Chapter 450: Cultural Invasion, Jiushan Reform

In the side hall, Uncle Pang and others were carefully examining their new Tongjian.

The ones with the lowest cultivation among them are at the Nascent Soul stage, and this Tongjian is just a magical tool at the Qi training and foundation building level.

But everyone's eyes were filled with curiosity, even amazement.

Although they had never seen a smartphone, none of them were fools. After listening to Madam Xuanhua's introduction, how could they not understand the special features of instruments like the Tongjian?
Not to mention the function of Tongjian, just the idea of ​​this magical instrument can be said to be unprecedented in the Xuanwei world.

There are actually two main functions of mysterious magical instruments and treasures: either they are helpful in fighting, or they can assist in cultivation.

There are magical instruments with other functions, but they are never valued.

No one has ever thought of making a magical instrument like the Tongjian.

If in the past, someone asked them to spend spirit stones to buy a magic weapon that could neither harm lives, nor protect the body to escape, nor speed up the speed of cultivation, they would just think that person was cheating.

However, looking at the Tongjian in front of them, they only had one answer in their minds:
buy!
Not only them, as Xiao Yuying said, any Xuanwei cultivator would probably find it difficult to resist the New Tongjian.

"The Tongjian is a magical instrument that has never been seen before in the Xuanwei world, and it has broad market prospects." After a long silence, Xiao Yuying asked first, "Could it be possible that these two applications can make more money?"

Uncle Pang nodded slightly, seeming to agree with Xiao Yuying's words.

Judging from his own experience, he found it hard to imagine how much benefit Tongjian could bring to the Jiushan Realm.

But Madam Xuanhua's words implied that these two applications could make more money than Tongjian itself...

This was really beyond his understanding.

Madam Xuanhua glanced at Zheng Fa, with a hint of admiration in her eyes:
"Just like before the new Tongjian came out, I didn't know that magic tools could be made in this way. If the headmaster hadn't designed these two applications, I wouldn't have thought that spirit stones could be earned in this way."

After saying that, she tapped Jiushan Mall.

A new interface popped up on the light curtain in mid-air.

A column of magical weapons and elixirs appeared in the interface.

They are arranged from top to bottom, with patterns on the left and text and numbers on the right.

The name, style, and price were all clear at a glance. Even though Uncle Pang had never seen similar magical instruments before, he immediately understood what this mall was.

"Zheng Fa opened the market in Tongjian?"

Uncle Pang said in surprise.

Zheng Fa secretly praised in his heart that this uncle was quite perceptive and his words were quite sharp:
For Monk Xuanwei, the essence of this mall is an online market.

Madam Xuanhua also nodded and said, "According to the Sect Leader's idea, in the future, all cultivators in the Hundred Immortals Alliance and even the entire Xuanwei Realm will be able to purchase elixirs and magical instruments through the Jiushan Mall."

"Buy? How do I get the stuff after I buy it... Oh, the Shenxiao battleship!" Uncle Pang was puzzled at first, but then he realized, "The Shenxiao battleship can deliver goods!"

As expected, this uncle-master was the one who was most familiar with practical matters among the previous supreme masters of Jiushan Sect, and he could even see the foundation of the mall's operation at a glance.

Zheng Fa has been thinking about the online shopping mall for a long time.

But without the Shenxiao battleship and a low-cost logistics system, this idea would be a castle in the air.

Now that Zheng Fa has made great progress, the Tongjian has been perfected, and the logistics system is running well, everything is ready.

Uncle Pang murmured in a low voice: "In this way, every user of Tongjian will be a customer of our Jiushan Market. If everyone in Xuanwei Realm has one Tongjian, then... this mall will be able to include all the cultivators in Xuanwei Realm. It will be the largest market in Xuanwei Realm!"

Not only him, but everyone in the palace immediately realized why Madam Xuanhua attached so much importance to these two applications.

The Jiushan Shopping Mall has freed the market from geographical restrictions. As long as you have a Tongjian, you can go shopping.

It is conceivable how huge the market that Jiushanjie will have in the future.

Elder Qingmu Zongxiong looked at Zheng Fa suddenly.

"With so many customers, shouldn't we be able to sell as many pills as we can make?"

This inference is actually very obvious, but his tone is full of disbelief.

Zheng Fa nodded at him.

Elder Xiong's breathing became three times heavier. As the grand elder of Qingmu Sect, he certainly understood the amount of spirit stones contained in these three words "Buchou Selling".

When he thought about the future prospects of the mall, his hands holding the Tongjian began to tremble.

“It’s not just about not having to worry about customers.”

Unexpectedly, Madam Xuanhua threw out another sentence.

"This mall can not only earn money from customers. The master plans to open this mall to other sects or independent cultivators to open shops."

