!"

"If students don't take out loans, how will the Spirit Hall become wealthy? If the Spirit Hall isn't wealthy, how can it maintain its position as the strongest power!"

Qian Xunji's face darkened, and he pulled out a loan contract, starting to modify it in a similar manner.

"Assessment! We must conduct a rigorous assessment!"

"Only the top ten students in their grade deserve free time! Only they are eligible for interest-free loans! Only they have the right to purchase rare resources!"

"In a fantasy world—the strong ruthlessly humiliate the weak!"

"Let the Spirit Hall merge into Kunxu!"

"Hehehe~"
