……

At the same time.

The head of the Shangguan clan, Shangguan Zhenhai, the eldest elder Shangguan Liyan, and the great genius Shangguan Yunque were all in great shock.

Ning Wang, the head of the small sixth-grade family, actually produced two great geniuses in a row.

Although Wang Zongan is only at the third level of the Heavenly Realm at the age of sixty-five, which is much weaker than his sister, it still depends on who he compares with...

I think that when Shangguan Yunque was sixty-five years old, his cultivation level was nothing more than this. How strong can the young prince Wu Zhixing be at the age of sixty-five?

Everyone in the Shangguan family looked at Wang Zongan in a different way. Their attention to the Wang family in Changning, who was far away in Longzuo County, instantly increased by several levels.

The family produced two great geniuses at the same time, one took the path of the Academy and the Holy Land, and the other took the path of the town clan. This will definitely make the Wang family rise rapidly and become powerful in a short period of time. As long as they survive for about five hundred years, the two great geniuses will both be able to advance to the magical realm.

With Wang Shouzhe's ability to make money, raising a great talent will probably not be a big problem.

By then, the Wang family of Changning would be so arrogant that they would directly join the ranks of upper-third-rank families.

Even if the Shangguan clan has been promoted to the third rank by then, the Wang Academy family's dual magical powers, even though Wang Liyao is in the academy and has many restrictions, is still much better than the Shangguan clan.

Besides, Li Yao's great genius has an extraordinary bloodline, so he might be able to win the position of Holy Son.

If she really becomes the Lord of the Holy Land in the future... then the Wang family will soar to the sky and become out of control, becoming the top family that can compete with the second-grade family Anguo Gongfu. (PS: There is a BUG in the front. The Duke of Anguo is the Zhao family, and the Chen family is the third grade.)

With such a huge potential, which family would dare to underestimate it?

Silence.

After being silent for dozens of breaths, everyone in the Shangguan family gradually recovered from the extreme shock and barely calmed down.

"Young Patriarch Zong An has unlimited potential, which makes me, an old man, envious." Shangguan Liyan, the elder with white hair and beard, lamented, "Everyone in the world knows that there is only one bloodline difference between the genius and the genius, and you can catch up with you if you work hard. But. To put it this way, there is still some market before Zifu. Only when you reach the Zifu realm will you find that the gap between the two is like a natural chasm."

"Every step forward for me and other geniuses in the Purple Mansion Realm is like moving mountains to fill the sea, with many difficulties. Let alone clearing the road to the Purple Mansion and taking a look at the magical avenue, then The difficulty is comparable to climbing to the sky."

It’s no wonder that Shangguan Liyan lamented. The most powerful thing about Tianjiao is that for them, reaching the Purple Mansion Realm is just the beginning, and they can climb step by step on the road to magical powers that Tianjiao can only look up to their whole life.

It’s not that Tianjiao can’t practice when he reaches the Purple Mansion Realm. Some geniuses who have very high bloodlines and have reached the first level of the top grade have some hope of advancing to the magical realm.

But everything is inseparable from resources, and resources have always been limited. All aristocratic families will budget carefully, use them wisely, and pay great attention to cost-effectiveness.

Instead of spending a lot of money to let an ancestor of the Zifu who has exhausted his potential quickly walk a few floors in the Zifu realm. It is better to save it to train the juniors, create a few more heavenly and human realms, and even use them for the replacement of the purple mansion.

After all, the maximum lifespan of the Zifu realm is only eight hundred years, and there is basically no hope of magical power. Spending resources randomly is simply a waste of money. No head of the family would dare to act so recklessly, as it would arouse the anger of the clan.

"Senior, you are so complimentary." After Wang Zongan showed off his strength, he put away his power and returned to his original humility, "It is a fluke that Zongan became a great genius. I went to Longzuo Zi How could I have expected that even though the Fuxue Palace was gilded, I would be favored by Senior Immortal Tree and be rewarded with both the essence of Yimu and the spiritual seed of the Immortal Tree?"

