Since many years ago, Zhang Zhixuan has sent a large number of sect monks to explore the mines.

The Zhang family of Tiantai Peak is his closest force, and he will naturally make great efforts to support his decision-making and implement it from top to bottom without discounting.

After more than 20 years and countless manpower and material resources, the Zhang family monks finally hit the big luck and discovered a spiritual stone vein.

The location of this spiritual stone vein is still in the wilderness, more than 20,000 miles away from Lushan County, and twice as far away as the Chaoyin Mountain spiritual stone mine.

The location of the Lingshi Mine is in Lushan County, which is not too far from the vast sea, and it can save a lot of costs by taking the waterway.

The barren mountain where the Lingshi Mine is located originally had no name, but it was named Jinxialing by the Zhangjia monks because of the Jinxia Radiation in the early morning.

Zhang Zerui, who was in charge of the family, received the news that he was not as greedy as Ma Jimin back then, rashly mining veins and stealing spirit stones.

Instead, he hurried to Qingxuanzong and reported the matter to Qingchan for a decision.

Zhang Zhixuan had just come out of the customs, and after receiving the news, he immediately took Zhang Zerui to Jinxialing with Qingchan.

There are more than ten Zhang family monks near Jinxialing, and the first one is Zhang Xianteng, who has built the third layer of the foundation.

This person is a prospector trained by the Zhang family, he has an ugly appearance, dark skin, and a pair of attractive ears, and he is naturally hearing.

It was his meticulous and thoughtful exploration of the terrain that discovered the anomalies of Jinxia Ridge. At his insistence, the Zhang family monks excavated this barren mountain for more than two years before they mined the spirit stone.

The discovery of this spiritual stone mine can be said to have made the first contribution.

Zhang Zhixuan didn't think he was ugly, and patted him on the shoulder happily and said: "You have made the first contribution to the discovery of the spirit stone mine this time, and when you go back, Zerui will reward you heavily." ”

Under the leadership of Zhang Xianteng, everyone entered the gloomy and damp mine.

The cave meanders, and special torches are lit every few dozen steps.

This kind of torch uses low-grade Xuanyang wood, which can be burned for days and nights.

After the Zhang family controlled the spiritual vein of Liucheng, they increased the planting of Xuanyang wood. Every year, tens of thousands of Xuanyang trees are produced.

This low-level spirit wood has flowed into the mortal world in large quantities. The officials and nobles of the mortal world, the innate monks, will even use Xuanyang wood for heating and lighting.

As the mine cavern got deeper and deeper, a trace of aura seeped out from the mine.

Zhang Zhixuan used his divine sense to sweep and found that there were occasionally one or two lower-grade spirit stones hidden in the depths of the rock wall, looking at the density of the distribution of the spirit stones in this vein, it was not as good as the Chaoyin Mountain Mine.

Although Qing Chan's formation water product did not return to the level of the previous life, it also reached the fifth order upper grade.

She took a turn in the mine, and then kept taking out the array flags and hitting Jinxia Ridge. Exploration of the scope of the Lingshi mine and determination of the trend of the leylines. As the exploration drew to a close, a smile appeared on her face.

"How's that, isn't the vein a lot of scope?"

Qing Chan nodded and said: "Brother Zhixuan guessed right, although the distribution of spirit stones is thinner than that of Chaoyin Mountain, the range is much larger than that of Chaoyin Mountain's spirit stone mine. According to my estimates, according to the mining intensity of Chaoyin Mountain, it can be mined for at least 2,000 years. Because of the large extent of the vein, it is possible to take the method of multi-head excavation. Looking at the nearby terrain, there is enough for 200,000 people to open a mine for construction. Once on the right track, the number of spirit stones mined in a year can reach about 50,000.

However, there are many things to prepare in advance, especially when it comes to security. Jinxia Ridge is already on the edge of the Southern Wilderness, and if you cultivate a fourth-order spirit vein, you won't be able to stop the Demon King from prying eyes. Cultivating a fifth-order spiritual vein and arranging for a Jindan stage monk to sit in charge is simply not enough to rely on the Qingxuanzong family alone. ”

Mining the spirit stone mine requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and even if Qingxuanzong's strength has increased greatly now, it is still difficult to mobilize 200,000 people from the mountain gate to Jinxialing.

