After a long time.
Just as Chen Daoxuan was breaking out in cold sweat, Zhou Mubai nodded and said, “”Good swordsmanship!”
Hearing this praise, Chen Daoxuan heaved a sigh of relief.
“Senior, you flatter me.”
Zhou Mubai shook his head.” A good sword art is a good sword art. If your bone age isn’t even twenty yet and you can’t even be considered a good sword art with half a foot in the door of sword intent, then wouldn’t all the sword cultivators in the world be ashamed?”
Hearing this.
Chen Daoxuan didn’t know how to retort, so he lowered his head and didn’t say anything.
Seeing that Chen Daoxuan was silent, Zhou Mubai smiled and said, “”Little friend, what do you think of Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance?”
He hesitated for a moment.
“Senior, do you want to hear the truth or lies?” Chen Daoxuan cupped his hands.
“How about the truth? So what if it’s a lie?
” The lie is that the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance can’t even withstand a single blow and can’t be compared to the Guang’ an Prefecture at all.”
Oh, you mean that the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance will pose a great threat to our Guang’ an Prefecture?” Zhou Mubai’s eyes lit up.
“Indeed!”
Chen Daoxuan nodded.” Although the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s strength is far inferior to the Zhou Family’s, it has joined forces with most of the Immortal Cultivation Families in Guang’ an Prefecture. It is not lacking in financial resources.
The policy they adopted is to support itinerant cultivators and use itinerant cultivators to drive the development of the Immortal Alliance. In this way, they will definitely take away a large amount of the popularity of itinerant cultivators in Guang ‘an Prefecture.”
“Guang ‘an Prefecture doesn’t rely on the wandering cultivator market. It’s supported by the core business district.” Zhou Mubai shook his head.
“You can’t say that.”
Chen Daoxuan paused.” May I ask, who are the groups that support the core business district?”
Zhou Mubai remained silent.
The groups that supported the core business district were the Foundation Building families that had jointly established the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, as well as the Qi Refinement families with the largest number.
The Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s move had completely emptied the Guang’ an Prefecture of its resources.
Of course.
Not all clans had joined Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, such as the Chen Clan of Shuanghu Island.
However, as long as ten percent of the families joined the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, the losses caused to Guang’ an Prefecture would be immeasurable.
Moreover, those neutral families that had not joined the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance would definitely move some of their businesses to the newly built Ling Zhou City in the future.
For example, the Chen family of Twin Lake Island had promised Old Ancestor Yang that they would open a magic tool shop in Spirit Day City.
This would have a huge impact on Guang ‘an Prefecture.
” I admit that the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s move has indeed impacted Guang’ an Prefecture greatly. However, 1 still think that they can’t defeat our Zhou Clan because they are not strong enough.”
“Why do they have to beat the Zhou family? The Yang family, Wu family, and Zhao family, who had established Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, did not have much interest in Guang’ an Prefecture.
Now, every bit of profit they take from Guang ‘an Prefecture is a victory.”
“Phew!”
Zhou Mubai heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
“Your foresight is even more surprising than your talent in the Tao of the sword. If it were you, how would you solve this problem?”
“If it were me, I would follow Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s policy.”
Chen Daoxuan said decisively.
“What do you mean?”
Zhou Mubai looked at him with interest.
Chen Daoxuan held his breath and explained, “”According to the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s propaganda, they will build hundreds of spirit veins of various grades within a radius of ten thousand miles of the newly built Lingzhou City for the cultivation of itinerant cultivators. The premise is that the itinerant cultivators must open up spirit fields and grow spirit herbs in the spirit veins.
In the long run.
The Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s policy would definitely bring them huge benefits.
With the spirit vein, the itinerant cultivators could cultivate and supply the various resources they grew to Spirit Day City.
Spirit Day City could also collect taxes from the transactions between itinerant cultivators and clan cultivators.
“In this way, a perfect cycle can be formed.”
Chen Daoxuan paused.” But this method has a natural drawback.”
“Oh? What is it?”
Zhou Mubai’s eyes lit up. After Chen Daoxuan’s narration, he also felt that the Yang family’s actions were brilliant. Other than using force to suppress them, the Zhou family seemed to be unable to find any good way to break out of this situation.
