Chapter 497: Handover

After leaving Yicheng, Chen Chen went to Shenglong City.
Shenglong City is only 20,000 miles away from Li Xianzong and Jin Shengzong, this distance will not take much time even if you don't take the teleportation array.
In this upper realm, after all, there are still a few who take the teleportation array when they go out. More middle and low-level cultivators choose to fly, unless they encounter important things, they will take a teleportation array.
So even if some distant cities can be reached by taking a few teleportation arrays, in fact, the connection between the city and the city is not close, or even cut off.
For example, Rising Dragon City, although it is a city under the Celestial Demon City, it is not closely related to the other cities of the Demon City, but is closer to the nearby cities.
However, due to its large background, the nearby cities are generally in a state of being bullied by Thanglong City.
...
After half a day, Chen Chen arrived before the gate of Shenglong City.
This city is more majestic and magnificent than other nearby cities, and even the monks who guard the city have a proud expression.
"My lord, what are you doing here in Thang Long City? If you have any needs, I can help you pass it on."
However, these monks who defended the city saw Chen Chen with a very respectful attitude.
Because Chen Chen was wearing the clothes of official disciples of the Sky Devil City, his status and status were vastly different from those of their peripheral disciples.
"I am Chen Chen, here to take over this Shenglong City."
Chen Shen Mikkong wasted time with these gatekeeper disciples, and immediately explained his identity.
Hearing Chen Chen's name, the monk guarding the city shuddered, and then he knelt down directly, and the other monks knelt down as well.
"It turned out to be Lord Chen Chen! The news that you are going to take over the city of Thang Long has long been passed, but I didn't expect you to be here so soon! I knew that..."
Then he quickly turned his head and glanced at a young monk behind him.
"Don't hurry to inform the city... Acting for the city lord!"
When he said this, the young monk quickly stood up and flew into the city in a panic.
There were a lot of passing monks stopping around, with curiosity and awe in their eyes.
...
About ten minutes later, the city gate suddenly opened wide, and hundreds of people walked out mightily, headed by a white-faced old man, dressed in black, with a shrewd look in his eyes.
"I'll wait to welcome the city lord!"
Hundreds of people shouted in unison, and they had to say it gave Chen Chen a lot of face.
"You are welcome, I actually prefer to be low-key."
The corner of Chen Chen's mouth was slightly raised, and he smiled unconsciously.
"Sir, let me go to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss the handover."
The white-faced old man smiled.
Chen Chen naturally did not refuse, so he entered the Shenglong City surrounded by hundreds of people.
As soon as he left, there was noisy surroundings.
"It turns out that he is Chen Chen! Ten disciples of the Lord of the Sky Devil!"
"Sure enough, a talented person!"
"Hehe, I became a disciple of the Lord of the Sky Demon City, and you will think I am a talent."
"Shhh, what nonsense!"
...
"My lord, this is the large and small account of Thang Long City, please have a look."
After entering the City Lord's Mansion, the white-faced old man handed a jade slip to Chen Chen.
Chen Chen was not polite, took it directly and started watching.
There are more than three hundred stores in Shenglong City, of which there are 100 directly under Shenglong City. If the total daily flow is converted into spirit crystals, there are about 50 spirit crystals, and the profit is about five spirit crystals.
The remaining 200-odd people make profits in the form of rent collection, and the profits also have five spirit crystals.
In general, Thang Long City makes a profit of ten spirit crystals a day.
Although it doesn't sound much, Chen Chen knows that this number is not small. Ten Lingjing a day means more than 3,000 Lingjing a year.
However, Jin Shengzong's entire sect reserve does not have a hundred spirit crystals. If you really want to calculate it, the profitability of Shenglongcheng is probably no less than that of Yicheng.
Backed by the great backer of Tianma City, it is really good to do business. No wonder Zhou Fu would rather pay the price of a city to go to his own backer.
"My lord, there are now 400 cultivators from the Devil City in Shenglong City. Among them, fifty are distracting cultivators. In addition to me, there are two cultivators who fit together.
Those of us control the city of Rising Dragon and hand in three thousand spirit crystals to the city of the devil every year. Although it is not as good as the cities in the north, we are still doing our best. "
The white-faced old man became sad as he talked, his eyes were red.
In order for the new city lord to better take over the city of Shenglong, his former city lord was directly transferred to other places by the above, which means that he could not stay in this city for long.
"Everyone has worked so hard. From now on, the income will be given to me directly, and there is no need to submit it to the Devil City."
Chen Chen said with a smile.
Regardless of the cost of raising monks, one can earn three thousand spiritual crystals a year. This is simply a hen who can lay spiritual crystals.
It's no wonder that neither the Heavenly Devil City, the Evil God Temple nor the Immortal League allowed Xiaozongmen to build cities at will. These benefits are still in their own hands.
"By the way, how about the benefits of the teleportation array in the city?" Chen Chen asked again.
Hearing this, the faces of the cultivators present couldn't help but change, and the eyes of the white-faced old man showed a panic.
Chen Chen smiled and didn't say a word. The teleportation array was not like selling a magic pill. There was a real thing there, so it was best to fake it.
"Uh, City Lord, this teleportation array consumes a lot of spirit stones, and our Shenglong City is not profitable."
After being quiet for a while, the white-faced old man said slightly cramped.
Chen Chen smiled upon seeing this, and said, "It doesn't matter if there are any problems. I won't hold them accountable for the past, as long as they work hard in the future."
All the monks breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and their expressions became relaxed.
Chen Chen studied management in his previous life. Although these monks are all elite, they are stinky younger brothers compared to him in business.
After reading the situation in Shenglong City, Chen Chen looked at the white-faced old man.
"No big problem, you can go now."
This straightforward remark made the white-faced old man quite embarrassed, but he soon reacted~EbookFREE.me~ after saying goodbye, turned around and left.
As soon as he left, everyone present seemed to have lost their backbone, and their faces gradually showed a sense of the future.
Seeing this, Chen Chen leaned on the seat and said in a flat tone: "There is a city more than 60,000 miles west of Shenglong City called Yicheng. I must have heard of it. This Yicheng is under the control of Danxiazong, although the background It’s not as big as ours, but the profit is not less than ours. Why do you say this?"
The monks were all frightened when they heard this.
You must know that Chen Chen is a disciple of the city lord of the Devil City, and what the lord handed over was everything from the city of Shenglong, including their wealth and life.
What do you mean by saying this now? Are you saying that they are incompetent?
Do you want to give them a good start?
But why bother, the status gap is too big, where can they dare to make any small calculations?
"The subordinates are incompetent!"
"I also hope that the city lord will forgive me! I will definitely work harder in the future! Striving for more profit!"
Each monk stretched out their hands to make sure, but Chen Chen shook his head and chuckled: "What is a hundred spirit crystal, I think it must be at least doubled."
"what!"
As soon as these words came out, all the cultivators present took a breath.
With more than one or two hundred spirit crystals, so many of them might be able to satisfy this new city owner by frugality.
But doubling...I can't do it if they die?
Is this asking them to sell themselves?
Thinking of this, the faces of all the monks collapsed, and they were afraid that their future life would be difficult for such a greedy city lord.