This is so heartbreaking~

Disregarding Shangguan Yunque, who was also very lucky, both Shangguan Zhenhai and Shangguan Liyan felt heartbroken and found it difficult to breathe. Why don't they have such luck that Senior Changshengshu values ​​them?

They have all heard of the longevity tree in Longzuo Academy, and it is said that it is now at the peak of the eighth level. Maybe one day, Senior Changshengshu will survive the catastrophe of transformation and become the ninth-level demon king.

By then, wouldn’t it mean that the Changning Wang family’s backstage would have another one? The ninth-level demon king is equivalent to a human being in the supernatural realm. Unlike Master Tianhe who only has a few hundred years to live, the Immortal Tree is a famous species of immortality, and its lifespan is longer than that of tortoise-like spiritual beasts.

As long as the young clan leader Zong An survives, or the sapling of immortality remains in the Wang family, this friendship will continue.

"Young Patriarch Zong'an, you just said you would bring us to make a fortune together? Can you tell us in detail." Shangguan Zhenhai changed the subject awkwardly but politely.

He could no longer continue the previous topic, he was already feeling deeply frustrated.

"Please take a look at our Anbeiwei plan." Wang Zongan took out a set of Tianji photo disks and inspired the images in them. "This is our experimental farm, planting high-yield pearl rice and Zi However, the vast green grasslands around us are all alfalfa."

"As a high-yield coarse grain, pearl rice is extremely durable. It can be used as refined grain for high-quality war horses, carriage draft horses, working cattle, etc. It can also be used as war preparation and disaster relief materials. Ordinary people can also use pearl rice as a It can be used as food supplement and has wonderful effects such as improving defecation."

"Anbeiwei has abundant sunshine, as long as irrigation can be maintained. It can produce two seasons of pearl rice every year, with excellent quality and extremely low price. Under intensive farming, the annual output per mu can reach 25 quintals, and each quintal sells for 3 A large amount of copper, the annual output per mu can reach 75 tons of copper, plus interplanted cumin spices, straw can be used as silage feed, etc., the annual gross income per mu will reach one dry gold and twenty coppers."

"Anbeiwei has a vast territory, with an area equivalent to five or six times the size of ordinary Wei. Its biggest feature is that there are no hills, no lakes, and no forests. It can maximize the use of land and adopt large-scale farming, irrigation, and harvesting. Reduce costs."

“In Anbeiwei alone, the amount of pearl rice farmland that can be developed is estimated to reach 12 million acres, and the total annual economic value reaches approximately 15 million dry gold.”

Everyone in the Shangguan clan heard this and their breathing became rapid.

Fifteen million dry gold per year! This is such a terrifying number. One hundred years is a total output value of 1.5 billion.

But everyone knows that this is gross income, and taxes and various costs have to be deducted. But even so, they were still shocked. Who would have thought that Anbeiwei, which everyone was not optimistic about before, would have such high economic value?

"Animal husbandry is also a major feature of Anbeiwei. Cheap silage feed and pearl rice grains can feed a large number of beef cattle, horses, etc., and the market competitiveness is very high. Please pay attention This table shows the ratio of the cost of raising a beef cow to the selling price, and the gross profit reaches a full three gold coins."

"We in Anbeiwei are planning to build several large livestock farms in the future. It is expected that we can breed two million high-quality beef cattle and two million dairy cows. We will discuss the dairy cow plan later. The high-quality beef cattle alone are six to seven million gross profit."

Beef cattle are large-scale and have high yields.

In relatively wealthy countries on earth, the average annual meat consumption per capita is no more than fifty to one hundred kilograms. But this is the Xuanwu world. Xuanwu monks have a huge need to eat meat to replenish their Qi and blood. Even monks in the Lingtai realm, the Tianren realm, and even the Zifu realm cannot eat a large amount of spiritual meat of all levels every day. That consumes too much. You have to pair it with some ordinary meat to replenish your energy and blood.

Moreover, the largest number of monks in the world are actually low-level monks, and their consumption of ordinary meat is still very large.

