Chapter 81 Buying a Manor

"manor."

Mo Xi thought for a moment and said, "I remember there are a lot of manors in the west of the city. They were left behind by those immigrants. They have been abandoned for too long. I think I can buy one at the City Hall."

“I don’t know how much it can be bought for?”

Yu Mu muttered and calculated the current amount. She only had less than 800 gold coins.

"Do those estates have land?"

Yu Muwen said that the most important thing now is not the manor, but the land. If you can buy the land directly, you don’t need the manor.

"some."

Mo Xi said affirmatively: "The manor and the land used to be linked, but since the land was scrapped, no one wants it anymore."

"That should be cheap!"

Yu Mu immediately went to the City Hall.

"Hello, did you say you wanted to buy land?"

The clerk asked her in surprise, as if he was afraid that he had heard it wrongly.

"Yes! Can I buy land here?"

"Yes, there are manors and lands of different sizes and prices in the west and east of the city. Here is the price list, you can take a look." The clerk handed her a very old notebook very experiencedly.

"Thanks."

Yu Mu took it and looked at it, and found that although the land had been abandoned, the price was still very high.

Turning to the first page, she saw a manor priced at hundreds of thousands of gold coins, which was not something she could afford. Yu Mu just glanced at the price and quickly flipped to the back. Fortunately, the prices got lower as she went on, tens of thousands or thousands of gold coins, and so on. She flipped to the end and finally saw a small shabby house, the Lin Family Manor: located in the western suburbs of the city, the selling price was one hundred gold coins, and it came with ten acres of land.

Very cheap.

Although the land is not much, it is enough for her now.

This was a price Yu Mu could afford. She immediately pointed at the house and said, "I want to buy this manor."

"Yeah, that's good."

The clerk took the notebook and said, "Please fill out these information, and then go over there to pay the money."

Money makes things easier. Yu Mu quickly bought this small manor with ten acres of land. She was very curious about what this place was. She immediately took the key and all the documents and called a manned airship to go to the Lin family manor.

Manned airships are like taxis in the past.

It took an hour for Yu Mu to arrive at the place.

This place is very desolate. At first glance, it is full of black pollution sources. Even the pollution in the air is many times higher than that in the city. Her manor is a three-story wooden house. The sign in front is tilted on the side of the road, and the words on it are no longer clear. There is a large piece of land behind the wooden house, which is very empty.

"There's a lot of pollution here, so we can't stay here for too long."

The airship master reminded Yu Mu that he wanted to leave.

"Can you wait a moment? I want to go down and take a look."

"You can't go down!"

Upon hearing her dangerous suggestion, the airship master immediately turned around and said to her nervously, "Didn't you see the sign on the roadside? The pollution here has exceeded the standard. Staying here for an hour will absorb five pollution points. If I go to the hospital, it will cost fifty gold coins to remove these pollution points. I don't want to lose a lot of money just because of your few dozen silver coins!"

This is obviously not cost-effective.

The airship master was already thinking that if Yu Mu insisted on going down, he would leave immediately and would not wait for her here.

"unnecessary!"

Yu Mu smiled and turned around to take out a tube of purification pills and handed it to the master, saying, "When we go back later, you only need to take one purification pill to remove all the pollutants you absorbed here."

"What's this?"

The forty-year-old master was very confused when he took the finger-sized bottle handed to him by Yu Mu. He didn't recognize the purification pill.

"Purification Pill, very effective in purifying pollution, one pill costs twenty silver coins."

"It's so cheap, it can't be a good thing."

The old master is a dedicated airship driver who doesn't like to surf the Internet. Therefore, he knows nothing about the recently popular purification pills. Or to put it another way, even if the purification pills are selling very well, the general public still doesn't know what they are.

"You'll know if it's good after you eat it. I'll only be down for a moment, okay?"

Yu Mu discussed it in a gentle tone.

"Be back in two minutes, or I'm leaving."

The master reluctantly agreed because of her purification pill.

"OK."

Yu Mu jumped off the airship and looked at the scenery in front of him. This place was too remote. There was a house similar to this manor not far away. Occasionally, some gophers could be seen on the wasteland behind the manor. It seemed that not only was the pollution here serious, but there were also wild beasts. Gophers were not difficult to deal with, but there were other wild beasts to be afraid of. Of course, with Yu Mu's current martial arts level, he was not afraid of ordinary wild beasts at all.

"Hey, beautiful lady, let's go."

Before two minutes had passed, the driver was already calling her impatiently.

Yu Mu frowned, thinking that if he wanted to come here in the future, he would have to have his own airship, otherwise it would be troublesome to come in and out.

She boarded the airship, and the driver said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's dangerous here after all. Not only me, but you can't stay here for too long. It's very troublesome if you absorb too much pollution!"

"Um."

Yu Mu smiled and said, "This purification pill is quite effective. You go in and out of places so often that you're bound to come across some heavily polluted areas. It would be helpful to have some extra."

"Haha, that's true, but this purification pill is too cheap. It's probably fake. You should not take too much. You are young and have little experience. You can't just believe what others say!"

The driver obviously didn't believe it.

"As you wish."

Yu Mu was thinking about the manor and was too lazy to talk to the driver, so he got off the car when he arrived.

Seeing her leave, the driver threw the bottle of purification pill into the box without planning to take it. It was not until he learned about the efficacy of the purification pill that the driver regretted it. If he had known the power of the purification pill, he would not have spent so much money in vain!

After getting off the car, Yu Mu took a look at the price of the airship.

It’s too expensive, more than two thousand gold coins each.

I might be able to earn this money in half a month, but it’s a bit slow. Should I go hunting?

Yu Mu pondered the possibility of this idea. She had gained a lot during her first two outings, and she could also see some hidden plants. It was better than staying at home. Maybe she could even find some energy fruits!

By the way, I finished the task she hadn't completed.

Looks like it's time to go hunting!

Huh?

When he returned to the doorstep, Yu Mu unexpectedly saw two sneaky people there.

One of them was holding a wooden stick, and the other was holding a sack. They were lying at the door of her house and secretly looking inside. They knocked someone unconscious and took the dragon away with the sack. It was obvious that they were not good people.

Yu Mu did not alarm them. They quietly approached and prepared to listen to what was going on.

"Strange, there doesn't seem to be any adults in there!"

When Yu Mu approached, he heard the ordinary-looking man say.

"Maybe the adults are out. Should we wait a little longer?"

Another burly man, about 1.9 meters tall, spoke in a muffled voice.
