Chapter 879 Lottery
A new medicine store suddenly appeared in the center of Beiyuan City.
And it was a very grand three-storey store.
You know, this is the most expensive place in Beiyuan City. Even if those foundation-building families want to rent one, they have to think twice.
Later, I found out that these three stores were not rented, but bought directly, which immediately caused a burst of amazement.
This requires at least millions of spirit stones!
On this day, the plaque of "Danxia Pavilion" was hung, and the store was officially opened.
Because it was in the most central square, many cultivators were attracted, and then the guests who came to give gifts one by one opened their eyes.
Led by E Yun, basically all the big names of the Five Elements Sect came, and several Jindan cultivators came in person.
In addition to the Five Elements Sect, the leaders of Tiancanlou, Xingtian Chamber of Commerce, Dongwu Merchant Alliance and other forces outside the East Wasteland also came in person to present gifts.
It was at this time that the onlookers knew who the owner of this store was.
The Taoist partner of Chen Xianzun of the Five Elements Sect, Qingnv Zhenren.
However, Qingnv doesn't like to show up in public, so she didn't show up.
If she doesn't go, Chen Mobai will naturally not go either.
Because Qingnv will definitely not stay in the store for a long time, so a trustworthy person is needed to be the shopkeeper.
Liu Wenbai is the most suitable, but he has been practicing hard recently, and he wants to form a pill with one heart, so as not to embarrass the Xiaonanshan lineage, so Chen Mobai didn't let him take charge of Danxia Pavilion anymore.
Chen Mobai asked Luo Yixuan, but this always well-behaved disciple said that he wanted to go to Dongyi to visit the ruins of Haimen in a while, and he might not be able to take care of it.
After listening to this, Chen Mobai also thought that Luo Yixuan also took care of the connection with Xingtian Chamber of Commerce and Five Elements Chamber of Commerce, so he didn't add to her burden.
Finally, after thinking about the trustworthy people around him, Chen Mobai decided to ask Gu Yan, who had been with him for a long time, to go. During the Taoist Couple Ceremony, she was busy around Qingnv, doing things meticulously and taciturnly, and Qingnv was very satisfied with her.
However, it was precisely because she was too satisfied that Qingnv thought it would be better to keep Gu Yan by her side, because both of them were used to Gu Yan as a maid.
Seeing this, when Chen Mobai was about to introduce Xue Ting, Qingnv had already chosen it herself.
She chose Wei Qiurong, a foundation-building cultivator from the Five Elements Sect.
Wei Qiurong was originally the deacon elder who managed the Tianpeng Mountain Branch. When Qingnv was there, she was in office. She was an excellent spiritual plant husband, and she was also open-minded and frank in dealing with people.
Another reason was that after Qingnv left the Tianpeng Mountain Branch, Chen Mobai transferred his third-generation disciple Han Zhiling there, replacing Wei Qiurong.
Qingnv was also using the position of the shopkeeper of Danxia Pavilion to make up for Wei Qiurong.
As expected, Wei Qiurong, who had just lost the fourth-level spiritual vein land for cultivation, was received by Qingnv and was surprised to know that such a good thing was arranged for him.
Wei Qiurong was full of confidence. On the first day of the opening of Danxia Pavilion, he put ten copies of the Three Foundation Building Treasures on the shelves.
There were many wealthy people watching the opening, and they wanted to buy several copies on the spot.
But soon, Wei Qiurong posted a purchase notice.
It limited the requirements for purchasing the Three Foundation Building Treasures.
First, you must be a registered resident of Beiyuan City.
Second, each household is limited to one copy every ten years, and it can only be used by the cultivators registered in this household, and trading is prohibited.
Third, due to the limited production of the Three Foundation Building Treasures, you need to draw lots to buy them.
The first two can be understood, but the last draw left everyone confused.
Then Wei Qiurong stood up and explained what the draw was.
This is mainly for the consideration of the independent cultivators. After all, their financial resources are definitely not comparable to those of the immortal cultivation families and sects. If the auction is conducted by competing with spirit stones, most of the foundation-building treasures of Danxia Pavilion will not fall into the hands of independent cultivators.
So Chen Mobai and Qingnv discussed and copied the lottery process of the immortal gate.
Residents of Beiyuan City who want to buy the foundation-building treasures can pay a low-grade spirit stone fee and get a talisman from Danxia Pavilion. There is a number on the talisman. Every month, Danxia Pavilion will put ten foundation-building treasures on the shelf, and then draw lots on the first day of the next month.
Those who win the lottery can buy the foundation-building treasures from Danxia Pavilion according to the number of their talismans.
This policy surprised and delighted many immortal cultivators.
Especially those independent cultivators.
They all prayed and saluted from the bottom of their hearts in the direction of the top of Beiyuan Mountain, and were also glad that they were a member of Beiyuan City.
A month later, the number of Beiyuan City residents who participated in the first lottery exceeded 10,000.
In order to increase the chances of winning the lottery, many immortal cultivation families purchased a lot of new properties this month. Because they know that after the lottery policy comes out, the property prices in Beiyuan City will only get higher and higher.
