Chapter 307: Turning the tables
Yue Mushan looked at him for a while but didn't go forward to talk to him.
He couldn't join in their fun.
I don't want to force integration.
The demon world is a place that pursues a lifelong couple, and most demon cultivators are very loyal. Yue Mushan doesn't understand why Ye Xiaoman is teasing him when she obviously already has someone she likes.
He himself was also disgusted by this kind of behavior. Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot would often result in nothing.
Thinking about it carefully, Ye Xiaoman didn't seem to have done anything excessively beyond the line towards him. She didn't directly say that she liked him, nor did she ever express her desire to pursue him. At most, she joked with him, which was more of a teasing. She didn't do anything like others who took advantage of his good looks to touch him or do some dirty things to him.
And because she wasn't vulgar, it lost that layer of ambiguity.
He had no right to blame her for being fickle.
When Yue Mushan thought of this, he felt even more unhappy for some unknown reason.
He limped away, leaving several purple marks on his white ankles.
Ye Xiaoman and the man were still chatting happily and didn't notice his departure at all.
He risked his nine lives to break the magic circle for her. Shouldn't she say "thank you"? Even if she compliments him with "you did a great job", it would be necessary courtesy.
...He doesn't care whether it's polite or not.
Yue Mushan was depressed, remembering that his father once said that if he didn't become stronger, it would be difficult for him to find a mate in the future.
He didn't take it to heart before. He was a rich and idle man with no ambition. He had no idea of getting married and didn't think there was anything wrong with being single. Now he finally understood his father's worries.
An incompetent male cannot get a mate.
Yue Mushan turned around, but Ye Xiaoman's figure was already too far away to be seen.
He punched the tree trunk and the leaves fell.
I was angry that my mood was disturbed by an irrelevant person.
He took a few deep breaths, adjusted his mood, returned to his normal walking posture, and walked away with an expressionless face.
No one cares, there's no point in pretending to be lame.
After Yue Mushan left, Shangxian raised his head and glanced in the direction he disappeared.
He asked Ye Xiaoman: "Newcomer?"
Ye Xiaoman was still immersed in the excitement of finding a bargain. With such a large villa, there were too many things to take care of after taking over. She casually asked, "What newcomer?"
The online person asked again: "A new man?"
Count them, this is the sixth one.
Ye Xiaoman realized belatedly that Yue Mushan had left. He had helped her a lot, but before she had the chance to thank him, she didn't expect that the little cat demon was really capable.
Beauty and talent are combined, a fairy product.
She clarified: "Just an acquaintance."
The online person disagreed: "Play is fun, but don't forget your mission."
"What mission?" Ye Xiaoman felt something was wrong. "Are you trying to assign me another mission?"
Shangxian yawned behind the mask and let Ye Xiaoman use the spiritual power he had just recovered. Sometimes he couldn't tell who was enslaving whom between them.
He was sleepy, and his voice was lazy too. At this moment, he looked more like a cat dozing in the sun than Yue Mushan. He squinted his eyes and said, "Pack up your stall and find me in three days."
After Ye Xiaoman killed the owner of the manor, the news that she replaced him as the new owner was conveyed to every resident through the power of rules.
The happiest people were Qi Kou and the bodyguards. Considering the importance of holding the right person, they were able to save their lives for the next year under Ye Xiaoman's protection.
The second happiest people were the residents who were deceived into the villa. They had been living a precarious life, living in fear of death at any time. Ye Xiaoman simply abolished the previous rules, and the Happy Villa became a rule-free villa, and became the conscientious B&B described in the promotional leaflets.
Users can choose to leave without paying any price. If they want to stay, they can also pay the local market price for accommodation, which is 800 spirit stones per month.
In view of the dangerous living environment outside, most residents chose to continue staying, and Ye Xiaoman earned a large amount of rent.
The saddest people were the staff, who lost all their privileges. Ye Xiaoman physically saved the evil spirits like the housekeeper and the chef who were accomplices to the evil.
As for the ghosts like the ghost brothers and ghost sisters who had never harmed anyone, they were left behind. After a final count, there were more than 30 ghosts left.
Ye Xiaoman used her old skills, and Ghost Brother and Ghost Sister were promoted to captains of the labor team. They led the ghosts to fill up the Broken Soul Bridge and the Bloody Lake, reclaiming them into spiritual fields and planting spiritual herbs.
With the money from selling the spiritual herbs, he could buy the specialty black ore from the ghost world at a low price, and then transport it to the human world during the Ghost Festival every year and sell it at a high price. Isn't that another big profit?
Qi Kou gave Ye Xiaoman some advice based on her many years of experience in escorting.
"You can run the villa as a trading post for monks in the human world."
"There are many cultivators out there who, seeking to make a fortune, venture into the ghost world every year. Ghost cultivators monopolize the vast majority of inns on the market, and each inn exists to murder cultivators. The cultivators desperately want to find a safe place to stay."
“As long as I can live in peace, I’m willing to spend a lot of money.”
"We can only advertise it. Let alone renting a room for 800 spirit stones a month, even if we rent it for 8,000 spirit stones a day, the demand will still outstrip supply."
Ye Xiaoman thought it made sense.
She thought for a moment and said, "If I don't charge you spirit stones, I'll just pay you 10% of the black ore the caravan purchased for accommodation."
Qi Kou's eyes lit up:
"You've been very thoughtful. Spiritual stones are fixed, and the price of black ore is rising every year. This way, we can stockpile the ore and sell it at a high price to make a fortune."
"Also, many monks who risk their lives to resell minerals are not well off themselves and initially lack the money for accommodation. If you settle directly with the results, you can attract more potential users."
Seeing that Qi Kou was quick to learn and was loyal and reliable, Ye Xiaoman hired her as the head manager of the villa to help with miscellaneous chores.
Qi Kou happily accepted this well-paid job. She was so proud in front of the other escorts that she declared that she was not going to buy the third-grade magic weapon anymore and that she would directly order the fifth-grade one!
Ye Xiaoman worked for three days to arrange everything at Huanxi Villa.
Reborn: I run a hotel in the ghost world.
After she finished her work, she went to find her superior.
The development of Huanxi Villa is clearly underway, and the financial prospects are bright. However, there is still a hidden danger. The surrounding areas are all dangerous places run by ghost cultivators, and they may come to grab the territory. Once the villa makes money, it will most likely attract the covetousness of others.
In order to maintain her territory, she had no choice but to follow and make the rules.
"There are only two rules."
"The first rule is that anyone who comes to cause trouble must die."
Ye Xiaoman had a bunch of keys hanging around her waist and was patrolling along the edge of the villa with her superior.
In the afternoon, the ghosts got rid of the bad habit of oppressing people and understood the true meaning of getting rich through hard work. They drove cattle to plow the fields and carried water to irrigate the land, and were busy in full swing.
The magical herbs sprouted pleasant green shoots in the fertile soil.
