Do you want to do business secretly? Doing business is about facing the public. Competition among peers. In this world shrouded by monks, it is easy for you to be exposed behind the scenes. No casual monk can bear the consequences of being discovered, so this way of making money is basically broken.
Being an official retinue of magicians is a way to make money, but this industry is basically monopolized by the power of sect groups, and ordinary casual practitioners can't squeeze in. For example, if the Tianyu Sect behind Feng Lingbo puts a little pressure, Feng Lingbo Is it possible to recruit casual cultivators
Being a retinue of mages for rich people is also a way to make money, but which big family is not under the influence of the official government, and which big family dares to do something that the official does not agree to? It's more like having your home confiscated and your family wiped out.
Therefore, in the secular world, it is basically impossible for casual cultivators to have financial resources.
It is allowed to do business in the spiritual world, but there are rules and restrictions. It is called to ensure the fairness of transactions and to protect the interests of buyers!
What kind of protection law? Unrestricted merchants are not allowed to open shops.
What is an unfettered merchant? That is to say, merchants who open shops must have the ability to be restrained. You cannot sell fake goods and deceive customers and then leave. Who will the buyers turn to to seek justice? Therefore, you must open a shop in the name of a sect. Once something goes wrong, a monk who can run away cannot escape from the temple. If you run away, the sect behind you will be responsible for your actions. Who asked your sect to train such a deceptive disciple? , if your sect is not responsible, who will be responsible
This statement was reasonable and no one could say it was unreasonable, so the power of the casual cultivator to open a shop was deprived again.
Of course, no matter how powerful the Alliance of Cultivation World is, it cannot control you hiding in every nook and cranny and secretly doing private transactions.
But it doesn't matter. There is no protection for anything that happens in private transactions, and the buyer and seller bear their own responsibilities.
However, how many customers can be obtained from private transactions in other places? Most still hope to come to a place like Star Reaching City to face a wider source of customers.
There are a lot of private transactions in Star Reaching City, but when buying the same thing at the same price, why don't people go to a store with higher security, so you can only sell it at a low price before someone will buy it.
But again, if private transactions are not protected, they will face a dangerous situation. Once the buyer and seller feel that they are sure, they are likely to take advantage of others. I feel like I can kill you, why should I pay you? Or knowing that you have all this money, I can kill you, so why should I give you your things back? If I steal your money, you can continue to sell your things to the next person.
People who are poor and have short ambitions tend to go to extremes, especially casual cultivators.
This can be described as a vicious cycle. The reputation of casual cultivators is getting worse and worse, and the rules given by Piaomiao Pavilion are becoming more reasonable and harder to deny.
There is also a situation where colleagues are enemies. What you sell as a casual cultivator is the same as what my sect sells, but you sell it at a lower price? How do I do business? Anyway, your transaction is not protected, and it is normal for someone in the sect to disguise their identity and come to mess with you.
Due to various restrictions, casual cultivators will either do illegal activities with their heads high, or suffer death if found out. Or you can only go to some dangerous places where mortals cannot collect spiritual herbs, such as trying your luck on overseas islands. Where mortals can visit, it is unlikely that they will miss something.
This creates another vicious cycle. As a monk, you waste a lot of energy on this kind of thing, so you don't have much energy to practice. Naturally, you are behind the progress of the disciples in the sect.
All things considered, which casual cultivator doesn’t want to become a member of the sect
However, it is not that easy to open a sect. There are a bunch of entry conditions. The thirty tasks to prove one's strength can wipe out most people. Looking for introductions and guarantees from other sects can also wipe out a large number of people. Finally, There are very few people who are qualified to establish a sect.
Even Niu Youdao had to sigh at this rule. He felt that this Piaomiao Pavilion was a bit immoral. A group of casual cultivators were already miserable. You also created thirty tasks to make a group of casual cultivators work hard to help you eliminate the 'evil and crooked ways' list. There are probably many dissidents who have killed some people who were not satisfied with the mission but did it in vain.
It can be said that there are people doing the hard work, and there are people who actively help clean up the environment without having to pay wages.
Those who have crossed the threshold of a sect can enjoy the environment created to some extent by casual cultivators and have the leisure to make money and earn cultivation resources.
Niu Youdao couldn't say he had any sympathy for this.
He knows very well that things that everyone needs will inevitably become scarce, and it will inevitably lead to a situation where there are more monks and less meat. No one can change this situation. There are always people who want to occupy more resources. There is no way for people to develop their style and give up to others. Even if there are people, they are only a minority and cannot change the overall environment.
And Black Peony found herself so respectfully and humbly, just because she wanted to get the admission ticket.
So Niu Youdao smiled and said, "Why do you think I can help you?"
Black Peony wanted to say, you look so young, you have an entourage around you, and you live in such an expensive place, it is strange that you have no power and background behind you, even a fool can see that. Of course she wouldn't say that, "Master Dao has an extraordinary aura. He is someone who can help me at first glance."
