Not long after Li Yuanba moved into the garrison, Yue Xing sent the accounts over.

This is the past account record of Jieshan City. Since mortals are involved, the account is on paper. In addition, it has been accumulated over many years, so it fills up a small storage bag.

"Leave it here and come back to take it away in an hour!" Li Yuanba waved his hand and instructed Yue Xing.

Yue Xing bowed in response, then turned and left.

However, Yue Xing couldn't help but shake his head in his heart. He didn't believe that Li Yuanba, a Jindan cultivator, could check all the accounts within an hour, let alone find out the problems.

Although the spirit of a Jindan cultivator is strong, everyone has his own expertise. Even the strongest spirit can only increase the speed of analysis and calculation, but it cannot discover the things hidden in the accounts.

Li Yuanba took out an account book, and his mind contacted his original body Li Shiming, borrowing IBMz15.

IBMz15 opened the financial software, and then Li Yuanba used his divine mind to scan the account book, and the transaction data was entered into the financial software one by one.

The divine sense scanned the account book in almost every few breaths, and the account book in the small storage bag was scanned in the time of a cup of tea.

Afterwards, the financial software automatically analyzed the previous accounts and made them clear, and some errors and omissions were also clearly identified.

He suddenly discovered that there were indeed many inaccuracies in the original accounts, involving a considerable amount of resources. However, at the end of the accounts, just two days ago, a resource was recorded in the accounts, filling in all the previous problems.

"It seems there is no need to investigate further!" He understood that this was because the previous elder who guarded the Golden Core used his own resources to balance the accounts. Needless to say, the reason was that Li Yuanba's great-grandmaster Lu was guarding the mountain gate and was not in seclusion, and he also paid special attention to Li Yuanba.

At the same time, he also had a deeper understanding of the interests of Jieshan City. The portion of Jieshan City's revenue allocated to him was enough for him to have an extra third-grade elixir every month.

Don't underestimate a third-grade spiritual medicine. Considering the value of a third-grade spiritual medicine, if it is exchanged for ordinary resources, it will be an extremely huge amount of resources.

This is why Jieshan City is so special. It is the place where the Ten Thousand Mountains exchange resources with the outside world, which is why it can generate such benefits.

He couldn't help but feel grateful to Great Elder Situ. Of course, he also understood that if it weren't for the fact that Patriarch Lu was guarding the mountain gate, it would be difficult for him to get such good benefits.

"Elder Li, the owners of several major shops in the town want to meet you!" An hour later, Deacon Yue Xing walked in and bowed to report.

In fact, these shopkeepers had been here for a while. Deacon Yue Xing knew that Li Yuanba was checking the account books, so he stopped them.

Only when the time was up did he come in to report.

"Take the account book with you, and invite the other shopkeepers in!" Li Yuanba threw the small storage bag over and said. Just as Deacon Yue Xing turned around and took two steps, he continued, "Now that the account has been settled, don't make any more mistakes in the future. I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes!"

Deacon Yue Xing shuddered, his heart filled with horror.

As for the accounts, he was well aware of the problems.

If the previous Jindan Elder had not spent several days carefully checking all the accounts before leaving, and finally paid out of his own pocket to fill the errors and omissions in the accounts, these accounts would have become a problem for the next Elder, Li Yuanba.

As for the errors and omissions in the accounts, it is difficult to say how many were due to the corruption of the previous Jindan elder and how many were due to the tampering of his subordinates.

Deacon Yue Xing, who was slightly hit by Li Yuanba, has made up his mind that nothing can go wrong at the hands of Li Yuanba.

In just one hour, so many accounts were checked clearly. In addition, Li Yuanba had a strong background. Even the previous Jindan elder would rather lose money than anger Li Yuanba because of the accounts. If a small deacon like him committed a crime, there would definitely be no good result.

There were nine shopkeepers coming in. In addition to the shopkeepers of the three major righteous sects, there were also shopkeepers of Senluo Sect's own shops, as well as shopkeepers of some larger forces on both the righteous and evil sides.

Other shop owners of medium power are not qualified to come here.

The old shopkeeper of the Qianhuan Sect's Juchang Shop had a look of doubt in his eyes when he saw Li Yuanba wearing a bronze mask.

Li Yuanba's image is too special, his face is always covered by a mask.

Li Yuanba had been to the righteous sphere of influence before through the channel of Juchang shops. The cultivators have excellent memory and recognized Li Yuanba at a glance when they met again.

However, the old shopkeeper doubted his own memory, because a few years ago, Li Yuanba was only a foundation-building cultivator. How could it be possible that in such a short period of time, he had become a golden elixir cultivator, and an elder of the Senluo Sect, in charge of such an important position as Jieshan City.

