Chapter 337: Rumor Mill
Dou Deng, the kid, nodded his head. Sage grinned and put a pouch full of silver coins into his hand, Use these. All you need to tell them is that someone found the corpse of a giant immortal rank butterfly in a canyon. If they promise to tell everyone they know, then give them some silver.
Dou Deng was pretty confused, but Sage just sent him off on his way. Dou Dengs grandpa, Dou Cheng, stuck around to drive Sages coach. Over the next few days, Sage had Dou Deng continue to spread the rumor. He even passed him a few more bags of silver to hand out. There were more than twenty days before the next monthly auction, so Sage spent his time collecting information on the Core Formation cultivators in town and also in the whole of 10,000 Wave Province.
There was already a Falcon in Golden Cricket Cove, one of the earliest that were trained in fact. After training his first team of Falconers, Sage sent one specifically to Lionheart Town and then Golden Cricket Cove. He of course wanted to have the strongest information network in his future home. With that in mind, there was already a pretty decent list of talents created. Sage just spent some time researching them.
All Core Formation Cultivators were pretty sought after as they made up the main forces of the most powerful organizations. Rank 6 cultivators were the elites, and any first rank power needed to have at least one, but rank 5 cultivators were those organizations' strengths. The more they had, the more powerful they could be. Just a few meant control of a city, a dozen could hold a county, and the first rate groups that ran Provinces could have hundreds. That didnt mean there werent any that were still free agents. Most of them came from powerful Sects and Clans, using their rich resources to reach their rank, but not all of them. There were always those without such deep support who form their Golden Cores through luck or talent.
Sage was specifically aiming for this second category, as well as those groups that were close to collapse. Just like Wu Chang and Black Saber, he wanted to try and rope in individuals, or those that needed the backing of a stronger power. Other powers would of course do the same, but it was rare for them to offer such great conditions as the Jade Horde. Most groups would offer a position of power for a high rank cultivator, but it was more likely theyd offer a guest elder position. They were important and powerful, but they wouldnt have great power for the core decisions. Or, others would allow such a person a strong position, but completely ignore their old Clan or Sect. That said, Sage was far from the only group offering good conditions for joining, but nobody would join a group without any considerations.
Ahh I see. Are any of your Elders or Disciples already Professionals? The Jade Horde is already manufacturing weapons and armor, but theres still plenty of room for other support. What would the Brass Earth Sect like to be responsible for in the future?
In the past, the Brass Earth Sect was pretty diverse. We had Farmers, Alchemists, Chefs, Miners, and Blacksmiths. The Brass Earth Sect specializes in the Earth Element, so we know some techniques related to prospecting for minerals, mining, and improving the fertility of soil. Unfortunately, most of our Professionals were killed in the disaster, but our techniques have not been lost.
Excellent! The Jade Horde just acquired a Cloudmetal Charcoal Mine. The Brass Earth Sect can be responsible for mining and also finding new minerals to use in weapon production.
Surprisingly, Sages recruitment efforts werent wasted, though they came with a bit of overhead just like Wu Chang. Even so, it meant there was only one free slot in the Seven Stars waiting for an occupant. After that one was filled, anyone who wanted to be one of the Seven Stars would have to beat one of them in combat. Or at least that was the basic rule. It might be amended in the future if any of the Seven Stars became too important. In fact, if they ever got large enough Sage intended to have a council of the most influential generals. Then they could keep their expertise and experience even if they werent one of the seven strongest fighters in the Horde.
Over the next few weeks, Sage continued to spread rumors and recruit for the Jade Horde. He wasnt going to just up and tell everyone about the Treasure Map as it would be too obvious. Instead he just wanted to increase the fame of Immortal Butterfly Fairy and her giant butterfly pet. If the rumors about a giant butterfly carcass being found were spread enough, then when the list of auctioned items was released then some might form a connection.
