Chapter 165: Settling in (Asking for Subscription)
"Contemplation of the Heart!" Chu Yun looked at the words on the courtyard door and nodded with satisfaction.
These words were written by himself, and Qi Jie took them back and asked the craftsman to engrave them, and placed them on the lintel.
This courtyard is relatively large, at least twice as large as Qingyue Villa, and the courtyard inside is divided into three entrances, the first is the place where Chu Yun has daily meetings or guests, the second is the place where Chu Yun, Yu'er, and Xishuang rest, and the third is the place where alchemy and martial arts are practiced.
As for the guest rooms and the houses where the servants lived, they were not considered in this courtyard, because this courtyard of Chu Yun was part of the entire Xuanyue Mountain Villa, and the Xuanyue Mountain Villa had a special place to receive guests or serve the servants to live.
At the same time, there is another point in the small building that Qingyue Villa does not have, that is, it has an underground secret room.
The function of this underground secret room is to store some valuable things, mainly pills, medicinal herbs and other things. Therefore, it was also specially treated with moisture protection when it was built.
After Chu Yun walked around the courtyard for a long time, he nodded with satisfaction.
As for Yu'er, the two maids, they happily went to arrange for Chu Yun and his bedroom. As Chu Yun's personal maids, Chu Yun's bedroom is naturally taken care of by them.
After Yu'er and the two left, Hu Tiecheng also left, he was still busy teaching his disciples to practice martial arts, while Chu Yun and Qi Jie sat down in a small reception room outside to discuss the affairs of the villa.
"Qi Jie, what's the situation on Xun Hanyun's side now?" After Chu Yun sat down, he immediately asked.
Qi Jie said: "The third child has basically made out the dark halls in various places these days, and there is a shop in every county in the entire Shu region, a total of 182. There are restaurants, tea shops, and green houses. On the surface, these shops are all opened by ordinary merchants, and outsiders can't see any subtleties. The people in charge of these shops are basically people from the original cottage, and they are very loyal to the owner and the villa. Moreover, these shops are connected to the villa in a single line, and even if one of them is exposed, the rest of the places will not be exposed. This will also ensure the safety of the entire Darkmoon Order. The only thing that is more troublesome now is messaging, which lags a bit behind due to manpower. ”
Chu Yun nodded, it was already commendable to be able to spread the stall in half a year.
"You have selected people with flexible minds in the villa to form an assessment team and secretly assess these dark halls. Once they are qualified, they will begin to develop their downline, and funding will not be a problem, as long as we can let our eyes be distributed in every corner of Shudi. This part of the downline is only responsible for each dark hall and belongs to the peripheral members of Xuanyue. ”
Qi Jie immediately nodded.
Chu Yun continued: "Are there any problems in the development of the villa now? ”
Qi Jie said: "There are no other problems, but there are still fewer martial arts cheats in the villa now. The subordinates have instructed the third brother to buy some basic or junior cheats in various places, but it is not easy to get intermediate or high-level cheats. ”
Chu Yun was suddenly silent, the number of cheats in a force is related to the foundation of the sect.
For the vast majority of people, there are not many martial arts suitable for cultivation, such as some have unique talents in swordsmanship, and some have made rapid progress in hidden weapons. Therefore, if a force wants to develop and grow, it must have all kinds of martial arts secrets, just like the Qingcheng faction.
"I'll find a way to deal with cheats, I have also refined a lot of pills during this time, and it shouldn't be a big problem to trade some Jianghu martial arts cheats with some strength." Chu Yun said.
Qi Jie suddenly said: "Owner, my subordinates have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible." ”
"You say."
"My subordinates think that with the current situation of our villa, we can build some auction houses in the rivers and lakes, so that we can not only sell the elixir you have refined, but also allow some people in the rivers and lakes to send treasures to our auction house to sell. This can not only create some wealth for us, but more importantly, allow us to find and buy treasures in the first place. Qi Jie said.
Chu Yun paused for a moment and said, "You tell me your thoughts in detail." ”
Qi Jie saw that Chu Yun was very interested in this, so he immediately stopped hesitating and said all his thoughts about this matter during this time.
In fact, there are already many auction houses in the rivers and lakes, and some of them are even very large.
But what these auction houses have in common is that there are very few branches, even the Arhat Auction House, which is affiliated with the Shaolin Temple, has only two branches.
It is understandable that these auction houses do not have branches, after all, the treasures that can be used for auction are all precious things. Not to mention a county, it is a state land, and there are only a few treasures that can be sold every year. If an auction house is built in every state, it is definitely a waste of manpower and material resources.
On the other hand, the dispersion of auction houses will also lead to the dispersion of customers, which may result in some truly valuable items not being able to sell at a higher price.
