Chapter 128: Expansion of Power
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
Xu Qiyun nodded, then turned around and prepared to leave.
Whenever there is a good harvest in Yuehua Fairy City, it is his busiest time, but he also enjoys it.
"Wait a minute, Lunafang City needs a person in charge, who do you think is more suitable?"
Of course Fang Chen would not let him go like this. Lunafang City also needed manpower, and the selection of these manpower could only be done by Xu Qiyun.
Having managed Yuehua Fairy City for a long time, he has the best understanding of everyone's abilities.
"If the city lord needs someone to manage Yueshenfang City, then the most suitable person should be Zhao Qian."
Xu Qiyun didn't even think about it. After hearing Fang Chen's question, he gave the answer directly.
"Zhao Qian?"
Fang Chen touched his chin. This person's teaching ability was indeed pretty good, but could he do a good job in managing a city?
And more importantly.
"If he is appointed to manage Luna City, will anyone be dissatisfied?"
Fang Chen was talking about Zhao Qian's qualifications.
Zhao Qian was not the first batch of residents of Yuehua Immortal City.
Fang Chen also understood that his ability was definitely not top-notch enough to crush all the first residents of Yuehua Fairy City.
The few masters who had taught with Xu Qiyun from the beginning were only a little behind Zhao Qian.
They also followed Fang Chen and others through the development stage of Yuehua Immortal City, and directly appointed Zhao Qian to manage Yueshenfang City, which failed to satisfy everyone.
At least Fang Chen wanted to give these masters a chance.
"This problem can also be easily solved. Let the people who want to become Lunafang City managers each take charge of a part of the business and compete with who can do it better."
Xu Qiyun heard what Fang Chen meant and gave him a solution.
Compared to Zhao Qian, these masters are closer to him.
The reason why he only recommended Zhao Qian was to avoid suspicion and didn't want Fang Chen to think that he was recommending someone because of his close relationship.
"Then do as you say."
Fang Chen nodded. All he could do was give everyone a chance. As for who can grasp it, it depends on their own ability and understanding.
"What Zhao Gan did is easy to say. After all, compared to the rest of us, he only came two months later. Who can join us later?"
After they finished their discussion, Lin Qingshan, who had been watching from the side, also intervened in the conversation.
Fang Chen knew what he was talking about.
As Yuehua Fairy City continues to expand, more and more people will join them. If there are talents with more outstanding abilities, they should indeed be promoted to appropriate positions.
However, the various divisions of labor in Immortal City have been clearly defined. Suddenly a new person comes, and his treatment and status in this division of labor exceed his own, which will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the previous people.
Even if you don't say it with your mouth, there will still be a thorn in your heart.
"The nobility is to reward merit, and the post is to confer abilities."
Fang Chen thought for a while and said this.
After listening, Xu Qiyun fell into deep thought, but Lin Qingshan was very puzzled and asked directly: "What do you mean?"
"What the city lord means is that those who joined Fairy City earlier have made contributions, and they should be given higher status and treatment. For key positions, capable people should be selected."
Xu Qiyun answered on behalf of Fang Chen.
"That's what it means."
Fang Chen nodded. In terms of management, Xu Qiyun was indeed more sensitive than Lin Qingshan.
"It's a solution."
After listening, Lin Qingshan also felt that this method had the best of both worlds.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Immortal City has a good harvest now. You still have a lot of things to be busy with. Don't waste time here."
Seeing that he understood, Fang Chen quickly said to Xu Qiyun.
"Then I'll take my leave first."
Xu Qiyun then remembered that he still had many things to be busy with and left quickly.
"I'm also going to prepare the items needed to set up the formation in Luna City."
Lin Qingshan also left the top floor and returned to his room.
Seeing that he was the only one left on the top floor again, Fang Chen shook his head, walked to the training ground in a few steps, took out the Moon God Flower and Moon Flower Spirit Grass, and started the routine training.
The development of Yuehua Immortal City is on the one hand, and his own task is to continuously improve his strength.
At least before foundation building, cultivation was the most important thing in his eyes.
For monks, building the foundation is just the beginning.
What's more, the big ship on the shore of Jueling Swamp makes a trip every three months, constantly transporting soil with forbidden spirit grass to the Star-Moon Sea.
It is foreseeable that the war between immortals and demons will come soon.
He must at least reach the foundation building stage before he can have both sides in the battle between immortals and demons and strive for more benefits for Yuehua Immortal City.
