After following Yun Manluo around Tianyin Pavilion, Jiang You also gained a new understanding of Tianyin Pavilion. This is a commercial complex with a complete system. In addition to daily trading places, there are also casinos and Jiaofang Department Stores. There are also entertainment venues such as bathing and sauna cities, theaters, and even places for elderly care and funerals. As Yun Manluo said, as long as you have money, everything can be done.
But it has to be said that the consumption here is also surprisingly high. In other words, the price is also the selling point of Tianyin Pavilion. If the consumption here is not high, the wealthy people who show off their wealth will not choose this place.
Jiang You is naturally not a wealthy person. At least she gave up the idea completely after coming to Tianyin Pavilion. Fortunately, Yun Manluo also pointed out a clear path for her, which is to become the guest he recruits. As long as she can deliver a batch of equipment to Yun Manluo as promised every month, she can also spend it at Tianyin Pavilion at a discount.
Jiang You had no objection to this. After all, she had signed an agreement with Lin Le long ago, and now it was just officially implemented.
After completing the formalities, Yun Manluo took Jiang You to a sand table.
"The next step is to choose your residence. Tianyin Pavilion is just a place where we work. In fact, our people all live in Tianyin Garden on the eastern outskirts of the city. There is a third-level spiritual vein and a second-level earth fire. So it is far more suitable for cultivation than Tianyin Pavilion. But the houses there all charge rent, so I don’t know what price my sister wants to choose." Yun Manluo explained.
Jiang You nodded. After all, Yun Manluo had said before that there were no restrictions in Tianyin Pavilion, but this also meant that nothing here was free. It was natural that the accommodation required rent.
"What price ranges are there to choose from?" Jiang You asked doubtfully.
Yun Manluo introduced: "The cheapest one only costs ten yuan stones per month, but it is in Datongpu in the tenth ring road. Most of them are for handymen. The nine ring houses have single rooms and one spiritual stone per month. The most expensive There are also those with a thousand spirit stones, and in the center, a few of us Nascent Soul elders live there."
"Are there any ones with ten to fifty spirit stones?" Jiang You asked. This was also the price he could afford by counting on his fingers.
"Of course!" Yun Manluo nodded and said: "The one with the eighth ring is a one-story hut, which costs ten to twenty spiritual stones per month; the one with the seventh ring is a small attic, just like the attic of the inner disciples of the Lin family in Xinghai Town, which costs ten to twenty spiritual stones per month. Thirty to fifty spirit stones. But you need a place to calm down and refine the weapon, and you have to go to the Sixth Ring Road at least. There is an independent courtyard there, and a dedicated craft room with complete equipment and even fire eyes. I highly recommended."
"How much is the rent on the Sixth Ring Road?" Jiang You sighed. He didn't expect to have to worry about a house in the world of cultivation.
"The average price of the Sixth Ring is 100, but there is a set of 80 in the outer position. Do you need me to help you decide? If you are not satisfied, you can return it at any time." Yun Manluo replied.
"Then let's settle it first." Jiang Yourou said painfully, knowing that this was nearly 30% of her income.
"By the way, buy me some more Qi-Building Pills. Let's buy fourteen pills first." Jiang You said again.
"So much?" Yun Manluo asked doubtfully, "I want to remind you that this Qi-Building Pill is a top-grade pill. With your current level of cultivation, taking two pills a month is already the limit. Taking too much will not only be a waste, It might even drive you crazy."
"I understand, I'm just prepared." Jiang You replied.
Yun Manluo didn't ask any more questions and just wrote down all the goods Jiang You wanted in a golden book.
"Counting the herbs you asked for earlier, the total is two hundred and forty spiritual stones."
Jiang couldn't help but twitch a few times. Eighty percent of the two hundred and ninety spiritual stones given by Lin Le were spent. How will he live his life in the future?
However, she still had to pay for the spirit stones, but at the same time she still placed the five talismans on the table.
"This is the talisman I refined last month, and I will deliver it to you now. But can you tell me how much profit I can get from these talismans?" Jiang You asked again.
Yun Manluo looked at the talisman for a while, and then praised: "My sister has actually reached the level of the ninth level! These nine-level spiritual talismans are naturally more expensive than the previous seven-level ones. If nothing else, You can probably get four hundred spiritual stones."
"That's good." Jiang You said with relief. Although this is not financial freedom, it should be able to ensure a balance of income and expenditure.
Yun Manluo put away the talisman with satisfaction, and then asked: "Is there anything else you want to buy, sister?"
Jiang You thought for a while and replied: "I do want to buy something else, but unfortunately I don't have enough spiritual stones."
