373 Reunion after a long absence (asking for a monthly pass)
Coming out of the Invincible Peak, Li Feiyu originally wanted to invite Chen Ping to go to other peak masters for a spin, but Chen Ping refused.
Wei Sui slapped him away, and it made sense.
When I returned to Xiaozhufeng, as soon as I landed on the platform, I saw Yun Haitang running out with her skirt.
Standing at the door of the temple, looking at Chen Ping from a distance.
Smiling.
Then the red lips flattened, and the big eyes suddenly became moist.
Despite her best efforts, her expressionless face was full of emotion. Then he ran over without saying a word, and suddenly threw himself into Chen Ping's arms.
This is not the usual style of cloud begonias.
Even if she met again after a long absence, she came over to hug and hold hands and go into the house for a long talk.
Chen Ping hugged her who was trembling slightly, stroked her back, and said for a long time:
"Worried Madame."
Yun Haitang raised his head from Chen Ping's arms, wiped his eyes that had burst the embankment, looked up at Chen Ping slightly, and laughed out again:
"My husband is a real person in Jindan."
"Let's go, let's go into the house." Chen Ping wiped her tears and pulled her inside.
At the beginning, Chen Ping felt that she was not very worried when she went out.
She knows Chen Ping.
To perceive the great rivers and mountains to seek great insights is not to seize the treasure to find a great opportunity, with Chen Ping's cautious attitude, the probability of encountering fatal life danger may not be too great.
Especially 12 years ago, Yu Lingchun brought back the news that Chen Ping had a great understanding, as long as he went out with Xiyue, he would be married by Xiyue's protector.
After getting the news, her worries were reduced by more than half.
This is the best condition for knotting.
With the Xiyue Fairy Protector, even if the knot is unsuccessful, he can basically save a life.
And the message given by Yu Lingchun at that time was that as long as a few months, at most a year, Chen Ping might be able to come back from the wild forest.
But then things took a turn for the worse.
One year down, two years down, three years, four years Chen Ping has no news.
Not only that, but Xiyue, who is the first person in the Western Wilderness, has not had any news coming out.
For a Yuanying monk, it is actually normal to disappear for a few years, and some Yuanying may be in retreat for more than ten years.
The problem is that when Xiyue left, she said that she would come back in a few months.
For this reason, Yun Haitang frequently followed the caravan to Tianyan City, and even stayed in Tianyan City for a year during this period, but the news he got from Yu Lingchun was that there was no information yet.
This does not allow her to be in a hurry.
But the Wild Forest is so big, and no one knows what Xiyue and Chen Ping are going to do in the Wild Forest, even Yu Lingchun and Senior Sister Guan don't know yet, so Yun Haitang is helpless and can only wait quietly while constantly collecting news about the Wild Forest.
What's more, in the sixth year, without seeing Xiyue return, the head of the Tianyan Sect went to the Wild Forest.
Unfortunately, no valid information has been brought back.
Only wait.
"There are many monks who go to the Western Wilderness to venturize, and most of these monks use Tianyan City as one of the supply points, so there are always monks going back and forth. But after inquiry, no one had ever seen the Xiyue Fairy. I," Yun Haitang said this, and his voice was a little choked.
Chen Ping squeezed her hand in the palm of his hand and said lightly:
"There are many secret realms in the Savage Forest, and you may not be able to encounter any secret realm if you fall into one. Isn't that what that Daoist friend is? What can you find out if you ask like this? ”
"I know, but I can't help it. Really, while worrying about you, I have to pretend that there is nothing wrong to comfort Yu Lingchun." Yun Haitang is coquettish.
He lowered his head as if complaining, and rubbed his face, which was still with teardrops, on Chen Ping's shoulder.
deliberately rubbed tears onto Chen Ping's robe.
Yun Haitang is a very rational person, knowing that it is not a rational thing to enter the wild forest aimlessly, and even the head of the Tianyan Sect will return in vain, let alone what she can do.
