Chapter 90 Planning and Construction
There is no point in lingering. If it weren't for the pressure of life, who would be willing to leave their hometown?
Sun Zecheng fell into deep thought. Lei Wanhe and Nie Ying were also thinking hard, and the whole hall fell into silence.

As a time traveler, Sun Zecheng knew that Patriarch Linghu's judgment was correct. The Seven Sects of Yue Kingdom, or to be more precise, six sects plus a traitor, could not defeat the Six Sects of Demonic Path. Therefore, it was inevitable that Huangfeng Valley would eventually move to Beiliang Kingdom. It was really not easy for the top backbones left behind by Huangfeng Valley to support a sect with tens of thousands of cultivators struggling to survive in a desolate and poor place like Beiliang Kingdom.

Just walk away like Han Li did?
Sun Zecheng could do it himself, but now he has Nie Ying.

Will Nie Ying abandon Huangfeng Valley and leave?
Based on Sun Zecheng's understanding of Nie Ying, she would be in a difficult situation. In the original novel, whether Nie Ying saved the Murong brothers, blamed Han Li, or asked Han Li whether he would return to Huangfeng Valley, it was all based on the interests of Huangfeng Valley.

As stunning beauties, Zi Ling had been with several powerful men. The Yuan Yao sisters even tried hard to get close to someone as ugly as Qu Hun, while Mei Ning wanted to be Han Li's concubine.

But Nie Ying is different.

When Nie Ying met Han Li in the Nascent Soul stage, she asked Han Li if he was willing to return to Huangfeng Valley, instead of asking if she could follow Senior Han! It can be seen that Nie Ying was only trying to win over her former fellow disciples for the sect. When Han Li was unwilling to come back, Nie Ying never had the slightest idea of ​​abandoning Huangfeng Valley and trying to get close to Han Li.

Yes, from the beginning to the end, Nie Ying's loyalty to Huangfeng Valley has never changed.

Therefore, Sun Zecheng understood that when Huangfeng Valley was in trouble, even if he could force Nie Ying to go with him, she must be full of guilt and unhappiness in her heart.

Besides, Huangfeng Valley was the first immortal cultivation sect that Sun Zecheng entered the mortal world. He got his first huge sum of 3,000 spirit stones here, and then used the 3,000 to buy equipment and rob Han Li to start his career. Huangfeng Valley also gave him the opportunity to enter the Blood Forbidden Land. The technique he was practicing now came from his master Li Huayuan, who was also from Huangfeng Valley. What's more, if he didn't enter Huangfeng Valley, he wouldn't have the chance to meet Nie Ying.

Well, out of both moral and legal considerations, and for both public and private reasons, Chengdu should do its best for Huangfeng Valley.

However, how can we help Huangfeng Valley better overcome the predicament of lack of source of spirit stones after relocation?

At present, the spiritual medicine garden in Yuanjialing does not even have spiritual medicine that is 50 years old, and due to the limitation of spiritual veins, the area is very small. Besides, if we plant it now, we will have to wait for hundreds of years before we can harvest it, which is too slow.

Raising spirit beasts, forget it, it's also a big investment, the effect is slow, and it's not as professional as the spirit beast Yuling Sect. The spirit beasts raised by the Qilin Hall of Huangfeng Valley are just small-scale operations, and it's hard to say whether it's profitable or not. Don't count on it.

Refining weapons? At present, Yuanjiazhuang, which is under the control of the government, does not even have the ground fire. The largest number of Qi Refining disciples cannot use it. It is not possible for tens of thousands of people to eat without working.

Make bricks without straw!

Sun Zecheng was just lamenting that he had no rice to cook when he suddenly remembered his catchphrase when he first came into this world:
If you have nothing, of course you can do a business with no capital, such as robbery!
It is impossible to rely on production. There is no spiritual ore or underground fire. Planting is too slow and it takes hundreds of years. The cost-effectiveness is extremely low. The only way to maintain life is to rob.

