Still have to say, having Thousand Miles Sound Transmission is convenient.
After negotiating the terms of cooperation with the Yuqing Sect, Shi Yinghao left the Yuqing main hall and was taken by the Yuqing disciples to the courtyard where the envoys were received. When the Yuqing disciples who led the way left, Shi Yinghao immediately took out his Thousand Miles Sound Transmission and made a phone call back to Master Daqian's home. Moreover, through Qianli Voice Communication, any questions the two parties have during the conversation can be raised immediately and received accurate answers.
Therefore, Shi Yinghao quickly made a detailed report to the head of the Shi family about the entire situation.
After listening to Shi Yinghao's report, the master of the Shijia family, Yichen, naturally had some dissatisfaction with the Jade Qing Sect's transformation of spiritual rice seeds into spiritual rice.
After all, dignified masters also have a reputation. Spiritual rice seeds and spiritual rice seem to be the same thing, but in fact they have completely different meanings. Mortals in the world all know that "don't bend your waist for five bushels of rice." If the spiritual rice seeds are replaced by spiritual rice, wouldn't it mean that the master has to bow his waist for five bushels of rice
However, immediately afterwards, Shi Yinghao talked about high-yield crops, and reported everything he saw in the Tang Dynasty to the head of the family, Shi Yichen, as well as some introductions from Ye Zan.
Originally, Shi Yichen was really embarrassed, and even had the slightest idea of canceling the cooperation. However, when he heard Shi Yinghao talking about high-yielding crops, as the head of the family, he could naturally imagine how important those high-yielding crops would be to Daqian Country and the Shi family.
Although Yuqingzong had an obligation to the Tang Dynasty not to restrict the spread of high-yielding crop seeds. It seems that when the high-yielding crops of the Tang Dynasty are harvested, the Daqian Kingdom can also obtain the seeds of high-yielding crops from the Tang Dynasty. But you must know that the countries that are eyeing these high-yielding crops are definitely not just Daqian countries. Even if all countries share equally, how much will they get.
What's more, even if the Tang Dynasty had a great harvest this time, all the harvested crops would be used as seeds. I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough for the people of the country. How could it be distributed generously to other countries
Moreover, even if the Tang Dynasty did not restrict the outflow of seeds, the people were not fools. Food was their life. After seeing the yield of high-yielding crops, who would be willing to give this life-saving thing to others? Even if others pay a high price to buy it, ordinary people must first save enough seeds to sow in the coming year.
Therefore, it can be concluded that within a few years, other countries will not be able to obtain too many high-yielding crop seeds from the Tang Dynasty.
In this way, Ye Zan's promise to Shi Yinghao that after the high-yielding crops in the small world of Immortal Palace are harvested, he will distribute part of the seeds to Daqian Country, it is quite tempting for the Shi family.
Of course, Daqian Country can also choose to wait. Anyway, it will only take a few more years for those high-yielding crops to spread throughout the territory. However, Daqian State also wants to build rail transit! Rail transportation, coupled with high-yielding crops, forced the Shi family to seriously consider whether face was really that important.
After weighing the pros and cons, Shi Yichen quickly replied to Shi Yinghao, agreeing to the terms of cooperation he had discussed with the Yuqing Sect, and immediately dispatched the five Yuan Ying ancestors in his family to the Yuqing Sect.
After receiving the reply, Shi Yinghao immediately went to see Wu Changsheng, the leader of Yuqing, and told Wu Changsheng and Ye Zan the family's reply.
Although it can be said that with the addition of the six Yuan Ying ancestors of the Shi family, the manpower shortage problem in rail transit construction has been alleviated to a certain extent. However, compared with the huge engineering needs of the Shenhua Domain, the addition of these six Nascent Soul Ancestors is still a drop in the bucket.
Moreover, how long can the Shi family and the Yuqing Sect cooperate? Although Shi Jia said that cooperation is not limited to Daqian Country, it actually does not take a few years for Daqian Country to build rail transportation and spread spiritual rice and high-yielding crops throughout the Shenhua Territory. So after that, what reason does the master have to let the dignified Yuanying ancestor continue to follow the "construction team" to do those unseemly menial jobs
In other words, after a few years, maybe three years, maybe two years, the cooperation between the Master family and the Yuqing Sect will no longer be profitable.
However, this time, the master family came to cooperate, which provided Ye Zan with some inspiration.
There are countless ascetics in the world, and not all of them are in major sects and have the concept of "not giving up for five buckets of rice". For example, those third-rate sects and casual cultivators, let alone those who have not asked for directions to obtain spiritual rice seeds, would not be able to plant them even if they obtained the seeds.
