Chapter 89: Wu Jiang
After the two people entered the room.
They seemed a bit restrained, looking at a loss.
Obviously, they had stayed in the cramped cabin below for too long and were not used to it.
At the same time, the young cultivator was also secretly observing Qin Ming.
His heart couldn’t help but feel a little apprehensive, not expecting the other party’s identity to be simple, fearing he was a Big Shot.
He was well-versed in the social graces of the Cultivation World and could easily guess the person in front of him.
If he wasn’t concealing his cultivation, he must be an Honored Guest of the Mirror Snow Pavilion.
Qin Ming had boiled the Spirit Spring Water and made Spirit Mist Tea for the two of them. After pouring the tea, he said, “You two don’t have to be polite, let’s just have a casual chat for a while, come, please drink the tea first.”
The young cultivator carefully took the Spirit Tea from Qin Ming’s hand, took a small sip, and savored it for a moment, saying, “Good tea!”
Then he introduced himself to Qin Ming, “I am Wu Jiang, this is my Daoist Companion, Mu Ruyin.”
“I don’t know what questions Fellow Daoist has? I dare not say anything else, but I am quite well-informed about various news and various secret channels in the Lingxi Archipelago.”
“In addition, I want to ask, since Fellow Daoist can live here, your identity is not simple, right?”
Qin Ming was surprised and didn’t expect the other party to be a Local know-it-all, which suited his purpose.
“Fellow Daoist is too polite. I am Qin Ming, just a Spirit Plant Master. This time I am going to the Lingxi Archipelago because I want to find a place of peace for Farming Bitter Cultivation.”
“Oh? I see. I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Qin to be a Spirit Plant Master. Have you joined any Power?” Wu Jiang’s eyes showed a look of surprise.
His gaze swept over this luxurious Guest Room, seemingly hinting at something.
Qin Ming frankly replied, “Qin has not joined any Power.”
Wu Jiang’s eyes rolled, and then he asked, “Then, after Fellow Daoist Qin arrives at the Lingxi Archipelago, do you have any Idea of joining a local Clan?”
“There are many Qi Refining Clans who are always recruiting Spirit Plant Masters, and the Treatment is also good.”
“To be honest, I don’t want to be under someone else’s roof again, and be bound.” Qin Ming resolutely shook his head.
“Then, from what Fellow Daoist Qin means, are you thinking of renting a Immortal’s Cave or a Cultivation place on your own?” Wu Jiang pondered for a moment and asked.
Qin Ming nodded, “But. I have been a Spirit Farmer in the Cloud Marsh Wilderness long enough, this time I want to rent a bigger piece of land, and also be a Landlord.”
He has now entered the Late Qi Refining stage, and can Cultivate more Spirit Field naturally.
“Ah? Landlord. So, Fellow Daoist Qin wants to rent a large Spirit Field.” Wu Jiang’s Corner of the Mouth twitched slightly, not expecting the other party’s Spirit Stone Pouch strength to be so strong!
After saying that, he took a sip of tea.
Qin Ming shook his head, his voice without any fluctuations, and said, “Wrong, wrong, Fellow Daoist Wu, what I mean is that I directly want to rent an entire Island.”
“Pfft!”
Wu Jiang spat out a mouthful of tea, and almost choked.
His Daoist Companion, Mu Ruyin, also had a look of surprise, her small mouth slightly open.
“What? Is there anything inappropriate, Fellow Daoist Wu?” Qin Ming saw the other party’s reaction so strongly and couldn’t help but smile.
Wu Jiang cleared his Throat, and after a moment, said, “I’m a bit short-sighted. So, Fellow Daoist Qin wants to find an Island without an owner and be the Island Lord himself.”
“If it was a few years ago, maybe there would still be some Islands with Spirit Veins that could be rented.”
“But in recent years, most of the Islands with First Rank Spirit Veins have all been Occupied by many Qi Refining Clans and Free Cultivators. It’s rare to hear of Islands without owners.”
“In addition, the Zhao Clan, in recent years, has rarely released Islands with Spirit Veins for rent to Free Cultivators outside.”
“I’m afraid”
Qin Ming heard this News, which was somewhat unexpected. He frowned slightly and said, “Then, what about Islands with Second Rank Spirit Veins?”
