Mortal, marry the old demon's sister and build an immortal family
Chapter 137 The Right to Trade, the White Sea Gang!
Chapter 137 The Right to Trade, the White Sea Gang!
Ye Xiaotian took a quick glance and found that there were quite a few weapon-refining monks and mortals at the port of Kuixing Island. The two were mixed together in a very harmonious manner.
He took another look at the huge buildings on Kuixing Island and the workers carrying things on the dock, and couldn't help but chuckle, as he understood everything in his heart.
The reason why this Chaos Star Sea is not like Tiannan, where ordinary people in the mortal world have no idea of the existence of immortal cultivators, is probably because they are dead.
Although storage bags can be used for long-distance transportation in ocean trade, the efficiency is ultimately too low and cannot compare to large cargo ships.
What's more, the capacity of the storage bag is too small and it is not suitable as a means of transportation.
The most important reason is that the number of immortal cultivators is still too small compared to that of ordinary people.
For example, when it comes to the cargo moving work at the dock, a few Qi-cultivating disciples using magic can outdo hundreds of busy mortals.
But let me ask you, monks are high and mighty, how many of them would be willing to do such a lowly job?
Besides, when hiring a cultivator, the reward is spirit stones, while when hiring a mortal, the reward is just silver.
The yellow and white stuff is of no use to practitioners, but keeping mortals in captivity can provide a constant supply of new blood for the world of immortal cultivation. Otherwise, if the world of immortal cultivation in the Chaos Star Sea relies solely on self-reproduction among the cultivators, it is likely that the world of immortal cultivation in the Chaos Star Sea will sooner or later be broken.
Led by Sun Bufan and Wang Changqing, the group excitedly went to handle some procedures for going to the island.
After all, if a strange cultivator arrives on the island, he must notify the port, so that he will not be treated as a malicious intruder.
However, when everyone followed the two men and looked at everything in the port silently, the feeling they had was that this place was so huge!
Whether in terms of the number or the size of the ships, they are simply incomparable to those small docks in Tiannan.
There were as many as six or seven incredibly large boats as big as Sun Bufan's docked at the pier, and there were countless other smaller boats.
Although Ye Xiaotian did not count them carefully, there should be about two to three hundred of them in the entire dock.
As for the people coming and going, getting on and off the boat, there are even more of them.
There were really a huge crowd of people, it was very lively.
Right on this dock, there was a law enforcement team led by several cultivators in the early stage of foundation building, followed by many Qi training cultivators. Several streaks of light flashed in the sky as they rushed wildly in one direction.
Obviously, another monk's crime has been exposed.
As everyone sighed, they unknowingly walked into a stone house on the pier.
Ye Xiaotian did not hide his cultivation level, and he felt there was no need to do so. On the surface, he was only a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, but when it came to actual fighting, even a cultivator in the great perfection of foundation building would be defeated on the spot.
To deal with a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, it is not necessary to use the Jindan method, right?
Even with Xinggong's wealth and power, it's unlikely that they would be so wasteful.
As long as there is no Jindan cultivator attacking, no matter how many other foundation-building cultivators come, it will be nothing more than chopping melons and vegetables for Ye Xiaotian!
Of course, if he really can't win, can't he just run away?
After the formation traps the enemy, you can choose to use a wood escape talisman, earth escape talisman, or water escape talisman according to the scene. After a flash of light, you can quickly escape.
If you feel unsafe, just use a few more.
Although this kind of talisman is extremely precious, it is not impossible for Ye Xiaotian to refine it now, but the success rate is still a little low.
The interior of the stone house was simply furnished. Apart from a wooden table and a chair, there was only an old man with a sallow complexion sitting there with his eyes closed.
The immortal master opened his eyes only after hearing the sound of Han Li and others coming in.
Suddenly a ray of cold light shot out from his eyes, as if he wanted to see through everyone. Ye Xiaotian sneered. Although he was a little unhappy as he had just arrived, he did not think of fighting back.
This person is a foundation-building cultivator after all, and represents the face of the island owner.
After seeing the five people's cultivation, the old man stood up instantly, and his attitude changed immediately. He bowed and said:
"I wonder why you are here, fellow Taoists? I see you are unfamiliar with me, so you must be here to apply for residency permit, right?"
