"Is this really where the cultivation house is going to be built? Why isn't there even a shed? There isn't even a construction crew here. This can't be fake, can it? "
Kaede Sato looked at the wasteland in front of him that did not even have a single tile. He then looked around, but there was no one there.
Fortunately, there was a sign. It did say that the cultivation house's construction plan was temporarily put on hold due to a lack of funds. Currently, investors were needed. There was also a contact number left on the sign.
"Hello, is this someone from the cultivation house?"
Kaede Sato had no choice but to take out his communicator and call the number left on the sign. Soon, he got through, so he quickly asked for the person's real identity.
"Yes, young man. I am Takeda Jiro, the person in charge of the cultivation house. Do you want to invest in my cultivation house? Let me tell you, back in the day, I … "
In the next second, a slightly old voice came from the other end of the communicator. The first thing he asked was if Kaede Sato wanted to invest in his cultivation house. He also bragged about his past achievements.
Generally speaking, this old man named Takeda Jiro was the person who wanted to build a cultivation house. Based on his bragging, he seemed to be a famous elf trainer in the Chengdu area.
However, Kaede Sato had never heard of such a famous elf trainer as Takeda Jiro in Chengdu. He had heard of Takeda Taro, but the latter was now the founder of the famous Mankin Cultivation House in Mankin City.
"Could he be a scammer? But this is indeed Route 117. In the future, there will be a famous cultivation house in Fengyuan."
Kaede Sato listened to the other party's bragging patiently, but he was not so sure.
"Hello, Mr. Takeda. My name is Zheping. I do have some extra money, and I want to invest in your cultivation house. However, where are you now? I came to the address where your cultivation house is going to be built, but there is no one here."
With the intention of giving it a try, Kaede Sato finally gave Takeda Jiro a chance. He didn't hide his thoughts and straightforwardly stated his intentions.
"So, it's Mr. Zheping. Thank you so much. Your decision to invest in my cultivation house was right. I am now building the cultivation house in the Flower Village, not far south. You just need to walk south for about half an hour and you will arrive there."
"This old man is old and can't walk anymore. If you want to talk to me about investment matters in person, then please come to the Flower Village to find me. I will be waiting for you in the Flower Village."
When Takeda Jiro heard that Kaede Sato was interested in investing, he immediately became more polite and quickly told Kaede Sato his current address.
"So there's a village nearby. That's good. After walking for so long, it's time to find a place to rest."
After getting Takeda Jiro's answer, Kaede Sato took out a compass from his body and looked towards the south. He seemed to be deep in thought.
Sure enough, Takeda Jiro didn't deceive Kaede Sato. Kaede Sato rode the cross-country bicycle for seven or eight minutes before he saw a village with a flowerbed in front of the village gate.
Before he got close to the village, a refreshing fragrance drifted over with the wind. Kaede Sato took a whiff and couldn't help but feel a lot better.
"Pika ~"
Pikachu was also intoxicated by the fragrance of the flowers. He had a look of enjoyment on his face and let out happy barks.
"Woof woof woof ~"
However, when Kaede Sato was about to get close to the Flower Village, a large wolfhound ran out of the village gate with a few aardwolves. Then, they barked loudly at Kaede Sato and Pikachu, who were strangers to the Flower Village.
When Kaede Sato saw the vicious dogs blocking the way, his face suddenly changed. Just as he was hesitating whether to let Pikachu teach the vicious dogs a lesson, a little girl wearing a floral skirt came out of the village with a wooden shuriken and then came before the large wolfhound and the aardwolves.
When the large wolfhound and aardwolves saw the little girl, they acted like mice seeing a cat. They immediately clamped their tails and didn't dare to continue barking.
"Big brother, as long as you give me something to eat, I'll help you stop Big Black and the others."
The little girl looked at Kaede Sato curiously with her big eyes. Her eyes rolled and suddenly revealed a trace of craftiness. Then, she said to Kaede Sato in a childish voice.
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her head and extended her hand to Kaede Sato with an expression that said, "Come and please me."
When Kaede Sato saw this, how could he not know that the vicious dogs belonged to the little girl's family. Moreover, the other party must have done a lot of harm to the vicious dogs.
"Okay, this is for you."
When he thought of this, he suddenly became happy. Thus, he took out a bag of potato chips from his spatial equipment and handed it to the little girl with a smile on his face.
"Kekeke ~ ~"
When the little girl saw that Kaede Sato really gave her a snack, her big watery eyes immediately revealed a crafty expression. She was not afraid of strangers and immediately rushed forward to snatch the snack handed over by Kaede Sato. Then, she laughed happily.
"You little thing, why are you cheating people again? Hurry up and give it back."
At this time, a beautiful middle-aged woman came out from a nearby house and said to the little girl with a cold face.
"No, this is a gift from big brother. Little Green, let's go."
When the little girl saw that her mother wanted to take away the snack in her hand again, she hurriedly took Mu Shougong and ran away while shouting loudly.
Unfortunately, the little girl's legs were short. How could she outrun her mother? After a few seconds, the middle-aged woman pulled one of her ears and brought her in front of Kaede Sato.
"Auntie, it's okay. This is a gift from me. It's delicious, and it won't make you too hot."
Kaede Sato took the snack from the middle-aged woman and said to her with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, he opened the package and threw one of the chips into his mouth. Then, he handed the bag of chips in his hand back to the greedy little girl.
"I'm really sorry. This little thing usually likes to cheat people of their food and drink. But she doesn't mean any harm, please don't take it to heart."
"By the way, what are you doing in our Flower Village? We rarely have outsiders here."
Seeing this, the middle-aged woman's eyes flickered. She did not continue to stop the little girl from taking the chips. Then, she turned her head and said to Kaede Sato with a smile. At the same time, she asked about Kaede Sato's intentions.
"To tell you the truth, I'm here to look for an old man named Takeda Jiro. He said that he lives here."
Kaede Sato saw that the middle-aged woman's vigilance had decreased a lot, but she was still wary of him. He did not mind and directly stated his intentions.
"So you're here to look for Grandpa Takeda. I know where he is. I'll take you there, big brother."
When the little girl heard that Kaede Sato was here to look for Takeda Jiro, she immediately broke free from the middle-aged woman's hand and then said to Kaede Sato with a smile. Her eyes rolled once again. It was unknown what she was thinking.
"Go back, you little thing."
"Old Mister Takeda's house is not difficult to find. His house is the blue-roofed house in the village."
When the middle-aged woman heard the little girl say so, she could not help but feel nervous. She immediately pulled the little girl and scolded her. Then, she personally pointed out the address to Kaede Sato.
As soon as she finished speaking, she pulled the reluctant little girl into the house.
"Strange, the people in this village don't seem to welcome outsiders. They are a bit too vigilant."
Kaede Sato couldn't help but think helplessly when he saw the middle-aged woman being so vigilant and indifferent towards him.
