"Da Zui, Da Yang! Come here and tell me, what's the best business to do in this town?" unexpected by the two personal servants of his, Zhang Wu Ji first question after coming out from his sudden seclusion is about where to make money?
"What happened to Third Young Master? Had the beating from Li's too much until he becomes nuts?" the two servants are puzzled with his changes, but after thinking for a while, they produced two different answers.
"I think that the best way to earn money is by selling pills. Young master, even our Zhang's apothecary only has Wound Mending Pill and Meridian Soothing Pill for sale, each of them cost 10 Gold Coins if they purchase them from our family shop." Zhang Da Zui answered. But he received a scolding from Zhang Da Yang soon before he answered.
"Stupid! Do you know how much is the cost our family needs to bear to produce the ingredients to the Pill Master? We only earn half of them at the end of the day. Young master, I think selling treasures is the best business in our Li Jiang Town."
"I saw one of the cultivator coming back with a cultivator treasure he calls [Black Iron Sword] when he sold them through the small auctioneer hall, it actually worth 500 Gold Coins! If our Young Master can explore the ruins to... Oh..." Zhang Da Yang almost completed his sentence before he becomes speechless.
If your Young Master is yet to be a cultivator, how can he explore the ruins that were filled with many strong beasts? When he thought about what he just said, he felt like he was twice dumber than Da Zui.
"Since only pill business is likely to earn the best profit, I will focus on the path to produce pills first. Anyway, that's what I have for now." he hesitates, but chosen to focus in Pill Concoction for now in order to earn more money.
As he thinks back, during the previous four days within the Pill Making Room, he actually spends almost all of his time to upgrade. At first, he does that to the furniture inside of the room, before noticing that there was nothing special he can expect from them.
On and off, he repeated the same towards all furniture inside of the room. Before he went out of the room on the fourth day, he kept his final attempt at the Pill Cauldron, which he has the highest hope on it.
Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +1
Concoction Success Rate: 23%
Durability: 15/15
-
Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +2
Concoction Success Rate: 24%
Durability: 17/17
-
Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +3
Concoction Success Rate: 25%
Durability: 19/19
-
Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +4
Concoction Success Rate: 25%
Durability: 21/21
After four tries, the success rate finally reaches 25%, but it wasn't enough for him because the 25% rate means his production will be one success in every four tries. If this is what going to happen, what money can he earn?
Which is why, he took a complete rest, about ten minutes before he went out from the room to attempt for the +5 upgrade. And when the results came out, it shocks him.
Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +5
Concoction Success Rate: 30%
Durability: 25/25
Special: 50% of the chances to double the amount of pill concocted when using this cauldron
"What! 50% chances to double the amount of pill concocted? This means it was like a 100% bonus reward by concocting pills regularly." Zhang Wu Ji jumped in happiness when he saw such an amazing ability appeared on the +5 Pill Cauldron.
"I have 100 gold coins in hand, so let us go to the botanist hall to purchase some good quality herbs before we continued." Zhang Wu Ji decides to take the thing seriously. If he takes his own sweet time to delay things instead, It might end up as a useless approach.
"Chances only came to those who know how to take it. Victory loves preparation. If I want to do this, let's start it and not delay it further." the servants take the lead as the trio went to the Botanist Hall.
Inside here, almost a hundred different plants and flowers with various medicinal properties are up for sale. As for those major in botanist profession, high-quality seeds are available for purchase as well.
But when he steps inside the hall, the reaction he received is out of ordinary. If one would describe, their services towards the others are like a servant towards their master, but towards Zhang Wu Ji, it was like the there is an unresolvable blood feud between the Botanist Hall and him.
"Why all of them looking at me like I kill their nine generations?" Zhang Wu Ji asked, but when his servants heard about his sentence, they were completely speechless!
"Third Young Master, it was a blessing that your memories are so bad and forgetful." Da Yang speaks in his mind. But instead, Da Zui explains the reason for all these malicious intent.
"Young master, you... Previously disturb the young lady belonged to the Vice Hall Master's family... You incite arson against two of their greenhouses, causing the Botanist Hall to lost a considerable amount of resources... And... And... You bought the people from the underground society with money to incite trouble in their hall, and you're still standing at the spot when you did your deeds..." Da Zui explanation is so detailed that he misses nothing in his words.
"I was an asshole of this degree?" Zhang Wu Ji cannot believe the previous Wu Ji is such a bastard!
