Chapter 37: Life in the Fairy Village (2)
After getting the title, Jin Ling figured out the relationship between the title and the maintenance of the prince and the door guest in a short period of time.
Wang Chong is the head of a village, and according to the regulations, there can only be ten immortals under the owner of Xiancun Village, and the ten people's money is from the treasury of the Immortal Kingdom. And Wang Chong has the title of Qu Jue and has the right to raise ten people, so if there are more than ten immortals under him, the extra people's commissions must all be paid by individuals.
The next level of Ding Jue, such as Jin Ling's current title, can only raise one person. Because Jin Ling does not have an official position, he is fully responsible for this person's commission.
Shi, also known as the doorman.
The doorman enters into an employment relationship with the person who owns the title by signing a contract. The knight is often referred to as the lord and provides commissions, training grounds, weapons and equipment, exercises, etc., to help him improve his strength and provide him with money, while the doorman is used to help the knight by force when he or she needs it.
According to the contract level, the door customer can be roughly divided into five levels: guests, guests, diners, distinguished guests, and rare guests.
The lowest level of visitors, signing every day, only coming to mix three meals and one day's money, may come the next day, or may not come. But on this day, you must obey the commands of the Lord's house. In fact, it is equivalent to short-term work in disguise.
And the guests basically sign a contract with the host family on a monthly basis, and they can only leave after a full month. After the full moon, it is possible to renew the contract. The amount of money received each month is much higher than that of visitors. The teenagers who have succeeded in opening immortals this year basically belong to this level. Even if you leave, the penalty for breach of contract is not heavy.
Diners basically sign contracts on an annual basis, which is regarded as a long-term job, and the treatment is a higher level than that of guests. At present, except for the new young immortals in Juying Building this year, the others are basically this contract.
Distinguished guests are treated only after working under a master for many years, or by making great contributions, and the treatment is the best in the whole system.
As for the rare customer level, it can basically be described as the degree of life and death, in a sense, it has gone beyond the meaning of employment, comparable to life and death brothers. Elder Du beside Mo Xian'er is at this level.
And low-level nobles can also become the disciples of high-level nobles, enjoying the benefits and cultivation resources. For example, after Jin Ling joined Juying Building, he became the first level of visitor.
Jin Ling's guest seat can receive fifty copper yuan a day, and he doesn't have to pay a penny for food and accommodation in Juying Building, he can freely use the training grounds, weapons and equipment inside, he can read some open martial arts books, and he can listen to the lectures of the masters inside.
Juying Building is said to be a building, but it is actually a large courtyard, which is divided into three parts: accommodation and living area, cultivation area and library building.
After settling his simple luggage in a room in the living quarters, Jin Ling rushed to the library restlessly. There are only two bookshelves open to the immortals at the level of ordinary visitors, and there are about forty or fifty martial arts books, most of which are basic books, such as what immortal basics, primary immortal grass identification, immortal cultivation minerals, basic demonic beast identification, etc., as well as some specific weapon use methods, martial arts books, etc.
Jin Ling knew that his foundation was very poor. The books on these two shelves are basically very useful to yourself. I didn't pick it, so I started with the one in the upper left corner, and practiced while reading.
In the following month, in addition to eating and sleeping, Jin Ling came here to read books in the morning, went to the training ground in the cultivation area in the afternoon to practice and consolidate, and then read books in the evening. With the help of the Dao of Qi, he made rapid progress.
There are three or four masters in the building, who are high-level immortal cultivators, and they usually only care about their own cultivation. It is only when other immortals have questions and seek advice that they will be taught to explain their doubts. Most of the time, Jin Ling relied on his own comprehension, and there was no need not to find a master.
The vast majority of the weapons of the immortals in the building are swords, accounting for eighty percent. This also made Jin Ling realize that he had to learn to use a sword in order to roughly understand the basic routines of the opponent when facing most opponents. Usually he practiced with his mortal iron short sword. When Yang Xuan was not in use, he took this little girl's fine iron sword to practice. However, what he practiced was ordinary swordsmanship, like the "Introduction to Swordsmanship" that was common in the mainland.
