My Simulated Longevity

Li Fan, who had quietly changed his appearance, sat in the corner and listened attentively to the conversations of the monks in the fortress.

"Have you heard that the Immortal Alliance doesn't seem to be planning to build a floating city in this Jiushan Prefecture?"

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"It's not because the space here is unstable. Although Tianzun Faxiang has completely plowed the Jiushan State, it has not changed the characteristics of the space. The teleportation array still cannot be used stably."

As soon as these words came out, all the monks suddenly realized.

"If we don't build a floating city...then there's no way that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will just ignore such a large piece of land, right?"

"It's hard to say. In the past, we could take advantage of the favorable geographical location of the Nine Mountains and build a city on the mountain. Now it's flat and there is no danger to defend it. The most important thing is that the teleportation array cannot be used. Once surrounded, no quick support can be obtained. No matter it is Both the defense cost and the effect are too bad.”

"You know nothing! The Five Elders Association was beaten by our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and came to ask for peace. Could it be possible that they still dare to take the initiative to invade? What danger could there be?"

"This fellow Taoist is so naive. Don't you know that there are no fixed rules in ancient times? How can a hero be determined by victory or defeat in a moment? The last time we were able to achieve victory, it was only because our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance took them by surprise and attacked them unprepared. According to I think if the two sides fight again, the outcome will still be uncertain!"

"That's not what you said when our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was defeated."

…

The monks in the fortress are very keen to discuss the situation in the Xuanhuang Realm.

Everyone insists on their own opinions and debates endlessly, and no one is convinced by anyone. So lively.

Li Fan looked around and found that besides himself, there was another monk who was just listening and not participating in the discussion.

This person looked to be in his thirties, with a black gown and silver-white hair. Listening to everyone's discussion, there was a trace of disdain in their eyes.

Obviously he didn't agree with the views of the monks present.

Li Fan smiled slightly, bought a pot of good spiritual wine, and sat in front of the other party.

"What do you call fellow Taoist?" Li Fan poured a glass for the silver-haired monk with a smile and asked.

"Huh?" The silver-haired monk was still wary of Li Fan's unprovoked attentiveness.

Instead of answering Li Fan's question, he narrowed his eyes and kept looking at the familiar monk in front of him.

"Haha, you don't need to be suspicious, fellow Taoist. I can tell at a glance that your Taoist is majestic and unlike ordinary people, and that you have a gap in your heart. I am also very curious about the future situation of Jiushan Prefecture, so I want to take the liberty of asking your Taoist for your opinion."

The silver-haired monk looked at Li Fan's sincere face. After hesitating for a long time, he still let down his guard.

After drinking the spiritual wine in one gulp, the silver-haired monk said: "Haha, you asked the right person!"

"My name is Xin Hongzhang, and in terms of my knowledge of information, these people here can't compare to me!"

When Li Fan heard this, he quickly poured another cup for Xin Hongzhang.

Xin Hongzhang was very satisfied with Li Fan's attitude and sent a message: "For the sake of our fate, I will reveal a little bit to you. Remember not to spread the word."

Li Fan nodded repeatedly.

"Actually, those people are right. The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance does not plan to build a floating city in Jiushan Prefecture. But this does not mean that the Immortals Alliance will give up here."

"Instead, the Fairy Alliance decided to establish the first free trade state in history here."

"Oh? Free trade state?" Looking at the other party's serious look, Li Fan couldn't help but become really interested, "What does this mean?"

Xin Hongzhang said proudly: "Do you know the Wanfa Chamber of Commerce? The Five Elders of the Ten Thousand Immortals League have been at odds with each other for many years and have banned the circulation of their own goods. The Wanfa Chamber of Commerce in Jiushan Prefecture is located in the buffer zone between the two, regardless of Neither the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance nor the Five Elders Association can control it. So the Ten Thousand Fa Chamber of Commerce can sell all kinds of precious treasures openly. Although the prices are high, there is still an endless stream of monks who come from thousands of miles to buy."

"But these are all old records. The Tianzun Dharma showed his power and the entire Jiushan State was razed to the ground. Although the Wanfa Chamber of Commerce was not completely wiped out, it also suffered heavy losses. It is difficult to be like before..." Xin Hongzhang shook his head.

"However, the leader of the Ten Thousand Laws Chamber of Commerce is indeed a figure. He actually convinced the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to lift trade restrictions in Jiu Shan State. Both the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association monks can come here to freely trade the materials they need. You only need to pay a small amount of tax.”

"Led by the Immortal Alliance, assisted by the experienced Wanfa Chamber of Commerce. It is said that a secret agreement has been reached with the Five Elders Association to ensure that even if war starts again in the future, neither party will choose to start a war in Jiushan Prefecture..."

"By the way, you know what it means to be able to confirm safe free transactions, right?" Xin Hongzhang stared at Li Fan.

Li Fan nodded, his eyes showing excitement.

"It is conceivable that the Jiushan Prefecture, which is still desolate now, will become extremely prosperous in the near future. It may even surpass the four major prefectures in the hinterland. If we can seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we will definitely be able to change our destiny... "Xin Hongzhang also drank another glass of spirit wine to vent his inner excitement.

"If it weren't for this reason, I would have traveled thousands of miles to come to this remote border place."

Li Fan lowered his head and was silent for a long time, seeming to be digesting the shocking news.

Then he raised his head and said to Xin Hongzhang with gratitude: "Such important inside information, Taoist fellow Taoist actually casually told me, a stranger who met by chance..."

Xin Hongzhang waved his hand: "Haha, if you hadn't taken the initiative to talk to me and ordered a pot of good wine, I wouldn't have told you about this."

"Actually, this matter is not a top secret. The announcement from the Immortal Alliance should be out soon. You and I can just take advantage of it."

"By the way, fellow Taoist, if you have enough contribution points, you may wish to keep an eye on Jiushan Prefecture's cave purchase qualifications recently."

"I bet that within ten years, the price of caves here will at least double! Even increasing three or four times is not a problem. If we can buy a few caves at the beginning, we can sell them soon..."

"It's simply a business with no capital and huge profit!"

Xin Hongzhang whispered again.

"Fellow Daoist Xin is so far-sighted!" Li Fan looked like he was waking up from a dream and patted his head, "Why didn't I think of that?"

The praises came one after another.

After drinking too much spirit wine, Xin Hongzhang couldn't help but feel a little carried away when he heard Li Fan's flattery.

Suddenly, he saw Li Fan seemed to be hesitating.

Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he said in a mysterious voice: "Fellow Daoist Xin treats me like this, I can't be stingy anymore."

"To be honest, I have a secret technique called [God's presence]. If fellow Taoists don't mind it, I can teach it to you."

Seeing Li Fan being so cautious, Xin Hongzhang smiled and disagreed.
