Chapter 174: Each Doing His Own Job
The three of them finished picking up the bride. Since only Huang Yuangong had a storage bag, the other two were carrying large and small packages.
When they had collected all their belongings and packed them up and brought them over, the five people who had not left Fang Yun suddenly woke up.
Although they were alone, they had not yet dealt with their floating wealth and residence on the island, so they could not leave immediately, so they asked Fang Yun for leave and went back to get their things.
At noon, Fang Yun, who was resting with his eyes closed, heard the movement outside. The flying boat prepared by Feng Kai had arrived and was already waiting at the door.
After a while, the other five people also hurried over, recruiting eight tenants, plus their three relatives, plus Fang Yun, a total of twelve people, and the flying boat in front of them was spacious enough to accommodate them.
This flying boat is made of Xuanling wood, which is expensive and has the wonderful function of being as big or small as you want.
The maximum length can be increased to a medium-sized ship of 60 feet and 35 feet wide, and there are some simple wooden houses inside, which can be hidden in the cabin.
After signing the lease, Fang Yun also paid the rent to Feng Kai, and gave him a few medium-grade spirit stones, but this time the other party did not accept them.
Flying boat leasing is also a business of Wanbao Pavilion, but it is not something that ordinary people can handle.
Without a little integrity guarantee, empty talk, don't do this kind of business. Those who can rent flying boats from Wanbao Pavilion are generally acquaintances or familiar forces, and there must be certain guarantees to ensure that he will not default on the debt.
Of course, it is almost impossible to default on the debt of Wanbao Pavilion. As long as Feng Kai can get in touch with Master Jinyan of the Red Flame League, Fang Yun feels that Wanbao Pavilion is not that simple.
This is indeed the case. Afterwards, he had a simple investigation of Wanbao Pavilion. This force is relatively deep and mysterious, and Beixuan Island is just one of its branches.
Moreover, they have special cooperation with the Red Flame League, or it should be said that they have special cooperation with the Yulong Sect.
So even though Feng Kai is just a small branch store owner, he probably has a good background.
If Fang Yun didn't want to return to White Bear Island quickly, he wouldn't have rented a flying boat. If he really wanted to save money, taking a sea ship would have the same effect.
Although it is winter recently and there are fewer fishing boats going out to sea, there are still merchant ships for trade, especially now, because of the changes on Donghu Island, reconstruction requires a lot of resources and materials, and the merchants coming and going recently have made a lot of money.
But taking a sea ship is too slow, at least it will be delayed for half a month, which is really troublesome.
He can still fly with a sword and even carry people, but he can't transport these cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining one by one. The time spent on going back and forth is probably almost the same as the time on the sea ship. It's better to spend some money and rent a flying boat directly to save trouble!
Moreover, Feng Kai also said clearly, "Brother Han, when the main materials of the magic weapon are transported to Beixuan Island next month, I will personally deliver it to your door and ask you to help me refine the magic weapon and take back the flying boat you rented."
"That's what I want!"
The other party saved him the step of returning the flying boat, so Fang Yun naturally agreed.
Speaking of which, he and Feng Kai can only be regarded as casual friends, but the friendship built by sending spirit stones several times makes Fang Yun feel a little sympathetic. At least this old man really does things when he gives spirit stones.
He is also quite honest in doing business. For example, the location of the Yulong Xiaozhai before is really good, and there are many customers coming and going.
He briefly familiarized himself with the driving process. In fact, it is similar to the trend magic weapon, but because the flying boat is slightly larger, it has a rudder and a sail, and requires delicate operation. After everyone boarded the flying boat, Fang Yun drove it away.
Halfway through the journey, Fang Yun was thinking about the next arrangement while driving the boat.
According to the introduction of everyone, Fang Yun also understood their respective skills. He had a preliminary outline of the island's construction plan in his mind. After returning to White Bear Island, he would arrange it and let others work on their own.
Since no one chose to withdraw, Fang Yun still had to sign a more compliant employment contract with everyone, just like the one he signed at the Li family.
There would not be any too strict regulations, just stipulating the rights and obligations of both parties.
Fang Yun provided spiritual power guarantee, housing and means of production for protection and cultivation, and everyone only needed to work for him and pay taxes.
Compared with the tenants and casual cultivators recruited by other immortal cultivation forces, Fang Yun's conditions were generous.
In fact, Fang Yun himself did not care about this income at all.
Even if these incomes and his efforts could not reach a balance between income and expenditure, it didn't matter.
He mainly wanted to make the visible income, which was to be handed over to the taxes of the Red Flame League and the Dragon Control Sect, that is, to occupy the part of the spirit stones that White Bear Island was going to give, so that no one would suspect the source.
"We occupy White Bear Island so that we can farm and raise dragons in peace, and grow up in peace. We must not forget this!"
People like Huang Yuangong did not know this.
In his opinion, the generous conditions offered by Fang Yun were so good that even he could not refuse them.
Even if he would stay on the island for two years, it was worth it.
For cultivators, two years is really not a long time.
That is, cultivators in the early and middle stages of Qi Refining have a low cultivation rate and do not need to go into seclusion.
But when it comes to the middle and late stages of Qi Refining, cultivators often go into seclusion for several months to one or two years, which is common.
Fang Yun closed the island and did not allow anyone to go out for two years. He wanted to produce a real spirit dragon on the island. If he stayed on a big island like Beixuan Island to do this kind of work, even in the cave he rented, it would easily cause trouble.
So Fang Yun would rather spend all his energy to occupy an island, just to be able to develop in peace.
