Chapter 62: The Challenge from Hotel Changjin

  Basic Skills: Linggen Xianti 205/200, can be upgraded.

  After opening the Zhou Yi system interface, the first thing that comes into view is this delightful and pleasant scene.

  Since he moved to Yunshui Mountain District, his living environment has been greatly improved, and the green healthy food he eats every day has increased his daily upgrade potential points from two to six.

  At noon, it was time to obtain the daily upgrade potential points. It is estimated that during this period, Zhou Yi's accumulated potential points from his daily activities, plus those obtained from subsidiary occupations such as planting and cooking, were almost enough for an upgrade. Today, he received six more potential points, so the system reacted immediately.

  "Upgrade!"

  Zhou Yi chose to upgrade without hesitation. During this period, he practiced standing meditation every day, and although he had some qi sensation, he was unable to condense it in his dantian, let alone trigger a profession or skill corresponding to qigong. Perhaps after upgrading the Linggen Xianti to level two, there might be some kind of breakthrough.

  People who are more lazy and like to be comfortable are more likely to be perfectionists. Zhou Yi is already a ninth-level medical god, and even the "Ninth-Level Qi Mo Hand" is at the level of Ninth-Level Great Perfection, but he can't use it because he doesn't have a foundation in qigong. This feeling is like winning a huge prize, but losing the lottery ticket so you can't claim it - it's really uncomfortable. Even with Zhou Yi's personality, he would go all out and not give up on any hope.

  After the upgrade of the fundamental skills of Linggen Xianti, various data also changed accordingly.

  Constitution 5, Insight 5, Strength 5, Agility 5, Wisdom 5.

  Current main occupation: None

  Current secondary occupations: Culinary 9th level perfection, Medical 9th level perfection, Planting 9th level perfection (with tool support), Animal husbandry 9th level perfection (with tool support)

  2nd level attributes: Attack 35 points, Defense 35 points, Speed 35 points, Spirit 35 points.

  From a practical point of view, Zhou Yi's current various indicators are already seven times that of ordinary people. If we say that when the basic skills were upgraded to level one, there was a kind of ease like taking off winter clothes, now Zhou Yi is simply as light as a swallow.

  Looking around to make sure no one was watching, Zhou Yi tapped his feet on the ground and suddenly found himself floating more than four meters high. He even startled himself. Good grief! The lightness skills of those legendary figures in the novels, like the "Gentlemen on the Beam" and the "Flower Thief", were probably just about this level, right?

  Zhou Yi was shocked in his heart, hastily fell back to the ground and stood still with his pole again. Fortunately, the scene just now wasn't seen by the villagers, otherwise even if they didn't take him as the famous TV personality Wanli Duxing Tian Boguang, they would probably shout loudly and go out...

  In this world, there may not be any YY-style elite troops, aristocratic families, or super masters, but a national sports committee can still exist; Zhou Yi might not want to be discovered by some coach with 'extreme surprise', and then directly 'kidnapped' into some track and field team or football team, and then have some senior veteran have a heart-to-heart talk with him with tears in his eyes, and then he'd foolishly go run and take over the job of flying man, coveting the Great Power Cup; finally being surrounded by flowers and applause, and having beautiful female reporters intimately touch him up and down, and from then on losing his happy life, even going out to throw away trash requires repeated caution to avoid being ambushed by paparazzi and becoming a big news story...

  Is that still a human life? This is absolutely a situation that Zhou Yi wants to avoid at all costs. Even if his cooking skills, medical skills, planting skills, or animal husbandry skills are exposed, they don't have such great destructive power and won't have a devastating impact on his life. But if people discover that he has seven times the strength and speed of an ordinary person, even if he's not sent to the dissection table, he'll be controlled by the country from then on and lose his freedom.

  "Unfortunately, although the basic skills have been upgraded to two levels, there is no gift package this time..."

  I'm a bit disappointed with the I Ching. It seems that even systems have their limits, the first time I upgraded there was a newbie gift package given away, but this time it's empty-handed...

  However, when he stood still with his pole again, he found that after his mind was calm, the air flow that had been running wildly in his body originally began to gather gradually in his lower abdomen, and once gathered, it would no longer disperse.

  An unexpected delight.

  ***

  Autumn wind is rising, leaves are falling, but in the fields, there is a thriving scene. The rice seedlings planted at the end of summer are growing vigorously, some have grown to nearly one person high, until they are bent down by the heavy ears of rice and reluctantly stop growing.