Now Qi Jie's idea is different, and he plans to build an auction house in every state, but the operation mode of this auction house is different from that of other auction houses. In addition to precious treasures, ordinary and valuable things can also be put into the auction house.
These items are not auctioned individually, but are placed on the counter and are priced by the customer, whichever is the highest within a certain period of time.
At the same time, the precious treasures collected by these auction houses are auctioned in a centralized manner.
In other words, the auction houses currently existing in the rivers and lakes are more inclined to the high-end market, while Qi Jie pays more attention to the low-end market and takes into account the high-end market.
Once the reputation of the auction house is spread, there will be many people who are willing to send treasures to their auction house.
For other newly built auction houses, it was not easy to make a reputation, but for Chu Yun, it was just a matter of a few pills.
Chu Yun frowned slightly, he was thinking about the pros and cons, and after a while, Chu Yun said: "This method is feasible, but it has to be gradual!" We're still a little too weak now. If you expose yourself completely, I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe. ”
"My subordinates understand!" Qi Jie said, "This is something that my subordinates have considered, we can only auction some level 4 and 5 pills in the early stage, so that even if there are people in Zhou Tianjing who are interested in these pills, they will not be forcibly taken." As for the existence of the Tongmai Realm, we don't need to worry too much, with our three brothers, even if it is the existence of the peak of the Tongmai Realm, we can barely fight. ”
Chu Yun nodded, he was still a little silent in his heart, although his development was already very fast, but compared to those big forces in the rivers and lakes, he was still too weak.
Especially now that chaos in the rivers and lakes is about to arise, if you don't have enough strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to even protect yourself, Chu Yun couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency in his heart.
Subsequently, Chu Yun discussed with Qi Jie for a while, and finally instructed Qi Jie to arrange personnel to go to Gongzhou City and take his parents and Liu Lao to live in the villa, and of course Dongfang Zhuo.
After Qi Jie left, Chu Yun began to think.
He was thinking about a question related to the future direction of Xuanyue Villa, Xuanyue Villa, is it necessary to show it to the world now?
Secretly developing naturally has the advantages of secretly developing, and the so-called big wind is a big blow, and the forces that suddenly emerge are easy to be suppressed by other forces.
But the reverse is also true, and it is easier to accumulate contacts and make friends with some strengths, which is also more beneficial to future development.
After thinking about it a lot, Chu Yun couldn't make up his mind, so he decided to put this matter on hold for the time being, and make a decision when he needed to make a decision.
Anyway, no one knows about Xuanyue Villa now, even in Gongzhou County, no one knows that there is such a Xuanyue Villa. This place is indeed too remote, although a road has been built to lead directly to the official road, but who has nothing to do and run dozens of miles to the end of the official road to see what is here?
Next, Chu Yun meditated in his practice room, and after recovering his spirit, he came to the courtyard.
A sharp whistle sounded from Chu Yun's mouth, and within a few breaths, a huge golden figure fell from the sky and landed in the courtyard.
This is exactly what Kim is.
"You're spiritual, you haven't gotten lost." Chu Yun teased its feathers playfully and said with a smile.
"Woo ......"
"Childe, this ......" The two figures quickly rushed in from the outside, but it was Qi Jie and Hu Tiecheng. They also saw a giant bird rushing into Chu Yun's courtyard in the distance, and rushed over to rescue them in fear.
Chu Yun said: "This is a rare bird that I received not long ago, and it will often haunt Xuanyue Peak in the future, so you don't need to panic." ”
Qi Jie and the others suddenly realized this, and then admired Chu Yun even more, although they only looked at this golden eagle, they could also find its extraordinary, it is estimated that even if it is their own three brothers, they may not be able to resist this golden eagle.
Chu Yun naturally wouldn't say that this golden eagle already had the strength of the late stage or even the peak of the Zhou Tian Realm, otherwise they wouldn't have been hit hard!
After sending Qi Jie and the others away, Chu Yun touched the head of the golden eagle and said with a smile: "This will be your home from now on, and I will go to refine the detoxification pill for you in a while." ”
The golden eagle screamed happily twice, which was regarded as a fulfillment of what Chu Yun said.
Chu Yun came to the alchemy room, pretended to refine some pills, and then walked out. If it was just an ordinary bird, Chu Yun wouldn't need to do this, but who made the golden eagle's spiritual intelligence so high? If you let it know that you have deceived it, you may turn against yourself.
It's just that for himself, the chance of this kind of thing happening is zero, because except for himself, no one knows how much antidote pill he has on his body.
After two more antidote pills were given to the golden eagle, the Gu poison in the golden eagle's body was gone, and the feathers completely returned to golden yellow with a sound, making this guy can't help but fly into the air and rejoice a few times.
