As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 917 Golden Rally
However, Da Su has not yet given his approval.

One reason is the lack of spirit crystals. Another reason is that Da Su plans to find eight operators for the Spirit Shadow Drama, distributed in eight places across the Cangmiao Continent except for the Hanyuan region, to spread Da Su's Spirit Shadow Drama. Naturally, they won't just share this big pie for eight million spirit crystals.

As for the Hanyuan region, it wasn't that Jiang Ran didn't want to, but rather that it had become the territory of magical beasts, leaving no room for human intervention.

Besides the Spirit Shadow Drama, the second major breakthrough was the Cloud Swallowing Flying Sword.

In fact, the spirit crystals I've earned with the Cloud Swallowing Sword these past few days are far more than what I've earned with the Spirit Shadow Drama.

After all, the price of the Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword is high, ranging from over 100,000 to over 200,000 spirit crystals.

Due to the influence of the Ghost Shadow Drama, almost anyone who has watched "The Legend of Cloud Chaser: Episode 1" and has a little money will buy a Cloud Swallowing Flying Sword.

With the replenishment of Wanbao Spirit Goods Store's inventory and the addition of two highly skilled weapon refiners, the shortage problem has been temporarily alleviated, and Da Su has been making a fortune these days.

Even after deducting material and labor costs, the net profit reached an astonishing 500 million spirit crystals.

How long has it been?

Clearly, this is far from the limit of the Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword!
At least for a long time, Da Su's military expenses were not a problem, and the construction funds for the Lingze Islands were also secured.

Besides the Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword, the other magical artifacts exported by Da Su also performed reasonably well, earning them a considerable amount of money.

Beyond the ritual implements.

The business of pills in Da Su has been sluggish, which is related to the lack of good alchemists in Da Su. Fortunately, the sales of certain herbs and medicinal powders for treating common wounds are still good.

Although the blood-red paper made from the Azure Blood Trident Bamboo is not as stable as the talisman paper commonly used in the market today, it has gained the favor of a certain group of spirit talisman masters, especially high-level spirit talisman masters, because of its explosive characteristics.

In addition, the Haiqi Pearl Farm in Dasu also took this opportunity to harvest tens of thousands of mud clams, and this time almost all the clams that had been farmed in the county for two or three years were harvested.

However, after this, Niqi Pearl may need to recuperate for several years before it can produce another batch of decent pearls.

Perhaps it was due to improved aquaculture techniques, or perhaps it was because the pearl farm staff specifically consulted His Highness the Prince when opening the oysters and thus received the blessing of the golden soft coral, but this time they unearthed some pretty good mud coral pearls. As usual, a batch of the best pearls were reserved for the county, while the slightly inferior ones were taken to Mermaid Tears Jewelry Pavilion for sale.

However, because the number of pearls was too small, they were once again taken by customers who had pre-ordered them in the shop, so the news was basically only circulated within a small circle and did not cause a big stir outside.

Only the owner of the Mermaid Tears Jewelry Pavilion and Jiang Ran knew that this Mud Qilin Pearl had earned nearly ten million spirit crystals.

Jiang Ran didn't skimp on her investment in the pearl farm, investing two million spirit crystals in one go. She also wanted to see what the legendary Mud Qilin Pearl, a royal pearl as deep blue as ink, was like. Compared to relying on luck to find such a rare pearl in the wild, perhaps cultivating it herself would have a higher probability of success. Therefore, the pearl farm expanded again, this time releasing tens of thousands of Mud Qilin clams into the sea, with more clams to be released in batches later.

In the past, Osaka relied mainly on seafood from the sea to make money, and the seafood business has always been the pillar industry of Osaka.

This year is no exception. Even though Da Su sold the ships to Tianlong Palace, the sect has only recently acquired them. While their disciples may have cultivation levels, to return with a full load on the ocean, they need experienced crew members, good fishing gear, and a good transportation channel to transport the goods to Mingxiao City.

Tianlong Palace needs to rely on Da Su for all three of these things.

Therefore, even though Da Su had a competitor in the ocean realm, he didn't earn much less money than before, and even earned more money than before from a teleportation array.

It is worth mentioning that shared interests are always the best way to maintain relationships. Tianlong Palace has benefited from the seafood business in Dasu. Recently, the elders of Tianlong Palace have frequently sent messages of goodwill to Dasu. Disciples of Tianlong Palace can also be seen everywhere in Nangang Town. These people have a very good attitude towards the people of Dasu.

……

Only after resolving the Su family's affairs did Jiang Ran have time to keep her appointment with Zhou Yixiao.

As dawn broke, a thin mist, like a veil, gently enveloped the lively gathering and celebration.

Because there are several thousand-year-old ginkgo trees standing here, and the square paved with bluestone is covered with golden leaves that shimmer with a faint spiritual light, like layers of dazzling gold, this place was temporarily called the Golden Gathering by the visiting beastmen.

This area was originally an open space, but now temporary stalls have been set up around the square. The ink on many of the wooden signs is still wet, and at a glance, they are all names like "Wan Shou Zhai" and "Ling Chong Yuan," which clearly indicate that they sell spirit beasts.

At a glance, there are all kinds of spirit beasts, such as firebirds, wind spirit horses, and shadow dogs.

Of the countless magical beasts in the world, those that can be tamed by humans can be considered spiritual beasts.

For a beast tamer to dedicate themselves to training, three types of spirit beasts are considered valuable: First, those with a docile temperament and beautiful or cute appearance, suitable for noble families to keep as pets, such as spirit foxes and spirit rabbits; second, spirit beasts with great strength and endurance, capable of labor and production, such as divine steeds that can travel a thousand miles a day or carry goods and people, or strong spirit oxen that can plow fields and carry heavy loads; and finally, the most mainstream and most expensive, spirit beasts that are naturally good at fighting and have outstanding combat power, such as lions and tigers. These spirit beasts are mostly cubs, which are bought and trained by destined spirit beast tamers from a young age.

Most of those who come to the Golden Gathering do so for this reason.

Jiang Ran and Zhou Yixiao both have striking appearances, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they both made some changes to their faces.

This time, Jiang Ran did not use the Mask of Deception. Fortunately, she had a new talent under her command, Su Changxing, who was skilled in disguise. With the thought of seeing Su Changxing's abilities, she summoned Su Changxing and asked him to disguise himself and Zhou Yixiao.

Su Changxing's hands were truly magical. He created a secret disguise potion, and with his exquisite disguise skills, Jiang Ran and Zhou Yixiao's facial features and bone structure, down to the finest skin texture, under his hands underwent earth-shattering changes. He could even diminish their unique aura.

One advantage of this disguise technique is that it doesn't produce any fluctuations in spiritual energy, so even people with extremely high cultivation levels cannot see through the imposter's true appearance.
