Chapter 305.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground shook violently, one after another.
The ones that created this kind of commotion were clearly a dozen or so organ puppets!
Each organ puppet was ten feet tall, their entire body was wrapped in iron, and their left and right hands each held a large meteor hammer as they rampaged through the Flying Immortal City.
Destroying every building in sight!
These organ puppets were infinitely powerful, and often a stone house would be reduced to rubble with a single swing of the hammer.
The demolition efficiency was so high that it could make their counterparts in the Earth Realm look at themselves in awe.
Wang Dust retracted his gaze.
The place where he was at the moment was located in the southern outskirts of Flying Immortal City.
This open area was occupied by countless large and small tents.
And those living in the tents were the original residents of Flying Immortal City.
Now their homes were being destroyed at an alarming rate, ceasing to exist in the blink of an eye.
However, these cultivators were neither angry nor felt sad, as they all came together and had a lively discussion around the campfire.
Wang Dust was among them.
He had been enchanting himself with the Hidden God Technique, suppressing his breath to the ninth level of Qi Practicing.
This way, he would not be alienated from other Qi Practicing cultivators, nor would he be underestimated.
The balance was just right.
A red-faced cultivator took a sip of wine and asked smilingly, “Fellow Daoist He, how much compensation did you take today?”
The one he named for questioning was an old cultivator with gray hair, the latter smiled bitterly and said, “My family of five, counting the heads plus the original house, gave Zhang a new deed of four points.”
The red-faced cultivator said, “That’s pretty good too.”
Old cultivator bitter face: “But my son and daughter-in-law want to go to other immortal city, this new deed can only be offset by two hundred lower spirit, a lot of loss ah.”
The red-faced cultivator was unimpressed: “Two hundred Xi Ling is very good!”
The beast tide that broke out a few days ago, while causing great trauma to Flying Immortal City, also scared many surviving cultivators.
Many were planning to move to other safer places.
Others, on the other hand, were unwilling to live under the White Tiger Sect’s rule.
Three days ago, the White Tiger Sect widely distributed a public notice, bluntly designating Flying Immortal City as their new residence.
In this notice, the White Tiger Sect stated that it would rebuild Flying Immortal City, not only by constructing a city wall, but also by arranging a city guard formation to defend against attacks from demonic beasts and evil spirits.
Therefore, the White Tiger Sect would have to requisition all of the owner’s houses in the city!
As the saying goes, the White Tiger Sect can’t twist the big leg, the White Tiger Sect held the aftermath of repelling the beast tide and the benevolence, even if the cultivators in the Flying Immortal City had grievances in their hearts, none of them dared to jump out and oppose it.
The twelve magic treasure flying ships moored outside the city were enough to suppress all disobedience!
However, the White Tiger Sect, which had an absolute advantage, did not go too far.
The houses in the city that they expropriated were given compensation based on area and headcount.
One head counts as three percent of the land, the old cultivator’s family of five is one point and five percent of the compensation, plus the original two points and five percent of the land of his own family, so he gave Zhang four points of the new deed.
When the reconstruction of Flying Immortal City is completed, he can use this new deed to draw lots to get a new house with a four-percent land area.
The new deed was the new house contract.
The exchange was both a new house and an enlarged area, which was why the red-faced cultivator said it was great.
The problem was that the old cultivator’s family wanted to sell the house and leave Flying Immortal City, so according to the rules set by the White Tiger Sect, this new deed in his hand could only be exchanged for two hundred lower spirits.
It’s quite a bit lower than the original market price of the old house.
Of course after the beast tide, even if the White Tiger Sect didn’t operate like this, the price of the house in the city was bound to drop dramatically.
Therefore, it is difficult to say whether or not they have suffered a loss.
In this regard, Wang Dust only wanted to say: White Tiger can really play!
The old cultivator had just drank half a gourd of wine and was also a bit drunk, and after being disliked by the red-faced cultivator, he immediately pulled out a deed paper from his storage bag, “Four points for a new deed, three hundred and fifty lower spirits, whoever wants it will take it!”
As a result, everyone looked at each other in dismay, and not a single person opened their mouths.
The reason was simple, quite a few people present had also divided the new deed.
And like the old cultivator, those who wanted to leave Flying Immortal City abounded, so who would still be willing to shell out spirit stones into their hands.
Seeing that everyone didn’t react, the old cultivator gritted his teeth, “Three hundred, three hundred spirit stones and I’ll sell it!”
His family was determined to leave, and definitely wouldn’t take the new house in the city.
This new deed as long as it was a little higher than the direct exchange price, he would sell it!
“No one wants it even for three hundred?”
The old cultivator’s eyes turned around and showed disappointment, “Forget it, then I’d better ……”
“Give it to me.”
It was at this time that Wang Dust opened his mouth, “Three hundred Spirit Stones will take it.”
“Good!”
The old cultivator was instantly delighted and busily handed the new deed to Wang Dust, “Here you go!”
The new deed was to recognize the deed but not the person, as long as one held this deed one could cast lots to choose a house, allowing free trade.
He was afraid that Wang Dust would back out and almost shoved it into the latter’s hands.
Wang Dust didn’t have any intention of backing out and took out three hundred Xi Ling to the other party.
Wang Dust’s plan was to find a reliable team in Flying Immortal City to travel to the Western Sea Spirit Region by the beginning of spring next year.
Even if everything went well, he would have to stay here for almost three months.
The original Flying Immortal City was a chaotic mix of fish and dragons, which Wang Chuan disliked, so he chose to open a cave and dig a tunnel in the wild, building himself a shelter.
Now the cave was destroyed, and constantly facing the threat of demonic beasts, moved to the city to live instead became a good choice.
Of course, it had to be the newly built Flying Immortal City of the White Tiger Sect, which was protected by city walls and great formations!
Wang Chen didn’t intend to live there for a long time, so naturally he didn’t have the concerns of other cultivators.
Moreover, Wang Chen felt that although the people were currently in a state of panic and a large number of cultivators wanted to leave the place.
But once the new city was built and the situation stabilized, the prices in the city would inevitably rise.
Then, if he took off his hands before leaving, he would still be able to make a profit.
Although it was said that his idea might not be correct, but for a few hundred spirit stones, Wang Chen could afford to play.
He even wanted to play big: “Any of you who still want to offer, I’ll acquire them all at this price!”
Alone in a foreign land as a speculator, Wang Dust had only been a house slave in his previous life, and this time he wanted to turn over as a landlord!
“I’m out to you!”
“Me, mine!”
“And me.”
As soon as Wang Dust’s words fell, the few cultivators next to him immediately rushed to trade with him.
Wang Dust came to the rescue and acquired all of these new deeds at a 50% premium to the base exchange price.
He had earned a lot of spirit stones by selling talismans, so even if he lost them all, it wouldn’t be a big problem.
As a result, the news that Wang Chen had purchased the new deeds at a “high price” quickly spread throughout the tented camp.
Many cultivators came with new deeds to sell them to him.
Wang Chen purchased hundreds of new deeds in one go, and only stopped when the spirit stones in his storage bag were almost used up.
During this process, some cultivators who originally wanted to sell suddenly changed their minds.
They put away their new deeds, and a few of them even asked others to buy them privately.
Wang Dust had unintentionally played out a small speculation group!
