Chapter 76: Changes in Fang Market
After half a month of rest and preparation, Wang Cheng and Xu Jinfeng embarked on a journey to Baixiang Mountain.
However, this time, in addition to the two of them, Wang Cheng's [Xunfeng Eagle] Xiaoqing and the black eagle bird tamed by Xu Jinfeng were also taken by them to help explore the way forward.
Perhaps it was because of the good care and raising it. Although this [Xunfeng Diao] is less than two years old now, it is almost too big to carry Wang Cheng to fly, and its cultivation is almost entering the ranks of first-level mid-grade monsters.
Compared with this, Xu Jinfeng's [Black Cloud Vulture] is far behind. Now it is not even a monster, and it is about the same size as an ordinary vulture.
[Xunfeng Diao] You can fly to a height of seven or eight thousand feet. The cruise speed is at least one-third faster than Wang Cheng and his motor vehicle. With it helping to observe and warn in the sky, Wang Cheng and the others can basically worry about threats from the sky, and even some powerful large monsters on the ground can avoid detours in advance.
Xu Jinfeng's [Black Cloud Eagle] was cruising in the rear, so as not to notice that when flying monsters and Wang Cheng and others suddenly appeared in the rear, they were unable to notice.
With the escort of the two demon birds in front and behind, and having already taken this road before, Wang Cheng and his friends' trip to Baixiang Mountain was much smoother than when they came back the previous time.
After more than two months of walking along the way, they arrived at Huoyuanling Market almost without any danger.
Before arriving at Huoyuanling Fangcheng, it was eye-catching. Wang Cheng and his friends placed both demon birds in a valley two thousand miles away from the Fangcheng, and asked them to wait for their masters to return there.
Xiaoqing, who is nearly two years old, has a high intelligence and strong obedience. She can execute some simple commands from Wang Cheng very well. Wang Cheng asked it to look at the [Black Cloud Vulture] and wait for it to come back, and it will never run around.
"This market seems to be much more lively than when I came here last time. It seems that in the past year, many monks from outside have come to this wild area!"
In the Huoyuanling Market, Wang Cheng looked at the pedestrians passing through the market, his face full of surprise.
He clearly remembered that last time he came here, except for those who opened shops and did business in this market, he could almost be said to be deserted and extremely deserted.
Now looking at the traffic of people walking in this market, although it is still far inferior to "Baixiangfang", it is several times more than when he came last time.
"It's true that there are a lot more people. When you stay in a hotel later, you might as well ask someone to ask. You should know what causes so many people in the market."
Xu Jinfeng nodded slightly, agreed with Wang Cheng's statement, and put forward his own suggestions.
So the two went to the place where the "ship tickets" were sold for the Feitian Tower Boat, and spent 260 low-grade spirit stones to purchase two "ship tickets". The Feitian Tower Boat, which is one ten days, will take three days to set off for "Baixiangfang".
After buying the boat ticket, Wang Cheng and his friends went to the Xianzhan I had stayed last time and opened two ordinary rooms for temporary residence. Then Wang Cheng asked about the huge increase in the flow of people in the market.
The situation was a bit beyond his expectations.
It turned out that the traffic volume in the market increased significantly, not only because of the influx of outside monks, but also because other nearby sects began to send people to the market one after another.
Like Qingyun Sect, when they first came to this wild area, all the sects that did not have Jindan stage monks in charge, all started to develop and build mountain gates and search for wildlife resources around the sect.
Now three or four years have passed, the mountain gates of various sects have been almost fully built, and a lot of nearby resources have been searched, so there is a need for foreign exchanges and trade.
Therefore, the only five remaining markets in this wild area naturally became the nearby choice for monks from various sects.
It is said that there are as many as twenty-seven sects that have purchased stores in Huoyuanling Square alone!
After learning about this situation, Wang Cheng couldn't help but sigh when he returned to the room: "It's a pity, but our Qingyun Sect is still too tight now. Otherwise, buying a store as a sect industry is the best time. When the market becomes more and more prosperous in the future, it will be difficult to buy a store again, and the price will not be as cheap as it is now!"
