Chapter 17: A Little Advertisement

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"In the last two days, we've already issued two library cards, Junior Brother."

Once they were back at the Book Depository, Wu Fulai announced with a grin.

Issuing two library cards and receiving a deposit of twenty merit points made him very proud, so he could not help immediately boasting to Chen Shaojie about it.

"What? After so many days, we've only issued two cards?"

Chen Shaojie's eyebrows furrowed slightly. He was a little worried.

Wu Fulai was flabbergasted. Chen Shaojie's reaction was not at all in line with his expectations.

"Isn't that already a lot, Junior Brother?"

"Of course not. It's too slow."

Chen Shaojie shook his head and sighed softly, "Looks like we must think of something."

Wu Fulai was puzzled, "What's the rush, Junior Brother? I think it's already a pretty good result. Give it some time. There will definitely be more and more people coming here to apply for a card."

"You don't understand, Senior Brother."

Chen Shaojie said in a serious voice, "If not that many people come to the Book Depository, the steward won't let us keep working here every day. He'll definitely assign us other tasks. We won't be able to find such an easy job anywhere else."

Wu Fulai contemplated it and realized that Chen Shaojie was right. His good mood from before was completely gone.

That chubby face of his now showed a really serious expression. He humbly ask for advice, "So what should we do now, Junior Brother?"

"Let me think..."

Chen Shaojie rubbed his chin and started to think of a solution.

Wu Fulai looked at him with bated breath, his face full of anticipation.

"That's it!"

After a while, Chen Shaojie thumped his fist on his palm. He told Wu Fulai, "I have a solution, Senior Brother, but I'll have to trouble you with the hard work."

"Not a problem, Brother. Tell me and it shall be done."

This period of time spent in the Book Depository was the most comfortable period of time for Wu Fulai ever since he joined the lower court.

If possible, he was willing to stay here forever.

"Do this, Brother Wu..."

Chen Shaojie nodded, moved closer to Wu Fulai's ear, and started giving a long instruction.

Wu Fulai listened to Chen Shaojie's words attentively. When Chen Shaojie had finished, Wu Fulai asked with some hesitation, "Brother Chen, will this... really work?"

"Trust me, Brother Wu."

"O-Okay."

  ...

That day, all the servant disciples of House A Class 2 gathered together... except for Meng Tiancheng.

They did nothing else but repeatedly make copies of a small advertisement Chen Shaojie had thought up.

In the evening, Wu Fulai went to all the servant disciples in other classes that he was well acquainted with and distributed the ads to them too.

Wu Fulai's request was simple: he asked them to post the small ads of the Book Depository in conspicuous places while they worked.

Because Wu Fulai had a lot of friends among the servant disciples, the very next day, a large number of advertisements of the Book Depository popped up on many buildings in the Qing Yu Immortal Sect like mushrooms after the rain.

  ****

Qing Zhu Peak Book Depository

Maps, Secrets, Beauty, Wealth

We Have Everything You Need

  ****

Athough the handwriting on each advertisement was different, the content was exactly the same.

The words were simple and easy to remember. Basically, with just a single glance, you would know what it was about and would remember it.

"The Book Depository? Who posted these things here?"

On Qing Dai Peak, a female disciple of the sect had just come out of her cave, her skirt fluttering, when she saw the advertisement of the Book Depository posted in the reception pavilion next to the cave.

It piqued her curiosity. She could not help walking closer to take a look.

After she read the information on the advertisement, she hesitated. She then dismissed her intention to visit the Scripture Depository. She snapped her fingers, and a red hot flame appeared in front of her, quickly turning into a fireball about the size of a human.

The woman took a step forward and stepped nonchalantly into the blazing fire. The fireball then flew away towards Qing Zhu Peak, a crimson tail of flame trailing in its wake.

A similar scene was happening everywhere on the various peaks of the Qing Yu Mountains.

In the next few days, many Senior Brothers and Sisters from the upper court paid a visit to the Book Depository to check out what the fuss was all about.

The clean and bright new-look Book Depository with its well-organized shelves of books immediately caught their attention. The popularity of the Book Depository grew at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Wu Fulai told Chen Shaojie with satisfaction, "That was a really good move, Junior Brother."

Chen Shaojie smiled and did not say anything.

There was actually not that much originality in his idea. It was all pretty basic stuff on Earth.

The logic was simple. In order to quickly increase the popularity of the Book Depository, they had to do promotion and advertisement.

And considering their current situation, the advertising mean that had the lowest cost and the biggest effect was as simple as asking the servant disciples to help post ads everywhere.

To put it bluntly, it was a viral campaign.

Although it was a little unethical, Chen Shaojie would do it first and think of the consequences later.

Fortunately, the result was good.

In just a few days, the average number of visitors to the Book Depository had increased to over three hundred people per day.

And the number of people applying for a library card exceeded sixty for the first time. The Book Depository's name had spread.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Shaojie instructed Wu Fulai, "Brother Wu, the posting of ads cannot stop. We must keep it up."

After a pause, he explained: "A lot of visitors have only come for the novelty. After the novelty wears off, the number of visitor will certainly drop. If we want to keep the number of visitors up, we must attract even more people and issue more library cards."

"I understand. I'll go talk to the brothers and sisters in the other classes tonight and ask them to keep helping with the advertising."

"Good!"

  ...

Three more days passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Shaojie and Li Xuejiao once again went to the small cave to cultivate.

Because they already had prior experience, everything was much smoother and more natural the second time around.

Li Xuejiao now no longer put up any resistance to Chen Shaojie's attempt to feed her (the pill). When Chen Shaojie asked her to open her mouth, she would open her mouth, and when he asked her to sit down, she would sit down. She was very obedient.

After using three more Qi Attracting Pills, Li Xuejiao's cultivation had progressed greatly, and so had Chen Shaojie's.

When Chen Shaojie took out another Qi Attracting Pill to make another appointment to cultivate together, Li Xuejiao had become a bit numb to it.

She just stared blankly at Chen Shaojie's crotch. Who knew what was on her mind.

On the return journey, Chen Shaojie suddenly realized a problem.

If Li Xuejiao continued to cultivate like this, she would definitely complete the Qing Yu Body Forging Technique before he did.

After all, his cultivation level was a bit lower than Li Xuejiao's. If Li Xuejiao stopped after completing her cultivation, he would be in trouble.

Without Sister Li's WiFi, what could he do?

He could not just halt his progress right before he completed his cultivation, could he?

He had to plan this out carefully. He must find a way to solve this problem.

But he could not think of a good way to solve the problem for now. He could not help thinking of Grandmaster Qing Zhu. If only he could freeload on Grandmaster Qing Zhu's WiFi for one more night. No, he could probably complete his cultivation of the Qing Yu Body Forging Technique in just half a night.
