Chapter 558

558 Lingyu’s plan

~~

At the thought of the huge benefits, many aristocrats were envious. Some aristocrats also wanted to imitate ye chen and build houses in their territories to sell.

However, the result was disappointing. No one bought the houses they built!

In the eyes of the commoners, these nobles were a group of vampires who ate people without spitting out their bones! What if they paid the money and bought the houses in the nobles ‘territories, and the nobles came up with some wicked idea to take back the houses? they would have no place to cry!

On the other hand, ye chen, Gu LAN, Gu Fei, and the others were different. They were all commoners and had earned a lot of money from the loans they had taken previously. They had already established a very high prestige. These commoners all believed that Gu LAN, Gu Fei, and the others would definitely not cheat them. They could rest assured buying from them!

Over 800,000 Shadow Gold was all they had, so why would they take the risk?

Just as ye Chen’s territory was being built on a large scale, Ling Yu completed the land merger in Yanyun sacred city. It was said that the purchase of the land alone had cost him more than seven billion Phantom Gold. About one-fifth of the entire territory in Yanyun sacred city was in his pocket.

After that, he hired a large group of people to plant the Tianyu Saint fruit. More than 20000 people worked in his land every day, and each of them could get 10 Shadow Gold coins a day. Planting Tianyu Saint fruit didn’t have any cultivation requirements. Even people with low cultivation could do it. Ten Shadow Gold was enough to make many people jealous. It was said that many people were fighting for that job.

In addition to growing the Tianyu Saint fruits on a large scale, he also began to purchase the corpses of soul beasts in large quantities. The corpses of soul beasts above the divine ocean realm were more expensive, but the corpses of soul beasts below the transcendent realm were relatively cheap. They were the best fertilizer for the Tianyu Saint fruits. It was said that anyone who was willing to bring a soul beast’s carcass below boundless stage out of the small Tian Yuan world and sell it to Ling Yu could spend a relatively small amount of money to buy a heaven and earth bag with an extremely large space from Ling Yu.

This was a blessing for the commoner groups. Under normal circumstances, they would form groups of six or seven people. This way, everyone would get the most money and the efficiency would be the highest. But now, they only needed to bring one or two people with them who were responsible for collecting the corpses of soul beasts within the transcendent stage to earn an extra income.

The Tianyu Saint fruit would grow very fast if it was cultivated with a special method and a large number of soul beast corpses as fertilizer. As there were too many people going in and out of the small Tian Yuan world, Ling Yu didn’t have to worry about not being able to collect soul beast corpses, so the Tianyu Saint fruit in his territory was growing at an astonishing rate.

There was a small hill not far from ye Chen’s territory. This was Ling Yu’s territory. There were many Tianyu Saint fruits planted on the hill. The Tianyu Saint fruits grew on a kind of green vine. Each one was about the size of a fist and emitted a sweet fragrance. Because the fruit had just been planted, it was still green. As time passed, it would turn dark purple, which meant it was ripe. However, some of the fruits would change. They would turn red like blood, or deep blue like the ocean.

The Tianyu Saint fruit that had mutated was usually priceless. However, out of thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of Tianyu Saint fruits, only one would mutate.

Ling Yu and his protective divine beast, Tianhai shenmi, appeared on the hill.

On the mountain path to the side, a group of hundreds of farmers hired by Ling Yu were dragging the corpses of Demon King, boundless stage, and transcendent stage soul beasts up and tossing them beside the Tianyu Saint fruits.

Soon, the Tianyu Saint fruit’s vines were like wild dogs that smelled meat. They grew from all directions and wrapped around the soul beasts ‘bodies. Their roots were like straws. They stabbed into the soul beasts’ bodies and crazily absorbed the nutrients. At the same time, their leaves would secrete a green mucus. When the mucus touched the soul beasts ‘bodies, the bodies would quickly melt and become fertilizer for the soil.

The large pile of soul beast corpses rapidly shrunk and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, finally leaving behind a pool of blood.

After absorbing the soul beasts ‘bodies, the fruits on the vines glowed even brighter.

I didn’t expect there to be so many soul beast corpses in Yanyun sacred city. If we keep this up, the first batch of Tianyu Saint fruits will ripen in less than six months. The deer-like Tianhai shenmi spoke in the human tongue. His face was still dignified and Holy, but a hint of hope and excitement flashed in his eyes.

Ling Yu smiled and said, ” there’s no need for six months. Three months is enough. This is a new species that my uncle risked his life to bring back from the war Emperor’s realm. Its life force is even stronger, and it’s easier for it to produce blood flame and purple sea level Tianyu Saint fruits.

it’s easier to produce blood flame and purple sea level Tianyu Saint fruits, ” Tianhai shenmi muttered as he smacked his lips. He looked a little greedy.

