Fairy, Please Let Me Explain

Chapter 141 The Wanxiang Sect's Plan (Two in One)

No one doesn't like money, and no one thinks that he has made enough money so he doesn't make it.

This is true for people, and it is even more true for sects.

Because Xu Xinyao took the initiative to tie the knot,

The Wanxiang sect does not need to purchase expensive "formation blueprints", nor does it need to pay extra high fees to the "formation master", but only needs to pay for the formation materials.

However, although Shengshan County is only a county seat, the scale of the city is actually very large due to the once prosperous trade of monsters and beasts.

Xu Yuan didn't understand formations, but he had read a lot of newspapers from the Xiangguo Mansion.

Of course, there are also relevant information about the initial investment and later output of building the formation.

In order to build a phantom array covering such a large area of Shengshan County, Xu Yuan roughly estimated that the silver needed to purchase materials would be a million taels.

certainly,

This is money for purchasing materials at market prices.

As such a behemoth, the Wanxiang Sect naturally has its own supply channels for goods, but even with this calculation, the expenditure for establishing this psychedelic formation should be above 600,000 taels.

six hundred thousand taels

The Wanxiang sect is not a single person, but a collection of interests. It is impossible for it to spend so much money to accompany the fourth sister in charity.

The reason for choosing to invest must be because you can get more things.

But now the Wanxiang sect just lost the way to make money and ran away

"Hey, Mr. Zhou?"

was thinking,

A clear female voice suddenly came from the street with people coming and going, with a hint of excitement:

"Zhou-gong-zi, what are you doing standing here?"

"."

Xu Yuan subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice, but after seeing the person, he suddenly realized that the voice was actually calling him.

On the opposite side of the busy market, two young men were looking at him, and one of them, a girl with a pure and beautiful face, was bouncing around and waving at him.

Seeing each other, Xu Yuan reacted slightly, and recognized the two as the pair of sect disciples whom he had met in the deserted village of the Li family earlier.

Zhou Xiaohe and Li Erzhu.

After a second of silence, Xu Yuan also smiled and nodded at them.

He remembered that these two were members of the Wanxiang sect, and their status should not be low. Why are they still here now?

Seeing that Xu Yuan recognized her, Zhou Xiaohe immediately pulled Li Erzhu, who was beside him with a dull expression, and walked towards Xu Yuan.

come near,

Li Erzhu cupped his fists politely:

"Brother Zhou, long time no see."

Zhou Xiaohe poked his head and said with a smile:

"Master Zhou, why are you here?"

Xu Yuan smiled with both eyes:

"I happened to pass by and went to the city to buy some supplies. Miss Zhou, why are you here?"

Without hesitation, Zhou Xiaohe pointed to Li Erzhu beside him and replied:

"The idiot heard that there are monsters and beasts here, and they are clamoring to come to eliminate the monsters. After walking to get rid of the monsters, they came to Shengshan County. They just came to sell some monster pills. I didn't expect to meet Mr. Zhou. hey-hey."

Xu Yuan glanced at the silent Li Erzhu in surprise, and said with a smile:

"Brother Li is really chivalrous."

Li Erzhu shook his head, his voice was very weak:

"Just trying to do what I can."

Zhou Xiaohe waved his hands, looked at Xu Yuan, then at the plaque of Fenghai Chamber of Commerce, and asked:

"The things Mr. Zhou wants to buy are difficult to purchase, do you need a big chamber of commerce?"

Xu Yuan nodded, then asked in a low voice:

"Well, Ms. Zhou, I remember that Fenghai Chamber of Commerce should belong to your Vientiane Sect. Why is it closed today?"

Zhou Xiaohe blinked her eyes when she heard this, and shook her head:

"I don't know. Daddy never let me ask about these things. Maybe it's because of the tide of monsters. Half a decade ago, a senior brother came to tell us to go back to the sect quickly and don't stay in this area."

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

It seems that the reason why the Wanxiang sect withdrew from Shengshan County was mostly because of this wave of monsters.

It's not too surprising.

For more than a month, he and Ran Qingmo have basically been careful every step of the way in the Wanxing Mountains.

On the one hand, it was because of Tianyan, and on the other hand, it was because of the monsters in the Wanxing Mountain Range.

Although most of the monsters are not of high grade, but ants eat elephants, and they can only run when they meet them.

Once dragged by thousands of monsters, and the number of monsters keeps adding up, even if there are Saint Remnant Soul and Ran Qingmo, they will have to hold grudges in the mountain.

Seeing that Xu Yuan didn't speak, Zhou Xiaohe pondered for a while, then said with a coquettish smile:

"What do Mr. Zhou want to buy? Medicinal herbs, elixirs, or other things. I am quite familiar with the chamber of commerce in Shengshan County, so I can advise you~"

Xu Yuan came back to his senses, hesitating slightly:

"Will it be troublesome?"

