Bringing the farm to another world

After the Taoist priest boarded the boat, they became less talkative. Even Lingzhu and the others didn't speak much. They didn't dare to talk too much because they were worried that they would reveal too much information during the conversation. The Taoist priest didn't believe them, and they didn't believe the Taoist priest either. So they would chat with the Taoist priest occasionally, but they didn't say anything of substance.

Another ten days or so passed, and they finally saw Buddha City. The moment they saw Buddha City, Lingzhu and the others breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they found Buddha City, that was all that mattered. They had left a location in the Black Sea, and once they found Buddha City, they would leave another location here. Then, they would have no problem traveling back and forth between the Black Sea and Buddha City in the future.

When the Taoist priest saw Lingzhu and the others' expressions, he felt much relieved. He could tell that their reaction was indeed typical of someone visiting Buddha City for the first time, which meant that Lingzhu hadn't lied about this matter.

Upon arriving at the Buddhist City, Lingzhu and the others immediately put away the Azure Leaf Boat. They then entered the Buddhist City. After entering, the Taoist priest clasped his hands in thanks to Lingzhu and the others, saying, "Thank you all. I have other matters to attend to in the Buddhist City, so I'll be leaving now. Here is my contact information. If you have rented a shop, please let me know so I can come and support you."

Lingzhu understood his meaning and smiled slightly, saying, "Alright, I will definitely inform you, my friend." As he spoke, he accepted the gift from the Taoist priest, a small wooden sword. The sword was very small, only about the length of his little finger, but it looked very exquisite. Lingzhu put the wooden sword away and then left with the others.

After they parted ways with the Taoist priest, Lingzhu looked around and asked, "What should we do next?"

Lingfeng said, "Leave it to me." After saying that, Lingfeng walked forward, observing his surroundings as he went. Before long, he came to a shop. The shop looked very ordinary, just a general store. However, the shop owner was quite interesting. He was wearing samurai clothes but had a shaved head.

Lingfeng's eyes lit up, and he immediately walked over, cupped his fists to the shopkeeper and said, "Greetings, fellow Daoist. I have something I would like to ask you."

The shopkeeper looked to be in his thirties, with a kind and honest face. His strength was not very high; he hadn't even reached the Kingdom level. As soon as he saw Ling Feng bow to him, he immediately stood up and returned the bow, saying, "I dare not accept such a greeting. May I ask what your orders are, sir?"

Lingfeng smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. I would like to do business in Buddha City, but I don't know if the shops here are available for rent?"

Upon hearing Lingfeng's words, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Rent? Of course, rent it out! Sir, please look, walk along this road until you reach a shop called 'Buddhist Worship Shop,' then turn right. Soon you will see a small building with a plaque that reads 'Foreign Affairs Hall.' Go inside and tell the people there that you want to rent a shop, and they will tell you how to do it."

Lingfeng nodded and said, "Thank you, fellow Daoist." "You're too kind, sir. Please take care."

Lingfeng then returned to Lingzhu and the others, and followed them forward. Soon they saw the Buddhist Hall, and then they turned right and entered another street. After walking for a while, they saw a small building with a plaque above it that read "Foreign Affairs Hall".

Lingzhu and the others glanced at the small building. It was not large, only three stories high, but it covered an area of ​​about one acre. The whole building looked a bit strange, like a temple.

Lingfeng walked straight into the small building. As soon as they entered, they were taken aback because there weren't many people in the building, and most of them were bald and dressed in samurai attire.

As soon as they entered the small building, a bald man immediately came up to them. The bald man bowed to Ling Feng and the others and said, "Greetings, esteemed sirs. Are you all together? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Lingfeng smiled and said, "We're all together. We came today to ask if there are any shops for rent in the city. We want to rent a shop in the city to do business."

Upon hearing Ling Feng's words, the bald man immediately smiled and said, "Yes, sirs, please."

Upon entering the small building, there is a large hall, over a hundred square meters in size. Inside the hall is a counter, where a row of bald men sit. Several people are talking to the bald men at the counter. These people appear to be deities, while the bald men are not particularly powerful. However, the deities treat them with great respect. Everyone knows that these bald men are all followers of the Golden Light Buddha. Even if you are a deity, you still have to give these bald men some face in the Buddhist city.

