Chapter 14: Can't rent
The agitation in Shen Ping\'s heart slowly calmed down.
He glanced at the wife and concubine immersed in sleep, and opened the virtual panel.
【Fu Shi: The first-level mid-level (13036/10000) can break through】
…
【Gold Spiritual Root: Middle Grade (1820/10000)】
【Wood Spiritual Root: Middle Grade (1714/10000)】
Talisman Dao experience has long been able to break through, but limited by his cultivation, even if he breaks through, there is no way to make amulets, so he has been pressing.
Now that you have officially broken through to the fourth level of Qi training, you don\'t need to press down anymore.
He got up softly.
Then come to the compartment.
After sitting down in meditation, I said silently, "Breakthrough!"
Boom.
The virtual frame trembled slightly.
In the dark, a large amount of information about the experience and perception of Talisman Dao poured into Shen Ping\'s sea of knowledge. This time, he seemed to see a figure, who had been making Talismans for many years, and continuously accumulated experience to improve Talisman.
After dozens of breaths.
He opened his eyes, and joy shone in his pupils.
From today.
He is a high-grade talisman master.
Get up.
Shen Ping came to the kitchen.
Wash rice.
Cut the meat.
cook rice.
When the wife and concubine woke up, the smell of Lingmi mixed with meat filled the room.
"Husband, you, you seem to have made a breakthrough?"
Yesterday, Bai Yuying went to bed before she had time to sense it, but today she felt a little different when she woke up and saw Shen Ping.
Shen Ping smiled and said, "That\'s right, my husband is already a fourth-level Qi training monk!"
Wang Yun suddenly became excited, "Congratulations, husband, congratulations, husband!"
She was undressed and her chest was shaking.
Bai Yuying also hurriedly congratulated.
But compared to Wang Yun, she is not so excited.
After all, the fourth level of Qi training still belongs to the bottom layer.
After eating.
Wife and concubine go out to dry brocade quilts on the ropes made of jujube trees outside the house, while cleaning and disposing of household garbage.
And Shen Ping looked at the narrow room, thinking secretly in his heart.
Now that the poison in the body is eliminated, although he no longer needs to accumulate spirit stones for the purchase of the detoxification pill, but after he breaks through to the middle stage of his cultivation, he will have to buy a set of middle-grade magic tools, which are not cheap.
Attack and defense, especially defensive ones, must not be spared.
It\'s about safety.
Before, I had no money, and my cultivation was not enough, so I could only make do with it.
But it has to be arranged now.
The other is the living environment.
Hongliu Lane is not safe. He has gone out less often, but sometimes he has to go out. To avoid danger, moving to Fangshi is the only way.
It\'s just that the streets and alleys of Fangshi have long been full.
So he can only wait.
Cultivators are fighting against the sky for their lives, and it is at stake. Maybe it won\'t be long before there will be vacant houses in Fangnei City.
If there is really no such thing, then the small courtyard co-renting mentioned by shopkeeper Chen has to be considered.
"The expenses will increase in the future... My family is still too thin!"
"First use up the medium-grade talisman materials in your hand, and then try to make high-grade talisman seals!"
Shen Ping didn\'t buy high-grade talisman seal materials last time. One reason was that there were not enough spirit stones, and the other reason was that he was worried about the lack of experience in talisman Taoism and the low success rate of making them, which would lead to waste of materials.
Make a plan.
He was busy again.
After so many years of practice life, he has long developed a habit of being busy. Even if he just broke through, he is unwilling to take a break and enjoy a moment of time.
…
Early August.
The temperature is gradually rising.
Red Willow Lane, which was scorching hot in the sun, was filled with unpleasant smells everywhere, and the breeding of mosquitoes in the streets and alleys led to the sale of low-level talismans such as cleaning talismans and insect repellent talismans.
In the past, Shen Ping used to accumulate wealth during this season, but this year he didn\'t join in the fun.
this day.
Jin Yangzong\'s large flying boat landed on the edge of Fang City again.
Another group of monks has arrived.
