Big Data Cultivation

Chapter 1405: Hearts in Turmoil



When it came to breaking circles, Feng Jun couldn't help but think of Dou Jiahui.

The two had been very close since childhood. Because Dou Jiahui was always looking out for him, Feng Jun rarely suffered any losses. Later, when Feng Jun made it big, he helped Dou Jiahui find a way to make money, and the latter was very grateful.

However, Dou Jiahui simply didn't want to cultivate. Feng Jun had hinted many times, but there was no reaction from him. This might be his attitude towards life, or maybe... he wasn't sure how to face the future.

After all, it had always been Dou Jiahui who looked after Feng Jun since childhood, and Feng Jun only helped him a bit in his studies.

Thinking this way might mean Feng Jun misunderstood Dou Jiahui, but if it was always about him since childhood, how could Dou Jiahui resist if he insisted on cultivation?

Just look at Gazi. When Feng Jun took him out, he hardly considered his feelings—after all, "I'm doing it for your own good."

Having said so much, it's not that Feng Jun doesn't want to give back to his hometown, but picking people there might be reliable, yet it also brings a lot of trouble, so he won't consider it in the short term.

While Gazi was distressed about selecting someone, Teacher Mei had already chosen someone, "I recommend my best friend's younger brother."

Feng Jun gave her a curious look, to which Li Shishi couldn't help but comment, "Not introducing your mom?"

The two had a mentor-mentee relationship, so they understood each other quite well.

Feng Jing glanced at her and shook her head slightly, "If my mom came, she might live a few years less. There's a cousin at home, but his character isn't great. I've been friends with this best friend for twenty years, and I'm quite familiar with her brother's character. He's a handsome guy."

As expected of Director Mei, she has a very clear understanding of human nature and is quite opinionated.

"Alright, as long as it's not too different," Feng Jun stood up, "You six should discuss the specifics yourselves. There are only three welfare positions this time, so don't fight too hard. It's mainly to give you more time for cultivation."

He then glanced at Zhang Caixin, "Caixin, discuss with Xiao Li how to quickly set up our Luohua Contribution Point System. Besides cultivating, everyone should also contribute to the manor."

What he meant by "contribute to the manor" was that everyone present was already contributing to the manor, just that their abilities and methods were limited. Yang Yuxin had contributed a lot because of her capabilities, but that didn't mean others weren't contributing.

So when Feng Jun said that, it was merely a suggestion—everyone needed to find ways to earn more resources and not take receiving resources as a given.

While they were still weak, he would support them, making sure that calling him "Boss" wasn't in vain. But once they had the ability, they needed to find their own way—including anyone they wanted to support for cultivation; they'd have to earn the resources themselves.

He had just left when Yang Yuxin spoke up, "Gazi, if you don't have a suitable person, can you recommend one for me?"

Gazi's face immediately fell, "Director Yang, if I introduce someone, I have to take on the responsibility."

"I'll take responsibility," Yang Yuxin said with a smile, "Consider it a personal favor, and I'll add a two billion cash compensation."

Gazi pondered upon hearing this, and truth be told, he's the poorest among the manor's core members, with just over two million in assets.

Whenever the manor distributed good stuff, such as Body Tempering Pills or Spirit Rice, he would offer them to his parents.

He often took some external jobs to earn hard-earned money, and his two million accumulated bit by bit.

In comparison, Li Shishi earned money with more ease. Although she wasn't related to Feng Jun, as the master's assistant, she infrequently had to bend the rules, and a little attention in her duties brought her lots of money.

For example, Tang Wangsun was formidable, a Great Heavenly Master of Maoshan, and even though his daughter had an unclear relationship with Feng Jun, Tang Tianshi would casually hand Li Shishi a bank card worth two hundred thousand when they met.

Gazi knew Li Shishi earned more than he did, but he honestly didn't mind. Firstly, the job was too time-consuming, too trivial, which would affect cultivation; secondly, it was about dealing with people and software, things he's not good at.

Everyone earns the kind of money they deserve. Gazi believes that cultivation is the right path, and as long as he follows Brother Jun, he won't go wrong.

Moreover, in the past two plus years since he left, he's made more than two million, which isn't a small amount, and the family conditions have greatly improved.

Reality proved his thoughts were correct. Li Shishi has money she doesn't even want to make anymore, hoping the manor recruits more people.

However, hearing for the first time someone offering two billion, he still shivered a bit—was money that easy to earn?

He was still dazed when Yu Qingzhu spoke up, "Brother Gazi, I'll offer five billion."

Yang Yuxin glanced at her and laughed, "Xiao Yu, stop messing around... what are you doing blindly raising the price?"

"I'm not blindly raising the price," Yu Qingzhu replied with a smile, "Recently, I earned five billion following the boss, and I just figured, holding onto this money doesn't feel right, so why not give it to Brother Gazi instead."

Yang Yuxin rolled her eyes. She actually knew about the five billion yuan matter; it was about targeting Bai Rui Pharmaceuticals. However, the little girl mentioning it did make her a bit embarrassed.

