025. Monk Exchange Meeting
Cultivating the Tao is originally a matter that consumes money and food, not to mention those pills and magic weapons that are monopolized by the master, even if you have money, you can't buy them. Medicated baths, those medicinal herbs cost money, right? They add meals every day, and the food they eat is made of spiritual materials, right? And the clothes you wear, and the embroidered spirit talisman also costs money, right? Not to mention other miscellaneous things.
As disciples of the Three Great Dao Sects, they have already taken advantage of it, and they don't have to run around for money every day, but, in addition to the needs of cultivation, the master rarely distributes other money, even if they do things for the master, they can only receive a small reward, spirit stones or something, they don't have to think about it - unless they can become real power managers like Zhang Zhaoguan and Gu Yuanliang, but that is not much easier than becoming a mage, they are all slightly weaker, they can't enter the third palace, but they have strong backers.
The so-called spirit stone was given to her with the Qiankun bag when she entered, the ten pieces of jade that shone with fluorescence. It is a stone full of aura, and it is very precious to store the invisible and intangible aura. As far as Lingyu knew, there were not many products produced in this thing, and most of them were divided among the Great Dao Temples, and only a very small part flowed out.
Because it is precious, easy to store, does not depreciate, and is very easy to measure, the spirit stone has become the currency of the cultivation realm. On the other hand, because it was too scarce, the monks still used a lot of gold and silver, as well as spiritual beads.
Spirit stones are natural, while spirit beads are artificial. Pearls and jade can store aura, but there are very few pearls that are born with aura, unlike spirit stones, which can form mineral veins. But they can transfer the spiritual energy stored on the spirit stone to the pearl, and thin the spiritual energy in it, forming a smaller currency value than the spirit stone, the spirit bead.
Normally, for them, the disciples of the upper court, gold and silver could no longer buy things that were useful to them, and the spirit stones were too precious, so the spirit beads became the main currency.
Lingyu had obtained the relics of Xuan Chenzi and the other three back then, and there were more than two hundred spirit stones in total, which was already a great wealth for a disciple like her.
The disciples of Xuanyuan Temple, when they enter the upper courtyard, the master will distribute ten spirit stones at one time, and then ten will be distributed every year, and there is no other way to obtain them. A disciple like her who has only been in the upper courtyard for a few years has only a few dozen spirit stones at most, plus daily cultivation, the speed of having spirit stones is much faster, these spirit stones are not enough for them to spend, it would be good to have a dozen or so around them.
At present, Lingyu is not short of money, in the early stage of sword cultivation, it is necessary to forge the body and cultivate the sword qi, and the consumption of spirit stones is not large. However, Ji Wu's mention still aroused her interest - if she had enough money, she could take another path, a path of dual cultivation of magic and sword, and in this way, her cultivation would grow much faster.
"Make money? How do you want to make money? ”
Ji Wu glanced at Shi Jingbai, who was eating quietly on the side, and said in a low voice, "I want to hold a monk exchange meeting." ”
"Huh?" Lingyu couldn't understand.
Ji Wudao: "I've been thinking about this for a long time, if you want to make money, who do you want to make money from?" It's impossible to be a teacher, is it the same door...... What do we earn? ”
Lingyu thought for a moment and nodded. The master is very strict about the control of resources, and for the disciples of the upper court, what they eat on weekdays is to be supplied as much as possible, but the spirit stones, magic weapons, and pills that are distributed will definitely not be given a little more. Do you make money from the same family, just like Ji Wu said, what do you earn? What they have, these fellow disciples have what, everyone knows how hard it is to get spirit stones, they only hate themselves for not being enough, how can they spend it?
Before Ji Wu entered the upper courtyard, he specially did some chores for the disciples of the upper courtyard, and he could earn some spirit beads, but after entering the upper courtyard, he would do such a thing, which would be both cheaper and not cost-effective. He has also done similar work as a broker, using his rich connections to match others, but between the disciples of the upper courtyard, there are not many transactions, and those referral fees are not enough to plug the gaps.
Lingyu has been in the business for three years, and he has never thought of earning spirit stones, in addition to being too busy, this is also an important reason. Judging from the perspective of her merchant family, the supply and demand relationship within Xuanyuanguan is completely unbalanced, and it is impossible to form a dynamic market, so no matter how you think about it, there is no way out. Unless the Xuanyuan Guan itself changes the way of cultivating disciples.
