"This tea is more fragrant, more mellow, and has a stronger floral flavor. When I drank it before, I could see the petals, but there was almost no floral fragrance."
She took a few more sips, finding the flavors increasingly delicious. Could it be that things from the cultivation world are truly different?
An Zhengzheng thought for a moment and then said, "Generally speaking, it's unlikely that flower tea has no aroma at all. You must have drunk mixed flower tea."
"It's tea made by mixing dried flower petals and dried tea leaves together, instead of freshly scenting them together, so it doesn't taste very good. Some unscrupulous merchants do this."
An Zhengzheng's words sparked a discussion among everyone. Madam Pei said, "Miss Zhengzheng knows so much."
She smiled, realizing she was just luckier in her past life.
After everyone had finished eating and drinking, An Zhengzheng asked, "How is everyone's cultivation progressing?"
"Alas, cultivation... is really impossible," a female cultivator said regretfully. "I can't afford the cultivation techniques I need, and I don't have any talismans or pills. I want to go on training missions to kill demonic beasts, but I have no magic to protect myself, and I'm afraid I'll get eaten by them..."
She sighed, "I managed to sell the things I cultivated over the years, bought some raw materials, and used them for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. In the blink of an eye, there was hardly anything left."
After all, they couldn't afford fasting pills.
"If I could get married, I'd at least have someone to rely on..."
Madam Pei also said, "I'm almost in the same boat, and I also have a daughter to raise. Just growing and processing medicinal herbs takes up a lot of time, not to mention cultivation..."
Song Juan was also conflicted: "Although I have joined a sect, my foundation is not as good as that of male cultivators, so my cultivation speed is very slow. No matter how many techniques the Siyue Sect has, I can only watch without any auxiliary pills or anything."
If only I could have a family to support me from an early age, like male cultivators, or find a job to accumulate more spirit stones, I wouldn't be in such an awkward situation.
An Zhengzheng took a sip of her flower tea and said nothing.
This is the dilemma faced by most female cultivators: they have neither family support nor can they be tolerated by patriarchal society.
Given this trend, it is impossible for them to ascend to godhood.
Marriage becomes one of the ways out. Female cultivators who have not encountered love will also think about getting married when they reach a certain point, out of fear of being attacked by public opinion and their obsession with needing a "home".
An Zhengzheng gently placed the tea on the table, her gaze sweeping across their faces, noticing their disappointment and confusion.
She asked gently, "Most of you here are talisman cultivators. Would you be willing to come to the Hundred Women Pavilion to produce magazines and talisman paper? I am willing to pay spirit stones to hire you."
Upon hearing this, one of the female cultivators immediately stood up: "What...what does this mean?"
In the cultivation world, who would hire a female cultivator? They all assume that female cultivators are not capable enough; even making clothes is done by male cultivators.
An Yirou already knew about An Zhengzheng's plan, so she helped explain, "If you're willing, you can help make magazines and talismans like you did a few days ago. You don't need to run around buying raw materials for talismans, refining them, and then trying to sell them, like before."
An Zhengzheng has provided all the raw materials; all they need to do is work.
The extra time was more than enough for them to practice their skills and improve their cultivation.
An Zhengzheng can guarantee them food and drink with a surplus.
Most of the girls on Qilin Mountain were willing, but Song Juan and Su Ying hesitated, saying, "But we only have seven days of free time during our time at the sect..."