"If sister really wants it, I can advance these four hundred spirit stones to you first." Yun Manluo said with a faint smile.
Jiang You then said: "I passed by the Jiaofang Department just now and heard from my sister that the girls there have signed a contract of sale with Tianyin Pavilion, so I want to ask if I can buy a slave here. I want to buy a slave with a golden spirit root. It’s best to have a cultivation level close to the peak of Qi training, but not higher than foundation building.”
Yun Manluo shook his head slightly and said: "How can a female cultivator at the peak of Qi training sell herself easily? With her strength, she can always find a way to support herself. Not to mention that the maids of the Jiaofang Division are all carefully cared for by our Tianyin Pavilion. After being trained, countless people want to redeem them, and their value is not low."
"I was the one who was abrupt." Jiang Youye shook his head and said, "Then where can I buy a suitable maid? It doesn't matter if the cultivation level is lower."
Yun Manluo shook his head again and said: "Sister, please wait for me to finish. It would be really difficult if it were normal. But recently, Xirong destroyed the country. Many horse bandits and even the army of small countries have captured many female relatives of the royal court of Xirong and sold them to Dahua, our Tianyin Pavilion just happened to acquire a batch."
Since there is still such a black trade, it is right to think about it. As prosperous as China, there are people who have to sell themselves as maids in order to make a living, let alone Xirong, whose country has been ruined and family is ruined.
But it has to be said that Jiang You, who came from a new society, is still very resistant to this kind of human trafficking. But in other words, it is better to be bought by Jiang You than by someone like Lin Kuang. After all, Jiang You just wants to find someone. A tool to help you practice, not a tool to vent your desires.
"There are three rooms here. The people in the first room are more submissive and are of great training value for our Tianyin Pavilion. If you want to buy it, you may need hundreds of spirit stones. The people in the second room are still insisting. The Jiaofang Secretary The nuns in the room are working on their tempers, and you can choose one from them by spending dozens of spirit stones; the people in the third room are all stubborn, and they are unwilling to pick up guests even if they commit suicide. We are planning to let them work as handymen. , just take it if you like it."
If you choose a woman with golden spirit roots to seal, the person in the first room may be the best choice, because they are obedient and will naturally not cause chaos in the space. But Jiang You became interested in the third room instead. Perhaps because of her appreciation of their will, or perhaps because she was really short of money, she directly opened the door of the third room.
At this time, there were more than a dozen girls from the Western Regions with messy hair and ragged clothes sitting in the room. Their faces were ashen, their bodies were covered with scars, and their faces had expressions of despair.
"I need a maid. I don't need to receive guests. I will even spend elixirs to help her practice, but the prerequisite is that the master and servant spirit must be completed, and it must be a golden spirit root. Which of you meets the requirements and is willing to go with me?" Jiang You Dan said that this was also an idea that came to her temporarily. Maybe she could find someone she could trust among these women in desperate situations.
Many women immediately showed strange expressions, but they immediately gave up thinking about asking the master and servant to imbue them with spirits. After all, it was a fatal matter. Even if they succeeded, they might not go back on their word?
However, a woman covered in rags stood up.
"I can promise you, and I can do anything for you, but you must agree to one condition! Redeem my brother's life and give him freedom." The woman said resolutely.
"Who is your brother?" Jiang You asked.
"Her name is Tong Bi, and she is in the first room now." The woman replied.
Jiang You looked at Yun Manluo curiously. He didn't expect that the man was also in Jiaofangsi's plan, but he didn't think it was strange when he remembered that Tianyin Pavilion also had a male favorite.
"The people in the first room are carefully chosen, and they are not cheap." Yun Manluo reminded.
"Is four hundred enough? Otherwise I have to borrow money." Jiang You asked without thinking. She felt as if she had discovered a treasure, not because of the other person's cultivation qualifications, but because of the other person's pure inner strength. Since you can find someone you absolutely trust, you can naturally focus on training him at all costs.
"I'll go negotiate with grandma."
After Yun Manluo finished speaking, she took the spirit stone and went out. After a while, she brought back a girl boy. The boy looked as ordinary as someone else, and had both the beauty of the East and the West. If it were placed in Jiang You's original In this world, he is definitely a young person. If he learns basketball, singing and dancing, his popularity will definitely be very popular.
"I got the deed of betrayal, but what will he do with it?" Yun Manluo asked.
Jiang You looked at his sister and asked, "What do you think we should do?"
The elder sister walked up to her younger brother and said, "That's all I can do. Since you are free, you can decide for yourself whether to stay or go."
"But where can I go? Sister, how about we go together." The younger brother also said in confusion.
But my sister shook her head and said, "Since I promised them, I must keep my promise."
