Chapter 394 Feng Yuanyi (Fat Chapter)
"It's understandable that the price is higher after the improvement, but will your Taiyin Sect not make the lower-priced models now? And the ones without tracking functions will be even cheaper, right? We at Fu Lu Shou are waiting to purchase them in large quantities for a long time!"
The manager of the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce was so anxious that his face turned red: "Last time, that fellow Daoist Baili from your sect said that we can give you a discount for long-term orders!"
Elder Lu Ying was a little annoyed that he hadn't coordinated his testimony with Fang Xianyu, and quickly covered it up by saying, "Ahem... Daoist friend, don't worry. There are discounts. There are differences between the retail price and the wholesale price, that's for sure. But we have to wait until our production line is built before we can talk about this. A conservative estimate is that it will take at least two months. Even if I guarantee you something now, it won't be accurate!"
The manager was quite disappointed: "Alas! It will take another two months!"
This pulling and tugging made Feng Yuanyi, who was standing by, become more cautious.
The Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce is different from ordinary monastic sects. Although it is nominally backed by three "immortal kings" and the corresponding star positions are under the jurisdiction of the God of Water, it is not actually under the jurisdiction of the God of Water, and its status is quite high. It is extremely rare that it does not rely too much on offerings from mortals.
Compared to other gods who always try every means to make mortals offer sacrifices to their positions, the three gods of fortune, wealth and longevity completely ignore this and even treat it with hostility - I won't accept your offerings, nor will I protect you. Even if there is something wrong with your sect and they don't like it, they may even strike you with a few thunderbolts to prevent you from offering sacrifices.
But this does not mean that worshipping such arrogant Three Stars of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness is useless. On the contrary, it is more like a "show of goodwill".
Because the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce is almost the most important force connecting all the cultivator sects in the entire Guixu Realm, any sect that wants to conduct long-term and stable business dealings will be courteous and kind to the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce in order to exchange materials and resources.
Of course, there will always be people who want to get a piece of the pie when there is such a huge benefit. Therefore, the business alliances and chambers of commerce jointly established by various sects have sprung up for a while, but no matter in terms of military strength or economic strength, they are difficult to compete with the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce. In fact, unless they are attacked, Fu Lu Shou will not pay much attention to them - because only Fu Lu Shou's merchant ships can really reach almost every corner of the Ten Continents and Three Islands, even Kunlun Hill surrounded by thunder and Quanxian King City deep in the sea.
The human race, which has lost some historical records, does not know about it, but both the dragon clan of Kunlun Hill and the Quanxian clan, which has rich and rigorous historical records, have recorded that the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce was a force that existed in ancient times. At that time, they even had long-term exchanges among the various tribes in ancient times, so they naturally trusted Fu Lu Shou more than other human cultivators. This is also one of the main reasons why the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce is confident that it can monopolize the largest-scale commercial activities in the entire Guixu Realm.
Therefore, when Feng Yuanyi saw that the manager from the Fu Lu Shou Chamber of Commerce, who had been in contact with various sects and ethnic forces for many years and had extraordinary knowledge, praised this "rocket launcher" so much, he thought that this thing must be more useful than he thought.
Thinking of this, he asked evasively, "Although this thing is incredibly powerful, it looks easy to dodge. If you really use it, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of damage, right?"
Elder Lu Ying understood what was meant by this and immediately smiled and explained, "The reason why we call this 'rocket launcher' 'arms' instead of magic weapons is because it can only play its greatest advantage when used as a group. If it is only used in a battle, then it has too many shortcomings!"
"I'd like to hear more about it."
"For example, when fighting in the wild, whether we encounter the Nine Nether Demon or some evil demons, the collective army can bombard the threat with firepower. Even if it is a great demon with thousands of years of cultivation, or a Nine Nether Demon that has become a true demon, a dozen rocket launchers will not be able to withstand it. Even if a dozen rockets are not enough, dozens or hundreds of rockets should be enough, right? The power of technology is to help us reduce the consumption and loss of manpower!"
Elder Lu Ying talked freely, "Let's talk about fellow Taoist Fu Lu Shou. They need 'rocket launchers' because they are easy to operate and store. Even if they encounter some strange beasts during their voyage at sea, they don't have to fight them in person. They just need to fire a few shots. Even if they can't kill them, they can repel them! A few thousand spirit stones in exchange for a significant reduction in casualties and the probability of injury, this deal is a great bargain!
"Of course, for some small sects, it is a bit of confidence - the confidence to resist when being bullied by other forces. If you dare to come, I can gather people to bombard you. In terms of the flexibility of pursuit, it has obvious shortcomings, but as a deterrent force, it is completely sufficient!"
"That makes sense."
Feng Yuanyi nodded frequently, and finally understood why the Taiyin Sect's "military exercise" actually let a group of disciples with varying levels of cultivation move together - he didn't understand what this method meant at first! At most, he felt that it was quite imposing and had a rigorous and solemn atmosphere, but he didn't think too much about it. Now, after hearing these words, and thinking about the scene of so many people launching "rocket launchers" together, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
However, precisely because he finally understood what the so-called "military force" of the Taiyin Sect was, he felt a little disappointed.
