Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

Chapter 46 Rich and Generous

Whether he likes it or not.

As the first disciple of the peak master of Muling Peak, he has secured a place in the entire Qingheng Sect.

It could barely be considered a small hill.

Someone will definitely try to win him over, seek his allegiance, or even threaten him.

This is something that cannot be changed.

The Liu family was the first family to come and seek refuge with him.

Moreover, the resources offered were quite generous, so he naturally wouldn't refuse the other party's request.

You should know that he also needs resources for his cultivation.

Since he has a cheat-like ability and doesn't want to go out and fight, he can only honestly farm and rely on these small forces to make offerings.

Every resource here can help him advance further on his path of cultivation. Moreover, Zhang Yan isn't taking it for free; it's a mutually beneficial arrangement.

The Liu family acted very quickly.

The day after Elder Liu gave his consent, a group of people came to his spiritual plant garden to conduct an inspection.

Then we prepared to go back and start construction.

Even Foundation Establishment cultivators from Hundred Array Peaks came to design a special array specifically for Zhang Yan's spirit plant garden.

Seeing his senior brother from Hundred Array Peak seize an opportunity and earn several thousand spirit stones, Zhang Yan felt a pang of envy.

These people make money way too easily.

I don't know.

The senior brother from Hundred Array Peak was also envious after seeing Zhang Yan's spiritual field!
Although formations can make money.

However, this is unstable. When the market is good, you can make a lot of money, but when the market is bad, you can't make a single penny.

In contrast, Zhang Yan's spiritual fields are fixed assets, guaranteed to yield a harvest regardless of drought or flood. He doesn't even need to lift a finger; he can simply rent them out for income.

Earn money while you sleep!

Nobody dislikes making money passively.

If so, it must be that person can't make money passively.

……

After the construction of the Spirit Plant Garden began, Zhang Yan was no longer suitable to live here and had to move elsewhere.

Fortunately, there are also many empty caves on Muling Peak.

He randomly picked a house and settled in.

Liu Yiting also moved in with them.

Elder Liu asked her to stay by Zhang Yan's side, naturally hoping that she would become Zhang Yan's favored concubine.

As for Daoist partners?

They are self-aware.

Zhang Yan does not dislike Liu Yiting, but he has no intention of taking her as a concubine at present.

The main reason is not justice or morality.

It's not because of that, but because, firstly, both of them are too young.

At the age of teens, which would not even be considered an adult in later generations, this is definitely not acceptable.

Secondly, Zhang Yan has not yet achieved Foundation Establishment. His spiritual root is already of a lower grade, making it quite difficult for him to achieve Foundation Establishment. If he were to break his Pure Yang Body, it would be even more difficult.

Therefore, in order to achieve immortality, he must first establish his foundation before he can approach women.

……

Therefore, Liu Yiting only took care of his daily life.

In the courtyard, Liu Yiting took out a handful of spirit rice and made "clucking" sounds.

As her voice fell.

A magnificent bird flew down from the sky and landed on her wrist. Its golden beak was very nimble, and it kept eating the spirit rice in her hand.

Silly bird.

This is a wild bird that Zhang Yan casually caught at Liu Yiting's house. It wasn't anything special at first, but after Zhang Yan kept experimenting with elixirs and feeding it, the bird actually developed a trace of sentience.

However, it was only a trace of spirituality.

It's still a long way from becoming a true demon beast.

However, since this guy was quite obedient, Zhang Yan kept him by his side, since the landlord Zhang had plenty of surplus grain at home.

During the renovation of the plant garden.

Zhang Yan also took a look at his two thousand acres of spiritual fields.

Two thousand acres of mid-grade spirit fields are naturally too much for Elder Lin to cultivate by himself alone, but fortunately, Zhang Yan did not intend for him to cultivate them by himself.

Instead, they directly contracted out all the land to Lingnong to cultivate.

He directly collects the rent.

"These are all mid-grade spirit fields. I plan to dedicate a portion to planting spirit rice and another portion to growing some spirit herbs," Elder Lin said as he led Zhang Yan through the spirit fields.

It would be a waste to use a mid-grade spirit field solely for growing spirit rice.

However, the spirit farmers would not be willing to use all of it to grow spiritual herbs, mainly because spiritual rice can be harvested three to four times a year.

Even the fastest medicinal herbs take a year to mature.

They may only mature once every two or three years.

Ordinary lingon farmers are short of money and simply cannot afford to spend such a long time.

But since planting medicinal herbs would bring in higher income, Zhang Yan couldn't possibly give it up.

Therefore, Mr. Lin needs to mediate.

Find a suitable point that Zhang Yan and these spirit farmers can accept.

Looking at the well-managed and harmonious spiritual field.

Zhang Yan nodded in agreement.

These are all spirit stones!
Also, it's really great to be a landlord!

No need to do anything, just take 60%. Originally it should have been 70%, but 10% of it was given to Old Lin as his management fee.

Although it still looks like Elder Lin's land is still 200 mu, it has changed from a low-grade spirit field to a mid-grade spirit field.

So his income actually increased several times over.

He inspected his own spiritual fields.

Zhang Yan was satisfied, and then went to the market within the Qingheng Sect.

He needs to discuss a business deal.

After all, his status is different now; he's a big landowner!
He can't possibly consume all the spiritual rice and herbs he receives each year on his own, so he needs a powerful buyer to handle them.

He didn't want to cause trouble in this regard either.

They went directly to the Zongwu Hall and found the relevant steward.

Because he was a large household, and the spiritual rice grown in mid-grade spiritual fields was much better than that grown in low-grade spiritual fields, the Zongwu Hall set a slightly higher price for him.

His spirit field already contained spirit rice, which was about to be harvested. After the harvest was completed, he received a considerable amount of spirit stones.

However, he did not keep these spirit stones for himself. After all, the spirit field belonged to Zhuge Wan before, although Zhuge Wan, as a Golden Core cultivator, certainly did not care about these spirit stones.

But Zhang Yan had no choice but to express his opinion.

So he went and bought a lot of spiritual herbs, plants and flowers, and then picked some tea leaves from the second-tier tea tree and mixed them to make Hundred Flower Tea.

After processing, the herbal tea not only tastes more fragrant, but also has the effects of nourishing yin and beautifying the skin.

The beauty and health benefits of nourishing yin are appealing to female cultivators of any age, so when he gave the Hundred Flower Tea to Zhuge Wan, he immediately won her praise.

They even gave him an extra reward.

This incident also made Zhang Yan realize that Zhuge Wan was incredibly wealthy.

Rich and generous!
You're really good to him!

"It's a pity that this Hundred Flower Tea requires second-tier spiritual tea as raw material, otherwise it could be my money-making tool." Zhang Yan said with some regret. If he could produce Hundred Flower Tea in large quantities, he would definitely make a fortune.

“However… this is also a good thing.” Zhang Yan squinted his eyes and revealed a smile.
