According to the Immortal Alliance's spiritual rice storage situation, their original amount of spiritual rice is enough to support this year's spiritual rice harvest. However, this premise requires that the Immortal Alliance uniformly distributes the spiritual rice according to the principle of even distribution.
But resources are just unbalanced. Suppose one hundred kilograms of rice is enough to feed one hundred people, but in reality some people must be hungry, because human nature is like this. There will definitely be people who rely on their own force, wealth, strong relationships, etc.
To occupy more shares, resulting in inability to distribute equally.
People like Lin Xiao deliberately created panic and aggravated this unbalanced relationship, causing a large number of casual cultivators to panic buying and constantly driving up prices. Even Ye Xiao and the shops that could be affected by them even deliberately hoarded.
Making huge war fortunes has infinitely aggravated this situation.
The Immortal Alliance is not a centralized force, but a loose alliance. The orders of the Immortal Alliance must be compromised among the seven sects of the Immortal Alliance, let alone those merchants.
The Immortal Alliance does not dare to stop the sale of spiritual rice. Once they do this, the casual cultivators will run away and flood into the Five Continents Alliance's areas of influence where the price of spiritual rice is cheaper. Without the casual cultivators, who will help them farm and who will help them
When it comes to work, who will be responsible for the business, real estate, etc. in each cultivating city. If there is no tax revenue, the small output of each Lingshan will not be able to support the huge war expenditures.
Therefore, the Immortal Alliance could only continuously mobilize the inventory of spiritual rice and distribute it to the market. At this time, Ye Xiao used spies ambush in each sect to spread rumors that the inventory of the Immortal Alliance was empty, and even the disciples of each sect could not reach it.
Satisfied, the Immortal Alliance monks suddenly panicked and exchanged their war exploits and merit points for spiritual rice, causing a new wave of runs and accelerating the depletion of inventory.
"How much inventory do you have?"
At the Suyu Sect's mountain gate, Tang Shuwen urgently summoned senior officials from various companies for discussion. Now the entire Immortal Alliance was in emergency, and there was a rush for spiritual rice everywhere. Letters asking for help were sent to him one after another.
"Tianxuan Sect's main sect probably still has two billion jin, and the forces under its command haven't been calculated yet, but there are still three to four billion."
"You still have so many, but our Ziyun Temple only has 500 million."
"The Star Observation Gate still has a billion at most, and it sells hundreds of millions of catties a day, and it can't last for five days."
The top management of the seven sects reported their own inventories one after another. Tang Shuwen knew that they had probably underreported some, but the total amount was only five to six billion catties.
Is this a large number? Not much at all. The Immortal League has about 20 million troops on the front line or garrisoned in the city. Calculated at two pounds per person per day, it is only enough for three months, not to mention that they still need to continue
For sale to casual practitioners.
"Tang Patriarch, in addition to the Five Continents Alliance causing trouble this time around, we also have problems ourselves. Many of us are speculating on rice."
"Fried rice? What do you mean?"
"Heishuitai captured a profiteer. They had long expected that the Five Continents Alliance would attack Lingmi. Therefore, they used to take advantage of the Lingmi harvest and eat a large amount of Lingmi when the price dropped. Recently, they helped create panic and caused Lingmi
The price skyrocketed, and they were sold to casual cultivators.
Not only that, in order to stabilize the price, we sell spiritual rice at a price lower than the market price, and they also eat it secretly, and then sell it to casual cultivators, making a lot of money.
I believe that this kind of thing happens not only in our Tianxuan Sect, but also in every sect. Such profiteers must be severely punished."
"This kind of profiteer deserves death. Are you going to kill him?"
"No"
"What"
"Why not kill"
"Yes, why not kill"
"Because the person behind this business is a grandson of Patriarch Chen, we can only kill the shopkeeper to take the blame."
The Tianxuanzong monk smiled bitterly and said, "Do those who dare to make war fortune have no background at all? That is impossible. Tianxuanzong searched along the business names and found a grandson of Chen Qixing. How can we investigate this? We haven't started yet."
, people from the Chen family have already come to Heishui Terrace to plead for mercy. Heishui Terrace cannot afford to offend the Chen family.
"The road is ruthless, Old Ancestor Chen has gone too far this time."
"Tang Patriarch, as far as I know, the situation of every family is the same this time. Do you still remember the Bliss Villa founded by Lin Xiao before?"
"Remember, what happened?"
"Bliss Villa is sponsored by Tang Yulin, the grandson of the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty. There are also a group of dandies. Tianxuan Sect has also imitated them one after another. The identity of the founder is similar. These dandies do not understand the overall situation and are secretly instigated by Lin Xiao's people. It is estimated that this time they will all
I’m going to make a fortune.”
"What, there is such a thing, there are spies around them, why is it not bad?"
"There's no way to check because they don't know who the spies are. They just provide this idea to each family. How to use their identities and relationships is all their own."
"Despicable"
"Is Lin Xiao's city already so deep? It was laid out hundreds of years ago?"
Everyone felt terrified. Is Lin Xiao really so terrifying? He had planned it hundreds of years ago. This kind of ability must be too terrifying.
"You don't want Shinhwa Lin Xiao. I guess he is just doing it casually and is not that powerful. The key for us now is to come up with countermeasures. If we don't solve this problem, all our stocks will be used up in half a month at most."
