Qin Shengtian, King of the Northern Frontier, and the North Ridge Mountains Gold Mine Map!
That evening, Ling Yi looked at the three women on the kang (a heated brick bed) and was speechless for a moment.
He has the body of a four or five-year-old, but the soul of Uncle in his forties.
Originally, Ling Yi wanted Qin Yue and Qin Ru to stay at any family's house in the village.
But Ling Yun rejected it.
"This kang (heated brick bed) can comfortably sleep the four of us, or even three or five more."
"If we find another place, Qin Yue and the others will need to renovate and Fire Starting the house warm. I'm afraid they won't be able to keep the house warm, so I might as well burn it down first."
These words made Qin Yue and Qin Yuan feel awkward.
They made quite a few laughs just from Fire Lighting today.
"Miss Qin Yue has already promised to teach me Kung Fu Hustle tomorrow morning, so naturally she can't leave."
And of course, there's another point: a large crowd makes it more lively.
Before, only the two siblings were left in the village; it was like a ghost village.
How could Ling Yun, a girl who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, possibly withstand this?
If it weren't for taking care of her younger brother, she probably wouldn't have been able to persevere.
Now the house is finally alive again, which is exactly what Ling Yun wanted to see.
The villagers believe most in the importance of a large and prosperous population. They believe that a large population brings vitality, and vitality brings prosperity.
How can a large and prosperous population exist if there are no people?
In fact, Qin Yue and the other person didn't want to leave either.
They didn't mention tidying up the house or the issue of heating the kang (heated brick bed).
The two women were reluctant to leave because of that bucket of Spiritual Water alone.
If she could, she would love to soak in that Spiritual Water and cultivate directly.
"Exactly, you're small in stature and petty in heart. It's just sleeping on your kang (heated brick bed), why are you being so stingy?" Qin Yue finally saw through it.
Ling Yi was extremely kind to this older sister.
As long as she clings to Ling Yun's coattails from now on, Ling Yi will never be able to bully her again.
"Whatever." Ling Yi shrugged.
He sat down at the very end of the kang (heated brick bed).
However, looking at the only two quilts in the house, Ling Yi started to have a headache again.
There's no doubt that the blankets are definitely for me and my sister.
The point isn't that there are only two blankets; the point is that these blankets are far too worn out.
"System, can you handle this?" Ling Yi asked, pointing to the blanket.
[The host can consume 1 Upgrade Points to upgrade the quilt to a new pure cotton quilt, and can Copy ten times.]
One Upgrade Points is worth 100,000 taels of silver.
Ten thousand taels of silver for ten cotton quilts?
This deal is never worthwhile.
But this blanket is too worn out; it's beneath me to sleep with this.
"Can't we have a proper discussion? Ten thousand taels of silver for ten cotton quilts? That's outrageous!"
[Host, you need to understand that 100,000 taels of silver is 100,000 taels of silver, and 1 Upgrade Points is 1 Upgrade Points. They cannot be confused. This is the rule, not that I'm trying to cheat you.]
Whether it's genuinely true that there's no room for negotiation, or just a pretense, there's no going back.
However, Ling Yi did not immediately upgrade the quilt.
Instead, he continued, "System, can you upgrade the house directly?"
[The host can spend 1 Upgrade Points to upgrade the dilapidated mud house into a brand new brick house, and spend 2 Upgrade Points to upgrade it into a brand new guesthouse.]
"What kind of guesthouse?" Ling Yi asked, his eyes lighting up.
[ Splendid Garden!]
The system uttered three words.
Ling Yi was completely stunned.
Splendid Garden was the place Ling Yi lived in for the longest time in his previous life, a place that could barely be called home.
In his previous life, Ling Yi wandered the world without a fixed abode due to his missions.
I never stay in one place for more than ten days.
The only place Ling Yi would spend two months of each year was Splendid Garden.
Ling Yi takes two months off every year.
For the next two months, I will be staying at this guesthouse, Splendid Garden.
Splendid Garden Homestay offers guesthouses where each guesthouse has its own independent courtyard.
Inside the courtyard is a separate two-story building.
