Chapter 1876 Arrogant (Book the Guaranteed Monthly Ticket for Next Month)
For the foundation building of the Yan family, how to deal with the three people in front of him is beyond his ability.
After reporting to the family, someone will make the decision.
Now what he has to do is to further test the other party's situation.
So he said with a little surprise, "You bought the land, but don't you plan to develop and utilize it?"
If you buy a spiritual vein just for cultivation, it is really too extravagant.
No matter which immortal cultivation force, once it occupies a place, it will inevitably develop some industries to exchange for cultivation resources.
This is how the hundreds of arts of immortal cultivation came about. Each has its own strengths, and they trade with each other to increase their growth space.
If you have spiritual veins and land, but don't develop and utilize them, wouldn't it be eating up the mountain?
Flower Scorpion replied calmly, "Grow some spiritual plants, raise some spiritual beasts, and use them yourself."
So... arrogant? Yan Jiaji was speechless, "Like pills, talismans, refining equipment... you don't need them?"
This time it was Xiangxue's turn to answer. She was good at doing business. "When needed, we will go to purchase."
"Our existence will not affect the existing industrial structure of the Yan family. You can rest assured."
Still arrogant! Yan Jiaji nodded silently.
But the other party's words hit his heart. The Yan family's inquiry about the other party's industrial layout was far more than curiosity.
In the sphere of influence of the Yan family, each force has its own strengths, and a relatively balanced situation has been formed.
If there is really a troublemaker, the forces of all parties will inevitably have to reshuffle and various chaos will occur.
So he smiled and nodded, "Well, it would be great if we can live in peace with our neighbors and support each other."
Since there is such an understanding, the price is easy to negotiate.
In the end, the two parties agreed to use 300,000 spirit stones to buy the land use rights of 100 square kilometers in the surrounding area.
The period of use is 100 years, and the price will be negotiated after 100 years.
On average, there are only 30 spiritual stones per square kilometer per year. The price is indeed not expensive, but it is not too cheap either.
The terrain and landforms here are diverse, and not every piece of land can be used.
If you want to make full use of this 100 square kilometers, the cost of transformation alone will not be small, and it will definitely be much more expensive than 300,000.
And these 300,000 spiritual stones are equivalent to one-third of the team's reserves, which can be regarded as a heavy loss.
As for the contract? Yanjia Jianji said, let's sign a draft contract first, and I will send you the official document later.
In fact, this document also came from the Yan family, and other forces just did not deny it.
If the Yan family disappears after this, other forces will take over, and generally they can barely recognize this document.
It is precisely because of this that the Yan family can only buy and sell the right to use for 100 years-almost all small and medium-sized forces in Dongsheng have this authority.
If it is the seven major families or the five sects and fourteen schools, it can be signed for 500 years.
Only the cultivator alliance can sell spiritual veins permanently, but usually, they also choose to sell them in a time-limited way.
After signing the draft contract, Hua Xiezi happily took out 100,000 spirit stones as a deposit.
The remaining 200,000 would be sent after the official documents from the other party were delivered.
The foundation-building cultivator of the Yan family was also very courageous. After receiving the deposit, he actually flew into the air and left.
The purpose of his behavior was to show the other party... our Yan family has absolute control over this place and is not afraid of being robbed.
However, the three pretended not to see it, but instead looked around the newly acquired land with great interest.
"Really?" The foundation-building cultivator of the Yan family was slightly surprised. This is 100,000 spirit stones. Are you so indifferent?
It's really arrogant...
Although Dongsheng is still orderly, the amount of 100,000 spirit stones is enough to tempt some Jindan Zhenren among the casual cultivators.
The casual cultivator of the Yan family flew back to the family, reported what happened, and emphasized that the other party took out 100,000 spirit stones without blinking an eye.
In fact, for Qu Jianlei and others, this is also a sum of money that is definitely worth paying attention to.
However, their spiritual stones were stolen and not saved up with great effort, so it was not that painful to spend them.
The Jindan in charge of foreign affairs of the Yan family was named Yan Xuemin. When he heard that the family had received such a large sum of money, he immediately called the foundation-building master.
"Sicong, tell me about the contact."
Yan Sicong recounted the whole story, emphasizing the two Jindan talismans and the man who was hard to see through.
After listening to the story, Jindan Patriarch Yan Xuemin nodded thoughtfully, "Are you sure it's a talisman, not a talisman?"
"It should be... a talisman," Yan Sicong thought about it, but he was not sure, "The main reason is that the material is very rare."
"That means it has a good origin," the ancestor nodded slightly, "Don't be nosy when the storm is coming."
"Ancestor..." Yan Sicong hesitated and spoke, "They really have unknown origins."
"Then we'll see slowly," the ancestor glanced at him indifferently, "They promised not to sell the output, isn't that enough sincerity?"
