The age of great voyages

Chapter 104 Xu Yiqing's Partner
This will not take long, because the limit of the seed of life is about one-third of the tree of life in the previous world, which is close to one-half. According to this growth rate, it is estimated that it will not take half. It can grow to that point in just a few months, and at that time, it can start to condense the water of life and condense the miraculous life.

Of course, Lin Chen didn't want to condense the miraculous life for the time being. This would consume too much energy. During the condensing, a large amount of life energy from the tree of life would need to be extracted. During this period, not only the water of life would stop condensing, but the power of the tree of life would also decrease. , if an enemy invades during this period, the defensive power will drop significantly.

According to Lin Chen's plan, the first stage is to gather a limited amount of water of life. In addition to using it as a spare, you can also sell some to make some money to get back your capital.

In his ideal state, after the base passes through the initial construction stage, the output and expenditure of the base should maintain a balance, and the last time should not differ too much.

One drop of water of life is condensed in ten days, three drops a month, that is, three hundred eternal points are recorded in the account, but he must save at least one drop a month, so a month is an income of two hundred eternal points.

Earning [-] eternal points a month is actually quite good. Even in the Far South Territory, under normal circumstances, the income of the entire territory in a month may not be enough for [-] eternal points.

But in the stage of developing private territories, it is really a waste of money, no amount of money is enough, most of them have been losing money, and it usually takes decades or hundreds of years to get back the money.

And the premise of getting back the capital is that the territory can be successfully developed, and there will be no future if it is not successful.

Lin Chen is still very good. At the beginning, he still has an income of [-] points every month. As long as he is stable, he can maintain a balance of income and expenditure in a short time. Moreover, with the help of the tree of life's ability to control the natural climate, the annual The weather can be good every year, no matter what you plant, you can get a good harvest. It is estimated that it will not take a few years to start making money on the basis of maintaining a balance of payments.

As the tree of life continued to grow, its power became larger and larger, and soon began to cause changes in the sky. If it wasn't for the protection of this large hidden magic circle, its powerful life force fluctuations would have spread to other world fragments long ago. At that time, I am afraid that in a few days, a large number of descendants will rush over to snatch it.

So in the past few days, besides observing the growth of the Tree of Life every day, Lin Chen is busy building space beacons, building the teleportation platform as soon as possible, and connecting to the Tower of Eternity one day earlier, then he can feel at ease.

The tree of life is extremely precious and coveted. There is no way, and the hidden magic circle is not invincible, and it will be discovered after a long time, so he must try his best to communicate with the tower of eternity, and to send the information about the tree of life to the sect Report to gain the support of the Zongmen.

As long as there is support from the sect, even if someone covets him, he can only use formal means to take it instead of sending experts to kill him directly.

Hunyuanyi Qizong is one of the sects, even if it ranks at the bottom of the sect, it is also a sect, and its deterrence is sufficient. Even if the ranks of the sect and those high holy places will not come to rob him, this belongs to the sect. The unspoken rules agreed upon among the people are jointly maintained by all the sects in the entire Tower of Eternity, even the Demon Sect is no exception.

After all, without these unspoken rules, even the Holy Land would not be able to block the siege of a large number of sects. If you can’t defeat the strong ones in your Holy Land, you can secretly kill your disciples. If all the disciples of a sect die, that sect will die automatically.

As long as Lin Chen has the support of the sect, he will not be afraid even if the tree of life is exposed. Relying on the little power of the tree of life and the mountain giant king, basically no one at the same level can attack his base.

After working for a few days, the space beacon has not yet been built, but Xu Yiqing came again. This time, besides him, there was also a large flying boat with a length of [-] meters, a large engineering team inside, and the five Hundreds of slaves.

The slaves are all human beings, needless to say their origin, anyway, there will be no sequelae. If there is no accident, if these slaves can survive, they may be the first batch of people in his territory in the future.

Send the two-headed ogre brothers Akron and Akron with a team of sand scorpions to take these slaves to a corner of the base and settle them down first. There is already a large area of ​​simple stone houses with stone bed stoves and other simple facilities inside. Furniture, just wait for them to come, bring your own clothes and you can live there.

