After hearing Wang Daoyuan's words, Gu Chengfeng's face lit up with joy.
Qingli County is within the Kingdom of Zhao and is the county that produces the most low-level weapon refining materials.
On the outskirts of the Tianzhan Mountains to the east, there are countless large and small mineral veins.
Coupled with the trade with the Shanbei demon clan and half-demon, this condition can be said to be unique.
If this business is completed, Linhai Prefecture can completely solve the problem of lack of refining materials.
Moreover, the Gu family and several other families do this business privately with the Wang family.
When selling magic weapons to casual cultivators, you can still make another profit from them without lowering the price.
Families in the world of immortality can make ends meet by relying on their own resources.
If you want to make a fortune, you have to rely on casual cultivation.
The two discussed for a long time and found that both sides had no shortage of spiritual stones, so they stopped trading spiritual stones.
The two sides adopted a barter method. The Linhai Prefecture used marine monster materials, including monster inner elixirs, in exchange for the weapon refining materials here.
Linhai Prefecture still gave some discounts, and the goods in Linhai Prefecture were sold according to the market price.
The price of goods in Qingli County is calculated as twice the market price.
Of course, if the Linhai Prefecture family sells it to casual cultivators at four or five times the price, this is beyond Wang Daoyuan's control.
After the two reached an agreement, Gu Chengfeng said goodbye and left.
Wang Daoyuan doesn't need to worry about the remaining details, they are managed by the Finance Hall of the County Prince's Mansion.
After Gu Chengfeng left, Wang Daoyuan looked at Zhong Zhenyang and asked, "I wonder what happened to Marquis Guiyi?"
Zhong Zhenyang smiled and said: "Your Majesty sealed us surrendered families in the north of the mountain, but did not designate a fiefdom.
I think it's because the land in the north of the mountain has been handed over to His Highness the County Prince and he doesn't want to overstep his bounds.
On behalf of several families, I have come to seek help from His Highness the County Prince."
I have to say that Zhao Huang is very good at getting things done.
After handing over Shanbei to Wang Daoyuan, he stopped interfering.
It's not like the Netherworld Sect before, which always wanted to do something.
He nodded and asked: "Which Lingshan do you like? Your Majesty has given me full authority to handle affairs in the north of the mountain.
But Shanbei is still a world of demons and half-demon, and they won’t listen to my instructions.
Even among those human forces, no one has taken the initiative to come to see me so far."
Zhong Zhenyang said flatteringly: "Those human forces didn't come to pay their respects because they are ignorant.
With the ability of His Highness the County Prince, the north of the mountain will be your fiefdom sooner or later.
If you want a fiefdom with Yin Qi, all you need is the nod from His Highness the County Prince, and we will handle the rest ourselves.
From now on, as long as the king of the county has orders, the ministers will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Although the fiefdoms of Zhong Zhenyang and others will be moved to the north of the mountain, they are not counted as people from Qingli County.
After all, their titles were personally conferred by Emperor Zhao, and Wang Daoyuan only managed the human clan forces in Shanbei on behalf of Emperor Zhao.
The relationship with them is only that of superiors and subordinates, not that of king and minister.
Wang Daoyuan's order was no match for Emperor Zhao's imperial edict.
Zhong Zhenyang calls himself a minister, which means he considers himself a minister of Qingli County. From now on, he will only listen to Wang Daoyuan and not to Zhao Huang.
Wang Daoyuan was a little confused: "Within two thousand miles north of Huiyan Mountain, the only place that produces Yin Qi is Xuanyin Spring.
But the Yin Qi over there has also dried up, and only the evil Qi is left. Where can you find a place with Yin Qi?"
Zhong Zhenyang smiled and said: "This is thanks to Your Highness the County Prince. You previously teamed up with the demon clan to deal with the corpse refining.
Afterwards, underground water veins were diverted to bring out the Yin Qi from the Ghost Cave.
The underground water veins are full of water. After flowing out of the Ghost Cave, it turns into a river and flows northwest.
The river has gathered many streams along the way, and now it has flowed out of the Tianzhan Mountains more than 20,000 miles north of Huiyan Mountain."
Wang Daoyuan also knew this. Such changes in the landscape could not be hidden from anyone.
Non-commercial cultivators call that river the Pluto River. After gathering many streams, the water volume almost catches up with the Qingxi River.
Moreover, the spiritual power contained in the river water is not low, comparable to the third-order low-grade water spiritual veins.
The concentration of Yin Qi is higher, reaching the third-level high-grade level, which has caught up with the Mingshui River before the Yin Qi disappeared.
