After defeating the Wine Fox Fairy and driving away Ning Zhongzi, Lu Ya lamented that life as a salted fish was not easy to come by.

With the spiritual sword on his pillow and the sunlight streaming in from the window, he fell asleep comfortably.

Ten days passed by in a flash.

These ten days.

Lu Ya didn't even go down the mountain. He was basically eating, drinking, sleeping, fishing, soaking in hot springs, and dazing...

The meal was grilled angelfish.

What I drank was Xianmi wine.

Sleeping on a woman's bed.

The one I took a dip in was the Women's Fountain.

What I am fishing for is straight hook fish.

The Zhuquan Sect has rich aura, beautiful scenery, gurgling water, beautiful women, and bone-eroding hot springs. The rhythm is very leisurely, and it is called a comfortable life.

These ten days.

Lu Ya wrote a full-level fairy fertilizer formula for Ning Zhongzi, trying to use the cheapest medicinal materials to prepare the most perfect fertilizer possible to conceive and raise fairy spirits.

He also took out a few full-level seasoning recipes, and after Ning Zhongzi's meticulous preparation, coupled with the chef's superb cooking skills, he was able to perform at about 80% of his level.

These ten days.

The Wine Fox Fairy visited the Beast Nest Forest many times and brought back many loose fairies to join the city defense team. As a result, he came to Lu Ya many times to ask for high-grade bamboo pieces and help heal his injuries.

Help you heal?

You want to fall in love with me, you coquettish fox, but I will heal your wounds?

nonexistent.

"Let's find some stronger Loose Immortals to come back."

"..."

These ten days.

When Lu Ya was soaking in hot springs, he would often meet Liu Xuanye, who was bathing and repairing in the pool next door. The two would chat about life and ideals in a casual manner. Occasionally, he would receive an invitation from Liu Xuanye for a weekend break.

Weekend?

You dare to ask me for a weekend break?

"I've been busy with city affairs lately and I'm feeling a little weak. Can you let me rest for a few years?"

"..."

These ten days.

Ning Zhongzi followed Lu Ya's plan, worked hard and promoted the city construction step by step, and achieved good results. During this period, he wanted to ask Lu Ya for more details several times.

As a result, Lu Ya dismissed him with just one word.

"Senior sister, you are now a mature woman. It's time to learn to think and act on your own."

"..."

These ten days.

When Lu Ya was fishing by the lake, Mu Yu Feifei always kept asking him to grill fish.

Lu Ya thought to himself, if this continues, wouldn't I become the nanny of two naughty children?

Then he said:

"You two are incompetent. You know how to eat all day long. Go and learn more from Mr. Jiuhu. If one day you can beat a hair on my head, I will cook whatever you want."

Win you by a hair?

This is a bonus question!

The two girls were overjoyed and almost moved to tears.

"real or fake?"

"real."

"We want to eat the big fish that is said to fly in the sky of the Beast's Nest Forest. Do you want to cook it too?"

"Burned."

"Uncle, you are so kind!"

"We are going to challenge your hair now!"

By the lakeside in the bamboo forest, the two girls were gearing up, howling, and the wind roared from the rain, suddenly turning into the shape of a huge tiger, and they pounced towards Lu Ya together.

As a result, he was beaten to the point of being knocked unconscious by Lu Ya's hairy clone - a five-year-old mini Lu Ya with a cold expression.

Lying on the boulder by the lake with sad faces, looking at Lu Ya who was fishing leisurely, the two girls cried loudly:

"Damn it, why are his hairs so strong?"

"Isn't the mighty Tiger Immortal worse than a hair on his body?"

"I want to be stronger!"

"I want to eat big fish!"

…

Ten days later.

It was a crisp, sunny autumn morning.

Lu Ya walked out of the bamboo hut and stretched for a long time.

I've been eating salted fish for too long, and I'm actually a little tired!

Experiments have proven that eating salted fish for a long time will really make you tired.

Monotony, repetition, muscle relaxation...

It seems that Qingluan City must be built as soon as possible.

Only a life with new ideas will be happy.

A happy salted fish is a real salted fish.

He no longer wants to go out on adventures to find happiness like a brave man like in the game. It would be better if interesting things come to him and give him pleasure.

Then use this to develop various new industries such as food, entertainment, sports, games, etc., so that you can experience a happy life without leaving home.

Thinking like this, Lu Ya stepped down the mountain, ready to guide and supervise the development of Qingluan City.