Zhou Xiaohe stared at Xu Yuan's face intently, shaking his head:

"No, no, we happen to have nothing to do these two days, and it's okay to go a day or two late, right, idiot."

talking,

Zhou Xiaohe poked Li Erzhu beside him with his elbow.

Li Erzhu hesitated a little, and replied sternly:

"Xiao He, the suzerain let you."

Zhou Xiaohe immediately glared at the other party: "Oh, if you don't want to wait, you can go back first!"

"." Li Erzhu closed his mouth.

Zhou Xiaohe cleared his throat and said with a smile:

"Master Zhou, what do you want to buy?"

"."

Seeing that the two hesitated slightly, Xu Yuan whispered the names of more than a dozen herbs:

"Soul Dove Grass, Chimo Huanli Flower, Soul Ivy"

After speaking slowly, Xu Yuan looked at the other party's expression quietly.

These are medicinal materials that can help the saint's remnant soul recover its soul power.

Because he doesn't have a body, the old man's soul power can't recover by itself, and it will be gone after using it. To recover, he can only rely on foreign objects such as elixir or medicinal materials.

Several people fell silent for a while,

Zhou Xiaohe's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and soon revealed a look of embarrassment, and said in a low voice:

"Young Master Zhou, I only know a few of the herbs you mentioned."

Xu Yuan was not surprised, there are so many medicinal materials in the world, he just said:

"As long as it's what I say, it's fine, and the price is not a problem."

Zhou Xiaohe blushed slightly, and shook her head:

"Mr. Zhou Zhou is not a matter of price. There is no place to buy this medicinal material in Shengshan County."

"No?"

Xu Yuan sighed, paused, and asked again: "What about the flying monsters? Class C will do."

The Department of Alien Beasts is divided into two categories of monsters in the world, military and civilian, and two categories of flying and ground, A, B, C, D, E, and Ji from top to bottom.

Xu Changge's black eagle is a first-class military flying monster, and the price is very expensive.

Judging from the amount of money held by Xu Yuan, at most he can only buy a Class C flying monster for civilian use.

But even so, Zhou Xiaohe still shook his head:

"No."

"Ding and others' flying monsters are also fine."

"nor."

"Wait?"

"Master Zhou, there are only monster eggs and cubs in Shengshan County."

"." Xu Yuan.

"." Zhou Xiaohe.

There is nothing in the small place, Xu Yuan sighed slightly:

"Thank you, Ms. Zhou, for reminding me. It seems that Shengshan County doesn't have what I need for the time being."

Zhou Xiaohe was also a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice:

"How about Mr. Zhou, why don't you follow us back to Vientiane City as a guest? There are many chambers of commerce in Vientiane City, and many large chambers of commerce have branches in the city."

Xu Yuan did not answer immediately.

He came to this place only to buy things. Since there is nothing to sell, there is naturally no reason to stay now.

What's more, Wanxiangzong's actions made it clear that there was a problem in Shengshan County, and only fools would stay here.

After pondering for a while, Xu Yuan looked at Ran Qingmo who had been standing quietly by the side, and said:

"Ying'er, what do you say?"

"Listen to you." Ran Qingmo replied softly.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan let out a breath, and slightly cupped his fists at Zhou Xiaohe:

"Then this journey will bother you two, but before we leave, we still need to go shopping for some sundries."

Zhou Xiaohe became very excited when he heard this:

"Don't bother, let's go, only this idiot is suffocating all day long, by the way, Mr. Zhou, where is the little sister next to you?"

The Wanxiang Sect was not built in the mountains, but beside a waterfall on a huge cliff.

Due to the transpiration of the waterfall, the Vientiane School is shrouded in water mist all year round. Looking down from a high altitude, the buildings are row upon row, like a fairyland.

The corridor leading to the important place of the Zongmen "Conference Hall" was winding and winding, and two middle-aged men walked along it, accompanied by the sound of unhurried footsteps and small chatter.

The bearded man asked softly:

"Old Five, I heard that Fucheng has sent secret envoys over again?"

The fifth child was silent for a moment, then replied:

"Well, it is said that our Wanxiang sect is going to reinforce Jiugu Town. The imperial frontier army there is almost unable to hold on. This year's wave of monsters is very strong."

The bearded man thought for a while, then sighed:

"Demon, and his mother is a demon!

"Our ancestors of the Wanxiang Sect chose the sect next to the Wanxing Mountain Range. It was the stupidest decision. We deal with these monsters every day. Killing one crop will grow another crop for you next year."

"Hey, how did the lord suzerain reply?"

The fifth thought for a while, then replied in a low voice:

"Sovereign Lord asked that kid Qi Changyu to bring a group of more than a hundred inner disciples there."

The bearded man frowned:

"Really send someone there? It's a hard-hit area every year, Changyu, don't stay there."

