Chapter 127: Being Fleeced by the Great Elder

Regarding Yu Xiaogang, Jerry thought about it; his fate had already changed, and the previous layout was completely useless. He only thought about Cultivation now and would no longer train troops for the Heaven Dou Empire. Even so, Jerry was not afraid. When the time came that they absolutely had to meet on the battlefield, he could just push Bibi Dong to the front. Let Bibi Dong take the blame, and he would play the good guy. Perfect!

"Master seems really different now!" Xiao Wu said.

"He is indeed different. His path of Cultivation was broken before, so he went to study theory to gain a good reputation. Now the Spirit Hall has allowed him to pick up the path of Cultivation again, and his mindset has changed. This world is just like this; who would be willing to be an ordinary person if they could cultivate!" Jerry said.

"Zhuqing has returned. She said if you have time, go to the Star Luo Empire once; there are some things she needs to consult you about!" Xiao Wu said.

"Oh! Weren't all the management materials and development plans given to her? Plus there are twelve Title Douluo helping, could there still be something she can't handle!" Jerry said.

"Nonsense, do you think everyone is like you? To be honest, Zhuqing is even a little younger than us." Xiao Wu said.

"Yeah, but time really passes quickly. In the blink of an eye, we are almost seventeen." Jerry sighed.

"By the way, the National Spirit Master Competition, which is held every three years, is supposed to be prepared for soon, but now the other countries don't want to participate!" Xiao Wu said.

"The National Spirit Master Competition, this is a good thing. It allows everyone to see the Cultivation speed of others and compete with each other, which is beneficial to the development of the Spirit Master world!" Jerry said.

"Are they all coming to witness the power of the Spirit Hall? It has been first for three consecutive sessions, and this session is even more impossible to hold. Every country has spies planted in the Spirit Hall Academy. Now there are a bunch of Soul King level senior students, while the Spirit Masters of other countries have very few Soul Ancestors, so how can they compete!" Xiao Wu said.

"Since they won't participate, that's fine! We'll do it ourselves! By the way, I'll go tell the Great Elder." After Jerry finished speaking, he was about to go to the Great Elder's place.

"Don't forget about Zhuqing's matter!" Xiao Wu said.

"Alright, I know, I'm going to find the Great Elder first!"

Afterwards, Jerry came to the Elder Hall and saw the Great Elder praying to the statue of the Angel God.

"Great Elder, I have something to find you for. You are praying again, and you can't hear anything, why bother!" Jerry said with a smile.

"You! Sigh! I'm used to it, forget it, what do you want with me!" The Great Elder also knew that the Angel God had fallen and could no longer hear his prayers, but it was a habit of many years to pray every day, and he hadn't changed it for a while.

"Let me tell you about the Spirit Master Competition. Now other countries are not participating! It's a pity to lose a continental grand event, so I want to do something new!" Jerry said.

"Oh! What new thing!"

"First, I plan to set up an arena in the Spirit Hall and put a leaderboard on the stage! For Spirit Masters of every realm, one hundred people will be on the leaderboard, and everyone can participate. At that time, we will set up some rewards and titles, and I expect many people will challenge this leaderboard!"

"Sounds interesting, but is there any use for it?"

"There is. Look, there will be a registration fee for challenges, right? You need tickets to watch, right? There are so many advertisements around the arena that need advertising fees, right? And if we get a title sponsor, the sponsorship fee won't be small either! By then, the Spirit Masters will have gained fame, and we in the Spirit Hall will have made money, right? We have started to be short of money again recently; with a large population, the consumption is also high."

"Before, the Spirit Hall didn't have money, so we created points. Too many points were issued at that time, and this is a hole that needs to be filled. In the future, the total number of points will no longer change; otherwise, if we add points ourselves every time we do something, a financial crisis will happen sooner or later. It will be troublesome if there are points but nothing to buy, so we need to fill this hole now!"

"So there is this drawback. I thought the Spirit Hall held the lifeline of money and could have as much as it wanted!" the Great Elder said.

"If it weren't for filling this hole, would I have worked myself to death making so many Spirit Guidance Devices! To be honest, the Spirit Hall still owes me my own money! When will the Great Elder settle it!" After Jerry finished speaking, he looked at the Great Elder with a smile.

"Jerry, look, isn't this being a stranger? I already said that when Bibi Dong comes out of seclusion, I will appoint you as the Saint Son. By then, the Spirit Hall will be yours, do you still care about this little bit of money!" the Great Elder said.

"Great Elder, you really know how to paint a big picture!" Jerry said.

"You just said first, what about second?"

"The second is to hold a Spirit Guidance Car race! At that time, anyone with a car can sign up to participate, and they must provide their own vehicles! See if it can drive the sales of Spirit Guidance Cars. The competition can also make a lot of money, and then we can add betting to make even more!"

"Fine, I have no opinion, then you go do it!"

"No, Great Elder, I don't have enough people under me! Now the Business Department and the Development Department are short-staffed, and ordinary people can't do many things. Isn't this why I'm asking you for people! Look at the Elder Council, besides a few titled elders, aren't there so many Elders idling every day?" Jerry said.

"So you have this idea. Those Elders also need to Cultivate. Anyway, I agree, but whether you can persuade the Elders, you need to go yourself!" the Great Elder said.

"Don't do that, Great Elder, you issue an order, and they will listen to you!" Jerry said.

"Go, go, go. Your master has offended a bunch of people. If I make them listen to your orders, do you think they won't have complaints?"

"Complaints, right? I'll pay, it will definitely be worth it!" Jerry said.

"Is that so? Then that's fine! It's settled!" the Great Elder said.

"Great Elder, why do I feel like you are cheating me out of my money?" Jerry said.

"Is there? How is that possible, you're overthinking it! Hurry up and go do your business!" the Great Elder said impatiently. To be honest, this guy Jerry just wanted free labor. It was fine before, as he didn't have to pay wages, but ever since Jerry created a salary system, the money for the Elder Hall now came out of his own pocket.

If he didn't fleece some from Jerry, the Elder Hall would be dragged down sooner or later. Jerry had so many industries, all of which were profitable big projects. Although most of them were invested in the construction of Wuhun City, Jerry really had money in his hands!

This time, giving all the Elders under the Elder Hall to Jerry to use meant he wouldn't have to pay their salaries in the future. Thinking of this, the Great Elder revealed a sly smile!

Jerry, who returned home, thought about it more and more, and it felt wrong. He had been tricked by the Great Elder. Originally, the intention of finding the Great Elder was to get free labor, but now he had to pay for it himself. Using the bunch of Elders under the Elder Hall would cost quite a bit!

This Great Elder agreed immediately upon hearing that he would pay. This was dumping all the historical legacy problems onto him! How cunning!

Forget it, Zhuqing is still waiting for me, and she even had Xiao Wu call me over. It seems there really is something. I'll write the plan and let my master handle it! My master is now the teacher of many people, and these Elders really can't handle my master. Master, you've worked hard! Master, you've been burdened!

Chrysanthemum Douluo had just finished a class and was sitting in his office.

Achoo, achoo, achoo, he sneezed three times in a row!

Chrysanthemum Douluo was a bit puzzled. With my cultivation level, I can still catch a cold?
