The road to immortality for a hundred generations

"Speaking of this, I can be considered an immortal cultivator now."

Wang Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "A cultivator who is barely at the first level of Qi training."

"Senior Lin, have you also become an immortal cultivator? What are your qualifications for cultivating immortals? How long did it take to sense the spiritual energy?"

Hearing this, Bai Yinhe suddenly became curious.

"I started trying it two years ago when you gave me the skills and spiritual stones. It took exactly one year to introduce the Qi into my body."

Wang Feng thought for a moment and then said, "As for sensing the aura, I can't remember clearly. It should be eight or nine months ago?"

what?
Bai Yinhe blinked his eyes.

Are sensing spiritual energy and introducing energy into the body separate?
She remembered that after she sensed the spiritual energy, she directly used the traction method to draw a trace of spiritual energy into her body.

"So, Senior Lin, how have you made progress in cultivating immortality this year?"

Bai Yinhe became even more curious.

"I have barely reached the first level of Qi training. I may not even have enough spiritual energy to cast a fireball technique."

Wang Feng shook his head, "I didn't spend too long on this. After all, my martial arts realm hasn't come to an end yet."

It doesn't mean that introducing a trace of spiritual power into the body counts as a level of Qi training.

According to the Immortal Cultivation Technique, when hundreds of strands of spiritual energy are gathered in the body and the spiritual energy is condensed into a small ball, then it can be considered as entering the first level of Qi training.

He remembered that there seemed to be only 97 spiritual energy threads in his body, and it was a bit difficult to say that he was practicing Qi at the first level.

The casting requirement of the fireball spell is exactly one hundred strands of spiritual energy. The more spiritual energy, the greater the power.

This is also due to the fact that after the first trace of spiritual energy enters the body, it will be much faster to introduce the energy into the body again. The more spiritual energy, the faster it will be.

Otherwise, according to the progress from sensing the spiritual energy to causing it to enter the body, it will take at least three or four months to introduce a trace of spiritual energy.

In addition, he had to thank Bai Yinhe for the spiritual stone he gave him.

If he didn't have this spiritual stone, he wouldn't be able to draw Qi into his body even if he gave it another ten years.

"Two years to reach the first level of Qi training? It's not particularly slow."

Bai Yinhe had just said a few words of comfort when he suddenly remembered that he had given the other party a spiritual stone.

In addition, warriors have stronger mental power than ordinary people, and they also have advantages in drawing Qi into their bodies.

With the help of spirit stones and strong spiritual power, he barely managed to reach the first level of Qi training in two years.
"Haha, Senior Lin, I think God has added all your talents to martial arts. Maybe in a few years, Senior Lin, you will become an inner alchemy warrior and a land god?"

Fortunately, immortal cultivators have quick minds, and Bai Yinhe quickly thought of a way to comfort him.

"Well, it should be."

Wang Feng nodded.

If he has poor qualifications for cultivating immortals, he will be inferior. When he is promoted to the inner alchemy, he may not be much inferior to those who cultivate immortals in the foundation-building realm.

From the Bai family's various travel notes and miscellaneous notes on cultivating immortals, he also learned that Ji Ji was already called an ancestor at certain levels in the world of cultivating immortals, which was enough to protect a party.

Knowing that Bai Yinhe was at the peak of the sixth level of Qi training and ready to enter the later stage of Qi training at any time, Wang Feng did not disturb her any more, took out his share of property from her, and left. .

The stronger the opponent is, the greater the help will be to him. Especially after entering the later stage of Qi training, he will be more proficient in alchemy and will naturally be able to help him refine more elixirs.

Over the past year, the twenty lottery shops have brought him a lot of income. Coupled with the gold and silver jewelry he got from Bai Yinhe, he naturally has more spare money in his hands.

Currently, he has 2 taels of gold tickets in his hand. After all, the lottery shop can be said to be a huge profit, with basically no cost, and the bulk of the tax revenue is because the lottery shop is designated as an entertainment store, and the maximum tax is only [-]%. At the same time, it is also classified as third-class Prize winners and above helped him pay a lot.

In addition, with the frequent announcements of big prizes, the enthusiasm of the people at the bottom to buy lottery tickets has reached its peak. Therefore, in this year, he earned a full 1 taels of gold tickets from [-] lottery stores!

In addition to the more than 1 taels of gold tickets that he had not spent in the first place, he had more than 2 taels of gold tickets in his hand.

