Dragon Cultivation Town! By the bank of the Miasmic Sea!

Miasma loomed over the area all year-round.

The town's buildings were arranged in a very special way. The town itself had a circular layout, its buildings spiraling inwards like a massive dragon. At the center, a spacious empty ground was encircled by the buildings.

Wang Ke quickly took his subordinates to one of the residences in the town.

"Wang Ke, you are filthy rich, aren’t you? You have a manor in the Dragon Cultivation Town too? One of Wang Clan's Residences?" Zhu Yan exclaimed in shock.

"Of course! Do you think I'm obsessed with women like you? Come on, collecting houses is all the craze nowadays!" Wang Ke said confidently.

"Collecting houses? Am I wrong for calling you nuts? I can build as many as I want!" Zhu Yan proclaimed.

"Bullsh*t! Houses in your Mortal Zone are worthless! The key factor is the location where they are built! Location, location, location! You understand? Do you know how hard it is to buy a house or land in a cultivation town?" Wang Ke said in disdain.

Zhu Yan: "............!"

There was no way for Zhu Yan to know that. He was too used to being an emperor, always drowned in luxury, never lacking a single thing.

Wang Ke wasn’t in the mood to explain more. Once they reached his residence, his men quickly exchanged information with their local colleagues. Soon after, a new batch of people went there and welcomed the party.

"Wang Ke, you got here already? It's only been half a month since I arrived!" Zhang Zhengdao welcomed Wang Ke.

"Clan Lord!" Second cousin-brother also went to greet them.

"Aiyo, who’s this? Such an ugly face!" Zhang Zhengdao looked at Zhu Yan in great shock.

Zhu Yan's face blackened.

"Him? Zhu Yan, of course. You should have seen him before!" Wang Ke answered.

"A demon?" Zhang Zhengdao was taken aback. "Why did you bring him here? You won’t be able to explain him away if a righteous disciple finds out!"

"I can manage. Enough talk; how many insurance plans have you sold so far?" Wang Ke was blunt.

Zhang Zhengdao: "..................!"

"You sold nothing? Haven’t you been here for two weeks or so already? I saw disciples of many immortal sects also arriving at the cultivation town when we got here! You haven’t sold any with so many potential customers?" Wang Ke questioned his partner fiercely.

"Do you think it's that easy?" Zhang Zhengdao retorted in frustration.

"What's so difficult? We have such an appealing product; are you sure no one wants it?" Wang Ke stared back at Zhang Zhengdao.

The latter laughed helplessly and replied, "I went and tried to persuade people into buying, but they said I was crazy. They said that no one believes in your product! A few ex-customers were outright slandering your insurance plan. I can't do much as things stand!"

"That's because you don't know how to sell it! I’ll show you how later!" Wang Ke said.

"Fine, fine. I’ll wait for your demonstration!" Zhang Zhengdao laughed.

Zhu Yan's eyes widened in disbelief, "Do you really think people would dumb enough to buy your insurance plans? Five thousand pounds of spirit stones just for a piece of useless paper?"

"It has nothing to do with you!" Wang Ke shot Zhu Yan a stare.

The latter’s face blackened again.

"Find a place for Zhu Yan to rest and leave him alone! Careful though, he’s a troublemaker. All of you should stay away from him; you too might get hit when lightning strikes him. Don't let him wander around either. If he does so, inform me immediately!" Wang Ke instructed his men.

"Understood!" his clan members responded.

"Humph!" Zhu Yan snorted before leaving the place.

I'm too troublesome for you? I wouldn't want to stay by your side, either!

Then Wang Ke looked at his Second cousin-brother, "Second cousin-brother, by right, all the immortal sects will be recruiting disciples during the Dragon Gate Assembly, but they will also start recruiting before the assembly starts if they encounter rare talents! You brought five hundred people; any good news during the past two weeks?"

"We have two hundred of the most talented Brocaded Guard youths recruited by immortal sects ahead of time; still, the remaining three hundred will require more time!" the latter reported.

"See? Look at my Second cousin-brother! How much has he done in just two weeks? What about you!" Wang Ke chided in disdain, "Zhang Zhengdao, I appointed you as chief executive of God Wang Company's insurance business because I had high hopes for you! Yet you achieved nothing so far?"

Zhang Zhengdao looked irritated. Your Second cousin-brother went and stuffed great talents into the immortal sects; of course, they’re happy to take them. But I'm trying to earn money out of nothing… Do you think it's that easy?

"Tell me then, what should I do?" Zhang Zhengdao said in frustration, "I tried my best!"

"What about my second senior apprentice-brother Tie Liuyun and that Zhao Si from Xiangcun village? Have they arrived?" Wang Ke asked. (TL: 'Xiangcun" is a pun alluding to a rural village in our world.)

"It's the Xiangcun Sect! Not just a rural village! They arrived here quite some time ago; I've even met them! They helped with advertising the insurance plans, but…!" Zhang Zhengdao replied with a helpless smile.

"Invite them to my residence for a meal tomorrow! Tell them that I would like to ask for their help!" Wang Ke instructed his men.

"Understood!" his clan members responded.

Dragon Cultivation Town was going to host the Dragon Gate Assembly. That was why, other than the ordinary residents, all the immortal sect’s disciples had their own places to camp.

