Chapter 1618 Busy, Rental Details
Since the Gu family released the news that they would rent out some of the spiritual veins in their territory, half a year later, many cultivators came to the Gu family to inquire about the situation. Most of them were independent cultivators, and a small number were family or sect cultivators.
Independent cultivators wanted to establish their own power, while some family or sect cultivators wanted to expand their power, and some wanted to set up their own sects; of course, some people wanted to transfer the fire and make friends with the Gu family, etc.
However, after the Gu family announced the specific requirements for leasing, many forces that wanted to expand their strength gave up the idea of leasing spiritual veins from the Gu family.
After all, they didn't want to be affiliated with anyone, or they had already joined other combined forces. If they suddenly changed, it might bring disaster to their own forces.
And those cultivators who wanted to set up their own sects were enlightened.
However, for those independent cultivators who wanted to establish their own power, these treaties of the Gu family were nothing. The most important thing was the spirit stones!
If there are not enough spirit stones to rent a spirit vein, or if there are just enough spirit stones to rent a spirit vein but not enough to develop the family, then they have a lot of ambitions but cannot display them.
But these are not what the Gu family needs to consider. To be fair, the price of renting spirit veins is not high, and the grades of rented spirit veins range from low to high, and even the highest is a seventh-grade middle-grade spirit vein.
Of course, not everyone can afford to rent such a grade of spirit veins. At least only a well-off cultivator can afford it.
Exactly one year after the end of the Bone Clan War, the Gu family finally released accurate information and began to rent spirit veins to the outside world. Cultivators who want to rent spirit veins can go to the Gu family's new mountain gate, Beigu Mountain Range, to negotiate the connection.
Beigu Mountain Range is the original Beiming Kuzhong headquarters. After the Gu family moved its focus here, it was renamed Beigu Mountain Range and upgraded the spirit vein to the edge of the ninth-grade middle-grade.
Of course, only the Gu family cultivators know that the spirit vein has been upgraded to the ninth level. The Gu family cultivators have never deliberately publicized it. In addition, the spies and bribed traitors planted in the Gu family by other forces have been killed, so there are still few cultivators who know about this.
And the reason why Gu Qingyan asked these cultivators to come to the Beigu Mountains to study the matter of leasing spirit veins is to use them to spread the news that the Gu family has a ninth-level spirit vein.
After this matter is publicized, if someone wants to plot against the Gu family and start a war, it will be the best. If no one has the courage to do so, it can also show the current strength and financial resources of the Gu family.
Although these are not the main purpose of upgrading the spirit vein, it does not prevent Gu Qingyan from making a fuss about it.
It may be because many independent cultivators and recruited cultivators have gained a lot of benefits in the Bone Clan battlefield. Even though the Gu family has put forward various conditions, there are still many cultivators who want to rent the Gu family's spiritual veins to develop their power. In the past month, Gu Qingyan has met a total of 375 cultivators who want to rent the Gu family's spiritual veins.
Among them, about 230 are cultivators or forces that have appeared in the Bone Clan battlefield, and they have prepared sufficient spiritual stones.
After clarifying the grade of the spiritual vein they want to rent, Gu Haoxiao will take people to see the map of the corresponding spiritual vein, and help introduce what special products are there on the spiritual vein, or mineral veins and springs and other assets. As for the ground fire, even if it is not on the original spiritual vein, high-level cultivators will open one by themselves, which is not a difficult task.
If Gu Haoxiao is in a good mood, he may also help introduce whether there are any neighbors nearby, and who the nearest high-level spiritual vein is rented to, and how many miles there are high-level markets.
Seeing that the various markings on the map were so clear, and even the number of meters of many mineral veins and the approximate amount of reserves were clearly recorded, the cultivators who came to rent naturally felt magical. They didn't know when in the world of immortal cultivation, there was such a means to detect the surface and underground so clearly. Could it be that the Gu family got something good from the Bone Clan?
Some people speculated so, and some of the bolder ones tried to ask.
But the Gu family would naturally not explain such things to outsiders. Whenever faced with such questions, the Gu family cultivators only needed to remain silent and smile. If the other party continued to ask, then sorry, dear fellow Taoist, you have crossed the line. You must know that you are only here to do business with my Gu family, not to make enemies with my Gu family. My Gu family is only interested in the spiritual stones in your pocket, and does not like your head that looks unremarkable and ordinary, and after burning, there are less than three taels of ash.
Of course, there are still relatively few such ignorant people.
The power of the Gu family is now at its peak in the Land of Spiritual Destruction. Even the ninth-level spiritual veins are not shy about other cultivators. How many of these scattered cultivators who have not yet established their own power will come to investigate the secrets of the Gu family?
In this way, a month has passed, and the Gu family has rented out a total of 637 spiritual veins, and the white spirit stones have flowed into the Gu family treasury again.
As for why only more than 300 people came to inquire, but 637 spiritual veins were rented out, because many people rent more than one spiritual vein at a time!
Many cultivators who rent high-level spiritual veins will rent several nearby low-level spiritual veins by the way, and if Gu Qingyan occasionally sees a familiar face, he will waive the rent of some spiritual veins to attract people, plus Gu Haoxiao's sales promotion, so the spiritual veins rented out are much more than expected.
But even so, there are still some spiritual veins left, and the Gu family is not in a hurry. There is still a long time. It has been less than two years since the end of the Bone Clan War!
In the past year or so, Gu Qingyan and other elders in charge of the Gu family's Changfeng have been very busy, especially the elders in charge of the commercial industry, who are eager to refine a few clones to help them handle affairs.
The reason is simple, the Bone Clan has too many industries!
The shops that have been destroyed in the war are not counted. After all, the entire Bone Clan territory is now owned by the Gu family. Even if the shops are still there, they have to be rebuilt because of different aesthetics; but the industries behind the shops, such as a whole spiritual tree of the spiritual vein, a whole valley of specialties that have been tamed and suitable for transportation or refining beasts, are all treasures!
There were so many industries like this that the elders and stewards previously employed by the Gu family were too busy to handle them all at once, so they had to promote and employ some newcomers. However, newcomers always had some unfamiliarities and were prone to causing trouble. The original elders were busy teaching the newcomers while handling their own affairs, and from time to time they had to help deal with the mess made by the newly promoted subordinates, which was simply adding insult to injury.
