I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players

Chapter 11: Zhang Huaping: Yet Another Has Died



Ning Zheng glanced at the forum after going offline.

Everyone was quite lively after logging off at seven o'clock, with each professional section summing up experiences and furiously posting comments.

[Blacksmith's Comeback, Goosegrass Treasure Sword +4, A Leap to Heaven!]

[Hairpin Lady taking off in Wuhu, after working hard for two months, we can finally craft accessory Magical Artifacts now, (screenshot) (screenshot)]

[Embroideress taking off, the first Magical Robe: Cloud Silk Clothing, beautiful! o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o]

[Alchemist is about to become the top profession of the version! The new rich player, remember, the new one, who has only cultivated for a few hours, already has a 90% success rate in refining Contraceptive Pills, but forgot to have the old steward try them, we took them ourselves and oddly felt more feminine, next time better let the old steward try first.]

...

He casually skimmed through, getting a general idea.

Reports of success and happy news came from everywhere!

The outcome wasn't far off from Ning Zheng's predictions.

It had strong effects on each profession, serving as a permanent Spiritual Root.

The only downside is:

It's harder to commit suicide now.

After all, the Spiritual Root that costs an arm and a leg, or even requires a loan to obtain, is too valuable to risk dying with!

Fortunately, those who open such Spiritual Roots are mostly Blacksmiths, Alchemists, and other stable professions, who wouldn't take on roles like Enchanters, seeking death for no reason.

It just cut off some people's side gigs as Enchanters for extra cash next door.

And that extra cash part is now compensated with "Middle Grade Spirit Rice" instead.

Essentially still Middle Grade Wine Rice, routinely cutting hair, selling Spirit Rice, and accumulating substantial gains over time.

As for this.

The senior wellspring commander [Nightly Frenzied Cultivation Sixth Body] also shared his viewpoints:

"The lifespan of the Human Race is about 100 years, requiring around 36,000 hammer strikes before one dies, I suggest using the hammer cautiously, don't activate life-burning skills and waste efforts on Goosegrass and Painting Card Magical Artifacts, no matter how high their quality is, there's no fundamental change."

"Whereas Money Child's lifespan is 120 years, they profit 20 extra years for lots of hammering, and the blacksmith profession can uniformly employ Money Child, who are stronger and live longer, offering a better cost-performance ratio."

"However, Alchemists, Spirit Farmers, Embroideresses, Hairpin Ladies, these professions needing dexterous hands can only transition to Human Race, after all, Money Child's hands are clumsy."

"Here I have a conjecture, previously Jiucai Rong ignored an option [Jiao Blood Human Race], this race has definitely a long lifespan, possibly offering a better cost-performance ratio, if this option appears next, I suggest Jiucai Rong opts for the third race."

...

Many people were responding, commenting.

Clearly, this cost-performance reasoning is excellent.

Even Ning Zheng showed a look of admiration, they are living a life well.

In just a few hours since the Soul Separation Flower officially appeared, they already gathered so much information.

[Nightly Frenzied Cultivation Sixth Body] continued:

"In the future, our manor won't be a Blacksmith Manor, but a Spirit Rice Manor, everyone can be a Spirit Farmer, and Jiucai Rong can find a channel to sell rice."

"Of course, since professions other than Enchanters don't have an easy way to die anymore, some training might be necessary, after all, the Blacksmith's profession threshold is quite low, even the Basic Realm of the Three-Body is necessary."

"Regarding Spirit Rice, my personal advice is not to look for buyers yet, stock up a bit, if I'm not mistaken, in the next Tomb Raiding Dungeon, Spirit Rice will be popular."

"This thing can allure the ghosts in the tomb, or even sell to other Demon Cultivators, it can save lives at critical moments."

"And as Spirit Rice becomes widespread, I suggest establishing a new building: a barber shop."

"Yes, a barber shop, and simultaneously a Spirit Rice shop, there shouldn't be any conflict, even this Spirit Rice byproduct, the rice hulls, can probably be re-processed, what specifically they turn into depends on everyone's practice."

...

Ning Zheng went to bed at ten.

But in the early morning, upon waking up, he found the forum still very lively, these people amazingly don't need sleep, some even chatted all night.

The appearance of the Soul Separation Flower sent a group of people into a frenzy, each profession was full of energy, aiming to madly work overtime, to cultivate a green-tipped Spiritual Root atop their heads, securing Green Hat Manor's unique status.

It's quite absurd.

What Green Hat Manor?

Ning Zheng only felt baffled at being labeled with such a bad rep.

But Ning Zheng was still very satisfied with their enthusiasm for the manor's development.

...

...

Morning at the manor.

Snow covered the earth, a vast expanse of white mountains in the distance, the trees also donned thick white coats.

In the Teleportation Array, welcomed merchant Zhang Huaping.

After all, Spirit Farmers might become major resource consumers now.

Before successfully cultivating at least 200 Middle Grade Spiritual Roots for full manor coverage, the materials for mass Spiritual Root cultivation are a huge bottomless pit.

"Hello, you finally came."

Embers Jiucai Rong greeted at the manor gate, revealing a gentle and eerie smile.

This time it wasn't a forced stiff smile, but that natural, harmonious stiff smile peculiar to ghosts.

This is a test.

Jiucai Rong was testing Embers' ability to welcome guests, if everything goes well, future receptions for Zhang Huaping could also be entrusted to him.

"Why are you also?!"

Upon seeing Jiucai Rong after his death, Zhang Huaping was once again startled, showing a horrified expression.

The kind-hearted medical student with opposing ideals who had harbored dreams was brutally killed by them, which was barely understandable.

But this one wasn't the financial manager responsible for connecting the manor?

Managed the manor's slaves and blacksmiths quite orderly.

Though lacking outstanding Cultivation talents.

Plus, managing many things left no time for cultivation, last time seen still a Mortal without Three Flowers open.

Of course, in this world, people aren't ranked solely on Cultivation.

Many shopkeepers and merchants are newly into the Five-Body Realm.

Due to long-term management, time wasted, but in terms of status, possibly stronger than Four Viscera Realm.

This belongs to special talents.

"Ahem."

Beside him, Su Yuniang observed Zhang Huaping's gaze, coughed twice, and softly explained in his ear:

"There was no choice, though he is a genius in management, his Cultivation talent is too lacking, so the Manor Master pitied his abilities."

"Therefore personally bestowed him the highest honor, killed him to enhance him with Embers, turning him into a ghost."

"You see, the lower the Cultivation, the easier to enhance with Treasure, rather than struggling to break through to the Five-Body Realm in the next life, it's better to die early and gamble on being a ghost."

"This way, he can work for our Lord of the Manor for thousands, even tens of thousands of years." said Su Yuniang.

Zhang Huaping couldn't fathom the chillness such words could come out of a living person's mouth.

Thousands or tens of thousands of years?

Too cruel.

She sighed inwardly, another one is gone.

Couldn't help but feel the manor is becoming more and more demonic, lacking humanity.
