Chapter 327 - 327: Building a Caravan (2)
No one had expected Yang Chen to be so bold.
What kind of place was the Endless Mountains? It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a forbidden land in the human world.
Who knew how many demon emperors and demon kings there were inside? Not to mention crossing the Endless Mountain Range, even if they could go 10,000 miles deep, it would already be considered a blessing from the heavens.
Seeing everyone’s shock and fear, Yang Chen smiled and said,””Everyone, there is no need to be afraid. This matter is led by my Chen family, and the one who has contributed the most is naturally my Chen family.”
“There’s no need to be shocked, because 1 already had a plan for this.
If we don’t connect the trade routes and rely on the resources in the Endless Mountain Range, we will sooner or later run out of food.”
“If we don’t work hard now, are we going to leave this problem for future generations?”
“If you are unlucky and die early, it’s fine. If you are lucky and really break through to the stage, you won’t even have the resources to cultivate.”
“I’m not trying to scare you. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Sect Leader Wang Shuo. Although his family hasn’t made it to the stage, he doesn’t lack cultivation resources.”
Hearing this, all the leaders looked at Wang Shuo. Seeing this, Wang Shuo sighed.” Sigh, actually, since a hundred years ago, cultivation resources have been very scarce.”
“More than a hundred years ago, our Beast Tamer Sect could still maintain the glory of having three or four Zifu Disciples. Now, it’s impossible.”
“It’s not that 1 don’t have enough talent. It’s just that I don’t have the resources to nurture another Zifu Disciple.”
“And even if my Beast Tamer Sect has fallen, the status of the sect has not decreased. What does this mean? It means that the sect in Da Qian has fallen as a whole.”
“By the same logic, the Great Gan’s martial arts declined, but its position in the other dynasties did not change. This also means that the other dynasties have also declined.”
Hearing Wang Shuo’s words, the faces of all the leaders turned ugly.
Their forces were weak and could not directly sense the shortage of resources. However, sometimes, they felt that it was not easy to earn spirit stones.
Seeing the expressions on everyone’s faces, Yang Chen struck while the iron was hot and said,””Have you never thought of going to a higher place to see the scenery?”
” If everyone really sees the scenery at a higher place, but they are stuck in a dilemma for the rest of their lives because of the limited training resources, won’t they be even more helpless?”
This time, the leaders of the various forces were no longer silent. Instead, they began an intense discussion.
After a while, Master Meng asked,””Lord Chen, we are all willing to follow the footsteps of the Chen Clan.”
“However, the Endless Mountains are simply too dangerous. We are all afraid that this is just a meaningless attempt.”
Yang Chen understood that these people were still afraid.
Even if the Chen family would bear the greatest losses, they were still afraid that their investment would not return.
Every leader of a force had many things to consider and would not act rashly.
This was because their rash decision could very likely cause the entire faction to be buried with them.
It was also for this reason that they did not dare to take the risk.
Seeing this, Yang Chen smiled and said,” I understand what you mean. Please rest assured, I will not joke with the lives of my Chen family members.””
“Admittedly, there will definitely be damage in opening up the trade route, but 1 can guarantee that the damage will definitely be within your tolerance.”
“Words are useless. Before the caravan sets off, 1 will show everyone the confidence of my promise.”
“Furthermore, 1 will give everyone a freedom to leave the caravan at any time. I will not stop you, nor will 1 blame you.”
“However, there is something I must say first. Once you quit, you cannot join the caravan again.”
“Now, everyone, please make your declaration.”
Hearing this, the group of leaders did not express their opinions. Instead, they continued to discuss the possibility of this matter with the other leaders.
Yang Chen didn’t rush them. He just sat in the main seat and watched them discuss with a smile.
Not long after, he asked again,””I believe in Chen Clan Leader and I am willing to join the caravan. However, Chen Clan Leader, how should we split the benefits?”
Yang Chen smiled and said,” The Chen family will take 70% of the profits from this caravan operation. The remaining 30% will be divided according to how much you have contributed.””
“I’ll let the Great Elder tell everyone the specific rules. Of course, if my Chen family wants 70% of the profits, we will naturally put in 70% of our effort.”
“At any time, it will be placed in front of everyone to let everyone judge whether the Chen family’s distribution method is reasonable or not.”
“We believe in the Chen family’s reputation.”Wang Shuo nodded and said,””However, isn’t 30% too little for us to share?”
Hearing this, the other clan leaders and sect leaders nodded.
They did not doubt that the Chen family would have to contribute 70% of their strength.
Whether it was the Chen family’s current strength or the reputation that the Chen family had accumulated over the years, they believed that Chen Yang did not lie to them.
But still, 30% was too little.
There were so many forces here, could they be divided?
Hearing Wang Shuo’s question, Yang Chen was delighted. Since they had already started to talk about benefits, then this matter would be settled soon.
“Sect Master Wang, everyone, you still don’t understand how much profit this trade route can bring us.” Yang Chen quickly said.”
“Let’s not talk about the distant places. Let’s talk about the Endless Mountain Range. The isolation of the Endless Mountain Range caused the martial arts heritage here to be almost cut off.”
“There are many martial arts, cultivation techniques, pills, spiritual weapons,
and array formations. I’ve never even heard of them, let alone heard of them..””
