From a family fisherman to a water immortal

Chapter 109 Happy House

"Bricks and stones are used as walls, iron rods are used as frames, and a building several tens of feet high is built."

"No need for flying eaves, no need for jade tiles, and no need for courtyards and gardens. Just divide the building into layers, and separate houses of the same shape."

"Yes, that's right! It's a row of stone coffins. Your description is very appropriate. This is the feeling we want!"

Li Quanqing stood on his own land and explained to a group of civil engineers, and his mouth was dry.

Next to him, Li Quanfu kept holding up a building model that was made overnight, which could be opened from the inside to show the structure inside to everyone.

Li Quanqing found that it was really convenient to build such a single apartment for low-level cultivators of Qi Refining.

They don't need to eat, they rely on fasting pills and breathing spiritual energy. Occasionally, they can have a luxurious meal of spiritual rice, and there is no reincarnation of grains.

So the kitchen and bathroom are all saved.

There are dust-repelling spells for bathing and cleansing spells for washing clothes. They are all small and inexpensive talismans. They are convenient and fast.

You only need a room and a cushion for meditation and sleeping, and you can save on beds and bedding.

However, Li Quanqing is still very considerate and decided to equip each room with a set of tables and chairs to facilitate their chanting and drawing talismans.

The only thing to consider is the problem of drinking water.

After thinking and discussing, it was decided to place a large bucket on the top of the building, then lay pipes on the outer layer, and finally set up several drinking water rooms on each floor.

After all, it is difficult for this group of civil monks to understand how to open some twisting pipes in the stone wall. The requirements are too high.

Moreover, people in this world currently do not have the habit of drinking boiled water. You only need to throw two water purification spells into the water.

As for the elevator?

The monks breathe in spiritual energy day and night, and their bodies are strong, plus various light body spells and breath-raising spells.

Even climbing dozens of floors is tiring, and you still want to escape from the hands of the vicious robbers?

It's better to go back to the mortal kingdom as soon as possible to retire and spend the rest of my life in peace.

Li Quanqing felt that these monk residents might thank him for giving them a chance to climb the stairs and exercise in the morning and evening.

"Chirp!"

Next to him, the little vine wood ape was very perceptive. Seeing that his master was thirsty, he hurriedly poured out a bowl of amber plum herbal tea from the gourd and served it to him.

Newly raised spirit beasts cannot be placed in spirit beast bags for a long time, so Li Quanqing released them all in this 300-acre wasteland.

Snow leopards and golden flame tigers can burn grass to open up wasteland, and five-color chickens can catch insects in the field.

The five vine wood apes tried to plant various ornamental plants on the land after the land was reclaimed, which was considered to be a greening project in advance.

"Boss, can our happy little building really earn spirit stones?"

Li Quanfu walked over with a look of worry on his face.

He had never seen such a strange cave. What's the difference between this and living in a coffin?

Li Quanqing drank the green plum herbal tea, but he was full of confidence: "Let me ask you, how many spiritual stones do you need to rent a cave in the Whale King Square in a year?"

"At least thirty or forty spiritual stones."

Li Quanfu scratched his head and said a number.

Every market has this rule, and the cultivators must live in the caves officially certified by the market after nightfall.

First, it is convenient for management, and second, it is to earn spiritual stones.

This is the experience summed up by the upper-level cultivators for thousands of years. Instead of trying hard to empty the storage bags of the casual cultivators, it is better to be simple and rough.

If you don't pay spiritual stones to rent a cave, get out of here, don't think about staying on the street to get spiritual energy.

It belongs to standing and earning spiritual stones!

This also leads to the fact that the price of caves in every market is very expensive.

In order to get the spiritual veins of the market, many cultivators can only share a house with others, and there are even more than a hundred people living in the same cave.

There are policies from above, and countermeasures from below.

"The cave house in Whale Emperor Square is too expensive. After all, it is located in the third-level spiritual vein. Just a breath of spiritual energy is full of the essence of heaven and earth."

"So many poor casual cultivators can only choose to leave the market at night and live on the nearby deserted islands. During the day, they set up stalls on the street and practice while doing business."

Li Quanqing said slowly: "The business we do is aimed at this group of people, giving them a happy home where they can stay in the market at night."

Li Quanfu understood that their target customers are all poor cultivators in the first and second levels of Qi Refining.

Those casual cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining are too rich. Shuihua Sword Sect and major foundation-building forces are all eyeing them.

On the contrary, these cultivators in the early stages of Qi Refining either rent with others or leave the market at night and live on deserted islands.

The forces that look down on the spiritual stones in their pockets are not too strong themselves. At most, they are small Qi Refining families.

Li Quanqing has the support of Qingyu Li Clan, so he is naturally not afraid.

"Boss, this way, our profit will be reduced accordingly."

Li Quanqing held up a finger: "My tentative price is 1 Lingsha per day."

Living for a month is 30 Lingsha, 0.3 Lingshi.

Renting for a year is only 3.6 Lingshi, which is ten times the price of ordinary caves!

Even Li Quanfu couldn't help but gasp when he heard this number: "Boss, this is too low, can we make any money?"

Li Quanqing laughed: "According to the current plan, each Happy House has 33 floors, and each floor can accommodate 20 households. Can you calculate how much we can earn every year with two buildings?"

He also wanted to build it higher, but the Whale Emperor Square had a rule that any higher would touch the protection range of the island protection formation.

Moreover, although there were many low-level cultivators, two floors were enough.

If there were more, firstly, the spirit gathering formation would not be enough, and secondly, too many spirit stones would be earned, which would easily make people jealous, and the Li family would not be able to keep it.

"Those cultivators above the fourth level of Qi Refining have money in their pockets and look down on this kind of coffin house, so the luxurious cave house forces operated by the foundation-building forces are not affected at all."

"When the time comes, send part of this spirit stone to the Supreme Elder, and then send part to the Sword Sect Elder stationed in the Whale Emperor Square, and that's it."

Li Quanqing touched his chin.

Even if this business really fails in the end, the worst case scenario is to tear it down and rebuild it, anyway, the land is his own.

This group of civil engineering cultivators built very quickly, first letting the gold spirit root cultivators manipulate various metal rods to build the skeleton of the building.

Then the earth spirit root cultivators covered the metal skeleton with hard big stones to divide the floors and rooms.

Considering privacy, sound insulation and the destructiveness of monks, the wall is two or three feet thick, which is a thousand-year wonder in the mortal dynasty.

Finally, the wood spirit root monks checked for leaks and filled the gaps to create doors, windows and furniture.

In order to make the two buildings look good and to consider the mental health of the monks.

Li Quanqing deliberately left a floor-to-ceiling window made of glazed glass in each room, embedded in the stone layer.

From the outside, two nearly 100-meter-high glass buildings stand on the shore of the lake, shining in the sun, which is spectacular.

When has such a spectacular building appeared in the ancient and conservative world of immortal cultivation?

Before it was completed, it had attracted the attention of many monks in the market. Every day, people came to ask what they were building.

After the two main buildings were built, the next step was the two supporting commercial streets.

Li Quanqing chose the street-facing shops on the upper and lower floors. The upper floor can be used for living. The shops are neat and uniform, with a sense of neatness and order.

He originally wanted to copy the large supermarkets in his previous life and build a shopping center for cultivators.

But considering the lawless nature of the independent cultivators, he finally canceled this plan.

Honestly, rent the shop to the independent cultivators and collect rent.

Thank you for the 6500 points reward from the helmsman [Guoke Chengyang], who is really my bread and butter. The author thanks you.
