The Xiuxian family can't float

Chapter 316 Ling Youdao sits in Guanglu Island, and the reform of Fangshi begins!
When the successor came, Ling Youdao and others returned to Cangli Island.

Ling Yuansheng ordered Ling Youdao to replace Ling Dingshan in Guanglufang City, and Ling Youxian to replace Ling Dingyi in Fufeng Island.

Then Ling Dingyi and Ling Dingshan were appointed to be in charge of the trade between the Floating Cloud Islands and the three surrounding islands.

Originally, only the Baiyun Islands and the Liuyun Islands had a lot of trade, but because the auctions and trade fairs held by the Cangliling Sect were too successful.Attracted the attention of the other two archipelagos in the Meteorite Sea.

Therefore, the communication between the other two archipelagos and the Liuyun Islands gradually increased, so the Ling family opened up a channel to the two archipelagos.

Later, Ling Yuansheng asked Ling Dingzong to manage the Shangong Hall.

Ling Dingzong once presided over the family affairs for a long time instead of him, and he knows all the family affairs by heart.

Ling Youdao rushed to Guanglufang City immediately after receiving the order. Ling Dingshan, who guards Guanglufang City, was overjoyed when he received the news.

On the day he came here, Ling Dingshan went out of the market to greet him in person.

"Third nephew, I can leave when you come, that's great."

Hearing this, Ling Youdao chuckled, "What's the matter? The second uncle doesn't feel comfortable living here?"

"It's not comfortable, but it's too boring here."

Ling Dingshan was not a "duty" person in the first place, he liked to go out and wander around, but he was trapped in a small market, he was already bored to death.

"By the way, third nephew, what task did your grandfather arrange for me this time?"

Ling Dingshan stared at Ling Youdao closely, looking a little nervous.

"Grandpa asked you and Second Aunt to be responsible for the trade between the Floating Cloud Islands and the surrounding islands. This task is very suitable for you, Second Uncle."

Ling Dingshan heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately laughed.

"This is what the elders should do. I will leave it to you, the third nephew, and I will go first, the second uncle."

After saying that, Ling Dingshan walked towards the pier on the island with his sword.

Seeing this, Ling Youdao could only shake his head with a wry smile, and then walked into Guanglufang City surrounded by several deacons.

There are several shops in Guanglufang City that Cangli Ling directly manages, plus the auction house in the center of Fangshi, so Ling arranged several deacons in Fangshi.

He just came to Fangshi and didn't know about the changes in these years, so he needed to go around first to understand the situation inside Fangshi.

The battle of Ling Youdao and his party was not small, and they instantly attracted the attention of the monks on the street and in the shop.

The Cangliling clan was powerful, so these people naturally didn't dare to provoke them, so they gave way to a passage far away.

It took a full hour to observe in a circle.

He nodded in satisfaction, "Well, you have taken care of Fangshi well."

Ling Youdao knew his second uncle very well. During the guarding of Guanglufang City, he definitely belonged to the kind who didn't care about things. All kinds of general affairs in Guanglufang City were handled by these deacons in front of him.

He is not Ling Dingshan, since he came to Guanglufang City, he must do something.

Because of this, he will inspect all kinds of shops in Guanglufang City at the first time.

Hearing Ling Youdao's praise, several deacons around were beaming with joy.

One by one said again and again: "We are the children of the Cangliling family, so naturally we must manage the family business well."

"Ah."

Ling Youdao was very satisfied with what they said, and nodded his head up and down.

Later, under the leadership of several people, Ling Youdao went to the place where he lived.

Then he waved his hand and motioned for several people to leave.

"Elder, we leave."

Several deacons left the room and walked for a while before someone couldn't help asking: "By the way, what do you think of Elder Youdao?"

Someone hesitated and said: "I inspected the situation in Fangshi when I first came here. It seems that Elder Youdao will not delegate power to us like Elder Dingshan did, and he will retreat and ignore world affairs."

When Ling Dingshan was in charge of Guanglufang City, he seldom asked about the affairs of the city. The deacons representing the Ling family did their best. In Fangshi, their words represented the meaning of the Cangli Ling family.

Just at this time, the oldest among them suddenly said: "Okay, when we encounter things in the future, we must stop arbitrarily making decisions."

Hearing this, several people nodded seriously.

One of the things that the superiors dislike the most is that the people under them make decisions for themselves, even immortal cultivators are not immune.

In the room, Ling Youdao sat cross-legged on a futon.

On the surface, he seemed to be looking at the scenery outside the house, but he was really thinking about a problem, and the changes around him didn't catch his attention at all.

