Author: walking in the dark

Many mineral veins near Haiyunguan disappeared in one day, which caused a lot of gossip.

Although this happened in troubled times, it was still shocking enough.

Although these veins are not large, they are not small either. An ordinary sect would have to use Qi Refining Monks to mine them for several years.

However, now only a huge hole is left in place.

Although this incident has not spread widely, it has caused a lot of gossip because it appeared in many places.

Some people think it is a natural phenomenon and all the spiritual minerals have disappeared.

Some people also say that it is a legendary gold-swallowing beast. This kind of gold-swallowing beast specializes in feeding on various spiritual minerals. It is extremely rare and has a huge appetite. It will swallow an entire mineral vein in one day.

Of course, some people speculate that the ore veins in it were dug out using extremely advanced five-element magic.

And if he is a monk, then he must be at the golden elixir level.

It's just that although the quantity of these mineral veins is large, the quality is low. It is a huge amount for ordinary Qi refining monks, but it is nothing to Golden elixir monks.

So why would a golden elixir monk go out of his way to mine these mines and find a way to sell them?

This phenomenon has caused many people to have chaotic thoughts in their minds, but they can't think of the real reason, so they can only treat it as rumors.

But at this time, He Qing had already returned to Haiyun Temple.

In a three-story red lacquer warm pavilion, there are paintings and calligraphy hanging everywhere, celadon and enamel bottles placed everywhere, as well as some unicorn jade statues and various decorative objects.

He Qing was sitting cross-legged on a futon, with smoke rising from a golden incense burner nearby.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

He Qing opened his eyes, and a maid in a blue gauze skirt walked in.

This maid has a beautiful face, and she is actually in the early stage of foundation building. This girl's name is Yan Qingzhu, and she is the youngest daughter of Yan Maode, the master of Shuijiao Sect.

This Yan Qingzhu is a top-grade water spirit root with a plump figure and a tall figure. At this time, she is specially serving as He Qing's maid.

"Sir, Xu Nan asked for a visit." Yan Qingzhu bowed and said, deliberately revealing a trace of tender white fur on his chest.

She quietly looked at He Qing, but found that his face was calm and had not changed at all, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Although Yan Qingzhu was specially appointed by Yan Maode to serve as a maid, it was not without his own wishes.

Otherwise, why would a female cultivator who still has room for advancement in the foundation-building period become a maid in the future?

That day, He Qing used his sword to kill ghost birds in the air. He was protected by divine thunder, and the power of the sky was like that of a thunder god.

How can such a graceful figure not make others intoxicated?

Since ancient times, heroes have loved beauties, but beauties don’t love heroes.

"Invite him in." He Qing said calmly.

He looked at Yan Qingzhu and was speechless.

If this woman seduces him like this again, it will really test his determination.

After all, He Qing was not a saint, and he and Zhou Yu were both separated from each other. They were both seekers of the truth, and there was too much work involved.

Although he has a close relationship with several other women and has a vague relationship that goes beyond friends, it is not so explicit.

This Yan Qingzhu planned to use her body to seduce her from the very beginning, and her purpose was too strong.

He Qing's thoughts changed and he thought about Xu Nan again.

Xu Nan's visit this time must be for the expansion of Haiyunfang City.

He Qing had previously thought about building a city near Haiyunguan. In addition, there were so many casual cultivators fleeing the city now that the daily residence was not enough, so he could only expand it.

After Yan Qingzhu obeyed the order, he walked out, then lifted up the front of his clothes, and then walked out with a high head.

"Brother Xu Dao, sir, please come in."

"Thank you so much, Fellow Taoist Yan."

Xu Nan's face looked older and she raised her hands.

Compared to him, Yan Qingzhu has a brighter future.

Just because she is Yan Maode's daughter, coupled with her high-grade water spiritual roots, there is no problem in achieving perfect foundation building in the future.

There is no shortage of resources and techniques, and everything can be said to be stable along the way.

If you are lucky enough to enter an adult's room, you won't dare to provoke him.

Xu Nan knew what he was doing and entered the room.

"Sir, the Haiyunfang City guard team has now expanded to include four foundation-building monks and eight hundred Qi-refining casual cultivators. In addition, the house is also being expanded.

Yunhunyu and Yan Maode both want to invest in it and buy shops and land."

During the war a few days ago, many monks in Haiyunfang City fled early.

But as time goes by, Haiyunfang City has now become the place with the most people nearby. After all, it is adjacent to Haiyun Temple, and with Haiyun Temple in front, it is very safe.

"Sir, this is the account book, which contains the rent and purchase price of the house respectively."

He Qing took it over and took a look and found that there were more than four thousand middle-grade spiritual stones.

This number is already quite large, but it is also because there are too many monks.

As long as you enter Haiyunfang City, you have to pay rent, so that you can enjoy safety.

In addition, rents in some places have also increased a lot.

If there are not enough spirit stones, there are other options, such as participating in the construction of the expansion of Haiyunfang City and joining the guard team.

If you have special skills, such as alchemists, weapon refiners, etc., you can also use your skills as collateral.

In addition, the sovereign party of Haiyunfang City is now He Qing.

In other words, all the land, plots, and shops inside nominally belong to him.

This is the benefit of choosing Haiyunfang City as a protected area in the first place.

All the immortal cultivating families in Haiyunfang City raised their hands to welcome him.

After all, this way they can keep some of their assets and prevent their lives from being harmed.

It's a very simple principle, use resources in exchange for protection.

In such a situation, He Qing is quickly building up power for himself and the team.

As time went by, He Qing also established a series of tools such as anti-corruption teams and government offices.

These things basically follow the previous system, coupled with the internal rules and regulations of He Qing's previous life in the company.

Although there must be some collusion, it doesn't matter to He Qing.

He even made Yun Hunyu and Yan Maode become dividend shareholders of Haiyunfang City.

In general, He Qing doesn't care about anything and only distributes profits, which seems to be of no use.

But in fact, he is the most indispensable person.

"You can find Yunhunyu and Yan Maode will handle it." He Qing waved his hand.

Xu Nan nodded.

"Also, you can just decide on your own if you have anything to do in the future."

For He Qing, all he needs to do is see the resources. If the resources are sufficient, then he will not be too troublesome.

If the resources are not what he wants and what results come out of his investigation, then the other party will undoubtedly have only one result, and that is death.

And managing these trivial matters does not require He Qing to deal with it.

Because he has a profound understanding that when the great power of the world of immortality belongs to himself, only his own higher cultivation level is the core.

And power is just a means to provide him with resources so that he can go further in his practice.

Everything must not be put before the horse.

As long as his cultivation level is high, resources can be obtained through various methods.

And for established profit recipients like Yunhunyu and Yan Maode, would they risk their lives to gain those benefits?

Even if one person goes to gamble, wouldn’t it be possible for both of them to gamble?

In addition, there are people from the Zixiao Sect such as Xu Nan, Rong Qi and others.

These people have different positions and it is difficult to mix them up.

And these days, a lot of resources have been flowing to He Qing.

Now He Qing takes countless elixirs and spiritual substances every day.

This kind of practice is really amazing.

Xu Nan left without saying anything about He Qing's handling of the matter.

He also knew better that for He Qing, as the core of their group, the most important thing was to improve his cultivation.
