Chapter 222 The Fish Is Hooked
Zheng Qian and the other three are considered very capable among the management of the Qingdan Sect.
The fact that this half-asleep guy can hang out with them shows that he is not a fool.
He still asked: "I wonder what this steward is good at?"
Before Liu Qingyuan could introduce him, he took the initiative and said, "Qi Zhenjun, his subordinate's name is Du Jiu. Because he likes to drink, he got the name of 'Du Drunkard'.
After living for so many years, I haven't learned any skills. I just know how to make wine and drink wine.
I used to be a brewing manager at Lingchutang, and I was usually in charge of brewing. "
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen understood clearly.
Because Qingdan Sect is good at alchemy, everything related to alchemy is pretty good.
Brewing spiritual wine also requires some elixirs and the like, so Qingdan Sect's spiritual wine is also quite famous.
Du Jiu can be a brewing steward in the Qingdan Sect, so he must have some ability.
It just so happens that I also have a lot of golden rice in my hands. Even the second-level golden rice has been planted on dozens of acres on Panlong Mountain.
These second-order golden silk rice are very popular in the market.
There are also some monks who like to drink wine and drink wine with golden silk rice.
Liu Yuanchen also wanted to use this golden rice to make wine, but he didn't have the talent available.
As for studying winemaking on your own, forget it.
If you have that free time, you might as well spend more time practicing or studying elixirs.
Now that Du Jiu is the brewing manager, it can open up a new source of income for Dongyang Shenfu.
The profit from making golden silk rice into wine and then selling it will definitely be much higher than selling the rice directly.
“I cultivated a mutated Golden Silk Rice a few years ago, which can grow to the second-level mid-grade.
According to some casual cultivators who know a little bit about wine-making, this rice is very suitable for wine-making.
But without such talents at his disposal, he has been unable to make wine. "
When Du Jiu talked about wine making, his eyes suddenly widened and he became energetic.
"I have also bought some of the golden rice that Shenjun mentioned, and it is indeed a good product for wine making.
Unfortunately, brewing requires good spiritual materials and good water.
There is no good spiritual spring in Qingdan Sect, so it cannot play the role of the second-level golden silk rice. "
Liu Yuanchen quickly asked: "There are many springs on Panlong Mountain. Is there any spring water suitable for making wine?"
Du Jiu nodded: "When I came down, I saw that the water in Panlong Lake was beautiful and contained vitality.
This second-level golden silk rice should be watered by the lake water, and the two are the best match.
If you can make wine with the second-level Golden Silk Rice and Panlong Lake water, it will definitely be far better than Spring Breeze Brewing. "
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, Guanshi Du will first be a steward in this Lingchu Division, specifically responsible for brewing wine.
When I have time in the future, I will train a few more talented disciples.
When the time comes, I will set up a Spiritual Wine Department and let you be in charge.
You can even set up a spiritual wine hall and let you be the hall master. "
Hearing this, Du Jiu was also quite excited.
He quickly bowed and saluted: "Thank you very much for your cultivation. With the support of the Divine Lord, within ten years, I will be able to make the wine from Panlong Lake overwhelm the Qingdan Sect's Spring Breeze Brewing."
…
Suddenly, five veteran stewards were hired from the Qingdan Sect, greatly expanding Liu Yuanchen's talent team.
With them here, the various resources produced under Dongyang Divine Mansion should be greatly improved in the future.
At this time, he also took some time to stare at Manager Ren in Xieyang Inn.
Although the purpose of opening the palace and recruiting talents this time is to expand the strength of Dongyang Shenfu.
However, the direct reason is still to catch the steward.
At this time, Manager Ren was restless in the Xieyang Inn.
The elder asked him to figure out the formation of the Panlong Mountain Defense Formation. Once he figured it out, he would definitely ask him to destroy the formation.
He didn't want to do this job, but the position of elder was indeed too tempting.
Although he is only a sinecure elder, he is still an elder.
In the future, those who become powerful elders must be promoted based on their seniority.
The earlier you become an incumbent elder now, the earlier you will become an actual elder in the future.
"The elder gave me such an errand, and it was definitely a narrow escape from death.
If it were before, you could shirk the fact that there was no chance.
But Dongyang Shenfu is looking for talented people, and a God-given opportunity has arrived.
If he retreats, he may be settled by the elder Qiuhou.
As long as you seize this opportunity, becoming an elder is a sure thing.
With the status of an elder, you will get much more cultivation resources in the future. "
After hesitating for a few days, Manager Ren finally made up his mind.
"Wealth can be found in danger. For the position of elder, we must fight hard."
“Liu Yuanchen’s recruitment of talented people gave me a good opportunity.
