My Fairy Raising Game

Chapter 4 Filial Piety is Always on His Mind

Upon arriving at the servants' quarters, because of their connection to Hou Yong, Shen Yu and his companion went directly to Hou Yong's father, Hou Youde, a slightly overweight middle-aged man.

"Uncle Hou, I plan to hire a handyman to help me manage my business, a long-term position. Age is fine, but preferably someone with a family, reliable and steady. I'll also hire five servants to do the work, and two diligent and discreet ordinary women to take care of my daily needs."

Shen Yu put forward his requirements.

Shen Yu is very cautious when it comes to hiring!

If he hadn't been lucky enough to activate the simulation game during the attack five years ago, he wouldn't be alive today.

The murderer has not yet been brought to justice and may even be lurking in the shadows watching him. Under these circumstances, Shen Yu has no choice but to be careful.

Hou Youde pondered for a moment and said, "Nephew, hiring so many people must be quite expensive. It will cost at least twenty-four spirit stones per month."

Twenty-four spirit stones can buy more than twenty catties of spirit rice, enough to support the daily cultivation needs of an outer disciple.

Many outer disciples work hard for a month and earn only this much money, or even less.

"It's alright, as long as the person is suitable, I can afford the spirit stones."

Shen Yu didn't care.

Although he had spent all the savings left by his parents, Shen Yu had also saved up a sum of spirit stones over the past five years thanks to the produce from the spirit fields and medicinal fields, enough for him to squander for a while.

Hou Youde nodded: "Okay, leave it to me."

Hou Yong, standing to the side, looked at his father with a mixture of poverty and envy: "Father, I think I also need to hire someone to take care of my daily life so that I can concentrate on my cultivation."

"OK."

Hou Youde gave him a sinister look: "Tonight I'll dig up your grandfather, refine him into a corpse puppet, and have him serve you tea and water. What do you think?"

"this......"

Hou Yong shivered and gave an awkward smile:

"The old man is sleeping peacefully in the coffin, so there's really no need to disturb him."

Looking at the father and son in front of him, who were always talking about filial piety, Shen Yu couldn't help but marvel.

Hou Yong's filial piety is indeed for a reason... it's a family tradition.

Before long, Shen Yu and his two companions arrived at the backyard.

With Hou Youde's help, they quickly recruited some people.

Among these people were disciples who performed menial tasks, and others were ordinary menial tasks; there were both men and women.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Shen (Young Master)."

Upon seeing Shen Yu, the group bowed respectfully, showing a mixture of excitement and trepidation.

The path to immortality is arduous.

Even though they are in the Jade Toad Palace, for people with ordinary talents, they are now servants, and they will be servants for life.

Unless one is lucky enough to seize an opportunity and turn their fortunes around, their future is bleak, and they can see the end from the beginning.

And now, the opportunity has arrived!

Being noticed by outer disciples not only earns you spirit stones, but with good luck you might also have the chance to embark on the path of cultivation. Even if the chance is slim, it is still a chance.

Especially since they vaguely learned that Shen Yu's background was not simple, they all tried their best to show their best side, hoping to be chosen by Shen Yu.

Shen Yu first selected a middle-aged handyman disciple named Chen He. According to Hou Youde's introduction, this man was calm and reliable, and already had a wife and daughter.

Yes, having a wife and daughters is good. With such a person tied down, they have concerns and are easier to control.

Shen Yu was satisfied.

Then, he glanced at all the men and looked at the remaining women.

His character development game targets fairies, or female characters, such as beast-eared witches and long-tailed witches, but not men.

After glancing at it briefly, Shen Yu was a little disappointed.

"These people's talent is just average..."

These young women were slender and beautiful, but in Shen Yu's view, their talent labels were all gray and white, without a single cyan one.

In his simulation game classification, talents are ranked from low to high as gray, white, cyan, red, gold, and purple.

Furthermore, starting with the cyan talent, each level is further divided into three sub-levels. For example, light cyan – pure cyan – dark cyan, light red – crimson – deep red, light gold – golden gold – dark gold.

Gray represents poor spiritual capacity or too much distracting thought, making it difficult to cultivate oneself.

White talent means one can cultivate, but their aptitude and innate qualities are mediocre, with nothing outstanding. Even if they cultivate, it will be difficult for them to achieve anything.

The cyan talent is much stronger than the white talent.

For example, Shen Yu's original talent, "Outstanding comprehension, one in a hundred (light blue)," is a blue talent, meaning that his comprehension is relatively outstanding, one in a hundred, and he can barely be considered a minor genius.

However, the Jade Toad Palace's thousands of outer disciples were all recruited from various states in the Southern Frontier, making it a place teeming with talent, including many with cyan-level talent. Shen Yu was not particularly outstanding among them.

Red talents are even rarer.

They either have a special physique or amazing comprehension; they are true cultivation geniuses.

Shen Yu had anticipated that he wouldn't find any promising candidates among the women in front of him, and although he was a little disappointed, he didn't care too much.

As for appearance...

These young women were indeed very beautiful, with exquisite figures.

However, Shen Yu wasn't very interested.

No matter how beautiful she is, can she compare to Yuan Xuejiao?

Can it be eaten as food?

He's not Zhu Can.

"You...you...you, and the two of you."

Shen Yu glanced at the list and quickly made his choice.

Of the five people working in the herb garden and spirit field, he chose five young men who looked reliable and hardworking.

Shen Yu didn't choose any of the smiling, alluring women who seemed eager to throw themselves at him. Instead, he chose two women who appeared quiet and reserved, dressed in thin, shabby clothes.

Those who were chosen were naturally overjoyed.

Those who were not chosen were disappointed and dejected. Some of the women even looked at Shen Yu with resentment, but dared not say anything.

After handing over the spirit stones and agreeing with Hou Youde on the time for these people to work, Shen Yu and Hou Yong left the servants' quarters.

"Chang'an, did you see that girl next to you just now...? Her appearance is actually quite similar to Senior Sister Qi..."

Hou Yong was very excited on the way.

"Yeah?"

Shen Yu glanced at Xiao Chunan, who had been holding back his frustration for a long time: "Since you like her so much, why not hire her as your personal maid?"

"Will this work?"

Hou Yong hesitated, "If Senior Sister Qi finds out, won't she be angry with me?"

"..."

This guy is hopeless... Shen Yu shook his head and sighed, then suddenly had an idea and looked at the corner to his right.

A young woman dressed in a moon-white silk skirt, with delicate silver lotus patterns embroidered on the hem, walked by.

This woman was exceptionally beautiful, a true beauty, with a voluptuous figure and skin as white as jade.

Especially noteworthy is the red mole between her eyebrows, as crimson as blood, which contrasts sharply with her jade-white skin, making the woman appear dignified and holy, like a fairy descended from heaven, untouched by worldly concerns, transcendent and untainted by dust.

The women Shen Yu had just seen were all beautiful, but compared to this woman, they all seemed ordinary and common.