"...Open a shop?" Elder Xiong murmured softly, then slapped his thigh and shouted, "Yes, we can also collect rent!"

The others also looked surprised.

With such a large market, how could Jiushan Mall not attract merchants?

The bulk of the income in the market comes from rental.

"This, this mall makes money from customers and also makes money from the store owners?" Uncle Pang stammered, "Eat from both ends?"

Uncle Pang is a little too sensitive...

The phrase "eating from both ends" sounds unpleasant.

It is obvious that Xuanwei will have no difficulty in doing business!
"I am not just doing this for the sake of making money, that is just a small matter." Zheng Fa explained, "What I value is that this mall can unite other cultivators."

Jiushan Mall is of great significance to the Jiushan world.

On the one hand, it can solve a hidden danger:
Nowadays, the technology in the Nine Mountains Realm has been constantly improving, and the output of various magical instruments and elixirs is increasing day by day.

This is of course a good thing.

But if production capacity is to be transformed into large amounts of wealth, or if excess returns are to be obtained, a market is needed.

The traditional markets of Baixian League have limited consumption capacity and are not convenient.

Although it can now meet the needs of the Nine Mountains Realm, considering the technological advancement of the Nine Mountains Sect, there will always be a day when it is not enough.

On the other hand, it is to unite people.

"Whether it's the Hundred Immortals Alliance or those Xuanwei cultivators in the future, if they can earn spirit stones in the Jiushan Mall, they will naturally be loyal to our Jiushan Sect." Zheng Fa said softly, "We can give up some unimportant industries to allow them to survive."

As the economy develops, business activities will inevitably become more complex.

Even with the Nine Chapter Calculation Array, it is impossible for the Jiushan Sect to control all the industries in its hands.

This model has too many disadvantages and the benefits are actually not high.

His current plan is for Jiushan Sect to control key areas and high-end industries, while opening up other industries to other cultivators.

With a platform like the mall to collect rent, Jiushan Sect will never have to worry about making a profit.

In addition, the biggest benefit of this method, as Zheng Fa said, is that it actually affects people's hearts and minds:

Monks are also human beings. What they are all about is nothing more than profit.

Once these merchants enter the Jiushan Sect's business system, they will naturally become like the Jiushan Sect.

In this way, talents are cultivated through high-investment education, talents increase commodity output through the scientific research system, commodities earn spiritual stones and other resources through Jiushan Mall, and these resources can cultivate more talents.

The three formed a cycle, and the development of Jiushan Sect was on the right track.

He was still thinking about everything about Jiushan Mall. When he came to his senses, he found something was wrong.

The side hall, which had been quiet just a moment ago, was now filled with noise and bustle.

He turned around and saw Senior Sister Zhang and Uncle Huang gathered together. Xiao Yuying and Xie Qingxue also gathered around them. They were talking to each other enthusiastically.

Zheng Fa walked quietly behind the four people and saw that they were holding Tongjian in their hands and browsing the Jiushan Mall, apparently selecting magical instruments.

"This magic weapon is beautiful!"

Xie Qingxue pointed at a jade hairpin and said.

"This was made by a female disciple of Tiangong Pavilion. She has good skills and some ingenuity." Madam Xuanhua thought for a while and introduced it. She glanced at Xie Qingxue again and said, "It should be quite suitable for you, Master Xie."

"Then I'll order one!" Xie Qingxue seemed to really like the hairpin and asked others, "Do you want one?"

Senior Sister Zhang shook her head.

Xiao Yuying hesitated for a while and said, "I'll buy one too. It's not expensive anyway, and I won't feel bad if it doesn't fit."

No, all of you are at least at the Nascent Soul stage, what’s the point of having a magic jade hairpin?

Besides, Xiao Yuying, are you the one who needs a hairpin?
Or is it that my senior sister Zhang is thrifty...

Senior sister?

Senior Sister Zhang lightly raised her jade finger and tapped on the Tongjian dozens of times. Her action could be summed up in two words: domineering!

"Master Zhang, why did you buy so many skirts?"

"Change them."

"...I remember that I have never seen you, Master Zhang, go to the market?"

"There are too many people in the market, it's troublesome."

"That's right!" Xie Qingxue nodded lightly, agreeing, "Whenever I go there, there's always a group of people surrounding me. I'm in Tianhe Sect, and I don't go there often either."

This was something Zheng Fa had not expected.

Indeed, with the identity of Senior Sister Zhang, when she went to Jiushan Market now, it was like a leader inspecting.

Others were uncomfortable, and she was even more uncomfortable.

What's more, she is extremely busy.

Xiao Yuying was also well-known, and probably had similar troubles. She buried her head in the mall, and said happily: "That's right, now that we have this mall, it's much more convenient."