"Not only that... The street vendors we saw yesterday, you burn their stall one by one every day before you hired the carpenters to build them a new stall, those designs are all your choice..." Da Zui continued, where his words completely made Zhang Wu Ji speechless.
"No wonder the street look like crap!"
"No wonder they retreated like they saw the God of Misfortune when I touch the product they sell."
"Zhang Wu Ji, you're a disgrace to the name Wu Ji!" the current Zhang Wu Ji is completely speechless against his good deeds done before he transmigrates into this body. In fact, he was the one to suffer the consequences because of his own trouble. [1]
"How do I salvage the situation now..." the current Zhang Wu Ji is completely speechless at this moment. He considered asking for forgiveness or act as nothing happened, but no matter how he chooses, it still will end with creating more misunderstanding.
"Who calls this bugger to actually disturb other people's young lady and even burn people's greenhouse! Two greenhouses on top of that!" Zhang Wu Ji almost curses and slap himself in the moment of anger.
"Da Yang, go and purchase some medicinal seed, and tell them this Third Young Master has repented. I will prove this with my action, and not words." Zhang Wu Ji finished his sentence before he turned around and left.
But before he managed to do so, a young lady also in her fifteenth show up before him.
"You're... Tell me I'm not as bad luck as this!" he asked in a very polite way while praying to the god this lady isn't the person previous Zhang Wu Ji disturbed, but the luck says otherwise.
"PIAK!" a slap came from the left and ends from the right. On the face of this young master, a print of a palm with five distinct lines can be seen clearly on his fair skin.
"I've been wanted to do this for so long! How dare you grabbed my breast and pinch my XXX when you're at it!" her anger blows up to the highest temperature as she raised her leg to kick Zhang Wu Ji.
In retaliation, Zhang Wu Ji took his own leg up as well, trying to compete with her in raw strength, but when they clashed against each another, Zhang Wu Ji was thrown backward and destroyed another wooden counter not too far from where they engaged in a fight.
"What the hell! A kick from a lady made me thrown off like a blind arrow!" Zhang Wu Ji cursed in his heart. How would he know that between a trash Martial Body like his against a proper Martial Body like the lady, is between heaven and pig hole? [2]
"Young Master!" Da Zui quickly went to his master and support him to stand up, but no matter how it looks, Zhang Wu Ji is seriously injured in this exchange. As for Da Yang, he managed to purchase five seeds of two different plants and finished the 100 Gold Coins in a flash.
"Pass him a Wound Mending Pill before he left the Botanist Hall!" the young lady ordered the servant before she left.
Not wanting to left a bad impression from this situation, Zhang Wu Ji speaks.
"Keep back the Wound Mending Pill you have. I'm not that cheap to use those worthless pills you guys made," he said that! Unknown to himself, such a word is actually more destructive than the immoral behavior he has shown towards the young lady!
He was literally looking for trouble with all the Pill Masters standing in the Botanist Hall at this moment!
Da Zui and Da Yang looked at their young master and was turned into a statue for not knowing what can they do at this moment. It won't be impossible for him to lost his life here at this moment, seeing what kind of words he just muttered from his mouth!
"What a strong word you got there. Can you show me what kind of magical pill if you dare to deem the Wound Mending Pill we have and created is worthless?" an angered Pill Master step forward to dare this youngster to uphold his words.
"Magical Pills? Peh!" [3]
"Da Zui, Da Yang, go back to our manor and bring me the Pill Cauldron! I will show these frog under the well what do my words mean!" he bellowed. Listening to his word, the two treated the word as [Go back and bring some support] as they left in a hurry.
"If you want to see what is magical, provide me with a set of the best ingredients to concoct the Wound Mending Pills!" since he already challenged everyone within the hall that their pills are worthless in their eyes, why not he continues to push it further? With his upgrade, it was easy for him to outdo all of them behind.
"Bullshit! Everyone knows that a better quality will always create a better quality Wound Mending Pills. If you're so confident, then make it with the most basic ingredients!" another Pill Master step up from not able to hold his anger any longer.
"Fine! Then give me the worst quality ingredients for the Wound Mending Pill! I will make all of you speechless through action and not words!" Zhang Wu Ji replied. In his mind, he was already angered by them anyway, why not make thing worst and create more trouble?
"If I don't do this, my high quality Wound Mending Pill with not worth the higher price I'm going to set!" he thought in his mind.
