Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

...

At this moment, almost every family in Xuzhou that had a business in creating Memory Stones, the Family Heads all flushed with excitement, personally went to the family workshop, standing on the frontline to encourage their people!

"Everyone better work your asses off for me, after we nail this deal, everyone gets triple pay this month!!!"

Honestly speaking, the Memory Stone business was quite niche, but there had always been orders, the kind that provided a steady stream of income.

But they couldn't withstand the sudden arrival of a big client.

Who started with a single sentence.

Double the price, payment first, goods later, they wanted as much as there was available.

That single, simple sentence had completely spurred the passion of all the family workshops in Xuzhou that produced Memory Stones, everyone working together, day and night without rest, halting all other business activities to produce only Memory Stones.

Having lived a lifetime,

they never imagined that there would come a day when they could get rich off Memory Stones.

Indeed, life is full of opportunities.

...

"Dig, dig with all your might!"

The most basic material for making Memory Stones was something called "soft stone," and at this time, in Xuzhou, the owners of every mine with this ore, similarly flushed with excitement, were waving their whips, present in the mines themselves!

To motivate the people below.

They even specially hired some women from brothels to perform enticing dances on a high platform.

"Brothers, put some muscle into it!"

"Swing those picks, goddamn it, after this haul is done, everyone can go to the brothel and splurge for three days, my treat!"

He was originally just a side member of the family, assigned to this unwanted mine, unable to make many Spirit Stones in a year, but suddenly there were many big orders, many small families buying "soft stone" at an inflated price.

Although he didn't know what had happened.

But he knew one thing, he was about to make a killing!

...

"Quickly!!!"

In Qiu Yuan City, a shopkeeper bellowed into the Sound Transmission Talisman, "Everything's sold out, all sold out, someone in Qiu Yuan City is buying up all the Qi Replenishing Pills, quickly have your sect send some more over, business has never been this good!"

...

"Where are the Flying Boats? Weren't there a lot of Flying Boats docked here on other days?"

"Today, for some reason, suddenly a lot more people are taking Flying Boats, and there aren't enough available, there's been no return trips yet."

...

"No way, where are the girls from your Qiu Yuan City brothels? I checked three places, and those madams told me that the girls have left, what, can your Qiu Yuan City brothel girls go for collective training or something? There's none at your place either?"

"Young Master, you're not aware, today for some reason, many people have been demanding the girls from the brothels to go out, all booking by the day. Truly, we're running short on girls."

"This is so annoying... erm, madam, I see you've still got some charm to you, do you still take customers?"

"Hehe, Young Master, you have quite the eye."

...

The entire Qiu Yuan City, and even Xuzhou,

was stirred into huge ripples after a reckless expenditure of fifteen thousand Spirit Stones, kicking various industries and countless people into frenetic activity.

The fifteen thousand Spirit Stones directly hit the sinking market area, benefitting so many that had it all been spent at an auction, it wouldn't have had such an extensive impact.

Liu Zide was resolute in following through with his plan.

He dialed up the speed to the maximum, cutting a path with Spirit Stones, in just one day, he had made nearly a hundred Internet celebrities who gained fame in unconventional, large-scale ways.

This rate of spending money,

Made the scholar twitch at the corners of his mouth in agonized madness, often feeling that this Liu Zide didn't feel any pain spending money since it wasn't his own Spirit Stones.

Apart from that,

To save time even for relieving himself, Liu Zide hired a specific Foundation Establishment Cultivator. This Cultivator had nothing else to do, his only task was to use Spiritual Energy to collect Liu Zide's urine during his commands and bathroom breaks, and redirect it into a nearby dry toilet.

The work wasn't tiring, but it was somewhat demeaning for the dignity of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Of course, after twenty Spirit Stones were thrown his way, the so-called dignity vanished into thin air.

...

And so—

After 24 hours had passed, Chen Qiu had already crawled out of the medicinal vat, left the small world, reappearing in the temple near Kai Mountain City where he had been before.

"Phew."

Chen Qiu exhaled lightly, looking at the small green Demon Fire on his fingertip, murmuring with satisfaction, "Finally, I've gained another Attack Method."

The Nine Poison Nether Soul Technique, under the influence of the Enlightenment Stone, had been cultivated to the realm of Great Perfection.

Just one look and one could feel the terrifying destructive power contained within the small wisp of Demon Fire.

He had arranged with the Shopkeeper the night before to meet here at midnight, to have the remaining Storage Rings' seals all broken. It had been a while since midnight now, so it seemed like the other party was late.

Just then!

A Liu Guang sword suddenly shot from outside the temple and hung in the air, followed by the scholar appearing cross-legged in midair, then landing hard on the ground, looking up at Chen Qiu with a pale face and hoarsely said.

"Brother Qiu, Liu Zide sent me to deliver you a message."

"Message?"

Chen Qiu frowned, glancing at the Sound Transmission Ring on his finger, which had no incoming messages, "Don't we have Sound Transmission Rings? Why did he send you in person?"

"He said he didn't dare to tell you."

"What is it, he didn't dare to tell me?"

"This..."

Even the scholar sucked in a few breaths, his face pained, before he finally forced himself to say, "Liu Zide said the fifteen thousand Spirit Stones are almost spent, only a bit over three thousand left. It's not quite enough, so he's asking if you, Brother Qiu, could spare another ten thousand Spirit Stones..."

"What?"

Fat Long's eyes almost popped out at this, yelling in disbelief, "That's fifteen thousand Spirit Stones we're talking about, not fifteen thousand coins, in just one day that bastard is about to run through it all?"
