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

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Since purchasing the third first-time purchase gift pack, his cultivation level has been rising constantly.

He had only reached the second level of Qi Refining after six years of cultivation, but unexpectedly, he reached the third level of Qi Refining after just half a month of AFK farming. He didn't know if it was because he had accumulated enough knowledge before, or if the AFK farming tool was really powerful. In any case, he broke through!

He is now a true cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Early Stage of Qi Refining!

Hum hum!

Unfortunately, life hasn't changed much from before.

I get up in the morning, then bicker with my dad, eat breakfast, go to work, clean, serve customers, watch the crab boss scratching his head frantically because of the accounts, get off work, continue bickering with my dad, eat, sleep, and so on.

Early that morning, while Lu Changfeng was busy in the shop, a very beautiful woman suddenly entered through the front door. Upon seeing her, the crab shop owner hurriedly got up.

"You've arrived, senior! The big boss is already waiting in the back!"

After saying that, he looked at Lu Changfeng, who was slacking off.

"Xiao Feng, I'll leave things to you when the guests arrive. I have something to take care of!"

Upon hearing the crab shop owner's suggestion, he immediately agreed.

"Okay, you can leave it to me without worry!"

After saying that, he went to the counter and stood in the original position of the crab boss.

At the same time, he was also wondering why this woman had come.

Although Qingfeng Dange is small, it is actually backed by the business of the inner disciples of Tianxing Sect.

In the world of cultivation, talent is important, but resources are also essential. Therefore, some inner disciples who have no background but some talent will try to find ways to obtain spirit stones.

So the big boss partnered with Crab Boss to open Qingfeng Dange. Every month, 9% of Qingfeng Dange's profits go to Crab Boss, while Crab Boss, who works tirelessly, only gets 1% of the profits, making him a high-level employee.

In addition, with Boss Crab constantly calculating the accounts these days, there's probably only one possibility: Qingfeng Dange is about to change owners!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. He didn't mind changing bosses, but he just hoped that the new boss wouldn't cause trouble. He knew very well how much trouble those leaders would cause to highlight their own value.

But there was no use in thinking about it; he was just a lowly shop assistant.

An hour later, with the crab owner's respectful farewell, the woman finally left satisfied.

After everyone had gone some distance, the crab shop owner returned to the shop and called Lu Changfeng to his side.

"Little Feng, I'm sure you've already guessed it!"

"Just now, our store was sold to the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce, and that senior just now will be the next person in charge of our store."

"I'm telling you this so you can prepare in advance. As for whether to stay or leave, that's up to you."

"However, I have to say this in advance. After all, I'll only be a junior steward then. If I stay, things won't be as easy as before. It'll definitely be tiring, and I'll only be making forty or fifty spirit stones a month!"

Xie Zhixing's words were very insightful. After all, he knew that Lu Changfeng's mother was an alchemist, and that the alchemy was only sent over to hone his skills, not because she was really short of those 10 spirit stones.

However, to his surprise, Lu Changfeng looked at him with shining eyes.

"Mr. Crab, stop talking, I want to stay."

Now it was Xie Zhixing's turn to be confused.

"Hmm? I knew you wouldn't. What? Stay? Why? Your family isn't short of these few dozen spirit stones!"

Nonsense, of course my family doesn't lack spirit stones, but I do lack wages. As long as my wages increase, I can accept even if it's a bit of a hassle.

After all, under normal circumstances, there are only a few ways to earn spirit stones in the cultivation world: cultivating various immortal arts or killing demons. But these two are essentially doing business, not working.

Of course, becoming a chief steward or elder of Falling Star would probably be fine, but my current cultivation level isn't high enough.

Therefore, considering everything, keeping it is the best choice.

However, he couldn't say it directly.

"Sigh, what's the point of a man from the Heavenly Star Sect constantly relying on his mother for support!"

"I can't possibly go home and ask my mom for money to treat my buddies to a meal! That would be so embarrassing!"

Xie Zhixing was taken aback by what he said, but then he realized what he meant.

Yeah, this kid is only a teenager, which is the age when he values ​​face the most, so it's normal for him to make such a choice!

He immediately laughed and said,

"You kids these days, you think too much! But since you've put it that way, I'll report it!"

"But don't complain to me later that you're too tired and don't want to work!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng patted his chest and assured him.

"Don't worry, this is just a small job, a piece of cake!"

"Besides, won't you be there then? Are you just going to stand by and watch?"

Xie Zhixing was both amused and exasperated by this, but he still patiently gave his instructions.

"Alright, alright. The people from the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce will be coming to renovate this shop in the next few days. You don't need to come to work anymore. I'll let you know through your dad when the renovation is finished!"

"Okay, I'll be going now!"

Since he doesn't need to come these few days, he can take this opportunity to investigate the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce.

In the world of cultivation, these large merchant guilds are not much different from the large companies in my previous life, but their internal styles are somewhat different.

For example, companies that value efficiency usually pay generously, while those with a "wolf pack" culture pay very little. Companies with a humanistic approach to work pay quite well, but promotions are slow.

It's impossible for a company to be efficient, unwilling to pay, lacking in humanistic care, and slow to promote employees, right? No way!

After leaving Qingfeng Pavilion, he didn't go straight home, but instead wandered around Tianxing City.

Since he could AFK while cultivating anyway, and he was just idling around when he got back, he might as well take a good look around.

He happened to know of a street nearby where people could buy things for free, which was full of thieves, tomb raiders, and other people of dubious origin.

The items that were easy to sell have already been sold off, while those with little value are bought up in bulk by the locals at a low price. After all, thieves also have a holding period, so it's better to get rid of them at a low price than to lose them.

He soon arrived at Longhu Street, which is also known as Antique Street by ordinary people. As for the "zero-yuan shopping street," that's what insiders call it.

However, he had only heard that the things inside were very wild, but after seeing them today, he realized that what he had heard was too conservative.

"Come on, come on! Gold jewelry on sale at a bargain price! One spirit stone per kilogram, first come, first served!"

Upon hearing the hawker's cry, Lu Changfeng immediately went over, but after seeing what was on the stall, he decisively left.

Dude, you should at least give these brass jewelry a gold patina before selling them as gold jewelry!

Then he looked at the second stall, where stacks of land deeds were being sold at good prices. They were about the thickness of a one-dollar coin from his previous life, and of course, they were standing upright.

The land title is real, but there's no guarantee you'll actually get it.

But there are still many buyers. After all, as long as you get your hands on just one land deed, you won't lose money. If you get several, you'll make a killing.

Suddenly, his Green Wood Body felt a slight tremor, and the source of the tremor was the black mud balls on the stall not far away.

Before he could react, a limited-time gift pack appeared in front of him.
