After calculating this number, even Zhang Yun, the head of the Zhang family, took a deep breath. Twenty-six thousand one hundred spirit stones was still a large number. It was impossible to mass produce them, but some of the higher-ups should be able to gather it by emptying their savings. It could only be given to some of the higher-ups of the Zhang family. The family's expenses were large, and low-level warriors had almost no ability to obtain resources. They could only rely on the family to support them until they reached a certain level of martial arts.
For example, warriors who had reached the Martial Master Realm formed the family's hunting team. Martial General Realm warriors guarded the important shops in the town. Wuzong Realm warriors guarded the family's spirit stone mines and so on. This ensured the continuous development of the Zhang family and guarded the Zhang family's interests.
However, as the head of the Zhang family, the distribution of various benefits was greater than other higher-ups. For example, the share of the shops, the share of the spirit stone mines, and so on. As for the others, only the core higher-ups of the family would receive a higher share of the profits. Over the years, they might be able to cultivate a King Realm demonic beast.
This matter could be mentioned at the next family meeting. There was also the matter of the hunting team. Previously, Mo Tiankong's shop still had Earth Level weapons to rent. As long as they could find a large number of demonic beasts, the spirit stone mines would become a small matter. The mining speed of the spirit stone mines was limited, and the amount produced every year was about the same. When the strength of the family's warriors increased, the mining speed might be faster, and the family's strength would also increase rapidly.
He didn't think for too long. He was a Martial King Realm warrior. If he rode a mount that couldn't fly, even if it ran faster than him on land, he would still lose face.
He immediately took out another Storage Ring from the Space Ring. The Storage Ring contained all the Spirit Stones he had accumulated over the years after using them for cultivation, as well as Lin Xuerou's private savings. After all, in the Zhang Family, he was a henpecked husband. Most of the Spirit Stones, except for those needed for cultivation, were with Lin Xuerou. She was in charge of the family's finances.
He took out the spirit stones with a slight heartache and poured them on the ground. The horse naturally ran over. Not to mention Zhang Tiannan, Zhang Yun had never spent so many spirit stones in his life.
Soon, more than half of the spirit stones on the ground disappeared. Zhang Yun hurriedly collected the remaining spirit stones and put them into his interspatial ring. It should have swallowed enough spirit stones.
As expected, the blood-colored Origin Qi once again surrounded the pony, and it began another advancement.
An hour later, the bloody aura dissipated, revealing an exceptionally handsome horse. It had completely shed its cuteness when it was a young horse. Now, it was in a strong and handsome form. It was about 1.5 meters tall, with a full and beautiful body. Its head was thin and its neck was high, and its limbs were long and slender. Its fur was thin and fine. Its steps were light and elegant, and its body was slender and beautiful. Coupled with its high and curved neck, it outlined its perfect figure.
"Neigh!" With a neigh, the horse's feet emitted a wave of energy, and it immediately soared into the air. It continued to gallop above the courtyard as if it was stepping on clouds. Together with its red appearance, it was exceptionally majestic.
Seeing this, Zhang Yun was very satisfied. He was definitely worthy of his identity as the Family Head. This was simply too eye-catching.
"Since you can walk on clouds, I'll name you Ta Yun," Zhang Yun said with a smile.
"Am I called Ta Yun? I have a name." A bloodline connection filled with joy passed into Zhang Yun's mind. Once a demon beast reached the King level, it would gain intelligence. But it wouldn't be very high. It would only be comparable to an eight or nine year old human child.
Zhang Tiannan was watching from the side with envy and jealousy. But his father had spent twenty-six thousand one hundred spirit stones to raise Ta Yun to the King level. If he wanted his father to raise his own mount, he didn't even need to think about it.
First of all, his father didn't have that many spirit stones. Even if he did, he wouldn't give them to him. This wasn't two spirit stones, but twenty thousand.
But as he stroked his pony, he thought to himself, "Sooner or later, I'll raise you to the King level. But before that, I have to give you a name."
He scratched his head. But what name should he give? It had to be mighty and domineering. His father's name was Ta Yun, so what should he give it?
"How about Chasing Moon? One day, it will catch up to the moon. Domineering, domineering." Zhang Tiannan thought of such a name with difficulty. He didn't care whether Chasing Moon agreed or not, he just said it to it.
"Neigh Neigh" Chasing Moon let out a cry.
Regardless of whether it agreed or not, Zhang Tiannan took it as a yes. He was even proud to be able to come up with this name. But thinking about it, it also agreed.
Although it hadn't been raised to the Martial King level, the Martial General level was still very powerful. At least, it was stronger than him. It was fast and strong. Zhang Tiannan liked it very much.
And the most important thing was that he could ride it now. Although it was only about one meter tall, its general-level strength was already very good for carrying things. He took out the saddle and happily put it on. Then, he rode it and strolled around the courtyard.
.....
