Qiu Ping took a tour of [Dinghai Area]. Compared with before, there was basically not much improvement here.
However, the construction of his Dinghai Longhou Palace has already begun. Under the organization of Xie Wujia, hundreds of sea monsters began to lay the foundation underwater.
After all, Xie Wugou is also an immortal, and he also controls a realm. If he wants to build the Longhou Palace, he can still find some people.
It's just this progress...
Qiu Ping couldn't help but cover his face as he looked at the sea monsters that were huge in size but could only run around all over the ground.
The intelligence of these monsters is much lower than that of river monsters and land monsters. They can't even understand the instructions to dig a hole, but they dig a hole with a hammer and a shovel here and there, digging holes everywhere in the ground, which are like dog bites. Like.
For a little loach that has been specialized in digging holes for a hundred years, the blood pressure will immediately rise.
This can't go on like this.
He immediately called Xie Wujie and prepared to give him a good lecture.
With these weak minds, Qiu Ping could no longer imagine what he could build.
"Lord Longhou."
Xie Wugu stood in front of Qiu Ping, looking at his eyes, nose and heart, like a wooden stake.
"How much money can we put out for the entire Dinghai area now? Or how many resources can we put out?" Qiu Ping asked Xie Wugou.
"Now we have a purple gold mine, a flowing gold placer mine, and three blood coral forests in the Dinghai area..." Xie Wugao reported honestly. In these days, he has figured out the situation in the entire Dinghai area.
Speaking of which, the Dinghai area can be regarded as a place with relatively sufficient resources in the East China Sea. However, it is located in the deep sea and the Dragon Clan has not done much development here. Most of the resources are still buried deep underground in the form of minerals.
This has also led to the fact that the yet-to-be-formed Longhou Mansion is now almost impoverished, and there is no way to directly convert it into property.
The most serious problem in the Dinghai area now is the lack of manpower. Although there are many creatures in the sea, most of them are brainless and do not have much production capacity at all.
Xie Wugou continued to stand there blankly. The reason why he served as the Chief of Longhou Mansion was just to protect the base for the young master. He had no loyalty at all to this little green dragon that appeared out of nowhere.
He is now like a workplace bastard. I will do whatever you ask me to do, but if he wants me to do my duty, I can't do it.
"With the current progress, when will my palace be built? When will we be able to develop the sea area!"
The little loach was very angry and spoke very loudly.
It seems that now we have to find external forces to intervene.
Mr. Bai Zhen? I'm not very familiar with him, and he's so powerful that I can't control him.
Let’s talk about the old affiliated forces in the East China Sea. Qiu Ping doesn’t even know those people, and they have not helped yet. It is estimated that it will be difficult to get them to help.
Hey, there it is!
Qiu Ping slapped his head. If others in this world can't believe it, then I can't believe it myself.
That Qiu Ping and Qiu Tiju of [Falling Dragon Pass] is a first-rate hero. Although I, the little Qinglong Ao Heng, live in the East China Sea, I have heard about it for a long time.
Now we have decided to develop the sea area. I heard that Qiu Ti is generous and generous, so he will definitely send people to help me with the construction here.
And I reciprocate the favor by leasing several mines in the Dinghai area for hundreds of years to use for construction costs. Isn't this wonderful?
As for where the manpower at Qiu Tiju comes from, I haven't heard that Duolongguan is engaged in real estate recently. There are already several families that specialize in cultivating talents in Tiangong construction. Even if they are not as good as the Shinto [Tiangong Supervisor], what's the point? It should not be a big problem to carry out construction in certain sea areas.
It suddenly dawned on Qiu Ping's mind that while he was building here, and trying to find some ancestral dragon relics, he could attract a large number of outsiders to enter the Dinghai area.
In this way, Dinghaiyu has truly entered the fast lane.
"Crab Changshi!"
"You go immediately... No, you immediately issue a tender to the world, saying that I will build a dragon palace here, and I am willing to lease and mortgage a medium-sized purple gold mine for a hundred years in exchange." Qiu Ping quickly called Xie Wugu, Speak out your thoughts.
"Ah...ah?"
"Lord Longhou, what is bidding?"
Xie Wujia couldn't keep up with Qiu Ping's thinking. He had never heard of Laoshizi's tender. What was this?
