Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Chapter 1327 Grand Vision and New Chapter (3K)

Asking for recommendations and monthly passes

……

Chen Xiaojun had a gentle smile on his face as he stood quietly in front of the Duke's Mansion, bidding farewell to each Soul Douluo with a gentle look.

Their figures gradually walked away, blending into the bustling and noisy scene, but Chen Xiaojun's mind had already drifted towards a grander blueprint.

This incident involves such a huge amount of financial transactions that it is impossible for a single department to handle it.

The Finance Department, Management Department, Organization Department and other departments of the Chen family need to work closely together and link each other closely to ensure that the entire operation process is smooth.

In this complex cross-departmental operation, Chen Xiaojun, the young master who holds economic power, sits in charge and controls the overall situation.

"Just laugh. I think you've been hurt internally by the pleasure." A clear and pleasant voice rang beside Chen Xiaojun like a silver bell.

Chen Xiaojun heard the voice and his smile became brighter. He turned slightly and looked at the beautiful woman beside him: "Grandma, look at what you said. You made your grandson sound so hypocritical, as if I was hiding something that I couldn't tell anyone."

Although Xia Qingyun has experienced the baptism of time, her beautiful face, which looks like that of a girl in her twenties, is now full of disgust.

She glanced at him and snorted, "Xiaojun, it's no fun if you're still hiding things from your grandma. You're not straightforward."

When Chen Xiaojun first saw Xia Qingyun, it was as if he saw the stars falling.

The young man suddenly felt frost on the teacup in his hand - it turned out that when the empress of that time stood facing the wind, even the morning light had to circle three times around her wide sleeves with black patterns before it dared to sprinkle.

This kind of scene is no longer a simple beauty from the Book of Songs with hands as soft as catkins, skin as white as cream, a neck as white as a cicada, and teeth as white as gourd rhinoceros horn, but rather a variety of high-sounding modifiers.

For example, peerless beauty, fairy from the ninth heaven, beauty that outshines heaven and earth, etc.

It is clearly the soul of an immortal that has fallen from the sky, an existence that embodies all the gorgeous words in the world.

In fact, there is a limit to physical beauty.

It is mainly a kind of temperament that is the key to truly captivating people.

This temperament is shaped by her unique growth experience, distinct personality, respected social status and profound cultivation.

It is natural, without any traces of carving, and it is like the natural charm of Taoism that has been precipitated over the years.

She had that kind of empress-like aura of dominating the world, with mountains and rivers seeming to be contained between her brows, and mist and clouds flowing in her every move.

Even a thousand-year-old family cannot cultivate half of this kind of temperament.

In the boy's eyes, Xia Qingyun's beauty is far superior to that of the cold and mysterious Xiaoyi, surpasses the beautiful Liu Ruyan and Shen Youchu, surpasses the gentle and virtuous Ye Xiuxin, and also surpasses the dignified and elegant Xue Chuxin and the charming Yang Jingxue.

Her beauty is unique and irreplaceable.

Only the immortal figure walking on the waves on the coral reef, his great-grandmother, the high priestess of Poseidon Island, Bo Xian'er, and his aunt, the 'natural white moonlight', the ancient agarwood Xue Shiqiong, or the cold moon carved by frost and snow on the top of the mountain, Lu Xueqi, can compete with this peerless beauty.

It can be said that Xia Qingyun is the most beautiful woman the young man has ever seen in the world.

……

Chen Xiaojun blinked his lively eyes and asked innocently, "Grandma, how can I be so happy? Please don't wrongly accuse me."

Xia Qingyun curled her lips, elegantly picked up the jade pot-shaped Qipinzhi wine beside her, took a sip, and then uttered a meaningful "hehe".

"You have now extended your hand to the money house field, and you still think I know nothing? You, kid, have such little plans in your mind that they have even reached Tiandou City."

Chen Xiaojun couldn't help but reveal an embarrassed smile on his face.

Indeed, he had a bold plan in mind - to launch the "Chen's Currency", which would undoubtedly be an important step in the financial field and had a bit of the meaning of playing with finance.

In the operational philosophy of modern consortiums, banks are always the core.

If the Chen family wants to further develop and grow, relying solely on official currency can no longer meet its growing circulation needs.

On the mainland, the gold coin crystal cards circulated between empires and kingdoms seem convenient, but in fact they are bound by the constraints of the covenant agreement.

They have clear anchors, follow the precious metals standard, and their value is closely linked to precious metal reserves.

The "Chen currency" conceived by Chen Xiaojun also has a solid anchor.

He linked it with high-level spiritual medicines and the precious items derived from them, such as elixirs, spiritual wines, etc.

In the world of soul masters, this is also hard currency.

……

In his mind, he has already outlined a grand economic blueprint.

As long as the "Chen's currency" has strong purchasing power and good reputation, and is backed by Chen's powerful military force, then this "Chen's currency" will have the magical power of "money making money", allowing money to continue to generate more wealth like a snowball.

In this way, it is very likely to emerge on this vast continent and become a shining new star in the economic field.

Of course, to achieve this grand goal, the advantages of the currency itself are far from enough. The channels and intensity of promotion are also crucial.

The Chen family already has advantages in this regard. Its chain markets for medicinal materials have taken root in various parts of the mainland, and with the future chain of super hypermarkets, transactions will certainly be frequent, forming a huge and dense downstream channel network.

These channels can be used as supporting measures for the promotion of "Chen's Currency". With its wide coverage and efficient circulation, it can first determine the status of "Chen's Crystal Card" as an equivalent transaction item with various large-value transaction forces. Then, small-value "Chen's Gold Coins" can be introduced into thousands of households and deeply rooted in people's hearts.