You know, the standard for a third-rate sect is to have at least one Nascent Soul Ancestor sitting in charge. Although it is difficult for casual cultivators to cultivate, the Shenhua Domain is so large that it is not a rare thing for some to cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm. If these Nascent Soul Ancestors can join in the construction of rail transit, then the problem of manpower shortage will basically not be a problem, if not solved.
As for how to get those Nascent Soul Ancestors to join in, of course the only way is to lure them for profit.
When it comes to the "benefits" of inducements, Lingdao is certainly one of them, and it is currently the most attractive. Those third-rate sects have always been relatively lacking in elixirs to assist cultivation, let alone top-quality elixirs. Therefore, no one can resist the temptation of the spiritual rice used to replace the best auxiliary elixir.
However, when it comes to spiritual rice, the Yuqing Sect is not well off either. After deducting the share that needs to be given to the master's family, the spiritual rice in its own inventory is only enough for its own consumption. Especially in the small world of Immortal Palace, the disciples of Yuqing Dao Palace cannot be treated badly. Therefore, even if you can barely squeeze out some of your own inventory, I'm afraid it won't be able to hire too many people.
However, who said that spiritual rice can only be used as inducement? In addition to spiritual rice, Ye Zan also has a lot of spiritual stones. Not to mention top-grade spiritual stones, even some top-grade and medium-grade spiritual stones are enough to tempt those Nascent Soul Ancestors. Even those top-quality auxiliary elixirs that the Yuqing Sect has eliminated, such as Qi Refining Pills and Yuan Condensing Pills, can be used as rewards.
You know, although the cultivators in the Shenhua Realm are now basically aware of the existence of spiritual rice, it is still far from time to completely eliminate auxiliary elixirs. After all, spiritual rice has not yet been broadcast to the world, and those large sects that have obtained spiritual rice seeds have not completely replaced the elixirs with spiritual rice, let alone those small sects and even casual cultivators.
What's more, just because Yu Qingzong can't produce more spiritual rice now, doesn't mean it won't be able to produce it in the future. Not going too far, simply after this season's spiritual rice harvest, the Yuqing Sect will be able to obtain a large amount of spiritual rice again. At that time, after deducting Yu Qingdao's own consumption and giving the master's share, the rest will be enough to hire many more people.
Therefore, if you take the spiritual rice that is about to be harvested in advance and talk to those third-rate sects and the ancestors of Yuanying who are casual cultivators, they should be tempted.
Ye Zan thought carefully, participated in the criteria for cooperation with the master family, and quickly formulated a hiring plan. In addition to handing over the plan to Wu Changsheng and asking Wu Changsheng to send people to contact those third-rate sects and casual cultivators, Ye Zan also issued an announcement similar to a recruitment revelation in the Virtual God Realm.
Although today's Virtual God Realm has not truly reached the point where everyone can play online games, the number of cultivators who have entered the game has been many times greater than before. In each sect, only elite disciples are no longer qualified to enter the Virtual God Realm. Ordinary disciples also gradually have the opportunity to enter the Virtual God Realm.
Especially those third-rate sects, no matter how difficult it is, they can still get three or five gaming helmets. Naturally, they will have the opportunity to see this "recruitment revelation" issued by Ye Zan in the Virtual God Realm. At the same time, none of the disciples of the major sects have any connections outside the sect. For example, some monastic families will try their best to send their disciples who they think have the best qualifications to those major sects. If those people saw the "recruitment revelation" in the Virtual God Realm, wouldn't they help spread it
It can even be said that the "recruitment revelation" issued by Ye Zan in the Virtual God Realm was more efficient in dissemination than Wu Changsheng's sending people to contact them.
Of course, while recruiting workers, Ye Zan also needs to refine more engineering machinery instruments. Moreover, he was going to take a look at the effect. If this method worked well, then several Nascent Souls in the jade ball space could be saved.
"Headmaster Qi, Elder Peng of the Wuzhu Sect is currently outside the gate of Chaoyang Peak Mountain asking for an audience!" A Yuqing disciple entered the main hall and reported to Wu Changsheng.
Ye Zan, on his side, had just given the recruitment plan to Wu Changsheng, and Wu Changsheng had just sent out all the people. Hearing the report from the Yuqing disciple, Ye Zan couldn't help but feel a little surprised: He didn't expect Peng Gong from the Wuzhu Sect to have already arrived. This speed is too fast!
The current life of the Wuzhu Sect is actually ordinary, not much different from before. However, they are afraid of comparison in everything. Comparing one person to another will lead to death, and comparing goods will lead to throwing away goods. If compared with the Yuqing Sect, it is really difficult to balance the hearts of everyone in the Wuzhu Sect.
