Xie Yuanqian, who had just made a little money, was thinking about how to start a business?
Is it better to take it one step at a time, sleep in the open air, live happily in the rivers and lakes, and finally die romantically in a legendary story? Or is it better to accumulate it and enter the court, and finally be enshrined in Xie's ancestral hall with joy?
Alas, I didn’t expect that once I accepted the assumption that I was a waste in cultivating immortals, the future choices would be so wonderful that I was a bit overwhelmed.
Based on the principle of lying flat and spreading out, Xie Yuanqian finally chose the latter. Why?
The world is dangerous. Fighting and killing people are too troublesome. Isn't it comfortable just lying at home and counting money? Give Blue Star Technology a little more attention, wow! That little life was really comfortable.
Therefore, in order to realize such a bright future, Xie Yuanqian decided to buy a map first.
The dangers in the extraordinary world are more difficult to withstand and more unexpected than in the technological world. If you want to live a peaceful life peacefully, you must not stay in a small town. It is too dangerous.
Confucius said: A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.
Then Xie Yuanqian must find a stable backer and be a little waste with peace of mind.
So, he came to Duobao Pagoda.
On the first floor of Duobao Pagoda, all monks can enter. The items traded are common items, and the reception is ordinary people.
"What does this fellow Taoist need?"
"I want information about this place."
"Where is this place?"
"Intelligence about this country or this continent."
"The consultation fee is 30 spirit stones, and comes with a map of Yu Country."
Xie Yuanqian knew that prices could not be negotiated in a place like this, so he readily handed over the money. The waiter gave him a jade note directly, and the transaction was completed.
Xie Yuanqian will be shocked by this extraordinary power every time. It is obviously a small jade plaque. If you look at it carefully, all the information recorded in it will be instilled into the sea of consciousness. This is incredible. Perhaps this is the charm of the extraordinary world.
Xie Yuanqian learned about the layout of this world through the jade note:
The typical mythical Kyushu-style territory distribution includes the Four Polar Regions continental plate. He is currently in a small town at the foot of Luzhang Mountain in Yuguo in Danling Prefecture in the East Polar Region. It's a typical novice village, so I can earn 1,500 spirit stones so easily.
Yu Country is an established country in Danling Prefecture. Behind it is the Yu Family, a family of immortal cultivators. It has been standing here for 600 years. It is in the middle of Danling Prefecture's national power rankings. It is a typical novice country. If nothing else happens, something will happen to this feather country. It seems that we need to prepare early.
Xie Yuanqian carefully surveyed the map of Yu Country again.
Um……
If you go north from this town, you can go to the Royal Capital, which is definitely more prosperous than this. However, if you want to settle down in the Royal Capital, just being smart is definitely not enough.
If we go west, we have to cross the Zeze. I definitely can't get through it with my little strength, and I don't have enough money either.
There is an official rule to go south, but at this glance, you know that if a conflict breaks out, there will definitely be war in the south. Going south is just asking for trouble.
What about heading east? Then we have to go back to Luzhang Mountain, no matter what.
At first glance, it seems that I might as well stay in this town, but, eh, as a time traveler, I have a kind of destiny in my outlook on life. Although it is really impossible to cultivate as an immortal, when it comes to the small matter of making money, time travel There are too many shortcuts.
And with money, you have the capital to complete the great cause of peace.
Then it’s decided,
Go north! Go to the imperial capital!
Xie Yuanqian, who had made up his mind to drift to the north, started his next plan again.
Learn a technique.
Although he has been practicing in Luzhang Mountain for 30 years, he doesn't know anything. A useless disciple taught by a useless master, alas :-(, I will shed tears if I talk about it too much.
There are more than 1,000 spirit stones left, which is definitely enough to buy an introductory textbook. But what should I choose?
When it comes to practicing alchemy, my fire spirit root talent is not good enough.
When it comes to drawing talisman, I can’t even draw.
When it comes to refining weapons, I feel so tired, so tired, so tired.
When it comes to setting up formations, the learning cost is too high.
hateful! Why can’t the other world I traveled to gain strength by just talking about it, such as writing poems and reciting poems?
It seems that Xie Yuanqian is destined to have a conflict with the cultivation of immortality. As long as he does not cultivate as an immortal, everything will be fine.
