Chapter 954 Bullying goes too far
Lin Mu suddenly felt enlightened.
The previous depression, preoccupations, and worries were all gone.
If he changes his mind, he can save a lot of spiritual stones just by purchasing the land!
The prices in prosperous areas and ordinary areas are completely different. They are completely different.
The most important thing is that the business of shops in bustling areas is generally very good, and no one is willing to sell them easily. If they want to buy them, they basically have to sell them at a premium.
In ordinary areas, it is much easier.
There are many shop owners who are losing money and are anxious to sell their businesses, but no one may be willing to take over.
These are completely two realms.
The number of people willing to sell in ordinary stores is also much larger.
Naturally, there is more room for choice.
Lin Mu felt extremely relaxed all over. He activated his flying sword and immediately headed to other cities.
Normally, it would take several days for cultivators in the Returning Void Stage to reach the city by flying at full strength, but he only spent most of a day flying there.
The divine consciousness in the late integration stage drives the flying sword, and the flying sword is also a sword in the peerless spiritual treasure realm. Its escape speed is faster than many practitioners in the integration stage.
This was one of the reasons why Lin Mu wanted to come forward in person.
If it were anyone else, time would have been wasted on the road.
It is also impossible to take control of the power when buying land, and it is impossible to make up one's mind on many things at the same time.
He came forward in person, so naturally everything happened as he pleased, whatever suited him.
Arriving at a small town, Lin Mu didn't waste any time. He easily negotiated with the owners of two ordinary shops and bought the land. He also greeted the deputy mayor of the city and then found a group of builders on the spot. Build Feixian Palace.
Of course, there is not even a single person in the Feixian Palace now, let alone a treasure like the Jade Slip.
It was an empty palace, so naturally no one made any plans.
Lin Mu paid a 10% deposit to the leader of this group of builders and agreed that when the Feixian Palace was completed, he would pay the full amount when he came to the city again.
This is a big business, and these construction engineers are very serious about it and do not dare to neglect it at all.
Lin Mu left with peace of mind.
In this city, he only spent a total of two billion spirit stones from purchasing the land to building the Feixian Palace.
It can be said to be a very good deal.
Lin Mu quickly became proficient.
Sometimes the time spent staying in the city is not as long as the time spent on the journey.
It doesn't even take a day to arrive at a city, buy good land, and find a professional builder.
He spread towards the distance along Linge City at almost a sweeping speed.
All the cities along the way were captured by him.
After all, there are only a few big cities, and most of them are small and medium-sized cities, with the number of cultivators ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions.
Lin Mu won two big cities worth millions.
Although the purchase this time was just an ordinary store, it was a big city after all, and the total cost added up to more than three billion spiritual stones.
For ordinary cultivators, this is still a sky-high price and out of reach.
But compared to before, it has already saved a lot.
Months passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Mu was getting further and further away from Linge City.
But what made him happy was that even after being far away, many people wherever he went had heard of his name and knew about the existence of Misty Wonderland and the Jade Slip.
Of course, compared to some cities around Linge City, the atmosphere is much cooler.
After all, his influence is not that strong.
The cultivators here just regard him as a legend, and they have no sense of expectation for him to talk about after dinner.
Only some cultivators who have heard about the misty fairyland want to buy a jade slip.
But even with Lin Mu's speed, it would take several months to get here.
Ordinary cultivators in the Return to Void Stage and those in the Concentration Stage want to go to Linge City to buy a jade slip. Just going there will take more than half a year, or even more than a year, and several years will pass if you come back and forth.
There is a high possibility of accidents happening in the meantime.
There was also a lot of delay.
Many cultivators who heard the rumors had the intention to buy it, but after considering the reality, they had to put down the idea.
This only strengthened Lin Mu's determination to build a Feixian Palace in every city.
If he wanted to earn enough spiritual stones to allow as many cultivators as possible to enter the misty fairyland, he had to take the initiative.
The development process of passively waiting for cultivators to buy it is too slow.
What he is doing now may seem like a waste of time, but in the long run, it will save a lot of time.
Once it is truly achieved, the development speed of Misty Wonderland will inevitably become faster and faster.
After finishing busy in several small towns, Lin Mu started to rush to a big city.
However, after arriving in the big city, Lin Mu encountered a difficult matter.
In big cities, shops in prosperous areas are extremely expensive, and his reputation here has also dropped a lot.
Even if it was him, the other party was still asking for 20 billion spiritual stones.
Thinking about it, in other big cities, it only cost more than 3 billion spiritual stones, but here it cost 20 billion. With the comparison, Lin Mu was naturally not willing to be ripped off like this.
After testing, he completely gave up the idea of a busy area and looked for some ordinary shops that seemed to have great development prospects.
Soon, he had a goal.
However, after he asked, the other party was not willing to sell.
Repeated persuasion was to no avail, and Lin Mu felt helpless on his face.
His spirit stone offensive had no effect for the first time.
After all, Feixian Palace is a long-term matter. The other party is unwilling to sell the store, so naturally he cannot forcefully buy or sell it.
In desperation, I had no choice but to look at other nearby stores.
However, after asking several companies in succession, they were all unwilling to sell.
Lin Mu was depressed.
He really couldn't figure out why the other party still didn't want to sell it, even though the price he offered was very generous.
If it's just one, then that's it. Maybe the other party really put all their efforts into the store and is reluctant to sell it.
But after asking several companies in a row, they all found the same thing, and things seemed weird.
Out of curiosity, Lin Mu did not hesitate to spend a lot of spiritual stones to find out the details from a shopkeeper. Unexpectedly, he guessed it.
Someone is causing trouble behind your back!
The prosperous shop he asked about before belonged to a big force. After his talks with him collapsed, the big force announced that all shop owners in the city were not allowed to sell their land to Lin Mu, otherwise they would be completely ruined here. Xiangcheng disappeared!
Faced with such a threat, naturally no one dared to offend this powerful force.
In the end, Lin Mu could only go to that prosperous store.
Lin Mu heard that the big force was already planning to increase the price of the store to 40 billion spiritual stones.
It's clear that they are bullying outsiders.
Lin Mu was furious after hearing this.
Business cannot be done without benevolence and righteousness.
He did not expect that the big forces in Ningxiang City would become so rampant.
Threatening major stores, forcing him to go back and buy that prosperous store, the price doubled again based on the original 20 billion.
That's too much!
