The reason why Xiaoshui Sect was able to develop so rapidly in one hundred and fifty years was not because of how powerful Xiaoshui Star Lord himself was (there were also Mahayana cultivators above the Dongxu stage), but because of his extremely sharp, flexible, innovative and forward-looking business mind.

The business model created includes but is not limited to the slave trade - from selling shiploads of Yaksha slaves in Hezhou, West Africa, to growing crops and mining spirit stone veins in the New World.

Futures - Establish weather monitoring stations and intelligence stations across all continents, use massive data and rigorous analysis to predict the spiritual energy tidal cycles of each state, and stockpile spiritual stones and plants with corresponding attributes in advance.

Insurance - Launch risk hedging financial products such as natural disaster insurance, inner demon insurance, infatuation insurance, enemy revenge insurance, murder and treasure robbery insurance, etc.

If a VIP customer fails to survive the heavenly tribulation and his cultivation level regresses, he can get a large amount of compensation. If he is killed by the heavenly tribulation, a Mahayana cultivator will personally come to help retrieve his remaining soul and spirit to ensure that he will be reincarnated into a wealthy family.

Real estate - cutting off fragments of ancient secret realms and implanting them into mountains, rivers, lakes and seas to artificially create cave paradises, which are then sold to other sects or royal families at high prices; customizing tombs for ghost cultivators, and providing caves for multiple people to rent for low-level casual cultivators who cannot afford to buy a single paradise;

If they came across unruly people who refused to sell their land, they would just use the souls of the Yaksha people who died in the slave trade to refine them into an army of ghost soldiers, and then kill the unruly people under the cover of darkness, and claim to the outside world that it was the ghost soldiers passing through or a natural disaster.

The Xiaoshui Sect, or the Xiaoshui Group in the guise of an old-fashioned sect, has risen to the top three in the human world at a dazzling speed through these various business means.

During this process, Xiaoshui Xingjun and Miaoyin Jushi can be said to have worked hand in hand. Neither of the couple was a good person - it was Miaoyin Jushi who turned the wronged souls of the Yaksha tribe into ghost soldiers and promised them that "if they work for a hundred years, they can be reincarnated and the Xiaoshui Sect's kindness will never be repaid."

In addition, she also concocted concepts such as school district housing, pre-sale system of commercial housing, common area, and real estate speculation groups.

"Some things are not worth four ounces if they are not weighed, but if they are weighed, they cannot be weighed even a thousand pounds."

Zhang Wei rubbed his temples with a headache. Apart from the love-brained mind of his youth, Xiao Shui Xingjun had the temperament of a rough and tumble hero who had made his fortune from scratch, and his business methods were wild and unrestrained.

The evidence in these materials is enough to be shot. Ahem, he has been shot to death hundreds of times by lightning.

"With all this evidence, it's hard to kick Miaoyin out without any harm. She and you are not only husband and wife, but also business partners of Xiaoshui Group during its development period. She knows what you know."

Yuan Zhixia read the information over and over again, while quickly calculating in his mind.

In this world, spiritual energy is equivalent to water, and spiritual stones are equivalent to industrial blood and oil.

Xiaoshui Sect has a large number of branches under its name, covering multiple industries and fields. For Qingzhou (a land area of ​​8 million square kilometers and a population of 300 million), it is like Samsung Group to South Korea.

The wealth is enormous.

"In terms of spirit stones, the total assets of Xiaoshui Sect are about 110 million spirit stones."

Yuan Zhixia asked: "What are your psychological expectations for the assets to be divided over to Miaoyin?"

Xiao Shui Xingjun gritted his teeth and said, "Forty million. No more."

————

"Seventy million, no less."

At the same time, Miaoyin, a lay Buddhist in the lounge on the other side of the Xianting Court, also spoke coldly.

“.”

Howard and Zhongtian Beiji looked at each other and sighed helplessly.

"Miaoyin, I know you are anxious, but please don't be anxious yet."

Haye said calmly: "The lawyer on the other side is also professional. If you follow the conventional thinking in the divorce case, you will definitely not get the compensation you want.

I estimate that Xiaoshui's psychological expectation for property division should be between 35 million and 45 million.

After all, he is the leader of the Xiaoshui Sect, and nominally most of his assets belong to him personally, and are not affected by his marriage."

