Chapter 306 0305: Formal Meeting
"Master Su."
"Mr. Cheng."
In the backyard of the Chamber of Commerce, under the arrangement of Chen Kaishan, Su Ze followed him into the Immortal City alone with a gift. It was the first time that Cheng Zongyang and Su Ze met each other.
After both sides quickly looked at each other, they sat down in the living room at Chen Kaishan's signal.
Next, after the servants served the tea, Chen Kaishan used the excuse that he had something to deal with and left the two of them to talk alone. He also evacuated all the guards and servants in the backyard and strictly forbade anyone to approach.
In the courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce and at the entrance of the alley, there are many large boxes stored.
"Mr. Cheng."
Su Ze was initially amazed at Cheng Zongyang's age, but his doubts about Cheng Zongyang's ability had long since subsided, and he said in a very polite tone:
"This time, to show our sincerity, our Su family has collected five times the amount of materials in the booklet. Some materials are still on the way, and some have been stored outside the city and can be transported in at any time. If there is a subsequent need, Master Cheng can continue to transport them with just a word.
In addition, 5,000 skilled craftsmen specializing in building houses were hired and are also working outside.
If necessary, we can also arrange to enter the fairy city to assist in the construction at any time, so as to help Cheng Dongjia complete the transformation of the fairy city as soon as possible. Of course, all the wages and expenses of these workers will be paid by our Su family, and the fairy city does not need to pay a single silver or copper. If the manpower is not enough, we can continue to dispatch them.
Finally, the Su family and the Daliang royal family offered another 10 million taels of silver and 20 plants of century-old medicinal herbs. Of course, all of the above were gifts for meeting, not exchanges for other purposes. "
Cheng Zongyang listened to the other party's words and secretly sighed in his heart at the wealth of the Su family and the royal family.
There are so many things, and they are given away at will. No one can refuse this gift.
Cheng Zongyang naturally would not refuse. He immediately said with a smile: "Such a valuable gift makes me feel a little uneasy. I also know your purpose. I guess your second uncle has reached the point where he would rather not make a gift, right?"
Su Ze was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Cheng Zongyang knew so much about his second uncle's situation.
This matter was extremely secretive, and even Emperor Liang was not aware of the fact that Second Uncle's power was only consumed and could not be replenished. However, when thinking of Cheng Zongyang's identity as an immortal cultivator, it seemed that all this was reasonable. Immortal cultivators always knew a lot more things, and Second Uncle's situation was something that only immortal cultivators could help solve.
Su Ze no longer concealed that the purpose of his visit was exactly for this. He nodded and said, "Yes. So this time I came here to ask for three places for my second uncle and the royal family to go to the world of immortal cultivation. I wonder what the specific rules and requirements are?"
Cheng Zongyang had expected this. Su Ze had put so much thought into this, and his purpose was self-evident. He smiled slightly:
"Of course there are conditions for going to the Immortal Cultivation World. I believe you have heard some of them. Specifically, there are three points.
First, I have to follow my schedule and cannot go there in advance. But normally, I should go there once every six months or a year. Second, one place is worth 10 million taels of materials, and these materials must be useful for warriors or related to immortals. I believe that the royal family and various aristocratic families should have found the remains of the immortals in the past, right? "
Su Ze did not deny this and nodded slightly.
Cheng Zongyang went on to say, "The third point is that only those who have reached the Great Perfection of the Innate Realm or those who have cultivated to the third level of Qi training can go there. This condition is also for the sake of those who go there. If you reach this level of cultivation, whether you live in the mortal area or the immortal cultivator area, you will not be bullied or killed at will."
Su Ze pondered for a moment and said, "Boss Cheng, I understand all three of your conditions. Regarding the materials worth 10 million taels, my Su family and the royal family have no problem. The third point is also met by the cultivation level. But I wonder if there is any flexibility regarding the time requirement for the first point? My second uncle's situation is special, and his strength cannot be replenished by himself. If a solution cannot be found in time, I am afraid that his realm..."
Cheng Zongyang glanced at him and shook his head slightly: "I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious. The monster that landed on Tianduan Mountain was called the Fiery Sun Bird. Your second uncle swallowed the monster pill and broke through the innate realm to the extraordinary realm. He did not die in the monster pill and the backlash of the monster's residual soul. It can be said that he was very lucky. Let me first tell you about the three ways to break through the innate realm and enter the extraordinary realm..."
Next, Cheng Zongyang spent some time explaining to Su Ze these three breakthrough methods, as well as their respective advantages and disadvantages.
After all, the other party gave such a generous gift and was full of sincerity, so it was naturally convenient and more confident for him to learn more from me.
The more gifts you give, the less blame you will get. When you ask someone for a favor or visit them to ask questions, if you give them a lot of gifts, no matter how many questions you ask, the host will not have any complaints. Otherwise, if you don't give them much but ask a lot of questions, no one will be happy.
