I am immortal with scientific thinking

Chapter 61 Platform
"Platform?" Xu Mengyun immediately noticed the word, and Liu Mei frowned slightly, "What does this mean?"

"I'm not a seller and a buyer, but I want to be a middleman between the two." Lin Chen explained.

"Just be a book transporter?" Xu Mengyun thought carefully for a while, a little unable to understand, "Then what's the benefit?"

"The benefits are great. We can get the most spirit stones with the least effort." Lin Chen tapped on the table and smiled.

"How is this possible?!" Xu Mengyun was a little surprised.

Her family has been taught since childhood to operate with integrity, and what she pays attention to is to get a share of the same goods. This is the first time she has heard of this kind of statement.

"For example, Senior Sister, do you know the price of Ziyun Pill refined by Zongmen's alchemy disciples?" Lin Chen didn't answer her directly, but asked instead.

Ziyun Pill is a elixir commonly used in the later stage of Qi refining [Cyclone Realm] to improve one's cultivation.

"One pill and two spirit stones." Xu Mengyun recalled for a while, and immediately gave the answer.

As an information dealer of the sect, and the pills are closely related to monks, she is naturally concerned about this aspect.

"Then on the Zongmen's exchange list, what is the price of a bottle of Ziyun Pill? How many pills are there?" Lin Chen continued to ask.

"A bottle of [-] spirit stones, a total of six pieces, if converted in this way, it is one... wait, you mean..."

Xu Mengyun's eyes widened instantly, she understood what Lin Chen meant.

Act as a transshipment of goods between buyers and sellers, so as to take advantage of both sides in the process!

Lin Chen doesn't want to be a seller, because he doesn't want to spend too much energy on this, so he acts as a middleman, taking both ends, doing the least and getting the most!
"But in this way, will the seller agree? After all, this will damage their interests." Xu Mengyun asked a question.

"Do they dare not agree?" Lin Chen said with a smile, but his voice was cold, "At that time, the entire market was monopolized by us, and whether this book can be redeemed or sold is up to us. , to suppress directly."

"Even if some sellers are a bit famous, but those monks who bought his books, can they fight us for these books? Of course, if they unite, we will split them up and give some benefits to the top, so that they can help us in turn. Isn't that all right?"

"And senior sister, don't look at us as both sides, but we have formed a platform, controlled the entire market, expanded our influence, and can bring more spiritual stones to monks who write books. From this perspective, although we have done Less, but the benefits to sellers are not too small!"

Xu Mengyun was silent, calculated in her heart, then raised her head to look at Lin Chen, and sighed softly: "Junior brother, you are quite suitable to be a businessman."

"Haha, I'm just talking on paper. If I really want to do it, I still have to see my senior sister!" Lin Chen shook his head with a smile and continued.

"And we can also sink the market, find more buyers, and earn more spirit stones!"

"The market is sinking, what does this mean?" Xu Mengyun frowned slightly.

"The meaning is very simple. It is to expand the sales of books to the entire Qingyunzong area and establish sub-markets in major square cities."

"The lives of casual cultivators who lick blood at the tip of their knives need to vent, and the monks of small powers need to relax in the face of the pressure of competition. These are potential customers."

"The Qingyun sect has a vast territory, and there are many monks in it. Even if one tenth, no, even if one percent of the monks are willing to buy it, how many spirit stones will it bring us?"

"And we will have to transform later."

"Transformation?" Before Xu Mengyun had time to digest what Lin Chen said, a new word popped up, and she had no time to think, so she couldn't help asking.

"When you read more and experience more, people will gradually get used to it. At that time, when the spiritual needs caused by physical desires can no longer be satisfied in the books we provide, you need more advanced spiritual food. .”

"What is that?" Xu Mengyun asked subconsciously.

"That is longevity and happiness, which is the purpose of our cultivation." Lin Chen raised his head and looked at the distant sky.

"Humans are just a short-lived species. To the heaven and the earth, they are just dreams of life and death, so they yearn for a long life that can coexist with the sky and the earth, and be able to shine with the sun and the moon."

