The weather is gradually getting hotter, and the wheat is about to fill. Whether we can have a good harvest of this season's wheat seeds depends on this month.
Three months have passed since the confrontation between Wang and Jiaolong in front of Dingpu Ferry. Thanks to the establishment of the flying chariot system, the discussion on this matter has also spread from Changning
Wei continued to spread outwards, which greatly increased the prestige of the Wang family in the entire Longzuo County.
To use Wang Shouzhe's words on Earth, the Changning Wang family was a hot search topic in Longzuo County.
However, the heat will eventually dissipate.
A few months have passed, and Wang's life has long since returned to calm, and he continues to develop rapidly.
"System Spirit."
In the side hall of Wang Shouzhe's courtyard.
As the weather gets hotter, the curtains in the room have been replaced by gauze curtains. The azure gauze curtains sway in the wind, which seems to add a bit of coolness to the room.
Over the years, Wang Shouzhe's courtyard has not changed much. At the strong request of Longyan Ancestor, some more expensive furnishings were slightly added, but the main focus is still on comfort.
Wang Shouzhe was sitting in a comfortable lounge chair made of spirit wood, his eyes half-closed and his fingers tapping on the armrests, as if thinking about something.
"Ding dong~ Weapon Spirit Xiaoxue, meet the master."
A two-dimensional projection of a beautiful girl appeared in front of Wang Shouzhe. She had "slender" legs, exaggerated body proportions, big eyes, long snow-colored hair, and cat ears...
As for why she was named Xiaoxue? That's because her original body was a blood nest weapon spirit, and the name "Xiaoxue" didn't sound good, so she simply changed her name to "Xiaoxue".
Wang Shouzhe was quite satisfied with her image and voice. He spent a lot of time to create this look through the system's modeling panel.
Every time he sees Qi Ling Xiaoxue, Wang Shouzhe feels like he has regained his lost youth.
"How much cash does our Wang family have that we can mobilize?" Wang Shouzhe asked casually.
"Ding dong, I am reporting to the master that I can mobilize five million dry gold." The voice of the weapon spirit Xiaoxue was particularly sweet and sweet in front of Wang Shouzhe.
"Only five million dry gold?" Wang Shouzhe frowned slightly, "I remember last year, the family's pure annual income reached more than three million."
"Ding dong~~ Master, the family expenses are too great. The expenses for food, clothing, housing, transportation, cultivation resources, spiritual food, etc. for all clan members, generals, and servants have reached 1.2 million. Shouda Trading Company
By the way, our Wang family has invested 600,000 yuan, which has not yet been repaid. The expenses for land development, water conservancy projects, road planning, and other public facilities in Ping'an Town have also reached more than 200,000 yuan, as well as the expenses of the intelligence group, employment
Expenses, favors..." Qi Ling Xiaoxue explained.
"Okay, I know it's a lot of expenses." Wang Shouzhe waved his hand to shut her up, "Check the main page of the system list." Today's Wang family is indeed very profitable, but because many members of the tribe have been trained with the highest standards, so that
The cost is huge.
Especially for Longyan Ancestor, in order to cultivate a Purple Mansion Realm monk for the family as soon as possible, the resources invested every year are extremely extravagant. The supply of third-level and fourth-level spiritual flesh is open, and occasionally some fifth-level spiritual souls are purchased with huge sums of money. The animal meat replenishes her energy and blood.
Ancestor Longyan consumes one Great Spirit Gathering Pill worth three to four thousand dry gold in ten days! This amount alone costs more than one hundred thousand dry gold. One to two spiritual stones must be consumed every day, which is another It is an expenditure of 50,000 to 60,000 gold.
Plus some other expenses.
In short, Patriarch Longyan, who was only in the early stage of the Heavenly Realm, spent more than 200,000 yuan on cultivation every year. Not only was it far more than the expenses of the ordinary Heavenly Realm, it was even higher than the standard of the academy's genius. It’s an extravagant expense that will make Fang Youan cry...
The good thing in return is that Longyan Ancestor's cultivation level is constantly rising, and it is expected that he will reach the middle stage of the Heavenly Realm in no more than fifteen years.
Of course, Wang Shouzhe also wants to speed up the advancement of Longyan Ancestor, but now such consumption has actually reached the extreme of diminishing marginal effects, and no amount of resources will make it faster.
Let’s not talk about gossip for now.
As Wang Shouzhe finished speaking.
The system's main interface was neatly projected in front of him.

…
Compared with the last statistical list, the Changning Wang family's county prestige has reached the point where they can dominate the world with one hand, and they are almost unparalleled within the Changning Guard.
Even in the entire Longzuo County, Wang's reputation is soaring, reaching the point of fame. In addition, "the system has also opened up" the Guowang project, but the data is a bit disastrous.
Looking at the entire Daqian Kingdom, the Wang family in Changning can only be regarded as unknown.
The number of industrial projects has not increased much, but the various industries in the past have continued to develop gradually, bringing a huge amount of wealth to the Wang family.
