The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

However, what Lu Changfeng said does make sense. What does it matter to him if others don't have spirit stones?

Lu Changfeng can think that way, but they can't.

On the one hand, this is indeed a potential growth point for sales. If it can be resolved, the mall's sales will increase significantly.

On the other hand, Feng Ninglu has just arrived at the mall and does need to achieve some results.

"Alright, alright!"

Su Ziyuan and Feng Ninglu couldn't help but rub their temples and sigh.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng immediately became excited, rubbing his hands together and raising his eyebrows.

"Hehehe, Manager Su, look what a huge growth opportunity I've discovered! Shouldn't you upgrade my employee level?"

Just kidding, what is he wasting so much breath for? Isn't it just to get a raise?

Although his salary is no longer his main source of income for spending money on in-game purchases, having more is never a bad thing.

"Alright, while your suggestion is good, it doesn't actually solve the problem. I'll give you a two-level raise!"

"Now you can receive 20,000 spirit stones every month, are you satisfied now!"

Lu Changfeng was extremely satisfied with this, and nodded vigorously.

"Hehehe, satisfied, of course I'm satisfied!"

Afterwards, Su Ziyuan and her companion didn't bother to continue inspecting the inn. They immediately turned around and returned to the mall to discuss how to make this wave of newcomers get a lot of gold coins, no, I mean, spirit stones.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Star Sect seemed to have made preparations, and within just half a month, they had a solution.

Early in the morning, Lu Changfeng was driving his Dayun car to work.

Looking down, the once boundless forest was now completely bare. Although the ground was covered with snow, upon closer inspection, the area was divided into small squares, and some areas near the sect were even occupied by people working.

Upon seeing this, he immediately understood the sect's solution: farming.

That's right, it's farming.

On the one hand, the spiritual energy outside is now abundant, so even on newly reclaimed land, it is not a problem to plant some low-level spiritual plants and spiritual grains.

These newcomers also need elixirs for cultivation, and spirit grains can be used for food and making animal feed, etc.

Therefore, farming not only helps the sect's supply of elixirs, but also earns spirit stones.

Especially since the vast majority of this batch of newcomers were ordinary people before, they lacked spirit stones and had little resistance to farming.

If you asked those rich kids last year to farm, they would absolutely refuse without even thinking about it. Of course, in reality, they didn't need to farm anyway.

However, since the newcomer has only been learning for a few months, if he wants to reach the level of farming, he needs to master the three techniques of Spirit Rain, Earth Turning, and Golden Needle!

So those who are farming now are probably disciples who didn't do well when they first joined the sect a few years ago.

As soon as he sat down back at the inn, Li Mingfei called him over to eat some melon seeds.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng immediately became excited.

Nothing major has happened lately and I'm bored, so who could refuse to watch something entertaining!

Thinking of this, the two of them squatted down at the entrance of the inn.

Currently, not only Lu Changfeng, but even Li Mingfei has reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining. The two of them can hear everything that happened at the entrance of the shopping mall next door, even if they are squatting here.

Just as I squatted down, I heard an argument coming from the mall. The people arguing were a woman who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old and was quite domineering.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng immediately asked Li Mingfei, who was standing nearby.

"What's going on? Why are they suddenly arguing?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mingfei couldn't help but laugh, then gestured with his lip towards the woman at the door.

"What else could it be? This woman thinks she's superior because she's already a cultivator!"

"So he came over early this morning, pointed at a woman in the mall, and told her to fire her and let him in!"

"The mall staff were initially baffled. The young woman was just an ordinary person, but she was doing a good job. Why would they suddenly fire her?"

"So I just refused, but the woman wasn't happy about it, and that's how the argument started!"

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but gasp.

"Wow, this woman is really something else, daring to cause trouble in the mall!"

Lu Changfeng was not surprised by this situation. After all, during the Spirit Testing Year, although those wealthy people were arrogant, they still had some understanding of the cultivation world.

Unless they are nouveau riche like Li Mingfei, most people are still very clear about what they should and shouldn't do.

But things are different during the peak years for spirit testing. They would have the spirits tested directly in the local area and then brought to the sect.

So they think they've become immortal masters overnight, and they look down on ordinary people!

It would have been fine before; although saying this is indeed a bit arrogant, it's understandable.

But what's the situation now? With a million new disciples joining every year, who are you trying to impress with your aloofness?

As expected, the operations manager couldn't help but sneer.

"Oh, you're a cultivator, so I'll hire you!"

"Get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

After saying that, he pressed a large knife straight against the woman's neck. If she dared to move, although he couldn't kill her outright, he could easily sever her arms.

Seeing that the person in front of her completely disregarded her status as a celestial master, the woman was furious, but she also knew that if she continued to cause trouble, she would be in real trouble!

But leaving like that in public was too embarrassing, so she immediately snorted coldly.

"How dare you treat me like this! You'll regret this!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

The mall's operations manager couldn't help but scoff at this.

"Someone who hasn't even mastered sword control dares to act so arrogantly here. Even if I gave you the basics, you wouldn't be able to keep up with a normal workday!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but smile.

That's absolutely true. Although the mall can hire both cultivators and ordinary people, there's a hidden condition: being able to work regular hours.

Therefore, for disciples living in the sect, learning sword control is the minimum standard. Of course, if you live in Tianxing City, you don't need to learn sword control.

Clearly, this woman hadn't even learned sword control; she must have come down the mountain early this morning to cause trouble!

Unfortunately, I spent most of the day working but didn't get any work done. Not only did I lose face, but I also had to go back at the same time.

It was quite a miserable experience.

Just when Lu Changfeng thought he could cause trouble, he was surprised to find that there were far too many lawless and unruly new disciples in this batch.

There were those who made outrageous remarks, those who made ordinary people in the city kneel down, those who paid protection money, those who stole chickens and dogs, and even those who stole things.

The solution for dealing with these people was simple: arrest them all and dump them in the mines under the sect's control.

What awaits them is a mining career that lasts one to five years.

After a large number of people were arrested, these newcomers finally understood the situation and gradually settled down.

Then, those who wanted to farm were assigned to farm outside the sect, while those who didn't want to farm could go out to gain experience or do business.

For a time, the commercial atmosphere in both Tianxing Sect and Tianxing City became extremely strong.

Old Deng, seeing this, became interested and immediately went to find Lu Changfeng.
