Family Cultivation: My Comprehension Can Be Stored

After getting the secret method of cultivating avatars in "For Jie", Chen Daoxuan said goodbye to Zhang Yu without further delay.

He watched Chen Daoxuan leave.

There was a thoughtful look in Zhang Yu's eyes.

......

Southwest waters of Wanxinghai.

Shuanghu Island in Guang'an Prefecture.

A ray of light crossed the sky and landed outside the mountain protection formation on Shuanghu Island.

When he opened the protective formation, Chen Daoxuan's figure was like a bubble merging into the water curtain, into the fourth-order protective formation.

Back at Shuanghu Island, Chen Daoxuan immediately expanded his consciousness.

In an instant, he locked on the target.

The Council Hall of the Chen Family on Shuanghu Island.

Chen Daolian only felt a headache these days.

Since she was appointed by the young patriarch as the finance minister of the Chen family and took charge of the financial power of the family, monks of the Dao and Fu generation in the clan have come to her door one after another, asking her for funds from various departments.

For important departments such as the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Education, and the Institute of Magical Instruments, Chen Daolian naturally did not dare to delay, and the funds that should be given will not be less.

However, some departments whose framework had just been set up also asked her for funds, which caused Chen Daolian a headache.

Especially the spiritual management department that the family has just established.

The Lingmai Management Department, referred to as the Spirit Management Department, is responsible for managing all the spiritual channels within the Chen family's sphere of influence, including the use, maintenance, and promotion of the spiritual channels, as well as the collection of the spiritual channel tax.

It can be said that this is a department with considerable power in the Chen family.

Not to mention the use, maintenance and promotion of the spiritual veins, just collecting the spiritual vein tax gives the spiritual management department great power.

Actually.

The spiritual tax of the Chen family's spiritual management department is a name learned from the Qianyuan Jianzong.

As the ruler of Wan Xinghai, Qianyuan Jianzong, in addition to the areas directly under its own jurisdiction, has adopted the method of spiritual vein tax for the fiefs of various states to tax the various immortal clans in Wan Xinghai.

The so-called spiritual pulse tax is to levy the tax burden according to the level of each spiritual pulse.

Qianyuan Jianzong's spiritual vein tax is collected every ten years, and the tax starts from the third-order spiritual vein.

Based on the fact that the Chen family currently has two third-order spiritual veins.

Each third-order spiritual vein needs to pay a spiritual vein tax of 100,000 spiritual stones to Qianyuan Jianzong every year.

Ten years is the spiritual tax of two million spiritual stones.

This tax burden is not trivial.

This is also the reason why the Yang family of Guang'an Prefecture clearly has the ability to cultivate fourth-order spiritual veins, but has not cultivated them.

Because the annual tax on the fourth-order spiritual veins is as high as one million spirit stones, ten million spirit stones in ten years.

Ten million spirit stones are enough to buy a Zifu Pill and add a Zifu cultivator to the family.

Naturally, the Yang family didn't want to waste it in vain.

Only a big family with a profound background like the Zhou family can bear the tax burden of the fourth-order spiritual veins.

The Lingmai tax levied by the Chen Jialing Management Department is mainly due to the difference in the objects levied compared with the Lingmai tax of Qianyuan Jianzong.

Qianyuan Jianzong levied taxes on the immortal cultivators with spiritual veins, while the Chen family levied taxes on merchants and loose cultivators within their sphere of influence.

In fact, every fairy city has such a tax department.

Such as the immortal city of Guang'an Prefecture.

The Chen family's business of magic tools in Sanxiufang City has to pay taxes to the Zhou family.

When the Yang family formed the Guang'an Immortal League, it was precisely because of this interest.

In the whole Guang'an Prefecture, only the Xiancheng family of Guang'an Prefecture was the only one. The taxes paid by the loose cultivators of Guang'an Prefecture and the families, except for the fixed spiritual pulse tax for the Qianyuan Sword Sect, all belonged to the Zhou family.