"I usually ask you to watch more and learn more, but you have already learned it from the dog's belly? Tendering is a method proposed by Qiu Pingqiu Tiju of Shinto. Now it has been promoted and used in many places in Shinto."
"You go find someone yourself and ask how to operate it. Do you want me to teach you?"
Qiu Ping also saw that this old guy had been working hard, so he didn't bother to pamper him.
"Yes, Lord Longhou."
Xie Wugou was not angry, but he was more certain in his heart about the close relationship between this little green dragon and Shinto. How could he easily know about the internal reforms of Shinto if he was not someone close to him.
But isn't it a bit too generous to lease a purple gold mine for a hundred years? In a hundred years, this mine may be exhausted.
Xie Wujia felt a little distressed. He still regarded this Dinghai area as his young master's property.
"Then let's make an agreement. Let these fools stop immediately and let them mine for me. Don't harm my land." After Qiu Ping thought of a way, he looked at the man who was full of people. The sea monsters digging holes in the ground felt even more annoying.
"But then again, where did you find these goodies?"
Qiu Ping pointed at the big sea monsters and turned to look at Xie Wugu.
He didn't remember that there were these sirens in the Dinghai area. They all looked like big winter melons, but they looked a bit like the stupid guy he met when he was a soldier.
"I robbed these from other places in the East China Sea. Most of the sea monster groups in the Dinghai area are eels, shrimps, crabs, etc., and they are not very good at the art of heaven."
Crab Wujia replied honestly.
Although these sea monsters don't seem to be very good at building houses at the moment.
"Can we still kidnap people from Donghai? Won't Donghai send people to investigate?"
Qiu Ping was a little surprised. He was worried about arousing Donghai's anger. Although the Dinghai area was a nail planted by Shinto inside Donghai, Shinto did not arrange a garrison here. With Qiu Ping's current strength, he could not withstand Donghai's offensive. .
"The puppet king of the East China Sea, who is actually in charge of the East China Sea, has long been idle. Others in the East China Sea are unable to monitor everything in the East China Sea. The East China Sea is so vast and divided by countless forces. Even if the population is smaller, who can know."
Xie Wujia briefly explained some of the things here to Qiu Ping.
Although the East China Sea is revered by true dragons, only the richest area is controlled by true dragons, and other areas are managed by each ethnic group themselves.
This situation is very similar to a feudal system. The true dragon is the largest lord and the co-owner of all forces. But under the True Dragon, all forces occupy different places based on ethnic groups.
These forces need to pay taxes to the Dragon Palace every year, and will also send a small number of soldiers to serve the Dragon Palace in turns all year round.
If there is a war, a handwritten letter from the Dragon King can ask all the forces in the East China Sea to bring their own dry food and troops to defend against foreign enemies.
But what follows is a high degree of autonomy from these forces.
Even the Dragon King is not allowed to interfere at will in matters within each party's sphere of influence.
Under this situation, even if some sea monsters were kidnapped in Dinghai area, it would not attract much attention from the outside world.
"It turns out that the situation in the East China Sea is like this."
Qiu Ping touched the beard on his lips with his paws, thinking deeply in his heart.
The more power in the East China Sea is fragmented, the greater their chances of profiting from it.
…
"I've seen Mr. Jiji."
In the main hall of the Tiju Division, Qiu Ping transformed into a human form and sat on the desk. Although he was only three feet tall and looked a little funny, Cao Xin, who was below, did not dare to be disrespectful at all.
A sixth-grade god and a great demon in the Holy Embryo Realm were already unquestionably important figures to her.
What's more, the Cao family is now under his guidance and has contracted many Shinto temple and house construction projects, which has made the Cao family more closely tied to Qiu Ping and gained a lot of benefits from it.
"This is a bidding document from Donghai. Please read it. I'm going to let the Cao family take over this matter."
Qiu Ping reached out and threw it, and a piece of jade slip flew in front of Cao Xin.
Cao Xun read it quickly. After reading it completely, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
"Build a Dragon Marquis palace, and use a medium-sized purple gold mine as collateral?"
This is too generous. Purple gold is a widely used material in the spiritual world. Because it has a very strong affinity with the soul, normal magic weapons are more or less mixed with purple gold.
And a medium-sized purple gold mine, if converted into Shinto incense, is probably equivalent to at least tens of millions of incense.
Even if it is only allowed to be mined for a hundred years, it is still a very terrifying wealth.
