Ever since the Western Defense Region’s allied forces stationed their troops on Redwood Island.

He spent money like water.

If it weren’t for the fact that Guang ‘an Prefecture’s coalition army commander Zhou Minghao had tried to win Chen Daoxuan over and the Chen family had provided strong logistical support to the front line of the eastern defense zone, the situation would have been much worse.

If it were anyone else, they would dare to “misappropriate” the military funds of the Western Defense Zone.

The Guang ‘an Prefecture Coalition Army had long since taken them down for corruption and dereliction of duty.

Ever since the Western Defense District stationed troops on Redwood Island, not only had they built a Level Three spirit vein, but they had also built more than ten Level Two spirit veins on more than ten islands nearby, imitating the Zhou Clan and the Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal Alliance, for the use of itinerant cultivators and other small clans.

They were also responsible for patrolling the Spirit Void Battleship.

Just the cost of building the spirit vein alone was as high as 20 million spirit stones.

The huge order for magical equipment from the Chen family cost him millions of spirit stones.

The construction of the Sea-viewing Immortal City had cost the western defense region alliance army nearly 50 million spirit stones.

Logically speaking.

The Seaview Immortal City that was built with this amount of money should belong to the Western Defense Region Alliance Army, but anyone with eyes could see it.

However, the Chen family had transferred its tax authority to their own family.

This was a blatant military expenditure for private use.

It was one thing for the military expenditure to be used for private purposes, but the key was that the original 80 million spiritual stones military expenditure was almost gone.

Not to mention doing other things, even paying the soldiers was a little difficult.

In the main hall of the Western Defense Division headquarters.

Chen Daoxuan looked at Lei Zhen, who was standing in front of him with a nervous expression, and said with a smile,”Why are you so nervous? My Chen family is on Shuanghu Island, which is a few hundred miles away from Redwood Island. Are you worried that my Chen family will run away?”

He shook his head. Don’t worry, 1 will honestly distribute this month’s pay.”

After saying that, he waved at Ray Zhen.

When Lei Zhen heard this, he looked at his immediate superior with slight hesitation. He cupped his hands and slowly withdrew from the hall.

Watching Lei Zhen leave the hall, Chen Daoxuan muttered,””! think Daochuan should be back soon…”

“Young Clan Leader!”

A Spirit Void Battleship descended from the sky.

Chen Daochu flew down from the Spirit Void Battleship. When he saw Chen Daoxuan, he immediately bowed.

Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Daichuan, who had grown into an adult, and couldn’t help but feel emotional.

Chen Daochuan was brought to the flying sword shop in Guang ‘an Prefecture by Chen Xianhe when he was fourteen years old. He then took over the entire magic tool business in Guang’ an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market.

Chen Daochuan was already twenty years old.

It could be said that Chen Daoxuan had watched him grow up bit by bit in front of him.

When he saw the beard growing out of the corner of his mouth, he couldn’t help but sigh. The cultivators of the Chen Clan’s Dao generation had finally grown up.

Not only that, but Chen Daochuan also possessed a middle spirit root. After years of painstaking cultivation by the Chen family, he had finally reached the ninth qi layer.

At this rate, it would take at least two to three years if it was fast, and ten years if it was slow.

Chen Daochuan would be able to reach the Foundation Establishment stage by the age of 30 at the latest.

Chen Daoxuan patted Chen Daichuan’s shoulder and said,””You’ve worked hard!”

Chen Daochuan looked at Chen Daoxuan and shook his head with a silent smile.

“Come, let’s talk inside.”

“Yes, Young Clan Leader!”

Chen Daichuan cupped his hands and followed Chen Daoxuan into the hall.

The two of them sat in their respective seats. Chen Daoxuan personally brewed a pot of spiritual tea for him, and the two of them chatted while drinking.

About an hour later.

Chen Daochuan finally understood why Chen Daoxuan had transferred him back to Seawatch City.

Compared to Guang ‘an City’s wandering cultivator market, the market was much better.

What the Chen Family did in the Seaview Immortal City was truly related to the future foundation of the Chen Family.

“But…What about the flying sword shop in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market?”

Chen Daochuan frowned and looked at Chen Daoxuan.

Over the years.

There were already more than two Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword shops in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market.

According to Chen Daochuan, the Chens owned a total of six shops in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market.

It completely covered all the major streets of the wandering cultivator market.

The types of swords in the Rainbow Sound flying sword shop had changed greatly.

In the past, the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop practically only sold the Scarlet Shadow Flying Sword, a low-grade level one flying sword.

But now.

Not only did Hong Yinfei’s shop sell low-grade level one flying swords, but the types of low-grade level one flying swords were also no longer limited to the Scarlet Shadow Flying Sword.

Moreover, there were even middle-grade and high-grade Level One flying swords for sale.

Of course.

There were only a few Qi Condensation cultivators who could afford a superior-grade first-tier flying sword.

Moreover, even if they had 500 spirit stones in their pockets, most of them wanted to rent a better cave abode or buy spirit pills.

Instead of choosing to change the magic tool from low-grade or middle-grade to high-grade.

This was too extravagant for a Qi Condensation rogue cultivator.

He pondered for a moment.

“Who else is in charge of the flying sword shop in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Rogue Cultivator Market besides you?” Chen Daoxuan raised his head.”

” Wei Sihai, Senior Wei from the United States.”

“It’s him…”

Chen Daoxuan nodded. He still remembered the stall owner he had met when he first went to Guang ‘an City.

Last time, he had met him in the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop.

He hadn’t expected that he would become the second-in-command of the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Rogue Cultivator Market.

But thinking about it carefully, it was normal.

When Wei Sihai first joined the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop, he was still in a daze.