Seeing how Sister Zhang and the other three were enjoying themselves, the prospects of this mall were better than he had imagined!

Zheng Fa looked at the others and saw Uncle Pang staring blankly at Uncle Huang with a complicated expression, wondering what he was thinking.

"Uncle Master?"

Uncle Pang seemed to be trying to hide something from someone, and whispered:
"How many years?" Zheng Fa was puzzled and asked in a voice transmission: "How many years?"

"Mr. Huang, you haven't laughed like this in years."

There was a hint of nostalgia in Uncle Pang's tone.

Zheng Fa raised his head and looked at Uncle Huang, who was standing next to Sister Zhang, also chattering while picking out clothes.

Listening to what they said, it seemed like they were saying that the master and the apprentice were going to buy the same skirt and wear it together.

Just as Uncle Pang said, Uncle Huang had a very bright smile on his face when he was picking clothes.

In all his years in Jiushan Sect, he had never seen Uncle Huang smile like this.

Zheng Fa heard Uncle Pang sigh again:
"Back then, this Huang loved to go to the market. She would go there every day, buying clothes today and jewelry tomorrow. She was a complete spendthrift. My senior brother complained to me every day and sometimes even borrowed money from me. But later... she never went to the market again."

I didn’t expect Jiushan Mall to have this effect.

Seeing Uncle Huang's smile, Zheng Fa actually felt a sense of accomplishment. I believe Uncle Pang was also very pleased...

"As expected, he still has the same bad habits and is superficial!"

"?"

So you don't dare to say it openly because you are afraid of being beaten, right?
Seeing that Senior Sister Zhang and the other three were still obsessed with shopping, Senior Uncle Pang shook his head and said impatiently, "It takes you so long to choose clothes. It's troublesome. I can just stick half an incense stick and it's done! Tell me, what does Jiushan Entertainment do?"

"Jiushan Entertainment is very simple." Zheng Fa tapped on the screen and opened Jiushan Entertainment. "It's actually news, dramas and scripts."

"News? The one that Junior Brother Yuan is in charge of?"

Uncle Pang was stunned.

"That's the one."

"What's the point of showing this news to outsiders? It could easily leak secrets."

Uncle Pang obviously didn't quite understand.

Zheng Fa smiled and didn't explain.

Regarding this matter, let alone Uncle Pang, I'm afraid even the propaganda genius doesn't quite understand the true power of the four words "control public opinion".

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Uncle Pang didn't ask any further questions and just looked at the other two columns.

"Drama? Like the rescue one before..."

"Yes, there are many plays in the sect now. We can put them here in the future and let other monks pay to watch them."

"...That's great! This will definitely make money!" Uncle Pang said happily, "It might even make more money than the mall!"

Zheng Fa nodded slightly. Uncle Pang did have some talent for worldly affairs.

According to his observations over the years, the entertainment needs of many monks are even greater than their physiological needs.

Monks are a group whose theoretical lifespan is extremely long, but whose life is in danger at any time and who suffer enormous psychological pressure.

Even when their cultivation reaches the Golden Core stage, they can save on meals.

If a monk lies down, he will be almost idle, bored, and have no idea how to kill time.

It can be said that there is an extreme lack of entertainment activities.

Tickets for the theater in Jiushanfang City have long been in short supply.

The drama has become the signature of the market town, attracting many foreign monks.

"But the storybook thing is too old-fashioned. There is nothing new to play with, so it probably won't make much money. It's not as fresh as a drama, and it doesn't exist in the Xuanwei Realm."

Uncle Pang said confidently: "Not to mention others, I also read a lot of story books when I was young, but now I have lost interest. What's more, it costs money, it is absolutely impossible!"

Before Zheng Fa could explain, an urgent question came from the side.

"Where's down there?"

Zheng Fa and Uncle Pang turned around and saw Elder Xiong standing there anxiously, looking worried.

"What's down there?"

Uncle Pang asked in confusion.

"A storybook!"

Uncle Pang asked curiously, "Storybook? What's it about?"

"Let me tell you, this is actually quite interesting. At the beginning, the protagonist's fiancée was robbed by a disciple of Hao Ri Mountain. He was seriously injured and dying. He was about to die, but unexpectedly, he picked up a ring with the remaining soul of a powerful person. He had many adventures and became a disciple of Jiushan Sect. He soared to the sky, awakened his talent for refining weapons, and achieved the golden elixir in ten years."

At this point, Elder Xiong paused, looking at Zheng Fa with a somewhat resentful look in his eyes, "I just saw the protagonist seeking revenge on that bastard at Hao Ri Mountain, and that's it?"

Uncle Pang was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zheng Fa blankly: "What kind of storybook is this? I have never seen it before."

