How big is Shang Lin's small bedroom? As soon as Qiu Niang and Xing Tian came out, they saw She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi, as well as the pile of money on the table. Xing Tian hurriedly floated over and exclaimed, "My God, my God, this is real money!"
Although Xing Tian is a second-generation rich kid, he was born in the digital age and has never seen so much cash before; instead, he sees strings of numbers in various mobile phone accounts.
Qiu Niang, on the other hand, remained relatively calm. "What instructions does the sect leader have for us?"
Shang Lin immediately smiled and said, "Our Yuntai Sect's Finance Department is officially established today. You and Xing Tian will be in charge of the accounts. You two keep this 500,000 for now, and I'll use the rest to buy things for everyone."
Xing Tian hurriedly said, "Sect Master, buy me a few high-end suits. I might need them to do business in the future, so I can't be without them..."
Before Xing Tian could finish speaking, Shang Lin ruthlessly interrupted him, "Do you think there are any high-end suits in the county?"
Xing Tian paused, then said, "Okay."
It would be strange if such a small place had any. There are only two main streets, one horizontal and one vertical. How many stores are there in total? And that's after deducting the proportion of stores owned by relevant departments.
For example, banks, electricity companies, water companies, and so on.
Shang Lin continued, "Xiao She and I will handle the arrangements. You can take the money back."
Qiu Niang went to distribute the money, and Xing Tian said again, "Sect Leader, we must buy a mobile phone first. We need to get a SIM card and a data plan so we can shop online. Oh, and we also need to get at least two bank cards from different banks."
“Okay.” Shang Lin then said to Qiu Niang, “Ask everyone in the tower what they want. Write down a list. If it can be bought in the county, I’ll go buy it tomorrow. If it’s not available in the county, we’ll buy it online after I get my phone and bank card.”
"Yes." Actually, what Qiu Niang really wanted to say was, "Even though we have money now, we should still be more frugal."
But in the end, she held back. Although the sect leader was young, she was a person with her own ideas and didn't need her to remind her. Besides, this was just the beginning. She believed that their Yuntai Sect would get better and better in the future and could really be just as the sect leader said.
After Qiu Niang and Xing Tian disappeared, Shang Lin asked She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi, "What do you need?"
Hu Tangdi was unusually serious tonight, which made Shang Lin a little uncomfortable. She wondered if she had spoken too harshly before they left, or if Hu Tangdi was just putting on an act in front of her.
She Jinxing spoke first, "Sect Leader, could you give me the medicinal herbs we had left over from this trip?"
“Sure.” Shang Lin added, “You can also use the medicinal herbs in the Dragon Spirit Tower. As long as you don’t waste them, you don’t need to ask me.”
Hu Tangdi said, "Sect Master, I want a cell phone. It's so inconvenient not having one outside. When we were selling goods this time, the buyers were shocked to hear that we didn't have cell phones. They probably thought we were... Luckily, we dressed up as villagers and had a perfect explanation ready, otherwise it would have been really hard to explain."
She Jinxing immediately disagreed, saying, "We don't have ID cards, and even if we have a mobile phone, we can't get it verified with our real names. What's the use?"
Shang Lin smiled and said, "It's alright. I'll get a few more phone numbers so you can make calls too. As for ID cards, we'll figure out a solution when we go to a big city."
There are many supernatural beings in the human world, and there should be departments that handle paranormal events. However, it's unlikely that such departments exist in a small county like theirs, and getting their help would probably require infiltrating their ranks or offering them significant assistance. But with these hundreds of thousands of yuan as a safety net, Shang Lin wasn't in a hurry to do anything.
She Jinxing hurriedly said, "Sect Leader, please don't get several phone numbers all at once. You're still a minor, so it's hard to explain. A phone can hold two SIM cards, so two are enough for now. We can contact each other without a phone; the phone can be used for other purposes."
"...Alright then." The fact that he was a minor was a major problem, especially since the original owner was also thin and small due to his physical condition, which was really worrying.
However, his emotions vanished in an instant, and Shang Lin immediately became serious, saying, "I think someone has put me into a puppet state. Go and find them..."
"What?!" Hu Tangdi and She Jinxing exclaimed in unison, "Who has such audacity? Do they think they're dead?"
"Calm down, calm down." Shang Lin picked up a pen and paper and began to draw the warehouse he saw in his dream. As he drew, he said, "The human world is so big, there must be some extraordinary people. It's just that we haven't met them in this small place. If you find this place, don't make any rash moves. I will handle it personally."
She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi looked at each other in bewilderment. Their sect leader was too good-natured. Even though someone wanted to harm him, he still told them not to act rashly.
If She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi knew that Shang Lin had asked them to find someone just through a dream, I wonder if they would still think the same way.
Of course, Shang Lin wouldn't say it.
Shang Lin finished drawing quickly, looked up at the two of them, and said, "You can rest for a while before you go. Have Qiu Niang write down what you want to buy, and I'll go buy it tomorrow."
She Jinxing looked at Shang Lin with some concern, "Is the Sect Master feeling unwell?"
Shang Lin answered honestly, "Not yet." If it weren't for his dream last night, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to find someone.
Hu Tangdi took the drawing Shang Lin had finished and said with a serious expression, "I'll go find it right now." Then he disappeared.
She Jinxing hurriedly said, "Wait for me!" and then disappeared.
Shang Lin was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Hu Tangdi to be so impatient. He hadn’t even said how to do his own thing in the county tomorrow without Old Man Chai’s knowledge!
It can't always be like the first time when Manager Duan came to our house to collect mountain produce, and Old Man Chai happened to be on his way to the county to ask him about his studies, such a coincidence, right?
Oh, and "Cousin" is back. We can make a little money from Manager Duan. That's right, the money from selling mountain products is really a drop in the ocean compared to the money from selling ginseng.
Although selling mountain products earns less, they are easy to sell. Ginseng, on the other hand, is something that can only be sold at a high price by chance, and everything is valued for its rarity.
Shang Lin picked up a pen and paper again and wrote down what he wanted to buy. The cell phone was naturally the first priority, as were the talisman-drawing supplies... After finishing writing, he put the money into his backpack and rested happily.
Because they were going to the county, Shang Lin got up early. She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi had not returned yet. It would take a lot of time to find the location using only a map. The only saving grace was that the county was not big. If it were a big city, it would take a long time to find it.
At this moment, Shang Lin suddenly felt that he was being a bit unfair. Although those two were his servants, he shouldn't have treated them like this. After all, they had only earned him more than 700,000, and they hadn't even rested for a while before going to find the place he had dreamed about.
Huang Ying didn't come back either, so it seems Manager Duan hasn't left their county yet.
