Bi Gang did not hear them at all. His mind was occupied with Nie Yunfei's decision to waive the head tax for everyone.
Although it was only one King Grade Crystal per person per year, if one city had one hundred million people, it would be one hundred million King Grade Crystals. Three thousand cities would be three hundred billion King Grade Crystals.
This was just a year's income, and it was a huge amount.
However, Nie Yunfei's words had reduced the income by so much.
Initially, Bi Gang did not understand the reason behind it, but he soon figured it out.
Waiving the head tax would bring stability and prosperity. Moreover, once the news spread, many people from the surrounding cities would move to the Six Ultimate Divine Mansion.
With a large population base, there would only be talented people and income.
Even if they could earn less from the head tax, they could still earn crystals in other areas. For example, they could earn a lot of crystals from various places, houses, and cultivation grounds.
All the houses and shops in the territory of the Six Ultimate Divine Mansion were privately owned by the Six Ultimate Divine Mansion. If other merchant groups wanted to open a shop, they would have to pay a considerable amount of crystals every year. As long as there were more people, there would definitely be more merchants coming to do business, and it would be easier to earn crystals.
Moreover, Nie Yunfei had already decided to open many shops in the major cities of the Six Ultimate Divine Mansion. He would be able to earn crystals easily in the future.
In fact, crystals were a small matter. What Nie Yunfei really valued was talents. In the future, when everyone trusted the Six Ultimate Divine Mansion, they would be able to recruit more talents. Moreover, the higher the population, the higher the chances of a heaven-defying genius appearing.
In a city, as long as there was a great talent, they could give up on crystals no matter how many they had.
The value a Golden Celestial could create was probably more than the annual income of hundreds of cities. What about an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial? It was even more incalculable.
In the long run, Nie Yunfei's decision was absolutely correct.
It was precisely because he understood all of this that Bi Gang began to carry it out in Red Capital.
…
The two Upper Celestial powerhouses did not dare to urge Bi Gang when they saw that he did not respond. They were sweating profusely and trembling.
After a while, Bi Gang regained his senses.
"Follow me. I have something to ask you," Bi Gang said coldly.
The two powerhouses in the Upper Celestial Stage did not dare to say no. They followed behind him, trembling with fear.
After taking them to a secluded area, Bi Gang asked, "You're all from Red Capital, right?"
"Yes! My lord. "
"Then let me ask you. Which experts are still in Red City, and which forces haven't left?"
Bi Gang's luck was pretty good. These two Upper Celestial Stage powerhouses had lived in the Red Capital for over a thousand years. It could be said that they knew everything about the Red Capital like the back of their hands. Bi Gang learned a lot of useful information from them.
Seeing that these two fellows were so obedient, Bi Gang showed great mercy and gave them the antidote.
"Get out of the Six Ultimate Divine Palace's territory. If I ever see you again, you're dead," Bi Gang shouted coldly.
It was impossible for Bi Gang to accept such a person. It was better to just get rid of him. He originally wanted to kill the two of them, but he didn't want to break his promise.
Bi Gang thought for a moment and went straight to a place.
The Huangfu Clan was the largest clan in the Red Capital. They had been rooted in the Red Capital for over ten thousand years.
However, the Huangfu Clan was a business world. Their influence was spread all over the Six Ultimate Divine Palace. They even had shops in the surrounding prefectures.
This time, Bai Duoluo's subordinates naturally invited the Huangfu Clan to leave with them.
The value created by a large merchant group was extremely great.
However, the Huangfu Clan's roots had always been in the Red Capital. The Red Capital was the place where they made their fortune. They didn't want to leave.
Although the Huangfu Clan didn't occupy any territory, they had many experts. Bai Duoluo didn't dare to make things difficult for them and could only give up.
After obtaining such important news, Bi Gang naturally had to pay a visit to the Huangfu Clan.
As long as he could establish a good relationship with the Huangfu Clan, he believed that the Six Ultimate Divine Palace's economy would quickly recover. Because the Huangfu Clan would definitely have a way to spread the news and let more merchant groups come to the Six Ultimate Divine Palace.
As long as he could establish a relationship with the Huangfu Clan, not only would it be beneficial to the stability of the Red Capital, it would also be beneficial to the stability of the Six Ultimate Divine Palace.
Bi Gang followed the instructions of the two Upper Celestial Stage powerhouses and asked as he walked. Soon, he arrived outside the Huangfu Clan's residence.
The Huangfu Clan's residence was extremely large. It was surrounded by a wall. In any case, one couldn't see the edge of the wall.
Outside the door, there were a few huge jade lions that looked mighty and majestic.
At the door, there were two Upper Celestial Stage powerhouses guarding. They held their heads high and were in high spirits. With one look, one could tell that they were well-trained and disciplined guards.
Bi Gang walked straight over. "I am Bi Gang from the Six Ultimate Divine Palace. Please pass on the message."
The two guards sized up Bi Gang for a while. When they saw that he was only at the Upper Celestial Stage, they didn't dare to believe it. However, they still sent one of them to pass on the message.
After a while, that person came out. "Young Master Bi Gang, please!"