This naturally made the other big clans headed by the Yang family dissatisfied.

And now, the Chen family has also established the Guanhai Xiancheng, so naturally they also have the interests of this part in their hands.

......

Escape light descended.

Chen Daoxuan's figure appeared in the side hall of the Council Hall.

Raised his legs and stepped into the side hall.

After several turnovers, Chen Daoxuan found Chen Daolian who was working at a desk.

Beside Chen Daolian, there are several young maids who are helping her sort out various accounts.

"Young patriarch!"

When a maid saw Chen Daoxuan, she was stunned for a moment, and then she saluted in surprise.

Hearing the voice of the maid, Chen Daolian, who was so busy, raised her head.

When she saw Chen Daoxuan, she quickly stood up and said in surprise, "Young Patriarch, are you back?"

Chen Daoxuan smiled and nodded, then waved to the maid in the house.

See you.

The maidservants bowed and slowly retreated.

Chen Daoxuan walked to the chair opposite Chen Daolian and sat down, waved his hand and said, "What are you looking at me for? Sit down."

Hearing this, Chen Daolian smiled slyly and sat down beautifully.

"Looking at your frowning face just now, what's wrong with the family's financial power?"

Sure enough.

When Chen Daolian heard this, her face wrinkled again, and she said coquettishly, "Young Patriarch, why don't you transfer me back to the pharmaceutical factory, which is much more worry-free than here."

"You,"

Chen Daoxuan pointed at the tip of Chen Daolian's nose, shook his head and said, "I want to save my heart, there are not many people in the family who have the qualifications, ability, and can make me feel at ease.

And you are one of them, so you must manage the family finances for me. "

Hearing Chen Daoxuan's praise, Chen Daolian's originally swaying mind gradually became firmer.

"Um."

She nodded forcefully at Chen Daoxuan.

Chen Daoxuan smiled and said, "Tell me, what difficulties did you encounter?"

"It's the Spirit Management Department..."

Chen Daolian quickly explained the problems encountered by the Spiritual Management Department.

"What do you mean, the Spirit Management Department's collection of Spirit Vein tax from loose cultivators is blocked?"

"right!"

Chen Daolian nodded, "The Ministry of Spiritual Management has asked my Ministry of Finance for money these days, saying that there is no money to be promoted to the Spiritual Vessel!"

Speaking of this, Chen Daolian was a little angry.

The spiritual management department is responsible for collecting the tax on the use of spiritual veins from merchants and loose cultivators. It is strange that they have no money.

Actually, Chen Daolian didn't know.

Every year, the maintenance of each spiritual meridian in the Chen family requires a considerable loss of spiritual stones.

And cultivating and promoting spiritual veins is even more terrifying.

a decade ago.

Shuanghu Island is thousands of miles in radius, and it is a barren place. Not to mention spiritual veins, there are not even a few duckweed-like spiritual eyes.

In just ten years.

Not only Shuanghu Island has a third-order spiritual vein, but the neighboring Sequoia Island has also cultivated a third-order spiritual vein.

In addition, there are first-order and second-order spiritual veins in the surrounding thousands of miles of sea.

The number of spiritual veins in the Chen family's hands has reached three digits.

Wanting to cultivate so many spiritual veins in such a short period of time, it was a huge amount of spiritual stones that fell down.

It can be said.

The Spirit Management Department is the most expensive department among all the departments of the Chen family.

The newly appointed Chen Daolian is not aware of the consumption of the spiritual management department. As the person who controls the overall situation of the Chen family, Chen Daoxuan naturally knows how terrifying it is for the Chen family to cultivate spiritual veins.

He thought about it for a while, and said, "The Spirit Management Department directly collects taxes from loose cultivators, and loose cultivators who are accustomed to their freedom are naturally unwilling.

In fact, we can use another way to collect taxes from the loose cultivators. "

"Another way?"

Chen Daolian was slightly taken aback, not knowing what Chen Daoxuan meant.

"How does the Spiritual Management Department collect the Spiritual Vein tax from the scattered cultivators now?"

