Thirty million!
The boss was stunned by Chen Jiuyang's price increase.
Who would increase the price by ten million in one go!
As the boss's expression trembled, he subconsciously showed a pleased look and quickly said, "Good!"
Chen Jiuyang smiled and said, "If you sign the contract and complete the procedures within today, and move all your things out, I'll give you another two million!"
"Good, good, good! No problem! I'll call someone to move the things now!" The boss's eyes were full of joy.
His shop was full of clothes, so it was easy to have them moved out without much trouble.
With a total of thirty-two million, Chen Jiuyang acquired the three-story building, totaling twelve hundred square meters.
In less than half a day, just after lunch, this small building belonged to Chen Jiuyang. All the procedures were complete. The boss, looking at the thirty-two million in his bank card, couldn't stop smiling.
Lin Yuexian asked, "Jiuyang, the house is bought. Should we find a renovation company next?"
Chen Jiuyang smiled and said, "No need for so much trouble. We'll just go to the decoration city directly."
What a joke. With his Nascent Soul stage cultivation, how easy would it be to renovate this house? Controlling his spiritual power, he replaced the original tiled floor with solid wood flooring. The lighting left by the clothing store owner didn't need to be changed, at most, he would replace it with eye-friendly reading ambient lights.
Materials were moved in and out of the spatial ring. In just one afternoon, Chen Jiuyang had renovated the three-story house. The first floor, four hundred square meters, would be a bookstore. The second and third floors would be living quarters, after all, Chen Jiuyang had more than one woman.
The entire building was also equipped with formations to prevent prying eyes. By evening, the signboard was also changed.
The clothing store officially became Ping An Bookstore.
More books were placed on the assembled bookshelves from the spatial ring, and it was officially completed.
Lin Yuexian was still just a small cultivator in the Qi Refining stage. Seeing Chen Jiuyang use his spiritual power like this, she was greatly impressed and at the same time wondered about Chen Jiuyang's cultivation level.
"Let's go home. We'll officially open tomorrow."
Going up to the second floor, they directly returned to the spiritual脉泉眼 below Chen Jiuyang's villa in Qingzhu Village through the Two Realms Mirror.
In the following days, Chen Jiuyang and Lin Yuexian cultivated and took turns guarding the bookstore, reading books to pass the time.
A shop in the old city district turning into a bookstore overnight did not attract much attention. In the first few days of opening, not even a single customer walked in to browse books.
For people nowadays, a mobile phone is enough to get most information, and there are also e-books. Very few people would specifically come to a bookstore to read.
But whether customers came or not made no difference to Chen Jiuyang.
Chen Jiuyang opened a bookstore here but did not inform his other confidantes. However, being in Fengcheng made it more convenient to meet them.
In October, the leaves were falling.
Chen Jiuyang's confidantes had all embarked on the path of immortality and had their own matters to attend to. Chen Jiuyang visited them at regular intervals.
On Monday, he visited Yao Zixuan. On Tuesday, he visited Qin Rouyu. On Wednesday, he met Qiu Yihan. On Thursday, he met Ji Lengyue. As for Yun Jingbai, she was still studying at Jixia Academy and there was no news from her.
This month, Jixia Academy, as in the previous life, released the Jinxiu List, the Shanhe List, and the Tianxia List.
However, Chen Jiuyang was not on the list.
Firstly, he had carved a formation on himself to shield heavenly secrets and calculations. Secondly, he had never fought anyone and had never exposed his combat power. Thirdly, he was an immortal cultivator.
Now, the golden age had arrived, and the prodigies of all realms were about to descend upon Earth to walk the ancient path of the Great Emperor. Currently, those who could make the list were monstrous prodigies of martial arts.
Number one on the Tianxia List: Yan Fengyun!
In this life, the war between righteous and demonic factions was still in its early stages, and no old monsters had appeared from either side.
Those ranked high on the Shanhe List and Tianxia List were all old acquaintances of Chen Jiuyang.
Number one on the Shanhe List: Ye Tiannan!
As soon as the three lists were released, they caused a global sensation.
The great era had thus quietly arrived.
However, this had nothing to do with Chen Jiuyang. He was just an ordinary bookstore owner, with beauties by his side, enjoying the fragrance of books. What did it matter to him how lively the world was?
Yao Zixuan was a direct disciple of the Feather Ascension Sect and was busy cultivating. Ji Lengyue had returned to the front lines of the Six Doors, busy solving cases. Qin Rouyu had also joined the Misty Rain Sect under the Chen family of Shu Mountain and was also busy cultivating. Qiu Yihan, this girl, was engrossed in cultivating at home.
Lin Yuexian did not want to be outdone and was also diligently cultivating.
Chen Jiuyang looked around and couldn't help but give a wry smile: "It seems I'm the only idle one."
In his previous life, he was the busy one, with his loved ones waiting for him.
In this life, it had reversed, and Chen Jiuyang was now waiting for his confidantes.
With the arrival of the golden age, although it had nothing to do with Chen Jiuyang, it also affected the confidantes around him.
The most obvious among them was Ji Lengyue. Various forces were fighting for profit, using all sorts of schemes and methods to kill and seize treasures. Since October, Ji Lengyue had been extremely busy, barely having time to rest.
And in the Fengcheng area, the most troublesome force was the Lotus Sect.
This day.
Ji Lengyue was investigating a murder case. After much investigation, she discovered that the case was related to the Lotus Sect.
The Lotus Sect's base camp was disguised as a trading company, renting an office building to conduct their business.
However, Ji Lengyue did not know this, and even Xi Butui had not obtained this information.
Therefore, Ji Lengyue and her teammates barged into the Lotus Sect's base camp in Feng Province.
In the original timeline, the old dog Liansheng had always been plotting to devour people with higher destiny to improve his Eight-Life Immortal Cultivation technique.
With Chen Jiuyang's timely reminder, Liansheng the dog went into hiding and finally set his sights on Yun Tiancheng, the recently renowned Prefect of Fengcheng.
As the Prefect, Yun Tiancheng naturally had the blessing of destiny. Recently, his daughter had also entered Jixia Academy for further studies, which had also brought him a trace of Confucian destiny.
How could this not make Liansheng the dog covetous?
He personally came to Fengcheng, bringing Ming Huatong, preparing to plot against Yun Tiancheng.
Ji Lengyue and her teammates, armed with firearms, barged into the building and saw hundreds of Lotus Sect members dressed in blue lotus robes.
Each of them looked extremely dangerous.
"!!!" Ji Lengyue's teammates' scalps immediately went numb: "Retreat! Leng Yue, we've stirred up a hornet's nest!"
Ji Lengyue also realized something was wrong and quickly prepared to retreat.
"People from the Six Doors? Your reach is quite long." The Old Mother of Lotus sighed softly, her finger gently flicking, and a trace of vast true qi flowed.
"Crack..."
Ji Lengyue and her teammates' bodies instantly stiffened, unable to move.
Terror filled Ji Lengyue and her teammates' eyes.
The Old Mother of Lotus exerted a little more force with her finger, intending to strike a fatal blow to Ji Lengyue and her teammates.
At this moment, the small knife Chen Jiuyang had left for Ji Lengyue suddenly erupted with light and moved with a roar.
"Rumble!!!"