Wu Jiang was stunned when he heard this.
The other party’s questions were repeatedly challenging his Understanding.
Wrong.
Second Rank Spirit Vein?
Suddenly, a Spiritual Light flashed through his mind, and he realized where he was sitting.
Wu Jiang’s Heart instantly became clear, Suddenly Realized!
The Qin Fellow Daoist in front of him must be a person with a high Status, a Second-Rank Spirit Plant Master!
Then, in that case, everything made sense.
It’s a pity he was still trying to earn some asking fee from the other party.
Thinking of this, he quickly stood up again and bowed to Qin Ming.
“So, Fellow Daoist Qin is a Second-Rank Spirit Plant Master, forgive us for being so presumptuous just now.”
Mu Ruyin, who was next to him, was also startled when she heard this, and quickly stood up and gracefully bowed.
Qin Ming waved his hand, “Two Fellow Daoists, no need to be so restrained, please sit down.”
The two heard this and sat down.
“Fellow Daoist Qin, to be honest, there are only a few Islands with Second Rank Spirit Veins in the Lingxi Archipelago, and most of them are arranged for the Zhao Clan’s Industry.”
“The rest are some Clans and Free Cultivators with considerable Strength.”
“I’m afraid it’s not easy to rent either!”
“Furthermore, for an entire Island, the Rent each year is a considerable amount of Spirit Stone”
Wu Jiang said this, glanced at Qin Ming’s Reaction, and added another sentence.
“However, I believe that for a Second-Rank Spirit Plant Master like Fellow Daoist Qin, it shouldn’t be a problem.”
Qin Ming frowned slightly, not expecting the actual situation of the Lingxi Archipelago to be quite different from his previous expectations.
Not to mention having Spirit Veins, he couldn’t even rent an Ordinary Island.
“Hey~ That’s indeed a bit of a Regret.”
Qin Ming sighed slightly.
If it doesn’t work, he can only choose the other few Destination options.
Wu Jiang saw Qin Ming like this, and his brain was rapidly turning.
To be honest, it was the first time he had met a figure like a Second-Rank Spirit Plant Master.
He couldn’t let go of such a Big Thigh!
He had carefully Observed Qin Ming’s words and deeds just now, not to say he was a Gentleman, but he was also a person of an open mind.
Wu Jiang immediately said, “Fellow Daoist Qin, although Islands with Second Rank Spirit Veins are rare, it’s not entirely without Opportunity…”
“Oh? Fellow Daoist Wu, please speak.” Qin Ming’s Spirit was lifted when he heard this, and it seemed there was still a chance.
Wu Jiang explained, “Fellow Daoist Qin, the shortest Rent period for Islands with Second Rank Spirit Veins within this Lingxi Archipelago starts at ten years.”
“I’m not sure about the other Islands, but a distant Relative of mine came to Visit me once and mentioned that an Island with a Second Rank Spirit Vein on the north side of the Lingxi Archipelago was originally rented by a Qi Refining Clan, the Mo Clan.”
“Unfortunately, the Patriarch of the Mo Clan Fell in an Accident a few years ago, and since then, the Mo Clan has been in decline and fallen. Without the Patriarch of the Mo Clan, the remaining Clan Members are estimated to be unable to afford the required expenses of renting an Island with Second Rank Spirit Vein.”
“And, the Rent period of the Island will expire within this year.”
“If by Then, the Mo Clan cannot pay the Rent Spirit Stones, the Zhao Clan is very likely to look for someone else.”
“Coincidentally, my Father has a relationship with people from the Mo Clan and can act to find out some information.”
Qin Ming, upon hearing this, fell into a Deep Thought.
Things seemed to have a turn, but this turn wasn’t very big.
However, he carefully Analyzed and Pondered.
He still Decided to go and see Exactly what’s going on.
He was unfamiliar with the place and needed a Local to lead the way.
“Then I’ll have to Trouble Fellow Daoist Wu, to take me to see what the situation is, if it’s done, the Benefits won’t be less for Fellow Daoist Wu.” Qin Ming said after a Moment of Pondering.
“Hehe!”
“Look at how Fellow Daoist Qin says it, being able to know a Second-Rank Spirit Plant Master, that is my Honor!”
