The little girl's eyes were filled with tears: "Do you want to interfere in their dispute?"
The old man smiled and said, "No, I'm just a retired old salted fish. I'm too lazy to even move, so why would I bother with these trivial matters?"
"I personally still hope that there won't be a fight, but with the way things have developed so far, it may not go as I expect."
"Xue Zining appears humble and sincere, but in reality, she's a smiling tiger. She's actually quite narrow-minded and intolerant, and she pushed away many dissidents early on."
"Mu Wanyi has ambitions and is determined to change the current situation in the Holy Land, but she's too impatient and tactful in her dealings with others, which has offended many of the senior staff. Ultimately, she's just too young."
"I don't think they are the most ideal choice for the Holy Lord."
Unfortunately, she herself couldn't say who was more suitable to be the Holy Lord than them.
"I once had a dream in which I saw a boy succeed Xue Zining as Holy Lord. He brought many changes to my Holy Land, bringing it back to life."
"Unfortunately it was just a dream and it didn't come true."
"In reality, he couldn't even participate in the selection of the Holy Son or Holy Daughter at that time."
"It's a pity that time cannot be turned back, and he no longer has the vigor and vitality of his youth."
The royal sister took the candied fruit from the little loli and stuffed it into her rosy and shiny mouth.
When you get older, you tend to talk a lot.
Unfortunately, not many people are willing to listen to the old man's nagging.
She stroked Xun Qianran's head, who had fallen asleep without her knowing.
……
Zhao Kangping accompanied the Gu sisters for a stroll in the city, and soon they arrived at the rebuilt South City District.
Many independent cultivators who moved in from other places have already settled here.
As the population increased, the business here also began to develop, and many businesses moved in.
Many of them are from the Chamber of Commerce under the Qianshang Alliance and have also found a place to stay in the South City District.
When they passed by the door of a shop with a plaque that read "Yun Ji Fei Zhou", Zhao Kangping stopped.
Because he had thought about buying a flying boat before, but he didn't have enough financial resources to buy it.
But now that he has money, he wants to buy one for himself and his family.
He happened to see this store and wanted to go in and take a look.
"My benefactor, do you want to buy a flying boat?" Gu Qingyun recalled some of the topics she had discussed with Zhao Kangping about flying boats. Coming to this place was clearly a good opportunity to get closer to him.
"Let's go in and take a look." Zhao Kangping said calmly.
So the three of them walked into the store together.
They were greeted by a pretty female receptionist with a very warm attitude.
Since the flying boat is a relatively high-end flying magical instrument, its price has always remained high. It is considered a luxury item and not all cultivators can afford it.
Therefore, very few people entered the store. They looked around and saw that they were the only three customers in the entire store.
Probably because there are few customers, the store is not very big, and there is only one store manager and one receptionist.
There are no real flying boats in the store, only models or illustrations. Some high-end models even come with photo stones.
The female receptionist was a cultivator in the early stages of foundation building, which was considered a big shot among some independent cultivators. In some small forces, she could get good treatment and basically didn't need to show her face in public.
But Feizhou is not a small business, and the merchants behind it must be very powerful.
Selling a low-level talisman or a low-level elixir would only bring in a small amount of profit. However, the spirit stones earned from even the lowest-level flying boat were not a small amount.
Perhaps because the amount involved is large, even if it is just a small store, the receptionist has the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The receptionist was a smooth talker, a perfect salesperson. However, she mistook the two women for Zhao Kangping's wife and daughter, which was a bit awkward.
Gu Qingyan hurriedly explained that she was not the man’s wife or partner, and that the petite girl was not her daughter, but her sister.
Fortunately, the receptionist used humorous words to get over the little embarrassment.
Zhao Kangping noticed that the models in the store were basically small flying boats, and most of them were shaped like black-sailed boats or fishing boats.
This type of flying boat is probably the cheapest, and considering the average consumption capacity of Chuanliu City, they are the easiest to sell.
But this is definitely not what Zhao Kangping wants to buy.
So he asked, "Do you have a slightly larger flying boat here? Preferably one with a space inside."
Hearing this, the store manager came over. He was a middle-aged man with a goatee and had reached the late stage of foundation building.
"Excuse me, sir, are you looking for a medium-sized flying boat?" the male store manager asked with a gentle greeting.
In fact, Zhao Kangping didn’t know which ones were considered medium-sized flying boats.
There are many types of flying boats in the world of immortal cultivation, ranging from small boats to large warships.
Different types of flying boats have different carrying capacities, shapes, and flying speeds.
There are so many tricks involved that it is impossible for an outsider to understand.
"I don't know if the one I want is considered medium-sized."
"The length is about seven or eight zhang. It can be slightly larger, but no more than fifteen zhang."
"It would be best if there were a space of several dozen feet square inside."
Zhao Kangping stated his general needs.
The store manager thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, the model of the medium-sized flying boat is in the back. Please follow me."
Led by the middle-aged store manager, the three of them followed him inside.
Models of small flying boats usually have multiple models in a display case.
But when they arrived at the area where the medium-sized flying boat models were placed, they saw that the models of those medium-sized flying boats were all placed independently on a base.
The medium-sized flying boats here have a variety of shapes and are very design-conscious. It can be seen that the designers put a lot of effort into them.
