Chapter 131 – Florida Man Invents Laser-Shooting Matchlock Rifles to Make Anime Character "Tanya Von Degurechaff" Real

Three days after the mystic realm season ended, Hua Jiashan personally escorted his subordinates to submit to Leo. Coincidentally, Dongfang Mei also arrived at the same time and parked their ship nearby.

Both Hua Jiashan and Dongfang Mei dryly laughed even though they would serve a stranger from now on.

Leo and Wu Buyi welcomed them at the east road, 100 meters away from the apartment. They also prepared welcoming gifts for the new workers.

"You're finally here," Mocked Wu Buyi.

"…Yeah."

Han Hao and Han Meng bitterly smiled while they stood in front of Wu Buyi. They were embarrassed that they weren't as decisive as him.

Hua Jiashan no longer looked sad anymore. He smiled and saluted Leo, "Please take care of us, Lord Florida Man!"

Dongfang Mei was the same. She glanced at her young disciples and hoped that Leo wouldn't bully them, "Our fate is in your hands. Please guide us, Lord Florida Man."

Leo swept his eyes across the field of 100 attractive maidens, who seemed to be in their teens. He then glanced at the crowd of male disciples. The latter group already lost their cool, and they drooled like a monkey who had never seen bananas. He was worried about their future.

For the sake of the female workers' safety, Leo gave them a little privilege.

"Dongfang Mei, is it? You will be in charge of all female workers here. The entire building is yours. There are about 40 rooms there, so some of you will have to share rooms. Decide how you share the rooms yourself."

Dongfang Mei and Xu Nuan were pleasantly surprised. They gazed at the building that Leo pointed at.

.

Employee Apartment Level 9

Apartment Size – (3/10)

Apartment Quality – (6/10)

[Upgrade] – 10,000 Years of Lifespan

.

The apartment had been upgraded to level 9, and its quality was slightly improved. The plant walls were covered with wallpapers while the linoleum mats were smooth and seamless. Every room also came with a pre-installed air-conditioner and a heater.

The girls were glad that they didn't need to camp outside or build a new shelter. They brought their belongings to the building and explored their new living quarters.

Xu Nuan took charge of exploring each room. She received the room keys from Leo, and she went inside to see where her disciples would live.

The interior of each room and the space exceeded Xu Nuan's expectations. Each room was over 50 square meters, and Leo had already installed basic furniture for them. Two wooden bunk beds, four desks, four cabinets, and one refrigerator were present in every room.

Leo proceeded to teach Xu Nuan and her people about the apartment's electricity system and the toilet. He flipped the light switches and showed her how the air conditioners and heaters worked. He even explained what the refrigerators could do.

"Four people can share one room by standard, but you can decide if you want to stuff four or more people in the same room. Also, I have already upgraded the refrigerators for you, so you don't have to worry about the electricity bills. Just don't throw rotten food or wet trash in there and forget about it. I'll be pissed if you ruin those!"

"…"

"The light switches are easy to operate. You just have to flip it on when you need a light source during nighttime. I have also sealed most of the electrical outlets. As long as you don't remove the covers and stick your fingers in there, you won't get zapped to death."

"…"

"About the bathrooms and tap water, do remind your people not to overly rely on them as your drinking water source. I tried that, and the water still smells a bit fishy. If you need drinking water, take it from the main general store's building. The water there is a lot cleaner and it doesn't smell. Oh, you know how to use the toilets, don't you?"

"…"

Xu Nuan was so flabbergasted that she couldn't come up with the right questions to ask Leo. She had never seen a sect or a clan using unique artifacts to improve their quality of life as they usually used them to boost their combat prowess instead.

Even if they were useful in random situations, most cultivators always drain every artifact's residual Qi and throw them away when they no longer provided Qi for them.

Secondly, Xu Nuan sensed thick lightning Qi from the electrical outlets. Every room was a perfect living quarters for the big sect's executive members as they provided endless Qi to the residents. She was stunned that Leo nonchalantly shared the precious living quarters with her people.

"That will be all," Leo cut the coaching short as he had a lot of work to do. "For today, get yourself familiar with your new home. If you need food, go pick a random fruit or veggie from the farms around here. If there is no food, go check the granaries near Wu Buyi's house. There should be a lot of potatoes in there if Cat hasn't eaten all of them. As for drinking water, as I said, take them from the general store."

"…"

"Is there any question?"

The girls no longer listened to Leo. Everybody cheered as they started picking their rooms without waiting for Dongfang Mei or Xu Nuan's instructions. The two elders also forgot about Leo as they were still stunned by the endless supply of lightning Qi.

At first, the teenage maidens didn't notice the Qi source. But when they lingered in the rooms for five minutes, their sharp senses picked up the Qi insignia of the lightning element Qi strands. Unknowingly, they stopped making noises to cultivate the Qi.

The group settled down, and the girls got quiet.

Seeing that the girls adapted well, Leo left them alone for the day. He returned to the Life Sword Sect's group to give them a new place to live.

Directly north of the girl's apartment was another identical building, which Leo had unlocked after the general store had reached level 9.

It was the second apartment building, where Leo had prepared for Hua Jiashan's group.

When Leo returned to the sword sect's people, he made a new rule.

"Alright, boys. As you can see, the apartment on the front is the girl's dorm. As for you horny sausages, you live in the back. I expect you to respect the girl's privacy and distance. I don't mind if some of you pursue them. But if you cross the line, your ass is fired, okay?"