Half an hour later, Da Yang and Da Zui returned with the Pill Cauldron. But following them from behind is twenty more servants of their Zhang's Family, with two of them stronger than everyone presents in the hall.
"Why are you taking more people here? The damn Pill Cauldron is very light!" Zhang Wu Ji who didn't anticipates how tense is the situation scolds his two servants to bring so many people over.
"Alright, we should get ready to concoct now." taking two pieces of firestones and ignites them like a flint, he placed them below the cauldron to starts heating the cauldron.
Through a simple nice looking show, he silently upgrades the two ingredients that supposed to be put inside the cauldron first, before he placed them within.
Blood Stopping Grass +1
Recovery: 1 point worth of life source
Quality: Basic
Healing Flower +1
Recovery: 1 point worth of life source
Quality: Basic
"Look at how fresh the Blood Stopping Grass and the Healing Flower! I remembered they were almost withered and dried when it was presented to the debauchee!"
"Yes, that's impossible! But what he throws inside is a proper quality ingredient!" the crowd begin to discuss about the ingredients and what magic did he use to make these ingredient become fresh once again. Even as a cultivator of a third Tier might not able to do such a feat.
But as he followed the step one after another, the spectators were greeted with another surprise.
Calming Tree Extract +1
Effect: 1.2 points worth of spirit essence
Quality: Basic
When all the ingredients are within the cauldron now, their answer to his words will be completely answered by the pill concocted within the cauldron.
The moment the procedural steps were completed, Zhang Wu Ji placed his hand inside to see how many pills were created this time. As he clawed his way to the bottom, he calculates the number of pills in his grasp.
"No way!"
"A Fu*king two pills?" he was shocked by the results. It seems that the special effect did not happen at his attempt. But after a moment of consideration, he agreed with the conclusion.
In his mind, the fact the cauldron can produce double the number of pills in a batch through chances is something cannot be exposed to the public.
When he opened his fist to the public, two Wound Mending Pill is revealed to the public. Although the quality of the pill isn't as high as expected, nonetheless, it was still a better quality than those the Pill Master tries to take out.
Wound Mending Pill +1
Recovery: 6.5 point worth of life source
Quality: Basic
"It seems that the end product after using the upgraded materials will inherit the upgrade effects." Zhang Wu Ji did not wait too long but swallow the two pills into his mouth. After all, he was an injured person at this moment.
But the fact he could produce two slightly higher quality Wound Mending Pill is already an amazing feat added that he was using those close to expiry ingredients.
In the mind of everyone present, if they could learn how to rejuvenate the ingredient before using, how good? They will no longer need to face the consequences of wasting their ingredients any longer.
"I hope this results answered your questions regarding my impudence to says that your Wound Mending Pill quality is lesser than my own creation." Zhang Wu Ji did not idly stand there while listening to the other's discussion.
In fact, he tried to promote his own product through this little incident, in hope of bringing more business to their family. It was a success at the end of the day before the people from Zhang's left the Botanist Hall.
Back to their manor, Zhang Wu Ji uses the reason of injured to missed their family dinner, before he took a short rest to rejuvenate his body.
As for his body condition at this moment, upgrading five items before taking a short nap is his limit, with fifteen upgrade chances in one day.
After waking up from the rest, he took our the two small pouches with five seeds in each of them.
Violet Meridian Seed
Usage: planted and grown to Violet Meridian Grass when matures.
Yield: two stalks on maturity. One to two seeds produced when the root withers and dies.
Quality: Basic
Soothing Flower Seed
Usage: planted and grown to Soothing Flower when the bulb blooms.
Yield: one bulb each seed. Based on luck, the Soothing Flower will produce seeds if the flower is allowed to withers.
Quality: Basic
Looking at the two kinds of seeds, Zhang Wu Ji tried to upgrade them before starting. But unfortunately, his effort failed. It gave him no response from taking the choice to upgrade.
"Does this means my ability is too low for now?" he questioned himself after trying the same thing for over ten times now. Since it was pointless for him to continue with such a non-productive effort, he decided to plant first and further upgrading them later.
"If I can't upgrade you from the starting point, then I will start from where I could. As a plant, you need not only soil, but water, fertilizer, pest control, human touch, and also shelter! I don't believe I can't make some results out from those when it was applied to you!" Zhang Wu Ji was talking to the two pouches with seeds inside.
"Da Yang, Da Zui! Come here and help me to plant these seeds at the nearest available plot of soil!" Zhang Wu Ji ordered. Minutes later, the two personal servants of his returned with their hand filled with dirt and soil.
