To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

"In addition to the Sutra Library, the Holy Altar in the Immortal City can also bring nearly 200 million in revenue to our sect every year."

"With our sect releasing a large number of affordable body-refining resources, more and more cultivators are choosing to cultivate their bodies as well. In particular, cultivators from major factions are also striving to improve their body-refining realm in order to fully unleash the power of their battle armor."

"The altar has undergone three upgrades so far, resulting in better effects, stronger functions, and a steady increase in revenue."

Sun Yi nodded in satisfaction. "The altar is one of the landmark buildings of the Immortal City. It will become one of the core selling points for this Immortal City to attract cultivators in the future. We must build it well."

"We also need to plan the price of using the altar. My definition of the altar is not to make a lot of money, but to gain popularity. By relying on the altar's fame, we can attract more cultivators to the Immortal City, which will drive the development of the Immortal City."

"Changqing, please find time to arrange for someone to adjust the price of the altar. It should be based on the income of the cultivators in the Immortal City. The goal is that the cultivators in the Immortal City only need to spend a small amount of their income to pay for the use of the altar."

"Also, as the number of cultivators increases, the number of cultivators who also cultivate their bodies will gradually increase. In the future, one holy altar will not be able to meet the cultivation needs of the cultivators in the Immortal City. We will also need to plan the construction of a new holy altar."

"Also, once our network is built and our communication technology is upgraded, the payment model for the altar will also be improved. We'll take note of all these and work through them gradually, adjusting the prices first."

"Okay, Master. We will consider the price carefully based on the actual situation."

"What's the situation at the battle tower?" Sun Yi began to inquire about the situation at the battle tower again.

"The current battle tower can bring our sect about 100 million in revenue every year. This is the profit after deducting all costs when our sect opens it free of charge to Qi Refining cultivators." Changqing answered seriously.

Sun Yi sighed and shook his head. "That's too much. I'm going to make a request to you now. For the next ten years, the battle tower in Xiancheng will not be allowed to make a profit. Even our sect will have to invest money to subsidize the battle tower every year."

"In this way, all ticket fees for the Battle Tower will be waived for the next ten years, and all expenses of the Battle Tower will be borne entirely by our sect." Sun Yi thought about it and immediately made a decision.

"Master, if the Battle Tower waives the entrance fee for all cultivators, our sect will have to spend at least 200 million every year just on the Battle Tower."

“Wouldn’t that be a bit too much?”

"After it becomes completely free, more monks will use the battle tower, and our consumption will increase."

"This is an expenditure of several hundred million. Please think twice, Master."

……

Some monks in the hall immediately persuaded Sun Yi that the exemption of the Battle Tower's ticket fees would turn the Battle Tower's profit of 100 million into a loss of several hundred million in an instant, which was too painful.

Sun Yi swept his eyes over the faces of these people and said calmly, "You have just heard about our income. We can fully afford this expenditure."

"The greatest function of the battle tower is to cultivate the monks' combat experience and improve their combat effectiveness."

"Haven't you seen the battlefield footage sent back? Monks who frequently train in the battle tower perform completely differently on the battlefield."

"This beast tide is just a minor incident. In the future, there may be more powerful monster armies attacking our Chaos Demon County. How will we resist the beast tide then? We will still have to rely on the cultivators of the Immortal City to resist. Therefore, it is imperative to increase their combat experience and improve their combat effectiveness."

"Some money cannot be saved. Subsidizing the battle tower will increase our security in the future."

"Not only should we waive the entrance fee, we also need to formulate a reward policy for those monks who work hard, make rapid progress, and perform well in the battle tower."

"I fully support the master's decision!" Changqing stated directly.

"I also support the leader's decision!"

"I also think the leader's decision is correct!"

"Master is right, some money cannot be saved."

……

"I'm sorry, Master. I was inconsiderate. I support your decision."

A group of people supported Sun Yi's decision, and even those who had just had opinions immediately changed their attitudes and expressed their support.

Sun Yi nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Chang Qing: "These should be our main sources of income, right? Can you tell me what our main expenses are?"

"Okay, Master."

"Our sect has a lot of income, but also a lot of expenses."

"It's mainly education expenses, R&D expenses, salary expenses, expenses in the mortal world, purchase of raw materials, and various subsidies."

"Among them, education spending is currently around 500 million per year, R&D spending reaches 5 billion per year, and salaries are 2 billion. The Mortal World previously invested 1 billion in a lump sum, and according to the Sect Leader's request, we will continue to invest 100 million per year in support. The acquisition of various raw materials is the most expensive, with an annual investment of at least 15 billion, and various subsidies costing around 10 billion."

Everyone listened carefully to Changqing's report on expenditures, each with a serious expression. At this moment, they realized that Qingyunmen's expenditures were so high.

Xuanying was already stunned. The overall income of Qingyun Sect far surpassed that of Tiankui Sect. Who could have imagined that the annual income of a sect in Luanyao County would be so terrifying?

Now, when I heard the expenditure data of Qingyun Sect, I was also shocked. The expenditure of Qingyun Sect this year was as much as that of Tiankui Sect for ten or even dozens of years.

If these data were known by the forces in other counties, it would definitely cause an uproar. An annual expenditure of more than 23 billion is such a terrifying number.

“I didn’t expect our annual expenditure to be so high!”

"Over 20 billion! This is a number I never dared to dream of before!"

"Fortunately, we have introduced Qingyun Coin. If we used spirit stones to count, the spirit stones would have piled up into a mountain."

"The benefits of our sect's management have been increasing again and again. The sect leader has no upper limit on the investment in the battle tower disciples. The benefits of ordinary disciples are also very high. The investment in all aspects is huge. They are really good at spending money."

"If the income and expenditure data of our sect were to be spread out, I wonder what a sensation it would cause."

……

Sun Yi knocked on the table and suddenly said, "Combining the income and expenditure of our sect, have you found any problems?"

Everyone looked at Sun Yi with confusion, not understanding what Sun Yi meant. They didn't find any problems at all, and everything was fine.

"Master, is there something wrong?" Su Motang looked at Sun Yi in confusion.

Sun Yi shook his head: "There is nothing wrong. Judging from the overall income and expenditure of our sect, our income is seriously unbalanced, and our income far exceeds our expenditure."

"Master, isn't it a good thing that the income far exceeds the expenditure?" Zhang Ye looked at Sun Yi with a puzzled look. In their opinion, this is a great thing.