"In life, not everyone has a lot of money and countless spiritual stones. Naturally, they have to face all kinds of constraints in reality. They can't be free and oppress their own will. That's why they yearn for the freedom from all constraints."

"With desire, there will naturally be demand, and with demand, there will naturally be a market, so we can create this type of book."

"Then from now on, the Book of Fengyue corresponds to low-level monks, and the Book of Longevity and Freedom satisfies those foundation-building monks who seek longevity and have no hope of golden core."

"We can even publish some books with cultivation knowledge and full of dry goods to sell to those determined seekers."

"In this way, monks with different needs correspond to different types of books, and take all the upper, middle, and lower books. How many spirit stones will there be?" Lin Chen asked with a smile.

"This..." Lin Chen's words made Xu Mengyun subconsciously calculate.

There are tens of thousands of monks inside the sect, and if there are tens of thousands more outside the sect, the sum will be only more than [-] monks, plus the consumption of the monks who established the foundation, even if they only earn a few pieces of spirit stones each year, then, that There are also hundreds of thousands of spirit stones...

How many, hundreds of thousands? !
Pile up these spiritual stones, I'm afraid they could become a small mountain, let alone owning them, Xu Mengyun has never even seen them!

"Not only that, but we can also buy a book in volumes, divide it into volumes one, two, three, four, and five, and release them in batches."

"Of course, we have to export enough books to the market, so we need enough book writers."

"We can properly tilt some spirit stones on some disciples, let them continue to improve their cultivation, and shape a low-level disciple who is promoted to the foundation period because of writing books, so as to attract many people to join us...Of course, this is our promotion. Things that can only be arranged after the foundation building period.”

"Well... the purpose of cultivating all arts is to earn enough spiritual stones to be promoted. If so, then do I have to open another one for cultivating all arts, the way to write a book?" Lin Chen Can't help but become interested.

The purpose of cultivating immortals is to earn enough spirit stones to serve oneself, but there is no specific form.

In other words, if writing a book could earn spirit stones, I don't know how many monks would invest in it.

Maybe thousands of years later, it will become one of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. At that time, maybe some monks will say: "I am enlightened by writing!"

"But, but, will the benefits brought by this cause other people's greed?" Although Xu Mengyun was puzzled by Lin Chen's words, she did not forget the most important benefits.

"The platform is not so easy to form, it will take at least several years, even ten years or so, and by then, I have already established the foundation.

Moreover, the interest groups formed by the book-writing monks supported by this market are also strong enough to compete with other monks. "Lin Chen took a sip of the spiritual tea lightly.

"As for the ancestors of Jindan? They don't care about this benefit, and maybe they will give us preferential treatment because of the role of these books." Lin Chen put down his teacup and said meaningfully.

Afterwards, he changed the subject and said, "Now that we have envisioned the vision for the future, shouldn't we talk about something more realistic, such as how to do it and how to divide it?"

When it comes to dividing spirit stones, Xu Mengyun finally came to her senses. Lin Chen said a lot earlier, she couldn’t understand at all, so she could only nod her head. Now when it comes to dividing money, she finally returned to her familiar field.

"How do you plan to divide the work? How do you divide the spirit stones?"

"Senior Sister, what are you talking about? We should work hard and harvest together when we talk about Lingshi's multiple birth points!" Lin Chen said in surprise.

"Don't be sloppy with Senior Sister, you little guy talks one thing after another, Senior Sister is really afraid that you will sell her and have to count the money for you." Xu Mengyun rolled her eyes.

Although Xu Mengyun didn't quite understand what he said just now, she also understood that Lin Chen also had means in business, so she had to guard against it!

The relationship between us is one thing, but the money is another thing, the two should not be confused!
"My heart is for the bright moon, but the bright moon is for the ditch!" Lin Chen sighed softly with a bitter look on his face, "I don't want to do business with senior sister, but to invest in senior sister!"

"Investment?!" Xu Mengyun was at a loss.

"It's just that I publish books, and provide labor, rob the market, let the senior sister be the owner, and finally divide it into me seven and you three."

"Wait! I'm the boss, why should I give you seven?!" Xu Mengyun quickly grasped this point.

