Chapter 247: Xingyuefang Market
"The candidate for the deputy city lord of Dragon King Immortal City..."
After ending the communication, Fang Chen also began to think about this issue.
The establishment of the Dragon King's Immortal City was beyond his expectation. Now that the arrow was on the string, he had to take action.
Xu Qiyun's energy recently has been in Tai Chi Fairy City, and he doesn't know much about the Wang family, so it is not appropriate for him to recommend candidates.
"Since you can't make up your mind, why don't you use the spirit mirror to call everyone together to discuss it?"
Just when Fang Chen had a headache, Zhu Yueyao shook a small mirror at him. Even though he had only seen it once, he still recognized it as a spiritual mirror.
"When did you get a spiritual mirror?"
Fang Chen was extremely curious when he saw this scene, so he asked.
"You'd better quickly sense how long it took to refine the innate spirit blank this time."
Zhu Yueyao covered her mouth with her spirit mirror and said to Fang Chen with a smile.
Fang Chen suddenly realized that three days had passed.
It was obvious that in his perception, less than a few hours had passed.
"When your life span becomes long, your perception of time will become very insensitive, especially when you are practicing."
Zhu Yueyao added the theory she explained to Fang Chen a few days ago.
Fang Chen also had a deeper understanding of this point, and sighed and said: "The purpose of cultivating to a higher realm is to gain a longer life, but the higher the realm, the more time you need to spend on cultivation. In this way, wouldn’t it be like falling into a vicious cycle? Is it true that our monks’ desire for eternal life is in vain?”
"I didn't expect that you would have such insights at the foundation-building realm. It's rare, but there is no need to fall into such a trap. The higher the realm, the stronger the strength. Strength is the key to controlling destiny."
Yue Yunni was also a little surprised by what Fang Chen said. This was not the kind of insight that a foundation-building monk could have.
All I can say is that he is worthy of being the savior chosen by heaven, and he is indeed different from ordinary people.
"Really? I don't think so. Precisely because strength is regarded as the only thing, the fighting between monks will become more and more intense and cannot stop, which has led to the world of cultivation becoming what it is now."
Fang Chen was not completely convinced by Yue Yunni's statement, but he didn't just refute it simply, he lowered his head and started thinking.
"What you said is a little off topic. Aren't you going to decide on the deputy city lord of the Dragon King's Immortal City? Do you want to use the spirit mirror to hold the meeting?"
Zhu Yueyao spoke at the right time to break the silence.
Even though they were once Immortal Emperors, they couldn't give a definite answer to what Fang Chen and Yue Yunni were discussing. Talking about it now is just a waste of time.
Might as well get down to business quickly.
"That's right. Use a spiritual mirror, right?"
Fang Chen also stopped thinking, picked up the luck divine mirror and started operating it.
"You still don't know how to use the spirit mirror to hold a meeting? Let me teach you - ah, when did you learn this?"
Seeing Fang Chen pick up the Divine Mirror of Luck again, Zhu Yueyao also hurried over, wanting to show off the operation method of the Divine Mirror she had just learned.
Then she saw Fang Chen turn on the communication function smoothly, find the group they had joined with ease, and start a video conference without hesitation.
"After establishing the connection with the Divine Fortune Mirror, I will know what functions it has."
Not a word of this sentence is true.
The main reason why Fang Chen is so handy is that when Tian Yu designed this communication function, there was no originality at all and it was all plagiarism.
So for him, there is no difficulty in getting started.
Before entering this group chat, Fang Chen took a quick glance. He had already been pulled into eight group chats, and all the messages were ninety-nine plus. It had only been three days since he got the spiritual book, and he had already started to join the group chat. He felt helpless and funny.
The group chat in Fang Chen's video conference was filled with the city lords and deputy city lords of Immortal City. Of course, Zhao Qian, who manages Yueshenfang City, and several deacons were also in it.
In addition, Zheng Pingkang, who has completed the handover with Han Zhao and is stationed on Ghost Island, is also in the group.
In just a moment, everyone agreed to the meeting.
Another unusually familiar interface appeared on the screen of Qiyun Shenjian.
"Ahem."
The corners of Fang Chen's eyes twitched uncontrollably twice. He cleared his throat first, and then said those words: "Can you hear me?"
"You can hear it!"
The unanimous reply made him subconsciously look for the button to turn down the volume, but unfortunately there was no such thing on the Luck Divine Book.
"City Lord, what's the matter?"
Seeing that Fang Chen did not continue to speak, Xu Qiyun, who was far away in Tai Chi Fairy City, said something.
