Cultivating a family of immortals

Xu Changle immediately replied, "About five mu."

This number is actually inflated.

However, Lin Wan didn't even blink as she looked at the stall owner.

"Did you hear me? How many spirit stones are needed?"

Upon hearing this, the stall owner's face trembled with excitement.

"One acre can plant about two thousand spirit seedlings, so five acres would yield ten thousand seedlings," the cultivator calculated for a long time before finally giving a number.

"According to the previous agreement, it would be 3,334 low-grade spirit stones. Senior sister, if it were changed to mid-grade spirit stones, it would cost 34. Since you want a large quantity, let's just say 33."

Lin Wan nodded in satisfaction, reached into her bosom and took out a small bag. She then used a magic incantation to extract thirty-three spirit stones, and said to her two brothers beside her:

"This is the storage item commonly used by cultivators, called a storage bag."

"Senior sister, I have learned a lot," Xu Guan said, cupping his hands in greeting.

However, Xu Changle was extremely shocked.

This fairy master sister didn't even haggle over the price?

Anxious, he quickly gave Xu Guanyi a wink.

Xu Guanyi came to his senses and immediately understood.

"Senior sister, wait a moment."

Lin Wan paused in her act of paying the spirit stones to the other party, then turned to look at Xu Guanyi with a puzzled expression.

Xu Guanyi had been buying things in town with Xu Changle since they were young, and naturally they would negotiate prices.

"This stall owner's prices are too high."

Upon hearing this, the stall owner was taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "Junior brother, this is how they sell it all over the street."

"But we need a lot," Xu Guanyi said, pulling Lin Wan's hand. "Senior sister, if he's not cheap, let's look elsewhere."

As he spoke, he tried to pull Lin Wan away.

Xu Changle also shook his head as he looked at the spirit seedlings, as if their quality was too ordinary.

The stall owner immediately panicked, "Wait, wait, junior brother, how about you offer a price?"

Xu Guanyi doesn't understand the differences between spirit stones, but he knows the numbers.

Thirty-three pieces.

Xu Guanyi calmly said, "Twenty yuan."

Upon hearing this, the stall owner and Lin Wan's pupils constricted.

Only Xu Changle and Xu Guanyi remained calm.

They don't understand much about the affairs of cultivators, but they are very knowledgeable about how mortals negotiate prices.

They seemed poised to turn and leave if the discussion didn't go well.

"Junior brother, are you kidding me?" the stall owner muttered, thinking that this was not how you rob someone.

"You can try to negotiate a price," Xu Guanyi said seriously.

The two then began haggling back and forth at the stall.

Although Lin Wan's face remained expressionless, a hint of a smile flickered in her eyes, so she decided to let him talk.

In the end, Xu Guanyi and Xu Changle were very disappointed, as they only agreed on thirty-two mid-grade spirit stones, plus a low-grade storage bag for storing spirit seedlings.

Only one piece is missing.

Only now did the two of them realize the value of a mid-grade spirit stone.

The stall owner blushed and felt a tickle in his throat as he was being negotiated. Finally, after Lin Wan paid with spirit stones, he took out his storage bag and handed it to Xu Guanyi.

"Guanyi, since you negotiated the price, you can have this spirit stone too. It will be useful in the future." Lin Wan handed the mid-grade spirit stone to Xu Guanyi.

Xu Guan took it and thanked him excitedly.

Xu Changle was also excited, as he had had the same idea before.

If a price is agreed upon, given Lin Wanxian's temperament, she will probably give this spirit stone to Guan Yi.

Although it was only one piece, it was nothing in Lin Wanxianshi's eyes, but for the Xu family, it was an extremely precious thing.

"Has Junior Brother Wu told you? The mature spirit seedlings will be divided into four and six parts. A mature Qi Condensation Grass is worth about two low-grade spirit stones. After the harvest, it can be sold for about two hundred mid-grade spirit stones, of which eighty will go to your Xu family."

"Therefore, these spiritual seedlings must be carefully guarded, and every effort should be made to prevent any loss."

Upon hearing this, both brothers showed excitement.