After Su Ze heard this, he finally understood his uncle's situation. He immediately bowed and said:
"Thank you, Mr. Cheng, for clearing up my confusion. As I just said, I need three places. One for the Su family and two for the royal family. In addition, I also need something that can help my second uncle replenish his internal strength at this stage. Mr. Cheng just said that, so I guess there must be a way to solve it?"
Cheng Zongyang smiled slightly: "I have the demon pills that can improve my strength. In addition, practicing in the Immortal City will gradually restore my strength."
Hearing this, Su Ze finally felt relieved.
Cheng Zongyang then asked, "I am somewhat interested in the matter of the Fiery Sun Bird. It is said that it was killed by your father and many innate masters, and its body eventually fell into the hands of the royal family?"
Su Ze nodded: "Yes, the body of the Fiery Sun Bird you mentioned is indeed kept in the royal family. If Mr. Cheng needs it, I will send a message immediately, and I believe the royal family will send someone to deliver it."
"There's no need to rush." Cheng Zongyang pondered for a moment and continued, "The body of the Fiery Sun Bird is indeed valuable to me, but whether it can offset the value of a demon pill remains to be seen."
Su Ze's heart tightened when he heard this: "What does Mr. Cheng mean?"
Cheng Zongyang looked into Su Ze's eyes and said, "If it were an ordinary demon pill, it wouldn't be worth much, but your second uncle swallowed the demon pill of a third-level demon beast, so the number of demon pills required cannot be solved by just one.
It's like a pool of water. Your second uncle swallowed a third-level demon pill, which determined the size of the pool. To replenish the water in the pool, more external water sources are naturally needed. I don't need to explain this, you can figure it out, right?"
Upon hearing this, Su Ze nodded silently.
Cheng Zongyang continued, "Even though the Fiery Sun Bird was severely damaged, its uncontrollable fire power caused three years of drought in Xiangyang, Linchuan and other places, and countless people died, leaving thousands of miles of barren land. There is no need to worry about the human factors.
In the end, you paid the price of losing a large number of innate masters, and the Fiery Sun Bird was unable to absorb external spiritual energy to restore its strength, so it died after its internal strength was exhausted by you. Otherwise, even if you had ten times more people, you would never be able to kill even a wounded third-level monster.
Just like your second uncle, if he continues to be besieged by a large number of innate masters and has no external power to absorb and replenish, the result will be the same. You can also understand this, right?"
Cheng Zongyang knew all this, in addition to his own analysis based on the information he had obtained before, the rest was also learned when he took Yu Wenlin to the capital city. After all, Dayi Chamber of Commerce had this intelligence capability.
Su Ze nodded again, knowing that Cheng Zongyang was explaining his second uncle's situation to him in a simple way.
It's good to talk to smart people, there's no need to explain in such detail, and then he smiled and said: "So, if your second uncle wants to recover, swallowing and refining the demon pill is the fastest way to recover, and it is also a way to improve his cultivation. But the prerequisite is that he needs to cultivate immortal skills to help him refine the demon pill quickly. As for absorbing external spiritual energy and converting it into spiritual power in the body, it only restores strength and cannot improve strength."
"I understand." Su Ze bowed his hands in thanks: "Master Cheng, please tell me everything you need me to prepare, so that I can let my second uncle know and let the Su family and the royal family prepare."
Cheng Zongyang nodded: "The technique is selected according to your uncle's qualifications, and we will talk about this later. The second is the demon pill. If you want to quickly replenish the power in your body, you can absorb it even without the technique, but the power converted is not much. It is estimated to be only 50%, and the rest can only be wasted. Therefore, at least two first-level demon pills are needed, which can restore your uncle's strength faster than spiritual energy. As for the demon pill, there are two types.
One is a processed pure demon pill, which is very valuable. It will not have any effects or dangers after taking it.
This kind of demon pill is worth 15,000 spirit stones. In the Cheng's Chamber of Commerce, these 100 taels of gold can be exchanged for one spirit stone. Therefore, these two first-level demon pills are worth 30,000 spirit stones and can be exchanged for 3 million taels of gold.
Of course, I guess the royal family doesn't have that much in reserve. So, we can use materials to offset or sign a loan agreement.
The second type is the unprocessed demon pill, just like the demon pill your second uncle swallowed, which not only contains the residual soul of the demon beast, but also demonic energy and evil spirit. The danger and side effects of swallowing are extremely high. This type of demon pill is cheaper, one is worth 200 spirit stones. Two are only 400 spirit stones, equivalent to 40,000 taels of gold. "
In the world of cultivating immortals, a first-level demon pill is only worth a few dozen to a hundred spirit stones. But at that time, a first-level demon pill in the Yuzhongshi market was worth 10,000 points each.
Of course, there are differences. The demon pills sold at the market were the purest, with only the demon essence remaining.