Mo Tiankong was in a very good mood today. Zhang Tiannan and his son's two Ferghana Horse Cards were worth ten thousand. Moreover, there were a lot of martial artists who came today. Although less than half of them were sold, it still brought a lot of popularity to the shop. He believed that his reputation value had risen by a lot. When these martial artists returned today, they would bring a lot of reputation value. Mo Tiankong was still very confident about completing the task.
He was busy until the evening. Mo Tiankong sent off the last customer. He looked at the time and saw that it was about time to close the shop. He closed the door on time.
Today was a fulfilling day. He was busy but also had a sense of accomplishment. When he was a small employee on Earth, he worked conscientiously to ensure that he could survive in the steel jungle. Everyone's nerves were tense. They didn't dare to relax. People's hearts were quite complicated.
But here, at least for now, Mo Tiankong hadn't encountered too many cases of mutual deception. For example, Zhang Tiannan, Fatty Tang, Kuang Tie, and many other martial artists. After interacting with them many times, some of them were honest and simple, some of them were nonsensical and funny, and some of them were very straightforward. Even if they experienced more things in the future and changed some, it wouldn't change a lot. Man was born good.
Of course, in this martial arts world where martial arts were respected, there would definitely be many battles. However, it wouldn't affect the shop and Mo Tiankong.
Of course, perhaps it had something to do with Mo Tiankong's seclusion. He didn't have much experience. Most of the customers who came to the shop didn't reveal much. After all, they were only here to buy things. Moreover, the shop had the protection of the System, which was the basis of keeping all transactions simple. Although Mo Tiankong sometimes liked to bicker with the System, like to scold the System, and like to joke with the System, Mo Tiankong was still very grateful to the System. If it wasn't for the System, his life would have been mediocre. He would have to rush about for a living and worry about trivial things.
Although he had left the Dean and his friends to come to this world, the System had also brought him a piece of pure land, his own little world. He could live in a villa with a view of Shanghai, sleep in, and even have the opportunity to see the pinnacle of martial arts. He had the opportunity to have the ability that only people on Earth could have. The System had closed a door for him, but also opened a window for him. Although it wasn't big, it was very exciting.
Mo Tiankong didn't think too much about it. Today was indeed a little tiring. It could be said that it was the most crowded day since the opening of the Super General Store. Not only physically, but mentally as well. Coming to this place without the Dean and his friends, he felt lonely. The only one he had was the System. However, he didn't dare to casually tease the System. With his current skills, he still couldn't beat the System.
After the hot spring was built, he hadn't soaked in it even once. He ran all the way to the room upstairs like a whirlwind, then took a change of clothes and a bath towel and ran back downstairs. When he came to the hot spring, there was a bamboo forest outside the pool, leaving only a one-meter-wide entrance. Mo Tiankong quickly stripped down to his underwear and walked into the pool while stepping on the cobblestones.
The pool was about five meters in diameter. It wasn't small nor big. It could hold about five or six people. However, Mo Tiankong designed it for himself. It was quite big for one person.
As for the formation of hot springs, it could generally be divided into two types:
The first type was formed by magma within the Earth's crust, or by volcanic eruptions. In areas with extinct volcanoes, due to the movement of the Earth's crust, there was still magma that hadn't cooled down yet. It would constantly release large amounts of heat. Because of the concentration of heat, as long as there were pores in the rock stratum, not only would it be heated into hot water, but most of it would also boil into steam. Most of it was sulfate springs.
The second type was formed by the seepage cycle of surface water. In other words, when rainwater fell to the Earth's surface and seeped into the deep aquifer of the Earth's crust, it would form underground water. The underground water would be heated up by the geothermal heat below and become hot water. Most of the hot water in the deep part of the water contained gases. These gases were mainly carbon dioxide. When the temperature of the hot water rose, if there was a dense and impermeable rock stratum blocking the way, the pressure would become higher and higher. Hot water and steam would be in a state of high pressure.
The closer the hot water rose to the Earth's surface, the pressure would gradually decrease. Due to the decrease in pressure, the gases contained in the hot water would gradually expand, reducing the density of the hot water. The expanding steam would be more conducive for the hot water to rise. The rising hot water would then repeatedly circulate with the cold water that sank later due to the difference in density (pressure difference in still water) to produce convection. Under the situation where the resistance of the open fissure was relatively small, the hot water would rise through the fissure and eventually flow out of the Earth's surface, forming a hot spring.
The System indicated that there were two types of hot springs. Mo Tiankong chose the first one. Then the System moved a volcano and extracted the water from a spiritual spring to create this hot spring pool. Soaking in the pool would make one feel a hundred times more energetic. The spiritual spring could warm the body, and there were many benefits to soaking in it for a long time. Normal people wouldn't be so extravagant as to soak in the spiritual spring.
After a good bath, Mo Tiankong got up and changed his clothes. He went upstairs to sleep. The opening hours were until ten o 'clock at night, so it wasn't early anymore. It was almost time to sleep.