The engineering team was led to live on the other side. Lin Chen took a stack of blueprints to find the captain of the engineering team and discussed with several designers how to build a base.

After chatting for a long time, Xu Yiqing also ran over and participated in the discussion with great interest.

After two days, the design drawings were modified no less than ten times, and finally a plan he was satisfied with was discussed and handed over to the engineering team to take full responsibility for the construction of the outer area of ​​the base.

But before he could take a breath when he came back, Xu Yiqing knocked on the door again. When he opened the door, he said angrily:

"If there is nothing important, you can leave it until tomorrow."

Xu Yiqing showed his signature smile, came in and sat down without any reason, and said:
"Don't be angry, of course I'm here to discuss something important."

Lin Chen took a long breath, sat down on the bed and lay down, and said;
"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Xu Yiqing withdrew the smile on his face, and said with a straight face:

"Boss Lin, after observing this period of time, I personally feel that you have the ability, strength, and potential, but you are short of money. I wonder if you are interested in accepting investment from our Shenying Chamber of Commerce?"

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Yiqing with piercing eyes for a long time. It wasn't until he felt a little uncomfortable that he said with a half-smile:

"How did you know that I was short of money?"

Xu Yiqing touched his head to hide his discomfort just now, his face quickly returned to the original state, and asked:

"Boss Lin is rich?"

Lin Chen shrugged and said:

"It's not very rich, but it won't be a problem to establish a base."

"Hahaha"

Xu Yiqing laughed loudly, and kept laughing until Lin Chen frowned, showing displeasure, before saying:
"I wasn't sure at first, but after hearing what you said, I can be sure that you really don't have much money."

Lin Chen didn't answer but just looked at him, Xu Yiqing saw that Lin Chen's expression seemed to be unkind, and the pride on his face suddenly disappeared, he coughed lightly and put away his ready to sell, and said seriously:
"I know that Boss Lin has been preparing for a long time before, and he must have a large amount of eternal points in hand. But your preparation is based on the normal territory construction. It may be enough in normal times, but it is not enough in this world, not enough."

Lin Chen's brows were always furrowed, and when he heard this, he straightened up and listened attentively, and Xu Yiqing didn't make a fool of himself and continued:

"This world is different from the past. More than 600 world fragments of different sizes are connected together. That is to say, there are now a dozen lords who have established bases, dozens of lords who are building bases, and dozens of lords who are preparing to establish bases. The lords of the base are all in the same world, and you need to face not just one or two opponents, but hundreds of opponents, and the competition will definitely be fierce in the future."

"The most direct way to compete with each other is war, and war costs money. If the war lasts, you will spend more money. With normal capital reserves, you will definitely not be able to keep going. Our Condor Chamber of Commerce has strong funds and enough"

"Wait a moment."

Lin Chen suddenly interrupted Xu Yiqing's bragging, and asked:
"Does your Condor Chamber of Commerce support other lords?"

Xu Yiqing was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment and then said:

"Yes, maybe you can listen to my introduction before talking."

Lin Chen stared at him for a while, then lay down again:
"You talk and I listen."

Xu Yiqing sat down and said seriously:

"There is a rule in our Shenying Chamber of Commerce. If the new generation of chamber of commerce wants to become the core group of high-level executives in the future, they must far exceed the outstanding achievements of others. One of the ways is to find an outstanding young man with potential. Everyone has only one chance to invest in it before making a fortune. In the end, within a limited number of years, the winner will be determined by the return on investment. The higher the return on investment, the better my vision. If I can rank among the newcomers of this generation In the future, I may become the core of the new generation and take over part of the power of the Condor Chamber of Commerce after the senior retires."

Lin Chen heard it, it's like a sect running for core disciples or true disciples, the best group is the sect's core disciples or true disciples, who will be the future high-level and even the head of the sect, the same is true for the Xu Yiqing Shenying Chamber of Commerce, just called it no the same.

