"Holy crap! 300,000 a day!?" Yang Ming was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. "No way, buddy, what are you after? The inn only makes 100,000 a day, and the woodshed makes 300,000 a day."
“It’s different.” Lu Ziming shook his head: “The inn costs 100,000 per person, but the woodshed I rent has no limit on the number of people. I only need to pay 300,000 ghost coins per day. As long as there’s enough room, I can accommodate as many people as I want.”
Therefore, the more people sharing the apartment, the more cost-effective it becomes.
"Oh, I see. How big is your house?"
"5 square meters."
“5...5 square meters!?” Yang Ming gestured with his five fingers in shock, his face full of disbelief.
"It's not even as big as my toilet. Are you sure all of us can fit in there?"
"Living there is impossible, but if we squeeze in, we can still stand."
stand? ? ?
At this moment, everyone felt a strange sense of absurdity.
Is this Baishi Town?
This must be the center of the universe, renting a place here is so expensive!
Seeing the group looking dejected, Lu Ziming quickly comforted them, saying, "In Baishi Town, where land is incredibly valuable, finding such a cheap woodshed is already a blessing."
Once you arrive in White Stone Town, don't even think about enjoying yourself. Here, there's only endless killing of monsters. It took me three whole years of killing monsters before I could afford to live in a woodshed.
Since we're all spirit masters anyway, sleep isn't that important to us; we can just rest standing up.
And with your participation, the goal of accumulating 100 million ghost coins will soon be achieved.
Everyone: "..."
It felt like a million alpacas were stampeding through their minds, full of complaints, but they didn't know where to begin.
Soon, led by Lu Ziming, the group turned left and right, passing through dark and narrow alleys, and finally arrived at a house.
This is a small courtyard enclosed by a wall, which is very low and dilapidated, and the gate is a large, rusty iron gate.
The large iron gate was open. Upon entering, one would see three dilapidated bungalows connected together, with simple roofs and windows, but the area was still acceptable, about a hundred square meters.
In the far corner of the yard stood a low wooden hut with a thatched roof, hastily constructed, looking almost like a large doghouse.
"We're here. This is my home." Lu Ziming pointed to the wooden hut.
Looking at the house in front of them, the group was very skeptical. Could it really fit all of them? There probably wouldn't even be enough room to stand.
"You former captain, are you sure this is really a woodshed and not a doghouse?" Yang Ming asked, pointing at the woodshed with an incredulous expression.
"Doghouses aren't that expensive. Renting a doghouse only costs 100,000 ghost coins a day, while my woodshed costs at least 300,000."
"What! A doghouse costs 100,000 a day? Surely no one actually rents a doghouse?"
Everyone thought Lu Ziming was joking, but he said seriously, "Someone really does rent a doghouse because the buildings in White Stone Town can withstand the gray fog, and the doghouse is no exception."
A doghouse costs 100,000 a day, but it can accommodate two people squeezing in, which is equivalent to 50,000 per person. This is half the price of a guesthouse!
It's a pity that a dead dog was still living in the kennel, taking up a lot of space; otherwise, three people could have squeezed in.
Everyone: "......."
The image already flashed in their minds: a doghouse built of bricks in the countryside, lined with dry straw, with two people huddled inside, and a dead dog between them.
The thought of this scene is chilling.
Lu Ziming continued, "Don't think it's shameful to live in a doghouse. To save money, people will live in even a doghouse, and some will even fight over it."
Several spirit masters once fought a fierce battle over the lease of the largest doghouse in Whitestone Town.
Everyone: "......"
They had lost count of how many times they had been speechless; the lifestyle of Whitestone Town had simply shattered their worldview.
"Alright, enough talk, let's go inside." Lu Ziming pushed open the door to the woodshed and invited everyone in.
Yang Ming looked resistant: "How about we take turns resting in the woodshed? This room is so small, unless someone hangs from the ceiling, it's impossible for anyone to fit in."
He had just broken through to the fourth level, a time when his spiritual energy was at its peak.
Furthermore, he could survive in the gray fog for a long time when he was already at the third rank, and now that he is at the fourth rank and the Corpse Suppression Bead has been strengthened, he can stay in the gray fog for even longer, so he is not in a hurry at all.
It can be said that among their group, apart from Fang Xiu, Yang Ming was the one who could stay in the gray fog the longest.
Although Yang Ming was only at the early stage of the fourth rank, his domain concentrated the power within himself, so the consumption was not large. In addition, with the enhanced Corpse-Suppressing Bead, it was not a problem for him to stay in the gray fog for three days and three nights.
Lu Ziming hurriedly said, "It's getting dark soon. In Baishi Town, you must not stay outside after dark, because the town's protection will disappear after dark, and then the strange things from the outside world will flood into the town."
"What!?" Yang Ming was shocked: "Isn't this deliberately targeting people like me who can survive in the gray fog for a long time?"
This is practically forcing me to spend money! And I can't even stay here!
Lu Ziming smiled wryly: "Brother Yang, the things you can think of, the builders of White Stone Town have already thought of as well. In fact, a fifth-level Spirit Master like me can survive in the gray fog for a long time."
The Light of the Soul is highly resistant to the gray fog, but once it gets caught up in an endless battle, its spiritual energy will be continuously depleted, and it will eventually perish.
Therefore, no matter what, there's no way to save money on accommodation in Whitestone Town.
