Chapter 374 Reunion after a long absence (seeking monthly ticket)

Coming out of Invincible Peak, Li Feiyu originally wanted to invite Chen Ping to visit other peak masters, but Chen Ping refused.

It is reasonable for Wei Xun to slap him away with a slap.

When they returned to Xiaozhufeng, just as they landed on the platform, they saw Yun Haitang running out with her skirt in hand.

Standing at the gate of the palace, looking at Chen Ping from a distance.

Smiling.

Then the red lips were flattened, and the big eyes became moist all of a sudden.

Despite her best efforts to control, the little expression on the face is full of emotion. Then he ran over without saying a word, and threw himself into Chen Ping's arms.

This is not Yun Haitang's usual style.

Even in the previous two reunions after a long absence, she more often came over to hug and hold hands and go into the mansion for long talks.

Chen Ping hugged her who was trembling slightly, stroked her back, and said after a long time:

"Let Madam worry."

Yun Haitang raised her head from Chen Ping's arms, wiped her eye sockets that had burst, looked up at Chen Ping slightly, and laughed again:

"My husband is Jindan Daoist."

"Go, let's go into the mansion and talk." Chen Ping wiped away her tears and pulled her inside.

At first, when Chen Ping went out, he realized that she wasn't too worried.

She knows Chen Ping.

Going to appreciate the great rivers and mountains to seek great insights is not to hunt for treasures to find great opportunities. With Chen Ping's cautious attitude, the probability of encountering fatal life-threatening danger may not be too high.

Especially 12 years ago, Yu Lingchun brought back the news that Chen Ping had realized that as long as he went out with Xiyue, Xiyue would protect him and form an alchemy.

After getting this news, her worries were reduced by more than half.

This is the best condition for forming a pill.

With Fairy Xiyue protecting her, even if the alchemy fails, she can basically save her life.

And the message Yu Lingchun gave at that time was that Chen Ping might be able to come back from the wild forest in just a few months, at most a year.

But then the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

After one year, two years, three years, and four years, there was no news from Chen Ping.

Not only that, but Xiyue, who was the number one person in the Western Wilderness, also didn't have any news.

For a Nascent Soul cultivator, it is normal to disappear for a few years, and some Nascent Souls may last for more than ten years after retreating.

The problem is that when Xiyue left, she agreed that she would come back in a few months.

For this reason, Yun Haitang frequently went to Tianyan City with the caravan, and even stayed in Tianyan City for a year during the period, but the news he got from Yu Lingchun was that there was no information yet.

This couldn't allow her to be in a hurry.

But the wild forest is so big, no one knows what Xiyue and Chen Ping are going to do in the wild forest, even Yu Lingchun and Senior Sister Guan don't know, so Yun Haitang is helpless and can only wait quietly, while constantly collecting information about the wild forest information.

What's more, when Xiyue didn't return in the sixth year, the head of Tianyan Sect went to the wild forest.

Unfortunately, still did not bring back any valid information.

Just wait.

"There are a lot of monks who ventured to the Western Wilderness. Most of these monks use Tianyan City as one of the supply points, so there are always monks going back and forth. But after asking, no one has seen Fairy Xiyue. I" Yun Haitang said The voice is a little choked up here.

Chen Ping held her hand in his palm and said lightly:

"There are so many secret realms in the wild forest, and you may not be able to encounter any of them if you just fall into one. Isn't that the case with fellow daoist? What news can you get by asking around like this."

"I know, but I just can't help it. Really, while worrying about you, I have to pretend that there is nothing wrong with me to comfort Yu Lingchun." Yun Haitang scoffed.

He lowered his head as if complaining, and rubbed his face with tears on Chen Ping's shoulder.

Deliberately rubbing tears onto Chen Ping's robe.

Yun Haitang is a very sensible person. She knows that it is not a sensible thing to enter the wild forest aimlessly. It is even more impossible for her to do it even if the head of the Tianyan Sect returns without success.

It might even backfire.

So even if you are worried, it is just a way of inquiring from all parties.

Didn't venture into the wild forest.

"It's all right now, we're all back." Chen Ping was amused by her childish approach.

"Where did you go?" Yun Haitang said with a hint of blame in his tone.

Chen Ping shared what happened to him, thought about it, and in order to make her pay more attention, he also told her about the Canglan Grassland.

After listening, Yun Haitang was extremely emotional.

Chatted about it for a while.

In the quiet room, the two had a long talk about the details of the past thirty years, and then the two had a long discussion and in-depth exchange on the harmonious way of releasing emotions.

Because it involves theoretical research, and the arguments are not small, Yun Haitang was once on pins and needles. Chen Ping is well versed in these academic theories.

But it was obviously not an easy job, so both of them were exhausted in the end.

late at night.

Yun Haitang rested on Chen Ping's arm and introduced to Chen Ping the development of the Yun family over the years.

The Yun family already has more than 80 disciples, and they have also recruited a lot of casual cultivators and guest ministers.

In terms of foundation building, apart from Yun Haitang and Yun Lingshan, there are three other Ke Qing who are attached to the Yun family to build foundations.

