Chapter 309 Building Upgrade

[Shop Level 1 (50/50)]

[The store operation meets the conditions and can be upgraded by investing materials and money. 】

[Upgrade cost: gold coins: 50, wood: 30, metal: 20, cloth: 5...]

A few days later.

Lindsay once again sent away customers who came to the store to buy plants.

On his property panel, the store finally got an upgrade option.

"With the help of the Golden Rule, you don't even have to do publicity when doing business."

Lindsay nodded with satisfaction.

He checked the materials in the warehouse, and he had already met the needs for store upgrades.

But he didn't upgrade right away.

In the past few days, Elini helped keep people away, so Lindsay was no longer disturbed by businessmen. However, in the surrounding streets, people are still watching occasionally.

It was broad daylight, and Lindsay didn't want to cause trouble.

So when the moon was rising high and the streets were quiet at night, Lindsay chose to upgrade the store.

Ding Ling clang——

Lindsay stood firmly behind the counter.

The upgrade of the store is just like in the game. Press the upgrade button and provide the corresponding materials, and then there will be nothing else.

The game skill automatically extracts the source of essence, and the materials in the warehouse disappear.

The entire store is upgraded under the control of game skills.

It takes less than half a minute.

The space in the store suddenly changed. While being used more effectively, the original windows were also transformed into showcases, and yellow wooden ladder shelves were specially added to display some rare or colorful plants.

As for the shelves originally hand-made by Lindsay, all materials and shapes have been replaced.

Exquisite wooden frames form plant display areas, each looking like a delicate and wonderful small botanical garden.

At the other end of the front hall, there is also a dedicated seating area.

Comfortable seats and tables are placed here for customers to rest or chat.

Lindsay stood in the store during the entire process.

As the actual builder of the store, Lindsay noticed changes in the load-bearing structure of the entire building. At least it is much more stable and stable than his beginner-level construction ability.

At the same time, the space inside the store has also expanded a lot.

This is not a visual difference or some kind of spatial expansion, but the entire building has actually become larger in size!

"Uh... This shouldn't be considered illegal construction, right?"

Lindsay hurriedly walked out of the store and took advantage of the darkness to start measuring the dimensions of the house.

Because he runs a store, he went to the city hall to go through relevant procedures before, and the other party clearly stipulated the size of the store.

Of course, the size of a personal store is no problem.

But if it goes beyond this scope, it is an open and illegal construction!

After some measurements, it was confirmed that the upgrade and expansion did not exceed the specified range, and Lindsay was relieved.

At this moment he opened the store's information panel.

[Shop: Lindsay’s Magical Plant Shop]

[Level: 2 (0/500)]

[Staff: 0/1]

[Famous: Alley shop]

[Goods: Lungwort, Weeping Beauty, Witch's Smile, Summer Bamboo, Nonleaf Grass, Emerald Gentian...]

[Furniture: professional plant shelves, exquisite counters, glass showcases...]

[Warehouse: Jueyuan Ice Jade, Steel Vine Vitality Potion, Crystal...]

Unlock one employee slot.

The store size has been expanded and the furniture has been upgraded. These are the basic data after the upgrade.

"The store has been fully upgraded, which is good."

"However, 500 transactions will need to be completed for the next level of improvement. According to this kind of leapfrog growth, subsequent upgrades of the store will probably become slower and slower."

For serious businessmen, this kind of trading volume is naturally not excessive.

But Lindsay wasn't destined to stay in one place.

The subsequent upgrade of the store will probably become slower and slower in the future. With this thought in mind, Lindsay returned to the house.

The good news is that the shop in the front has been upgraded, and even Lindsay's own living space in the back has also been upgraded during this project.

The bedroom space is larger and the bed is softer and more comfortable.

There is an additional natural well in the yard, and even the kitchen stove has been reduced to two.

Even Lindsay’s handmade wooden rocking chair has a new massage function added.

"Um……"

Lindsay stretched.

He moved the rocking chair directly to the fishing platform, and while swinging the fishhook, he began to think about tomorrow's actions.

According to the agreement, Elini will settle his income once a week.

We will meet again in two or three days.

During this time, I should go to the library in Jiuwan City.

Purchasing Phoenix Grass is just one step in treating your arms.

The other two medicinal herbs, as well as the secret realm of life in the forest, need to be prepared in advance.

"According to Dr. Tang, secret realms are very rare in the forest."

"Even if I have map skills to assist me, I'm afraid it will take me a long time to find it."

Lindsay thinks clearly.

Instead of searching slowly in the forest.

It is better to go to the library to check the almanac and related records first, which should bring a lot of convenience to subsequent actions.

……

Early the next morning, Lindsay got up from her brand new store.

He made a sign saying "Closed for one day" and hung it at the door, and then walked towards the city library.

Ordinary people need to pay a certain amount of money to enter the library. But the Awakened have the privilege of accessing ordinary books for free.

Lindsay had only walked two laps of the library when the problem arose.

The library in Jiuwan City is not large in area. Although it corresponds to the narrow building, the internal collection of books also highlights the desolation.

The bookshelves placed against the wall leave large areas of blank space.

Lindsay stepped forward to check and could see some traces of use.

"There were books originally on display, but now they are gone?"

Lindsay was confused and had to ask the library staff for help.

It was a white-haired old man.

"Old sir, I want to check records such as almanacs, but there seems to be no relevant books in the library?"

The old man shook his head slowly:

"Young man, the library here was invested and built by life scholars."

"But a few years ago, they changed the focus of their activities and moved the collection of books to Cape Lookout City. The collection of books you see now were subsequently donated by businessmen in the city."

Lindsay was stunned and said with a wry smile:

"Then if I want to check the books about the environment around the Morinaka Garden, I can only go to Cape Lookout City?"

"At least not here." The old man nodded.

"..."

"Okay, excuse me."

Seeing that there was no way to collect information, Lindsay politely said goodbye and prepared to leave.

He has no intention of returning to Cape Lookout City.

The library didn't have any in stock, so I had to go to the relevant units in the city hall to inquire.

Jiuwan City is now under the control of the seven-stage organizer. To obtain information from the other party, the difficulty and danger cannot be ignored.

He is about to walk out of the library door.

At this moment, probably because of Lindsay's polite farewell, the old man behind him kindly reminded him:

"That's right, young man."

"There is a bibliophile over on Green Pine Street. If you really want to find some information, you can go and ask him."
