You State, Xuanmiao City

Lin Jiang didn’t stay in North State for long, he had a few meals with the people from the Lin family and then left. Small Shadiao wanted to go to the Snow Demon tribe, but Lin Jiang firmly refused. On the surface, the reason was that he was afraid Small Shadiao would harm his sisters-in-law, but the real reason was that Lin Jiang was afraid of danger and needed Small Shadiao’s protection on the way.

Along with Lin Jiang, there were over twenty people from the Lin family who came back. There were old employees like Lin Cunjian, as well as some new ones. Gradually, the Lin family had more than two hundred people in Lin Jiang’s business, and about eighty percent of the entire business belonged to the Lin family.

This was also a mutual benefit and supervision between Lin Jiang and the Lin family. After all, every year Lin Jiang’s business handled at least four to five billion in transactions. No one could afford not to be cautious.

Back in Xuanmiao City, Lin Jiang arranged jobs for Lin Cunjian and the others. Worth mentioning is that Lin Jiang had bought a lot of houses earlier, and to avoid wasting them, he let the employees live in them for free. Now it was time to take them back.

After living there for over ten years, collecting the houses would surely have small issues. Some might feel resentful or dissatisfied, while others might want to claim them for themselves. Therefore, Lin Jiang’s first task for Lin Cunjian and the others was to reclaim the houses, and he specifically told them that it was giving face for the Lin family to do it themselves. Anyone who didn’t show respect would have to face the consequences with Lin Jiang.

Lin Jiang didn’t need to worry about such trivial matters. He found Lin Dongyan and obtained a pill, then went into seclusion.

In the blink of an eye, two months had passed and Lin Jiang woke up from seclusion, taking a long breath.

"No wonder Lin Batian was so cautious about the pill. It’s truly a great temptation and a challenge to human nature."

Lin Jiang murmured to himself, after two months of seclusion, surpassing the hardship he had endured in his previous ten years of cultivation. Moreover, during those ten years, he had also been addicted to drugs. Now, he had advanced even further in the later stage of the golden core.

This kind of cultivation speed was too fast. Even with Lin Jiang’s talent, it would only take seven to eight years to reach the peak of the golden core, saving decades of cultivation time, as long as there were enough elixirs.

For cultivators, this kind of thing was bigger than any temptation. Not many people dared to guarantee that they could resist it. This was human nature, which could not withstand tests and challenges.

"Uncle, how do you feel?"

Coming to Lin Dongyan’s house once again, Lin Dongyan asked.

"Wonderful, but terrifying."

"Yes, cultivation growth and increased strength are like poison to cultivators. It’s an addictive poison. It’s wonderful, but also very frightening."

"You need to advise the head of the family. It’s best not to spread this kind of elixir, even to the descendants of the Lin family. Don’t give it to too many people, and don’t even tell them what kind of elixir it is. Just let them consume it, and watch them assimilate it."

"I will. The Lin family is not lacking people who desire power."

"Not just a possibility, but a definite must. I’ll be honest with you. If the Lin family’s ship sinks one day, I won’t go down with them."

Lin Jiang said seriously. The Lin family has taken care of him, but he’s repaid them in his own way. However, he won’t be burying himself with the Lin family.

"Uncle, there’s no need to be like this. I haven’t seen a cultivator who hasn’t killed someone. Killing is killing, no difference."

"Was I talking about this matter?"

"Alright, I understand."

Lin Dongyan nodded. Originally, he wanted to persuade further, but now he stayed quiet, no longer necessary to persuade.

Lin Jiang stopped talking and left after a casual chat.

In the following days, Lin Jiang started to sell his properties. Since he wanted to manipulate house prices together with Zhou Huaiying and others, the selling process wasn’t fast. They discussed it and typically sold one or two properties per month.

However, this time’s speculative investment still made Lin Jiang a large profit. These properties in the East City area were worth millions of spirit stones, while Lin Jiang had previously acquired them for a third or even lower price.

In other words, if Lin Jiang sells a house, he can make millions of dollars in profit, even more for those luxury mansions, the huge profits are unimaginable.

"Boss, if you take away the house, what will my large family do? I already have twelve wives and concubines."

Wei Lin also walked up with a worried face. Lin Jiang took back his big mansion, so where will a large family like theirs live? They can’t have twelve wives and concubines sharing one room, his back can’t take it.