"Everyone, let's try our Jade Crystal wine again. This wine has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin." Wang Zongan took out a beautiful glass bottle of wine and a full set of exquisite glass glasses and wineware, and poured it for everyone. Had a glass of wine.

The scarlet wine exudes fragrance and complements the transparent glass cup.

When everyone tasted it, it was indeed sweet and delicious, with a long aftertaste. It was indeed a fine wine.

"Anbeiwei has abundant sunshine, and the jade crystal grapes produced are sweet and rich, and the wine produced is also top-grade. Although it is not as good as the spirit wine, the price of this bottle of twenty or thirty coppers is not excessive, right? Based on our understanding of The planning of Anbeiwei's Yujing Grape Base and winery, with an annual output of tens of millions of bottles, is just the beginning. Once successfully promoted, it will definitely be a huge profit project."

In the Tianji photo album, young and beautiful girls are either brewing jade crystal wine or bottling wine. The factory area is clean and hygienic and highly enjoyable to watch.

A set of business planning blueprints, rendered by Wang Zongan, were laid out in everyone's minds, clearly showing the huge profits in the future.

Not to mention that everyone in the Shangguan family was dazzled by the future full of gold, even Prince An, who had not heard it for the first time, was still excited to hear it, and he had a feeling that I, Prince An It is also the "heroic delusion" of a rich man.

"Young Patriarch Zong'an, he said before that he would help us make a fortune..." Shangguan Zhenhai can be considered a well-informed and experienced patriarch, but now he couldn't help but swallow his saliva and was tempted, "Could it be, it's Are you going to share the interests of Anbeiwei with us? If we can share enough, we are willing to take the risk and support Prince An."

Wang Zongan was right when he said it before, the Shangguan family was too short of money.

Prince Kang has many supporters. With the Shangguan clan's current situation, even if they can join Prince Kang, the benefits they can get are limited.

On the contrary, if they can get a share of the interests in Anbei Guard, what does the Shangguan family have to fear?

What's more, Prince An actually played such a huge game of chess without saying a word. Not only did he get the support of two great talents from the Changning Wang family, but he also gave An Beiwei, who was disliked by everyone, to Take stock... you may not have no chance of winning in the future.

"Senior is joking, Anbeiwei is the foundation of His Highness. He has put all his hard work into it for many years, how can he give it up casually?" Wang Zongan chuckled lightly, "That is, we, the Wang family, strongly support it. Only through the development of Anbeiwei can we get a share of the pie."

Shangguan Zhenhai was so angry that he was so angry.

Although he also understands the principle of no reward for no merit, you, Wang Zongan, spoke so well of An Beiwei's prospects and whetted their appetites, but at the end of the day, you said it was not your fault. .

I don’t want you to be such a bully.

"Is Young Patriarch Zong'an here to entertain our Shangguan family?" Shangguan Zhenhai said angrily, "If you came with the purpose of enmity, congratulations, you have achieved your goal."

"Senior, don't worry, just because Anbeiwei's interests are not shared, it does not mean that there are no other interests." Wang Zongan didn't care at all about Shangguan Zhenhai's anger, and calmly adjusted the Tianji photo disk, "Just Anbeiwei, For the entire northwest region, it is just a small corner. Just take a look~"

The picture of the activation of the Tianji Photo Disk shows an aerial view of the entire Dala Desert. Anbeiwei, which was already very vast, only occupies a small, very inconspicuous corner of it.

"The Dala Desert is vast and vast. Its scale is about the size of three counties. Once such a huge no-man's land is successfully developed, it will generate astronomical economic benefits, let alone cultivate a magical power. Once the state is reached, it will be ten or eight, all with ease."

Wang Zongan's appearance is excellent, and coupled with his confident appearance, he is really an excellent lobbyist.

Shangguan Zhenhai was fooled into a daze: "Zong An, this huge desert is huge, but how difficult is it to conquer it? The biggest problem is the lack of water, right?"

"Senior Zhenhai, there is no need to worry. We have already planned a huge canal, which can solve both the water source problem and the transportation problem. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone." Wang Zongan took out another conceptual plan, which was A majestic canal runs from the West Sea all the way to Anbeiwei, with a branch in the middle that reaches beyond the 36th Weiwei of Guilong City.