Although Zheng Pingkang and Ling Nian clones can use soul gathering to achieve foundation building strength, they are still inferior to real foundation building monks.
In the plan to secretly take over Feng Country, Fang Chen did not consider letting Zheng Pingkang and Ling Nian clones take action. Although he wanted to hide it from Long Jia, there were also reasons for this.
After clearing his mind, Fang Chen also officially entered meditation.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
Feeling that his cultivation had improved a little bit, Fang Chen didn't feel much joy.
After consuming spiritual grains every day again, the speed of cultivation has indeed increased a lot, but it is still far away to break through the seventh level of Qi training.
From the sixth level of Qi training to the seventh level of Qi training, you need to open up the Yangming Sutra in your hands.
Symmetrical on the left and right, there are a total of twenty pairs of acupuncture points.
Currently, Fang Chen has opened up the third pair of acupoints, Sanjian acupoints, and the fourth pair of acupoints, Hegu acupoints, are also within reach.
According to the speed of cultivation after eating spiritual grains, the twentieth pair of acupoints, Yingxiang acupoints, will be opened up within a year.
For most cultivators, this is already quite fast.
But for Fang Chen, it is still too slow.
He can only hope that the yellow bud grass will mature in two months.
After the yellow bud grass is harvested, it will be possible to refine the yellow bud pill to quickly improve his cultivation.
Standing up, Fang Chen took out his son jade slip and sent a message to Lin Qingshan.
After a while, footsteps were heard outside.
"Dong Dong Dong——"
"Come in."
Lin Qingshan pushed the door open and walked in. Without saying hello to Fang Chen, he patted his storage bag and showed a piece of jade magic weapon and polished jade stone.
Then he said to Fang Chen: "City Lord, these are all things needed to set up the protective formation. You should put them in the Immortal Palace first."
"Okay."
Fang Chen naturally had no reason to refuse. After all, only the second-generation Immortal Palace in his Dantian could enter the Teleportation Immortal Palace.
He summoned the second-generation Immortal Palace and put all these things in.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Qingshan also took off the storage bag on his body, then took out the jade token, walked to the Teleportation Immortal Palace in the study, and entered it.
"Really impatient."
Fang Chen also chuckled and followed.
"The independent space in the Dantian is higher in level, but it can enter the low-level space such as the storage bag. The main reason is that the Dantian's "shell" prevents the pressure of the high-level space from being released."
As soon as he came in, he heard Lin Qingshan say this.
Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that this was the answer to the question that Lin Qingshan said he didn't know three days ago.
"Then why-"
After reacting, he had a new question.
However, Lin Qingshan also predicted his behavior and interrupted him directly: "I don't know more, anyway, that's what the disciple of the Blood Demon Palace said, and the demon cultivators seem to have done corresponding research."
"Okay then."
Fang Chen had to give up asking and walked into the transmission channel side by side with Lin Qingshan.
After walking quickly, in less than half an hour, the two of them appeared in the guest room of the Wang family.
Nothing here has changed. The He family father and son thought that Fang Chen and the others were still in the room and didn't dare to disturb them.
With a spiritual scan, the He family father and son actually arranged two maids to wait at the door.
"This He family father and son is also quite interesting."
Lin Qingshan also discovered this and said with a smile.
"All these useless things."
Rubbing his eyebrows, Fang Chen gently pushed open the door of the guest room and ordered the maid outside: "Go and notify your master to come over."
"Ah? Yes, yes, Immortal Master."
The two maids reacted for a while, then turned their eyes to Fang Chen and respectfully accepted the order.
Fang Chen nodded in satisfaction and closed the door.
"Is this the Immortal? He is indeed very celestial and heroic."
"Yeah."
Fang Chen, who was waiting for the He family father and son in the room, heard the two maids discussing in a low voice outside.
Maybe they thought that if they lowered their voices, he would not be able to hear them. Unfortunately, even if they had walked out more than ten steps, their voices could still reach his ears clearly.
"Hahahaha——"
Of course, Lin Qingshan also heard it and laughed out loud.
After laughing enough, he started to tease again: "City Lord, your charm is really beyond words. You have captured the hearts of two girls so quickly."
"Of course."
Fang Chen knew that he must not follow the other party's rhythm at this time. He showed a confident smile and admitted it shamelessly.
Sure enough, Lin Qingshan was also stunned for a moment, not knowing how to continue.