In fact, with the development of the Wang family, the dominant position of cement, foreign glass, paper and other industries that were once regarded as pillar industries has gradually been replaced by farmland.
As the Wang family's strength grows day by day, the production plan for growing grain seeds that was once secretive has now become clear.
Wang's No. 19 rice seed and Wang's No. 23 wheat seed have been fully planted in Ping'an Town. The number of Wang's fertile fields in Ping'an Town has increased to ten thanks to land reclamation and vigorous development of terraced fields. Ten thousand acres.
From this income alone, after deducting 30% of city tax, county tax and national tax, 10% of Qian's channel fee, and other expenses, the annual net income reaches 340,000 dry gold.
The total fertile land under the jurisdiction of the common people has gradually increased to 120,000 acres. They also helped the Wang family grow grain seeds, with a total output of 6.7 million dry gold. From this, the Wang family could receive 700,000 to 80000 dry gold from the family tax. And the commission from grain seeds is about 170,000 to 80,000 gold.
This item is another net income of more than 200,000 gold.
The common people under the jurisdiction of the Wang family also benefited from helping the Wang family grow high-quality grains, and their incomes increased several times. It is precisely because of this that the common people in the Wang family's jurisdiction are very rich, making outsiders envious.
The only shortcoming is that after years of large-scale development, Pingan Town has reached a state of saturation, and it is difficult to significantly expand the total amount of fertile land.
Therefore, after the Wang family became stronger, they set their sights on the farmland of the in-law alliance and the farmland of other eighth- and ninth-grade families. They planted Wang's high-yielding grain seeds on their fertile fields, and purchased and sold them uniformly. .
This amount of money is relatively small. Every 10,000 acres of grain seeding can bring about 8,000 tons of income to the Wang family. The income seems to be average, but it cannot support the large amount.
In Changningwei and the surrounding areas, the total number of acres that the Wang family has reached a subsidy planting agreement with has exceeded 500,000 acres! This allows the Wang family to make a lot of money every year.
In addition, there are white jade spiritual rice grain seeds, red crystal spiritual rice grain seeds and other planting and sub-planting, which have also brought sufficient income to the Wang family.
Nowadays, the Wang family's grain seeds are selling well enough, and the total grain seeds are only 700,000 to 800,000 acres, which is far from enough for the consumption of the entire Longzuo County. Therefore, there is still a long way to go before the market is saturated.
Therefore, Wang Shouzhe set his sights outside the territory.
The development of foreign lands is a big plan that the Wang family has always longed for. There are large tracts of fertile land waiting to be developed. After all those lands are brought under their jurisdiction, the speed of Wang's wealth accumulation will increase dramatically again.
Foreign land reclamation is a huge systematic project, and the amount of funds required is by no means a small amount.
Five million dry gold! It’s enough for the early stage.
But in front of Wang Shouzhe, there is still a huge expense waiting for him. That is a kind of elixir called "Wuji Baodan", which is a higher-level sixth-grade elixir than the fifth-grade marrow-cleansing pill. Pin Bao Dan!
This elixir is extremely rare and precious, and even the Zifu family will flock to it. Its greatest effect is that it can make a small prodigy with middle-grade qualifications, who is still in the Qi Refining Realm, and who is born with a first-level bloodline, go against the will of heaven.
Destined to become a genius of the second bloodline.
According to Wang Shouzhe's grasp and inference of the information, its effectiveness is far greater than that of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, and it should be even more powerful than the "Primary Bloodline Improvement Fluid", but it definitely cannot reach the level of effectiveness of the Wedding Clothes Blood Gu King.
Logically speaking, Wang Shouzhe is already at the third level of bloodline. Even if he takes Wuji Bao Dan, it will have little effect on improving his bloodline.
However, don't forget that he got the opportunity to cleanse the marrow and cut off the fur after his bloodline qualifications were improved by a Wedding Cloth Blood Gu King, and he helped Fire Fox go through the catastrophe.
Various factors have pushed his bloodline to the peak state of the third level, and he is only a little short of breaking through to the fourth level.
If Wang Shouzhe had never used the Primary Bloodline Improvement Fluid, if he used it once, he might have a slight chance of reaching the fourth level of spiritual body. Unfortunately, his body had become resistant to the Primary Bloodline Improvement Fluid.
Secondly, he cannot seize the opportunity of younger generations to be promoted to genius.
Therefore, Wang Shouzhe has been looking for suitable natural materials, earthly treasures or elixirs that can help him break through all the shackles and become a great talent.
no way.
Wang Shouzhe was under too much pressure.
The ancestor of Longyan is a great genius, his wife is a great genius, the eldest daughter and the eldest son are all great geniuses...
If he cannot awaken the fourth level of bloodline before he is promoted to the Heavenly Realm, it will be even more difficult for him to become a great genius later on.
This time, the opportunity has come.