At this time, Yun Manluo said: "Let's do this. He can stay in our Tianyin Pavilion to find something to do. He will start as a handyman for the time being. What happens in the future depends on his own efforts."
"What about my sister?" The younger brother asked confused.
"She will be my personal maid from now on. She will be in Tianyin Pavilion. You will still have a chance to meet her." Jiang You explained.
The two siblings nodded, and Jiang You then said, "Sister Manluo, can you find me a room temporarily?"
"The side room is vacant, you can do as you please. I have something else to do. If you have no other questions, I will leave first. Someone will take you to your residence then. If there are any problems that cannot be solved, you can use Contact me Ling Xin." Yun Manluo nodded.
"Thank you, sister." Jiang You nodded, and then led the girl into the side room.
"What's your name?" Jiang You asked softly, looking at the poor man in front of him.
"My name is Tong Xi."
"I'm going to start infusing spirits next. You must have no distracting thoughts. You must also want to live. Although Tong Bi is free now, who can guarantee that nothing will happen in the future?" Jiang You reminded, "But since you have given spirit to my master and servant, you will put me first in everything from now on. Of course, I will also allow you to help Tong Bi to a certain extent. Do you understand these words?"
"I'm very grateful to be able to restore my brother's freedom." Tong Xi's tone also became respectful, "You will be my master from now on."
Jiang You just started to infuse spirits, and there were no accidents in the whole process. It seems that she really found a treasure this time, the peak golden spirit root of Qi training, and with this absolute loyalty, she can also practice all aspects of the spiritual space in the future. First level.
After the infusion was completed, a beautiful guide led Jiang You, Lin Zhu and Tong Xi to Tianyin Garden. It's just that Tong Bi was asked to get off the carriage at the tenth ring. After all, he was a free handyman, and this was her residence.
The remaining three people were taken to the outside of the Sixth Ring Road, and finally found their own courtyard beside a hill.
Yishan Garden, this is the name of this courtyard. Although the hill next to it has a nice view, it also blocks the direction of the spiritual energy. Perhaps because of this, it is the cheapest courtyard in the Sixth Ring Road.
But this doesn't matter to Jiang You, after all, the spiritual energy is not much less, and in terms of cost-effectiveness, this place is still the highest.
Entering the garden is the front yard. Directly in front of the front yard is the main building, which is where Jiang You receives guests and lives. On both sides are the side buildings, which are the residences of the maids. However, Jiang You does not intend to use it. After all, the main building is enough. It's big enough for four people.
The backyard is a craft room, which is safe and hidden. It is a place for refining tools and elixirs. As Yun Manluo said, it is fully equipped and has a fire pit, so Jiang You doesn't have to worry about the meat being cooked.
Of course, what Jiang You likes most is the spacious bedroom, which even has a bathtub connected to a hot spring. If there is access to the Internet, it will be a great place to stay at home until death.
After opening the barrier, Jiang You released Lin Bi. Seeing Lin Bi appear out of thin air, Tong Xi couldn't help but be startled, but she didn't ask any more questions. After all, this was the consciousness a maid should have.
"Zhu'er Bi'er, please fill the bath with water first." Jiang You arranged.
"Miss, are you going to take a bath so soon?" Tong Xi asked doubtfully.
"I'm washing you and helping you heal your wounds. Then I have something important to tell you." Jiang You replied.
After cleaning off the dirt on her body, Tong Xi seemed to have been reborn. She turned out to be a very beautiful beauty from the Western Regions. If it weren't for her personality and she met Jiang You, she might be able to become the top leader of the Jiaofang Division.
Since there was no change of clothes, Jiang You could only let Tong Xi wear Lin Yan's clothes. If he had time, he could help her refine a set of equipment. After all, like Lin Bi, Tong Xi might go out often.
It's just different from sitting idle in the cave with nothing to do. Now Jiang You has become busy. He has to be responsible for Yun Manluo's orders and spend time studying alchemy. He doesn't have much time to actually refine equipment for himself.
In particular, alchemy is a set of skills that Jiang You must master now. After all, buying finished elixirs is too expensive, and it is difficult to explain if you buy too many. Even though Yun Manluo said that Tianyin Pavilion would not care if others have it. What a secret, but if you act too contrary to common sense, people will inevitably think too much.
So there was not enough time. Fortunately, Lin Bi and Lin Zhu had been with him for so long and had learned more or less the essence of Jiang You, so they could also help. The order that originally took ten days to complete can be completed in eight days, which also allows Jiang You to have more energy to do what he wants to do.
But no matter what, Tong Xi's equipment could only be made piece by piece, but before that, she had to put it in place.
