If gods were a lineage's true reserves of strength...
Then demigods were its true pillars.
Even in Yang County, where Yang Fan had been born, most demigod powerhouses had joined lineages or major companies.
After all, Divine Kingdoms needed to develop, believers needed to eat, and all manner of resources required Divinity Points.
A demigod could not completely detach himself from the Real World and rely solely on his Divine Kingdom's own production.
Thus, the vast majority would find a way to join a sufficiently powerful faction.
Even Yang Fan himself...
Despite possessing the SSS-Rank Evolution Talent, he had still needed to marry into the Five Great Families and borrow their strength to develop.
How much more true was that for demigods with ordinary talents?
"I've transferred another one hundred trillion Divinity Points to your Divine Kingdom."
Yang Fan spoke calmly.
"You need to package the Ning One Hundred Group as a truly conscientious enterprise that contributes to the entire human race."
"Have the company purchase Soul-Nourishing Wood Seedlings in bulk and distribute them free of charge to everyone who accepts the group's investment."
"Then have the company buy back the mature soul-nourishing wood from them at high prices."
Yang Fan continued:
"Monthly awards, quarterly awards, half-yearly awards—max them all out."
"Help these students grow quickly and strive to get them to break through to demigod as soon as possible."
"As for how far to take it, use your own judgment."
After hearing this, Ning Bailian immediately replied respectfully:
"Rest assured, Big Brother Yang. This is simple."
"It's just..."
Ning Bailian hesitated.
"Big Brother, these things seem like work the Federal Government should be responsible for."
"The Ning One Hundred Group is a private enterprise, after all. Normally, shouldn't profit still be its primary goal?"
"Just do as I say."
