Chapter eight hundred and seventh Dongzhou blood loss
Tang Shuwen looked at the contents of the pamphlet, and the fear of Lin Xiao reappeared in his heart. This pamphlet was like an opened Pandora's box, a devil's fruit that tempted people to commit crimes.
Among the seven sects of the Immortal Alliance plus a large number of second-rate sects, who doesn’t have a lot of dandies, big and small? No matter how mischievous these people usually are, they can’t affect the overall situation, but now, they have become a knife inserted into the chest of the Immortal Alliance.
knife.
Tang Shuwen could imagine how surprised those dandies would be after getting this booklet. Based on the price changes of spiritual rice in the past ten days, it is possible to get back the value of three to four million Xuan Crystals for the cost of one million Xuan Crystals.
The profits are several times astonishing.
These dudes are completely unaware of the overall situation. In their view, this is a great opportunity to make a fortune. They have connections, connections, information, and capital. It is easy for them to hoard. Even their teachers and elders will personally
It is extremely difficult to get involved and prevent this situation.
No matter how difficult it was, Tang Shuwen was not willing to admit defeat. Tang Shuwen summoned the middle and senior management of the Tang family and personally ordered his nephews to confiscate the spiritual rice they had hoarded and spit out the money they had earned. However, even Tang Shuwen did not dare to do so.
There can be no substantive punishment for operating on one's own family members, and one can only seek to operate on some less important people.
After dealing with the Tang family, Tang Shuwen immediately found Yu Pingcheng and discussed the matter with Yu Pingcheng. Yu Pingcheng was also furious. The Immortal Alliance has reached this point, and everyone is so greedy, without caring about the overall situation. They immediately
Tang Shuwen was authorized to investigate the Su Yu Sect, and Yu Pingcheng also communicated with the Supremes of several other sects. Each sect must be rectified, otherwise the Immortal Alliance will collapse.
For the major supreme beings, what they did was to harm them. Naturally, they would not agree easily. They all convened a high-level meeting to investigate the matter.
The hoarding shops were eliminated one by one, and the situation in the Immortal Alliance was temporarily stabilized. However, for the casual cultivators, the panic created was not so easy to calm down.
Tang Shuwen met Yi Zhibai from Wuxing Company again and discussed with him the transaction of spiritual rice. Dongzhou had already made a decision on this matter. Yi Zhibai still traded at the current market price. Tang Shuwen did not bargain, but raised the price.
The price of high-end resources, especially strategic resources, was so high that Tang Shuwen dared to offer fifty million Xuan Crystals for a Lingming Pill that only cost three to four million Xuan Crystals, which was four to five times higher than usual.
When Yi Zhibai heard this price, his face turned pale. If the transaction was like this, Dongzhou would not only not make a profit, but would also have to pay a premium.
But Tang Shuwen was very stubborn. If it wasn't for this price, the Xianmeng would suffer. The shopping mall was like a battlefield. Tang Shuwen was not willing to give in. He directly told Yi Zhibai that if it wasn't for this price, then the Xianmeng would rather risk going to Wuzhou.
Smuggling with the Alliance, even if the risk is doubled, is still worthwhile.
After all, the two parties were in a cooperative relationship. Yi Zhi spent several days in vain before finally deciding on the price. The price of Lingmi was calculated at 40% off the current market price, and strategic resources such as Lingming Pill would not cost more than 5,000 yuan.
Wanxuanjing is so expensive, probably around 20,000,000 yuan. Dongzhou and Tang Shuwen have made a trade agreement for 20 billion kilograms of spiritual rice, which is worth about one billion Xuanjing. In addition, there are some low-level alchemy arrays and elixirs.
The trade in spiritual herbs.
The news of Yi Zhibai reached Dongzhou, and the five major colleges immediately began to dispatch spiritual rice to be shipped to Central Continent. The 20 billion kilograms of spiritual rice, if used in sixth-level storage bags, would take several hundred. Dongzhou could not get it at all.
With so many storage bags, the only way to transport cargo across the East China Sea is by flying treasure ships.
After Penglai learned of this news, Penglai immediately dispatched 50,000 troops to intercept in the East China Sea. Penglai has been operating the East China Sea for hundreds of thousands of years, and its familiarity with the sea area and the quantity and quality of treasure ships far exceed the level of Dongzhou.
Five days later, Penglai's fleet and Dongzhou monk's fleet met in the East China Sea. A large-scale naval battle broke out between the two sides. Dongzhou's eighty treasure ships and one hundred airships were sunk, and more than thirty treasure ships were sunk.
More than twenty flying boats also crashed, and only a small half of the remaining ones escaped to Central Continent, while the rest returned to East Continent.
In this battle, Dongzhou suffered heavy losses. One-third of the five billion kilograms of spiritual rice they carried were lost. Less than one billion kilograms were actually sent to Central Continent. Moreover, the losses in personnel, treasure ships, and flying boats reached several billion.
Yi Xuanjing, all the profits from this transaction have been lost.
Since Zhongzhou had not received the spiritual rice from Dongzhou, they naturally refused to agree. The damaged spiritual rice could not be blamed on them, and they sternly requested Dongzhou to send the spiritual rice as soon as possible.
Dongzhou had no choice but to collect more storage bags and use teleportation arrays to transport them. The five major colleges searched for all the remaining storage bags, enough to hold two billion kilograms of spiritual rice at a time. Then these tens of thousands of storage bags were transported by three hundred people.
