Natural Fairy Species

Chapter 54 Market

 Baiyu Tower, lobby.

“During the time I was practicing in seclusion, did anything major happen inside the door?”

When Bai Zichen came out of the practice room, Peng Jinhu was using magic to cut off the weeds in the cave so as not to occupy the growing space of several exotic flowers.

 Then he called Su Lie over and asked him questions.

"Back to Young Master Bai, there are no major events in the sect, and the head is still in seclusion. It is said that the war between good and evil outside has stopped, and a Nascent Soul Lord has intervened to mediate, and both sides can only stop fighting."

Su Lie was obviously well prepared. He took out a silk book filled with regulations from his sleeve and handed it over.

 “The True Lord Yuanying?”

Bai Zichen frowned and asked, "Where did the True Lord Yuanying come from in Mizhou? The number one person in the demonic path, the Blood God, has also reached the perfect state of forming pills!"

If we say that Master Jiedan is a high-level combat force in Mizhou, he can completely reverse the local situation and determine the prosperity of each clan.

That Nascent Soul True Monarch was purely a dimensionality reduction strike. He didn’t even have to take action personally. He could change the situation of the battle between good and evil with just a few words.

“The specific details are small and low-level, so I can’t find out. These were revealed during casual chats with the outer disciples.”

“Some people speculate that the Supreme Elder from the Qishan Holy Lotus Sect took action. After all, this war between good and evil has spread to more than ten sects in three states, and it is possible that the Holy Lotus Sect will intervene.”

Bai Zichen lightly tapped the table with his fingers and pondered silently.

The consequences of one thought of the Nascent Soul Master will affect thousands of monks, but this level is too far away from him, and the information that comes out is all imagined by the monks at the bottom.

 “Tell me something else.”

“The disciples within the sect are most concerned about the little disciple of the sect right now. Someone has already opened a bet in private. I have copied the names of the top five outer sect disciples with the highest odds.”

"Last month, when a handyman disciple went out to collect medicine, he discovered a Millennium Golden Crown Ganoderma lucidum. After turning it over to the sect, he was promoted to an outer disciple and given a lot of rewards... All the handyman disciples went crazy. That mountain is almost hollowed out.”

“Two of the inner disciples sent a name card and asked to meet Mr. Bai when he was free. A total of seven outer disciples came to visit…”

Su Lie reported each item in an orderly manner.

If Bai Zichen is interested in something, Su Lie can immediately start it and describe it in detail.

 For example, the two inner disciples who sent me the invitation have any deeds in the past that need attention.

 The seven outer sect disciples, what level of cultivation progress they have, what relationships they have in the sect, and whether they have promotion potential.

 Apparently enough homework has been done.

From this point of view, Bai Zichen did not choose the wrong person. Such a guard can make him worry a lot less.

"Reply to the two inner disciples and make an appointment for a get-together later this month. The date can be chosen by them... As for the outer disciples, they have disappeared. If anyone comes to visit me in the future, just say no to me."

As both inner disciples, Bai Zichen is willing to spend some time making friends, and by the way, he can refer to where his strength ranks.

He has no time to deal with the outer disciples.

 In the world of immortality, great power ultimately belongs to oneself, and those who have long sleeves and are good at dancing have limited space for them to exert themselves.

Even if you win over a group of outer disciples who cheer for you, it won't be of any help to your promotion to a true disciple.

“Well done, just follow this template when collecting information in the future, and the focus should still be on the sect.”

It's not that external information is unimportant, it's just that at Su Lie's level, it's difficult to tell whether the intelligence collected is true or not, unlike the sect's information where there are always traces to follow.

“By the way, how much do you know about Zongmenfang City?”

Bai Zichen changed the subject and asked about Fangshi, whom he had been curious about for a long time.

"So that Mr. Bai will know that before I came to Qingfeng Gate, I was making a living in the city. I worked as a receptionist at Wanbao Pavilion for several years."

Su Lie was refreshed. As a guard, the greater the value he showed, the more trusted he would be by the inner disciples who followed him.

 …

 Chingfengmenfang City.

 It is about five hundred miles away from Qingfengmen Mountain and is located at the key pass in and out of Black Mountain.

 Although it is named after Fangshi, after hundreds of years of development, it has become about the same size as a town.

At first there were only a dozen buildings, but now there are four streets and a stall square that continues to extend outwards.

There were even casual cultivators who built residences on the outskirts, but the Qingfeng Sect did not intervene. Gradually, more and more people came, and it can be said that more than half of the casual cultivators in Montenegro were gathered together.

There are also descendants without spiritual roots who are born to casual cultivators, who also thrive nearby, and all rely on the huge group of monks to survive.

So, when Bai Zichen Yujian arrived at Fangshi, he saw a picture that was completely different from what he imagined.

The chaotic and densely packed building complex looks like countless matchboxes from the air, stacked one on top of another.

Going towards the center, there is a long and narrow square in the shape of a ring. A large number of casual cultivators occupy a space here to sell goods because they cannot afford to rent shops in the market.

 Huge crowds of people gathered in the square, choosing their favorite items at the stalls.

 Most of the time, there is no need to trade spiritual stones, but barter.

 The core area is naturally four staggered streets, the real Qingfengmenfang City.

 There was a thin layer of fog that enveloped the entire city.

This is Fangshi's protective formation. Qingfengmen has arranged two foundation-building elders to sit here, which shows how much they attach importance to it.

By controlling this market, the entire Black Mountain County monks are working for the Qingfeng Sect in disguise. Countless spiritual stones and massive cultivation resources are gathered here to earn profits for the sect.

 Fangshi’s annual income is still growing rapidly.

“Wanbao Pavilion, Wuxingmen Trading Company… These two companies have indeed occupied good locations. I don’t know where the Bai family’s shop is located. From what the fat man said, it should be in the corner.”

 At the main entrance of Fangshi, there were several disciples of the Qingfeng Sect guarding the gate, but they did not inquire about the monks coming and going.

According to Su Lie, at night, except for the disciples of Qingfeng Sect, there are only three types of people: those who own a shop in the market, are employed by a shop for a long time, and spend a lot of spiritual stones to live in a store opened by Qingfeng Sect. Only the people can stay.

 The rest of the people must all leave the city.

It's not like Bai Zichen imagined that all the shops in the market belong to Qingfengmen.

In addition to the exclusive Di store, Qingfengmen has also opened seven or eight stores, all in prominent locations, covering almost all walks of life.

 The remaining shops have been sold to major cultivating families. There are even some casual cultivators who have accumulated spiritual stones for a lifetime and have partnered with others to buy a small shop.

  After all, there is a policy in the city that all casual cultivators with spiritual roots and descendants and good credit in the past can pay 30% of the down payment, and the remaining spiritual stones plus interest can be slowly paid off over a period of up to 60 years.

There are two other shops in Fang City, which are located in the most conspicuous positions at the intersection of the street.

Wanbao Pavilion, Wuxingmen Trading Company, two branches of Danjie level forces opened in Qingfengmenfang City.