Maybe it backfires.
So even if I'm worried, it's just a matter of asking all parties.
Didn't venture into the wild forest.
"It's okay now, they're all back." Chen Ping was amused by her childish approach.
"Where the hell have you been?" Yun Haitang's tone had a hint of blame.
Chen Ping shared what he encountered, thought about it, and in order to let her pay more attention, he also told her about the affairs of Canglan Grassland.
After listening, Yun Haitang was extremely emotional.
We talked about it for a while.
In the quiet room, the two had a long talk about the bits and pieces of the past 30 years, and then the two had a long discussion and in-depth exchange on the harmonious way of emotional release.
Because it involves theoretical research, and the difficulty of the argument is not small, Yun Haitang was once like sitting on pins and needles. Chen Ping is well versed in these academic theories.
But this is obviously not an easy job, so both of them ended up tired and down.
Late at night.
Yun Haitang pillowed on Chen Ping's arm and introduced Chen Ping's development to the Yun family over the years.
The Yun family's own disciples already had more than eighty people, and in addition, they had recruited a lot of loose cultivators and guest monks.
In terms of foundation building, in addition to Yun Haitang and Yun Lingshan, there are three other guest secretaries who are attached to the Yun family to build a foundation.
In addition to the Scattered Cultivation City, the Yun family originally operated a mine in the east, and the ore was mainly used for alchemy and refining, not spiritual ore.
Over the years, the Yun family has managed a large piece of spiritual land in the south. These spiritual fields are all cultivated with purple spiritual rice in Xing'an. Because the credit for this spiritual rice came from Chen Ping, the fertile spiritual field over there was handed over to the Yun family for management.
"Over the years, I have helped you withdraw the harvest spirit stones of Xiaozhu Peak, and I will give them to you tomorrow." When talking about the development of the Yun family, Yun Haitang mentioned.
"Hmm." Chen Ping hugged his daughter-in-law.
Thinking about how to make money.
Xiao Zhufeng's current income is mainly based on the income of butterfly spirits, evening primrose fruits, and some other spiritual materials of the same kind.
This is not bad in the foundation building phase.
But when it comes to Jindan Jiedan, many resources have become a lot more expensive, and this income is no longer enough.
We have to develop new ways to make money.
Do you want to learn the third-order talisman?
Of course you have to learn.
But drawing your own talismans can no longer be used as the main way to make money, and it is too time-consuming to do it yourself.
This is also the reason why there are very few third-order talisman masters and refiners.
When he reached the Jindan level, he was already a very rare monk in this continent, and he was all noble. It is enough to start a sect and establish a sect, and the worst is also a deputy head, peak master or great elder, the best way to make money with such a position is to develop the power and let the disciples make money, rather than doing everything themselves.
For example, Wei Sui, do you still need to draw talismans and refine tools to make money?
Not at all.
Even if they draw talismans, refine weapons, and arrange arrays, they do it for their own use, not for sale.
This is another reason why high-quality magic weapons are rarely found on the market.
"Pick a reliable monk in the Yun family who has a good talent for drawing talismans, and form a team. I'll teach them how to draw symbols. Chen Ping thought for a while.
In terms of several immortal cultivation families at the foot of the mountain, an important reason why the Yun family is not as good as the Liang family in the original Immortal Crane City is that they do not have their own core industry.
The Liang family's robe business is doing very well.
And the Yun family is more of a middleman to make the difference, even if it is to collect medicine or cultivate spiritual plants, they do not alchemize, but wholesale medicinal materials.
None of this makes much money.
Set up a team of core rune masters, form the Yun family's own characteristics, draw these runes to the extent that others can't do it, and let the caravans from the outside world take the initiative to come to the Yun family to get the goods.
… This is the long-term solution.
Yun Haitang was overjoyed when he heard this.
Hold a wisp of moist green silk behind your ear.