After thinking about it, Xie Yuanqian really couldn't think of a good way, so he could only continue to wander around the town.
As the saying goes, opportunities are everywhere as long as you are willing to take a chance.
No, where did Xie Yuanqian go?
Open a mountain martial arts school.
In the world of cultivating immortals, it is not only the path of cultivating immortals that people are passionate about, but this martial art is also extremely prosperous.
Although martial arts are ultimately not as powerful as immortal ones and are very low, in a foreign world where spiritual roots are scarce and monsters are everywhere, ordinary people's demand for martial arts has made martial arts schools prosperous in a small place like Yu Country where immortals and mortals blend together.
The highest level of a warrior is Xiantian. Although he does not have the magical power to fly with a sword and go up to the sky and into the earth, he can barely compete with the Foundation Establishment Immortal. When he meets the people and beasts under the Foundation Establishment, he will crush them in all directions.
The only shortcoming is that lifespan is too short. Generally speaking, even martial arts prodigies cannot live past the age of a hundred years, and martial arts is harmful to the body. When you are young, you are passionate about fighting and killing. When you get older, all kinds of old problems are exposed, and the aging of your organs You can't make it up by taking drugs.
However, as long as a monk embarks on the path to immortality, his life span will be over a hundred years even if he does not practice much. Moreover, cultivating immortality can maintain physical vitality and take medicine to resist the invasion of illness. This is why everyone is keen on cultivating immortality.
Xie Yuanqian thought:
I have the foundation to cultivate immortality. Although it is a little late to switch to martial arts now, maybe I am a martial arts wizard? ! After all, as a time traveler, maybe my talent lies in martial arts?
So he walked into Kaishan Martial Arts School with great expectations.
When the receptionist of Kaishan Martial Arts School saw that a monk had come to the door, he immediately invited the director.
Curator Fu Kaishan asked in a neither humble nor overbearing tone,
"I am Fu Kaishan, the curator. What do you do for me?"
Xie Yuanqian used the unique perception of a monk to sense Fu Kaishan's martial arts realm.
The blood is strong, the sea of qi is full, and the internal strength is secreted. This curator is a master of internal strength, which is equivalent to the 7th level of monks' qi training.
And Xie Yuanqian is just a little salty fish at the fifth level of Qi training, and is indeed inferior to him in terms of strength.
"Xie Yuanqian, I would like to come to the martial arts gym to learn martial arts."
Upon hearing this, the curator looked at Xie Yuanqian suspiciously.
You, a monk, come to learn martial arts? Do you think your life is too long? Or are you here to make me happy?
"Master Immortal, don't say it's a joke. I, a mortal, can still understand the life limit of martial arts and the road to immortality. Please tell me the truth. What are you doing?"
Xie Yuanqian really wanted to learn martial arts, he said sincerely,
"Director Fu, I'm not joking. I really want to learn martial arts. The tuition fee is 100 spirit stones. Is it enough?"
Seeing that Xie Yuanqian had paid for his tuition fees, Director Fu became even more confused.
Weird things happen every year, but this one is particularly weird. Are you willing to spend 100 spiritual stones to learn martial arts? how? Do you have too much money and no place to spend it? But he seems to be serious like this, right?
"Master Immortal, I am the one who is at the highest level in my martial arts school. Do you still want to learn martial arts from me like this?"
I, Xie Yuanqian, definitely didn’t come to be your apprentice to Fu Kaishan! what are you thinking about? I'm here to learn martial arts, okay?
"No, no, no, Director Fu, you have misunderstood. I am here to learn martial arts, not to be an apprentice in your martial arts gym."
oops! Wouldn't it be over if I said that earlier? Let me just say, how could such a stupid monk come to my small martial arts studio to practice martial arts instead of cultivating the path to immortality?
Fu Kaishan, who finally understood, readily agreed.
"Okay, I will sell you the martial arts secrets from my martial arts school, but you can only learn them here and cannot teach them to others! As for the price, 100 spirit stones is too much, so just give me 50!"
This curator is really a real person, and he will take the initiative to bargain.
"Okay, just follow what the curator said."
In fact, it's not that the gym director doesn't want it, it's just that his martial arts gym really doesn't have any good martial arts secrets. If Xie Yuanqian finds out that the goods are not worth the price after completing his studies, the martial arts gym's sign will be ruined.
