We still need to set up the spirit gathering formation first! Chen Taizhong made up his mind.
However, it is not that difficult to build a spirit gathering array in the Netherworld. A small-scale spirit gathering array can use part of the spirit stones appropriately, but if it is used for cultivation on a large scale, no one can afford the consumption of the spirit stones.
Everyone comes to the Netherworld to make money, not to pretend to be wealthy.
There are also small-scale spirit-gathering formations that do not use spirit stones at all, but the requirements for the materials used to set up the formation are extremely high, as are the techniques for setting up the formation.
The most important thing is that this array arrangement method basically belongs to the laboratory production stage and has not yet reached the stage of large-scale production, so there is basically no need to consider it.
Chen Taizhong hesitated again and again, then he sighed, "Oh, forget it, let's send two hundred disciples first. Three hundred is too many, and it will easily affect the disciples' practice... As for who to send, let Mao Gongnan and Nan Wangliu
Make the decision."
When it comes to managing the internal affairs of the faction, both of them are better than him, so he is too lazy to do anything.
"It's true," the seventh shopkeeper nodded with deep sympathy, "It's really not easy to practice here. Not to mention the immortals, with the life span of the immortals, I don't want to stay here any longer... Do you need to rent a cave?"
"Rent a cave?" Chen Taizhong looked at him suspiciously.
"Jianbao Pavilion provides cave rental services," Shopkeeper Seven nodded with a smile, "You and hundreds of Spiritual Immortal disciples can practice there, but this price... is a bit expensive."
"Isn't it expensive?" Chen Taizhong snorted angrily, "Renting a cave... you can tell right away that it's not cheap."
"It's much cheaper than using the spiritual energy conversion array to practice," Shopkeeper Qi said without changing his expression. He didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. "It takes a long time. You can still get a discount."
"Tsk," Chen Taizhong snorted disapprovingly, "Then I might as well find some fox cultivators and Jiao cultivators to help me build a spirit gathering array and use the cave to practice... I'm really not that rich."
"Zhenren Chen, how much money have you made since you came to the Netherworld? Can you please don't aggrieve yourself too much?" Shopkeeper Seven called out, "You have realized the truth and are a person of status. Don't be so petty."
"I am here to lay a ten-thousand-year foundation for the Haoran Sect," Chen Taizhong was not impressed by him, "No matter how many spiritual stones you have, you must save money."
"Actually...it's actually not expensive to rent a cave," Shopkeeper Seven pondered for a moment, then continued to seduce him, "A hundred immortals plus you, a junior real person, won't cost much."
Chen Taizhong heard something was wrong, "You have a lot of caves in Jianbao Pavilion, are you anxious to rent them out?"
"How is that possible?" Shopkeeper Seven stared angrily. "In the Netherworld, the cave is simply not enough. I see that you are a long-term user, so I am willing to have a good talk with you... No one else can rent it even if they want to!"
Feeling that something was wrong, Chen Taizhong rolled his eyes and asked, "How much does a cave like this cost per day?"
"Ten Jilings a day is an exorbitant price." Shopkeeper Qi spread his hands, "If you have ever rented a cave in the government, you will know how reasonable the price is, and theirs is a fixed cave for promotion, we are here to carry it with us.
The cave!"
Chen Taizhong really knew about the fees in the official cave. He had been promoted in the official cave and the fees were quite expensive.
He has now forgotten how many extreme spirits were paid in one day at that time, but he is certain that it was definitely a painful price for him. After knowing that at that time, he had already obtained the secret vault of the Beast Taming Sect, and he had no money in his pocket.
Short on money.
Therefore, if he is a first-level real person, plus a hundred Spirit Immortal disciples, practicing in the cave, and only needs ten Ji Spirits a day, it is really cheap. After one year, it will only be more than 3,000 Ji Spirits, and ten years
More than 30,000 extremely spiritual beings.
You know, it would cost him 10,000 Jiling to send two hundred spiritual disciples to the Netherworld plane.
And the role these disciples can play is huge. Two hundred disciples, even if they work in four shifts, fifty disciples can guard at least fifteen mines.
Pay close attention to each mine and don't let anyone tamper with you. You can produce at least 1,800 more Jilings in a year. Fifteen mines will definitely exceed 10,000. Even if the tasks are not full, only ten mines are worth it.
Guard, that is also about ten thousand pieces of Jiling.
And all he had to pay was the rental cost of more than 3,000 Jiling, which was a very good deal.
Otherwise, everything would be difficult to withstand consideration. Once he thought about it, he discovered that it was really feasible.
However, he was still a little puzzled, "Sui Cave, are you willing to rent it to me at such a low price?"
"How about I have sincerity in doing business?" Shopkeeper Qi slapped his chest hard, and then chuckled, "Actually, the Dongfu thing uses less spiritual energy, just bring it back to the Feng Huangjie to replenish it, no need to spend any money.
We still made a profit from the spiritual stone."
Let me tell you, Chen Taizhong nodded thoughtfully, how could Jianbao Pavilion do a loss-making business? "How will we practice when you take the cave home back?"
"I'll just rent you another cave to practice in," Shopkeeper Seven answered simply.
"Are you so kind?" Chen Taizhong looked at him suspiciously, thinking that there must be some reasons that I don't know about.