Ye Xiaotian nodded. After systematic study, the five of them were able to communicate correctly even though their accents were still a little unfamiliar.
Naturally, I can understand what the old man in front of me said. What does he mean?
After paying some spirit stones and obtaining temporary residence status, everyone settled down in an inn to rest for a while.
"Han Li, have you made up your mind about what I told you before?"
After everyone sat down on the second floor, Ye Xiaotian looked at Han Li and couldn't help but ask.
He knew very well that Han Li's ideas were different from everyone else's. If he really didn't want to, Ye Xiaotian would not force him. After all, everyone has their own aspirations.
"Brother Xiaotian, we are new here, so it is better not to conflict with the local forces of Kuixing Island. We can rent a place for cultivation first."
Han Li's idea was very simple. He had always been cautious and didn't want to get involved in this matter at all.
Thirty percent profit may seem like a lot, but he wouldn't be tempted at all.
As long as there is a small green bottle, it is entirely possible to cultivate elixirs, and there is no shortage of resources.
"Han Li, do you know that it is extremely difficult for cultivators who do not live on Kuixing Island to obtain a place to practice?"
Ye Xiaotian shook his head slightly and decided to tell the truth.
"Is there such a saying?" Han Li frowned, showing disbelief.
"According to what Sun Bufan said, as long as we are willing to help, regardless of whether the matter is successful or not, the Sun family is willing to pay a large sum of spirit stones as a reward."
"And if we really win the business license for the Sun family, they are willing to be the guarantors for us, the outsiders, to settle on Kuixing Island and become the official residents of Kuixing Island."
"The most important thing is that no matter whether we hold a position on Kuixing Island in the future, the Sun family is willing to give us 30% of the profits from the transaction in the next three years."
Seeing Han Li's confused expression, Ye Xiaotian first repeated the conditions offered by the Sun family, and then spoke again:
"There are generally two types of foreign cultivators who stay on Kuixing Island. One type is cultivators who only stay on the island temporarily. They do not hold any position on the island. They usually stay for several years and then decide whether to stay or leave based on their preferences."
"The other option is to have a local wealthy family as a guarantor, and then you can go through the procedures for permanent residence on the island."
"Not only do these cultivators pay much less spiritual stones every year than the previous ones, but they are also the only ones who are qualified to hold positions on the island and participate in the spiritual land competition held every ten years on the island. Those who rank high can obtain cultivation lands with varying degrees of spiritual energy density."
“And because of the people outside the island, it is not easy to find a guarantor on a big island like Kuixing Island.”
"Those immortal cultivators who live on the affiliated islands can also participate in this kind of competition, but they can only participate in the competition for the cultivation land on the main island."
"The reason why Kuixing Island is the main island is because the spiritual vein on the island is the best and has the most concentrated spiritual energy in the nearby sea. The spiritual veins on other islands are much worse."
"I have inquired about this before. This kind of thing is common. It happens no matter where we go. Unless we go out and find an isolated island with rich spiritual energy and set up a formation to resist the monsters, otherwise, we can only follow the rules here."
After listening to Ye Xiaotian's story, Han Li's face was uncertain, and even the faces of the other people were not too good. These regulations were obviously a strategy to keep those cultivators with higher cultivation on the main island.
Because who among those who practice Taoism doesn’t want a place for practice with abundant spiritual energy!
Even if he was cultivating spiritual herbs and practicing, it was also a place for cultivation. The richer the spiritual energy, the better!
More importantly, there are many monsters in the Chaos Star Sea. Even if there are formations for defense, no one can guarantee that this place will not be attacked by monsters.
In the event of a disaster such as a beast tide, the monks on the island will need to work together to resist the foreign enemies.
Once they build caves here and cultivate spiritual herbs and medicines, they will naturally gather together if they are reluctant to spend their energy. Otherwise, if they encounter a tide of beasts, why would they risk their lives to resist? Wouldn't it be better to just run away?
"So, if we want to get a place for cultivation with abundant spiritual energy, we must fight for it?" Han Yunzhi frowned and looked at everyone present. Although they were all foundation-building cultivators and their strength was not weak, they had to clash with the local old forces, so they had to consider whether it was worthwhile or not, right?
You can't do business that will lose money.
At this moment, a monk in white robes came towards them and bowed slightly:
"Hello, fellow Taoists. I am Bai Tiao from the Baihai Gang. I will be polite in advance."