Because I have to stay in Kaishan Martial Arts School to study martial arts, I also have a place to eat and sleep. I, Xie Yuanqian, am really a clever little guy.
In the next few days, for the sake of 50 spirit stones, the curator personally taught Xie Yuanqian martial arts experience, and everything was as Xie Yuanqian expected. His talent as a time traveler was fully demonstrated in martial arts.
In just a few days of practice, you can condense your sense of energy, penetrate your meridians, and become a second-rate warrior. Fu Kaishan also admired it,
"If you had practiced martial arts ten years earlier, you would be a master of energy transformation by now!"
Xie Yuanqian was also heartbroken. Who could have imagined this? After traveling to the world of cultivating immortals and cultivating immortality for 30 years, he discovered that all my talents are in martial arts. Now I can only sigh,
"This may be life."
So after practicing like this for another week, Xie Yuanqian also thanked him and left.
Today, Xie Yuanqian is already a first-class master. Of course, this is only in theory. He has never experienced actual combat training either during his Qi training period or his martial arts training period. If he really fights, he will definitely not be as powerful as a first-class master.
Xie Yuanqian still has so many spirit stones left. He estimates that he can go to some more martial arts schools to study, but he has no plans to learn new martial arts.
He wanted to marry, have children and start a family here.
ah? ! This thought jumps too fast.
Didn't you just say that this is a novice village and that the Yu Country is going to be in war or something? how? Are you not afraid now?
Afraid, of course. But is it useful?
In this short half-month of martial arts training, Xie Yuanqian understood one truth, that is:
There are limits to human life!
so,
For God's sake, I'll just lie down right here!
In fact, it can be said that Xie Yuanqian and the curator Fu Kaishan really realized the realm of knowing destiny during the learning and exchange process.
Fu Kaishan is also a man with a story. He has been in the world for 20 years and has experienced all kinds of ups and downs. He has seen too many people and things that came to an abrupt end. He told Xie Yuanqian:
Birds that can't fly high can't think too much. You have to keep flapping your wings to go farther and see more scenery.
Although Xie Yuanqian is not a Taoist, he is a person who knows how to stop losses in time. The biggest lesson he has ever learned was that he had practiced hard for 30 years and achieved nothing. At that time, he just thought too much.
He is always having sex with something that is bitter first and then sweet, and it is a blockbuster thing, so he should always enjoy it!
If you have wine today, you will be drunk today. If you are worried tomorrow, just put it aside!
This is what a perfect life should be like!
You are thinking about this and that, you are already in the extraordinary world, where is there any absolutely safe place and support for you to rely on?
Only living every day happily is the real life!
Life! Do you understand! ?
The first thing Xie Yuanqian did after leaving the martial arts school and realizing great enlightenment was to rent a shop in the market and prepare to do some business. His idea was:
Bulk up your wallet first, and then think about the rest.
With Blue Star Technology as his backing, the first business he wanted to get was selling novels.
Yes, Xie Yuanqian also decided to sell novels in this small town where immortals and mortals are mixed after careful consideration.
First of all, this business cannot be disputed with local forces, otherwise it will not be possible at all.
Secondly, this transaction must be replicable and cannot be related to cultivating immortals, otherwise it will be coveted by others.
Last but not least, this deal must have a selling point, and isn’t the novel the biggest selling point?
In the world of cultivating immortals, the people's entertainment methods are actually suppressed by the special situation of cultivating immortals. This is also the fundamental reason why the dishes in other worlds are not as diverse as those in Blue Star.
Although there are legends and stories in other worlds, they are all real people and have no imagination at all. And Xie Yuanqian will bring whimsical and unique historical novels that are widely circulated in Blue Star to the masses of people in other worlds.
Why choose historical fiction? Isn’t it okay to write novels about cultivating immortals or fantasy novels?
Because Xie Yuanqian can't remember, there are thousands of chapters in immortality novels and fantasy novels, and he can only remember a few famous scenes.
What about thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi? Don’t bully young people into poverty.
How can I hold the sun and the moon in my hands and pick the stars? There is no one like me in the world.
Can these things be explained?
A story without logic has no vitality and is naturally unattractive.
