Chapter 2 "Cultivation Financial Weekly"

The corner where Yang Lu is located is just around the edge of the coverage of the bar's constant temperature immortal array, but because of the blockage of the column, it can greatly avoid the bar staff's sight and prevent the staff from being bombarded.

It is precisely because the original owner of the body has worked here that he can find such a good place.

Smelling the scent of alcohol and food from the bar, Yang Lu's nose couldn't help but twitch a few times.

It’s a pity that he didn’t even have a penny of spirit stone coins in his pocket, so he could only stare at the room full of delicious food and wine, and then pray that this rash action would have an ideal result.

Just as Yang Lu was waiting for the target person to appear, he also secretly paid attention to the chat between bar customers.

As a fund manager, Yang Lu's biggest feature is that his ability to analyze information. It is precisely because of these gossips he heard by chance that Yang Lu can piece together the tip of the iceberg of this mysterious world of cultivation.

Unfortunately, there are no legendary cultivators among the drinkers in Haiyacheng Bar, but they are just mortals with some spare money. Yang Lu raised his ears and listened for a long time, but only heard some gossip news about family matters. Most of the original owners of the body also knew about these things, and they were all completely invalid information.

Just as Yang Lu was hiding in the corner of the porch, a stumbled short figure suddenly ran out in another alley opposite the bar. Because the streets of Haiyacheng were extremely deserted, he easily noticed the unexpected guest who suddenly appeared. Yang Lu looked closely and found that this was a girl who looked like a fifteen or sixteen years old.

This is a young girl who looks younger than Yang Lu. She is extremely thin and looks only over one meter-50. She looks quite sweet, with long black hair that is straight to the waist.

It’s a pity that she was wearing a huge worn faded cloth backpack across her thin shoulders. In addition, her clothes were quite old, and she looked like a female postman from the 1980s. This made her originally very lovely appearance more rustic and shabby out of thin air.

The girl stepped hard to wade through the snow, ran towards the direction of the bar, and shouted in a crisp voice while running: "The "Cultivation Finance Weekly" that has just been printed! Pan's Commercial Bank issued the latest issue of the "Cultivation Finance Weekly"! You only need 5 cents of spiritual stone coins to learn about the great things in the world of Jiuzhou!"

The appearance of this newspaper girl made Yang Lu's eyes lit up.

No matter which world you are in, the news media is always the best way to obtain intelligence.

Before the guests in the bar noticed the girl selling newspapers, he waved first and said, "The girl selling newspapers, what big thing happened in this issue of "Cultivation Finance Weekly"?"

Seeing that someone was interested in newspapers, the girl selling newspapers was overjoyed.

However, when she saw Yang Lu huddling in the corner of the tavern to keep warm, a look of suspicion suddenly appeared on her face.

The newspapers and magazines in the cultivation world are not like Earth newspapers, and are not distributed to ordinary people. Instead, they are some professional journals like Caixin, which are exclusive enjoyment for the middle class, rich people, and cultivators in the cultivation world of Jiuzhou.

The retail price of the 5-cent spiritual stone coins in "Cultivation Finance Weekly" is definitely not a small amount.

Under the monetary system that uses scarce physical assets as credit endorsement, the purchasing power of currency is extremely strong. Although the mainstream currency of the Jiuzhou Cultivation World is a credit currency, its credit still comes partially from the spirit stone.

When the Coca-Cola Company was established in 1886, the retail price of a single-can Coca-Cola was only 5 cents, which was an absolute luxury at that time. In Jules Verne's famous science fiction novel "80 Days Traveling the Earth", the protagonist, as the top rich man in the 19th century Britain (basically equivalent to the world), had only 40,000 pounds.

In the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm, most mortals can only use sub-tickets or sub-tickets to trade.

Currently, the official price of spirit stone coins and standard spirit stones is 10,000:1. Even if the black market exchange price is nearly 14,000:1, even if the ordinary mortal family in Haiyacheng is not able to easily bear the heavy expenses of newspapers.

The newspaper girl chose this tavern to promote newspapers because the tavern gathered a large number of middle-class customers in Haiyacheng, and most of the drinkers had enough potential purchasing power.

