Chapter 113 Two Hundred Years After the End of the World: Modern Immortal Cultivation 18
As night fell, Zhang Xiaojia excitedly gave Xiaoai an order: "Xiaoai, apply for network connection with other cities immediately!" As Xiaoai operated, the mortal networks agreed to her application and agreed to connect to the network, which meant that Zhang Xiaojia had successfully achieved full network access in nine cities.
It is still not open now. Anyone who wants to connect to the Jiucheng Network must pay spirit stones and money.
"Xiao Ai will show the local monks a brainwave later, telling them that the city has opened a nine-city network and will ask them to connect to the network for 30 spirit stones a year."
Zhang Xiaojia struck while the iron was hot and continued to give orders: "Xiao Ai, post a recruitment notice and recruit mortals to join our team!" She emphasized that there is no age limit, and the educational requirements cover low, medium, and high levels. She also promised that as long as you perform well, you will be rewarded with a gene needle, thereby extending your lifespan to 200 years.
Then, Zhang Xiaojia instructed Xiaoai to check the resumes of the applicants and conduct a detailed investigation starting from their eight generations of ancestors to ensure that candidates with excellent character are selected.
The robot came back. Zhang Xiaojia saw 5,000 people, 4,800 of whom paid the "air conditioning fee", only 200 did not pay, 150 were hunting, and the other 50 refused to pay. Zhang Xiaojia asked Xiaoai to shut down their Sky Network according to the house coordinates. She would install it when the money was paid. She is not afraid of you.
Zhang Xiaojia is in urgent need of help. If Xiaoai is not there, she will die...
When the alarm clock rang, no matter how urgent it was, Zhang Xiaojia put down the work at hand. She was a cultivator, and the most important thing for her was cultivation. She had to ensure 10 hours of cultivation time every day.
After Zhang Xiaojia finished her training, Xiao Ai gave her the information of ten recruiters. Zhang Xiaojia saw that one of them had been the temporary city lord of Qingyun City's Mortal Street. He was only 50 years old now and was diagnosed with brain cancer. He only had 3 years left to live. They were in Shenmu City and it only took 6 hours to get here.
Zhang Xiaojia asked Xiaoai to contact him and asked him to bring his partner to Frost City immediately.
Xiao Ai reported, "Master, Lu Xiao has already boarded the airship and will arrive at 3:00 PM. I have agreed with him to come to your temporary office for an interview this afternoon."
Zhang Yangchen arrived at Zhang Xiaojia's residence and saw Zhang Xiaojia. "Jiajia, have you covered all the land belonging to Frost City? Even the fields?"
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and said, "Yes, isn't this the right temperature for planting? Then tell me, I can control the temperature."
Zhang Yangchen continued to ask, "Can temperature, rain, wind and snow be controlled? Can both mortals and cultivators use it?"
Zhang Xiaojia answered affirmatively, "Of course."
Zhang Yangchen burst into laughter and said, "Okay, I understand."
The second uncle just asked a few questions and left. Zhang Xiaojia didn't think much about it or ask more questions. Later she found out that she had lost money. Her second uncle actually used this sky network to control the temperature and rented out all the spiritual fields at a high price. This money did not belong to her. They collected more spiritual stones than she collected from the "air conditioning fee"
The means of transportation in the world of immortal cultivation are spirit beasts (which also need to be fed) and spirit tools (which require spirit stones), both of which can be put into storage bags. In Lingfeng City, you cannot fly in the air, but you can run on the ground. Except for a few streets where stalls are not allowed, the rest are densely packed with stalls.
Zhang Xiaojia plans to open up transportation tools, both underground and on the ground, and in the air, to connect the mortal world and the cultivators. All of these can be activated by light energy converters, saving spirit stones.
Frost City aims to be the first city to integrate technology and cultivation.
Zhang Xiaojia watched Yang Yangyang giving a serious lecture to Zhang Tianyi, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. She knew how to use these two people to achieve the best of both worlds.
"Yangyang, how about this? You go to my shop to give Xiaoyi lessons, and help me collect the fees at the same time."
Yang Yangyang raised his head lazily, looked at Zhang Xiaojia and asked, "What are you charging?"
Zhang Xiaojia quickly explained, "The cost of the Nine Cities internet connection."
When Zhang Tianyi heard the news, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she said happily, "Sister, can I contact my father and brother from now on?"
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and replied gently, "Well, it takes 20 spirit stones a year."
Yang Yangyang thought for a moment and felt that it didn't matter where he taught, so he nodded readily.
Fortunately, Xiao Ai is almost omnipotent when it comes to the Internet.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xiaojia came to the temporary office and saw Lu Xiao as soon as he entered the door.
Lu Xiao politely extended his hand and greeted Zhang Xiaojia with a smile: "Hello, Monk Zhang!"
Zhang Xiaojia also extended his hand to shake his in a friendly manner and responded, "Hello, Mr. Lu, please take a seat."
Zhang Xiaojia looked at his partner, who turned out to be a cultivator. He was slightly surprised.
