"Senior, you have such a high level of cultivation, so there is no need to pretend to be a Shushan disciple. We will respect you." Qi Lingshan consoled him.

"Why should I pretend to be a Shushan disciple?" Chu Liang said helplessly, "If I want to pretend, wouldn't it be better to pretend to be the other Nine Heavens Immortal Sect?"

When he said this, the eyes of the other people became even more bizarre.

Qi Lingmu said: "Senior, maybe you are not pretending, but you haven't returned to Shushan for a long time, and you haven't been around the world anymore, right?"

"That's true." Chu Liang nodded.

"Since the rise of Hongmian Peak, Shushan won the first prize in the Immortal Sect Conference again. In the following years, it has developed rapidly, and the situation of the disciples has been much better than before." Qi Lingmu also introduced: "Although other immortal sects also wanted to follow suit, they were unable to do so.

The second Hongmian Peak was built. Although there are no artifacts in Shushan now, the benefits to its disciples are much better than those of other Nine Heavens Immortal Sects."

"Is it better than Taotie City?" Chu Liang asked.

Qi Lingshan said: "When we were young, we all heard that Taotie City is the largest market in the world of immortality, but now it is about to fall to the third place."

"Third?" Chu Liang was puzzled when he heard this, "Forget it being overtaken by Red Cotton Peak, who else can compete with Taotie City?"

"Xianrenfang." Qi Lingyue continued: "Since the Sixth Princess of the Yu Dynasty took over Xianrenfang a few years ago and made drastic reforms, Xianrenfang has suddenly emerged."

Through conversations with these three people, Chu Liang roughly understood the changes in the business landscape of the world of immortality in recent years.

At first, the rise of Hongmian Peak divided the market in the Southern Territory. Taotie City did not pay attention to this and even invested in it. Of course, Hongmian Peak also returned a large amount of dividends. Taotie City's investment in Hongmian Peak,

In terms of profit alone, it is definitely a bloody profit.

But if you include others, it may not be wise.

At first, Hongmianfeng just imitated the model of Taotie City. With the first-mover advantage, it was impossible to surpass Taotie City. However, later Hongmianfeng began to take the high-end service route.

They have cultivated a team that is good at flying swords and is responsible for door-to-door delivery. Any large or small sects registered in the Yu Dynasty or surrounding small country forces can obtain the specialized delivery service of Hongmian Peak. Moreover, Hongmian Summit will bring customers to the realm

Register your needs such as exercises and exercises to create an exclusive special practice plan for customers.

There are very few idle practitioners in the world of cultivating immortals who buy a lot of expensive resources. Most of the resources are consumed by various immortal sects and other forces. By seizing these high-end customers, Hongmian Peak has monopolized most of the market and directly used its claws to

It extended out to the southern region and began to encroach on nine states from all over the world.

Later, some individual cultivators who consume a certain amount can also receive exclusive customized services.

In the past, when disciples of the Immortal Sect wanted to buy something, they had to go around Taotie City and find it by themselves. However, the bigger the Taotie City, the more time-consuming and labor-intensive the search process was, and there was also a risk to personal safety.

Now Hongmianfeng will deliver it directly to your home, so you can receive the items you want without leaving home. Even before you think about what you want to buy, the recommendation letter from Hongmianfeng has already arrived at your door.

The physical stores were directly hit hard. The shops under Hongmianfeng were still able to cooperate with it to transform, but the shops in Taotie City were miserable and once closed down on a large scale.

In this way, the attraction of Taotie City to the Immortal Sect disciples may only be to hang out and have fun.

But in terms of entertainment, Hongmianfeng has also done a better job. They have downplayed the shopping aspect and improved the entertainment aspect. They will hold celebrations, fireworks shows, carnival programs every major festival, and also launch their own mascots of colorful koi and

The mythical beast Bai Ze attracts a large number of tourists every day.

Today's Hongmian Peak is a large-scale business district integrating dining, entertainment, and shopping.

No matter from which aspect, practitioners no longer have the need to go to Taotie City, and this majestic city in the northern region is rapidly declining.

If there was only Hongmian Peak, Taotie City would not decline in a short period of time. After all, the foundation it has accumulated over the years has a huge advantage in resource collection, and it covers many things that Hongmian Peak does not have.

But Xianrenfang suddenly reformed.

