Chapter 1145 Reminder From the Wise King
When Junxian cleverly used Shang Guo as a leverage to obtain huge benefits from Sanctuary, Shang Guo was also holding a meeting about the future of Xianyu.
Those who participated in the meeting involved several continents and several seas, and the scope of influence (in terms of area) was almost one-tenth of the fairyland.
Well, it's a bit exaggerated. In many places, only one or two people came, but the scope of influence is still relatively wide after all.
After Yan Ze'an uttered the five words "sustainable development", everyone was immediately confused, wondering how a "price reduction storm" was connected with sustainable development.
Also, what does sustainable development mean? It sounds reasonable.
Yan Ze'an took out the document that he had discussed with King Xian for a long time, and began to explain:
"My friends in the Immortal Realm, there is one thing that everyone knows very well, that is, cultivation is inseparable from resources. Wealth, law and land are indispensable.
But in fact, what is the legal land of a wealthy couple? Generally speaking, it refers to: wealth, friends to exchange and solve doubts, skills and methods, a place to stand and practice.
But I think that wealth is not just superficial wealth, but various resources in practice. Including spiritual energy, elixirs, magic weapons, etc., this is the first and most important. But this is also the biggest problem we face right now.
In the past hundreds of thousands of years, we can say this: the number of practitioners is increasing, but the resources for cultivation are getting better and better, and this trend is accelerating.
If there were no accidents, perhaps within a few thousand years, this place in Yingzhou would become a desert of cultivation, and by then, even the hundred-year-old medicinal materials would become legends.
In the past few years, the practice has been difficult, and I think you all have a deep understanding of it. Because of the lack of resources, we have no exercises, but it is difficult to achieve the Nascent Soul Stage. "
Speaking of this, Yan Ze'an paused for a while, but everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and then nodded to each other. That's right, it's only been a dozen years, how can everyone forget those difficult years. All the people present, except for the people from the Shang Kingdom, most of the rest are people who have practiced for hundreds or even thousands of years. Those difficult years have left an indelible mark on their hearts.
Yan Ze'an looked around and continued to say: "Everyone, although we have abundant resources now, I have to explain that these resources are actually the last resources in the Immortal Territory.
We have extracted the wealth accumulated in the underground for tens of millions of years. Once the wealth is used up, the entire fairyland will become a desert, completely losing all vitality. "
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
One person couldn't help but said: "Prime Minister Yan said, do you want to raise the price?"
"No!" Yan Ze'an's sharp eyes pierced into this person's heart, "I'm not trying to raise the price, I said these words today as a member of Immortal Domain.
The rise and fall of Xianyu is related to every one of us here. Today, I don't talk about the big truth, just talk about the most realistic situation.
According to the study of the Geological Science Department of the Shang Kingdom, at the current speed of the Shang Kingdom's demand for resources, the oil and other resources stored underground can only last for about a hundred years at most.
And this kind of consumption is accelerating. As more and more people start to practice, and with the continuous development of society, our demand for natural resources will be endless.
King Xian said that if we continue to develop at this rate, we will face the plight of lack of resources again in at most 50 years! "
Ao Zhen, the crown prince of Donghai Dragon Palace in Yingzhou, said, "Did King Xian really say that?"
"Yes!" Yan Ze'an said with certainty.
The faces of the people present became more serious. Xian Wang, in the past ten years, Xian Wang has almost become a "sage". If many things are said by the Xian Wang, then everyone has to seriously consider them.
Moreover, all the people here are smart people. If you are not smart, you will not be a master in cultivation. Everyone will understand the situation after a little thought. Subsurface resources are always limited. In the past, everyone has hollowed out the spiritual stone deposits and many spiritual material deposits. Although the oil is different now, it is essentially just a mineral deposit.
And now, due to the reasons of the Shang Dynasty, there has been an explosive growth in practice, and the consumption of resources has become even more serious. Not to mention, now not only practice consumes resources, but also wars, large-scale industrial production, etc., which one does not need to consume a lot of spiritual energy.
Finally, Master Xuanfeng, the head teacher of Haozhou and Yunxiao Sect, said, "I don't know what plans Shang Guo has?"