"no."

Miaoyin Lay Buddhist decisively rejected the offer, "At least half of it! Or I'll take 40 million and he'll give me his life elixir. Otherwise, we'll go our separate ways."

Because the human world experienced the severance of the connection between heaven and earth, the spiritual energy has declined significantly compared to three thousand years ago. Ordinary cultivators will share a golden elixir with their Taoist partner.

After becoming super-rich, Xiaoshui and Miaoyin used spiritual medicine to cultivate each of them into a perfect golden elixir of their own.

And the original natal golden elixir was not lost, and it existed in the qi sea of ​​Xiaoshui Star Lord as a witness to their love.

Haye paused. The task that the players received was to help Miaoyin win the case.

Unlike criminal cases, divorce cases do not have clear winners and losers. They mainly depend on the subjective feelings of the protagonist himself.

If possible, Haye even wanted to collude with the other side's Ants and others, and the two groups of lawyers would each persuade their clients to accept a 50-50 split, so that neither side would lose.

The lounge fell silent. In the silence, Ada, who had not spoken much since the beginning, suddenly asked: "Miaoyin Layman, let me ask again, why are you determined to divorce Xiaoshui Xingjun?

Judging from the information, your relationship with him had already become less intense, or even broken down, at least ten years ago.

For people of your class, the advantages of maintaining a marriage while maintaining a physical union and having separate lives far outweigh the disadvantages."

In response to this question, Miaoyin Lay Buddhist paused and said calmly: "One hundred spirit stones can buy a ship of strong Yaksha slaves, one thousand spirit stones can hire a casual cultivator to kill people, and ten thousand spirit stones are the entire wealth of a small sect.

I have made so much money with him, there is no need to put myself in a difficult position any more."

“That’s not a good enough reason.”

Ada continued in a blunt tone, "I need to know your true thoughts. Stop lying. It's a waste of time and opportunity. It's a stupid behavior."

Damn, this young man.

Howard looked stunned, and Haye, who was used to the world, almost couldn't hold back his expression.

As a Lv5 athlete, the gap in strength between Ada and Miaoyin is like the gap between Adrian and Bolt in the field of sprinting.

Who is Adrian? He is Haye's next-door neighbor, a 100-year-old Free French veteran of World War II who suffers from cerebral thrombosis and hemiplegia.

"How dare you talk to me like that?"

Miaoyin laywoman narrowed her eyes slightly. The terrifying aura released by the Dongxu period monk suppressed Howard and Haye, making them unable to move.

Not only the outer body, but also the blood vessels, muscles, and even blood flow and heartbeat inside all came to a standstill.

Severe brain hypoxia caused the vision of the eyes to gradually darken.

"I'm just explaining,"

Ada looked directly into Miaoyin's eyes without fear and said calmly, "If you really want to win this case, don't hide it from your lawyer."

“.”

Miaoyin stared at Ada straightly, and after a long while she withdrew her gaze and her aura of coercion, and her tone returned to being cold, "I want to divorce Xiaoshui for another reason.

I have been in charge of the Xiaoshui Sect's spiritual energy futures business. Based on the data accumulated by the weather monitoring station over the years, I estimate that in the next five years or even twenty years, there will be a spiritual energy resurgence in the human world that will last for a thousand years.

By then, the maximum life span of a monk will be increased by at least three to four hundred years."

Miaoyin, who only has thirty years left to live, might be able to accept a marriage that is physically together but spiritually apart, but now that she has the chance to live several hundred more years, she might as well divorce directly and enjoy life with her huge wealth.

"I see."

Since Miaoyin was no longer hiding it, Ada nodded, took out a stack of documents from the tall piles, and put it on the table.

".The cave house in the Cumulus Cave of Daowu Mountain?"

Miaoyin frowned. "I remember this cave paradise development project. The ground vein test failed, so the project was cancelled. Is there any problem?"

"In the same year when the project was cancelled, nine thousand spirit stones disappeared from a business under the name of Xiaoshui Sect in small amounts and multiple times."

Aida said calmly: "If I'm not mistaken, the cave should have been secretly built under the instruction of Xiaoshui Xingjun. There lives someone in it that Xiaoshui Xingjun doesn't want the outside world to find out."