"Young master, we found a suitable spot to plant the seeds. Leave it to us!" Da Yang snatched the two pouches and went with Da Zui following behind.
"Well, we're on the right track slightly for now. As for the next step, I will need to begin by strengthening my foundation! I wonder do our house library has." Zhang Wu Ji steps out from his room, and begin to make his way over to the library, which the previous Zhang Wu Ji tried to burn because his father forced him to study.

Do you know how much is the cost our family needs to bear to produce the ingredients to the Pill Master? We only earn half of them at the end of the day. Young master, I think selling treasures is the best business in our Li Jiang Town.""I saw one of the cultivator coming back with a cultivator treasure he calls Black Iron Sword when he sold them through the small auctioneer hall, it actually worth 500 Gold Coins! If our Young Master can explore the ruins to... Oh..." Zhang Da Yang almost completed his sentence before he becomes speechless.If your Young Master is yet to be a cultivator, how can he explore the ruins that were filled with many strong beasts? When he thought about what he just said, he felt like he was twice dumber than Da Zui."Since only pill business is likely to earn the best profit, I will focus on the path to produce pills first. Anyway, that's what I have for now." he hesitates, but chosen to focus in Pill Concoction for now in order to earn more money.As he thinks back, during the previous four days within the Pill Making Room, he actually spends almost all of his time to upgrade. At first, he does that to the furniture inside of the room, before noticing that there was nothing special he can expect from them.On and off, he repeated the same towards all furniture inside of the room. Before he went out of the room on the fourth day, he kept his final attempt at the Pill Cauldron, which he has the highest hope on it.Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +1Concoction Success Rate: 23%Durability: 15/15-Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +2Concoction Success Rate: 24%Durability: 17/17-Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +3Concoction Success Rate: 25%Durability: 19/19-Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +4Concoction Success Rate: 25%Durability: 21/21After four tries, the success rate finally reaches 25%, but it wasn't enough for him because the 25% rate means his production will be one success in every four tries. If this is what going to happen, what money can he earn?Which is why, he took a complete rest, about ten minutes before he went out from the room to attempt for the +5 upgrade. And when the results came out, it shocks him.Basic Brass Pill Cauldron +5Concoction Success Rate: 30%Durability: 25/25Special: 50% of the chances to double the amount of pill concocted when using this cauldron"What! 50% chances to double the amount of pill concocted? This means it was like a 100% bonus reward by concocting pills regularly." Zhang Wu Ji jumped in happiness when he saw such an amazing ability appeared on the +5 Pill Cauldron."I have 100 gold coins in hand, so let us go to the botanist hall to purchase some good quality herbs before we continued." Zhang Wu Ji decides to take the thing seriously. If he takes his own sweet time to delay things instead, It might end up as a useless approach."Chances only came to those who know how to take it. Victory loves preparation. If I want to do this, let's start it and not delay it further." the servants take the lead as the trio went to the Botanist Hall.Inside here, almost a hundred different plants and flowers with various medicinal properties are up for sale. As for those major in botanist profession, high-quality seeds are available for purchase as well.But when he steps inside the hall, the reaction he received is out of ordinary. If one would describe, their services towards the others are like a servant towards their master, but towards Zhang Wu Ji, it was like the there is an unresolvable blood feud between the Botanist Hall and him."Why all of them looking at me like I kill their nine generations?" Zhang Wu Ji asked, but when his servants heard about his sentence, they were completely speechless!"Third Young Master, it was a blessing that your memories are so bad and forgetful." Da Yang speaks in his mind. But instead, Da Zui explains the reason for all these malicious intent."Young master, you... Previously disturb the young lady belonged to the Vice Hall Master's family... You incite arson against two of their greenhouses, causing the Botanist Hall to lost a considerable amount of resources... And... And... You bought the people from the underground society with money to incite trouble in their hall, and you're still standing at the spot when you did your deeds..." Da Zui explanation is so detailed that he misses nothing in his words."I was an asshole of this degree?" Zhang Wu Ji cannot believe the previous Wu Ji is such a bastard!"Not only that... The street vendors we saw yesterday, you burn their stall one by one every day before you hired the carpenters to build them a new stall, those designs are all your choice..." Da Zui continued, where his words completely made Zhang Wu Ji speechless."No wonder the street look like crap!""No wonder they retreated like they saw the God of Misfortune when I touch the product they sell.""Zhang Wu Ji, you're a disgrace to the name Wu Ji!" the current Zhang Wu Ji is completely speechless against his good deeds done before he transmigrates into this body. In fact, he was the one to suffer the consequences because of his own trouble. 