The corner of his mouth smiled slightly:
"After so many years, are you finally willing to meddle in the affairs of the Yun family? Of course it's good, I've been waiting for my husband's words. ”
"I've intervened before, okay." Chen Ping's old face flushed.
In fact, as the man who is the head of the Yun family, he has indeed rarely interfered in the affairs of the Yun family in the past so many years.
The main thing is that the strength is not enough.
I don't want to provoke too many fetters and get too much cause and effect.
But now it's different.
Now it is the second layer of Jindan cultivation, and it is almost an invincible existence in the Qingyun Domain. Even if there are several small sects in the surrounding area, there are no monks in the late stage of Jindan.
In this case, you can start relying on power for your own benefit, instead of going it alone all the time.
The Yun family is his most trusted force at the moment.
It is also a ready-to-use force.
Now that it has been decided, Chen Ping and Yun Haitang immediately made a total of this, and discussed it in terms of scale, talent quality, loyalty, and so on.
The next day, Yun Haitang left Xiaozhufeng to arrange this matter.
Chen Ping summoned Yun Feng halfway up the mountain.
Seeing Yun Feng again, Chen Ping couldn't help but be stunned for a moment... I haven't seen him for many years, and Yun Feng has gray hair and looks old.
Seeing Chen Ping's gaze, Yun Feng smiled easily:
"Thanks to the blessing of the peak master, the younger generation is more than 100 years old. can live to this age, even if it is a return, it is already considered to be the end of life, and the younger generation has no regrets. ”
seemed to be worried that Chen Ping would think too much, and hurriedly said:
"But don't worry, the younger generation should be strong and strong, and it will be no problem to live for another ten years."
Chen Ping bowed his head and motioned for him to sit down.
Say it this – 'no regrets', but when it comes to it, who wouldn't want to go further?
But whether you can feel a little and whether you can build a foundation is not something that you can get if you want to. For the vast majority of monks, it is not about hard work being rewarded.
Even others can't help much.
Otherwise, Yu Qingyi would not have taken risks back then.
"Xiao Zhufeng's current spiritual plant cultivation situation, you can talk about it in general terms." Chen Pingdao.
Over the years, Yunfeng has further expanded the area of the spiritual field under the mountainside by more than three times, and the current net profit of Butterfly Spirit Evening Primrose and some other spiritual materials has reached 40 high-grade spirit stones every year.
Considering that the ecology of Xiaozhufeng will not be damaged, it is not suitable to further expand the cultivated area.
In addition, some rare tree families in the back mountain, Lingzhi Yunfeng, also reported one by one, including the value and planting of various spirit trees.
"Peak Master, regarding the cultivation of spiritual materials, the junior has a proposal." Yun Feng hesitated.
"You speak."
Yun Feng hurriedly said:
"In addition to specializing in the cultivation of butterfly spirit evening primrose in recent years, the younger generation has also tried to cultivate a lot of medicinal materials that are sensitive to water quality, and have some experience and results. Keling planting pays attention to winning by quantity, and the current planting area of Xiaozhufeng is still too small. The younger generation proposed to reclaim wasteland outside the city, for example, the current Yun family's land to plant Xing'an Lingmi in the south is not bad. As long as the planting area is expanded, it is clear that more benefits will be obtained at that time. ”
That's fine.
But there is a good trade-off.
If you want to go outside the city to plant spiritual materials on a large scale, the first thing to solve is the problem of water quality and water source.
At least one more pair of Mu Red Carp must be cultivated.
"Let me think about this and discuss it later." Chen Ping thought for a moment and said.
"Yes."
After communicating for a while, before finally leaving, Chen Ping saw that Yun Feng wanted to speak and stopped, and asked:
"Is there anything else going on with the cloud director?"
Hearing this, Yun Feng smiled awkwardly and said:
"The younger generation has a private matter, but, just, I don't know if I should talk about it?"
"You speak." Chen Ping didn't know what was going on with Yun Feng.
