Ning Xuan never expected that going on a vacation and hiking to relax would lead to disaster. A mischievous kid disturbed a hornet's nest and sprinted away, but she, with a body aged beyond her...
Why is there an extra chapter in chapter 91?
Lin Yuhan was thrilled. She never expected that she could actually cultivate. However, the spiritual energy in the city was extremely thin. Moreover, after successfully drawing energy into her body, she became even more sensitive to the turbid air in the air.
She still feels uncomfortable staying in the city.
She tried going to the suburbs and found that the situation there was indeed better than in the city. Then, she went to a guesthouse in the countryside for a few days to practice in seclusion, and it actually worked.
Lin Yuhan discovered that the more sparsely populated and lush the place, the more concentrated the spiritual energy would be. Of course, this concentration was only relative to the situation in the city; in reality, it was still quite thin.
However, Lin Yuhan was already quite satisfied with being able to cultivate. Her skin was already smooth and flawless after taking the Beauty Pill, but she didn't expect that after it was introduced into her body, her skin condition would improve even further.
She plans to buy a villa in the suburbs with a good view. If she can't find one, she plans to move to the suburbs, which will make it easier for her to cultivate in the future.
As for the supermarket and stores, the staff usually take care of them, and she only needs to make a trip every few days, or if there is an emergency.
Villas are quite expensive, but luckily she can afford one now. She also has a lot of good products that she hasn't sold yet.
Lin Yuhan is currently in a period of heightened excitement during her cultivation and doesn't want to waste time looking for villas. Instead, she directly contacted a real estate agent to view all the properties online first, and only if she was satisfied with the online viewings would she make a trip to see them in person.
.
Good news kept coming. Two days later, Wang Erya also reported that she had successfully guided Qi into her body.
Ning Xuan then traded earth-element and metal-element cultivation techniques to Wang Erya for practice. These techniques were ones she had later obtained from Yun Xi. They were all basic techniques that were commonplace in the Yunlan Continent, and were not expensive at all for Yun Xi. After learning that Ning Xuan could also cultivate them, she went to the market and browsed through all the basic cultivation techniques. Each one only cost 5-10 spirit stones, while offensive spells were more expensive.
Just then, Ning Xuan mentioned other cultivation techniques based on spiritual root attributes to her, and Yun Xi bought quite a few of them as well.
In fact, for ordinary cultivators on the Yunlan Continent, especially independent cultivators, without sects or resources, it would take half a year or even a year to save up 10 spirit stones to buy a cultivation technique. So this "not expensive" is actually aimed at cultivators like Yunxi who don't have to worry about spirit stones.
Because one must be at least 6 years old to use the spirit-testing stone, neither of Wang Erya's two daughters knows whether they have spiritual roots.
It's not too late to test them when they turn 6.
It is said that among mortals, those with spiritual roots are extremely rare. As it turns out, these few who have systems all happen to have spiritual roots, and they are all single or double spiritual roots with good aptitude. This is something that is very enviable in the mortal world of Yunlan Continent.
Especially Lin Yuhan's single metal spiritual root, this aptitude would allow her to become an inner disciple of a relatively large sect in the Yunlan Continent.
The concentration of spiritual energy in the ancient world was higher than that in the modern world. Wang Erya went to the manor to cultivate. She had dual spiritual roots and spent about the same amount of time as Lin Yuhan in guiding spiritual energy into her body, which was also due to the higher concentration of spiritual energy.
However, it's still much worse than the Yunlan Continent. The Yunlan Continent can't even compare to the ancient era, so you can imagine how much more difficult it will be for them to cultivate.
Ning Xuan traded cultivation techniques to both of them, exchanged cultivation experiences, and then got busy with the egg-sharing business with Xu Jiajia.
Hongxing Brigade has 8 production teams, each with 15-25 households, for a total population of nearly 2,000.
Including the educated youth, they will be distributing about 2,000 eggs this time. Including the need to verify the number of people and their names, the workload of distributing eggs this time is quite large.
Ning Xuan then brought Lu Xun and Zhou Zhipeng along to help distribute eggs. After all, they were now employees of the chicken farm, but as the farm expanded, they were mostly delivering eggs to the commune and rarely worked.
Because they were worried that Ning Xuan and the others might not recognize all the people in the brigade, and that it would be troublesome if someone tried to fool them, Zhou Jianguo had Zhou Dahu help verify the personnel in addition to the few of them who were responsible for data collection and counting eggs. This was to ensure that the names and quantities reported by the people who came matched the list.
To avoid disrupting work hours, the distribution will begin after work hours, and each household can simply send a representative to queue up.
But everyone in the group loved to watch the excitement, and everyone except those who had to go back to cook gathered around the entrance of the chicken farm to watch.
"Everyone, please be quiet and line up properly, one by one. When it's your turn, please state your name, your production team, and the number of people in your family."
"First to fourth production teams, I'll line up; fifth to eighth teams, Xu Zhiqing's side. Now, let's start distributing eggs!" Ning Xuan controlled the scene with her loudest voice. She and Xu Jiajia sat behind the table and began to wait for the team members to be registered.
"Zhou Aiguo, the first production team, with 11 family members." The first person they met was Zhou Aiguo when they first arrived in the countryside and got off the train.
Ning Xuan quickly flipped to the roster of the first production team, found Zhou Aiguo's name, and indeed it said 11 after it. Lu Xun had also just counted 11 eggs and put them on the table. Ning Xuan quickly scanned it and knew that the number was correct.
“Uncle Patriot, here are 11 eggs for you to keep. Then sign and put your fingerprint here.”
The brigade has held literacy classes, and most members can write their own names. Those who really can't write their names just put their fingerprints on the paper; this process cannot be skipped.
Zhou Aiguo, a grown man, carefully put the eggs into the vegetable basket he had brought, where his wife had already laid out straw.
Because his wife and the others were busy making dinner, and they were worried that the child might break the eggs again when he came to pick them up, they arranged for him to come and pick them up.
There are many team members like Zhou Aiguo. Most of them are female family members who are busy preparing dinner. Those who are worried about picking up their children have their men come instead.
"Zhou Shizhu, Second Production Team, 9 people," followed by Uncle Shizhu, the carpenter.
Ning Xuan quickly flipped to the list of the second production team and repeated the egg-collecting steps from before.
Xu Jiajia's side was also proceeding in an orderly manner. She and Xu Jiajia were in charge of registration, Lu Xun and Zhou Zhipeng were in charge of counting eggs, and Zhou Dahu was on the side checking whether the names and household members reported by the other party were correct.
The task of verifying the population is not something that younger people can do. Only managers like Zhou Jianguo or older people like Zhou Dahu can know the people in the brigade like the back of their hand.
“Zhou Tiezhu, First Production Team, 12 people.”
"Li Xiaoyun, Third Production Team, 15 people."
...
The queue was slowly shrinking, but the number of onlookers was increasing.
Ning Xuan and the others also became more and more in sync.
"Liu Aihua, fourth production team, 18 people."
"Wow!"
The crowd was suddenly stunned by this number; it was the largest family they had ever seen.
“Wait a minute, Aunt Aihua, didn’t you have 17 children? How come there’s one more?” someone questioned.