In the Infinite Star Sea, the Qian Yuan Sword Sect would not sit idly by if the Zhou Family and the Yang Family, who were at the level of the Zifu Family, wanted to use force directly.
This was also the most helpless part of the Zhou family.
The Zhou Family’s fist was big, but not as big as the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
” That means the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance doesn’t have enough Spiritual Stones!”
“Not enough spirit stones?”
Zhou Mubai frowned and looked at Chen Daoxuan in confusion.
Seeing his confused look, Chen Daoxuan explained, “”The Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance artificially cultivated spirit veins, built Spirit Day City, and lent spirit stones to itinerant cultivators to open up spirit fields and plant spirit herbs.
In the short term, it would consume a large number of spirit stones, and it would even consume more than 90% of the reserve spirit stones of the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance.
At that time, what will these rogue cultivators and clan disciples use to trade with each other?”
Zhou Mubai couldn’t help but understand when he heard this.
To put it simply, it was a deflating economy.
Spirit stones were very different from money in the secular world. Although they were the basic currency of the cultivation world, they were also a kind of resource that could be consumed.
Once the consumption of spirit stones was too high, it would affect the transaction and cause a deflation.
At this time, if the Zhou family brought a large number of spirit stones into Spirit Day City to sweep the goods, they would be able to buy a large number of goods at an extremely low price, which would cause a heavy blow to the economy of Spirit Day City.
At that time.
Individual cultivators would find that the resources they had painstakingly planted for a year or several years had depreciated by several times or even more than ten times.
When he spent money again, he would find that the price of goods had returned to its original state or even higher, and a large amount of wealth had been harvested.
After discovering this scene.
The secret practitioners would definitely be unhappy.
If the Zhou Clan had the same policy as Spirit Day City, it was easy to imagine what the itinerant cultivators would choose.
After hearing Chen Daoxuan’s detailed explanation.
Zhou Mubai’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, and his gaze towards Chen Daoxuan was filled with admiration.
Daoxuan, you don’t mind me calling you like this, right? ”
Zhou Mubai said amiably.
“Senior Zhou, please do as you please!”
Chen Daoxuan cupped his hands.
“Xuan, how old are you this year?” Zhou Mubai asked with a smile.
“Senior Zhou, I’m eighteen this year.”
“Are you married?”
Chen Daoxuan suddenly had a bad premonition and stammered, “”I am focused on cultivation and have no intention of getting married.”
Zhou Mubai looked at him deeply and said, “”What do you think of my Zhou family?”
“Good!”
Chen Daoxuan said the word ‘good’, but then he felt that it was a little inappropriate, so he added,”Very good!”
“You don’t have to comfort me. I know that in your eyes, the Zhou family has always been overbearing in Guang ‘an Prefecture. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have formed the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance to fight against us.”
Zhou Mubai paused.” Your plan is very good, but I don’t plan to use it. Do you know why?”
“Senior Zhou, 1 don’t know.”
“Because no matter what, we’re all cultivators of Cangzhou. Even if we go to the battlefield in the future, we’ll still be comrades in the same city pass.
If the Southern Mountain Pass is lost, the Qianyuan Sword Sect will definitely be recovered in the future. Tell me, if we are so aggressive to our comrades, how can we fight against the enemy together on the battlefield in the future?”
“This … 1 was too short-sighted.”
Zhou Mubai shook his head.” No matter how the Guang ‘an Prefecture cultivators fight, we have to have a limit. If you exceed this limit, not only will the Qian Yuan Sword Sect not tolerate you, but the Zhou family will also not tolerate you.”
Just like how you just killed that female cultivator from the Yun Nation. If you had chosen to secretly let her go, no matter how outstanding your talent in the Dao of the Sword was, I would have killed you with a single strike.
Remember, in the Infinite Star Sea, colluding with the enemy is a capital crime!”
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan lowered his head.
He knew that the woman in front of him must have followed him all the way here. Perhaps Zhou Mubai already knew that this woman from the Yun Nation was hiding in the Chen Clan’s magical equipment shop last night.
When Chen Daoxuan raised his head again.
There was no one in front of him. Zhou Mubai had long disappeared, leaving only a jade slip floating in front of him.
“This is my experience in comprehending sword intent. I’ll give it to you.”
“Thank you, Senior Zhou!”
Chen Daoxuan bowed..
