Lu Changsheng inquired Lu Miaoge.
On this trip, he also thought of selling Talismans and buying the heavenly and earthly treasures for Cultivation of the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art.
So he thought of first going to see the Loose Cultivators’ stalls.
“At the junction of the Western District and the Southern District, there are several streets specifically set aside for people to set up stalls and trade freely,”
“Although the items there are cheaper than in the shops, there are many scams, and there’s hardly any chance of getting a good deal by stumbling upon something undervalued,”
“If you’re looking to buy something, it’s still best to make purchases from legitimate shops,”
Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoge guessed Lu Changsheng’s intent and voiced a reminder.
“I’m just curious about this kind of stall setup, want to take a look and gain some experience,”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
He wasn’t holding out hope for any treasures or particularly cheap bargains.
After all, these Loose Cultivators are all too shrewd, having struggled at the bottom, without certain means, how could one expect to find a bargain from their hands.
In the midst of talking, the two returned to the Spiritual Talisman Shop.
“Sister Lu!”
At that moment, a childish voice rang out.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge heard the voice and looked over.
In front of them, a dignified-looking young matron with a graceful figure and full-bodied stature, holding a three- or four-year-old girl in her arms and carrying a lunch box, was walking in their direction.
It was the small girl in the young matron’s arms who was waving to Lu Miaoge and calling out.
“Master,”
This young matron wore a plain goose yellow dress, her black glossy hair arranged in a married woman’s bun, slanted with an ebony hairpin, giving her a demure and graceful appearance.
Upon seeing Lu Miaoge, she also quickened her pace, slightly bowed, and called out softly.
Her face might not be exceptionally beautiful, merely fair, with arched eyebrows, crimson lips and almond eyes, and a pert nose, exuding a mature charm.
But her skin was very white, whether it was the fair complexion of her cheeks or the skin exposed at the neck, all was snowy white and delicate, soft and pliant to the touch.
This creamy white skin, combined with her voluptuous and curvaceous figure, made the young matron look like a ripe peach, giving off a sense of fullness and juiciness.
“Aunt Bai, Nannan, came to deliver a meal to Uncle Zhang,”
Lu Miaoge obviously knew the two, and greeted them with a slight smile and a nod.
She conveyed to Lu Changsheng: “This is Zhang Shan’s wife and daughter; they come to deliver meals to him every day,”
Zhang Shan inside the Spiritual Talisman Shop also saw his wife and child arriving and immediately got up and hurried out.
First, he gave a slight bow to Lu Miaoge and Lu Changsheng nearby, then explained, “Second Master, this is my wife, coming to bring me a meal,”
“No worries,”
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
He knew the latter’s explanation was out of concern that the new co-owner might have objections.
Such matters, of course, he didn’t mind and would not say anything.
It just hadn’t occurred to him that Zhang Shan seemed to be fifty years old,
Yet his wife was not only a Cultivator but also so young, and their child was only three or four years old.
But on second thought, this was quite normal.
Most Cultivators were older when they chose to start a family and have children.
Moreover, although the woman appeared mature and charming, seemingly in her late twenties, her actual age was not necessarily so.
After all, most female Cultivators would buy Youth-Preserving Pills, Beauty-Preserving Pills.
Like Lu Miaoge, she obviously had taken Beauty-Preserving Pills.
Compared to when Lu Changsheng first met her five years ago, she looked almost the same, still retaining the appearance of a twenty-year-old.
This made Lu Changsheng think about buying Beauty-Preserving Pills for his own wives as well.
He practiced the Immortal Beauty Technique, which not only enhanced his charm but also preserved his youthful appearance forever.
But his wives could not, and aside from Lu Miaoyun and Qu Zhenzhen who were able to practice Cultivation, all the others were mortals who would age.
However, thinking of the price of the Beauty-Preserving Pills and the need to give gifts, he would have to give more than ten gifts at once, Lu Changsheng could only temporarily dismiss the idea.
Lu Miaoge didn’t chat much with Zhang Shan either, merely nodding slightly, her expression cool as she led Lu Changsheng to the third floor.
She usually stayed on the third floor, either cultivating and resting or drawing Talismans, rarely on the first floor.
Now, the third floor had an additional person, Lu Changsheng.
However, Lu Miaoge and Lu Changsheng were quite familiar with each other and didn’t mind sharing a room alone.
At this time, Lu Miaoge also told Lu Changsheng that although Zhang Shan was an old employee of the shop, he couldn’t appear too familiar with him.
If they were too close, it would make it difficult to manage later on.
Lu Changsheng naturally understood this principle and nodded in agreement.
Afterward, Lu Miaoge shared with Lu Changsheng some shop matters and management experience.
These were all simple and easy-to-understand experiences, most of which Lu Changsheng already knew.
He had never eaten pork before, but he had seen pigs run.
In his past life under the baptism of big data, he knew quite a bit about the art of managing people.
Of course, knowing is one thing, doing is another matter altogether.
“Sister Miaoge, I used to think you were the kind indifferent to worldly affairs, but I didn’t expect you to know so much. It’s like getting to know you all over again,”
After listening to Lu Miaoge, Lu Changsheng joked with a laugh.
Today he surely saw another side of Lu Miaoge, so the conversation was much less restrained than before.
Hearing this, Lu Miaoge couldn’t help but smile, her beauty blossoming like a celestial flower, captivating.
“I don’t know whether to take your words as a compliment or an insult,”
“But I’ll just assume it’s a compliment,”
With painted brows and eyes, Lu Miaoge said with a soft smile, “Alright, I have to go make Talismans. You can go to the lounge to rest, or cultivate.”
“Normally, there’s not much to do at the shop, and Zhang Shan and the others will notify us if anything comes up,”
Having said so, Lu Miaoge stood up and went to the Talisman Room to focus on Talisman Making.
Lu Changsheng nodded and went to the lounge to rest.