On the day of the lottery, Beiyuan City was full of people.
Danxia Pavilion was already crowded with people. Fortunately, the store was located in the central square, so many people could stand outside.
Chen Mobai and Qingnv stood on the top of the mountain and looked down. They saw the dense crowds of immortal cultivators, almost more than the day of the Taoist couple ceremony, and they couldn't help but sigh.
Sure enough, the most motivating thing is only about their own interests.
As long as the three foundation-building treasures are purchased, even if they are not used now, they can be passed on to their families in the future, and they will definitely not lose money.
So almost everyone in Beiyuan City who had some financial resources participated in this lottery.
"This place is becoming more and more like the Immortal Gate."
Qingnv looked down the mountain, and with each number appearing, there were waves of cheers and frustrations, and she couldn't help but speak.
"Only in this way can there be rules, and even the fruit of the Dao Law be formed!"
Chen Mobai said this.
Qingnv looked puzzled, she didn't know the rules of the Immortal Gate.
For her, Chen Mobai had nothing to hide, and told her everything about the rules and the fruit of the Dao Law.
"There is actually such a path to incarnation, no wonder..."
Qingnv was also surprised after hearing this.
It was at this time that she understood the significance of the existence of the Immortal Gate.
"After the matter here comes to an end, I will also go back to the Immortal Gate and go to the Heavenly Book Academy to read the Dao Law Heavenly Book. Maybe this is the way for me to incarnate in the East Wilderness in the future."
While Chen Mobai was speaking, he showed his external incarnation and the crown of all living things in the world.
These were also the first time Qingnv saw them.
She originally thought that she had deeply understood every aspect of Chen Mobai in these years, but she didn't know that after forming a Taoist couple, she would have new discoveries every day.
Her man is like an inexhaustible treasure!
Qingnv thought so, and her eyes looking at Chen Mobai became more and more obsessed.
Down the mountain.
The result of the first lottery came out, seven belonged to independent cultivators, and three belonged to immortal cultivation families.
This result was expected by E Yun and others. After all, they had the information of all the household owners who participated in the lottery, and they could get a rough estimate by using statistical probability calculation.
Although it seems that the immortal cultivation families are more powerful than independent cultivators, in fact, except for the Five Elements Sect, independent cultivators occupy nearly 80% of the households in Beiyuan City.
After the lottery, E Yun and Wei Qiurong came to report.
Four of the seven independent cultivators were not financially sufficient and could not pay the full price for the three foundation-building treasures. Danxia Pavilion would also reserve their qualifications for three years. As long as they collected enough spirit stones within three years, they could take away the remaining pills. If it exceeds three years, then these extra foundation-building treasures will be released again for lottery.
This policy has won great praise from the casual cultivators.
In the days to come, because they care about their foundation-building treasures, these casual cultivators began to come to Danxia Pavilion frequently. If they need any elixirs, they basically consume them in Danxia Pavilion.
There are also three casual cultivators who have reached their peak years. With great luck from heaven, they decided to mortgage their caves in Beiyuan City in exchange for spirit stones to buy a full set of foundation-building treasures and try their luck at foundation-building.
After all, all cultivators know that as long as the foundation is successfully built, even if they go to work in the Five Elements Sect, they can repay these spirit stones within a dozen years.
The mentality of the locals who want to take a chance on everything, even Chen Mobai can't change.
They can only hope to educate the next generation well.
"Well, you've done a good job. Keep doing this in the future."
After listening to the report, Chen Mobai said to E Yun and Wei Qiurong.
"Master, there is one more thing. I found that there are already immortal cultivation families who want to take advantage of the loophole."
E Yun also told the intelligence he had obtained. Because these foundation-building treasures cannot be traded, but can be used by registered cultivators, there are wealthy immortal cultivation families who want to trade with those successful casual cultivators in the lottery, give a sum of spirit stones, and adopt or marry their own family members who have the hope of building a foundation.
One of the casual cultivators quickly reported this matter to the Five Elements Sect. As the acting master, E Yun felt that this loophole might make those immortal cultivation families stronger and stronger in the future, so he thought about whether it could be plugged.
"That's it. If all the rules and regulations are set in stone, they will lose their vitality."
But after listening to it, Chen Mobai shook his head and said that he didn't care.
"This... is it, Master!"
Although E Yun had been trained by Chen Mobai for decades, he still couldn't keep up with his thinking. He didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but he nodded in obedience.
"What you are worried about is nothing more than the strengthening of the immortal cultivation families, threatening the ruling position of the sect, or even the emergence of higher-level Jindan cultivators under the base of more foundation-building cultivators. But you must know that the act of annexation will never stop as long as society exists."
"What we need to do is to keep ourselves strong. As long as Senior Brother Zhou and I are still here, even if ten or even a hundred Jindan families appear, this East Wilderness will still be ruled by our Five Elements Sect."
"And if the sect is the only one in the East Wilderness, it will soon become arrogant and even lose the motivation to make progress. A little external pressure is actually good."
After Chen Mobai finished speaking, E Yun suddenly realized and looked educated.