"Like the merchants, according to the length of time the loose cultivator stays in each spiritual vein, it will be levied once a year."

Hear this.

Chen Daoxuan shook his head.

Loose cultivators are deducted to death one by one, how can they obediently pay this tax.

When you really want to levy taxes, others will run away in advance.

Anyway, all the immortal cities in Guang'an Prefecture are now absorbing loose cultivators in order to increase the popularity of the immortal cities.

The Chen family still has the energy to catch these loose cultivators who run away without paying taxes in advance?

If the scattered cultivators were pushed into a hurry, they would run away collectively. Maybe Guanhai Xiancheng would follow in the footsteps of Cangzhou Xiancheng and become a ghost town.

Therefore, it is not advisable to impose taxes.

Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan had an idea and said: "Obviously, since this kind of taxation is not advisable, we can use another method, such as selling the Lingfu to the loose cultivators!"

"Selling the Lingfu?"

Chen Daolian was stunned, not knowing what medicine Chen Daoxuan sold in the gourd.

"But the young patriarch, according to the rules of the major immortal cities, the Lingfu has always been rented but not sold. Does selling the Lingfu mean selling the spiritual vein? At that time, will this spiritual vein belong to my Chen family, or is it a loose cultivator? ?"

Chen Daolian said anxiously, "Besides, the price of Lingfu is high, how can ordinary scattered cultivators come up with so many spiritual stones at once?"

Only Chen Daoxuan could think of such a prodigal behavior.

Seeing Chen Daolian's eager appearance, Chen Daoxuan smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry."

He cleared his throat and said slowly, "The price of Lingfu is high, we can let the loose cultivators pay in installments."

"installment?"

Chen Daolian was attracted by Chen Daoxuan's new term.

Although she didn't know the meaning of installment payment, she could guess a general idea.

"What the young patriarch means is that a loose cultivator only needs to pay a small amount of spiritual stones every year to have a spiritual residence in the sea-viewing fairy city?"

"right!"

Chen Daoxuan nodded.

"But, what if the loose cultivators don't pay later?"

"Then according to the contract, my Chen family has the right to take back the Lingfu."

"This......"

Chen Daolian frowned. She felt that this approach was unreliable, but she didn't know how to refute it.

Because for the wandering loose cultivators, it can be said that it is the common wish of all loose cultivators to have a spiritual land of cultivation that is entirely their own.

In fact, scattered cultivators are the lowest level in the world of immortal cultivation.

Their life was much more difficult than before the Chen family made a fortune.

Not to mention cultivating the spiritual veins by oneself, just to spend a few days in the major immortal cities, it is like cutting flesh for them.

Especially before the Guang'an Immortal League was established.

The days of the loose cultivators were even more miserable. Often, the loose cultivators would go to the immortal city of Guang'an Mansion to rub their spiritual veins during the day, and at night, they would be driven out of the immortal city of Guang'an Mansion by the cultivators of the Zhou family.

After all, not every loose cultivator has the courage to go to the battlefield of Izumo to try to gain a better future.

"If I remember correctly, most of the Lingfu in Guanhai Xiancheng are vacant, right?"

"seems like it."

Chen Daolian nodded. Although she was not specifically responsible for the management of Guanhai Xiancheng, she still heard about the vacancy of the Lingfu in Guanhai Xiancheng.

That's why.

It is because the scattered cultivator dislikes paying a large sum of spirit stones every year, but can only rent the spirit mansion, which is very uneconomical.

Generally, only the children of the family who have been running business in Guanhai Xiancheng for a long time will rent the Lingfu in Guanhai Xiancheng.

"Look, the scattered cultivators have such a great demand for the spiritual mansion, and our spiritual mansion is so vacant. Tell me, is this a waste?"

"Young patriarch, no matter how much you waste, those spiritual palaces belong to my Chen family!"

"You, take a long-term view. Lingfu is indeed a resource for us, but it is not the most scarce resource for my Chen family."