Yun Feng hurriedly said:
"A few years ago, the younger generation knew that there was no hope of building a foundation, so he married a lady, and now he has a son and a daughter. The daughter was taken by her mother to work in Yunfu. The younger son, however, is quite competitive and is quite talented in spiritual plant cultivation. Therefore, the younger generation has always taken him with him, and now he is twenty-one years old. ”
"I'm afraid that the younger generation will no longer be able to serve the peak master for many years. I wonder if the younger dog will be fortunate enough to continue to share the burden for the peak master? Oh, by the way, that kid's name is Yunshan. If the peak master does not dislike it, the younger generation can wait for the peak master to bring it up to visit the peak master when he is free. ”
Chen Ping understood it.
Yun Feng is seeking a way out for his son.
And it's not just a chance to stay on Xiaozhufeng, looking at his appearance, he actually hopes to inherit his father's business.
Chen Ping doesn't care about this, the point is that the level is enough.
Not only the level of spiritual plant cultivation, but also the level of management.
"Noted down. Let him work hard first, whether he can even be qualified for the position of supervisor mainly depends on his ability, and everything else is secondary. Chen Ping didn't say anything to death.
"Thank you, Peak Master." Yun Feng said excitedly.
From Chen Ping's words, he heard that Chen Ping did not exclude the fact that both generations of his father and son had served here.
As for the ability that Chen Ping said, this was very reasonable in Yun Feng's opinion, and he hurriedly said:
"Rest assured, this kid has no other skills, and it is absolutely no problem to cultivate spiritual plants, and his talent is stronger than that of his juniors. As for the ability of the imperial assistant management, the younger generation still has time to train him. If he really doesn't have the ability at that time, the juniors will never be embarrassed to mention half a word more in front of the peak master. ”
"Go ahead." Chen Ping bowed.
"Then don't disturb the peak master, the juniors will leave."
……
After Yun Feng left, Chen Ping returned to the quiet room, poured out all the spirit stone raw ore brought back from the Canglan Grassland, and piled it up in the quiet room.
Then he took out the spirit stone given by Yun Haitang and cleaned it up.
A total of 1,050 high-grade spirit stones.
This is Xiao Zhufeng's income in the past thirty years, including the sect reward of Xing'an Lingmi.
Attached to the bag is a booklet with some record details.
The income is mainly the income of the butterfly spirit evening primrose.
'Huh? ’
'The income of the Yunjia Mine and the Purple Rice Lingtian, Yun Haitang actually allocates some profits to me every year? ’
'Shhh ’
'This...'
'No wonder there are still more than 1,050 top-grade spirit stones left. ’
Chen Ping took a look, and this part of the profit was given to 30 high-grade spirit stones every year.
That's not a small amount.
The Yun family's mine and Lingtian are essentially from the Lingxiao Sect, not the Yun family, the Yun family is just in escrow, and the income allocated to the Yun family in the end will not be too much.
Moreover, the Yun family has a big business, and there are many places that need to be spent, just giving him alone is 30 high-grade spirit stones per year. In fact, he didn't do anything.
He put the spirit stone into the storage bag and continued to look at the booklet.
In terms of expenses, it is mainly the cost of purchasing, cultivating and nourishing some rare spirit trees on the mountain behind Xiaozhufeng.
This cost is not small, and almost all of the income from the Butterfly Spirit Evening Primrose is put into it.
Chen Ping closed the booklet.
Counting the remaining spirit stones before, he now has 1,071 top-grade spirit stones and 1,623 medium-grade spirit stones in his hand.
At the same time, I calculated the current annual income for myself:
The income of the spirit plant is about 40 high-grade spirit stones per year.
Yunjia Mine and Lingmi earn 30 high-grade spirit stones per year.
A total of 70 high-grade spirit stones are earned every year.
It's not much, really.
Fortunately, the spirit tree in the back mountain has taken shape, and there is no need to invest a lot of money.
We have to continue to open source.