After a moment, he shook his head and said: "I really can't argue with you."
"Hahaha——"
This time it was Fang Chen's turn to laugh.
The two of them didn't have to wait long before the father and son of the He family came together.
This time, their housekeeper He Lai was not there.
"Manager Fang, Deputy City Lord Lin."
As soon as he came in, he greeted Fang Chen and the others first, and then talked about business: "I have asked A Lai to organize all the tenants and servants to come together to accept the gift of the Chamber of Commerce."
"Then go first."
Fang Chen was very satisfied with their direct access to the topic, and he didn't intend to waste time chatting.
"Yes!"
The father and son of the He family responded and immediately led the way.
When they walked out of the He family manor, they saw a group of people standing outside the door.
At a glance, there were nearly a thousand people, both adults and children.
The spirits of this group of people were pretty good, and their clothes were clean and tidy, and even patches were rarely seen.
"It's the boss."
"I've heard that the boss is in good health. God bless you."
"Not only the boss, you see, even the young boss looks much better than before."
...
Before they stood still, they heard a burst of discussion from below.
The subject was the father and son of the He family.
Judging from these voices and the expressions of those people below, the father and son of the He family probably did a lot of good deeds on weekdays.
"Everyone, be quiet, the master has something to say."
Seeing that the master, the young master and the two immortals had come out, He Lai hurried to maintain order.
He was obviously very prestigious among these people, and the discussions that had been going on for a long time stopped in an instant.
"Everyone, it was the idea of these two immortals to gather everyone today. Two months ago, it was the immortals who cured my son and I of our illnesses."
He Shan first introduced Fang Chen and Lin Qingshan.
However, he did not mention the Moon God Chamber of Commerce and Yuehua Fairy City.
He also knew the limits and knew not to say things that should not be said.
"Immortal?!"
Speaking of the word "immortal", the audience immediately exploded again.
For mortals living in the world of cultivation, immortals coexist with them in this world, but they are out of reach.
Therefore, their expressions are also different.
There are shock, surprise, awe, fear...
There are so many.
"Quiet."
He Lai spoke again to maintain order.
"The immortal not only cured my father and me, but also decided to teach the immortal way here so that we can all become immortals!"
The scene became quiet, and He Shan spoke again.
"Teach the way of immortality?"
"Can we all become immortals?!"
"Long live the immortals!"
"Long live the immortals!"
...
Fang Chen's sight quickly swept to the one who took the lead in shouting "Long live the immortals", but he didn't say much. He took a step forward and released the aura of a sixth-level Qi training cultivator.
The scene was instantly silent.
"Let the children under six years old stand on the other side, and the women holding babies should wait on the side first."
Fang Chen then told He Lai another thing.
Unless the meridians are not fully developed before the age of six, practicing rashly will only damage the foundation.
Unless there is a genius who can protect the meridians, or a gifted talent, it is better to wait until the age of six to practice.
Not to mention the women holding babies, they can certainly practice, but these babies cannot be left unattended, so they should come in batches.
He Lai quickly handled everything according to Fang Chen's requirements.
Fang Chen also began to teach the practice method.
Still using the cheating method, let them eat spiritual objects with appropriate amount of spiritual energy, and then he and Lin Qingshan will guide them to transform into mana.
He has done this three times, and he is very familiar with it. Of course, it went smoothly this time.
The spiritual objects used are semi-spiritual food made from spiritual grains that have just been harvested and cooked with ordinary grains.
"Is this, immortal power?"
"I feel like I am a dozen years younger!"
"Isn't it said that immortals can fly? Mom, you can also fly one for me to see~"
These mortals who have embarked on the path of cultivation behaved exactly like the residents of Yuehua Immortal City at the beginning, which made Fang Chen miss them a little.
Half a year ago, he entered the Absolute Spirit Swamp alone. At that time, he was penniless.
Up to now, not only has Yuehua Immortal City been established in the Absolute Spirit Swamp, but also the two trade channels of Xingyuehai and Wang Family have been established, and the window of Yuehua Immortal City to the outside world has been opened.
Now, nearly a thousand cultivators of the first level of Qi training have been added.
Fang Chen believes that as long as they are properly coordinated, these people will be a great boost to the development of Yueshenfang City.
It will also be the first step for Yuehua Xiancheng to expand its influence to the entire Feng Country.
Today is a 4,000-word chapter. I have been busy these two days, so I can only update it this way. Sorry.