He knew very well how strong the appreciation of real estate is.
As one of the only five markets in this wild area, the store in Huoyuanling Market is definitely worth buying.
If you buy it now, even if you don’t do business and resell it in the future, you will definitely make a big profit!
But knowing that it is one thing, but doing it is another.
Even now, the shops in Huoyuan Ridge are relatively cheap. A shop requires at least 20,000 low-grade spirit stones to buy, and the location is not very good.
There are many people in the cultivation world who know how to do business. Many people know the potential of shops in the market, but even if they know, what if they do?
A good woman can’t cook without rice. If she has no money, she can’t catch any investment opportunity. She can only watch others make money in vain!
"The head of the sect should not be anxious. With the foundation of Qingyun Sect, when the three hundred spiritual mulberry trees are put into production and the output of the [Steel and Silver] mineral veins increase, let alone the store in Huoyuanlingfang City, it is not impossible to buy a store in Baixiangfang!"
Xu Jinfeng comforted Wang Cheng softly, afraid that he would get hot for a moment, so he used the spirit stones that he planned to buy the foundation-building spirit pill this time to buy a store.
Wang Cheng was actually just expressing his feelings. Of course, he could clearly understand which one is more important.
At this time, when he heard Xu Jinfeng's words, he nodded with a hint of point and said, "Elder Xu makes sense. After our Qingyun Sect cultivates his foundation-building cultivator and can suppress the mountain gate, he can hire Lingnongs and miners from the [Yunlong Chamber of Commerce]. As long as there are enough Lingnongs to cultivate all the abandoned spiritual peaks near the mountain gate into spiritual fields, even if we only plant [Jade Tooth Crop], we can earn tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones a year!"
Hiring Lingnong to cultivate farming and mining miners to mine are all Wang Cheng’s next development plan.
Qingyun Sect actually has a lot of resources now, but it is seriously lacking in manpower to monetize it.
For example, now they have not even collected much of the wild elixir resources in the 300-mile area around the mountain gate, let alone developed the spiritual peaks containing spiritual veins into sect assets.
However, in order to hire Lingjiang to farm on a large scale, in addition to being able to afford the employment fee, Qingyun Sect itself must have enough strength to intimidate these Lingjiangs and protect them.
For example, now, there is not even a foundation-building monk in Qingyun Sect. If many Lingjiangs were hired to farm, those Lingjiangs could see that Qingyun Sect had such strength and might secretly unite to do things that would satisfy their own pockets. The Qingyun Sect's staff may not be able to do anything to others by then!
If you think about the disadvantages, after other sects know the situation of Qingyun Sect, as long as the spiritual plants planted by Qingyun Sect mature, they will send out a group of foundation-building cultivators to lead the team to harvest those spiritual plants. What should Wang Cheng and others in the Qi training stage stop them?
After all, the cultivation world is based on strength. Even if Longshan Academy is pressed on it, others will not directly destroy Qingyun Sect. However, Longshan Academy is definitely too lazy to care about such "small things".
It was because Wang Cheng knew this clearly in his heart that he would always regard cultivating a foundation-building monk as the top priority of Qingyun Sect.
At this time, after he had a conversation with Xu Jinfeng, he went out to wander the Huoyuanling Market together.
Although I can’t afford to buy a store now, Wang Cheng can investigate the situation in the market in advance, understand the characteristics of each store in the market, and see if there is any possibility of cooperation in the future.
After all, the round-trip tickets to "Baixiangfang" are not cheap. As long as the purchase price of various items in the shops here is not bad, it will definitely be easier to sell them nearby.
After two or three days of investigation, Wang Cheng had a rough understanding of the situation in Huoyuanling Fangcheng. He even found out the names of the twenty-seven sects that settled in the market here, as well as the approximate strength level of some sects, and gained a lot.
Qingyun Sect is not convenient for foreign exchanges now, but it will definitely have to communicate with other sects in the future. Wang Cheng is well aware of the harm of "closing the country to the end", so he will not keep it behind closed doors like this.
