Chapter 1690: 1690
The lobbyist arrived faster than Zhang Tie could imagine .
Zhang Tie didn't even enter his room in the Flyingdragon Manor . When Zhang Tie, Jiang Ruoxin, and Ji Yuelan were leaving Flyingdragon Manor with Liu Yong and Liu Meng, they saw an aged, gentle immortal general with elegant bead getting off his flying lizard and was asking a butler of the manor about something at the entrance .
"Has Head Huang's group from Heavenly Square City of Nine Heavens Big Domain arrived here?"
"Yes; they have arrived just now . . . " Watching the silver dragon pattern of 8 threads on the old man's wristbands, the butler almost bowed his head to the ground .
"Head Huang is my old friend . Quick, show me the way . . . "
"Yes, sir; please come with me . . . "
When that visitor encountered Zhang Tie's group of 5, he revealed a smile at them . Zhang Tie also nodded towards him . After that, they passed by each other silently .
After leaving Flyingdragon Manor, Liu Yong whispered, "Ah, that man . . . "
"Hahaha, he's a friend of Head Huang . He must be paying a visit to his old friend!" Zhang Tie replied with a smile .
"How do you solve the problem?" Ji Yuelan continued to care about the housing .
Zhang Tie smiled as he pointed at that village on the opposite of the river, saying, "It's not far from Flyingdragon Manor . We will know it right away over there if something happens here . Let's go to that town and renovate a house!"
"You can renovate a house?" Jiang Ruoxin asked as he took an amazed look at Zhang Tie . If Zhang Tie said he could kill people, the two women would never doubt him; however, it was really unbelievable that he could renovate a house . Even Liu brothers watched Zhang Tie in an unimaginable way .
"You will see it!" Zhang Tie smiled . After exchanging a glance with each other, Liu brothers and the two women all became curious as they urged to go there with Zhang Tie .
However, Zhang Tie didn't feel strange about their response; because the professions in Motian Realm were sharply different than those in the world where he came from . There was no coal or petroleum in Motian Realm; neither could steam engines or powerful machines be invented here . Perhaps people here didn't think about developing those things which appeared useless . Generally, there was no common ground between engineers, common workers and immortal generals . By contrast, rune instrument master shared common grounds with engineers, common workers and knights in Taixia Country . At the low level, rune instrument masters would make a lot of things that were closely related to common lives . Even a rune instrument master was not a professional engineer, after promoting to an immortal craftsman, a rune instrument master could almost make everything that he saw using metals . On this occasion, it was a piece of cake for an immortal craftsman to act as an engineer and renovate a house .
After passing by the river, the group of five came straight to the village along the flagstone pavement on the riverside .
After staying with each other and executing tasks for so many days on the airboat, those women were getting along well with each other and almost became good sisters . Previously, Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan wanted to call Leng Manxue to go together with them; however, they remembered that Leng Manxue had already left Flyingdragon Manor the moment she arrived .
With over 600 households, this village was full of apricot blossoms . There was a large apricot wood on the hillside on one side . As it was close to Dragon Emperor City, villagers lived well . There was even a small shrine in the village . On the side neighboring an avenue of Dragon Emperor City, there were some hostels for travelers from all walks of life . Across the village, there were 20-30 households which looked nice . Outside the village, some courtyards looked pretty nice; those who lived in there might not be local villagers . After circling around the village for a while, the group of 5 focused on a new courtyard .
Being built on the riverside, that courtyard in shape of the Chinese character "目" covered over 2,000 square meters . It was over 600 m away from the public road towards Dragon Emperor City, with an apricot wood in between . Therefore, it looked pretty tranquil . Two bluestone trails were connected to the village and the public road .
After knocking at the gate, they waited there for half a minute before an old servant opened it . He took a look at the group of 5 . When he noticed their special costumes of the immortal palace, the old servant instantly lowered his body to show his respect .
After acknowledging their purpose, the old servant became stunned for a second as his smile became more passionate . He then hurriedly invited them in and called out the slightly fat master in brilliant silk clothes .
"Are you introduced by Head Huo of the village's shrine?" the master asked them out of curiosity .
"No!" Zhang Tie replied as he shook his head with a smile .
"Ah? If you're not introduced by Head Huo, how did you know I was going to sell this house?" the master asked as he became more curious .
"It's a coincidence . We've just arrived at Dragon Emperor City today and are living in Flyingdragon Manor . Because it's a bit inconvenient over there, we would like to buy a courtyard in the nearby . As your courtyard looks decent and is tranquil in the surroundings, we especially came here to ask whether you want to sell it or not!" Zhang Tie talked with the owner of this house as Ji Yuelan, Jiang Ruoxin and Liu brothers watched from aside .
The master took a look at Zhang Tie, then Jiang Ruoxin, Ji Yuelan and Liu brothers, then Zhang Tie again as he instantly understood it and nodded hurriedly, "It's true; it's true . I've been told that many immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace came back from other domains these days, you must feel inconvenient living with the other immortal generals as you have wives and concubine and guards . However, my courtyard has recently been built at a high cost . I've just started living in it . Previously, it was built by my son for me . However, in the late couple of months, I urgently needed money because of business; otherwise, I would not sell it . Look at the furniture in the house, they're all of the top quality . I don't plan to remove these pieces of furniture anymore . The pond, the rockery and the woods took me too much time and money . . . "
Ji Yuelan and Liu brothers didn't even change their face when they heard the master's words . Ji Yuelan even glanced at Jiang Ruoxin . Jiang Ruoxin even pinched Ji Yuelan stealthily with a blush .
"It's okay, how much do you want?"
After watching Zhang Tie for a while, the master gritted his teeth before answering, "At least 620 purple crystal coins . . . "
Zhang Tie directly took out an earth element crystal and put it on the table, saying, "I've not brought so many purple crystal coins . You must have seen the world and know what is this . This item is far more valuable than 620 purple crystal coins . How about exchanging your house with this element crystal?"
Goggling at the element crystal on the table, the master screamed, "Are you . . . are you sure?"
"Sure . . . but I need you to move out as soon as possible . We will live in tonight . As it's not far away from Dragon Emperor City, you could have someone take you to the downtown to your son . Is there any problem?"
"No problem, no problem . I could rent a flying lizard from the hostel on the roadside . If not, I could live in the hostel for one night . . . "
"That's the deal . . . " Zhang Tie smiled as he gave the earth element crystal to that master . . .
. . .
Only after 10 minutes, an old servant of that master had already rent a flying-lizard vehicle and pulled over outside the gate of the courtyard . After loading on the master and some packages that his two servants had prepared, he drove away happily .
