Chapter 131: Chapter 89: Lao Lu, do you want a wife?_1
“”Lu Daoist, I don’t know if your Spiritual Talisman Shop has sold out of Supreme Talismans?”
Just as Lu Changsheng reached his home’s entrance, the courtyard door to the left opened.
A middle-aged man in his forties with thick eyebrows, a square face, and a calm demeanor stepped out and called out to Lu Changsheng upon seeing him.
“Xia Daoist, all three of the Supreme Talismans in my shop for this month have already been sold.”
“Are you going to hunt some Demon Beast again that you actually need to buy a Supreme Talisman?”
Lu Changsheng said, somewhat surprised.
The middle-aged man was named Xia Long and had moved in a few months ago as a new neighbor.
Like the neighbor who had moved away previously, he said he usually hunted Demon Beasts to earn money.
As for the truth of that statement, Lu Changsheng did not know.
This neighbor often went out and wasn’t home much, but he knew that Lu Changsheng was a Talisman Master and that he was the owner of Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop. He would usually come to Lu Changsheng to buy Talismans.
“I’ve made plans with a few fellow Daoists to explore an ancient tomb, so I thought to purchase a few Talismans for protection from you.”
Xia Long spoke up.
“I only have three Supreme Talismans in my shop each month, and they are usually reserved.”
“If you want one, Xia Daoist, I can keep one aside for you when we restock.”
“If you’re in urgent need, I still have a few Premium Talismans on me. I don’t know if they would be of use to you, Xia Daoist?”
Lu Changsheng said so.
He did possess Supreme Talismans he had made, but they weren’t readily available for sale.
After all, the shop sold only three each month.
Just one extra could attract unwanted attention from the observant.
However, selling Premium Talismans was no big deal.
He had plenty on hand and didn’t mind selling more.
“May I ask which Premium Talismans you have on you, Lu Daoist?”
Xia Long asked.
Lu Changsheng listed several types of premium-grade Premium Talismans.
Afterward, Xia Long purchased a Thunder Summoning Talisman and an Escape Talisman.
Both Talismans were sold for fifty Spirit Stones each, but Lu Changsheng gave a discount and charged Xia Long ninety Spirit Stones.
The other party was straightforward and did not haggle.
“Thank you, Lu Daoist.”
Xia Long put away the Talismans and bowed slightly.
“You’re too polite, Xia Daoist.”
With ninety Spirit Stones in his account, Lu Changsheng felt quite pleased with himself.
After all, this money was for his personal account.
And the cost of making those two Talismans was only four or five Spirit Stones.
A profit margin of twenty times—absolutely exorbitant!
Xia Long then took his leave shortly after.
“Running a dungeon? I’ve never experienced anything like that.”
“There’s no need for me to try it, though. Although the return is high, the risk is great too. A single misstep, and it could cost you your life.”
Lu Changsheng watched Xia Long’s retreating figure and shook his head slightly, entering his home.
He was somewhat curious about exploring the ancient tombs and secret realms like others did, but he had no desire to try such endeavors.
With the system at his side, he didn’t need to struggle and fight as Xia Long did.
All he needed was to honestly pursue his path without contest or strife, calmly getting married, taking concubines, raising children, and the Great Dao could be expected.
If he worked too hard, striving too much, he might end up on an inferior path.
Half a month later.
The child in Little Qing’s belly was born.
This child also had no Spiritual Root.
Which caused Lu Changsheng to let out a sigh.
The firstborn children of Qu Zhenzhen and Lu Miaoyun had Spiritual Roots, which had filled him with great expectations for the offspring of his wives and concubines blessed with Spiritual Roots.
But now.
Three children in a row, born to wives and concubines with Spiritual Roots, were without them.
It inevitably brought some disappointment to his heart.
“Whew, no matter, there’s no rush; the chance will come eventually.” VịSit no(v)3lb/!n(.)c𝒐m for new 𝒏ov𝒆l𝒔
“After all, this kind of thing only has a probability of one or two in ten.”
Lu Changsheng exhaled deeply, consoling himself.
And with the birth of two new babies, Lu Changsheng was faced with another concern—child-rearing.
In Nine Dragons Market, raising children was naturally no problem.
But as the number of children grew, it would become somewhat inconvenient.
One reason was that the courtyard was too small to accommodate all of them.
As the children grew, there was also no place for them to play or have activities.
Furthermore, when the children reached a few years older, he had to consider their education.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Changsheng planned to send the children to Qingzhu Mountain for upbringing when the Second Elder returned there.
In Qingzhu Mountain, not only was the environment better and more spacious, but the children also had companions.
A bunch of brothers and sisters could grow up together and strengthen their relationships.
Additionally, in Nine Dragons Market, children over six years old would be charged a residence fee, which was utterly ridiculous.
“Is the stress of raising children one of the reasons Cultivators don’t like having them?”
“After all, for a Cultivator, the ages between twenty and fifty are considered prime years, the time to make progress with vigor.”
“If one has children at that age, it’s an added burden.”
“Not only do you have to nurture and educate the child but whatever you do in the future, you also have to consider the child.”
Lu Changsheng suddenly thought to himself.
He felt that if he did not have Qingzhu Mountain as a strong rear base,
it would be quite a burden to support so many wives and children within the Cultivation Marketplace.
He might only be able to set up his family and make a living in the mundane world.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng gained a deeper understanding of the ‘land’ aspect in the ‘wealth, companionship, and land’ triad.
He realized that to start a family and establish his own Cultivation Family, it was essential to have his own land.
Whether it was owning several properties in a Cultivation Marketplace like Nine Dragons Market
or like the Lu Family, possessing a Spiritual Vein Blessed Land such as Qingzhu Mountain.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed.
Lu Changsheng’s life continued as usual.
Every day he engaged in Cultivation, Talisman Making, went to work, and occasionally accompanied his wives and Maids on shopping trips.
