Selling competition spots and planning economic industries
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
Shen Fan had a good impression of Cang Chenfeng.
Although they had only met twice.
“That… I saw you having a conflict with Zhuo Feifan just now, and you said you would only sell him the competition slot if he named his price. I was wondering if you really have an intention to sell your competition slot?”
Cang Chenfeng asked, somewhat embarrassed.
After all, Shen Fan had just gone through a life-and-death challenge to secure that slot.
“You want to buy my competition slot?” Shen Fan immediately understood.
“If you find it difficult, then forget it, I was just asking!” Cang Chenfeng forced a smile.
“Hehe! How much are you willing to offer?” Shen Fan asked with interest.
“Are you looking for Spirit Stones or Contribution Points?”
“Hmm! Contribution Points!” Shen Fan pondered slightly.
The most urgent matter was still to pay off the 800,000 Contribution Points.
Since he had joined Zhan Yue Peak, he probably wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.
Paying off the debt would also make it easier for him to act within the Tianxuan Sect.
“For Contribution Points, I can offer a maximum of 200,000!”
Cang Chenfeng said, gritting his teeth.
It was clear that this was his absolute limit.
“It seems this slot is very important to you!”
“It is quite important!”
Cang Chenfeng didn't state the reason, and Shen Fan didn't press him.
Then Shen Fan pondered slightly.
Selling the competition slot was indeed quite a good deal.
After all, if he went, he wouldn't be able to use some Divine Abilities, nor could he exert his full strength.
He definitely wouldn't get a good ranking.
It was better to sell it for a good price.
Secondly, during the Four Sects Tournament, there wouldn't be many Sect Disciples left.
It would be a good opportunity to visit the Mass Grave and see if there truly were substitute death skulls.
“Okay!”
Shen Fan agreed without hesitation.
“Really?”
Hearing this, Cang Chenfeng rubbed his ears in disbelief.
“You’re really willing to sell the slot to me?”
“Really!”
“That’s great!”
Cang Chenfeng was so excited he was incoherent, “I’ll go back now to gather the Contribution Points for you. Within three days, I’ll give you all 200,000 Contribution Points!”
“Go on!”
“Junior Brother, you can’t lie to me!”
Cang Chenfeng still said, somewhat disbelievingly.
“A man of his word, once spoken, cannot be unsaid. If I lie to you, come find me at Zhan Yue Peak!”
“Okay!”
...
...
Watching Cang Chenfeng leave like a gust of wind.
Qiao Linger walked over from a distance, puzzled.
“What made him so happy?”
“I sold the competition slot to him!”
“Ah?”
Qiao Linger immediately found it unbelievable.
“You’re not going to compete anymore?”
“I’ve thought it over. I wouldn’t get a good ranking if I went, and selling it can get me a lot of Contribution Points. I currently owe 800,000, and I hope to pay it off as soon as possible!”
Shen Fan’s answer made Qiao Linger feel it was reasonable.
Just then.
A thought flashed in her eyes: “Junior Brother, why don’t I sell my slot too? That way, I can help you pay off your debt!”
Hearing this, Shen Fan immediately felt a warmth in his heart.
Look!
What a considerate woman!
However, on second thought, Shen Fan still felt that selling Qiao Linger’s slot would bring greater practical benefits than competing.
Qiao Linger didn't want her Spirit Beast to get hurt, so she probably wouldn't get a good ranking either.
It was better to just sell it!
After a slight pause, Shen Fan said: “It’s not impossible, but I won’t take the money from the sale. Your Spirit Beast needs a lot of money, more than I do!”
“No way, your debt is the priority, helping you pay it off is the most important thing!”
The two of them began their affectionate bickering again.
...
...
Three days later, Cang Chenfeng found Shen Fan with a huge sum of money.
“How did you manage to get so many Contribution Points?”
Shen Fan was incredibly surprised by this.