“I just wrote it.”

As Uncle Pang listened, he became more and more curious.

He opened the Tongjian in his hand and found the storybook interface. Seeing there was only one book on it, he started reading it directly.

The Nascent Soul cultivator read very quickly, and the expression on his face changed even faster, as if he was playing a changing face. He was gritting his teeth one moment, and then his brows were filled with joy the next.

From time to time, he would slap his thighs, making a popping sound, but he was completely unaware of it.

After half an incense stick of time, he raised his head and looked at Zheng Fa:

"What's down there?"

"There's a fee down there."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Pang took out a spirit stone and stuffed it into Zheng Fa's hand without any hesitation.

Zheng Fa handed him a card and explained to Uncle Pang who didn't quite understand: "This is a good deed card. Uncle, enter the serial number above in Tongjian and you will get good deed points. You can use this good deed points to shop in the mall and watch plays and novels in Jiushan Entertainment."

The biggest problem in making money through these two apps is that there is no suitable payment system.

With the incomplete currency system of the Xuanwei Realm, Zheng Fa couldn't think of a solution for a while, and now he can only use operations similar to game point cards:
Tongjian holders can purchase physical point cards, recharge good deeds, and then make purchases.

Although it is a bit troublesome, with the current technical reserves of the Nine Mountains Realm, Zheng Fa can only think of this solution for the time being.

……

Uncle Huang brought Sister Zhang to Zheng Fa's side, looked at Uncle Pang, who had eight hundred expressions in an instant, and asked in confusion:
"What is he doing? Is he possessed?"

"Read the script."

Uncle Huang sneered when he heard this: "This Pang guy has been stubborn for so many years, but he still has the same childish ways!"

After hearing this, Madam Xuanhua hesitated for a moment and said something fair on behalf of Uncle Pang: "It's not Elder Pang's fault."

"Ok?"

"Although the plot of this story is a bit thin and the language is almost plain, it makes people reluctant to put it down. I couldn't help it the other day and read it for a whole day and night, almost delaying the important work of Tiangong Pavilion."

“…Is it so beautiful?”

Uncle Huang said in surprise.

Uncle Pang raised his head and looked at Zheng Fa with a strange look:

"It's more than just good-looking! Zheng Fa's story, tsk..."

"Tsk what?"

"The villain in his story is the true disciple of Hao Ri Mountain, whose surname is Lu. He is domineering, unreasonable, sinister and vicious. Hao Ri Mountain is also hypocritical, and they are all snakes and rats." Uncle Pang's tone became more and more strange. "The protagonist joined the Jiushan Sect. The brothers are friendly and respectful, the elders are kind, and the sect is fair and strict. Everyone is united."

"Who wouldn't curse Hao Rishan after seeing this comparison?"

"Who wouldn't admire our Jiushan Sect after seeing this?"

"It's written so realistically that I can't find any fault with the details."

Certainly couldn't fault it.

When Zheng Fa copied this thing, of course he made the plot about Xiao Bai.

But the secrets of the martial arts, magical weapons and elixirs, the customs and habits of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, and especially the rules of the Haori Mountain Gate, are all true and realistic.

He personally collected materials and conducted on-site investigations in the Chongxuan Sect. As a true disciple of Haori Mountain, he has direct access to first-hand information. Who dares to lie?

This story is 100% fiction in modern times.

But in the mysterious world, it can almost be called documentary literature.

Modern people call this stuff vulgar and unsophisticated writing, but Zheng Fa doesn't dare to argue with it.

But after entering the Xuanwei Realm, this group of cultivators had to respectfully call it... The Brilliant Nine Mountains Dream!

"The Nine Mountains Sect is perfect here..." Uncle Pang looked at Zheng Fa with a very strange look, "I blushed when I saw it."

When everyone heard this, their expressions were a little strange.

This Elder Pang is probably the person in the hall who cares most about the Jiushan Sect.

Since he said so, it is conceivable that the Jiushan Sect in this story is really too good to be true.

Sun Daoyu walked in from outside the hall, bowed to the Yuanyings, and then cupped his hands to Zheng Fa and said, "All the disciples in the sect are here. Please give us your instructions, Sect Master."

Zheng Fa nodded to Sun Daoyu, then turned to Uncle Master Pang and said, "Uncle Master, do you think the Nine Mountains Sect in this story is too fake?"

Uncle Pang grinned: "I'm not saying that the Jiushan Sect is bad, but the Jiushan Sect in this story is... too good."

Zheng Fa smiled, raised his feet, and walked out the door, leaving only his voice in the hall:

"But that is the Jiushan Sect in my heart."

"Master uncle feels that it is not realistic enough, so after the Nine Mountains are restructured today, we will make it a reality."
