Chapter 149
Lin Qinghen was quite calm, so he only replied with three words, but the Yin family members became less calm when they heard it.
"They are going too far!" Yin Hengxie got angry and slammed the table. "Have they discussed this with our Yin family from beginning to end? I'm afraid they don't take us seriously!"
All the Yin family members standing in the ancestral hall looked unhappy and indignant, as if they couldn't wait to go out and skin each other.
The Yin family is no longer the Yin family of the past!
Fu Qingping didn't look angry, but rather he looked very interested. He hadn't left Beizhou in the past twelve years and almost forgot what the situation was like outside.
The Haihun City Chamber of Commerce was originally okay in Beizhou, but it was a bit shameless to really compete for the position of this aristocratic family. But this time, if he goes out with the Yin family, he will have a chance.
You have to go out and see the world, right?
People from the so-called "first-rate forces" have always been like this. Lin Qinghen has experienced a lot and is used to it.
There was nothing surprising about Su Ye Xian Shan's actions. The only surprising thing was that he specifically mentioned himself and Jiu Xiao. I don't know what his intention was.
But there are times when you are angry or confused, so you might as well take advantage of these six months to improve the Yin family.
He had originally wanted to take things step by step in Beizhou, without rushing, but now many things have come at once, plus there's the matter of Shen Luoying, and the matter of the alliance's leadership change waiting outside, so he has no choice but to hurry up.
"It's time for us to get out," Lin Qinghen sighed, "If we don't show up, others will step on our heads."
Of course, before going out, we must first unify the Northern Province. In order to fight against external enemies, we must first stabilize the country and ensure that there are no worries.
The previous foundation has been laid solidly enough. The resources contributed by a relic are enough for a family to restore its prosperity or move to a higher level. What's more, this is a relic that is enclosed and other states outside do not know about it and cannot steal it.
The Yin family is the biggest beneficiary, and now it has attracted a large number of people, growing rapidly in a short period of time.
The four mercenary groups that had betrayed and then chosen to go back on their word were still making trouble, but there was no gain. Several Heavenly Ranks were also stopped by Fu Qingping and his men, and they could not move, and could not get close to the ruins.
Wang Yulin was preoccupied with his own affairs and was still in shock over Chen Lianyan's death. In recent days, news had come in that some of his former supporters had risen up in rebellion, uniting with some selfish people in the academy to grab things and positions, making a mess of the academy.
In comparison, everything is stable in the City of Tears.
When the fifteen-day deadline was up, the ruins were closed on time, and the entrance still did not disappear. Everyone made a lot of money, and their faith in the Yin family became even stronger.
Just like Ye Rumei, after she heard the exact news about Lin Qinghen from Zhang Fu, she no longer had any second thoughts. Plus, the ruins were really going to be closed on time in fifteen days as the Yin family said, so she dared not have any other thoughts.
What kind of ability does it take to be able to control the ruins?
Although she is a fence-sitter, she knows she cannot move once she finds enough benefits. Besides, given the current situation, where else can she go in Beizhou except here?
The Yin family is the best.
This was her idea, and so were the mercenary groups that had just merged.
The Yin family was coming with great force, and since they had decided to surrender, there was no turning back. A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in, and the subsequent actions of the Yin family made them feel that they had made the right choice. Otherwise, not to mention any benefits, they might even lose their lives.
Today's Yin family is obviously much more fierce and ruthless.
This round of ruins ended temporarily. They sorted out the resources they had obtained, and after a few days, they showed their claws and targeted the remaining disobedient mercenary groups.
In the spiritual world, one of the ways to enhance cohesion is to go out and fight, and make good use of the people who have just been gathered. There is no need for Yin Hengxie to show up. He will guard the Yin family and allocate resources to stabilize the internal situation. Yin Jiuxiao will bring Ye Rumei with him, as well as a few people from Haihun City. Anyway, these people will be wasted if not used.