This type of demon pill does not have the residual soul of the demon beast, nor does it have the various evil spirits and demonic spirits that affect people's minds. No matter how much you take, there are no side effects. This is the best thing for those who have entered the Tao through martial arts and have made breakthroughs by taking demon pills. It also has no effect on cultivation.
If it is a demon pill from the world of immortal cultivation, eating one can easily lead to backlash and death, so the value is differentiated.
If Su Ze could come up with three million taels of gold, he wouldn't mind exchanging two for him. Three million taels of gold was enough to restore the many minerals in the wilderness world. These minerals could be used to earn points in return. It was also another form of investment in disguise.
Su Ze smiled bitterly and said, "If we have to choose, we should choose the best. But three million taels of gold, this is really shocking. My Su family can still come up with a few hundred thousand taels with a little effort. But these three million are really impossible to come up with, not even the royal family can. But I will write a letter to my second uncle to ask for clarification, and he will make the final decision."
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said, "You decide. There are still four or five months before we go to the Immortal Cultivation World, so there is plenty of time."
Su Ze nodded, and then continued to listen to Cheng Zongyang talk about what his second uncle would need next.
When all was said, Cheng Zongyang also told Su Ze in detail what he wanted to know during this meeting. Finally, he took out a few books out of thin air and showed off his skills in front of Su Ze.
"I re-wrote this based on everything I learned in the world of immortal cultivation. I'm giving it to you."
"Thank you, Mr. Cheng!" Su Ze was extremely happy. He never thought that there would be such a return gift later.
He took it and looked at it briefly.
——"Yufeng Immortal City Immortal Cultivation Manual 100 Solutions"
——《Cultivation Knowledge from Beginner to Mastery》
——《Questions that Those Who Enter Taoism Through Martial Arts Must Know》
——"Common sense of spiritual practice, from the beginning to the end"
——"Yufeng Xiancheng Code Third Edition"
Looking at the four thin and one thick booklets, just by looking at the names, he was very curious about what was written inside. He wanted to open it immediately and take a look.
But the occasion was not right now, so I suppressed my curiosity.
Next, Su Ze also learned from Cheng Zongyang that in the future development of the Immortal City, each family would be allowed to enter the Immortal City and set up a base.
Su Ze also received a hundred pieces of spirit-testing paper from Cheng Zongyang, as well as a borrowed spirit-testing stone. He also felt that the gift he gave was right, and the information and items he received were worth it.
After saying goodbye and leaving, Cheng Zongyang began to arrange for Li Lu to receive the meeting gift from Su Ze outside.
Similarly, Su Ze became busy in the following days.
He first sent a message to his second uncle, informing him of the detailed situation and allowing him to choose what kind of demon pill he needed.
Afterwards, he returned to Yangzhou Prefecture and discussed matters with Emperor Liang in person. He then personally brought with him the sealed corpse of the Fiery Sun Bird and various selected supplies.
Finally, he took two princes with the upper third-grade cultivation of the Five Spirit Bones who were selected after their qualifications were tested to live in the Immortal City, preparing to set up a "mansion" for the royal family and the Su family, making preparations for going to the immortal world later.
It can also be regarded as a stable base of power in Xiancheng in the future.
At the same time, Su Ze also contacted the major families to "attract customer resources" for Cheng Zongyang, and at the same time, it was also to reduce the pressure of internal strife for the royal family.
Various forces have been surrounding the Immortal City, but without an introduction, they can't get in. Therefore, they showed great interest in what Su Ze told them and his suggestion to personally introduce them.
After all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any aristocratic family.
Therefore, under Su Ze's suggestion, each family prepared a heavy gift and waited for Su Ze to finish his work. Su Ze was waiting for his second uncle to recover the last place in Linchuan Prefecture.
As time goes by, all infrastructure work in Xiancheng is proceeding in an orderly manner. With a large amount of materials and the assistance of thousands of professional craftsmen, the speed of "shantytown renovation" in Xiancheng is getting faster and faster.
In the north of the city, where the renovation is in full swing, the builders have basically completed the renovation, and the remaining carpenters are doing the decoration. The east of the city is also halfway done.
With tens of thousands of workers working in three shifts and sufficient materials, the speed was naturally very fast.
As three months passed, Su Ze, who had finished all his work, brought his second uncle, the corpse of the Fiery Sun Bird, and a continuous stream of supply trucks to the vicinity of the Immortal City.
Also coming along were the other seventeen aristocratic families in Daliang, as well as the gifts they brought personally, as well as the expenses and supplies for traveling to the world of immortal cultivation.
In three months, the area around Xiancheng has changed a lot, with all kinds of sheds, open spaces, and supplies.
With the arrival of Su Ze and the seventeen powerful families, the surrounding area became even more crowded, and finally they had to continue to develop towards the flat areas to create more land.