“I am originally a Prince of Nanli, a small country affiliated with Great Li. My imperial father sent me to Cultivate immortals with the full power of the nation, and along with me came hundreds of accompanying miscellaneous service personnel. Some of them joined the Outer Sect, while others are still working at Miscellaneous Service Peak. I had them give me all their Contribution Points, and that’s how I gathered this money!”
“So that’s how it is!”
Shen Fan suddenly understood, but upon closer thought.
“But even then, it shouldn’t be enough to gather so much, right?”
“Hehe!”
Cang Chenfeng chuckled and explained: “It shouldn’t be possible, but our people at Miscellaneous Service Peak have their own business, which earns a lot of Contribution Points every year!”
“Oh? What kind of business?”
Shen Fan immediately became interested.
Zhan Yue Peak had no external businesses and no economic income. If there was a business that could compensate for this, it would be a good option for everyone at Zhan Yue Peak.
“Hehe!”
Cang Chenfeng scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.
“They are all some unsavory businesses. They each do what they are good at on Miscellaneous Service Peak, and over time, they accumulated so many Contribution Points!”
Shen Fan quickly explained: “I’m not being sarcastic! Pure curiosity!”
“It’s not that I can’t say, it’s just that they’re not presentable. For example, washing clothes and cooking for people, pedicures and shaves, and occasionally doing some work to help Outer Sect Disciples relieve stress, like finding some courtesans from the market. But rest assured, it’s all consensual, no coercion whatsoever!”
Cang Chenfeng’s words presented a stark contrast to Shen Fan. From his appearance, Cang Chenfeng should have been a carefree Jianghu wanderer.
Since he came from royalty, he should have been even more detached from worldly affairs.
Seemingly noticing Shen Fan’s confusion, Cang Chenfeng chuckled and explained: “No choice, on the path of Cultivation, wealth, companions, and methods are all important. It’s truly impossible without money!”
Hearing this, Shen Fan finally understood. He hadn’t expected Miscellaneous Service Peak to have such dealings; the waters were very deep!
However, Cang Chenfeng’s words gave Shen Fan an idea for making money.
That was to open a bathhouse in Miscellaneous Service Peak.
It would definitely make money.
Disciples of Miscellaneous Service Peak couldn't go down the mountain, and their daily work put them under immense pressure.
There was no place for them to release stress at all.
If a legitimate place for consumption could be established, it would definitely be profitable.
At that time, it might even stimulate consumption within the Inner and Outer Sects.
Most importantly, Shen Fan had Li Waner, the owner of Hongcui Brothel.
Having her help train some professional technicians would definitely not be a problem.
This idea rapidly formed in his mind, and in the blink of an eye, a perfect plan took shape.
Shen Fan immediately said: “Senior Brother, do you have any thoughts on collaborating?”
Cang Chenfeng had people, Shen Fan would provide the technology, plus Xue Hanzhou’s backing to ensure safety.
The bathhouse would definitely successfully open within the Sect.
“How so?” Cang Chenfeng asked curiously.
Then, Shen Fan told Cang Chenfeng his idea.
“The idea is good, but will the Sect allow it?”
Cang Chenfeng asked, troubled.
“Our people doing these things are also very cautious, afraid of being discovered!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll give you a ten percent rebate. You provide the manpower, I provide the technology, and when we bring Xue Hanzhou in, we’ll definitely make a profit!”
Shen Fan said confidently.
“If that’s truly the case, then absolutely no problem! I’ll provide the manpower!”
Cang Chenfeng said confidently.
“Alright! It’s decided then. You go prepare, and let me know whenever you need anything!”
Shen Fan immediately extended his hand and shook Cang Chenfeng’s, reaching a preliminary cooperation.
Then, Shen Fan changed the subject and asked; “My Senior Sister Qiao Linger also wants to sell her competition slot. Can you help her inquire?”
“Ah?”
Cang Chenfeng was stunned: “I already knew your Zhan Yue Peak had no economic income, but I didn’t expect you to be so poor, to this extent?”
