Chapter 433 Black-hearted Capitalist
Of course, building a Star Palace requires more than just people.
Location, resources, mentor, and skills are all essential.
Chen Zhixing, who has the support of the Ziwei Chen family, does not need to build a new power from scratch. With the help of his family, he only needs to create the skills and wait for them to bear fruit. No wonder! "What the hell are you talking about? The candidate for this position has not been decided yet, and there have been 16 murders in the city this month?"
"This is only what was reported. Because it involves other families, the people below dare not conceal it. And those cultivators with ordinary backgrounds, even if they are dead, the news will not be delivered to you." Chen Zhaosheng said coldly with a bad look on his face.
Well, he was hung upside down in front of the Hall of Eternal Life the night before yesterday, so it’s understandable that he was in a bad mood.
Chen Zhixing didn't care about his cousin's temper. He just felt a toothache after hearing the news, but he had already thought about how much trouble the whole world would have in the future in order to seize the position of Xinggong sect member.
"It's very troublesome. If we let them fight like this, those noble families whose members have died will not cause trouble for us, right?"
"Probably not in the short term."
"Oh, that's good."
"Hmm? Wait a minute! You don't intend to let them fight each other in such a disorderly manner?" Chen Zhaosheng reacted and looked at Chen Zhixing as if he was looking at a scumbag.
Chen Zhixing shrugged: "Isn't this a very good idea? Choose a place, send everyone in, and then the remaining 900 people will be the future disciples of Xinggong. In this way, the people selected will have their own character, cultivation, luck, and family background, and will be more likely to become talents in the future."
"You're talking nonsense! What about loyalty? What about our friendship with other families? How are we going to take care of our own family members? And what if they cause trouble in the Star Palace?"
"You ask me?"
"Um?"
"If you want to go, go ahead. If you want rules, then make the rules. If I need to decide and solve everything, then how would I have the time to practice?" Chen Zhixing said irresponsibly.
Chen Zhaosheng: “.”
Chen Zhaosheng asked in disbelief, "So, you don't intend to interfere in the affairs of the Xing Palace at all?"
"Why not? Look, this is the Star Palace in my plan. Your task is to build it in the shortest possible time. You can handle the rest on your own."
As he spoke, Chen Zhixing handed over a jade mirror.
After Chen Zhaosheng took it, he examined it.
Well.
To be precise, after a few seconds he raised his head and looked at Chen Zhixing with a look that said "Are you going crazy?"
"Tiansheng Palace?"
"Xinggong."
"This is the Tiansheng Palace! Do you think that I, a direct disciple of the Tiansheng Palace, would not recognize the treasure of this holy land?" This time, Chen Zhaosheng was really going crazy.
He knew that Chen Zhixing was a swindler, but he didn't expect him to be so swindler. Chen Zhaosheng could understand that he wanted the 'Tiansheng Palace', the most precious treasure in the Tianxuan Realm, because he wanted it too. But who could have thought that Chen Zhixing actually wanted to completely transform the Xing Palace to look like the Tiansheng Palace?
The key is that in the future, three hundred disciples from the Tiansheng Palace will join the Xing Palace every ten years!
Isn’t it a bit too much to blatantly plagiarize under someone else’s nose?
Then, "Where is this excessive? No, it's not excessive. From now on, the natal magic weapon of all Xinggong disciples will be uniformly set to the Xinggong's certain palace. Well, this is the Ziweiheng 286 main palace map that I marked. From now on, Xinggong will set such a rule. The necessary condition for becoming a core disciple is that the natal magic weapon must be in the same palace."
I have to say, it’s a very satisfying thing to create rules from scratch.
This is blatantly making profits for oneself, and what they are seeking is the benefits that will flow to them continuously for tens of millions of years in the future. To obtain these benefits, all they need is a short sentence.
As for whether this rule set by Chen Zhixing would become a reason for countless disciples of the Star Palace to curse him, the founder of the sect, in the endless years to come, it was not something Chen Zhixing needed to care about.
"Are the people on the list on this picture the officials of Ziwei Star that you selected?"
After seeing this picture, Chen Zhaosheng was no longer angry.
He realized that Chen Zhixing's previous words were meant to anger him, but the actual plan had already been decided.
Ziwei Sanheng.
Sifang Taoist Palace.
Among them, 286 star officials are listed, which are the core of the Star Palace.