"I do the work, and I publish the book, not to mention the promotion, operation, and advertisement..." Lin Chen said confidently.

"Stop, stop, stop!" There was another bunch of incomprehensible words, and Xu Mengyun couldn't help but feel a headache, "Stop talking about that, six or four points!"

"I'm six and you are four? It's not impossible to consider..."

"It's me six you four..."

"impossible!"

After some disputes between the two, Xu Mengyun finally took out a precious spiritual deed from the storage bag with a very painful expression on her face, and signed a contract for [-]% of the spiritual stone.

"Senior sister, go slowly!" Lin Chen beckoned and sent Xu Mengyun away, then sat on a chair, raised a cup of spiritual tea, and took a sip.

"I'm good at talking on paper, but in practice, I may not be able to do it." Lin Chen looked at the distant sky with dark eyes.

It is not clear to Lin Chen how much benefit will be gained by creating a platform for both sides to take all. If he has a choice, he also wants to take it all alone.

But the reason why he attracted Xu Mengyun was not because of the good relationship between them, but because of himself, who really didn't have the ability.

It is true that he has traveled through time, but it does not mean that he will be able to do everything.

It's just that there are some thoughts and opinions that are different from this world, and it is impossible to be proficient in everything.

Don't look at what he said just now, but when he really wants to get started, he's probably in a daze.

After all, Lin Chen was just an ordinary college student in his previous life. Maybe he has read too much on the Internet and can sum up some knowledge, but if he really wants to do business, he is a layman.

You know, in business matters, ideas are one thing, but whether they can be realized is another.

An idea is just a beautiful vision. If you want to succeed, you need start-up funds, contacts, reputation, subordinates, buyers who trust you, etc., but these cannot be accumulated overnight.

If he has a lifespan of a few hundred years, he doesn't mind accumulating slowly while doing research, but he only has a lifespan of about a hundred years, and he has various researches and promotions. .

So the best way is to find a partner who is proficient in business, let her do it, and let herself get a share.

And this partner must have certain power and influence in the sect.

But the strength can't be stronger than Lin Chen, otherwise he can't control it, and he can't have too much involvement with other forces, otherwise he will be restricted by the upper echelons, so after all, Xu Mengyun is the best candidate for the entire sect.

Coincidentally, Lin Chen happened to know her, and they had a good relationship with each other. They had the most basic trust, so they could cooperate naturally.

But what's interesting is that the relationship between the two started when Xu Mengyun ran into Lin Chen taking a bath in the stream, and they have been in touch ever since.

But Lin Chen has always been a very cautious person. When he is not sure about his safety, he will not relax his vigilance around him. How could he take a bath in the stream naked and be bumped by her accidentally?

"That's why life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills!" Thinking of this, Lin Chen smiled slightly, looked at the sunset in the distant sky, and drank the spiritual tea in his hand.

He stood up and was about to leave when he was taken aback suddenly and took out the talisman of communication from his hand.

After seeing the information clearly, Lin Chen was silent for a long time, and said softly.

"Looks like it's time to settle the matter of the Lin family..."

On the other side, Xu Mengyun, who was returning to the cave, felt more and more wrong.

Because even though Lin Chen had been arguing with him during the split, she always felt a little too relaxed.

His junior brother is not a good stubble, how can he speak so easily?
Xu Mengyun took out the spirit contract and carefully observed the contract on it.

"He helped me promote, operate, advertise, and was also responsible for publishing books. Although I don't know what this means, I feel that he has done a lot... It seems that there is no problem, but I always feel weird."

"Junior Brother, Junior Brother..." Xu Mengyun closed her eyes, carefully recalling Lin Chen's information.

"Lin Chen, I always like to be alone, in the outer sect competition... Wait, alone?!"

Xu Mengyun instantly realized something was wrong.

Lin Chen didn't have enough capital, no connections, and no reputation in the market. He said he was helping, but how much could one person do?
In the end, it's not his own boss to do it, he just needs to publish a book.

No, even at the end, there is no need to publish the book, it is written by other monks, the platform is responsible for the platform, the coolies are done by himself, and he just waits for the share, so in the end, his only role is——

Lying down and splitting money? !
