"So Qingjin, what are your plans for the future?" Shen Fangxu asked again.
"Dad, what do you think?" Qingjin thought for a moment and asked simply.
"Qingjin, the current situation is that no matter whether you are willing or not, the Taoist people will not let you go easily. Unless you are a coward like your second uncle and ruin yourself."
Uncle Shen directly covered his face with his hands. I couldn't hear, I couldn't hear.
"Dad, I want to fight." Qingjin looked at her second uncle covering his face and felt like laughing.
"Then let me tell you my thoughts. Qingjin, I plan to knock down the surrounding ironwood trees and build a small city directly here. Meishan is just a small town three miles east to west. We have to knock down the surrounding ironwood trees here. , it is entirely possible to build a small city three or four miles east to west at the entrance of the peninsula." Shen Fang said.
"Build the city?" Qingjin was surprised.
"Yes, it is to build the city. In fact, although many children from big families in Donghuang are not willing to come, there are still many children from poor families and children from small families who are willing to come and take risks. The key is that they do not have a suitable place for them to stay.
The city built by Taoist court was particularly unfriendly to them. Whether it is food, clothing, supplies, accommodation, elixirs, weapons, etc., they are all expensive. The price of some trauma medicine powder is many times higher than that in the hinterland of the human race. However, the prices for purchasing various Donghuang specialties, such as ferocious beast meat, are extremely low.
Even if you say less, you will cut off half of the price charged in the hinterland.
A pound of flesh from a ninth-level vicious fish that died in the Eastern Wasteland cost only eight red gold coins. In the hinterland of the human race, one pound costs at least twenty red gold coins.
Over the years, Daoting has made a lot of money just by earning price differences on supplies in the four frontiers.
But ordinary casual cultivators from poor families can't even earn a piece of their hard-earned money. "
"What dad means is that we provide this station to the casual cultivators and earn the price difference, but where can we sell Donghuang's specialties and buy the various elixirs and weapons that others need?" Qingjin He frowned.
"As long as we build the city, people will naturally come over." Shen Fangxu smiled mysteriously. "Actually, there is no shortage of channels and merchants. What is lacking is the strength to protect the city. Eastern Wilderness Beast Tide Wuyang Wuyang has an average of several small beast tides a month, and large beast tides once a year, or Once every few years.
There are wars in Dongli Mountain every day, so Meishan County seems a little safer.
But we in Coiling Snake Mountain are not that troublesome. We have an underwater dojo. Who among the beasts around has nothing to do and comes here looking for death? "
Qingjin suddenly realized that there was no shortage of adventurous people in Donghuang who risked their lives to earn money.
Even if you are in the wilderness, there are some special human camps that are responsible for supplying various resources to casual cultivators and purchasing various specialties of the Eastern Wilderness.
Not to mention that the construction of the city here is guaranteed. Even safer than Meishan County. After all, that stupid villain dared to lead his team to jump on the head of an innate god and demon?
"But if we want to build the city, we don't have enough manpower."
"Why should we repair it ourselves? We can just find someone to repair it. After the repair is completed, we just need to hand over part of the land to them for use. We can also charge rent."
Ahem, cough, cough, Qingjin was speechless, thinking to herself, isn’t this a waste of money? "What can people do?"
"Why not?" Shen Fangxu looked like you don't understand. "As long as it's profitable, those guys are willing to do anything for you in exchange for greater benefits. You're just watching this matter. That’s fine, dad will make arrangements.”
Qing Xiaohu: "Dad, am I not the lord?"
"Step aside and let your brother come. From now on, your brother will be the lord of the city." Shen Fang used his big hands to pull away his little girl who was sticking her head out like a duck.
Qingjin laughed.
Qingqing asked in confusion, "Dad, why don't you become the city lord?"
"I am the city lord. Does this city belong to you or the Shen family? Your eldest brother is a direct disciple of the Taoist master. If he is the city lord, everyone will give him some respect. How about others?"
Feng Siniang first nodded in agreement to her man, and then snatched the little girl away.
"Why do you, a little girl, get involved? Your brothers are responsible for cultivation, so you just have to be responsible for living a good life."
Qing Xiaohu was convinced after hearing this.
"Then just listen to dad." Qingjin decided.
"Oh, that's right. Old Zhao, we two brothers will work hard this time. We must make a name for ourselves in this Eastern Wasteland." Shen Fangxu said to Uncle Zhao in high spirits. Uncle Zhao nodded.
Shen Fangxu is a person who does what he says.
He had just decided to build the city and immediately sent people to contact his connections to find suitable caravans and chambers of commerce to partner with.
The next day, representatives from the caravan and the chamber of commerce came to discuss with him. On the third day, someone led a team into the site and started cutting down the ironwood. At first, while everyone was chopping wood, they were also careful to guard against wild and ferocious beasts that might come running when they heard the noise.
Who knows, after a few days of precaution, no wild beasts or ferocious beasts came to cause trouble. Only then was it confirmed that it was indeed safe to build a city here.
Seeing that safety was guaranteed, the four construction teams that arrived first immediately increased their manpower and brought in five or six times the number of people. The construction site suddenly expanded several times. Moreover, other chambers of commerce and caravans who came after hearing the news also met with Shen Fangxu and asked to enter.
Building a city is a big project, so the more manpower the better.
Shen Fangxu almost refuses to accept anyone who comes, but requires that the quality and quantity must be maintained. Moreover, the property rights of all the buildings built belong to Shen Qingjin and the city. They can rent at low prices in the future.
The geographical conditions here in Coiling Snake Mountain are extremely close to the boundary line of the human race. In other words, not far away is the complete Eastern Wasteland.
You can make a lot of money just by receiving individual travelers and caravans every year.
Not to mention that it is backed by a dojo, so the future is very safe. Therefore, many caravans and chambers of commerce who saw the value here went to Shen Fangxu and wanted to own their own property here, even if the place was smaller.
Even though a sparrow is small, it still has all the internal organs. If it doesn't work, just dig underground.
Question: Shen Fangxu is not stupid. How much does it cost to build a house? Even if it is good to rent it to you at a low price, do you still want a full set of real estate? How is that possible.
The city here and any buildings in the city belong to his son.
In the midst of all the twists and turns, within ten days, the prototype of a small town four miles long from east to west and three miles wide from north to south had appeared.
Even many buildings in the city have been completed.
It turned out that all the seven to eight hundred citizens in the Shen family's territory were arranged to do logistics.
Things like boiling water, cooking, washing clothes, and repairing tools. What carries grain and supplies vegetables and meat.
Recently, the consumption of chickens and rabbits raised by everyone has increased significantly. Adult male rabbits are almost exhausted. Even the female rabbits who didn't like to give birth to babies killed several of them. Little No-Majs are particularly hard hit. There were only fifty or sixty chickens left to eat.
Fortunately, the young men in charge of hunting brought back more than a hundred large chickens and several large baskets of eggs.