If it's upgraded to a separate courtyard like Splendid Garden, will the amenities within the courtyard be complete?
"System, can you read my memories?"
[Host, I've been with you since my previous life, but this system wasn't activated due to a lack of energy.]
[Otherwise, why do you think you were so awesome in your previous life? It was precisely because this system made the most basic upgrade to you.]
[ Photographic Memory and extraordinary comprehension skills didn't appear out of thin air.]
I see.
[If the host hadn't been so reckless and courted death, once my energy recovered, the system could have been activated in the Original World without the host needing to travel through time.]
[I just never expected that after the host died, I would be transported to this world.]
"You didn't orchestrate the time travel?"
[This is not from this system, and this system doesn't know who it is. All data related to time travel is missing.]
Ling Yi frowned.
Is there something else going on here? Or rather, are there other people involved?
However, these are not issues that Ling Yi should be considering right now.
Coming to his senses, Ling Yi asked again, "So, 1 Upgrade Points can Copy 100,000 Silver, and 1 Upgrade Points can upgrade to make ten cotton quilts."
"Can one Upgrade Points transform this dilapidated mud house into a guesthouse courtyard?"
[Therefore, host, please be careful when using Upgrade Points Upgrade Points the future to maximize their value.]
"What if I upgrade the entire Little Ye Village?"
[...]
[10 Upgrade Points can upgrade Little Ye Village into a new homestay village at the Splendid Garden level.]
Should we upgrade?
Ling Yi thought about it for a while, but ultimately didn't upgrade anything.
This is just upgrading the comforter; it's not worth it at all.
Upgrading the house is too late today, I'll do it tomorrow.
Upgrading the village is not being considered for the time being.
Ling Yi was mainly worried that making too much noise would frighten the girls.
To be precise, I was afraid of scaring my older sister Ling Yun.
Although Ling Yun didn't say anything, Ling Yi could clearly sense that Ling Yun had become somewhat unfamiliar with him.
Ultimately, it takes time to adapt.
Ling Yi had no ambitions since he transmigrated to this world.
In his previous life, Ling Yi walked a path between life and death every day without ever stopping.
He had neither family nor friends.
I'm all alone.
It's not that Ling Yi doesn't want to have it, but that he can't.
In reality, Ling Yi longs for family affection and desires to have relatives and friends.
To have a real home.
Whether it was for the Karma of the original owner or for this seemingly dilapidated home, the reason for transmigrating to this world was...
Ling Yi only wanted to Guard her; everything else could wait.
"Forget it, let's wait and see about upgrading the house!"
Meanwhile, in the Northern Frontier, at the Northern Frontier King Palace.
The Northern Frontier King, with a square face and a Little Mustache on his chin, was looking at Map on a soft leather cover by candlelight.
Qin Shengtian, the Northern Frontier King, is the younger brother of the deceased emperor.
He failed to win the crown prince position and was instead granted the title of Northern Frontier King.
As members of the royal bloodline, how could they not have the ambition to rule as emperor?
It's just that I haven't had the chance yet.
Several months ago, after narrowly escaping back from the capital, the Northern Frontier King knew he could not wait any longer.
If we wait any longer, he'll be too old.
If we wait any longer, we might not even get to see him start a rebellion; instead, we might be met with a massive army pressing in.
This year, the North Leaf Province suffered a severe drought, resulting in countless deaths from starvation and widespread suffering.
And coincidentally, he had just escaped back to the Northern Frontier when he heard that his beloved elder brother had been murdered by his own son.
Princess Qin Yuan fled, and the second prince ascended the throne.
When emperors change, it is a time of instability in the court.
Qin Shengtian knew that his opportunity had arrived.
But starting a rebellion requires money!
His limited resources are enough for small-scale operations, but not enough for anything big.
And this Map arrived at just the right time.
This was something he obtained by chance.
The location marked on the Map is said to be a sizable gold mine.
If we can acquire this gold mine, we'll never have to worry about money again.
" North Leaf Province, Red Maple Town, North Ridge Mountains."
Qin Shengtian tapped his finger on the Map and murmured.
