Chapter 267: Teach by example!
"What did you think about the news I had someone pass on to you?"
"Do you accept my conditions and become a vassal of my Zhou family, or give up the oasis and find another place!"
In the cave, Zhou Yang's eyes were golden and red, and his eyes returned to black and white, looking at the five foundation building monks, and asked directly about the choice of the five people in a low voice.
When he learned that the three medium-sized oases attached to the Red Tiger Mountain were occupied by scattered cultivators, he gave these people two choices.
Either surrender to the Zhou family, pay 30% of the output of Lingshan to the Zhou family every year, and obey the Zhou family's dispatch to do things.
Or just pack everything up in three years, roll up and leave.
Now that three years have passed, it's time for these five to give him a letter.
Hearing Zhou Yang's question, Guo Shaoyang and the other five people glanced at each other, and then Guo Shaoyang, who had reached the eighth layer of the foundation by cultivation, arched his hand and replied: "Thank you seniors for your tolerance and give me three years to think about it, after careful consideration and deliberation in these three years, I have decided to surrender to the Zhou family, and I am willing to be a vassal of the Zhou family!"
"But the juniors are bold, and they want to ask the seniors to agree to a small request from the juniors and others. ”
The joy that had just risen in Zhou Yang's eyes immediately reined in because of Guo Shaoyang's last words, and he looked at a few people with a look of joy and anger on his face and said lightly: "Oh, you still have requirements? What are your requirements? Let's talk about it first!"
Ma Shaoyang heard that he did not refuse directly, and his heart was overjoyed, and after hearing the words at this time, he hurriedly responded: "The requirements of the seniors Mingjian, the juniors and others are very simple, that is, the juniors and others heard that the seniors are good at refining, and the seniors' wives and fathers are good at alchemy, and they want to exchange spirit stones and spiritual objects for the seniors for some magic weapons and pills suitable for our practice." ”
"What a great thing my Tao is, it turns out to be such a thing!"
"It's easy to say about this matter, as long as you don't have two hearts in the future, and serve the Zhou family loyally, my Zhou family can take out a copy of the third-order magic weapon, spirit pill, and spirit rune to sell to you. ”
Zhou Yang's face softened, and he smiled and agreed to Ma Shaoyang's request on the spot.
After speaking, he paused again, and said in a loud voice: "In addition, you might as well spread the news to your former casual cultivation friends, just say that my Zhou family will establish an immortal cultivator workshop market on the Chihu Mountain Oasis in a few years, and then there will be all kinds of treasures that are usually rare to take out and sell, and Daoists from all over the world are welcome to come and cheer!"
The establishment of Fang City is a plan that Zhou Yang has long had in his heart.
There is no doubt about the importance of the Fang market to a force.
The establishment of a fang market can not only sit on the ground to extract taxes to take the "poll tax" and sell and rent shops for profit, but also maximize the profits of the sale of excess spiritual objects in the power, and give priority to the acquisition of spiritual objects obtained in the hands of loose cultivators.
In short, there are too many benefits of establishing a fang market, so much so that as long as it is a cultivator family, they all want to establish a fang market to increase the family's income.
However, it is clear that not everyone can build a fang market.
A fang market, in addition to having the power to protect the fang market, can make people feel at ease to do transactions in the market.
The most important thing is that there should be enough attractive treasures in the city.
If a fang market can use spirit stones to buy various treasures such as spirit pills, magic weapons, and spirit runes commonly used by immortal cultivators, then the popularity of this fang market will definitely not be too bad.
On the other hand, if there are very few treasures available for people to buy in the Fang Market, and they are all mediocre, then there are few immortal cultivators who are willing to travel thousands of miles to come to the Fang Market to trade.
It is precisely with these requirements that in the entire Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, only the Purple Mansion Family is qualified to establish Fang City.
The Zhou family has now been promoted to the Zifu family, and has a third-order existence in the hundred arts of cultivating immortals such as Dan, Qi, and Fu, so they naturally have the qualifications and conditions to establish Fang City.
According to Zhou Yang's plan, as long as Zhou Guangxiang is successfully promoted to a third-order formation mage and has the ability to arrange a third-order formation, he will find a suitable place to build a Fang City on the Chihu Mountain Oasis, and then send a wide invitation to invite monks from all walks of life to come to participate in his Purple Mansion celebration, and by the way, build momentum for the opening of Fang City.
"Great! If you can establish a Fang City on the Chihu Mountain Oasis, there will definitely be many casual cultivators who are willing to come here and attach themselves!"
Ma Shaoyang and the others were overjoyed, and agreed to Zhou Yang's request without thinking about it.
If an Immortal Cultivator Fang Market can be opened up on the Chihu Mountain Oasis, the Zhou family will certainly be the biggest beneficiary, followed by those of them who have decided to attach themselves to the Zhou family, and of course they don't have any reason not to support this.
In order to let these people work hard to help publicize this matter, Zhou Yangdang even took out some third-order magic weapons, spirit pills, spirit runes and made a deal with the three of them.
