During his stay in Guangde County, when he had nothing to do, Lu Ping would wander around Guangde County, paying attention to the monks living here and the economic pillars of Guangde County.
As the largest town within a hundred miles, Guangde County has a population of more than 30,000 people.
There are currently one hundred and thirty-six monks living there, most of whom are Qi practicing casual cultivators.
Lu Ping did not see any of the foundation-building monks.
These casual cultivators are the backbone of Guangde County. They have played a huge role in consolidating the stability of Guangde County. They are also the group that Xu Mengyuan pays close attention to on weekdays. He will often interview these casual cultivators about their life and practice in the city.
Because whether it is in Lushan County, the entire Chu State, or even Lingxi Prefecture, once monks and mortals live in a town, the monks will inevitably drive the economic development of the surrounding areas, and the emergence of industries such as Xiuxianfang City and spiritual field planting.
Many cultivating families, or capable casual cultivators, will hire mortals as labor force to do things that mortals can do, such as building attics, transporting supplies, etc., in order to free up more time for cultivation.
Mortals will also get various benefits from immortal cultivators, earn rewards, broaden their horizons, get in touch with immortals, etc.
In Guangde County, Lu Ping noticed that many casual cultivators have been discussing with Xu Mengyuan recently. They want to join forces with Xu Mengyuan to build a small Xiuxianfang City in the city to meet the daily transactions between monks and purchase some Basic Qi training pills, first- and second-level magic weapons, talismans, etc.
In this way, there is no need to frequently travel to Qinghefang City, Xihefang City and other Xiuxianfang City, and there is no need to travel far.
In Guangde County, the future development of the self-built Xiuxianfang City will inevitably be indispensable.
But because Xu Mengyuan was in secret retreat, Zhang Xiao came forward to temporarily receive these casual cultivators.
"According to the long-term development of Guangde County, it is impossible to build this large Xiuxianfang City. With a scale of more than a hundred monks, it is possible to build a small Xiuxianfang City."
"Qingshan Sect's future cultivation supplies, such as spiritual fish, magic weapons, elixirs, etc., can be directly transported to Guangde County for sale."
After learning the thoughts of the casual cultivators in the city, Lu Ping thought for a while, then returned to the city lord's palace and sent a message to Lu Zhiwei to tell him about it.
If there is demand, there will be a market.
The construction of Xiuxianfang City in Guangde County is not difficult to implement.
The Qingshan Sect itself has a store in Qinghefang City, and the sect can also produce resources such as Qingzhu Sword, Qi Lian Dan, and even Spirit Fish, and it is completely possible for a batch to flow into Guangde County for sale.
"Build a small Xiuxianfang City in Guangde County..."
"Father, I think it can be done."
After hearing this, Lu Zhiwei was quiet for a while and then said: "Guangde County also belongs to our own territory. It is not difficult to build a Xiuxianfang City."
"Yes, for construction matters, there is no need to wait for Xu Mengyuan to leave the country. Let's contact Yuanshan to start the matter."
"Compared to building your own Xiuxianfang City, it is much better to compete with other shops in Qinghefang City, and there is no need to rely on others."
Lu Ping said slowly.
"Well, let's discuss it together after big brother comes together."
After Lu Zhiwei also thought it was feasible, Lu Ping sent a message to Lu Yuanshan that day to explain the matter.
In itself, building a small Xiuxianfang City is not difficult for the Qingshan Sect, and it is built in Guangde County, so it can be said to be a very simple matter.
In Guangde County, there is already the prototype of a Xiuxianfang City. In certain markets in the south of the city where cultivators hang out, there are often street stalls set up by cultivators.
As long as these places are planned in a unified manner, integrated into one place, and a designated trading place for Xiuxianfang City is established, then Xiuxianfang City can be considered established.
After receiving Lu Ping's order, Lu Yuanshan came to Guangde County on the next day, personally visited various places in Guangde County to inspect, and summoned the immortal cultivators in the city to discuss the construction of a city.
"The Qingshan Sect is going to build a Xiuxianfang City here. Is this true?"
"Fellow Taoist, the head of the Qingshan Sect is here in person, so there can be no falsehood."
"Hahaha, okay, okay!"
"It's long past time to build a city, so that we don't have to go all the way to Qinghefang City. Every time we go there, we worry about someone killing people and grabbing treasures on the way."
"Fellow Taoist, come with us to the City Lord's Mansion quickly! The head of the Qingshan Sect invited me to discuss the construction of Fang City. We must take the initiative to do such good things that are beneficial to us. Don't do anything. delay."
"Yes, yes! Let's go together! Let's go together!"
With the Qingshan Sect stepping forward to provide funding, these casual cultivators were not happy enough. How could they be dissatisfied and refuse to cooperate.
They quickly cooperated actively and met with Lu Yuanshan at the City Lord's Mansion. They discussed the matter that day and talked about it all afternoon, which was quite enthusiastic.
As for why Xu Mengyuan didn't come forward and what he was doing, no one asked any more questions.
Even the Qingshan Sect behind Xu Mengyuan and the head of the Qingshan Sect came forward in person, so it would be great to discuss matters with this head.
This means that Xiuxianfang City was built by Qingshan Sect.
Finally, after heated discussions, a market in the south of the city was chosen as the location, and construction began on the third day.
Lu Yuanshan stayed in Guangde County to take command and planned the construction of this small Xiuxianfang City reasonably and efficiently.
Construction is too easy for immortal cultivators. Some casual cultivators are very motivated and take the initiative to build.
So for a time, mortals around the market could often see immortal cultivators casting spells and using their magical powers, which caused some mortals to stop and watch.
As for the planning and arrangement of shops, stalls and other resources after the market is completed, Lu Yuanshan does not need to worry about these.
It is impossible for more than a hundred casual cultivators to be able to open a shop. Many of them have to tighten their belts and live on a budget. If they are asked to use their spiritual stones to open a shop, they do not have the capital.
Therefore, rather than opening a back door for the casual cultivators in Guangde County to build the Xiuxianfang City, it is better to say that it is a source of income for the Qingshan Sect to generate revenue from operating the market.
According to the construction period, the construction period of this small Xiuxianfang City will take about half a month, and the construction period is not long.
While Lu Yuanshan was paying attention to the construction progress of Fang City, he went to Qinghe Fang City himself according to the purchase list given by Lu Zhiwei.
Because he needed to start refining the spirit beast saddle, he needed to purchase many refining materials. Among them, the two wood-attribute materials, Ziyang wood and Lingxi rattan, may not be available in Qinghefang City, so Lu Yuanshan decided to make a trip himself.
By the way, Lu Yuanshan wanted to visit Qinghefang City so that he could learn and optimize the construction of his own Xiuxianfang City.
After arriving in Qinghefang City, Lu Yuanshan took the lead in entering Qingshan Residence and met with the shopkeeper Xu Yecheng.