However, production is not the main focus. In order to support robbery, it is necessary to set up a large market. Purchasing the necessary materials for robbery and cashing in the proceeds from robbery requires a large market. Besides, the market is also a source of income.

So let's plan a large market town first. Yuanjialing is right on the main road from the capital of Beiliang to the capital of Yeyu, which is a good location to build a market town.

The Yuan family cannot afford to run a market because they have no goods to sell and do not have the strength to guarantee the safety of the big market. This problem does not exist for Huangfeng Valley.

Sun Zecheng had already made up his mind, so he reported to Elder Lei: "Since there are no resources, let's just not make a production plan. We can keep the original medicine garden, add a market, and reserve a few mountains for the elders who have their own spiritual eyes."

"In addition, Yuanjiazhuang was expanded, and a large number of houses for cultivators were built. The spiritual energy was then distributed using formations to ensure that low-level disciples' residences had spiritual energy for cultivation, and that the spiritual energy in houses of the same level was basically the same."

Sun Zecheng also proposed:

The construction of the residential houses and the market was contracted out to the Yuan family. It wouldn't cost much spirit stones anyway, and the Huangfeng Valley was well-off now, so there was no need to transfer people from the Huangfeng Valley on a large scale so early. Of course, the mountain protection formation, the spirit gathering formation that gathered spirit energy for centralized distribution, and key places such as the Sutra Library and the warehouse must be built and arranged by Huangfeng Valley's own people.

Lei Wanhe agreed on the spot and gave Sun Zecheng 300 mid-level yuan according to the market price, letting Sun Zecheng and Nie Ying take charge. He then returned to Huangfeng Valley to report to Linghu Grand Elder.

Sun Zecheng called the head of the Yuan family and learned that the expansion of the monks' residential quarters was entirely subcontracted to the Yuan family. The head of the Yuan family, who had lost the income from the medicine garden and didn't know where to find spirit stones, was extremely grateful to Sun Zecheng. He quoted a very low price for the work, a total of 180 mid-level yuan. However, even with this price, the income of their Yuan family increased several times in the next two years.

Sun Zecheng made the decision on the spot, agreed on the price, and brought a contract, indicating that the total price was 300 mid-level yuan, and asked the head of the Yuan family to sign and put his fingerprints. The head of the Yuan family signed and put his fingerprints without saying a word, and kept thanking Sun Daoyou for his care. Nie Ying, who had been standing next to Sun Zecheng, was stunned.

He counted out sixty intermediate-level coins and gave them to the head of the Yuan family, drove him away, and told him to start working that same day.

After the ban was lifted, it was finally quiet, with only Sun Zecheng and Nie Ying in the center palace.

Turning back, he looked at the stunned Nie Ying and asked with a smile, pretending to be ignorant: "What's wrong with my wife?"

"Husband, the wage you just told Master Yuan was a mid-level 180 yuan, and the contract wage you offered was a mid-level 300 yuan?" Nie Ying couldn't believe her eyes.

"Yes, you read that right. Your husband made a profit of 120 yuan from this." Sun Zecheng admitted openly.

"This is not right! This is...anyway, this is not right! This is not good"

"This is corruption, wife, you can just say it out loud," Sun Zecheng said with a smile.

"You think this is wrong, this is not good, you think I should truthfully fill in the 180 yuan, right?"

"Yes," Nie Ying responded doubtfully.

"Then have you ever thought about why your master gave me three hundred spirit stones?"

Nie Ying looked at Sun Zecheng in confusion.

"Let me tell you, because the market price is about this much, or according to the previous wages of the Yellow Maple Valley, it should be this much."

Nie Ying seemed to be thinking about something.

"Then, have you ever thought that if I truthfully filled in the 180 yuan, wouldn't the previous contractors be considered corrupt?"

Nie Ying frowned, obviously looking confused as if she was thinking about something.

……

"Did you let me see it on purpose?" Nie Ying suddenly asked.