“I was worried that we wouldn’t be able to collect enough spirit beast corpses in the Yanyun sacred city. Speaking of which, we should thank that man called ye chen. If not for him, there wouldn’t be so many civilians going to the small Tian Yuan world, and the ripening of the first batch of Tianyu Saint fruits would have been delayed by at least two years! I’d like to see what kind of expressions eldest and second eldest will have at the next Clan Gathering.” Ling Yu’s eyes were cold. He then looked at ye Chen’s territory, which was being built in the distance, and said with some interest, ” if you have the time, I’d like to meet this ye chen!

“He’s just a commoner,” Amami had a disinterested look on his face.

although this person is a commoner and his cultivation might not be very high, he is definitely a talent! Ling Yu had already asked his men to investigate ye chen. To his surprise, ye chen had come from Dongchuan continent and started to make a fortune in the small Tian Yuan world. He had saved up a large sum of money through loans and then bought and operated his territory. In just one month, he had accumulated hundreds of millions of Phantom Gold, giving the aristocrats of Yanyun sacred city a hard time. Just these few things alone were something that many commoners could not achieve in a few lifetimes.

Ling Yu looked at ye Chen’s territory and narrowed his eyes. I’ve done some calculations. By the time he manages this territory, he’ll probably be able to earn at least a few billion Shadow Gold.

“A few billion?” Even someone like Amami, who was used to seeing riches and honor, couldn’t help but draw in a breath of cold air. He said in disbelief, ” you can get a few billion from such a piece of lousy territory? ”

“Not bad!”

“Then why don’t we do it? Isn’t it just building a few courtyards? can’t we just have the Imperial City send some craftsmen over?” Amami’s expression was solemn, but his eyes were shining brightly as he said, ” the territory we own is at least a hundred times larger than his, right?

“It’s not as easy as you say. Even if we build a house, we can’t sell it. Because we don’t have the same prestige as them among the commoners!” Ling Yu smiled and shook his head. He didn’t feel too indignant. so, we should just plant the Tianyu Saint fruit. He’s indirectly helping us!

Ling Yu turned back to look at the commoners who were transporting the spirit beasts ‘corpses. He saw that the commoners were all looking at ye Chen’s territory. As they looked at the houses and courtyards, their eyes shone with a burning desire. If they were given eight hundred thousand Shadow Gold, they would definitely buy one without hesitation!

In terms of the speed of making money, ye chen was much faster than him, a disciple of the Ling family. He might be able to gain something if he interacted more with ye chen. Although ye chen had taken a small piece of his territory, it was not enough to make the two of them enemies.

There were no eternal friends or enemies, only eternal interests. If there were enough interests, even an enemy could become a friend at any time!

This was the Ling family’s principle in handling matters. Otherwise, how could the Ling family have earned such a strong foundation? Many people said that the Ling family had assets worth hundreds of billions of Shadow Gold, and their businesses were spread across more than ten divine dynasties. However, that was only on the surface. Outsiders only saw the things that were floating on the surface. As the third-in-line successor of the Ling family, Ling Yu knew how powerful the Ling family was. He wanted to go from the third-in-line successor to the first-in-line successor, and even become the head of the family! He wanted to control the entire Ling family!

Before that, he had to use all of his power to achieve some amazing achievements!

If possible, he might be able to take ye chen under his wing and use him!

Ling Yu looked into the distance, his heart filled with pride as thoughts passed through his mind.

Ye chen was patrolling the territory. The affairs in the territory were gradually getting on track.

Many of the houses that had yet to be built had already been booked in advance. The funds in ye Chen’s hands rapidly expanded. In addition to the money ye chen earned from alchemy, he had more than five hundred million Phantom Gold in his hands. In the entire Yanyun sacred city, it was considered one of the best. Of course, it was still incomparable to the rich and powerful descendants like Ling Yu.

Seeing that ye chen was earning more and more, Yi Yan and Xu Qing’s eyes were red with envy. Their hearts were filled with jealousy and hatred. Ye chen was earning money too quickly. If they let ye chen continue like this, how terrible would it be?

“Chenyuan mountain, how can we deal with that brat ye chen?” Yi Yan asked in a slightly angry tone.

Yiyuan mountain thought for a while and suddenly revealed a vicious expression,”Master Yi Yan, as far as I know, that brat ye chen has a bunch of clansmen in the eastern continent.”

“What are the ranks of his clansmen?” Yi Yan raised his eyebrows and asked with a cold glint in his eyes.

most of them have very low cultivation bases. The highest is only at transcendent stage.

“A bunch of people who haven’t even reached the transcendent stage, why would that kid care?” Yi Yan said indifferently. Clansmen like that were nothing but a bunch of burdens. So what if he killed them?

From Yi Yan’s point of view, he didn’t care even if his clansmen with low cultivation were killed. Many of his clansmen were still living in poverty in the shanty town, and he had never cared about them.

“Sir Yi Yan, you might not know, but that kid cares a lot about his clansmen. We can use his clansmen to threaten him!” Yiyuan mountain said with certainty.