"Don’t act innocent, do you think I don’t know about the things you did? You secretly bought five or six houses, where will you live?"

"Ah, you knew about that?"

"The people from the Xuanmiao City management office collect money from me every month, what do you think?"

Lin Jiang said, not only did he know that Wei Lin followed him to secretly invest in real estate, but he also knew that Wei Lin set up a business outside, imitating what he was doing. Lin Jiang just never exposed him.

Speaking of which, Taixu Sect is also in a miserable state. Lin Batian is not trustworthy, he already sold out the Taixu Sect’s techniques and secrets, not only to the Five Elements Sect but also some ended up in Lin Jiang’s hands.

So deep down, Lin Jiang sympathizes with Taixu Sect. Whatever small tricks Wei Lin does doesn’t affect his interests, so Lin Jiang naturally doesn’t care.

"Oh, I should have known better than to save this money. I can’t trick you any further."

"Does it feel good to take advantage of me?"

"You don’t understand the pleasure of taking advantage. It’s not about how much benefit you gain, but about the process. Just like with my wives, I didn’t spend any money, you know."

"Unfaithful man."

"Well, I’ll take that as a compliment."

Wei Lin shamelessly, he’s not afraid of others calling him an unfaithful man, others haven’t even had the chance to be unfaithful yet.

"I admit defeat to you, now get lost!"

"I won’t leave, I won’t leave. Hey, tell me about any opportunistic things going on. I’m poor and have a big family to support."

"Are you going to the Xuanmiao Tower to sell yourself?"

"If you go, I will go too. Who’s afraid of who?"

"My golden core is not valuable, but your Soul Changing is valuable. I believe many people would pay a high price to experience the freshness of Soul Changing."

"Makes sense, when I’m so broke that I can’t even afford a pot to cook, then I’ll go."

Wei Lin nodded, not feeling angry at all. When it comes to having thick skin, he’s never been afraid of anyone.

"Wow, my level of shamelessness can’t even compare to yours after a ten thousand years of practice."

"It’s natural, there’s no way around it, just like my beauty."

"Can you leave on your own?"

"No, really, I’m poor."

Wei Lin persisted relentlessly. He really didn’t want to leave, and he really was poor too. Despite having made quite a bit of money imitating Lin Jiang, he had to support the remaining members of the Taixu Sect. Currently, the Taixu Sect has at least a few thousand people left, unlike Lin Jiang, who only has himself and a bird.

"Unscrupulous tactics is not the right path. It’s all about relying on opportunities. If the opportunity doesn’t come, no matter how skilled you are, it’s useless. Don’t think you can get rich overnight."

"Boss, you shouldn’t bully people. My big brother told me that you’re a master at unscrupulous tactics and have made a lot of money from it."

"Small Shadiao doesn’t understand a thing. If unscrupulous tactics were so easy, why would I bother running a business honestly to make money?"

Lin Jiang said seriously, he did indeed make a lot of money through unscrupulous tactics, but he never considered it as the right path.

"Boss, can you teach me a few moves? What if they actually work?"

"You really want to do this?"

"Seriously, look at my face, I’m very serious."

"Alright, I’ll say it once."

"Go ahead, go ahead, I’ll remember it with the Image Saving Talisman."

"You find a sect, cooperate with them, and then claim a piece of land in their city. Build some houses and enclose them. Then, announce to the public that those who buy these houses can become disciples of the sect. The houses will be divided into three categories: the cheaper ones are for outer disciples, the more expensive ones are for inner disciples. If it’s very expensive, they can be introduced to the elder of the sect as a personal disciple.

The price at which the houses can be sold depends on the sect you find to cooperate with. If you find a good sect, even a rundown straw hut can be sold for millions of spirit stones. As for how the money will be divided, it’s something you need to negotiate with the sect. If this plan goes well, it can be replicated in different places. In less than a hundred years, I guarantee you’ll be incredibly wealthy."

Lin Jiang said, and Wei Lin next to him was completely dumbfounded. Could there really be such a scheme? Isn’t this a scam?

After finishing his words, Lin Jiang ignored him and walked away. He knew about countless schemes to deceive people. It all depends on how deceitful your heart is. If your heart is deceitful enough, you can make certain groups empty their six storage bags and carry a debt for a lifetime.