He didn't practice immortal techniques. An immortal skill, for a small place like Immortal Village, is a secret that cannot be passed on, and it is not the core personnel who cannot be taught at all.
The power of immortal skills is a world of difference for martial arts.
Even Yang Xuan and the others, what they are practicing now are mostly martial arts, and the only one they have practiced is a little bit related to immortal skills, that is, "Immortal Power Essentials".
Thanks to the help of the Hope Qi Technique, Jin Ling appeared more capable than before. Thinking of the huge resources needed for cultivation, Jin Ling put more energy into the study of the art of winemaking while practicing the second half of the "Immortal Power Essentials".
There are many ways to make money, but only one of them is the most suitable for you.
Jin Ling believes that brewing is the best way to make money for himself. The good wine brewed by his father during his lifetime was put into the space of the fairy bracelet in his hand. There can be a space of about a square foot inside, which is enough to put those big wine jars and small wine jars.
More importantly, in terms of technology, there is the guidance of my father, Jin Nanshan's winemaking experience. Coupled with Jin Ling's exposure since he was a child, the so-called complex process is just a piece of cake for him.
After a series of processes such as fermentation, the green plum wine is neatly sealed, and it is stacked in the fairy bracelet, and it only needs to wait for about half a year before it can be released from the cellar to become a good wine.
......
Months flew by.
The beans have grown in a circle, but they are still the size of a rabbit. It seems to have completely forgotten about its former owner, Xian'er. No matter where Jin Ling went, he followed behind with a fart.
During the night patrol, in the middle of the night, when no one was around, the big brother of the thunder dragon on the fairy bracelet reappeared again, but its figure looked very thin and weak.
"I need a supplement from Xianjing. As long as you absorb the immortal power in the immortal crystal, I can indirectly replenish it. Otherwise, there won't be enough energy to support me to show up. Brontosaurus said weakly.
"You say it lightly. Jin Ling said dissatisfiedly, "Immortal crystals are very valuable things, where can I get them for you." ”
"Just go and buy it, in the fairy set, in the fairy shop. Brontosaurus said.
Jin Ling gave a contemptuous look, "Of course I know that there is one, but I don't need money to buy things! A most ordinary immortal crystal is at least a few tens of gold yuan, and this money can fall from the sky?"
"Ugh. Lei Long was speechless, and said with a sad face, "If there is no immortal power to maintain, I will continue to sleep later." ”
"Sleep, I can't think of what you can do when you show up. Jin Ling said casually.
Hearing this, Lei Long suddenly jumped up, "Brother Lei, I am the bracelet spirit of the Immortal Bracelet, and my predecessor was a holy dragon! After ten thousand years of war, you actually said that you don't know what I can do!"
Its figure suddenly became thinner with this excitement.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited. Jin Ling hurriedly appeased.
The thunder dragon let out a long sigh, "Yes, a little ant, of course I don't understand the role of the giant elephant. But let me tell you, I can't help you now, and in the future, if you really go to the road of the strong, I will be your best assistant! In the past, I assisted my predecessors in this way, and they were all earth-shattering characters!"
Jin Ling pursed his lips. Unbelief.
"You must find a way to get the fairy crystal. Lei Long could see Jin Ling's psychology, and he only sighed, with unwilling melancholy, and his figure slowly disappeared.
Looking at its news, Jin Ling was also a little distracted, and muttered, Xianjing, Xianjing, but Brother Lei, that's Xianjing, not cabbage.
Jin Ling's current income is only about fifteen silver dollars a month, and after deducting the use, the remaining ten years of savings may not be able to afford to buy an immortal crystal. Now, it's up to you to see how much you're going to do when you're brewing.
However, that would take too long.