He didn't say a word to interrupt, listening to Xu Yiqing continue:
"My senior sister Hongyu, the lady we met for the first time, has already selected an investment target in this world. With the help of my senior sister, she has established a firm foothold in this world and established a complete base , there is also a third-tier lair heart, three second-tier lair hearts, and now he has not accumulated much troops because of the short time, but his foundation is too good, and he will be able to organize a certain scale of troops in a few months. According to this trend If we continue, we will be able to organize a large army to sweep away the fragments of the surrounding world in a few years."

Lin Chen twitched his eyebrows when he heard a third-tier lair heart and three second-tier lair hearts, and asked in surprise:
"These lair hearts are all supported by your senior sister?"

Xu Yiqing shook his head:
“All purchased materials must be paid for, but if you are an investment partner, although you will not get a price discount, you can get higher authority and can buy some things that ordinary people cannot buy in this chamber of commerce, such as some rare and powerful items. The Heart of the Lair, the Water of Life, the Power of the World, etc., can only be purchased by investment partners, and only Silver and above members are eligible to purchase them."

"S!"

Lin Chen was amazed, but this authority surprised him.

Regardless of the fact that he is already a black iron VIP member, it may not be his turn to become a silver VIP member in his lifetime. When he got the black iron membership card, he already knew the membership upgrade conditions.

Black iron members need to trade more than [-] eternal points in the Condor Chamber of Commerce, and black iron upgrades to bronze, which directly increases by a hundred times and jumps to [-] eternal points, and bronze upgrades to silver, which instantly increases by a thousand times to [-] million points Eternal points, as for gold VIP members, the conditions are unknown, because the highest conditions displayed on the card are silver members, and there is no condition for upgrading to gold VIP.

But think about it, the silver VIP needs a total transaction volume of [-] million eternal points. According to this increasing rate, God knows how terrifying the next level will be. It must be an astronomical figure that can make people suffer from myocardial infarction.

However, Lin Chen was not attracted by the qualification authority comparable to that of a silver-level VIP member, but asked seriously:

"If I become your investment partner, what will I have to pay?"

Xu Yiqing also answered seriously:

"You don't need to pay anything. The only thing you have to do is to become stronger quickly. The stronger you are, the higher the authority you will get in our chamber of commerce. As your investor, my status in the chamber of commerce will also increase. That is to say, we The two are one, just like you and me."

"Well"

Lin Chen stretched out a finger and pointed at the center of his eyebrows, paused and raised his head and said:
"It shouldn't be that simple. If you really want to cooperate with me, tell me the good and the bad. Don't just talk about the good. I don't believe it's all good and not bad."

Xu Yiqing immediately replied through the interface:
"Normally speaking, there is really no harm. Our chamber of commerce is different from sects. Everything depends on whether you can make money and bring benefits to the chamber of commerce. As our investee, the normal situation is just competition, and there is no clear rule to separate life and death. , but this time it’s different.”

As he spoke, he changed the topic and said:
"It's unfortunate this time. My guide, that is, my master is one of the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce in the Thunder Abyss World Fragment Group. All my senior brothers and sisters have come to the Thunder Abyss World Group, so..."

"So I have a lot of competition this time around?"

Lin Chen's face immediately pulled down, and he said that there is no such good thing in the world, there is no free lunch in the world, let alone the pie, as Xu Yiqing said, if there is really no harm, he will go to those who come to the door It is enough to be an inner disciple. Most of them have excellent talents and have mines in their families. The combination of the two can make money. How can they be used to find a single-handed student like him who is not even a formal disciple.

In fact, he suspects that it is not only in the Leiyuan World Group, even if the competition among the newcomers of the Condor Eagle Chamber of Commerce is fierce at other times, it is even more likely that investors will have a winner. A company that has existed for hundreds of thousands of years The giant chamber of commerce, how could the ceremony of selecting the helm of the chamber of commerce be such a trifling matter, and maybe this is only a part of it, and there may be other challenges besides these, which is entirely possible.

So he said to Xu Yiqing directly:
"I'm sorry, I don't want to get involved in the competition between your chambers of commerce. I'm just an ordinary person. My family business is too small to withstand the turmoil of such a large chamber of commerce. You should find someone else."

But what surprised him was that Xu Yiqing was neither disappointed nor angry, just shook his head with a smile, and said:

"It's too late, and you have no other choice."