Seeing the uninvited white-robed monk, everyone was slightly startled.
They had just arrived at Kuixing Island, so how come someone came uninvited?
We all became slightly alert and looked at the person who came.
"Haha! Please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions. I am only here on behalf of the Baihai Gang to discuss a business deal with you."
"If you don't mind, please have a drink."
Don't hit a smiling person. Ye Xiaotian nodded slightly and made a gesture of invitation.
After the white-shirted monk sat down, he did not say too much, but went straight to the point:
"My fellow Taoists, you may not know that we in the Baihai Gang have spies at the dock. After seeing you following Sun Bufan to apply for temporary residence permits, someone reported it to the gang."
"So, I came here uninvited."
Ye Xiaotian, I also frowned slightly and said lightly:
"Really? Then why are you here today? Don't let us interfere in your affairs, okay?"
"That's a misunderstanding. We in the Baihai Gang are not unreasonable people. We will not make enemies everywhere."
"It's just that the rights to trade are very profitable. This time I came here not only to represent the Baihai Gang, but also to represent several other forces. I implore you not to help the Sun family fight for the rights to trade."
"Of course, as a reward, we will also pay a sum of spiritual stones. What do you think, fellow Taoists?"
"The local forces of Kuixing Island should not be underestimated. As soon as they arrived, someone came to their door." Ye Xiaotian frowned deeply. He was going to take the Fenyuan Pill and then start to form the Dan.
In this case, naturally, there would be no energy to look for the resources needed to practice the Nine Star Hegemony Body Art, including some other resources. If it were left to others to handle, wouldn't it be great to just sit back and reap the benefits?
What's more, Ye Xiaotian is not alone now. In addition to his younger sister, he has two children, Chen Qiaoqian and Han Yunzhi. He can't just leave them alone, right?
I just don’t know what the strength of the Baihai Gang is, and whether there are any Jindan cultivators in charge?
After he was undecided, Ye Xiaotian chuckled and said:
"Brother Bai may have misunderstood. We are just taking Sun Bufan's boat for a ride. We did not promise him that we would participate in the island's merchant competition."
"Of course, he also mentioned this to us and promised to give us a huge reward. Now, we have come to this restaurant to discuss it."
"We can't come up with a solution at this moment, how about giving us a few days, Brother Bai?"
"Haha!! That's right. If you have thought it through, you can go to any of the Baihai Gang's properties and let them know. We will give you some spirit stones."
After a few more polite words, Bai Tiao turned and left.
"Hey! We haven't even made a decision yet, but local issues have already come to us." Chen Qiaoqian shook her head with a wry smile. It seems that no matter where you go, there will be conflicts.
"Han Li, I have explained the current situation to you clearly. I don't know what you think. If you really don't want to, I won't force you." As soon as Ye Xiaotian said this, the little sister beside him couldn't help but glared at him fiercely.
Han Li couldn't help but be slightly stunned and smiled bitterly in his heart.
It seems that Brother Xiaotian was unhappy with the bag of spirit stones that his younger sister gave him before.
indeed!
That whole bag of low-grade spirit stones must have at least 20,000 or 30,000 of them.
Anyone would feel heartbroken!
Moreover, no matter how close they are, they will eventually have to separate themselves. If they don't contribute, how can they occupy resources?
You can't always think about getting something for free, right?
Although everyone was weak during the Qi Refining Stage, Ye Xiaotian did so.
Han Li could naturally see it as well.
But Brother Xiaotian gave him a lot in return later, such as life-saving wood escape talismans, formations, etc. Comparing the two, he actually got a lot of advantages.
And according to what Brother Xiaotian said before, it is not easy to find a place with abundant spiritual energy.
First of all, you need to obtain permanent residency on Kuixing Island.
After hesitating for a long time, Han Li finally nodded and agreed.
He will never forget the three disasters of Chaos Star Sea.
Without Ye Xiaotian, the formation master, he had no confidence in surviving in the open sea.
"It seems that you need to work harder on formations in the future. You can't just rely on others."
Han Li couldn't help but think silently in his heart.
After Han Li agreed, Ye Xiaotian also turned his gaze to the other two.
"Junior Sister Chen, Junior Sister Han, what do you think?"
The two looked at each other.
"We listen to you!"
