Chapter 16: Blue Silver Holy Village, Blue Silver City
"It's naturally impossible for me to participate in the battles between Titled Douluo, so if I want to obtain the Blue Silver Emperor, I can only consider it after Tang Hao retires to Holy Soul Village."
"It would be safest to wait until Tang San goes to Shrek Academy, but that would take too long."
"All I have is Blue Silver Grass. I need to increase my efforts to plant more... especially around Holy Soul Village!"
There is still half a year left, which is enough for Su Lin to turn all the Blue Silver Grass around him into his own eyes.
Thatched Village, Old John's home.
"Little Su Lin, even though you were lucky enough to be rewarded with a large sum of money by the Spirit Hall this time, you can't squander it like this!"
Old John looked at the pile of Gold Soul Coins on the table with a serious expression on his face.
Is this kid really obsessed with planting grass?
Not only did he plant Blue Silver Grass all around Thatched Village, he even wanted to plant it in other nearby villages as well!
Even if he knew that this kid was rich now, he shouldn't waste it like this!
Although the seeds of Blue Silver Grass are not expensive, there are more than a dozen villages near Notting City, and the wages for finding someone to help are not cheap!
"Grandpa Village Chief, I've done the math. Even if we assume an average of 1,000 people per village in the fifteen nearby villages, and 500 of them are able to work, I'll pay each of them one Silver Soul Coin a week. That would make 1,000 Gold Soul Coins completely sufficient, with some left over!"
Before, one Gold Soul Coin was given every day, which was a preferential treatment for Thatched Village.
For other villages, one a week is enough, and there will be plenty of people willing to do it.
Su Lin received a total of 3,000 Gold Soul Coins as rewards from the Spirit Hall. After deducting the money he used to reward the villagers and purchase Whale Glue, he now has about 2,500 left.
Even if you deduct the money for buying Blue Silver Grass seeds, it will still be enough.
After all, Blue Silver Grass is everywhere, and the seeds are worthless. A big bag costs less than one Silver Soul Coin.
Su Lin's words did not satisfy Old John. He said earnestly, "Grandpa said you don't have enough money. It's not easy to earn money. You can't squander it so easily!"
It was indeed not easy. If Su Lin had not almost exhausted his life force to save Su Haishan, the reward given by the Spirit Hall would never have been so generous.
But for Su Lin, there is no need to save money.
What he wants is to continue practicing and become stronger as soon as possible!
As long as he has the ability, it is not difficult to obtain more Gold Soul Coins.
If it can be helpful for cultivation, it is totally worth spending a few Gold Soul Coins.
Old John was of course well-intentioned. He treated Su Lin as his own child, which was why he gave such advice.
However, Su Lin also has his own plans.
If he originally planted more Blue Silver Grass just to see if he could speed up his cultivation.
Now, after a transformation, the way forward is clear, which is truly related to his own future!
He would never back down on such matters.
"Grandpa Village Chief, please trust me."
Su Lin's expression was solemn and resolute: "Everything I do is meaningful. This is not a waste of Gold Soul Coins, but for cultivation."
"The nearby Holy Soul Village has only produced one Soul Sage, but my goal... is to become the first Titled Douluo with the Blue Silver Grass spirit!"
"So, please, Grandpa Village Chief, continue to support me!"
Old John fell silent. Su Lin had always been very opinionated since he was young, and he was so mature that he didn't seem like a child.
Although he is young, little Su Lin is already a true Soul Master after all...
Old John sighed softly.
Maybe... he really couldn't understand the world of Soul Masters!
Seeing that Old John's attitude seemed to waver, Su Lin immediately continued, "Grandpa Village Chief, I once promised that I would repay everyone in the village when I became a Soul Master, and now I am doing so."
"And now, I want to say this... When I become a Titled Douluo, I will turn Thatched Village into Blue Silver City!"
Having said that, he suddenly pulled Old John's arm, chuckled, and finally showed some childishness.
"Then you will be the city lord. Even Old Jack from the neighboring Holy Soul Village will obey you obediently."
Maybe it was because he thought of the scene where Old Jack, who was always a little bit unreasonable, was scolded by him, but Old John couldn't help but smile on his wrinkled face.
"You little brat, you're not a big guy, but you're so arrogant. You're calling yourself a Titled Douluo."
Su Lin opened his mouth but ultimately did not explain.
In fact, if this accident had not determined the future path and a smooth road ahead, he would not have dared to make such a guarantee.
But at this moment, Old John no longer insisted. He slowly stood up and gently patted Su Lin's shoulder: "I don't count on Blue Silver City anymore. As long as you can be safe and sound, that's better than anything else."
He went to Notting and came back with a head of dry white hair like an old man. How could it be dyed?
He just didn't say it out loud.
Fortunately, although the boy's hair color has not changed back, it has become smooth again. He thinks he is fine now.
Old John walked briskly out the door.
Su Lin blinked and said, "Where are you going, Grandpa Village Chief?"
Old John didn't stop walking. He just turned his back and raised his hand slightly. His voice was deep and heavy: "It's all because of you, little brat. I'm going to go and discuss this with the old guys in the nearby villages."
Su Lin was slightly stunned, then a look of joy appeared on his face.
Is this... a promise?
"By the way, what do you think..."
Old John paused and said, "Blue Silver Holy Village, how about this name?"
Old John has some influence in the villages around Notting and has good relations with many village chiefs.
With him on board, everything went smoothly. The only possible obstacle was the Holy Soul Village.
Old Jack, the village chief of Holy Soul Village, was very proud that his village had once produced a Soul Sage, and he often boasted about it. Old John couldn't stand him the most.
Over the years, the two have been bickering and competing with each other.
In the past, Old Jack always had the upper hand. After all, Thatched Village had never produced a Soul Sage, let alone a Soul Emperor, so they had no confidence in arguing.
Now that Su Lin has become a formal Soul Master, Old John can be proud of himself. No matter how glorious the Holy Soul Village was in the past, there is not a single Soul Master in the village now.
However, the conflict between the two was limited to this, and it was not enough to make Old Jack go against the will of the villagers and go against the money.
One Silver Soul Coin a week is considered a high salary for ordinary villagers who are not Soul Masters, and many people are scrambling to do it.
