Early in the morning after the announcement was updated, blacksmiths kept going to check on the batch of breeding seedlings, making the spirit farmers roll their eyes incessantly.
"What are you looking at?"
"The seedlings won't appear until the afternoon. No matter how fast the cultivation is, it will take at least twenty-four hours, right."
"Stop crowding around our cultivation room like thieves. By afternoon, we promise you can have your precious spiritual roots growing lush and green on your heads."
But these blacksmiths expressed that they couldn't contain their excitement.
It's like a husband anxiously waiting outside the delivery room while his unfaithful wife is giving birth to their second child, pacing back and forth, both thrilled and worried his head might not be green enough.
...
In the medical hall.
Immortal Aunt and the Medical Fairy were jointly conducting research on the River Demon.
The Medical Fairy said, "My Embers baby has gone missing again, and hasn't sent me a signal recently. Has something big happened?"
"The guy is very busy, busy escaping." Immortal Aunt shook her head, "It's only been two days. Closing up for weapon repairs takes more than two days."
"But I really hope the [letter system] would be opened." The Medical Fairy said, "After all, the Sword Fairy is the only window through which we blacksmiths can touch high-end circles."
Immortal Aunt ignored the Medical Fairy's chatter, cutting through muscle textures one slice at a time, each cut releasing divine sense, making her feel like she was using a microscope, in a wondrous state.
The two have recently been conducting a research project, collaborating on surgery, combining their divine techniques.
Just then, a group of Hairpin Ladies suddenly appeared outside the door.
The leading Hairpin Lady was Money Lolita, beautiful in appearance, somewhat nervously pinching her sleeves, said, "Immortal Aunt, can you try engraving this hairpin?"
"No problem, I can give it a try."
Immortal Aunt took the hairpin, looked at the plan handed over by the other party, and began to engrave with the engraving pen.
As the magic coins in her hand gradually lost their luster, patterns were also drawn on the adornment.
"Succeeded on the first try?" that Hairpin Lady exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, I'm a surgeon, my hands don't shake, plus there's the support of divine techniques."
Immortal Aunt said, "Besides, if I guess correctly, your engraving blueprint is the most basic, right?"
"Yes, it's the most basic."
Several Hairpin Ladies exchanged excited glances.
Unexpectedly, this Soul Separation Flower actually solved the problem they had been facing for months.
You have to know, the threshold for the Hairpin Ladies' adornment magical artifacts is extremely high, ten times more difficult in engraving finesse than that of large weapons.
As a result, they have not successfully entered the field until now.
"We Hairpin Ladies want to buy the Soul Separation Flower."
"Our Hairpin Lady Tower is going to rise."
They exchanged excited glances.
The manor is about to produce adornment magical artifacts.
...
At noon, Ning Zheng went up the mountain.
Jiucai Rong excitedly shared the good news with Ning Zheng about the spirit farmers cultivating new spiritual roots.
Ning Zheng just nodded, as this spiritual root was one he had stealthily climbed the mountain at night and subtly altered the probabilities for its growth.
He also went up the mountain to take a look at this Soul Separation Flower.
The birth of this spiritual root was indeed a cause for universal celebration; as soon as he entered the manor, he saw a group of people beaming with smiles, working with vigor.
The joy of drawing a top-grade card is just that simple!
"You go about your business, I'll just look around." Ning Zheng, infected by this joy, instructed.
"This afternoon we're starting a new spiritual root Three Flowers opening ceremony, we welcome the old steward to come and watch."
Jiucai Rong, not acting modestly, went straight to the spirit farmer area.
Soon, the Mudworker brought out ten spiritual roots and said to Jiucai Rong, "The yield has to decrease...it's not that the propagation speed is insufficient, it's that the materials are lacking, we need some heavenly and earthly treasures."
He took out a list, with the spirit liquid, materials of various spirit plants on it.
It can be seen that even the cultivation of middle grade spiritual roots is so expensive, not to mention upper grade, celestial spirit roots.
Breeding such high tier spiritual roots requires a huge cost.
"I will contact Zhang Huaping to procure new materials."
Jiucai Rong nodded, went to the square, looking at everyone's eager faces, sitting at the loan desk.
"It's started."
"Those needing loans, line up, only ten today."
"Due to the lack of mass production, the material nutrient solution has not formed a supply, priced at 700 magic coins each."
"If you think it's expensive, you can buy later, loan customers come, full payments are prioritized!"
As soon as these words fell, many wealthy people stepped up.
"I'll take one."
"I'll pay in full."
"Finally, I can draw a card."
Soon, ten people went on stage.
Even Jiucai Rong himself was among the ten, leaving a Soul Separation Flower spiritual root for himself, attracting many side glances from onlookers.
"Jiucai Rong, you're opening the Three Flowers for yourself too?" Su Yuniang asked.
"Gonna give it a try." Jiucai Rong nodded.
After all, as a steward, even the third batch of newcomers has several who succeeded in opening the Three Flowers. If he doesn't succeed soon, he'll become a complete joke.
