Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1423 - 3: Epic Choices, Da Ye Dynasty, Star Snow Pass!_2

"Yes."

After a pause, Luo Hou King still asked: "Your Majesty seems restless, is there something troubling you?"

Ji Che shook his head: "No."

Actually, Ji Che thought of the Reincarnation Temple that Zhao Xing had mentioned to him.

"Even in the Reincarnation Realm, there is no freedom. One would be watched by the Reincarnation Temple... Today I promulgate the Spiritual Energy Law, prohibiting those sect world powerful individuals from ascending through spiritual energy, how similar it is."

"However, I listened to my elder brother's advice to concentrate and distribute resources to help the Great Zhou stand firm in the universe, but what is the purpose of those superpowers of the Reincarnation Temple?"

Ji Che shook his head, no longer thinking about distant matters.

For now, it's still uncertain whether the Great Zhou can successfully reach within the Yuanhai Ancient Country.

In the seventh year of Taishi, Zhao Xing arranged for his family to sleep, Zhao Ruide, Mrs. Cai, Zhao Zheng, Zhao Chuanzong entered the sleep, while his two sisters had followed their husband's family into sleep since the second year of Taishi.

In the eighth year of Taishi.

Zhao Xing convened high-grade powerful individuals from the Three Sects' Minister of Agriculture to formulate the "Native Species Plan", with Ji Che, Luo Hou King, and other chief officials present to listen.

"Though our dynasty has some savings, if we only consume without replenishing, we will soon spend all our money once we enter the Xuanling Star Domain."

"The Spiritual Energy Law is about conserving resources, while the Native Species Plan is about generating resources."

Zhao Xing explained this plan.

"Our Xuanhuang Realm possesses specialties that other places don't have. Although the quality is not high, due to their rarity, some items can be sold to make money."

"While the earnings are not much, and the profit is small, at least it gives our Great Zhou a livelihood."

Junior Minister of Agriculture Chen Yu asked curiously: "Sir, what counts as Xuanhuang Realm's specialties?"

The others, including Ji Che and Luo Hou King, also looked over.

Currently, in the Xuanhuang Realm, even treasure-level items exceed fifty thousand kinds; which are 'specialties' and which are not found in the universe, they really don't know.

Zhao Xing said: "Specialties are divided into two categories: 'one is non-renewable resources', such as various mineral resources. There is a rare item named Xuanhuang Primordial Spirit Stone, which derives from the Heavenly Realm."

"This crystal ore is half primordial energy and half spiritual energy, both coexisting, a very unique structure."

"Its practical value is average, but it has high research value. If sold to artifact refining families or dedicated research institutions, then one of those veins excavated from the Heavenly Realm could be sold for one high-grade Star Dao Soldier, or even a top-grade one."

"Secondly, there is the Dragon Origin Ore unique to the Xuanhuang Realm, produced in the Dragon Court Ancient Land, it is the Dragon Clan's accompanying ore, containing substances similar to the Dragon Clan Essence within the crystal ore. But due to lack of scarcity, if sold to certain pill-refining forces, or beast-taming forces, it can fetch a value exceeding its intrinsic worth."

"These items, I collectively call them 'Deserted Territory Ore'."

"Many forces are interested in Deserted Territory Ore, because perhaps they can synthesize high-value treasures from some unremarkable low-end items. Or refine advanced medicines or create mighty Daoist Soldiers."

The quality of items Zhao Xing mentioned earlier isn't particularly high; it mainly hinges on 'research value'. Among the most valuable things from the dynasties ascended from the Desolate Domain are these 'native mineral resources'.

"However, such items are limited in number; once they're sold, there are no more. They can't be our Great Zhou's livelihood."

"What can be our livelihood is the second kind: 'renewable resources'."

"One is the native plant species unique to the Xuanhuang Realm, and the other is native animals."

Zhao Xing explained: "The principle is similar to the first kind, so I won't elaborate much."

"Promulgating the Spiritual Energy Law is mainly to cultivate the growth of native species, allowing our Great Zhou to accumulate some wealth as we navigate through the void."

"Of course, if upon reaching within the Yuanhai Ancient Country's territory, we discover the actual situation is different from our expectation, and items don't sell well, then we can directly sell the spiritual energy condensed into Spiritual Liquid or Spirit Crystals. But this is the cheapest method, basically without profit."

In the Spiritual Energy Star Domain, spiritual energy is abundant. Condensing spiritual energy into Spiritual Liquid or Spirit Crystals is merely for convenient carrying; this technique can't even be considered as a technique, it's just pure labor work, hence, no profit to speak of.

The voyage is expected to last five hundred to one thousand years. Zhao Xing won't have the Great Zhou foolishly sleep, doing nothing, waiting until reaching the destination to start making a living; that would waste a lot of time.

Just for Old Yun, he has to fight for more time. After all, he's the one who called him out using 'Prophet's Prediction'.

"Grand Minister of Agriculture, breeding beasts and farming are both cheap primary industries. Can't we do some technical work?" Lu Ying asked. "Can Purple Bone, sir, maybe forge some divine weapons to sell?"

Swish swish swish~ everybody's gaze instantly gathered on Purple Bone.

As of now, Purple Bone is the Junior Director of the Great Zhou, though he doesn't care about this position; he's just hitching a ride.

Purple Bone doesn't intend to contribute to the Great Zhou; his main focus is watching elder brother Zhao Xing's attitude.

"If the Grand Minister thinks I can do it, I'll do it." Seeing everyone's gaze, Purple Bone stated his stance.

Zhao Xing shook his head: "The technology Purple Bone possesses is inherited from Putta, Putta is from Purple God Mansion. Before Purple Bone acknowledges his lineage and returns to his sect, such actions are very risky."

"Moreover, during our time within the Boundary Boat, many materials are lacking. Even if Purple Bone intends to craft items, certain key materials from the universe are missing."
