Chapter 164 Money is like dirt
Ian did not answer directly, and continued: "Old Gu, your main task is to manage the Chamber of Commerce well. Don't do anything yourself. No matter how good a person is, he cannot match a team. Our Chamber of Commerce is only short of talents now, talents in all aspects. Xinhe City is so big, with a population of hundreds of millions, can't we find people?
You just need to collect information about these talents and win them over. But a leader needs to have some means in addition to manpower, but I hope these means are not self-serving and detrimental to others. Do you understand what I mean?"
Gu Ness suddenly felt that Ian was very much to her liking, "I understand, I understand!"
"Old Gu, there is a Huanglong City on the southern border of the continent. You can consider developing there, especially the city lord Situ's family. They may be overwhelmed now, so this is a good opportunity. But remember, don't reveal my information anywhere."
"Good boss!"
"Shuanglongling, more than 100 kilometers southwest of Huanglong City, is the headquarters of our Tianlong Pavilion. Xinhe City will temporarily serve as a branch of our Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. You should shift your focus to Huanglong City first, so that we can develop better."
"Boss, you praise Huanglong City so much. I really want to go and have a look. No problem. I can arrange it in the next few days. As for this mansion..."
"Just stay here. It will be of great use later."
"No problem. It's noon now. Shall we go have a couple of drinks?"
Ian sighed: "There are so many things to do, I can't rest, let's drink when you come to Huanglong City.
By the way, please purchase the materials recorded here before going to Huanglong City. The more materials the better according to the requirements above. "
After saying that, Ian left and walked towards the inner courtyard of St. Peter's School of Magic and Martial Arts.
This time he came back, he had something very important to do.
The brothers who are currently in training are still lacking a top-level internal martial arts technique, and he needs to find one for them.
There is no need for a magician, Selina and Madman are enough.
Crazy Madman once said: A true genius will never just follow the old path of his predecessors. The martial arts and magic skills of the predecessors can only be used as a reference. The strong need to learn a set of skills that best suits them.
But the skills are important, so the price of skills is the most expensive.
Ian first went to the Mission Hall to pick up the nuclear crystals he had purchased from the stall he had rented before. The clerk told him that all the gold coins had been spent. In total, he had collected more than 5 level 8000 nuclear crystals and 6 level 22 nuclear crystals. Ian did not continue to rent any more.
He quietly returned to the back mountain of the inner courtyard and secretly met with the head of the courtyard, Nangong Buji. The two had a secret conversation until the next day.
To this end, Ian brought back a fragment of a heavenly-level martial arts technique - "The Wuxiang Wuji Gong", which has a total of nine levels, and the last three levels are in the Cangqiong Academy.
Ian chose this set of skills without hesitation. As for the Cang Qiong Academy, he would definitely go there in the future. He had a vague feeling that this place seemed to have some connection with him.
After returning to Shuanglong Ridge, Ian happened to meet people from Gu Shu and the Pang family.
Ian thought there would be a lot of people coming, but who knew there would only be about 300 people.
Only through communication did I realize how extraordinary they were. They were the best craftsmen in ancient Shu. Although there were not many of them, they brought with them a lot of ancient Shu technology, which enabled them to get twice the result with half the effort.
After three days of investigation and combining Ian and his team's requirements, the craftsmen developed a very complete plan.
After all members agreed unanimously, construction began. The main task was to develop the headquarters of the fifth building, and the other 14 buildings also underwent corresponding renovations. The project would take three months, and the total cost was estimated to be 100 billion gold coins.
in the hall.
Ian began to worry about money again. He rubbed his temples with his thumbs and couldn't help complaining:
"Why do I always feel like I don't have enough money? I spend billions of dollars just by doing something!"
At this time, the fat man's voice came from the door, "Boss, we are back!"
Following Granny Liu into the Grand View Garden, the fat man looked around and spread his hands helplessly, "There's nothing we can do. Old Gu has never seen the world. He has been like this all the way."
Gunness cursed:
"Fatty, who are you talking about? I just feel like our Tianlong Pavilion headquarters looks like a bandit's den."
Ian stood up and said with a smile:
"Hahaha, Lao Gu, you're right. This place used to be a bandit's den, but we took it out and it's going to be renovated soon."
Gu Ness suddenly realized, "No wonder those masked people outside are working so hard, but where did they come from? They are so efficient with those inexplicable big guys!"
“The people invited by Xinghun’s family.
By the way, Lao Gu, it will take at least 100 billion gold coins to renovate this. Tell me how to get the money."
Ian didn't want others to know too much about ancient Shu, so he changed the subject.
Unexpectedly, Gu Neisi jumped up, "What? 100 billion? You treat me like a machine. I know that no good will come out of you making me a marketing director."
After thinking about it, he asked, "How long will it take?"
Ian held up three fingers, and Gu Ness breathed a sigh of relief, "Three years? Not bad, in this case, it should be possible for me to sleep less."
Ian felt embarrassed and added:
"Yes... three months."
Gu Neisi turned around and walked away without any loyalty, cursing, "Fuck, I'm done with this, this is what you wanted."
Everyone looked at each other. Ian saw the storage ring that Gu Neis threw on the table, his eyes lit up, and he said:
"Come back, Lao Gu. I have a solution."
Gu Ness only complained, but couldn't help but say:
"Do you have a solution? If you had a solution, you wouldn't have come to me. 100 billion. Even though our former Gu family has assets of over 100 billion, it's still very difficult to come up with billion in cash all at once."
Ian understood why he had such a big reaction. He didn't know how expensive it was until he ran a household. He smiled and said:
"Old Gu, even if I had a way, I still wouldn't be able to make 100 billion in three months without you!"
Gu Ness sat down again, drank a sip of tea, and asked:
"Tell me."
"Hey, didn't you bring it?"
"that's it?"
"Yes, that's all."
Gu Neisi's face darkened, "Bullshit, these things are only worth more than 400,000 gold coins, please speak properly."
Ian smiled, "What if we make these into sixth-, seventh-, or even eighth-level pills?"
"Of course there is no problem. An eighth-level pill can cost hundreds of billions. Do you mean you can refine pills? That's not right. With your current level of cultivation, it's impossible for you to refine a sixth-level pill."
