As the forces of Nottingham City mobilized, time passed quickly.
A year and a half later, Xiao Chenyu celebrated his 11th birthday.
According to the timeline, Tang San's martial soul will awaken in a few months.
Of course, before that, there was something even more important waiting for Xiao Chenyu: the plan to conquer Condon City.
A major operation in which the Spirit Hall dispatched five Title Douluos.
Xiao Chenyu has also been busy during this time.
I took some time to fleece Tang San's family again and got my hands on the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone stored at the waterfall.
Of course, it's not accurate to say that it was a scam, since it originally belonged to Ah Yin.
With the addition of the Soul Bone and cultivation, Xiao Chenyu successfully reached the bottleneck of level 40.
For Xiao Chenyu, the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone was crucial, essentially giving him a life-saving skill.
Besides its flight ability, Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone has another skill: Wildfire Cannot Burn Out, Spring Breeze Brings New Life. It is a perfect regeneration skill, capable of even regenerating severed limbs, making it an absolutely divine skill.
Furthermore, if he were in Ah Yin's Blue Silver Domain, his soul power would be replenished at any time, and while his injuries were transferred, his recovery would be almost at its maximum. He would be practically an immortal cockroach and would never die.
He can now proudly say that he has all kinds of support skills, and all he's missing is a damage-dealing skill.
After enjoying a sip of tea from the city lord's mansion, Xiao Chenyu sat comfortably on a recliner.
"You brat, you're having such a leisurely time!"
Lord Xiao glared at him, annoyed. Seeing Xiao Chenyu's leisurely and carefree appearance, he was furious.
In the past, Nottingham was a small city, so he didn't have much to do.
Now that Nottingham City is constantly expanding, he has more than ten times more things to deal with, while Xiao Chenyu, the one who proposed the plan, is usually very free.
“Isn’t it because you, Dad, are taking care of things? If the older generation’s hard work wasn’t for their children and grandchildren to enjoy a good life, then what’s the point of all this hard work?” Xiao Chenyu took a leisurely sip of tea.
"Ha, you're all you can talk nonsense. Take your money and get out of here."
Xiao Chenyu was clearly not buying it. After chuckling twice, he tossed a gold coin prepaid card to Xiao Chenyu.
"How much did you sell this time? This is the first batch sold after stockpiling, so the profits must be pretty good." Xiao Chenyu took the card, his face full of curiosity.
"Your fine honey is of very high quality. It was basically divided up by the Spirit Hall, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and the Zhu family. They gave a total of 100,000 gold soul coins," said City Lord Xiao.
Although it's unclear where Xiao Chenyu got his method for raising bees, the profits over the past year have been quite substantial since he started raising them.
100,000 gold soul coins, that's the amount of tax revenue Notting City used to collect over several years.
However, in today's context, it's just so-so for Nottingham.
The expansion process cost nearly ten million gold soul coins, with the expenses for Notting Advanced Academy alone amounting to several million.
Fortunately, the Spirit Hall helped build the mimicry system, and because of Qian Renxue's influence, they were able to pay on credit; otherwise, Notting City wouldn't have been able to come up with so much money.
"Approximately how much surplus does Notting City have each year?" Xiao Chenyu asked.
He did know something about the profits from each major project.
But Nottingham City has not only various incomes, but also various expenses, and the total amount is the annual surplus after settlement.
The overall direction was controlled by City Lord Xiao. Among everyone, only City Lord Xiao and Ah Yin were people Xiao Chenyu absolutely trusted.
Even though Qian Renxue left him because of her grandparents and mother, he didn't think that Lord Xiao would stab him in the back.
Over the years, he had completely taken on the role of the young master of the Xiao family, and he was also deeply aware of the feelings that Lord Xiao had for him.
“The surplus is only about 100,000 each year, and the income is more than 4 million, but it has all been invested in the construction of Notting City and debt repayment.” Lord Xiao shook his head and said, “According to the construction plan in recent years, it will take another 3-5 years to reap a large amount of gold soul coins.”
Although the money invested in the construction of Nottingham City can eventually be recovered.
But both Lord Xiao and Xiao Chenyu knew that this would take a considerable amount of time.
To put it bluntly, the current cost of living in Notting City is not only inferior to that of Tiandou City, but it's also somewhat difficult to compare with that of Shenfeng City.
In recent years, there have been quite a few Soul Masters in Notting City, but most of them are below the Soul Venerable level, and their spending power is far less than that of high-level Soul Masters.
The main reason is that Notting City doesn't have enough jobs for high-level Soul Masters, so naturally, those high-level Soul Masters are unwilling to come.
The only place that recruits advanced Soul Masters is Notting Academy, but the number of advanced Soul Masters needed is pitifully small.
Xiao Chenyu did want to spend money to support some Soul Douluo-level talents, but unless he revealed the name of the Spirit Hall, the attraction to those people would be very limited.
"Take it slow, we still have plenty of time. Besides, this operation presents an opportunity." Xiao Chenyu shook his head.
"Are you trying to use this operation to promote yourself?" Lord Xiao asked, frowning.
Xiao Chenyu smiled and said, "Tian Dou City is too crowded. Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile are all crammed in there, along with the royal family and various nobles. If there is a better option at this time, there will always be smart people who will take action."
"A smart person? The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex isn't that smart, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile is too smart." City Lord Xiao frowned.
He wouldn’t normally have had access to these forces, but in recent years, Notting City’s status has risen, and as the lord of Notting City, he has naturally come into contact with many people in the upper echelons.
Judging from his impressions, these two of the three sects left him with a very bad impression.
One was so reckless as to be almost foolish, the other was so clever as to overthink.
"It's just an experiment anyway, we won't lose anything," Xiao Chenyu said nonchalantly.
