Zhang Qing and the four others followed Fan Lin into the villa with expressionless faces.
Huoyuan Villa is very large, it is said that it covers an area of nearly a hundred acres, and naturally, the spiritual field is also within the scope of the Villa.
"Ten acres of spiritual land occupies about 35% of the land of the villa, so in real terms, the living area of the villa is not as big as the rumors say." Fan Lin said with a smile.
An acre of spiritual land is not just that acre. Often, there will be a large area of land barren around an acre of spiritual land, which is equivalent to all the nutrients of the land being used to supply that acre.
In addition, the maintenance of the spiritual field is not a simple matter. Every year, spiritual stones need to be buried in the spiritual field to maintain the spirituality of the spiritual field.
Therefore, among many small cultivating forces, their spiritual fields are scattered here and there, and people are sent to guard those spiritual fields from time to time to prevent Xiaoxiao from destroying and plundering.
From this point of view, Huoyuan Villa is countless times better, because their spiritual fields were created with the help of the Zhang family, and they are all concentrated inside the Villa, which greatly ensures safety.
This is also the fundamental reason why Huoyuan Villa has prospered over the years.
"Guys, my father is already waiting in the hall." Fan Lin said with his hand, but he had no intention of entering the hall.
Zhang Qing and others did not respond to Fan Lin, but walked in with the arrogance of the Zhang family, making Fan Lin's eyes behind them darken.
You know, even the people from Lingyue Chamber of Commerce are polite to him, ha!
In the main lobby of Huoyuan Villa, Zhang Qing saw the first old man from Huoyuan at a glance.
But what surprised him was that Old Huoyuan was not the only one here. To one side of him, there were two men silently drinking tea.
Regarding the arrival of Zhang Qing and others, Old Man Huoyuan stood up to greet them politely, and then guided the four of them to sit down on his right side.
"I wonder why the envoys from my family came to the villa this time?" After the greetings, the old man Huoyuan asked knowingly.
Zhang Qing smiled slightly, "I'm disturbing the owner of the village this time because the family wants to confirm the recent sake production of Huoyuan Villa, so they sent us here specially."
"This is a common practice, so the owner of the village shouldn't be surprised, but I wonder who these people are...?"
Zhang Qing looked at the two people opposite him. The power in his body was quietly changing, and the spiritual consciousness in the early stage of foundation building was quietly released. Then he confirmed that the two people were indeed wearing a pair of metal armors under their clothes.
No wonder the movements seemed a little stiff, Zhang Qing had roughly confirmed the identities of these two people.
Old Man Huoyuan chuckled, and then introduced the two of them, "These two are the deacons from the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce, Fellow Daoist Tang Yi and Fellow Daoist Ren Yuan."
"The two of them came here for the sake trade. I am also very embarrassed about this matter."
"Deal?" Zhang Qing laughed and looked at the old man Huoyuan, "Senior, what's the problem? 50% of the sake flowers from the ten acres of spiritual land in Huoyuan Villa will be sent to Chihu, and 50% will be kept for himself. In addition to the cultivation costs, all The amount of spiritual stones obtained is only about a thousand a year, right? This amount of spiritual stones is still very scarce for cultivating my own monks, so how can I still have enough to trade with others?"
Old Man Huoyuan didn't speak anymore, but Tang Yi on the opposite side laughed, "Isn't it obvious? From now on, Huoyuan Villa will no longer provide sake flowers to the Zhang family. All sake flowers will be with me." Lingyue Chamber of Commerce will contact you."
The face of the first old man from Huoyuan was a little ugly. Their previous statements were not so decisive.
But he also knew that since he had chosen, he could only go one way to the end. It was impossible to think about saving some face for the Zhang family. Neither the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce nor the Zhang family would allow him to play both sides.
"Oh?" Zhang Qing ignored Tang Yi and looked at Old Man Huoyuan.
The old man Huoyuan, who was stared at by Zhang Qing and felt a little uncomfortable, finally said, "In the past thirty years, the villa has never been short of sake flowers sent to Chihu, even if the villa itself suffered heavy losses due to various reasons."
"Thirty years, in total, we have already repaid the Zhang family's debt. Huoyuan Villa should think about it for itself."
The old man looked at Zhang Qing helplessly and told the truth why he was anxious.
"There are more and more juniors in the clan who have the talent for cultivation. One thousand spiritual stones a year, even if everyone is still using other methods to earn spiritual stones, is not enough for everyone to practice. To be honest with the messenger, I have already Stop using the elixir."
"If the villa does not have more resources, those juniors may not be able to reach the later stage of Qi training in their lifetime."
In recent years, several juniors with spiritual root talents can be said to have surprised and frustrated Huoyuan Villa. They have more practitioners, but they do not have enough resources to train them.
This is why Old Man Huoyuan took refuge in the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce despite the risk of offending the Zhang family.
Because as long as 20% of the sake flowers are paid to Lingyue Chamber of Commerce, and the remaining 30% is sold to the Chamber of Commerce in the form of a transaction, it can be said that Huoyuan Villa suddenly gains 50% to 60% of the spiritual stone income.
The current scene is only possible due to the trend of interests.
After listening to the explanation of the old man Huoyuan, Zhang Qing nodded, "The owner of the village is right. It is indeed a distressing thing to have no resources to train the younger generations."
"But, what does this have to do with my Zhang family?" Zhang Qing stared at the old man Huoyuan and said indifferently:
"The same goes for the Zhang family. They also need to train younger generations of monks. Do you think the Zhang family will give up Huoyuan Villa?"
Old Man Huo Yuan's face turned ugly, "There are only two thousand spirit stones a year, which is nothing but a trivial matter in the Zhang family. Is your family really short of this few spirit stones? In my opinion, it's just a little friend For you personally, it’s easy to earn two thousand spirit stones, right?”
"So what? If not, so what? Does this have anything to do with Huoyuan Villa?"
Zhang Qing stood up, "If the village owner can't give me a suitable answer today, I'm afraid many people will die here."
"Really?" On the opposite side, Tang Yi and Ren Yuan also stood up and looked at Zhang Qing coldly. The surging evil energy burst out from their bodies, causing Ji Yue and Lou Shaoen's expressions to change.
They are people who are decisive in killing, so it can be easily seen that the murderous aura of these two people is more terrifying than them.
"I have killed people from the Jinlan Sect, and I really want to try the Zhang family's Immortal Fire inheritance." After Tang Yi finished speaking, he looked at the old man Huoyuan.
"What are you waiting for? The Chamber of Commerce needs your certificate of nomination, and it just so happens that the lives of these Zhang family disciples are on the doorstep. If you continue to hesitate, there will be no such big benefit."
Old Man Huoyuan, who had always been sitting in his seat, gritted his teeth, his eyes became fierce, and after standing up, he crushed the tea cup in his hand to pieces.
At the same time, chaotic footsteps sounded around the lobby, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of mortal soldiers in armor had surrounded the place.
"If you want to imitate the Wang family, you must have a white deer." Zhang Mingxian stood up, and a bloody long sword quietly appeared in his hand.
