Chapter 1136: Chapter 625_2 Chapter 1136: Chapter 625_2 Chen Mobai: “City Lord Sui is somewhat underutilized in Red Sandstone City!”
To this, Sui Shanfu merely responded with a humble smile.
This was Chen Mobai’s second time experiencing the exceptional talent of Immortal Gate cultivators. The first time was with the City Lord of Yu Wood City, Wen Ping; indeed, anyone who could become the lord of a city–at least in terms of capabilities and wisdom–was fully accomplished.
Chen Mobai merely hinted slightly, and Sui Shanfu immediately thought of a strategy that matched his expectations perfectly.
No wonder he was chosen by the Immortal Gate to take over the mess in Red Sandstone City after Qin Baipeng.
After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Mobai called Yan Bingxuan.
Upon hearing that it was his affair, Yan Bingxuan did not hesitate and immediately booked a ticket to return.
As a Foundation Establishment practitioner who graduated from Repairing Heaven Institute, Yan Bingxuan’s entrepreneurial venture back home naturally received the best conditions from Red Sandstone City.
He obtained not only the ten-year mining rights of the Qingmu Evil Cave on Danxia Mountain at the lowest price, but also the land granted for the construction of his factory.
The capital for starting the Evil Qi energy company partly came from loans from the Immortal Gate Bank and partly from private financing from his good friend Chen Mobai.
Of course, since the company was nominally Yan Bingxuan’s, she still put in all her savings to take shares and apply for the business license.
“Are you not afraid that you’ll go bankrupt if it fails?”
Although Chen Mobai had spent one hundred million Good Deed Points to open a Void Blind Box, he still had more than enough funds in his account to support Yan Bingxuan’s company.
But Yan Bingxuan insisted on investing her own money, to which Chen Mobai jokingly asked.
“With you, the emperor of Red Sandstone City, backing me up, I can’t think of any reason why I would lose money.”
Yan Bingxuan answered seriously, and upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but smile slightly.
“I’m just a mere councilor of the Kaiyuan Hall. I dare not call myself an emperor. Everything about the company must be done legally and in compliance. Moreover, let me tell you the truth, the reason I asked you to start this company is just to prepare for the subsequent research on artificially synthesizing seventy-two types of Earthly Fiendish Qi.”
Chen Mobai took out the Sword Destruction Collection from Zuo Gong. He told Yan Bingxuan that he planned to master all the Sword Sha formations in it, then merge them into a grand Sword Diagram to demonstrate a higher level of his Sword Dao!
This meant that the company would surely be pumping money into research in the beginning and at best would break even–the profits wouldn’t be high.
“Anyway, with your support, even if the company goes bankrupt, you just have to take care of me,” Yan Bingxuan said, jokingly making a statement that touched Chen Mobai. He looked intently at the stunning beauty in front of him.
She was tall and today wore a white shirt which clung tightly across her chest, revealing an impressively firm and bold silhouette; it seemed as if the button might give way at any moment. Below, she wore a black business skirt, her creamy and radiant long legs matched the hemline, highlighting her fairness and glow.
Her face was still cold, but in the eyes that met Chen Mobai’s, there was an extra touch of tenderness invisible to others.
“Fine, if the company goes bankrupt, I’ll support you for a lifetime!”
Chen Mobai couldn’t help but respond, and Yan Bingxuan’s lips, which had been pursed, bloomed into an unprecedentedly beautiful smile.
If she who didn’t smile often suddenly did, it could look this beautiful.
Just as Chen Mobai was thinking this, a mountain breeze blew by. The two standing under the Azure Jadeite Sycamore Tree couldn’t help but look up, as a leaf of lush greenery fell.
Chen Mobai caught it and then dried it with his Pure Yang Spiritual Power before handing it to Yan Bingxuan.
“Consider it a Rank-4 Spirit Plant. I’ve inscribed a talisman on it just for you,” he said.
Yan Bingxuan took it and thanked him.
With the company of the stunning Yan Bingxuan, Chen Mobai experienced an unprecedented level of emotional fulfillment, to the point where even his cultivation was somewhat delayed.
He accompanied Yan Bingxuan to inspect the site for building the factory. With his influence, the land available for allocation by Red Sandstone City officials was naturally hers for the choosing.
The two ultimately chose the location nearest to the Qingmu Evil Cave, not only for convenience in material sourcing in the future but also because it was close to Danxia Mountain, which allowed the transmission of Rank-3 spiritual energy, thereby not delaying Yan Bingxuan’s cultivation.