The base of the model contains various introductions and parameters of this flying boat.
Zhao Kangping had no special knowledge of flying boats before, so he was completely in the dark and dizzy.
The store manager showed them the various models of flying boats one by one. This middle-aged man had excellent eloquence and could list a lot of advantages for each flying boat. He could even make a dead one look alive.
On one occasion, when the middle-aged man was praising a certain flying boat, Zhao Kangping heard Gu Qingyun's voice in his sea of consciousness.
"This model isn't for you. It has a lot of redundant compartments, which makes it slow for a bike in this price range, and it uses a lot of energy."
"It was originally used for commercial cargo transportation. This one must have been modified."
"I suggest you ask him directly about the Green Catfish flying boat."
Fortunately, Gu Qingyun knew more than Zhao Kangping and could give him some advice.
The Green Catfish is a series of medium-sized flying boats. Its shape is somewhat similar to the yachts in Zhao Kangping's previous life. This series roughly meets Zhao Kangping's needs.
He immediately asked the store manager if he had a green catfish-type flying boat.
After asking, I found out that it really exists here.
They are respectively green catfish type 3 and green catfish type 7.
Although these two models belong to the same series, there are many differences in their size and loading modules.
The Green Catfish Type 3 was about 76 feet long and had three decks. This model was large enough to accommodate dozens of people.
The Qing Catfish Type 7 is about 95 feet long, has four decks, and is much fatter than the Type 3, with a large rear end. Its most eye-catching feature is the large outdoor swimming pool.
As the store manager explained, it turned out to be not a swimming pool but a large bathing area.
It seems that it is OK, I can do it without any cover...
Ugh, that's too obvious. If he invites the girls on board, he'll probably be accused of having ulterior motives.
Zhao Kangping asked, "Is there a bathing pool inside?"
"Actually, this Catfish Type 7 also has a bath inside."
"Hmm? Then there are two baths. Wouldn't this one outside be redundant?"
"That's not the case. Some customers require a place that can accommodate multiple people... ahem, you know the purpose."
The store manager gave him a look that all men understood.
He didn't even avoid the two sisters next to him.
Too extravagant, too corrupt. How could the world of immortal cultivation become like this?
Mr. Zhao must be criticized.
After much thought, he decided to ask the girls for their opinions.
See which one they like, or if they have any other requests.
The first person he contacted was his senior sister, and this time she responded very promptly.
However, the senior sister's reply was to tell him not to buy it.
Because she is the master of the holy land, she has her own flying boat, and it has all the necessary functions.
However, that flying boat is partly public property. It actually belongs to the Holy Land and must be returned to the Holy Land after Senior Sister steps down as Holy Lord.
Furthermore, the flying boat was equipped with a weapon module, which had certain military applications. It was not easy to operate such a flying boat recklessly, as it would be ridiculous if someone mistakenly thought it was a malicious intrusion into the airspace.
Zhao Kangping: "Senior Sister, I want to have a flying boat of our own."
"This way, we can use it at any time without going through the approval process on the part of the Holy Land."
Any flying boat registered in the name of the holy land must be applied for before it can be dispatched.
Although the people in charge of approval didn't dare to block the Holy Lord's use, it was still a bit troublesome. So it was more convenient to use it yourself.
Mu Wanyi: "If you really want to buy it, take a few pictures to show me the style."
So he took pictures of the two models of the green catfish from multiple angles and showed them to his senior sister.
Mu Wanyi: "It's so ugly."
She didn't like either of these two.
Zhao Kangping's face turned bitter, and he said to the store manager, "Do you have any similar flying boats? I want one with a nice design."
This is a huge problem. Ordinary people would probably find it difficult to serve such a customer.
But the store manager is obviously professional.
"Sir, the question of whether it looks good or not is too subjective. Everyone has different preferences."
"Just tell us what you want. We have first-class designers. As long as you tell us and it's within a reasonable range, we can customize it for you." This store also accepts customized services, and the store manager took the opportunity to introduce it to Zhao Kangping.
In addition to the standard models, the sale of flying boats allowed for some private customization. As long as one could afford the spirit stones, any order was acceptable.
"Well, if you're interested in ordering something from us, we can take you to our foundry to have a look."
"Somewhere else?"
"Not far, about thirty miles from River City."
After Zhao Kangping finished talking to the store manager, he discussed it with the Gu sisters.
Gu Qingyun was very excited and clamored to go.
"Well, let's go check it out."
514 Test driving a flying boat, plane crash
The three were taken to a flying boat foundry located on the mountain.
Only when he got here did Zhao Kangping realize that this world dominated by the immortal cultivation civilization had developed to a level that was not inferior to the technological civilization.
Although the civilian productivity of the mortal world still lags behind that of the Blue Planet, various giant vehicles capable of carrying people and flying have been produced here.
The first thing they saw when they arrived at the foundry was a giant ship-shaped flying boat under construction.
As he walked into the huge shadow of the hill-like building ship, Zhao Kangping craned his neck but couldn't get a full view of it. He suddenly felt insignificant.
At this time, the general skeleton of the building ship has been built and the assembly of various modules is in progress.
It is still under construction, and the highest point is more than twenty feet from the ground, almost as high as more than twenty floors.
