Chapter 624 The Background of the Red Eyed Bandit
This time, the transaction with the sect of the Southern Region has yielded huge gains, and the wealth on the books of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom has almost doubled.
After reading the account book presented by Xu Lun, Wang Hong felt overwhelmed, but it is a pity that the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom currently only has this exclusive trade route.
If a few more such business routes can be opened, the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom will take off just around the corner.
It's a pity that such a good thing is rare. Because of the barrier of Jue Linghai and Hezhou's remoteness, it didn't attract the attention of the big powers. Anyway, the big powers don't lack this little source of income.
Small and medium-sized forces have limited strength. If they are not strong enough, they can easily annihilate the entire army. It is not impossible to lose their wives and lose their troops, or even be robbed by Hezhou monks.
"Your Majesty, do we need to prepare the next batch of trading materials now?" Xu Lun asked after seeing that Wang Hong had finished reading the account books.
"No need for now, after this transaction, it will take at least ten years for the monks in the Southern Region to consume these spirits.
Now send another batch over there, even if they want all of them, they probably won’t be able to come up with a few spirit stones. "
This transaction has already taken out all the wealth of the five sects in the Southern Region, so they have to raise it again.
Moreover, it is impossible for the monks in the Southern Region to use up so many training resources immediately. At least it will take more than ten years to slowly digest them. By then, the strength of the monks in the Southern Region should also be greatly improved.
For the next step of the business plan, Wang Hong had already planned. He only thought about it for a while, and then said:
"The spiritual stones and resources harvested this time should be invested in the development of Fengwu Continent. Xu Lun is still in charge of this matter.
Your goal is to open the shops of my Great Chu Immortal Kingdom all over the Fengwu Continent. How is the progress now? "
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom currently operates in Fengwu Continent, covering six cities, with a total of thirty-eight elixir shops, thirty-two spirit fruit shops, eighteen spirit wine shops, and spirit wine shops. There are forty-two dining rooms..."
Xu Lun made a detailed report on Xianguo's current industry in Fengwu Continent.
Over the past few decades, the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom has owned hundreds of stores, each with different names and different business items. Sometimes two stores are still competing on the surface.
This makes it difficult for outsiders to connect these humble small and medium businesses.
At the same time, each city will also operate a guard hall, which can receive spirit stones, be hired by people, and do some work that takes money from people and eliminates disasters for people.
The main purpose of the guard hall is still for the safety of the shops in each city, but on the surface it is an independent organization and has nothing to do with any force.
Over the years, some of their shops have occasionally caused some troubles. If they can be solved on the bright side, they will be solved on the bright side.
The opponents they can provoke for small and medium-sized shops like theirs are unlikely to be any big forces, and it is easy to solve them.
These hundreds of shops have earned a lot of resources for the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom in these years to supply domestic consumption.
Otherwise, with the limited resource output of Qizhou Island, how can it support the consumption of millions of people.
The large amount of wealth harvested this time will not be used for a while. It is a waste to put it in the warehouse. It can just be invested in the store to expand the business.
Xu Lun took over Wang Hong's task and went to recruit manpower to open new stores in other cities.
On the Fengwu Continent, there are hundreds of immortal cities of the scale of Linhai City. They have only developed six cities so far, and the follow-up tasks have a long way to go!
In order to open up a new territory, Xu Lun has mobilized a large number of manpower this time and plans to send it to Fengwu Continent.
For this reason, Wang Hong spent a few more days and arranged a spiritual restriction for everyone.
When he personally sent these subordinates away, Wang Yi found him in a hurry.
"Brother! Look! Look!"
"What's wrong with your hand, is it hurt?"
"Look carefully." Wang Yi made a gesture with his middle finger.
"Isn't it just a pig iron ring, worthy of such excitement?"
Wang Yi heard the words, just wiped the ring, and there was an extra pill bottle in his hand, and then various items appeared in his hand one after another, until Wang Hong's living room was piled up, and then he stopped.
"I made a fortune recently, and these are for you."
Wang Hong glanced at the treasures piled up in the living room with his spiritual sense, and none of them was lower than the fourth rank, and then turned his gaze to the black iron ring in his hand.
"It turns out that I made a fortune. Is this the storage ring?"
"Well, I got it from the Red Eye Bandit."
Originally, he wanted to whet Wang Hong's appetite, but he would forget about it now, take it off and hand it to Wang Hong to observe.
Although Wang Hong used a large storage magic weapon to cover the space before, it was the first time to observe the storage magic weapon up close.
"Brother! I also found a secret from the storage ring of the Red Eyed Bandit this time. Look at this."
Speaking, Wang Yi took out several jade slips and handed them to Wang Hong.
The Jade Slips contain some accounts of the Red Eye Pirates.
What surprised Wang Hong was not that pirates like to keep accounts, but that the one with the closest relationship with the Red Eyed Pirates was the first sect in Fengwu Continent—Tiannv Palace.
From these current accounts, it can be seen that the backstage of the red-eyed bandit is most likely the Tiannv Palace, but the specific extent of the relationship between the two parties is unknown.
There have long been rumors in the world of cultivating immortals that many pirates are actually secretly controlled by other forces.
Firstly, it can make money, and secondly, it can help the affiliated forces to do some shady activities.
"After you go back, immediately issue a gag order in Taihaozong, so that no one can talk about the red-eyed bandit encounter at sea, and I will immediately issue a gag order."
Fortunately, their caravan did not fly the flag of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, and their location has not been disclosed to the public. It is not easy for the red-eyed bandits to find them for revenge.
With the original strength of the Red Eye Pirates, if they guarded and wandered between Qizhou Island and Fengwu Continent, their business would be lost.
And the Taihao Sect is even worse. At present, there are only two Nascent Souls, Wang Yi and Zhou Yuan, who are not opponents of the Scarlet Eye Pirates at all.
As for Wang Yi's Taoist companion, Feng Ai, who is still in retreat, it is uncertain whether he can break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
"Our Tai Haozong has already made arrangements. Before I came, I had already issued strict orders for all the monks who went to sea this time, and then I will notify you immediately."
"Wait a moment, I will pass on a few orders."
Wang Hong issued several communication talismans one after another, and sent them to several subordinates in charge of the caravan.
As a king, he naturally doesn't need to do this kind of thing himself, just send a few messages, and his subordinates can handle it properly.
"So many spiritual things, are you sure you will give them to me? Don't leave more for yourself. You know, I am not short of spiritual things at present."
Wang Hong stared at the pile of spiritual creatures on the ground after the summons and asked, after all, he has always been relatively well-off.
On the contrary, Tai Haozong has been a bit poor in recent years, and Wang Yi, even as the ancestor of Yuanying, did not get much resources.
"Brother! I still have a lot, so you can keep them."
