Early next morning.
Du Ge, his junior brothers, junior sisters, and the captives from last night blocked the door of Li Zheng's house in the village at the foot of the mountain. He announced his family name with a smile: "Wang Chong, the new head of the Seven Star Sect, has met Li Zheng."
Behind him, there was a large crowd of curious people, pointing at a few shiny bald heads.
Without him!
Several monks from Tianlan Valley were only wearing white middle coats, and Du Ge had the two big black characters "Tianlan" written on their backs with a brush.
Under the words, there is also a series of small numbers written.
Their feet were strung together by ropes, and they all looked like prisoners with downcast eyes.
Li Zheng opened the door with sleepy eyes. When he saw this scene, he suddenly woke up. He quickly clasped his fists and returned the greeting: "I have met Mr. Wang."
The few handymen driven down the mountain by Duge were all from nearby villages.
Yesterday, what happened at Seven Star Sect had already passed through their mouths, and everyone in several villages knew about it.
The two cultivation sects were fighting for territory. The Tianlan Valley was powerful, and the Seven Star Sect was massacred. Many died and some fled, leaving only three or four disciples to support their appearance...
Li Zheng was always on top of the goings-on in the village, and he knew everything about the Seven Star Gate.
After all, he is an official, so Li Zheng naturally knows that at this time, he cannot offend the people of the Seven Star Sect.
They were already at the end of their rope, and when they provoked their anger and chopped him off with a sword, who could he ask to reason?
"I wonder why Master Wang came down the mountain?" Li Zheng was talking, his eyes involuntarily glanced at the few bald heads behind Duge, and he was surprised. It's not that the people in Tianlan Valley are very powerful, even Master Guan was beaten to death. Yet?
What's going on with these guys?
Tianlan?
Are you from Tianlan Valley?
well!
Duge sighed: "Master Li Zheng must have heard about the family teacher's matter."
Li Zheng clasped his fists again: "I would like to express my condolences to Zhenren Wang. When Guan Zhenren is buried, Li will bring people to express condolences. If you need Li's help during the funeral, just ask Zhenren Wang."
"Master Li Zheng, if cultivators don't have so many red tapes, you won't have to worry about the funeral." Du Ge said, "Today Wang came to Li Zheng for something important..."
Seeing more and more people gathering behind Duge, Li Zheng stepped aside and opened the door: "Master Wang, this is not the place to talk. Let's go inside and talk in detail."
"No, it's good to talk here. What Wang wants to say is also relevant to everyone." Du Ge clasped his fists and made a bow to the people behind him, then looked at Li Zheng, who was full of doubts, "Master Li Zheng Now that we have learned about our master’s death, we must also know about the conflict between the Seven Star Sect and Tianlan Valley.”
"I've heard a few things." Li Zheng frowned.
"After my master has passed away, I will temporarily take over as the head of the Seven Star Sect." Duge sighed again, "Wang learned from the painful changes in the Seven Star Sect and believed that the Seven Star Sect's indifference to the world was the cause of this disaster. The reason. Last night, Wang stayed up all night, thinking about it, and decided to change the current situation of the Seven Star Gate from the root, and invite more people to jointly build the Seven Star Gate..."
Li Zheng was stunned: "What is joint construction?"
"The purpose is to allow more people to invest money in the Seven Star Sect, help the Seven Star Sect become bigger and stronger, and create brilliance together," Du Ge said.
Li Zheng murmured: "I don't quite understand."
"Lord Li Zheng, the reason why the Seven Star Sect is in trouble is that there is no one available in the sect. Therefore, Wang's next plan for the Seven Star Sect is to expand the sect, recruit more disciples, and make the Seven Star Sect one of the best sects in the world of practice." Duge smiled and said, "If you want to expand the sect, you need a lot of money. Li Zheng knows the current situation of the Seven Star Sect. There are only four junior sisters and me left, so we are determined not to be able to spend so much money, so he decided to I thought of raising funds and investing in shares.”
"Does the real person want us to donate silver to build the Seven Star Gate?" Li Zheng asked.
"Donating is equivalent to robbing. Wang is a decent person and doesn't bother to do those dirty things." Du Ge waved his hand and said, "Wang is talking about buying shares, which means running Qixingmen as a store. Wang made a preliminary estimate. The land of Qixingmen, the mountain gate, even the spiritual energy in it, as well as the resources of our sect, can be equivalent to about 5 million silver taels. Wang plans to use 40% of it, convert it into shares, raise funds from the private sector, and use the silver taels to raise money. Come to build the sect and recruit disciples.
In the future, when the sect becomes bigger and gradually gets on the right track, people who have invested in it before can get dividends from Qixing Mountain based on the shares in their hands.
To use a simple analogy, 2 million taels, if Li Zheng pays out 100,000 taels, it is equivalent to occupying one-fiftieth of the shares of Qixing Sect.
In the future, if the Seven Star Sect earns one million taels a year, leaving aside the expenses required for running the sect, Li Zheng can get at least 20,000 taels of dividends. No need to worry about it, no labor required, just sit at home and wait for the money to be collected. Why not? Why? "
"Master Wang is joking, I can't afford one hundred thousand taels." Li Zheng said with a smile.
"I'm just making an assumption." Du Ge smiled, "If you can't afford one hundred thousand taels, if you invest ten taels of silver into the stock, you can get 20 taels of dividends. For a family like Li Zheng, that's enough for a month or two. The money is enough for food and clothing. If you keep the money at home, it will not produce other money. It is better to invest it in the Seven Star Sect and make a seed..."
"Master, you are right to say so, but Mr. Li has never heard of a practicing sect doing secular business, and I don't know where you practitioners make money?" Li Zheng glanced at Duge in embarrassment, "How about that? , let’s discuss this matter again!”