The monk carries it on his back and activates the teleportation array to teleport to the Stargazing City under the Stargazing Sect for trade. Each teleportation array consumes high-grade Xuanjing equivalent to 1.2 million low-grade Xuanjing.
In the previous naval battle, Dongzhou had already lost all its profits. Every time it was teleported, Dongzhou lost money. The five colleges almost vomited blood in anger.
Therefore, in order to reduce losses, Five Elements Company and Xianmeng both purchased tens of thousands of storage bags to transport goods. Dongzhou lacked storage bags, but Central Continent had no shortage of them. A large number of people died in the battle, leaving their storage bags
There is a huge surplus, and Tang Shuwen will not fail to borrow it.
In this way, Dongzhou can carry five billion kilograms of spiritual rice at a time. After this transaction, Dongzhou still lost about five million Xuanjing, which was a huge loss.
Twenty billion kilograms of spiritual rice entered the territory of the Immortal Alliance, which was enough for them to survive this rice panic. The Immortal Alliance publicized this matter widely, and the casual cultivators saw that the major sects could continuously bring out spiritual rice.
Once your mind is at peace, the rumors will naturally dissipate.
However, during this turmoil, the casual cultivators were robbed by various hoarding merchants and purchased low-value spiritual rice at high prices. The two sides entered into a public opinion war again.
The Immortal League launched a public opinion offensive, accusing the Five Continents Alliance of squeezing the casual cultivators. They clearly had a sufficient supply of spiritual rice, but they continued to raise the price, causing casual cultivators to suffer heavy losses. The Five Continent Alliance used the hoarding merchants as an attack point, accusing them of
They colluded with each other and were incompetent. They regarded casual cultivators as pigs and dogs, looted and squeezed them at will, and announced their methods of squeezing casual cultivators and looting their wealth.
Take the farming monks of the Immortal Alliance as an example. Fortunately, they were able to get 300 Xuan Crystals per year through hard farming, which was enough for the monks to practice for one year.
With the consumption of spiritual rice, about one-third of the value of the three hundred mysterious crystals disappeared, which was not enough for practice.
As soon as this matter was announced, the casual cultivators in the Immortal Alliance were in an uproar. They were all indignant and strongly demanded that the Immortal Alliance severely punish those profiteers. The Immortal Alliance responded that the profiteers had already been punished.
But the Five Continents Alliance immediately revealed that the backends of these profiteers were all high-level officials of various sects in the Immortal Alliance, and their so-called punishment of profiteers was only punishment for some shopkeepers. No real profiteers were punished, and they were just playing tricks on casual cultivators.
As a result, the casual cultivators became angry, and countless people gathered in front of each mountain gate, demanding that the real murderer be severely punished or their losses be compensated.
This kind of situation has never been experienced by the Immortal League. Since ancient times, casual cultivators have been a mob with low strength. So what if someone from the sect bullies them? Do they dare to come for revenge? Even if they come, they will be slaughtered.
You deserve it, and the sect won't care. Anyway, there are many casual cultivators, and if you kill a group, more will appear.
But now, if we don't deal with this special situation well, we will lose most of our casual cultivators and lose most of our population tax.
Tang Shuwen really wanted to resolve the matter, but there were too many pig teammates. Before he could think of a way to resolve it, the conflict broke out, and it was those dudes who took action.
Although these dandies do not have a big picture and do not have much high IQ, they know very well that among a family's influence, they are the most worth abandoning. In peacetime, they can use family affection and other means to obtain the forgiveness of the family clan.
, but when the family clan cannot protect itself and needs to sacrifice something to protect itself, they are the first to be sacrificed.
As a result, these dudes panicked and went to plead for mercy, but no one dared to protect them at this time. Some ran away, hoping to hide somewhere to avoid the limelight, while some chose to resent the casual cultivators, thinking that these casual cultivators were
They were forcing them to death, so they took action against the casual cultivators.
The combat effectiveness of these casual cultivators is not worth mentioning. That is compared to genius monks like Lin Xiao. For most casual cultivators who are capable of opening and condensing meridians, these dudes are still incredible masters.
, the Dandy took his own guards and rushed into the crowd, killing everyone in all directions, and blood immediately flowed into rivers.
Among the Su Yu Sect, Tian Xuan Sect, Jade Immortal Sect and even the second-rate forces, it can be said that except for the Shenmu Sect, every family has someone who takes action against the casual cultivators. In one day, tens of thousands of casual cultivators were slaughtered.
Then an extremely terrible consequence happened. The wave of fleeing rogue cultivators broke out. The rogue cultivators could not defeat the major sects, but they did not want to be slaughtered like pigs and sheep. They were treated as fools and could not afford to offend them.
If you want to get up, then run away.
Within a few days, millions of casual cultivators escaped from the territory of the Immortal Alliance. Even Tiansu City, an extremely safe city in the hinterland of the Immortal Alliance, did the same. Tiansu City, with more than 1.5 million people, was destroyed in just three days.
Four to five million casual cultivators have left, and the resident population has dropped to one million, and is still decreasing.
The reduction of casual cultivators will lead to the bankruptcy of small and medium-sized businesses. Most of these small and medium-sized businesses are related to the Suyu Sect, and they all advised Tang Shuwen to come up with solutions as soon as possible.
Tang Shuwen was furious and ordered the murderers of the casual cultivators to be killed, and used a large amount of resources to compensate the families of the casual cultivators. This slightly eased the flow of fleeing cultivators, but it still could not be stopped, causing more serious consequences that Tang Shuwen did not expect.
It's the people of the Immortal Alliance who have lost their hearts...
