Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 300 0299: Meeting to formulate new rules
"Is your gang leader in there?" Cheng Zongyang signaled the guards at the door to stand up and asked as he walked in.

The guard leading the way quickly responded, "They are all here. The gang leader said you were coming and asked us to go in and notify them to come out to greet you, but you didn't let us. I..."

"No problem." Cheng Zongyang smiled slightly, "Practice martial arts well, there will be plenty of opportunities to earn resources for practice in the future."

"Yes! Boss!" The guard bowed excitedly.

Cheng Zongyang waved his hand and continued walking inside.

Entering the meeting room, Cheng Zongyang saw that the lights were on, just like daytime. A dozen people were waiting in the room, chatting, and suddenly saw someone coming from outside. They all looked excited, stood up and walked towards the door, bowed and shouted, "Boss!"

Cheng Zongyang glanced at the crowd and saw familiar faces. Zhou Zhendong, Cheng Zongwen, Li Lu, Li Xuejin, Zhang Chuqi, Li Cungang, Li Yihe... These were the core members of the Cheng family and the Tianduan Gang.

"Okay, everyone is blocking the door, how can I get in?" Cheng Zongyang said with a smile.

When everyone heard this, they all laughed and made way for him and stood on both sides.

Cheng Zongyang looked at the crowd, feeling deeply moved. These people were his capable assistants, and the growing strength of the Cheng family and the Tianduan Gang was inseparable from their efforts. Otherwise, he, a hands-off boss, would not have had so much time to do his own things.

Cheng Zongyang came to the main seat and sat down, and then everyone else took their seats.

"I've been away for more than ten days, and the changes in the Immortal City are still very obvious. I also came back from Tianduan Village, and I am also very satisfied with the situation in Tianduan Village. Mr. Li, thank you for your help."

Cheng Zongyang saluted Li Xuejin with a fist.

"Boss, you're too polite. We all do this to make the Tianduan Gang better. It's our duty." Li Xuejin quickly bowed in response.

Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly, and then said: "When I came back this time, I immediately arranged a new formation. This formation can release spiritual energy, which means that we can practice in the Immortal City in the future."

Everyone listened quietly. Although they were happy, they did not dare to interrupt Cheng Zongyang.

They were naturally aware that the existence of spiritual energy and the ability to cultivate it meant that some of them could also practice cultivation.

You can practice even without going to the immortal world!

"That's right. Just as you thought, you can practice in the future. You can practice in the Immortal City before you reach the foundation building stage. I will arrange for someone to test your qualifications later. Of course, this is a matter for the future. Let me first talk about what needs to be done."

Cheng Zongyang's expression also became serious, and he said: "I won't ask about the development of the Tianduan Gang. The best explanation is that everything is progressing steadily. So next, because I can practice, I will make some changes to the Tianduan Gang."

This time, Li Xuejin, who reacted the fastest, immediately took out the special charcoal pencil and blank booklet to learn how to use Cheng Zongyang.

Cheng Zongyang glanced at him, ignored him, and continued:

"First, the halls of the Tianduan Gang need to be changed. The existing halls will remain unchanged, but a new hall, the Xianwu Hall, will be added. This hall will only recruit disciples who have become immortal cultivators in the gang. Its responsibilities will be to manage and handle the affairs of the immortal cultivators in the city in the future, and to supervise the behavior of the immortal cultivators in the Immortal City.

As for the existing Zhenwu Hall, it will continue to target ordinary people and warriors. In this way, when people of corresponding status cause trouble, the disciples of the corresponding hall will handle it. "

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

"Secondly." Seeing everyone nodding in agreement, Cheng Zongyang continued, "Add a new salary system. Ordinary disciples, warrior disciples, and immortal disciples, the latter three will have different salaries based on their cultivation. It's not just silver and gold, but also spirit crystals and spirit stones. These spirit crystals and spirit stones were already in the original booklet, and I believe you have all seen them, so I won't go into detail here. The detailed content will be shown to you in the booklet later."

"third……"

Cheng Zongyang explained the contents of the new system that had been drafted previously. He described the settlement and home purchase, identity system, etc. in simple and straightforward words so that everyone present could understand them.

Although the new content is not much, it is all aimed at the attitudes towards the immortal cultivators who will appear in the city in the future, as well as the innate masters.

More importantly, many things in the Immortal City were managed and restricted in a new way, making the management of the Tianduan Gang more subdivided and enhancing the Tianduan Gang's management capabilities over the Immortal City.

After Cheng Zongyang finished talking about his reform plan, he waited for their questions.

But except for Li Xuejin who was still recording the last content, the others were listening in deep thought.