Yan Ze'an stretched out three fingers: "Three words, go out!"
After a short pause, Yan Ze'an continued: "The resources of one world are limited, so what about the resources of two worlds? What about the resources of three worlds?
The Kingdom of Shang has already begun to explore the second world, which is the moon.
Of course, there is still a third world delivered to our doorstep, and that is... Sanctuary!
The purpose of today's meeting is very simple. It is to tell everyone that, judging from our current development speed, we still have fifty years of golden development period, and we must break the shackles of the fairyland within fifty years, and at least attack Only by entering the first different world can the glory of the fairyland be continued.
This is not a plea, nor is it a war of ambition, this is a struggle for survival. "
"Sorry, let me interrupt." The Purple King of the three-legged Jinwu tribe on Yaosheng Island said, "Prime Minister Yan, what you said sounds good, but we are here today to discuss the sale of cultivation resources. I don't know if you What does this have to do with the sale of cultivation resources?"
Zi Wang almost didn't say directly - Yan Ze'an, you are off topic.
Yan Ze'an smiled slightly: "It does matter. The cultivation resources sold by Shangguo will increase the export tariff by 10%. That is to say, the export price of pure liquid aura that sells for 3 taels of gold in Shangguo is 3.6 taels of gold. .”
This... Everyone was stunned, so cheap? But I don't know what you said earlier, what do you mean?
Yan Ze'an seemed to be able to feel everyone's doubts: "Actually, the meaning of Shangguo is very simple. First, to tell you the crisis we are facing now. Second, Shangguo will devote itself to providing cheap cultivation resources for this fairyland and promoting the cultivation of fairyland. The prosperity of the world is ready for the entire fairyland to go out.
I hope that fifty years later, we can have another gathering like this in another world. But that will be a celebration!
Well, that concludes today's meeting.
The cultivation resources you need can be ordered online.
For the time being, the Chamber of Commerce will sell 50% of the resources to the outside world, and each time it will be divided into tens of thousands of copies; each country, sect, family, etc. can only order one resource for each order. For details, please discuss with us. We only need to collect money and deliver goods. At most, the goods will be sent to the border of the merchant country. How to transport them afterwards is up to you.
Let's break up the meeting. "
After finishing speaking, Yan Ze'an got up and left directly, leaving behind all the masters and representatives present in a very rude manner.
However, the representatives present did not leave, but started a heated discussion—dividing up resources.
But at this time, everyone gradually discovered Yan Ze'an's insidious intentions—just now Yan Ze'an was particularly concerned about the shortage of resources, so everyone is not giving in now.
For example, the representative of Zhao State, the royal family has to reserve one, the Lingxiao Group affiliated to the Zhao State royal family also has to reserve one, and representatives of several large groups in Zhao State, big families, and sects, all of them To order a copy. Counting it all down, only the forces within Zhao State submitted 84 applications.
Obviously, this doesn't work.
There are also representatives from Yunzhou. Each representative applied for a resource, and a total of more than 110 applications were applied. Naturally, they were also opposed by other representatives.
No one budged. If you have more resources now, you will take one more step in your own development, and you will be more powerful if you "invade" other worlds in the future. The business country's invasion of the affiliated world has already set an example, and everyone has seen the huge benefits.
Everyone quarreled until the afternoon, and finally broke up unhappy, and made an appointment to continue the "quarrel" tomorrow.
But at this time, Li Xian met Lan Baolin in Qingyun Valley.
Lan Baolin followed Yuan Lin into King Xian's temporary office with emotions such as excitement, nervousness, yearning, and expectation.
Yuan Yun came forward to receive the two of them and arranged them in the living room. Soon after Li Xian came, Yuan Lin and Lan Baolin immediately stood up excitedly.
"Sit down, don't be nervous." Li Xian smiled very gently, without any airs, and dressed himself very plainly, which invisibly relieved Lan Baolin's tension.
Yuan Lin got up quickly and sent Lan Baolin's documents: "King Xian, this is Lan Baolin's information about Greenwood Investment Bank."