Jin Ling felt that he was short of money, very short of money. Awakening the Thunder Dragon requires immortal crystals, which are a luxury item that costs tens of hundreds of gold dollars each. I have a fine iron short gun, and I also need a commonly used fine iron weapon, which also requires at least dozens of gold yuan.
More than once, he wanted to go to the Iron Village and dig up a large piece of refined iron ore like that time, but in the end he gave up. No one should be allowed to perceive the secret of the fairy bracelet. A large piece of fine iron was dug up there again, which was too noticeable.
I was worried about money every day, and then I really thought of a solution. That is, in addition to training, he went to the camp at the foot of the mountain to work hard to earn money for the demon hunting team.
Lingshan stretches for thousands of miles, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the terrain is steep, and the monsters and beasts are numerous, which can be called the base camp of the monsters within a radius of thousands of miles. At the same time, the mountain is rich in minerals and produces a lot of valuable medicinal materials. Like the veins of the Iron Village, they are just the remnants of the veins of the Lingshan Mineral.
Whether it is the corpse of a demonic beast, a cub, or a mineral or medicinal herb, they are all valuable materials in human society. If you can get immortal crystals from demonic beasts, you will be even more profitable. Therefore, human immortals often form demon hunting teams to try their luck in this spiritual mountain. At the foot of Lingshan Mountain, many advance camps have also been formed for the immortals of these demon hunting teams to rest, supply, and even trade.
There are also many immortals who come here, waiting for the hired by the rich boss to escort them to the forest for activities. Since it is possible to fight the devil in a real way, there is a high probability of casualties, so their employment prices are very expensive.
Jin Ling just wants to make money through this way. Of course, his strength is not very good, and he can only lower his body and do chores at the beginning. More importantly, let's add some experience first.
He's never been to Lingshan.
Just do it. In the Immortal Village Juying Building, cultivation is actually a completely personal matter, and no one is forced to train, basically relying on self-realization. And everyone also practiced very consciously and hard. Immortals live a precarious life, they have to fight with Warcraft, and they have to fight with opponents Immortals, sometimes, they are one step slower, and if they lose a move, it is the difference between life and death. So no one dares to slack off.
After making up his mind, on this day, Jin Ling asked the director of Juying Building for leave, and came to the Dongjiu camp, which was closest to Xiancun and close to the foot of Lingshan Mountain, early in the morning.
This camp is about thirty miles away from Shuangshixian Village, and it takes half an hour to arrive on horseback. The camp is small and looks like a farmhouse. There are some wooden buildings, and more tents. The surrounding area was made of sharp wood in a few circles, and then several watchtowers were built. Two teams of heavily armed immortals patrol back and forth in the camp.
There weren't many people in the camp, about fifty people, most of them were foreign demon hunters resting. Early in the morning they had not yet set out. There were restaurants, taverns, weapons shops, and some merchant-run acquisition points.
The camp is not under the management of Xiancun, but directly belongs to Lingshan Xianxiang. The two teams of immortals on patrol are all from the fairy township. They are responsible for policing, security, and collecting taxes. Most of the merchants in the camp are also from Xianxiang.
At the gate of the camp, there was a huge sign with many notices on it, most of which were hired and hired by people.
When entering the forest, the more people there are, the better. Because you can never guess how many magic cars you will encounter and what magic beasts you will encounter on this trip. Sometimes, multiple people can save lives.
The price of employment is indeed very high, even the minimum required accompanying handyman is at least fifty silver dollars per day. As for an immortal, it is basically about one gold dollar per day. High-level immortals are more than two gold dollars a day.
However, such a price is also based on high risk. First of all, once the contract is signed with the boss, basically all the income of this trip belongs to the boss, even if you harvest the fairy crystals, you have to hand them over obediently. And if you encounter a monster, get injured, or even die, you can only consider yourself unlucky, and the boss will not give you any compensation.
Therefore, before accepting an employment, it is very important to honestly weigh your own pounds.