The Rainbow SonSonar Flying Sword Shop had just opened its first branch, and there were only Chen Xianhe and Chen Daochuan in the shop. Now, the Chen family had opened six branches in Guang ‘an Prefecture.

Of course, his status rose with the tide and he became an old veteran.

“What do you think of Wei Sihai’s character?” Chen Daoxuan nodded.”

Hearing this.

Chen Daichuan’s heart skipped a beat. He understood the meaning behind Chen Daoxuan’s words.

Chen Daoxuan wanted Wei Sihai to manage the Chen family’s magic tool business in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Rogue Cultivator Market.

“Senior Wei is a calm and low-key person. He’s more trustworthy, but…”

Chen Daochuan voiced his concerns.

To be honest.

It was rare in the entire Infinite Star Sea to let outsiders take over the family business.

This was because it was impossible for the clan cultivators to lack manpower.

They might hire outsiders to help, but they would never hand over the entire business of an immortal city to outsiders.

What if Wei Sihai ran away with the money? What if he tried to raise the price of the flying sword and corrupt it?

There would be many problems.

But compared to these small problems, Chen Daoxuan saw further.

Hearing Chen Daochuan’s worry.

“The Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop was indeed the pillar of income for my Chen family, but now, it’s no longer.

Whether it’s the pill business or the magic tool business of the Guang ‘an Prefecture alliance army, both of them far exceed the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop’s turnover.”

Chen Daoxuan paused,” Other than that, the most important foundation of my Chen Family is the Seaview Immortal City. Only when this immortal city is prosperous can my Chen Family truly have the foundation of a large family.”

Compared to doing business in other people’s immortal cities, how could it be more profitable than operating an immortal city alone?

As long as the Chen family managed the Sea Viewing Immortal City well, the tax revenue alone would be enough to make the Chen family fat.

Why was the Zhou family so rich?

It was not just because of the Zhou family’s various industries. More importantly, they had previously owned a huge immortal city that was one of the best in the entire Azure Continent, Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal City.

The Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance had built the Ling Zhou Immortal City because the Yang family and the other families in Guang’ an Prefecture were unwilling to see the Zhou family monopolize the largest part of the Guang ‘an Prefecture.

Since the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance could do it, why couldn’t the Chen Family?

If there wasn’t the zombie tide on Lotus Island, Chen Daoxuan wouldn’t have dared to make this decision so quickly.

However, now that the zombie tide had broken out on Lotus Island, the Zhou family had to compromise and give up a portion of their interests in order to ensure the internal stability of Guang ‘an Prefecture.

The so-called division of the five defense zones was more like the division of the Guang ‘an Prefecture’s interests.

Guang ‘an Prefecture’s West Defense District was where the Chen Family’s influence lay.

Why couldn’t his Chen Family build a new immortal city on his own territory?

Of course, building an immortal city was one thing. Whether or not the immortal city could be developed was another matter.

Ling Zhou Immortal City had a good start. It was Yang Lingyuan who had created a spirit vein around this immortal city to open up spirit fields and grow spirit herbs for itinerant cultivators.

But soon, this move was imitated by the Zhou family.

And now, it was being imitated by Chen Daoxuan.

In this aspect, the Chen family had no advantage at all. Instead, they fell behind because they were late.

Moreover, the Chen Family had also encountered the same predicament as the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance when they were building the Seaview Immortal City.

It was the problem of not having enough spirit stones.

One had to know that he had yet to support itinerant cultivators to open up spirit fields and grow spirit herbs on the dozen or so grade two spirit veins that his Chen family had opened up. If that was the case, he would need to prepare an even larger amount of spirit stones for circulation.

“Letting Fellow Daoist Wei manage the flying sword industry of our Chen Clan in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market will be a trial for our Chen Clan’s future development.

Our Chen family is still young, and we don’t have enough cultivators in the Dao generation. Only by boldly using outsiders can we conform to the rapid development of our Chen family.”

Chen Daoxuan analyzed slowly,” As for the problem of stealing money and corruption that you are worried about, as long as we establish an incentive salary system and a strict financial management system, we can avoid this situation from happening.

Of course, there will always be times when we don’t know the right person and make a mistake. However, this loss is completely acceptable to our Chen family.

“In fact, our Chen family can even promise that in the future, if these meritorious cultivators serve our Chen family for a certain number of years, our Chen family can help them establish a new cultivation family and become our Chen family’s vassal family.”

Hearing this, Chen Daochuan’s eyes lit up.

If one were to ask what the greatest wish of a rogue cultivator was, it would definitely be to become an immortal.

However…

Whether it was the cultivators of the sects, clans, or itinerant cultivators, they all knew in their hearts that it had been hundreds of thousands of years since anyone had ascended to the Upper Realm.

The saying of becoming an immortal had almost become an illusory legend.

At least to rogue cultivators, it was an untouchable dream.

Helping them to establish a cultivation clan, becoming the clan patriarch himself, and watching his descendants pass down the clan, this could be said to be the most tempting thing for an itinerant cultivator with no hope of becoming an immortal.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of itinerant cultivators did not have the opportunity and capital.

To create a cultivation clan, even the weakest Qi Refinement clan needed both wealth and land.

How could an ordinary rogue cultivator have so much savings?

Rogue cultivators who could establish a cultivation clan were all tycoons among the rogue cultivators.

Now, the Chen family, a major family in Guang an Prefecture, was willing to help the freelance martial artists practitioners establish their own cultivation families. They were even willing to accept their families as their underlings. For the freelance martial artists practitioners, this was simply a good thing that fell from the sky.

u

It’s feasible! It’s feasible!”

Chen Daochuan’s eyes lit up as he nodded repeatedly.” If the condition is to help a rogue cultivator establish a cultivation clan in the future, I believe that no rogue cultivator will be able to resist this temptation.. They will definitely do their best to serve our Chen Family!”