There is something special about Yin Jiuxiao's training method. Those who die in his hands can have some of their strength absorbed by him, so the more he fights, the stronger they become. At his current level, killing Heavenly Rank enemies is the most effective. After each fight, his improvement is obvious.
Compared with the situation in his previous life when he fought alone and slowly built up his power, Yin Jiuxiao's growth rate is even more incredible now that he has a large family to help him.
His battle awareness is unique in the world. Last time he was only assisting Yin Hengxie, and many people could not see it. But this time it is his turn to take the initiative, and those who face him will only feel more frightened.
Even a three-star heavenly rank cultivator who was a cut above him would only find it increasingly difficult to fight Yin Jiuxiao, and in the end could only stare with wide eyes as he was killed by his sword.
This violent way of subjugation was similar to how he treated the wolf clans at the time, involving both force and scheming.
There are always deputies in a large mercenary group, so it is impossible for them to be completely without ambition. Moreover, the Wolf Clan had already made the situation of these people very clear some time ago. Yin Jiuxiao knew exactly who they were and who could be used. Heavenly Ranks were rare, so there was no need to kill them all. Those who could be used should be used.
Get rid of the disobedient leader of the mercenary group, use coercion and inducement to support the newcomer to take the position, and after quickly occupying the group, split up some of the closely connected people in the mercenary group and bring them under the Yin Family, Haihun City, Lingguan or the other four mercenary groups that have reached cooperation, to prevent them from forming a group again and establishing a new center.
Not to mention the mercenary group, even the few Heavenly Ranks who were imprisoned in the private prison that Wang Yulin left behind last time could be mobilized.
They were already very disappointed with the academy, and after hearing the news outside, they became even more shaken. In addition, Ru Mei and Zhang Fu persuaded them again and again, and they were convinced and quickly placed in different places by Yin Jiuxiao.
The Yin family is growing too fast, and many people can be used, but they cannot be included in the core at the first time. This method, which is similar to feudalization, can achieve stability the fastest.
At the same time, by keeping a firm hold on the high-level Heaven-Rank and Earth-Rank stars, using intimidation and inducement, it can also prevent them from having selfish motives to a certain extent.
Wang Yulin actually had the ability to do this before, but they had not taken care of these mercenary groups for such a long time because the resources of Beizhou were really limited. After the annexation, there were so many people to support. If they could not afford to support any of them, something would go wrong and they would suffer the consequences.
Wang Yulin's original territory was the best preserved after the disaster. The places occupied by mercenary groups were mostly barren, and they looked down on them. But now the Yin family no longer has such worries.
The immortal vines and relics they brought, as well as Lin Qinghen's planting techniques, were enough to solve the subsequent basic resource problems, so they were all included without any burden.
The annexed forces need to be digested, but as long as they continue on this path, it is only a matter of time before a complete integration with the Yin family as the main body is formed in Beizhou.
The Yin family is not only capable of this, they also have a trick up their sleeve after the victory. After annihilating one mercenary group after another, the Alchemist Association and the Equipment Refiner Association followed closely. These two associations quickly set up bases in the occupied territories, providing supplies and resources, and tightly wrapped around this area like a grid, and no one could escape.
Yin Jiuxiao was killing everyone in the front, and Lin Qinghen was not left behind.
After the last level of the ruins, the medicine market was booming again, and more and more alchemists came to the market after hearing the news. It was at this juncture that he announced the establishment of the North State Alchemist Association.
When a non-alchemist with low spiritual power took the position of president, the people of Tear City applauded, although some people were not quite convinced at the beginning.
However, Zhou Xian, Mu Jiu, Zhang Fu and others' endorsement and support, as well as their willingness to accept the position of elder, left many people speechless.
It is very difficult for an alchemist to practice after reaching the Heavenly Rank. Zhang Fu, who is a six-star Heavenly Rank alchemist, is the best in Beizhou. He is experienced and knowledgeable. Even among the Fuxin Miaofa in the Three Mountains, he is ranked among the top in terms of comprehensive strength. His words carry a lot of weight.
