The house that Mr. Gong bought was very small, with only one entrance and located in a very remote area, but the price was not cheap. When he bought it, he spent a full 36,000 fairy crystals.
Old Gong pushed the door open and entered the house, threw a formation talisman to Xu Chunniang, and pointed to the west wing.
"You can stay in that room for the next few days. I have to go out for some work and won't be back until tomorrow.
This array talisman can control the array in the entire house. If you go out, remember to close the array in the house to prevent irrelevant people from coming in."
Xu Chunniang took the talisman, fiddled with it for a while, and soon figured out the principle behind it.
Seeing that she knew how to use the formation talisman, Mr. Gong nodded slightly.
"Then I'll be leaving first. You can walk around the city for a few days to get familiar with the environment. If you have any questions, you can ask me.
But you must remember not to cause trouble. There are many hidden talents in Fuyu City. If something happens, I may not be able to help you."
Although Zongdongtian is the first heaven, the lowest among the nine heavens in the fairy world, there are also some immortals with status and background who have settled in various major cities.
Among them, some earthly immortals stay in this world in order to do things for the heavenly immortals behind them.
Even Mr. Gong was unwilling to provoke these people.
Xu Chunniang understood and assured Mr. Gong.
"Don't worry, Mr. Gong. I know who to offend and who not to offend. If anything happens, I won't dare to cause trouble for you."
Mr. Gong stopped talking and when he saw that she understood what he meant, he said no more and turned to leave the yard.
After watching Mr. Gong leave, Xu Chunniang turned and entered the west wing.
This room is not big and the furnishings inside are very simple, with only a wooden bed and a set of tables and chairs.
But there are no ordinary things in the fairy world. The materials used to make wooden beds, tables and chairs are all fairy-grade woods, exuding a faint fragrance.
Xu Chunniang took a quick look and did not stay in the room. After activating the formation talisman to close the formation in the yard, she turned and left the yard.
She walked in the alley, surrounded by houses of varying heights, with dense clouds beneath her feet, intertwined with the azure sky, looking quite artistic.
She walked along the path without any purpose, and after passing through several alleys, she stepped into a busy street.
Both sides of the street are filled with shops selling all kinds of things. The worst quality items are semi-immortal level and are sold for only a few immortal crystals.
Xu Chunniang walked along the way and was dazzled by the sights. It was truly an eye-opener.
She didn't have many fairy crystals in her hands, so facing the enthusiastic solicitations of the shop assistants in various stores, she could only pretend to be uninterested.
She walked along the way and saw a spice shop in an inconspicuous place at the end of the street.
Thinking of what Mr. Gong said, that the bark of Centella cedar could be used to make spices or frostbite ointment, Xu Chunniang had an idea and walked in.
A female fairy with fragrant clothes came up to them with a smile on her face.
"Hello, fairy. This is the famous spice shop in Fuyu City. We have all kinds of incense here, no matter how unpopular it is. 70% of the female fairies in the city are willing to come here to buy incense. What would you like to order?"
"I heard that the bark of Centella cedar can be used to make incense. Is that true?"
The fairy smiled and nodded, with an admiring look in her eyes.
“It seems that the fairy is also someone who understands fragrance. Although this Centella cedar is not a precious fairy wood, it grows in the extremely cold Zhangwei Mountain and has a unique cold frost flavor. If it is used to make incense, its unique fragrance can be preserved intact.
However, we have three kinds of incense made from Centella asiatica in our store. Which one would you like, fairy?"
As she spoke, the fairy took down a small tray from a shelf. On the tray were three small porcelain bottles, which were the three kinds of incense made from Centella asiatica.
At the fairy's invitation, Xu Chunniang tried the three incense sticks one after another, and indeed she smelled the unique aroma of Centella cedar.
She put down the porcelain bottle and looked at the fairy, "I wonder if you will accept the raw materials for making incense?"
A look of surprise flashed across the fairy's face, then returned to normal. She shook her head and an apologetic smile appeared on her face.
"Sorry, our store has a fixed supply. In order to ensure the stability of the fragrance, we generally do not change the supply."
Although she guessed that she might fail, Xu Chunniang still felt a little disappointed after being clearly rejected.
Zhangwei Mountain is a bitter and cold place with few resources, so she can't get many magical items in the mountains.
Processed Centella cedar bark can be used to make incense, and the selling price should be more valuable than selling it as a whole. Unfortunately, other shops do not accept bulk goods, so this approach is not feasible.
Xu Chunniang walked out of the spice shop, looking for a way to earn immortal crystals as she walked.
The fairy world is nothing more than a larger world of cultivation. Whether it is cultivation or life, it is inseparable from fairy crystals. Only by earning enough fairy crystals can one leave Zhangwei Mountain, buy a good house, and practice in peace.
After walking around Fu Yu City for a while, Xu Chunniang actually saw a lot of ways to earn immortal crystals.
Some shops are hiring workers, and if they work for a month, they can earn 100 fairy crystals.
In a year, that’s 1,200 immortal crystals.
Xu Chunniang thought about it and realized that if she wanted to buy a small courtyard like the one owned by Old Gong, she would need to work for a full thirty years to collect enough fairy crystals.
Moreover, there must be no expenses during these thirty years, otherwise it will take a few more years.
Xu Chunniang stared at the job recruitment notice posted on the door of a store for a while, then silently looked away.
Working in a shop, I earn too little, it's a complete waste of time.
She continued to look at other job recruitment notices. The wages were all very low. Some small shops even offered sixty fairy crystals per month.
There was only one company that was recruiting formation master apprentices, and the price they offered was slightly higher, but only one hundred and fifty fairy crystals per month.
It seems that she is not suitable for work.
Xu Chunniang did not look at the job recruitment notices again. She wandered aimlessly in Fu Yu City, looking for other opportunities.
Finally, after stepping into a new street, she saw a commission hall.
Just as Xu Chunniang guessed, this commission hall undertakes all kinds of commissions, ranging from celestial fairy items to running errands in other fairy cities. It has all kinds of commission tasks.
The rewards for completing a commission vary depending on the difficulty of the commission. Anyone can post a commission here. If you want to accept a commission, you must first become a commission hunter.
For each completed commission, the Commission Hall will charge a fee of one tenth, which will be deducted from the remuneration.
If it fails, no fees will be charged until the commission is successful.
Xu Chunniang walked around the commissioned hall, and soon someone came towards her with a knowing smile on his face.
"Does the fairy want to become a commissioned hunter?"
Xu Chunniang took a look at the newcomer and nodded. "What are the requirements for becoming a commissioned hunter?"