"Li Zheng doesn't know the sect, so how can he know that the sect has no way to make money?"
Duge smiled, "The Seven Star Sect is a huge treasure mountain with abundant spiritual energy. If you plant some rare medicinal materials and sell them, they will be a hundred times better than the medicinal materials in the world. The Seven Star Sect recruits disciples from outside and teaches them the techniques of cultivation. As long as you collect some money, you can Another large amount of income. These are still small amounts of money.
In the future, the Seven Star Sect will grow stronger and the profits from conquering other sects can be counted as the sect's income. If you are lucky and discover one or two spirit stone veins and mine them, you will reach the sky in one step. The ten taels of silver you invested may be doubled a hundred times or a thousand times..."
Behind Duge, the people were whispering, seemingly moved by the grand prospects he described.
The little junior sister and the seventh junior brother were behind Duge, their minds were full of confusion, and they had no idea what their third senior brother was doing?
What do these things he said have to do with growing the master sect?
Doing these worldly business is far better than concentrating on cultivation. Otherwise, no matter how big the business is, Tianlan Valley will still belong to someone else!
…
When did I agree to invest ten taels of silver!
Li Zheng cursed and said with a dry smile: "Master, the calculation is correct. But everyone knows the situation of Seven Star Sect, Tianlan Valley..."
"It turns out that Master Li Zheng is worried about risks, and Tianlan Valley is not worried." Du Ge waved his hand, interrupted Li Zheng, pointed at the bald heads of several Tianlan Valley people behind him, and said, "Li Zheng saw them. Are they? They are the murderers who attacked my Qixing Sect, and they were surrendered by Wang last night. If Wang had not been protected by the ancestors of the Qixing Sect and his skills had greatly increased, how could he have dared to come out to raise money shamelessly? It would have been a scam. ?"
"Are they really from Tianlan Valley?" Li Zheng asked suspiciously.
"Seventh Junior Brother, unlock the restriction on Zero Zero One." Duge turned around and ordered Seventh Junior Brother.
The seventh junior brother unlocked his restraints and also untied the ropes around his feet.
"Zero Zero One, tell everyone, are you from Tianlan Valley?" Duge asked with a stern face.
Seeing Du Ge's cold eyes and wagging fingers, Ling Ling Yi shivered and said honestly: "Yes, I am a third-generation disciple of Tianlan Valley. My name is Kong Gui. I was captured by the headmaster Wang last night. Captured, now I am imprisoned in the Seven Star Gate as a guilty person, numbered 0001."
"Show everyone your strength." Duge said again.
Before going out, Du Ge used the corpse of their junior brother to show them what it meant to remove the internal organs from the air. The miraculous technique almost frightened them to death. In order to survive, they did not dare to make any mistakes.
and.
In their opinion, as long as they are alive, even if they are tortured, as long as someone comes from Tianlan Valley, they will be able to rescue them...
Ling Ling Zero inspected a circle and looked at the stone mill on the side of the road. He walked over silently, hugged it with both hands, and raised it easily above his head. Then he walked around a few times and put it back again. He couldn't get out. Sweating, expression unchanged.
It attracted cheers from the people watching.
"Li Zheng must have replied this time!" Du Ge casually sealed his meridians again, looked back at Li Zheng, and said with a smile, "Tianlan Valley and Qixingmen are far apart. The owner of Tianlan Valley is not here. With Jindan cultivation, they are no match for the seniors of my sect. If they don’t come, that’s it. If they dare to come, they will never come back. By then, we have taken over the Tianlan Valley’s property, which can also be regarded as the income of the Seven Star Sect.”
Pull the tiger's skin and make a big flag.
Dougal's face glowed with confidence and arrogance.
"Master Wang, when did the Seven Star Sect have seniors again?" Li Zheng asked strangely.
"The Seven Star Sect has been inherited for five hundred years. Is it strange that there are seniors from the sect?" Duge glanced at him and said, "If not, how could I defeat them with my ability? You know, even my master is not Their opponents. In the past, the reason why the Seven Star Sect was not good was because of the lack of skills. Now that the seniors have completed the skills, even I can take down several people who killed the master overnight. The strength of our Seven Star Sect is just around the corner."
"..." Li was looking at the people from the Seven Star Sect, still feeling uneasy, and asked, "Zhenren Wang, can Mr. Li meet the senior from the Seven Star Sect?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to see you again." Duge smiled, "It's rude to come and not come back. Tianlan Valley bullied me like this. How could the senior swallow such a breath? After leaving the skills, he went to find Tianlan all night long. Lan Gu is in trouble.”
Li Zheng fell into silence again.
Du Ge smiled: "It seems that Li Zheng doesn't believe Wang anymore. Anyway, Qixing Sect wants to raise 2 million taels of silver. After all, the small mountain village has no money, so Li Zheng should be responsible for the villagers."
He shook his head and said, "The construction of Seven Star Gate requires a huge amount of money. Wang's original intention was to find those famous families. But after thinking about it, we have lived together for many years and we are neighbors after all.
If there is an opportunity to make a fortune, you cannot leave it to your neighbors and give it to outsiders.
Therefore, Wang was the first to come to Li Zheng. After talking with Li Zheng, Wang had to visit several other villages, and then went to the towns to find big investors to raise funds. Since Li Zheng is being cautious, let’s just drop this deal! "
Li Zheng remained silent. If it were an ordinary transaction, he would have made the final decision. But when it came to the practice sect, if he made a mistake, there would be no room for reasoning.
Duge was never short-changed, and Li Zheng was a tough guy. He turned to the common people and said, "Li Zheng is not willing to buy shares, are you all willing? I can't reject a whole village just because of one person."