This time I came to Bai Yinhe and took away the remaining 3 taels of gold tickets from her. Now I have more than 5 taels of gold tickets.

Not only that, he now has a large amount of gold and silver jewelry, which he spent some time auctioning and selling.

Although the jewelry they took was only half the size of the mirror, its actual value was almost twice that of gold. After all, precious jewelry was worth more than gold in the same volume.

After all these jewels were sold, Wang Feng now had 10 taels of gold in his hands!

This includes 4 taels of gold tickets and 6 taels of gold.

But for him, that wasn't enough.

Prices in Xiantian City were high, and the purchasing power of one copper plate was equivalent to one penny in later generations.

10 taels of gold sounds like a lot, but in fact it is only the purchasing power of a mere billion in future generations.

Although the productivity of Xiantian City is equivalent to less than half of the Wei Dynasty, after the Wei Dynasty earns money, it has a lot to spend.

In Xiantian City, there is no need to raise many soldiers or expand the territory. The profits they gain can be used to either snowball or press the bottom of the box.

Therefore, even though Xiantian City only has a population of 200 million, it is actually much richer than the entire Wei Dynasty.

When Wei was poor, the national treasury had millions of taels of silver, and now it has reached 2000 million taels.

Xiantian City is richer than the Wei Dynasty, so is it okay to count 3000 million taels of silver?
3000 million taels of silver is equivalent to 300 million taels of gold. Even if ten grandmaster families share half of it, a family with at least one hundred thousand gold tickets would have a fortune of at least one hundred thousand gold tickets.

Moreover, he speculated based on the situation of the Great Wei treasury. In fact, the value of the Great Wei will be greater, and the heritage of the Grandmaster family will naturally be greater.

In other words, his current family background may not even be as rich as any of the grandmaster families in Xiantian City.

Wang Feng didn't know. He made a rough guess, but it happened to be calculated together with Xiantian City's tax revenue for a year.

Not to mention the top three, just based on the shares of the middle three, their annual income from taxes alone is a full 150 million taels of silver. Including the income of the family store, it is more than 200 million taels of silver.

Converted into gold, it is 20 taels.

If calculated based on the bottom three worst-off families, their annual tax income is more than 5 taels of gold tickets. Counting the family property, it is almost 10 taels of gold tickets.

In other words, Wang Feng's entire family property is now equivalent to the annual income of the worst-performing grandmaster family. "Got to make money!"

Although Wang Feng does not know how much money those grandmaster families have, this does not prevent him from expanding as much as he did in the later stages of the grandmaster family.

It makes no sense that those guys in the early stage of Grandmaster can make money, but he can't in the later stage of Grandmaster.

What's more, he didn't plan to do anything else. He just wanted to open the lottery shop that was only open in Beicheng District to the outer city, Nancheng District, XC District, and even DC District. He just wanted to do business, make a little money, and He didn't think about sabotage, nor did he think about opening the same business with the other nine great master families to squeeze them out.

Therefore, it stands to reason that he would at most be jealous of the Grandmaster family and target him. As long as he did not destroy the order of Xiantian City, he should not be targeted by the inner alchemy warriors in the city lord's palace.

And now that he is in the late stage of being a Grandmaster, he will naturally not be afraid of other Grandmaster families if the Inner Alchemy Warriors do not take action.

Anyway, as I said before, as long as he has not destroyed the order of Xiantian City and has not squeezed the business of other grandmaster families, there is a high probability that he will not receive too strong resistance or targeting.

After getting 10 taels of gold tickets, Wang Feng started the buying, buying, buying mode again.

In Beicheng District, we will add ten lottery stores first. In the outer city area, there are very few innate stores, so there is no need to be afraid. We can just open fifty stores.

Since Nancheng District and XC District are not his territory, there will be fewer openings, tentatively [-].

As for the DC area, which has the most potential threats, Wang Feng only opened ten stores to test the waters first.

Just because there are too many to open at once, Wang Feng has a headache in terms of staffing.

After all, he only has 110 people who are familiar with lottery stores, and he wants to open [-] new ones, so no matter how many people there are, there won't be enough.

But soon, Wang Feng thought of a solution.

First of all, Beicheng District is on his territory, so there is no need to worry at all, so there is no need for old employees to stay. There is no big threat in the outer city area, and there is no need to dispatch old employees. The threat in the DC area is too great, and there is no need to dispatch old employees.