Chen Mobai’s puppet factory was originally flawed in this respect, situated at the most remote area between Red Sandstone City and Yu Wood City; the place was large, but the highest grade of spiritual energy that could be transmitted there was only Rank-2.
If he hadn’t been using spirit stones, it’s likely that the puppet factory would have to shut down for three days to recharge after operating for just one day.
Nevertheless, it was precisely because of this that Chen Mobai was able to keep most of the output of his puppet factory a secret, circulating to the Immortal Gate market only enough talisman paper and talisman ink to match the annual cost of spiritual energy, while dumping the rest into the Eastern Wilderness.
Now, just from talisman paper alone, the shop at Little Nan Mountain brought Chen Mobai an annual income of five hundred thousand spirit stones.
Now that the talisman ink has also started selling, it can bring in an additional one hundred thousand spirit stones each year.
Adding on the spirit rice, spiritual wine, and so on produced at Little Nan Mountain, the big disciple’s current business target is already moving towards an annual income of one million spirit stones.
If not for the fact that most of the spirit rice from Little Nan Mountain was consumed internally by the Divine Wood Sect, Liu Wenbo could have reached the annual income goal of one million much earlier.
However, Chen Mobai has reached a stage where he no longer values spirit stones at all because, in the Eastern Wilderness, he’s reached a point where he can’t even use them all up.
Now, it’s only Zeng Woyou from the Alchemy Department who helps him refine Longevity Dew every year, which roughly consumes tens of thousands of his spirit stones.
In the future, with the addition of the Golden Crow Sun-Swallowing Elixir, this could increase to an annual cost of five hundred thousand spirit stones.
But for Chen Mobai, this was putting resources to good use.
After all, he didn’t dare to spend these spirit stones in Immortal Gate, so using them in the Eastern Wilderness was like promoting the local economy.
It’s said that owing to the fact that they help him refine elixirs annually, the cultivators of the Spirit Plant Department and Alchemy Department, as well as many families that cultivate medicinal fields under the Divine Wood Sect in the six countries, have all prospered.
Moreover, precisely because of this, any elixir Chen Mobai needed was met with full cooperation from all the major powers under the Divine Wood Sect, and no matter the cost, they would gather the various medicinal ingredients at the first opportunity for Zeng Woyou to start the refining process.
After running around the outskirts of Red Sandstone City with Yan Bingxuan for a month, the two finally settled all their affairs.
For the relevant mechanical equipment, naturally, they sought out their old acquaintance Zhou Tiangong. With Chen Mobai’s face, the chief engineer of the Tiangong Instrument Factory came personally to hear their requirements, helped design the equipment blueprints, and even conveniently finished the blueprints for the factory buildings matched to the equipment.
As for the Repairing Heaven Institute, the source of the Yuanqi system, they had to purchase related patents!
The geniuses of the Repairing Heaven Institute had long since researched methods for the artificial synthesis of all Earthly Fiendish Qi ever encountered in the Immortal Gate.
If Yan Bingxuan’s energy company wanted to synthesize Earthly Fiendish Qi artificially, they would definitely apply the successful research from the Repairing Heaven Institute.
With their level of expertise, they certainly couldn’t develop a new method from scratch.
Even if they could, it would be too much of a waste of time.
The thing Chen Mobai disliked most was wasting time.
The fees for the patents from the Repairing Heaven Institute could be purchased individually or in a bundle, but they were all very expensive!
Within the Immortal Gate, Chen Mobai was just about middle-class economically; to buy all the patents for artificial synthesis of Earthly Fiendish Qi was indeed beyond his means.
Having no other choice, he had to activate his own network!
Fortunately, as a Golden Core Master and being seen by the entire Immortal Gate as the future Sect Leader of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, they were all willing to give him this much face.
“Elder Yuanxu owns a company that has a package in its inventory with all patents related to the artificial synthesis of Earthly Fiendish Qi; you can lease it for a year’s trial use under a rental name, which will be one-tenth the price. After a year, you can renew it for another trial period and just keep renewing it. For this matter, you just need to speak to little Lou. He’s currently in charge of that storage.”
After hearing Fu Borong’s advice, Chen Mobai immediately called Lou Fengcheng, someone he hadn’t been in touch with for a long time.
Fortunately, he wasn’t a person of power and hadn’t deleted Lou Fengcheng’s number just because he had achieved Core Formation.
However, when he made the call, it took a long time before it was answered.
