Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Zhangqing cultivated the First Mu Grade-2 Spirit Field during the day.

He cultivated the Second Mu Grade-2 Spirit Field at night.

Under this near-frenzied cultivation, the spirit plants in the two mu of spirit fields grew faster and faster, basically changing appearance every day, transforming daily.

Especially the Mingyue Grass, which originally took a month to mature.

As a result, in just seven days, it had already grown to four inches.

You must know, they can be harvested once they reach seven inches.

Therefore, basically matching Xu Zhangqing's previous deduction, in about ten days to half a month, the Mingyue Grass would certainly mature.

In the morning, Xu Zhangqing was using the Green Lotus Domain to cultivate the spirit rice in the First Mu Spirit Field.

Just then, his divine sense perceived someone approaching.

Two people, at that.

Seeing this, he immediately retracted the Companion Green Lotus.

When the distance closed, he discovered the arrivals were Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue.

Xu Zhangqing stepped forward to greet them: "Why have you come?"

Hu Bugui grinned: "It's the end of the month, time to split the money."

At these words, Xu Zhangqing finally reacted.

As previously agreed, the spirit stones earned by Zhuqi Peak would be divided once a month.

At this moment, it happened to be the last day of the tenth month.

Immediately, the three entered the wooden house, even deliberately closing the door.

Xu Zhangqing, Hu Bugui, and Zhao Ziyue gathered around the dining table.

Hu Bugui took out a small storage bag, placed it heavily on the tabletop, then explained: "This is a small storage bag I specially bought, specifically used to store the spirit stones we earned from Zhuqi Peak."

Xu Zhangqing glanced at Zhao Ziyue, saw the other party had no reaction, apparently he already knew.

For this, he didn't mind.

He was just a hands-off shopkeeper, only providing melons, fruits, vegetables, and spirit rice wine.

As for how much money could be earned, he no longer cared as much as at the very beginning.

Now, all his attention was focused on his own spirit fields and the Loose Cultivator Market.

Subsequently, Hu Bugui opened the small storage bag and poured out the spirit stones inside.

In a short while, the table was covered, and quite a few even fell on the ground.

Yet he didn't stop, they still kept falling out in an endless stream.

Gradually, a single table couldn't hold them all, so they could only be poured on the ground.

In the end, almost the entire living room of the wooden house was paved with spirit stones.

The smaller ones were all low-grade spirit stones, in especially large quantities.

The larger ones were middle-grade spirit stones, visibly far fewer.

At this moment, the wooden house was exceptionally quiet, only the three men's heavy breathing could be heard.

Xu Zhangqing and Zhao Ziyue looked around, their eyes blurring.

Hu Bugui swept a glance at the two, saying rather proudly: "This month, although fewer people joined the alliance, the number of people buying ingredients and resources from us has multiplied several times over."

Xu Zhangqing urged: "Stop beating around the bush, just say the total directly."

Hu Bugui picked up twenty middle-grade spirit stones, saying cheerfully: "These twenty are our total cost for the tenth month."

Zhao Ziyue stared wide-eyed: "The cost was only twenty middle-grade spirit stones?!"

Hu Bugui didn't beat around the bush either, continuing: "Excluding the last day, in the tenth month we earned a total of 440 middle-grade spirit stones and 5,683 low-grade spirit stones."

Xu Zhangqing exclaimed in surprise: "This many?!"

Zhao Ziyue even more sharply inhaled: "Hiss!"

He could calculate the spirit stones earned from recruiting people, roughly three hundred.

He never expected the final amount would be this much, already far surpassing his mental estimate.

Although fewer people joined the alliance, the people buying ingredients kept increasing.

Not just the stall owners, even many guests who had eaten roasted meat, top-grade fruits and vegetables, and spirit rice wine, also began to actively contact Hu Bugui.

Precisely because of this, the tenth month saw a huge profit.

Hu Bugui hurriedly said: "Lao Xu, your brain is sharp, you calculate how to split it."

Zhao Ziyue reminded: "Right, mustn't forget Li Sancai still takes two tenths."

Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing pondered carefully.

Li Sancai helped them once before, therefore he obtains two tenths of the total revenue.

However, middle-grade spirit stones and low-grade spirit stones must be distinguished.

They cannot all be lumped together.

Therefore, Li Sancai receives 88 middle-grade spirit stones and 1,224 low-grade spirit stones.

The remaining portion is then divided among the three of them.

He himself took seventy percent, receiving 246 middle-grade spirit stones and 3,182 low-grade spirit stones.

Hu Bugui took two tenths, receiving 70 middle-grade spirit stones and 909 low-grade spirit stones.

Zhao Ziyue took one tenth, receiving 35 middle-grade spirit stones and 454 low-grade spirit stones.

"With this many spirit stones, I can buy a better fishing rod!"

"Look at your lack of ambition; with money you'll definitely increase investment and buy more spirit beasts!"

"This time it was indeed a bit unexpected!"

Being able to receive so many spirit stones, all three were very surprised.

Especially Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue, their hands itching to spend could no longer be restrained.

However, although they were excited and impatient, they did not act recklessly.

Dividing the money, Xu Zhangqing definitely had to come personally.

This is the rule, it cannot be overstepped.

Seeing the two's impatient appearance, Xu Zhangqing also did not delay, dividing the spirit stones one by one.

After an incense stick's time, except for the 88 middle-grade and 1,224 low-grade belonging to Li Sancai placed on the ground.

Xu Zhangqing, Hu Bugui, and Zhao Ziyue all tucked them into their own storage bags.

Hu Bugui looked at the remaining spirit stones on the ground and pondered: "Lao Xu, you and Senior Brother Li have the best relationship, why don't you personally make a trip?"

Zhao Ziyue followed up: "Of course, if you have something on, I can deliver them."

Among the three, the most leisurely was him.

All day he was either fishing or on the way to fish.

As for cultivation, talisman making, and such matters, he had hardly ever done them.

Yet his strength not only did not stagnate, but even grew slowly.

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "No, I happen to have time, I'll go personally."

It wasn't because he didn't trust Zhao Ziyue and Hu Bugui.

In terms of character, they still had no problem.

It was mainly to express gratitude to Senior Brother Li; delivering personally shows greater importance.

Hearing this, Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue nodded.

Before leaving, Zhao Ziyue asked: "Lao Xu, do you need me to cast the Small Cloud Rain Technique?"

Xu Zhangqing's expression changed slightly, refusing the other's kindness for the first time: "Not needed for now, the spirit field's situation is still fine."

Seeing this, Zhao Ziyue did not persist either, and together with Hu Bugui opened the door and walked out.

As they walked, the two discussed going to Black Dragon Pool to fish for dragon fish.

Anyway, their pockets were flush now, and there was no more danger over there.

Watching the two's receding backs, Xu Zhangqing picked up the spirit stones on the ground, put them into another small storage bag, then took out Senior Brother Li's communication talisman.

Just as he was about to ask if the other was free, another communication talisman transmitted a slight vibration.

"Hello?"

"Little brother, your storage item 【Lightly Vitality Gourd】 has been refined, come get it!"

"Elder Sister... is it okay if I go this afternoon?"

"The way you put it, you can come anytime, could Elder Sister still refuse?"

"Deal, I'll go get the 【Lightly Vitality Gourd】 this afternoon!!!"