There are also 1,178 inner gates, commanded by 286 star officials.
The rest of the disciples are only registered as such and are not included in the true teachings!
Now that the specific framework has been listed, the rest is what Chen Zhaosheng needs to focus on, and these things that require him to worry about are his main jobs.
Distribution of benefits.
"There are thirty-nine Ziwei star officials, twenty Taiwei officials, nineteen Tianshi officials, forty-eight Canglao officials, seventy-six Xuanwu officials, fifty-six Baihu officials, and forty-six Zhuque officials. Do we also have to choose from these two hundred and eighty-six star palaces?"
"Of course it is necessary. Ziwei, Taiwei and Tianshi are the three upper palaces, with Ziwei as the most respected and in charge of everything. Taiwei assists in regulation and is the steward of the palace. Tianshi assists in supervising new disciples. The four images are the lower ones, and they are divided into four. Each of them is in charge of a group of disciples under the sect. They can also set up special competitions with the sect. You should be more familiar with these rules of supervising people than I am."
"You mean, from now on, the disciples will be divided into five levels?"
"Ninth level."
"Nine levels? Is that too much?" Chen Zhaosheng thought for a moment and said, "Most of the disciples who can enter the Star Palace are already in the True Self realm. If there are really nine levels, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble."
“The Ziwei star officials are ranked as first class, and the other six palace leaders are ranked as first class.
The Taiwei star official is of the second rank, and his five palace deputies are also of the second rank.
The star official of Tianshi is ranked third, and the officials in charge of the four palaces below him are also ranked third.
The remaining star officials are all fourth-rank."
“Is this the seventh level?”
"Well, the next ones are the inner disciples and the outer disciples. The number of inner disciples is fixed at 1,178, and it will not increase or decrease, corresponding to the Zhoutian constellations. They can have a chance of immortality in the future. The outer disciples practice the basic laws of the star palaces, which can gather starlight and take the place of the inner disciples through sect competitions. As long as they are willing to work hard, everyone has a bright future."
"Is the distribution of the Guided Starlight also arranged in this way?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I spend all this money?"
"If you divide it this way, what will happen if the disciples of Xinggong change in the future?"
"Replacement? What are you thinking about?"
"you mean"
"One person has one job, there is no such thing as a normal replacement of the star official position. Unless one attains immortality in the future and is listed as the Immortal Star Lord, and his gold nature returns to the spirit world after his death, the position of the star official can be inherited by future generations. Otherwise, the position of the star official can only be taken by those who are capable. How can there be a normal replacement!"
This is nonsense. The position of star official is a prerequisite for achieving enlightenment as a star god. Which normal person would give up the opportunity to achieve enlightenment and achieve immortality?
"Lifelong system, no such thing as sect elders?"
"Brother Zhaosheng, rather than saying that the Star Official is a sect, it's better to say that it's a temple that clearly defines the positions of the entire world. There are only so many positions for the Longevity Star Lords, so where would the opportunity to gather the elders come from?"
"Then how should the power and authority of the star officials, the sect's welfare, and the disciples be divided?"
"No authority, no benefits, only the title of a star official. Well, there is no matching practice. If you want something, you either spend resources to buy it at home, or do things for me in exchange for contribution."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
“.”
"Why do you look at me like that? We are the only violent organization in the world. We control more than 1,400 forces with the status of immortality. Everyone who joins here comes for the status of immortality. They all come here to be exploited. What benefits do they want?"
"this"
"Why else do you think I would take over such a mess?"
"But if you do this, won't it cause interference from the three holy places?"
"What are you interfering with? How are you interfering? Who is interfering? Can they replace me, the Zhongtian Ziwei? Even if they become the Changsheng Zhenjun, if nothing unexpected happens, these people will have to beg for food under my hands for at least the next ten thousand years. Who is so stupid as to come and interfere with me?"
".What you said makes sense."
"Um."
"So, shall I proceed with this arrangement?"
"Go ahead. Don't forget my Tiansheng Xinggong!"
“.”
Through what Chen Zhixing said about the layout of the star palace, Chen Zhaosheng roughly understood what kind of existence the so-called "Lord of One Path" was.
It's real power. When practicing under this system, there's not even the idea of resistance.
After becoming a Star Lord, one not only has to collect resources for one's own practice, but even while collecting resources, one needs to continue to provide supplies to the next level, and the next level up, until they converge in front of Chen Zhixing, the Zhongtian Ziwei.