Walking into the Huangfu Clan's residence, there was a small bridge over a flowing river. There were birds chirping and flowers fragrant. The floor was paved with jade and the beams were richly ornamented. It was truly luxurious and elegant.
Inside the residence, there were many houses. One couldn't see the end of them. There were definitely many people living inside, but it was very quiet.
After passing through many corridors, a girl walked over. She was dressed in fiery red clothes and held a long whip in her hand. The girl looked to be only 18 or 19 years old. Her body was already developed and curvy. Her big eyes were intelligent and crafty, and her round face was especially cute.
Although the girl hadn't fully grown, she was already an absolute beauty. Bi Gang couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
The girl's cultivation was not bad. She had already cultivated to the Pseudo Immortal Stage. At her age, it was already very rare for her to have such cultivation.
When the guard saw this girl, he seemed to be frightened. He lowered his head and said in fear and trepidation, "Greetings, Young Mistress!"
"Who is this? Why did you bring him into our Huangfu Clan? "The girl's voice was very pleasant, but her tone was very bad. She was completely unruly.
"Young Mistress, this is Lord Bi Gang from the Six Ultimate Divine Palace. He is here to see the Clan Leader."
"Six Ultimate Divine Palace!" The girl was a little surprised. "He said he was from the Six Ultimate Divine Palace. Could it be that he really is from the Six Ultimate Divine Palace? Go, I will ask him personally. "
"Yes! Young Mistress! "The guard ran away as if he was running for his life.
The girl kept pulling the whip straight and revealed a playful smile. "Brat, are you really from the Six Ultimate Divine Palace?"
"Is there a need to pretend?" Bi Gang's expression was normal.
Although the girl was unruly, Bi Gang didn't take it to heart. He was much more cunning than ordinary people. Only he could mess with others. No one could mess with him.
"Who knows if you are an imposter? Let me test you first." As the girl spoke, she waved the whip. Like a spirit snake, it went straight for Bi Gang's face.
"Hmph!" Bi Gang snorted coldly and grabbed the whip.
"The whip is not bad. It is a top-grade low-grade immortal artifact. Unfortunately, the person using the whip is too weak. What a waste!" Bi Gang sighed.
His attitude hurt the girl and hurt her pride. "Brat, you … see if I don't teach you a lesson."
Then, the girl threw out a hidden weapon at an extremely fast speed.
Bi Gang didn't move. He instantly created many palms and collected all the hidden weapons.
"Little girl, when I was playing with hidden weapons, you were still drinking milk. Stop playing and quickly lead the way. I don't have time to waste with you. "Bi Gang smiled.
"Wah … You bully me … Wuwu …" The girl directly sat on the corridor. Her snow-white hands rubbed her eyes. She looked very sad.
Bi Gang's eyes were very sharp. He could tell that the girl was pretending.
"If you don't lead the way, I will find it myself." Bi Gang walked past the girl.
"Stop playing!" The girl suddenly stood up.
"Stop playing. Either you lead the way, or I will find it myself." Bi Gang didn't look back.
The girl pouted. Her eyes seemed to be on fire. She gritted her teeth. "Brat, I will take you there."
The girl walked in front. She was very light. Her graceful back was very beautiful.
"This girl is quite beautiful. She is just a little unruly. If I teach her well, she will be good." Bi Gang thought.
If the girl knew Bi Gang's thoughts, she would probably go crazy.
Bi Gang was actually thinking of a loli cultivation plan. It was really wretched.
There was no other way. Bi Gang had done everything. It was not strange that he had never done such a thing.
"Brat, I will bring you to Tiny later. Let's see if you can handle it." The Tiny in the girl's heart was not small. It was an immortal beast that she raised — Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox. It was more than two meters tall and five meters long. Its cultivation had reached the True Immortal Realm.
The girl was very talented. Plus, she was the direct descendant of the HuangFu Family. Thus, the family specially raised an immortal beast for her to protect her.
The girl brought Bi Gang to the courtyard where she lived. The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox was resting there.
Bi Gang knew that the girl was not that obedient. She would definitely not bring him to see the HuangFu Family's Patriarch. However, he still followed her. He wanted to see what the girl was up to.
When he saw the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox, he naturally knew what the girl was thinking.
"This immortal beast is not bad. It is quite beautiful and strong. Unfortunately, its master is not so good." Bi Gang sighed.
"Tiny, teach him a lesson!" The girl said angrily.
"Hu!" The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox suddenly stood up and rushed towards Bi Gang.
The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox was extremely fast. A white shadow flashed and appeared in front of Bi Gang.
The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox's front claws were incomparably sharp.
Bi Gang's attack was even faster. He directly punched the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox's claws. The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox was sent flying.
"Your strength is not bad. However, you are still a little bit weaker than me." Bi Gang had an evil smile on his face.
"Tiny, go!" The girl shouted.
The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox wanted to rush towards Bi Gang again. However, he suddenly fell to the ground with a 'boom'.
Seeing the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox fall to the ground, the girl knew that Bi Gang had done something.
"Brat, what did you do to Tiny?" The girl placed her hands on her waist and glared angrily with her eyes wide open.
Bi Gang waved his hand. "Nothing much. I just let him rest for a while. Look at how tired he is."
"You poisoned him!" The girl was very smart.