"Why do I have the guts to plot against you?" Shopkeeper No. 7 replied with a wry smile, "Anyway, you don't have to worry about paying for the spirit stones. You can just get the share of the resources. I'm not afraid of you defaulting, either."
In fact, this condition was not made by him, but by Bai Fengming. The seventh shopkeeper did not know the intention behind the condition, but Master Bai wanted him to secretly worry about Chen Taizhong's cultivation before entering the country. This was probably the purpose.
Of course Shopkeeper Seven knows that Fairy Yan Wu and Chen Taizhong are not very good at dealing with each other. Strictly speaking, it's because she doesn't like him. Chen is just a junior real person and is not qualified to deal with real immortals.
Then, it is normal for Master Bai to rent out a cave at a price that is almost free to find out Chen Taizhong's cultivation speed. It is not too much to pay more attention to the potential enemies of the royal family.
Even the seventh shopkeeper guessed that this matter should be decided by Bai Fengming himself. The top master of the royal family did not receive the instruction from Fairy Yan Wu, so he was not that idle.
However, no matter how many speculations he had in his mind, he could only pretend not to know when facing Chen Taizhong.
Chen Taizhong did not expect that he would be so concerned about by the royal family. He felt that the conditions of Jianbao Pavilion were really too good, so good that it was a bit wrong, but if he thought about it carefully, he would not lose anything.
So he nodded slightly and said, "Thank you to the Seventh Shopkeeper. If you like the minerals in our Haoran Sect's territory, just open your mouth and we can talk about anything."
Being able to talk about anything is still Chen Taizhong's style. In fact, he originally wanted to bring all the supplies back to the Haoran Sect, but since the other party gave him this face, he would not take advantage of it in vain.
Mr. Chen has always believed that he should not be greedy for cheap, otherwise if the Jianbao Pavilion makes any unreasonable requests in the future, he will not be able to refuse, and he will eat someone else's mouth and take someone else's hands short.
It's better to give it a little cheaper now. If he needs to fall out, he will have no pressure.
The seventh shopkeeper is an old man in business, so how could he not think of his fear? However, he just didn't know about these things, and he actually admired this person a little more in his heart.
He smiled and nodded, "Purchasing is no problem, but to be honest... Haha, the goods must be good. You also know the vision of my Treasure Appraisal Pavilion."
"That's up to you," Chen Taizhong waved his hand and put the matter behind him, "When will the disciples of my Haoran sect be released?"
"I can't guarantee this," Shopkeeper Seven shook his head. "The fastest it will take is ten days. If it's slower, it's normal for one or two months... It's up to you whether the Haoran faction is willing to cooperate or not."
"It's still... after all," Chen Taizhong sighed. He still wanted to find trouble with the Qinggang Sect. Thinking that someone might come from the faction at any time, he had no choice but to suppress his intention and stay around for two months.
In the following days, he stayed at the station peacefully, occasionally going to the Northern Territory, showing a small face, and then continued to disappear.
The effect of him being so elusive is very obvious. No one knows where he is hiding. He is at peace in the market, and there are no surprises in the Northern Territory.
The days went on monotonously like this. After staying for about ten days, Madman Ma left alone.
Chen Taizhong asked him to take away the mineral powder filled with snow mercury, which can be regarded as some local specialties. Ma Zhenzhen grinned for a while before hesitantly refused, "This thing takes up too much space, please give me some mithril ore."
Mithril is much more expensive, but it is given. This is similar to eating peaches for free in the orchard. It is the origin of Mithril mine. Giving away some Mithril is nothing, as long as it is not divided proportionally, it really doesn't matter.
Let's put it this way, even now a lot of mithril can be extracted from a lot of mithril slag, but the cost is a bit high and not economical, so the slag is just thrown there.
People outside can pick up some slag, but if they want to take it all away, that is absolutely impossible. When there is no more ore to mine, these can still be used as waste.
After Ma Zhenren left, Chen Taizhong received another invitation from the tiger demon and went to rob the mines of two left prime ministers.
The tiger clan and Chen Taizhong have agreed on a cooperation method: to collect protection fees in the name of Hu Xiu. Once the two sides start fighting, the tiger demon will call Chen Taizhong as foreign aid.
This kind of behavior makes the people of the left prime minister very unhappy. If Chen Taizhong directly comes forward, the Northern Territory officials will have something to do. But the Orcs come to collect protection fees, and the Human Tribe officials have nothing to do. We have agreed to jointly develop the Netherworld.
However, Huxiu did not grab the mines from the beginning. They only collected protection fees and would cause all sorts of troubles if they did not pay. This made the left-leaning prime minister care about things and not care about them.
Some mine owners couldn't stand their anger and wanted to fight hard, so the tiger demon took the opportunity to seize the mines. If he wanted to confirm his right to collect protection fees through a gambling battle, Chen Taizhong would not give it to him in vain.
In short, this kind of thing makes the heads of the left prime minister big. They want to turn against Hu Xiu and start a war, but they really don’t dare, because Tiger Xiu has already said that there is no blood food in the Netherworld. My children
They are not very good at making weapons, so everyone must work closely together to exhaust the war potential of the Netherworld.
What's even more terrible is that Tiger Lord's words have gained the support of other orcs. The orcs suffered a lot of casualties in the plane war. Facing a plane with little blood food, if they want to get enough trophies, they can only fight with the human race.
"Cooperated".
