Chapter 1096: The so-called nobleman

In the end, they asked for an upper room in the Xianlin Hall, and Li Chuyi and the others had a place to settle in the imperial city.

The Xianlin Hall is one of the top inns in the imperial capital, and the upper room here is more appropriate than a room. Although the area is not as large as the Mu family's house, it is more than enough for them to live in Li Chuyi, and there is no problem even for three or five more people.

There are all kinds of things in the cave, not to mention the meditation room and the dojo for martial arts, there is also a backyard with a large area for guests to rest and relax. The Dan Room and the Refining Room are not only fully equipped, but also full of various related classics on the shelves, and the storage shelves and lockers are also prepared with various spiritual materials and spiritual grasses for guests to use by themselves, including rare treasures on the market, and all the consuming stores will settle the room fee together with the room fee at the time of check-out according to the market price.

Li Chuyi couldn't get through the Dao, and he didn't have anything to do with Dan Dao, so he could only salivate and stare at these two good things in the room.

However, what Li Chuyi liked the most was not the two refining rooms, but the Spirit Gathering Array in this cave mansion.

The quality of the Spirit Gathering Array arranged here in the Immortal Landing Hall is quite high, and the condensation effect on the spiritual energy is not only more than fifty percent higher than that of the common Spirit Gathering Array outside, but also has an excellent effect of purifying the spirit stones.

As we all know, although the aura in the spirit stone is rich, it is not suitable for direct absorption. For the aura of heaven and earth, the aura in the spirit stone is extremely pure, but for monks, especially for human monks, too pure aura will be incompatible with the monk's mana, and this inadaptability is what the world often calls impurities.

The aura of absorbing the spirit stone needs to be refined with the exercises it has cultivated first, so that this discomfort can be minimized before it can be incorporated into the dantian turnover and become its own mana. Once the amount of absorption exceeds the limit of what it can bear, the monk's meridians will be damaged due to the disorder of mana, and then produce all kinds of unpredictable and terrible consequences, and these consequences are simply summarized in four words - go crazy.

The Immortal Presence Hall saves most of the trouble for the monks, and the Spirit Gathering Array here can be refined in advance according to the monk's mana characteristics in the process of releasing the spirit stone aura, instead of only releasing the spirit energy in the spirit stone rudely like the ordinary Spirit Gathering Array.

This kind of refining is not perfect, it can only be regarded as rough refining, and the monk still needs to go through his own refining in order to make the aura completely used by himself, but this process undoubtedly saves a lot of time and greatly speeds up the monk's cultivation speed.

The most important thing is that the consumption of the spiritual energy of this spirit gathering array's refining is extremely small, so small that it is almost the same as the consumption of the cultivator's own refining.

Many Spirit Gathering Arrays usually don't add parts for refining spirit stones, not because the arrayers can't, but because the arrayers' formation attainments are too low, or they don't have a good Pure Spirit Formation in their hands. The Pure Spirit Array of low quality will consume a large amount of spiritual energy in vain in the process of refining, and the highest is even as much as seventy percent.

Spirit stones are precious, both as hard currency and for spiritual practice. Just to save effort and let his spirit stones be burned in vain, even the most loser may not be willing to do this.

So as soon as Li Chuyi entered the door, he fell in love here, not for himself, but for his companions.

Not everyone can gnaw on spirit stones like him without harm, at most they will have trouble with their stomachs for a few days. If Li Sinian and they follow him, it will not be as simple as having a stomach, and he will wait to go to their grave every year today.

With the Spirit Gathering Array here, coupled with the large number of spirit stones in their hands, the cultivation speed of several companions would undoubtedly be greatly accelerated.

Especially Li Sinian, half of his feet have already stepped into the tribulation, all he needs is a little comprehension of the Dao rules, and the accumulation of mana was originally a problem, but now it is obviously not a problem.

"Very good!"

Patting the soft collapse around him, Li Chuyi nodded with satisfaction towards Xiao Er.

"Can you survive here?"

"Huh?"

Xiao Er just wanted to flatter a few words, but who knew that Li Chuyi came to such a mouthful, and he was immediately stunned.

"Did I say I could survive the catastrophe?"

Li Chuyi repeated it patiently.

"Tribulation, catastrophe, crackling catastrophe, can it hold up here?"

Xiao Er almost stopped crying.

There are people who come to their shop to retreat and break through the realm, but this is the first time he has encountered it when he comes here to cross the catastrophe.

The question is, don't you find a remote and secret place for such a big event as a robbery, how can there be a guest house to cross the robbery!

This day, the fire and thunder fell, where is there still the Immortal Landing Hall, and it was directly changed to a funeral venue!

But thinking about the shopkeeper's explanation, Xiao Er didn't dare to refuse directly, so he could only cry and say with a sad face: "This, guest officer, your problem villain really doesn't know, do you think you want to wait a while, I'll ask the shopkeeper to reply to you?"

didn't embarrass him, Li Chuyi nodded gently: "Okay, you go, but don't be so troublesome, just call your shopkeeper, I still have a lot of questions to ask, lest you don't know and have to run again and again!"

"Then guest officer, you will come later, I will come when I go!"

After saying that, Xiao Er ran away, and after a while, he took a kind man with a big belly, and behind the man was an acquaintance who had just met.

Seeing that person, Li Chuyi was slightly stunned, and then nodded clearly.