In this way, the personnel dispatch aspect becomes clear.

Forty companies in Nancheng District and XC District can have just one old employee each, and the rest are all new employees who have been temporarily trained for three to five days and are forced to take up the post.

Anyway, this lottery shop signing is not complicated. As long as you are familiar with it for a few days, you will be able to open a shop proficiently.

The remaining ones cannot be hired for short-term jobs because of the easy collusion between internal and external parties in lottery stores, and can only be employed for life.

As a result, the cost will increase again.

A month later, Wang Feng looked at the account book and sighed.

The newly opened 110 lottery stores cost him a lot of money.

Shops in the outer city are cheap, and lottery shops don't need too much space, so the average purchase of fifty shops only cost ten taels of gold each, totaling 500 taels of gold.

He opened ten more stores in Beicheng District, spending an average of 20 taels of gold per store, and a total of 200 taels of gold.

Nancheng District is slightly more expensive. The 30 stores purchased cost an average of 600 taels of gold, totaling [-] taels of gold.

Because the XC area is a trade area, the shops are even more expensive. On average, each shop spent a full 50 taels of gold, and the total cost of 1000 shops was [-] taels!

As for the DC area, although there are only ten stores open, they spend the most money.

Because the shops in the DC area are not only expensive, but also generally large in good locations. If you want to buy a small one, you can only choose a corner shop.

There is no way, the lottery shop is now only famous in Beicheng District, and has not spread to the DC area, so in order to develop better, he can only buy those shops with good locations, big stores, and crazy prices.

After all, the DC area is full of wealthy people. As long as this place becomes famous, then one lottery shop may be able to compete with the three or five in other places.

In the end, each of the ten shops in the DC area spent an average of 200 taels of gold, totaling 2000 taels!
In other words, without counting other expenses, he spent 110 taels of gold tickets just to purchase these 300 shops.

In addition, it costs money to renovate the store, and the personnel need to be hired for life, and they also need to be able to do math, so the purchase price is also relatively expensive.

In addition to internal and external management, we need to find other shops to cooperate with advertising. In addition, we need to reserve a part of working capital to prevent accidents. At least 2000 taels of gold tickets are required as a guarantee.

In other words, these newly opened 110 lottery stores will cost 8000 taels of gold tickets.

Comparing the 8000 taels of gold tickets to the 10 taels of gold tickets in his hands now, it seems that he only spent less than one-twelfth of it. But the problem is that the number of stores he wants to open is far more than this.

In the previous life, China had a population of 13 billion, and nearly half of the people had a monthly salary of less than 40. But even so, it supported more than 3000 lottery shops, with an average of almost [-] people per household.

Xiantian City has a population of 200 million. Even if 3000 people support one lottery shop, 660 can be opened.

What's more, even for low-income people in Xiantian City, the general income is around [-], and the proportion can be higher.

In other words, it is no problem to open seven to eight hundred, or even thousands of shops.

Moreover, he has set a time limit of three to five years for himself. He wants to make a lot of money before everyone reacts, and then use these resources to advance to the inner alchemy.

By then, even if they discover the profits from the lottery, what will happen?At that time, he had become an inner elixir, and they, who were just masters, could not be their opponents.

So what if the inner alchemy city lord takes action?

Therefore, it is impossible to wait for the previous store to make money before continuing to open it.

After investing in these stores for a few months and feeling that they are about the same, he will open a second wave and a third wave, and finally reach the full proportion within a year.

Only in this way can the snowball roll before everyone reacts.

In the past three to five years, even if those Grandmaster families tried to test, they could easily be blocked by him in the later stage of Grandmaster.

By the time the city lord reacts, he will most likely have the inner elixir.

But if he really wants to open all lottery stores within a year, the 10 taels of gold tickets in his hand can only be said to be a slight surplus.

Moreover, it is impossible for him to focus all his attention on lottery and lottery stores in the past few years. These few years have been used to improve his internal and external strength.

He had to find various secret methods for training his mental power, reference secrets for other secret skills, and even forge two or three peerless swords.

You must know that there is a master-level blacksmith in Xiantian City. If you want him to take action, the price will naturally be very high.

Maybe it would cost tens of thousands of taels of gold to build a peerless sword, and two or three would cost [-] to [-].

Therefore, of the 10 taels of gold tickets in hand, one-third must be reserved for myself, and the other two-thirds can be voted for the lucky draw store. (End of chapter)