And this young man who looks like a poor man in front of him doesn't look like a person who can afford newspapers no matter how hard he looks.

Although the girl had already written the word suspicion on her face, fortunately, "Haiyacheng Yanglu" was once a serious worker, and her clothes looked decent, which made the newspaper girl slightly put away her contempt. If it weren't for this, she would have ignored Yanglu as air!

After hesitating for a moment, she leaned towards Yang Lu's location: "Sir... sir, do you want to buy a new version of "Cultivation Finance Weekly" that has just been printed? This is just printed half an hour ago!"

Yang Lu did not answer this question positively, but pointed to her large package and said, "This depends on whether there is any big news worth noting in this issue of the newspaper!"

Seeing Yang Lu secretly glance at his newspaper bag, the girl newspaper boy immediately covered the package tightly: "Don't peek! Is there any big news? Wouldn't you know if you buy a newspaper?"

Yang Lu looked at him without any embarrassment, but just smiled and said, "If there is not even some interesting news, then why should I buy newspapers? Whose money is not blown by a strong wind! Even if you don't say it, like the headline news of "Cultivation Finance Weekly", I can easily find out in this tavern!"

The newspaper girl obviously didn't know the glorious deeds of Yang Lu being bombed out of the tavern, and suddenly became a little hesitant.

Seeing that the other party was shaken, Yang Lu hit the railway while it was hot: "It's not that I said... If you want to sell more newspapers, it will definitely not work if you keep holding them like you! You must first throw out some exciting news to swell everyone's appetite. If you don't reveal any substantial content, how can others become interested in your newspaper? If you don't believe it, you can try it in my way."

The girl thought Yang Lu was right, so she answered honestly: "Okay, then I'll talk about it a little bit! A huge thing happened to the Wuliang Sword Sect recently! As we all know, the Pan Trading Company, the publisher of the "Cultivation Finance Weekly", has always had close ties with the Wuliang Sword Sect, and even has a top-secret source of information within the Wuliang Sword Sect. According to the information provided by a monk from the Wuliang Sword Sect who did not want to be named, Li Qingyang, the third president of the Spirit Stone Reserve Bank, may not have been too long!"

The girl's voice was not loud, but the drinkers near the bar could still hear it clearly. This heavy news was a shocking wave, and instantly attracted the attention of all drinkers.

"What did you say? President Li Qingyang has not had much time?"

"How could this be? President Li Qingyang is the greatest cultivation economist in Jiuzhou. If the Spirit Stone Reserve Bank does not have such a master in charge, the credit of the Spirit Stone Coin in the future will be worrying!"

"Have the Wuliang Sword Sect revealed the candidate for the next president?"

"Is the golden generation of cultivation economists who have fought with President Lu to conquer the world, has it come to an end?"

...

The light words of the newspaper girl directly triggered a big discussion within the entire tavern.

Even if Yang Lu came to the cultivation world for only one month, he knew that this was an extraordinary thing. Because of the great name of President Li Qingyang, he has been well known these days!

If there is a ranking of celebrities in the cultivation world of Jiuzhou, this President Li, who is in charge of the Spirit Stone Reserve Bank, can be at least in the top ten.

As we all know, the main circulating currency in the cultivation world today is the Lingshi Coin, which is a paper credit currency issued with the equity of the Spirit Stone Mineral Vein. It is also the core of the fourth generation of the Jiuzhou cultivation world. It is issued by the Wuliang Sword Sect Spirit Stone Reserve Bank.

Thousands of years ago, there were seven major sects in the Jiuzhou Cultivation World, and they were called the "Seven Major Sects of Jiuzhou".

However, as the overlord of Zhongzhou Wuliang Sword Sect planned to establish the Spirit Stone Reserve Bank and controlled the financial lifeline of the entire cultivation world, Wuliang Sword Sect gradually stood out from the seven major sects of Jiuzhou and became the world's largest sect recognized by the cultivation world.

When talking about the birth of the Spirit Stone Reserve Bank, we have to mention the three most important [Ling Stone Financial Crisis] in the history of the cultivation world.