Zhang Xiaojia said straight to the point, "I've read your resume. You worked as a temporary manager in the mortal world of Qingyun City for three years. I'd like to know why you resigned."
Lu Xiao smiled and said, "In the city, either all traffic should be unified to prevent cultivators from riding spirit beasts to the mortal side, but it seems that this is not feasible. The cultivators do not agree and the city lord on the cultivator side is unhappy. Similarly, the cultivators' talismans sometimes play pranks on humans. The most important thing is that many cultivators look down on mortals."
Zhang Xiaojia thought for a moment and continued, "What do you think of the attitude of mortals and monks living together?"
Lu Xiao thought for a moment and said, "It depends on the attitude of the city lord of this city's cultivation world. City Lord Zhang, I heard from the mortal manager of Bishui City that the city lord's goal is to ensure peaceful coexistence between mortals and cultivators."
Zhang Xiaojia is quite satisfied and says "Xiao Ai Cast Screen"
A virtual screen appeared, showing a city plan. Zhang Xiaojia pointed to the western section and said, "I only have access to this piece of land. It's approximately one million square kilometers, divided into three districts. District A covers 500,000 square kilometers. I want to build a large-scale science and technology school for cultivating immortals, offering everything from elementary school to doctoral degrees, from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment. District B is a commercial area, with cultivators on the left and mortals on the right. District C is a residential area."
Zhang Xiaojia continued, "Transportation in this city is divided into public and private transportation. As for private transportation, as long as it's allowed in designated areas on the ground, whether it's by car or by beast, I don't care. But underground and air transportation must be under my control."
Lu Xiao asked seriously, "Is it the traffic in the West District, or the traffic in the entire city?"
Zhang Xiaojia smiled and said, "The traffic in the whole city."
Lu Xiao asked doubtfully, "Do you have this authority?"
Zhang Xiaojia smiled particularly ostentatiously and said, "Yes, my father is the mayor of this city."
Lu Xiao asked, "How do you want to invest? How many spirit stones or silver do you have?"
Zhang Xiaojia said frankly, "I don't have any money. Add it up now. At most I have 200,000 spirit stones and a batch of robots. But I have technology. Skynet is exclusive to me. Now we are connected to the Jiuzhou network. I also have the most important gene potion. Mortals can live to 200 years old after taking the gene potion. After 200 years old, I will prescribe you to drink the enhancement potion, which will increase your lifespan to 250 years. Finally, drink the potential potion, which will increase your lifespan by at least 30 years. I also have beauty pills that mortals can take, which can keep your appearance around 25 years old."
When Lu Xiao heard about the 200,000 spirit stones, he wanted to leave immediately. However, when he heard about the gene therapy, his eyes widened and he asked, "I have brain cancer. Can I use the gene therapy?"
Zhang Xiaojia smiled and said, "Of course. After the gene injection, all the cancer cells disappeared. Do you want to sign a contract with me? You are 50 years old this year. When you are 200, you have 150 years to live. You must work for me for 80 years, and you will still receive salary for 80 years. If you live another 80 years, you can sign a contract with me and work for me for another 40 years."
Lu Xiao stood up excitedly and said, "I want to sign a contract with you."
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and said, "Xiao Ai, print out a contract for me."
Lu Xiao's partner, Mr. Xiao, said, "Master Zhang, we don't need the contract anymore. Let's swear an oath to the Heaven!"
Zhang Xiaojia said directly, "No problem."
After Zhang Xiaojia and Lu Xiao swore an oath to the Heaven, they saw a thunder sound in the sky, followed by a sky full of golden light that entered Zhang Xiaojia and Lu Xiao's bodies.
Damn, this is a blessing from God~
After giving Lu Xiao the gene injection, Zhang Xiaojia gave him a beauty pill and said, "The beauty pill will keep you looking like you're about 25 years old for a year. This pill is your salary for this month."
Lu Xiao was seen rolling on the ground. Mr. Xiao was anxious to help him up, but Zhang Xiaojia tried to stop him, saying, "Mr. Xiao, this is going to require him to undergo genetic recombination. There's no other way. Just leave him alone."
Mr. Xiao looked at Lu Xiao worriedly, and when he heard Zhang Xiaojia's words, his mouth twitched as he said, "I don't know, Master Zhang, how long this situation will last?"
Zhang Xiaojia looked at it and said, "Ten minutes at most, five minutes at the fastest."
In less than eight minutes, Lu Xiao was soaked like a drowned rat. He looked at the salary in his hand - a beauty pill, and swallowed it in one gulp.
After five minutes, the skin slowly regained its elasticity and returned to its best condition.
Lu Xiao asked, "Master Zhang, what are your views on monks and mortals?"
Zhang Xiaojia said calmly, "We are all human beings."
Lu Xiao immediately got to work and said, "Can I ask if monks can get this gene injection?"
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and said, "Okay, but if you fight, you can no longer walk the immortal path."
Lu Xiao smiled and said, "There are many cultivators with poor aptitude for four or five spiritual roots. I will hand over the development plan to you in a week."
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and said, "Tomorrow, there are architects coming, a mortal and a monk. Please excuse me, Mr. Lu."