……

Judging from the Chen family’s development plan for the next few years, leapfrog development is imperative, but the resulting expenditure will be astronomical.

For example, the expansion of the Jinyiwei, the establishment of four major colleges, and the large-scale expansion of the market, in order to ensure its strong combat effectiveness and the training of future talents related to the Chen family, the expansion of the economic territory, huge expenditures and tight funds.

Under this circumstance, Chen Xiaojun intends to optimize the existing industrial financial structure, improve the efficiency of capital utilization and increase internal capital accumulation.

For example, we can conduct refined cost management in the elixir industry to reduce production costs and increase product profit margins; we can optimize inventory in the medicinal materials chain market to reduce capital occupation.

At the same time, if the "Chen's Crystal Card" can be launched first and replace some traditional large-denomination currency crystal cards, and the Chen's currency and official currency can be integrated, it will undoubtedly be a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

After all, currency is only real currency if it can be circulated and used in the market.

In fact, everyone knows the situation this time. Everyone can accept it if it takes three to six months to digest it. Even lowering the reward amount is feasible.

But I didn’t expect the Chen family to give it directly and generously, even though it was their own crystal card.

This is equivalent to the contract, which gives everyone peace of mind.

Everyone also believes that the Chen family will not breach the contract.

Little did people know that this was an experiment of the Chen family and also the first step for the Chen family to move towards financialization.

Of course, many people can see it, but they agree with it.

……

In this way, cash transaction costs and risks can be reduced, the speed of capital circulation can be increased, and a large amount of consumption data can be obtained through crystal card transactions to provide support for financial analysis and decision-making, thereby providing a more solid financial guarantee for the development of industries such as medicine.

On the other hand, Chen Xiaojun does not even rule out actively expanding external financing channels in the future, such as cooperating with financial institutions and chambers of commerce to obtain loan support, issuing Chenjia bonds to attract social capital investment and other financial means.

In addition, looking back at the development history of the Chen family over the years, apart from the spiritual medicine industry which is still thriving, other industries are also undergoing continuous integration and optimization, and an Industrial Development Department has been established.

Plan and manage various family industries, such as agriculture, industry, mining, etc., and promote industrial upgrading and technological innovation.

It also supervises industry operations, analyzes industry performance, and makes suggestions for improvement to achieve sustainable development, rational allocation of resources, and efficient use.

In recent years, not only has the scale of the industry continued to expand, but the continuous exploration and development of new products by the Research Department's People's Livelihood Division in recent years have achieved fruitful results and earned huge profits.

In this regard, Xia Ying, Director of the Industrial Development Department, and Shen Youchu, Director of the Commerce Department, who was responsible for its market sales, did an excellent job.

Under the influence of Zhu Feifei, Shen Youchu, as the eldest daughter of the Shen family, is a rival of Liu Ruyan.

Not only their soul master combat power, but also their business ability is similar.

If the Publicity Department was not temporarily short of staff, Chen Xiaojun would have let Liu Ruyan be in charge of the Trade and Logistics Department of the chain market to engage in head-on healthy competition.

Well, actually it’s not impossible.

The person in charge of the Trade and Logistics Department was originally Deputy Minister and Operations Director Ling Yunxiao, and now Chen Chen has taken over.

The problem is that starting this year, the market will build more than a dozen new buildings, and will develop in leaps and bounds, which will greatly increase business volume.

Then, if Chen Chen is responsible for the operation of the existing chain market, it would be a bit like having multiple bodies.

If Liu Ruyan is transferred here, she and Shen Youchu will both compete and cooperate with each other, and their chemical reaction will be worth looking forward to.

We need to carefully consider who will be Liu Ruyan's successor.

By the way, Chen Chen’s original position as operations manager of the flagship store of the Chang’an chain herbal medicine market and deputy director of the trade department has been recalled to his younger brother Ling Xinghe from the Fighting Soul Corps to take over.

This kid is 36 years old this year, and it’s time for him to settle down and start a family.

……

Recently, Chen Xiaojun is preparing to officially launch another flagship product that Xia Ying and her colleagues from the Industrial Development Department have been preparing for many years - cigarettes.

That’s right, cigarettes!
In the eastern country of Blue Star, the cigarette industry is an important pillar of taxation. Taxation alone can support the huge military expenditure, and the scale of the industry is as high as trillions.

However, on this continent, people are still using traditional dry tobacco pipes. The cigarette industry is almost an undeveloped virgin land with terrifying development potential.

Cigarettes have huge advantages over dry tobacco.

The Qin family, the master of Meteor Red Tassel Spear, and the Yang family, the master of Soul-Breaking Spear, are experts in tobacco cultivation and have rich experience and superb skills.

Taking this as a starting point, the Chen family has been investigating and carefully acquiring tobacco plantations in various places through the tobacco industry association over the past few years.

Today, this strategic layout has been prepared for three years, and everything is ready except for the east wind.

The production process of cigarettes is actually not complicated. It is mainly divided into several key links, including initial roasting of tobacco leaves, beating and re-roasting of leaves, tobacco leaf fermentation, cigarette formula, cigarette silk making, cigarette rolling, and cigarette packaging.

Although the cigarette industry seems to be different from the traditional medical field, the Chen family may use the funds, channels and other resources accumulated in the medical field to promote the development of the cigarette industry, further expand its business territory and obtain more profits.

Moreover, specialized machinery and equipment have already been produced and special rolling paper is also ready, just waiting for the cigarettes to be officially launched on the market, thus opening a new chapter for the Chen family in the tobacco industry.
