When they returned that day, the posts on the Tianlan Sect's Jade Spirit Plaza exploded.
Everyone was enthusiastically discussing whether this newly launched mortal realm gift pack was actually useful.
"See? The seller advertised that it contains rouge, soap, and toothpaste salt that can be used in the mortal realm?"
"We have these things in the cultivation world too, why buy them from them? You can find them at the Immortal Treasure Pavilion!"
"Xianzhen Pavilion is more expensive, while our Youbao Pavilion saves money."
"Ignore him. The one above was posted by someone from Youbaoge. Right now, I only want to pay attention to the messages posted by Miaomiao. Their gift package has a lot of things. Buying it all at once will save me from running around to different stores to buy things. This will free up my time to do more other things. I think it's great!"
Off-screen, Zhu Yi, Xue Shan, and Wei Weiwei were gathered together, the three of them silently sending the same text and simple images in their newly created group chats.
"Good news, good news! Greetings, fellow Daoists of the Tianlan Sect! Welcome to follow this humble cat! I'm new here, so I'm launching a comprehensive guide to mortal life. To welcome you, pre-order now for a huge promotion! Prices have dropped to the lowest possible level! And the quality is excellent!"
After typing out a long message, a faint blush appeared on Weiwei's cheeks. She hesitated, "Junior Sister, we only have one sample package right now, not that many goods. Can we prepare the large gift packages that everyone wants within seven days?"
"Don't worry, we've already contacted Su Nuo. We'll clear out 500 fire starters at a low price, exchange them for a total of 10,000 taels of gold, silver and copper coins, and 1,000 sets of commoner's clothing. Last time we cleared out a lot of their inventory, and he got a little carried away. There aren't many high-quality, large-volume customers like us anymore!"
“They would have taken a long time to sell these clothes one by one. It’s a good deal for them to dump them on us all at once. Besides, coarse cloth clothes for ordinary people are not their main products. They’ve been sitting in the warehouse for fifty or sixty years!”
Weiwei was captivated and exclaimed, "Junior Sister, you're so clever!"
In fact, although Zhu Yi spoke with such confidence, there were still some difficulties in putting this matter into practice.
For example, the featured items in the gift package are a wind-up alarm clock, a compass, and a folding umbrella, all of which are difficult to manufacture.
After examining the three small items, Lin Hengjin remained silent for a long time. "Junior Sister, the alarm clock and compass are easy to make; I can refine more after I've practiced a few more times. But this folding umbrella's canopy is neither hemp nor silk, and it's waterproof and lightweight, which is really hard to find..."
What else can be said? The cultivation world doesn't have polyester fiber, and they don't know how to refine petroleum!
Zhu Yi asked, "What if we make it into a regular umbrella? One that doesn't need to be folded? Our sect disciples mostly use magic, so we don't use purely physical rain protection tools much. But these things are very useful to them when they go to the mortal realm."
Lin Hengjin choked: "The Youpin Pavilion also has ordinary umbrellas, so there's no need to refine them separately."
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured down on Zhu Yi, catching her completely off guard.
Zhu Yi blushed slightly, looking at the thick stack of planning papers in her hand, feeling a little embarrassed: it wasn't good to always use something avant-garde to attract other people's attention.
It's better for people in this world to follow the way of life in this world. The cultivation world is eco-friendly and doesn't favor the development and use of plastic products. So why should she be so unconventional and eccentric?
"Hmm, could Senior Brother Lin make five hundred small alarm clocks and five hundred compasses within five days? We can directly equip them with mid-grade oil-paper umbrellas from the Treasure Pavilion."
Lin Hengjin's clear eyes revealed his amazement at the ingenious design of the upper-wound alarm clock. He nodded seriously, "It shouldn't be a problem for me to ask Fellow Daoist Wenji to help me make it."
With Lin Hengjin's assurance, Zhu Yi felt much more at ease.
Having already gotten a bargain, Zhu Yi took advantage of the situation and said, "We don't have time to make ox horn toothbrushes, so let's make them from bamboo. We need a thousand of these."
Lin Hengjin: "..."
The three sisters huddled together, staring at the messages inside the jade spirit communication device. While explaining the uses of the mortal realm gift pack to the people in the square, they answered all sorts of bizarre questions based on Lin Hengjin's experience living in the mortal realm.
The native cultivators, especially the Golden Core stage disciples who had never been to the mortal realm, were clearly very excited.
Zhu Yi looked at these kindergarten-level questions with a headache, speechless.
"When we get to the mortal realm, will we have to learn to use mortal chamber pots?"
"Huh? Is it that disgusting? I've heard that many bandits in the mortal realm abduct women to be their wives. I've never heard of any difference between mortals' chamber pots and ours!"
Zhu Yi wanted to say that it was just something from a storybook to fool you, there aren't that many robberies, and don't be afraid if you encounter one. Before the message was even sent out, she saw a bunch of complaints below.
"Whether it's a chamber pot or not doesn't matter. But, everyone, do you know how to do laundry? When we get to the mortal realm, it's best to conceal our strength and use less spiritual power. Mortals use soap to bathe, which is inconvenient and annoying without any cleaning techniques!"
"How can we do such mundane chores as washing clothes ourselves? We have a sect mission to eliminate evil and protect the righteous path!"
"Our sect leader said that we should keep a low profile during this trip and not use magic too often. He said that we should experience the simple life of mortals."
"They're so simple-minded! They're just too simple-minded to want to go! They don't know how to live in the mortal realm. Does anyone know what the mortal realm is like?"
