So, even if he were to buy ordinary maids without a Spiritual Root, the money he had would hardly suffice.

Because if one were to buy maids, naturally one could not just buy one or two; if buying, one should buy many at once.

And with the increase of maids, the matter of renting a house also had to be put on the agenda.

“Alas, wealth and companions are needed in the practice of the law, wealth and companions are needed in the practice of the law, indeed, no matter where you are, you need to have money.”

“If it wasn’t for my talisman-making skills, these years, having stored so many talismans on me, the very thought of cultivation would be extremely difficult.”

Lu Changsheng shook his head and sighed, deeply sensing the difficulty of cultivation.

If it was already like this for himself, how much harder it must be for other ordinary cultivators, he thought.

After giving Lu Miaoge a quick heads-up, Lu Changsheng left the house and, after disguising himself, went around to several Spiritual Talisman Shops and sold almost two hundred talismans.

This time selling talismans, he was even more cautious and did not go to the shops where he had sold talismans before, to avoid being noticed by someone with ulterior motives.

“Sigh, this is ultimately not a long-term solution.”

“A few more times, I would have visited every Spiritual Talisman Shop in the Nine Dragons Market, and I might end up drawing the attention of someone with ulterior motives.”

In the inn, Lu Changsheng checked himself with a Purification Talisman, making sure he wasn’t being watched, and let out a sigh of relief.

“The Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop purchases talismans outside every month; in a few more months, the young lady won’t be at the Spiritual Talisman Shop every day, and by then, I will be fully in charge of the shop.”

“At that time, depending on the situation, I can sell the talismans I have through the channel of the Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop, without having to run around like this, worried about being watched.”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes flickered.

He had thought before about whether he could sell his own Spirit Talismans through the Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop.

And this month’s observations made him feel it was increasingly feasible.

All he needed to do was to forge a supplier, as long as the goods provided were fine.

Once the shop was under his full responsibility, such a thing would be easier than ever.

That night.

Lu Changsheng also asked Xiaoqing to find out about the housing prices and rental situation in the Nine Dragons Market and planned to rent a four to five hundred square meter house.

For the location of the house, he told Xiaoqing to look in the Eastern and Northern Districts and not to go to the Western District.

The Western District was the gathering place for Loose Cultivators, not only was it far, but it was also a mixture of good and bad, and there might be unexpected dangers.

So it wouldn’t matter even if it cost a bit more money.

Even though the Northern District was a commercial and entertainment district, belonging to the bustling city, there were still many houses for rent.

It’s just that the cost-effectiveness wasn’t very high.

Considering the Northern District was mainly to be as close as possible to the Spiritual Talisman Shop for convenience.

This would not only save him the daily commute time but also make explanations to the Lu Family simpler.

Two days later.

Xiaoqing showed Lu Changsheng several houses to pick from.

Looking at the conditions and prices of these houses, Lu Changsheng also gained an understanding of the housing prices in the Nine Dragons Market.

In the Eastern District, a house of four to five hundred square meters, depending on different lease terms, location, and environment, the price would be roughly between sixty and one hundred Spirit Stones.

The houses in the Northern District, however, were much cheaper – the rent for a year was around thirty to eighty Spirit Stones.

After looking at the houses Xiaoqing had picked out, Lu Changsheng immediately made a decision.

He chose a house in the Northern District, not far from the Spiritual Talisman Shop.

The walk was almost fifteen minutes.

The house was about four hundred square meters, and the minimum lease term was five years.

The annual rent was fifty Spirit Stones, which could be paid yearly, and one year’s rent would be required as a deposit.

After deciding to rent the house, Lu Changsheng mentioned the matter to Lu Miaoge that same night and also informed the Second Elder.

After all, it wouldn’t seem right to just rent a house and move out without saying a word when he was living comfortably in the area.

And he had a ready-made reason.

He was planning to have some of his wives and concubines come to stay in the Marketplace for a while, which would be somewhat cramped at his current place and not very convenient.

Moreover, he didn’t want to walk back and forth every day, so he decided to rent a house near the Spiritual Talisman Shop, which would make things much more convenient on a daily basis.

When the Second Elder heard this, he initially suggested giving Lu Changsheng a larger courtyard.

But upon Lu Changsheng’s insistence, he didn’t say much else.

He only asked briefly whether Lu Changsheng had rented yet and if he had found a suitable house, offering to have someone help take a look.

Lu Changsheng stated that he hadn’t rented yet but had seen some and had a few in mind, and he showed his choices to the Second Elder.

After looking them over, the latter saw no issues, but merely advised Lu Changsheng to come and visit more often.

The very next day, Lu Changsheng went to the housing store management center established by Qingyun Sect, paid a hundred Spirit Stones, and signed a rental Spiritual Contract.

During the lease period, he had the right to enter and reside in the Marketplace without the need to pay the city entrance fee or process an identity card.

Moreover, according to the size of the house, he also obtained three additional free residency spots.

Having such a large house but only three free residency spots made Lu Changsheng shake his head in disdain at their stinginess.

What he found even more ridiculous was that the long-term identity cards that he had processed for himself and Xiao Qing were non-refundable, and he couldn’t get any Spirit Stones back.

After completing the house rental, Lu Changsheng once again visited the White Jade Tower to purchase maids.

What surprised him was that even the ordinary maids at White Jade Tower were so expensive.

Even those without a Spiritual Root cost several Spirit Stones each, and the more expensive ones could cost dozens or even hundreds.

With Feng Jiuniang’s explanation, he understood why even ordinary maids were so costly.

One reason was the brand reputation of White Jade Tower.

It guaranteed absolute assurance in the maids’ appearance, figure, and loyalty.

Additionally, these maids were trained and educated by White Jade Tower, not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and the pleasures of the boudoir.

They were also skilled in martial arts, and even the Cultivation Techniques they practiced could enhance and solidify one’s foundation.

For maids without a Spiritual Root, there were more options available; essentially, as long as one had the money, White Jade Tower could provide whatever looks, figure, and personality one desired.

In the selection, Lu Changsheng also saw exotic female figures like Jiu’er and Shui’er, as well as maidens of the Demon Race.

However, most of these Demon Race women partially possessed demon bloodlines, which were activated by White Jade Tower through certain methods, giving rise to demonic features.

Such maids were only suitable as cherished concubines and generally lacked the ability to bear children, which Lu Changsheng found regrettable.

In the end, Lu Changsheng spent one hundred and sixteen Spirit Stones to purchase nine maids with unique features.

Two of them were already in the White Jade Tower, while the rest would be sent over later.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng settled the two maids in his newly rented house, and that very day he packed light, moving in with Shao Yuyao and Xiao Qing.