The bald man led Lingfeng and the others to the side, where there was a door that was closed. The bald man pushed the door open and went straight in. Inside the door was a corridor that was more than twenty meters long. One side had windows, and the other side had rooms, but all the doors to those rooms were closed.

The bald man led Lingfeng and the others to a door, then knocked. A voice from inside said, "Come in." The bald man opened the door and invited Lingfeng and the others inside. They all entered the room. The house was quite large; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to accommodate so many people.

This room looks similar to the lobby, only much smaller. There's a counter, and three people are sitting inside, all of them looking at Lingfeng and the others.

At this moment, the bald man who led Lingfeng and the others over said to the three bald men behind the counter, "These gentlemen would like to rent a shop in our city. Thank you for your help."

The men nodded, and the bald man who had led Lingfeng and the others in stepped aside. Lingfeng and the others walked to the counter, where the bald man in the middle stood up and said to them, "This way, please." Lingfeng and the others then walked over. The man moved his hand and took out a jade slip, which he then activated. A projected map appeared on the jade slip, showing a map of Buddha City. Some areas on the map were blank, seemingly empty, but Lingfeng and the others knew that those areas were blocked because the people in the city didn't want them to see them. The map only showed the city's main streets, and the shops on both sides of the streets were either green or red.

The bald man pointed to the red shops and said, “Gentlemen, all of these red shops are not rented out. You can choose freely. The standard area of ​​each shop here is only about 20 square meters. If you think it is not enough, you can look at some shops connected together. That way you can combine those shops and the area of ​​the shop will be big enough.”

Lingfeng and the others looked at the shops on the map. There weren't many shops in the city that weren't rented out, and the locations weren't very good either.

Lingfeng and the others carefully examined the locations of the shops. Then Lingfeng spoke up, "We don't sell many items, and we rely on word of mouth, so the location of the shop isn't actually that important, but it can't be too remote either. And because we don't have many items, the shop doesn't need to be too big. What do you think of this one?" After Lingfeng finished speaking, he pointed to a location. There was a red shop there, and the shops next to it were all rented out, leaving only that one. That shop's location wasn't great, but it wasn't too bad either.

Lingzhu said, "It's up to you. If you think it's okay, then it's fine."

Lingfeng nodded, then asked the bald man, "How much for this shop?"

The bald man glanced at the location of the shop and then said, "One hundred cubic meters of soil, or something of equal value, will do."

When Lingzhu and the others heard the price, they were all taken aback. It wasn't that the price was too high, but rather that it was rather low. Lingfeng asked, "Is there anything wrong with this shop? What do the shops on both sides of it do?"

The bald man said, "There's nothing wrong with that shop. It used to be a general store. Later, the owner quit, and the shops on his left were rented out to open a tavern. The shop on his right was also a general store, but he opened it after the previous general store closed down."

Lingfeng nodded and said, "Can we take a look at that shop? If there are no problems, we can rent it directly."

The bald man said, "Okay." After saying that, he turned to the bald man who had led Lingfeng and the others and said, "You take these gentlemen to see the shop. Here, take this. If the gentlemen agree to buy the shop, just sign the contract with them directly. It will save them the trouble of running back and forth." As he spoke, he took out a spatial bag and gave it to the bald man.

The bald man responded, took the spatial bag, and then walked to Lingfeng and the others, gesturing for them to enter, saying, "Please, gentlemen."

Lingfeng and the others nodded, and then they followed the bald man outside. The bald man quickly led them to a shop. The shop was not large, only about four meters wide, but it did not look dilapidated. To the left was a tavern called "Hidden Sun and Moon in a Pot", and to the right was a shop called "Liu's Grocery Store".

Although this place isn't exactly a main street in the city, it's not exactly remote either. It's a really nice shop. Lingfeng and the others followed the bald man into the room. The room was very clean, with wooden floors, a row of counters, and shelves in the back. However, it was only about 20 square meters in total, and you could see everything at a glance.

The front of the shop is probably used for selling goods, and behind the shelves there should be a small room, but it looks like it can only be used for sleeping, not for anything else, because it's too small. However, Lingfeng and the others are quite satisfied with the shop. (End of Chapter)