Currently, evil cultivators have begun to settle there.
In a few decades, that place should become a gathering place for evil cultivators.
Ordinary families really don't dare to settle there.
But Zhong Zhenyang and others are evil cultivators themselves, and those wild fox Zen are nothing in front of them.
Wang Daoyuan reminded: "You have to think clearly. It is more than 20,000 miles away from Huiyan Mountain, and there are many demon and half-demon tribes in between.
Once you are attacked, the county will have no way to support you."
Zhong Zhenyang looked indifferent: "Prince, don't worry, my old bones can still last for a hundred years.
Although the demon clan is strong, its soul is weak.
We monks of the way of the walking dead are the best at controlling monsters.
In front of me, the fourth-level high-grade monsters are just easy to kill.
One hundred years is enough time for me to kill all the monsters around me.
As long as future generations can still produce golden elixir monks, relying on the formation, there will be no problem in preserving the foundation.
It's just that the northern part of the mountain is dangerous, and I want to leave a few descendants who practice the righteous methods to work in the prince's palace.
In the future, even if the family cannot withstand the monster, it will not be cut off."
Since Zhong Zhenyang insisted, Wang Daoyuan no longer objected.
The Wang family is currently mainly exploring the outer reaches of the Tianzhan Mountain Range, and there is no need to target the northern part of the mountain.
But the family will always grow, and in the future, it may be difficult to guarantee that it will expand northward.
If you don’t plan for the future, it’s better to plan ahead if you don’t plan for the moment.
Evil cultivators and rogue cultivators have always been the vanguard of the human race in reclaiming barbaric lands.
Zhong Zhenyang and others are consuming the demon clan in the north of the mountain, which saves them the thought of coming to the south of the mountain to cause trouble.
In the future, when the Wang family expands to the north of the mountain, there will be even less resistance.
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said: "Since you are not afraid, then I have no objection.
It's not a big deal to send clan members to serve in the county prince's palace. I'm all set.
However, I would like to remind you that there is a secret paradise near Baojing Lake Oasis.
There are a lot of zombies out there, so you have to be careful.
Those corpse-refiners are all extremely intelligent, and their leader is an old monster that is thousands of years old.
Although you are a first-rate master of golden elixirs and can easily refine corpses, when it comes to dealing with that old monster, you really may not be its opponent."
Zhong Zhenyang's face darkened: "A monster that is thousands of years old and has spiritual intelligence, could it be a ghost cultivator?"
Wang Daoyuan nodded: "It's the ghost cultivator. When I killed the corpse before, he communicated with me via voice transmission.
This ghost cultivator can control the fourth-level refined corpses, and these refined corpses are much stronger than those previously refined by the Netherworld Sect."
Zhong Zhenyang thought for a long time before replying: "Thank you for the reminder, Your Highness, but Your Highness had previously united with the demon clan to kill and refine the corpse.
The ghost cultivator only dared to communicate with His Highness, but did not dare to take action. He must have some scruples.
Since you are a ghost cultivator, you will inevitably suffer thunder disasters.
He can live for thousands of years, and his strength is not so strong that he has no scruples. He must have relied on the secret realm of Underworld to hide his secrets.
This person will definitely not dare to leave the Underworld Secret Realm easily, and he will only send the corpse to be refined, so I am still confident."
Wang Daoyuan nodded and said: "In that case, I won't say more.
By convention, the fiefdom of a marquis should not exceed a thousand miles, that of an earl should not exceed five hundred miles, and that of a viscount should not exceed three hundred miles.
You just go to the Pluto River, choose Lingshan yourself, and then report to me.
Finally, I want to remind you that my Qingli Commandery can accommodate families, but not sects.
I don’t want to be stabbed by the sect like Emperor Zhao Lie again.”
No matter how strong a family is, it still needs mortals as its foundation.
In the bitter cold land in the north of the mountains, it is not easy to grow.
However, it recruited evil cultivators and expanded too quickly.
Zhong Zhenyang and others hold the inheritance of Netherworld Sect in their hands. Once the gate of the mountain is reopened by the Netherworld River, they will recruit evil cultivators.
I am afraid that within a few hundred years, there will be another Netherworld Sect.
Although the sect is not as united as the family, a group of evil cultivators who have little concern for mortals want to cause trouble, and the damage caused is still huge.
After hearing this, Zhong Zhenyang quickly raised his hands and said: "Prince, don't worry, I just want to keep the family's reputation, there is no other intention."