It turns out that growing seedlings can actually be profitable.

"Now that this matter is settled, let's go back," Lin Wan said.

The three of them then left the market and boarded the spirit boat, heading towards Qingping Mountain.

At the entrance of the Xu residence.

Wu Yuanzuo cupped his hands in congratulations to Xu Wanghe and said:

"Two children with spiritual roots have appeared in the homes of hundreds of villagers. Uncle Xu, you are truly lucky."

Xu Wanghe also had a big smile on his face.

The appearance of a spiritual root depends entirely on luck.

Due to the previous great war, no spiritual roots have been tested in Qingpinghe Village for the past two years.

But usually, only one person with spiritual roots appears in every five years among hundreds of households, but now there are two.

Xu Wanghe was also in a very good mood.

Two children with spiritual roots, a boy and a girl. The boy is called Sun Dazhuang, who is ten years old, and the girl is called Zhao Chuntao, who is eight years old.

Sun Dazhuang is Sun Erzhu's youngest son.

Sun Erzhu stood by, tears streaming down his face, his hands trembling slightly as he placed them on his sleeves.

"Why aren't you going to pay your respects to the master?"

Sun Dazhuang obediently stepped forward, knelt down, and kowtowed three times to Xu Wanghe.

The girl's parents immediately shoved her forward, and the woman shouted angrily, "Hurry up and kowtow to the master!"

Zhao Chuntao quickly followed suit and kowtowed as well.

"Don't rush. Anyone who has been found to have a spiritual root must first go to the Immortal Guiding Pavilion within the sect to test the attributes of their spiritual root. At that time, it will be decided whether they can join the sect."

Wu Yuanzuo spoke up to remind him.

Sun Erzhu cupped his hands and said bitterly, "What the Immortal Master says is true, but my family's fortune is rather shallow. How could we possibly have offspring who could join the Immortal Sect? Being able to follow my master is already a great honor."

That was a clever way of putting it.

After what happened at the Cui family yesterday, the villagers are now completely convinced of the Xu family's abilities.

After all, when passing by the Cui family's house, you could smell the blood emanating from it.

The villagers still vividly remember the scene of Cui Qu's murder that day.

For the villagers, being able to attach themselves to the garrison and recognize it as their home was already an incredible opportunity.

"He does know how to read people," Wu Yuanzuo said with a smile, then looked at Xu Wanghe, "Uncle Xu, he's right. You can set some rules first, and then take the two of them to test their spiritual root attributes when Senior Sister Lin Wan returns."

After a moment's hesitation, Xu Wanghe said "Okay," and then continued:

"Anyone who is capable of cultivation can be admitted to the collateral branch or main branch of the Xu family according to their talent and contributions. If you two are unable to join the Immortal Sect, then you will be admitted to the collateral branch of the Xu family."

Even if one is included in a collateral branch of the family genealogy, their name and surname must be changed.

This is also why the Sun and Zhao families had their children address the Xu family as their master in advance.

As he spoke, Xu Wanghe took out a book from his bosom, which was the [Five Elements Spirit Guiding Technique].

The villagers looked on with envy.

This is the immortal's cultivation technique. With spiritual roots and by cultivating this technique, one can soar through the sky, accompanied by white clouds, sit amidst mountains and forget water, and laugh at life.

Most importantly, when one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Having a son in the family ensures that the family will enjoy endless wealth and honor.

At the very least, they could hold their heads high among the hundreds of households in this Qingping Mountain village. Who wouldn't call this family a divine couple?

Sun Erzhu is Sun Xianjuan.

The head of the Zhao family is Zhao Xianjuan.

The Cui family was once known as the "Cui Immortals".

It's a pity that it's now buried in the yellow earth.

But so what?

Everyone is willing to gamble on the consequences of even the slightest possible...what if...if...

Unfortunately, most people don't have the funds to gamble.

"There is one more thing," Xu Wanghe said with a smile, "Fellow villagers, I am honored to be stationed in Qingping Mountain Village, and I intend to settle down here. My son Chang Le has reached the age of twenty, so I am issuing this notice to find him a good match."
