Immortal and Demon Cultivation

Everyone in the world knows that gods are good, but they cannot forget their fame.

Where are the generals and ministers of ancient and modern times? The graves are covered with grass.

Everyone knows that gods are good, but gold and silver cannot be forgotten.

In the end, I only regretted that there was not much gathering, and when it was too long, my eyes closed.

Everyone in the world knows that gods are good, but only my wife can never forget them.

I express my gratitude to you on your birthday, but you will go with others after your death.

…

The short, fat old man holding a bamboo pole and cloth curtain looked at Ye Xiaochuan who was secretly discussing with the disciples of Cangyun Sect not far away. He didn't dare to get close, so he watched from a distance and chanted "Good Song" in his mouth.

This catchy and simple song perfectly explains human life. Fame, wealth, and beauty are all illusions. Carpe diem is the king. After death, everything is gone. It becomes a bun covered with weeds outside the city. You can't take away a piece of silver cake, not even your wife after your death. Will be a widow for myself and follow

Others went away happily.

Therefore, only living is the most important thing.

Everyone in the world believes that the most tragic thing is that people are alive but their money is gone. The old storyteller loves money and likes to accumulate wealth. The money he has earned over the years is astronomical. The popular "Monkey King" was written by the old storyteller. It is published and distributed every year in the bookstore opened by an old friend. Can be bought for thousands

Ten thousand copies, the annual royalties alone are enough to feed the people of a state.

But this pudgy old man seems to be always short of money.

Because what he believes in is that when a person dies, the money is not spent.

In the past few hundred years, the old storyteller has spent a huge amount of money. As for where it was spent, only he knows.

Money is a good thing. Although most cultivators don't love money, they can't live without it.

To put it bluntly, both cultivators and ordinary people cannot live without money. Without money, nothing can be done.

Take Cangyun Sect as an example. Cangyun Sect spends a million taels on the back mountain ancestral hall every year. The annual financial budget of Cangyun Sect is around 10 million taels.

Some people can't help but ask, Cangyun Sect is a cultivator who lives deep in the mountains and spends tens of millions of taels of silver every year. Where does the money come from?

In fact, cultivators, especially sects, are not very short of money.

One, collect rent. The major cultivation sects all have their own land. Let’s take Cangyunmen as an example. Although the main altar is in Cangyun Mountain, in fact, its core territory is very wide. All the imperial courts of the past dynasties have included Bazhong, Baling and other places under Cangyun Mountain. Under Yunmen, from field tax to business tax, the court took

60% will be turned over to the treasury, and the remaining 40% will belong to Cangyun Sect. This is one of the main sources of income for Cangyun Sect, with three million taels of silver being recorded every year.

Second, the filial piety of the outer family. Cangyun Sect has many outer sect families, and these families are almost all prominent families in the world. For example, the Jinling Ruan family where Master Jingshui was born, the Guo family where Guo Hui was born, the Yang family in Hanyang, etc. all belong to the outer sect families of the Cangyun Sect. These families will meet every year.

Tribute a large amount of money and materials to Cangyun Sect.

Third, do business.

If any sect wants to develop, it cannot do without money. The same is true for Cangyun Sect. Cangyun Sect's business is very large, and its layout is relatively early. Now it has shares in Huitong Tianxia's Jiuzhou Bank, Qiankun Bank, and Cangyun Sect.

In addition to the most profitable financial industry, Cangyun Sect has also extended its business tentacles to three lucrative industries: silk, porcelain, and tea. Shu Brocade, in particular, is Cangyun Sect’s biggest business besides ticket numbers.

These three major sources of income support the healthy development of the entire Cangyun Sect.

In contrast, other sects have relatively single economic sources due to their late deployment.

Buddhism has two main incomes, one is collecting land rent, and the other is the believers' money for sesame oil.

Especially the money for sesame oil makes Buddhism fat.

The Guangming Holy Fire Sect in the Western Region does not do business or collect rent, they collect taxes.

The thirty-six countries in the Western Region are all their believers, and 30% of the taxes paid by the people of the Western Region to the city lord belong to the Guangming Holy Fire Sect.

Other sects almost only hold inner disciple competitions every thirty years, but the Demon Sect is divided into pieces and has a wide distribution of power, but it holds a temple test every ten years.

Why is the time interval so short?

It’s not just about sharing money.

In every temple trial, in addition to the battles between young disciples, there is also a very important activity, which is the sharing of money.

Countries in the Western Region and grassland tribes will hand over 30% of the tax collected to the Demon Sect's Wilderness Temple. The Five Elements Banner will be responsible for statistics and collection, and will distribute it to the various forces of the Demon Sect every ten years.

The Western Region is very wealthy, and the tax money accumulated for ten years is almost more than thirty million taels every time. It is then distributed reasonably according to the number of disciples reported by each sect. The Demon Sect has been fiercely fighting within itself over the years, but it still maintains a high degree of unity until now. The reason why no Demon Sect sect has left the Light Holy Fire Sect has a lot to do with the distribution of money. Because once a sect breaks away from the Light Holy Fire Sect, it will

You are not qualified to participate in the money sharing. If you don’t have money, you won’t have food to eat.

Now, more than 4,000 people from various factions of the Demon Cult have also assembled.

There are already a large number of them, and they don't like to deal with the righteous disciples. In the past few days, they have gathered together in meetings on the top of the mountain.

Now that these four thousand people are gathered together, they are not attracting attention.

Similar to the disciples gathered by Cangyun Sect, the disciples gathered by Demon Sect are mainly young masters.

These people all have sinister expressions and eyes like eagles. At first glance, they are ruthless masters who kill without blinking an eye.

These young masters from different factions of the Demon Sect were able to work together for two reasons: faith and money.

Yu Linglong and others didn't know what Ye Xiaochuan was going to do, and these demon sect disciples certainly didn't know either. They only knew that they came to them today to do something big, and they might even kill people.

Killing people in public at the Human League may cause a chain reaction. Those who are timid will not be able to do this at all. The Demon Sect has sent so many masters today, which is certainly not something that a few young disciples can do. Last night, after Yu Linglong, Feng Tianqiong, Qu Xiangge and others returned to the camp, they immediately asked Ye Xiaochuan for help in recruiting people. things and one’s own sect

The head of the sect said.

Tuobayu also held a secret meeting last night for this purpose.

After discussions with many senior leaders of the Demon Sect, they decided to help Ye Xiaochuan this time.

Of course, this is not because the people of the Demon Sect are great, nor is it how charming Ye Xiaochuan is, but because the Demon Sect has muddied the waters of human alliance.

It’s easy to fish in muddy water.

So today the demon sect's troops arrived about half an hour earlier than usual.

After Ye Xiaochuan told Du Chun and others the general situation, he left the Cangyun Sect team and wandered alone on the top of the mountain. Unknowingly, he came to the area where the Demon Cult disciples gathered.

Seeing Ye Xiaochuan coming, Yu Linglong and others immediately asked people to let Ye Xiaochuan in. Soon, Ye Xiaochuan arrived at the center of the demon sect team. Surrounded by thousands of demon sect disciples, he was not afraid even though he was in the tiger's den.
