Chapter 240 Civilian Welfare
It must be said that the business of Blue Star Pavilion is really good, and the number of artificial spirit rings sold every day is at least 200. Many people from other places come all the way to Shrek City just to buy artificial spirit rings.

The most lively time of the day for the Blue Star Pavilion was the lucky draw for the common people, which was so crowded that even nobles paid a large sum of money to buy the winning common people's quota.

Seeing this, Mu Ran frowned slightly. The nobles' behavior went against his original intention, but he didn't need to worry about them for the time being.

Branches built in other major empires had troubles several times due to limited supply, but they were suppressed by Blue Star Pavilion, and business is now very good.

Closing the account book, Mu Ran felt a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before. He regarded Blue Star Pavilion as his home, and now everything in this home was thriving, how could he not be satisfied?
Thousands of miles away from Shrek City, there are some people living on the outskirts of Tiandou City: they are all low-level people serving Tiandou City, struggling to survive in the imperial capital, and living the lowest life for their families.

The house on the outskirts of the city is dilapidated. There lives a family of only three people living here, but they still live a difficult life.

The man of the house was a blacksmith working in a blacksmith shop in the city, working hard every day to earn a meager salary. The woman of the house worked as a temporary helper for a wealthy family in the city, and her job was unstable.

The family's son is eight years old this year, and he awakened his martial spirit two years ago. In order for his child to awaken his martial spirit, his father spent two months' salary before asking a second-level supervisor in the blacksmith shop for help. The child's awakened martial soul is a diamond hammer, with an innate soul power of level seven. Such a good talent, but the family has no money to cultivate it.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. The child's soul power has already reached the tenth level, but the family cannot even obtain a ten-year soul ring.

That day, the father hurried back, grabbed his son and said excitedly: "Son, Dad has a way to help you get a spirit ring."

Hearing this, the mother rushed over and said, "Dad, don't do anything stupid!"

Because of the child's talent, more than one group of people have come to persuade them to sell their son.

"No, there is really a way."

The father explained to his family the benefits of Blue Star Pavilion's artificial soul rings to civilians, and then took his son and hurried to Blue Star Pavilion's branch in Tiandou City.

There was a long queue outside the store, and those in the queue were all here to win the lottery.

In order to maintain order, the Blue Star Pavilion Tiandou City branch has specially arranged a place to queue up, so that buyers will not be affected.

An employee in a cheongsam in front of me said with a microphone, "Today's quota is only for the last three people with 100-year spirit rings. Those who are ranked after the 100th and those who do not meet the requirements, please come back tomorrow."

"Dad, what's our place in the ranking?"

"The eightieth."

The prestige of Blue Star Pavilion is sufficient, and one hundred people will leave automatically after that.

Soon, a waiter came up to the father and son holding a small transparent box.

"Sir, please draw lots."

"Son, come here!"

"Ok."

The son reached into the box and took out a small ball. He opened the ball and pulled out a piece of paper with the word "Zhong" written on it.

"Son, you are awesome, awesome!" The father was so excited that he was a little incoherent. His son's spirit ring was finally found.

"Congratulations on winning the prize. Please follow me."

The waiter led the two to a large display case in the lobby on the first floor. There were many small yellow light balls in the display case. There were even small white light balls at the bottom.

"Sir, how many years of spirit ring do you need?"

"I want a century-old one, but I don't understand." My father said, a little embarrassed.

When my father was a child, his family was even more miserable, and he couldn't find anyone to help him awaken his martial spirit. He didn't awaken his martial spirit until he was fifteen years old and worked in a blacksmith shop. He also had a diamond hammer, but unfortunately he had no soul power, and he never had the chance to be a soul master for the rest of his life.

The waiter smiled and said, "It's okay. If it's convenient, can you tell us about your child's martial soul and innate soul power? I can help you make a recommendation."

"Zhu Zi's martial soul is the same as mine, the Diamond Hammer, and his innate soul power is level seven." When he said this, my father's tone was full of pride.

The waiter continued, "I think the child's physical fitness is average, and he may not be able to withstand the impact of a spirit ring that is too strong. I recommend this to you."

As he spoke, the waiter pulled out a soul ring introduction.

Price: 200 gold soul coins.

Years: two hundred years.

Soul Beast: Wolverine.

Soul Skill: Power of Diamond. After using the soul skill, both strength and speed will increase by 10%.

Applicable soul masters: Soul masters with ordinary strong attack-type martial souls.

When he saw the price of 200 gold soul coins, his father's heart twitched. He could indeed afford 200 gold soul coins, but then the family's savings would be gone, and this was only the first soul ring!
"This spirit skill is pretty good. The cheapest 100-year spirit ring costs 100 gold soul coins, and the cheapest 10-year spirit ring costs only 10 gold soul coins."

My father was a little confused. There was a huge difference between a hundred-year spirit ring and a ten-year spirit ring. How should he choose?
"Sir, actually we also provide a free soul ring."

"Free spirit ring?"

"Yes, our Blue Star Pavilion recruits soul masters with innate soul power no less than level six for training. Your son fully meets the requirements. If you are willing to let him join the Blue Star Pavilion, we will train your son, and you don't have to worry about his soul ring in the future."

"Is it really possible?"

The waiter nodded: "The child's talent is excellent. If he is in Blue Star Pavilion, he will definitely not be buried."

My father lowered his head and thought. Blue Star Pavilion had a very good reputation among the common people, and the development of soul appliances was entirely for the common people. Those who were lucky would also receive soul appliances from Blue Star Pavilion. Artificial soul rings also provided benefits for the common people, so he had no reason not to agree.

The father touched his son's head: "I promise."

"You won't be disappointed. Please follow me."

The waiter led the two to an office and knocked on the door: "Manager Tie."

"Please come in."

When you open the door, you'll see a luxuriously and exquisitely decorated office.

My father hesitated and didn't dare to enter.

"It's okay, come in!"

"Manager Tie, this boy's martial soul is the Diamond Hammer, and his innate soul power is level seven. His father has agreed to let him join the Blue Star Pavilion."

"Yes, come and sit down."

Tie Quan invited the father and son to sit on the sofa, but the father refused repeatedly. The sofa looked expensive and he couldn't afford it.

Tie Quan smiled and said, "Look at the calluses on your hands. You must have been a blacksmith for decades!"

When it comes to his job, my father is finally less reserved.

"Yes, I have been working in the iron industry for twenty years. I am afraid I will never be able to do without it in this life."

"To be honest, my family has been blacksmiths for generations, and I have been doing this for many years. Let me introduce myself. My name is Iron Fist."

As he said that, Iron Fist stretched out his right hand.

Seeing the calluses on Tiequan's hands that were identical to his own, and seeing Tiequan's down-to-earth name, his father said repeatedly: "Hello, hello, my name is Zhao Dazhu."
