What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

The shouts of Liu Bo and the others caused the water in Xu Tianlin's teacup to ripple.

"Young people these days are so ignorant."

"It's no big deal, why are you making such a fuss?"

Xu Tianlin blew on the steaming teacup, took a sip, and then turned to look at Xiao Qiong beside him.

"Who are these children that the Lord of the Manor brought?"

"Students from Cangyun Prefecture who will participate in the martial arts competition three months later."

Xiao Qiong responded calmly.

"So, they're the elite of Cangyun Prefecture?"

Xu Tianlin's eyes lit up.

In the world of martial arts, cultivation is a money-burning endeavor.

Therefore, elites = wealthy = high-quality customers!

"Elite?"

Xiao Qiong pursed her lips, tore open a new piece of bubble gum, and chewed it.

"These are the only people that Cangyun Prefecture can barely offer."

"In the Human Race's Twelve Prefectures Youth Martial Arts Competition, Cangyun Prefecture has consistently ranked last year."

"The federal government's resource allocation is decreasing year by year, and the quality of students is getting worse year by year. If we lose this competition again, Cangyun Prefecture will truly become a martial arts wasteland."

Xu Tianlin gently rubbed the warm edge of the teacup with his fingertips, his mind racing.

Since Xiao Qiong was able to bring these young people here, it means that these people are not bad.

With the addition of ten times the training rooms at their resort, three months would be enough time for them to make a qualitative leap in strength!

When the martial arts competition begins, won't it dazzle everyone?

If I accidentally get first place or something.

Isn't the resort's live-in guy?

Xu Tianlin's eyes grew brighter the more he thought about it.

Not bad.

This can also be considered a case of the rich helping the poor.

Xu Tianlin keenly sensed the huge business opportunity in this.

Even though this is the perilous core area of ​​A4, those martial artists who crave power will do everything they can to break down the threshold of the resort.

Xu Tianlin put down the teacup, the porcelain bottom striking the wooden cabinet with a soft sound.

"In about three months, including breaking through the bottleneck, these 50 people should be able to reach the Thousand Jun Realm."

"Then I congratulate you in advance, Lord of the Prefecture. Under your wise leadership, Cangyun Prefecture will achieve a historic breakthrough."

Xu Tianlin said with a smile.

"It's not three months, it's only one month."

Xiao Qiong stopped chewing the candy.

He spread his hands outwards, leaned back, and pressed his body tightly against the back of the chair.

"I have no money."

Decisive, efficient, and without the slightest hesitation.

Xu Tianlin's smile froze instantly.

"The university has limited funding."

"The credits I just sent you were from special funds squeezed out by Cangyun Prefecture, and they're only enough to cover the monthly room and board for fifty people."

"Thirty days later, this old man won't be able to scrape together a single penny."

Xu Tianlin's eyelids twitched twice, and his breathing paused briefly.

A month? That won't do!

His gaze was slightly lowered.

The semi-transparent system panel, visible only to him, flickered rapidly at the edge of his retina, with a row of bright red countdowns at the top that was particularly glaring.

There are less than three months left before the system self-destructs.

After finding out the exact date of the competition, Xu Tianlin quickly calculated the timeline in his mind.

If these fifty students only stay for a month and then leave because they can't afford the rent, there will be a two-month gap between the start of the Youth Martial Arts Competition and the start of the competition.

From Xiao Qiong's last appearance, Xu Tianlin guessed that the matter of the Heavenly Jar had most likely been suppressed.

Regardless of whether it was to protect Luo Yurou or for some other reason.

His previous plan was only half successful.

Customers came, but it wasn't as bustling as he had imagined.

and so.

During these two idle months, the resort is likely to have no income whatsoever.

After the competition officially ends, after these students make a name for themselves on the stage, after the news slowly spreads, and finally after those martial artists who have come from afar travel great distances to find their way here...

I'm afraid we're a bit late!

"hiss--"

"I should have known better than to plant the Burning Tree."

Xu Tianlin felt a bit of a toothache.

He picked up the teacup, took a big gulp of warm water, his Adam's apple bobbing as he forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart.

We must change our strategy.

We absolutely cannot allow these students to comfortably lie around for a whole month after only paying a basic room fee.

"We must do everything we can to keep them here for three months and make them spend like crazy during those three months."

Xu Tianlin's eyes began to turn green.

Now that people have moved in, if we don't squeeze every drop of oil out of them like peanuts in an oil press...

That's a waste!

Waste is shameful.

What should we do?

No money?

If you don't have money, go earn some!

Xu Tianlin frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Leaving aside the very few students from privileged backgrounds, the vast majority of students come from ordinary families.

Those with money probably transferred to other universities within Wuhan University.

Currently, the only way for them to earn credits at the resort seems to be through the bounty posters Candice has put up in the courtyard.

But this path is completely impassable.

Candice's money was a pre-deposit, which he had already spent on unlocking the spa center and expanding the guest rooms, and it was all gone.

Therefore, we must enable them to obtain resources from outside!

The battlefield of the heavens is an inexhaustible treasure trove of alien materials!

Hunting other races outside and bringing back their materials and essence to sell to the Myriad Races Bank for money is the real source of new income.

but……

Xu Tianlin turned to look outside the glass door. Outside was the core area of ​​A4, filled with a menacing aura.

This group of students, all from the Rock Realm, simply pushed open the door and went out, dying on the spot without any intervention from the alien races.

Safety issues have become the biggest deadlock.

Xu Tianlin brought up the system panel again.

My gaze fell on the balance in the upper right corner: 20000 construction points. This was the monthly rent I had just received.

What can you do with this little bit of money?

His finger slid rapidly down the virtual screen, passing over a series of gray, locked facility icons.

Suddenly, my fingers stopped.

[Unlock the Concierge Department, unlock the Concierge Teleport Scroll, requires 1 construction points.]

The concierge sells resort conveyor belts that can safely transport customers to designated areas.

Safe, efficient, and with no motion sickness throughout the journey, providing a fantastic experience.

"The teleportation scroll can solve the problem of these people traveling to and from the resort."

Xu Tianlin's gaze then fell upon the life-giving spring.

[The Life-Giving Spring can heal all injuries in a very short time, nourish the meridians, and slightly improve cultivation aptitude. Unlocking it requires 5 construction points.]

A feasible business plan gradually took shape in Xu Tianlin's mind.

The students bought scrolls to suit the areas where their cultivation level was appropriate.

Hunt down alien races and collect materials and essence to earn money.

Use the rolls to return to the resort and sell them through Wanzu Bank.

"When you're tired, you can cultivate in your room; when you have too much malevolent energy, you can go to the spa; when you're injured, you can soak in the hot spring; when you're bored, you can open a jar."

Xu Tianlin's lips curled into a cunning smile.

"A perfect closed loop!"

"However, the problem now is that I only have enough construction points to unlock the concierge department."

"To unlock the Life-Giving Spring, we still need more than 4 construction points."

Xu Tianlin turned his gaze to Xiao Qiong, who was blowing bubbles to the side.

"A dignified manor lord should be able to come up with 400 million credits, right?"

"Hehehehe..."