But is it possible? The Three Great Dao Views have been in this mode for hundreds of years, and if the Xuanyuan Temple is to be changed, the other two Great Dao Views must also be changed, which is a major event that affects the entire Dao Gate, and no one dares to make such a decision rashly.
Ji Wu said: "Therefore, if you want to make money, it is impossible to make money from within the division, and if you want to make money, you can only earn money from the outside." ”
Lingyu sighed: "But you know, the monks of the small Daoguan family are not rich, let alone scattered cultivators. ”
"But we have what they need." Ji Wu smiled mysteriously.
Seeing him like this, Lingyu was slightly stunned: "What do you mean ......?"
Ji Wuyan said: "Why do all the cultivators in the world want to squeeze into the Three Great Avenues? Of course, we have what they crave. ”
"First, the Three Great Dao Views monopolize resources; second, to be worshiped by the world, and to have a transcendent status; Third," Lingyu paused and said, "There is a complete set of methods for cultivating disciples. ”
Ji Wu smiled, a shrewd smile appeared on his dark-skinned and honest face, and gave her a thumbs up: "Senior Sister Cheng is Senior Sister Cheng, as soon as I said it, I thought of it." ”
was touted by him, Lingyu was not fluttering, and pulled back to the topic: "How do you get your so-called exchange meeting?" ”
Ji Wudao: "The sermon will start immediately, how about coming to talk to Senior Sister later?" ”
Lingyu looked at the dining hall that was gradually empty, and nodded: "I don't have to go to the Void Palace today, Senior Brother Ji is empty, just come to find me." ”
The two made an appointment, and then went separately to the Yuji Palace to listen to the sermon.
At noon, the sermon ended, and Lingyu returned to the small courtyard. Not long after, Ji Wu came to visit and told her in detail about his plan.
After listening to Ji Wu's plan, Lingyu couldn't help but admire, it was hard for him to think of it!
This monastic exchange is simply a loose membership organization, with no rights and obligations to each other, only supply and demand.
First of all, Ji Wu wanted to pull in a few capable disciples of the Upper Courtyard and use their names to set up this exchange meeting. Then, recruit members externally, and use the slogan of holding regular Taoist seminars and trade fairs to attract those small Taoist temples, small family disciples, and even casual cultivators.
These people, who have no serious inheritance, have a plausible understanding of the Taoist scriptures, and want to accept the formal Taoist teachings, but there is no way. At this time, an exchange composed of the disciples of the Upper Court of the Xuanyuan Temple will appear, and they will discuss the Tao on a regular basis, and they can exchange their cultivation experiences, how attractive should it be to them? You must know that the name of the Three Great Avenues Temple is very useful outside.
If you want to join, it's as simple as paying a membership fee. This membership fee is not much, and it is definitely something they can afford. But after joining the meeting, in addition to the regular discussion meetings and trade fairs, there will also be irregular XX meetings, and you will have to pay another fee. Of course, it's okay not to come, all the qiē activities of the exchange meeting are voluntary, as long as you can stand the temptation - for example, the Xuanyuan Guan Shangyuan disciple sword cultivation XX talks about how to cultivate the sword, such an exchange meeting, how many people can bear it?
While admiring Ji Wu's whimsy, Lingyu reminded him: "Senior Brother Ji has to grasp this degree well, there are some things that cannot be passed on. ”
Ji Wu patted his chest and promised: "Senior Sister Cheng, don't worry, I'll do something, when have you ever been on a business trip?" What can be said and what cannot be said, I know! Even if I don't know, there are a few brothers and sisters who check for me, right? ”
"And what about you? It's for you? She joked.
Ji Wudao: "Senior sister is too humble, how dare you bother with such a trivial matter?" With your talent, senior sister, you can refine qi at the age of fifteen at the third level, and you are still a sword cultivator, so I naturally look for you to support the scene! How about it, do you give this face to your junior brother? ”
Lingyu pondered for a moment and said, "Uncle Liu is strict, I don't have much time, you know." ”
"Don't worry, it won't take up a lot of your time, senior sister."
Lingyu thought about it again and again, and finally agreed. This Senior Brother Ji is a money-making material, maybe he can really make a fortune, and when the time comes, it will be good for her to follow a little light.
