Chapter 229: Training Subordinates
"However, after settling down in the future, you must still stay in Wugu. If necessary, you need to complete some tasks as a family."
After listening to Zhou Daocheng, everyone understood what Zhou Daocheng meant.
If before, they signed an agreement with Wugu as independent cultivators.
Then now, Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong are tied together and signed an agreement with Wugu Market as a family.
It is similar to "Xiaodan Pavilion", "Wang Family" and "Zhou Family".
However, Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong have no background and cannot provide help to the market like other forces, and even need the help of Wugu.
At this time, everyone realized that this is not a restriction? It is simply a benefit for the two!
After understanding the pros and cons, Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong also showed joy on their faces and kept kneeling down to thank them.
Zhou Daocheng quickly helped the two up. He actually had his own ideas about this matter.
The development of Wugu Market cannot only be seen in the present, but also in the long run.
If these independent cultivators can combine with each other, establish a family of immortal cultivators, and settle down in the fog valley, this is also a good thing.
A few decades later, this will be a family power that knows everything about it, and can develop together with the market, which is far more valuable than a single independent cultivator.
After all, independent cultivators will die, and the family will continue to be passed down.
Moreover, if the family power in the market is all his own people who know everything about it, the overall development will be easier to control.
Therefore, he will take the initiative to agree to Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong's matter.
However, there is only one person who looks unhappy.
He is another cultivator who, like Yuan Zhong, was seriously injured and fell to the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Everyone has also encountered the tragedy of life, why did you not only find a wife, but also start a family? !
This is really unacceptable to him. His own failure is certainly uncomfortable, but the success of others is even more unacceptable!
As if sensing his disappointment, Zhou Daocheng took the initiative to comfort him: "Ahem, the arrangement for Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong also applies to you."
Hearing this, a look of joy appeared on his face, but it only appeared for two seconds and then disappeared directly.
What's the use of applying? I don't have a girlfriend!
Of course, no one cares whether he has a girlfriend or not...
Next, Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong became Taoist couples with the blessings of everyone, and withdrew from the guard team and hunting team.
Some members of Yuan Zhong's hunting team joined other hunting teams, and some continued to follow Yuan Zhong and became guests of the family.
Zhou Daocheng was also amused and confused. The family had not been established yet, but there were already several guests of the family.
Afterwards, with the help of Zhou Daocheng, Yuan Zhong and Tang Rong opened a store in Wugufang City as the foundation for the development of the family.
This was also the only thing Zhou Daocheng could do. After all, the most important thing in the future was to reproduce offspring, expand the family, and expand the family.
This required the two of them to work hard!
However, after this is over, Zhou Daocheng needs to worry about another thing.
That is the power of the entire Wugu Market!
Although Xie Zhouhe broke through the foundation and successfully refined the "Spirit Puppet Array", the overall strength has been greatly improved.
However, the combat power of the ninth level of Qi Refining has been reduced a lot, which will bring great pressure.
Now the market is in its development period, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more cultivators are coming and going.
If there is no strong enough guard force, it is impossible to ensure the stability and safety of the market, which is a very serious problem.
After all, it is impossible to let the foundation-building strongmen come forward to solve the problem after something happens, which is somewhat embarrassing.
Therefore, it is necessary to continue to improve the strength in the next period of time.
For this matter, Zhou Daocheng also found Wei Hanshan and Meng Yueshan specifically to ask for their opinions.
But in the final analysis, there are roughly only two better solutions.
The first is to continue to use the caves and spiritual fields of the second valley as before to absorb the surrounding scattered cultivators.
But this method is no longer effective, because a large part of the scattered cultivators active in the surrounding area have joined the Wugu.
As for those who are unwilling to join, they must have their own considerations, and it is difficult to attract them.
Therefore, the road of absorbing casual cultivators has come to an end in a short period of time, and it is difficult to expand the power quickly.
Then there is only another way - to improve strength and cultivate ninth-level Qi Refining masters.
Although Zhou Daocheng does not have many ninth-level Qi Refining masters, there are quite a few eighth-level Qi Refining masters, nearly 20 in total.
Some of them joined as lone ranger casual cultivators and became the backbone of various hunting teams.
Some of them were originally in the hunting team of ninth-level Qi Refining masters and followed the leader to join Wugu.
In fact, many people are very reliable and trustworthy.
Moreover, there are also some people who have good talents and are relatively young, but they are stuck in the bottleneck and cannot break through due to insufficient cultivation resources.
If Zhou Daocheng is willing to take out cultivation resources to help them improve their strength, perhaps he can cultivate a few more ninth-level Qi Refining masters.
However, Zhou Daocheng also has his own little thoughts.
If he really wanted to cultivate the ninth level of Qi, he would naturally prefer to invest resources in his family, or in some independent cultivators that he was familiar with.
So, the first batch of people he trained did not choose the casual cultivators in the hunting team, but a group of his own people to train in secret.
As for the candidates, first of all, they were people from the family, and a total of two were selected.
They were the fourth brother Zhou Daoqi and the second sister Zhou Shouhai.
As for why there were only two people, there was really no way. There were only a few people left in the family, most of whom were old people and children.
There were only one or two people of the right age who had the opportunity to break through to a higher level.
Needless to say, Zhou Daoqi had an absolute talent in refining weapons. It was precisely because he spent most of his time on refining weapons that his cultivation speed was relatively slow, and he was still only at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
However, Zhou Daoqi had a good spiritual root talent and was still very young. If there was a large supply of resources, there should be a high probability of a breakthrough.
As for Zhou Shouhai, he was one of the only five "Shou" generation left in the Zhou family. He was also a weapon refiner with 80% Qi Refining cultivation.
He was the most important backbone of the Spirit Weapon Pavilion in the Wugu Market, except Zhou Daoqi.
There was no need to hesitate when choosing these two people. Even if there was no such opportunity, Zhou Daocheng would provide them with a lot of training materials.
As for the choice of others, Zhou Daocheng selected a group of his former subordinates.
That is, Bai Qiulin, Baldy Huanglong, Wu Xiangling, Hua Niang, and Xiao Lan.
