Chapter 392: Taizhou’s Tentacles (2)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
In the past, the income of the Seaview Immortal City had once surpassed the Chen family’s magic tool factory and pill factory. Later on, the factory expanded and the talisman factory was established.
These major industries had become the unshakable core interests of the Chen family.
From this, it could be seen how terrifying the benefits of an immortal city were.
In the end, Guanhai Immortal City was just a small city with only a few hundred thousand cultivators.
Not to mention an immortal city with tens of millions of cultivators like Yuan Chen Immortal City.
Even compared to Guang ‘an City, Seaview Immortal City was far inferior.
Such a small immortal city had such ridiculous benefits.
One could imagine how terrifying the annual profits of a large-scale immortal city like Yuan Chen Immortal City were.
No wonder Perfected Lord Yuanchen took out 10 billion spirit stones to ask Zhou Mubai to help him.
Then, he spent 120 drops of the Power of Creation to buy a Great Dao stone tablet from Chen Daoxuan.
Chen Daoxuan even suspected that these 120 drops of Power of Creation were very likely bought by Perfected Lord Yuan Chen’s spirit stones and not refined by himself.
After ail, he was not short of money.
Seeing Chen Daolan’s thoughtful look, Chen Daoxuan continued,””But it’s different for the freelance martial artists in our Chen family’s hands. They will work in our factory.
In this way, the value created by the secret practitioners would be at least dozens or even hundreds of times higher than in the past!
And the benefits we give to the wandering cultivators are far from what the
Zhou family and the Yang family can compare to.”
Hearing this.
Chen Dailian’s eyes widened. In the end, even his breathing became more rapid.
She couldn’t believe it, but she couldn’t think of a reason to refute it.
Chen Daoxuan saw her incredulous look and understood her very well.
Without personally witnessing the crushing effect of advanced industrial production on backward manual production, one would not dare to believe the gap between them.
At least Chen Daolan knew how efficient his magic tool factory was.
If it were someone who had never seen the Chen family’s magical equipment factory, they would think that Chen Daoxuan was bragging.
” Of course!” Chen Daoxuan smiled confidently.” There are many things to do to build the Industrial Immortal City, but the first step is to build a school in Guanhai Immortal City!””
“Build a school?”
Chen Daolan suddenly recalled the days when Chen Daoxuan taught them how to refine artifacts in the workshop.
“You mean to build a school to train professional refiners?”
Chen Daoxuan knew what Chen Daolian meant by “professional refiner”.
“Yes,” he nodded.
He paused for a moment,” Building this school isn’t simple. Apart from ensuring that they have enough Thawing Spirit Stoves, they also need an abundance of industrial workers to help them.
Therefore, we have to continue to train industrial workers!”
“Do you mean that we should build a crash school to train ordinary industrial workers?”
“Yes, and it’s a large-scale construction.”
Chen Daoxuan nodded.
When Chen Daolan heard this, he didn’t dare to be negligent. He quickly walked to the table and picked up a blank jade slip.
He combined Chen Daoxuan’s suggestion with his own thoughts and recorded them into the jade slip.
After recording the jade slip, Chen Daolan raised his head.” Young Clan Leader, I’m still confident that I can manage the clan by letting ordinary clansmen work together with the clan’s cultivators. But if ordinary people work together with rogue cultivators, I’m worried…”
“Are you worried that wandering cultivators will bully ordinary mortals?”
Chen Dailian nodded.
“Black sheep will be found anywhere.”
Chen Daoxuan’s expression was indifferent.” But we can’t be intimidated just because of those black sheep. Our clan has nearly five hundred Zifu Disciples; can’t we suppress an immortal city?
What are you worried about?”
Hearing this, Chen Dailian was shocked.
If Young Clan Leader didn’t mention it, she would have forgotten that Chen Clan was no longer the same as before.
The southwest sea of the Infinite Star Sea.
High in the sky.
A spirit ship set off from Taizhou and flew towards Cangzhou.
In the cabin of the spirit ship, there was a small grotto-heaven that was filled with immortal energy.
In the depths of the cave, there was an immortal palace. One could vaguely see beautiful maidservants shuttling through it.
In an empty hall in the center of the Immortal Palace.
Two cultivators, one old and one young, were playing chess.
Normally speaking, when a cultivator achieved success in cultivation, they would have a technique to retain their appearance. From the outside, they were no different from young people.
However, this cultivator looked old.
However, his cultivation was extremely high and he was only a step away from becoming a Nascent Soul. He was a top-notch Golden Core.
The young man opposite the old man had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. What was more eye-catching was that there was a divine pattern on his forehead. This person was the Dao Child of the Jiang Family, Jiang Chenye.
“Pa-”
As he spoke, the silver-haired old man placed a piece and instantly captured Jiang Chenye’s Great Dragon.
“Hmm?”
Jiang Chenye was slightly stunned. He immediately cupped his hands with a bitter smile and said,”Seventh granduncle’s chess skills are far superior to mine, Chenye is convinced.”
Who knew that when he heard this.
The silver-haired old man shook his head.” It’s not that my chess skills are far superior to yours. It’s just that your heart is too chaotic. It’s not on this chessboard at all.””
As he spoke, the silver-haired old man gently placed the remaining chess pieces in his hand into the jade jar.
Seeing Jiang Chenye’s dejected expression, the silver-haired old man asked,””This old man has cultivated for more than 630 years. During this time, I’ve seen countless geniuses, but most of them have turned into dust.
Do you know why?”
Jiang Chenye shook his head.
“Compared to the endless Great Dao, you and 1 are no different. We are just a drop in the ocean.. What is a temporary lead in front of this long road of seeking Dao?”