Moreover, the Zhang family spent a lot of manpower and material resources in order to prospect for minerals, and it was not suitable to leave them alone.

Zhang Zhixuan thought for a moment and said: "If you don't solve the Qingtong Demon King, it is not possible to arrange the fourth-order spiritual veins at all, once the Demon King attacks, relying on the Purple Mansion monks will not be able to guard the mountain gate at all." I think it's better to let the Heavenly Toad Cave and the Huanshui Sect participate, cultivate the fifth-order spirit vein, arrange the teleportation array, and then occupy a part of the shares. ”

Recently, Zhang Zhixuan has been quietly integrating the three forces.

Qinglihai's Void Stygian Stone vein has extremely high returns, and it is also divided equally by the three cases.

The proceeds of killing low-level ghost cultivators in the Evil Ghost Cave will also give a share to the Heavenly Toad Cave.

Although Jinxia Ridge is the territory of Qingxuanzong, without the support of Tianchan Cave and Huanshui Sect, it still can't stop the Demon King and Yang Xuanzhen.

Qingchan pondered for a moment and said: "That's fine, I'll go to Gu Yan and ask her to take out a spirit stone, and you go to the Huanshui Sect to find Yunfeng." Tiantai Peak's side just occupies the remaining 10% of the shares. ”

To cultivate a fifth-order spirit vein, you need to invest millions of spirit stones. The arrangement of the teleportation array to communicate with Qingyang Mountain and Lingjing Mountain also requires an investment of more than 200,000 yuan. In addition, the construction of the mountain gate of the main hall and the arrangement of the defense array, a total of more than 1.4 million spirit stones need to be invested, and some of them will also need to be invested in cultivating spiritual fields and planting elixirs in the future.

Even if they occupy one-tenth of the shares, the Zhang family needs to take out 150,000 spirit stones at one time.

This number is also a headache for Tiantai Peak.

A few years ago, the Zhang family saved tens of thousands of spirit stones, but unfortunately in order to exchange for Zhuji Dan, the treasury savings were exhausted.

In recent years, there have only been 30,000 spirit stones saved in the family treasury.

If you want to buy shares, I am afraid that you still need to mobilize the strength of the clansmen and apportion.

Zhang Zerui has just taken charge of the family, and he is going to make a big deal of apportionment, which is afraid that his prestige will be seriously damaged.

Seeing Zhang Zerui's depressed face, Zhang Zhixuan laughed heartily and said: "You don't have to be too anxious, there are no spirit stones at home, can't you borrow a little from the Wu family and the Liu family?" Although Tiantai Peak has made a fortune, it should still move around more with its old neighbors in Hongo. Now that we are prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, as long as we give a good interest, the Wu family and the Liu family will still help each other. If a family borrows twenty or thirty thousand spirit stones, the burden on your body can be a little easier.

In addition, Xianlong, Ziqing, Ruizhen, and Ruibao are not short of spirit stones in their hands, as long as you can pull your face, each person will lend you 35,000, and you can bear a part, plus Sihong and Lan Niang must also do their best, our three Jindan monks can also support you 30,000, and the monks in the foundation building period at home can make up enough capital to buy shares. ”

After pointing out Zhang Zerui, Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan soldiers split into two ways, Zhang Zhixuan went to Huanshui Sect, and Qingchan went to find Liu Lingjun.

Although Liu Lingjun consumed eight or nine spirit stones in her hand, she was a Yuanying monk, and her emaciated camel was bigger than a horse, and more than 400,000 spirit stones were easily taken out, without a trace of embarrassment on her face.

The Huanshui Sect has invested a large number of spirit stones to cultivate the spirit veins of the Demon Cave for more than twenty years, and the treasury has been exhausted many years ago.

In the past twenty years, the Zongmen Mansion Treasury has only accumulated more than 100,000 scattered spirit stones. In order to invest in the spirit stone mine, Chen Yunfeng gritted his teeth and sold some precious cultivation resources to the vassal family, and only then did he collect more than 400,000 shares.