Moreover, now is the best time to open the Three Flowers when there are no elders around.
He's been studying hard lately, ready to give it a shot. If it doesn't work, so be it, he won't lose much money anyway.
Very quickly, they began to activate the Three Flowers.
Because there were no familiar faces in the world, and the entertainment value was lacking, some people felt uncomfortable.
So a few people led the way, making eccentric faces and spouting nonsense.
"Hahaha, possessed now, got the freedom of the Spiritual Root..." someone shouted while activating the Three Flowers, pretending convincingly.
Someone acted like the village witch, speaking mysteriously:
"Ha, I'm the planner... That's right, every possession was me prank-trolling your game accounts, I want to use your bodies to dance, silly blacksmiths, Grandpa gives you gold, and you don't even kneel to thank?"
Everyone watched with interest.
Soon everyone discovered that this wave of suicides resulted in ten people using probability-increasing tools to directly produce two Embers.
One of them turned out to be Jiucai Rong.
"What are you looking at?"
Ember Jiucai Rong didn't realize he had died, looking at everyone watching him, he walked up and kicked Shao Chaikun on the butt, "Get to work."
"Hey, what are you doing?" Shao Chaikun turned his head angrily.
"Don't you feel something particularly different?" Food God asked.
"No." Jiucai Rong felt puzzled too, "I need to go back to my desk, there are many today's tasks waiting for review."
Saying this, Ember Jiucai Rong left directly.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Jiucai Rong even squeezed his own Embers, letting his Ember baby sit at the office and help process documents.
Ning Zheng was quietly watching nearby as well.
With someone to handle office work, Jiucai Rong was much relieved, thoroughly liberated.
However, the smiths around were full of resentment, finally realizing and starting to mutter.
"From now on, two supervisors, workload halved, he's finally enjoying himself."
"Don't be naïve, it's not just that. From now on, there's activity at the manor at night too, working overtime, handling documents, making plans for the next day, researching manor development... Ember working overtime at night, and Jiucai Rong taking plans the next day, isn't this squeezing himself?"
"Jiucai Rong is completely liberated, no more dark circles every day."
"Hahaha, this game is toxic."
"Jiucai Rong not only squeezes us but also squeezes himself, truly the strongest capitalist."
...
At this moment, Jiucai Rong, who had just resurrected at the manor gate, also saw his Embers, and immediately was overjoyed.
"Wait, no rush to look at Embers, I'll activate the Three Flowers once more. I have a hunch, I have eighty percent possibility." He activated the Three Flowers on the spot, and indeed succeeded.
Embers, new Spiritual Root, double happiness came, and he finally was about to enjoy the treatment of Medical Fairy.
Someone in the crowd was envious, thinking today's planning might have secretly altered Ember-trigger card odds again.
"How about I commit suicide today too?"
"I think it's possible, I'm Lower Grade Shadow Rice Wine, got to commit suicide, resurrect to activate the Three Flowers again, better commit suicide in advance."
Next, a group of people felt today might be lucky, directly committed suicide, cleaning up their Spiritual Roots.
A mere commoner, once obtaining the second batch of Spiritual Roots, they could instantly activate the Three Flowers.
Thus.
Another more than a hundred people died one after the other.
Because this group of people used their savings from this period, spent 50 Magic Coins on probability items for Embers.
As a result, there were seven or eight additional Embers.
Everyone was even happier.
"Damn, finally, the Embers are at normal quantities!"
"I said, those few lucky ones can't enjoy it for long, we brick movers for two months, can also get babies."
"Brother, form a baby harvesting team?"
They were overjoyed, this afternoon's group activity was delightful, even the new blacksmiths without Magic Coins enjoyed watching.
Ning Zheng watched and chuckled.
Two months of brick-moving savings directly emptied.
For just a few little Embers?
These people are sinister if you say sinister, too pure if you say pure.
The salaries I give them are actually quite high, but won't withstand the manor's money-saving and spending cycles.
With no real cost, using a few meat tanks as products, I secretly recycled the Magic Coins from their hands.
Even owed 500~700 Magic Coins.
Moreover, this is just the beginning, in the future synthesis Embers, upgrading Embers, is still a bottomless pit.
Just then, Ning Zheng, who was quite satisfied watching, suddenly received a message from the Communication Token.
It was a strange signal!
Ning Zheng, who was watching happily, suddenly shivered, "Who is it?"
I don't know them.
Must be someone recognized by the original Manor Master.
From the Manorial Demon Man's relationships network while alive.
Could it be the Court backing or a group of Demon Cultivator friends?
Ning Zheng took a deep breath, and opened the Communication Token.
A seductive voice from there, just listening made people feel warm all over:
"How has your manor been lately? The court is in distress, it's time for us to show our talents, do you want to join us for a ride?"
She lowered her voice softly, exhaling like orchids: "Recently, there's new work, big work, I sincerely invite you all to join us."
