In the Five Elements Sect,
nearly a thousand disciples from the outer sect stood on a dam and cheered, dancing with joy. Lin Jiang stood on a distant hilltop, looking at the nearly 100-meter-high dam, and felt incredible.
This dam is nearly 100 meters high, and the ground is tens of meters thick. Even in the modern civilization of Blue Star, it should be a major project, but a group of immortal cultivators built it in less than a year.
"But think about the power of immortal cultivators, it is understandable."
Lin Jiang then thought again, immortal cultivators do not have all kinds of modern tools, but their methods are still diverse. There are no surveying tools, come, use your spiritual sense, there are no bulldozers, tower cranes, etc., understand the power of immortal cultivators, even the most ordinary female cultivators, with the blessing of spiritual power, can lift a few hundred kilograms of weight like playing.
The mountain is solid and the stone cannot be moved. The flying sword of the Jindan period tried it. With one sword, a mountaintop collapsed.
"Junior brother, I have felt a lot in the past six months. The lower-level disciples are indeed not as good as us in cultivation, but they still have great power. Using this power well is extraordinary,"
Zhang Shuhua said as he stood beside Lin Jiang. In the past six months, he, like Lin Jiang, worked with these lower-level cultivators and had a deeper understanding of them. He admired these people very much.
"The wealth of the Five Elements Sect is largely produced by them,"
Lin Jiang said lightly. They may not be able to produce high-end resources, but the basic resources of the Five Elements Sect are not produced by them, and the masters also started from the bottom.
"Yes, it depends on the results this year. If we get a big harvest this year, this model can be promoted to other places,"
Zhang Shuhua said. Now they don't know whether this model is feasible or not, and how effective it is. If the effect is good, then they will promote it to other places, such as low-level spiritual medicines.
Lin Jiang agreed with this very much. He wanted to build up a reputation for Zhang Wanjing, and build up an absolute reputation among the lower-level disciples. This kind of reputation may not be useful in the short term, but it may not be the case in the long run. There will definitely be people among these lower-level disciples who will stand out.
They don't need to climb to the level of the sect's top level, the middle level will be enough. Then, when Zhang Wanjing wants to do something in the future, he will have a team and someone to execute it. In a sense, he can directly bypass the top level.
"Ahem"
Just as the two were talking, a cough suddenly came from behind. The two immediately turned around and saw an old man standing in front of them.
"Disciple Zhang Shuhua greets the head master"
"Disciple Xiao Yi greets the head master"
Lin Jiang saw Zhang Shuhua salute, and he also saluted immediately. He didn't know the head master, and no one came out at all.
"No need to be polite, no need to make a fuss, I just came to see"
"Yes, head master"
"This dam was built by you"
"My master led all of us to do it, and it took eight months"
Lin Jiang replied immediately, he must highlight Zhang Wanjing.
"Wan Jing, hey..."
"Our plan is not yet complete. We have only completed one dam, and the other dam is only half built. We plan to build three large reservoirs, more than a dozen small and micro ones, and a total of more than 100,000 miles of canals and ditches. It is expected that after completion, the spiritual grain production of the Five Elements Sect will increase by more than 30%, with a total value of no less than 500,000 spiritual stones, and it can be obtained every year. The subsequent maintenance funds only need a little bit."
Lin Jiang said immediately without waiting for the headmaster to sigh. The big leaders of the Five Elements Sect are all here. If you don't report your work quickly, they are still waiting.
"Is it so much?"
The headmaster was also a little surprised. Did he remember that he only gave Zhang Wanjing 100,000 spiritual stones? Can it create so much income, and it is still every year.
"Yes, I can guarantee it."
"What's the use of your promise? I want results."
"Then wait for the master to come back in a few months. Now the spiritual grain has been planted. We will know when we harvest it."
"Haha, that's what you said."
"I said it. If we can't do it by then, the master can punish us both."
Lin Jiang said immediately, and the punishment must also include Zhang Wanjing, so don't run away.
"Okay, I will come to see it in person at that time. Do you have any difficulties now? I can ask the various halls to help."
"It's okay if they don't make trouble, but they still help."
Zhang Shuhua got angry when he heard it. They haven't asked other halls for help in the past few months, but they didn't help one by one, and they also made trouble.
"Hehe, master, don't listen to him. The various halls are still very supportive, but I hope their support will be stronger, such as giving more people and more money..."
Lin Jiang rolled his eyes at Zhang Shuhua. He was ignorant. Why did he complain at this time? He took the opportunity to ask for benefits.