1"How do I salvage the situation now..." the current Zhang Wu Ji is completely speechless at this moment. He considered asking for forgiveness or act as nothing happened, but no matter how he chooses, it still will end with creating more misunderstanding."Who calls this bugger to actually disturb other people's young lady and even burn people's greenhouse! Two greenhouses on top of that!" Zhang Wu Ji almost curses and slap himself in the moment of anger."Da Yang, go and purchase some medicinal seed, and tell them this Third Young Master has repented. I will prove this with my action, and not words." Zhang Wu Ji finished his sentence before he turned around and left.But before he managed to do so, a young lady also in her fifteenth show up before him."You're... Tell me I'm not as bad luck as this!" he asked in a very polite way while praying to the god this lady isn't the person previous Zhang Wu Ji disturbed, but the luck says otherwise."PIAK!" a slap came from the left and ends from the right. On the face of this young master, a print of a palm with five distinct lines can be seen clearly on his fair skin."I've been wanted to do this for so long! How dare you grabbed my breast and pinch my XXX when you're at it!" her anger blows up to the highest temperature as she raised her leg to kick Zhang Wu Ji.In retaliation, Zhang Wu Ji took his own leg up as well, trying to compete with her in raw strength, but when they clashed against each another, Zhang Wu Ji was thrown backward and destroyed another wooden counter not too far from where they engaged in a fight."What the hell! A kick from a lady made me thrown off like a blind arrow!" Zhang Wu Ji cursed in his heart. How would he know that between a trash Martial Body like his against a proper Martial Body like the lady, is between heaven and pig hole? 2"Young Master!" Da Zui quickly went to his master and support him to stand up, but no matter how it looks, Zhang Wu Ji is seriously injured in this exchange. As for Da Yang, he managed to purchase five seeds of two different plants and finished the 100 Gold Coins in a flash."Pass him a Wound Mending Pill before he left the Botanist Hall!" the young lady ordered the servant before she left.Not wanting to left a bad impression from this situation, Zhang Wu Ji speaks."Keep back the Wound Mending Pill you have. I'm not that cheap to use those worthless pills you guys made," he said that! Unknown to himself, such a word is actually more destructive than the immoral behavior he has shown towards the young lady!He was literally looking for trouble with all the Pill Masters standing in the Botanist Hall at this moment!Da Zui and Da Yang looked at their young master and was turned into a statue for not knowing what can they do at this moment. It won't be impossible for him to lost his life here at this moment, seeing what kind of words he just muttered from his mouth!"What a strong word you got there. Can you show me what kind of magical pill if you dare to deem the Wound Mending Pill we have and created is worthless?" an angered Pill Master step forward to dare this youngster to uphold his words."Magical Pills? Peh!" 3"Da Zui, Da Yang, go back to our manor and bring me the Pill Cauldron! I will show these frog under the well what do my words mean!" he bellowed. Listening to his word, the two treated the word as Go back and bring some support as they left in a hurry."If you want to see what is magical, provide me with a set of the best ingredients to concoct the Wound Mending Pills!" since he already challenged everyone within the hall that their pills are worthless in their eyes, why not he continues to push it further? With his upgrade, it was easy for him to outdo all of them behind."Bullshit! Everyone knows that a better quality will always create a better quality Wound Mending Pills. If you're so confident, then make it with the most basic ingredients!" another Pill Master step up from not able to hold his anger any longer."Fine! Then give me the worst quality ingredients for the Wound Mending Pill! I will make all of you speechless through action and not words!" Zhang Wu Ji replied. In his mind, he was already angered by them anyway, why not make thing worst and create more trouble?"If I don't do this, my high quality Wound Mending Pill with not worth the higher price I'm going to set!" he thought in his mind.Half an hour later, Da Yang and Da Zui returned with the Pill Cauldron. But following them from behind is twenty more servants of their Zhang's Family, with two of them stronger than everyone presents in the hall."Why are you taking more people here? The damn Pill Cauldron is very light!" Zhang Wu Ji who didn't anticipates how tense is the situation scolds his two servants to bring so many people over."Alright, we should get ready to concoct now." taking two pieces of firestones and ignites them like a flint, he placed