Chapter 82: Mo Jian, the shrewd business man.
With the conclusion of the Mystic Mechanic Exhibition, all the disciples departed, leaving only the few who had created something extraordinary behind.
Even the three elders did not stay.
Mo Jian looked at the four fellow disciples and smiled lightly.
"What are your future plans for your project?"
"Young Master, please advise us," Yan Li said respectfully.
Although he was a core disciple, in the presence of Mo Jian, his core disciple title meant nothing. Besides, he deeply respected Mo Jian from the bottom of his heart.
"Good." Mo Jian nodded, satisfied with his response. "Each one of you has a long way to go if you’re going to pursue the path of invention. But I believe your future achievements will shake this world."
He began slowly.
"First, you need a personal research laboratory where you can focus on your research and invention. Second, you need a team to assist you. Third, you need a factory."
The four disciples listened with rapt attention. Even though they had considered their future with their invention, they did not expect it to involve so many procedures.
Just thinking about the resources needed made them realize the one million spirit stones given to them by Mo Jian were far from enough.
Besides, this was not an issue of money but of the influence and capability to carry everything out.
Mo Jian knew what was going on in their minds and gave them an encouraging smile.
"Since I told you everything, of course, I already have a solution in mind."
When the four disciples heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Young Master, please tell us," Wei Jian said with anticipation.
He knew whatever Mo Jian planned, it wouldn’t be bad for them. Rather, it would help them solve their major problems.
"Join my Thousand Wealth Chamber. As long as you join, I’ll take care of everything. All you need to do is focus on your research without worrying about anything."
"Apart from that, my Thousand Wealth Chamber will secure the patent of your work."
"Young Master, what is a patent?" Yong Li asked, confusion marring his face.
It was not only him— the other three disciples were also confused.
This was the first time they had heard the word patent
.Mo Jian was not surprised by their confused expressions. "A patent means no one can use or copy your work without your permission."
Ah!
A look of understanding flashed across their faces as they realized the importance of patents.
"Now, you understand the importance of patents."
"Yes!"
The four nodded.
"So, what do you think? Are you ready to join my Thousand Wealth Chamber? As for your income, you’ll get 30 percent of your artifact sales."
When the four heard 30 percent, a slight frown appeared on their faces, and Mo Jian added,
"If you think the percentage is too small, I won’t convince you to join my Thousand Wealth Chamber. With the one million spirit stones as initial funding, you can be on your own."
Listening to Mo Jian, the four disciples knew that without him, their current achievements wouldn’t be possible.
Besides, with his wealth, he had no reason to covet their little source of income. For a moment, silence permeated the air, and the four exchanged subtle glances.
Mo Jian stood quietly, waiting for their decision.
Even though it seemed he was taking the largest percentage, he was actually making a loss. What he was betting on was their future achievements.
Apart from that, the Thousand Wealth Chamber was going to expand beyond their borders to other regions.
Therefore, their projects could be the face of the Thousand Wealth Chamber.
"Young Master, I’ll join your Thousand Wealth Chamber," Xiu Xu was the first to break the silence.
"I came from an ordinary home, and your act of kindness in teaching us the Mystic Mechanic was a favor I can’t repay in this life."
Mo Jian shook his head, "Teaching you the Mystic Mechanic is a way of spreading knowledge. You don’t have to repay me."
"I know, but I’ll repay the kindness with my hard work and invention," she said solemnly.
Seeing this, Mo Jian did not argue with her any longer and allowed her to do as she wished.
"Young Master, I’ll join the Thousand Wealth Chamber," Wei Jian said calmly.
After him, Yong Li also agreed to join the Thousand Wealth Chamber, leaving only Yan Li.
Instantly, all eyes focused on him.
Feeling their gaze, Yan Li chuckled. "Of course, I’ll join the Thousand Wealth Chamber. Who would be foolish enough to miss such a golden opportunity?"
Hahaha!
The four disciples laughed, and Mo Jian smiled. He was pleased by their decision. Even though he had prepared for the worst, he was still excited by their response.