Niu Youdao laughed dumbly, "There are many guests staying here, why are they targeting me?"
Young people are inexperienced and easy to persuade. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't even be given a chance to talk. Aren't we sitting together now
Black Mudan had this thought in her head, and suddenly she was confused. Does this person seem to be inexperienced? The taste in those eyes was very deep.
"Intuition, feeling, women sometimes trust their own feelings." Black Peony gave this explanation.
Niu Youdao smiled again and looked at the sullen Yuan Fang, "Old Xiong, are you unhappy?"
Black Peony was speechless, why did she change the topic again
Yuan Fang hesitated to speak. He looked at the black peony here. After all, he didn't say anything and shook his head.
Niu Youdao raised his chin towards Yuanfang, "Black Mudan, look, my companion is obviously not happy about this."
Yuanfang was stunned, glanced at Black Peony, and muttered in his heart that it had nothing to do with her.
It is naturally difficult to ask for help. Black Mudan knew this truth, so she forced herself to smile and said: "Master Tao, we won't let you do this favor in vain. If you have any orders from now on, we will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Niu Youdao: "It sounds nice, but it's useless. I guess no sect would take such a risk for someone who doesn't know anything about it, right? One hundred thousand gold coins is not a small amount to put anywhere. You have to collect the money first. It's up to you." For the sake of being so polite..." He smiled at the food and wine on the table, "I can help you find a recommended sect."
Black Peony thought, I can get so much money, why should I ask you? With a bitter smile on his face, he said: "Master Tao, it's really not easy to be a casual cultivator. One hundred thousand gold coins is too huge for us, and we really can't come up with it. It's better to do this. As long as things are done, we have the corresponding As a condition of earning, you must make up for this money, treat it as reward and don’t need to return it!”
Niu Youdao shook his head slightly: "Even if your application is successful, with your cultivation, is it possible for a small start-up sect to earn 100,000 gold coins in three years? If you collapse within three years, you will not be able to make more than 100,000 gold coins." , doesn’t the guarantor admit that he is unlucky? If possible, tell me, how can you make money? Open a shop? What kind of business is so profitable? Become a mage’s retinue? Let’s not talk about whether you can compete with other sects. , can you find an employer that pays high remuneration for your cultivation?"
Black Peony bit her lip and thought of a reason.
Niu Youdao said again: "Hesitation means you have no choice. It's best not to find reasons to fool me!"
Black Peony gritted her teeth and said, "Indeed, even if things are done, we can't guarantee that we will definitely earn 100,000 gold coins within three years. How about this, Master Dao, you set the conditions and we will see if we can do it."
"Am I making conditions?" Niu Youdao looked at her with a questioning look, as if you were sure
Black Mudan nodded, "Master Tao, you might as well come and listen, any dirty work is fine."
Niu Youdao raised the corner of his mouth and said, "There is something you can do." He waved to Black Mudan.
Black Peony immediately leaned towards him expectantly, thinking that he was going to whisper a secret message, so her ears gave him the message.
Unexpectedly, Niu Youdao gently reached out and touched her face.
Black Mudan was startled, and quickly retracted, looking at him in confusion, as if she had guessed what request he was going to make.
Sure enough, Niu Youdao looked at her and said, "She looks pretty good. Let's do this. I'll live here for half a year, and you sleep with me for half a year. I'll help you solve your problems."
Black Peony suddenly stood up with an angry look on her face, but she finally suppressed it and forced a smile on her face and said: "Master Tao, I'm just a wasted flower. How can I be in your eyes? I'm afraid I will taint you. It's better to do this." , just tell me what kind of girl you like and I will find her for you."
Niu Youdao said calmly: "Do you think I will be short of women? This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful woman with dark skin. I haven't slept with her before. If you want to have a taste, it's you!"
Yuanfang's expression twitched, he had completely come out of the influence of "The Record of Alien Beasts", and he looked at Niu Youdao with a strange look on his face.
Black Peony laughed dryly and said: "What's so good about being black? Women are beautiful only when they are white. Master Tao, please stop joking."
Niu Youdao was unmoved, "That's the condition. Do you agree to it? If you don't agree, just do it yourself!"
Black Peony's face sank, and she suddenly stretched out her hand and said, "Give me the receipt for half a year's rent payment!"
"You took the initiative to pay it, I didn't force you." Niu Youdao looked aside and said slowly: "Old Xiong, is this money hers or ours?"
I'll go and get one thousand eight hundred! Yuanfang was refreshed and felt a sense of accomplishment from the Nanshan Temple robbery. He started to slap the case and said cheerfully: "Of course the money in our pockets belongs to us. How could it be someone else's? Who dares to rob? Let me ask this person first." Yao Yue Inn will agree or not!" That's so confident.
Black Mudan almost broke her teeth and pointed at the two of them, "If you dare to swallow my money, try it!"