Historical novels are much easier to tell. After all, he can tell a few things about Blue Star's well-known stories from China and foreign countries to ancient and modern times.
Even if it is this kind of business, Xie Yuanqian cannot do it by himself. Why?
He has to be a boss, an author, and a storyteller, and there are so many trivial matters before and after opening a store, even if Xie Yuanqian is really a beast, he will be exhausted to death.
So, he approached Lin Xiangdao. He had no choice but to know a few people in the local area.
"Oh! Who is this? What are you doing here today?"
Seeing Xie Yuanqian coming to his door, Lin Xiangdao still remembered what he had been teased about before, so he was naturally a little unhappy.
Xie Yuanqian had something to ask for, so he naturally wanted to apologize for what happened before.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I have offended many things in the past, so this golden rooster independence is my apology. And I came here today because I have a business I want to discuss with you. I wonder if you are interested?"
This golden chicken has been on sale independently for some time. Lin Xiangdao has also tasted it and it tastes very good.
But what surprised him even more was:
Hey! There are actually people who want to do the business I asked about! I want to see what kind of medicine you sell in this gourd?
"Please tell me and listen."
Xie Yuanqian sold it out first.
"I have a story you've definitely never heard."
Bao asked Lin Xiangdao and was not happy when he heard this. What's the matter? Do you think the name I am asking about is in vain? Also a story that I have never heard of. If there is even a word in your story that I have never heard of, I, Lin Xiangdao, will recognize you as my father on the spot!
He said disdainfully,
"Don't talk nonsense, talk about business."
What Xie Yuanqian wants is his proud attitude, so that the story can become dramatic later.
"This is business, don't be in a hurry. You can tell me after you hear my story."
After that, Xie Yuanqian cleared his throat and began to tell a story he had prepared.
"Chaos is undivided, the sky and the earth are chaotic, and no one can see the vastness. Since Pangu broke through the Hongmeng, it has opened up the distinction between the clear and the turbid. It has led all living beings to look up to the benevolence and found that all things are good. If you want to know the origin of creation, you must read "Journey to the West" pass"."
…
"Look, Sun Wukong is about to kill the general in the Lingxiao Palace, and all the heavenly soldiers and generals are unbeatable, eh~!"
"If you want to know what happened next time, let's listen to the explanation!"
Xie Yuanqian deliberately stopped the story of Journey to the West in Havoc in Heaven, which made the spectators scratch their heads and scratch their heads. It was both enjoyable and uncomfortable.
"You should keep talking!"
"That's right!"
"Every acre is broken!!!"
…
These fierce calls for updates were also part of Xie Yuanqian's plan. He took a sip of water and continued to talk,
"If you still want to hear this story, you can come to me and listen to Yunxuan in a while. There will also be gifts for you! That's it for today. Thank you for your support!"
After he greeted him like this, all the spectators could only leave with regret, and only Lin Xiangdao and Xie Yuanqian were left here.
Lin Xiangdao was fascinated by the story of Journey to the West from the beginning. He had never heard of this story even if he asked about it, and judging from the news just now, this story definitely has a selling point.
"How's it going? Ask me about it? Is there a market for this story?"
Lin Xiangdao admired,
"That's so marketable! But why haven't I heard of Ting Yunxuan?"
Only then did Xie Yuanqian tell him his purpose of coming.
"I hear that Yunxuan is exactly the business I want to discuss with you."
Lin Xiangdao also understood,
"Do you want to partner with me?"
That's what Xie Yuanqian meant, but he just wanted to tell stories, and he would leave all the things like opening a store and recruiting people to Lin Xiangdao.
"That's right! I'll pay the principal, and Brother Lin can help me recruit people and promote it!"
Recruiting people is Lin Xiangdao's main business. He has been in this town for so many years and has accumulated so many connections, which finally came in handy today.
"Is this true?"
Of course Xie Yuanqian was asked by useful people.
"That's absolutely true, but I have certain requirements for choosing this person."
Lin Xiangdao said with guarantee,
"Feel free to ask for anything! I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Xie Yuanqian's requirements for employees are also very simple: they should be literate, able to draw, and articulate.
And most importantly, loyalty.
The first few are actually fine, but this last one is about knowing people but not knowing their hearts. How can Lin Xiangdao guarantee that the people he recruits will be loyal?
unless……