"It's mainly about Senior Longjia. He is also in the group. He just invited me to go to the newly established Dragon King Immortal City. I definitely want to go, but Dragon King Immortal City also needs us to send a deputy city lord. Do you have any suitable ones? The choice?”
Although Long Jia was also in the group, Fang Chen did not shy away from it. The deputy city lord of Dragon King Immortal City must also get Long Jia's approval.
"Let me tell you, Yuehua Immortal City no longer needs Lao Lin to be the deputy city lord. It is better to send him here. His strength is high and his level of formation is unique. He is enough to overwhelm everyone in the Wang family and completely destroy Dragon King Immortal City. Integrate into the Immortal Dynasty.”
As for Long Jia, his position is not entirely on the side of the Wang family, but considering the wishes of the eldest lady of the Wang family, he cannot use too rough methods.
In this case, the deputy city lord sent by Yuehua Immortal City had better be stronger than everyone in the Wang family and be able to see the future of the Wang family.
Lin Qingshan is a perfect choice.
"Old Lin, what do you think?"
Fang Chen touched his chin and did not express an opinion. Instead, he asked Lin Qingshan what he thought.
"I can't. During this period of time, I have to learn from Senior Tianyu, and at the same time, I will modify the fairy houses that have been built in the past so that their conditions can be connected to the spirit mirror so that we can check the situation."
Lin Qingshan shook his head, he also had something serious to do recently.
"How is Wang Changlin?"
Zhao Qian, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly spoke and named a person.
"Wang Changlin?"
Fang Chen thought about it and realized that this was indeed a choice. Wang Changlin was the younger brother of the head of the Wang family. The lord of the Dragon King Immortal City was Long Jia. The deputy city lord of the Wang family was naturally the head of the Wang family.
If Wang Changlin is regarded as the representative of Yuehua Fairy City, it goes without saying that there are benefits. He is the number two figure in the Wang family and knows everything about the Wang family. Moreover, he himself also has the idea of relying on Yuehua Fairy City to compete for power with his elder brother.
Moreover, if Wang Changlin is appointed as the second deputy city lord, the Wang family will not resist, and it will be easier for them to integrate into the Immortal Dynasty.
However, the shortcomings of this are also obvious. Other Wang family members will not say anything, but the head of the Wang family will definitely object.
And it never shows on the surface.
Wang Changlin would also be happy to fight with him openly and secretly.
What Fang Chen needs is the Dragon King's Immortal City that can develop, not the Wang family that is trapped in internal strife.
"It's inappropriate. The Wang brothers already have conflicts. If this arrangement intensifies the conflicts, it will not be a good thing for the Dragon King's Immortal City and the entire Immortal Dynasty."
Not only Fang Chen, Xu Qiyun also immediately thought clearly about the disadvantages of this and immediately raised objections.
"I also support Lao Xu's view."
Long Jia also expressed his position. Due to the eldest daughter of the Wang family, he actually preferred the head of the Wang family. If Wang Changlin came back to intervene, it would indeed make his position awkward.
"Speaking of Wang Changlin, I have other plans for him, but I don't know if Senior Long Jia can agree to it?"
Fang Chen also preferred not to appoint Wang Changlin, so he simply used another method to reject Zhao Qian's proposal.
"You say it first."
Long Jia was also cautious, fearing that Fang Chen would say any more plans that would intensify the conflict between the Wang brothers.
"Isn't he and the Dianchu brothers opening a port on the east coast of Jueling Swamp? I decided to build it into a fortress. After all, Yuehua Immortal City is located in the center of Jueling Swamp, and it is difficult to cope with Dragon King Immortal City in the south and Taiji Immortal City in the north. ”
In Fang Chen's original plan, Taiji Immortal City, Yuehua Immortal City and Dragon King Immortal City were all close to the coast, and were located in the upper, middle and lower areas of the lower defense line. The three immortal cities were then connected through formations to create an insurmountable copper wall. .
Of course, if the middle defense line responsible for the two major sects fails, then this iron wall will become the Maginot Line of Defense.
If there was only Lin Qingshan, the formation connecting the three fairy cities would be just a fantasy. Fortunately, there was Tian Yu whose level of formation was far above him.
However, after Tianyu listened to his idea, he pointed out that Yuehua Fairy City was in the Jueling Swamp and could not connect with the other two fairy cities through formations.
If you skip Yuehua Immortal City, the distance between the other two Immortal Cities is too far, and a weak area will appear in the middle of the formation.
In Tianyu's words, he opened his arms but exposed his chest.
"What the city lord means is to let Chang Lin be responsible for building this port into a new fairy city? But it is very close to Yuehua Fairy City. In the future, the expansion of Yuehua Fairy City will include it. It seems a bit unnecessary."