Hearing this, Chen Daolian lowered her head and thought.

Chen Daolian can be valued by Chen Daoxuan, and she is naturally a smart person. She quickly understands the deep meaning of Chen Daoxuan.

Chen Daoxuan looked at her: "What do you think is the most in-demand resource in my Chen family?"

"A monk?"

"That's right!"

Chen Daoxuan immediately showed a teachable expression, and then he said solemnly: "Now that the Cangzhou Business Alliance is newly established, the major families in Cangzhou seem to be in harmony on the surface, but in fact, everyone wants to fight for the leadership of the Cangzhou Business Alliance. .

The Zhou family is like this, the Zhang family in Jin'an Mansion is like this, and my Chen family is naturally not far behind.

And the most important thing to grasp the dominance of the Cangzhou Business Alliance is not the so-called voting rights of the Cangzhou Business Alliance. It is just a false name and has no practical effect.

For my Chen family, the most important thing is to build Guanhai Immortal City as prosperous as the original Cangzhou Immortal City, and even form a master-servant attachment relationship with the major immortal cities in Cangzhou.

In order to do this, the scale of my Guanhai Xiancheng must be expanded by at least ten times!

Do you calculate, how many loose cultivators are needed to achieve this? "

"Hush!"

After a little calculation, Chen Daolian only felt that her scalp was numb.

At present, Guanhai Xiancheng has nearly 500,000 permanent cultivators, although it is not comparable to the scale of nearly a million monks in Guang'an Palace Xiancheng, and even compared with Linghui Xiancheng, the two are only on par.

But you must know that Guanhai Immortal City is the newest immortal city in Guang'an Prefecture.

Moreover, the background of the Chen family is also the shallowest among the major families in Guang'an Prefecture.

It is a miracle that Guanhai Xiancheng can develop to this point in such a short period of time.

"But, what do we need so many monks for? After all, the loose monks are still too poor. Although there are many of them, their spending power is far less than that of the family monks."

"On the surface, that's true."

Chen Daoxuan nodded, "But think about it, what if they were allowed to enter the magic weapon factory in the future?"

"A magic weapon factory?"

Hear the words.

Chen Daolian was completely stunned.

Even after the establishment of the pharmaceutical factory, the profit of the magic tool factory has fallen far behind that of the pharmaceutical factory, but the Chen family's magic tool factory is, after all, a weapon for the Chen family to make a fortune.

Just let loose cultivators enter the factory...

"But Young Patriarch, wouldn't this reveal the family's secrets?"

"It is true that a part of it will be exposed~www.wuxiahere.com~ but as long as our strength is strong enough, this risk is completely bearable."

Chen Daoxuan paused, "The biggest secret of the magic weapon factory lies in the Rongling furnace. As long as the refining method of the Rongling furnace is guarded, there is no fear of exposure. In Wan Xinghai, which powerful family has no secrets?

Only the weak will do everything possible to keep secrets, the strong do not need it.

Besides, it's not just letting loose cultivators enter the factory right now, what are you anxious about? "

Chen Daoxuan shook his head and smiled, "Daolian, you have to remember that as the helm of the family, in addition to the immediate interests, everything we do has to plan for the future.

The issuance of banknotes is like this, and the same is true for Guanhai Xiancheng to absorb loose cultivators. "

said.

Chen Daoxuan waved his hand.

An image of a map of Cangzhou appeared in front of the two of them.

Chen Daoxuan stretched out his hand and said, "Look, this is all the immortal cities in Cangzhou."

On the map, around Guanhai Xiancheng, red dots are densely distributed throughout Cangzhou.

Among them, the red dot in Guanhai Xiancheng is the largest and brightest.

These red dots are connected by dotted lines. These dotted lines are the routes of the large transport ships of the Cangzhou Business Alliance.

"When the time is right, these immortal cities and their families will become the raw material supply and commodity export places for my Chen family.

At that time, you will know that the truly terrifying plunder in this world is often without blood. "