By this calculation, Xinggong is not a sect at all, but just another testing ground for the three holy places.
But, such a joke-like "sect power" can actually attract so many people to join, and in order to join the Star Palace, bloody incidents continue to occur among these people. "The temptation of immortality?"
Thinking of the 1,464 immortal fruit seats clearly displayed in the Star Palace, Chen Zhaosheng's heart could not help but start beating.
Even though they knew that these positions were just carrots tied in front of the donkey, they still couldn't suppress their desire! Everyone knew that this was a trap! Everyone knew that these positions could not be filled at all. Even in the history of the Tianxuan Realm, there were not necessarily a thousand people who had achieved immortality. But after these positions were put on the table, they gave all those who aspired to be immortal an opportunity! And the same opportunity, in the previous era, was the Changsheng Baimai of the Tiansheng Palace! Everyone knew it was a trap, but they had to jump into it.
Because those who fall into the pit really have the opportunity to achieve immortality, and the chance is very high, at least much greater than practicing alone outside.
soon.
A few days later, Chen Zhaosheng received the "Starlight Guidance Method" sent by Chen Zhixing.
From this introductory technique, it can be seen that Chen Zhixing’s intention to exploit is very direct.
To learn this technique, one must go to the 'Star Palace' and set up a 'gravitational platform' to attract starlight. A more direct approach is to follow the 'Starlight Attracting Method', which indicates the subsequent 'Astrological Hall Practice Method' of the Star Palace Gravitational Platform.
There is no good or bad between the two.
The cost of building the former is about one million spirit stones, and each time it is activated, it will cost you spirit power to maintain it. The latter has no upper limit on the cost of building it! The better the materials used, the more starlight you will attract!
What's even more infuriating is that Chen Zhixing also specifically marked that there are position restrictions for using the "Astrology Hall Cultivation Method". Because there are only 1,178 quotas for inner disciples in the Star Palace, it means that the Star Palace can only build 1,178 Star Halls at most, and the first batch of Star Palace inner disciples' quotas, that is, whoever builds the Star Hall will be the first batch of inner disciples! This naked and unconcealed approach really surprised Chen Zhaosheng.
"Can we really recruit people with such rules?"
After pondering it for a whole morning in the Hall of Eternal Life, Chen Zhaosheng finally posted the 'Starlight Guiding Method', which was almost a requirement for recruiting disciples of the Star Palace, outside Ziwei Mountain at noon.
This post also stunned many people.
Then, a scene that surprised Chen Zhaosheng appeared.
Although many people complained that the Ziwei Chen family was too greedy for money, surprisingly few people said that the Chen family's approach was unfair. Some people even began to ask where the "gravitational platform" and "astrological hall" should be built, and what the appropriate ratio of materials should be for building the two. Can they buy them directly from the Chen family? This attitude of coming to the door in the hope of being exploited made Chen Zhaosheng silent for a night.
To be precise, Chen Zhaosheng hardly slept that night. It was not until dawn that he found Chen Zhixing again.
"Zhixing, this is the list of people who are interested in buying the 'Gravity Platform' and 'Astrology Hall' from the family. What do you think we should charge?"
"You still want to ask me this question?" Chen Zhixing looked at him with a playful look.
"What do you mean?" Chen Zhaosheng frowned.
"You can charge these people whatever your family needs to build Ziwei Heng. You can list the total amount of resources that your family needs to invest in the past ten thousand years, and then divide it up one by one. Isn't that the overflow cost of these Astrology Halls?"
“You don’t make money anymore?”
"I made money, but the portion of the Astrology Palace is the portion allocated to the family. On the one hand, since the Astrology Palace has been established, Ziwei Heng naturally needs to be improved quickly. On the other hand, the family has invested resources for three thousand years, and now it is time to get a return."
"So, you are planning to make money from the Star Officials' Mansions? That's right, only those who can become Star Officials in the future will have the resources you can use."
"No, I'm selling land!"
Chen Zhixing said as a matter of course: "If they want to come to my territory as Zhongji Ziwei to practice, they will naturally need to pay me a portion of the practice fee. The more than one thousand astrological halls that will be built in the future will also form part of my astrological palace magic weapon. As for some of them, if they practice to become immortal star monarchs, then we will have more time to spend together in the future. They should not mind investing some money in advance to build a good relationship with me, their immediate superior."