In addition to Sanxiu City, the Yun family originally operated a mine on their behalf in the east. The ores are mainly used for alchemy and equipment refining, not spiritual mines.

In recent years, the Yun family has managed a large piece of spiritual land in the south. These spiritual fields are all planted with Xing'an purple spiritual rice. Because the credit for this lingmi came from Chen Ping, the fertile lingtian over there was handed over to the Yun family to take care of it.

"Over the years, I have withdrawn all the spiritual stones from Xiaozhufeng for you, and I will give them to you tomorrow." When talking about the development of the Yun family, Yun Haitang mentioned.

"Yes." Chen Ping put his arms around his daughter-in-law.

Thinking about ways to make money.

Xiaozhufeng's current income is mainly from the Dieling evening primrose fruit and other spiritual materials of the same type.

This is not bad in the foundation stage.

But when it comes to Golden Core Formation, many resources have become much more expensive, and this income is not enough.

We need to develop new means of making money.

Do you want to learn the third-order talisman?

Of course you have to learn.

But drawing talismans by yourself can no longer be used as the main way to make money, and it is too time-consuming to do it by yourself.

This is why there are very few third-tier talisman masters and craftsmen.

At the Golden Core level, he is already a very rare monk in this continent, and all of them are extremely noble. It is enough to start a sect, and the worst thing is to be a deputy head, peak master or great elder. The best way to make money in such a position is to develop power and let disciples make money instead of doing everything by yourself.

Just like Wei Xun, does he still need to draw symbols and refine weapons to make money?

Totally unnecessary.

Even if they drew talismans, refined weapons, and set up formations, it was for their own use, not for sale.

This is another reason why high-quality magic weapons are rarely seen in the market.

"Choose reliable monks from the Yun Family who are talented in drawing talismans, and form a team. I'll teach them how to draw talismans." Chen Ping thought for a while.

In terms of several cultivating families at the foot of the mountain, one important reason why the Yun family is not as good as the original Liang family in Crane City is that they do not have their own core industries.

The Liang family's robe business is doing very well.

And the Yun family was more of a middleman to earn the difference. Even if they were collecting herbs or cultivating spiritual plants, they didn't make alchemy, but wholesaled the medicinal materials.

None of these make much money.

Form a core team of talisman masters, form the Yun family's own characteristics, draw these talismans to a level that others cannot do, and let outside caravans take the initiative to come to the Yun family to get goods.

...This is the long-term solution.

Yun Haitang was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Put a strand of wet blue silk behind the ear.

With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth:

"After so many years, are you finally willing to intervene in the affairs of the Yun family? Of course, I have been waiting for my husband's words."

"I also intervened before." Chen Ping blushed.

In fact, as the head of the Yun family, he has rarely interfered in the affairs of the Yun family in the past few years.

The main reason is that the strength is not enough.

I don't want to provoke too many fetters and get too much karma.

But it's different now.

Now he is at the second level of Jindan, and he is almost invincible in the Qingyun domain. Even in the few small sects around, there are no monks in the late Jindan stage.

In this case, you can start to rely on power for your own benefit, instead of fighting alone all the time.

The Yun family is currently his most trustworthy force.

It is also a ready-to-use force.

Now that the decision has been made, Chen Ping and Yun Haitang immediately made a total calculation, discussing the scale, talent quality, loyalty and so on.

The next day, Yun Haitang left Xiaozhufeng to arrange this matter.

Chen Ping summoned Yunfeng who was halfway up the mountain.

Seeing Yunfeng again, Chen Ping couldn't help being stunned for a moment... After not seeing him for many years, Yunfeng was already gray-haired, showing his old appearance.

Seeing Chen Ping's eyes, Yunfeng smiled easily:

"Thanks to the Peak Lord, this junior is over a hundred years old. If he can live to this age, even if he returns to Taoism, he is already at the end of his life. This junior has no regrets."

It seemed that he was worried that Chen Ping would think too much, so he hurriedly said:

"But don't worry, Peak Master, the younger generation will grow old and strong, and it will be fine to live another ten years."

Chen Ping nodded to signal him to sit down.

That's what I said-'no regrets', but when it comes to this, who doesn't want to go further?

Whether you can realize it or not, whether you can build a foundation is not something that you can get if you want it. For the vast majority of monks, what is important here is not that hard work will pay off.

Even others can't help much.

Otherwise, Yu Qingyi wouldn't have taken such risks back then.

"Let's talk about the current spiritual planting situation in Xiaozhufeng in general." Chen Ping said.

In recent years, Yunfeng has more than tripled the area of ​​the spiritual field under the mountainside. Currently, the annual net profit of butterfly spirit evening primrose and other spiritual materials has reached 40 top-grade spiritual stones.

Considering that the ecology of Xiaozhufeng will not be damaged, it is not suitable to further expand the area of ​​cultivated land.

In addition, some rare tree species Lingzhi Yunfeng in Houshan also reported one by one, including the value and planting status of various spiritual trees.

"Peak Master, this junior has a suggestion regarding the cultivation of spiritual materials." Yunfeng hesitated and said.