Or maybe he sensed it, and just didn't care about those things.

"Guanglufang City is my Cangli Ling family's treasury. The more prosperous the city is, the more spiritual stones the family will earn."

"But I always feel that Guanglufang City is not very good!"

Ling Youdao muttered to himself, the business model of Guanglufang City is far from that of other cities like Wufang City, not to mention compared with that of the earth world.

To put it bluntly, if the business model of the earth world is used as the standard, then the business model of Guanglufang City is like the original business model, as if a newborn is learning to crawl.

After thinking for a while, he finally gritted his teeth.

"It's fine if I shouldn't guard Guanglufang City. Since it's my turn to guard here, then I will change Guanglufang City."

Ling Youdao secretly made up his mind.

"However, the earth world is fundamentally different from this world. Many concepts are not the same. They are suitable for the original earth world, but not necessarily suitable for this world where there are immortal cultivators."

"Looks like I have to take a good look at it."

Ling Youdao kept recalling the Guan business model of the earth world in his mind, and at the same time thinking about the business model of the world of cultivating immortals.

Time passed in a hurry, and three days passed in a blink of an eye.

After some thinking, Ling Youdao finally had more future development plans in his mind.

After a while, after confirming that it was correct, he ordered people to immediately summon the deacons on the island to his house.

After a stick of incense, all the deacons filed in.

"I'll wait to see the elder."

Ling Youdao nodded, "Okay, you all find a place to sit down."

"Thank you, Elder, for giving me your seat."

After all, several deacons each found a futon and sat down cross-legged.

Ling Youdao slowly expressed his idea to several deacons, who bowed their heads in thought.

After a while, Ling Youdao asked suddenly: "What do you think?"

But the oldest among them asked: "Dare to ask the elders, what is a brand?"

"Brand? Uh, it's similar to the family emblem, uh, you don't have to care about that."

Hearing this, several people seem to understand but not understand.

"I'll wait for the elders."

Ling Youdao is an elder of the Cangliling clan, so even if he wants to discuss with someone, he should consult with other elders in the clan.

Calling a few people and asking their opinions is to give a few people face, and they have no right to refute.

Several people also knew this very well, so they immediately expressed their opinion to Ling Youdao.

Seeing this, Ling Youdao nodded in satisfaction and motioned for them to leave.

Afterwards, Ling Youdao wrote out his thoughts one by one and put them in an envelope.

He waved his big sleeve, and saw a flash of inspiration, and the red jade circled and danced in the air.

Ling Youdao waved to Hongyu, and Hongyu flew closer.

He raised the letter in his hand and said: "Hongyu, you send this letter back to Cangli Island, give it to my grandfather, and then bring back his old man's reply."

Then I saw Hongyu holding the letter in her mouth.

"Gah!"

With a loud cry, he flapped his wings and quickly flew out of Guanglu Island, heading towards Cangli Island.

Ling Youdao returned to his room, waiting for Ling Yuansheng's reply, and then carefully perfected his reforms.

Hongyu flew back to Qingcang Mountain, and the disciples of the Ling family guarding the mountain gate knew that this was Ling Youdao's spirit beast, which was comparable to a monk in the middle stage of foundation establishment, so naturally they didn't dare to stop him, so they immediately let Hongyu in.

After Hongyu entered the residence of the Ling family, it went straight to the meeting hall halfway up the mountain.

Ling Yuansheng sat cross-legged on a futon at the top of the hall, suddenly raised his head, his eyes seemed to pass through everything, and saw Hongyu flying towards the hall.

"Youdao asked it to deliver a letter to the old man?"

Hongyu is too big to enter the meeting hall at all, so it has to hover outside the meeting hall.

"Gah!"

It seemed to remind Ling Yuansheng that the moment Hongyu cried, the letter in his mouth flew into the meeting hall.

Ling Yuansheng caught the incoming letter, opened it and read it slowly.

"Let him try it first."

As he said that, the letter in Ling Yuansheng's hand fell silent.

Immediately, he waved his sleeves, and on the table in front of him was more paper for writing letters and a black brush for writing.

Ling Yuansheng didn't hold a pen either, he just kept talking there, but saw the black brush started to write on the letter paper by itself.

"Eloquent" wrote a whole sheet, Ling Yuansheng picked up the letter paper to look at it, and saw that the ink on it was not dry yet.

With a stroke of his hand, the ink on the letter paper was completely dry, as if it had been written for a few days, not like it was written just a moment ago.

Ling Yuansheng stuffed the letter into the previous envelope, and then threw it out casually.