Anyway, in addition to the elixir, there are many things on his body that can be said to be inexhaustible, who is he not selling them to?
After Ma Shaoyang and the other five people left with a satisfied thousand thanks, Zhou Guangxiang, who had been watching from the side, finally spoke.
"Uncle Nine, wouldn't you be too good at these five loose cultivators?"
"Those oases and Lingshan were originally assigned to our Zhou family by Huangshamen, even if we drove them away, they didn't dare not leave, and outsiders couldn't find any reason to accuse our Zhou family. ”
"What do you mean by you wanting them to be used by my Zhou family, my nephew understands, but we only take thirty percent of their income, isn't it too cheap for them? Not to mention that you also took out so many third-order treasures that were not common on the market and sold them to them!"
While saying the doubts in his heart, he looked at Zhou Yang with a seeking gaze, wanting Zhou Yang to solve his doubts.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but smile and said, "Hehehe, so Guangxiang, you still need to experience!"
"That's right, I can indeed drive Ma Shaoyang away, but you must know that they have been active and living around the Chihu Mountain Oasis for dozens or hundreds of years, and have accumulated a deep reputation in the scattered cultivation circles of the surrounding immortal cultivation world, if our Zhou family just moved to the Chihu Mountain Oasis and drove these people away, how would those scattered cultivators think of us?"
"I know, you will say that it doesn't matter what they think of us, anyway, our Zhou family is a cultivator family, and it is naturally not in the same camp as the scattered cultivators. ”
"But think about it, if we want to establish a Fang City, who will be the main source of customers? Are they the monks of the various immortal cultivation families who are thousands of miles away from Chihu Mountain, or those scattered cultivators who are hunting demons nearby and looking for spiritual objects?"
"Now instead of driving away Ma Shaoyang and a few people, I will generously reward those oases and spiritual mountains to them, and support them to accept apprentices and establish a family for development. ”
"After those low-level casual cultivators heard the news, they would also understand that our Zhou family is not the same as those families who discriminate and suppress scattered cultivators, and they are more willing to do business with our Zhou family. ”
Zhou Yang taught the successor he had chosen, and his voice was low and long, which made people impress and forget it when they heard it.
After he finished talking about the reason, he looked serious again, and said to the thoughtful Zhou Guangxiang in a deep voice: "Guangxiang, you have to remember that our Zhou family is different from before, in the past, our family had few villains, and for the rapid growth of the family, you can only focus on interests and not care about reputation." ”
"But now our Zhou family is already a big family, and it has become a famous big family in the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, so when you people act in the future, you must pay attention to maintaining the reputation of the family, and the sustainable benefits brought by a good reputation are not comparable to those oases with little potential and Lingshan!"
"This matter, when the family meeting is held, I will emphasize it to all the monks of the clan, so that everyone can remember this!"
When Zhou Guangxiang heard his words, his expression turned grim, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Thank you for Uncle Jiu's teachings, my nephew must remember Uncle Jiu's teachings today, and he will definitely take the reputation of the family as the most important thing in his actions in the future, and never damage the reputation of our Zhou family!"
"It's good that you understand, but Uncle Nine has one more thing to teach you, reputation is important, but you must not let the family monks be wronged when they have conflicts and disputes with outsiders for the sake of fame!"
"It is true that we want to maintain the reputation of the family, but what needs to be maintained more is the unity and cohesion of the family!"
"Outsiders are always outsiders, they can only share wealth and prosperity, not hardship!"
"Only people who have the same bloodline as us, and only people who share weal and woe with the interests of our entire Zhou family, can truly be worthy of our trust and trust. ”
"As the ruler of the family, we can't treat our own clansmen badly, don't let those clansmen who have shed blood and sweat for the family be cold to the family!"
Zhou Yang got up and walked in front of Zhou Guangxiang, stretched out his hand and gently patted this nephew's shoulder, with a solemn expression, and told this nephew his philosophy.
Treat the family heroes well, this is what Zhou Yang has always insisted on, and the various incentives he has formulated are to reward those who have made contributions to the family.
Because of these, he was able to accumulate such a high prestige in the clan, and so many clansmen would love and worship him.
Those who benefited from his measures were his staunchest supporters in the family, and they all believed that following him, the patriarch, there would be meat to eat, wine to drink, and money to take.
It is precisely because these people believe that he will not harm them and his family, that every time he puts forward some unprecedented reform proposals, everyone is willing to implement what he says, regardless of whether they understand it or not.
Although Zhou Guangxiang still doesn't understand the truth very well, out of admiration and admiration for Zhou Yang, he still nodded vigorously and said: "Nephew understands, you must remember Uncle Jiu's teachings today, or dare not forget!"
"It's good that you understand, but don't worry, you are still young, and you still have a lot of time to learn how to be a qualified patriarch, Uncle Jiu, I also came here at the beginning when the old patriarch taught me the next step!"
Zhou Yang nodded, and also smiled at his original experience and comforted this nephew.