Zhang Caixin cleared her throat, "Well... I don't think it's suitable. Firstly, the boss didn't say the slots could be transferred. Secondly, the boss definitely doesn't want too much government involvement. Director Yang, two people in your family are already cultivating."

Li Shishi heard this and couldn't help but smile slightly—Director Yang, you say my Li family has many people, but your Yang Family isn't small either.

Of course, she didn't dare to openly mock the other party. Otherwise, not to mention Director Yang's secular influence, even Gu Jiahui, who is now at the eighth stage of the Mortal Shedding Realm, might soon become the second Qi-Cultivating Disciple in the manor after Zhang Caixin.

"Caixin, can you not be so rigid?" Yang Yuxin patiently explained. She wielded vast power in the secular world, but even she didn't dare to put on airs in front of Zhang Caixin. "If the law doesn't prohibit it, you can do it."

Zhang Caixin replied earnestly, "I think in Luohua, if it's not authorized by law, it's prohibited. That might be better."

Yang Yuxin was taken aback and genuinely a bit annoyed. She thought to herself, isn't this girl being too insensitive? If it weren't for Feng Jun appreciating you, you wouldn't even have the right to speak before me, you know?

During Luohua's development, how much effort did you contribute? And how much did I?

Usually, I tolerate and accommodate you, not even going to the backyard for cultivation—does that mean I'm afraid of you?

Yang Yuxin was one to respect seniority and hierarchy. Zhang Caixin was nearly "twenty years younger" than her. At this moment, she suppressed her discomfort, lightly clearing her throat, "Gazi, why don't you go and ask Master Feng?"

"If you ask, it definitely won't be allowed," Yu Qingzhu said with a laugh. "If you don't ask, and once it's done, the boss will tacitly approve... He's just that kind of person."

Zhang Caixin didn't expect that so many people wouldn't listen to her, the "second person in Luohua," and she angrily stood up, "I'll go ask the boss myself."

"Caixin," Sister Hong was about to stop her, but seeing her storm off, she just shook her head in amusement and thought, you've really offended someone this time, why not let Gazi go? So full of youthful vigor.

Yang Yuxin, however, glanced at Yu Qingzhu intentionally or unintentionally.

Yu Qingzhu, though young, understood the look—Director Yang wasn't angry about her bidding, but was conveying a message: Shouldn't some people's arrogance be curbed a bit?

However, what she was considering was—although Zhang Caixin was a bit inflated, she wasn't wrong on one point: Feng Jun was indeed worried about Luohua being infiltrated. With the Yu and Gu families' backgrounds, it's really not easy to explain clearly.

In fact, Yu Qingzhu was trying to fight for a chance for one of her cousins. The little rascal was good in every way, just not interested in studying. The family could pave the way for him, but given his temperament, even if he graduated from college, he wouldn't achieve much in a workplace.

She really just wanted to take care of her family a bit, but now... where could she find justice?

It was Xu Leigang, with his straightforwardness, who couldn't help but laugh seeing these changes, "The boss really knows how to mess with people, how many people will be scrambling to get in?"

Then he glanced at Yu Qingzhu, "I'll offer some advice you might not like: you really shouldn't push for it. The old man already stays in the manor, benefiting quite a lot. Xiao Yu, you're getting a bit impatient. Once you're in Qi Refinement, won't everything be negotiable?"

Yu Qingzhu smiled, "Thanks for the advice, Brother Lei Gang. I just feel that the five billion the boss gave is a bit hot to handle."

She's not someone with deep scheming—at least not at her age. Having just obtained the five billion, she felt a bit nervous. Encountering such an opportunity, if she didn't know to take advantage and bid up, then her intelligence would really be disappointing.

Gazi finally snapped out of his shock. He snorted coldly, "If the boss gave it to you, it's yours. You've got a bright future, don't strive for those illusory things for now. You'll understand one day that in the face of cultivation, everything else is fleeting."

He had indeed been dazed by the vast amount of money, but upon regaining his senses, he truly had the right to say this—nothing else, just the money he collected for the boss would likely surpass Li Shishi's.

Moreover, he considered himself qualified to say this. In Luohua Manor, he recognized Zhang Caixin as the second person and envied her talent, but if he really had to face off with her, he believed Brother Jun wouldn't necessarily side with her.

Yu Qingzhu glanced at him, smiled, and nodded, but in her heart, she started plotting: You're all impressive, I'll bide my time, and eventually, you'll all have to listen to me!

Just then, Feng Jing spoke up, "I feel like everyone's thinking has strayed a bit. The boss's original intent was to let everyone cultivate in peace, while giving some benefits to family and friends in the process. I suggest not constantly thinking about whether friends can cultivate; focus on your own cultivation first. As for relatives and friends... they have their own fates, and as long as we stay true to ourselves, that's enough."

"I agree with Director Mei," Wang Haifeng chimed in. "Serious cultivation is what truly matters. Oh... and remember to vote for my wife."

"Director Mei speaks the truth," Xu Leigang also nodded, "My little princess requests your votes."

Sister Hong's eyes slightly narrowed: This Teacher Mei, who usually doesn't say much, actually has a considerable influence?

Throughout this night, Luohua was filled with restless minds.
