Protect Our Clan Leader

Capítulo 2408: Chapter 30: Shouzhe! Grandpa of Fortune_3

Fortunately, most prominent families have the habit of “hoarding money for emergencies,” so, at least for now, there’s no particularly obvious inflation occurring.

But this is not a long-term solution. If they cannot trade the hoarded goods and exchange them for more materials to absorb everyone’s “accumulated wealth,” continuous inflation pressure over the years will eventually lead to inflation, and over time, an economic collapse is not impossible.

Wang Shouzhe carefully reviewed the contract, nodding slightly, “Overall it’s alright, but after completing the first step of business, we need to accelerate the sale of White Jade Spiritual Rice. The pressure from our various Spirit Rice inventories is too great now.”

Moreover, the inventory is not without consumption. By building warehouses and using formations to isolate them, it is indeed possible to preserve Spirit Rice for a long time while maintaining its quality from degrading. However, the longer the time, the greater the formation’s consumption, and the costs are not small, and inventory management will also have wastage.

“Yes, young master.” Ji Yueer nodded in agreement and then proposed another issue, “But the most critical problem at the moment is that we lack large transportation tools capable of virtual transportation. Additionally, we need to build a Sky-Port in the Realm of Ruin to facilitate hoarding.”

“For large transportation tools, the best option is the [Sea of Clouds Whale Vessel].” Wang Shouzhe had obviously considered this matter before. “I heard Si Wuyou introduced it before; the [Sea of Clouds Whale Vessel] is specially used for transporting bulk goods, capable of shuttling through the void for ultra-long-distance transportation. A giant Sea of Clouds Whale Vessel can transport thousands of ‘ships’ of materials at once.”

When Wang Shouzhe first heard about such giant transportation tools, he was quite shocked.

What is the concept of a thousand ships? This is equivalent to transporting tens of millions of tons of materials in one go!

However, the production difficulty and price of such giant transportation tools are also extremely astonishing, not something ordinary people can acquire.

“I also mentioned this matter to Crown Prince Yuan Zheng, but the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty only has a few small Sea of Clouds Whale Vessels, each capable of transporting a hundred shiploads of goods at once,” Ji Yueer said. “To prevent exposure, we need to have our own Sea of Clouds Whale Vessel, and even the crew must be our own people.”

“Then let Tiange, holding the [Divine Treasure Hall’s Distinguished Guest’s Order], go find Pavilion Master Yumei to secure a purchase channel,” Wang Shouzhe ordered, “I believe Tiange can manage this negotiation better than I can.”

“Understood, young master.” Yun Tiange nodded, “I’ll follow up on this matter later.”

This is the young master’s standard.

Any young master of a prominent family naturally has a large number of subordinates at his disposal. If the noble young master makes appearances personally everywhere, it would only reduce his mystique and value. Instead, sending a bunch of subordinates to handle matters will indirectly elevate Shouzhe’s status, making it less likely for people to suspect.

“Yuling, take Cai Youdao on a trip to the Realm of Ruin to clear the navigation routes,” Wang Shouzhe instructed further, “and while you’re at it, observe and test his character and background to see if he is worth trusting and utilizing.”

“Alright.” Jiang Yuling agreed, “I’ll handle this matter.”

After that, they discussed other aspects of the deployment, and over two hours later, everything was finally settled.

Next comes the specific implementation.

Jiang Yuling and Ji Yueer were forcefully urged out of the Carry-on Cave Mansion by Yun Tiange.

…

At the same time.

In outer-space Void.

Super Space Corridor Ruins.

Unbeknownst to anyone at some point, new visitors arrived in this originally seldom-visited star region.

This time, the visitors were a Demonic Clan army.

This demonic army had been here for quite some time. During this period, these demonic armies had been continuously eliminating void creatures and clearing the ruins, seemingly searching for something.

It was apparent that this demonic army was sent by the Nine Hells Demon God to find and repair the Super Space Corridor Signal Tower.

And the leader of this demonic army was the Black Feather Demon God.

On this day.

The Black Feather Demon God, leading a demonic army, had just cleared out a Void Dark Crow’s nest.

Suddenly.

A Demonic King rushed over from a distance, excitedly saying, “Master, we’ve found it!”

The Black Feather Demon God’s eyes lit up, “The Signal Tower has been found?!”

“Yes, Demonic God,” the Demonic King said, looking eager to claim credit, “It’s right within the Void Insect Nest ahead, encased in the insect wax secreted by the Void Insect Clan, with only a small part exposed. We only noticed something unusual after clearing out the Void Insect Clan…”

The Black Feather Demon God had no interest in hearing more, interrupted it directly, “Lead the way.”

“Yes, Master.”

The Demonic King quickly adjusted and led the way ahead.

Soon, the Black Feather Demon God was brought before a gigantic insect nest.

This insect nest resembled a massive cylindrical structure, its surface covered with a yellow-brown semi-transparent waxy substance, densely packed with holes, with only a broken black spire exposed at the top.

The Black Feather Demon God flew up, closely inspecting for a long time, and after carefully discerning the damaged demonic runes on the spire, finally confirmed that this was indeed the Signal Tower.

Void Insect Clan refers to a category of fierce beasts that are insects active within the Void, with numerous types and extremely complex classifications. Even those who study them deeply may not recognize all Void Insect Clans. But regardless of the number of types, they generally have some common characteristics.

One type among them likes to build nests.
