"Brother, please click on your spirit stone."
A soft and crisp female voice came to Liu Yu's ears. It sounded familiar. Liu Yu looked for the sound. Behind the fourth window at the front desk, a woman with a beautiful face was smiling and receiving a man in front of the window. There is a jade case on the countertop in front of the window, with rows of spiritual stones neatly placed on the jade case.
Liu Yu was delighted to discover that this beautiful woman was actually Fang Lanlan, whom he had met twice before. Unexpectedly, she was also transferred to Beiluan City.
Fang Lanlan has a delicate face with oval seeds, slender eyebrows, bright eyes and white teeth, and a fair complexion. Especially her smile is very pure, giving people a freshness like a spring breeze, showing the delicate charm of Jiangnan women.
Liu Yu's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by this beautiful smile. The nervousness and discomfort caused by his first duty turned into a throbbing in his heart.
Fang Lanlan's smile made the boring time pass quickly. Liu Yu and another guard were moved outside the hall. The front of the Lingzhuang hall was composed of six cloud-carved wooden doors to form three entrances. The two men stood on the left and right respectively. , far apart, upright like a javelin, looking ahead.
Outside the hall of Huang Shengsheng Manor is a wide street, which is extremely noisy with a constant flow of pedestrians. A cold wind blew on the street, and Liu Yu couldn't help shivering, and hurriedly used the spiritual power in his Dantian to circulate throughout his body to dispel the coldness in his body.
At Youshi, it was already dark, and Lingzhuang finished the day's business on time and closed all the store doors.
At this time, more than sixty people gathered in the hall of Lingzhuang, all of them were disciples of the sect who worked in Lingzhuang. The daily meeting began, which was not long. Taoist Lingxue personally presided over it, briefly summarizing the results of the day, and discussing Plans for tomorrow.
"Fellow brothers, hello everyone, I'm Liu Yu, I'm here for the first time, please give me some advice." Liu Yu came to the front, faced everyone, and said with cupped hands.
Liu Yu and the other six newly joined people each stepped forward and briefly introduced themselves, and then everyone dispersed.
Liu Yu and the other six were left behind. Taoist Lingxue introduced them in detail to Lingzhuang's rules and regulations, business procedures, work and rest times, etc., and then allowed the six of them to leave through the back door.
Liu Yu and others returned to the "Huangyi Courtyard" together. First, they went to the dining hall. They had not eaten anything all day. They talked about their feelings about the day, and they all felt very fresh. After coming out of the dining hall, they each went back to their own homes.
Liu Yu sat slumped on the Taishi chair. He was very tired after the day. He had been standing all day and his legs were sore and numb. He had never stood for such a long time and he was not used to it. And it was extremely boring. Thinking of having to do this every day from now on, Liu Yu felt irritable.
"Dong, dong, dong", there was a knock on the door, and Liu Yu got up and went to open the door.
"Come in quickly." Liu Yu opened the door and saw Xiao Jun, and said quickly.
"Brother Liu, you're back so late." Xiao Jun said.
"After I came back, I went to the dining hall. Brother Xiao sat down first." Liu Yu greeted.
"Brother Liu, what position have you been assigned to?" Xiao Jun asked casually.
"The guards at Lingzhuang are very boring." Liu Yu said with a wry smile while setting up the tea set.
Liu Yu first heated the cold water in a large pot. After the water boiled, he started to rinse the teapot and teacups. After rinsing, he poured out the remaining boiling water, took out a white jade bottle, filled the pot with clear spring water, and used his magic power again. Bring to a boil.
The white jade bottle is an ordinary auxiliary magic weapon that can be used to hold a large amount of liquid. It was given to Liu Yu by Tang Hao. The jade bottle is filled with spring water from the Huangsheng Mountain.
Liu Yu then took out a few tea leaves from the tea box, put them in a white porcelain teapot, poured in boiling water and soaked them. The tea leaves were green-brown in color, with red and green leaves. The brewed tea was orange-yellow, bright and fragrant.