Wang Ke entered a great hall to rest. Zhang Zhengdao followed, then moved closer.

"Wang Ke, you’ll treat them to a meal?" Zhang Zhengdao asked curiously.

"Of course! I'm running out of money!" Wang Ke said, frowning.

Zhang Zhengdao: "..................!"

Not enough money?

"You must be kidding! Didn't you earn ten million pounds of spirit stones during the God Wang Company's opening ceremony? You are even richer than the average Astral Infant! And you say you don't have enough?" Zhang Zhengdao asked in disbelief.

"Of course! Haven’t you noticed the number of mouths I have to feed? Just consider the five hundred youths my Second cousin-brother brought here; they will be the main consumers of my spirit stones! They will use up a lot of spirit stones once they enter the immortal sects and their cultivation advances faster!" Wang Ke said after sipping his tea.

"Them? They’ve already entered the immortal sects, but you still provide for them?" Zhang Zhengdao was puzzled.

"They are still staff members of my God Wang Company. So what if they entered the immortal sects? Do I just stop paying their salaries? Would they simply stop obeying me? They’ll be doing many big things for me while being in those immortal sects! How can they help me with my agenda if they lose out on their cultivation?" Wang Ke said.

"But there's no need to do that! How many spirit stones will that cost you! How can you be willing to spend that much! Aren't you an iron rooster?"

"How many times have I told you? I'm only prudent, not petty! Succeeding in a capitalist market requires investment in the early stages, which feels like throwing money away; but when the time comes… I will reap a bountiful harvest! I am indeed spending a lot of money on them, but they will be on the right track when the time is ripe. You understand?" Wang Ke explained in disdain.

Zhang Zhengdao looked a little annoyed, "I don't understand economics or whatever you said, but I roughly get the point!"

"Oh?" Wang Ke was surprised. You have an idea of what my plans are?

"You have your eyes on the spirit mountains in the major immortal sects, right? That's why you sent your men to become spies. When the time comes, you will dig up their spirit mountains and stuff your pockets, right?" Zhang Zhengdao said, pointing his finger at the other.

Wang Ke was astonished. Damn, I didn't know Zhang Zhengdao understood me so well! He knows about my ultimate goal?

"Haha, am I right?" Zhang Zhengdao asked proudly.

"Humph!" Wang Ke drank his tea while ignoring Zhang Zhengdao's boasting.

"But what's the use of inviting Tie Liuyun and Zhao Si here?" Zhang Zhengdao asked curiously, "They already bought your insurance plan. How can you shear them a second time?" Zhang Zhengdao asked curiously.

"I've thought about it. You didn't sell even one insurance plan over the past two weeks; maybe you’re not completely at fault!" Wang Ke said with a frown.

"Oh?"

"On one hand, you have no sales experience. On the other hand, you lack a good opportunity!" Wang Ke continued.

"Opportunity?"

"It's coming soon. Be patient!" Wang Ke explained further, "However, before it comes, I need to expand my God Wang Company's influence! That, and increase the overall market size!" Wang Ke answered.

"Many are saying that God Wang Company is a fraud. How do you plan on increasing your influence? How are you going to increase the market size?" Zhang Zhengdao asked in a daze.

"Bullsh*t! Who said my company is a fraud? We are an official company!" Wang Ke shot Zhu Yan a stare.

"Fine, fine, If you say so; I have no way to object. But the thing is, how do we increase our influence?" Zhang Zhengdao wondered.

"Build a tower!" said Wang Ke as he looked outside the window expectantly.

"Ahh?"

-------------

The following day, at Wang Ke's residence in the Dragon Cultivation Town—

Wang Ke set up a feast for Tie Liuyun and Zhao Si. But he didn't expect to welcome such a huge crowd.

"Hahaha, junior brother, you arrived yesterday? Why didn't you come and visit me first!" Tie Liuyun laughed heartily as he walked up to Wang Ke.

"Brother Wang, look! See who we brought to see you!" Zhao Si also walked over.

Behind him followed a throng of people Wang Ke didn't recognize. He was a little stunned by the sight.

"Hahaha. Yesterday I heard that you invited Zhao Si for the feast too; that's why I made special arrangements to call everyone we know in the Dragon Cultivation Town for a gathering!" Tie Liuyun explained.

"Second senior brother, these are?" Wang Ke asked.

"Greetings, Brother Wang. You still look good since we bid our farewells at Divine Dragon Island!" someone in the crowd said.

"You... You guys were the prisoners back on the island?" Wang Ke was surprised.

The surprise guests chuckled and said, "Hahahaha, Brother Wang, thank you for saving our lives! Please forgive us for coming uninvited!"

Wang Ke replied warmly, "Hahaha, you are being too courteous! It's an honor to see you all! Everyone, please!"

He immediately instructed his subordinates, "Quick, prepare more dishes!"

Zhang Zhengdao felt puzzled. Saved their lives? What does that mean? You guys are all Golden Core cultivators! How could Wang Ke save you?

"Brother Wang, I heard from Tie Liuyun that you’re selling something called the 'insurance plan'? Get one for me!"

"That's right. I want one of those too!"

"Me too!"

The crowd shouted passionately.
