Chapter 253: Leasing spiritual land for fifty years (please subscribe)
Seeing Wei Tu’s refusal, Tao Fangde thought for a while and came up with a more suitable method.
“The Tao family has been in the Zama tribe for many years, and the spiritual talismans they have used are somewhat lacking. If Senior Wei doesn’t mind it, the Tao family is willing to buy some of the talismans in the hands of Senior Wei.”
Talismans are different from elixirs. Although they are not necessary for cultivation, they are also hard currency in the world of immortality. They can be stored for a long time. Even if you buy too much, you don’t have to worry about losing money.
Especially for veteran talisman masters like Wei Tu, the talismans they produce are of stable quality and powerful, so you don’t have to worry about future sales.
It’s just that the sales time will be longer.
Slow return of funds.
The Tao family has just enough time to sell off the talismans.
Even if they lose money, as long as the Tao family succeeds in getting on Wei Tu's thick leg, everything will be worth it.
“Fulu?” Wei Tu raised his eyebrows and understood what Tao Fangde meant.
However, this time he did not refuse Tao Fangde. Purchasing talismans and offering spiritual stones are two different things. The former is a normal business transaction.
The two began to discuss the specific matters regarding the purchase of talismans.
From the conversation, Tao Fangde was shocked when he learned that Wei Tu still had a batch of third-level low-grade talismans in his hand.
After all, it was only a few years since Wei Tu was promoted to Jin Dan Zhenjun.
“No wonder Senior Wei rejected the Tao family’s offer of spiritual stones and had the confidence to rent the third-level spiritual land of Fenshan Department on his own...”
Tao Fangde was secretly stunned.
After learning about this, Tao Fangde made up his mind again and took out a batch of spiritual stones from the Tao family's treasures to purchase Wei Tu's talismans.
This time, he bought the talisman not only to please Wei Tu, but also to buy a third-level talisman to arm the Tao family monks.
No matter how much wealth you have, if you don’t have the means to protect yourself, you are just a lamb to the slaughter.
Tao Fangde has a deep understanding of this.
The deal was concluded quickly.
Tao Fangde, on behalf of the Tao family, purchased a batch of third-level and second-level talismans from Wei Tu with twenty-three thousand spirit stones.
Of course, Wei Tu did not sell it at the original price, but gave the Tao family a friendly price, which was a 20% discount.
…
After selling this batch of talismans.
The financial crisis in Weitu's hands has been greatly alleviated.
—In front of Tao Fangde, he did not tell lies. In terms of his wealth, he is indeed "slightly wealthy" among the Jindan Zhenjun at the same level.
It’s just that the talismans, magic weapons and other spiritual objects in my hand have not been sold yet.
On the spiritual stone, it’s just not enough.
However, with the 23,000 spiritual stones from the Tao family, Wei Tu was not in a hurry and went to sell some of his "stolen goods".
He was in the Zama tribe and began to wait patiently for a reply from the high priest Tia.
It is worth mentioning that.
During this period, Wei Xianer and Wei Tu discussed and decided to take the high priest of Diya as their teacher.
Hence, in terms of relationship, Wei Tu and High Priest Dia went one step further and were considered to have a close relationship.
…
In the blink of an eye, several months passed.
On this day, Wei Tu and the high priest Dia went hand in hand to the Fenshan Department.
There are only three or four tribes between Fenshan Tribe and Zama Tribe, and they are not far apart.
“Mu Feng has accepted four disciples in total. The eldest disciple, Qi Chen, had high hopes and was an excellent candidate to become the high priest, but he died in an accident a hundred years ago.”
"The remaining three disciples, except for the younger fourth disciple "Yan Yu", the remaining two are incompetent... If they make trouble, they can be easily dealt with by the strength of the guard priest."
While on the way, High Priest Tia introduced to Wei Tu the insiders of Fenshan Department.
The Fenshan Tribe, without a high priest, would have difficulty guarding the third-level spiritual land "Yanfenshan" and the corresponding interests within the royal court of the Yingding Tribe.
Therefore, Fenshan tribe urgently needs to find a suitable "Golden Elixir strongman" from the outside world to temporarily take over the position of high priest, or to succeed the high priest.
But personal interests and tribal interests are sometimes not consistent.
The legacy of a tribe is too huge.
Therefore, what the High Priest of Dia said at this moment was intended to remind Wei Tu to be careful about the successors of the High Priest of the Fenshan Tribe.
“Yan Yu?” Wei Tu pondered for a moment and wrote down the name.
Except for the three major tribes of the Kangju people, all the other tribesmen, from priests and princes to common people, all have no surnames.
Has only one name.
And Yanyu, judging from his name alone, is different from ordinary Kangju people.
Wei Tu inquired and found out that "Mu Feng", the high priest of the Fenshan tribe, was said to be the earliest. He was not from "Kangju", but had another origin.
—Kang State, there were not only Kangju people, but also "Cangnan people" whose customs were similar to those of Zheng State.
In other words, except for the people of special tribes such as "Kangju people", the people under the rule of the Seven Kingdoms Righteous Alliance are collectively called "Cangnan people".
Cang is the Cang of Da Cang Xiu Xian Realm.
South refers to the four inland countries, located directly south of the five demonic sects and the three border countries.
…
Half a day later.
Fenshan Department, Yanfenshan.
Inside the Pagoda, on the fifth floor.
