"How can that be?" Jiang Wang stopped him. "The Taixu Corner Tower will be built on your territory, and you will need to take care of it in the future. Moreover, I still feel guilty about what happened in the Heaven Palace Mystic Realm. In any case, you have to let me have an explanation for this. "
"That's another matter. You can't talk about it like that," Lü Zongxiao said excitedly. "Can't I see the prospects of the Taixu Corner Tower? It's enough to ensure the long-term prosperity of Tianfu City! Not to mention what it will be like in eleven years, even if you tear down the Tianfu Secret Territory! I have no complaints! It's worth it! "
Building the Taixu Corner Tower in Tianfu City, Lü Zongxiao could participate in it in the name of the City Lord's Mansion and obtain benefits. This was only a part of the benefits. Those who came because of the Taixu Corner Tower and those who improved in the Great Illusionary Realm … were all increasing the foundation of Tianfu City.
Who would gain the most benefits? It was Tianfu City, and it was the Tianfu City Lord.
Therefore, even if he only took one out of ten of the benefits, it was still a great advantage.
As for the sentence he seemed to have casually mentioned, "Even if you tear down the Tianfu Secret Territory, it's worth it."
If he was listening, then he was listening. If he wasn't listening, then he was listening.
After being the City Lord of Tianfu City for so long, did Lü Zongxiao really not notice the changes in the Tianfu Secret Territory?
When Zhu Biqiong went in, she was on the verge of death and powerless, but when she came out, she was alive and kicking. When had the Tianfu Secret Territory ever had such an experience?
But what was the best choice?
If he really tore apart this matter and fell out with Jiang Wang on the spot, would there be a good result? Would he be able to escape his own responsibility?
And if he pretended not to know … then he could live peacefully for eleven years. After eleven years, he would see how Jiang Wang would deal with it. With Jiang Wang's character, since he had made a promise, he wouldn't let him suffer.
Taking a step back, if he could become a god in eleven years, he wouldn't be afraid of taking responsibility. If he couldn't succeed, he could just retire.
Therefore, when Zhu Biqiong left alone, he chose to ignore her and listen to Jiang Wang's explanation.
From the moment Brother Jiang took out the Cloud Muzun and Xingsi Staff, he knew that he had made the right decision. He was indeed a responsible Tianjiao. The returns after eleven years were worth looking forward to.
However, he did not expect that Jiang Wang would bring him such a big gift in just a few days, not even eleven years later.
What was there to think about? He should make as many friends as he could. The more intimate they could be, the more intimate they should be.
Jiang Wang took a deep look at Lü Zongxiao. To be able to become the City Lord of a major city like Tianfu City, it was indeed impossible to rely on cultivation alone. Strategy and methods were also indispensable.
If he had harbored malicious intentions from the start and wanted Lü Zongxiao to bear the losses of the Heavenly Secret Realm alone, then there would have been enmity between them. Who knew how they would fight a lawsuit now?
However, he had always wanted to do his best to bear the responsibility and solve the problem. Only with this attitude could Lü Zongxiao keep his mouth shut about the Heavenly Secret Realm.
"Big Brother Lu, I won't lie to you. I plan to let my Desheng Trading Company build and operate the Taixu Corner Tower. I won't be staying in Tianfu City forever. This is a long-term business, and I need the City Lord's Mansion to maintain order and ensure that no one causes trouble. Therefore, you should take one of these five shares. "
Jiang Wang's intention was clear. He wanted to take another share of the profits and let the City Lord's Mansion station a group of guards in the Taixu Corner Tower.
It was not that he could not recruit a few fighters, but the guards he had privately transferred over, even if they were from the Junggenjia, had a completely different meaning. The guards of the City Lord's Mansion represented Tianfu City, and even more so, they represented Qi.
The guards stood at the entrance and charged at the Taixu Corner Tower, just like charging at the City Lord's Mansion. Looking at Qi, how many people had the guts to do so?
One of the reasons why Jiang Wang did not choose to build the Taixu Corner Tower in Qingyang Town was that Qingyang Town did not have the power to ensure the normal operation of the Taixu Corner Tower. He could not sit in the Taixu Corner Tower all day and tie himself to the profits.
If he let the Junggenjia send someone to take care of it, then would this business belong to him or the Junggenjia?
He did not mind if the business of the Taixu Corner Tower was given to Chung Geng Sheng. However, the problem was that the Junggenjia was not equal to Chung Geng Sheng. The Jung Genzun, who had stolen the limelight of his peers, was about to come out …
No matter how confident he was, he could only say that he dared to fight and was not afraid of drawing his sword. As for the outcome, it was hard to say.
