Chapter 379: Chapter 290: Returning Home in Glory_1
Qing Nu did not answer, and Chen Mobai then called Yan Bingxuan.
Since it was agreed last year that everyone would not return, Yan Bingxuan did not return to Red Sandstone City either. She dedicated herself to enhancing her Ice Spirit Root at the Nature Studies Academy.
However, there was good news. Her close friend, class president Mo Simin, had returned. Although Chen Mobai was only somewhat familiar with her, she was at least someone he knew.
After greeting Hua Zijing and handing the student council matters to her, Chen Mobai bought a plane ticket overnight and returned to Red Sandstone City.
Wu Shangru had already arranged everything, and when the City Lord of Red Sandstone City learned that Chen Mobai was transferring his household registration back, he personally came to witness the contract transfer between the two.
The City Lord of Red Sandstone City, named Qin Baipeng, was a graduate of the Heavenly Book Academy. He had a refined appearance, bright eyes, and his upright posture gave people a feeling of strength and rectitude.
“After achieving in your cultivation, you still want to return to your hometown, you will become the second True Red Robe Cultivator.”
After witnessing Chen Mobai and Wu Shangru sign the two contracts, Qin Baipeng spoke with satisfaction.
“I am honored to meet the City Lord. I wonder if the right to use this industrial land can be renewed?”
The land for the Heavenly Talisman Factory was allocated to the True Cultivator Wu Shangru by the Immortal Sect of Red Sandstone City. In four years, Chen Mobai would officially obtain the factory. Due to the change in ownership of the land, the use right of this land is automatically voided.
It requires Chen Mobai’s name to renew a land use agreement with the government of the Immortal Sect of Red Sandstone City.
“No problem, once you transfer your household registration back, I will immediately designate this land in your name.”
Qin Baipeng was a decisive man who promptly clarified matters.
“Can I then transfer my household registration out?”
Wu Shangru immediately asked, receiving a negative nod from Qin Baipeng.
“We can spare a little time. Little Chen still needs to study at Crimson City for four years before graduating. When he transfers his household registration back, you can then transfer out. You already work there, so four years won’t matter much.”
Wu Shangru had already anticipated this. He planned to ask the two Gold Core Cultivators for help if Qin Baipeng indeed refused.
Although he now had a confirmation and felt somewhat disappointed about waiting for another four years.
“In fact, I can transfer my household registration back now if that’s okay.”
Seeing Wu Shangru sigh, Chen Mobai felt a bit embarrassed, after all, he was getting the Talisman Brush Factory which Wu Shangru had managed diligently for fifty years. He proposed his idea.
“Oh, if that’s the case, it would certainly be best.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Baipeng burst into laughter.
There is an Immortal Sect rule that after enrolling in a local university, students can choose whether to transfer their household registration based on their willingness.
When Chen Mobai enrolled, he chose this option wanting to experience life as a resident of Great Heaven City.
Since returning now has such benefits, he decided it’s better to return early and help Wu Shangru.
Sure enough, when he expressed this, all three present were overjoyed.
To avoid delay, Qin Baipeng personally helped Chen Mobai with the procedures to transfer his household registration. On receiving the reply from Red Sandstone City, Crimson City also agreed without any delay.
“That’s how it is in Great Heaven City. For those who want to move out, they barely do any review. But for those moving in, unless they are students of the Daoist Academy with rules set by the Immortal Sect, they will almost examine the past three generations.”
After Chen Mobai’s change of household registration had been completed, Qin Baipeng said the above with a touch of mockery, and then also approved the transfer of Wu Shangru’s household registration.
“My Taoist partner is a resident of Huayang City. If it weren’t for your blockade, I would have already changed my household registration there.”
To this, Wu Shangru complained a bit. If it hadn’t been for Qin Baipeng’s obstruction for all these years, he would have already left Red Sandstone City.
“With the wealth you have today, all thanks to the support of the Immortal Sect of Red Sandstone City. Now that you have reached a high cultivation level, you want to take your tens of millions of assets and leave with a clap of your hands. It’s not that easy.”
Qin Baipeng was of a strong character and didn’t mince his words.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Wu Shangru didn’t comment but gave a reluctant smile.
“Ensure a smooth transition of the Heavenly Talisman Brush Factory, otherwise, even if you go to Huayang City, I can influence your reputation.”
The three of them had a meal together, then Qin Baipeng left after advising Wu Shangru. He didn’t need to say that as Wu Shangru would ensure it anyway.
In the end, on this star, all cultivators are bound to the Immortal Sect.
In the following days, Chen Mobai followed Wu Shangru to familiarize himself with the operation of the Heavenly Talisman Brush Factory.
He finally got a look at the fully automated talisman ink production equipment he had been dreaming of. As long as the raw materials are fed and the machine is operated by the staff, high-quality talisman ink, nearly impurity-free, can be obtained after a certain period.
There are three such devices in the entire factory, all left for Chen Mobai by Wu Shangru.
Besides the talisman ink machine, there are also paper making machines and printing machines.
Chen Mobai even found a device for making talisman brushes.
However, according to Wu Shangru, this machine was a second-hand product he had acquired and could only produce Rank-1 Talisman Brushes.
