Chapter 524: Chen Xingyue meets Chen Ning, father and daughter meet but do not recognize each other
Apart from anything else, the consumption of those spirit stones alone made them feel distressed.
Xiao Ying naturally considered this matter.
If you are in the world of immortal cultivation, you can directly collect the spirit stones.
But the monks here are short of spirit stones and will definitely not use them for this, so they can only accept gold and silver.
"The charge will be between one hundred and one thousand taels, depending on the distance."
The price is very high, which basically prevents ordinary people from using it.
But there is no other way because we really can't afford it.
For ordinary people, Xiao Ying still thinks of transportation such as trains and buses.
Perhaps it would be possible to invent a means of transportation that uses spirit stones, so that the speed and price would be somewhere in between the two.
Who says that cultivation and technology cannot be combined?
"I am responsible for building all the teleportation arrays, but the subsequent maintenance requires everyone's support."
She still has a few people she can use, so she can issue a notice to recruit qualified monks to take charge.
This also avoids monopoly by a few major families and gives some opportunities to small and medium-sized families and even individual cultivators.
Yu Ling and others naturally would not object. If this teleportation network could be built, it would benefit everyone.
So everyone discussed this matter for a whole day and finalized all aspects.
As for the location, each state chose a location outside the city to avoid crowds and accidents.
This was a good training opportunity, so Xiao Ying sent Chen Xingyue, Meng Qingying, and some disciples from Xiaoyao Sect and Xia Family out.
These people are mainly responsible for going to various states to discuss site selection with the governors, recruiting monks and contacting small and medium-sized families.
Chen Xingyue and Meng Qingying always act together, and this time is no exception.
The two went to Lingzhou, which was relatively close to Shangjing, but unexpectedly, they met a familiar stranger.
"Please wait a moment, my master will be here soon."
After arriving at the provincial government office and stating his purpose, the servant was immediately terrified and hurried to inform the prefect.
We did not dare to look down on them just because they were young and female.
Chen Xingyue felt a little proud. If she hadn't followed her mother in cultivation, how could she have had such a glorious moment?
Not to mention Meng Qingying, her master is her adoptive parent, and she will only be loyal to her master in this life.
The two waited for a while before they saw a middle-aged man striding towards them with a frightened look on his face.
The first time she saw the man, Chen Xingyue felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.
"Lingzhou Magistrate Chen Ning has met the two immortal masters."
Before she could think about it, she saw the man introduce himself and greet her.
The person who came was Chen Ning, who had been in office for several months.
Because he had Qi Yuping's support, he was doing very well here and was much more carefree than his days in the capital.
He was in charge of everything in Lingzhou, and his power was much greater than that of the previous Langzhong of the Ministry of Revenue.
He even regretted not coming out earlier.
This is the first time someone has come from up here today.
When he heard that they came from the Imperial Master's Mansion, he was so scared that he almost fell to the ground. His first reaction was that his identity had been discovered by Xiao Ying.
However, when he heard that the visitors were just two little girls who looked very gentle, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But he still didn't dare to be careless, so he ran over in a hurry and with a very humble attitude.
"So it's Magistrate Chen. Sir Chen, there's no need to be so polite."
Meng Qingying spoke in a gentle tone, glancing at the other person inconspicuously.
When I saw it, I felt that it looked a little familiar, but I also thought that it might be because I had seen too many people of my own. Maybe I had seen this kind of appearance before and didn’t pay much attention to it.
"The two immortal masters have arrived. Chen Ning is sorry for not welcoming them in person. I hope you will forgive me."
Chen Ning smiled and bowed, then realized that they were really just two little girls. He knew that he had indeed thought too much.
He immediately ordered someone to bring snacks and fruits, and then sat aside to look at the two of them.
When I saw her appearance clearly, I couldn't help but feel emotional.
As expected of an immortal master, she was as pretty as a flower at such a young age, and also exuded an extremely strong aura, which even frightened him.
Especially the younger one, who looked to be about ten or eleven years old, with a cold and arrogant expression, which was actually a little scary.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the girl looked familiar, but he was sure he had never seen her before.
"I wonder what important matter has brought the two immortal masters to visit so suddenly?"
Meng Qingying didn't waste any words with him and said directly: "We are here on the orders of the Grand Master."
"The Imperial Master wishes to build a teleportation array in Lingzhou Prefecture City and requires Master Chen's cooperation in selecting a site."
"These are the specific requirements. Please review them, Lord Chen."
After saying that, he placed a booklet on the table. The servant immediately stepped forward, took it with both hands, and handed it to Chen Ning.
Chen Ning was in shock. Xiao Ying was actually planning to build a teleportation array in Lingzhou City. What was she planning to do?
Although after the auction, the practice can be considered semi-public.
But for ordinary people like him, it is still very mysterious.
I have only heard of things like teleportation arrays. It is said that only large immortal cultivation families like the Yu family have them.
Xiao Ying wants to establish it with great fanfare, isn't he afraid of causing trouble?
But he had no way of knowing too much and could only suppress his doubts in his heart.
"So it's the order from the Grand Master, and I shall obey."
He smiled pleasantly and began to look at the booklet.
Upon seeing this, he was stunned on the spot. Xiao Ying actually wanted to build teleportation arrays in all the prefectures of Yue Kingdom, and his Lingzhou was not the only one!
This move is too big, and the five major families actually sit back and watch?
However, if this thing is really built, it will be convenient to travel in the future, and you won’t have to travel long distances to go back to Beijing.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become interested, showing a bit of curiosity and anticipation.
He was quite familiar with the inside and outside of Lingzhou City. After reading the booklet, he asked someone to bring a map of Lingzhou and circled several places on it.
"Masters, these locations are very suitable for building teleportation arrays. When can they be built?"
Meng Qingying gave him a blank look and said, "Don't ask about things that are not your business."
"Yes, yes, I overstepped my bounds."
Chen Ning felt a chill down his spine, his hair standing on end at that glare.
"We will survey these areas. Please be prepared at all times. Remember, do not leak anything."
"Yes, I know."
Meng Qingying then withdrew her gaze and left with Chen Xingyue taking the map.
As soon as he walked out of the government office, Chen Xingyue asked questions in confusion.
"Sister Meng, do you think that person looks familiar? I feel like I've seen him somewhere."
