My Master Knows It All

Cao Zhen discovered that the City Lord of Land Blast City is clearly much smarter than other ghosts.

It didn’t take long for the City Lord to figure it out.

She proactively asked, ”So, what about those cultivators who can’t get a complete Peace Command?”

Cao Zhen chuckled lightly, ”It’s simple. For instance, if it’s less than one Peace Command, we can count it as half a Peace Command. This way, they would feel they’re actually profiting.”

The City Lord of Land Blast City frowned upon hearing this and said, ”Isn’t it a loss for us?”

”No, in fact, we are profiting,” Cao Zhen explained, ”Both you and they feel like you’re profiting, so they will be more inclined to enter our Land Blast City. This way, more cultivators will enter our city.

Thus, the number of Peace Commands we collect for entry, well... for entering our Land Blast City, will naturally increase. Moreover, the number of cultivators entering the Astral Domain Secret Territory will also increase. This is called the leverage effect.

Meanwhile, what can they do with half a Peace Command? They haven’t really gained anything.

For instance, you, after obtaining half a Peace Command, you would surely think about winning again to get a complete Peace Command.

Then, you would come back for more. And after that?

Once they are here, they need to pay for entry, right? This way, won’t even more cultivators enter our Land Blast City?

Furthermore, they’re not guaranteed to win next time, they might even lose their Peace Command.

Besides, it’s so dangerous here, many cultivators will likely die, maybe a cultivator with half a Peace Command dies outside.

Even if they do manage to collect enough, we give it to them, and we’ll profit elsewhere.

Moreover, I have other methods to promote the prosperity of our Land Blast City.

In short, the more cultivators that come to Land Blast City, the more Peace Commands we can earn.”

The City Lord of Land Blast City quickly showed a hint of joy on her face and asked, ”What other methods?”

”It’s very simple, for instance, I spread rumors outside that there are powerful ruins in Land Blast City.

Then say, someone obtained some treasure here. As soon as the news spreads, naturally more cultivators will come to explore for treasures.

By nightfall, they would naturally enter Land Blast City.

They might then participate in betting, and they will use Peace Commands in Land Blast City.

Besides...”

Cao Zhen thought of Immortal Lord Yan Yi and the others who had threatened him before, and asked, ”I want to know, after dawn when we leave the city, do we all leave together, or do you have a rule for who leaves first or last?”

The City Lord of Land Blast City nodded gently upon hearing this and said, ”Naturally, why would we regulate who leaves first?”

”This does present an issue. You should know, among the cultivators, there are Taiyi Golden Immortals and Daluo Golden Immortals; Taiyi Golden Immortals are naturally no match for the Daluo Golden Immortals.

By that time, if those Daluo Golden Immortals want to attack a Taiyi Golden Immortal, the Taiyi Golden Immortal would surely die.

The fewer cultivators who die, the fewer that can come to our city and spend.

However, what if we set a rule?

For example, let the Taiyi Golden Immortals leave first, and once they have left, then let the Daluo Golden Immortals leave.

This way, the Taiyi Golden Immortals will be significantly safer.

These Taiyi Golden Immortals, when leaving the city, will undoubtedly be worried about attacks from the Daluo Golden Immortals.

As long as we have them separate, once the Taiyi Golden Immortals know this news, they will flock to us.

Even if the Daluo Golden Immortals hear of it and don’t come to our Land Blast City anymore, it’s fine, after all, the number of Taiyi Golden Immortals is far greater than that of the Daluo Golden Immortals.

Furthermore, we can provide special privileges, offering a nomination to leave before any other cultivators.

Of course, this nomination is only for Taiyi Golden Immortals, and to use this nomination, a cost of five Peace Commands seems appropriate to me.

We can be flexible too.

For instance, if three cultivators are together and want to leave simultaneously, that’s fine too.

But each cultivator must pay five Peace Commands. If we can earn more Peace Commands, why not?

But there must be one condition, the first batch of cultivators leaving early, they must agree to leave together.

As for if many cultivators want to leave early, it’s simple, have them duel, let the winner leave early.

That way, we can make another profit.”

The City Lord of Land Blast City, after hearing this, looked at Cao Zhen with a friendlier gaze.

She even had a slight smile on her lips when she asked, ”Anything else?”

”You still want more.” Cao Zhen said helplessly, ”These are already plenty; we can’t reveal all our cards at once.

Otherwise, if other cities imitate us, we won’t have any strategy left.

Let’s leave it at this for now.”

He said, remembering about the dividend yet to be received, ”Also, the most important thing in doing all this is integrity, the Peace Commands we owe to others must definitely be given.

If we lose the trust of these cultivators, everything will be in vain.

By the way, at the beginning, you promised to give me Peace Commands, but I didn’t receive any share.”