House prices in Hongliu Lane have not changed, but prices in various streets and alleys in Fangshi have risen. Even so, there are no vacant houses for rent.
In the case of overcrowding, Jin Yangzong announced that he would expand Fangshi, and set aside an area in the east to build a medium-sized courtyard.
As soon as the news came out.
Many monks flocked to Fangshi’s Outer Gate Deacon’s Hall to inquire about specific matters.
Yu Yan came back from Fangshi, saw Shen Ping outside the door, and sighed again and again, "Can\'t afford it, can\'t afford it!"
Shen Ping\'s face changed, and he asked, "You Daoist Yu, did you go to the deacon\'s hall?"
Yu Yan nodded, "This time Jinyangzong will build 300 medium-sized small courtyards in the east. Each small courtyard has six houses, which are divided into upper and lower floors. They can be rented separately or shared."
The corners of Shen Ping\'s mouth twitched, this Jin Yangzong is really getting better at doing business.
But now there are indeed too many monks in Fangshi. It is said that some of the monks have moved out of Fangshi to another Fangshi next to the edge of Yunshan swamp. The established ones are far inferior to Yunshan Fang in terms of strength and security.
"What about the price?"
"Fifteen middle-grade spirit stones!"
Shen Ping smiled and said, "The price is not bad, if it is a joint rent..."
The words are not finished yet.
Yu Yan interrupted, "What are you thinking, it costs fifteen middle-grade spirit stones to rent a single house in the small courtyard!"
Shen Ping almost blurted out, "What? Alone?"
"This is too expensive!"
The annual rental price of the single-family courtyard in the late stage of the eighth floor of Qi training and the base building monks is only 20 yuan, but this medium-sized small courtyard costs 15 yuan alone!
It\'s almost the same as grabbing.
To know.
His annual net profit is only about forty middle-grade spirit stones.
This is because he has a high success rate in making talismans and the market is good. A casual cultivator like Yu Yan who cultivates Qi at the fifth level can earn up to 20 middle-grade spirit stones every year just by hunting monsters and killing monsters. , Of course, if you act as a robbery repairer, your income will be high, but it is also very dangerous.
"It\'s better to have expensive ones!"
"The deacon said that the medium-sized small courtyard built this time will have a large spirit gathering array, and it will also connect to the spiritual veins of Jinyangzong. Not only that, each individual house is not small, and there will be a quiet room inside. Cubicles like material handling rooms."
Hear this.
Shen Ping fell silent.
A single link to the Jinyangzong spiritual vein is enough to arouse the hearts of countless monks.
The branch sect of the Jinyang Sect is located on the spiritual veins of the Yunshan Swamp, and the aura in it is abundant, which is not comparable to that of the market.
The spiritual pulse is very important to monks.
The more advanced a monk is, the more he needs the spirit vein environment.
"Alas, it\'s a pity, not only can\'t afford to rent, but after the construction is completed, it won\'t be our turn!"
Yu Yan shook her head and sighed, "Many senior monks are staring at them now, how can those of us who are in the middle stage of Qi training be able to overtake them."
After finishing speaking, he turned and went back to the house.
She knew about Shen Ping\'s breakthrough a few days ago, and she just congratulated her on it.
"Master Chen, that medium-sized courtyard..."
When Shen Ping returned to the house, he sent a message to shopkeeper Chen.
Not long.
Shopkeeper Chen replied, "Fellow Daoist Shen, I guess it\'s a bit confusing. I didn\'t expect Jinyangzong to connect the medium-sized small courtyards to the spiritual veins this time. Now 100 of the 300 small courtyards have been reserved. Priority will be given to monks in the late stage of Qi training!"
"However, it will take at least half a year before the completion of the construction. Fellow Daoist Shen may not have a chance."
Shen Ping\'s heart sank. He thought it was too expensive before, but he couldn\'t even afford the rent.
"Master Chen, please keep an eye on me. If there are any vacant houses, please notify me immediately."
"no problem!"
ps: Thanks to the lonely Boubo Wang for the reward of 500 coins.