  Every time at this moment, the hardworking villagers would open their mouths and laugh happily until the faces that were filled with wind and frost showed lines of wrinkles, until those wrinkles transmitted a voice - a bumper harvest! Only then would they stand up from the fields, knock on the ash-filled pipe, and walk quickly towards home. The women at home had already cooked fragrant rice and dishes, leaning against the door and waiting for their return.

  This is the satisfaction of a farmer, the joy of a farmer, the small days of a farmer...

  These days, Zhou Yi also has time to run to the edge of the field. However, his two mu of 'Green Jade' don't know where they came from, and other people's rice is full and golden, looking like it can be harvested in another ten or twenty days. But these two mu of strange species have just begun to sprout, still a bright green color, without even a hint of yellow.

  Even Li Yuanfang couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly, saying: "I hope it's not that the foreign breed isn't adapted to our land of China and has gotten a case of homesickness?"

  At first, Zhou Yi was also a bit anxious, but as time went on, she just let it be. Anyway, what's meant to be will be, and no matter how hard you try, a good marriage can't be rushed, just like how a big girl won't get married until the right time comes along.

  I have to go back to Chu Du first. The decoration of Tingfeng Xiaozhu has been completed, and the telephone network has also been connected. However, buying electrical appliances is not something that others can do on behalf of Zhou Yi, so he must go to the mall in person. Also, the pickled vegetables made by Dong Xiaowan have reached the right time, and Zhou Yi plans to bring some samples over. To sell these expensive pickled vegetables, Zhang Zuo's help is needed, as his old place is about to be upgraded to a five-star level. To sell the pickled vegetables at a high price, three steps are required: first, make them; second, find a high-end hotel; third, sell them out. Zhang Zuo's old place is just right for this.

  Moreover, Zhang Zhao is a shrewd person, but he's also quite righteous and magnanimous. Zhou Yi feels more at ease entrusting these sky-high priced pickles to him for sale, which can also be quickly cashed in. He has always been uneasy about owing Liu Ke money, and Zhou Yi always feels that this old rabbit has ideas about himself, although not in a physiological sense...

  Just got on the Range Rover and hadn't even started it yet when Zhang Zhuang suddenly called.

  "Hah, Zhang Ge, what kind of special skill have you practiced? I was just about to go to Chudu, how did you know? This time I..."

  Zhou Yi had just smiled and said a couple of words when Zhang Zhuo hastily interrupted him: "Brother Zhou, no joking around, this time Brother Zhang needs you to save his life!"

  "What's so funny? I'm just about to drive to Chudu..."

  Zhou Yi said strangely, "Zhang Ge, what's wrong with you? Whose life are you trying to save?" He thought to himself, could it be that his reputation as a divine doctor has spread all the way to Chu Du, and coincidentally arrived just in time for this family's illness... Could it really be such a coincidence?

  "You really want to come to Chudu? That's great!"

  On the other end of the phone, Zhang Zhuang let out a sigh of relief: "Zhou younger brother, to be honest with you, my old place's main store has been upgraded to five-star level. I spent a huge amount of money on renovations and expansion, and it was closed for business for an entire month... but just as we're about to reopen next week, I received a challenge from a fellow in the same line of work."

  "Is this really happening on our trip?"

  Zhou Yi was taken aback, he also knew that before liberation, the industry rules were strict, and there was a saying that insiders would challenge each other. The loser would either close down or even exit the industry directly. But now it's the 21st century, why are they still playing this kind of Jianghu style?

  "How can that be? Although it's not like the old days now, if I, Zhang Ge, lose, then according to the rules, we'll have to open on the day they specify..."

  Zhang Zuo said helplessly, "Younger brother, you say, if others point out that it's an inauspicious day for everything, or even ask me to open on Qingming Festival, I'd be so embarrassed to death!"

  "Oh? Which restaurant is so disrespectful to Zhang Ge?"

  I'm Zhou Yi is indeed quite curious. Just looking at Liu Ke, the boss of this listed company, towards Zhang Zhao's attitude, it can be seen that Zhang Zhao is definitely doing well in Chu Du, and it's not an exaggeration to say that he has a wide network of connections. With his abilities, even if there are peers who are jealous, they wouldn't go so far as to be so unfriendly and create enmity.

  "Hey... if it were just us Chinese, it wouldn't matter whether we win or lose, Zhang Ge wouldn't dare to easily disturb you, the great Buddha. But this time, it's a five-star hotel run by those South Korean sticks..."

  "It's just the Changjing Hotel opposite our old main store!" Zhang Zhao said irritably.