"You speak."

Yunfeng hurriedly said:

"In recent years, in addition to researching and cultivating Butterfly Evening Primrose, the juniors have also tried to cultivate a lot of medicinal materials that are sensitive to water quality, and have gained some experience and results. But spiritual planting pays attention to winning by quantity. The current planting of Xiaozhufeng The area is still too small. The younger generation proposed to reclaim wasteland outside the city. For example, the Yun family planted Xing'an Lingmi in the south. As long as the planting area is expanded, more income will be obtained."

This is not impossible.

But it needs to be weighed carefully.

If you want to plant spiritual materials on a large scale outside the city, you must first solve the problem of water quality and water source.

At least one more pair of Muhong carp had to be bred.

"Let me think about this matter and discuss it later." Chen Ping thought for a while and said.

"yes."

After communicating for a while, before finally leaving, Chen Ping saw that Yunfeng hesitated to speak, and asked:

"Director Yun, is there anything else?"

Hearing this, Yunfeng smiled awkwardly and said:

"The junior has a private matter, but, just, I don't know if I should talk about it?"

"Tell me." Chen Ping didn't know what happened to Yunfeng.

Yunfeng hurriedly said:

"A few years ago, this junior knew that there was no hope of establishing a foundation, so he married a woman, and now he has a son and a daughter. The daughter is taken by her mother to work in Yunfu. The son of this junior is quite up-to-date, and he is quite good at cultivating spiritual plants. Talented. Therefore, the younger generation has always brought him by his side, and he is now 21 years old."

"I am afraid that this junior will not be able to serve the Peak Master for many years. I wonder if the dog of this junior will be lucky enough to continue to share the burden for the Peak Master? Oh, by the way, that kid is called Yun Shan. If the Peak Master does not dislike it, this junior can wait for the Peak Master to be free." Time to bring it up to visit the peak master."

Chen Ping finally understood.

Yunfeng was trying to find a way out for his son.

And it's not just about finding a chance to stay on Xiaozhufeng, but looking at him, he actually hopes to inherit his father's career.

Chen Ping didn't care about these things, the point was that the level was sufficient.

Not only the cultivation level of Lingzhi, but also the management level.

"Write it down. Let him work hard first. Whether he can even be qualified for the position of supervisor mainly depends on his ability, and other factors are secondary factors." Chen Ping didn't say anything to death.

"Thank you, Peak Master." Yunfeng said excitedly.

From Chen Ping's words, he heard that Chen Ping did not reject the fact that two generations of his father and son were working here.

As for the ability Chen Ping said, it seems very reasonable to Yunfeng, he quickly said:

"Peak Master, don't worry, this kid has no other skills. There is absolutely no problem in cultivating Lingzhi. His talent is stronger than that of the younger generation. As for the ability to manage people, the younger generation still has time to train him. If he really has no ability by then , this junior will never be ashamed to mention half a word in front of the Peak Master."

"Go and do your work." Chen Ping nodded.

"Then don't bother the peak master, this junior bid farewell."

...

After Yunfeng left, Chen Ping returned to the quiet room, poured out all the original ore of Lingshi brought back from the Canglan grassland, and piled them up in the quiet room.

Then he took out the spirit stone given by Yun Haitang and cleaned it up.

A total of 1050 top-grade spirit stones.

This is Xiaozhufeng's income in the past 30 years, including the Xing'an Lingmi's sect rewards.

There is also a booklet in the storage bag, which records some record details.

The income is mainly the income of Butterfly Evening Primrose.

'Um? '

‘Yun Haitang actually allocates some profits to me every year for the income from Yunjia Mine and Zimi Lingtian? '

'hiss. '

'This bitch...'

‘No wonder there are more than 1,050 high-grade spirit stones left. '

Chen Ping took a look and found that this part of the profit was given to 30 top-grade spirit stones every year.

This is not small.

Both the Yun Family Mine and the Lingtian belonged to the Lingxiao Sect in essence, not the Yun Family. The Yun Family was just in custody, and the profits allocated to the Yun Family would not be too much in the end.

Moreover, the Yun family has a big business, and there are many places to spend. Just give him 30 high-grade spirit stones every year. Actually he did nothing.

He put the spirit stone into the storage bag and continued to look at the booklet.

In terms of expenses, it is mainly the cost of purchasing, cultivating, and nourishing some rare spiritual trees on the mountain behind Xiaozhu Peak.

This cost is not small, and almost all of Die Ling Evening Primrose's income is covered.

Chen Ping closed the booklet.

Counting the remaining spirit stones from before, he now has 1071 top-grade spirit stones and 1623 middle-grade spirit stones.

At the same time, calculate the current annual income for yourself:

The income of Lingzhi is about 40 top-grade spirit stones per year.

Yunjia Mine and Lingmi earn 30 top-grade Lingshi per year.

A total of 70 top-grade spirit stones are earned every year.

Not many.

Fortunately, after the Mountain Spirit Tree took shape, there was no need to invest heavily anymore.

You have to continue to open source.