Outsiders may not know the details, but he knows it very well.
Some time ago, Immortal Lord Liquan trapped and killed Immortal Piaomiao. Outsiders only knew that both of them died, but they didn’t know that the entire Piaomiao Immortal Sect was split because of this!
The Piaomiao Golden Immortal did not die completely. Instead, his spirit and soul hid in the bodies of several elders of the Piaomiao Immortal Sect, and used this to control several elders and some disciples of the Piaomiao Immortal Sect to follow him.
The remaining part of the Piaomiao Immortal Sect was the diehards of Liquan Immortal Lord. Although Liquan Immortal Lord was dead, his bunch of fat and thin Taoist companions and some of his children who were used as spare containers were mortal enemies of Piaomiao Golden Immortal and would never surrender. So they gathered a group of people who were also afraid of Piaomiao Golden Immortal's revenge, and were trying every means to take advantage of Piaomiao Golden Immortal's illness and kill her!
As for Feng Yuanyi himself...
In the words of the Blue Planet, he is actually a standard double agent!
He first helped in trapping and killing Piaomiao Jinxian, but seeing that the situation was not good, he decisively switched to Piaomiao Jinxian's side, and pretended to be banished, but in fact he received a secret order from the elders - to find the Douxuan Treasure Mirror!
That's right! For the Piaomiao Golden Immortal, physical damage is a small matter, but the soul is injured! In order to nourish the soul, he can only search for elixirs to nourish the soul while asking for news about the Douxuan Treasure Mirror.
As for the former, because her cultivation level as a Piaomiao Golden Immortal was too high, the effects of the medicines available on the market were very limited for her, so she placed her hopes on the latter, wanting to nourish her soul through the Douxuan Treasure Mirror - after all, everyone knew that the Douxuan Treasure Mirror could nourish the soul.
The reason why they didn't dare to search in a high-profile manner was that they were worried that the Penglai Sect would take advantage of the situation.
Therefore, during this period of time, she has been promoting that she is dead, but in fact, the immortals who can tell that she is still alive. It is difficult to distinguish the true from the false, so she simply does not take the risk of targeting the Piaomiao Immortal Sect to avoid getting into trouble.
However, although Feng Yuanyi was tasked with finding the Dou Xuan Treasure Mirror and had also heard about the dispute between the Tai Yin Sect and the Dou Xuan Treasure Mirror, and had come here specifically as if he was really working hard, he actually had no intention of working for Piao Miao Jin Xian at all.
Because although the name of Piaomiao Xianzong sounds related to Piaomiao Jinxian, it was actually developed and grown by Piaomiao Jinxian into a well-known first-class sect in the Ten Continents and Three Islands. However, over the years, the person responsible for maintaining the sect has always been the old leader, Liquan Xianjun.
Liquan Immortal Lord is a kind person who smiles at everyone. He also maintains the order of the entire Piaomiao Immortal Sect by himself. It can be said that the fact that Piaomiao Immortal Sect has many disciples and a relatively relaxed and friendly cultivation environment is all maintained by Liquan Immortal Lord's hard work. If there is really a black spot, it is only his large "harem" and his son who always has a similar personality and always gets into trouble...
But when the inside story that Liquan Immortal Lord had been oppressed for many years and even his own children were used as vessels was revealed some time ago, everyone felt sympathy for him, and even felt very angry towards Piaomiao Golden Immortal, who was not familiar with many disciples of Piaomiao Immortal Sect.
Unfortunately, in the face of absolute strength, neither sympathy nor anger produced good results.
The final fact is that Liquan Immortal Lord is really dead, while Piaomiao Golden Immortal is still alive and has recruited more senior disciples and elders in the sect. Even the reason why Feng Yuanyi surrendered is because he felt that the orphans of Liquan Immortal Lord have little chance of winning against Piaomiao Golden Immortal...
But it doesn’t matter. No matter who wins or loses, it is none of his business as a small “manager”!
He is just a small manager, how can he compete with a powerful sect like Taiyin Sect?
So, it is reasonable that I cannot get the Douxuan Treasure Mirror, right?
Thinking of this, Feng Yuanyi said, "I didn't expect your sect to have made so many achievements in this field. It really gave me a lot of insights! I just don't know when Sect Master Fang will be free. I would like to pay a private visit to him."
Elder Lu Ying thought that this manager from Piao Miao Xian Zong was just like the people from the big sects, arrogant and looked down on the status of Tai Yin Zong. He insisted on discussing matters with the sect master, so he deliberately brought up the history of the Tai Yin Zong and the Quan Xian Clan and the Dragon Clan to explain: "I dare not... It is really unfortunate these days. Sect Master Fang is discussing important matters with Kunlun Hill and Quan Xian King City. I will go and ask later. If there is a chance, I will arrange a meeting for you as soon as possible."
Unexpectedly, although Elder Lu Ying misunderstood Feng Yuanyi, these words really surprised him -
"Kunlun Qiu? An envoy from Kunlun Qiu is also here to watch the ceremony? Could it be that Elder Lu is talking about the Jiaolong Clan?"
