Chapter 62 The Cloud Brewing Bamboo Project
After forming a contract with the supreme-grade wine Gu, Shi Zhen sat cross-legged and began absorbing the surrounding soul power for his first cultivation session.
Seeing that Shi Zhen's cultivation was proceeding without any problems, Shi Lin found a place to sit down and then silently protected Shi Zhen.
A dozen minutes later, Shi Zhen opened his eyes, his gaze filled with excitement.
"Son, I did it! I did it!" Shi Zhen jumped up excitedly, grabbed Shi Lin's shoulders, and his face was flushed with excitement.
"Congratulations, Father! But you should also try to cultivate more and improve your cultivation level. If things get too difficult, just hand over the brewery to your subordinates." Shi Lin clasped his hands in a fist salute to Shi Zhen and then said with a smile.
Shi Zhen also tried to calm himself down as quickly as possible. More than 20 years had passed, and he was actually able to become a Soul Master at almost 30 years old. Moreover, he had just successfully entered a state of cultivation. This was what excited Shi Zhen the most.
Seeing Shi Zhen's excited expression, Shi Lin didn't say anything more.
Although Shi Zhen is a bit old to start cultivating, with Shi Lin's full support, he will definitely be able to become a powerful Soul Master.
However, the premise is that Shi Zhen still needs to work hard in his cultivation. If Shi Zhen's cultivation time is too short, Shi Lin will not be able to help Shi Zhen improve his soul power level.
"Alright, I'll do that. It's a pity there are too few capable people in the family," Shi Zhen said with a sigh.
Although most of the people in Shijia Village are Shi Zhen's relatives, only a few are truly capable, and these people cannot be fully trusted. Therefore, Shi Zhen has to do many things personally.
"Dad, how about this? We'll contact a few merchant caravans and sell our liquor to them at a 10% discount. We don't care where they sell it. That way, we only need to manage the brewery," Shi Lin said to Shi Zhen after thinking for a moment.
There's nothing we can do about it; the Shi family isn't very large.
"That's feasible. Our family business is quite large, and we can form our own caravan to prevent problems from arising with other caravans," Shi Zhen nodded in agreement.
"Alright, Dad, you can figure it out yourself. Focus on your cultivation. I have a lot of things here to increase your cultivation speed. You can use them once your soul power level breaks through to the next level," Shi Lin said to Shi Zhen with a smile.
Shi Lin still has many high-grade bitter wine Gu in his possession, enough for his family to use.
"Okay, by the way, let's not talk about this anymore. Are we going to eat later?" Shi Zhen tucked the premium wine Gu into his pocket, then looked up and asked Shi Lin.
"I'm not eating anymore. I'll take a shower and then go back to sleep. Dad, you should think carefully about what to do next and focus on your cultivation." Shi Lin smiled and shook his head, then stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Shi Zhen, and turned to leave the secret room.
After watching Shi Lin leave, Shi Zhen immediately sat down on the ground and began to cultivate. He wanted to seize the time to cultivate.
Originally lacking the talent for cultivation, Shi Zhen had already given up. Now that he has the opportunity to cultivate, he must seize the time to cultivate and strive to break through to a higher level.
Moreover, Shi Zhen was aware of his son's abilities; the rapid increase in Lin Yu and Shi An's soul power levels was his son's doing.
Since he can help others increase their cultivation speed, wouldn't that also make up for Shi Zhen's cultivation speed, and he might become a powerful Soul Master in the future?
As for Shi Lin, after taking a shower, he went back to his bedroom and fell asleep.
The next morning, Shi Lin got up early.
"Home bed is still the most comfortable." Shi Lin stretched comfortably, feeling a sense of relaxation.
Next, Shi Lin quickly washed up, changed into loose clothes, and went to the laboratory.
Last night, Shi An and Lin Yu simply sorted and stored the materials, and the room did not appear dirty or messy.
Shi Lin went to a shelf and took down the bamboo stalk of Yunniang bamboo, which still had tender buds on it.
Shi Lin wanted to use the tender shoots on the bamboo to cultivate Cloud Brew Bamboo, since he had not found any mutated Cloud Brew Bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest of the Soul Hunter Forest.
Next, Shi Lin took out the flowerpot he had prepared beforehand, buried the bamboo stalks with their tender buds in the soil, and then watered it.
Then, use the bamboo leaf Gu to release the spiritual energy of bamboo, which will act on the tender shoots to help them grow as much as possible.
Soon, Shi Lin had cultivated more than a dozen pots of Yunniang bamboo. He simply placed these bamboos in flowerpots and waited for them to grow.
"If I have a stable supply of mutated Cloud Brewing Bamboo, I can refine enough top-grade wine Gu, and perhaps cultivate a group of loyal soul masters," Shi Lin said earnestly, stroking his chin.
After settling the Cloud Brewed Bamboo, Shi Lin returned to the secret chamber with the bamboo leaves and insect soul beasts he had brought back from the Soul Hunting Forest, preparing to refine some bamboo leaf Gu in the chamber.
To quickly acquire a forest of Cloud Brewed Bamboo, a large number of Bamboo Leaf Gu are needed to accelerate the ripening of the Cloud Brewed Bamboo.
Therefore, Shi Lin brought back a lot of bamboo leaves and insect-like soul beasts from the Soul Hunter Forest this time, with the aim of refining a large number of bamboo leaf Gu to cultivate Cloud Brewed Bamboo.
Next, Shi Lin began to refine the Gu worms.
Three hours later, Shi Lin glanced at the green bamboo leaf Gu in the jar in front of him.
After three hours of hard work, Shi Lin successfully refined six top-grade bamboo leaf Gu and sixteen high-grade bamboo leaf Gu.
"It seems I'll have to venture into the Soul Hunting Forest to capture some insect-type soul beasts when I get the chance. Refining these top-grade Gu worms is just too satisfying." Shi Lin looked at the top-grade Gu worm in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.
Shi Lin opened the bamboo tube at his waist and put all the Gu worms into the tube.
Top-grade and high-grade Gu worms will not attack each other, so they can be placed together.
After setting the Gu worms aside, Shi Lin began writing a cultivation plan for the Cloud Brewing Bamboo.
Shi Lin couldn't do everything himself; he still needed to delegate authority to his subordinates.
Shi Lin plans to entrust the cultivation of Yunniang bamboo to Lin Yu, and he can also purchase some female slaves to give to Lin Yu for cultivation.
That way, there will be more people who can use his services in the future.
Shi Lin wrote down his thoughts in a plan and had someone give it to Lin Yu. He didn't plan to deal with the rest.
After all, he has people under his command, so there's no need to do everything himself.
After leaving the secret room, Shi Lin found Shi An and asked him to deliver the flowerpots, bamboo leaf Gu, and the plan to Lin Yu by carriage.
"Brother An, give these things to Lin Yu," Shi Lin instructed Shi An.
"Rest assured, young master, I will personally escort it and deliver it to Lin Yu's hands," Shi An replied, then respectfully addressed Shi Lin.
"Go ahead, be careful," Shi Lin said, patting Shi An on the shoulder.
Shi An bowed again, then turned and boarded the carriage, preparing to leave.
Shi Lin scratched his head and then walked towards his room.