Under the leadership of the Sixth Princess of the Yu Dynasty, Xianrenfang abandoned most of the high-end market and specialized in some affordable item resources, such as some highly demanded elixirs, talismans, or imitations of high-end magic weapons, relying on the imperial court

With its own channel advantages, it captured the low-end market in the world of immortality as soon as it launched.

It was blocked at both ends, almost strangling Taotie City's way of survival.

Taotie City is not without its struggles. The Lord of Taotie City has launched a war against Hongmian Peak three years ago, announcing that all shops in the city can only operate locally, cutting off the power of Hongmian Peak. He competes with Hongmian Peak in the collection of resources across the world.

, after all, the quantity of many scarce resources is fixed. If I receive it, you will not receive it. For this reason, I will not hesitate to increase the price.

With such a strategy of hurting the enemy by one thousand and damaging itself by two thousand, Taotie City still persists and wants to rely on its deep foundation to consume Hongmian Peak.

The response strategy of Hongmian Peak is to launch the "Red Cotton Loan" mechanism for advanced consumption.

That is, even if you don’t have money now, you can still come to Hongmian Peak to spend money. Depending on your sect background and past consumption, you will be given an overdraft limit. If you can’t pay it by the time limit, you can also use other resources or items to top it up.

In this way, many practitioners who are stuck at the barrier can get resource breakthroughs first and repay them later. Moreover, they do not need to pay any interest, which is a great benefit and naturally stimulates more consumption.

Of course, if you make up your mind not to repay the debt, Shushan does not lack a professional "debt collection team".

Relying on this hand, Shushan withstood the Taotie City's offensive that hurt both sides.

The past three years of competition have been difficult for both sides, but for suppliers like Gao Yueguo, it has been an absolute good time.

Originally, their crimson grass was sold to everyone at the same price, but now the two sides started to compete. The price of crimson grass increased every year, and they reaped great benefits.

After a while, when a new batch of crimson moon grass matured, both Hongmian Peak and Taotie City attached great importance to it, and then sent their respective backbones to negotiate with Gao Yue Kingdom.

…

Listening to their descriptions, Chu Liang was not too shocked.

Most of these development strategies were planned by him at the beginning and he also talked with people from Yinjianfeng. However, the part of the strategy that only developed the low-end market fell into the hands of Xianrenfang.

After thinking about it for a moment, he felt that this was a good move.

The foundation accumulated by Taotie City for many years is too strong. In terms of money burning, it is impossible to compare with the newly emerged Red Cotton Peak. At this time, it gave away part of the market, and even actively provided strategies to help the development of Xianrenfang, and attracted allies to join the most powerful ones first.

The defeat of Taotie City was definitely a masterstroke at the level of uniting Wu against Cao.

only……

With the wisdom of my friends, it is quite difficult to continue the strategy I left behind. If I can make breakthroughs on this basis, there must be someone with guidance from an expert behind it.

He couldn't help but curiously asked: "Who is in charge of Hongmian Peak now?"

"The main affairs are all taken care of by the Four Overlords of Shushan." Qi Lingyue replied: "The one who controls everything above them is the master of Silver Sword Peak of Shushan, Emperor Daughter Feng!"

When Qi Lingyue talked about the emperor's daughter Feng, her eyes were shining. She seemed to be envious of such a strong woman with both wisdom and beauty.

But Chu Liang immediately said categorically: "There is absolutely no such possibility."

He knows very well what Master is like. If you ask her to defeat Taotie City physically, it shouldn't be difficult. If you ask her to defeat the opponent in business... then it will probably develop into physics in the end.

You said she was responsible for leading a debt collection team, and Chu Liang believed it. If she could lead the entire Red Cotton Peak, Chu Liang wouldn't believe it even if she was beaten to death.

He was about to ask a few more questions when he suddenly heard a dragon roar in the distance.

"Roar--"

This roar was sinister and had a violent aura.

"Dragon!"

When the three people from Gao Yue Kingdom heard the roar of the dragon, they immediately became alert.

"Senior, we are here to track down the princess. We have important matters at hand, so we have to discuss it with you in detail another day." Qi Lingmu said, staring into the distance.

Listening to the roar of the demon dragon, Chu Liang felt that the aura was not weak. It might be difficult for these young people to deal with it. But he had just come out of the mountain and wanted to test the strength of his dragon heritage.
