C20 The Sage Bai Ziqian!

How costly is real estate in Irethhone?

For the average person, a lifetime of hard work might just be enough to afford a bathroom.

Jiang Shi nearly believed Chen Hao had lost his mind when he abruptly announced his intention to purchase a villa.

After all, this was a renowned upscale neighborhood, home exclusively to the wealthy. Even with limited knowledge of the housing market, Jiang Shi understood that her savings wouldn't come close to securing a residence in such an area, not even if she saved for another century.

Chen Hao's family was not poor, but they certainly couldn't afford a house in this district.

"Chen Hao, are you feeling okay?" Jiang Shi asked, concerned by his fervent demeanor.

Chen Hao caught himself and moderated his excitement.

However, his intense reaction was understandable—he had discovered a Clairvoyance!

The resurgence of spiritual energy in the world was no random occurrence.

A Clairvoyance was akin to a lake's spring, the wellspring of spiritual energy.

In a few years, the Clairvoyance would be pivotal in shaping the power dynamics of the new world.

For a major power to thrive amidst fierce competition, a Clairvoyance was essential.

Since spiritual energy emanated from the Clairvoyance, the concentration of energy there was exponentially denser than anywhere else.

Under normal circumstances, Chen Hao would need to rest for ten minutes every hour of cultivation. And after being refined by the Aetherfruit, his cultivation time would be even more limited due to his rapid absorption rate, as the surrounding spiritual energy couldn't keep up with his needs during the early period of its resurgence.

But near a Clairvoyance, it was a different story. Chen Hao could absorb spiritual energy continuously without depleting the surrounding energy, and the energy absorbed was much purer, significantly speeding up his cultivation progress.

With the revival of spiritual energy just beginning, no one yet recognized the importance of a Clairvoyance or could even identify one.

For Chen Hao, seizing the Clairvoyance now was an opportunity not to be missed.

After some time, even if he had the money, Chen Hao likely wouldn't stand a chance against those well-funded powerhouses.

Clairvoyance was scarce and incredibly difficult to find. Missing this opportunity meant he had no idea when another would arise.

"Shishi, how much do you have in savings?" Chen Hao inquired of Jiang Shi, having made up his mind.

"Ah? You're serious?" Jiang Shi was at a loss for words but managed to respond, "You know I haven't been working long, and so far... I've only managed to save a little under twenty thousand yuan."

"Hand it over to me."

"Oh." Confused by Chen Hao's sudden request, Jiang Shi nonetheless transferred all her savings to him via mobile banking.

Chen Hao, no longer in the mood to wander, dropped Jiang Shi off at school and, after some thought, headed to the women's dormitory.

"I'm here to see Mo Huaixi."

The dorm supervisor gave Chen Hao a knowing look, and soon after, Mo Huaixi came downstairs.

"Hehe, I knew you'd come looking for me. I'm all set. I don't have to go back to the dorm tonight~" Mo Huaixi said with a flirtatious giggle, her cheeks flushed with anticipation.

Chen Hao offered a courteous smile. "Could I possibly borrow some money from you?"

"No problem, I'll cover the cost of the room," Mo Huaixi said through gritted teeth, frustrated that her financial advances were still not enough to satisfy Chen Hao.

What room?

Chen Hao's face contorted in an effort to maintain a smile. "The money is for something important. Don't worry, I'll pay you back within a month."

Realizing he was serious, Mo Huaixi's face fell. "How much do you need?"

"How much can you spare?" Chen Hao shamelessly pushed the boundaries of borrowing money, intending to take everything she had.

Mo Huaixi tallied up her funds, "Let's see, my allowance, New Year's money, um, roughly a hundred thousand."

Chen Hao was taken aback.

A college girl with a hundred thousand yuan from allowances and New Year's money.

Chen Hao suddenly realized that the wealthy might indeed have the power to do as they pleased.

"Um..." He felt a bit sheepish, but Chen Hao spoke up anyway, "Could I borrow the whole amount?"

"Hmm? Including me? Of course, you don't even need to borrow—I'd give myself to you if you wanted!"

"I'll just take the money, thanks..."

Finally, with Mo Huaixi looking on forlornly and with a touch of bitterness, Chen Hao managed to borrow a hundred thousand yuan and swiftly made his exit from the women's dormitory area.

Back at his apartment, Chen Hao was well aware that one hundred thousand yuan wouldn't come close to buying a brick of a villa.

Yet, this sum held the potential to generate boundless wealth for him!

"Hopefully, someone will see the value..."

The following day, Chen Hao didn't come home.

When he did return, he brought not only a heap of medicinal herbs but also an assortment of various tools.

"Phew, it all comes down to this moment!" With these items, Chen Hao had spent every last yuan he had borrowed.