The fifth child laughed:

"Don't worry, the suzerain didn't arrange flying monsters for them. If they walk over, it may be too late."

The bearded man grinned when he heard the words, and nodded:

"The imperial court wants us to be recruited without giving any benefits. How can there be such a good thing? It's still easy for the suzerain to plan."

paused,

The bearded man restrained his smile and asked in a low voice:

"The few large fortresses on the border should be fine, right?

"If some small towns in the corners fall, there will be the most dead people. Those places in Nandu County cannot be lost. If monsters are thrown in, many families of our Wanxiang sect are in that area."

The fifth child answered quite easily:

"Don't worry, we have been preparing since years ago. The Thousand Illusion Army of the Wanxiang Sect has plenty of supplies. Both Tianyin Temple and Fengqingmen have greeted each other and will support each other."

Hearing this, the bearded man shook his head lightly:

"The imperial court is also really funny.

"Decades ago, people from the sect like me were squeezed out of the government system. At that time, they should not have imagined that the situation would deteriorate to the point it is now, right?

"It's stupid."

In order to prevent the sect's influence from further infiltrating the local area, the imperial court has gradually removed the sect's children from the local power organizations little by little decades ago.

If the disciples of the Zongmen are the officials in charge of the government, the Zongmen will naturally give all-out help to ensure that the situation under their rule is calm.

But nowadays, there are very few sect disciples who are able to hold official positions in the ruling party. Naturally, the sect does not treat those state shepherds and prefects transferred by the court so well. They are respectful to government orders. , many sects directly turned a deaf ear to their decrees.

And this is one of the reasons why refugees are everywhere.

The fifth child took a deep breath:

"It's impossible for the imperial court to insist on it all the time. It will change back to the ancestral system. It is estimated that when His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, the black-clothed Prime Minister Xu Yinhe should be subdued."

The bearded man also smiled lightly when he heard the words:

"Xiangguo Mansion is in full swing. If it settles down in another hundred years, it is estimated that it will be a big family again. It is not certain that it will be able to establish a sect."

"Hehe, I don't know where Xu Yinhe will choose the location. Most likely it will be in the Jiangnan Mansion. Last time, the Nine Swords Sect at the Jiangnan Mansion in the Tianyuan Grand Tournament, all of them are rich and virtuous."

After all,

The two looked at each other and smiled.

This is the general consensus of the sect.

Today's Shengshang and Xiangguo's Mansion may indeed have some ideological problems, but the problem is not serious, because reality will make them get rid of this wrong thinking.

The world is not the world of Great Yan, but the world of Great Yan and Zongmen.

Without the cooperation of the sect, although the great flames are still prosperous, there has been chaos in just over twenty years.

When you realize your mistakes and change back to the ancestral system, and pay a price, everyone sits down and everything goes on as usual.

Your Li family is also the Tian family, and your Xiangguo Xu family is still the number one family in the world.

Both of them didn't speak any more, and walked along the winding corridor all the way into the important meeting hall of Wanxiangzong.

open the door,

The chairs of the two factions were neatly arranged on both sides of the lobby, both of which were full of people, and an old man with a goatee sat on the main seat.

The Sovereign of Vientiane sat on the main seat and looked at the two people who had arrived late, and smiled slightly:

"Fifth, youngest, sit down, I'm talking about you."

The two smiled, walked to their seats and sat down.

Old Five smiled and said:

"Sovereign Master, you are so anxious to call us here because you want to discuss the matter of Shengshan County?"

The Vientiane Sovereign smiled with his deep eyes and said:

"Of course, my Wanxiang Sect has invested more than two million taels of silver in Shengshan County this time, so naturally it needs to be taken seriously."

The bearded man touched his chin, with a playful smile:

"It's all thanks to the fourth lady of the Xiangguo Mansion. If the old man Xu Yinhe was not so proud, I would have wanted to go to the capital to propose marriage to him in the Xiangguo Mansion."

The Sovereign of Vientiane smiled noncommittally:

"That girl's formation master is from the old man Jiang He. It is natural that her attainments are very high. If it weren't for her psychedelic formation, I might have to postpone this plan for several years."

"Okay, my lord, have all the refugees gathered?"

"Basically, it has gathered more than 200,000 people. There are about 170,000 residents in the city. Including caravan guards, scattered rangers, and permanent border troops, there are probably more than 20,000 people with cultivation."

"Where are the monsters?"

"I have prepared enough incense to lure animals."

"The suzerain means that you can fight?"

"nature."

"Will it leave no trace?"

"Don't worry, it's very clean, it's made by monsters."

"hehe."

Everyone present laughed, because they all knew how much benefit this plan would bring to their Wanxiang Sect.

The Sovereign of Vientiane knocked on the chair, paused, and said loudly:

"Okay, everyone is here, then the last vote will be held."

words fall,

"Shua, Shua, Shua!"