“I heard that Priest Wei is from the State of Zheng. I wonder if that’s the case?” The old-looking High Priest Mu Feng, who was sitting at the main seat, glanced at Wei Tu, who was sitting on the side seat, and asked. After the words fell, many priests in the temple all stared at Wei Tu, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
This is the first time they have seen people from a foreign country. Moreover, this person is also a powerful high priest.
“What Priest Mu Feng said is true, Wei is indeed from the State of Zheng and is a monk of the State of Zheng.”
Weitu nodded and did not deny the matter.
If he was alone and arrived in the land of Kang, it would not be difficult to disguise himself as a "Kangju person". However, with the Tao family and the "Wei family" around, it was inconvenient for him to pretend.
Besides, the benefits to him of pretending to be a Kangju person are also very limited.
There is no need to do this.
Hearing Wei Tu's answer, High Priest Mu Feng laughed a few times and said: "Speaking of which, I was the same as Priest Wei back then. They were both Cangnan people. But after being accepted by the master as a disciple... I gradually forgot the customs of the Cangnan people. Already…”
“I don’t understand now, I am from Cangnan or Kangju.”
As he spoke, High Priest Mu Feng looked at the priests of the Fenshan Tribe under His Highness.
The priests looked at each other.
How dare they say: High Priest Mu Feng is not from Kangju?
“Following the local customs, the high priest has lived in the Fenshan tribe for hundreds of years, so he should be from Kangju.”
In the temple, several priests responded.
Looking at this scene.
Wei Tu immediately understood that this was High Priest Mu Feng paving the way for him to prevent anyone from using his identity to make trouble after he became the leader of the Fenshan Tribe.
"Yan Yu, this is the spiritual contract for renting Yanfen Mountain. You act as the master and hand it over to Priest Wei." Seeing the reactions of the cultivators, High Priest Mu Feng nodded with satisfaction. He took out a piece of yellowed papyrus from his sleeve. , handed it to a girl next to him.
This girl is plump and beautiful, with a slightly dark complexion. She is wearing a leopard coat and short skirt. Her body exudes a strong beauty that is different from the women of Cangnan people.
"Yes, Master." Yan Yu was stunned for a moment, took the spirit deed, walked down the hall steps, and walked in the direction of Wei Tu.
"Your two senior brothers have low qualifications and have no hope of becoming high priests in their lives. You are different. You have the blood of the Witch God... As long as you get the protection of the priests and have enough time to grow, you can break through to the realm of high priests..."
“After your master’s life is over, you will get close to the priests.”
High Priest Mu Feng preached.
By asking Yan Yu to hand over the leasehold deed to Yanfenshan, he hinted to Wei Tu and the priests of the Fenshan tribe that Yan Yu was his successor.
This hint was clearly understood by all the cultivators in the hall.
The two priests of Fenshan tribe sitting in the front row of the temple saw this scene:
One of them had a look of disappointment on his face, while the other's face was calm, but his increasingly sharp eyes proved that his state of mind was not calm.
After a high priest dies, regardless of the property on his body, his rich connections during his lifetime are a considerable legacy.
At this moment, these inheritances were passed on to Yan Yu, the fourth disciple, by High Priest Mu Feng in full view of the public.
“Thank you so much, Miss Yan.”
Wei Tu took the spirit deed from Yan Yu and thanked him.
After finishing speaking, he opened the spiritual contract and carefully examined the contents and treaty inside the spiritual contract.
The treaty was similar to what he said when he met the high priest of Dia, and it was not harsh.
In addition to the corresponding rental fees, the Fenshan Department only had three requirements for him.
1. During the lease period, the Fenshan Department must be provided with appropriate shelter.
2. The period of each lease renewal shall not be less than fifty years.
Three, we must not deplete the lake to catch fish, and wreak havoc on the spiritual veins of Yanfen Mountain, a third-level spiritual land.
The three requirements were all within Wei Tu's expectations, and he was not surprised by them.
The first and third requirements are nothing to say. They are almost the necessary terms for leasing the Fenshan tribe’s spiritual land.
The second requirement.
You can figure it out after a little thought.
Fifty years happened to be the time when the Kangju people’s “Holy Spring Meeting” was held.
During this period, if Wei Tu has no intention of becoming the high priest of the Burning Mountain Tribe...then he needs to make way for other priests.
When approaching the Holy Spring Meeting, there will be foreign monks or Kangju priests looking for weak tribes and becoming the high priest of that tribe, thereby gaining the opportunity to bathe in the holy spring within the Holy Spring Meeting.
At that time.
The position of high priest is extremely popular.
“High Priest Mu Feng, the rental fee for renting Yanfenshan for fifty years is too high. Wei has limited financial resources…”
Wei Tu looked troubled and cried.
The province is the province, the flowers are the flowers.
He has strong financial resources, but that does not mean that he will be taken advantage of without bargaining.
The price quoted by the Fenshan Department to him was somewhat artificially high.
“If the priest is short of money, he can pay me in installments to the Burning Mountain Department.”
Hearing this, High Priest Mu Feng stroked his beard and said with a smile.
He is not worried about Wei Tu defaulting on his debt.
The Fenshan tribe is weak, but it does not mean that the royal court of the Yingding tribe is weak.
The royal court will not intervene in tribal civil wars.
But when dealing with outsiders, the royal court will not show any mercy.
"In this way, I will make the decision for the tribe. I will reduce the priest's five thousand spirit stones and give them to the priest. How about three spiritual arts?" High Priest Mu Feng thought that he still had a request for Wei. After thinking for a moment, he added this sentence. .
