Chapter 206.1

Dai Zhixin’s plan is very detailed. But it is also because it is so detailed that many people feel dizzy after reading it.

Even Bai Shuanghua, who was trained by Feng Shao as the successor of the city lord, couldn’t help but feel a headache.

But Bai Shuanghua also knew that if this plan was completed, it might really bring the strength of Wuling City to a new level.

After some discussions, Feng Shao finally made a decision. To follow Dai Zhixin’s plan.

After the meeting, Dai Zhixin did not leave immediately with Bai Shuanghua, but instead went to Feng Shao privately and said, “City Lord Feng, there is another thing I want to tell you.”

Feng Shao asked curiously: “What’s the matter?”

Dai Zhixin first handed Feng Shao a blueprint, and then said with a smile, “It’s about the spirit stones cultivation.”

“Spirit stones cultivation?” Feng Shao was stunned. He understands spirit stones, and he understands cultivation, but what the hell is spirit stones cultivation?

Feng Shao looked down at the blueprint in his hand and found that it was a kind of box with multiple pipes connected to it and multiple air holes arranged. In terms of specifications, it looks a bit like a steamer. But for a steamer, it’s not enough to draw a drawing, right?

Seeing Feng Shao’s puzzled look, Dai Zhixin felt even more proud. She couldn’t help laughing secretly.

Can’t think of it? She just took out his future designs ahead of time!

But Dai Zhixin said calmly on the outside, “This is a spirit stones cultivation device, which can be used to cultivate spirit stones. Each box can cultivate a hundred spirit stones at the same time. Each box is about half a foot high, in a space of one foot, twenty layers can be stacked, that is, two thousand spirit stones. According to my estimate, eighteen thousand boxes can be placed in a space of four hundred square meters, that is, one million eight hundred thousand spirit stones.”

Feng Shao quickly raised his hand and said, “Stop! Stop! Tell me first, what exactly is spirit stones cultivation? I’ve never heard of this term before.”

Dai Zhixin smiled and said, “City Lord Feng, do you know how spirit stones are formed?”

Feng Shao frowned, “Isn’t this a natural mineral deposit?”

Dai Zhixin shook her head and said: “There are still some errors in your understanding. Spirit stones should be regarded as an accessory product of natural spiritual energy in essence.”

Afterward, Dai Zhixin told Feng Shao what she knew in detail.

It turns out that spirit stones are not natural mineral deposits, but the product of long-term infiltration of natural spiritual energy into the earth.

To put it simply, there is the natural spiritual energy first, and then the spirit stones.

Natural spiritual energy exists widely in this world. The natural spiritual energy mined in Wuling City should actually be regarded as a mid-level natural spiritual energy vein. Spirit stones, on the other hand, are formed by the dissemination of shallow natural spiritual energy veins about thirty to one hundred meters underground.

From more than one hundred meters underground to the surface, geological activities are relatively active, and from time to time some deep or middle natural spiritual energy veins enter the shallow layer under the influence of geological activities.

The rock formation where the shallow natural spiritual energy is located has too many cracks, so the time of its existence is generally not long.

This natural spiritual energy will gradually dissipate into the surrounding rock formations over time and gradually seep into the rock.

After absorbing a certain amount of spiritual energy, ordinary rocks become spirit stones.

This is where the spirit stone veins come from.

In other words, all spirit stones are essentially formed by long-term absorption of spiritual energy. Before that, they were just ordinary stones.

Hearing this, Feng Shao couldn’t help but twitch his eyelids, “So, you want to artificially create an environment where the rocks can absorb spiritual energy, so as to cultivate artificial spirit stones?”

“Bingo! City Lord Feng, you guessed it right!” Dai Zhixin said with a smile, then she continued, “Now that we know the formation principle of spirit stones, why don’t we make spirit stones ourselves? Isn’t this the same as opening a money printing factory by ourselves? And what is printed is the currency that is used all over the world!”

The corner of Feng Shao’s mouth twitched. If this idea can really be realized, then Wuling City will be a real golden cornucopia!

The spirit stones in this world are a kind of stones that are spherical on one side and square on the other. They look a bit like cupcakes and weigh about one tael (50g). They are the common currency that mainly circulates in the cultivation world.

Different from their previous world, the spirit stones in this world are of uniform specifications, and there are no broken spirit stones, so there is no need to add the unit weight.

(The broken silver in the world is actually cut from the official ingot. Silver is different from gold and is softer in nature, so it can be cut with ordinary iron scissors. Therefore, there was generally broken silver in ancient times, but very few broken gold.

In addition, since the weight of broken silver varies, most merchants also have to prepare their own special small scales for weighing.)
