Chapter 159 Human Trafficking Plan
"So," Baili Shuang said with a smile, "one person's ascension is not called ascension, and one person's enlightenment is not called enlightenment. Now that I have escaped from the suffering of the mortal world, I naturally want to help others."
Upon hearing this, the players began to laugh again.
"Oops, I seem to have been dyed red in the game!"
"Why, you are yellow?"
"Minions?"
"Is this plot correct? It's unnecessary, right? I'm quitting the game!"
"If you have the guts, delete your account!"
"It's so funny. As a family of flower growers, the most basic collective mission and dignity recognition actually makes you so stressed?"
"It's none of my business! I'm just an ordinary person!"
"Is it possible that, precisely because we are ordinary people, we should uphold this belief? Because only in this way can ordinary people like us live with more dignity, okay!"
"No, my last name is Liu, and my ancestors were very rich!"
"Wake up, the Qing Dynasty has fallen, and you are still a Han Chinese?"
…
At the same time, Fang Xianyu's "big brother" was still discussing with Lu Ying.
"They won't agree to that."
Fang Xianyu took a deep breath and explained, "Those immortals and cultivators are so-called indifferent to fame and fortune, and do not pursue territory and nominal priorities, but it is only because there is no profit. If it comes to real interests, they are more ruthless than anyone else.
"Now they don't mind us attracting low-level monks and mortals. Instead, they think we have solved a big problem for them - those low-level monks and mortals have to be raised with great care and effort, but they can't bring them any substantial benefits. Even if they are offered incense, it's just better than nothing, but they have to spend a lot of energy to maintain it..."
Fang Xianyu sneered, "Maybe right now, they are still laughing at the Taiyin Sect behind their backs for being unpresentable and only knowing how to curry favor with ordinary people and low-quality cultivators!"
This kind of thing had happened before when she set out to build Zhongzhou City in the first act, so she knew it very well!
"The masses are the main force for social progress," Lu Ying sighed, his tone unusually depressed: "The history of human civilization in Guixu Realm is at least tens of thousands of years, how come they haven't figured out even this little truth!"
“Because the resources are abundant, but survival is difficult!”
Fang Xianyu had actually thought about this question before.
The result of the development of human civilization in Guixu Realm today is quite similar to those "rich" areas in Blue Star Realm.
For example, the famous South Asia region.
The resources are abundant, so people don’t have to farm and won’t go hungry; the environment is harsh, so no matter how careful you are, it is easy to die accidentally.
Diseases and disasters are "super-multiplied" in warm, humid areas with abundant rainfall. It is precisely because of the special climate and environment that a unique religion has developed, which is peaceful and only fantasizes about the afterlife - because struggling is basically useless. You may be able to eat a handful of sticky rice today, but you may have dengue fever at night. If you are not in good health, you will see your grandmother soon.
The Guixu Realm is generally similar.
The unique spiritual energy resources brought extremely rich products. Even the most common fruit trees produced fruits that were much larger than those before breeding in the Blue Star Realm! Not to mention the various grain crops, let alone three harvests a year, if you worship some immortals and use some special methods, it is not a problem to harvest once a month!
Of course, an abundance of resources does not mean that there is no shortage of supplies.
Sugar, salt, oil, cloth, tea, silk, etc. are still luxuries for ordinary people. Just like Southeast Asia in the Blue Star Realm, it is very suitable for growing tea and sugarcane. However, these two things, which were once more valuable than gold and could grow wildly if they were sprinkled there, have failed to make that area prosperous, precisely because the products are too abundant.
The people just get by when they are full, so who would bother to work hard to build a family business? They won't see tomorrow! In towns blessed by a sect, this mentality is less common, and the people will be relatively hardworking.
After all, without the protection of sects and forces, how can ordinary mortals be opponents of wild demons and beasts! "Of course they don't understand this truth, but they know that if we completely smooth the threshold of cultivation, it will damage their short-term interests."
Fang Xianyu's eyes were filled with hatred. "So, some means of concealing the truth are still necessary. Just like in the Chang'an Library, I only opened the cultivation methods and secrets below the Jindan stage. If I also made the cultivation methods and secrets of the Yuanying and Huashen stages public, the sect ceremony would not have been so joyful! "As for the large-scale absorption of mortals, this action is too sensitive and they will not agree."
Lu Ying frowned: "But economic development cannot be separated from a sufficient population, especially a market economy. Only when the economy is active can the Taiyin Sect truly 'live'."
"Then cover it up,"
Fang Xianyu raised the corners of his lips: "We are here to do the business of human trafficking."
…
Half an hour later.
"Human trafficking!?"
When Wang Ergou heard these four words, he was so shocked that his voice changed.
"It's like this. We should adapt to local customs. Although ordinary people are of little use to those cultivators, sects and forces, they are still a kind of 'resource' after all. If we directly attract them to Taiyin Sect with generous conditions, in the logic of Guixu Realm, this is no different from 'robbing'."
Elder Lu Ying patiently explained: "So, we have to 'buy' from them, and we need to have a good excuse. Now we have all the reasons ready. This is a golden opportunity!"
Wang Ergou curiously asked: "What's the reason?"
Lu Ying smiled mysteriously: "Sugarcane plantations and sugar production bases have a huge labor shortage!"
As she spoke, she paused for a moment and continued, "There is a visiting elder in Taiyin Sect, named Zhuxian, but he is a sugarcane spirit. According to the sect leader, he is very advanced and can easily produce countless sugarcanes every year, all of which are spiritual sugarcanes. Oh, the values of spirits and demons are different from those of us humans. After they have achieved success in their cultivation, they basically do not have a very high sense of identity with their own race. Of course, most of them will still retain some instincts, but they will not have the mentality of viewing their own race with human ethical logic. Therefore, letting Zhuxian cultivate sugarcane will not make him feel embarrassed or uncomfortable...
"Well, it may still feel uncomfortable. Sect Leader Fang said that if it consumes too much energy, it may be very tired. He asked us to take time to comfort it and brainwash it..."
Wang Ergou was still very confused: "But where can we sell all this candy? The monks don't consume much of this stuff, so are we going to make money from ordinary mortals? How much money can we make?"
Elder Lu Ying said: "Of course we are not selling it to ordinary people, we are selling it to the Quanxian tribe to make money from the sea!"
