Chapter 611 56 To the Guardian of Wisdom! The Disappearing Youth
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
...In the blink of an eye, it was now early May.
The weather gradually heated up, and it was time for the wheat to fill with grain. Whether or not this season’s wheat could result in a good harvest now depended on this month.
At the Dingpu Ferry Terminal, the standoff between the Wang family and the Jiaolong Gang had been going on for three months. Thanks to the establishment of the flying carriage system, the heated discussion of this matter had spread outwardly from Changning prefecture, significantly increasing the Wang family’s reputation throughout Longzuo County.
In Wang Shouzhe’s words from his time on Earth, the Changning Wang Clan had made it to the ’hot searches’ of Longzuo County.
However, the heat eventually dissipates gradually.
Several months later, normality had returned to the Wang family’s life, and they continued to be absorbed in their rapid development.
"System Artifact Spirit."
In the side hall of Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard.
With the weather heating up, the room’s drapes had been replaced with a gauze canopy. A sky-blue canopy swayed with the wind, adding a touch of coolness to the room.
After all these years, Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard had barely changed, although he had added some pricier decorations upon strong insistence from Old Ancestor Longyan, yet it was still primarily geared toward comfort.
Wang Shouzhe was sitting comfortably in a recliner made of Spirit Wood, his eyes half-closed as he drummed his fingers on the armrest, seemingly deep in thought.
"Ding dong~ Artifact Spirit Lil Snow, greeting Master."
A projection of a two-dimensional beauty appeared in front of Wang Shouzhe. She had long elegant legs, an exaggerated figure, large eyes, snow-white long hair and cat ears...
Why was her name Lil Snow? Because she was originally the Blood Nest Artifact Spirit commonly known as ’Little Blood,’ but that didn’t sound pleasant, so she was simply renamed ’Lil Snow’.
Wang Shouzhe was quite pleased with her appearance and voice. It took him quite some time to tweak this through the system’s modeling panel.
Every time he saw Artifact Spirit Lil Snow, Wang Shouzhe felt like he was reclaiming his lost youth.
"What’s the sum of liquid cash we can mobilize?" asked Wang Shouzhe casually.
"Ding dong, Master, we can allocate five million Qian Gold," replied Artifact Spirit Lil Snow, her voice sounding exceptionally sweet and pleasant to Wang Shouzhe.
"Only five million Qian Gold?" Wang Shouzhe was slightly concerned. "As I recall, last year’s net annual income was already over three million."
"Ding dong~~ Master, the family’s expenses are just too high. Just the cost of all family members, the head of household, house servants and so on for their daily living, cultivation resources, Spirit Food, etc., amounts to one million two hundred thousand. We invested six hundred thousand Qian Gold in the Keep Achieving Commercial Firm which we have yet to capitalize.
The land development, water conservancy projects, road planning, and other public facilities in Ping’an Town also amount to more than two hundred thousand, plus the expenses of the intelligence group, employments, socialization…" explained Artifact Spirit Lil Snow.
"Enough, I understand the high cost," Wang Shouzhe waved his hand to stop her from saying more, "Open the system main interface." Now, the Wang family could indeed make a lot of money, but because many clansmen were being groomed to their full potential, the expenditures were massive.
That was particularly true for Old Ancestor Longyan. In order to cultivate a cultivator of Purple Abode Realm for the family as quickly as possible, the resources she consumed each year were extremely luxurious. Level three and four Spirit Meat were supplied generously, and occasionally they would splurge on Level Five Spirit Beast meat to supplement her Qi and blood.
One big Gathering Spirit Pill, worth three to four thousand Qian Gold, was consumed by the Old Ancestor Longyan every ten days! Just this alone accounted for over one hundred thousand Qian Gold. Every day she also consumed one to two Spirit Stones, which amounted to an expenditure of fifty to sixty thousand Qian Gold.
And that’s not counting some other expenses.
In short, Old Ancestor Longyan alone, who is only in the early stages of the Heavenly Human Realm, spent around two hundred thousand annually in cultivation. This was far more than the average cultivator of the Heavenly Human Realm and even exceeded the standards for the Sky Prides of the Academic Palace. It was such a luxurious expense that Fang Youan would cry if he saw it….
The advantage, however, was that the cultivation base of Old Ancestor Longyan soared upwards at a staggering rate. It was estimated that within around fifteen years, she would be able to reach the mid-stage of the Heavenly Human Realm.
Of course, Wang Shouzhe wanted to accelerate the promotion of Old Ancestor Longyan, but the current consumption had already reached the limit of diminishing marginal returns, and more resources couldn’t make her improve any faster.
Let’s set the chatter aside for now.
As Wang Shouzhe finished speaking,
The system’s main interface was cleanly projected in front of him.