Ning Zhongzi was overjoyed when he saw Lu Ya, but his pretty face was slightly stretched and he said calmly:

"Senior brother, have you rested?"

Lu Ya yawned and said:

"Well, I'm tired from rest."

Ning Zhongzi's beautiful face was startled, and she didn't know how to answer the call for a moment.

What's interesting is that after Lu Yayi rested for ten days, his soles were very weak and his complexion was very listless.

Ning Zhongzi was busy promoting the construction of the city. He was tired for ten days in a row, but he looked good.

Even her expression was no longer as serious as before. She was dressed in a green robe and looked ethereal, with an indescribable sense of rhythm in her plump and majestic movements.

Following Ning Zhongzi, Lu Ya visited the eight newly opened thoroughfares in Fukong Mountain.

Eight long rivers are dug from the foot of the mountain to the edge of Fukong Mountain, and then flow to the bottom of Fukong Mountain, soaking the ground rocks and entering the water cycle.

On both sides of the eight rivers, there are neat fields of grain, wheat, and vegetable beds planted with fruits and vegetables.

Most of them are very precious fairy varieties, and they are still green and pointed seedlings.

At the back of the field, there are several pastures separated by fences, mainly raising pheasants, wild boars and black sheep.

The price of fairy wild animal seedlings is very high, so the initial pasture was not large and only a few hundred fairy animals were raised.

These fields and pastures are resources of the Zhuquan Sect.

About a thousand people worked in the fields and pastures.

Several of the original villages at the foot of the mountain were demolished, and the Zhuquan Sect built rows of bamboo houses along the river.

The bamboo house is as beautiful as the villa. Peach trees and willows were transplanted by the river, the immortals' private vegetable beds were developed, and ordinary poultry and livestock were raised.

Immortal people live and work in peace and contentment, with private land and beautiful houses, as well as jobs provided by the sect.

Whether they are local immortals or refugees from other places, their faces are filled with happy smiles.

Seeing Lu Ya coming, everyone, men, women, old and young, stopped their farm work.

"Hello, Elder Lu."

"Elder Lu, you have finally come down the mountain."

"Elder Lu, try the melons I planted."

Lu Ya nodded without hesitation and picked two slender, crisp cucumbers.

Pure Xianran product, no need to wash, just take one bite, sweet and crispy, indescribable.

"What a crispy melon. Senior sister, would you like some?"

"..."

After walking around, Ning Zhongzi reported to Lu Ya roughly the progress of the work in the past ten days.

"At present, the number of immortals registered in Qingluan City has exceeded 2,000, and the number is increasing day by day. It is expected that in two months, 10,000 refugees will be attracted to move in, completing the task ahead of schedule."

"good."

"Thanks to senior brother's plan and the fairy fertilizer formula, the total land currently cultivated and used for animal husbandry accounts for about 10% of the total land in Fukong Mountain. It is mainly planted with advanced immortal wheat and immortal valley, and the livestock raised are also advanced immortal animals."

"very good."

"But with the current resource reserves of Zhuquan Sect, this situation can only last for one month."

Ning Zhongzi calmly told the facts without a trace of worry in his eyes.

Lu Ya was a little confused.

"It took two months to raise 10,000 people, but we can only last one month... Isn't this a big trouble? Why aren't you nervous at all?"

Ning Zhongzi stood with his hands behind his back, calm and relaxed.

"Senior brother's plan must have been well thought out."

Lu Ya's tone was choked.

He had a back-up plan. He originally thought of this plan ten days ago by sending Ning Zhongzi away in order to get an early rest.

But now that the matter has come to this, he can't escape his involvement, so he can only smile.

"I have my own way."

…

Next.

The two of them came to the newly built main city of Qingluan City.

The location is right where the wedding ceremony was held ten days ago.

Ten feet along the cliff edge of Fukong Mountain, tall rows of bamboo shops were built, with a total of thirty units in the initial stage.

Each shop has three floors, with front and rear openings. Each floor is two to three feet tall, and the total height is ten feet, which is much higher than a residential building.

The decoration in bamboo green and vermilion colors, bathed in the warm glow of the morning sun, is antique and spectacular.

The shop in the middle is particularly wide and tall.

It covers an area of ​​dozens of acres, with hundreds of rooms on the third floor, dozens of large and small private rooms on the second floor, and the lobby on the first floor. In summer, it specializes in barbecue fairy beer, and in winter, it specializes in hot pot rice brewing. There is also a huge bonfire in front of the door.

square.

According to Ning Zhongzi, this is the self-operated food complex of Zhuquan Sect, named——

Yuelai Inn!