A lot of systems have been added, but they don’t have many problems, simply because they haven’t thought about them in detail.

After waiting for a while, Cheng Zongyang saw that everyone was thinking with their heads down, so he looked at Li Xuejin and asked, "Did you write down everything you just said?"

Li Xuejin immediately cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Boss."

Cheng Zongyang nodded and said, "Then you should talk to them again later and brainstorm. Discuss what I proposed and then show me the new content after your discussion."

"Yes, boss!" Li Xuejin agreed immediately.

Cheng Zongyang continued, "Next, the Cheng Chamber of Commerce should be established. Zongwen, Zhang Zeyu."

He looked at two of them at the lower left.

"Boss!" The two men took a step forward and bowed at the same time.

"How are you learning the Chamber of Commerce's operating model?"

Cheng Zongwen looked at Zhang Zeyu, who motioned for Cheng Zongwen to speak first. Cheng Zongwen then said:
"Boss, we already understand the overall operation mode of the Chamber of Commerce, and we also know the basic management methods of each part. As long as we find an experienced manager, we can get started quickly."

"So it can be deployed at any time?" Cheng Zongyang asked.

"Yes." Cheng Zongwen said. "The relevant business departments have been listed. I have found some candidates for shopkeepers in the county and other counties, and they can be deployed at any time."

As he spoke, he took out a thin booklet from his arms and handed it to Cheng Zongyang.

Cheng Zongyang took it and started reading it.

It indeed listed the structure of the Chamber of Commerce in detail. According to some ideas he had once told Cheng Zongwen, it was divided into elixirs, skills, banks, exotic beasts, acquisitions, mission bounties, and auctions.

These are not only aimed at ordinary people, but also warriors and cultivators.

Although some things will overlap with the Dayi Chamber of Commerce, it will not have any impact. The purpose of the Dayi Chamber of Commerce is to sell goods in all aspects of life, which are things that the Cheng Chamber of Commerce does not do.

"Very good." After reading it, Cheng Zongyang was very satisfied with Cheng Zongwen's thorough work and nodded, "Okay. From today on, the Cheng Chamber of Commerce will be established. The elixir shop will be incorporated into the chamber of commerce and will no longer be set up separately. In addition to the existing martial arts elixirs, the immortality elixirs used by cultivators will be added later.

Your subdivision is very good. Not only elixirs, but also medicines are subdivided. The exercises are further subdivided, adding immortal cultivation exercises to distinguish them from martial arts exercises. I can provide them if someone needs them in the future." Next, Cheng Zongyang continued to supplement and subdivide these parts.

Exotic beasts are divided into acquisition and cultivation. Acquisition means purchasing all valuable items.

The task rewards were to release tasks such as martial arts elixirs, wild rice, and medicinal herb planting. He handed the booklet he had written before to Cheng Zongwen, asking him to refer to it and then subdivide it.

As for auctions, Cheng Zongwen did not write much about this. After all, he had never been involved in it, and the Dayi Chamber of Commerce did not have an auction house. But he also wrote about it in the booklet, including the operation method, auction direction, etc. It was enough for Cheng Zongwen to refer to.

Finally, there is the money house.

The importance of money houses is self-evident, so the operation of money houses was also explained in front of everyone.

First, his bank not only has gold and silver, but more importantly, it has spiritual crystals and spiritual stones. This is the top priority for the future of the Immortal City. But there is no spiritual mine to be mined in the martial arts world, and he is the one who supplies it.

Secondly, this also involves contractual lending, which is no longer a simple loan, and the amount of spiritual crystals or spiritual stones lent out will not be large. Instead, something needs to be pledged as collateral, and if it cannot be repaid, the soul will return to the wilderness. This method involves his life span, so it must be taken seriously.

The third is to involve the acquisition and sale of assets. To borrow spirit crystals and spirit stones, these are needed as collateral.

If the other party cannot repay the debt, the assets can be sold as collateral, and the repayment can be made by converting the gold, silver and spirit stones and crystals into a conversion ratio. If the repayment is still not possible, the soul will return to the wilderness. This is much easier to accept than dying directly if the repayment is not made.

If you want it to operate for a long time, you need to be "humanized".

The only drawback is that if he pays back the loan, his three days of life will be gone. Therefore, he also set a minimum and maximum loan amount, time, and interest rate, so that people can hardly pay back the loan and find no reason.

The fourth is the universal card of the martial arts world. This is similar to a savings card. However, this requires a very complex "technological model" and is currently just a concept. In the future, if a "payment card" can be made in the fairy city, everyone can use it in life and commodity transactions by touching cards or "swiping cards" with magic tools. The future will be extremely convenient.