Shangguan Zhenhai was so shocked that he couldn't help but nodded and said: "You are really brave."

Suddenly, he frowned again: "But how come this plan sounds so familiar? By the way, Prince An seems to have mentioned this plan in the court and was ridiculed in public!"

As he spoke, he looked at Prince An who looked embarrassed.

"Scorn is just the willful talk of a group of ignorant people. If everyone can see the huge benefits, how can it be the turn of Prince An and us?" Wang Zongan sneered, "Less than a hundred years later, one of them will I have to regret my arrogant words back then."

Shangguan Zhenhai and others were also shocked by the benefits of Anbeiwei planned by Wang Zongan before. If the Dala Desert can really be conquered, the benefits will indeed be huge.

It’s just that the Grand Canal...

"For the Grand Canal, we plan to mobilize millions of civilians and separate thousands of sections for construction at the same time." Wang Zongan said, "In addition, we will recruit casual cultivators, hire a large number of Xuanwu monks, and recruit refiners The puppets and others are working together to construct this epic and huge project within fifty years."

"At the same time, we will take the lead in afforestation in the Dala Desert, gradually enclose the land, and take the lead in improving the sandy soil with drought-tolerant alfalfa. It is estimated that in a hundred years, one-twentieth of it will be initially conquered The vast desert will be turned into an oasis within five hundred years. The rich grain-producing land of Tianshu County in Daqian will generate massive economic benefits every year."

Shangguan Zhenhai and others’ eyes widened.

Five hundred years sounds like a long time, but in fact it is less than half the lifespan of a person in the magical power realm. Moreover, there are not a few aristocratic families in this world that have lasted for more than a thousand years. If nothing else, the Shangguan family alone has thousands of people. Year.

Any family that can last for thousands of years cannot only focus on this area. Maybe Shangguan Zhenhai may not be able to see the final outcome, but their descendants of the Shangguan family can.

What's more, five hundred years later, it will be almost the time when Shangguan Yunque attacks the magical realm.

"Zong An, you said you would make us rich. So what should we do to get a share of the pie." Shangguan Zhenhai tried his hand.

"Your Shangguan family will spend 500,000 dry gold every year, and a total of 100 million dry gold will be needed for two hundred years. In addition, we will provide no less than a thousand Qi Refining Realm monks, a hundred Lingtai Realm monks, and ten Lingtai Realm monks each year. In the Mingtianren Realm, a monk in the Purple Mansion Realm will be dispatched by the [Dala Reclamation Joint Department] for a period of not less than five hundred years." Wang Zongan threw out the plan that had been prepared for a long time, "All the total investment , total income, total expenses, etc., taxes, etc., are all processed through the [Dalaca Redevelopment Joint Department]. The actual controller of the Union Department is His Royal Highness Prince An. All future dividends will also be settled and distributed by the Union Department."

One hundred million dry gold?

When Shangguan Zhenhai heard this number, his heart trembled, but fortunately it could be divided into two hundred years, so the pressure would be slightly less.

As for so many monks, it is not a small burden for the Shangguan family. The Shangguan family has a big business, and there are many places where manpower is needed.

But the temptation given by Wang Zongan was too great. As long as you get through the initial difficulties, the subsequent benefits will be immeasurable. From this, he was still very excited. If it didn't work out, he could still mortgage and sell off some properties.

"How many percent of the shares did we finally get after paying such a huge price?" Shangguan Zhenhai said excitedly.

"How much?" Wang Zongan laughed, "Senior Zhenhai is really good at telling jokes. That is the income of several counties. Does your family want to be rich and powerful in the future? Because you are the first family we are talking about, okay? I’ll give you some discounts, including 3% of the shares and dividends. If the [Dala Redevelopment Joint Division] doesn’t fail, you Shangguan family will enjoy this right forever.”

"Three percent?" Shangguan Zhenhai jumped to his feet with a change of expression, "We have paid such a huge price, and we can only get three percent?"