"For joining my Thousand Wealth Chamber, I’ll give each of you a Mystic Computer," Mo Jian said and took out Mystic Computers from his spatial pouch.
He gave each of them one. He also gave them a prepared manual.
Looking at the sleek artifact, a bright smile appeared on their faces. Just from this, they knew they wouldn’t regret joining the Thousand Wealth Chamber.
"When you return to your courtyard, read the manuals and visit the browser. There is a surprise for you," Mo Jian said with a mysterious smile and departed.
Surprise?
The four stood frozen, shock written on their faces.
"And don’t forget to visit Zhao Tian in the Chamber to sign the contract."
Mo Jian’s voice came from outside. Before they could turn to look at him, he was long gone.
With large strides, Mo Jian walked toward his parents’ villa. He needed to discuss some important matters with his father.
"Why did you come to see your old man?" the Sect Master asked calmly, taking a sip of tea.
"Father, I need a portion of land from the sect," Mo Jian said directly, without beating around the bush.
’Hmm?!’
His father creased his brow. "With your wealth, you can get any portion of land. Why would you come to me?"
"Indeed. I can get any portion of land in the western region. As a matter of fact, there are hundreds of hectares under my Thousand Wealth Chamber. But the reason I came to you is to promote the sect," Mo Jian’s voice was casual yet serious.
"How so?"
"Father, you know about the Mystic Mechanic I started?"
His father nodded but kept staring at him.
"It is progressing quickly, and it is only a matter of time before its fame spreads throughout the western region and beyond."
"Really?!" He knitted his brow skeptically.
Runes and formations had existed since time immemorial. How could some whimsical branch of knowledge come out of nowhere and dominate the region?
Even though he found it hard to believe, he didn’t voice his opinion. His son had performed many miracles that left no room for doubt about his capabilities.
Mo Jian chuckled. He knew his father was having a hard time believing him, but he wasn’t ready to convince him.
Perhaps he was just too lazy to do so.
"So, Father..."
His intention was clear.
"There is a lot of unused land in the outer region. Just pick anywhere you like. Just pay the corresponding payment in the Internal Affairs Hall."
Mo Jian nodded and changed the topic. "Father, how is Mother’s seclusion?"
"Everything is going according to plan. With your mother’s talent, she should be able to break through to the second stage."
"Good..." He was quite happy with the news.
The stronger his parents were, the better.
As for him, with his talent, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed them. If anyone were to hear his thoughts, they would think he was crazy.
But he was not.
"Son, have you considered Elder Zhao? He and his family are loyal to the sect. You should’ve heard what happened to his family?"
"Indeed, I heard about it. Father, you don’t have to worry. If I didn’t trust his family, I wouldn’t be foolish enough to make his grandson my right-hand man," Mo Jian said seriously.
When his father heard him, he laughed. "When did you become this wise?"
"Father, don’t look down on me. I’ve always been wise. It just took you a long time to realize it," Mo Jian responded shamelessly.
His father clicked his tongue and ignored him.
Mo Jian chuckled and took out a manual from his spatial pouch.
"Father, the sect can use this as the foundation for the elders to break through to the Golden Core realm."
"Apart from Supreme Elder Zhao, anyone who wants to use the sacred land must have enough contribution points. At least one million contribution points."
Listening to the seriousness in Mo Jian’s voice, his father didn’t speak and took the manual from him.
Return To Origin Scripture.
A high-grade cultivation technique. Even though it couldn’t compare to his or his wife’s manual, it was still a powerful one.
"Thank you..." his father said seriously. "Don’t worry. I’ll follow your suggestion. Besides, I’ll only leave half of the manual in the scripture hall."
Mo Jian nodded and continued to discuss matters with his father when he received a message on his Spirit Link.
Reading the message, a smile crept up his lips. The message was from the Xu Clan.
"Good news?"
"Yes. Father, I need to go." Mo Jian stood up.
"Go and do your thing." He waved his hand as if he couldn’t wait to chase him away.
Mo Jian rolled his eyes and left.
Looking at the departing back of his son, the Sect Master wore a prideful smile.
"Now, old Zhao can have a chance to break through to the Golden Core realm."
