Emperor Yu descended the Four Pillars: to suppress demons, exorcise devils, deliver ghosts, and slay immortals. From the Four Pillars, Four Gates were born: the Dao Gate to slay demons, the Buddhis...
Chapter 199 You are actually doing purchasing on behalf of others! ?
As the actual operator of Tianxu Tower, Shen Ziqing basically stayed in Tianxu Tower. After wandering around for a while, Li Yanmo found Shen Ziqing buried in a pile of account books.
"Yo--Second brother, what are you doing?"
Shen Ziqing, who was calculating the expenses of Tianxu Tower, was startled. He raised his head and rubbed his eyes before asking uncertainly, "Master?"
Li Yanmo was not a fool. He could tell at a glance that Shen Ziqing was in a very bad mental state at the moment. He stepped forward and took the account book from Shen Ziqing's hand. "Second brother, are you okay?"
Li Yanmo glanced at it casually and his eyes almost popped out.
What Shen Ziqing wrote was not an account book, but a proposal, with only one purpose, which was to make a profit!
The biggest problem with Ganzhou Tianxu Tower is that it is too high-end. Most of the sects in Ganzhou don't even have the qualifications to enter.
There are only four sects that have the ability to consume, Five Poisons, Bixue, Qingshan and Chongshan.
The blood of the five poisons has become history, Qingshan is our family, and Chongshan is our younger brother.
Letting sects outside Ganzhou come to consume is a good idea, but considering the shadow of Dayu in Tianxu Tower, there is a Tianxu Tower in all states, big, medium and small, and they do not want to be exposed to Dayu. Letting sects outside Ganzhou come to Ganzhou to consume in Tianxu Tower is not a long-term solution.
In the early stages it could be explained by the fact that Tianxu Tower did not trust the Taoist sect, but as the number of transactions increased and the amounts involved grew, those sects would surely think that they had already done business so many times and there was no need to be so defensive.
After all, most of those with that kind of spending power are on Dayu's surveillance list, and running to the small state of Ganzhou all the time will inevitably reveal flaws, which will arouse Dayu's suspicion. Dayu cannot be blind every time. If he is blind too many times, the Taoists will start to suspect him.
In order to avoid such a development, they had no choice but to add a new Tianxu Building, and from then on they fell into the dilemma of paying off more and more debts.
Therefore, in Shen Ziqing's plan, for the next period of time, Tianxu Tower in Ganzhou would do everything possible to reject the goodwill from sects outside Ganzhou.
As for the goods stockpiled in Tianxu Tower in Ganzhou, they were transferred to Tianxu Tower in Jingzhou through Tiexin Chamber of Commerce and sold to the Jingzhou sect during transportation.
It’s actually a purchasing agent! ! !
After all these operations... maybe you can really make a profit!
"Master, I'm fine," Shen Ziqing scratched his face awkwardly, "But Master, how is your recovery going?"
"It's just so-so," Li Yan closed the account book and was thinking when he noticed Shen Ziqing's current cultivation level.
The tenth level of Qi training is perfected and is only one step away from building the foundation.
Li Yanmo was a little surprised, "Second Brother, have you hit a bottleneck?"
With the resources of Tianxu Tower and the spiritual fruits of Taixu Sect, it shouldn’t be difficult for Shen Ziqing to build his foundation.
“Master, I’m just… a little confused,” Shen Ziqing said with a bitter smile.
It had actually been some time since he reached the great perfection of the tenth level of Qi training. He had always had the feeling that as long as he wanted, he could break through and become a foundation-building cultivator. He himself was also very anxious to become a foundation-building cultivator.
However, even if he became a foundation-building cultivator with his talent, he could not help Li Yanmo in any way and would always be just a burden. Maybe, because of the longer lifespan, it will hinder Li Yanmo for a longer time.
The conversation between Jian Xin and Zhuge Moer also reinforced his thoughts.
Li Yanmo's goal is not just to earn a few spirit stones. Even Tianxu Tower is just a small piece of the puzzle in Li Yanmo's grand ambitions. This grand undertaking cannot afford even the slightest mistake.