The Desheng Trading Company was a business that was completely controlled by him and Chung Geng Sheng. Handing the Taixu Corner Tower over to the Desheng Trading Company was giving Chung Geng Sheng a way out. Even if he failed to compete for the position of the head of the family, he would still have such a business.
The safety of the Taixu Corner Tower was handed over to Tianfu City. It was not only a compensation to the Tianfu Secret Realm, but also an additional help. The status of the City Lord of Tianfu City was not much lower than that of the County Chief of Linhai County.
Since Jiang Wang had said so, Lü Zongxiao did not waste any more time. "Okay, I will take advantage of you this time. Business tax will take five shares, and the rest will be three shares for you and two for me! Big Brother will definitely settle the matter of the Great Void Turret properly for you! "
When Jiang Wang did things, he would either not do them or not dilly-dally. After a few words, he immediately went to look for a site with Lü Zongxiao. After circling back and forth a few times, they finally decided to build it on the west side of Tianfu City.
Lü Zongxiao immediately marked out twenty mu of land for Jiang Wang to develop freely.
In addition, he also circled a large area of the city, including the land used for the construction of the Taixu Corner Tower, and ordered his subordinates to renovate and reorganize it on the spot. Taverns, inns … all moved here.
Tianfu City had risen because of the Tianfu Secret Realm. He knew all too well how to make use of an advantageous resource like the Taixu Corner Tower.
As the City Lord of Tianfu City, the prosperity of Tianfu City was not only his political achievements, but also his cultivation.
The official path was a strict and complicated cultivation system. It was a mixture of Daoism, Confucianism, Dharma, and Mohism. It was a powerful supplement to cultivation.
Not only did one have to look at one's status, but also the influence of one's power.
Different levels naturally provided different levels of support.
For example, although the people of Qingyang Town could be used, the benefits to Jiang Wang were negligible. It could not keep up with his cultivation at all. On the other hand, it was of great help to Dugu Xiao, who was officially the mayor.
The benefits that the mayor of a small town like Qingyang Town and the hereditary Marquis Bowang could bring were naturally worlds apart.
The position of the City Lord of Tianfu City was comparable to that of the County Governor. It was also beneficial to Lü Zongxiao's cultivation.
However, the official path could only be used as a supplement to cultivation, not the foundation of cultivation.
For example, Dugu Xiao could only use her status as the mayor of Qingyang Town to absorb Primordial Qi faster, condense Primordial Qi, increase her cultivation speed, and even mobilize the power of the town to fight enemies. If she was still an ordinary person, it would be useless even if she became the mayor. At most, she would be protected by the aura of the official and be able to avoid some wandering ghosts.
Therefore, many cultivators disdained the official path, thinking that it was not worth it to be entangled in worldly affairs.
The benefits of the official path had different effects on different people. It was even different at different stages. For example, the State Minister of Zhuang Country, Du Ruhui. In the early days, the position of State Minister had indeed greatly increased his cultivation speed.
However, at his current level, when he wanted to break through to the Insightful Truth Realm, the position of State Minister of Zhuang Country could no longer provide him with much help. On the contrary, he was shackled by the position and was burdened by state affairs, so his cultivation speed was slow.
For Jiang Wang, his current position and nobility, apart from the actual status, was basically just a salary. If he really wanted to govern a region, even if he was given the position of County Governor of Qi City, it might not necessarily be faster than his current cultivation speed.
There were no fundamental problems with the construction of Taixu Corner Tower.
Although the materials were precious and required a lot of investment in the early stages, it was nothing more than following the blueprint.
After Jiang Wang personally decided on the location, he immediately sent a letter to the people of the Desheng Trading Company to be responsible for purchasing the relevant materials. He also asked Lü Zongxiao to help hire people from the Ministry of Works to build the building. This was also a choice that Qi Ting trusted more.
The main value of Taixu Corner Tower was that it was connected to the Great Illusionary Land. As long as there was a seat in the building, the twenty mu of land that Lü Zongxiao had set aside was definitely more than enough. As for the specific planning, Jiang Wang left it to Chung Geng Sheng to worry about. After all, he was good at this kind of thing.
Yes, the expansion of the Great Illusionary Land was so important that Chung Geng Sheng put aside his overseas affairs and returned. Of course, he had already done most of the things that he could do overseas.
In fact, the changes in the Great Illusionary Land had been slowly progressing. There had been signs of it a long time ago. It was only when the Ocean Merit List appeared that the speed suddenly increased.
Previously, Chung Geng Sheng had communicated with Jiang Wang.
However, at that time, he only vaguely knew a little bit of information. The information was very limited. After all, he was an outsider and his position was not high enough. He did not expect that Jiang Wang would become a Messenger of the Great Void and an 'insider' without saying anything!