"Senior Zhenhai, please don't get angry. Please take a look at this table of expected investment amount and future income curve." Wang Zongan calmly took out a table and asked Shangguan to study it slowly, and then said goodbye, "Everyone , the conditions we have given are already very favorable, don’t miss such a God-given opportunity. Zong An and others resigned first."

Wang Zongan knows that this kind of thing cannot be decided in one day. As long as a family's affairs involve so much investment in manpower and material resources, they always need to be discussed internally, so he is not in a hurry.

Shangguan Zhenhai took the income curve forecast table and said in slight shock: "Young Clan Chief Zong'an and His Highness the Prince, are you going to leave without having a feast?"

"Everyone is very busy. Let's eat later when we have time." Wang Zongan stood up with a smile and handed over his hands, "His Royal Highness and I still have many homes to visit."

Indeed, this is not the Shangguan family in Shangjing City...

"There is another question. If our Shangguan family agrees to participate in this project, do we need to clearly stand up and express our support for His Royal Highness Prince Anjun?"

"Senior Zhenhai is overly worried. This is just a joint development project. Whether you support Prince An or Prince Kang, it will not affect the follow-up. To be honest, this project is too expensive, even if Prince Dexin In the same lineage, even His Royal Highness King Kangjun, we want to get involved. There is strength in numbers."

"Okay, okay, that's the case, there is hope for cooperation."

While talking, Wang Zongan and Prince An formally said goodbye.

Afterwards, they visited one house after another in a serious manner.

Sure enough, all the **** they boasted about will come true. They actually went to the palaces of Prince Dexin and Prince Yong'an to lobby for investment, although they were "politely invited out" soon after.

But from this point alone, it can be seen that the combination of Prince An and Wang Zongan is serious. In this way, those who are interested will strengthen their faith.

……

Time flies by.

Another month later.

The middle section of Anjiang, Jiaolong Island.

As the base of the Jiaolong Gang, this island is shrouded in water vapor and mist all year round, and is guarded by a large formation, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. In the port of Jiaolong Island, a large number of large river ships are docked all year round. If viewed from the sky, the scene is extremely spectacular.

There are several peaks on the island, and the top of the tallest one was bulldozed to create a complex of buildings, which is where everyone in the Jiaolong Gang lives.

Among this group of buildings, there is a grand hall with a rough style and extraordinary momentum called "Jiaolong Hall".

This Jiaolong Palace is where the Jiaolong Gang discusses matters and is also the center of power of the Jiaolong Gang.

Inside the Dragon Palace.

On the large main seat, Long Wuji, who had always been carefree and unrestrained, turned pale, and there was a pile of torn letters on the ground.

His few confidants, Zhao Wuqing and others stood aside tremblingly, with their heads lowered and not daring to say a word.

Ever since the head of the family learned that Wang Shouzhe had taken refuge with Prince An, his temper had become irritable and unstable.

His correspondence with Shangjingcheng became more and more frequent, and every time he received a letter, he would feel very bad.

"Shou Zhe, you are really going further and further on the road of betrayal." Long Wuji squeezed the armrest with his broad palms, and a certain green light flashed in his deep eyes, "What exactly is that boy Wu Mingyuan?" What’s so good about it? For you to spare no effort to help him.”

"Wouldn't it be better for everyone to be brothers happily together?"

"No, we can't let Wang Shouzhe continue to make mistakes. The only way to get to the bottom is to turn around." Long Wuji narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "Come here, the whole army sets off, the target is Chang Ning Wei. ”

Zhao Wuqing shuddered and hurriedly whispered: "Father, there are still about forty days before the 'fifty-year agreement', so please bear with it."

"Endure? If you continue to endure it, Wang Shouzhe will sink deeper and deeper. There is no way back." Long Wuji was so angry that his eyes began to turn red. "The army will be dispatched to me now. The whole army will be pressed to the Changning Guard." Outside, stay stationed there. When the agreed date arrives, immediately send troops to safely suppress the town."

"I, Long Wuji, have to ask him personally why he betrayed me?"

……