And the shopkeeper didn't dare to speak, first made a gesture to Li Chuyi and a few people, and then asked the man behind him to be invited to the side, and stood silently with his hands in front of him.

"I thought it was the Mu family's arrangement, but I didn't expect it to be you. ”

Hearing Li Chuyi's words, Nalan Guangcheng smiled slightly, did not answer, but first led to the chair next to the soft collapse: "Sit down first, sit down and say." ”

You're welcome, Li Chuyi sat down one by one.

Nalan Guangcheng sat on the other side, and only after the shopkeeper personally made fragrant tea and handed it to the two of them did he smile and speak.

"I thought you'd turn around and leave without hesitation when you saw me. ”

Li Chuyi pursed his lips and said with a very speechless look: "Please, I have a bad temper, but I'm not stupid." Almost all the properties in the imperial capital are in the hands of you people, even if I sleep on the street, maybe it is also the property of one of you, unless I live outside the city, how can I not deal with you! I just didn't expect that the Xianlin Hall was your Nalan family, I thought this was the property of the Mu family, I originally wanted to live in it disgusting and disgusting them, but now it seems that there is no fun. ”

Nalan Guangcheng's straightforward words made Nalan Guangcheng laugh dumbly, and shook his head lightly: "If you let the elders of the Mu family hear this, you will definitely be annoyed again." ”

"Just be angry, the lungs grow in their own stomachs, and they have to let the master treat them if they are uncomfortable?"

"You kid, you're really... Hehe. ”

Helplessly nodding Li Chuyi, Nalan Guangcheng said: "But there is one thing you said wrong, the Xianlin Hall is indeed our Nalan family, but the land here is the Mu family, so it can also be said that this is the Mu family's industry, and the Nalan family just helps them take care of it." ”

The little fat man wondered: "Why don't you hand over the Mu family's land to you?" The corner is so good and it's not that it doesn't make money, and the Mu family doesn't lack manpower, so it's sick?"

"It's to make money, but the reputation is not good. ”

Seeing that Li Chuyi was puzzled, Nalan Guangcheng explained: "In the eyes of outsiders, the restaurants and inns in the imperial capital are all golden nests, and no matter how bad the storefronts are, they are also making money every day, but what you don't know is that in the tradition of Dayan, restaurants and inns are counted as cheap lines. Even if you decorate the store like a palace, in the final analysis, it is still a business of serving people, no matter how much money you make, your status will not be high, and you can be majestic in the face of ordinary people, but in the face of people with status, such as the Mu family, an old strong family or an official and general with public office, you will naturally be half a cut shorter. So you can earn this money, but you can't earn it yourself, you need to find a hand with a merchant family like our Nalan family first, so that you won't fall into your identity. ”

"I'll go to his Taoist priest's, isn't this still sick?!"

Li Chuyi rolled his eyes wildly.

"According to this logic, there is no noble trade in the world except being an official! Pawn shops, auction houses, treasure pavilions of golden buildings and jade shops, and all kinds of treasure exchanges, aren't these all dealing with people, all of them are cheap!"

"Definitely. ”

Nalan Guangcheng shook his head.

"Some of the things you mentioned are cheap businesses, but they are not, such as pawn shops, auction houses, and treasure houses, because they buy and sell goods rather than services, and they serve people to sell their goods, while restaurants and inns are simply serving people, selling our services. Compared with other trades, we have some similarities with the white wolf scammers with empty gloves, the difference is that we are not empty-handed, but spend different prices to arrange such a place, which can satisfy the guests, so it is considered a serious business. However, compared with the auction house and the Treasure Pavilion, it is understandable that the restaurant inn is classified as a cheap business, both in terms of the amount of profit and the nature. ”

"That's not right! The inn is just that, how can the restaurant be counted? I go to the restaurant to eat, not to eat and serve, people bring good wine and good food, and sell goods!"

"It's a commodity, but how much do you buy food on the street, and how much does it cost to go to a restaurant to eat? Besides, if you really want to buy a treasure in the auction house, even if the waiter who receives you has a bad attitude, you will buy it, and at most you will sulk after buying a few scoldings. But if you go to a restaurant to eat, if Xiao Er's attitude is bad, will you still eat at his house? You will definitely change to another restaurant, because the materials used in the restaurant and the restaurant are the same, and the difference in taste is not unbearable, but the baby is different, some of the treasures are unique, and you can't buy them in other houses if you are angry. And this is why only the service staff of the restaurant inn is called Xiao Er, and the other professions are called waiters, and the two titles themselves reflect the difference in status. ”

"What the hell is this?"

Li Chuyi waved his hand irritably.

It's just that people are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and even the same is true of the industry, he really can't figure out what those so-called nobles are thinking.

If you want to make money, you still think the money is dirty, and be a

I still want to set up a memorial arch, and I have the leisure to ponder these messy crooked theories, and take them to do something serious, isn't it?

Taoist priests often say that they laugh at the poor and don't laugh at prostitutes, and he sees that these so-called nobles are used to living a good life, and they are all idle.

"It's a tradition that's been around since ancient times, and you don't have to worry about it. Seeing what Li Chuyi was thinking, Nalan Guangcheng smiled.

"The tradition of bullshit is to be sick!"

Rolling his eyes, the little fat man scolded viciously.