According to the news from Baibao Pavilion, the Baibao Pavilion branch of Monan County obtained a sixth-grade Wuji Baodan, which was auctioned in Monan County three months later.
Originally, according to the rules, auctions of the same level as the Infinite Treasure Pill were classified as high-level auctions. Ordinary seventh-grade or even ordinary sixth-grade families were not eligible to participate.
Fortunately, Wang's spending power at Nanliuwei's Baobao Pavilion is top-notch. He spent a lot of money and was treated like a VIP. Therefore, Nanliuwei Baobao Pavilion is willing to recommend Wang Shouzhe to participate in Monan County's high-level competition.
Auction, the premise is that the total bidding price is not less than two million dry gold!
The normal auction price of a "Wuji Precious Pill" is only about two hundred to three million dry gold. Usually only the super powerful sixth-grade aristocratic families or fifth-grade aristocratic families can afford it.
Two to three million dry gold is affordable for the Wang family.
But Wang Shouzhe has always been a conservative character, and he missed this Wuji Dan. He was not sure whether he would have another chance before he was promoted to the realm of heaven and man.
Therefore, he was determined to obtain this infinite treasure pill.
What he is most worried about is that if there is a family that also has "rigorous needs" and is determined to win, will five million dollars be enough?
"Alas, we are too poor after all." Wang Shouzhe sighed in his heart, "It's not easy to save some money."
Shouda Trading Company does have a large amount of funds temporarily accumulated. However, that fund will be used to expand the scale of Shouda Trading Company in the future, and even Wang Shouzhe has no right to use it for other purposes.
"That's all, let's raise two million as a reserve from the in-laws' family first." Wang Shouzhe frowned slightly, "To be on the safe side, then go to Qian's family to raise three million as a reserve. If you can't even get ten million...then just Can wait any longer."
…
A few days later.
In the "Purple Palace" Hotel in Longzuo County, Wang Shouzhe and the new head of the Qian family, Qian Xuehan, met secretly.
"Huh?"
As soon as Wang Shouzhe saw Qian Xuehan, he found that his temperament and charm seemed to have changed tremendously. Not only was his whole person full of confidence, but his aura had also changed. He was so energetic that he could hardly restrain himself.
"This junior has met Patriarch Shouzhe." Qian Xuehan bowed deeply at first, expressing his respect and gratitude to Wang Shouzhe, and then said with a smile, "It seems that Patriarch Shouzhe has also noticed. Thanks to Patriarch Shouzhe's care, Ling Xuehan Han has repeatedly made great achievements, and the ancestors are very happy. They gave this opportunity to the younger generation to enter the family inheritance relics. And the younger generation lived up to the expectations of the ancestors and successfully became the seed of the Zifu."
Zifu seeds?
That’s the genius! Qian’s family actually has a way to be promoted to the genius?
"Congratulations to the head of the Xuehan family, please don't call yourself a junior again." Wang Shouzhe was ashamed and thought to himself that the Qian family is worthy of being the Qian family. A Zifu family that can last for thousands of years really has a profound heritage.
However, Wang Shouzhe secretly deduced that the secrets the Qian family mastered were probably far inferior to those of the Shenwu Dynasty trial point. Otherwise, the Qian family would not be the Qian family they are today.
An opportunity to be promoted to a genius must be very rare and precious to Qian.
"The head of the Shouzhe family is kind to Xuehan." Qian Xuehan said stubbornly, "The reason why my ancestor was able to give me the opportunity to grow from Zifu is because I get along well with the Wang family."
"By the way, is the reason why the head of the Shouzhe family called Xuehan here this time to discuss the business of Shouda Trading Company? The younger generation has sent out various elders to try their best to speed up the purchase or lease of the spirit bird flying chariot. I promise to collect the money within the time limit. A total of one hundred and twenty~"
"That's not the case." Wang Shouzhe shook his head and then explained his intention.
"puff!"
Qian Xuehan, who was drinking spiritual tea, spit out a mouthful of tea and looked at Wang Shouzhe with horrified eyes: "Master Shouzhe, you actually plan to use 10 million dry gold to smash the Wuji Treasure Pill? Although this thing is precious and rare, But there are very few records of transactions exceeding three million dry gold."
"It's just an urgent need." Wang Shouzhe said truthfully, "If you miss this time, will you encounter this good opportunity again in the Year of the Monkey?"
Qian Xuehan almost cried. This time, Qian also wanted to participate in the auction and buy the Infinite Treasure Pill, which he kept as a family treasure. But the budget given by the family elders' council was 2.5 million. After all, money He is now betting on Shouda Trading Company and is already very short of funds.
Patriarch Shouzhe, your actions are too cruel. Do you want to give other families a glimmer of hope?
You really are rich and willful.
Alas, he is also the head of the family. Qian Xuehan found that his power was not as good as one-tenth of that of the head of the Shouzhe family. Not only was he, the head of the Xuehan family, restricted by the Presbyterian Council, he also had an ancestor from the Zifu Realm above his head who adjudicated family affairs.