He saw that letter quickly flew out of the meeting hall and headed towards Hongyu.

Seeing this scene, Hongyu drew a beautiful arc in the air, grabbed the flying letter in her mouth, spread her wings and flew out of Cangli Island, heading towards Guanglufang City, Guanglu Island.

Cangli Ling's residence in Guanglu Island is not in Fangshi, but outside Fangshi, so Hongyu went straight to Ling Youdao's location.

"Gah!"

Hearing the cry, Ling Youdao walked out quickly and took the letter from Hongyu's mouth.

"Hongyu, I won't take you back into the spirit beast bag, but you must remember that you must not make trouble in the market, and you must not harm the people on the island."

"Gah!"

"By the way, don't stay too far away from Guanglu Island, it's best to stay in the nearby waters."

Hongyu's spiritual intelligence is very high, and she nodded to Ling Youdao.

Seeing this, Ling Youdao patted it on the head, signaling it to "play".

Hongyu spread her wings and flew away, Ling Youdao immediately opened Ling Yuansheng's letter and read it.

"Grandpa really agreed to my reform."

Ling Youdao combined Ling Yuansheng's suggestion, plus his own new ideas these days, and finally formulated a reform plan.

Both Guangludaofang City and Baiyunfang City are backed by Jindan forces, so why does Baiyunfang City's influence radiate the entire northern section of the Thousand Islands Chain, and even have a certain influence further south?
The influence of Fangshi in Guanglu is only limited to the Liuyun Islands, and its prestige has only expanded to the entire meteorite sea area in recent years.

Of course, there are issues of historical status and the issue of Baiyunmen's stronger strength.

But Ling Youdao still thinks that Guanglufang City is too complicated, there is no "sign" that is the "brand" of the earth world, and its reputation is not obvious, so no one knows it.

Therefore, Ling Youdao intends to establish a benchmark for Guanglufang City, and the Cangli Ling family will continue to create around this benchmark in the future, so as to increase their influence.

As soon as people mention it, they will know that the person standing behind it is the Cangliling family.

Of course, in addition to the reform in this general direction, there are many small reforms.

Such as downsizing, business planning, etc.

After all, Guanglufang City was once managed by ten families, and now it is all owned by the Cangliling family.

Then the old set of "administration" will no longer be suitable for Guanglufang City under the control of Cangli Ling.

Even if it is not changed today, it will be changed in the future, but Ling Youdao first proposed it.

Ling Yuansheng called all the deacons of the Ling family on the island, told them all about his reform plan, and then let them implement it.

Ling Dingyi and Ling Dingshan also came. The trade they manage is closely related to Guanglufang City, so they also need to understand Ling Youdao's reforms.

According to Ling Youdao's intention, Guanglufang City will expand outwards, and part of the shops near the auction site will be demolished, so as to expand the auction site.

The auction house has to be demolished and rebuilt, and the newly built auction house has to be bigger. The situation like last time must not happen again.

Because the auction house was too small, the auction could only be held in the square outside the auction house. If this kind of thing got out, the Cang Li Ling family would become a joke.

The newly built auction house has five floors. The center of the first floor is a hall surrounded by shops, which mainly sell various first-order treasures, and a basement floor.

The second floor is divided into three parts, namely the VIP room, a shop, and a small auction house. The shop mainly sells second-order treasures, and the small auction house is the venue for various small auctions.

And the entire third floor is a whole large auction room, which is divided into upper and lower floors. The lower floor is an area for ordinary bidders, and the upper floor is a circle of VIP rooms, with a total of 120 VIP rooms in one circle.

There is a high platform in the center of the auction house. According to Ling Youdao's intention, Ling Yuancheng arranged a projection array. When displaying the auction items in the future, instead of showing the actual objects, the auction items will be projected onto the high platform through the array.

In this way, a circle of 360-degree bidders can appreciate the auction item.

As for the fourth floor, it was lifted in the air and connected to the third floor through several tall pillars.

The area of ​​the fourth floor is much smaller than that of the third floor, and its main function is "office". The high-level monks in Fangshi are located here, and the fourth floor also has a direct passage to the basement floor.

If the building of the auction house is the center of Fangshi, then the fourth floor is the center of the building, where the center of the Fangshi formation is protected.

The so-called negative floor is to dig out a layer of space under the building of the auction house, which is located one hundred feet underground. The approximate scope of this layer of space is the auction house and its nearby squares. Its main function is to establish a black market.

There is inevitably a black market in every Xiuxianfang city. Since it cannot be avoided, then control it.
