Lou Xiaoyi had been working in the Instant Immortal for a year. He was familiar with the environment and many things were easier for him. There was no problem with his work, but the problem was his own problem!
How could he satisfy the Crow Ancestor's morality? This was an extremely challenging problem!
His problem was that he had been away from his own sect ever since Jin Dan, so he knew nothing about the Crow Ancestor's life! Martial Uncle Mi had talked about some things, but it was all about the general situation. How could he have the time to talk about personal morality?
In these aspects, if he had stayed in the sect, he would have been able to get some information because of his cultivation level. He would have been able to vaguely get a general direction. For example, the Crow Ancestor's personality, his inclination towards good and evil, and his way of dealing with people. If he could have a specific understanding of the Crow Ancestor's famous deeds, he would at least be able to make a general judgment!
Unfortunately, for Lou Xiaoyi, he was at a loss right now!
After thinking about it, he realized that he had no chance to understand the Crow Ancestor's life. He could only give up on this idea. The only thing he could do now was to follow his own pace and follow his own morality. This might be the most in line with his Taoist heart!
But it might not be in line with the Crow Ancestor's heart!
This unlucky Crow Ancestor, he was no longer here, but he still gave him such a difficult problem!
Lou Xiaoyi gave up on acting awkwardly and began to do what he thought he should do. He had been in the Instant Immortal for a year. He had a thorough understanding of the environment here. Could he do something that could affect everyone?
He could not use the power of a cultivator, so he could only use the power of an ordinary person. Fortunately, he came from his previous life, so there were still many directions worth trying.
His goal was to be an inventor! What should he invent? In a place like this, if ten people transmigrated here, ten of them would invent one thing …
The raw materials used were not complicated. The caecum of a lamb, the bladder of an animal, or the bladder of a fish. The raw materials used depended on the popularity of the raw materials and the simplicity of the manufacturing process. Lou Xiaoyi believed in the intelligence of the people in this world. As long as he started, there would definitely be people who would not give up and continue to research until it became popular throughout the universe. Now, he just needed to start.
He chose fish bladders because in Jia Zhou City, due to the existence of the Gudi River, the fish resources were extremely abundant. Fish bladders were also the easiest material to find. Countless similar things were thrown away as trash in Instant Deity's kitchen every day, and he was just recycling the waste.
Among them, there was a type of fish called the Blistereye. Its swim bladder was especially suitable. Whether it was the size, texture, or elasticity, it was the best. The process was also very simple. It was dried, and then it was softened with oil and wheat bran until it became a thin rubber.
He made dozens of them and gradually became more familiar with them. He didn't have to worry about the issue of patents because this world didn't care about that. He gave it to Steward Wu and explained its use. All that was left was to wait and slowly ferment. From rejection to dependence, from luxury goods to daily necessities, this was the process.
On a certain evening ten days later, Lou Xiaoyi and the other three doormen were on duty at the entrance. Today was a very famous festival in the Heaven's Choice Continent, the Bamboo Festival. It was similar to the Chinese Valentine's Day in Lou Xiaoyi's previous world, a good day for lovers to gather. Instant Deity's place was also very lively. People came and went, and there was an endless stream of horses and carriages.
After enduring the busiest time for guests, the flow of people began to lessen. The four doormen finally had some time to rest and chat.
Among the four, Lou Xiaoyi was already considered half an old man. Among them, there was one who came later than him and had only been here for a month. Looking at these people's extravagant lifestyle, he was very envious and sighed.
"If only we could be like them one day! They celebrate the Bamboo Festival and are all lovey-dovey. We can only celebrate the Paper Offering Festival a few days later, lonely and cheerless. "
The Bamboo Festival was the Chinese Valentine's Day in the Heaven's Choice Continent, while the Paper Offering Festival was the Qingming Festival here. It was just that they were closer, so this newcomer had such a feeling.
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "Little Five, you don't have to be envious. It's all the same! It's just burning money and sending flowers!
The Bamboo Festival is burning real money and saying a bunch of nonsense for people to listen to. The Paper Offering Festival is burning fake money and saying a bunch of nonsense for ghosts to listen to!
What's the difference? "
Everyone laughed. Lou Xiaoyi's popularity here was not bad. Everyone liked him because he worked hard and never slacked off. Moreover, he was very witty.
They were all from poor families and no one was more noble than the other. It was normal for them to tease each other. It was also to find joy in the midst of hardship. This was the attitude of the people at the bottom of society.
While they were chatting, a middle-aged woman walked over with a kitchen knife in her hand, scaring the few of them.
Since Little Five was a newcomer, he was naturally the one to welcome her. He stopped her and asked. It turned out that this woman suspected that her husband was celebrating the Bamboo Festival with someone here. She was furious and came to find him with a knife. She was also a shrewish woman.
In the Jia Country, since it was a country of morals, there was a system of monogamy. The status of women was not low, at least on the surface. On this Valentine's Day, men with a sense of responsibility should of course stay at home with their wives. It was not good for them to fool around.
Of course, this had a lot to do with the status of the husband and wife. Some dared to come here with a knife, while others could only cry at home.
Xiao Wu handed the woman over to the other three and ran inside. The other three also guessed that he was going to pass on the message, but they couldn't stop him. Newcomers were all like this. They were too eager to show off. They thought that by doing this, they could gain the manager's appreciation and get a more lucrative job. They were very naive.
An old servant sighed. "It's over. How many guests do you think will come this year? If it's less than five, we will at most receive a small punishment. If it's more than ten, I'm afraid that this month's salary will be halved! "
Not long after, there was a slight movement at the corner of the brothel. Lou Xiaoyi heard it and realized that there were less than twenty people running away! Of course, he was the only one who could hear it. The others were clueless.
After a while, Steward Wu walked over with a gloomy face, followed by Little Five, who had a bitter look on his face. Obviously, he had messed up the matter. With a loud shout, many of the men who had a traitor in their hearts ran away. This was all money that could be earned from running!
Steward Wu glared fiercely at the few of them. "This month's salary will be halved! Little Five is insensible. You old people also don't know? You are deliberately looking for a joke. Don't think that I don't know! "
After venting a few words, he turned to Lou Xiaoyi alone. "Little Yi, you have always been outstanding. I didn't expect you to be so inexperienced! Come with me. I have another punishment for you! "
Lou Xiaoyi didn't say much. He smiled at Little Five, who had an apologetic look in his eyes, and followed Steward Wu.
He knew very well that it wasn't because of this trivial matter. It was more likely that there was progress on that invention of his?
The rules here were still very strict. Things like this required many people to try before they could know if it was good or bad. Now that more than ten days had passed, the time was just right.
