Chapter 349 Spending Money to Avoid Disaster

Even if only a small group of people make flying cars, the patent fees paid will be enough for Lu Yang to make a fortune.

In the past, Lu Yang always thought that the patent was still under review and the flying car had not yet been mass-produced, so he put the issue of patent fees behind him.

But there was a flying car flying overhead, so we couldn't say that the patent hadn't been approved yet.

"Could it be that the Fifth Elder is kind-hearted but has a wicked heart and embezzled my patent fees?"

This idea flashed through my mind and was quickly rejected.

The fifth elder is not so greedy for such a small profit.

"Forget it, I'll just ask the Fifth Elder when I see him." Lu Yang stopped thinking about this question.

The old horse pulled the cart and took Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to the foot of the mountain, where there was a newly built inn.

Every Qingzhou ceremony will be held for seven days. During these seven days, the cultivators cannot sleep in the open air, which is inappropriate.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou arrived early and there were still empty rooms.

"Come and have the two best rooms!"

"Okay, there are two Tianzi rooms. Do you need to book a room for your horse?"

Meng Jingzhou was surprised, thinking, could it be that the other party saw that his old Ma was unfathomable and wanted to treat him like a human being?

The innkeeper smiled and explained, "Sir, it's like this. Our inn offers free spirit beast care services, but the space is limited. We will let the spirit beasts live in the backyard. During the Qingzhou Festival, powerful people often bring high-level spirit beasts. If those high-level spirit beasts are locked in the backyard, other spirit beasts will be affected to some extent. If you don't mind your spirit beast being affected, you can let us take care of it for free."

Meng Jingzhou thought about it. Although he didn't know Lao Ma's strength, since he was sent by the family to be a protector, his realm should be quite high. It would be good enough if he didn't bully others.

But considering that the old horse has a habit of seducing young mares, it is better to give it a separate room.

"Then let's get a room for Lao Ma as well."

"Okay, three top-grade rooms!"

"Old Ma, tell me the truth, what realm are you in? I promise to pretend that I don't know." Meng Jingzhou asked quietly.

Old Ma glanced at Meng Jingzhou and snorted, not believing Meng Jingzhou's nonsense.

After Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou went upstairs, another group of people stayed in the hotel, but they were not as wealthy as Meng Jingzhou.

"Shopkeeper, please give me three herringbone sized rooms."

"Excuse me, sir, we don't have a square-shaped room here?"

The other party was stunned: "Has the human-shaped size been sold out?"

He calculated the money and it was barely enough: "Then let's get two first-class rooms."

We can squeeze in two rooms.

"I'm sorry, sir, we only have the No. 1 room here."

"What?"

They are only in the Qi training stage, how can they afford to live in such a high-end room.

"Brother, let's go stay at another inn."

The innkeeper smiled and said, "Excuse me, other inns only have the top-grade rooms."

Their faces turned dark. Are they going to sleep on the streets on the first day of the event?

The store owner was not surprised by this. "It's not what you think, sir. Every year when the grand event opens, there will be fights over the Tianzi rooms. So the Qingzhou government notified us to upgrade all the rooms to Tianzi rooms. The price remains the same as the Renzi rooms, and the extra money will be subsidized by the government."

Rather than worrying about the chaos and disruption to order caused by fights between cultivators, the Qingzhou government would rather offer more spirit stones and nip the risk in the bud.

…

Meng Jingzhou didn't know that the No. 1 room he lived in was very cheap. He had never had any idea about such small amounts of money.

"Lu Yang, come out and take a walk after you've packed up. I heard that there is a street on the mountain that sells all kinds of antiques and magic weapons."

"Okay."

Lu Yang had nothing to pack. He was exhausted from the long journey, so he took off his clothes. Since he didn't know the cleansing spell, he could only use the formation in the room to wash his body. Then he changed into a set of fresh and neat clothes and went out.

The old horse had nothing to pack. He was tired from the journey, so he put down the saddle. Since he knew the cleansing spell, he could wash his body without using the formation in the room. Then he released his spiritual sense to see if there was any filly coming in.

"Foundation Building Pill, a foundation building pill with pill patterns, guaranteed to help build the foundation. If the foundation building fails, a full refund will be given!"

"Monster fur, the fur of a monster that has perfected its Qi training, the best material for refining magic weapons!"

"Demon beast barbecue, the barbecue of the demon beast that has perfected its Qi training, just imported from next door!"

"'Gu Yuan Gong', 'Liu Yun Sword Technique', 'Qing Yin Secret Codex'... all kinds of techniques and spells, everything is included!"

"The most comprehensive star atlas, drawn by me after 20 years of painstaking effort while observing the night sky. It is a must-have atlas for practicing star-related exercises!"

"Phoenix Blood Stone, the aphrodisiac Phoenix Blood Stone, Thai Pattern Stone, can improve the quality of swords, Gold Absorbing Stone, can absorb gold!"

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

The streets were bustling with shouts and noise.

As soon as he entered the market town, Lu Yang felt a sense of oppression. It was not his realm that was suppressed, but his spiritual consciousness.

After all, if you can scan the contents of a technique with your spiritual sense, what else can the vendors sell? "Even the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique is available?" Lu Yang was surprised. The Flowing Cloud Sword Technique was created by True Lord Flowing Cloud 2,000 years ago. It is extremely rare and not circulated on the market.

Meng Jingzhou is more knowledgeable than Lu Yang in this regard: "Don't believe the skills here. The swordsmanship written by Master Liuyun can be called "Liuyun Swordsmanship". You can also call it "Liuyun Swordsmanship" if you write any swordsmanship. The buyer has never seen the real "Liuyun Swordsmanship". Even if they find problems after buying it, the buyer can't say that you bought a fake."

"After all, new techniques are created every day, so it's normal for techniques to have the same name."

Lu Yang suddenly realized that he didn't expect there were so many twists and turns here.

"Do you have a star map here?" Lu Yang noticed what the vendor said.

The technique he practices has nothing to do with the stars, but he can buy a copy of Guess Which Stars Are the Eldest Sister's Golden Elixir.

"Sir, you have good eyesight. This star map was created by me using a telescope. The technique I practice is also related to my eyesight. In order to draw this star map, I worked hard and persevered, and finally completed it!"

"Can I see it?"

When the vendor heard this, his face was full of alertness: "No, I can't see through your realm. Even if you can't use your spiritual sense here, maybe you have opened up your spiritual space and can remember the contents of the star map at a glance. I won't buy it."

Lu Yang laughed in silence. He naturally didn't have such an idea.

"How many spirit stones? I'll buy it."

"There is only one copy of the atlas in the world, and it costs two thousand spirit stones, no bargaining."

Two thousand spirit stones were not expensive for Lu Yang. Just as he was about to pay, he heard a surprised voice from behind.

"Brother, look, there is a star map here!"

"What?"

The senior brother was overjoyed, because he had a true senior sister who was practicing a technique related to the stars and needed a star map.

In order to please Senior Sister, a star map is a must.

Seeing that Lu Yang had a kind face, he thought he should be easy to talk to, and he muttered to himself: "Senior brother, the star map is a cultivation tool for a senior sister of mine who I love. Can you give it to me?"

Senior brother, the star map is a cultivation item for a senior sister of mine who I admire. Could you please give it to me?

He repeated it twice and felt that there was no problem with the lines and tone. He suppressed his nervousness, clasped his fists and said to Lu Yang:

"Senior sister, the Star Atlas is something that one of my beloved senior brothers uses for cultivation. Can you give it to me?"

Lu Yang turned his head, confirmed his own gender and the other person's gender, and silently took two steps back.