I think back then, the Yuqing Sect was just a third-rate sect, just like the Wuzhu Sect. Moreover, under the joint suppression of the Jinguang Sect and the Wuzhu Sect, the days of the Yuqing Sect were almost a joke. They need resources but not resources, they need talents but not talents, good things will not come their way, and bad things will not be avoided. If it weren't for Mo Ru who was in charge, Yu Qingzong would have been unable to survive long ago.
However, no one expected that the Yuqing Sect would suddenly change its fortunes. First, it would merge with the Jinguang Sect, and then Mo Ru would be promoted to the Yuanshen Power. The third-rate sect suddenly became a second-rate sect. Later, the Thousand Miles of Sound Transmission was launched, the Virtual God Realm was launched, the Far North was turned around, and the Arctic Fairy Palace was brought back. Four powerful Nascent Spirits became Keqing elders, backed by the top sect Arctic Sword Sect, and they also brought out ten Nascent Soul Ancestors from the Immortal Palace.
To be honest, if one of these many good things happened to the Wuzhu Sect, it would be enough to make the Wuzhu Sect extremely happy. However, God is so unfair. All the good things happened to the Yuqing Sect, and the Wuzhu Sect didn't even get a single bird feather.
It is a pity that the Yuqing Sect is no longer what it used to be. No matter how jealous the Wuzhu Sect is, they dare not express the slightest bit towards the Yuqing Sect. After all, the Golden Light Sect has learned from the past, and the Wuzhu Sect does not want to become the second Golden Light Sect.
In fact, speaking of it, it is not true that the Wu Bamboo Sect received no benefits at all. It would be better to return the Black Jade Nine-Star Bamboo to the Wu Bamboo Sect after returning from the Immortal Palace. You know, the Black Bamboo Sect has lost its Black Jade Nine-Star Bamboo for thousands of years. If it weren't for the Yuqing Sect, they still don't know when they would be able to recover this magic weapon of the Sect.
As for why Mo Ru returned the Black Jade Nine Star Bamboo to the Wu Bamboo Sect, there were actually two considerations.
On the one hand, this thing belongs to the Wuzhu Sect after all. As a righteous sect, the Yuqing Sect would not look good if it always held other people's magic weapons.
On the other hand, the Jade Qing Sect now has no shortage of magic weapons. It was not the case that before going to the Immortal Palace, they only had two magic weapons: the Earth Seal and the Nine-Storied Pagoda. Not to mention anything else, Ye Zan alone harvested five magic weapons from the five Nascent Soul Ancestors of the mysterious force. If we say, the five magic weapons may still be a little bit behind, but there are still a few powerful souls.
Those who were captured by Cangquan Daojun were also powerful souls from mysterious forces, and the magic weapons they carried were no worse than the Black Jade Nine-Star Bamboo.
Therefore, there is no need for the Yuqing Sect to tarnish the reputation of their upright sect because of the Black Jade Nine Star Bamboo.
Following the Yuqing disciples who led the way, Peng Gong of the Wuzhu Sect came all the way to the Yuqing Hall of Yuquan Peak. On his way here, he saw Yu Qingzong's earth-shaking changes compared to before, and the sour water in his heart was like a fountain, and he couldn't stop it no matter what.
In the past, when Peng Gong came to Yuqingzong to "visit", Wu Changsheng would definitely welcome him outside the mountain gate. After all, when it comes to seniority, Peng Gong is from the same generation. Although Wu Changsheng is the leader, he still wants to call Peng Gong "Master Peng".
But now, the Yuqing Sect is already a second-rate sect, and Wu Changsheng has entered the Nascent Soul realm. At this time, if Wu Changsheng went to greet Mr. Peng in person outside the mountain gate, I am afraid that Mr. Peng himself would feel terrified.
"I have met Headmaster Wu and Elder Ye. I have taken the liberty to come and disturb you. Please forgive me." Peng Gong arrived in the main hall and greeted Wu Changsheng and Ye Zan.
"Uncle Peng, what are you talking about? I am so busy with trivial matters that I have never been far away, so why should I ask Uncle Peng not to be offended?" Wu Changsheng sat high in the headmaster's position. Although his words were very polite, they were obviously just polite.
For the Wuzhu Sect and the Yuqing Sect, especially the older generation, it is really impossible to say that they have no resentment in their hearts. After all, back then, the Wuzhu Sect followed the Jinguang Sect and also caused many obstacles for the Yuqing Sect. Wu Changsheng, the leader, had suffered so much injustice from both factions.
As a result, after the Jinguang Sect was annexed, some people suggested that the Wuzhu Sect should also be annexed. However, considering the reputation of the Yuqing Sect, Ye Zan and Mo Ru just let the Wuzhu Sect go. After all, destroying the Wuzhu Sect would not do much good.