As long as I can sneak into the formation hall of Dongyang Shenfu, I will definitely be reused with my talent in formation.
When you become the steward of the Formation Hall, will you not have the opportunity to come into contact with the Formation Eye? "
Thinking of this, he walked straight out of the inn and came to the management office in the northernmost part of Panlonghufang City.
After signing up, you are waiting to be assessed by the Formation Hall.
Liu Yuanchen kept staring at him with the Heavenly Dao Divine Realm, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him going to the Panlonghufang City Management Department to save his life.
"After all, such a big fight was not in vain, the fish took the bait."
Manager Ren was also very alert. Instead of using his real name, he took a pseudonym called Li Cheng.
A few days later, Tie Junlan, the master of the formation hall, took several old people who were assigned to the formation hall to test everyone's formation skills.
The manager's skills were really good. He claimed to be a second-level high-grade formation mage, and he was able to refine a full set of formation disks required for a second-level high-grade formation, as smoothly as water.
When setting up on the spot, it was also arranged to be watertight.
After the assessment was completed, Tie Junlan took everyone's results to the main hall of Dongyang Divine Mansion.
She called Liu Yuanchen the list that recorded everyone's results: "Senior Brother, the assessment results of the Formation Hall are all here.
One of them, Li Cheng, was quite impressive. He was not only very skilled in refining array disks and condensing array patterns.
Even the formation method is extremely clever. With my level, I can't find any flaws. "
"This kind of person doesn't seem to be a casual cultivator."
Liu Yuanchen secretly laughed in his heart, this manager Ren probably had no experience in lurking, and he did things too perfectly.
If there is no flaw, it may be the biggest flaw.
It is almost impossible for a second-level high-level formation mage to arrange a second-level high-level formation perfectly.
To arrange a perfect formation, it is usually a high-level formation master who arranges a low-level formation so that there are almost no flaws.
He waved his hand: "You have been in the world of immortality for a long time, who doesn't have some secrets yet?
As long as you have the ability and can do well in Dongyang Shenfu, we should accept him. "
“Since you suspect that this person’s origins are not legitimate, then investigate more.
Before confirming his loyalty, don't let him touch the formation in Panlonghufang City. "
After receiving Liu Yuanchen's instruction, Tie Junlan naturally had no objection: "Since senior brother is willing to accept him, then I will investigate more."
Liu Yuanchen looked at the assessment inheritance of other people and selected fifty monks with acceptable formation skills.
“Let’s hire these people for this Formation Hall’s assessment.”
Tie Junlan left Dongyang Divine Mansion with the recruitment list and went to the Management Department of Panlonghufang City to announce the recruitment.
Liu Yuanchen couldn't help but sneer: "If you want to take advantage of me, you have to be prepared to be squeezed out of the last bit of value."
…
The Dongyang Divine Mansion's recruitment of talented people was very popular, and even Hanhai County in the westernmost part of Chihuang Hou Kingdom had people coming.
Unfortunately, each hall of Dongyang Divine Mansion can only recruit fifty people at most.
After all, Dongyang Shenfu’s plate is not big now.
There are only stores in Panlong Mountain and Hekou Town. These few stores cannot absorb too many resources, so naturally they do not need too many manpower.
Most of the places to recruit people were taken first by the monks who lived in Panlong Hufang City.
The monks who came from Hanhai County naturally couldn't keep up with the heat.
Dongyang Divine Mansion has also promised that in the future, when the population under Dongyang Divine Mansion increases and the business becomes larger, more people will be recruited.
Of course, this is also empty talk.
Nowadays, we are recruiting people from outside on a large scale because we really can’t find any people at home.
Now the front line is confronting the demon clan. In the short term, Dongyang Divine Mansion will not have the opportunity to expand rapidly.
Talent is something that can only be cultivated at home, so you can rest assured.
In the future, the expansion of Dongyang Divine Palace will slow down, and the manpower needed will mainly be cultivated by the company.
Recruiting talents will probably not happen in the future.
…
After taking the blood bat sect's spies under his command, Liu Yuanchen also sent a special letter to his master, telling him the progress of the matter.
Within a few days, his second uncle came to the divine realm.
Liu Yuanchen quickly entered the divine realm, and after meeting Ling Yu, he bowed and saluted: "Uncle, I have been waiting for you to come.
With you here taking charge, I have a backbone. "
Ling Yu smiled and said: "With your courage, you still want me to be your backbone?
You should be able to easily take down a mere steward of the Blood Bat Cult. "
"Now that the manager has taken the bait, what are you going to do next?
If he was deliberately allowed to come into contact with the formation eye, I'm afraid he would become suspicious.
