Chapter 385: The Millennial Plan!
Two years later, on an inconspicuous sandy ground in the vast sea of sand, a cyan giant building ship suddenly flew in.
After the boat flew to its destination, it fell into the air, unloading all the more than 100 monks loaded inside, and then a young man in a pale golden robe raised his hand and put it into a storage ring.
The young man was none other than Zhou Yang, and the monks he had brought here on an empty boat were all monks of the Shuimu and Wood Exercises specially hired and recruited by the Zhou family to create a new oasis.
"Elder Taishang, this is the place, digging down three hundred zhang from here, there will be groundwater gushing, and there will be underground rivers in the depths. ”
Zhou Yang's side, Huang Yi, who came with him, waited for him to put away the magic weapon, and hurriedly pointed to the sand below to introduce the situation to him.
Five years ago, Huang Yi received the task given to him by Zhou Yang to go to Rhino Horn Island to explore the way, and buried the "Yuan Magnetic Traction Array" all the way to the water source.
Five years later, after hard work, he finally lived up to Zhou Yang's trust, successfully depicted a detailed road map, and then returned to the Chihu Mountain Oasis with his results to hand over to Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang also did what he said, after he came back, when he gave him a Tsukidan, and then recruited him as a guide, leading the Zhou family's oasis construction team to go deep into the sand sea to build an oasis.
And where they are now is the first water source point to Rhino Horn Island marked by Huang Yi.
This place is more than 5,000 miles away from the nearest oasis in the boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm, and there is a vast yellow sand in all directions, and there is not a trace of green, which is a real forbidden area for life.
"Guangxiang, you have also heard Huang Daoyou's words, how important this is to create an oasis, you already know that you must do a good job in this matter, do it as soon as possible, and if you need anything, you can report it like a family!"
Zhou Yang's gaze retracted from the sandy land that Huang Yi pointed to, and explained to Zhou Guangxiang beside him with a straight face.
Zhou Guangxiang was the only monk of the Zhou family who practiced the wood system of exercises among several foundation building monks, and Zhou Yang had asked her to lead the water and wood system of the two system of exercises recruited by the Zhou family a few years ago to use the spiritual veins of Haoyang Mountain as a pilot to try to summarize the methods of quickly creating a new oasis.
Now, after several years, their team has summed up a set of effective and good methods after many experiments.
At this time, hearing Zhou Yang's explanation, Zhou Guangxiang's snowy and pretty face suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly responded: "Please rest assured that Uncle Jiu, my niece will definitely build this new oasis as quickly as possible!"
"Well, let's build the spirit vein first!"
Zhou Yang bowed slightly, but he gave an order to the two Zhou family array mages who followed on the side.
Since the Zhou family produced Zhou Guangxiang, a third-order array mage, it has been much easier to cultivate formation mages than before, coupled with the fact that the Zhou family's population and financial income have continued to rise over the years, it is no longer difficult to cultivate a few more formation mages.
Now, in addition to Zhou Guangxiang, who has been successfully promoted to a third-order mid-grade array mage, the Zhou family also has three second-order array mages and four first-order array mages.
To create a new oasis this time, Zhou Yang specially transferred two second-order array mages to help arrange the spirit gathering array and build artificial spirit veins.
On the map that Huang Yi brought back, there were a total of twenty-five water source nodes, which meant that the Zhou family needed to build twenty-five artificial oases and artificial spirit veins on these twenty-five water source nodes.
According to Zhou Yang's plan, each artificial oasis should be at least three million acres in size, and there should be at least one second-order high-grade artificial spirit vein.
Only when the area of the oasis is large enough can it resist the erosion of sandstorms, and only when it has a spiritual vein can it arrange a formation and send monks to garrison it.
This plan Zhou Yang named it "New Home Project", as the name suggests, he wants to open up a new home for the Zhou family and the monks of the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm through this plan.
According to his plan, the Zhou family will continue to invest millions of spirit stones in this plan, and build twenty-five oases on the map at the rate of one oasis in three years, and artificially build a "road of life" to the Rhino Horn Continent.
The Rhino Horn Continent is far away from the current range of activities of the immortal cultivators, and if such an oasis passage is not created, even if the Zhou family occupies the Rhino Horn Continent, it can only be regarded as an enclave, and it cannot be completely occupied and developed.
And through Zhou Yang's plan, with the twenty-five artificial oases as a link, connecting the Rhino Horn Continent with the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm, ordinary Qi cultivation period cultivators can also go to the Rhino Horn Continent for adventures through constant transfers.
Yes, adventure.
Originally, Zhou Yang and Cao Wenjin reached an agreement that except for those oases transferred to the Zhou family by Huangshamen, the Zhou family would definitely not occupy any oasis to which Huangshamen belonged, not even those vassal family oases.
In this way, it actually locked the future development of the Zhou family and put an end to the possibility of the Zhou family becoming a giant like Huangshamen.
But this convention is not without its loopholes.
The loophole is actually obvious, that is, the oasis and the vast sand sea that are not under the rule of Huangshamen, as long as the Zhou family can develop and occupy it, they can develop it to their heart's content.
Unfortunately, Rhino Horn Island is also among them.