The world of cultivating immortals is cruel, and his strength will definitely become a flaw in this grand undertaking.
Therefore, Shen Ziqing didn't want to live that long. He wanted to squeeze his potential as much as possible during his lifetime. If he could help Li Yanmo even a little bit, Shen Ziqing would be satisfied.
"Really? Second brother, put your work at Tianxu Tower aside for now and go out for a walk. It just so happens that Tiexin Chamber of Commerce is about to send the goods to Jingzhou. You can follow them and see the scenery."
Li Yanmo threw Shen Ziqing's proposal aside, stretched out his hand and lifted Shen Ziqing up from the chair.
"Ah? Master, wait a minute, what should we do about the work at Tianxu Tower?!"
Shen Ziqing was a little anxious, but how could he, who was only at the tenth level of Qi training, possibly defeat Li Yanmo, who was at the 300th level of Qi training? So he was dragged out of Tianxu Tower by Li Yanmo without any resistance.
The brightness in Tianxu Building is always appropriate, especially in Shen Ziqing's office.
But when he walked out of Tianxu Tower, when the sun fruit fell, Shen Ziqing still subconsciously raised his hand to block it in front of his eyes.
"Second brother, I didn't accept you as my apprentice just to let you die on that chair," Li Yanmo raised his hand and patted Shen Ziqing's head and rubbed it hard, "If you want to change something, now is always the best opportunity."
Shen Ziqing stared at Li Yanmo in a daze, wanting to say something, but because his mind was blank, he blurted out, "Master, I want to help you."
Li Yanmo was stunned, scratched his face, thought for a while and raised his finger, "Second brother, it is good to have a goal, but if you only have the goal in your eyes, then you will inevitably want to take shortcuts."
"Are you sure you're doing the right thing?"
Shen Ziqing was speechless.
In order to help Li Yanmo, he did not want to break through and controlled his own lifespan so as not to become a flaw in Li Yanmo's grand ambitions in the future.
This is indeed a shortcut.
"Master, I..."
"Well, there is a long way to go, and you are still young. If you take a long detour, you may be able to find the right direction," Li Yanmo interrupted Shen Ziqing and patted Shen Ziqing's arm with a smile, "Remember to have a good sleep and take a bath before leaving, so as not to let Miss Tie laugh at us."
"And your parents, no, your fellow apprentices, don't let them worry too much."
"As for Tianxu Tower, you don't have to worry about it. Master, I got 40 billion middle-grade spirit stones from the late car this time."
“…”
Shen Ziqing exhaled, leaned forward and bowed, "Thank you for your trouble, Master."
"have a good rest."
Shen Ziqing turned around and walked out with big strides. After saying hello to his parents, he went home. After washing up, he lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
He slept for a whole day, and Shen Ziqing didn't wake up until dawn the next day.
Although he still couldn't think of any good solution, Shen Ziqing felt very relaxed.
After saying goodbye to Li Yanmo, Shen Ziqing took a flying ship to the Tiexin Chamber of Commerce.
Since the establishment of the Jingzhou trade line, Tiexin Merchants' status in Ganzhou has risen rapidly. The president of Tiexin Chamber of Commerce announced his abdication because his heart was too fragile, and Tie Xiaoyan took over Tiexin Chamber of Commerce.
As soon as Tie Xiaoyan took office, she dealt with the aristocratic families in Sunset City with thundering means. All the aristocratic families except the Xie family were severely damaged. But Tie Xiaoyan was also very sensible. After shocking the noble families, she devoted all her energy to the development of Ganzhou and declined all the goodwill attempts from the cultivators.
In just two months, Sunset City's tax revenue reached its highest point in history.
But the governor of Sunset City was not very happy, because Shen Ziqing stabbed him in the waist with a smile, while the other governors of Ganzhou covered his mouth with a smile, preventing him from making any sound.
So when he heard that Shen Ziqing was coming, the governor of Xiyang City announced to the public that he had kidney deficiency and was not fit to see anyone.
I was afraid that Shen Ziqing would come to discuss the issue of dividends.