Since the Heavenly Rank has acknowledged it, it’s useless for the other minions to object.
After Lin Qinghen took the position of president, the decisions he made were even more swift and decisive. The system he established was completely different from the previous association system, and once it was released, it caused quite a stir among the alchemist community.
Lin Qinghen knew that his spiritual power was not high, but this president did not rely on spiritual power, but on means.
He has different ways of dealing with different alchemists.
After joining the association, yellow-level alchemists can choose a specialized school. The school is connected to the growing planting cooperatives that are springing up everywhere. In fact, it is a subsidiary product of the cooperative. There is no need to worry about the source of materials, and the pills can be quickly converted into cash.
At the same time, yellow-level alchemists who do not join the cooperative and choose other pharmacies will receive a different number of special medicine base rewards for each level test, and also have a fixed share of purchasing medicine bases every quarter.
Retail investors cannot pose much of a threat to the large pharmacies that have already been established under the association, but they are a good subsidy for the yellow-level alchemists who are just starting out and need to burn money and train.
As for the Xuan-level alchemists, they just happened to be in line with the recent reform of prescriptions. New prescriptions came in like snowflakes, and the improved elixirs were directly used on the ruins, which became famous, but many people did not know how to do it, and could not achieve the same effect as the Association Pharmacy and the Butterfly Dream Pharmacy, so they needed guidance and training.
This involves Lin Qinghen’s bigger plan.
There are all places related to alchemists, including Diemeng as the leader, the large-scale Beizhou Pharmacy that has been integrated, as well as the Alchemist Arena, the Pill Trading Center, and the Auction House. He is the person behind the scenes, and these places can be fully connected with the Alchemist Association.
The booth fees or commissions collected in the market or auction house transactions, the number of victories in the arena, the participation in the association's acquisition projects to support the front-line war, and the completion of certain bounty missions, as long as the activities are carried out in these territories under Lin Qinghen's jurisdiction, there will be corresponding alchemist points.
Points can be exchanged for alchemy resources, medicine cauldrons and specialized training courses within the association. The more expensive the courses, the more likely they will be personally instructed by high-level earth-level masters, and there will be improvements and gains every time you take the courses.
The alchemist's record in the Alchemist Association has a greater impact on these places. The pills produced by an experienced alchemist who has been promoted many times and is above the Xuan level are more reliable, and he can get more abundant certificates in the association to prove this. Whether buying and selling pills or switching jobs between pharmacies, he can gain an advantage by doing this.
As for the limited number of Earth-level alchemists, what binds them is more the interests.
Although Lin Qinghen does not have the ability to improve Earth-grade elixirs, the most important thing for alchemy above the Earth-grade is that the materials for refining medicine have become precious. If alchemists at this level want to improve, they must rely on large forces to afford them.
Lin Qinghen holds a large market and has the Yin family behind him, so he is of course the best choice. Moreover, they will receive tasks from time to time while staying in the association, and they can also exchange points for guidance at the Xuan level. The corresponding reward is the materials for refining medicine. It is the best of both worlds and mutually beneficial.
Besides, most of the Earth Ranks follow the Heaven Rank. There are only seven Heaven Rank alchemists that can be selected in Beizhou now. Zhou Xianmu Jiuzhang Fu are the highest in level and are completely devoted to Lin Qinghen. There are two Heaven Rank alchemy elders in the surrendered mercenary group, who are slightly lower in level and dare not complain and are very honest.
There are two more people with Wang Yulin, and their personalities are not very peaceful, but the situation now is that they can’t cause any big trouble.
Therefore, since its establishment, Lin Qinghen's Alchemist Association has been very stable from top to bottom. He also relied on his own abilities to secure his position as the president in a short period of time, leaving no one to complain. The base expanded rapidly in Beizhou and soon got on the right track.