In short, Leo set up a line that the boys couldn't cross. He treated them like hormone-driven 13-year-old teens, who had never seen a woman in their entire lives.

Even though Leo yelled at the men, they barely listened to him. Some of the disciples still eyed the gorgeous disciples of the sanctuary.

Leo deeply sighed. He passed a paper fan to Wu Buyi. The latter received it and nodded as he knew what Leo wanted to do.

PA!

Then…

PA!

PA!

PA!

Several crisp slaps could be heard throughout the domain as Wu Buyi smacked the heads of horny disciples. Even Han Hao, Han Meng, and Tiger Swordsman were slapped.

"AHEM!"

Again, Leo tried to get their attention. He repeated what he said earlier. Then, he added a bait to entice the boys to work harder and become gentlemen.

Leo ejected broken lightsabers, which he had obtained from the broken spaceship. He then activated one that he owned.

A rainbow lightsaber was activated, releasing a loud buzz-hum noise.

"!!!"

Hua Jiashan widened his eyes in shock. Tiger Swordsman dropped his jaw and drooled in envy. Even Han Meng rubbed his eyes several times as he couldn't comprehend what he just saw.

"L-Lord Florida Man. What is that?!" Asked Hua Jiashan.

After getting their attention, Leo baited them.

"This is an example of a monthly reward for the best employee of my store! It's called EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH!"

"E-Employee of the month?"

"That's right. All you have to do is to contribute the most, just like how you contribute to your sect."

"Oh!"

"The judgment criteria will be how efficient you work, how much impact your contribution is, and how many people or customers you manage to bring to my store!"

"Oh!"

"And most importantly, the employee of the month must not commit any taboo of my store, such as taking advantage of the weak, harassing women, bullying a child, or committing vile acts that trouble your colleagues, commoners, or other customers. If I catch you violating a girl or someone, your rewards will be confiscated, and I'll kick you out of my domain!"

"OH!!"

Finally, the boys understood what Leo wanted. They were eager to start working right away.

"For now, your shelter will be that apartment over there. Four men to each room! I don't care how you allocate your men, but I don't want to see a random young master occupying a room to himself. Regardless of their statuses, they MUST share the rooms!"

Wu Buyi and everybody saluted and bowed to Leo. Even Hua Jiashan lowered his head and guided his former subordinates to the building.

However, as there were more people from Life Sword Sect, there weren't enough rooms for the men. After assigning 160 former deacons and elders to the rooms, they ran out of a place to sleep.

In the end, a thousand inner disciples and outer disciples were without shelter.

Leo was ready for such a scenario. He guided the disciples to his general store.

The current building was three story-tall. It became an empty shopping mall with nothing to sell. However, Leo could use it for another purpose.

Leo brought the young men to the third floor, where there was nothing but blank partitioned rooms and stores. Then, he started purchasing cheap beds from his online store and threw them into the blank rooms.

After spending almost 5,000 years of lifespan, Leo provided the young men basic needs, such as warm spring beds, bed sheets, blankets, pillows, towels, soaps, shampoos, and a set of uniforms. He also allocated the third floor's public toilets as their exclusive bathrooms.

It took a whole day for Leo to reeducate the newcomers. Gao Yan also came to teach them about the toilets and the new common sense in this domain.

.

.

The day was long, but hard work was well-rewarded. Leo stood on top of the general store building, gazing at his shopping mall empire.

DING

<Current Lifespan – 176,127 Years…>

Talismans provided a lot of lifespans. Even though Leo had used a lot to upgrade all of his buildings to level 9, he still had some leftovers.

"It's time."

Leo went back into the general store's building, where he had built a new facility inside.

On the second floor, there was a new workshop, which Leo had secretly constructed. It occupied the northeast corner of the department store.

.

Gunsmith Workshop Level 9

Gunsmith Mannequin (1/1)

Handloading Mannequin (1/1)

Firearm Technology (2/6)

Product Quality (2/6)

Structure Quality (3/6)

[Upgrade] – 10,000 Years of Lifespan.

.

Two wooden mannequins tirelessly worked inside their store, building ancient firearms for Leo.

Leo visited the workshop inside his mall and checked the finished product. He picked up a matchlock rifle and flipped it around. Then, he tested it by pulling the trigger without using any gunpowder.

CLICK

Nothing was shot out. However, the trigger worked as intended.

Leo smiled at the product. He brought it out to the store's rooftop to test it. After bringing it outside, he patiently loaded the rifle with the gunpowder that the mannequins had provided him in the workshop. Then, Leo loaded the weapon with an essence stone, using it instead of regular bullets.

He took aim toward the north. Then, he fired.

BANG

It had a strong recoil. Leo's hands slightly jerked after the rifle fired a laser beam toward the sky. As for the essence stone, it disappeared along with the laser beam.

Leo shrugged as he found the shot average. He loaded a new bullet and gunpowder sack. Then, he added his Qi to the bullet and rifle.

BOOM

The matchlock rifle exploded as it was overloaded. The gunpowder and the essence stone created a flame blast, burning Leo's shirt. Fortunately, his new pants and underwear didn't catch flame.

After causing the misfire, Leo sighed.

"I need new testers. Maybe, I should use assign new employees to the workshop and have them test the rifles."

Leo narrowed his eyes. Although he had a new source of lifespan income, he didn't forget about the core of his shop domain's perks.

"I also need new merchandise to scam others. Well, I might as well only sell essence stones for lifespan while I sell my items for essence stones. That way, I can get more profits!"
