The Sacred Land Is Going Bankrupt, I Invented a Mobile Phone!-Chapter 268
Chapter 268: Breakthrough! The Supreme Great Sect Is About to Go Bankrupt! (Part 1)
The issue of home loans could be discussed later.
But was it not necessary to hoard a batch of residences in the immortal cities first?
Once the home loans were introduced, property prices would soar, and there would be huge profits.
If the market was speculated, the prices of these residences would skyrocket even further.
However, after pondering for a moment, Ye Chen shook off the thought.
For most cultivators, cultivation was already hard enough.
If he started speculating on residences, it would be too much.
So, just introducing home loans would suffice.
As for the cultivation loans, they still needed time to develop.
For now, there wasn’t much to see.
Therefore, he decided to enter seclusion first.
He would deal with things after his breakthrough.
After thinking it through, Ye Chen looked at the Foreign Affairs Elder and asked, “How are Elder Wang Changchun and Elder Chen doing?”
Upon hearing this, the Foreign Affairs Elder quickly reported, “The two elders have already made contact with the experts from the Supreme Sword Sect.
“The location for the teleportation array has also been settled.
“The teleportation array is expected to cost ten million high-grade spirit stones.”
“Because the distance is too far, the difficulty of setting it up is extremely high. It’s estimated to take six months.”
The Foreign Affairs Elder was in awe as he spoke.
An investment of ten million high-grade spirit stones.
Not even the forces in the entire Great Yan Province, or even the Mingwang Province, had ever managed something like this.
Ye Chen, hearing this, nodded with satisfaction.
Six months was not an issue.
As for the ten million spirit stones, it wasn’t much for the current Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
The previous applications had already brought the Sacred Land’s monthly revenue to ten million.
Moreover, the sales of lottery tickets now averaged two billion tickets per day.
The Heavenly Origin Sacred Land took half of the sales.
In other words, the lottery brought in 200,000 high-grade spirit stones per day.
In a month, that was a whopping six million.
Now, with the cultivation loan business not yet profiting, the Sacred Land’s monthly income had already reached sixteen million.
Investing in several cross-state teleportation arrays wouldn’t even require a month’s revenue.
Once the Mingwang Province market was secured, Ye Chen planned to connect the other three continents as well.
Through the Internet and logistics networks, raw materials, products, and finance would flow freely across the entire cultivation world.

After discussing a few more details, the Foreign Affairs Elder left.
Ye Chen then headed to his residence to inform his master.
Upon arriving at the residence, Ye Chen saw his master with a pensive expression on her delicate face, as if painted in a picture.
At one moment, she was standing with her hands on her hips, another moment she was resting her chin on her hand, and then she was tugging at her hair.
She looked utterly adorable.
Before her in the void, a string of numbers floated.
“Master, you’ve bought so many lottery tickets, don’t tell me you still haven’t won a single time?” Ye Chen asked helplessly.
Nangong Wan seemed to be a lottery jinx.
There had been over a dozen draws, and Nangong Wan had bought hundreds of tickets each time.
Yet she hadn’t even won a consolation prize.
It was truly absurd.
Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Nangong Wan waved her hand, and the numbers in the void dissipated.
Then, with a justified tone, she said, “I’m just practicing my deduction techniques. I’m not after the lottery.
“I haven’t bought a lottery ticket in a long time.”
Ye Chen’s mouth twitched.
If I didn’t have access to the back-end purchase records, I’d have believed you.
But Ye Chen decided not to provoke his master further and smiled as he said, “Master, I’m going to enter seclusion for a while.”
Upon hearing this, Nangong Wan frowned slightly, her eyes filled with concern. “Why are you going into seclusion again? Didn’t you just break through to the mid-stage Deity Transformation a few months ago?
“Could it be that you’ve advanced too quickly, and your foundation has become unstable?”
Feeling his master’s concern, Ye Chen shook his head. “No, after my battle with the Golden Lion King, I had some insights and feel that I’m about to break through again!”
Hearing that Ye Chen was fine, Nangong Wan was relieved.
“Alright then, you’re probably just going to practice some secret arts.
“Breakthrough again? Why don’t you just ascend to immortality while you’re at it?” Nangong Wan didn’t believe it at all.
Although Ye Chen’s speed of breaking through was impressive, it had only been two months since he killed the Golden Lion King.
Such a short time, how could Ye Chen possibly break through again? fгeewebnovёl.com
Ye Chen replied seriously, “Ascending isn’t impossible. I just can’t bear to leave you, Master.”
Nangong Wan’s face flushed red as she lightly spat, “Hurry up and go. You’re so annoying.”
Ye Chen smiled slightly, “Master, how about we make a bet?
“If I don’t break through, I’ll give you a 200,000 spirit stone cultivation loan, and I’ll even help you repay it every month!”
Upon hearing this, Nangong Wan’s eyes instantly lit up.
A 200,000 spirit stone loan?
And Ye Chen would help repay it every month?
How was this different from getting 200,000 high-grade spirit stones every month?
That would be 2.4 million in a year.
Nangong Wan was tempted, but her eyes showed a bit of doubt. “Really?”
Ye Chen smiled and nodded earnestly, “Of course it’s true.”
Before Nangong Wan could get too excited, Ye Chen added, “Of course, that’s if I don’t break through.
“But if I do break through, then you’ll have to call me…”
The last few words, Ye Chen transmitted directly into Nangong Wan’s ears.
After hearing them, her eyes widened, and her face became even redder than a sunset. “You… you… disobedient disciple!”
Ye Chen laughed heartily. “So, Master, are you going to bet? If not, then forget it.”
Nangong Wan stared at him with a flushed face.
Although the title Ye Chen wanted her to use was incredibly embarrassing, there was no way he could break through this quickly.
Ye Chen was likely just being filial, gifting spirit stones to his master.
Thus, Nangong Wan hesitated for a long time before agreeing.
However, thinking of Ye Chen’s talent, Nangong Wan still felt uneasy and said seriously, “You can’t stay in seclusion for too long this time, no more than six months!
“If you exceed six months, it counts as my win.”
Ye Chen readily agreed.
Nangong Wan was completely relieved now.
The worry on her face disappeared, replaced by a joyful expression, as if spring had arrived.
She had already begun thinking about how to spend the 200,000 spirit stones each month.
Ye Chen also left with a smile, flying toward the forbidden area.
Before entering the forbidden area, Ye Chen thought of Gu Yunyun.
Gu Yunyun had been in seclusion for almost a year.
She should be emerging soon.
Gu Yunuun was traditional.
Although they had been close before, she upheld certain boundaries.
Now that the master had returned, the two could finally hold the ceremony.
After the ceremony, they could do other things.
