Of course, if it were only verbal comfort and praise, it wouldn’t have any real effect.
Therefore, Li Zhirui also prepared rewards for the disciples.
Depending on the level of their cultivation, he bestowed different quantities of top-grade pills; for example, individual immortal disciples received just one bottle, while mortal realm disciples might have received several.
And this reward alone was worth millions of spirit stones.
Although, for Li Zhirui, it only took him less than half a day.
"Thank you, Sect Leader!" The disciples were very happy and excited, shouting in unison.
Before this, they hadn’t even imagined they could receive such rewards, and now they received not just any rewards, but extrely precious top-grade pills.
If taken when encountering a bottleneck or attempting to break through a minor realm, they could have miraculous effects!
"This is what you deserve. I hope that, after receiving these pills, they help in your cultivation."
"We will certainly not let down the Sect Leader and the Sect’s expectations."
Li Zhirui nodded and said, "Now, assu your duties, but even if you are not at the mountain gate, do not neglect your cultivation."
After saying this, he disappeared.
"Do you think the Sect Leader is satisfied with us?"
He actually wanted to know if the Sect Leader had forgiven them for what they previously did.
So cultivators understood and responded affirmatively, saying, "He probably is, otherwise he wouldn’t have rewarded us."
Several disciples’ faces relaxed significantly. They had been diligent and cautious these days, worried about not earning the Sect Leader’s forgiveness, which would have made their trial a failure.
What they didn’t know was that, once the immortal city was built within the stipulated ti, Li Zhirui no longer minded this matter.
It must be said, they interacted too little with Li Zhirui, knew him scarcely, and believed he was an austere figure.
But in reality, he had a very open heart and wouldn’t dwell on such small matters.
Just then, soone suddenly knocked on the city lord’s mansion door, and a stranger’s voice ca from outside, saying, "Is there anyone in charge inside? We wish to inquire about shop rental matters."
"Please co in."
Regarding various matters within the immortal city, Li Zhirui had already arranged everything. The disciples simply needed to manage according to the rules and regulations.
Thus, when soone ca to rent a shop, they only needed to receive them politely, then present the prescribed rules for them to see.
"We are also acting according to the rules, at most we can offer you a half percent fee reduction, which is already our limit," said a disciple directly, as they didn’t have much authority.
This statent left the rchants looking at each other, unsure how to respond.
Actually, the rental price wasn’t high, considering Li Zhirui saw that the immortal city and marketplace were initially established and wouldn’t be too prosperous.
But rchants always want to earn greater profits with lower costs.
"We have no issues with the price, we just wish for the rental period to be longer. Fifty years is too short, how about a hundred years?" The rchants exchanged a glance and sent one of them to inquire.
"Regarding this, the Sect Leader has instructed that a longer rental term can be signed, but starting from the fifty-first year, the price will be adjusted according to circumstances."
The disciples previously had so doubts about certain rules and regulations, but now they absolutely admired Li Zhirui, who could foresee so many things in advance.
Upon hearing this, the rchants knew they probably couldn’t gain much advantage, as the Sect Leader had already made various arrangents.
Though slightly disappointed, they were more pleased because, from these arrangents, it was evident that the Tongtian Sect had a complete developnt plan for the immortal city and marketplace, rather than being a fleeting establishnt.
Not to ntion future prospects, but this ti their investnt should yield considerable returns.
Hence, they readily signed contracts, each renting several shops in the immortal city and marketplace at once.
After sending off these rchants, the disciples privately discussed.
"The Sect Leader is truly far-sighted, able to anticipate so many contingencies."
"And those rchants not only didn’t resist but agreed readily."
But they hadn’t anticipated one thing; those rchants were just the beginning. For so ti afterward, every day, cultivators ca knocking, wanting to rent shops.
Among them were sects and families from nearby, eager to partake in the increasingly lively and prosperous immortal city.
They orderly received these cultivators, and regarding Tongtian Sect’s conditions and requirents, these cultivators showed little resistance.
Even if they did, it wouldn’t be apparent because discerning individuals could see clearly; the real shortage was not people, but the number of shops.
Within just a few days, most shops in the immortal city and marketplace were rented out, leaving few available.
Consequently, for several days, sounds of knocking and hamring were heard everywhere, as everyone hurriedly completed renovations and opened for business.
anwhile, the fa brought by the auction gradually spread, attracting more and more cultivators to this place.
The na of the Tongtian Sect had even spread beyond Mingzhou’s borders, earning so reputation in nearby regions, known for being an unusual sect selling the modified Spirit Enhancing Pills.