To be honest, they really are short of people. They have no shortage of laborers, but they need professional talents. For example, weapon refiners need to make various tools, but there are few weapon refiners dedicated to serving them. It is too troublesome for them to run around all the time.
"I may not be able to give you spiritual stones, but I will grant you 200,000 sect merit points and give them to Zhang Wanjing. When the time comes, you can ask him to go to the sect to issue tasks if you need any people or things." "
Thank you, Sect Master
." "Well, you continue."
The Sect Master nodded, then turned and left, disappearing in front of the two people in three or two steps.
"See, learning to deal with people, different people have different ways, isn't this getting the benefits?"
Lin Jiang said to Zhang Shuhua. In the past few months, he has been getting along with thousands of outer disciples and menial disciples, and he will not be so cold, but it is not enough.
Lin Jiang's words made Zhang Shuhua autistic. Are there so many things in this?
·······
"Most of the first phase of the goal has been completed. When the other dams are built, it will be completed. By then, the ditches and canals will be simple."
In the evening, Zhang Wanjing took Lin Jiang and Zhang Shuhua to see the newly built dam. He was very satisfied and very confident about the next plan.
"Master, how is the promotion of farming tools going?"
Lin Jiang said. Dams and canals will consume most of their funds, and there is very little money left. Even if the head of the sect specially approves 200,000 merit points, it is not enough.
"It is difficult to promote wooden kites and farming vehicles. Ordinary disciples only grow one or two hundred acres of land, and most of them are transitional. They have never thought about farming for a lifetime. They are reluctant to spend money to buy these. Even if they buy them, it will be a waste."
Zhang Wanjing shook his head. No one at the bottom of the sect is willing to farm for a lifetime. Even if they have no ability, they want to improve themselves better. If they can't refine pills, they can draw talismans. If they can't draw talismans, they can refine tools. If they can't do it, they can learn formations. Even being a real spiritual plant husband to grow spiritual medicine is better than farming.
Lin Jiang has realized this result. The disciples of the Five Elements Sect rent low-level spiritual fields and can't grow much. Isn't this a small peasant economy? One of the characteristics of a small peasant economy is insufficient funds. " The problem of
spiritual grain seeds is actually very easy to solve. As long as there is a good harvest after changing to new seeds this year, people will buy them next year, provided that the price is not too expensive, or they can be directly promoted through the sect. As for these farming tools and the like, I also have ways to solve them, as long as the master is willing to spend time to do it." "Tell me your method." "We will invest to build a batch of tools, and then ask people to use them to plow the fields and spread fertilizer for the disciples, but we are not for profit, so the price can be set very low, as long as there is a little profit." "The Zheng family has a good relationship with you, aren't you taking away their jobs?" "No, the first batch of people will use those people from the Zheng family. The profit is thin, but there are more customers, so we can still make a little money. We will compensate them from other places. There are many ways, and if it really takes away their jobs, we have to do it," Lin Jiang said. Don't blame him for being cruel and wanting to smash people's jobs, but he must give Zhang Wanjing advice and gain reputation through various means. "Just do as you say," Zhang Wanjing thought about it. This is the only way to solve the problem. No other way has been found for the time being. "Master, can I ask you when you will break through to the Nascent Soul stage?" "I don't know." "Does the sect have any treasures for Nascent Soul formation?" "Yes, but it's not my turn," Zhang Wanjing said. He had offended so many Nascent Soul elders, how could he possibly get such a treasure? "Can I buy it outside?" " What do you think?" "Probably not," Lin Jiang hesitated. He knew that the sect had been monopolizing strategic elixirs, such as foundation-building elixirs and five-element golden fruit elixirs. Foundation-building elixirs could be released to give some benefits to casual cultivators, but Nascent Soul elixirs would never be released. No sect would dislike too many Nascent Soul cultivators, and the same was true for other sects. They had a tacit understanding in this regard, just like the five big gangsters, who actually tacitly monopolized certain technologies. "Even if a certain treasure appeared on the market, it would definitely fall into the hands of a few large sects, not small and medium-sized sects," Zhang Wanjing said. In terms of financial resources and background, casual cultivators could not compare with these large sects, and small and medium-sized sects could not compare. "Then we can only go to the wilderness to look for opportunities?" "Almost." "Then there is really nothing I can do," Lin Jiang said. If he could buy it, he could still pay some money. If he couldn't buy it, he couldn't go to the wilderness either. It's not a dangerous thing for us to do. "I'll do it myself. You don't need to help with the infant formation." Zhang Wanjing shook his head. His disciple was too ambitious. He was just building a foundation, but he wanted to interfere with the infant formation?