Lu Ya felt like he had heard this name somewhere.

"Yelai Inn...who named it?"

"Isn't it caused by senior brother?"

"Have I ever had sex?"

"Senior brother, he was in a daze. He got up during the break."

"Do you count?"

"I think there is nothing wrong with what senior brother said."

"..."

Lu Ya's tone was choked.

This woman has a future.

Later, Ning Zhongzi took Lu Ya into the Yuelai Inn and met the three managers of the inn.

A middle-aged woman with gorgeous clothes and bone-cut eyes.

A young man with a slight build and unyielding eyes.

A local woman.

Ning Zhongzi introduced in turn:

"This is Lu Ya, the sword-bearing elder of our sect, Yun Xiangyu, the shopkeeper of the inn, Yuan Zhou, the head chef, and Aunt Xinghua, the logistics manager."

Lu Ya gnawed on the crispy melon.

A quick glance revealed that the Yeyan girl was a one-star immortal master, the fat man was a seven-star immortal monarch, and Aunt Xinghua was a famous shrew in Qingquan Village.

It seems that Ning Zhongzi spent a lot of money to invite him.

"Thank you for your hard work."

The three of them had heard about Lu Ya's deeds for a long time, and had tried his protective bamboo slices and seasonings. At this moment, their faces looked respectful, and they bowed together and said:

"I met Elder Lu."

On the seat next to the three of them, there was a large plate of shimmering egg fried rice.

Yun Xiangyu glanced at Lu Ya and saw that he was a handsome young man with a smile on his face.

"Please also ask Elder Lu to taste it."

The steaming golden egg fried rice is served in a white porcelain plate and spread into a golden sheet.

The eggs and the aroma of heated rice are mixed together, and the eggs are all wrapped around the rice. The rice grains are separated, and the grains are golden, and they are piled together loosely, just like the golden rice harvested in autumn.

This is a recipe written by Lu Ya.

Inspired by a certain book, movie or animation in a previous life, it is paired with seasonings carefully made by Ning Zhongzi according to his full-level recipe.

Lu Ya had a huge appetite and pretended to be casual, but in fact he ate it thoroughly.

The three of them looked at him nervously.

"Well, that's good. Young man, you have great ideas. Learn how to do it from me... Ahem, forget it. You can also teach yourself. I'm optimistic about you."

A man with short hands and a soft mouth, Lu Ya praised this young man named Yuan Zhou lavishly.

Speaking of being a young man, Yuan Zhou is over a thousand years old and is the Seven Star Immortal Lord.

It is said that he is an abandoned disciple of a certain sect who made alchemy, but his ambition is not in alchemy, but in cooking.

Being praised by Lu Ya, Yuan Zhou didn't look happy and raised his hands again.

"Thanks to Elder Lu for the seasoning and blessing, but I always feel that something is missing, so I would like to ask the elder to give me some pointers."

Lu Ya nodded.

This guy is very humble and very understanding.

"Technically speaking, your cooking skills are impeccable, but if you don't have a soul, you still need to put more emotion into the food, so that it makes people eat it with a sad feeling. Do you understand?"

"The younger generation is less talented and less knowledgeable, so he can't understand it yet."

"take it easy."

"yes."

Sad**?

Looking at Lu Ya's slender and straight back, Yuan Zhou thought of his status as a Taoist monk and could not help but fall into deep thought.

Walk out of Yuelai Inn.

The two of them walked all the way north towards the martial arts arena built by the Wine Fox Fairy.

Along the way, Ning Zhongzi continued to make reports.

"Currently, the meals cooked by the inn are free for the immortals, and they have not received any immortals yet."

Lu Ya frowned.

"Did you go to Dongfu City to promote it?"

"I did it, but the effect was not obvious."

"The current city construction plan is very attractive to the refugees, but our spiritual animals need to be slaughtered for half a year, and the Fairy Valley will take at least two months to mature. It is not very attractive to the scattered immortals yet."

Lu Ya heard the trouble.

"In other words, the inn cannot make a profit, and our resources will not last for two months. If there is no additional plan, Qingluan City will close down early in one month."

Ning Zhongzi nodded.

"exactly."

Only then did Lu Ya realize that his casual plan was too far-fetched and it was simply unrealistic to launch satellites quickly.

But the plan has been implemented and there is no turning back.

Lu Ya was not afraid either.

"In short, we need to get the immortal business up and running as soon as possible. Only when it is profitable can it develop."

"Please give me some advice, senior brother."
Chapter completed!
