Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 96: Economic plunder
Tang Jie killed Yuan Tianzhong with just one sentence.
Although the Yanyang Formation was criticized by Tang Jie as being simple and crude, the fact is that this formation is spread all over the mountain and its power affects the entire world. It can be regarded as the largest formation built by concentrating all the resources of the Yanyang World. array, the resources it consumes are calculated in massive amounts.
In order to fight against the invasion of the underworld, the major sects have almost exhausted all their resources to make arrangements. Otherwise, it would be impossible to resist the invasion of the ghost mist of the underworld.
To build a large formation that can disperse the ghost mist of the underworld into the endless void, its consumption will not be much less than that of the Yanyang formation, or even more. In this case, it is almost impossible to build a drainage array.
"You can't set up a large formation, but you can still set up a small formation." Someone said.
"It's just a drop in the bucket, it's of no use."
"Even if it works, it won't work. If scattered small formations are used to assist the diversion, they can only be built scattered everywhere. Those ghost generals are not vegetarians, there are also cunning people among them, and they will definitely destroy the magic circle."
"Exactly, unless it is fully laid out like the Yanyang Formation, it will just be a waste of resources."
"Is there nothing we can do?"
"I'm afraid there is no solution."
Everyone was talking about it, and some even shook their heads and sighed. Some people even complained about Elder Na Yi coming because of this. If he hadn't been in charge of setting up the Yanyang Formation, there might still be resources left to arrange the drainage formation to divert the ghost mist. As for Elder Yi's hard work and the important role played by the Yanyang Formation during this period, they automatically ignored it. Fortunately, there are not many such people after all, but their existence is really annoying.
Yuantian coughed a few times and signaled everyone to be quiet: "In this case, I wonder what Mr. Tang can do?"
After thinking about it, Tang Jie replied: "There is no way to do it. It has to be divided into several steps. First, I will strengthen the power of the Yanyang Formation. No matter what, it is better to increase the power by 30% than not to increase it and delay it for a while. Time is always good. The second is to set up a teleportation array leading to Qixia. Although Yanyang Realm currently does not have the resources to deploy a large diversion array, Qixia Realm still has it. Even if it can provide a part, it will be of great benefit to Yanyang Realm. Support."
Everyone was delighted.
This is indeed a method. The teleportation array is different from the Yanyang Grand Drainage Array. The Drainage Array requires power to spread throughout the world, and what is needed is quantity. What the teleportation array requires is quality, mainly some extremely rare and special resources. The two resource requirements are not very overlapping, so it is not possible to build a large drainage array, but the teleportation array can still be built. And if it is just to transmit resources, the requirements for the magic circle are even lower, and basically the lowest level teleportation array can do it.
"Of course, these resources must be paid back, and I'm afraid some interest will be added, otherwise I won't be able to speak to the elders of the sect." Tang Jie said with a smile.
He is now the real person of Linghuan, so it is natural for him to say this, so everyone said in unison: "It doesn't matter, the interest is of course required."
If we knew that he had a clone of the Immortal Power, we would probably all call Tang Jie shameless. With your status, how dare you say that you can't speak?
However, for everyone, borrowing and repaying is a reassuring thing. If the other party is too generous, then everyone has to worry about the other party's conspiracy.
Based on the current situation, the teleportation array will definitely be deployed, and Tang Jie also promised that the level of the teleportation array will not be too high, and his performance is considered sincere. The invasion of Qixia Realm may not be big, so everyone can feel more relieved. Immediately, he and Tang Jie discussed the prices and interest rates of various resources.
Tang Jie indeed has no intention of invading the Yanyang Realm. Qixia has not completely annexed the Blood River yet, and he is a little busy. Secondly, this place is too far away from Qixia Realm. It is too unrealistic to complete the invasion with just one teleportation array. Even if they move across the border, I don’t know how many years it will take. As for invasion purely by high-level force, resources cannot be effectively utilized, and there is little point in defeating them.
But not using force to invade does not mean there will be no invasion.
The rich knowledge in his previous life made Tang Jie's vision much higher than those of these great powers. Not using force to invade did not mean that he could not invade in other ways. Economic plunder is a kind of - with the help of this war, the Yanyang Realm is burdened with huge debts and high interest rates. In the end, it has to sell a large amount of cheap resources in the realm to repay the debt. This is a common phenomenon in modern wars. Predatory situation.
But this common situation is definitely not common in the Star Luo Universe. It can even be said to be unique.
Those elders and masters, even though they have practiced for thousands of years and have a good understanding of the principles of how everything in the world works, they are destined to be unable to understand such things that they have never been exposed to before. This is exactly what I said before, it has nothing to do with wisdom, but only with knowledge.
Without that insight, no matter how high your wisdom is, it is useless.
For this reason, no one among the big guys in the Yanyang Realm could see through Tang Jie's conspiracy. The strong pressure from the invasion of the underworld and their lack of understanding of the Qixia Realm made them even less confident to negotiate with Tang Jie.
In this case, Tang Jie's quotation for resources was simply as much as he wanted.