In the sphere of influence of the Yan family, many industries are related to the interests of the family.
With the current strength of this force, if it really wants to get involved in some industries, the interests of the Yan family will inevitably be damaged.
In addition, if the other party really doesn't trade with the outside world, there will be fewer people and things to contact.
"Without communication, are you worried that they will stir up some waves? Or... are you jealous of their spiritual stones?"
"I dare not do that," Yan Sicong answered respectfully, "I still remember the ancestral precepts, but I think they are a bit ostentatious."
"Then we should not interfere," the old ancestor said lightly, "They are willing to pay 300,000 yuan, and they are still kind to the Yan family."
Not to mention that the land does not have to be bought from the Yan family. If there is really an ulterior motive, it is not the way to support the enemy.
The entire family assets of the Yan family are worth tens of millions of spiritual stones, but most of them are industries or material reserves.
The survival and development of large families are mostly asset-heavy types. The spiritual stones that the Yan family can take out at any time are only a few million.
Yan Sicong stammered, "I mean... Is it appropriate to requisition, uh, borrow their manpower?"
This is another benefit of establishing a sphere of influence. When something happens, you can requisition the cultivators of various forces in the territory.
But if you encounter those too powerful forces, it is definitely not appropriate to requisition.
For example, the fourteen sects also have some permanent institutions on the territory of the Yan family. Who dares to requisition them?
However, when encountering serious public events, the Yan family, as the local snake, is responsible for the organization and can negotiate for a loan.
"This... let's wait and see," the ancestor replied in a deep voice. The family's fear of the other party is mainly because they don't know the bottom line.
But then, he smiled again, "Forget it, I'll go with you to take a look later. It's just a second-level spiritual vein."
They didn't consider that there would be a Jindan Zhenren in the other team.
The supply limit of the second-level spiritual vein is there. If the other party really has a Jindan, it can only guarantee that the cultivation will not be affected in the short term.
However, if there is such a Jindan Zhenren, will other foundation-building cultivators still practice?
As for the two Jindan... don't joke like that!
The other party may have a huge force behind them, but the masters of that force cannot be projected here... I really can't afford it!
If it's just a few foundation-building areas, there's really nothing to worry about.
"Grandpa, that's a good idea!" Yan Sicong was overjoyed. "That's what I mean. It would be great if you could go and see it in person."
He was indeed a little greedy, but deep down he was still thinking about the family.
After buying the land, there were many related matters, such as determining the boundaries, building residences, and various infrastructure construction.
When Qu Jianlei and his team were clearing the boundaries, they actually found that there were four small villages in their own territory.
The big village had more than 200 people, and the small village had only more than 60 people and eight households.
There were more than 500 people in the four villages, and there were actually two Qi-refining practitioners among them.
This was a village that had spontaneously gathered before, and the gathering was just to help resist wild beasts and thieves.
They were the real tenants of the Yan family, and the land did not belong to them.
To be more precise, they were tenants of tenants, and the four villages had to pay taxes to the two nearby forces.
The taxes were quite heavy. For farmland, it was 30% to 70%, and 70% was handed over. If necessary, they had to provide labor and corvée.
Hua Xiezi was a little unhappy after hearing about this. There were actually other people living on the land that her family bought?
But these people have settled here for a long time, and the oldest family has lived here for two hundred years.
This is undoubtedly the lowest level of the cultivation world, and life is quite difficult. This reminds Hua Xiezi of her years on the garbage planet.
So she did not drive them away, but reported to the boss.
Qu Jianlei thought for a while and said, "Notify them to prepare to move. This place has been bought by us."
These people are indeed pitiful, but the land has indeed changed hands. You can't say that you have lived here for a long time, so it should become yours.
Zi Jiuxian made a suggestion, "Why not compensate for some moving expenses? Since you plan to live here permanently, reputation is very important."
Qu Jianlei pondered for a while and agreed with her suggestion. Anyway, they are all pitiful people, and the team is not short of this little money.
"If those people refuse to move, let the Yan family know and let them deal with it."
We bought a spiritual vein, but we bought a clean land. There are actually people living on it. It is better to let the seller deal with it.
However, as expected, most of the villagers expressed their unwillingness to move.
There are many reasons for not wanting to move. Some say they are too old, some say it is hard to leave their hometown, and some emphasize that the farmland is developed by themselves.
Some even say that the relocation fee is too little?
However, most people still take a wait-and-see attitude. After all, they have lived here for too long, and it is really difficult to decide to move.
What one of the old men said makes some sense - for these poor families, moving once means losing half of their lives.
They can't take the farmhouses away, more than half of the means of production will be lost, and they don't know where to go.
Even if they find a place, the house must be rebuilt and the farmland must be reclaimed, which cannot be solved in one or two years.
If a family does not have external help, it will take at least five to ten years to stabilize again.