them below the cauldron to starts heating the cauldron.Through a simple nice looking show, he silently upgrades the two ingredients that supposed to be put inside the cauldron first, before he placed them within.Blood Stopping Grass +1Recovery: 1 point worth of life sourceQuality: BasicHealing Flower +1Recovery: 1 point worth of life sourceQuality: Basic"Look at how fresh the Blood Stopping Grass and the Healing Flower! I remembered they were almost withered and dried when it was presented to the debauchee!""Yes, that's impossible! But what he throws inside is a proper quality ingredient!" the crowd begin to discuss about the ingredients and what magic did he use to make these ingredient become fresh once again. Even as a cultivator of a third Tier might not able to do such a feat.But as he followed the step one after another, the spectators were greeted with another surprise.Calming Tree Extract +1Effect: 1.2 points worth of spirit essenceQuality: BasicWhen all the ingredients are within the cauldron now, their answer to his words will be completely answered by the pill concocted within the cauldron.The moment the procedural steps were completed, Zhang Wu Ji placed his hand inside to see how many pills were created this time. As he clawed his way to the bottom, he calculates the number of pills in his grasp."No way!""A Fu*king two pills?" he was shocked by the results. It seems that the special effect did not happen at his attempt. But after a moment of consideration, he agreed with the conclusion.In his mind, the fact the cauldron can produce double the number of pills in a batch through chances is something cannot be exposed to the public.When he opened his fist to the public, two Wound Mending Pill is revealed to the public. Although the quality of the pill isn't as high as expected, nonetheless, it was still a better quality than those the Pill Master tries to take out.Wound Mending Pill +1Recovery: 6.5 point worth of life sourceQuality: Basic"It seems that the end product after using the upgraded materials will inherit the upgrade effects." Zhang Wu Ji did not wait too long but swallow the two pills into his mouth. After all, he was an injured person at this moment.But the fact he could produce two slightly higher quality Wound Mending Pill is already an amazing feat added that he was using those close to expiry ingredients.In the mind of everyone present, if they could learn how to rejuvenate the ingredient before using, how good? They will no longer need to face the consequences of wasting their ingredients any longer."I hope this results answered your questions regarding my impudence to says that your Wound Mending Pill quality is lesser than my own creation." Zhang Wu Ji did not idly stand there while listening to the other's discussion.In fact, he tried to promote his own product through this little incident, in hope of bringing more business to their family. It was a success at the end of the day before the people from Zhang's left the Botanist Hall.Back to their manor, Zhang Wu Ji uses the reason of injured to missed their family dinner, before he took a short rest to rejuvenate his body.As for his body condition at this moment, upgrading five items before taking a short nap is his limit, with fifteen upgrade chances in one day.After waking up from the rest, he took our the two small pouches with five seeds in each of them.Violet Meridian SeedUsage: planted and grown to Violet Meridian Grass when matures.Yield: two stalks on maturity. One to two seeds produced when the root withers and dies.Quality: BasicSoothing Flower SeedUsage: planted and grown to Soothing Flower when the bulb blooms.Yield: one bulb each seed. Based on luck, the Soothing Flower will produce seeds if the flower is allowed to withers.Quality: BasicLooking at the two kinds of seeds, Zhang Wu Ji tried to upgrade them before starting. But unfortunately, his effort failed. It gave him no response from taking the choice to upgrade."Does this means my ability is too low for now?" he questioned himself after trying the same thing for over ten times now. Since it was pointless for him to continue with such a non-productive effort, he decided to plant first and further upgrading them later."If I can't upgrade you from the starting point, then I will start from where I could. As a plant, you need not only soil, but water, fertilizer, pest control, human touch, and also shelter! I don't believe I can't make some results out from those when it was applied to you!" Zhang Wu Ji was talking to the two pouches with seeds inside."Da Yang, Da Zui! Come here and help me to plant these seeds at the nearest available plot of soil!" Zhang Wu Ji ordered. Minutes later, the two personal servants of his returned with their hand filled with dirt and soil."Young master, we found a suitable spot to plant the seeds. Leave it to us!" Da Yang snatched the two pouches and went with Da Zui following behind."Well, we're on the right track slightly for now. As for the next step, I will need to begin by strengthening my foundation! I wonder do our house library has." Zhang Wu Ji steps out from his room, and begin to make his way over to the library, which the previous Zhang Wu Ji tried to burn because his father forced him to study.-----1.