"Brother Xiao, please wait for some tea!" Liu Yu picked up a cup of steaming tea and handed it to Xiao Jun and said.
"Sweet and moisturizing, fragrant aroma, good tea!" Xiao Jun took a sip, his teeth and cheeks were fragrant, and he couldn't help but praise.
"Excuse me. The secular tea is not as good as the spiritual tea. Brother Xiao will make do with it." Liu Yu replied quickly.
"Brother Liu, I'm being humble. Although this tea is not a spiritual tea, it is still the best among teas. Could you please tell me what kind of tea this is?" Xiao Jun asked.
"This tea is called 'Longshou Red Robe', a local tea brought from my hometown of Yue," Liu Yuqing took a sip and replied.
The two began to chat over tea. Xiao Jun had been in Beiluan City for three years and was very familiar with the situation in Beiluan City.
Liu Yu learned from him that the sect's properties in Beiluan City were all concentrated on Huangling Street in front of the courtyard, including Zhenqi Pavilion, Huangshengyao Pavilion, Qianfu Pavilion, Huang Shengsheng Manor, Baixiang Pavilion, and Huangling Pu Six properties.
Zhenqi Pavilion, Huang Sheng Yao Pavilion, and Qian Fu Pavilion are mainly engaged in the sale of magic weapons, elixirs, and spiritual talismans respectively. These are daily consumables. There are hundreds of thousands of casual cultivators living in Beiluan City. With Huang Shengzong's signature, Reputation, business in the store is very hot on weekdays.
Baixianglou is a restaurant opened by Huang Shengzong. It provides various grades of spiritual meals, delicacies and leaves, spiritual animals and game. It is staffed by famous chefs. The signature dish is the fourth-grade spiritual meal "Heitan Bighead Fish Head", which is quite famous.
Huang Lingpu is quite special. It mainly buys various exotic flowers and herbs collected by casual cultivators from the Black and White Mountains at high prices, as well as furs, spiritual meat, animal bones obtained from hunting spiritual beasts, etc., and all kinds of strange spiritual materials. You can try your luck in the store. If you look at something inconspicuous, you might be able to sell it for a high price.
These six properties are all located on Huangling Street. The stores are extremely tall, bright and beautiful on the outside, and the interiors are very gorgeous. Together with other exquisite shops on both sides of the street, they form a small market, which is well-known in Beiluan City. , many casual cultivators are willing to go shopping on Huangling Street and buy some favorite items.
Huang Shengzong has nearly a thousand disciples in Beiluan City, all of whom are engaged in various affairs in these six industries. Xiao Jun is a talisman master in Qianfu Pavilion. He knows some talisman-making skills and can draw some low-level talismans. symbol.
Qianfu Pavilion provides free spiritual materials for drawing talismans, such as spiritual paper, talisman pens, spiritual blood, etc. Xiao Jun needs to draw a certain number of talismans every day for sale in the store.
There are dozens of junior talisman masters like Xiao Jun in Qianfu Pavilion. Each of them repeatedly draws the same commonly used talisman in order to increase the success rate and control the finished product of the talisman.
What Xiao Jun repeatedly draws every day is a first-grade intermediate "divine walking talisman". Each one in Qianfu Pavilion is sold for 70 low-level spiritual stones. Xiao Jun can get one piece every time he successfully draws a "divine walking talisman". The commission from low-level spiritual stones is a huge waste.
On average, Xiao Jun can draw fifty "divine walking talismans" every day, and earn fifty low-level spiritual stones a day. In one month, he can earn 1,500 low-level spiritual stones, plus his monthly salary is 200 low-level spiritual stones. Just enough to maintain his daily practice, Liu Yu was envious after hearing this.
The monthly salary for the job Liu Yu was assigned was only one hundred and twenty low-level spiritual stones, which was more than a cent behind Xiao Jun.