Li Yuanba smiled and nodded to the old shopkeeper. This was considered as meeting an acquaintance. This nod and smile immediately made the old shopkeeper understand that he had not recognized the wrong person.

The nine shopkeepers came here to give gifts, which was a gift to congratulate Li Yuanba for defending Jieshan City.

At the same time, he was also trying to build relationships, hoping to do business safely under Li Yuanba's management.

With Li Yuanba's power, if he is slightly dissatisfied, the business of any shop will be affected.

All the monks who are able to be sent to Jieshan City as shopkeepers are calm and mature people.

The shopkeepers came forward one by one to greet him, introduced themselves, and presented gifts.

The whole process did not take long, mainly because the identities of the two parties did not match. The shopkeepers were all Foundation Establishment cultivators with no future, while Li Yuanba was a Golden Core Elder. The gap in their identities made this meeting truly a greeting.

Li Yuanba accepted the gifts and reassured the shopkeepers with words that he would not cause any trouble in Jieshan City.

He does not care about the benefits, but rather the connection between Jieshan City and the forces of righteousness.

"Shopkeeper Xin Shun, please stay for a moment!" Li Yuanba said when the nine shopkeepers left.

Shopkeeper Xin Shun is the shopkeeper of Senluo Sect’s own shop. Li Yuanba is his direct superior, and his appointments and dismissals are decided by his single word.

Shopkeeper Xin Shun stood respectfully, wondering if Li Yuanba had taken a fancy to his position and wanted to replace it with one of his own.

"Shopkeeper Xin Shun, I would like to trade some spiritual objects with them through the channels of my shop. Is that possible?" Li Yuanba asked directly without any intention of hiding his thoughts.

Now he is the biggest man in Jieshan City and holds considerable power. Even the people at the Jieshan checkpoint will give him face, otherwise how can they protect each other?

When Shopkeeper Xin Shun heard that no one wanted to replace him, the uneasiness in his heart disappeared.

"Elder, as long as there are not too many spiritual objects, it will not be a problem. In fact, with some arrangements, some banned spiritual objects can also be traded!" Shopkeeper Xin Shun answered honestly.

Li Yuanba, who had just arrived here, would not know about such things, but someone would tell him after a long time, so Shopkeeper Xin Shun wanted to curry favor with Li Yuanba and did not hide anything.

"Do your best, I'll notify you when there's anything I need!" Li Yuanba waved his hand and said.

Shopkeeper Xin Shun bowed and left.

On the second day after Li Yuanba took over Jieshan City, a benefit belonging to the Jindan elder of Senluo Sect arrived, which made him wonder when Senluo Sect became so efficient.

The elders’ benefits are a little more than before, just a few more servings of third-grade spiritual tea and spiritual fruit, which is enough for three years.

The gifts sent by the nine shopkeepers were all third-grade spiritual objects. They were not particularly precious, but they were also worth a lot.

Since he did not change anything, Jieshan City went through the power transfer peacefully and business activities were not affected at all.

He picked three items from the gifts and turned into a beam of sword light and flew towards the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint.

Outside the Jieshan checkpoint, he cast a sound transmission spell, and soon the formation opened up a passage for him to enter.

"Senior Brother Jiang, Senior Brother Meng, Senior Brother Shi, please forgive me for my intrusion!" As soon as Li Yuanba entered the Jieshan Checkpoint, he saw the three elders guarding the Golden Core coming out to greet him. He took the initiative to step forward and bowed.

Three Jindan elders were assigned to guard the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint. They were all in the middle Jindan realm, and their combat power was among the best among the Jindan cultivators in the sect.

But the three Jindan elders all came out to greet him, which shows how much they value Li Yuanba.

Of course, this was also because Li Yuanba was too generous and came to the door with gifts the day after he took over Jieshan City.

"Junior Brother Li, we can feel more at ease with a swordsman like you around!" Jiang Pu smiled and returned the salute.

Among the three Jindan elders guarding the Jieshan Pass, Jiang Pu has the most seniority and can speak on behalf of the three Jindan elders.

Jiang Pu was not being polite. The original Jindan elder of Jieshan City was transferred away. This was related to the safety of the Jieshan checkpoint, so they had no choice but to take it seriously.

Jiang Pu found out about Li Yuanba's situation through his connections within the sect.

He was extremely dissatisfied when he learned that Li Yuanba was sent to Jieshan City just after he was promoted to the Golden Core and completed a mission.

But after learning about Li Yuanba's performance on Zhenbei Island, especially the few times Li Yuanba took action, showing his control over the formation and strong combat power, Jiang Pu changed his mood.