Tang Jie dared to ask for a piece of spiritual jade for a plant of phantom spirit grass that sold for fifteen spiritual coins in Qixia Realm; Tang Jie dared to sell a ton of purple sand for three hundred spiritual coins for thirty spiritual coins. Ke, do you want love? For resources that Yan Yang Realm does not have, Tang Jie basically sells them by a hundred. Even with the resources that Yanyang Realm has, Tang Jie still needs fifteen or twenty times. Who told you that you don't have enough resources now? Don't blame me for selling it at a high price. We don't have a lot of this stuff there. Anyway, the big guys in Yanyang Realm don't know what's going on in Qixia Realm. Tang Jie can do whatever he says, and everyone can only listen. Even if you guess that Tang Jie means to raise the price - please, if you don't benefit others, who will help you?
At the moment of life and death, it’s hard for everyone to care about anything.
In addition to controlling pricing, Tang Jie also controls usage.
Previous demonstrations have proven Tang Jie's formation ability. If a large drainage formation is to be deployed later, Tang Jie will naturally take action. So of course Tang Jie has the final say on how many resources are needed. Since the power is to spread throughout the world, the more resources the formation requires, the better. Those spiritual plants and herbs that were sold on the basis of trees, were all purchased in tons with a wave of Tang Jie's hand. Regardless of whether it is used or not, place the order first - from Tang Jie, everyone has learned the word order.
In addition, the cultivators who came to help in the battle also asked for a price. Tianxin has the same price, and Zifu has the same price. Anyway, there are hiring prices according to different levels. In this regard, Tang Jie did not ask for a high price, but requested that this part should not be in arrears and should be paid in cash. This is because the labor prices are almost the same, and there is not much room for asking for high prices. Asking for too much will only give people the feeling that you are so stupid... Although some people already feel this way. Secondly, it also shows that he has made concessions. The price of resources is high, and the labor cost is cheaper... Anyway, the labor cost is not for Tang Jie himself.
What’s interesting is that from the perspective of Yanyang Realm, they also hope to pay for labor costs. Because in this way, when the overall situation is gradually settled and there are too many cultivators sent by Qixia Realm, they can refuse the entry of Qixia Realm on the excuse that they do not have enough money - at this time, what they are worried about is the armed invasion of Qixia Realm.
After such a purchase, the final price will naturally be sky-high.
Of course, in order to avoid irritating everyone too much, Tang Jie adopted the method of purchasing in batches. Later demand can wait until half of the construction is completed before increasing. It’s already halfway built anyway, so you can’t let it go. This is also a common modern technique, but it is also unique in the Xingluo Universe.
Even so, the high price demanded in advance still frightened all the big guys in Yanyang Realm. The drainage formation was originally the standard for the material resources of the Poor Yanyang world, but Tang Jie increased it dozens of times, and even the upfront cost made everyone dizzy.
No money? It doesn't matter, you can owe it first and just add interest.
The monthly interest rate is three cents.
From the perspective of loan sharking, a monthly interest rate of three cents is not considered high among loan sharks. The interest rate of modern loan sharks is generally a monthly interest rate of ten cents, which means a monthly repayment of ten percent. There are also nine departures and thirteen returns in the Xingluo Daqian Realm, which is equivalent to approximately 13% of compound interest monthly.
So the monthly interest rate of three points is indeed not high.
But once you zoom in, everything changes.
One person can create a hundred times a thousand times the previous industry in one year, but a country that can grow by 10% is a miracle.
The three-cent monthly interest rate is extremely terrifying compared to the huge amount of money owed by Yanyang Realm.
That is enough debt to bring down a world!
Unfortunately, few of the big guys in Yanyang Realm are good at math. Even if they can calculate how much they have to repay each month, they don't understand what it means. Because they need to first understand the repayment ability of the industry and the impact on the industry after deducting this huge amount of debt.
But the powerful people still know nothing about this kind of self-understanding of the internal economy. Those cultivators within the sect who specialize in this part may know something about it, but unfortunately they are not qualified to participate in such high-level meetings due to insufficient cultivation.
Tang Jie set the sales price extremely high, and set the labor price and monthly interest rate extremely low. This gave the cultivators the impression that Qixia Realm wanted to take this opportunity to sell resources and gain a profit. Although the price is much higher, the interest is not bad after all, and it gives everyone the opportunity to repay, so it is much easier to accept psychologically.
If a person is mentally prepared to be slaughtered~IndoMTL.com~ coupled with the lack of sufficient economic acumen, it is not surprising that he will be slaughtered with blood.
So after some bargaining and Tang Jie made some concessions, the matter was decided happily.
Of course, there is one more thing to do before completing the resource transaction, and that is the deployment of the teleportation array.
This aspect is not too difficult, because the four major factions basically represent the ultimate power of the Yanyang Realm. At this moment, no one will be stingy as long as it is what they have. If it doesn't exist, I will personally send someone to look for it wherever I can find it. It doesn't matter how difficult and dangerous the place is, the powerful officials of the Zifu from various major sects personally go out to collect the resources Tang Jie needs.
For this reason, Yuan Tianzhong even personally entered the occupied area of the underworld, entering and exiting three times to obtain three rare resources for Tang Jie. The last time, he was besieged by eighteen elite high-level ghost kings, and he suddenly came from the endless Fight a **** path through the sea of ghosts.
In this case, on the eighteenth day after Tang Jie came to the Great Sun Sect, all the information for setting up the teleportation array was finally gathered. Mobile users please visit