And the other party's request is just to build a palace?
"Since the Dragon Marquis of Dinghai wants to build a palace, you definitely can't build it according to ordinary palaces. It must be built according to the Dragon King's regulations." Qiu Ping coughed lightly and reminded Cao Xin.
The Dragon Marquis of Dinghai is his trumpet, and the Dinghai area is also his fiefdom. Naturally, he doesn't want to be taken advantage of in vain.
If the entire Dragon Marquis Hall were built according to the specifications of the Dragon King Hall, the scale would probably be several times larger than the current [Falling Dragon Pass] Liju Division. The internal city, houses, and magic formations would need to be considered in advance.
Said to be a palace, this is actually a huge city without walls.
When Cao Ying heard what Qiu Ping said, her face changed a little. With the current strength of the Cao family, they could not build such a huge building.
We must ask the Shinto Tiangong Supervisor to come over.
Especially the countless magic formations in the palace. How these magic formations are interlocked and how they cooperate with each other requires communication between the formation masters and their construction craftsmen. The cost of designing the drawings alone is sky-high.
"You don't need to be too stressed. Dinghai Longhou also said that the construction of this main hall does not need to be completed at one time. Your Cao family will build the inner hall first, and then slowly build other places."
"Longhou can even hand over the purple gold mine to you for mining in advance as a deposit."
Qiu Ping looked at Cao Xin's frightened expression and continued to explain. As for the candidates for mining, he has already decided. His loach clan is best at digging holes.
In the past few months, another batch of cubs from the Fuhe loach clan have been born with intelligence, and they are basically ready to go out to work.
Of course, when these loaches are sent to the Dinghai area, they must be formally organized. Although they do work that is absent from work, they receive the salary and treatment within the establishment, and they definitely cannot have the same living standards as those silly big sea monsters.
Anyway, the Dinghai area is your own territory. As long as you can afford it, no one cares how many establishment quotas you are given.
After Qiu Ping explained, Cao Xin's face looked better.
"Since Master Tiju has left this matter to my Cao family, we will do it properly and won't embarrass you!"
Cao Xing assured him sternly.
Although at present, the Cao family may not make much money from it, but if they can completely digest this order, the Cao family's reputation in the cultivation world will be established, and their level of heavenly craftsmanship will also improve by leaps and bounds.
"Go ahead and follow the normal bidding process. You have done it several times before, so you should be familiar with it."
Whether it is Little Loach or Little Qinglong, it is Qiu Ping himself. Although it is a bidding process, he has already decided who will be chosen in the end.
Of course, he couldn't do this kind of job for outsiders.
The reason for going through the bidding process one more time is, firstly, to avoid exposing the identity of Little Loach and Little Qinglong as much as possible, and secondly, to make a live advertisement in the cultivation world.
Let people know that there is a stupid and wealthy Dinghai Longhou in the East China Sea. Come and defraud him of his money.
This can be regarded as an alternative way of increasing the territory's population.
The little loach is used to saving, so he must squeeze out every bit of residual value.
After a few more explanations, Cao Xun exited the hall.
But when there was no one around, the little loach lost its previous image and lay limply on the seat.
Most of the things at hand have been completed, and then the next step is to execute them step by step.
"call."
Qiu Ping slightly operated [Taiyuan Method], and in the sea of consciousness that turned into Tianchi, the stars rotated slightly. In an instant, the spiritual essence in the void poured into his body, and the intensity of the exhalation was almost thirty times more than before. .
Despite his small size now, he is like a giant Kun with the potential to swallow up the world.
The mana he had previously consumed was replenished a lot after a few breaths.
Fortunately, he is the boss of Fallen Dragon Pass and controls one-ninth of the spiritual essence transportation of Shinto. Naturally, he can retain some more spiritual essence for his own cultivation.
This is the convenience of Shinto practice. In this huge physique, even a little leakage is enough to supplement endless resources on the path of practice.
This feeling of surging spiritual essence passing through the body makes the little loach very comfortable.
What he had practiced before was the instinctive method of swallowing and refining spiritual essence. Even if he learned a bunch of magical powers, it was a method of application, but not a method of establishing the Tao.
Only after receiving the Taiyuan inheritance could he break out of the wild path and become a formal disciple.
The little loach just wants to say one thing now, it smells so good!