When the time comes, the casual cultivators will all run away. Without the casual cultivators, we will have to rely on people from our various sects. We have to fight, garrison Lingshan, garrison in the city, and farm. We simply don’t have enough manpower."
"I understand. This matter must be solved internally and externally. We must search for spies internally and kill Ye Xiao's people. At the same time, we must order our shops to prohibit hoarding, release inventory, and stabilize prices. Externally, we need assistance.
The spiritual rice from Zhouzhou must be delivered as soon as possible.”
"It's no problem internally, as long as our senior management is not stupid and can control it for the sake of the overall situation, but over at Dongzhou, what they negotiated before was the market price, and now the market price is too high."
"Yes, before the war, spiritual rice was not valuable. A piece of low-grade mysterious crystal could buy fifty kilograms of first-level spiritual rice. After the war broke out, it could also buy about forty kilograms. But now, a piece of low-grade mysterious crystal can only buy ten kilograms.
, and it’s still rising.”
"A piece of low-grade Xuan Jing over at Jade Immortal Sect can only be purchased for eight kilograms."
"It's increased so much?"
Tang Shuwen was a little dizzy. This was so many times over. If Xianmeng bought rice from Dongzhou at this price and then stabilized the price, all the price difference would be the loss of Xianmeng. It is estimated that the loss would be no less than billions. Xianmeng would have to pay out
There was a lot of blood.
"What's the price at the Five Continents Alliance?"
"It's lower than us, a black crystal weighs about twelve or three pounds."
"They're driving up prices themselves?"
"Yes, why? Their supply of spiritual rice is enough?"
"This is going to force us to death. If their prices are too low, we can use smuggling to purchase from them. So they lower the prices, which can not only harvest the wealth of casual cultivators, but also maintain their suppression of us.
The rest of the cost of smuggling is very high, and this price is completely unaffordable.”
"This must be Lin Xiao's handiwork. This person is very good at engaging in such crooked ways."
"The boy who is good at making money really deserves his reputation."
"Stop raising other people's ambitions, Patriarch Tang, give me the order."
"Okay, I have given an order. From today on, every sect and every family must crack down on hoarding. No matter who it is, if you can't do it, come to me. I will personally discuss it with the ancestors of each family. If you don't kill a group of people, you can't stop it.
This evil trend, in addition, sent someone to discuss with the Five Elements Company about buying rice. The price was whatever he said. A pound of spiritual rice and a black crystal are no problem. Don’t they want high-level spiritual items? We will also increase the price, Lingming Dan.
It will directly increase to 50 million, do you want to love me?”
Tang Shuwen said coldly, he can also be a profiteer. If Dongzhou wants to take advantage, there is no way. Whatever you earn from Lingmi, they will earn back from high-level spiritual objects, and they will earn double.
"The ancestors of the Tang Dynasty were wise and would never let the fishermen of Dongzhou benefit."
"In addition, we still need to counterattack. How the Five Continents Alliance dealt with us, we will deal with them. Didn't we fight a public opinion war before? We have to start too. They clearly have enough supply of spiritual rice, but they are still raising money.
The price is just exploiting casual cultivators, expose this matter."
Tang Shuwen replied that they lacked experience in economic warfare, public opinion warfare, etc. However, Tang Shuwen never panicked and just learned on the spot. They would learn how Lin Xiao did it and just return it. With this
With one move, they defused a large number of offensives from the Five Continents Alliance, and it is the same now.
After the meeting, Tang Shuwen returned to the Tang family in person and took the senior executives of the Tang family to inspect several warehouses of the Tang family, especially the warehouse of the business established by Tang Yulin.
"There is so little spiritual rice, why don't you hoard some?"
"Grandpa, I'm not stupid. You can't see through Mr. Lin's vicious methods. I've been brothers with him for hundreds of years. How can you not see through it? If I take action now, wouldn't I undermine you?"
Tang Yulin curled his lips. He had tricked out many of the principles of Lin Xiao's methods and told Tang Shuwen. Tang Yulin knew that trying to make a fortune at this time would be courting death.
"Very good, then tell me who is still hoarding it?"
"Our family"
"What"
"It's from the third ancestor's family, the eighth ancestor's family, the seventh uncle's family, and the nineteenth uncle's family. Grandpa will know it after checking it. In addition, there are also those from the Zhou family, the Le family, and the Xu family. Grandpa, you have to act fast, otherwise
They will run away after receiving the news.”
Tang Yulin shook his head and said, many people in the Tang family are envious of the price of spiritual rice. In just ten days, they can earn back several times their investment. Not everyone can keep their heart in the face of such benefits. Several people in the Tang family are jealous.
Important forces also participated.
"Why didn't you tell me"
Tang Shuwen's forehead was throbbing with veins. The people Tang Yulin mentioned were all high-level monks of the Tang family, and they were also the support of the Tang family. He now knew the helplessness of the Tianxuan Sect man. With so many high-level officials involved, who could be truly selfless?
, kill them, the Tang family will collapse.
"Standing back someone's money is like killing your parents. How dare I? Here, this is a pamphlet sent by Lin Xiao. Grandpa, take a look."
Tang Yulin slowly took out a booklet from his storage bag. The cover had the word "get rich" on it. After opening it, it was full of hoarding knowledge on how to make money by taking advantage of information gaps and status advantages. It can be said that
In the current situation, with this pamphlet, as long as you have the background, even a pig can make a lot of money.
