He saw Chen Daolan’s excited expression.

Chen Daoxuan smiled.” Don’t be so excited. It’s not something that can be done overnight to turn our Sea-viewing Immortal City into an industrial immortal city. This is different from the small industrial zones on Shuanghu Island.”” “Yes.”

Hearing this reminder, Chen Daolan calmed down and nodded seriously.

As the acting head of the Chen family, Chen Daolan had been worried about the family’s industrial production during this period of time.

After all, these industries were the lifeline of the Chen family.

She knew that the industrial zone of Shuanghu Island was completely different from the industrial city described by Chen Daoxuan.

The Industrial Immortal City that Chen Daoxuan wanted to build was not so much to industrialize the Seaview Immortal City, but to build an industrial city circle with the Seaview Immortal City as the core.

Now.

The Chen family was involved in three major industries: the magic tool industry, the pill industry, and the talisman industry.

However, it was broken down.

Each industry could be divided into countless branches.

For example, the magical equipment industry.

The current magical equipment industry of the Chen Clan had been perfected after so many years of development. It was no longer the time when they relied on a Harmonious Spirit Stove to conquer the world.

Now, the Chen family’s magical equipment industry could already produce the vast majority of first and second-grade magical equipment.

Note that the magic tools here are not only referring to flying swords, but also ling armor and other supplementary magic tools.

Of course, the core of the magic tool industry was still the Harmonious Spirit Stove.

It was because of the existence of the Harmonious Spirit Stove that the Chen family’s ” half-baked ” Armament Masters could grow rapidly and their efficiency was dozens of times higher than traditional Armament Masters.

In Shuanghu Island’s industrial zone, it was not easy to produce a magic tool from scratch.

He needed to solve the supply of spirit ores, the production of spirit melting stoves, the construction of factories, the production of magic tools, the training of artifact masters, the training of industrial workers, and so on. There was also the problem of energy and environmental pollution in the production of magic tools.

It was not something that could be solved overnight.

Under Chen Daoxuan’s guidance, the Chen family had still fumbled for decades before they had the confidence to say that they had a little experience.

If an outsider only obtained a Harmonious Spirit Stove, they could at most start a manual workshop like Chen Daoxuan. It was simply unrealistic to want to achieve the scale of industrial production of the Chen family.

The Chen family’s magical artifact industry had developed to this day. It was no longer comparable to the handcraft workshops of the past.

In fact, the Magical Equipment Research Institute had been researching automatic refining that abandoned the ” half-baked ” refiners.

Once he succeeded.

The Chen family’s magical equipment industry was truly unique.

Although the pill industry had developed for a shorter period of time, it was the same.

Small workshop production and large-scale factory production were completely different things.

The Chen family had spent decades to improve the production process bit by bit, summarize production experience, and improve production technology. Finally, they had achieved a leap from a small workshop to a large factory.

The hardships involved were unimaginable to outsiders.

This was because the Chen family had been relying on themselves to explore from the beginning to the end. They had no experience to refer to.

Even if Chen Daoxuan had become an official, he wouldn’t be able to give them much help.

After all, the industrial production in the cultivation world was different from the industrial production in his previous life. There were many things that were ambiguous.

“Dao Lian, how many cultivators are working in the magic tool factory in my Chen family?”

Hearing this.

“There are a total of 7657 people,” Chen Daolan blurted out.”

“So many?”

Chen Daoxuan exclaimed.

“Yes,”

” Yes.” Chen Daolan nodded and said,” The clan’s magical equipment factory provides the most jobs for the clan’s cultivators. In this aspect, even the clan’s pill factory can’t be compared.”

“The clan only has a little more than thirty thousand cultivators, but there are nearly eight thousand people working in the magic tool factory. That’s almost one-third of the clan’s cultivator population.”

“Yeah,”

” It’s not like that.” Chen Daolan sighed.” The magical equipment factory needs the most cultivators. Compared to the pill factory and the talisman factory, its production efficiency is also the lowest.”

“Having a large population is a good thing. What 1 want is for it to have a large population!”

Hearing this, Chen Dailian was a little confused.

” What do you mean?” After thinking for a while, Chen Daolan raised his head.” You mean that the number of people needed by the magical equipment factory is related to the competition between Ling Zhou Immortal City and Guang ‘an Prefecture Immortal City?””

“Of course it matters,”

Chen Daoxuan smiled and said,” What right does the Zhou family and Yang family have to snatch the rogue cultivators of our Seaview Immortal City? It was all because they paid higher wages to the secret practitioners who relied on them.

However, regardless of whether the freelance martial artists were planting ling fields for the Zhou and Yang families or raising ling beasts for the two families, their own productivity was limited.

No matter how high the Zhou and Yang families paid them, it was impossible for them to exceed the value created by the freelance martial artists.”

When Chen Daolan heard this, he thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

The Zhou family and the Yang family were not philanthropists.

In the Infinite Star Sea, any Immortal City was essentially serving the owner of the Immortal City and seeking benefits for them.

The reason why the various immortal cities attracted itinerant cultivators was because the more itinerant cultivators there were, the greater the benefits they could create for the immortal city.

As the owner of the Immortal City, he would be able to reap more benefits.

At the same time, the ruler of the Immortal City would also give some soup to the rogue cultivators to maintain a stable economic cycle.

Of course.

In this process, exploitation was inevitable.

As for the degree of exploitation, it would depend on their methods and ruthlessness.

The Chen family’s Sea-viewing Immortal City was also one of them..