Zhou Yang's plan was that the Zhou family would pay for and contribute to connect the Rhino Horn Continent with the current Immortal Cultivation Realm, and then all the territories along the way would nominally belong to the Zhou family.
Any monk who discovers a new oasis in this area and wants to occupy the new oasis and open up a new family must submit to the Zhou family and be a vassal of the Zhou family, otherwise the Zhou family has the right to attack it, and no one is allowed to interfere.
When half of these planned artificial oases are completed, Zhou Yang will sell the map to the Rhino Horn Continent to those scattered cultivators, encouraging them to venture into this area and help his Zhou family explore the situation in this area.
At the same time, he would promise these cultivators that as long as a new oasis was found in this area, the Zhou family would support them in establishing a family and provide them with basic protection, and if they did not want to establish a family, they could also sell the oasis to the Zhou family.
And if the ore vein is discovered, as long as the ore vein information is sold to the Zhou family, you can get a good reward.
Zhou Yang believed that under the attraction of these favorable conditions, there would definitely be countless unsatisfactory and adventurous monks and family monks who would come here to explore the new world.
And when these monks come, they are bound to stop and replenish on the various oases created by the Zhou family, and the treasures obtained from the expedition will naturally be sold to the Zhou family's shops nearby.
In the long run, the spirit stones paid by the Zhou family to build a new oasis can even be earned back from these scattered cultivators.
"Jiang Yuyan's lifespan is about thirty years old, I have agreed with her that in twenty-seven years, I will go to the Rhino Horn Continent to expel the fifth-order demon beast, and as long as the fifth-order demon beast is successfully expelled, we can start construction on both lines to speed up the construction of the oasis, so that the construction period can be shortened by at least one-third!"
Above the sea of sand, Zhou Yang looked at the low-level monks below who had already begun to busily cast spells to excavate and guide the groundwater gushing out, and remembered his plan, and his face showed a slight look of expectation.
If his "New Home Plan" can succeed, the foundation of the Zhou family's thousand-year-old family will be completely laid, and the spiritual veins he needs to marry Dan in the future will also be done at one time.
To establish a second-order high-grade spirit vein out of nothing, even with the assistance of the Spirit Gathering Array, it would cost 20,000 lower-grade spirit stones.
After Zhou Yang and the other two formation mages of the Zhou family arranged the spirit gathering array, they threw the spirit stone into the formation.
In the next year, the formation will slowly extract the spiritual power in the spirit stone and integrate it into the leyline, thus forming a spirit gathering effect, attracting the spiritual energy within dozens of miles around it to converge in this direction, and then this spiritual vein will be completely completed.
At the same time, those monks who practiced the water system exercises also channeled the clear water deep underground to the ground with the help of spells and formations.
The monks then used the clear water as a guide and took turns to cast spells in batches to turn the water vapor into rain clouds and sprinkle them evenly over a radius of several miles, first infiltrating and transforming the sandy land.
When the sandy soil turns into clay soil, those wood-based monks will sprinkle grass seeds on the land, and then use wood-based cultivation spells to grow grass seeds, and finally turn the withered grass seeds into fertilizer and sink into the ground to enrich the land.
It is not difficult for more than 100 monks to take turns and continue to work, and it is not difficult to create a small and medium-sized oasis in three years.
Of course, behind this seemingly easy thing is the large amount of spirit stone materials consumed by the Zhou family to hire these monks.
According to the contract signed between the Zhou family and these people, as long as a cultivator who practices qi five-layer water system exercises, as long as he officially starts working, he can get a reward of one hundred spirit stones from the Zhou family every year, and the spirit stones that replenish his mana in the middle must also be provided by the Zhou family, and all the food and drink are also the same.
In this way, even if the thirty or forty Zhou family children, relatives, and guests in these monks are removed, the employment fees paid by the Zhou family to these monks every year alone will be as high as more than 10,000 spirit stones!
If it weren't for the fact that some monks were willing to use the Zhou family to settle the account with spirit runes, pills, and magic weapons, it would be really difficult for the Zhou family to raise such an infrastructure team that swallowed gold like earth.
However, Zhou Yang believes that all this effort is worth it.
Infrastructure investment is always like this, the upfront cost is huge, and the later stage sits and collects money.
As long as the twenty-five artificial oases are completed, all the investment of the Zhou family will be recovered tenfold or hundredfold in the next thousands of years.
Zhou Yang returned to Chihu Mountain after the construction of the oasis officially began, and he had already formulated the plan, as long as the monks of the Zhou family implemented it according to his plan.
And there is Zhou Guangxiang, the monk of the Zhou family, who is in charge of the scene, and he is not afraid that those monks will not work with money, and he is not afraid that there will be demon beasts and gangsters to come to sneak attack.
You must know that Zhou Guangxiang has not only reached the fifth level of foundation building himself, but also carries a third-order low-grade demon beast flying leopard in his spirit beast bag, and there is also a third-order middle-grade puppet beast and a fourth-order beast soul talisman in the storage bag.
With these hole cards in hand, unless there are Purple Mansion Stage monks and fourth-order demon beasts attacking, otherwise three or five foundation building monks will not be her opponents.