Especially the Wanjianfeng magic weapon in Li Yuanba's hand, which is equivalent to the combat power of a late Jindan cultivator, not to mention that Li Yuanba is a sword cultivator and is a powerful cultivator.

"Senior Brother Jiang, this is a small gift. I'll need your continued care in the future!" Li Yuanba said as he presented the gift.

"What gifts do you have to bring to our place? Come in quickly!" Jiang Pu invited with a smile. The other two Jindan elders were also very happy.

They were not attracted by the gifts, but by Li Yuanba's attitude.

Li Yuanba chatted with the three Jindan elders for a while. The three Jindan elders were considerate and told him more information about the Jindan realm, which benefited him a lot.

Li Yuanba had entered the Golden Core realm only recently, and Elder Jian had gone into seclusion early on, so without any guidance, he had to figure out how to deal with many situations he encountered during cultivation on his own. With the guidance of three veteran Golden Core elders, his future cultivation went more smoothly.

"Senior Brother Jiang, I have some personal belongings that I would like to bring in and out through the Jieshan checkpoint in the future, so please take care of me!" Li Yuanba saw that the time was almost up, so he switched the topic to the purpose of his trip.

Some things have to be said openly. He is also a Jindan-stage cultivator and knows that as long as he passes through the passage to the checkpoint, any hidden spiritual object will be discovered with the help of the Jindan cultivator's spiritual power and the formation.

Therefore, if you want to smuggle spiritual objects, you might get into trouble in the future if you don’t say hello.

Of course, if Li Yuanba didn't come to say hello, people here would know that the items were his and most likely they would not ask about it. But if he said hello, there would definitely be no trouble.

"Haha, don't worry, Junior Brother. We are guarding the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint, so it is normal for a small amount of spiritual objects to come and go. Some of the cultivation resources we three need are also directly exchanged from there!" Jiang Pu said with a smile.

Jiang Pu actually misunderstood Li Yuanba, thinking that Li Yuanba wanted to save some effort in order to obtain more resources.

The resources of the Shiwan Mountains and the righteous forces are complementary. The price of the resources of the Shiwan Mountains will double when they reach the righteous forces, and the price of the resources of the righteous forces will also double when they reach the Shiwan Mountains.

What is meant here is the formal channels. The checkpoints on both sides of the formal channels will charge fees, the shops on both sides will make profits, and the forces on both sides will collect taxes.

As a result, the selling price of resources after passing the level will naturally increase a lot.

But if we deal with each other privately, there will be fewer fees and the price will be lower.

"In fact, there are some private incomes at the Jieshan Checkpoint. We will tell you even if you don't come!" Meng Sheng on the side interjected.

Li Yuanba couldn't help but feel a little curious and looked at Meng Sheng who was speaking.

"We have private contacts with the opposing Guarding Golden Dan, and there will be some transactions of third-grade spiritual objects that are not conducted through formal channels. The profits are divided equally between the Guarding Golden Dan of both parties, which is almost equivalent to the income level of the guarding mission!" Meng Sheng said with a smile.

If Li Yuanba had not come, the relationship between the two sides would not have become so close so quickly. Although Li Yuanba would not lose out on the benefit, it would be hard to say when.

Maybe it will take a few months, maybe a year or two.

Now that the relationship between the two sides has become closer, Li Yuanba will naturally have a share of the benefits belonging to the Jieshan Checkpoint.

You must know that Jieshan City where Li Yuanba is located is also an important part of this interest chain.

In this way, Li Yuanba had more confidence in future resource exchanges.

If he wants to improve his strength faster, he needs the resources and help from the original body Li Shiming. In the past, if he wanted to get resources and help, he needed to make an appointment with the original body Li Shiming.

But both he and his original body, Li Shiming, have their own troubles.

His dispute with Qianye Temple seemed to have calmed down, but he knew very well that once Qianye Temple made a move, it would be extremely difficult to escape, so he needed to leave the protection of the formation as little as possible.

As for Li Shiming, it was like a curse. He would get into trouble whenever he left the mountain gate, so the Shushan Sect restricted him from leaving the sect.

This temporarily cut off the connection between him and his original body, Li Shiming, and he had the opportunity to reconnect with him only after being transferred to Jieshan City.

When leaving the Jieshan Checkpoint, Li Yuanba made an appointment with the three Jindan elders for their next meeting. The three Jindan elders would also have regular exchanges on cultivation, which was beneficial to the cultivation of Jindan cultivators. They were willing to take Li Yuanba with them, which meant they approved of Li Yuanba joining them.
