Since many years ago, Zhang Zhixuan has sent a large number of sect monks to explore the mines.
The Zhang family of Tiantai Peak is the force closest to him, so they will naturally make great efforts to support his decision-making and execute it without compromise from top to bottom.
After more than twenty years and spending countless manpower and material resources, the Zhang family monks finally got lucky and discovered a spirit stone vein.
The location of this Lingshi mine is still in the wilderness, more than 20,000 miles away from Lushan County, twice as far as the Chaoyin Mountain Lingshi mine.
The Lingshi mine is located in Lushan County, which is not too far from the vast sea. Taking the waterway can save a lot of costs.
The barren mountain where the Lingshi Mine is located originally had no name, but was named Jinxia Ridge by the Zhang family monks because of the Jinxia rays shining in the morning.
After receiving the news, Zhang Zerui, who was in charge of the family, did not take advantage of it like Ma Jimin did in the past, and rashly mined mineral veins and stole spiritual stones.
Instead, he hurried to Qingxuanzong and reported the matter to Qingchan for decision.
Zhang Zhixuan had just come out of quarantine. After receiving the news, he immediately went to Jinxia Ridge with Qingchan and Zhang Zerui.
There are more than ten Zhang family monks near Jinxia Ridge, and the leader is Zhang Xianteng, who built the third floor of the foundation.
This man is a prospector trained by the Zhang family. He has an ugly appearance, dark skin, and a pair of striking ears. He is gifted with excellent hearing.
It was his meticulous and thoughtful exploration of the terrain that led to the discovery of the anomaly in Jinxia Ridge. With his persistence, the monks of the Zhang family spent more than two years digging in this barren mountain before mining the spiritual stone.
It can be said that this person made the first contribution to the discovery of this spiritual stone mine.
Zhang Zhixuan did not think of his ugly appearance, and patted his shoulder happily and said: "You have made the first contribution to the discovery of the spirit stone mine this time. When you return, Zerui will reward you heavily."
Under the leadership of Zhang Xianteng, everyone entered the dark and damp mine.
The mine is winding and winding, with special torches lit every few dozen steps.
This kind of torch uses low-grade xuanyang wood and can burn for several days and nights.
After the Zhang family took control of Liucheng's spiritual veins, they increased their efforts in planting Xuanyang trees. Tens of thousands of Xuanyang trees are produced every year.
This kind of low-level spiritual wood has flowed into the mortal world in large quantities. Officials, nobles, and innate monks in the mortal world even use Xuanyang wood for heating and lighting.
As the mine gets deeper and deeper, traces of spiritual energy seep out from the mine.
Zhang Zhixuan used his spiritual consciousness to scan and found that there were occasionally one or two low-grade spiritual stones hidden dozens of feet deep in the rock wall. Judging from the density of the distribution of spiritual stones in this vein, it was not as good as the Chaoyin Mountain mine.
Although Qingchan's formation water quality has not returned to the level of his previous life, it has also reached the fifth level of high quality.
She walked around the mine, then took out a formation flag and shot it into Jinxia Ridge. She explored the scope of the Lingshi mine and determined the trend of the ground veins. As the exploration came to an end, her face became more and more revealing.
Lots of smiles.
"How about it? Is the mineral vein very large?"
Qingchan nodded and said: "Brother Zhixuan guessed it right. Although the distribution of spirit stones is thinner than that of Chaoyin Mountain, the range is much larger than that of Chaoyin Mountain's spirit stone mine. According to my estimation, according to the mining intensity of Chaoyin Mountain,
It can be mined for at least two thousand years. Because the veins are very large, a multi-head tunneling method can be adopted. Looking at the nearby terrain, there are enough mines for 200,000 people. Once on track, the number of spiritual stones mined in a year can reach about 50,000.
However, there are a lot of preparations in advance, especially safety issues, so you need to be extremely careful. Jinxia Ridge is already on the edge of the Southern Wilderness. If you cultivate fourth-order spiritual veins, you will not be able to stop the Demon King from snooping. Cultivate fifth-order spiritual veins.
Arranging for Jindan monks to be in charge, it is impossible to rely solely on the Qingxuan Sect family."