But if he is not allowed to come into contact with the Formation Eye, the Monster Clan and the Ten Thousand Gods Sect will not take action easily.
If it is delayed for a long time, there may be more troubles. "
Liu Yuanchen chuckled lightly: "I just joined Dongyang Divine Mansion and wanted to make progress. How can such a good thing happen?
This person has great attainments in formations and is also quick at work.
I plan to let him work hard in Dongyang Divine Mansion for a few years. With his methods, he should be able to help me earn a lot of spiritual stones. "
Hearing this, Ling Yu was a little surprised: "You are really brave. He is the steward of the Blood Bat Sect, and you still want to exploit him."
Liu Yuanchen didn't care: "People with ulterior motives like this will definitely work harder than ordinary monks.
Let alone him being in charge, even that old guy Xue Mingzi lurked in.
As long as I can ensure my life is safe, I will still dare to exploit him. "
"By the way, I asked Master to inform Marquis Chihuang about this before. The news won't be leaked there, right?"
Ling Yu shook his head: "Don't worry, only four people know about this matter now.
The Marquis of Chihuang is also a figure. If not for this, the Great Xia Dynasty would not be able to let him sit in Chihuang.
If you don't take action here, he won't let the matter out. "
Liu Yuanchen breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, there is no problem.
Let me take charge of this job, and I will squeeze it out for a few years.
If this person works hard, I will promote him to the manager of the Formation Hall in a few years.
When the time is right, I will promote him to the deputy master of the Formation Hall.
At that time, I will issue an order to add some formations on Panlong Mountain.
Junior sister and the manager will naturally participate in it, so he can legitimately touch the center of the formation. "
Ling Yu nodded: "Although your plan is a little slow, it is indeed very safe. "
Seeing that the second uncle agreed, Liu Yuanchen also smiled and said: "Since you have no objection, I will do it.
However, the demon clan will definitely find a way to destroy the center of the formation before officially attacking Panlong Mountain. "
"If the center of the formation is damaged, the defense on Panlong Mountain will also collapse.
I wonder if you have any means to quickly repair the formation? "
Ling Yu shook his head: "This is more difficult. The formation of Panlong Mountain is large in scale, covering more than 200 miles in radius.
For a large formation of this scale, once there is a problem with the center of the formation, it is almost impossible to repair it in a short time. "
"However, I can help you set up a few fake center of the formation.
At that time, you can lead the little cubs of the Blood Bat Cult to destroy the fake center of the formation. "
Liu Yuanchen nodded slightly: "This method is indeed safer, but can it be hidden from the spies of the Blood Bat Cult?"
Ling Yu sneered: "Although your second uncle is not a grandmaster of formations, I still have a reputation below the grandmaster.
The formations I set up, even the old thing Xue Mingzi can't see through, let alone a little kid. "
"Just put your heart in your stomach, leave the matters related to the formation to me. "
Seeing that the second uncle was so confident, Liu Yuanchen naturally had no objection.
The two left the Shendao Spirit Realm and came to the Dongyang Divine Mansion.
Ling Yu's face changed: "Nephew, you are really good.
It has only been a short time, and Panlong Mountain has become a seventh-grade divine mountain. "
Liu Yuanchen smiled and said: "I am lucky. I bought several black iron mines of the Chen family before.
Unexpectedly, mineral seedlings were dug out in the mine.
I asked my junior brother to help me put the mineral seedling into the underground of Panlong Mountain.
Then I used the power of heaven to promote it and let it grow quickly. "
"I didn't expect that because of this mineral seedling, the whole Panlong Mountain was promoted."
Ling Yu nodded slightly: "You are lucky. You can dig out mineral seedlings in the black iron mine.
However, most of the mines that can breed mineral seedlings are quite good.
There must be spiritual veins around the black iron mine, and the grade is estimated to be not low. "
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen shook his head: "It shouldn't be, that mine is Black Rock Mountain, on the bank of Xuansha River, not far from Hekou Town, there are no spiritual veins around it. "
Hearing this, Ling Yu became interested.
"If it is near the spiritual vein, it is normal for mineral seedlings to be derived from the mineral vein.
It is a strange thing for mineral seedlings to appear in places without spiritual veins.
Black Rock Mountain is extraordinary, and there may be secrets deep underground. "
Liu Yuanchen asked hurriedly: "You mean there might be a spiritual vein deep underground over there?"
Ling Yu shook his head: "It's hard to say, it could be a spiritual vein, or it could be a ground vein or a dragon vein, or it could be a treasure left over from ancient times.
After all, mineral seedlings are real natural treasures, and they must have a huge amount of energy to form.
Places where there are no spiritual veins but mineral seedlings are mostly secrets, and this place needs to be explored carefully. "
