After that, the three of them looked around the empty buildings in the city, but Xia Tian found it difficult to make a choice because all the buildings they saw were equally strategic. However, their prices varied significantly from one another, and he didn't have enough spiritual stones to rent them, let alone buy them.
Huang Xiaoyan let out a soft sigh and said to Xia Tian, "Tian, you can use my spiritual stones, and you don't need to worry about returning them. What's important now is that you buy a building and open your shop in this realm, especially since we'll be staying in this realm for quite a long time."
"But—"
"No buts." Huang Xiaoyan pressed a palm to Xia Tian's mouth and shook her head at him. "Haven't you already accepted me as your woman? Since you have accepted me as your woman, please let me help you buy the building. Besides, that price is too cheap for me, and you don't need to think about returning my spiritual stones to me."
"Xiaoyan is right, husband." Bai Yinyue spoke as she nodded. "You are no longer alone in this life, and you have all of us by your side. We are your wives, so please let us help you for our future in this realm."
Xia Tian sighed inwardly and pulled Huang Xiaoyan's hand. "Alright, we'll use your spiritual stones, but we don't need to buy such an expensive building for our shop. I wanted to buy that simple building not because it was the cheapest, but because it was in the most strategic location, with a wide road in front. Besides, we don't need to renovate it anymore because the building is already ready to be used as a shop, so I think that's the most appropriate choice for us now."
"Alright." Huang Xiaoyan immediately agreed with that.
They went straight to the two-story building that Xia Tian had mentioned before, and Huang Xiao Yan paid the price according to the owner's request, which was ten million high-grade spiritual stones.
Huang Xiaoyan smiled after Xia Tian got the building documents. "Compared to this realm, a shop this size is much pricier in my realm, and the price of a building of this size can reach twenty million superior-grade spiritual stones."
"Haha." Xia Tian laughed wryly because Huang Xiaoyan was in the Five Divine Heavens; obviously the price of buildings there was much more expensive compared to the Nine Clouds World, which was located in the upper realm.
"What are your next plans for this shop? What items will you sell here?" Huang Xiaoyan asked.
Bai Yinyue immediately expressed his idea. "What if we use the first floor for your shop and the second floor for the restaurant, husband?"
"Hmm?" Xia Tian thought as he walked from the first floor to the second, with the two women following behind him. "I think we should use them the other way around, the first floor for our restaurant and the second floor for our shop. I won't have many items for sale in our shop; I will only sell a few specific pills here, as selling all my pills in this realm could lead to significant problems. This way, our restaurant customers can look up to the second floor to check out the available items while waiting for their food to be prepared, and they won't waste much of their time in our shop."
"What about your three wines? Do you plan to sell all of them in this realm?" Huang Xiaoyan asked again.
"Yes." Xia Tian replied with a nod. "In the past, I didn't give my tree wines away freely, and only those close to me have tasted them, so it's no problem if we sell them here. Besides, the people in this realm seem to really enjoy drinking wine, and I noticed many shops selling it on the streets earlier. However, we won't sell too much of the drunken Immortal wine, and we will sell it little by little to certain people, especially those who have a high reputation in this realm."
"Why is that?" Bai Yinyue and Huang Xiaoyan asked at the same time.
Xia Tian raised his hand and showed them number three. "First, the drunken immortal wine is my primary wine, and it tastes truly delicious. If we sell it in limited quantities, we can sell it for a fairly high price, and that's the best option right now. Second, my moon wine and hundred fruit wine are no less delicious, and I'm sure buyers will enjoy them compared to other wines out there. Third, my wines will only be complementary ingredients, and our main target is to sell dishes using our secret spices, which have proven to be very popular in the lower realm."
"I see." Bai Yinyue nodded in understanding. "In that case, I'll discuss with my other sisters the menu we'll be selling in our restaurant, and I'll need their help cooking all of those dishes."
"Hmm?" Xia Tian turned to Bai Yinyue. "Do you want to cook by yourself like in the past? Wouldn't it be better if you looked for some chefs to help you in the kitchen and some waiters to handle the customers?"
Bai Yinyue shook her head slightly. "The salaries of the chefs and waiters in this realm are definitely quite high, and we don't need to waste spiritual stones on their salaries. For now, my sisters and I can handle everything ourselves, and we'll look for some chefs and waiters once our restaurant is running normally."
"You—"
"No." Bai Yinyue rejected Huang Xiaoyan directly. "Indeed, we can use spiritual stones to find chefs and waiters, but I would rather not do that, and I want us all to work together for our future. Besides, my husband's cultivation isn't completely stable yet, and he won't be able to enter seclusion for now. For now, we'll focus on our new life in this realm while waiting for his cultivation to stabilize. We'll look for new chefs and waiters to manage this restaurant once his cultivation is stable, so we can enter seclusion again."
"Alright." Huang Xiaoyan agreed.
"Let's go back! We have to tell the others about this."