Mining the Lingshi mine requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Even if the Qingxuan Sect is now greatly strengthened, it will still be difficult to mobilize 200,000 people from the mountain gate to Jinxia Ridge.
Besides, the Zhang family spent a lot of manpower and material resources on prospecting, so it was not appropriate to leave them alone.
Zhang Zhixuan thought for a moment and said: "If we don't deal with the Qingtong Demon King, it's impossible to arrange the fourth-level spiritual veins. Once the Demon King attacks, it's impossible to rely on the Zifu monks to guard the mountain gate. I think we should let Tianchan Cave and Huanshui Sect participate.
Come in, cultivate the fifth-level spiritual veins, set up the teleportation array, and then occupy part of the shares."
In the past sixty years, Zhang Zhixuan has been quietly integrating the forces of the three sects.
Qinglihai's Kongming Stone vein is extremely profitable, and it is equally divided among the three sects.
The proceeds from killing low-level ghost cultivators in Evil Ghost Cave will also be shared with Tianchan Cave.
Although Jinxia Ridge is the territory of Qingxuan Sect, without the support of Tianchan Cave and Huanshui Sect, it still cannot stop the Demon King and Yang Xuanzhen.
Qingchan pondered for a moment and said, "That's fine. I'll go find Guyan and ask her to come up with some spiritual stones. You can go to Huanshui Sect to find Yunfeng. Tiantai Peak will occupy the remaining 10% of the shares."
Cultivating the fifth-level spiritual veins requires an investment of one million spirit stones. Setting up the teleportation array to communicate with Qingyang Mountain and Lingjing Mountain also requires an investment of more than 200,000. In addition, building the gate of the main hall and setting up a defensive formation require a total investment of one million.
More than 1.4 million spiritual stones will be invested in cultivating spiritual fields and planting spiritual medicines in the future.
Even if they hold one-tenth of the shares, the Zhang family still needs to spend 150,000 spirit stones at once.
This number is quite a headache for Tiantai Peak.
In the past few years, the Zhang family had saved tens of thousands of spiritual stones, but unfortunately, all their savings were used up in exchange for foundation-building pills.
In recent years, only thirty thousand spiritual stones have been saved in the family treasury.
If you want to invest in a stake, I'm afraid you still need to mobilize the strength of the tribe and share the money.
Zhang Zerui has just taken charge of the family and is going to make a big distribution. This may seriously damage his prestige.
Seeing Zhang Zerui's depressed look, Zhang Zhixuan laughed heartily and said: "You don't have to be too anxious. There are no spiritual stones at home. Can't you borrow some from the Wu family and the Liu family? Although Tiantai Peak has become prosperous, it still has nothing to do with the old neighbors in this hometown.
You should still move around more. Now that we are in the prime of life, as long as you give a good interest rate, the Wu family and the Liu family will still help you. Borrowing 20,000 to 30,000 spiritual stones as a family will make your burden a little easier.
In addition, people like Xianlong, Ziqing, Ruizhen, and Ruibao also have spiritual stones in their hands. As long as you can afford it, each of them will lend you three thousand and five thousand, and they can bear part of it, plus Sihong and Lan Niang.
You also have to do your best, we three golden elixir monks can also support you with 30,000 yuan, and the foundation-building monks at home can raise the capital to invest."
After giving some advice to Zhang Zerui, Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan separated into two groups. Zhang Zhixuan went to Huanshui Sect, while Qing Chan went to look for Liu Lingjun.
Although Liu Lingjun consumed nearly ten thousand spirit stones in her hand, she was a Nascent Soul monk, and a skinny camel was bigger than a horse. She easily took out more than 400,000 spirit stones without any embarrassment on her face.
Affection.
The Huanshui Sect has invested a large amount of spiritual stones to cultivate the Evil Ghost Cave spiritual veins for more than 20 years, and the treasury has been exhausted many years ago.
In the past twenty years, the sect's treasury has only accumulated more than a hundred thousand scattered spirit stones. In order to invest in the spirit stone mine, Chen Yunfeng gritted his teeth and raised funds, selling some precious cultivation resources to vassal families, and finally collected more than 400,000.