Long Jia understood what Fang Chen meant, but also raised his own questions.
"I think that if it is to fight against the demonic cultivators, then building an additional fairy city is an affordable price."
Zhao Qian, who initially recommended Wang Changlin, once again expressed his opinion.
"The price is indeed nothing, but now Taiji Immortal City and Dragon King Immortal City are in the initial stage of construction, and our manpower and material resources cannot keep up."
Xu Qiyun raised a very practical question. Although the appearance of lowercase numbers has greatly improved the average calculation level of the Immortal Dynasty, there are still not many people whose calculation level reaches the standard for learning formations.
Lin Qingshan only accepted ten disciples, but these ten disciples usually selected people who were capable of learning formations to teach them. Most of these people became the weapon refiners of the weapon refiner workshop or the makers of the talisman making workshop. Talisman Master.
Except for Lin Qingshan and his disciples, there is no one who can arrange the formation independently.
But the construction of the fairy city cannot be separated from the formation master.
Nowadays, both Taiji Fairy City and Luna City have begun to carry out arithmetic education, but the results are not ideal.
Without Lin Qingshan's step-by-step teaching, these people would not learn quickly, and there was no Lin Qingshan to explore their talents.
This is also the disadvantage of increasing the number of people.
Unless you are a particularly brilliant genius, there will be no difference at all.
"There is no need to build a fairy city. We can build the port into a new city like Luna City."
Fang Chen has also thought about the problem of manpower and material resources, and has already had a solution.
That is to build the port into a city.
"Fangshi?"
Many people have raised questions.
"Yes, the biggest advantage of this port is that the big ship of the Sea Demon Gang makes a trip to and from the Star-Moon Sea every three months. I think many monks will be attracted by the good things of the Star-Moon Sea."
Fang Chen also expressed his thoughts, which was basically an expanded version of the port plan Wang Changlin told him before.
"The Monk Alliance has been established, but we still do business with the Demonic Cultivator Alliance openly. Isn't it bad?"
Longjia frowned and expressed his concerns.
He did not doubt that many monks would be attracted by the Xingyue Sea sign, but when he mentioned Xingyue Sea, the first thing that came to mind was the Demonic Cultivation Alliance.
The purpose of establishing the Monk Alliance is to confront the Demonic Cultivator Alliance. They are also considered to be the top leaders of the Monk Alliance. It would be inappropriate to do business with the Demonic Cultivator Alliance at this time.
"Business is business, don't worry, even if the Demonic Cultivator Alliance and the Monk Alliance begin to confront each other, the Xingyue Sea side will never suspend its transactions with this side. This is an intelligence system that both sides can use. As for who can ultimately The winner depends on who is more skilled.”
Fang Chen shook his head and put forward a different view.
After the establishment of the Monk Alliance, will the transactions between the righteous monks and Xingyue Sea decrease?
Absolutely not.
Instead, there will be a small climax.
Moreover, their transactions with the Demonic Cultivation Alliance are scattered and difficult to track.
It would be better to establish a special port market in Yuehua Fairy City. In this way, most transactions can be framed in this market.
More importantly, this port city can serve as the connection point between Taiji Immortal City and Dragon King Immortal City, replacing Yuehua Immortal City as the eye of the formation.
"This is a good idea, but since this port is on the coast in the middle of the Jueling Swamp, if you want to get here, you have to go around from both coasts. It may be a bit troublesome for other forces, right?"
Ye Qingyang, who had been silent, also raised a very practical question.
Even if you can buy items from Xingyue Sea here, the location is not very good and will discourage a large portion of the customer flow.
"This is even simpler. We can build a transmission channel somewhere and let other forces go to Gangfang City through this transmission channel. We can also use this method to clarify the relationship between Gangfang City and us so that outsiders don't know. Who established this city remains a mystery.”
Fang Chen had already had an idea about this, and that was the transmission channel.
"Then where will the other end of the transmission channel be located?"
Ye Qingyang asked again.
"Of course it's Luna City, but it can't be in Luna Pavilion. It should make people think that even the mayor of Luna City doesn't know that this transmission channel exists."
Fang Chen, who had already prepared a draft, gave the answer.
No one raised any more questions, so he made a final decision: "That's it. As for the name of Gangfang City, let's just call it Xingyuefang City."
"So, who should we send as the deputy city lord of Dragon King Immortal City?"
After finalizing the plan for the port city, Long Jia once again raised the initial question.
All participants in the video conference fell silent.
Although a very meaningful thing was just discussed, it must be said that the meeting deviated from the original theme.
A leader came today. He just came back and updated a chapter of 4,000 words.