If it expands to gold and silver and uses them in this "digital" way in the future, even if there is no real gold and silver in the future due to excessive collection of gold and silver, the price and credit system will not collapse with the endorsement of the Immortal City.

This will take time, and he will also start researching. Or he can customize it through the system owner of the technological plane. According to the formations and instrument principles of the immortal world, he can customize the "immortal technology" suitable for this world.

Cheng Zongyang spent a quarter of an hour explaining his ideas in detail, and also asked everyone to brainstorm and give opinions or suggestions.

Cheng Zongwen asked someone to bring paper and pen to record the situation on the spot.

In the end, Cheng Zongyang turned the meeting into a discussion. After brainstorming about the bank's ideas, Cheng Zongwen wrote them down, and Cheng Zongyang also discussed the new and revised systems of the Tianduan Gang.

Thus, three or four hours passed while everyone was discussing.

During this period, Li Xuejin also had people serve tea, water and snacks, and then continued to establish one system after another.

When all these matters were dealt with, Cheng Zongyang looked at the still excited crowd and said, "One last thing. I should go to the Xiuxian world again in half a year. But next time I go, I will bring two people to help me deal with some things there."

Now, everyone was worried.

It would be a lie to say that I don't want to go. Although the Yufeng Fairy City is now also a place for cultivating immortals, it is the world of cultivating immortals, so naturally I want to go and take a look.

But no one mentioned it, and they all looked at Cheng Zongyang with burning eyes. That look seemed to be saying "choose me", "choose me to go".

Cheng Zongyang laughed: "When the Immortal City is completely stable in the future, you will all have a chance. But the people I want to bring with me are there to help me do things.

Before I came back, I reached a cooperation with some local people to buy their things. So I need someone to help me take care of it. ”

Now, everyone's eyes almost unanimously turned to where Li Yihe was.

In terms of martial arts, everyone present could suppress the other party with one hand, but in terms of business, Li Yihe could suppress them with one hand.

It's nothing. The high efficiency of the gambling houses, brothels, markets, black markets, and shops of the Tianduan Gang, which make a lot of money every day, are all created by Li Yihe. The restaurants, inns, and pharmacies of the Cheng family were also created by Li Yihe.

So, after hearing Cheng Zongyang's last sentence, they all knew that one of them was Li Yihe.

Cheng Zongyang's eyes also fell on Li Yihe. The latter met Cheng Zongyang's gaze, immediately understood, took a step forward, and bowed, saying: "Follow the boss's arrangements."

Cheng Zongyang nodded: "Don't worry, someone will come to protect you."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Cungang and asked, "How long will it take for you to reach Great Consummation?"

Li Cungang's heart was agitated. How could he not understand that he was being allowed to pass? He immediately took a step forward and said, "Boss, I think taking two more Qi Gathering Pills will be enough."

Cheng Zongyang nodded: "Okay. I will test your aptitude later. In the next six months, you should try your best to break through to the Great Perfection of the Innate Realm. When you get there, I will give you a book on cultivating immortals. If you practice according to the book, it will not be a problem to embark on the path of transcendence."

"Thank you for your cultivation!" Li Cungang knelt on one knee in gratitude and said, "I will definitely protect Shopkeeper Li!"

Cheng Zongyang nodded, then looked at Li Yihe: "Has your cultivation reached the eighth level after this medicinal bath?"

Li Yihe also bowed gratefully and said, "Yes."

Cheng Zongyang said: "It is because of the many external affairs that your advancement speed has been delayed. Otherwise, according to the time, you would have been at least a seventh-grade now."

"Boss, you are too serious!" Li Yihe said quickly, "Things have their priorities. Martial arts can be practiced at any time, but the things you have told us to do are the most important. If we delay, we will miss out on important things."

Cheng Zongyang said nothing more, took out the spirit-testing paper and spirit-testing stone, and said to everyone: "This time, I will also test the aptitude of those among you who haven't been tested yet. You have all read the booklet about spirit roots and spirit bones, so I won't say more. Who hasn't been tested yet?"

He had tested some people before, but forgot who had not yet been tested.

"I will." Li Xuejin laughed. "I was delayed by something before. Let's see this time."

Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly.

After a while, the result of Li Xuejin's qualifications came out.

One spiritual bone and three spiritual roots are considered average.

"No wonder I'm so slow in learning martial arts, my aptitude is so poor." Li Xuejin smiled bitterly. But then he was happy: "If that's the case, why not give up martial arts and cultivate immortality?"
